A clap of thunder in a cloudless sky Mould not have fallen on the public WHh a mure startling effect thin did tha dedaton of the Supreme Court in the oaae of the State against Judge A. t. Shaw.

An unfortunately aeiimoolooa debate on a bkf to pforide for the reorganisa tion of (h# Sooth Cafofro* Coflrge baa occupfed (he Bocae for the greater portion of (he last three days. The bill dosa not propone to reopen the college at Cbfumbta at preaent, but many member* who are advocates of and Interested In denominational in- etltutions ar* opposed to Its re eetab- liabmrnt, and to these especially many provisions of the bill are distasteful. While there are many afgtrmeats both In favor of and agafftet the proposed reopening of tbs college. It aeem* to me that the preeent ta a moat Inoppor tune thud for the agitation of euch a maatttfe. Our people afe too poor to aupport a State college, for (hey are ecaroMy able to spare their children from their fields to attend the public schools, so bard la their battle for bread. The denominational colleges which have been kept alive during the past ten year* by the generooa liber ality of their patrons and the patri otic self-denial of their faculties are deserving of the oontinnaace and aup port of our people. They cannot com pete with an lostftutloo fostered by the State, whose professors are paid out of ths public treasury, and sot oat of the tuition fees of Its student*, The bill will probably become a law, and a quasi matrimonial alllahc* between the South Oaroltna College et Columbia and the CUflta University at Orange burg will be cone urn mated under the auspices of Messrs. Memmlnger and Blmonton, of Charleston ; bat I will be h mistaken if the next Den- very much eral Assembly does not divorce thk ill matched ooupte. THK 8XX ATX. Tbit staid body has at Inst caught (ha Infection of speech-making from the Herase, and It baa done this week Just about as much aa the latter- make speeches. I find on its Journals that Judge Willard has asked aa in vestigation of the charges of bribery made against him by Oeoeral Gary, and that the Moffett Register law has met its death, eonderooed Uf that el- treme penalty by a large majority. By way of parenthesis, I have seen the Moffett Register aad examined Its workings. It is my opinion that it la a moat powerful temperanoe lecturer, simple la construction, but as reUfbi# aa a calendar dock. Whenever a drink la taken and registered the gong, al though not equal in volume of sound to that Chinese abomination so char acteristic of second class boU-ia, noti fies every ear within forty yards that more spirits have departed, and in this ilea its power as a temperance advo cate, for It I# no respecter of persons and tells upon swim and sinner, bach elor end benedict with the most com plete impartiality. It ie eald that the people of Virginia are highly pleased with its operations, that the bar-keep ers have been converted Into advocates and admirers ef a law that baa re duced drinking to a cash basis and combined potations and patriotism and, better than all this, that the (Rate auditor assumes from returns already made that the revenue derived from this new tax collector will amount to more than half a million of dollars. Aa a truthful chronicler of events I must record, although I cannot ei‘ plain* a fact hitherto unnoticed by any newspaper correspondent, that mar ried men are the aiakersof the longest speeches In the Legislature. Whether this is caused by their superior wis dom, or unaccustomed freedom* or de sire for a long session is beyond my comprehension. I merely stole the fact and leave its solution to the par ties most interested. The bill to create the new county of Palmetto out of the spper portion of Beaufort paaeed its second reading In the Senate to-day, its name being changed to Hampton, and we will soon have a new neighbor on our southern border. The report of the bond commission will come in this week and I will, in anticipation of that and other matters of Interest that will claim notice in my next letter, close my ootteepondeoce for this week.
