ROCK INSTRUMENTATION
a Rash Poet.

From the London Telegraph.
History affords two or three examples
OF challenges to the duello having been
lnterchanged by hot-headed monarchs,
eager to fight out state quarrels in person.
1t has, however, been reserved Bjorp
sterne Biornson, the celebrated Swedish
dramatic author, to furnish amazed society
with precedent for the defiance to NOR
tai combat OF a reigning sovereign by one
OF his own subjects King Oscar, IL, of
Sweden. is literary man OF some note in
his native country. He writes ballads and
sonnets. aud contributes elaborate criti-
cislns of poetical and dramatic works to a
well known bi-monthly review, published
10 bis capital. 1t appears that, short
time ago, he cut W one OF Bj0rnson's
plays somewhat ruthlessly 10 this periodi-
cal. whereupon the Infatuated poet wrote
to him In good set terms, demanding
public apology tor the unwarrantable on
slaught committed upon the offspring Of
his genius by the royal critic or personal
satisfaction upon the field of honor King
Oscar. entertained a Strong objection to
either proposition. handed over Biornson's
letter to the State Prosecutor, who
traightway entered an action for treason
against the writer in the Stockholm Crimi-
nal Court. This prosaic method of deal
ing with himcaused Bjornson to quitSweden
10 so prompt and secret manner that his
most Intimate friends were unaware of his
departure untii they received letters from
him, written at Vienna, Informing them
that for urgent private reasons he had
resolved to take sd MS abode IN the A US
trian capital 1t seems improbable that
he will return to Sweden for the present.

The following explains Itself, and
is published to show how the British
Lion has been stirred up. 1t is very
amusing:
TO the Editor Of the Ne,o YORK.
.Herdld: 1t appears, from the virulcnt
attacks made in morning contcmpo-
rary, that the proposal Of Cyrus w.
Field, to erect a monument to Major
Andre, tho British spy, is not favora-
bly, received by the so-called American
people. 1t is strange that a pcople
such as the Americans, who arc tho
rifiraifand descendants Of the scum of
Europe, should object to have a
monument raised to tho memory of a
good Englishman who used all his
efforts to help tho supremacy of
British power in this country. And
had the English been then successful,
had they suhjugatcd the colonists,
there would not be to-day such villany
and corruption in this upstart, mush-
room country. That tritc old saying,
"Put beggar on horseback, &C., Is
applicable to tho people of this coun-
try. Having obtained their indie
pcndcncc, they angor tho gods by their
national impudence and pomposity.
Yours respectfully, A Britishcr.

having the subsequent right to any
remedy now given by low. Tho bills
will be returned to the parties. Sixty
days are allowed from tho oath Of
December for redemption, after which
lands not thus redeemed will bo sold.
In consequence Of this, many
taxpayers in Charleston havo re-
doomed their bills and paid in good
money, most of them without protest,
as they got clear receipt in making
none. In consequence of this action
the bills have gone down in tho
market to forty cents on tho dollar.
AS the State offers to fund them at
fifty ocnts, it is not probable that any
moro will be rendered for taxes,
especially rs tho holders arc now re-
quircd to pay in good money as we'll
as in bills, with the ultimate prospect
of having the former refunded, il tho
court decides in favor Of tho genuine
ness Of the bank bills.

LEGISLATION ON THE STATE DRBr.-
Three Acts wcrc passed at the recent
session of the Legislature relating to
tho public debt.
The first Of these is can Act to OK
tend the time for funding the unques-
tionablc debt Of this State" end its
effect is simply to continue the funding

the important difference that tho inter
est must be funded up to July l, 1879,
instead of UP to January l, 1874.
The second is can Act to provide
for the funding of the interest past
due on the valid Consolidation debt of
the State" This Act provides that
the State treasurer shall receive from
the holders, willing to surrender the
same, all unpaid coupons and interest
orders due prior to January /, 1879,
Oh tho Consolidation bonds and GER
tiiicates of stock issued nnder the Con-
solidation Act, which are recognized
IA valid, and to give in lieu thereof
coupon bonds or certificates, equal in
amount to the face value of the cou-
pons or interest orders so surrcn-
dcrcd.
The third is can Act to amend an
act TO provide for tho settlement Of the
unt'lndcd debt Of the State, incurred
before the 1st Of November, 1876"
This Act continues in force Comis-

"Is you de capt'in OBJ do kears 2

"Don't want TO tor hire any deck

"Nol I'm not running steam

"Zactly Mout I ride straddle oil

Use busted, an long ways from

"Get on. All aboard!"
And tho negro straddled tho cow
catcher. Ed. Gilligan pulled tho
throttle wide open, and the train
had not gone more than half mile
before tho engine collided with a
cow, throwing it over fence into
q cornfleld, and the negro after the
COW. Next day, coming down, the
negro imped up to Jase at the same
depot, and said
"Boss, I didn't ride fur wild yer
