Ho was not satiqfiod with hie first kicking out, but wants a second chauco. to thinks h0 stands a bottor showing in a field of five. Capt. H. W.

Captain'Rice wields a tronehant poi, and his truigot has ever given forth no uncertain sotind. Mr. Harmon bcones oditor, propriotor, press man and typo. Wo wish him ami-le success. ThE Register misunderstood our allusioh to the casting of 'ton votes for Beecher for Chaplain of tho Iouse. Far be it from us to fly in the teth df Gonosis and avor the existouco of ton rightoons mon in the old original -Sodom that was burned with brimstone. We moant that'there wore just ton ilihtcous mon in this New Sodom of un, rightoune ss-Washing ton-..which has not yot boen destroyed. Those wero the ton who voted for Booch or. I 'this connection wo may mention Another differenco betweeu Sodom and 'Beeher. Tho former had Lot's wife; the latter has lots o' wives. 'Wo trust the Register will made the amende honorable for having "gono back" on our Sunday school training. Genesis is our atr6ng point. We never got ninch fuithor. A conflict bf jurisdiction bctwoon the State -And -tho Tiited States 'Court has arisen in Spartanbirg. in the caso of a soldier, bavis, who killod a'n ill d distillor, Hall, a year or two sina. Attorhey Northrop appeared in the Staito Court boforb Judge Mackey, and moved for a discharge of the case, as it had been docketed in theo'Uited Stat'es Court, the killing, as defendant allcged, having takeu 'place in 'lhe regular discharge of his duty. Judge M'ackey cited the case of Little 1mid Barromn, in Bd Cranch, and another case in 7th C ranch, and in an oiabo rato opinion, rofused the discharge of the 'prisoner, on the ground that the Stato Court has the right of in vestigating whether the act w'as perforaioi in the line of duty. The case has been appealed, and will finally -reach the 'United States Supreme Court. Judge Mackey has always roelled .any littompted interference in State mattors by the Federal co6uts. County Courts. A writer in the Abboville Medium opposes tesbttto fCut Court for rialjustices, o h plea tha~t the bhange would subject the ounics'togreater expense than they bear 'at prosont. We have not timo to refer to this article at preent, further that to'sry it is based on two assumptions, one that the average cost of a trial that the Cuty Judge ouhld ro-, ceive a large salary, such aa in Alabama 'where 'the salary is 'three thousand dollars. The advocates of the County Courts, on the other hand, claim that this system will be both cheaper and better than the old. It starnds to reason that * eight or ton justicos, depending for rormuneration up)on the number of oases they boar, will do more to encourage litigation than a county judge wold, who receives a salary, irrespetive of work perCorr. V0 Wholjn (.ountt Court rii~ ho run for almost the same sum that tho trial jusficos at each col)t houso now receive. A a,in where the whole .logal bus;ness of the county i3 concentrated in one court, tho expenses of each ease can be roduced. Tho ilCr13ea3ed mfilOage) will be more than compensatud by the reduction inl costu fQr istsuing recognizances and war ants, ad ministering oaths, taking tostimony, and hearing cases. Besides all thig, is the fae that tho. higher the tribunal, the more correct will be its interpretation of the law. LET NO GUILTY MAN E3ALE. W hat a Taxpayer Thilk of the Inves tigatings--The Courso that 3hould bo Pursued- Prosocutions, not Peorsocu ions. Me[sdS. Eitor : In tho Thursday',i issuo of your readablo paer was puIblished tho joyful tidings that the ex- boot blaek of Hunf's hotel, alias "Bi;'ok Nash " had stoppe,I down and ont. of the higrh place ho has been disgra,Cing or the last decado. .liI a1 Mt!'. tidogen en, I ami puVled to mderst:nd the bont :md diri-ri.ion things sjc(Iu to bo takinl" in this matter. Tho Columibin Rrtgiier f.wetion ly says that "1,. R. II." stadl11 not only for 'R idway's Reay. Hliof. but also for "Resign, Rt IIIr and Relate." It is to ho1 hope1,l that we aro not to understand, that all that is necessary for any oni >f I ho gang of ru.,eals to do. is simply to rosiii his political olice. resturo a small por cent of his ill aeeumula - ted riches, or rclate a "twice told tale" to receivo total e_:eiption from ai puiishiment. To ".RR -i.," they don't caro a fig; for th-ir po litival positions, by (ho redoll.ption of the Stato and itb control b honest 1nd honlorable gentlel-men,arc such as to bo of no pecuniary ad vantage to them, and without Chwir compeers, are of no valuo in aiding. them to stoal. Thoso poiitions no longor give th0m lower to indulgt in their evil and corrl)t ways, and consequently to resign is no saeri lice whatever; to restoro a little, a small per cont. of whatever they have stolen, is no rest,oraion to tHic Stato, Uor1 any deprivation to them, as they will fully enjoy tho rela tively largn fortune left in theil possession. A confession, sueh as they do mako, wou)(l be, to a mA, who was onco ho)neat or' ho'noraIble, a severe puniiishme~t, if a glimmer of self respect was left in his breast. But as to these doughty thieves and political speculators wonever had even a fainut concep tion of ho nor, nor ever felt a blush of same ti ngo the check ; wihat in the world is it to them, to confess ther oos of corruption and villainy, if they bo permnittoa to on joy tho fruits of it. Or ; whLat it thu name of common sense de t.hey -care for "peaching" on then "pals"' if, by so doing, they, them selves, cscape t ho peni ten)tttry! 'There is commonly "honor among thiev~es" ;' but this set have not even a whit of thatt kind of honor. I do not wish nor do I intend, tc imnpugn the motives of our good1 men who have this matter in hand, lbut I (10 wish them to remember, 'that there are twvo stand points, from which oich and every quiestion and every act can, and will-bo view 42.
