"The special message sent in to the
Legislature by Gov. Scott, Of South Ca
rolina, on the 9th instant, is an ill.tem-
pered document, which shows much as
to the intestine qnsrrels of the Republi-
can leaders in that State, but nothing of
any Importance in disprocf Of the griev-
ous frauds alleged against the carpet bag
Government. The Governors great ar.
gument is, that his accuser, Bowen, is
himseif m unsavory character, or, in
the language. OF the message, "seeks,
under the garb Of tho impeaoher. to hide
the brand Of the convict" Bowen is
certainly no angel, but the man who
only escaped impeachment by liberal
division of his ill-gotten gains with his
judges, is not sufficiently his superior to
bo his critic. Relative to the true con-
dition of South Carolina finance, the
message, of course, leaves the exact mag

The Columbia correspondent of the
Charleston Courier predicts that the ex-
peoted fight in the Legislature will not
be much Of fight after all. The i'm.
peaohers are defeated and Scott has the
power in his own hands. I have no
doubt but that the joint report will,
after the expenditure of certain amount
OF Legislative balderdash, be quietly laid
aside and the financial ring be left mas
ters OF the situation. According to
Scott's message, there is no limit to the
amount of bonds which he may issue
under the laws authorizing their issue,
and the income from the taxes not being
sufficient to meet expenses, bonds will,
doubtless, be issued as long as dollar
can bo raised upon them. There are
rumors even now that the printers are
turning out new bonds to be used rs col
laterals.

The secret, oath-bound org ,nizatiou
which has been formed within the walls
OF the Legislature. by the corrupt adhe-
rents of the ring, is one of the events OF
the day. It shows the desperate straits
to which the bond swindlers and the
plunderers of the Treasury have been
reduced. Thus we find that outlawry
organizes itself in the very halls of le-
gislation. and the peoples money is
used-to organize and buy up a faction
formed to throw the mantle of protection
around the most outrageous set OF

HE RURAL OARoLIN1AN.--We beg
leave to acknowledge the receipt, from
Messrs. Walker, Evans & Oogswell,
Charleston, 8. O., of the bound volumes
OF the Rural Carolinian up to October l,
1871, and of the remaining numbers up
to February l, 1879. These come to us
with the compliments of the enteprising
publishers. We find the volumes very
attractive in matter and style, and we
take occasion heartily to commend the
RURAL CARon1NIAN. It is worthy of q
liberal support. and every man in Caro-
lima interested in the industry of the
State ought to become subscriber, and
help on the good work. The publishers
are good and true men, to the manner
born, and they deserve generous sup
port in their enterprise.

Our readers are pretty we'll acquainted
with the Judges re. e.elected- -Messrs. Will

Maher and Townsend. We regard these
selections very good, and we have reason
to believe that these gentlemen will dis
charge their duties we'll and impartially.
Mr.. T. J. Mackey is also new Judge.
He assumes serious responsibilities.
There are many who distrust him. He
is capable of good as we'll as bad action.
He is q Carolinian. He has intellect.
He is about to start on new career.
We shall not PREJUDICE him ON this ca
reer. It is in his power to assume now a
new and high role, and to pursue it stea-
Oily. In the past he has done much
that We utterly condemn. We suggest
to him that, resolving to move hereafter
in the groove OF virtnous and consist
ent career, he cause the public to for
give the past in the excellence Of his
future. In good faith we charge thee,
Thomas Jefferson Mackey, to fling away
unworthy ambition. and, by study and
conduct. seek to be the fair and upright
Judge.

We regret to find that yesterday, in
copying from the Charleston Ne,os, and
commenting on the plan for adjusting

as stated, with Governor Scott and Mr..
Wesley. We cheerfnlly make known the
mistake, and relieve Colonel Childs Of
the allegation OF being one OF the
financial tinkers." We assumed that
the Neus was correct in its statement.
