SOUTH CAROLINA.
A Radical Governor Brought 10 his Senses
BY Tax Payers.

CHARLEsTOE, May 1.-THE feature
of yesterdays dOiugs at Columbia
was the formal interview of the Com
mittee Of Eleven, from the Tax Pay
ers' Convention, with Governor Scott.
The committee said they had come,
not as partisans, but as citizens Of the
State, to consult and cooperate with
the Governor in bringing about bet
ter condition of affairs in South Caro-
lima.
The Governor received the Commit
tee most cordially, and assured them
Of the assistance and cooperation, not
only of himself, but Of all the State
officers in satisfying the public mind
that the reports Of financial irregu-
larities were without foundation.
A long and full discussion about
taxation ensUed, the Governor prom
ising to extend the time for collecting
next November until the following
March, in all cases where difficulty
was found in making earlier pay
ments.
The Committee, on behalf Of the
Convention pledged its influence to
maintain peace and good order, and
the Governor promised to appoint
none but good men to Office. The in
tervieW lasted four hours, and was
Of the most pleasant and satisfactory
character. In the Convention, the
most important business was the in
PRODUCTION of resolutions opposing re-
pUdiatiOn and in favor Of maintaining
the organization Of the Convention.
The President and Executive Com
mittee have power to convene the
same at any time. The Executive
Committee were made permanent and
