The readers of the Courier haVe:alread?v been informed, through its telegraphic columns, of the result of the Senatorial fight in the General Assembly | today. Whether it was owing to the extreme sa vour of the Patterson flesh pots, or to the unpopularity of the opposing candidates, this correspondent is not prepared to say; but the one fact remains, that it was not much of a fight after all Honest John had what is known nf the vernacular, (and, as your correspondant had predicted,) as "soft a thing" aa a man can baye. He walked over the course, leaving his com Gtiters far in the distance, and was', in the iguage of the orator, "triumphantly borne on the. swelling tide of an over whelming majority," right into the United States Senate Chamber. 'Scott's past record dwindled down into some half dozen votes, and Elliott's merits were engraven on the hearta.of some^thir ty members only. The Legialature was overwhelmingly "Patterson, abd on the first b?llot settled the long" disputed 'matter. There is no denying the fact that this is a defeat of the State administration party, who, with a few exceptions were arrayed entirely on the side of Elliott. The Gov ernor the Attorney General, the Comptrol ler General, the State Treasurer, the Speaker of the House and the Chairman ot the Committee on Ways and Means, were openly committed to Elliott, and the avowed supporters of his claims'. Pat terson worked upon the finer feelings of themembers, and having the entire C naries* ton delegation afchis back at the outaet, obtained a comparatively eaay victory. It will be seen by the record of votes giv en below, that the Charleston delegation voted to a man for him. Whatever may be said of the means used by Colonel Patterson to secure the Bupport of the members of the Legisla ture, I am not disposed to believe that the same means were used to influence this delagation. I am further induced to this belief from the fact that there are some men in the Charleston delegation who are ?hove suspimon. -Mr. Jas.-P. Greene, wher' heads the ticket, is generally acknowledge ad to be a man of integrity,,and I ?circe-? jy Mink he wbulflallawi n?ms?lf?td be in' huenced by such means. The true secret if the matter seems to be an arrangement made between Patterson and the Charles ton men, by which the former agreed to rive to the latter a voice in the dispensa tion of the Federal patronage iii Charles ton, and the rumors now flying around ibout the sweep that is to be made in the Federal offices in that city, give color to this supposition. It is generally under .tood that the delegation will recommend Sf:, i . '.:> u* :.

During his remaks a di version was made by another colored del gate from the same county, between whom md Thomas there seems to be a kir.d of eud, ??nd who forthwith developed symp oms ol' a pugnacious nature. B. A. Bowley, the colored member from Jeorgetown and Chairman of the Com nittee on Ways and Means seconded the lomination in a labored speech. He claim d that the election of Elliott would re lect credit upon the State and BLOT OUT TI?E STAIN >n the escutcheon of South Carolina. If ie was defeated, it would be equal to say ng that they bad no use for intelligence, diility or culture hereafter. Samuel Green, a colored member from Beaufort, FIBED TM FIRST PATTERSON GUN. He went for the Elliott men, who, h* aid, had presumed to dictate to the color d men, telling them that they must do bis or be disgraced. His candidate (Pat erson) was endowed with all the qualifi ations necessary to make him the equal, f not the superior, of his opponents, e've .y one of whom had had a hand in every icheme of plunder and corruption that lad disgraced the State. The Beaufort lelogation, he said, had consulted and ,vouTd vote solidly for J. J. Patterson and ,hey were not to be thrown from what hev conceived to be their doty by any mell slurs aa the opposition had attempted .o cast upon them. Bowley ?eyt took the floor, under a luestion of privilege, and made another j lesperate appeal for his candidate, but it i ?pas evident from the buzz of approbation .hat greeted Green, that the race was i rerv nearly decided. J Prince Rivers, the military gent from iiken, nominated R. K. Scott, and ex- ! iressed the modest hope that he would I Eceiv? the majority ol the votes cast. J. D. RooeJtson, aScotch man from Beau-' ort County, seconded Patterson's popu lation. He said thai, the great rail road, ind commercial interests of the country ?equired all the ability that ?hty coylij j jive them to represent them in the Senate >f the United States.

Patterson, on Tuesday next, at tho election by the Leg islature, of which deponent is a member, the said patterson being a candidate for the United State Sonate. Deponent further states, that the said John J. Patterson told him that if he would so cast his vote, the said due bill would be returned to him, and regarded aa a cancellation of said claim. M. 8.

Nothing dismayed by phis proceeding, Patterson proceeded to the Trial Justice's office, a little shanty in a bacic street, and (.stated his readiness to give bond for his appearance oj- go info a trial of the case From tho evidence subsequently produced, jt appears that the aforesaid Trial Justice beeanio a little excited, that sundry and divers pistols were thrust at him, and ?jraye doubts expressed at the fesnecta liljty of'some of hjs ancestors. Seeing frhicn, Patterson was foll} to go off! and appear in the morning to give bond to answer the charge. About eight o'clock in the eyening, however, H. W. Hen dricks and Ijen Hernandez again arrested Patterson op a commitment for contempt of Court, and incontinently lugged the Senator off to*ml A petition was at once sent tb Judge ?.. J. Mackey, by Tim Hurley, praying ipr A WRIT OF HABEAS CQRPpB, and the writ was ipimcdiately se*ved upon the 'Sheriff. Judge Mackey hpard ?the pause at"Chambers,' Mr. .Chamberlain appearing for Colonel P?tt?rfl?ij? ' Before going into the evidence, Judg? Mackey sent a note asking Kirk, the Trial Justice, to appear, and show cause why the priso ner should not be discharged. Kirk, how ever, refused to put in an appearance, and Bent word by the messenger that he wouldn't come for all the M ickev fami ly. Whereat fvhe J, tfdge proceeded to gamine, the evi dence. Three'witnesses were' examined, all of whom testified io the facta as I have already Btated. Judge Mackey, after; hearing a decision holding that the power of a Trial Justice to commit for contempt did not extend beyond the verge of his Court ; That it was limited by the statu tory enactment to commitment for the observance bf due order in bia Court, and that as the evidence adduced* showed that the prisoner had committed no contempt in open Court, the commitment was Hie gal ; whereupon Senator Patterson was once more relieved from durance vile, and was again permitted to inhale the frosty air, and gaze upon tho moonlit atmosphere. The case will probably come up to-morrow, if it does at all, but there are grave doubts whether, the parties will press it. The Patterson then claim that they can ' prove the stattnWfc jo'be' untrue, and ' threaten prosecution for perjury, Spa the. prosecu tors, finding that there are no vacant Post offices up for disposal, will probably be squelched out. pa* A new paper ia to be established In Greenville, the beginriing number to be established In Greenville, the begin ning number to be issued about the first week in January.

Jesse and William Stanch", father and son, were the victimB- in the 'present' instance. Two brothers namedrespective ly, Barnard and Isaac. Hart, who jointly keep a store in Welt?orne; did the deadly shooting. It seems, as. the facts, h a ve been, reported to us, that . JEALOUSY A NP BITtEB HATRED existed between ^Barnard Hart andi Wil liam Stancil about au abandoned woman, who resides in the outskirts of the village, and Hart had notified young Stancil ?? writing that he meant to kill \n?n). or? sight.

Am effort at pacification on the part of'th?. fa ther .with the Harta having;-failed, the two Stencils proceeded to leave the place' on their return homeward. In .doing so they passed,within about twenty,steps "of | the.stone of the ' Harts, when they.? were immediately fired upon through- an open window of the buHding?and young Stan-' eil was'*1 .1 v i?ltl *n i>i SHOT DOWN,' dangerously if not fatally'wounded, at the < first discharge. A, bill shattered the thigh bone of the right leg within an inoh,or so. i of the hip-joiut. In this disabled .condi tion he returned the fire, of his assailants,, but' without inflicting upon them .any damage. His father, wishing' to profe'ei his wounded son, interposed his person and besought the1 Hart? tb "cease "firing.1' The only answer was al shot-a ball CRASHED THP.0U0H HIS BRAIN, and he lay dead by the side- of his dis?.N| bled Bon. Some fifteen or twenty addi ti on al shot? were'fired- at the prostrate bodies of the Stancils, several of them taking effect, when a gentleamn named Peter Micbler advanced to the front, and, throwing up bis arms, called. upon thp. parties in the store to desist from su?h in human butchery.
