THE BEAUTIES OF RECONSTRUCTION
From the Charles,o on News1

FROM the Charleston News
The Columbia Union endeavors to make
its readers believe that tue owners OF the
1000 pieces of real estate In Charleston,
which were forfeited to the State last week.
could have paid their taxes II they would,
and that they were unable to pay simply because
they were unwilling 10 pay, and for no other rea-
son. Perhaps 1t VIA say the same thing OF the
10000 acres OF land which were forfeited 10 the
State for taxes III Richland county. The simple
truth IS that the owners OF the property have. hop
ing against hope paid the taxes as long as they
could beg or borrow the money to do II with. II
is an absurdity TO suppose that any man would
give up his property while he was able 20 retain It,
The Union also suggests tnat the heavy debt OF
the city OF Charleston was the canse OF the long
roll OF forfeitures here; but 1t knows, ought to
know. that the iorfcltures were Tor State and
county taxes alone.

The action OF the New Jersey Episcopal Dio.
cesar Convention in declaring for division

OF 81 clerics and laymen to u was yester-
day the main topic Of discussion through
out Episcopaian circles in the state. and in spite
OF the strong minority arguments against it, was
warmly approved by the great mass OF parishion-
ers. The main argument against the measure was
the additional cost which second bishop would
entail on the parishes, some Of which are now
quite poor. The carving OF the measure,
therefore, is pointed 10 with pride by its
champions as the best evidence possible
that New Jersey Episcopalians consider the ques
ton OF saving souls paramount to the saving Of
the dross that persheth-dollars ana cents. It
