Greenvill* New>. Columbia, Feb., 17. ? Mr Stevenson in the house today introduced the following resolutions which were adopted: "Whereas, there are rumors published in the public prints, charging irregations in management and condition of the State penitentiary, and whereaa justice to the present management (?f the penitentiary and the superintendent elect anil to the State, do tuands speedy and thorough investigation of all the affairs of said penitentiary. Now, therefore, he it resolved . ' by the house of representatives, the senate concurring.? "Section, that a committee consisting of two of the senate iind three of the house he appointed for the purpose of investigating the affair of said penitentiary. Sec. 2. Tint said committee shall have the right to employ an expert bookkeeper and slenogra phor, to send for persons and papers, to swear witnesses, to reijuirc the attendance of any parties whose presence uhall l?i>deemed n ores-iii y and to investigate fully tiansaaetious concerning the .(tiiitentiary and its management, and to take testimony either within or without the State, and shall have powo.i to take charge < 1" the hooks and vouehi rs ol' the institution. See. tJ. The committee at any time when they deem it. advisable may call to their assistance the attorney general. See. 4. It shall report its findings to the governor of this State, together with the testimony taken by suid committee. W hen the resolutions were introduced in the senate Mr. Barnwell expressed the opinion that they would involve a useless expenditure of money. The rumors, ho said, were founded on newspaper reports. Mr Henderson said that it was not upon newspaper reports'alono that the charge hud boon made. The senate adopted an amendmert that the report bo submitted to the legislature l?y the governor with his action and authorizing the committee to sit during the recesses.
