l'atterson seems in a fair way to get
his reward. 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.

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. We

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

Bluff box which came in so late that it
was not ojieiicd at all, was, Collins, 4,329;
Elliott, 1,534. 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.

MJ. GRAHAM, A BRO. have this day been
commissioned by one of the branches in Europe,
and also PATENT MEDICINES from every
part of the North, for the establishing of agents in
the 32 Counties of South Carolina, and they can
positively assert that they have already restored a
thousand to good dealth, whose doctors had pronounced
hopeless, and they are now engaged in
performing cures. As it takes time to go through
the many Counties, we advise the people of this
