WEATHER AND BUSINESS.
Weather moderate. The river here is
swelling slowly. with twelve feet of
water on the bars to Cairo and four and
a half feet from thence to st. Louis,
with navigation impeded on account Of
the heavy running ice. The Ohio is
stationary from Cincinnati down, with
ten feet in the channel. White and Ar
kansas rivers remain at low tide. Bust
ness on the landing moderate.

commissioner must be made to the said
special commissioner, to have testimony
taken by him and time and place Of
hearing arranged with him.
Claimants whose claims amount to
over $4,000 aud rot more than $4,000,
who desire to have their testimony taken
by special commissioner, must make
an application to that effect to the COM
missioner of claims in Washington to
obtain leave. Claimants whose claims
are over $4,000 are compelled by law to
bring their proof and their witnesses
before the commissioner of claims at
Washington.
Mr.. Epping further informed our
reporter that Col. Parmele Of Columbia
had also been appointed a special COM
missioner, and although the appoint
ment of each ran throughout the state,
they would not interfere with each other
by encroaching on what may be regarded
as their natural territorial jurisdiction,
there being more than work enough for
each one in his own section.

The Taxpayers Convention.

The president and the executive COM
mittee of the Taxpayers convention have
unanimously resolved that the conven-
ton shall reassemble in Columbia, on
Tuesday, February II, the day prior to
that on which the State Grange of the
Patrons of Husbandry will meet at the
same place. The taxpayers in the several
counties are requested to assemble in
public meeting on the first Monday in
February and elect as many delegates to
the convention as their counties have
members of the more numerous branch
of the General Assembly. This, with
the former delegations, will give a con-
vention of nearly two hundred members,
amongst whom will be found, we hope,
trustly representatives of all the taxpay-
ing classes.

THE LUNATIC. ASYLUM.

One of the paragraphs of Gov. Mo-
s, s. mes sssge which we could heartily
assent to was that in which he conf
mends the course Of DR.. Eusor, as gu
pcrintendent of the State Lunatic Asy-
lum. We visited the asylum in 1866,
just after the close of the war, and af-
ter making due allowance for the long
period of distress through which the
state had passed, we could not refrain
from expressing surprise at the squalid,
comfortless and careless appearance of
everything connected with the Institu-
tion.
The rooms were little better than
dungeons, so far as comfort was con-
cerued. There were no eoDveniences
for fires for warmth; the only bath
room a filthy place under on archway;
all the patients were herded together
at meals; in fact, there wasa sad want
Of care, and a negrect OF the common
est provisions for the health and COM
fort of the inmates. We did not again
see the establishment until few
months ago. Every thing in the
meantime had bsss bettered. Hot
and cold water was conveniently
at hand on every foor-it bad
previously to be carried over the
entire asylum in buckets. Each ward
Lad its own dining room. Bath rooms

SOMETHING WE WANT TO SEE.

We have received the report Of the
supervisor of the public printing of the
state Of Ohio, made to the governor,
aud sent in with his message to the
legislature in 1873.
1t may be well to state that since the
organization Of the state in 1868 to the
present time, no report in detail of the
enormous amounts of printing paid for
by this state has ever been made pub
lie. From the very beginning 1t has
been a very leech upon the state treas
ury, but we only know its enormity by
the gross amounts appropriated.
A document similar to this Ohio re-
port is some thing we would greatly
like to see. The materials for its pre-
paration must be in existence some
where. Mr.. Cardozo could help US to
it If he chose. BE pays the printing
bills and must have the vouchers.
A comparison between the two
states of Ohio and South Carolina will
be of use in contemplating the dispari-
ty between their printing bills-Ours
between three and four hundred thou
sand year and hers less than sixty
three thousand. We give few figures
from the last census:
m
Population of Ohio. 2,695, ,26O
Population of So. Ca.,...........7O5, sos
Wealth of Ohio, o,..........$l. .167 ,73I, ,697
Wealth Of So. Ca.............SiS3, 9l3 1897
Ohio having nearly five times as
many people as this state and being
over eight times as able to pay. Yet
Ohio gets all the printing needed for
her 2,695, ,26O citizens for less than
sixty-three thousand dollars, while the
7O5,6 ,6Oe people of South Carolina pay
nearly four hundred thousand dollars
per year into the hands of the Repub-
lican Printing Company.

The Withdrawal Of williams.

The president. on the 9Th inst, with
drew the nomination of George q. Will.
Jams for chief justice Of the supreme
court. Mr.. Williams requested the presi-
dent to do 30 in letter which is publish
ed, in which he says: ''Since my nomina-
ton the aoodgates Of calumny have been
opened upon me; my abilitiel have been
disparaged; my integrity brought in
question, and a public opinion adverse to
my appointment has been created, which
might hereafter embarrass your admins
tration, and perhaps impair my useful
ness on the bench" He is confident
that just public, when better informed.
will vindicate him from all the charges
against him.

comm endation of white men because they
are white. What is wanted to save
Soath Carolina is not rally of white
people against black people; but of hon
est men Of all colors against scoundrels
OF an colors.
We must not despir of the Republic,
even though that Republic be South
Carolina, and even though it have be-
come q den of thieves. And the specific
advice which Mr.. Pike gives as sugges.
ton of remedy to the peop'e Of that State
is in the main wise and good. He ad-
vises them to hold on to the faith that
the State can be redeemed; to make 4
systematic effort to attract foreign i'm.
migration 10 the State; to get rid of their
hereditary prejudices against strangers,
and of their old-time intolerance Of op-
posing opinions. 1t is not war of races
or Of colors that should be brought or;
bu acalm; resolute, patient increase and
combination of the forces Of good in soci-
ETY. against the forces of i. Society
needs to be turned right side up; and in
this effort letall men help who can, what
ever be their color.

were also found IN each ward. But
best of all, the building was heated by
hot air registers from top to bottom.
The place, too, was scrupulously clean
and neat, and the poor inmates looked
happier aud beartier for the change.
All this great Improvement is the
work of the superintendent while Ia
boring under difficulties which would
have disheartened a less energetic
man. For his report plainly shows
that the institution has suffered great
ly for lack of the funds which 1t had
every right to demand from the treas
ury. The truth is the inmates could
not vote, and they were left in the
lurch. While there is money found to
pay fraudulent printing bills in ad-
vance, none can be had to pay appro-
priations for such sacred charities.
DIR. Eusor paints vividly the embar-
rassments, notifications and sacrifices
suffered in keeping the asylum open.
The institution is now in debt to the
amount of sixty thousand dollars. This
debt ought to be paid off at once and
the appropriation for the support OF
the asylum for the current year should
be liberal and should be promptly paid.
The Lunatic Asylum is about the
only one of the state institutions which
have been creditably managed by the
republican party and we think the leg
islature and the treasurer should do
what they can to foster it.
