last night, ut the Markham House,
the committee examined Mr.. Hemp
hill, of the Constitution, in relation to
the charge TINT he had received So,
900 from the lcssces Of the Western
Atlantic Railroad for aidingin the
procurement Of the lease. Upon the
direct question being put, Mr.. Hemp
hill stated that lie, had received that
amount Of money. This settles the
question ut issue, and establishes the
fact, beyond peradvtnture, that the
lease was iraudulcntly obtained.
In the course Of the examination Of
Governor Brown last night, he stated
to the committee that S21 900 had
been used in the procurement of the
lease Of the State Road. He stated
that there was great deal o opp ,>i-
ton to the lease, and he thouyht it
was right and proper to use the mon
cy to secure it. lie mentioned, among
the papers to whom money had been
paid, the Macon Telegraph and 4ics-
sc"ycr, the Augusta Constiutionaiia,
Columbus papers, and stated tha,
about $1,000 had been paid to the
country press, though did not name
the papers. He also stated that an
editor, row dead, had been paid mon
cy to advocate it, and that j. Clark
Swayzc, who edited IL Radical paper
at Macon, had been paid 'norcy for
the same purpose. Mr.. Knight; an
attorney, had also been paid to a,lvo
cate it. We regret that the names Of
all parties who had received money
for that purpose were not given, but
We suppose that they will at once de-
clare themselves, as they consider
that nothing discrcditablc is attached
to it,"

Charleston.

Instead Of Q! per cent. lax Tor the
city Of Charleston rs was first pro
pos d, the Council has lowered it to
2 per cert. The hcms and C"u,icr is
delighted over tile future Of Charles
ton, aud discourscs MS follows upon the
subject:
eve congratulate the Charleston
public NEST heartily upon the rcluc.
ton Of the City tax for 1876 to two
per cent. Last year and the preccd-
ing year the tax was hpo and halt
per cent. The reduction Of one half
per cent. is equal to at least $50 900.
This large sum is saved to the people,
in this distressing year, by the action
of the City Council last night. The
manner Of doing it was not precisely
what we desired; but n handsome
reduction in expenses is effected, and
the long stride forward now made will
enable the City Council to 90 still
farther next year.
Good faith is the sscncc OF success
in politics MS in private life; and The
municipal administration lave
strengthened themselves immensely
by proving that they intend to fulfil
their promises to the letter.
The Charleston public will breathe
more freely to-day. There will be
renewed confidence and cheerlulncss
everywhere, and VIC look forward with
hope to that advance in the value Of
real property which, i'll the opinion
of the wcalihicst merchant in Charles
ton, will follow swiftly after economi-
cal administration aud n tax Of two

su;hern Life Insurance Company

We have strong suspicion that
when The affairs Of this Company
have been properly investigated, the
chief cause Of the disaster will be
traced to the incompctcncy of its
officials. From an erroneous con
ccption Of cxpcdicncy OH the part Of
those who controlled its drstincs, that
corporation, like many other business
institutions in he South, was managed
in great part by gentlemen who owed
their influence almost wholly to the
fact that they had acquired celebrity
in other walks Of lifc-most Of them,
indeed, in positions which we're utterly
foreign i'll their nature and scope to
the mcthactical and economic ud-
ministration by means Of which alone
can substantial success ensure to en-
tcrprises like the one in point. OF
course this view is purely conj'ctu Ill
on our part, but it is the fruit ofour
observation Of the mistaken policy
which has hccn pursued, with great
unanlmity, BY Southern enterprises
Of a corporate character since the
close Of The var. There has been Il
strong tendency TO reward gallantry
in the field by bcstowing upon its
cxponcnts ihc sweets Of civil office.
Nor is that at all reprchcnsible. 1t
is both natural and proper that they
who barred their bosoms to the storm
Of battle, should sit under the choi.
ccst vine and fig tree when peace has
supervcncd. Neither the vine nor the
fig tree, however, should subsist by
sapplng their ncighbors, anymore
than should man be assumed to be
competent for the discharge Of oncr-
Gus duties III an unfamiliar position
simply because he has been success
full in another and different sphere Of
action. And ta.is is especially true in
reference to official responsibilities
which have III their province the inter
ests and fortunes Of the community
at large. In such cases, the utmost
discretion should obtain in the selcc-
tion Of these officers. Competency
should be the test; not chivalry. That
is a truth too plain 10 need elabora-
ton, and yet it's every day ignored.
Hence follo'ws-as with This Company
-fif$t, embarrassment; then misgiv-
mgs,. then bankruptcy. And 50 it
will always be until we learn to value
oar enterprises Morc by results acliv-
cd through Legitimate channels, than
by the cclat which comes adventurous
ly from their being hcraldcd by any
persons, be they rs respectable, dis
tinguishcd or titled rs they may.

STUMBLING TOWARD THE LIGHT.

House Bill No. Ill provides that the
voters in each precinct at each general
election may vote for or against license
to sell intoxicating liquors; No. 10 is
to prevent the sale of liquor to minors !;
No. 126 requires an applicant for a
liquor license to procure the signatures
of a majority of citizens, men and
aOonlen, in his precinct, before such Ii
cense shall be granted.
1t is an encouraging sign to see that
at least some members who present
bills recognize women as citizens, and
realize, however dimly, that the evils
of intemperance will never even be sub
dued, not to say eradicated, until wOm-
en-, the greatest sufferers from its fierce
blight, shall have power to join their
voices with those of men and say to this
insidious monster, "Thus far shalt thou
go, and no farther" Don't you see,
sisters, that our brethren are stumbling
toward the light? Let US thank God
and take courage.

REMEMBER.

DISTINGUISHED citizens of Multnomah
county, intelligent women of Portland,
remember that two of the men who as
sumo to represent you in the State Leg
islature would deny you even the right
of petition, and their names are David
GoOdSeU and R. III. Love. Bear this in
mind, and the next time these men offer
themselves as sham representatives for
US, let us make them feel power that
they now seek to ignore-a demand that
they, invested with little brief author
ity, seek to silence. Remember that
these men seek to deny US the right of
presentations right inestimable to
all lovers of liberty, and formidable
only to tyrants. Remember also that
J. NJ. Scott and Gideon Tibbets respond
"aye" when asked to give consideration
and proper attention to the claims
which we, in the name of liberty and of
justice, make and seek opportunity to
urge. Remember this, you who object
to being placed in the political category
with idiots, paupers, lunatics, and GRIM
inals, and if you are not permitted a
vote in the next general election, make
use of your Influence" that subtle
power of which we hear so much, to
