Legislative Proceedings. On Tuesday, the 17th, in the Senate, there was a prolonged discussion on the Tax Bill. Several attempts were made tojxmtpono, but this failed, and dually the Bill passed without the amendment proposed by tha Finance Committee, making the Deficiency Tax seven in stead ol' five mills. Tho Bill to repeal an Act entitle*! " An Act to provide for a Genend License ; Law" passed its third reading. The Joint Resolution to authorize the levy and collection of a special tax to pay the past indebtedness of Kershaw County parsed its third readiug. .Jnim resolution (by Mr.-Cain) author izing the appointment of four additional Trial Justices for the County of Edge field. Referred to Committee on the Judiciary. In th* House a Bill was introduced to provide for the redemption from the State of lands forfeited for taxes. A memorial was presented from the Insurance Agents at Charleston against the proposed amendment of the Act . for the bettor protection of policy hol ders. . The Committee on Agriculture re ported unfavorably on the Bid to repeal the fence laws. On Wednesday, the 18th, ?he Senate was.engaged all day in discussing the Tax Bill. On its final reading, a motion was made to strike out the proviso at the end of the third Section, allowing the Treasurer to pay no deficiency claims uiless passed upon by the Finance Com mittee of tho Senate, and Ways and Means Committee of the House. An other hot and angry debate ensued, which lasted until late in the evening, when the motion to strike out was lost, and the Bill passed its final reading. Several bill* were passed to their third reading and sent to the House. Tho Senate confirmed C. J. Stoibrand, Superintendant of Penitentiary, and John Wooley as Trial Justice for Aiken County. The Governor notified the General As sembly, by message, of the resignation of Judge Orr, and a resolution was adopt ed by both houses to go into an election for Judge of the Eighth Circuit on Fri day. TJi ere are several candidates men ' tioned in connection with the office, among whom are General McGowan and W. E. Earlo The House proceedings on Wednesday were void of any general Interest. In the Senate, on Thursday, the lotti, 8anator Johnston, colored, of Pointer, introduced a bill to prohibit county treas urers of Charleston, Sumter and Edge field from paying out of the taxes col lected for the current fiscal year, any claims except those arising tile current fiscal year. Senator Cain, of Edgefield, Introduced a bill to Invest?gate and report upon the outstanding liabilities of the counties of Edgefield and Aiken. This scheme of Senator Cain's to in vestigate the thirty or forty thousand dollars In the way of liabilities, that are said to be out* um diu g against this Coun ty, is a right step in the right direction, ' and we trust the Senator will not let the matter rest until the bill has been duly enacted Into a law, and a Committee of competent gentlemen appointed to moke the investigation, who will discharge this duty fearlessly, and yet justly towards all. On Friday, the 20th, the Senate receded from its amendments to the tix bill, and agreed to the House amendments to the bill to make appropriations for the pay ment of the salary and mileage of the members of the General Assembly. The following were then passed, rati-1 s fled, and received the approval of the Governor : The bill authorizing and directing the .-^^comptroller-general to lsvy certain (fif teen, mills) taxes. The bill to make ap propriation (one hundred thousand dol- j lars) for the payment of half the salary j and mileage of the members of the Gen- j eral Assembly. The joint resolution to make appropria- j tion for tho expenses of priutin^, ordered ? by the General Assembly, for the ses sions of 1870-72. The bill to repeal the general license j law.

Ambrose B. Wright. This event has produced a deeply sad dening effect upon this cor uunity.. Throughout Georgia, and among ajl the brave soldiers who followed hi3 gallant lead, and served under the Confederate Flag with him, on many of the most hotly contested field* of the war, the announce ment of Gen. Wright's death will be re ?eived with sorrowful emotions. Early enlisted in the war as a private in the Confederate Light Guards, Gen. Wright was soon elected Colonel of his regiment, the 3d Georgia, and by his nallan try, mili tary talents, and fidelity to dutv, was first promoted Brigadier General, then Major General in the service. He served on many nt .iguinary fields, and was severely wounded m one of the bloodiest battles of the war. Disabled by his wounds, Gen. Wright returned' home," and was - elected to th? State Sona^'and President of the Senate, serving one term in that high of fice. At the close of the war, he became a resident of Augusta, where he resumed and continued in the active practice of his profession, until his last illness. Of dis tinguished legal abilities, and fine oratori cal powers, he ' maintained a righ rank at the bar, and achieved marked success as a lawyer. Superadded to his professional labors, he tilled, with much talent, tact and good iiidgment, the responsible position of Edit tor-in-Chief of the Augusta Chronicle & Sentinel, one of the foremost dailies of the South. He had but recently completed an arduous and triumphant canvass as Democratic candidate for Congress, in the Eighth Congressional . District, during which he labored incessantly, and made brilliant and effective speeches in every county in the District. His election in October by a very, decisive majority was a splendid tribute to his abilities, and proof of public confidence in his fitness for the position. Gen. Wright waa a native of Jefferson county, Ga.-, where he commenced bia pro fessional career and became early distin guished by his oratory, his legal ?cumen and close attention to professional busi ness. He moved to Richmond county about fourteen years ago, and has been during that period one of our. most active and influential citizens. Thus has fallen in the meridian of a conspicuous career, one who seemed, in all human calculation, destined to a bril liant and prosperous future. Had Provi dence spared him awhile longer to his constituents and his State, hs would have marked his name yet higher in the role of the distinguished men bf Georgia. He would have taken at once high rank in the National Councils, and won for himself a name of which his family, his friends, and the people of Georgia would have been proud. Alas! curbed in bis high career, be is cut down by remorseless disease. After da vs of severe suffering, he has sunk to rest' No clastf of arms-no political 'tur moil disturbs him now. After life's fitful fever he sleeps well."

And the President insolently refuses to receive a statement of her wrongs at the bands of a commit too of her most honorable citizens, sent to .Washington for the purpose. It ls a long story about Louisiana's troubles, but in brief it is this: Warmouth and Kellogg, both Radical carpetbaggers, but Warmouth the most acceptable to the people of the State, want'to go to the Senate. Warmouth was getting the better of the fight, when the U. S. Judge, Purell, backed by Casey, the head of the New Orleans Custom Honse, apd brother-in-law of the Pr?sident, took Hides with Kellogg, the Administration candidate, and seized, upon the Capitol' with troops. And out of this violent proceeding bas flowed partly strife, op pression of the people, confusion of pub lic matters, derangement, of business, and general uncertainty for the future.

The disease may be traced "' tb that1 "'source aud io ri? other. T6? President! ii' responsible for the present' revolutionary condition of affairs which have reached itt sad and a perilous ?rjais bo.tb, in Louisiana and in Alabama../ He has. held the .shield of authority over the thieves and plunder ers who have robbed and ruined those States. Ho has given them countenance and succor. He has emboldened them by turning tte scale'in their favor whenever the honest masses of the people have risen against them and threatened to wrest from '"them the power which they have so shame ' fully and criminally abused. He has en couraged them in the conviction that there is no outrage too daring and no robbery . too gigantic for his approval. Under the cover of such authority it is impossible to ascert?in the degree ' of corruption that has been reached or tp measure the enor mity of the crimes perpetrated;. If the reeking; horrors of their rule could be dragged to tho light of scandalized day the country would stand appalled at their infamy. His- emissaries have spared nothing. Even appropriations for tb?i asylmugiof. , the diseased in mind and. body, the rey? , enues of orphans, and taxes, wrung from, the emaciated bosom of the entire South, have gone to satisfy their cupidity'- and their greed. Their tainted hands have been laid upon municipal and State poli tics, and they have corrupted whatever they have touched. The property of the citizens has for years been eaten away by their gnawing assessments. Nothing, in short, has been kept sacred from their rude and violeilt invasions. Statutes are mere cobwebs'; constitutions have lost all their inviolability. And now that in two States the people have legally succeeded in driving these criminals from the control of affairs, they hold on by violence. When their ascendency is imperiled they appeal to the the Presiderit, and ' the president orders United States troops to ?support them. The most respectable clements of the com munity remonstrate and plead,for the pro tection which thu constitution guarantees j they plead in vain. They 'nave sent manly and digniiied protests ; these pro tests have been spurned. Every struggle they make is but a struggle against fate. Like the chained viotim writhing under the weight of his fetters, their exertions only enable them to realizo the strength of the gripe and the vigor of the arm that bolds them. For years they have furnish ed the country with the proofs of their forbearance and their patience. They have presented a . pitiable picture of a brave people struggling against the oppressor's Wrong. 'They have shown with what fortitude they can bear their many arid crying grievances, boping that a sense of justice would return and touch' the hearts of. those who had tyrannized over and trampled upon them ; for we are told that even Ute most cruel and ar bitrar}' despot* have been constrained to the exercise of magnanimity by the digni ty and courage with which their victims have borne sufferings wrongfully inflicted. The course of the Administration, how ever, toward both Louisiana and Alaba: rna, banishes all hope of relief. It is im possible for a single Sta)e lo prevail against a combination ?? wicked und so powerful as that of the carpet-baggers and thc Ad ministration together and that there is a coalition between these two force-s no one can longer question. In every emergency, thc President has shown his sympathy for the thief ?md usurper in their efforts to plunder and oppress thc honest citizen. In every emergency that has' arisen, he has turned the sword against the former, and in favor of the latter. No >ono can now mistake jus . position or entertain a hope that ho will change it. He has nev er varied 111 his policy which lias been con stantly, directed against the best interests of society, against the eternal rules of jus tice-against humanity itself. /rs9* On Thursday last, in Starkvale, Miasissippi, Col.

EDITOR : I take the ' privilege',0*' propping you a fewTines upon1 (th? cljise of'bur School, w|h?ch occurred 'on 'the' 129th of Nov.lastf IraB. Jones teacher. The morning being very cold, the St rohs of the school'thought there would :be" but few spectators to witness the ex hibition, examination of tho students, ?tc. But the people in the siirrotmding country,1 kn'bvrlng that the'community weren?t giveii: to failures, and knowing something:?!1 the 'quality of the teacher, they wer?-eager' to be witnesses on' the occasion. Consequently, ii?-'doe time, there was a respectable crowd of bright >facos on the- ground. '. The exerci?es commenced by spelling in : Webster'* Dictionary. Tho spellers were chosen by Martha Etheredge and Hassle Worts. ; The spellers acquitted themselves nobly, and ?howed to all around their prpercss.In that branch. Next was Grammar Class No. 1, which ' answered overly question asked them, by the teacher and Rev. P. Derrick. "After No. 1, No. 2, which acquitted themselves as scholars well trained. ' -, i Then followed the Geography and His tory Classes, all promptly answering questions put to them by the' Teacher, Mr. Harris; Mr.'P." Derrick and others. ! Now for tho Biack-*Bsard and Mathe matics. Here the skill of the student and teacher was mafie plain and visible before many a gazing ewe and calculating mind. Ho! here comes the A- B. C. class. This class in terests everybody-(this class was started most of them in the alphabet ten months ago)-they spell, they read, and they answer questions in Arithmetic, all eager to answer, First ono little bright oyo said after the examination, " Mr. Derrick tried to stall us, but he couldn't.'* Now conies tho dinner table. Oh ! how delicious. Sec what theladics and teach er have bern doing ; all kinds of savory and sweet-aieats, Apples, Candie*, etc. Tho Sclioolh&s a separate table to them selves,-how tlujy enjoy it.. Tho crowd' proralstuouslj were invited to^ne of those nice tables, and all atc and enjoyed tho glorious feast. Now comes another interesting time: thc reading of Compositions. 1st, Mar tha Ether?dgo, on Education r 2nd, Sam uel Derrick, on Drunkenness; 3rd, Amanda P.oberts, on the Garden ; 4th, Hassle Wertz, op the Close of School ; ">th, John Langford., op j^qtpuMty. i Then followe.1 the Speoohos. 1st, Hen ry Derrick ; ind, Fred Derrick ; 3rd, George Ethorckge; 4th, Tillman Shealy; 5th, Luther Derick} ^>th, Noah Wertz; 7 th, J ?ihn.. Derick; 8th, Elbert Rizer; Dib, Joseph Wetz. They all did well. After which; the patrons and crowd genorullj' calle' on thc teacher, IraB Jonesi who gaia a very 'interesting ad dress on eduction arranging it under the h'ead?f Phylcal, Mental/ and Moral ; impressing thawo latter especially on thc students, od urging them not. to neglect the ' forner. Mr. Harris, and Revs; Wcrb!, 'errick and Caughman, all made address. The teacher lien gavo prizes to the following studets, viz: Fred- Derrick, Samuel DerrlckGeorgo Etheredge, Mar tha Etheredge, Luther Derrick, Noah Wertz,-four hring received prizes at previous examinions.
