Our Reply.

Some of our friends advise us to with.
draw from the wes we carry on with ou,
small game. We IRE always obliged te
our friends for advice, but we know, in
this case. what we are about. We know
full well with whom we are dealing. Il
We do indulge in episodes now and then
We have our eye upon the great drama
before US.
It is said that
"Cervantes laughed Spain's chivalry away"
With respect to the prevailing deviltry
and rascality, it must be fought in every
legitimate way. We intend to bring to
bear upon it all our resources of argu

ridicule. No milk-and-water policy will
suit. No rose-water philanthropy will
answer. We shall seek to polish on,
darts and then send them home-all in

We notice that the Union takes us at a
disadvantage. It is now making use
even of onr poetry After its political
associates have been engaged for some
time in stealing the peoples money, the
Union now begins to steal our brains.
and using our poetry for the benefit OF
its advertisers, titus makes money again.
Well, let it go on. We have both brains
and poetry to give it, and hard, dry
prose also. We shall give it enough OF
both prose and poetry before we are done
with it. If it will steal our thunder, we
shall give 1t what it cannot steal. viz:

General Hampton, in his excellent ad.
dress on the life and character Of LEE.
compares him to Gustavus Adolphus, the
hero OF Sweden. General Hampton
says that If Frederick the Great, of
Prussia. was right in saying that ''Crom-
we'll did not deserve the surname of
GREAT, which is due only to virtue. T"
Lee, as we'll as the hero of Sweden, on
that SCORE certainly merits the appella-
ton, for they above all other historical
characters were grand in the virtuous
elements OF character. Says Hampton,
"like Gustavus, Lee was modest. brave
and magnanimous; and, like him, too, he
was opposed BY men who waged war on
the savage principles Of Tilly and Wallen.

Railroad.

MR. EDITOR: Being an anxious bui
silent advocate OF the enterprise Of 8
railroad from Augusta to Spartanburg,
we beg to make only fow remarks.
Whilst in Columbia we had the plea.
sure of meeting several gentlemen in.
terested in behalf of road from the
points mentioned. Every delegate, OF
course, was committed to his particular
route, and really much enthusiasm mani.
tested. If we nnderstood the delegates
rightly. the convention called in Colum-
bia was for the ostensible purpose, only
OF securing the route of the road from
Augusta. by way of EdgeAeld Court
house, Laurens, and thence to Spartan
burg. OF course, that convention had
but one idea. and, consequently, agreed
to advertise for charter.
AS regards US. We have but little pre-
ference to routes; but believe the Fury
Ferry one preferable. We were intro
dnoed to Mr.. s.. P. Boozer, and "heard
him for his cause" He Was delegated
both ~ the railroad meeting and Green
wood citizens to go to Columbia and
confer with the accredited parties to the
convention, held on the 10th ult As
we understood him. his purity is prepared
for action, and wants naupht but An.
gusta cooperation and the charter. His
hackers are the strongest men in Abbe.
vile and Edgefie1d, viz: Taggart. Rev
nolds, Hearste, Ohiles, Bradleys, Perrin.
Sloan, Elmore, McNeill, Blakes, Merri-
man, Rykards, Tolberts. Jennings,
Parks, Merriwether. Dorm, Jordans and
hosts Of others. If these men are in
earnest, we fear Augusta will sleep over
its interests, unless it enters fully into
the spirit Of the enterprise.
By the way, Mr.. Boozer spoke yery an
conragingly Of the sale OF the Green.
Vile and Columbia Railroad to the
South Carolina Railroad, and thought
the sale good thing for both parties.
He thinks, in time, the South Carolina
Road will extend che Laurens branch to
dreenville. and open q road from Aiken
to Greenwood, thereby having two lines
to Charleston with but little cost.
The reader, by reference, will SEQ that
one route connects with the Blue Ridge,
by way OF Greenwood, Aiken, and direct
to Charleston. The other connects with
the Air Line at Greenville, by way of
Laurens, Newberry, Columbia, and
thence to Charleston. He fears Au-
gusta will sleep con post" and be court
martialed for stupidity. and begs it to
act promptly with the Fury Ferry en-
terprise. IT.

The correspondent of the Charleston
Ne'os writes as follows relative to the
Legislature:
One Of the first bills to be introduced
(probably next Tuesday by suspension
OF the ruies) will provide for transfer
OF the place OF deposit of the State funds
from Hardy Solomon's bank to the Ca
rollna National Bank, and perhaps one
other, and radical change in the form
of deposits. It will be ordered that
County Treasurers and others receiving
State funds shall, on the 10Th of each
month, transmit the same, not to the
State Treasurer, as at present, bot direct
to the bank, WHICH will receipt therefor
IN triplioste-one copy going to the de-.
posltor, another to the Treasurer, and
the third to the Oomptroller-G General.
1t will be further ordered that these
funds shall not be drawn upon, except
Tor specific purposes, expressed by ap-
propriations. and then upon the warrant
or the State Treasurer, without reouir.
ing, as at present, the counter-siRnature
OF the Governor. The intent of this ao.
ton is perfectly apparent. It is part
OF the plan of the Radical majority, al
ready announced, to keep the State
money within the Slate" The Legisla-
ture want to repudiate, at least to the
extent of refusing to pay interest, and
they think they can do so only by tax.
ing the control of the Suites income out
OF the hands of the State officials, and
holding the State funds, subject only to
their own specific appropriations.
AN issue is expected, very early in the
session, between the Governor and the
Legislature, which will be provoked as
follows: The message proposes, among
It's other recommendations for retrencb.
ment, gradual reduction, after 8 certain
number of days in session, OF the per
diem allowance of the members of the
Legislature, OH the principle that the
sessions are now unnecessarily prolong-
ed for the simple purpose of getting six
dollars per day. 1t is needless to say
that this suggestion will certainly not be
complied With; but it is reported that
the Legislature will not only disregard
the Recommendation, but will retaliate
by resolving to hold perpetual session.
Another quarrel will grow out Of the
statement in the message that the LIE.
glslature's expenses for last session we're
S50O,OOO. The reply Of the Legislature
TO Governor Scott upon this point will
be, in effect, that the appropriation for
the legislative expenses was only $780,
OOO; that they tried to get another ap-
preparation of 1886. 900 passed, but it
was vetoed and the veto sustained. and
that if the Governor has expended
$500, 600 in payment of legislative bills,
he has done 80 without tho warrant of
law, and has thus proven himself guilty
of fraud.

WV coONS'o A0tS0f.VefY OOOls
Gov. SCOTT. in replying to numerous
letters received in regard to the post
Eponement Of the time for the payment
OF taxes, writes a letter which records
his shame. We yield to no man in our
respect for law and authority. But this
feeling shall not prevent us from proper
ly characterizing the conduct of the man
who has brought into contempt the Office
he holds. ,Thegist Of the matter Is this,
that he now discovers! that he never had
the right to make the promise hs did,
and that it is not in his power to inter
fere at all in the premises. But this is
not all; he must needs add insult, or at
tempted insult to injury, and seeks to
place the responsibility for the depreoi-
ated so-called bonds of the State upon
the press and the individuals who have
dared to talk Of ''rspudiationp Does
Gov. Scott think that the people of this
State are fools as well as victims ready
for slaughter9 Does he suppose that
there is any doubt in the minds of
honest people as to where the response
bility rests for the States empty Trea-
spry and the States lost credit. We re-
pel the slander that he seeks to attach.
The arrow, coming from an arm paisied
with corruption, falls harmless at the
feet of these against whom it is aimed.
We do more. We take it up and drive il
home with all the force of indignant re-
sentiment. and say to him and his asso-
ciates in crime, "You are the n,en-false.
corrupt servants Of the people as you
are." This letter of Scott has fixed
him-if he were not fixed before. He
stands, now, self pilloried before all the
State. There We leave him for the pre-.
sent.
