Tbo report of the Chief Constable presents a full and satisfactory account of the proceedings and expenditures of the body under his control during the past year. Captain Hubbard, in the discharge of his- responsible and unpleasant duties, has acquitted himself creditably and efllticnlly. Strong hopes wore entertained that, after the expiration of the late heated contest, it would have Knnn rl An?v?n/1 r? /I 1.1 ^ ?? wvii uuviuuu ttu%iouuio Lii uie|ajt;ii>u v;utirely with the services of thfs forc-o, and orders had been given looking to that result on the lirst of November, butt the unfortunate and disgraceful occurrences recently in the Counties of Laurnns, Union, Spartanburg and Newberry, in which outrages were perpetrated, and-valuable lives were sacrificed, have compelled the post-; ponemcnt of that desirable result, j Recent indications, however, cneour-l ige the hope that the postponement ivill he but temporary,, and thai the police duties of the State will soon; evert to the local authorities. Up! o this time no arrests have been nade of the authors* and participaorsin the recent murders and outrages, and, having thus long waited on ho local", arthoritics in vain, active neasures are now in progress for the irrest of the criminals, THIAI.

Owing to the existing prejudices, ma tiie aimeuities 01 ootaimng immrtial decisions Jit litiiraicd cases, j ho Executive has, unfortunately,' teen thrown exclusively upon the j uembers of one political party for! lis choice of Trial Justices, and, in ; I any case?, persons without the re-] uisito qualifications have been rcemmended-. It is very important hat .this tvil bo corrected, anj we| nay rcesonably hope tliat in future ai ?idor field may be opened to select! rom, among Mich of our citizens as; re distinguished for their intelligence, j impartiality, an?J love of justice.

A correotfon of these i buses is loudly demanded. There j' riould be, also, an essential modifica-1, on of l he amount of co*ts permit-r id to be charged, and the State thor-i iie-hlr nrotected amiinst the abuses'. ? J ? r unprincij)led men holding these osition3. The' extravagance of the 3?t at present, in cases before a trial ustico are, in many instances, a deial of justice, as, in most of the inor Courts, they arc greater in riountthan the sum in litigation. | ho powers and the duty of the Mag-i. trate should bo well defined, and* the vercst penalties imposed for theii r olation Xono should be held more ^ imllv amenable to the law than n w r ioso who are chosen to administer it. would here remark that I must ncc-T isarily depend vevy much upon th.e!j embers of* tho Legislature for the', laracter and fitness of Trial Justices. jj id I am disposed to consider cducaon as an cssent'al element among lem This would not be only be , roper in itself, but would afford an>{1 Iditional stimulus to its acquisition.: y making a knowledge of the elcmen- ' iry branches an .indispensable require to appointment fur office a h'gher ade of servico would be scoured, as ell as a more efficient performance ic ' it. 1 i COUNTY COMMISSIONERS. , I would direct your attention to: 1 ie laws defining the powers and du- * es of County Commissioners, and j icir perversions and abuses. From j ie frequent complaints against some <. 1 the Boards, it would be imagined \ lat they were devoted more to pri- | ite acquisition than the faithful dis- j large of a public trust In neigh- t C\ f* P/Uintf! ""'a i,'v' " v i jnnrissioncr is looked upon more us 1 honorary station, bestowed as a ark of confidence and trust in thc^ jsiness capacity of the individual, |' itiicr than as a position of pecuniary j j nolument, and, except in the neigh- . >rhood of lar<rc cities, tho compcnsa-! | on is but trivial, seldom amountiu^L > more than from fifty to three hun-; j red dollars per annum. Stringent ;t .ws are required for tho prevention j, nd punishment of abuses, which jj ill restrict expenditures within lc-L itimate bounds, forbid all participa-n on, dircct or indirect,' in contracts, ij ir which proprosals should be inva-jc ably advertised, restricting thek mount of Count}'- Orders issued, con- { ituting the County Auditor the per-ij ancnt Clerk of the Board, by whom Ir 1 orders should be signed and issued, j r. THUST DEroSlTS. ( Since the Bank of the State ceased t Derations there has been no- suitable j leans of securely depositing funds ( eld by tho Courts. It is of great j nportance that provision should bo s iade by law for the security of such j ir.ds, both for the preservation of air uro administration of that impor- , mt branch of Judicial jurisdiction, j* id for the protection of suitors. 1 laces of security should be. indicated, id provision made for the deposit ofj Jcquate pledges from parties author-;1 ed, by law, to become custodians of t u-h funds, and means should be pro- I id(d for increasing' such securities, js oni time to t-ime, so as ta alford sul'-jC L-ient protection to .all amounts eo t ;pos^!d, and the control over snch , i jposffs, while in tho hands of snch j t L'positories, should be further sccur-j*i i by allowing to the Courts sunima-Jt Y remedies against th?m, to the samcj( stent as if they were tho regular ap-j( oiutcd receivers sf tho Courts. J i JUIies. The attention of the last General J sscmbly was called to the necessity it t' u cnaogc in the system of selecting!] iries. As at present conducted it isj1 able to be and is perverted to great it buse, on accoun t of the character o.f i < ae persons placed upon them. .It is ^ highly important that the jury-box should be placcd beyond the reach of political influence or prostituted to the purposes of men who arc themselves guilty of crime. It should bo filled with our best and most reliable citizens. The appointment of a Commissioner of-Juries has been tried in i some of our sister Slates, and has! [been found to work admirably. j COMMIS SIONER OP PUBLIC BUILDINGS, j I In view of the frequent expendi-i j ttires for furnishing the public build- j lings, and the irresponsibility of the! j mode in which public money is dis burse! therefore, I would recommend the designation of somo officer who! should have a supervision of the pub-j I lie buildings and grounds, and of all j J expenditures for tlieiV furniture' and improvement. THE BLUE KI1>GE RAILROAD. I regret to inform you that but little progress has been recently madej {upon the Blue RMge Railroad. The j liberal policy pursued by the Legislature was obstructed by parties, 'prompted by personal aggrandize; jinent-nnri political prejudices, entering into combination to throw obstacles in the way of negotiating the bonds, which prevented their Pale at the time, and befo^ these' difficulties were overcome, the war in Europe int^vened and rendered their sale impracticable. 1 have no recommendations to make on the subject, as all the laws necessary are in existence. ' and will, therefore, refrr 3"ou to the annual report of the President of' the Road for till the necessary information to an understanding of the details. It is extremely unfortunate that personal ambition or political rancor should he permitted to delay I or interfere with the progress and I completion . of a work of such vital and transcendent importance to the ; prosperity of the State uud its chief commercial citj^ \ EMIGRATION' AND LABOR. While I am willing and anxious, by . all legitimate means, to encourage and promote emigration to this State of all peoples who are homogeneous in customs aud usages with our own, that arc willing to labor, as well as those Who wili bring into it skill and r t . _ a r* _ a. t _ capital, i cannos lorego ine expression of my opinion that the passage! and enforcement of stringent laws forjt the protection of life arid .property, s and tho free and unrestricted expression of politic a' opinions, is all that is 1 necessary to accomplish that, purpose r in a State tha: presents so many attractions and advantages Co the emi- a grant and capitalist as ours. LABOR AND CAPITAL. There has been much discussion * upon the alleged scarcity of labor, ind a variety of schemes has been ( suggested for its alleviation; but thus ^ far without practical result. The importation of foreigners, either Christian or Pagan, can wwlc but an inconsiderable influence, as these area*; keenly'alive to the facilities of ira proving their condition as tJic natives whom the}' attempt to supplant, and i ivill dispose of their services to those who will pay the highest prices for lliem. Jly own impression is, 'that the present labor of tho country, "naiive and to the manner horn," furlishcs tho most economical, the most 7 killful, and the most efficient svstcm >5 / p )f labor for the South, and cannot adrantagcously bo substituted for anyL )ther. A true appreciation of the it nutual dependence of capital and la-ir< jor, and a disposition to arrange, ^ imicabiy and equitably, terms of J,' igrcement between them, would go s iir to reconcile existing difficulties, a inc remove a fruitful cause of disseniion and irritation among our' own ^ people. Inducements might also be t< icldoutby which the ranks of the )t*odu( tive class may l o largely recruited from those who are non-pro- ^ iueers, and whose complaint is, that ? hey can "get notiiinglo do," ami also ? jy grants of land to tenants in fee, B he payments, properly secured, run- ? ling.over a long series of years, to lio.se who may settle in families. r LANDLORD AND TENANT. B Attention is called to the necessity B )f a cheap and speedy remedy by * vhieh the owners of property may ? *epossess themselves of it by a sum-jr mary magisterial process, while | s< )onest poverty is deserving of our ytnpathy and entitled to nil legitinato protection, yet there is too ^ auch reason*o believe that there are f ascs in which the law is perverted, vhich. by their vexations results, com>el landlords to enhance their rents, ^ ind militate .".gainst tho interests of j, he public at large. APPRENTICES. C The attention of the last General ~ Assembly was called to the necessity t| trn'1 import: nec of a law to regulate , ind define the relations and obligaions of employer and apprentice. (] \n intelligent and industrious worknan has within himself tho elements ?f independence and respectability, lis art is his capital, of rrhich he | :annot be divested ; his labor is al- J vays and every where in demand. As llustrating the effect of idleness as .he source of crime, it is stated in the Report of the Prison Association, V ately issued, that of fourteen thou- ^ sand five hundred and ninety-six s prisoners confined in tho Penitcntia- g' ics of thirty States, in 1870, more ,han ten thousand of' that number, or >vcr seventy pev cent., had never earned a trade This pregnant fact <* h;.mvii vx juuruuuu luit'iuri i .0 those who have in charge the train- ^ ng oPboys and girls for tho active lutftsof life. Framing such a law as s suggested, the amplest security ihould be provided that the apprcn,ice be protected from cruelly, and inustico, and that be should receive an idequate amount of education. 'RESERVATION* OF GAME, AND ritOi'AGATI0N OF FISH. Many of the States in the Union ir.ve enacted laws* for the preaervaion of game, . by the prohibition of cillingof them during the breeding .eason, As the wanton and indis- ^ jriminate shooting of birds and gamo ti inimals duiing-the breeding season' t: nust result gradually in their extincipn, arid to the encouragement and nultiplication of myriads of dcstrucive insects, to the great injury and lestrueUon of vegetation and the ,'ropR, I would call your attention as i worthy consideration. In this con- ^ icction, I would also recommend the ^ protection and encouragement of lrtificial fish breeding, by protecting ,he owners of fish-ponds from tresDaises and depredations. A law A ,vas passed by the last General As'embly, authorizing tho appointmcut >f eight Fish Commissioners, for each 1 fudicial Circuit,and dofininj the du r ' ; tics Ihoroof. These appointmonl were not mado for tho following roa: jons: It was found that compctcn J men could not be procured for th salarj* authorized to bo paid, and n greater rcsi'lts would havo been al taincd by tho selection of incompc tent men than without an}'.'It wa thought best to leave tho whole buL Ijoct lor additional legislation, in th< !hope that it would conform to Ux pra'tice prevailing in those State which have had most experience an< success in fish culture, by appointing one person experienced in tho busi ness, and known as Fish Commission or. Mr Seth Greene, who has beer so prominently connected with* th< artificial propagation of migratof} fish, has boon, during the past sum mer^ employed by the State of New York, in re-stocking the Hudsor River with shad, and has been hatch ing from oirc hundred thousand tc one hundred and fifty thousand daily He Ktates, in a published eomniuni cation, that he can satisfy any per son with common sense that all the rivers on the const can be stocked with shad, so.as to make them equally plentiful with the oldun time.
