Wednesday, June 13,1877.
Our Legislature.
Our law-makers, after remaining in ses- i
sion for seven weeks, adjourned -sate die;
on Saturday morning last, after, as we J
think, accomplishing a good work..
When the Legislature assembled, < Heaves i
was still holding on to rhe oiiice ol'i
Lieutenant Governor, and all the other!
Radical State otlicers were oecni>yingj
quarters in the State House and claiming
to exercise the duties of the otlices to j
wViiVh tlmv clniiDoil to h:ive been elected.
Whittemore, and other corrupt .Senators;
were ruling the ranehe. The Democrats,
by their persistence, have ousted these :
daspoilers, and otherwise done much to-'
wards restoring home rule, by organizing
and setting the wheels of good government
in motion. They have elected a i
good Democrat, (MeIvor) Associate Jus-,
tice, and have impeached the negro Associate
Justice Wright, for high crimes and ,
misdemeanors, and that improper person
will likely not sit upon the Supreme'
Dench again. At present the Chief Jus-:
tice, Wiliard, is acting with us, and with |
Melver on the Hench, the* Supreme Court j
lias disposed of Whipper, the negro pre-'
tender who sought to usurp J udge Heed's
position as Judge of the First Circuit.
Our Government in every respect is
working in harmony, and the Democratic j
party are solidified against the enemy, j
who are being defeated and routed at c\- j
cry point. The recent elections in the!
various counties which have hitherto
gone Republican show immense Dcuio-i
cratic gains. Although there have been j
quit? a number of elections, no llcpubli-]
can has been clvctcd to oilicc since the j j
General Election last JSovembor. j no j
delegation to the House of llepresenta- ,
tives from Charleston were refused seats,
Ifcnd when the new election copies oil", no- j j
body doubts that that County will throw i(
olf the shackles that have so long bound :
her.
It is true this session has passed few j
bills, but we believe no bad laws have!
11
been enacted. We hold that we have no j
reason to complain at the small number!1
of laws pjisscd, when they did so much i:
other important work under difficulties 1
which no other Legislature ever labored.
We think we have every reason to be '
. satisfied with the work of the session, and j
are ready to award our Representatives I
their just meed of honor.
The Augusta aud Knoxville Uailroau. 1
The Georgians seem to be in earnest!
about the new road, and it behooves us to '
bo up and doing if we would secure thej!
inestimable blessing of one of the most;1
ti... ^.nft,
gusta is already taking subscriptions to
the stock and they hope to have at an
early day one hundred and liftv thousand j ]
.dollars subscribed. The board of trade'J
of the city of Knoxvil'.e have passed res-1J
olutions directing their representatives in !<
Congress "to secure United States aid to j
the building of the lvnoxville and
gusta Railroad at the rate of seven thou- j
sand dollars per mile, and that they be!
requested to use such means as they may
think best for the accomplishing of tUis 1
work so vital to the interests of Knox-j!
ville." Resolutions were also passed re-1'
questing the President of the Road to,"
"secure the co-operation of the Reprc-'
sentatives of Georgia in Congress." i
It seems that the-projectors of this road ,
are working with a vim. Are Ave going <
to fold our hands and do nothing towards '
securing to our county this important '
railroad for this line section of the coun- '
ty which is so far isolated from any irou i
highway? The tax alone on the road.il'
n ? ,
there were no other advantages, will be .
of immense importance to us. Every (
dollar paid into the treasury by a great:
corporation releaves us to that extent,
The cost of grading, putting down ties,!',
building bridges aud laying tiie ircn is 11
?pcnl in the county, and will give em-j*
ployment to hundreds of laborers, while jj
a host of contractors will grow rich.! (
The lands all along tiie route would be,'
increased lbur-lbld in a marketable value, j
Towns will grow up on the line, and j
Eowndesvillo would assume proportions! t
it never heretofore dreamed of. If we!*
let this opportunity slip we fear we will L
never nave a rauroau on uie s;iv:uiiian j
^ide. We have natural ail vantages over]*
the Georgians, and they are now ahead ol' ^
us only in their interest and work for the
road. The road will cost more 011 the : I
Georgia side than on our side, and their
people of Augusta would sooner have the j j
road built in the Carolina side because; f
many of the monied men of Augusta; 1
hold stock in the Georgia road which!'
would be to some extent, injured by an- . >
other road running parallel to it. Ail-! t
gusta gets the trade of t he Georgia Hide 'j'
anyway. They now want Carolina trade' t
and will contribute more liberally to c
build the road on our side than upon their j1
own side.

the Fifth Circuit. j t
The whole people of this State, of what- 1j
ever political caste, will endorse the elec- j
tion by the Legislature, of General Ker- i A
shaw to the Judgeship of the Fifth Cir-|l
euit, in place of Judge Carpenter, whose i
term of office lmd expired. This is one ;'
more step towards home-rule, and is al
deserved compliment to ono of the pur- j*
est and ablest men of the State, who has ;
made himself illustrious for gallantry on ;
many of our hard-fought battle fields. 11
The General received 12S votes out of 13011
?Democrats and Republicans alike
showing tlieir confidence in his ability as
a lawyer and his character as a man. It ]

The following from Professor Ilood I *
proves how he stood in the Democratic *
caucus. We felt all the*tiine that he
could not be otherwise. He is one
our most useful and most highly respect- ,
ed members, and we take pleasure in t
giving publicity to the following: '

The report that I voted for Willard for *
Chief Justice in the Democratic caucus is i
wholly and maliciously false. .

The farmers should begin to talk up ,|
the fence law. The law rcijuires thcl <1
County Commissioners, upon application
of 75 citizens of any towusiiip, to call)
an election in that township to vote upon 1
the question of fence or no fence. Wt | !i

Wo give this important law in another j
column, which deserves ili?; attention ol\Ai
every voter in the county. We believe '
the pnl.'iie interest of the county dc niand j
the change. in our li'iico system for urniyi
reasons. 1 >> the tirst place the drain up-j i
1.11 cur timber lands has nearly exhaust-j 1
ed the forests. There is not now in (i,
the eonnty enoiip'!i rail timber to rebuild tii
tlie fences, lit the next plaeo our peo-itc
pie are not able to pay for the cutting and ;
hauling of rails, and il they were, it is t;,
labor that few like to engage in. Another j in
and a most important reason for not cut.Ill
ting down the forest is, that it is believedI.,,,
that the destruction of the forest is inju-j i?,
riou.s to our seasons. While we believe n<
that the new law should go into effect we!01

I)iscus?<iii? the pay of "tiembers.
In the House on Tuesday of last week
he pay of members was again discussed.
Mr. Caliison, of lCdgeiieid, ami Mr.
Iamilton, ol' Beaufort, occupied tin: atcntion
of the House with a debate npon
iio value of a modern legislator for hall
u hour, the former estimating the reai
alue of a lirst-class South Carolina
talesman at fifty cents per day, while
ir. Hamilton disagreed with him, puling
the value at ."SG per diem, lo the genial
satisfaction of the House, and partieilarly
that portion who favor payment
ur extra session.
Mr. Conner?The less wft discuss the
uhjeet of pay to members the better foils.
The people all ovt'r the Stale are bediming
to come to the conclusion that
he chief aim of our legislation is lo proide
for the pay of members of the Genral
Assembly. This question must be
etlled by a eorference eommiltee, beau
se the two branches of the General
Lsscmbly dill'er as lo what is proper. It
iceds n<4 appeal to this House to eonince
its members that we should n??t
grec to the Senate amendment. What
ias already been agreed upon by this
louse is loo much, but 1 don t know that
l can be amended. We have been advoaiiug
reform?retrenchment?ami have
?racticed it xvvrrrh/ ;ts lar as county oliiers
all over the State are concerned, ami
re have just refused to pay the solicitors,
rhile in attendance on the General Asembly,
more than per day, and now
\e ciaim for ourselves about ? > per day.
t is inconsistent with our action
villi reference to other ollicers, and
nconsistent with all our professions
luing the late piditical canvass, and i
lope it will be reduced below 5>?U0 by the;
'ommittee of conference to be apjiointed.
Mr. <>rr apoke in defense of the Scute
amendment to give the House
nd mileage t?I' iio cents for both of the
essions* except the Mackeyites, who
rcre in receive shod and mileage.
Mr. imuey, 01 adocviuo, tiioiignt. uiai
100 and mileage was a plenty lor both
essions, anil made a strong speech in ileL'liso
of Ins position, He was giad tliat

tower in the land, were present, and he
loped they would send abroad the words
nd actions of this House, and lei tii"
oustituents of tin* meudit rs know lio'.v
liev stood upon this salary question.
Mr. Verner, of Oconee, favored
in* ijoth sessions.
Mr. Hemphill, of*'hosier, thought
ier day fair compen-alion.
Mr. Andrews?I ain't in favor of no
alary grab. There is men here tiiat can
ilenlify to the fact that me and the genleinan
from Lexington has always been
oing all the lighting against high saluies.
1 don't ask you to give me one
out for last session. I am not to blame
?r it. 1 was recognized by the legal
enate. Whon the .Senate come 1 bowed
ubinivsion to this llouse. iJut J ask

Mr. Orr offered a modification of his J J"
[amendment, which gave the MackeyitesJ
,s:5yi) and 10 <'cnts, instead of $200 and 20! \"
j cents mileage. j
j Mr. It. II. Hemphill said that the news-!:
I paper reporters had taki'ii a great deal of j "
| interest in tiie pay of t!ic members, and j
| vet they each did not pay more thanjtl
"thirty-live cents laxes. Tliis atnotint, di- j tl
| vided among 125 members and attachecs, | m
| would leave a fraction of a cent to be paid j pi
iiv c:icli reporter. And then he made a! w
pathetic appeal to llio generosity of those at
! who paid thirty-live cents (axes to give
! the members u fraet ion of a cent each. i i
j Mr. (ianlt, of Beaufort, made an ap- q
peal for W>0. p
] Mr. .Hamilton, of Beaufort, favored u
taking ?<>00 for the last session and ?2001 rj
for the extra session; hut if a majority of
the House opposed the extra session pay. (.
I of course he would have to submit, and
would do so cheerfully.
After a lengthtv debate, the vote being
