FIRE AT EDERHART.-News of the de-
struction by fire of the International mill
at Eberhart was received here on Sunday
by private Telegraph dispatch. The
White Pine News of Saturday contains
the following brief notice of the fire:
b The whistle of the mill was blown, as
usual, five minutes of 6 O'Clock this
morning, when it was discovered that the
mill was on fire i'll the southeast end.
The fire spead rapidly. The mill was
laid in ashes in short time. The re-
Penthouse and carpenter shop were also
destroyed. The fire communicated to
the tramway, but was at once put out,
and no serious damage was done. The
mill was G0-stamp mill, owned by the
Eberhart & Aurora Co. Qimited), and
was built about two years ago, at cost
of $3.50, 600. 1t was as fine and complete
a mill as there was in the State. The fire
is supposed to have originated from the
dry Kiln. Loss about $3.50, 900. We were
unable to ascertain whether there was all
insurance on the mill or not.

The attempts Of self styled "indepen

The attempts OF self styled "indepen-
dent papers to give an air of impor-
tance to the Louisville Convention are
rather amusing. Claiming to be indie
pendent, one might expect that fairness
would be shown to each Of the political
parties; but such is not the case. Even
In the matter of news items their politi-
cal bias is plainly shown. A San Fran
cisco exchange which flaunts independent
eolors, yet never allows an opportunity
to stab the Democracy to go unimproved,
gives IN account of Straight-out Dem
ocratc meeting in San Francisco, refers
IN Mandatory terms to the - old-line Dem
ats as = the men who have ever con-
,entiously upheld the principles of
II party" and calls them divers and
sundry pet names. The paper referred
to says delegates to the Louisville Con-
vention were chosen, a full State Central
Committee was appointed, and instructed
to name an Electoral ticket, but the
strangest part Of the story is that no
names were given-saye and excepting
that Of 3. ]. Bayard, of New Jersey, to
whom proxies were sent authorizing him
to cast the votes of California in the
Louisville Convention. We would ask
no stronger proof Of the weakness of
the Straight-out Democratic movement in
California than the lame attempt to give
importance to meeting of the person.
mel OF which the paper is unable to OBJ
tain any information. Judging the Louis
vile movement by the course of the in
dependent press in regard to the recent
meeting in San Francisco, it will prove
anything but potent, although the tele-
graph has given the movement red hot
appearance. The course of the indepen-
dent and Republican press on the Louis
vile movement shows that they feel no
certainty of success in November, and in
this connection We quote as follows from
aspeech OF Horace Greeley at Bridge
port, Conn.,, on the evening of the 2Sth
ultimo:
Allow ME to make single remark on
the great struggle now going on i'll your
country-strategy in politics is the trib-
ute which craft pays to strength; the
wolf skin proving too short, the fox S
tail is pressed into service to piece it out
you see at this day great party strug-
Cling to avert defeat by distracting and
breaking up the host which is opposed &c
It. You would not have the Federal Of
hce-holders working so hard to get up d
third ticket if they did not feel sure thai
between the two tickets already in the
field the verdict was against them. The
effort, then, to distract the host on oul
side is confession of dispair-as suct
receive it. The confession remains-tht
despair is not likely to pass away.

m the history of this country. And this Is the
Huit OF the radicalism of the republican party
and republican administration. With all its
resources and the honorable character of the
native white population the State has been
brought within three or four years to the verge
OF bankruptcy. Besides piling up vast and
unnecessary debt in legal form, the carpet-bag
rascals have made fraudulent issue of some
seven millions of dollars in bonds Under the
pretence of converting the bonded debt of the
State, through an act passed for that purpose
seven million two hundred thousand conver-
sion bonds were issued and then these bonds
were hypothecated at ruinous interest to raise
money for other purposes-to meet, in fact,
the extravagance and avaricious greed of car
pet-bag officials. BY this fraudulent use of the
conversion bonds and the ruinous interest paid
for the money borrowed on them the debt of
the State, which Governor Scott said was
nine millions, was run up to nearly sixteen
millions. Such unparalleled rascalty could
not be endured in any of the Northern States
and is only possible in South Carolina through
the support given to carpet-bag radcalism
there by the republican party and government
at Washington.
The New York herald., 1872-08-20
South Carolina Finances and Carpet
bag Rule.


Of all the revolutions, political, social and
financial in this country and in the several
States since the war commenced, that in the
condition and finances of South Carolina is the
most astonishing and deplorable. Whatever
were the faults of that State anterior to the
war, and however much her secession proclivl-
ties and conduct may be condemned, she was
undoubtedly as honorable in her financial
character and reputation as any country in the
world. Her credit always stood high, and she
was more free from extravaganza and corrup-
ton than almost any State in the Union. But
look at South Carolina now, under carpet-bag
and negro rule. The wretches who have con-
troll of the government and finances have plum
dored the people in the most frightful manner
and have ruined the credit of the State. The
letter of our correspondent at Columbia, pub
lished yesterday, shows state of things almost
incredible and that has no parallel in infamy
