The Cincinnati Commercial seems to
think that the Ku KIux Of South Caroli-
na are responsible for the thieves, when,
as matter of fact. the thieves are re-
sponsible for the Ku Klux. Both are
certainly bad enough; but. under cover
of suppressing the Ku Klnx. the Ma
tional Administration is dong everything
in its power to strengthen the hands OF
tho thieves. Wo stall not 5:sc--e.aa::. the
Commercials compliment to our candor
hy denying the existence OF the Ku
klux. On that point our record has been
pretty clear. We have missed no ocoa-
sion for assailing, and that in the most
'iireot and practical way, that execrabie
order, and we fatter ourselves that our
efforts have not been wholly without re-
suit. II the Commercial would do half
as much against the thieves of South
Carolina as we have done against tho Ku
Klux, there might be additional results.
But the only thieves who interest the
Commercial are Tammany thieves.

SEEKING FOR A REMEDY.-What to do
with the 'ring" who have depleted the
Treasury of South Carolina, and pro-
cured al issue believed to be fraudulent
of State bonds, is now engaging tho
earnest attention of the unfortunate in
habitants Of that section of country
The Charleston Courier, while insisting
upon repudiation of the fraudulent bonds,
calls on the committee appointed at the
Taxpayers Convention, last summer, to
re-assemble and take the lead in popu-
lar movement such as was engineered by
the committee of seventy in New York
The Charleston Necs urges it's remedy
OF resistance to the tax-gatherers. The
Columbia PHOENIX says, "apply to the
courts for on injunction to arrest the
operations Of the acting authorities. u
In the meantime, the legislative session
ls near at hand, and it appears to be
conceded on all hands that that body
will be controlled by majority of un-
qualified scoundrelism. IF, however, the
Congressional and Executive hand shall
be taken from the throat Of the pros
trate State, there will be found no insu-
pernble difficulty in dealing with the
gentry who arc rItling her pockets.

FIRE IN GREENvrn1E.-Our oorres-

in regard to the FIRE in Greenville, on the
21st inst:
The most disastrous fire that has 90.
CURED in Greenville for many years,
broke out about o'clock, to night, in
the extensive planning, sash, blind and
carpentering establishment of Clino &,
Gibbes, on the river, below the new
bridge, involving complete destruction
OF all the machinery, tools, glass, build
ers' hardware. finished work, ETC.. as
also the buildings-amountingt to loss
OF over $4,000, without insurance. In
the h1ilding, was about $500 worth of
dressed flooring, sash, doors, otc., be.
longing to Captain j. w. eagle; also,
attached to the building, was q saw mill
belonging to Alex. McBee, Esq; loss
about 81 200. No insurance. Tie loss
to Cline & Gibbes is very severe, as they
have several extensive contracts in hand
unfinished. They are energetic and re-.
liable contractors. and the destruction
OF their establishment is q serious loss
to our city.
The fire is no doubt the work of an
incendiary, as the flames burst forth in
an immense volume at some distance
from the stove-the only place in which
fire was kept in the place, and which
MT. Gibtes assuree me was carefully put
out before the place was closed at dark.
Our fire companies were in working
order from the river in good time. aud
worked manfully in saving sheds, lum
her. etc, adjoining the main building.
~hioh was too far gone to save. The
Palmsttoes had an opportunity, and

Speaking Of bond swindlers, the Rich.
mond Enquirer says:
Rnt whenever wa catch these thieves.
and have the evidences of their larceny so
plainly, as in the oase OF this fellow
Scott. and in tine case of Bullock and
others, we should bring them st once to
trial and send them to the penitentiary.
Scott has had an over.issne OF bonds in
his possession to the amount of nearly
$40, 100000. What were his intentions?
Undoubtedly to piuco them on the
market and sell them for whatever they
would bring. The money realized
would go into his own pockets, and the
pockets Of his csrpet-bag friends; and,
before the fraudulent transactions could
be- discovered, they would, like Bullock,
leave the State and tho country, and
South Carolina would have to suffer for
the act OF her agent, or incur the odium
of repudiation. Bring all these fellows
who have learned the witchcraft of trans
mnting crispy paper, printed in many
colored inks, into gold, to jnstice-put
them in the penitentiary, and set them
to work at breaking stone-and the
moral atmosphere will speedily become
more healthy.

"INDIANA JUsr1oR. THE New York
Commercial (Republican) has the follow
ing paragraph in regard to the late case
OF Lynch law in Indiana. The para.
graph is headed Indiana Justice:''
"a few days ago. whole family in
Indiana was put out of existence in the
most brutal manner. Three were killed,
and two are left fatally wounded and
mangled most shockingly. Three me-
grnes were arrested for this crime, and
one of them made confession. The peo-
pie would wait neither for indictment
nor trial. A mob, composed of the best
people of the vicinity, farmers, church
members, 60, proceeded to the Jail,
captured the three prisoners and hung
them to trees near by. The affair was
conducted with terrible calnlness and
order, and fearful warning was given
to other desparadoes who might medi-
tate similar crimes. New York could
spare to Indiana few score of its indis.
Greet citizcns, on whom it would not
lament the execution of such summary
Justice as is noted above"
The Commercial does not call for the
proclamation of martial law and the sus.
pension Of hdbeas corpus. It even says
that sit would not lament the execution
OF suoh summary justice as is noted
above" upon few score of New York
citizens. But South Carolina is not
New York nor Indiana. The mobs in
these enlightened and civilized regions
arc composed of "the best people," OF
"church MEMBERS" and the like, and
being thereby sanotified and made free
from the bondage of the law. are not to
be regarded in the same light as the un-
godly Ku Klux of the Southern States.
Now, il the "three negroes" had been
taken from Southern Jail and hung
without either indictment or trial. We
should not have heard from the New
York Commercial. liberal Republican
though it be, much euloginm of the
actors IN snch scene, even though they
might have claimed justification on the
ground that partisan judges and iurie.
III that section refused to punish suct
criminals. But when that deed is don.
ii Indiana. where judges and jurie,
might have been relied on to punish til.
criminals. we only hear from one lead
ing New York Republican journal that il
IL pity some scores Of New York citizenl
were not treated iu like manner.

A HoRRIBLE TRAGEDY AT LYNN. Mass.
According 70 a special despatch to the
Hera!d, a man by the name OF John G.
Clinton. at Lynn. Mass, was heurd by
some neighbors to be ill-.r.ating his
wife, these people being attracted to the
cottage by the screams OF a woman.
Subsequently the house was observed to
BIZ on FIRE. and three men who we're
living in the neighborhood broke into
the house and found the corpse Of Mrs.
Clinton horribly charred and emaciated.
the flesh falling from the arms aud legs
OF the body as it was being conveyed to
the police station. A little boy, one OF
the family, returning from an evening
school, discovered the house was on fire
and Immediately rushed up stairs to
rescue young brother, when he was
encountered by his father, to whom he
stated the fact and showed him the dead
body OF his mother. The man is believ.
ed to have thrown kerosene lamp at
his wife, the oil saturating her clothing.
and after badly beating her, set her on
fire.

One Smalley, correspondent of the
New York Tribune, has said, in O recent
letter to his paper: "TAe Average aOhite
man Of South Carolina is The poorest speci-
men Of the Caucasian race I haze euer seen
on either side Of the ANantic" The Co.
lumbia Union publishes this letter and
oommends it, saying that "Smalley
writes whereof he knows" Smalley,
whose judgment is at Variance with that
OF the civilized world, adds: "Brutal,
coonrd2y and inconceioably ignorant, he is
Ku Kfur by nature" This statement,
also. the Columbia Union reproduoes,
and says that Smalley "Gno,os t0hereof he
'orites." Now, putting under restraint
the ntrong spirit Of indignant resent
ment with which we have seen this SLAM
der thrown in the faces of the white men
OF South Carolina. We have simply to say
that the fact that Messrs. Smalley and
the Union are allowed to perpetrate their
Joint slanders without oastigation shows
how utterly false is the charge that ''the
average white man Of South Carolina is
q Ku Klux by nature" Let these crea.
tures go unmolested by violence. We
would not have it otherwise. We COM
mend them to the contempt of the men

their own hearts seorete. For the poi
son OF asps is upon their lips and their
