After twenty year.. experience IN the manuIac-
ture OF stoves, we became convinced, some six
years since, that vast amount of money was
being expended by the people Of this country, in
buying cheap and almost worthless stoves, large
portion Of which was wasted; and that true
economy consisted in buving the best stoves that
could be made notwithstanding the price was
higher. With this view we proceeded to CEN
struct the American Cooking Stove, and spared
no pains or expense to make II the best and mos,
perfect stove that could be made. And we have
experimental with 1t, and carefully watched its
operation isr the last six years. and when an i'm
provement suggested ITSELF we have at once
adopted it, and have several of Il csc improve
ments secured by letters patent In this manner,
we do not hesitate to say, we have brought 1t to
higher state OF perfection than has heretofore been
attained In cooking stoves. The recent improve
ments in this stove has added largely to Its con-
venience and effectiveness, In all the varieties of
stoves we manufacture, we study usefulness, du-
rabiiity. convenience and economy in operation.
rather than cheapness in price, and in so doing We
are satisfied we study the interest Of those pur-
chasing our stoves

Veto Of the Bill to Rsduce Bonds.

Governor Scott, in vetoing the bill
which originated in the Senate, entitled
An Act to fix the amounts Of official
bonds .ef certain public officers, and to
impose penalties on emhezzlcment,' very
senSibly haS'an eye to the public, funds,
and the credit of the State, both OF which
ne Of course is largely Interested in.
These being important features must be-
guarded at every point, for without funds
and with shaking credit, the whole bogus
concern would go by the board. The
newly appointed therefore, mot, having
been tried" reconstructedly, and with a
knowledge Of their natural proclivities
for appropriating the goods of others,
this wise Governor, though he "be!ieves
them to be true men," that is true to
their proclivities aforesaid, as we take it,
iscfraid to trust them with too much Ii.
cerSe, and comes down on this bill, much
t, the dismay Of the pet lambs, or more
properly black sheep. "The peculiar
c rcunstances in which they are placed
d.mand that they should furnish the am-
pest guarantees of their official recti-
tnde." Just so, Governor, taking all the
circumstances together, and there are a
great many, they are very decidedly Pc
culiar, besides suspicious. We have
doubts whether any mothers son OF
them ought to be trusted further than a
bull can be tossed by its horns. Guard
the funds by all means, or what is left
may be very little; these carpet.baeger'
are peculiar set of devils. The Gov
ernor approves the section guarding
against embezzlement.

that it was from Bastrop countv. and

We believe the enterprlsing firm to whom

says:

Tha Einances.

The Columbia correspondent of the
Charleston Courier, in reference to the
finances, says:
''The demoralzation which prevailed
yesterday in the radical wing of the Leg
iSla;ure, in consequence of the veto of
Gov. Scott of the bill to reduce the bonds
of public officers, was intensified to-day
by the divnlgence of fact that has we'll
nigh occaSionad panic-no money can
be borrowed to pay the expenses OF the
General Assembly and keep the machl-
merry of State government in motion.
And this is in the teeth of the bill author
izing Governor Scott to negotiate loan
of $l25,OO0, which was hurried to
its conSummation by the legislative
creS who were ravenors for their per
diem and mileage. x Even the
hope of loan of s25, ,00O for sixty days,
which had been held out by a certain
banking firm in your city, backed up by
y. j. Robertson, has vanished into the
air by the withdrawal Of that Senatorial
speculator. 4 reaction has all eady ia
ken place in favor of conservative poll

Cain is calculated to make the blood

all right on the great wash day, which
will as surely come as there is God in

ation Of the State pushed to extremties
by the whites, are preparing for colt
sion with the whites that every phnia-
ton has its captaih-and that 50,eno ne
groes are armed and prepared for action
at moments notice" These assertions
are confirmed by the statements of dele
gates from all quarters of the State in the
late Democratic Convention at Columbia.
