In no year has the total State, county and
city taxation, for one year, exceeded 8 80
per cent, and the average Of the four years
is 3.O7 per cent. But even setting the tax
at 81 per cent. is not enough for the anxious
correspondent. He goes on to say that ga
"carelul estimate, and moderate one, OF
"the entire amount OF tax-State, city and
revenue-that one has to pay on property
sin the City OF Charleston makes the figure
"about fifteen per cent" A more absurd
faIsehood was never seriously written. 1t
is probable that an average OF ona.haJ OF
one per cent would cover every item OF tax
alton levied and collected In Charleston out
side OF the regular State, city and county
tax. This would make the entire tax, on
the average o: four years, 3.57 per cent,
instead OF fifteen per cent.
We do not suppose that the SUMS corre-
spondent had deliberate purpose OF injur-
ing this city and State, but the effect OF his
reckless misstatements is to hurt the credit
OF individual citizens and prevent the influx
OF foreign capital. And il the Sun, which
has usually been kind aud considerate In it's
discussion OF Southern questions, neglects to
correct the blunders OF its correspondent,
we may well pray, once more, to be saved
from our friends.

The southern State Debts.

The Richmond Enquirer comments at
length upon our late article In regard 10
Governor Walkers proposition about the
payment OF the debts Of the States by the
Federal Government. In the; course OF it's
remarks it has something to say about
."dyr,eptic day-dreams, visionary views, "
aud "poetic sentiment" as opposed to the
"robust thought and feeling OF practical
"men." This is Offset by compliment to
The NEWS as an sable and intelligent, but
''straight-laced contemporary"-which Is as
original as it is soothing. Passing by sueers
and compliments as Of equal yalue-the one
no cheaper than the other--we come at
last to the point, viz: That the payment OF
the debts OF the States. OF the South more
particularly, would in effect be bill Of sale
of those States to the Federal Government.
To this the Enquirer: replies
For the life of US we cannot see how q
measure like this, which is Intended to revive
the dropping States, to give them new anima-
ton and spirit, can be construed into an allen
alton oftheir rights. Ia 1t not evident that
the States will be made stronger Instead of
weaker? And If that be true how can 1t be
held that they would be signing a bill of sale
for the rellnquishment either of their own
rights or the rights Of their individual citi-
zensg But, We are told, it is bartering q
priceless prerogative for rmoney-surrendering
sovereignty for pecuniary compensation. This
would be all very well If there was not more
OF poetic sentiment than substantial common
sense In lt-if the argument, or the objection,
was founded more In fact and less IN fancy.
We answer that at this very moment, by
men ofallparties at the North, and by an ever
growing party at the South, the overthrow
OF the late Confederate States by force OF
arms is regarded as conquest, in the full
meaning Of the word. Northern Democrats
may dispute the assertion with vehemence;
but let tie South, in any decided manner,
attempt TO prove its so-called sovereignty,
and we shall soon see, what We saw clearly
The Charleston daily news. [volume] (Charleston, S.C.) 1865-1873, 1873-03-20

enough in The late war, that in the oplnlon
OF all Northern men, OF whatever polltlcal
creed or profession, the South has every
right except the right which includes all
other rights-ln other words, it never o'a
have, never ought 10 have, and never shali
have, any right to do anything that Inc
Federal Government does not choose IL 10
do. II it had even the color OF right De-
fore the war, it was lost 10 the struggle
What the nation won in blood and fire was
not an abstraction about rights and theo-
ries of government; no, it was sometning
substantial, tangible, that hands coulu oe
laid on. 1t was property-these southern
States and the people in them. They 0eson9
to the Federal Government.
II now, In spirit OF magnanimity' that
government chooses 10 pay the debts OF
these States-the whole debt OF each ana
eyery one OF them, wipe out every particle
OF it, and assume the entire responsibility
why then portion OF the States will oe'
LONG doubly to The Federal Government.
They will have been bought and paid for
twice--once In blood and once in good hard
cash. Nor is there man living at the
North who will hold any other opinion.
Until the Enquirer proves that this Will
not be the consensus OF the North, it will be
idle to discuss the other points at issue. a
deal OF s'robust thinking" by q "practlcal
.man" NAV establish the fact that the North
does not already regard the South as its
property. The worry is, that being sold'
the purchase money Is not yet forthcoming.
Governor Walker wants to settle up squarely
and fairly, leaving the Title deed IN aoey-
ance, for future litigation, mayhap. Well
We are very grateful to him, very grateful
indeed, and when he shall appear with The
funds actually in hand, we shall endeavor to
be as practical aud robust as possible. Will
the Federal Government pay our debts
eyes" thinks the Enquirer. When ?
That's the great question. Convince the
people that you are going to pay their
debts, and pay them right away, and you
may spare them the fine arguments you
have prepared to show why they should not
oct red in the face at the bare idea Of such
an indignity.

Charity Begins at Home.

Mr.. Oakes Ames arrived at his home ID
North Easton, Mass, one day last week,
and was honored by complimentary din
ner and reception, which were attended by
three bupdred and fifty Of his townsmen, To-.
dies as we'll as gentlemen. Laudatory
speeches were made, and every assurance
was offered the culprt Congressman OF per-
feet confidence in his honor and integrity.
American morals must indeed be In a
state Of dissolution, II individuals decline to
follow the example, which even Congress
has thought necessary, OF insisting on some
little regard for reputation. That men
should refrain from stoning the originator OF
g scandal which has moved the indignation
OF decent people throughout the land, is only
fulfilling the law OF Charity. But there
should be some suggestion OF that sublime
Injunction, "Sin no more;" without which
Charity becomes an encouragement to Vice,
and sustains rogues as yet unveiled. TO
man endowed with conscience, tho moot
fearful torture must be the enjoyment OF un-
merited esteem. The remorse and suffer
ings it awakens will surely lead even sin-
ner 10 lneffable longings after the substance,
rather than the shadow, OF virtue. And the
sinner who can escape from the slough, no
matter how he has soiled his garments, is
better, and more strongly entrenched in Vlr-
tue, than he who has never been tempted to
fall. But to lavish fulsome adulations on
one who, not content with falling, has drag
eed others down to share his shame, and
yet still denies the turptitude OF the deed,
argues degree Of moral obtuseness that
may we'll surprise even the sinner who has
made some progress in ways that are dark.
Mr.. Ames may be irreproachable In his
private life, and the most severe public Gen.
sor may consistently hold out friendly hand
to him as a private character. But to pay
homage to one who showed such disregard
for the honor OF others; to solicit the friend
ship OF a man who, In enlicing bis friends
to wrong. doing, took care to preserve the
proof Of their disgrace-is an utter perver-
sion Of Charity, and the strongest plea for
Vice ever advanced In moral community.

Save Us from Our Frtends'

It is an unfortunate thing for the Souen
that The zeal OF the correspondents OF North
ern newspapers leads them so often to puo-
lish statements OF our condition ana pros
poets which are wholly false, or are gross
exoggarations Of an unpleasant truth. Iheir
anxiety to furnish material for continued
assaults upon the Republican party causes
tbem to he obliyious OF the fact that heir
sensational stories do serious harm to the
very people whom they profess to pity and
admire, South Carolina hss suffered severe
" In this way. The enormous increase OF
her debt, the extravagant expenditures OF
the State and county officials, and the bur-
densome taxation have tended to keep her
back; but, 10 spite Of politicians s2s taA-
gatherers, trade and agriculture are flourish
Ing, and the people to-day have more hard
cash In their pockets than at any other time
since the war ended. 1t is rather hard, then,
to find South Carolina spoken OF as q doomed
State, and Charleston as deserted city.
The way In which 1t is done may be gath
cred from recently published letter OF
Columbia correspondent Of the New York
Sun. This correspondent, after giving
deplorable account OF the prospects OF the
State, proceeds to supply the reason why
"the waste places iu Charleston have never
" been rebuilt" This reason Is the iearfuly
high rate OF taxation. The correspondent, In
support OF his statement, gives memoran-
dunn OF the taxes paid by ga gentleman who
Gowns a burned lot In Charleston" and he
adds that his Information is "taken from
"oficial sources, and may be regarded as re-
"liable." The land in question ls valued at
"s50O, and Is 30 assessed on the tax books"
The taxes paid upon it in one year were as
follows:
State tax q per cent. $40 %
County tax q per cent .)................ 60
City tax Is per cent. )................... 10 w
Total (5a per cent ..sZ1 oo
This statement, wherever it came from, Is
incorrect in every particular, as ls shown oy
the following table OF the rates OF taxation
levied during the past four years:
