The Senate committee on Federal relations recommended inaction on the ground that the matter was in the courts, where it properly belonged, and that the General Assembly had no right 0 to interfere with the duty of a co-ordinate department of the government and the resolutions looking towards bis expulsion from the U. S. Senate were tabled. Mr. Corbin ha* had introduced in the U. S. Senate a resolution directing an investigation in regan! to the election of U.S. Senator from this State last Fall and if the Republicans choose to take up his fight there may be many a skirmish over the subject yet. Gen. Butler has also introduced a resolution to appoint a committee to inquire Into the charges that promise or reward Was the prioe on his part that induced l'atterson and t'onover to vote for his admission. S?? far as he (Mr. Butler) was ? ? - J ?-? i i concerneu nr uesircu, uv uu^m e?j uc ucmandcd, that the fullest investigation be lnadc touching his conduct in connection with hi* admission to the Senate. . The bill for the formation of Palmetto county was so amended last Thursday as to authorise the Governor to appoint a fpeo*al commission of two from Palmetto, two from Beaufort and one from some other county, to arrange the present indebtedness of Beaufort equitably between the two. The bill discussed by Messrs. Youuians, Myers and Miller, and was finally passed. We are finally in favor of the divis ion or the county. In the first place the county is a very large one with varied and diverse interests. Tlie division of the county would give us more low country representation, would ensure one more unequivocal Democratic county to the ? State, would he according but a fair representation of interests to that section which is as thoroughly peopled by a white majority as this part of the old county is with colored. We n:e a trading and commercial people while *he upper sectiou of the present county as a whole is agricultural. The on I)' interests affected by the change is that of the offices of Sheriff and Clerk of Court,"both of whom derive a large part of their fees from the upper part. It is Ipr that the county having so large a proportion of the office expenses to |?ay should have a share in them which thev never can have so long as the negro population outvotes ibem for all the offices of honor, pi offt or trust.

J?... ?4 i laiy iui iiiciu uit|?i?u in i It was reported last week that two government inspectors were in town commissioned to examine the proposed site for a naval station Here and report to the authorities at Washington. The hotel register showed the names of the two gentlemen, one hnilinj* from Ohio and the other from New York, but as they were on a secret mission nobody showed them any attention and they seemed to be easily satisfied of the condition of things, for, after taking a buggy ride to Old Fort and without going near the naval anchorage, i>or exchanging a word with a naval officer. they got vexed at some seeming omissiotfin their entertainment and left by the next train. This is often the way government agents conduct themselves and if tbwe ar^ bona fide inspectors they will return to Washington well prepared to report in full all the advantages offered here for the establishment of a naval station. TIM Official Count* The Commissioners of Election met at the Court Hou>c bust Thursday to canvas the vote cast at the late election for Senator. Owing to the strenuous efforts of the attorneys of each candidate to have many of the boxes thrown out for various causes the count lasted until Friday evening. The total vote as near as we conld - ?

The Commissioners deeidod to throw out six boxes, viz.* Brick Church, because the return was signed by only one of the managers; Hilton Head for the same reason, two of the managers appoiuted having refused to serve; Liwtonville because the return was signed by the derk to the managers instead of the managers themselves; Grahamville because the box was forwarded by express aud not delivered by one of the managers as required by law; Gardner's Corners because tl?e box was left at the place of business of the chairman of the Commissioners during his absence and he claimed to have no official knowledge of its delivery or what precipet it came from; Bellinger Hill Ixxau.-e there was but one manager. The rejected )*)xes contained 1.334 votes lor Mr. Collins mi l 21G for Col. KlKott, leaving in the boxes as passed by the board 2VDo votes for Collins and 1,31S for Elliott, or a majority of 1,677. The fight is expected to be renewed in Colombia and it is not impossible that the whole election will bo thrown out on account of the many technical irregularities attending it. ? In the House Fiidny, the bill to permit the Greenwood aud Augusta Railroad to j pay the hire oi convicts in its own stock i at p .r passed to a third reading, with an ] amendment providing that the StateJ sboi\ld never be liable for assessments. I the j lin*, re >!n*ion proposing an i i .fc&icudmeut to the Constitution of" the Slate ftativa to the office and. tenure of the Justices of the the Supreme Court and Judges of the Court of General Sessions, then came up. It makes the tenure of office of the Justices and Judges last during good behavior. In the House on Saturday last Mr. Brown introduced a resolution directiug the medical committee to make iuquirry as to how yellow fever was iryroduced iu to Port Royal, and how the "Gordon" tfas brought in. The bill to ameud the act prohibiting the sale of seed cotton at night, by extending the prohibition to Sunday, anu including in 'it rough rice, then cauie up. Mr. Brown moved to further amend by including all agricultural products. Mr Myers of Beaufort, spoke earnestly against the ft)l, and moved to strike out the enacting clause. The matter was finally compromised by reference of the bill to a special committee of the Georgetown, Colleton, Beaufort and Charleston delegations. The bill creating the County of Palmetto was reported engrossed, and ratified, where, as we have no representative to oppose or favor it, it will slip through 1?j ?:ii easily euuugu auu uuauiun vi umj nm be divided, for which we are all prepared and no one seems to object. The Hon. Geo. D. Tillman will remain at his home until after the Congressional recess. As regards his seat in the House of Representatives, there is no doubt of bis eventually getting it. In all probability it will be yielded to him by a vote of the House. But even should a new election be ordered, he will only h'ave to walk over the course.?Edgefield Advertiser. Senator Gordon, of Georgia, says that seven cotton mills have been constructed in the South during the past year, and as a rule their machinery are of the latest and most advanced patterns, built with the ocrtain knowledge that the South in manufactures must compete with the skill and experience of the East and of England. He also says that the mills of the South have been generally successful, aDd the errors and want of experience of the past, will doubtless be corrected in the future. DELIHQUBHT LAHD SALES.
