tion of Congress to investigate the cause of
the cholera in 1873, and who has traversed a
belt of country on both sides of the Missis-
sippi, in the Southwestern States from Ten
nessee to Louisiana, has arrived at the con-
clusion that there has been no cholera in the
country this season, and the probabilities are
that we will have none during the present
year. 1t is gratifying to the people Of the
country everywhere, and particularly to that
section of the country so susceptible Of death
dealing scourges, to feel a sense of security
from the ravages of this dreaded epidemic.
The horrors of last years yellow fever, it is
to be hoped, will not come upon the nhabit-
ants of the line of the Mississippi; in fact,
from the health reports everywhere the out
look for summer devoid of more than ordi-
nary sickness is encouraging.

.sTHE FOURTHv AT CHESTER.

SIHE
The Reporter prints the following synopsis
of speech delivered at Chester on the fourth
of July by Judge Mackey:
"After some general Introductory remarks,
Judge Mackey entered upon theme which
is of the utmost interest to US all-the present
condition of South Carolina. This condition
he declared to be most sorrowful and mourn.
full one. 1t is before US in letters of living
light-clear, unmistakable as the sun in the
blue heavens above US. The majority of the
public officers had proved false to their trust
and to the people. All have not thus proved
false. There are some who are faithful
among the faithless )" there are few honest
men, but they are as mile-stones compared to
the trees of the forest.
Ten days ago the speaker was in Washing
ton he called upon the President. Almost
the first question asked by the President was
"What do you mean by that corrupt govern
ment you have in South Carolina? Your
Governor prostitutes the high duties of his
office, sells pardons and bargains the Offices
at his disposal to the highest bidder" This
Governor continued Judge Mackey, has been
indicted for grand larceny. He appointed
an inexperienced colored youth Treasurer of
Orangeburg. When the taxes had been COL
lected, the Governor asked the Treasurer to
lend him six thousand dollars, saying he
would return it. This he refused to do; and
now the Treasurer is in Jail, while the Cover
nor is at large Why? Because he has
corrupt Judge at his back The President
inquired of Judge Mackey, "Why do you not
bring Moses to trial?" Judge Mackey replied
that if it ever became his duty to arraign
Moses it would be done. The President said:
"Unless the Republicans reform, the govern.
ment will pass from them" Judge Mackey
said without reform, the Republicans must
fail He then tersely showed how high taxes
enter into everything we eat, drink, or wear.
He declared that taxes are not so high in
South Carolina as in many other States.
Complaint is made, not 80 much that the
taxes are high, but because the money is mis-
applied. In South Carolina there are two
great classes-the skinners and the skinned.
Republicans do not like to be skinned, but
these rogues are peeling all of US. He said
the Republicans are responsible for the mis-
government. There is but one remedy: cast
all dishonest men aside The misfortune, said
he, is that the party is compelled to take ig-
norant men. Intelligent men, men of SUBJ
stance, said Judge Mackey, will not assist in
this work. Gentlemen who keep away force
choice between an ignorant friend and an
