To TIE ,Ep1ToR OF. THE New. YORK
'fNAHJrNR: In your comments upon the
monstrous proposition of the Charleston
Nctcs and Courier to reject Sc, 40O, 900 of
tho bonds Of this State, you say that 50
portion OF these bonds are unquestiona-
bly, fraudulent" My opinion differs
widely FROM yours, and is based no.
upon rumor, bnt upon the most tho
rough knowledge of the Inv authorizing
their issue and of all the facts relating
thereto; and 1 give it as my unqualified
opinion that these bonds arc undues-
tionably valid. legal obligation OF the
State, and that the courts will 80 decide
If they have an opportunity. 1t is a
somewhat remarkable fact that 80 far,
the courts have never been called upon
to sit In judgment upon them.

tive party Of the State, fayors payment
IN fuil OF the old bonds, u scaling of the
new, with exception of the conversion
bonds, to seventy-tive cents on the dol
lar, and q rejection Of tho conversion
bonds altogether.
Evidently politics enter somewhat
into this scheme of adjusting the debt.
Why is the old debt more sacred than
the new?-a question difficult, indeed,
to answer.

it represents we're highly grati6ed, few

FALL OF \ CHURCH FLOOR AT SYRACUSE
.--SYRAcEsE, N. Y, June 23.-Au appalling
"a tastrophe occurred here tonight. A straw
berry festival was being held in the parlor OF
the Central Baptist Church, when, without
any warning, the door gave way, precipitat ting
a room full into the story below. The paror
was on the second floor, and the room UNDER
meath was also full of people.
An alarm of fire was at once given, and the
iremen hurried 10 the scene, and over 10000
people were there, and tremendous excitement
prevailed.
LATER.-The following is a list the bodies
taken out dead: DIR. o. Wainwright, Mrs. Vain
wright, Mrs. Il. Austin Barnes, Mrs. James nj &.
Crow, Mrs. J. i. Kerr, Miss Gussie Carpenter,
Mrs. Abiiah yedder, of Utica, Miss Grace

IL is impossible 10 procure the names of the i'll

battles description. Thousands are gathered
there afking after friends Warrington the dead
or attending to the injured.
The entire police and fire department of tho
city was called out, apd took charge of the
work of recovering the dead and wounded.
The walls of the church did not fall in but are
seriously damaged. The church is comparatively
. new one. few minutes before the floor
gave way it trembled so that many persons left
the room fearing an accident, which had been
predicted by many.
The accident was caused by the giving way
of n joist that supported the floor. The joist
IAN from both sides of the room across stringer,
lhe middle of which was supported by iron rods
from the roof. The stringer gave way, pulling
the ceiling and roof down upon the people and
precipitating them into the room below.
