be decline In prices of cotton goods before

STATE LEGISLATURES.
SOUTH CAROLINA.

The Legislature Not Bent ON Redeeming the
Stase-The State Debt Cannot be Com
pounded mt seventy-nvc Cents the
Doilar-The Blue Ridge Railroad ssJob''-
The People Desp0ndeut Over the Insoi-
vency.
COLUMBIA Feb. %. 1872
SO far from keeping faith with their past promises
In aid OF economy and reform the members OF the
South Carolina Legislature the session draws to
a close, are making every use OF the few remaining
days TO further additional projects OF corruption.
This morning the House voted to strike out the
euactlng clause of the bill providing for payment Of
past due interest on the State debt.
This evening the Ways and Means Committee re.
ported unfavorably on the bill to validate the
various issues of state bonds, some OF which, 1t is
alleged, were Illegally put upon the market. Kemp
ton, the financial agent, has been here for weeks,
trying to lobby this measure through and shield
himself but, judging by t0-nlghtS debate, his ell
forts will be unsuccessful.
The most stupend0us fraud, however, is the bill
granting and to the Blue Ridge Railroad, which has
already passed the House and Is certain to pass the
Senate Tomorrow as, on Its second reading In tnat
body, there were but SIX votes In opposition Inc
passage OF this bll which has been effected by the
most garlng side warp, saddles the state with
an extra obligation OF $2,0Oo,O00.
The Union Trust Company through Mr.. wesley,
have raised their demand for compromising the
State debt from fifty to seventy five cents on the
dollar which precludes the possibility OF Erecting
the negotiation.
There is evidently no desire OF the present Legs-
lature. which adourns next week, to either protect
the bOndhOlders or make any effort to redeem the
State nom ITS present insolvency.
AS the resolution adopted bv the late Republican
Convention nominating delegates to the Philadei-
phia Convention called for the removal OF present
federal ofice-holders, nearly all the gentlemen
have gone TO Washington to save their Official
heads.
