s r, PUBLIC AUCTION. t CJ t-c Jr. _A ; _ <\ \ Editor Abbeville Press and Banner: On the 21st inst., the State Conven- tion meets to nominate officers. Will the Ring succeed in retaining office ? Have thiyr stolen money enough to purchase the offices again ? The of- fioo of Emperor of the Roman Empire was put up to the highest bidder at pub- lic auction. Julianus purchased it for the price of Jive thousand drachms to cach member of the Prajtorian Guards. He paid the price, but lost liis head and office in sixty days! The thing was so shockingly mon- strous that even the degenerate Ro- mans rose in mass, juuanus paia /us own money,, bat the modern monsters first betray tho people by stealing through tho forms of law, nnd then with t/iQ people's money buy the people's officer again, to enable them to renew the stealing !!

Editor Abbeville Press and Banner: We, togother with some ten or twelve of oar fellow-townsmen, had the pleasure of attondingthe barbecue at Clear SpriDgs on Saturday last, the 17th inst. Our ride to tho place was quite pleasant and romautic; but four of our fellow-citizens had tho misfortune to miss tho way, and did not arrive until 4 P. M.; and for the pleasure of their ride, we are not authorized to speak. Arriving on tho spot about 11 P. M., the first things that greeted oar cars, were the sweet strains of the violin, and the command {tswing cor- ners." We started for the house, and on tho way, passed by the spot where rm fiTAfl An .nn/1 bli\7 vWAiiig nao vrw} wu\4| i«v«m tho quantity in preparation, wiere convinced that the good people of Clear Springs were not unmindful of the oomiorttheir invited guests. - On arriving at the-bniWing, we en- tered and found the youngsters al- ready tripping j^the light fantastic," and we ourselves began to look aroand n <rtn rtnt* on/1 nAni» Qtinrlrv l.t»iolu A ISA V* J/MI Hivi j Mim Mivvt vavotaWj our efforts were crowned witlr suc- cess. , - ... .At 12 At., the pleasing intelligence arrived, that dinner was in waiting for us.

Aug. 21,1872,19-^, 1 -THE OFFICIikL WAR. V j Secretary Cardozo, Governor Scott aud Treasurer Parker havo bcon waging a war of crimination and re- crimination in the public prints, in which the public havo littlo interest save in the exposure of official misman- ageraont. The Secretary charges that the Stato officials have created a now and fraudulent debt of $6,151,397, under cover of the law authorizing the conversion of the outstanding debt. To this chargo the Governur makes no reply, whilst the Treasurer sustains his action by a reference to the "Validating Act, which declares the aforesaid debt "legal and valid." This Yalidating Act is regarded by high legal authority as itself null and void, and ^ seems by its passage to be equivalent to a plea of guilty on the part of the Financial Board. The charge, however, of the Secretary would have been more effectual if made twelve months ago, ana wnen made at so late a day, the Governor and Treasuror may well reply that it is only a bid for office.an attempt to shift responsibility from the shoulders of the Secretary to those of Meijsrs. Scott and Parker.

pleasant and romautic; but four ofour fellow-citizens had tho misfortuneto miss tho way, and did not arriveuntil 4 P. M.; and for the pleasureof their ride, we are not authorized to

speak. Arriving on tho spot about11 P. M., the first things that greetedoar cars, were the sweet strains of theviolin, and the command {tswing cor-

ners." We started for the house, andon tho way, passed by the spot where

-THE OFFICIikL WAR.V j

Secretary Cardozo, Governor Scottaud Treasurer Parker havo bconwaging a war of crimination and re-crimination in the public prints, inwhich the public havo littlo interestsave in the exposure of official misman-ageraont. The Secretary charges thatthe Stato officials have created a now

and fraudulent debt of $6,151,397,under cover of the law authorizingthe conversion of the outstandingdebt. To this chargo the Governurmakes no reply, whilst the Treasurersustains his action by a reference tothe "Validating Act, which declaresthe aforesaid debt "legal and valid."This Yalidating Act is regarded byhigh legal authority as itself null andvoid, and

^seems by its passage to be

equivalent to a plea of guilty on the

part of the Financial Board. The

charge, however, of the Secretarywould have been more effectual ifmade twelve months ago, ana wnen

made at so late a day, the Governorand Treasuror may well reply that itis only a bid for office.an attempt to

shift responsibility from the shouldersof the Secretary to those of Meijsrs.Scott and Parker.
