IhE Misses KOllln are two young
and beautiful bellies of South Carolina
They belong to the colored aristocracy
OF that State and are the leaders of fash
ion and society. They have one quail
ity in common with bellies and beauties
in other localities-they Converse,
aud this proclivity has served them the
turn which it has frequently been
known to do in similar cases. Some
time ago correspondent Of the New
York SIN says he had an interview
with the young and beautiful Misses
Rollin. The circumstances arising
from that interview We will let the .Sun
correspondent relate in his own way.
As an instance Of the beauties of legis.
lation under the new regime in South
Carolina, it is both entertaining and
instructive:
They told me many interesting things.
all of which were duly printed BY their
consent, and excited much comment. Cn-
fortunately the printed letter got back
here sooner than they expected, and as il
reflected upon certain of the powers that
be, and as they were to great extent un-
der obligation 20 at least one of those same
powers" they hastened TO indite the fol-
lowing eplstle denying their assertions at
the interview, and begging that the ''pow-
err aforesaid would entertain better opin-
ion ofthem.
LOOK UPON THIS PICTURE.

Gen. +. j. Moses, Jr.,
SIR: Please TO do Us the Justice 10 dis
credit the letter written by the reporter Of
the New York Sun No such conversa-
tion, we faithfully assure you, was held
during the evening. True, you have acted
in most discOurteous and unkind manner
toward Us, but we have never resorted to
this method of allaying our disappoint-
ment- by entertaining strangers at your ex-
pensc. While we believe that every one
understands that il was all written for sem
sation, yet at the solicitation Of friend
We write this, as he tells US you believe it
all, and justly feel indignant Should the
papers here make much ado about il, il
shall be contradicted through the papers.
Very respectfully etc,
l.. and X. ROLLIN,
This denial was duly circulated, and as
/ had but one disinterested witness TO the
interview, and he in New York, 1t will
readily be perceived that was placed IN
an awkward position. Providence has
favored me, however, for this NOR ming /
received the following, which speaks for
itself, and tells deal as to how the old
thing works in South Carolina. r.
AND THEN UPON THIS.
Columbia, s. c.. April Ii. is7i.
DEAR SIR:-Ilow could you 90 and pub
lish Il that conversation We had at our
house about Speaker Moses, Joe Crews,
Gen. Dennis and others1 We did not
suppose you would have 1t published as
soon as you did. We would not have
cared if you had waited until we got from
Moses certificate for u sum of money we
want. You see we-Ritty and I-have
fixed up kind Of claim for $1,000 we
call 1t a school claim for teaching Gov.
Scott you see, don't like to pay il right
out as it is SO large but we can always
get out of him any small sum we want,
say two or three hundred dollars. lie
gives it TO US out of his contingent fund
or out Of tho military fund. But Noses
has always said he would help us, and we
were expecting to get him 10 give US a
certificate just the same as if the claim
had passed the Legislature and then your
articles appeared in the paper, and we fear
Moses will be SO angry he will not sign
the certificate.
We had to come ont and deny tho con-
versation in order to save ourselves. Cam
not you, in future letter, say you were
mistaken about what we safd about Moses,
and about his being a Jew, and say the
printers got il mixed up, Say it was
Levin, who is always about his office, We
were talking Of when We said that about
Jews. Yours in affection,
LOTTIE and KATE ROLLIN.
