The followi1E article from the New
York Sun deseraes unqualified comdsm-
nation, for tits both insolent to the South
end without justification in the facts. If
Che Sta Is only as true to Democracy as
the South Is there will bo no complaint
as 70 its course. This paper, however,
seoms to take plea-nye in abusing the
s1ath and our people whenever oppoitu-
nifty affords, and has done the Democrat.
ic party and the country as much harm
as any paper.. the country by It's per-
sistent abuse and Misrepresentation. The
article given below is o fair sample OF
the fabrications which emanate from it's
columnS:
Mr.. Don Cameron was made Chairman
of the Republican National COMMITTEES,
not only because he is bold, rich aad
powerful, but because no Is personally on
tho best of terms with many Of the South
ern leaders. This is remarkable, but it
is also true. He wines and dimes them,
apd transports them free TO horse races
ahd other entertainments.
Besides, Mr.. Cameron Is always ready,
as his father was before him, to grind q
little axe for any of them in q strait; to
get an appointments caade, contract pro-
tected, or q railroad pass provided.
Those who think these relations Of no
importance may remember how he
shouldered into tho Republican Senate
Gen. Butler, of aouth Carolina, when all
the organs were denouucing him as the
author of the Hamburg massacre.
The conspirators of the third term look
forward to @ period in their game when
they may need Southern support, and in
case IL should be necessary to count
Grant in, and seat him by force, they
want the Confederate loDg-swords on
their side. This IL The meaning of the
Grant demonstration among the worst of
the late rebels.
With the existing Administration with
the regular army under Sherman aud
Sheridan, and tho flower Of the Confed.
eratc brigadiers, the conspirators think
they would be strong enough to defy the
people, North as we'll as South. The
Confedorates traded with Hayes, and
why should they not trade with Grant?

Considerable comnotica has been ere

that she seppiy Billewss incorsactly On.
rolled. and so ratified and approved, con.
taining the senato's amendments to the
House bill, which were as follows First,
/ ssate tax, II mills, instead Of 1s mills
second, no tax TO pay back indebtedness
1 of Marion County, and third, $1,000 Gcr
the fourth Briga3e OF Charleston. These
firgt and third amendments were, on mo.
ton Of Mr. Murray, not agreed to, and
the second was. on motion of Mr. Moody,
| not agreed TO. In this shape confer.
ence Comrlittee on the part of the two
Houses was appointed, colHistlng Of
Messra. John B. Cleveland, T. @. Moody
and w. 9. Brown on part Of the House,
and two Senators, who agreed to recede
from the Senate amendments, and the
report of thio committee was adopted by
both Houses, SO that the amendment.
gere stricken out. The bill was then, 10 the
Senate, ordered to be changed to an Act
and enrolled for ratification. This was
done. and the Committee on Enrolled Acts
reported Improperly enrolled and ready for
ratific.t :, upon which the President Of
tho Senate end Speaker of the House, in
accordance with the rules, ratified the
the Act. T. was then presented TO the
Governor aud approved by him, two days
after which 1t was discovered the Bill
had been ratified end approved in diff
fere form from that in which it was
passed. This presents the question as to
whether the Act Is valid or not, inas-
much as it is not approved in the shape
in which IL passed. Thoso who contend
for It's validity claim that 1t is esscnti.
ally the Bill as passed, and that the evi-
dences of It's genuine ,ss being its ratifi-
cation and approval are such as to give
IL validity, although irregularities have
attended Its enrolment, while those who
contond against it claim that it is no Act
at all, inasmnch as It did not pans the
Legislature in tho way that It was ratified
and approved. The question has not
been discussed at very great length in
any Of the papers, except tho Register,
which desirea an extra session of the
Legislature TO correct the sTroT. This
will hardly be called, however, for the
cost of bringing the Legislature together
would amount nearly as much as the
additional tax, and If tho session should
laSt ton days OF two weeks it would
amount to considerably more than the
additional tax. The law wis, therefore,
coupon the statute books and he enfnrc-
ed In lis erroneous form; for it is cheaper
10 do this than to assemble tho Legisla-
tufe to correct it.

The Senate committee, with General
Taft as chairman, appointed at the first
session of the last Legislature to invest.
gate tho investigating committee, Of
which Senator Cochran was chairman,
reported just before the adjournment OF
the Legislature, completely endorsing
tbs committee and approving of IFS work.
1t seems that there was q difference be-
tween Taft and Mr.. Cochran, which led
the former to desire to catch the latter in
come irregularity in th' work OF the in.
yestigating committee. In order to do
this he had committee appointed TO
overlook the accounts end work of that
committee. II seems that largo
amount Of the testimony was copied in
the handwriting of a member of Mr.
Cochran's family, and Mr.. Taft expected
to show that large sums Of money had
been paid for this work, while the testi-
mony and vouchers showed that IL had
been done gratuitously, and that the
State actually owed NJ Cochran bal.
ance on the compens. lion provided for
the committee. The report OF the COM
mittee was adopted by the Senate, and
thus the investigating committee has
been vindicated and Mr.. Taft completely
foiled in his expectation of involving Mr..
Cochran.
