Taxes for 1877.

This is a question of vital import
ance and n proper attention to the
assessment and the equalization of
valuation throughout the entire
county is deserving of the most
serious consideration. We speak
advisedly when we state that under
a former law regulating assessment,
we have known rich districts to fall
off; and this loss to have been not
only madeupbyan increase in Valu-
alton, butSO much mOreSO as to make
the grand total foot up and show a
decided increase in the county. JUS
tice may sleep, but is it fair to make
the poor districts make up this loss.
Below we give an extract from the
new assessment law and we feel sat
isfied that the present board of
equalization will give to the entire
county Just and fair assessment.
If any person feels himself agrieved
the law gives the means of redress
to which we call your attention
SEC. 4. Be il further enacted, that the as
/ SCISSORS shall complete their assessments on
/ or before the first Monday in June of each
I wear, and on that day shall meet at the
! Courthouse Oftheir respective counties, and
/ shall organize as Board of Equalization /;
and when organized, shall make such eX-
/ aminatiOns, comparisons, corrections and
] alterations as may be necessary TO pro-
! duce fair and just equalization OF the as
. seSSmentS in the several districts and wards
in said county.
SIC ,. Be il further enacted, that If any
I person shall conceive himself aggrleVed by
any assessment, he shall present the matter
I to said Board by petition or otherwise; and
I If il shall appear TO a majority of said Board
that the assessment complained OF Is errO-
| neOuS, improper, or unequal, when taken in
/ connection with other assessments in the
same district, the proper correction shall be
made; and having completed said equaliza-
ton, the aSSeSSorS shall sign and return their
respective lists TO the clerk of the County
Court, on or before the 18th day of June OF
each year, proCided: the quarterly Court
. shall have authority to hear and determine
applications in regard TO alleged erroneous
| assessments, after the assessors shall have
I made their returns 10 said clerk.

Patterson's Case.

Senator Crittendon on NTondy in
the Senate roso to question of
privilege. A despatch sent from
Columbia by j. G. Thompson, of
Unio',- Herald famo, to tho Now
York Times and copied without
comment by tho Columbia Register,
was the special grievance. The
chief point of tho dispatch was that
Governor Hampton had asserted
that no compromise would bo mado
by tho Administration with Pattor-
son; but the portion to which
Senator Crittondon excepted was
that in which tho article alleged that
Senator Butler Oh reaching Colum~
bin had "promptod Senator Cittcn-
don to oppose any action" on tho
resolution to forward by Senator
Butler the proof of Patterson's guilt
to the United States Senate. He OK
cepted also to tho allegation that
"some of tho haser class of Demo-
Gratis had shown a disposition to
to help Senator Butler" Senator
CritLendon branded as falso tho
charge that no had boon "promptcd,"
or that he had spoken at all upon
tho resolution. Flo believed, how
ever, that tho courts wore the proper
vehicle tosecure the punishment of
Patterson, aud for this reason he
recommended that the Senate have
nothing to do with it. Col.
Crittenden had also something to
say against the Register for publish
ing this extract without commopt,
