unnumbered lives, and an amount Of suffering

is Invaluable; for, by its timely use. multi
titudes are rescued from premature graves, and

Wholesale Slaughter.

ST. LOUIS, April 26.
A special from Kansas City gives the
details of Che brutal murder of Steven
son Cline and Dutro on the railroad train,
near Holden, OH Wednesday. After the
train stopped four of the mob mounted
the locomotive and guarded the engineer
with drawn revolvsrs. The train was
then surrounded and Cline and Steven
son called out. Cline appeared, and af.
ter some words regarding his connection
with the fraudulent issue of |Cass county
bonds, he was riddled with bullets and
his body thrown by the side of tho track.
Several of the crowd emptied their re-
volvers into his mangled body.
Stevenson wasin the baggage Gar and
barred tho doors against the mob, but the
mob broke in the doors with log OF
wood and poured a volley INTO the Judge,
killing him instantly. Stey6hsons body
was dragged out and laid beside that ot
Cline. ~ -
Dutro, who was ina passenger car, was
mortally wounded. The train was then
allowed to start, but was signalled to
stop. Thee ying man, Dutro, was then
dragged from the coach and thrown down
near the dead bodies of Cline and Ste
venson. - ~
A report reached Kansas City astnight
that Judge Forsyth, another Of the Conn
ty Justices, had been shot and his body
hanged to attee. Great excitement pre-

Negro Debts.

.Thesupreme Court Of the United States
has lately decided, (says the Daily Uniom)
that bonds or notes given for slaves be-
fore emancipation are valid obligations.
The Supreme Court of+h.s State over
twelve months ago, in an elaborate opin-
ion pronunced by Chief Justice Moses,
made the same decision. The opinion at
the time was regarded able and learned,
and covered beyond question all the legal
points in the case. The views expressed
in the judgment of the Supreme Court
of the United States, accord in great
measure with those upon which our court
based its decision. If any doubts exists,
they are now settled by the determine
ton of the court of last resort on all con-
stitutional questions.
The differing judges in the State Court
in the above question, founded their
opinion upon the ground that the debts
were invalidated by extraordinary meas
ures, resorted to by the United States
Government, OH accounted the rebellion.

Let the Certificates be issued.

Read the following extract from the
Columbia correspondent Of the Charles
ton Neaus, under date of the 24th:
tits proposed, in order to relieve the
pressing needs of the Insane Asylum, to
issue certificates of indebtedness, at sew
en- per cent interest, to procure groce-
ries, &c. Superintendent Ensor had q
long interview to-day with the Governor,
who said there was no hope Of getting
any money through the Treasurer 80 far
as his influence went, and that he be-
lieved the above scheme was the only
means of preventing the dire calamity Of
sending the lunatics back to the coun-
ties.
A good idea. Issue the certificates Of
Indebtedness, or resort to any other pos,
sible means of raising. funds 10 prevent
these poor people from suffering. But
when these funds are provided, let it be
appropriated for the benefit of the Luna
tics, and not the carpet. baggers.

A.bou, the Taxes.

People are naturally asking what is to
be the end of the terrible tangle in which
the Ring have involved the finances Of
South Carolina. The charges of whole
sale fraud last year in the issue of bonds
(says tho Charleston Ne,cs) while giving
alRast death ana f. feIaRsaaaat the facial &
hibit Of the debt, showing the aggregate
issue Of bonds outstanding to be fifteen
or sixteen millions of dollars. Enor.
nous and outrageous Us it was far less
than many had feared and predicted, and
it was accepted by the Legislature and
by the public as the most trustworthy
statement that could be had of our bond
led debt. The Legislature proceeded to
pass series OF tax measures, which for
harshness, rigor and fragrant injustice
are withouta a parallel in the history Of
American legislation. 1t was urged that
the taxes imposed were absolutely re-
quired to pay the current expenses OF
the State, and to meet the interest on the
public debt. The collection of these
taxes is now being enforced under PEN
allies that in many cases amount to con-
fiscation. Now the people want to know
what is to become of the money?
1t is bootless now to inquire how the
millions already wrung from the tax
payers have been squandered and stolen
by the infamous Ring, whose ruleis the
blighting incubus that rests upon the
fortunes of South Carolina. We must
yrapple now with the questions which
concern ourpresent and future condition.
The people have right TO know how it
is that while the taxes are pouring in
from every county in the State, the claims
of the public creditors of all classes are
contemptuously disregarded. They have
right to know why the boasted cham-
pions of popular education are allowing
our public schools to close for want OF
the funds for their support. They have
a right to know why the existence of the
Lunatic Asylum, the Asylum for the
Deaf, Dumb and Blind-aye, and of the
.Penitentiary itself-is imporilled by the
same shameful neglect. They have a
right to know why the Ring, who have
prated so often and so anxiously about
sustaining the State credit, should, with
the whole machinery of government dt
their control, allow even the interest on
the huge debt, %hich they themselves
have piled up, to remain, quarter after
quarter, unpaid and unprovided for.
In plain English, do the Ring intend
to steal and squander the proceeds Of the
very taxes which were laid for the pur-
pose Of supplying the deficiencies caused
by their previous extravaganza and rob-
berries? The next three months will
solve the question. But the Ring will
do we'll net to. be emboldened, by past
'impunity, to venture upon this final
grab. A plunder d and long-suffering
people may pay the. frightful taxes; but
they will jealously watch and insist that
the money be legitimately applied. The
day of reckoning for the robbers Of the
Ring'may not, after all, be so distant as
they imagine.

COUNTY. AuD1ToR's OFFICE,

Edgefield q. h., April yQth, 1877.
Mr.. EpIToR,--I have been called upon
by several Taxpayers;to exhibit the list
of delinquent taxpayers on tlietax Books
of 1868, 1859, is7o;and1s71 tnjushce to
myself, I I,would state that thes Original
Tax Books Of 1858, 1859, and 1870, inlany
opinion, were never completed Sit go, 7
have never seen: them. have iis,'Ihy
possession anincomplete Original of 1858;
thoseof 1869 and 1870 did not receive
from Mr.. L. Schiller, the late Auditor,
when I made formal demand of them
from him.
Mr.. Frank Howard was semitic Ham
burg in June 1870, to settle up the books
for the years 1858 and 1869. Mr.. Howard
recently informed me that all executions
on land, to which no owner or owners
could be found, were marked " "NllSq
bona," and as such included in the final
settlements for those years..
The Original of 1871, can be seen at any
hour at my office; where I will take
pleasure in answering any question con-
cerning the taxes of said year, and for
that year only.
Very Respectfully,
- r. A: LYNCH,
County Auditor.
