now turn around, and like the ungrateful snake
that was warmed to life strike death blow at
their benefactor's bosom, is q height of ingrati-
tude unworthy ofa Christian community. We
speak warmly. because we feel it. If farmers
or citizens anywhere think that the retail mer-
chants are charging chem too much for their
goods, let US ask them if they pay cash or buy
on credit. Do they expect retail merchant
to sell them pound of sugar on six months
time for the same price they would buy ten
barrels for cash2 And yet that is all this
nonsense about the high prices of retailers
amounts to. If farmers will go to their own
local merchants and say-"Here, we have FIVE
thousand dollars cash with which to buy this
bill of goods-give us an estimate" we venture
to say that they can get as close one as they
themselves could obtain in any of the leading
markets, with expenses and charges of trans
portation and handling added. If the grangers
pay cash at home for their supplies, as they
will have to do in the larger markets, they will
find they can get them cheap enough. The
trouble is in the credit system which they have
forced upon the country merchants and which
fact they now wish to repudiate. We know
thousands of men all over this country that
never could have lived through from one year
to another, had it not been for the merchants
that sustained them And now that they have
q little cash to spend, to turn their backs upon
these very men is an unworthy thing for them
to do. We will help all classes to help each
other, but we shall most certainly maintain
the rights of our own friends against all others.

DEATH OF GEN. J. w. MILLER.-Seldom
has our community ever received greater
shock that when the sad news was received Of
General J. W. Miller being found dead, last
Monday morning, at his residence, nine miles
from Spartanburg The circumstances of his
death, as related to us, were most mysterious
and painful. He retired at an early hour the
night before, and was found dead the next
morning, lying out in his horse lot, near his
corn crib, with his feet extended over log, on
which, it is supposed, he was sitting at the
time the deed was committed. Hishead was ter
ribly torn to pieces by q large ball entering
the upper lip just below the nose, and pass
ing through the upper part of the head. Be-
tween his feet lay pistol, with the barrel emp
ty, and an exploded cap on the tube. 1t is
thought by some that he might have gone out
to his crib, Oh hearing some one trying to break
into it, and been killed by the rogue at close
quarters while others think the circumstances
leads to the conclusion that he must have taken
his own life. An inquest was held over his
body, but we have not heard what verdict has
been given. We can scarcely believe it possi-
BILE that he could have taken his own life, as he
was uniformly cheerful in disposition and not
given to melancholy moods. Gen. Miller was
a man of more than ordinary talent and fine
address, universally popular and highly esteem
ed by every one. He represented this County
many years in the House of Representatives,
and also several years in the Senate. His death
will be great loss to our County, and will long
be regretted by large circle of his friends and
acouaintances- Carolina Spartan.

WHAT rs THE MATTER Now?-The New
York Tribune, of Saturday, says: "There were
laid before US, yesterday, certain startling doc
uments, gravely affecting high officials The
publication of them seems to us clear duty /;
but we are unwilling to permit our columns to
be used in promulgating papers that must
bring such discredit upon the American name
while there is the remotest possibility Of our
being able to establish their lack of authentici-
ty. We have, therefore, set on foot thorough
investigation that will soon determine the mat
ter. while, meantime, and for this sole reason,
we reserve the documents themselves, and all
expression of opinion concerning the conduct
of the officials involved"
A Washington telegram, of Sunday, to the
Baltimore Sun, says: 'The greatest anxiety
and interest is felt in all circles here over the
disclosures threatened by leading New York
paper, said to implicate high officials: 1t is
asserted that the matter alluded 20 is in con-
nection with the Government subsidies to the
Pacific Mail Steamship Line, and that one of
the officials alluded to is a member Of the Cab
met, and another still higher parsonage.
The testimony taken in the Congressional in.
vestigation into this subject at the last session
has never been disclosed, and is now in the
possession of the Committee of Ways and
Means"

THE TINE ExTENDED.-The Senate bill pro-
viding for the extension of the time for the
payment and collection of taxes for the present
fiscal year came up, yesterday in the House of
Representatives, and was agreed to by strong
vote The extension was made imperative on
the Comptroller General, instead of being per-
missive, as in the original bill. There is no
doubt that, as thus amended, it will be concur
red in by the Senate at once. Should it by any
accident be delayed beyond to-day, we under
stand that the Comptroller will not enforce the
penalty, conceiving himself to be instructed by
the manifest purpose of the General Assembly.
As it is matter of absorbing interest to the
people, we give the substance of the bill as it
passed the House, yesterday. The ground of
its action is stated to be the delay which has
continued in the levy of taxes beyond the time
prescribed by law for the commencement of
their collection, and the further fact that the
time for the payment of the taxes, before pen
alties must attach, has already passed.
The Comptroller General, with the approva-
of the Governor, is required to extend the time
to persons charged with the performance of du-
ties connected with the assessment and levy of
the taxes as long as may be necessary, if they
cannot be performed in the time previously fixed
upon. It is made lawful for him likewise to
extend the time wherein the penalty or penal
ties shall attach to taxpayers and also the
time when the advertisement and sales of de-
linquent lands may be made, so as that it may,
as near as may be, conform to the period fixed
by law This period is sixty days after the
books have been opened for the collection of
taxes. The limit will vary, therefore, accor-
ding to the time when this was done in the sew
erai Counties In Richland, the collection
commenced on the 9Th of January, and the
people will have grace, accordingly until the
9Th of March. In some Counties, it viii be
shorter, in others longer, than this. We con-
gratulate the people upon this extension. It
is a small favor, but one very much needed:
And we are pleased to say, that the General
Assembly has in this, at least, done WE'LL

BE111eERENr CARD FROM MIR. FooTE.

BELL1GERENT CARD FROM MR.. FooTE.
The following card is published in the Wash
ingtop Chronicle by Mr.. Foote: -
As portion of the community may possibly
expect from me some notice of the insulting
and grossly aspersive letter over the signature
of Jefferson Davis, which yesterday morning
made its appearance in the columns of the
Capitol, though the glaring mendacity of all
the allegations OF fact contained therein might
we'll justify me in treating the letter itself and
its Infamous author with cool and passionless
contempt, yet, for certain reasons, not difficult,
I imagine, to be OWNED, 1 have thought proper
to take "a somewhat different course.
/ shall not now 60 into a detail of past oc-
currences with a view of my own vindication.
1t is not possible for the ruined and disgraced
champion of disunion to say aught of me, or
of my public career, which could in the least
degree disturb my equanimity. He has cher
ished an undying hatred for me ever since his
own presumptuous arrogance, on very noted
occasion, compelled me tc slap his jaws in this
city in the winter of 1S47-4S: The hostility
thus engendered was afterward much heightened
by my defeat of his reasonable aspirations to
the Office of Governor of Mississippi as q .seces-
yielding opposition to him and his nefarious
schemes in Richmond during the war of the
rebellion for three years was not at all calcula-
ted to assuage his enmity. My free, but un-
answered, and venture to say unanswerable,
expositions last summer of his indecent and
seditiaus attempts to keep alive in the bosoms
of his countrymen feelings of irritation and
alienation which ought never to have been
brought into existence, have doubtless much
infamed the malignity which was slumbering
in thesrecesses of heart capable of all mis-
chief,, I;rejoice to know; that the blighting
curse Of Mr.. Davis commendation it never can
now be my i'll fortune to incur. But bid this
mighs5aman of Gath, who writes so blustrously
for publications in the newspapers, that do
not live in absolute concealment; my where
abouts may be easily found by him or his
idolizing confederates. He knows, as thou
sands of others know, that for full twenty years
1 have stood ready to accord to him such salts
faction as he might deem necessary to his deep
ly-wounded honor; and that, whatever general
views may entertain touching the proprietY
of settling such issues as have arisen between
him and myself in the mode referred to, yet
that, from special Difference to him, shall
be altogether induced to make biz an excep-
tional case. The habitual calum niatur of hon
est and patriotic men has no right to skulk
behind the hypocritical pretences of extreme
piety. -..'....--.
