WILLIAMS, BlRNIE. u Co. The press,
: particularly that Of this State, is, at
present, Vory much exercised OVERTIME
apparent failure of, perhaps, the rich
: est man, in South Carolina. There
have been somc very heavy crltlclsms
uDon the conduct Of Mr.. Geo. w
, Williams in the mattor Of the tissolu-
. ton of the firm of Mcssrs. Williams
J.. Birnic g. Co., Of New York. Although
to every honest mind the conduct o.
Mr.. Williams may seem tsttt'
: ".fshy," yet wc do not propose ca
c some our exchanges do) to pronoumct
: him Il real defi'uuder. If Mr.. vi
liam Birnies statement is true, Mr.
Williams is certainly as mean a scoun
;s drcl as any of Scott's CLAM; if it's 40
i true, Mr.. Birnic Should be forced f
L the punishment Of base libel. Nh
lc Williams as,yct has taken no steps t
D. vindicatc himself against the charge
i Of Mrs Biinic. Why not, we ask
o. Does lie think that "thc charges eotU .
