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.

D?ath of Gen. 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."
A long train of sorrowing, friends will
attend thai last sad j obsequies, and mingle
their sympathies' in"this great public loss,
and in this sad bereavement to his strick
en family.-Augusta Constitutionalist,

Overriding the Constitution and the " 1
Laws/
President Grant begins his second
term by still further overriding the Con
stitution aqd the laws. Poor Louisiana
is in sore trouble. 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.
Under these circumstances the citizens
send on an enlightened Committee, head
ed by Judge Campbell,, an ex-Justice of
the Supreme Court of the United States.

Their memorial ts said to be as fair, co-'

Byer penned. Grant coldly refused to
read it, and referred the matter to his
Attorney General He boldly upholds
the most flagrant Federal usurpation.

white people-lovers of a liberty which
has passed away-need send no memori

Ppr the past few days-we' Jrave been'
1 giving tho details of thos? outrages -in:the
South which have igrown, oitheV'-di?ectiy
or indirectly from the policy whkjh. has
been syratenuiticajly pursueu by .tb^e Ac-,
ministration toward thal utifo'rtunafe peo
ple. 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.

Miasissippi, Col. Henry L. Muldrow, a
prominent lawyer, killed Col. Jas. L.
Graves, a planter, in a street affray. We
learn that Gol. Graves fyjd both arms
broken; was shot through the body, and
had his skull crushed by the clubbing
of his adversary's pistol. Col. Muldrow

I MR. 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.
Tho occasion: as.an interesting one
aLhwere well dhsed, children, parents,
and visitors-ai; ali wcro impressed
with tho necessil of employing coiupe
tont teachers, ai having good schools
in their midst re hope these impres
sions will last, I o- only on the minds of
the patrons of tis school, but on. the
surroundingpouiry. W(o hope wo will
