If they not headed off, lt will never be used its legitimate purposes. Mr. J. D. I ton thought that the best thing the Ho could do, would be to adjourn. After the time passed sine? the beginning tho extra session, the Legislature 1 only done one ar two little things, that is needed now ls to paqp the tax h and ?.lc spine: hing in regard to the pul debt, and then go home. Mr. Bowl wanted more time. So far, the Hoi had only worked on suppositions, must have the Comptroller-General's port and the Governor's message, bef< it could legislate wisely.

Mr. Simpkins, gave notice of u bill < incorp?ralo thc Rising Sons of P.cnevt lenee of Edgeileld. There is but little work being dono i either House, and-the Columbia corre; pondent of the Charleston Newa & Cot vier says: The same course of conti uct which chai acterized tho special session-a lot < gabble and talk and no work-is bein reconlinued in the regular session. Th only important work to bo done, the ac justment of the debt of the State and th fixing of tho rate of the levy of taxes lo the now fiscal year, is betagpushed asidt and measures of verv minor considera tion first rogarded. Tho truth is the pre* ont administration is a complete failure It eau grapple successfully with none c tho questions of gravo financial impoi tance, and is utterly at sea as to what t do with tho State's Indebtedness. It i felt that something ought tn be done i: ordor to givo, at least; a scmblauce of fulfilment of tho pledges of the party i: the last election for retrenchment am roform ; but what to do the party leader are at a perfect loss. They dread th question of the debt from a variety c motives They droad it in the first plac because they perceive that no action c theirs, whatever it may be, can settle th matter on account of tho deservedly bat repute into which the party has fallei with tue bondholders. None of the bond od creditors of the State seem to feel th slightest interest in the action of th General Assemblern the premises. A any rate there are none about boro that see, and even Kimptr.n has left in appa ront disgust. In the second place, thos who feel an iuterest in the continued ex latence of " tho party" in tho State hav. their most lively apprehensions excitet lest lu the efibrt to arrange tho debt tin greed of the grabbors may tlisarrangt evervthing aud sink tho party, if that ot {>ossiblo, moro deeply in disgrace aut. nfamy than it has even yet been. Th? apprehension is not without ground, fm it is evident to tho most casual obscrvei that the jobbers and speen lat. .rs are con gregating around thc debt, anti that they will havo tho chiof finder in thc pie. Il is plain onongh that tho wholo bastaos* is intended for tho beuolit nf the home jobber rather than thc honest outside creditor nf the Stale. On Thursday, the 4th, in tho Senate, Mr. Smalls introduced a concurrent reso lution, that tho Attorney-General be re quested to inform the General Assembly why he has not prosecuted those County Treasurers" who are found to be debtors to the State, and whose cases have been placed In his bands by the State Treasu rer.

The clerk report ed thirty-three attaches, eight committee derks and twenty live others. A bill was introduced to make thc treasurer of Charleston an elective office. On Friday, tho 5th, in tho Senate, Bev erly Nash introduced<a bill lo remove thc location o? tho State Orphan Asylum from Charleston to Columbia.

There was considerable lighting over it, but it was finally adopt ed by a vote of fifty four to twenty-seven. A concurrent resolution was also adopt ed that thc attorney-general and the tic-isui er ascertain where they are aud secure (he plates of the Bank of tho State. There is an apprehension that now bills may be ?truck off since the decision of the Supreme Court has made them valuable. In tho joint assembly W. J.

NEW YOEK, December 7.-A cipher dispatch from Madrid states that the as pect of the Cubas question is again grave. Minister Sickles, to-day, tendered bis re signation as Minister in consequence of a disagreement with the authorities at Wash ington about the Spanish complications. This disagreement has existed for some time. It is understood that in the recent negotiations Secretary Fish acted directly with President Castelar, ignoring Minis ter Sickles und disapproving of his imper ative tone. The Correspondencia says they hava had frequent disagreements be fore. There was at least a rupture with Mr. Fish on the occasion of the correspon dence attending the demand of Bidwell from Havana and the Howard case, when Mr. Fish ignored Sickles and dealt direct ly with the Spanisli Minister. It is said in diplomatic circles that the gcod offices of the British Minister accom plished a settlement, but now as Mr. Fish propo;es further concessions, Sickles re signs. The Cuban authorities demand that the Virgiaius be delivered at some I Spanish or Porto Rico port, and the dis cretion of the colonial minister, there to ! await arbitration. The opposition to Pres ident Castelar is culminating in a cabinet crisis. The whole Spanish press is indig nant, and protects against tho tone of Pres ident Grant's message as an impertinent interference in Cuban affairs which is real ly none of his business. The cause of the cabinet crisis is the charge that Castelar cringes to America. The situation springs from the astounding ignorance, haughti ness and pride of the people, and the feel ing is intensely warlike. A meeting of prominent citizens was held in this city this afternoon, to arrange for a monster meeting at Cooper Institute next Friday night, to give expression to the ?public sentiment with regard to Cu ban affars. The list of vice-Presidents include some of the first, citizens. Ad dresses will be made by the Rev. Dr. Tyng, Col. Morgan, and others. lt is said that the steamer City of Mer ida, the fastest vc?sel on the coast, will be altered into a gunboat and trausport to be used in case of war. A quantity of ship timber ia now on her wharf, which it is said will be used to strengthen her, so that shu cm carry heavy ordnance. Latest From Havana. HAVANNA, December 7.-Captain Gen eral Joyellar authorizes thestatement that the entire island is tranquil. He has no doubt that all will be arranged peaceably and satisfactorily, without thc slightest difficulty. He now declares that he does not intend to leave Havanna or transfer [.his power into the hands of Gen. Merelo, tho Segundo Cabo, who arrived by the last steamer from Spain. The feeling of the people in Havana is quieter aud no dis turbance is apprehended. The disposition to comply with tho man dates of tuc home Government and obliga tions of the treaty with the Unied States, without further discussion, is becoming general. The general commanding at ?San tiago de Cuba, in the absence of Gen. Bur riel, acting without orders, but believing he was doing right, placed 92 of the Vir ginity' prisoners aboard the Spanisli man of-war Bazan and sent them to Cienfae gos. The few remaining prisoners were either too ill to be removed, or being mere youths of tender age had been set at lib erty. One of those thus liberated was en gaged as waiter on one of the Gr "ernment steamers. The prisoners, while '.Santia go, were well treated by the authorities and in no way molested by the populace. When the Bazan reached Cienfuegos, her commander announced by telegraph to Havana his aivival with the prisoners. The Captain General answered Ly order ing the immediate return of the Bazan and the prisoners to Santiago, where they must have arrived by this time. SANTIAOO OE CUBA, December 8.-Thc United States steamer Kansasarrived here yesterday after a hard passage. She ex perienced a fearful gale from the South west. She was unable to lie to, and being obliged to run before it was driven out of her course, and finally compelled to put into Bermudas for coal. Commanders of the Kansas and Juniata have not yet made a formal demand for the delivery of tho Virginius prisoners. The latter were re moved from the jail to the Moro fort this morning.

Il, 1873.^ Congress. Of the doings of tho forty-third Con gress, in session since the first day of the present month, there is but little as yetto tell. Thus far the table of tho House has been delugod with bills intro duced from all suctions of the Union and upon a great variety of subjects. Con spicuous among tkeso- bills aro the nu merous projects presented for the repeal or modification of tbeobnoxious*increased salary and back pay bill of the last Con gress. The necessity of " work meet for repentance" has evidently fallen upon tho House and all in that* body concern ed in tho scandalous back-pay experi ment. Next, numcrou- financial pro jects have boen introduced-good, bad, indifferent-and still they aro coining in. lu tho miscellaneous list are bills to reg ulate railway freights ; ?aid in the con struction or widening o?\several great canals, North and South ; ft) lissome the debts of tho Southern States; to roduee the postag? on letters; to restore tho franking privilege; to repeal tho iron clad oath ; and to grant belligerent rights to the Cubans. The number of bibs already on tho House calendar for this session Is hardly less than five hundred "If wo have such things in'tho grson tree, what shall we have iu the dry?" The General of the Democratic Hosts. In the light of late events wo must consider the Order of the Patrons of Husbandry as tho present leader and general of tho. Democratic hosts in our country. For who, but this Order, lod them to victory lately in ohio, Illinois and Wisconsin, if indeed not in Virginia and Now York? If tho Grangers are not political, aud are not Democrats, they certainly work with and for the Democracy: aud we look upon thom as a party raised up by God to bring about a peaceful but completo revolution in this distracted and unnaturally situate^ country. On Tuesday, the 25th November, the powerful State Grange of Georgia held in Atlanta, a Convention of delegates from all the agricultural associations in the South ; and a worthy delegation at tended from our own State to join in the deliberations of this meeting. There are now about 80 Granges in Sonth Carolina, and in auothor twelvemonth this number will be doubled. Indeed this movement, inaugurated but two years ago, by the farmers of the Northwest, and which has since spread so rapidly all over the country, may be considered the most re markable of this or any other age. The great feature of the Atlanta Con vention was tho adoption of tho follow ing Resolution, which if put into actual practice by the planters would be at tended with good to the country : Resolved, That in view of making our farms self-sustaining by sowing down one third of the arable land in small grain and grass and planting one-third in corn and one-third in cotton, we here by recommend that the masters of the respective Cotton States Granges submit this policy to the subordinate Granges for their adoption, and that the masters of subordinate Granges be requested to urge the voluntary pledges of thc Granges then to report thc result to the masters of their State Grange, who will then report to the President of this Convention the number of subordinate Granges in each State that have pledged themselves to their policy, and such information will be diffused through the public press by the President. Heretofore the consumers and not the producers have boen the revolutionary class. The bread eaters and not the bread growers have always been the dangerous element. And the farmers' movement -.hows how great mnst bo tho wrongs from which tho farmers suffer. Tho power uud wealth of groot railway linos, consolidations, monopolios, and rings, have becorao so great as actually, to threaten tho libortios of tho people. The government itself is run in the in terest of and under tho control of great railway corporations and moneyed mo nopolies and rings. Public officers, from the highest to the lowest, aro bought by and belong to those corporations. Congress and State Legislatures legislate in the interest of tbeso corporations, und Credit Mobilier, on large and small scales, governs and oppresses the people. And now the peaceable and conver ser vati ve farmer, finding at last that des pite his industry and economy he cannot attain wealth, because the greater part of his earnings goes towards enriching others, has determined to make an effort to remedy the ovil. As regards railways, we certainly have not the same cause of complaint against them as tho people ol* tho Northwest. They are undoubtedly great and good institutions, and thc country could not possibly do without thom. But when it comes to corrupt government and un scrupulous rings, thou tho South is un mistakably the greatest of all sufferers. And consequently it is of the deepest importance for the peoplo of the South ern States to unite with those of tho Northwest in this great movement. It is a prime opportunity to overturn tho corrupt government under which we have suffered so long. Let us help to break down the rings, by which we break and dostroy the Radical party and overthrow the Radical administration which is run solely in the interest of the ! rings. Let us unite with the farmers all over tho land and fight for reform. Let us organize Granges at once and join the order of tho Patrons of Husbandry. Lot us heartily second the party of peaceful but radical and complete revolution. "Funeral Notice," ?ur young friend, Mr. Ed. Calhoun, of Houston, Texas, sends us a placard, with a huge coffin and cross bones upon it, and tho above heading. It frightened us at first, but our fear soon turned to joy. It is the funeral notice of tho Radical Party ot Texas. Around tho coffin is the profane but fitting inscription : M No More Chicken Pie !' ' On the 2nd inst, an election was held in Texas for Governor, in which Coke, the Democratic candidate, beat Davis, the Radical, by some fifteen or twenty thousand votes. Add Texas, therefore, to Virginia, Ohio, Now York, Illinois, Iowa, die. And take bearii.

"Jealous of its honor." Rich, very! And decidedly the most transparent caso of softT-soaping yet developed. "Jeal ous of ils honor."* Next. A Poor House Sold by the Sheriff! Tho Poor Houseof Williamsburg Coun ty was sold by the Sheriff on Sale-day last, under executions against tho Coun ty. By this transaction the County is mulcted to the tuno of nearly two thou sand dollars, and tho Pauper, are house less unless arrangements can bo mado with tho recent purchaser to givo thom shelter until tho County Commissioners buy another Poor House These model business transactions were certainly un known among us when white mon and Democrats ruled the land. ?mr> Representativo Enos A.

It would seem that the negro is to bo forever and eternally a bugbear-and most particularly so among Ids own j white. Radical brethren. Ten 'days ag'> it was announced from the North tbat naval recruits could not be gathered for the punishment of Spaniards becauso the whites had got wind of negroes bo-. [ ing received into the same ships and on the same footing. Tho white Yankees could not fight for the vindication of the glorious ilag if they had to do it along side of negras Ob no ! And now, in our own Legislature, the Republican Printing Company of South Carolina-white Radicals, and very nasty ones at that-aro being hauled over tho coals by Representative Bowley, anegro, j of Georgetown, because they refuge to employ colored compositors, or to work side by side with the samo. A Commit tee has been appointed to examine into this unjust discrimination, and to report the names of the persons composing this Company. So we shall probably be favored with the patronymics of those deluding and delusive carpet-bagirers who dare turn up their noses at the "man and brother" Por you maybe sure they aro carpet-baggers-not scala wags. In justico to our nativo scalawags -let them bu high or low^it must.be said that they always go the whole hog or rather tho whole nigger. "The Hising Sous of Benevolence." Representative Paris Simkiue ha? in troduced into tho Legislature a bill to incorporate "The RisingSous" (orought it to be "Suns?") of Benevolence, of | Edgeflold County. In theso days, socie ties with names savoring of charity and beneficence, ai e not always-especially among the Radical party-what they purport to bo. But let us hope that "The Rising Sons of Benevolence of J Edgefield County," when they shall be incoporated, will act up to their name nobly. The great mass of negroes are not well off ; and with the hard winter ?just setting in, and the hard year ot 1874, the M Rising Sons'' will have their hands full. It is well that the magnates who make the money should organize for the relief of the poor deluded no groes who vote them into the money making places. A Kentucky Vendetta. HARRODSBUBO, Ky., Nov. 27.-Our town ia in a terrible state of excitement, caused by the difficulty which happened in the court house yesterday afternoon, and which resulted in the killing of three men and wounding of three others. The parties engaged in the affray were Phil. B. Thompson, Sr., an old and distin guished lawyer of our town, and brother of ex-Senator J. B. Thompson, and his three eons, viz: D, M. Thompson, Phil. B. Thompson, Jr., Commonwealth's Attor ney for this district, and J. B. Thompson, Jr., County Attorney, against Theodore Davis, Esq. and his three sons : Theodore, Jr., Lame and Caldwell. Thc Circuit Court has been in session for several days, and was at the time this shooting occur red, with Judge Wickliffe on thc bench. The petit jury had just retired for a few minutes, when all of a sudden A PISTOL SHOT WAS HEARD, followed by twenty-five or thirty others simultaneously almost inside of the house, which was crowded at the time. The ex citement was intense. Men tumbled head long out of the windows and doors. Doc tors, lawyers, citizens and the Judge him self rushed for a place of safety, pulling one upon top of another, secreting under and behind benches and pillars. The stove, and court house walls were literally riddled with bullets, TWO MEX LAY DEAD ON THE FLOOR, one other mortally and three others slight ly wounded. Theodore Davis. Sr., was shot through the heart and died immediately, and his son, Lame Davist after receiving four bul lets in his body, fell, and dieu m a few minutes. Theodore Davis, Jr., was shot through the body and in the right band. He lived until this morning and expired about ten o'clock. He walked from the court house to tho Adams Express office, after he was shot, and did not at the time think he was seriously hurt. Phil. B. Thompson, Sr., was shot through the right thigh. J. B. Thompson and his 'brother Phil. B. Thompson, Jr., were both slightly wounded and several holes shot through their clothing. D. M. Thompson, another brother, also had had his clothes perfora ted with bullets. One ball passed through his hat. The fight, though sudden, WAS NOT WHOLLY UNEXPECTED, for it was generally known that both par ties were armed, and Judge Wickliffe had the day previous ordered the Sheriff to arm himself and deputies, and be ready to quell any disturbance that might arise, and to " nip it in thc bud" at all hazards. However, A'hen the difficulty did begin the danger was thought tu have been over, and the sherill" with the judge's per mission, had gone home. The l?th of December has been set for the examining trial, and until then no further particulars will be brought to light. Tna CAUSE OK THE FIGHT was about a suit which had been brought by one Meux against Theodore Davis for two thousand five hundred dollars. Davis swore that he had paid the money, and produced the note as evidence, and Mr. Thompson, Sr., ?entended that the note had not been paid and that it had been surreptitiously obtained hom bis desk. Such, I am informed, was in substance the origin of the difficulty which terminated so seriously. A TERRIBLE COINCIDENCE. . A father and three sons were arrayed against a father and three sons, and whilst I write a father and two sons lie dead in one house, while a father and two sons lie wounded in another. Both families live on the same street, not far apart. The battle, for such it may be called, was short, fierce and decisive. There was no nicker ing. A U the parties were cool and deter mined, and net ? shot was fired at random or without aim. Thc dead will be buried in one grave to-morrow, and Wednesday, the '2?th of November 1873, will hereafter be known as the " Bloodv Wednesday" in the histo ry of HarrodBburg. A Good Collector.
