The CONVERSION BoNDs-ANoTHER
RHpoRr OF FRAUDULENT IssUE.-An
Anonymous correspondents for the cor.
reotness OF whose statements we do not
pretend TO pouch, sends the Charleston
Ne,os some interesting points touching
the alleged over-issue ofSthe so.oalled
conversion bonds. The correspondent
Gays:
THE article copied by you from the
Columbia PHOENIX. on Wednesday morn.
ing, is correct, as far as it goes, in its de-
tails OF the conversion bond frauds. But
the amount of converted bonds said to
n issued is. however. under.ststed. The
pdnderers at first thought OF issuing
bonds enough for their purposes under
the Act for the relief Of the Treasury
and the Act for the payment OF interest,
but the ring were assured that it would
be better to use conversion bonds, as it
was understood by investors that thexe
did not increase the debt of the State.
''The ring have admitted to Mr.. Small
ley, OF the Tribune. that the State bond
ed debt now amounts to $l6, 8O5, 900.
The whole of the increase lover s.. 1856 :

the Taxpayers Convention, les. 50, 00O.-

Act above mentioned, issued at that time
but since replaced by conversion bonds)
is in conversion bonds, which the pirates
own that they have issued to the amount
of $4,000, 900.

Some owners Of State stock did ex-
change stock for bonds. By this fraudu-
lent sale Of conversion bonds the legiti.
mate bonds received il exchange for
stock have been depreciated from eighty
to twenty-six aud half, with the pros
pect of entire reputation. Here is an
evident wrong done to such legitimate
holder, for which there must be q remedy
either in law or equity. II the holder
of such legitimate bonds is citizen of
another State, could not suit bo
brought by him in the United States
Court to restrain the Governor, Trea-
surcr and Comptroller from recognizing
tue fraudulent bonds as pnrt of the
State debt?
"It would probably be useless to ap-
peal to the State courts. Such Su-
creme Court as We have would do but
little to aid the Taxpayers in maintain
,ng their rights"

Par,<e=,s statement.

tg-<ENf tf3,i k.oT&e='o statement. ss.sN lt
The Union. of yesterday, contains q
statement. furnished by iTreasurer
Parker, OF the State debt. To this sse
appended some cool remarks by this
bold adventurer. The Uaion furtbfr
says that it understands that q oom mis-
tee consisting OF Judge Orr. Joseph
Daniel Pope, Esq. A. G.. Breni3er, Esq,
Cashier of the Central National Bank,
land j. NJ. Baxter. Esq. have verified
this statement. This. We learn. is not
true. inasmnoh az we,were told that on
yesterday morning tho saii committee
had not completed their labors. The
statement y, in the Upign is, therefore. to
say the least;r premature. However that
may be, we have to remark that the
committee have undertaken very DELI
cate and trying work. They set out, We
do not doubt. with the best intentions.
But they are sailing on wide and deep
SEE il search Of Lost treasures, and they
will have to use all their acumen and
oil their visiisuue to prevent even their
own eyes from deceiving them. We
hope they may be successful in their
work, and bring their discoveries of
fraud prominently forward. But We
believe that their efforts. on that line.
will be bootless. Parker's statements
in themselves are reliable only SO far as
shey are confirmed BY other evidence.
This, however, we presume the commit
tee feel, and we hope to find the engineer
hoisted by his own petard. We might
now point out not few deceptive points
IN Parker's statements, but we await
further developments. and shall then
present suoh an analysis of Parker's
statements and such comments upon his
remarks rs may commend themselves to
our mind. We watch and wait.
History tells ns Of King Of Greece
named Nabis, who had novel and orr
ginal method OF getting as much money
as he wanted from his subjects. He had
an image in his palace, Glad in queenly
garments. but having the breast and
arms stuck full of sharp iron spikes.
These spikes were. however. concealed.
When King Nabis wanted to extort
money from his SUBJECTS, he would in
vite them to embrace the image. No
sooner, however, would the victim come
within reach than the image would put
out its arms and squeeze him close to its
breast. This was done by means of ma.
chinery. The victim might struggle,
but he could not get away from the
cruel embrace. He had to remain with
the iron spikes sticking into his flesh
until his agony compelled him to Civ.
i Nabis as much money ae he asked for.
r. We need hardly mako the application
OF this story to our present condition
Scott is Nabis. South Carolina Radical
4 ism is the image. The tax-pay ers are
the victims. The ircn spikes are th,
ways and means that may be tried t.
tprfure the Taxpayers.
liz Let us see to it that Nabis-Scott il
\ 1foiled. Let us keep out of reach of tn,
image. A.word to the wise is sufficient
The question was asked in these co
lpmns if Judge Porter. Mr.. Kimpton'
attorney, was the Porter alleged to hav
been connected with the Swepson Lit
