The State Treasurer has announced his
intention to begin the payment of the iu-
terest on the valid bonds of this State to-
day, under the provisions of section Is
of the appropriation bill, which directs
the application of the money in the
treasury for the payment of interest on
the disputed debt to the payment of the
valid interest for this year. Holders OF
the valid bonds will therefore receive
their interest as fast as it natures. The
action of the last Legislature in thus de-
Gliding to make a marked difference be-
tween the two classes Of bonds will scpa-
rate the influence of the bondholders, for
the holders of valid bonds will realize
that they are to be protected without a
doubt, and will therefore cease to trouble
the State, which will regularly pay their
interest. Having satisfied these, we
should next sift the honest portion Of the
bonds classed as invalid from the dishon.
est and pay of the former in new bonds
while we should, and no doubt will, re.
fuse to pay one cent OF that portion ol
the debt which is fraudulent. Thi:
would be just, honorable and equitable
settlement, which the people would en-
dorse and public sentiment at home and
abroad commend.

Senator Blaine, in his speech in the
Senate upon the alleged election frauds
in the South, WAS very severe in his de.
nunciation of the Southern people, and
particularly of South Carolina, which
called forth Senator NJ. c. Buffers maid
en- speech in that body in defense of his
State. Those who know the Senator and
have heard him speak, can we'll imagine
its character and healthy influence upon
public sentiment or The speech the
New York World says:
"As an instrument for the confusion OF
Mr.. Blaine the speech was admirably
prepared, but it vas something more
than that. 1t was not only a manly and
clear defense OF Mr.. Buffers own State,
but cool and courteous one also; and a
Senator from South Carolina is entitled
to unusual credit who could retain his
coolness and his courtesy in defending
his State from charges so monstrous as
have been brought against her for the
purpose of subjecting her again to the
odious and scandalous despotism to
which she vas for ten years subjected.
Governor Hampton will have a worthy
colleague, rs South Carolina real repre-
sentative, in Mr.. Butler"

The Springfield Republican is free
lance in political journalism. 1t bcrates
the South for the alleged election frauds,
and condemns the Democratic party as q
general thing, but sometimes it takes a
glance ut the Republican rascalitics, and
then it speaks out in meeting with refer
ence to the doings of that party. While
in one of these latter moods it character
ICES the assertion of the New York
Tribune that Southern temper and
Southern behavior are growing worse" :"
as an atrocious falsehood, and adds,
"Jay Gould's logic, in this instance, has
f,lsehood for its premises, and the bayo-
net for its ultimate point" We are sur
prised at the Republican for wasting its
time and space in telling the country
what all candid men have long known.
The Tribune would publish falsehood
about the South from preference, even if
the truth would serve its ends equally
we'll.

Congress rc-asscmbles on the 7th inst,
and the session will probably be an i'm
portant one, as several bills of great pub.
lie interest are now pending, especially
the bill regulating presidential elections,
which was discussed last session, and has
been very generally commented upon by
the press throughout the land. That
there ought to be change of the electo-
raj system has been fully shown by the
troubles which followed the last election,
and Congress ought to remedy the evils
of the present system, so as to prevent a
repetition of such crimes in tho future,
but we fear that in the present state OF
party feeling nothing can be done with
this bill. The session ends on the 4th OF
March, and will therefore be what is
termed the short session. In all Proba-
bility, however, the Senate will be con,
vencd in extra session to consider execu-
tive business, and, if so, the Democrats
will have the majority, and the President
pro TEN. of that body will after that date
be Democrat. Hence, should there be
failure to elect the next President by
vote of the people and tic in the vote
in the House of Representatives, a:
would probably be the case, whoever j;
elected President pro tenn. of the mex
Senate would become President of the
United States.

'.'he final adjournment of the Legisla-
ture before the Christmas holidays is a
step in the right direction, and shows
that the Democratic party will continue
to reform past abuses until it gets the
government down to proper economy.
The previous Legislature could not do
this in consequence Of the vexed ques-
tions it had to settle, but the time has
come when the Legislators, by dilligent
work, can do all that is necessary in a
four weeks session, and they should not
take longer. The country wants only
such changes as are necessary until We
can have constitutional convention
The work of the past session has been
both arduous and important, and the
people may rest assured that the men,
bers of the General Assembly worked
most diligently to secure an adjourn
ment before the Christmas holidays.
This has been accomplished, and in do
ing it legislative expenses have been re-
duced from Sl25, 900 to $4,000.

Gen. Eppa Hunton, one Of Yirginia's
representatives in Congress, is cndeavor-
ing to induce that body to repay to bis
State the money she advanced to the
General Government in the war of 1872
with Great Britain. Maine, Massachu-
sets and Maryland have been paid over
100000 on account of their loans to
Ehe General Government, while Virginia,
South Carolina, Georgia, and other States,
have never been reimbursed. 1t is to be
hoped that our representatives in Con-
gress will assist Gen. Hunton, and try to
have South Carolina's claim paid also.
1t is true that the claim of these Stntes
is "a Southern war claim" but then it is
war claim which even the vindictive
Mr.. Blaine could hardly class as unpa-
triotic. Maine has been paid, and of
course the State from which the Senator
halls would not have received payment
unless it was just, and therefore we pre-
sumo that he will find neither nullilica-
ton, treason nor rebellion in our part of
it. The money would come to South
Carolina now as timely boon, and could
be placed to very great advantage in
assisting to solve the difficult financial
problem which confronts our people.

The Republicans have about decided,
it is thought, to run Grant as their next
candidate for the presidency, and in
order to prepare public sentiment in hi,
favor he will return to America in the
spring or early summer. When he lands
in San Francisco he will be most gor-
geously received, as his friends intenl to
expcnd about million dollars to secure
a proper demonstration in his behalf.
Then in New York a reception to cost
some two million dollars will be given
him, and another to cost a million more
in Philadelphia with numerous magnif-
cent, though less expensive, ones in
other cities. Grant will represent the
Northern capitalists, and they propose
spending their money freely in produc-
ing an enthusiasm for him, feeling that
if elected he will amply reimburse them.
If, however, the Democrats nominate
such man as Senator Bayard all the
money Grant could command would not
produce as mnch enthusiasm as the sim
pie magnetism which ticket headed by
an honest man would possess.

The Senate committee appointed to
investigate the alleged frauds in the late
Southern elections, under Mr.. Blainc's
resolutions, consists of the following
Senators: Messrs. Teller, Cameron of
Wisconsin, Kirkwood, Hoar and McMil-
Ian, as Republicans, and afcssrs. Bayard,
Wallace, Bailey and Garland, as Demo-
Gratis. This committee has to sit with
closed doors or in secret session, but with
such men as represent the Democratic
party upon it, there will be very little
opportunity for the Radicals to obtain
any other advantage from this course of
investigation than that the secret sessions
will induce hundreds of Radical negroes
to swear to outragcs which never existed,
believing that they will never be discov-
cred in their perjury. The committee
also meets difficulty in beginning its
work, which is rather embarrassing.
They have been appointed to investigate
but no money has been appropriated to
pay for the investigation, and unless the
Senate decides to appropriotes money to
pay these expenses, it is not likely to
amount to much of an investigation after

The news that Governor Hampton has
so far recovered as to be considered out
of danger gladdens every true Caroli-
MANS heart. He is able to sit up in his
chair, ond has been out upon his piazza
enjoying the sunshine. Our people
should feel profoundly thankful to the
Great Ruler of the Universe for sparing
the life of such noble and useful pub
lie servant. The indications are that he
will be able to attend the extra session
of the Senate IN March should one be
called. South Carolina will then have
two able and influential representatives
in the Senate, both of whom have made
themselves illustrious and beloved both
in war and in peace. 1t will also be re-
markable that both of our Senators have
lost one leg. This is the only State
which has had such coincidence since
the formation of the government.

The Florida Board of State Canvassers
completed the official count of the Con-
gressional election in that State, and in
the District where it was thought the
Republicans had elected their Congress
man, the result has given the election to
Hull (Democrat) by 13 majority. The
returns from Brevard County, which
went Democratic, were thrown out on
the ground that the returns were fraudu-
lent, and the County Returning Board
have been arrested and lodged in Jail
upon this charge in default of bail. The
returns from Madison County, which
went Republican, we're thrown out be-
cause one precinct was not reported.
The result of this decision will give the
electoral vote of Florida to the Demo-
Gratis, if the next Presidential election
should be thrown into the House of Rep
resentatives.

The canvass for Governor OF Ohio,
which is to come of this year, is already
beginning to elicit considerable interest
in political circles. 1t is of very great
Importance to each political party that it
should be successful in carrying this elec-
ton, with view to securing the advantage
success would give to it in the presiden-
tial canvass, and for this purpose each
party is already casting about for its
strongest man. The Republicans speak
freely of running Hon. John Sherman,
Secretary of the Treasury, and it is
thought he would be willing to accept
the nomination. He would have the
support of the monied influences, and
would be a decidedly strong candidate.
On the Democratic side Mr.. Thurman
has been the favorite candidate with the
politicians, but he refuses positively to
run, as he says, "that the interests of the
party do not require him to make that
race, and that certainly his OWN well.be-
ing requires that he should not undergo
the trial and strain of mind and body
that a canvass for that Office would me-
cessitate." 1t is known that Mr.. Thur
man is one of the strongest men that will
be placed before the Democratic Con-
vention for the presidential nomination,
and he fears to make the gubernatorial
race, for if he should fail he would not
only lose his senatorial position, but
would destroy bis prospect for the presi-
dency. These considerations are, no
doubt, the weighty ones with him in
reaching his decision on this subject and
his positive declination will assuredly
bring some score of aspiring Democrats
to the front who will be willing to serve
their party as leader in this important
struggle. IfOhio should be carried for
the Democrats, it would improve Mr..
Thurman's prospects for the presidency /;
while if it is carried for the Republicans,
it will almost assuredly secure the nomi-
nation Of an Eastern man as the Demo-
cratic presidential candidate.

Senator David Davis, of Illinois, has
introduced a bill recognizing the federal
judiciary system; by which nine addi-
tional Circuit Judges would have to be
appointed. The present system is very
oppressive to many Of the poor people
who are so unfortunate as to be involved
in litigation in this Court, either upon
the civil or the criminal side of the
Court, and it should be thoroughly re-
modled; but Congress seems unwilling
to take a step which would devolye upon
Mr.. Hayes the appointment of nine ad-
ditional Judges. This consideration is a
wise one on the part of Congress, for the
people of the Union feel that there are
plenty of the actors in the Presidential
fraud who are now in Office without
creating new judgeships for Mr.. Hayes
to reward others of his chums.
