say one word TO contract the wide opportunity made
by Mr.. Summers death. We will not affect what we
do not feel but ready to forgive great deal
what our unhappy condition does not suffer US to
forget, and TO bury In Mr. Summers grave whatever
resentment still remains Of air the passion he stirred
up in our hearts against those who have accepted
him as their chief exponent. And this We can do
the more freely and fully because Mr.. Sumner had,
within the pl>t month"; spoken in terms Of emphatic
condemnation OF the profigacy Of the government
which disgraces South Carolina and Is reproach to
the Republic. He understood our condition. He
WAS advised with Us to the best means Of approach
ing Congress 10 obtain relief and redress. 1t was he
who put into the mouths OF the representative men
OF the race for whom he did so much, the warning
woris which still echo In the pollutco halls Of the
capital Of the state. At the moment Of his taking

enuncated the principle that, while the black man
entitled to every privilege Of citizenship no In.
teIftrence must or should be had with the equal
rights Ofthe white American citizens Mr.. Sumner
counted on, therefore, a staunch ally OF the
honest citizens OF South Carolina in their fight
against trickery and fraud In that sense his death
Is loss to this State Nor will the soldiers OF the

mourn the iallcn hear unnioved that death has

the battles in which Americans met In fractricida

County Finances.

The three midi county tax if ali collect
ed would produce $l5,G0e. But last
year the following deductions were made;
Lands forfeited, S45S.O3, lands not ex-
isting, $323.73; nulla bona executions,
1865. 06;. deductions by comptroller gen.
eral, SSS7.U5; total 81. 2.6S2.7S. We have
no reason to suppose that the deduc-
tons will be less this year. There
fore, what the county will actually get
from the three mill tax will be about
So, 3GS. Out of this the treasurer is
supposed to return about $4,000 on ac-
count Of the tax illegally collec ed )astyear
Taking out that, leaves the net receipts
for this year at $S,36S. The only other
source of revenue is from the licenses.
By the incorporation of Brunson and
Port Royal the county is deprived O.:
nearly thousand dollars of license
money from these places. Besides this
we understand that checks on the con-
tingent fund have been issued receivable
for licenses, to an amount sufficient to

IN. puU.Ic carer If Charles ~4InLcr, United
States Senator from Massachusetts. who died in " .s
ington Wednesday, covers most momcutous period
OF American history. In his carly years he devoted
himself TO the study of the law and when he visited
Europe in 1887, he was, although only twenty-six
years old received with marked attention. lie fre.
quently delivered addresses various literary and
phiauthropic subjects, and two volumes OF his ora
tons were published in 1890. The next year Mr..
Sumner was elected 10 the United States Senate
Ms the successor OF Daniel Webster. Thcre his elo-
oueuce and earnestncss soon elevated him TO the
leadership OF the Free Soil party, and i'll that posi-
ton he led the citation which sOwed, in both North

THE STATE DEBT.

Tie conservative newspapers Of this
state join quite will, Ugly with the admin
istration organs in the Reputation of a
portion Of the bonded debt of the state.
Five millions Of the scaled bonds were is
sued before the war, and another five or
six millions ofjust as binding obligatio s
were issued since. The conservative
moral sense does not seem to receive any
shock in view Of this immoral act. The
disgrace which has always fallen upon
states and upon individuals who are
false to their pledges does not seem to af-
fectth They are evidently SO pleased
with this shadow of relief that they don't
stop to consider that such legislation as
this sealing act is as imperative as it is
dishonest.

Another Warming Voice.

Rev. DR.. Stevens, distinguished
preacher of the Methodist Church,
North, is now engaged in writing letters
to the New York Methodist from differ
ent portions of the South. The follow
ing are the truthful and excellent obser-
vations of DR.. Stevens upon ruined :"
South Carolina
South Carolina is absolutely ruined;
no statesman on earth, no angel in heav.,
en-, can suggest solution OF her financial
problem: none seems probable but the
great crime of Reputation. - And this
means moral ruin added to financial ruin.
1t is paltry logic to say that South Caro-
lima a. tho old lender of disloyalty,
deserves this ruin. What of the hosts of
her black opulation in this case? She l.,
substantially, commonwealth OF freed
men; they are her dominant majority.
Her ruin is their ruin. By their heed
less concession to the thieving politicians,
they and their children, forau in definite
time, are submerged, with their far less
numerous white neighbors, i'll a public
wreck which is hardly paralelled in the
history Of civilized governments. Our
readers know well that our political SYN.
pathies are on the side of the colored
race and Of all men who legitinately
labor for their welfare in the South. But
we know what we affirm when we say
that the republican politicians are un-
scrupulously running the cause which
they pretend to uphold. Not few OF
them are men who were furious seces
sionists till their cunning detected the
coming fate the Confcderacy, when they
changed their politics in time to secure
the patronage of the Government and the
favor of the freedmen. The latter now
hare the control of several States at the
baIlot-box, and in every one such States
their leaders have been driving them to
destruction. Official and political cor
fuption are rampant. The freedmen are
caioled the leaders are enriched; and
the States wrecked. Northern politi-
clans should understand these facts; the
Government at Washington should pom
der them gravely. The dominant party
of the North can never WELD a perma.
nent influence in the South till it gets
rid of the shameful pre- itigc Of the men
who have for some years pretended to
represent it among the freedmen, while
running whole States and cnrlchlng them
selyessby the spoiis.

Another Picture.

On Friday evening last the South Car
olina house Of repre- natives presented
a scene calculated to cause Charles Sum
ner to vote against civil rights bill.
Dannerly and Riley, two colored repre-
sentatives from Orangebarg county were
30 drunk that the speaker ordered the
sergeant-at-arms to remove them; where
uposthe drunken clowns pulled out their
revolvers and defed all hands to put
them out. A general row ensued, which
finally resulted in the capture Of the Of
tenders, and their expulsion from the
house. While this scene was in progress
Rev. DR.. Currie and large party of
tourists from the north were present. If
ever the colored man is again deprived of
his political rights, it will be the result
of his voting into Office such set of ig-
norant, degraded and dishonest rcprcsen-
tatives as form a majority Of the lcgisla-
ture of South Carolina.

The Public Printing.

The bill to regulate the public printing
ofth state has become a law. In its
passage every point made by the Con-
MERcTAL in its attack upon the printing
swindle is fully substantiatcd, By the
provision limiting the expense hereafter
to fifty thousand dollars per year, the gem
eral assembly virtually admits that when
it voted an average Of three hundred
thousand dollars year for the past three
years to the Republican Printing compa-
ny, that it was the author of and part
ner in fraud upon the state of just the
difference between $500, 900 and $50, 900.
In other words, we believe that we vii
some day be able to show that certain
senators and representatives have divid-
ed, during the past three years, nearly
three-quarters of a million Of dollars
among themselves under the thin dis
guise Of payments for printing. We do

Anxious to be Kicked.

The Charleston Chronicle has been for
SIX months trying to get its name in the
Me,cs. Like Lawyer Meddle, in the
play, it daily protrudes its posterior,
meekly soliciting the favor Of being
kicked. It's jealousy is dreadfully excited
because the Neos has occ cssionally quoted
from the COMMERCIAL, so we come in for
q great share of it's attention. Its prin-
eipal objection to US is that we spell our
name with a "p." AS it lives, moves
and has its being through pap, We
are at loss to understand its dislike to q
letter which if it had any regard for an
appropriate cognomen would begin and
end its name-The Charleston Pap.

PARTING.

II thou dost bid thy friend farewell,
But for one night though thai farewell may be
Press thou his palm with thine How canst thou
Tell how far from thee
Fate or caprice may lead his feet
Ere that tomorrow comes? Men have been known
To lightly turn the corner of street,
And days have grown
To months, and months to lagging years,
Before they looked in loving eyes again.
Parting at best is underlaid with tears
With tears and pain.
Therefore, lest sudden death should come between,
Or time or distance, clasp with pressure true
The hand Of him who goeth forth; unseen
Fate goeth too!
Yea, find thou always time to say
Some earnest word between the idle talk
Lest with thee henceforth, ever, night and day
Regret should walk.

More Warnings.

The spring elections in New York, as
far as heard from, result in decided gains
for the" democrats. Two years ago the
republicans carried thirty out of thirty
four boards OF supervisors, in counties
from which there are full returns, and
this year they carry but ten.
In New Hampshire the democratic
candidate beats the republican by ma
forty of nearly two thousand, and the
same party carries the house ofreprcsen-
tatives and ties the senate.

reduce the sum to be received in cash
to about $4,000. Add this to the ss,-
S6S Of taxes and the income for the year
appears to be Sl2.36s. Upon this checks
have already been issued for SIS. 300.
Leaving available for the expenses of
the remaining seven months of the year
only about $1,000. Out ofthis is to come
the treasurers commissions, $1,000; ex-
pehses of two courts, sustenance of the
poor, expenses for roads and bridges,
trial justices, coroncrs, sheriff and Jail,
commissioners per diem and mileage,
clerk hire, ctc., etc.
The present outlook is that before we
begin to pay off our cid debt we will
begin to pile up new one.

demption for those whose lands have
been forfeited to the state for non-pay
ment of taxes.
We commend it to the careful attention
of all interested. There is one provision
in it which strikes US as singular, and
that is that under it no lands can be sold
by the state as forfeited for less sum
than the assessed value at the time Of
Forfeiture. The state is not likely to
make many sales under ssuch circum-
stances.
