BDIToRs CHRONICLE: At l o'clock
to-day, it was announced that there
would be public speaking at the court
house, the County Court having adj
journed. Ina short time a small crowd
had gathered in the court room, aud
William Is. Carter arose 10 address
them.
lie said he was not before them to
make political speech. Did not wish
10 address them ns Radicals, nor ~
Democrats, nor rs Conservative linton
men, but ~ citizens; he wished to talk
to them upon great principles, which
concerned all of them.
After dwelling for short time upon
the hardness of the times and the scar
city of money, he said that he would
explain the reason why we ARE so OPP
pressed. He emphatically denied that
the high taxes had anything to do with
making times hard. Said that they
were mere drops in the bucket. How
prepnslCrOus it was for him to attempt
to defend even what the Odious Porter,
the Democratic candidate for Cover
nor, refuses TO endorse. He assailCd
the tariff law, and charged that it il
oppressive and unjust, "a great by
draulic pump which il pumping the
people dry He said he was reared
an Old Line Wing, and was indie
triHUted in the principles of henry
Clay. He surely has departed long
ways from his early training tie as
sumed to say, that IL Hehry Clay lived
to-day he would oppose and denounce
the tariff He must br wiser than
solomon, 10 know the sentiments of
those who sleep in the tomb. Does
any reasonable man suppose that
Henry Gay would, were ne living, de-
nuuucp the very doctrine he originated
aud enforced with 80 much force and
energy lpOn the minds of the Amer
can people, He was not like Nr. Car
ter, advocate "a set of principles for 20
while, aud then turn around and de-
uOunuC them as false aud untrue. lie
would not murder his own offspring
The speech was an uudprhaudpd
stroke at Grants administration and
the Republican party. He tried to
sugar coat the corruption of the state
Government, huF he could not quite
cover the long rough corners, such as
the Odiuus Funding Bill, Asses mout
Law, and the sale of the Comptroller
ship. These things would stick out.
He did not meet the issue gQuartly,
but sought to deceive the people under
the covert of " strict aCiFujtV, and
HOHDQytisunism.V But the Rrpuhli-

City Coup0ns.

Mr.. EDITOR: The affairs OF the city OF
Columbia are attracting the attention OF
those who have to pay the taxes, and
especially OF those who hold6city bonds.
The bonds have fallen in value because
the coupons are not paid. There is
levy of tax for interest. What be.
comes OF it? If the coupons were
regularly paid the bonds would soon be.
come valuable. The tax just collected
mas, IN great measure, been paid in
city money or in coupons. Is the city
money thus taken in to be re.issu ed
Ihe coupons received Tor taxes have not
been Cancelled. Why not? Hitherto
tho person presenting coupons was ro-
Qulred to write his name on them, aud
to give receipt for go much money re-
ceived from the city. 1t is not the in.
tention of tho writer of this article even
to insinuatc anything wrong against any
official of the city, but it is suggested
that it uny be proper for the City Coun-
cl. to require the coupons received for
taxes 20 be Cancelled publicly. The
coupons are merely littl. slips Of paper
detached frnm The bonds; handful of
them would make large amount of
money. Many taxpayers would feel
better sntistc, if they knew that these
coupons were destroyed or Cancelled.
1t is suggested that tho cAnceling ue
done in public. 1t will satisfy every.
body. Some accident may happen, and
the coupons already received may Gud
their way into the market again. Let
the Council look to this ut once.

The annual meeting of the stockhold.
ers OF the Graniteville Manufacturing
Company was held last Thursday. 1t
was unusually large and altogether bar
monious. The report Of the Presiden nt.
d. Fl. Hickman, Esq, was OF highly
satisfactory character. The company
had passed through the fearful fuan cial
panic with very little loss. The mill
'was run on full time. and the produc.
ton kept under full control, notwith.
standing the extreme stringenoy in
financial and commercial affairs. Not
bale OF goods was sacrificed, and the
average profts Of the year quite salts
factory. The profits derived from sale,
OF goods were Sl66. .443.84, and toto
profits $l86, ,57785; at credit profit and

Referring to o statement of the New
York Graphic that Mr.. Davis was ill in
London with dropsy Of the heart, the
Eicksburg Herald says: We are Satisfied
that the statement of the Graphic is
erroneous. Letters from Mr.. Davis
have been received in this city since his
arrival in Europe, and they make no
mention Of such alarming symptoms.
On the contrary. those letters speak of a
very great improvement in his health,
and breathe an dir of cheerfulness ut.
terly incompatible with the statement
of The Graphic.

The Scheme OF Ncclaimlng the yvaierc,
Swamp Lands.
From communications in the Cumdc1
Journal, of Col. McLaurin, of Sumter
and DR.. Edward M. Boy kin. of Cam
den, We learn that an English company
known as the South Carolina Rice Plan
tation Trust-limited bus been formed
to purchase the overfowcd lands on the
Wateree River, from Camden down te
the junction of that stream with the
Congarec. They purpose to reclaim
these lands and to utilize the immense
quantity of timber upon them. Col
McLaurin says:
"They have already the mouth OF the
Santee River, with about GO, 600 acres ol
lnnd. and are preparing to cut large
canal across into Winyaw Bay, through
which they expect to run millions oi
timber and produce for shipment &c
Europe. They also say they will bring
great many men US luborers and
farmers to this section, and contemplate
manufacturing very extensively, and
want water powers for that purpose
The company is represented by A. Pier.
sou Longbottom, Esq, we'll known
tnancier of London, who will be in thi.
country by the 1st of June, with his
secretary, engineer aud q committee ol

unimproved, into sources Of health,
prosperity, development ard greatness.
Our swamps, he said. are the gold
mines OF our State, far superior to those
of Ophir or Peru. Egypt had bnt one
river to ferhlze her lands, but South
Carolina is divided into innumerable
streams, many of which flow through q
great extent OF country, and bring down
all the formulating properties of the
Nile. "If ever there was country, :"
he said. (which required the fostering
hand OF industry and legislative atten-
ton, and which was capable of repaying
the Industrious laborer hundred. fold,
that country is South Carolina"
We trust that the parties who have
projected this scheme hare the ability.
the means and the enterprise to conduct
it to successful conclusion. The grow
ing scarcity of timber in Europe and in
tho Northern States is operating to di-
rect attention to our abundant supply o!
it. both on uplands and lowlands. The
immense area which may be recovered
to cultivation, and which now is a tax
upon the owners. with other important
features Of the scheme, should command
for it the warmest interest of those
whose locality will enable them to enjoy
some Of its benefits.
