Who are the members of the Republi-
can Printing Company? Under the
auspic es and in the name of this COM
pany, the State has been swindIed out
OF thousands. Even Governor Scott

drawn upon the orders of the presiding
officers of the two houses, during the
last session, for current printing, amounts
to S68, ,904 90. In addition to this large
sum. $4,000 were appropriated for our

In addition to these expenditures, the sum

SIR In reply to your Communication of this
date, have to say that on my return from the
North on the 14th Of iast September, found
II quantity OF coal delivered in the Asylum
yard. Knowing that had given tho Steward
no orders for the purchase of coal. sont for
that officer and Inquired Of him by what uu-
thority ho purchased tho coal. The Stewa rd
informed me that he did not make the pur.
chase, aud WAS entirely ignorant OF tho trans
action, except that Tom Harper's teams had
delivered tho coal; upon what authority he
did not know.
In my monthly report to the Board of Re-
gents. on tho 9th Of Septem Dor, I called tho
attention of the Board TO tho matter in the
following language, which l copy from my re-
port OF that date:
II should like also to have my authority nd

may know what my powers and responsible
tics in this connection arc. ask for this from
tho fact that supplies arc often sent to tho in
stitution without my knowledge. ask tho
Steward by what authority ho made the pur
chasos. aud his reply il, did not mako the
purchase, aid know nothing about it. What
moro directly ailudo to in this report is wood
and coal. On my return from tho North 1
found quantity of coal delivered ut tho Asy-
lum. knew l had given no order for tho
purchase Of coal, and asked the Steward about
it and it turned out that he ia I'd ignorant OF

This report developed the fact that Messrs.
Taylor and Crews had furnished the coal
these gentlemen claiming that they had bcor,
appointed by the Board committee 10 fur
nish tho institution with coal. The bills for
freight wero presented in the namo OF the
South Carolina Railroad Company, and tho
bill for the coal (100 tons) was rendered 10 the
name Of Mr.. Crews, aud were approved and
ordered paid by majority Of tho Board,
declining to approve the accounts, or to be-
come in any way responsible for tho transac.
ton.
AS to tho quantity OF coal consumed per
month, am unable to answer that question.
The coal furnished by Messrs. Crews aud
Taylor is exhausted.
For further information on this subject.
refer you to Messrs. Crews and Taylor. who
alono are responsible, and who will, doubtless
give you all the Information you may desire i'm
tho matter. Very respectfully,

On the confederation OF the bill to
abolish the Office of Land Com missioner,
the iOolumbia correspondent of the
Charleston Ne,0s tells us that Nash
made short and sensible speech in ia
yor of abolishing tho Office. Nash is
thus reported:
"He said he had voted for the esta-
blishment of the Office because he be-
lieved it would be means Of furnishing
the poor people of Iris race with homes
and the means OF making an honest
living; but iu this, Rs in many other
things, the rascals aud adventurers, who
bad come down here in the wake of the
army, had got possession, had plunged
their hands up to the very arm-pits in
the public purse, and had perverted
whnt was meant as public benefit into
on instrument of private plunder. In
the years Immediately following the war
it had only been necessary 10 say to the
poor, ignorant colored men Of the
South. that man was Republican to
secure their support of him, and these
scOundrels had. by working upon the
credulity of the oolored people, climbed
into high places. and had then betrayed
the colored men and plundered and in
suited the people, until it was seen that
these white Republicans conld steal AZ
fast as anybody else. It was said that
negro governments were O failure; that
tho whole system of reconstruction was
failure, and that the negro had shown
himself unworthy of the boon of free.
dom and political equality that had been
conferred upon him; but ho declared
that the negroes had been betrayed, had
been outraged aAo ,old out by the white
scoundrels who had aocked to the South,

advanced to third reading, with an
amendment proposed by MIR. White

sioner.'"
This is sensible. and if tho speech was
also short, SO much tho better. We are
ready to commend everything sensible
that is uttered in the Legislature. This,
however, we NAV remark, as respects all
this legislative talking: What we want Of
Nash & Go. is some strong, definite,
practical action. II he is in earnest, he
will go to work and call the ring to JUS
tico. But we huvo observed that thus
far Nash's action is confined to the Land
Commission business. That is good
game, but there is still better game
ahead. Let him strike tho snake on tho
head aud net on it's tail. Nash is very
sensible when ho speaks OF "thc raacals
