November 18th. A sleet and storm

the whole country from the Rocky mountains

change in the existing government is expected.

going over to the revoutionists "A 7ri-
bune dispatch from South Carolina confirms
the reports of fraudulent issues of South
Carolina bonds. The Governor charges the
Treasurer with a fraudulent issue of bonds,
or rather of reselng bonds which had al
ready been converted into new bonds. The
State Treasurer and financial officers deny
this, and say the Governor is misinformed.
The result of the matter is that the State
Treasury is empty and the credit of the
State below par. The people of Mexico
hardly know their own rulers; revolution is
spreading; Juarez has twice asked Congress
for extraordinary powers, but that body hes
itates. Nothing better can be expected from
