The American King.

The wealth and power ofMr. Cornelius
Vanderbilt is assuming appalling proper
tions. The great consolidated railway
line from the West to the Northern sea,
board, which he controls, is represented
on the New York Stock Exchange by
sureties equal to $2l5, 100000, and its
gross income last year was not less than
S45, 900, ,000-more than the whole in
come of the United States Government
few years ago. In commenting upon
this fact Horper's Weekly remarks: ;
1t is impossible to contemplate this
vast aggregation of money power, and
commercial control in the hands of one
man without feeling concern for the
result. Neither military, nor political,
nor commercial supremacy can be pushed
beyond certain limits without danger.
1t would seem as though the limit in
this case had been reached. Yet not
content with the mastery of 2, $50 miles
of railway, involving in large degree
the control of the internal trade OF the
States of II mos, Indiana, Ohio and New
York, it is we'll understood that in Octo-
Der next, at the annual election OF the
Western Union Telegraph Company, the
Commodore will enter into possession OF
that great property likewise, with its
sixty or seventy thousand miles OF wires,
its forty millions Of capital, and its eight
or nine millions Of revenue. When this
occurs, not only will the commerce Of the
four chief States of the North be subject
to Mr.. Fauderbit-under such feeble
restrictions as our Legislatures may i'm
pose-but the whole tclegraphic cores
pondcnce of the country will obey his law.
He may prescribe not only what shall be
the price of barrel of -four in New York
but also when, how, and at what cost
citizens may communicate with each
other by telegraph. OF course he will
bu subject to legislative contro'. What
that will amount to we all know. In the
past no Legislature in this StateEhas ever
dared to beard him. He will be a bold
man. indeed, who attempts to do so now,
when his resources are so unbounded and
his power so far reaching. 1t was said
that the late James Fisk, Jr., who con.
trolled paltry $50 miles of Erie, running
through q half settled country, could on
an emergency bring %, 900 votes into the
field. At how many voters, then, must
we reck konthc master of 2,l50 miles ol
railway through thickly settled country,
and $4,000 miles of telegraph? 1t is
moreover one thing to pass laws, and
uvitc another to execute them against a
man fertile in resources, energetic in
action, obs:ina.e in combat, and in
cyhaustible in purse.

The end OF a Feud.

COLUMBIA, S. c., Aug, Q.
To-day we have information Of a fear
full tragedy which occurred near here
yesterday. A young man named Howell
Hay killed Alexander Brown, at point
on the Wateree river, few miles from
Columbia. The cause ofthe unfortunate
affair seems to be about as follows !:
Some time ago difficulty occurred be-
tween the parties and Brown beat Hay
severely. A warrant was issued for his
arrest, and subsequently he beat Hay S
Younger brother. On yesterday the Hay
brothers were out deer hunting, and
Brown approached the stand where the
brothers we're posted waiting for the deer
to be driven out, and was warned not to
advance. He refused to heed the warn
ing, and brought his gun into position,
as if to shoot When OILY few spaces
off Hay fired and lodged load Of buck
shot in his enemy's side. Brown fell but
while on the ground attempted to shoot,
but Hay dispatched him by discharge
from his second barrel. Hay surrendered
himself, and is now in Jail in this city,

DEAR SIR A few weeks ago an in
toxicated female, wandering waif, was
put off the down train, at this station in
as deplorable condition as could well be
imagined, not even being able to give
her name or willing to give her wherea-
bouts.
Not knowing what to do with her and
at her own expressed desire, we gave her
funds sufficient 10 defray her expenses,
or at least, fare, to some other locality.
She was brought among US and we obey
ing the usual impulse of humanity,
sought to get her away.
Therefore, as soon as practicable, we
got her off on the cars, and in doing SO
suppose we have brought down the OPP
probrium of certain party signing them
selves Passenger who made statements
in your paper soon after calculated to not
only injure the reputation Of our little
rising burg, but affect the status Of us
individually.
Passenger" says this poor creature
was made drunk at the station in order
to facilitate her removal. Now this is
not unkind but untrue, and we are pre-
pared to prove it Her condition required
the moderate administration Of stimu-
lants in manner, but we are not prepared
to assert that 81 ch was really carried out,
all we know is that we have no aims
house, hospital or in6rmary as yet erected
at Millettville. and only know the old
method of ,tting rid of pestiferous per-
sons, that is by the way they came-pe'
rias aatma7cs' if you like it better.
Our censor again admonishes the rail-
road company to have our station ex-
plunged or wiped out on account Of this
woman being reshipped from our village,
we guess if all places were to be sus-
pended on account of disagreeable and
disgraceful wretchcs being sent there
from, many pretending burgs might soon
have to dip their flag in conformity to
the law, and might not Beaufort herself
or wherever passenger" may reside,
quit the straight line and pass out gloom
lily on the sideling.
But, without wishing to be personal,
we are obliged to wonder why any intelli.
gent passenger could have stumbled SO
far off the line Of common sense as to
imagine for the least moment, that the
president and directors of the Port Royal
railroad would consider the suspension OF
station even if some inhuman persons
were to reship drunken creature from
their midst, or even the devil himself if
he provide a ticket or pay his fare.
Hoping this may show our position
even though late, to the public as well as
passenger" we close asking that in
Justice to ourselves and our place OF
abode you may insert this article.
Very respectfully,
Your obt. serv't.,
BATES & MOBILES.

The Largest Bona Eide Circulation
A SPECIAL SESSION

It is decided that special session of
the legislature will be called to meet
about the middle or end of October. The
condition Of the finances, the floating
debt, the bond case, etc., render meet
ing necessary. The fact is, the govern
ment cannot much longer be carried on
without relief. Mr.. Cardozo, nor any
other man, can pay two dollars when he
only has one The salaries are due all
over the state. Even Lieutenant Governor
Gleaves has failed to squeeze his pay out
of the empty treasury, and so low is the
credit of the state that such straight
claims as his and those Of the judges,
solicitors and auditors of the state are
held by the paper brokers in Columbia
to be worth only fifty cents on the dollar.
Then the bond question must be met.
Even should the mandamus be refused
by the supreme court that would not
wipe out the debt though one would
think so if he read the wild words of the
Charleston papers and the Columbia
Union Herald. The claim of the Reve-
nue. bond script owners is still a claim
that must be met; so also is the clai Il OF
the holders of Parker's notes. Besides
these are at least one million of other
claims which may be denomiuated ''foa :
ing debt" A financial scheme is there
fore a necessity by which the various
creditors of the state may be met and
satisfied. 1t is proposed to scale the
bonded debt-Say 80 per cent for the
most doubtful Of the bonds; so cents for
other issues and 66 cents for the old
debt. All other claims to be put at So
cent on the dollar.
To meet these, a new bond must be
issued to take up all outstanding claims
bonds, interest, scrip, notes, certificates,
etc., etc. These new bonds will contain
a pledge for the levying Of an annual
tax sufficient to pay the interest and pro-
vide for their ultimate redemption. The
issue of the new bonds being intended
to reduce the state debt will not need the
endorsement of direct vote Of the peo-
pie as would bond 10 increase the state
debt, according to the late amendments
TO the constitution.
This scheme receives the support of
all classes OF the community and accords
better with the honor Of the state than
a repudeation of any part OF the debt
for which the state is legally bound
through the acts other recognized agents.
1t is presumed, of course that salaries
now due will be paid ill full and that the
legislature viii authorize the comptroller
to levy such tax as will supply funds
enough hereafter to pay every expense
as it originates. The legislature, in the
past, has failed to meet the question of
taxation boldly. They have shirked the
levy of an amount sufficient to meet the
appropriations, aud have thus embarrass-
ed the treasury. To this timidity in
taxation and their boldnoss in appropria-
tions is due the very bad condition into
which things have fallen. Mr.. Cardozo
would much rather pay than refuse if
only he was provided with the means.
