'Tho -condition on which England is willing to-submit the Alabama, claims to a commission, iscthat the claims of English subjects against Vimcrica for losses during the rebellion be sub '..mitied to the same commission. General Cauby, tho new commander of this Military District, arrived in Charleston on the 3d inBt., by tho Northeastern Railroad, and took rooms at tho Mills House. He is accom pauied.by Mrs. Cauby and two mombcrs of his staff, Messrs. O. M. Miftchcll, and Louis Y. Caziarc "Mr. President," said a member of a school committee but West, "I rise to get up, and am not hackward to come forward in the cause of ?dication. Had it not been for cdication, I might have been as ignorant as yourself, Mr. President." Socretary Scward, according to rumor, is to stay in office for the special purpose of settling the Alabama claims, for which wc arc, to re ceive British Columbia, and of completing ne gotiations for tho cession of further territory from other Powers. Ohio and Kentucky arc now united, not on ly by a bridgebutbya horscrailroad. Cars run across the great bridge between Cincinnati and Covingtou, starting every tcn.miutiles. From the Ohio side, across the bridge, through Cov iugton aud return, the..circuit is nearly three miles. A dispatch from Fort Hayes says the sav ages in that section do not wish peace aud will kill the Commissioners if they can. Thoy are driving all tho buffaloes towards their villages on the Republican River. They attacked a train near Fort Smith but were repulsed. Twenty Indians and one officer and four sol diers wcro killed. "My dear Ellen," said a young man,;,l have long wished for this sweet opportunity, but I hardly dare to trust myself to speak the deep emotions of my heart; but I declare to you, my dear Ellen, that I love you most tenderly. Your smiles would shed?would shed?" "Never mind the wood shed," said Elleu, -go on with your pretty talk." Negro Bonds. The following decision possesses interest to many of our readers. Wo clip it fron? the Greenville Mountaineer's account of the pro ceedings of the United States District Court, at that place on the 22ud ult: Thomas It. Agnew, Assiguce, vs. Simpson Bohd. This was au action on a note given for the* purchase money of a negro slave sold by Mrs. Wofford to the Defendant in 1858, and warranted by her at that time to be sound and a slave for lifo. Note for ?1000, interest an nually, duo in 1860, was assigned to Plaintiff. The defense relied upon was a failure of consideration in that the negro, warranted to be a slave for life, is still alive, but had been made free." And also upon payment?the debt feeing sequestered by the Government of the Con tfederate States as the property of an alien enemy, ?was paid undor compulsion ofthat Govern ment, while at war with the United States. Hon. B. F. Perry appeared for the Plaintiff. Tho defense was conducted by Messrs. J. P. Reed and Bobo. The case was referred to a jury aud ably and fully argued by tho counsel on both sides. In his charge, tho Judge said, substantially : Tho amount is small j tho principle, of over whelming importance. I should gladly have escaped from the consideration of this cnuc. The settlement of the question, however it bo settled, will carry poverty homo to sonic one. Great investments lie in bonds and notes given for the purchase money of negroes. In these, women and children have staked their all. The question is who shall hour the loss ? Pov erty and hardship must come. In my opinion the hardship must be born by tbod? \vho bud the misfortuno to bo owners,. It docs not come wL'/niu the provinco of this Court to adjust and oqucH'e the burdens of tho war. That office, tantas comjiomre, belongs to other than a judi cial tribunal. Abolition grow out of tho war?the position of theso Southern States in the war they waged against tho Government. Negroes were em ployed in mauy of the essential elements of the warj they oreated subsistence for the armies', ?-ected fortifications, and, in fuel, constituted (lie ridustrial basis of the great conflict. Tbe abolition of slavery thus became,a military ne cessity?emancipation an inovitablo moral re sult of tho war. These States could not bo recognized until they should recognizo what the war Had effected. It was competent for the United States to deal with slaves just as with other personal property. The owner must suffer. "Who suf fered when mules or horses were taken 7 or cotton burnt or Tilled, or ships captured at sea? Who, but tho owner of such property '( But tho laws of property, regulating tho relation ship of debtor and creditor, in the matter of the. mules, ships or cotton, were not abrogated. Debts or balances due on tho purchase of such mules, ships or cottou, wcro not cancelled. The debtors were not released. Their obliga tions remain' in force at this day. The seller never made a guarantee agaiust the action of war. Take the case of land. A. owns a fee simple. He sells and conveys the title he got, placing tho purchaser in possession of all the incidents of ownership with which he himself had been invested. If the State, in the exor cise of its right of eminent domain, should take the fee for public uses, the seller makes no guarantee against the State j ho is uot liable for acts of the State or agaiust confiscation of tho United States. In this case, the ground of defense, failure of consideration, docs not therefore appear to be made out; the warranty was iu every view good at the time it was given; its subsequeut failure was due to causes for which the seller of tho negro was in no wise responsible. Tho other ground of defense, payment by compulsion under the Sequestration Law of the Confederate Government, is equally un tenable. That Government uever had a legal existence, and payment of the debt under its regulations was therefore void. Under these instructions the jury retired, and soon returned with the following verdict: :'Wc find for the Plaintiffsixteen hundred and fifty-one dollars and live rents," the full amount, with interest. THE ORAN&EBURG NEWS. SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 7,1807. I1'Vh7c we reserve to ourselves the eight of defi ning our oicn political position by means oj our editorial columns, ivc mil be.plcascd to phblisli contributions from, nur fellow citizens upon tm grace, questions which now agitate the public mind, whether their opinions coincide, with ours or not. A district tieicsjHijwr, wo' consider, should be an index of the various shades of pop - ular sentiment in the section of country in which it circulates. Our columns are open, therefore, for 'tug communicationsproju rig written, ttc.com panted by it responsible nttnu . not ?personal in their character, nor absolutely injurious iu their tendency. m Clin Militia Officers Register? Wo unhesitatingly answor, Yes. only shadow of an argument against their enjoy ment of the privilege, is found iu their connec tion with the Patrol System, which prevailed in tho rural Districts in the olden time; and this argument falls through upon a moment's reflection. The last Aet of Congress on the subject uses the words, "administration or a general law of the State." Rut the Patrol Law was not a general law of the State. It was local and particular iu its ofhVts and ope ration, as far as militia oftieers were concerned. It was only iu sections outside of towns, vil lages and cities, that militia officers had any thing whatever to do with tho Patrols. All municipal corporations controlled their own police systoui, in their own way. So that, just in the sam? jnanncv as any law, which applied only to the cities and tbTns in {he Slate, would be called -"particular" and "local ;*v so likewise any law that pertained only to ngricuUtli'itJ sections must be called "local" also, and not "general." Why, there is one entire District of the State,?the District of Charleston,? where the Patrol Law had no force at nil iu this particular. Wc will not at this time enter into a discus sion of tho distinction between civil and mili tary officers. Wc would only refer to another reason why a militia officer should not be de prived of the privilege of registration. There were, in our State, officers of Volunteer Com panies, and officers of Reat Companies. Now. is it to be supposed that a Volunteer Captain in tho County shall be privileged, ami the Cap tain id' a IJeat Company, under a commission, word for word, like tho other, shall be d isl ran ch iscd'f' Again, shall the Captain of Rent Com pany No. 1. in the Kith Regiment, (in the city) he entitled'to rcgistor, and the Captaiii of Boat Company No, 1, iu tin- 14th Regiment he excluded from the lists. Such a rule would not work fairly at all, and shows still more forcibly that the patrol law was not a general law. Again, let us, for the sake of argument., say that tho patrol Jaw was such a genera] law, as produces disfranchisomcnt: then not only militia Of/iecrs but militia men are disfranchised. For the hist reconstruction aet says that those who exercised certain offices are disfranchised whether they have taken tho oath, or not. Jt follows, therefore, that if a militia Captain or Lieutenant is disfranchised by his connection with tho Patrol, then every one who has been Captain of a Patrol Squad would he also; for lie wa.s a police ..nicer I'm tho time being ..ml this would take in yearly every man iu the country, outside of tho municipal corporations: for nearly ovory one has boon Captaitt of such a squad in his turn. Hut this is^manifestly}] absurd; and yet it is based on exactly tho same argument, that is used to exclude militia officers. The truth is, that militia officers are not dis? franchiscd at all, on that account. The idea is preposterous. The matter was dctorminod at the very beginning of registration, under the very eyes of that departing hero, the Com manding General of tho Second Military Dis trict, as we find by the Charleston Mercury, which has been at much pains to bring before the public everything of interest in this con nection. ^ Our friends, therefore, who have beert mili tia officers before the \var, have only to go be fore the respective Hoards, and say, ""We were militia officers before the warj but we wish to bo registered as vottrs;" and wo pay but a just complinmnt to tho intelligence of the Regis trars iu this District, when we say that wo nro confident they will not be rejected. Returns from Different Districts. Wo cannot vouch for the accuracy of every portion of this list ; but we have carefully col lected the information therein condensed, from tho various Kxchnngcs we receive from the different parts of tho State. Tho numbers above-1000 arc generally full returns: the others are but results of tho first days of Keg istration. The indications arc that there will be white majorities in nine Districts, and black majorities in twenty two. The second round, however, may produce many changes i?J favor of the whites.

AUGUST 20.?Grant issued the order re lieving Sheridan, and assigning Hancock to the command of the Fifth Military District, and of the department composed of the Slates of Louisiana and Texas. During tho late contest the President placed himself squarely on his constitutional rights and duly carried his points. Tt is suggested that the following letter in which Thad. Stev ens acknowledges that the President still re tains the power of removal which Gen. Grant seemed inclined to deny, had much to do with the General's retrograde inovomcnt: Lancaster, Pa.)

Soon niter the coniiucnGcmcrrt of the last session of Congress I reported a fciU f*W* the committee of tho House of lleprcscnfrd?,"?.s, which con tained a provision prohibiting removal without the consent of the Senate. It nas2*od the House and was scut to the Somite. 'i'i'C .Scn ato struck it out and returned it to the Iloiilo, who refused to concur in the amendment. Tho result was a committee of conference, where an animated contest ensued. There were several other questions in con troversy between the houses, which the House Offered to yield if this could bb granted. The Senate persistently rblused,declaring that they would sooner lose the bill. As that would frustrate all our legislation, it could not be al lowed. Tho House yielded, with a warning of tho evils it would inflict upon the country. Some of the members of the Senate seeinod to dnubt their power under the constitution, which they had just repudiated, and outside of which ail agreed that we were noting, else our whole work of reconstruction was usurpation ; or pprhaps they had a desire to be thought gravely conservative and magnanimous. These ideas seemed to control the action of solnc half dozen Senators, who preferred trust ing the ('resident. My dear Colonel, a few Senators of great ability, undoubted patriotism a-.d purity, have become so saturated with what they were pleased to call "conservatism" ( whose moaning I confess I am unable to un derstand,) that 1 fear they will forgot the mon tier (.hat was slain in 1770. and again in 18G1, I and will thus 0.'' exeat damage to the creation ??

I have since seen tho report of a speech said to have boon made by-au Ohio Senator at Oauton, Ohio, which, if it bo truly reported and is to bo considered a definition of that doctrine, then it to me is Ycry alarming?worse than copporhoadisra.
