YORKVTLLE. S. c.:
THURSDAY MORNING, JAN. Is, 1879.
THE BONDED DEBT,

So soon as the order of Judge Bryan, Of
the United States Court, restraining the State
Treasurer from paying the interest on the
recognized debt was served on the State Treas
urer, the matter was submitted to Attorney
General Youmans for consideration and such
action as he may deem necessary in the prem
ises. At latest advices the attorney. general
had the subject under consideration, and has
not yet announced an opinion or indicated
what course he will pursue.
For several days after the injunction was
granted, it was rumored that an extra session
of the legislature would be necessary in order
that steps might be taken to protect the cred
it of the State, in so far as to provide for the
prompt payment of the interest on the re-
cognized debt. Now, however, that idea
seems to have been abandoned, and the indi-
cations are that the conflicting bond interests
will be allowed to fight the matter out in the
courts. The Columbia correspondent of the
Nesus and Courier has interviewed" Acting
Governor Simpson on the subject of an extra
session of the General Assembly. The Gov.
ernor expresses the hope that there will be no
necessity for an extra session, at least, to take
any action in consequence of the injunction
recently granted by Judge Bryan. The re-
port of the interview continues:
''He seems to think that this injunction,
when it comes to be discussed, will be dis
solved in time for the relief of the people. His
view is that the Court, before it acts, must
both have case and proper parties. In this
matter he is of the opinion that the parties
applying for injunction have no case. A case
could only arise on contract, and he thinks
there was not a contract between the State
and the bondholders in reference to this mon
ey remaining in the treasury. 1t was put
there, in the first instance, by the State for it's
own convenience, and not under contract with
the bondholder, and the State can divert it at
pleasure, especially, as in this instance, when
the State also resolved to provide for these
bonds when they might be established as legal
and valid. The Governor suppcses that the
holders of the valid bonds, who are more deep
ly interested than any other parties, will assist
the attorney-general in making motion to
dissolve the injunction.'

and being sharp.edged, had cut the flesh, and
the blood had got into the bronchial tubes,
filling them, rendering breathing almost i'm.
possible. After the nutshell had been re-
moved, the patient coughed up large guam
tity Of this blood. The wound having been
sewn up, he breathed quite freely, and at last
accounts he was rapidly recovering.

gion of the throat, receiving flesh wound.
Pagan is a barber connected with shop in
Yorkville. The difficulty in which he was
wounded originated over a trivial business

the former was severely cut in the head and

About / O'Clock this morning, the residence
of Mrs Julia Rainey, on Y York street, was dis
covered to be in flames There seems to be no
doubt that it was plundered and set on fire, as
the family have been absent from home for
the past week or two and the doors were
found open, and besides, the fire seems to
have originated in the upper story Of the build
ing. The loss is estimated at about 81, 800, on
which there is no insurance.

fire, in passing photographers tent, tripped

act.
- The recently elected directors of the State
Penitentiary, have determined to inaugurate
a most desirable reform in regard to the COM
fort and health of the inmates of that ins,itu-
ton. 1t has been the custom heretofore to
allow railroads and other contractors to ex-
change all invalid and ill.used convicts for
sound and able.b bodied ones The result of
this arrangement has been that the convicts
have been overworked and ill.treated to such
an extent as to cause a rate of mortality
that approached thirteen per cent; last year,
Gone hundred and six having died out Of
about six hundred) It is now made to the
interest of the contractors to provide for the
health and comfort of the prisoners in their
charge and to further the same end, the gu.
perintendent Of the prison will be required to
make frequent and unexpected visits to the
various places where they are employed, for
the purpose of personal inspection as to their
treatment. No prisoner can be returned to
the penitentiary henceforth until the time Of
the contract under which he was hired shall
have expired. Contractors will presumably
be more humane, in order to save doctors
bills and to get the most work out of them.
