At the annual meeting OF this Club, in Co.
lumbia, on tho 10th day OF November, 1871, It
was announced that the President, Major
William I. Gary, Of Edge6cld, declined re-.
election In expression OF their regret, and
their earnest appreciation OF the worth and
services Of their retiring President, the So.

The Charleston Courier says:

Our QuCy Is maQlIoSt-
First. To reject the fraud by refusing
to pay one single dollar of principal or
interest OF these illegal issues.
p Second. To prevent, by application to
injunction by the courts, any further
capacity for mischief.
Third. To bring the perpetrators to
Justice, and subject them to the punish
ment which they have invoked upon
their own heads.
This is the manifest claim of honesty
and right. And in this determination,
all honest men, Of whatever party, must
unite.
Speaking OF the frauds. the Courier
says:
Mr.. Kimpton is the financial agent,
under whose auspices these transactions
have taken place. The whole Financial
Board, however, are equally responsible.
It can scarcely be eaid that they have
been in Ignorance. Mr.. Kimpton, under
the very terms of the Act, was to b..
under their direction aud control. He
had no authority to move without their
sanction. The voice of the public must
hold them equally responsible. They
either assented to these frauds, or have
lstood by and wilfully betrayed their
public trust. There can be no other
alternative. Tho words of the ACT are
plain and exploit: 1.-THE Governor, the
Attorney General and the Treasurer are
hereby authorized to appoint. under u
commission signed by them, some re-
sponsible bank, or banker, in the oity of
New York, to act as Financial Agent OF
the State, to be subject to their direction
and control"

The MILITARY PRISONERS. our
last report, the following persons have
been arrested: J It. O'Farrell, A. Springs
Withers, e. II. Stewart, Josiah Martin.
VIM. Thomasson, VIM. Lowry, Bishop
Sandifer, Evans Murphy, WIN. Montgo-
merry. Mr.. O'Farrell was discharged on
the same day Of his arrest; and of those
whose names which have heretofore been
published, o. G. Beamguard has been
released on bail, and the following have
been paroled for various periods. to re-
port to the officer in charge of the prison
at the expiration of their respective pa
roles: John Rattaree, r. A. Black, Ire
dell Jones. John Ramsey. Elias Ramsey,
r. X. Seahorn, j. w. Dobson. Samuel
Ramsey. E. r. Bell, j. p Herndon,
VIM. Moss, r. T. May, H. H. Sherer,
s. J. Harvey. A public examination Of
the prisoners will not be had here pre-
vious to the sitting Of the Circuit Court
in Columbia. Each prisoner will be
aerved with copy of tho charge or
charges made against him, which papers
are nov being made out as rapidly as
possible, and will Mt once be given to
the men in custody, which will enable
them to make preparation for their ap-
preaching trials.
In regard to tho removal of the pri-
soners to Columbia, on application to
the authorities for information upon the
subject, we learn that it has not yet been
definitely decided when the transfer will
be mnde. None viii be removed to Co.
lnmbia unless indictments mny be found
against them, Of which they will receive
due notice, and their removal will not
then take place until the cases are ready
to come up for trial.
A story in circulation to the effect that
the prisoners Are to be taken to Colum.
bia hand.cuffed, has, we are assured by
Col Merrill, no foundation whatever.

the Union objects to our quotations from
