One OF The very best signs Of the
times is the growing disposition Of
the people to look to their public in
terests, and especially to the manner
Of the disbursement Of the public
moneys, lis a good omen Of i'm
provement IA all branches Of govern
meut, and the bapishment Of waste
and corruption. 1t is right that they
should look carefully TO these mat
ters, rnd hold their public servants
to a strict accountability, Under a
system Ike oars, WHORE every man
has personal interest D The conduct
OF governmental affairs, . is fatal to
tho general veal, for citizens to be-
como careless and indifferent to mat
tels which so nearly concern thom,
The general demand for rotrench-
ment, economy and reform should
he strictly enforced, and the people
should sec 70 Il that their treasure is
guarded Wastefulnoss aud oxtray-
aganca prodnco corruption, debt,
and general decentralization, and each
Of these has its natural following Of
sorrow, depression and calamity
The press Of the country has, for
somO time past, been doing giant
work in behalf OF the people in this
connection, Its fearless exposure Of
fraud and peculaGon and discussions
of all proposed measures, have had
most statutory effect Let the press
keep the facts before the public, and
let the people think and act upon
them, and the country is safe.

AT THE recent session of the United
States Circuit Court at Charleston, S. c.,
Judge Bond sentenced thirty-one Illicit
distillcrs from the counties OF Greenville
and Spartanburg alone. Too much praise
cannot he bestowed upon Collector L. Cass
Carpenter and the United States Marshal,
Col. Robert N. Wallace, for the efficient
service rendered in bringing these VIC
lators of the law TO justice. Collector Car
penter has thus far succeeded in breaking
mp one hundred and thirty distilleries, and
bringing the distillers to trial. A careful
estimate shows that these concerns were
capable of furnishing fully one thousand
three hundred gallons OF whisky each day,
which was sold, and the Government de-
frauded out of $l,170, that being the
amount of tax on the quantity mentioned
at ninety cents per gallon. These distil-
leries have been found in the counties of
Greenville, Spartanburg and Pickens,
among the ravines and gorges of the Blue
Rdge. Col. Carpenter has proven emf
nently successful in ferreting out these
transgressoIs, and has performed the best
work done in South Carolina since Col.
Wallace, when in charge of the Revenue
Department in that district, destroyed
eighty -four distillerIes in the shoIt space of
fourteen days. The President and Com
missioner Pratt, in declining to remove Mr..
Carpenter from his position as Collector of
the mountainous region oc South Carolina,
have now the satisfaction of beho,ding the
happy results of his labors.

ANDREW JACKSON AND HENRY A. WISE.

letter is addressed to CDR. A. Y. p. Gar
nett, of Washington, D. c." By the latter
it is introduced in the Capital by the fol-
lowing
"The letter of General jackson, whilst
President of the United States, addressed to
Mr.. Wise, as chairman of an investigating
committee, has been recently published by
some OF the Radical papers of this city with
much apparent satisfaction and comfort, and
as have every reason to believe that dH in
tense and interruptions partisan spirit controls
entirely tie outgivi'tgs Of those papers upon all
subjects political, addressed note to Mr..
Wise, requesting him to furnish me with the
circumstances as Hiey really occurred. His re-
ply contains not only tie facts inmediately re-
fdfilg 70 the letter Of General Jackson, but other
political incidents of historic interest, and de-
fines his true relation to the different political
parties since 1890, 1rlIieh eTtibits remarkable
fsstdNcs of political consistency aud fidelity 10
priac:pie, the assertions OF his enemies to the
contrary notwithstanding"
The impression manifestly intended to
