Chambe.lain appointed Judgu Thos. J. Mackey to investigate the oontinu. ally reourrit%g troubles in Edgefield County. Judge Mackey is one of the ablest,and most outspoken Re publicans in the South, and has ro ceived n any marksof favor from the State and Fedoral Administration. He laye the blame chiefly upon the gross ablisos in the county govern. ment-, and declares that the habit of dolored.wilitia o3licors in calling out ainIed iiien for the settlement of per. sonal quarrels between whites and blacks is a means of oppression and a prime cause ofA4sorder. The same view was prbeoented in special ,cor rspondonue of the Tribune several .onths ago, and applies to nearly all the. distur,i4noes of the peace that have oequrred in South Carolina during the last four years. By abating the militia nuisance Gov. ,(,bamb,e'rlin may give another evi -denc.ofs te,sineerity of his profes siona -e' &adesire fior: reform'; an< we are inclined to think lie -will do so.
