The condition of thin State in without parallel to tho history of America. It is governed by thieves, pickpockets, and! penitentiary convicts from top to bottom. Until some measure of relief is adopted, the star on our flag representing South Carolina may as well have a black patch ! ■over its face, or else bo entirely punched out. The problem here cannot be dodged I forever by the American people. It will lmvo to be met some time, uud the longer put off the more difficult of solution it will become. Either the Government hero— organized and administered by thieves who are kept in position by the most densely ignorant class of men who ever saw a bal lot—must he disowned and overthrown by the American people, or supported. The issue forces itself upon us and cannot be forever dodged. Moms lately had occasion to raise $6,000 to help one of his newspaper organs, which von in financial distress. The .State Treas ury was empty, ns usual, so Hoses hud to look to other sources. He hit upon the plan of Appointing uu ignorant negro Tax Collector for Orangeburg county. After this youthful Tax Collector hud gathered ; up about the requisite urnonnt, Hose# gave j one Hambright an order for it. The j young, black, and altogether ignorant Tax; Collector thought, of course, that an order! from the Governor was us good us the mon ey, and so cashed the order, and returned It to the State Treasurer as a voucher. The Treasurer would not take it, and the boy was turned out of office, having accom plished his mission. His bond, of course, is worthless, like most of the bonds execu ted in this Htnte, and TrtE Taxpayers lost; the money. This is the transaction for which ths Governor was indicted in Oruugcbnrg county, And was the occasion of his calling out the negro militia to prevent arrest. He had tho Indictment quashed in dee time, the Judge holding that the Govern or could not bo arrested for any crime un til after he had been impeached by the Legislature! In talking with a State official yester day, connected with tho Exooutivo De partment, I oxpivtwK'd surprise that a Gov ernor should deliberately take 86,009 in a lump of the people's money to support one of his orgies. The official was equally Swrprhwd that I should be surprised. “Why," said he, •‘we have to support our party papers or i: boy could not live. That has been the asti-m since the war. Oue year the pa pers-got over a quarter of a million of dol >rs. We aro obliged to do that to sup port them.” The coolness of this observation was re ireahing, but it is iu strict keening with the policy of She Government. Suppose Gov. Alien slamld draw upon the tax collector of Hamilton county for $(1,000 of State funds, to be paid to "liie editor of a Democratic “organ" for supporting the party ? And yet Moses who has done this, not to speak of a Hundred things that aro worse, is a candidate for re-clectiou, with every prospect of endorsement by his party. AS OtUNOKlllinu OFFICIAL. At HcocapiUl yesterday I met a Trial Justice from Orangeburg, an officer who pe*frms the samojdutios as a Justice of! the Peace in other States. 110 is ns black as a tar bin -t, flat nose, thick lips, and with about as much intelligence in his faco as one would observe iu a dead mackerel. This being a specimen of South Carolina! offieude, a man who daily adjudioub s pro- 1 perty rights among the people, and t trus ; criminals loose, or sends them to jail, as he! likes, 5 tried to sound him as to the depth i of his information. It was a hard task. “Tell me," I said, “who the eolorod peo ple, of your section will support for Gov ernor f” “Dey is 'bout all for Hoses, sail." “Why are they for Hoses ?” “ ’Cause we regard him as a straight-out. 'Publican, au' do friend oi do colored inau." “Wasu'Aheiu SOWN trouble in your cmiuty a short time ago V" •Yes, salt. Tho Democrats tried to strio- o. game or* him, but the Judge he | H/jiuuhtd the paperes again him. 1 tell l you I I browed up my hat when do Gobbler ! come loss of this here matter, for l kaowed | 'twaa all did to injure do T’ubhoaUuu ! party. ” •‘You think the Governor did nothing wrong TANARUS” “No, sah; de whole tiling were filed up to hurt him in de party. Hut, Lor’, he’s stonger’en ever." “Where are the sit thousand dollars f” “I do’uo, sah; Goh’ncr got it, ’1 reckon." FAITH Or THU (KitEBWOR. These fellows think that “de Ooli’uer" has as good a right to draw money from the treasury and distribute it around as a private citizen Ims to draw upon his own bank account. If Moses should draw from the treasury, for his private uses, half the money paid in by the taxpayers, the negroes would Udtik H all right and support him as usual. 1 said In a previ ous letter that the negroes of South Caro lina, as a mass, had no more idea of the principle* of oflr Government than the cuttle which fed Upon tho hills of Ohio. Tho more 1 hark into matters here, tho more I am convinced of the truth of that observation although it may look a trifle wild to aotue. From this official I tried to get some information of a llepublicoti meeting to be held in Louisville to-day. Hut although he hud just come from there anil was an interested party, he did not have sense enough to give even tolerable expression to his ideas, if lie had any. The most that I could get out of him was that “do meet in’ was for de interest of de ’Publican pur tj.” “Who will speak 7" I asked. “Sob’rel geuimen, I s’posc.” “1 do’ know, sah; I s’pose do 'Publican party.” Aud this man, ignorant and stupid al most beyond tho power of language to fitly describe, sits in judgment over the rights of tho white property-holders, hears testi mony and intricate points of law discussed, aud gives decisions and pronounces sen tences upon transgressors. Tho judiciary here, from top to bottom, is a shame and a scandal. The Supreme Court is composed of three “Judges,” one a stupid negro, one a carpet-bagger from Maine, and tho other is none other than Meses, the father of the disgraced Govern or. When tho South Carolinians compare their court now with what it used to be they arc ready to cry aloud with anguish. HE I*OOK El) GUILTY. A lawyer from Chester, a heavy negro county, gives mo many incidents illustrat ing tho African's judicial capacity. Not long since a negro offender was brought before u nogro Trial Justice. The. prison er’s offence was, iu fact, no offence at all, uud it was only out of malice that lie was arrested. A white man—a most respecta ble farmer -had given him at Rue cotton seed, and he had taken it without thought but what tho title was good. Hut another negro claimed tire cotton seed, ami had darkey No. I arrested for Stealing. The Trial Justice heard the testimony and sentenced tho poor negro to ten days’ im prisonment and twenty dollars fine, al though there was not a particle of testimo ny upon which lie could reasonably base a conviction. It happened tho Circuit Court was in session, nud tho Judge was informed that au innocent man was in jail. He had tho Justioe before him iu tiiiurt, and inquired for tho testimony, which tho law declares shall be reduced to writing. “I hain’t got any,” said tho blnek Jus tico. “I don’t do no wrintin’ iu my court. I keeps it all iu my head.” "What testimony did you hate against this man ?” demanded tho Judge. Ho could not gite any. “Then Why did ytfu convict him ?” tho Judge asked. “ 'Cause, sah, I noticed him close,- and he looked guilty.” “Yoti Convicted hfitf, then, off his looks and not on the evidence ?" “Yes, sah, he looked guilty and I found him guilty" The black judicial officer w-as thereupon given some advice as to how to conduct his “court," and departed with a bow and a “Yes,- sah.'* nice orffriAi*. t asked tho lawyer ns to tho other Ches ter oouuty officials. Iff informed two that tho comity was represented in the Legis laturo by three members, all negroes. One ! of them wns a preacher, whose peculiarity was that, ho would never take more for his vote than Alt). Ho did not think it was wrotsjr to sell his vote, provided lie did not. exact an exorbitant price. Ten dollars lie conceived to be tho fair f, me. “This thing of get tin a hundred dollars for a vote,” ho says, “is all wrong? ten dollars is as much ius it is wof." The County Commissioners of Chester, T was told, where two ignorant negroes and one dr inketr Wxfumui. Tho juries iu tho courts aro usually composed of four or fivo white men and seven or eight negroes. As jurymen, the negroes all seem desirous to ilo right, but the trouble is their ignor ance. In matters of account involving written doomm nts and figures, how is a negro 1 to bo of s 'rviee as a juryman when In* does not know a figm*c from an excla mation point ? Another difficult* experi enced with them as jurymen is the constant effort required to keep them awake. In hot wi other, under tho southing influences of testimony and argument, of which they tinderstau 1 nothing, or at brat but tittle, the African disposition to relapse into n doze is almost irresistible. In tho courts here the testimony and argument are fre quently interrupted by the Judge piiic.ritig the Shoiiff to'“vftdco up tliosb jurymen."' If tho Judgo has not had his dinner, or if, i having it, it- sits heavily on his stomach j and he feels generally annoyed, In' some times breaks out. after a short stock of pa tience is exhausted: “Mr. Sheriff, wake up them niggers !■’ To us outsiders nH this may be very amusing, but to the people if South Caro lina it is a sad reality, amfthe humor is lost iu the gravity of tho situation. They look iat each other blankly, and say: “When and how is this joint migu of ignonuice and r.i.c.ility to end V (grow the Vlekdiurg Hir.lil) AN ANGLO AFRICAN COW HIDED. A Xalln Otrlnr I.*rrk|M A bag ll*rkr who Wonlel lu bo Callao! Mlalar. Mr. Ferrier is a member of the legal fraternity, so to speak. He practices lie fore the Police Court and at the bur of the African saloon adjoining the Post Office. Mr. Ferrier is an Englishman by birth, an American by adoption, and an African by a direct line of descent. Mr. Ferrier is also an orator, as it were. He blends most beautifully aud harmoniously in his speech the African accent with the English pronunciation, aud at the same time haa the inexpressibly charming and delightful drawl of the Fifth avenue swell. We do not know Mr. Ferrier’s front name but we should take it to be Charles Augus tas WiUiain Henry. When Mr. Ferrier concluded to honor the historic city with his presence and did locate among the heutkeus, as it wuie, the negro population congratulated themselves upon the acces sion to the oity aud to their ranks. Mr. Ferrier was a great man. Words rolled from his mouth like hot battercukos from a griddle. When he opened his lips to breutho Vicksburg darkies of shallow ac complishments separated their lips and permitted their under jaws to drop half way down to their knees. They attended tho seances at the Police Court to hear the gushing eloquence of the Englishman who could say “good guftcioils,” “caun’t,” etc., aud while he spoke they listened in mute admirution but—alas 1 There is not ulwuvs that nnnnimity in this world that one might desire, and though one may lie great with the many, he may yet be small with the few. Human was a great man. He revealed in great ness, but ho told a liepubliuan friend of his one day confidentially that all his greatness availed him nothing So long as Mordeeai sat at tho King’s gate. There lived in Vicksburg a man named Bowman a colored man, with the prefix of mallory aud with an oflicial designation of consta ble. When ho met Mr. Ferrier he did not bow down and worship him, just as Tell wouldn't bow down to Gussier’s cap. Ho merely said to him, “How are you, Ferrier ?" The English gentleman of African decent and American adoption was indignant at being thus addressed by a common "nigger,” and with lofty toss of his bead and a contemptuous curl of his scornful lip lie answered: "Mr. Ferrier, sir, if you please. ” That settled it. Con stable Bowman, the common nigger was red hot. lie wasn't going to call any nig ger mister unless he wanted to, lie wasn’t. So he went away and armed himself with u cow-hide, and w hen he met Ferrier again he demanded “satisfaction." By way of emphasis he threw in a few licks on Fer rier s buck, and kept up tile excitement until friends interfered and separated them. Ferrier will probably reappear in the Police Court this morning in conse quence. Tills is the first ease of collision between a nutivc darkey and a carpet-bug darkey. • - - - FA T FOLKS. lIY M. QUAD. From Our Fir- side Friend. T like fat folks. There's something ! jolly right in tho fm-t of one’s being a great big porpoise, and you never saw n fat man or woman but wlmt wn# good na tured, unless disappointed in love, lofteu wislu-d I stood in Baker's shoes. He j weighs 280, mid when seen coming down the street resemble a sloop under full sail, j When he enters a street car everybody shoves along nt once, and if its crowded two and three men will get up ut once to offer him a seat. Ho is of importance wherever he goes. Jf he sits OB au in quest he influences the jury, and if ho > predicts this weather, people put faith in i aim.

Anil there’s Mrs. Scott, who weighs nearly as much as Baker. When it's a ljot dnv everybody asks after her comfort, and when it's a cold day everybody con gratulates heron being fat. She was made the prosideut of a benevolent society, the treasurer of au art association, and tho “head-man” in a monuments! enterprise, just because she was fat Mid could “fill the Chair” better than any loan woman. If site Went aboard tho ferry boat they al ways placed her iu the centre of the cabin iff the best arm chair aboard, so that she would not careen the craft over, and if forty lean women hung over the railing to starboard Ot port, nothing Wfta ever said about it. Shu liad the biggest tent at camp-meeting, the best place to see the Fourth of July fireworks, and grocers were always Mending her early strawberries and first vegetables. I fell in love with a fat girl oaeo. 1 loved madly, because I was loving 207 pounds of girl. She was amiable, tender hearted, good natured and true, and I think she loved me. We wore to be mar ried in the fall, and should probably have been one of the happiest of husbands, when au accident dashed my prospects. She fell overboard just as we were leaving tile wharf cm a steamboat excursion. ! Three or four sailors plunged after, and] they got a gang plank under her, a cable round her waist and towed her to the! wharf. Thou they rigged a derrick and i lifted her out by sections, but they were so long about it that sho took a severe cold, and the result was death.

By that time he had grown tired sitting still, and was standing on the pew cushion with his back to the pulpit.

Vi akhinutun, August 1, 1874.—The Wur department has received a report of the expedition, under the command of Captain A. E. Bates, which left Camp Bruwu, Wyoming Territory, July 1, for the purpose of punishing the Indians who had been committing depredations in that and the neighboring valley. After several days’ marching he reached the Indian vil lage at Owl Creek Mountains, which con sisted of 112 lodges, placed in a deep ra vine. The Indians opened a sharp Are on the troops as they approached, but without damage, and the troops quickly drove them down through a gulley, where they were crowded to closely together near the lower end that the troops had a splen did chuncu at them, and counted, after the fight seventeen dead bodies almost iu one heap. In about twenty minutes or half an honr at farthest, there was not an Indian in the excepting the dead and numbers of.eliilaren, who were left iu tho lodges. The Indians who escaped had reached the rocks above, where they ojiened a very telling fire ou the troops, killing two men uud wounding three in a very few minutes. THK KKHtTOT OF THE FIGHT was twenty-five Indians known to be killed aud with the usual proportion of four wounded to oneikillod, 100 wouDded. Of i the killed, seventeen were counted in part! of tho village. The othem were left, part j in the village and part on the side of the bluff. Had the Shoshones, who accompa nied the expedition, kept quiet in the first instance and given the commander an opportunity to reconnoitre the ground thoroughly so os to take possession of the commanding points, or had they follow ed Lientcnant Yonug, who received the orders correctly uud attempted to lead them to the attack Captain Bates would have been able to report the most com plete victory one company—lt, Second cavalry—ever achieved, for the ’Captain thinks not half it dozen would have es caped. But owing to the bad conduct of his Indian allies first, and cowardice after wards, lie thinks the troops achieved only about half as much us was intended. To sum up the actions of these Shoshone Indians they betrayed the troops first and deserted them in the fight.
