WASHINGTON. Sudden Demise of the Ku ! Klux Kian." General Sherman's New Orleans Speech Denounced by Radicals, Revenue Decisions by Commis- sioner Pleasanton. Salaries of City “Offictals Subject to the Income Tax. An Important Question Before the Court of Claims. WasHINGTON, May 3, 1871, Who Ku Klux Act a Dend Letter—adicnls Howling Over General Sherman’s Now @ricans Speech. Since the adjournment of Congress there does not geem to be so many reports sent here of Ku Klux ‘outrages, and many persons are arriving at the game opinion as General Sherman—namely, that these outrages, if they existed at all, were greatly Overrated for the purpose of making political capt- na). It 4s doubtful if the President will be called wpon to enforce the act of Congress passed at the recent session for the suppression of the Ku Klux, for the reason that tere does not appear to be any considerbble num- ber of persons disposed to resiat it. Tne special joint committee which was appointed to visit the South during the recess and Investigate the alleged outrages meets here on the 17th inst.; Dati the present peaceful condition of afuirs continues at the Bouth itis hardly probable the committee will take the trouble to visit that seclion. General Sherman's speech is severely denounced by radteal politicians, ‘who assert that he does not know what he is talking about, and that he has had no opportunity to ascer- tain anything about the operations of the Ku Klux. ‘The radicals seem anxious to keep alive all stories about outrages at the South which were repeated in the debate in the Senate when the Enforcement pill ‘was under discussion. ‘The President’s Visit to Boston Postponed. ‘The President will not be able to visit Boston at the meeting of the Army of the Potomac, on the 12th inst., in that city, owing to the business he qill have to transact with Senators during the approach- ‘ng session. improvements in the Service—Inspectors of Customs to be Uniformed. In response to the lettor of Secretary Bontwell, gollectors of ports throughout the country have favorably replied that they consider tnat both the interests of the govern: ment and the merchants would ve promoted by prescribing a uciform for the Inspectors of Cus- toms. Upon the return of Secretary Boutwell this subject will receive his immediate attention, and the suggestions as to the color best adapted for the uniforms to he worn by these customs officials will pe duly regarded, This step of Secretary Boutwell is supposed by Treasury officials to be in the direc: tion of improving the civil service, and other dmpor- tant changes are expected, General Lawrence, the Defauiting Pension Agent. Up to this time the government has obtained no clue to the whereavouts of General Lawrence, late Pension Agent at New York, thongh diligent efforts Shave been made to find him. He stood very high ‘with the Secretary of the Interior, who regarded him a8 one of the most faithful officers under the depart- ment. General Lawrence has relatives in this city whe are at a loss to account for his strange con- @act. Charge oi Commanders in Arizona. General George Stoneman bas deen relieved from the command of the Department of Arizona. The numerous complaints of his inactivity in the present Savage Warfare waged by the Apaches in the Terri- tory suMiciently indicates the cause of his removal, ‘The cause of his forced inactivity is not so generally known, and it is but just to a most meritorious oMoer to say (hat he is a constant sufferer from a painful physical imirmity which incapaci- tates him from violent exercise and from which several severe aud dangerous surgical operations have failed to relieve him. General Stoneman 1s succeeded in Arizona by Gene- val George Crook, a distingulshea commander in the Virginia Valley during the war and lately comman- er of the Department of Columbia. Internal Revense Vecisions—Salarics of City Officials Subject to the Iucome Tax. ‘The Supreme Court of the United States having recently decided in the case of BuMinton vs. Day, that all necessary agencies for the legitimate pur- poses of the State government are not proper sub- Joecte of the taxing power of Congress, &c., several questions have already come under the considera- tion of the Commjsstoner of Internal revenue in connection with that subject, and he has just de- @ided the following cases, viz.:— ‘The cashier of the Farmers’ National Bank, at Annapolis, Md., says tne State Treasurer notified his bank that he was going to make a demand upon it for the payment to the State of the United Siates five per cent tax on the dividends of the stock held by the State, which, he alleged, was erroneously held by the bank and patd to the United States, Yhe State Treasurer claimed that under the recent decision of the courts the State was not hable to the tax. The Commissioner repiled that, in his opinion, the tax withneld from satd coupons was properly withheld and cannot be refanded, aa eo sat -A geitieman of Boston wrote that ho was required to pay income tax upon ooupons of the State of Massachusetts bonis, Thinking the spirit of the. recent deel. sions regarding salaries patd to State judges should exclyie such coupons from taxation, he took the liberty of ascertaining from the Commis- sioner whether he was required to pay it or not, ‘The Commissioner replies that coupons or amounts @ue on coupons of State bonds are not included in the amounts exempted by the decision from returns or incomes. Cornelins Gien, a clerk of the Board of Canal Ap- pralsers of New York, asked the Commisstoner if ‘tho salaries of the members of the Board were sub- Ject to return as inevme, to which the latter replied the members of the Board are not relieved from Ma- ‘bUllty to irfelude their emoluments as such in thelr ‘returns of income, but should return sald emolu- ‘ments in the same manner as other incomes. Walker 0. Dunfee, of Fall River, having inquired ‘M the salary of a cliy assessor must be returned as income, the Commissioner replied that the decision Goes not extend to the salaries of city oficiais, Reports from National Banks, ‘The Comptroller of the Currency, in accordance ‘with the proviatons of the act regulating the reports of national banking associations, has, In an oitctal circular, required them to forward reports of the condition of their respective banks as shown by ‘their books at the close of business on Saturday, the 20th of April, and not on the 9th, as yesterday er- Foneously stated.

Itbas been alleged by the policy holders in the Knicker. bocker Life Insurance Company that they have beep thoroughly swindled by the company.

CHARLESTON, May 3, 1871, Since that terrible day for South Carolina when the blue-coated cohorts of Sherman marched into Columbia, burning, destroying and looting as they came, this State has not been placed in such peril as she is to-day, morally, socially and politically. The people are now really face to face with an issue which will be determined in a few weeks, Events are crowding fast. Three days ago, for the first time since tho war, 800 white men, many of them belonging to the best families in the State, marched through the main streets of this city with the precision of veterans, each man uniformed and equipped in rifle green or gray, and carrying a Remington or a Winchester sixtecn- shooting rifle on his shoulder, Bands played, and aga testimony of the feeling of the fair sex swarms of ladies of the first society gatherea at window, balcony, doorstep and sidewalk to smile at and wave handkerchiefs to the young men, who, for the first time since 1865, have appeared openly with arms and untforms in this State. These rifle clubs are chartered as clubs only, the Varolina Rifle Club carrying Winchester rifles, for which they pay thir- ty-five dollars apiece as private individuais—the State, of course, having nothihg to do with this company; but the other companies lately organ- izea, such as the Sumter Rifte Olub, are yet without arma, The Charleston Rifle Club, the Adger Rifle Club and the Washington Rifle Club have, Ibelieve, humbugged Governor Scott into giving them arms from the State, he receiving some bind of a verbal promise from their officers that they were to consider themselves as State militia, ‘Their commissions, however, were issued in blank and Not filled out, and the clubs are essentially clubs, and lave neither company, letter nor regimental organization. An Irish rifle club will be raised in a few days and will probably be recruited from the Palmetto Fire Company (all fire companies here are voluntary), which to a large extent is composed of Irish citizens. Five or six companies are being organized beside, but as yet they are in embryoin this city, and events will, no doubt hasten their birth, Yesterday the Charlestontans came out in strong force on several of the streets to gazo at avery ominous sight. Twelve brass field guns, with forges, calssons and all the paraphernalia of guns in battery, swept through the streets to the citadel, the last place in tis city where Genoral Conacr placed a sentry for the Confederacy, the night before the bridge across the Ashley was burned, when the Union troops arrived in front of the city. A few days since came one hun: cannonters of the United States Third artillery, and last week came a troop of cavalry, and in the neighborhood of the citadel the hammer and chisel and saw are heard daily. Barracks and sheds are being erected for Yuited States troops, who are being gradualiy outed into the Stace in view of the so-called Ku Jux troubles, “Now,” said @ South Carolina gentleman to your correspondent yesterday, “What are we to judge from all these movements of troops through the State? Why, simply Vhat Grapt Ig determined first to frighten us, if he can, by a display of armed fored, and then, while we are under the fright, carry the soe when the time comes for @ Presidential elec- ion; but we have all round us negro national guards armei and equipped by the Legislature and Governor at our expense, for they have no money to equip themselves und it must all come out of our pockets, Regiment after regiment is organizea with nigger colonels, The Lieutenant Governor of our State is a bigger; there are seventy-four niggers in the State Jature who cannot read or write; negro or mulatto prostitutes in carriages bavi curious crests on their panelling, are driven throug! the streets of the capital, and are in actual aMiiation with the Governor of the once proud State of South Carolina. We are taxed until we can’t draw breath, and, In the face of all this, you, as a correspondent of the HERALD, ask me wuldt our boys are formin rife clubs so suddenly for? Iam astonished, but Will tell you. We don’t mean that this thing shall go on any longer. We don’t want to be robbed any Jonger by thieves with bandies to their names. We are the white race, which, under no circumstances, can ever be held down for any lengih of time by ne- roes, and if they, with their univormed Natioual juard niggers shall attempt to outlaw us and drive us into a Oght in defending our property, why, then, by G—, we shall have a try for 1, and in my calculation the niggers will go to the wall. We have been whipped by the North, but we do not intend the niggers shall confer the same honor on us. That's all, and that’s why we are raising rife clubs.” 1 find that this cilizen is but one of hundreds like himself scattered over the State. The feeling, though suppressed, is absolutely dangerous. Ga botn sides the fire is fanued by the existence of tne negro National Guard, ‘To show what the National Guard is 1 shall give some details, ‘fhe South Carolina National Guard 1s altogether a negro organization. Init are fourteen regiments of in- fantry,armed with Winchester rifles, a most formiia- bie Weapon. The Guard has one major general, C. L. Anderson; four brigadier generals, Swatls, W hipper, Hioge and Wins: il an adjutant general, Moses, Whose hands gre dirty, it 18 sald, With ail kinds of oficial plunder. The inspector general is a negro, the paymaster general, Dennis, Is a notorious character, and some of the officers, with rank as’ high as colonel, are as great ras- cals as live to-day in the United States, The First regiment of National Guards 13 locaied m Charieston district, haying eleven companies, and 1s commanded by arather gentlemanly youug fellow named ‘aft. This regiment is weil uniformed and Well disciplined. 1 saw them at a rigat shouluer shitt in column of jour tue otlier day. The men were ail jarge-bodied, ignorant-looking negroes, nd ticy number a thousaud men. Nash’s regiment has its headquarters at Columbia, with ereven com- pauies, ‘The third regiment le;ougs to Beaufort, and has for its heutenant colonel Robert Smaiis, who ran the Planter, 4 small steamer velonging to his master, out of Obarivston during the War. It 1s Hevdiess to say that Sinails is the most bitter per- sonal enemy of the while man in the State, and he would, it 18 hinted, only be too glad to draw rife could Only covér all the able-bodied men tn the State. The adjutant, Langley, and quartetihaster of the Third regiment, were sentenced to two years’ {niprison- ment, with @ heavy fine, by Jadge Bond, of ihe United States Court in this city, some days ago, for stu™ing ballot boxes, and thereby franduientiy electing Delarge, anegro barber, to Congress, The colone: of the Fourth regiment ts George Mcintyre, @ Senator, like Smails, and who is engaged to be married 40 one of tie lamous, or otwerwise, Well- known Roltins girls, His Ld is a halt breed, named Hayne, Who boasts of the bar sinister with the well-knowa family of that name jn this State, The Fourth regiment Is made up of negroes, chiety from Barnwell and Colleton coun- ties, and 1s quite full in oMeers and men. The Sixth regiment 19 located in Lancester and Maribovo counties, and Js under command of a man named Maxwe'l, who is distinguished for nothing but a furious appetite. The Kighth belongs to Darlington county und is commanded by aman named Tille- brow There are quite a number of what 1s cal ed Ku Kiux outrages in Darlington county, and | have spoken With a number of negroes who have had to fy from that county and are now In Charleston hid- ing. ‘The Ninth belongs to Hamburg and Edgedeld, and has for its heutenant colonel the famous Prince Rivers, @ very oleagenous negro, Who distingulsiied hhwseil as a lecturer at tho North some years ago, The other regiments are the Tenth, Colonei J, 0, Smith, Orangeburg, Newbury and Lexington counties; Eleventh regiment, Colonel E. 1. Mann, Abbeville and Anderson counties; Twelith regsment, Oconee county; Tuirteeuth regiment, Coivnel Hleming, Sparianbarg, Union and Laurens counties; Four- teenth regiment, Colonel Yocom, Chester, York and Fairfleld counties. With all their arms and equipments, however, these negro militia are cowardly, except when filed with whiskey, aithougi in frame and stature they are larger than the nuttve white South Caroll. Man.

The confict is coming with a vengeance in this State, the State Gubernatorial election of 1870 received 85,071 vot while the reform io candidate, Judge Carpenter, re ceived 61,637 votes. This exhibits the num- ber of the able _ bodied voters of the State pretty well, In other words, there are ninety thousand able bodied negroes and slxty thou- sand able bodied whites in the State, and, sooner or later, a tight must come, and I can onl. say that { belleve that the negroes will be—as a erate officer told me yesterday—cut to pleces if they are mad enough to begin a row. It Is useless to be blind to the fact that meets me everywhere I go, and stares me in the face, That wonderful and powertul secret organization, which springs up in a night and disappears at dawn, no one knows where—the “Committee of Safety” — has, through its poweriul Sern fa jlete pos session of the State of Sour Carolina. Interested parties of both sides will contradict each other as vo the magnitude by the organization. I firmly be- hey m what I am told by men whose nam dare not use, that the “Commit teo of Satety” have determined to displace all white carpet-bazger or native renegade office holders recall in every instance waiting for some ostensible or real cause to justify the rude justice of their measures. [also belleve that the adherents of this orgunization are drilling ahd preparing for something whicn I will not name, but must almost conjecture. 1 know that there ls no feeitng whatever among their men against the United States or iis troops, for the majority of the men inthe United States ranks hate the negro ag bitterly ag the Carolintan, but [ believe that the doom of the thievish carpet-baggers 13 approaching, and once send them away the dominant party in Soutn Carolina will hold the negro as in a yice, although they ao not intend to deprive them of the franchise by any means. In the meantime a State convention will be held at Columbia on next Tuesday, May 9, at which about four delegates from each of the thirty-two counties of the State will be present. ‘this convention is the frmt of somo resolutions oifered in the Charleston Chamber of Commerce by Mr. Richard Lathero, who 1s weil Known in New York, in which the enormous and = scoundrelly taxation of $4,600,000 for the current year passed the stute Legislature was denounced, whic gave rumor to some false statements that repudia- Uon was meant, which is notthe case. Until to- day Lbelieycd that the convention would comprise delegates from the counties of both parties, put now i.see that such will not pe the case. I find that nearly all the delegates already chosen from the dif- ferent counties elther have served in the rebel ranks or have been always very prominent in their views. Such men as Generals Kershaw, But- ler and rae will attend, and {t 1s pore tbat Wade Hampton may be present. ut is very evident to me that the Convention will ove le such moderate men as Lathers, who seeks only z egnolliation, ‘There 13 no common. ground bet mn the two parties for them to meet upon, and the question of race is insuperable, It is ex: pected that W. D. Porter, a distinguished lawyer of Unis elty, wil preside in the Convention, Some of tu More moderate and sensibie republicans, lke Senator ©. P. Leslie, General Gurney, Avtorney General Chamberlain, District At- torney Corbin, of this city, and others, are growing more conservative daily, ana would tke (0 make some accommodation, if possible, but I don’t believe in the result as if it were at all hope- ful, Qne-of the measures that will be certain to occupy the attention of the Convention will be sha tm the form of a resolution to do away with the sterling Funding bill, which empowers the State to borrow the sum of $6,000,000 or £1,200,000, as best {team and where it can. Seven State Senator far back as Jast March, headed by the immaculate B. F. Whittemore, protestea against this war, and their objection holds good to-day. [tis a rascally and corrupt bill, and if the State does not trown down euch legistative frauds, the thievish crew who | rule her now will bankrapt South Carolina. Gover- Nor Scott, itis said, is becoming quite conservative in hig tone of late, and in talk with me he gave me the idea and had the appearance of | & young candidate for holy orders— his Utterouces were beautiful and his language 60 cholce. In the meantime the Btate bonds /old ood af sixty, aud 1 believe will be redeemed, and I hink that the South Carolina bank bills are per- fectly good investments for purchase. Ari still there ure very unpleasant facts to look at, some of which I may specily. First, those fourteen negro Yegiments filled with a blind hatred to the whites; secondly, the arming and organizing of Dumerous rifle clubs; thirdly, the® inscrutable and ail-pervading fprescnés éf this vast and powerful “Committee of Public Safety,’ which holds the destiny of South Caroll a, 1n the hollow of its mysterious hand, and lastly, Re increasing anupathy and distrust of the whites, who do not desire to be ruled by ignorant and dishonest meu, Whom thoy and the educated population look upon as little better than savages. To me it looked very ommous, the passage of those twelve neld guns in battery through the strects of Charleston.

The advice of the HeraLp with regard to local arbitration has at last been ofictaily accepted. The General Council of the Miner’s Union met. here to- day, with a very full representation of delegates. Mr. Kealy stated that the main reason for the call of this special session was to tender his resignation on Account of the reports that had been circulated to the effect that himself and the other officers of the Union were the great drawbacks toa speedy re- sumption of mining tn the coal regions, It has been said that @ desire on the part of the officers of the Workingmen’s Benevolent Association to retain their positions and draw thelr salaries was the | great cause of the deadlock. For his part he had only to say that he never had been paid a salary, Mr. Siney being the only oMcer m the Working- men’s Benevolent Association wiio 18 paid a salary. The Operators decline to treat with the present om- cials of the Workingmen’s Benevolent Assoctation, He would advise the General Council to elect other oficers, and thus deprive the operators and other interested parties of such @ ridiculous excuse to heap reproaches on the officers of the association. Siney followed Kealy in @ speech in favor of ac- cepting his own and Kealy’s resignation. He salad they oweu it to themselves and the public to nail the lie right here, He was the only omicer receiving asalary, and was willing to renounce salary and office for the good of the men, if by so doing he could help them, Other delegates spoke on the subject, and the question was put {o the Council whether the resig- nations should be accepted. A unanimous ‘No’ was the response, aud President Kealy was given to understand that his resiguation could not be ac. ef pied, ho matter what the operators might say of hind. ‘The reports from the different counties were then called for, with the following result:— Oarbon—Negotiations pending; compromise will probably be effected in a few days.

At this stage of the proceedings Mr. Kealy re- ceived atelegram from Wikesvarre annoaiemy that the Wilkesbarre district would resume work to-morrow on the basis of isé®, The reading of the despatch was received with the greatest applause. It was received as a victory for the miners, who had held back from the beginning of the suspension for this basis, and as an evidence that the deadlock had at last been broken. A DgLEGATE reported that George W. Cole had in- formed him that the operators would willingly pay the three dollar basis if the umpire sald so, and he deemed it advisable to submit the propositions of both miners aud operators for the umpire’s deci- s10n, Mr. Reese then offered the following resolution, x ich, alter a stormy discussion, Was garried by 1/ fo Resolve culties by local arbitration, or may deem best ander existi sanction of the Council. ‘This is, to all intents and purposes, an adinission of defeat on the part of the miners. ‘They would. have accepted the operators’ offer to-day, but they Wish to yleld as gracciully as possible, With star. vation be) thein In tre face und no funds to ignt the combinations of capital that have been brougut to HAY Against thos they sould ua langar held ont Siney informed me today that while he tin- ternally opposea anything that would seem Uke giving in to the capitalists the ne- ceesities of the hour forced them to. it The struggic is ended, and the miners have fora time beet vanguished by the absolute demands of hunger, The organization, however, is not weak- ened.
