The President's Message. The Army and Navy Appropriations Discussed -The International Exposition in Paris and the Prison Congress in Stock holm-General Topics Post poned to the Regular Session. WASHINGTON, October 16.-FEL LOW. CITIZENS OF THE SENATE AND HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES : The adjournment of the last Congress without making appropriations for the support of the army for the present fiscal year has rendered necessary a suspension of payments to the officers and men of sums due them for services rendered after the 30th day of June last. The army exists by virtue of statutes, which prescribe its numbers, regulate its organization and employ ment, and which fix the pay of its officers and men, and declare their right to receive the same at stated periods. These statutes, however, do not authorize the payment of troops in the absence of specific appropriations therefor. The constitution has wisely provided that "no money shall be drawn from the treasury but in conse quence of appropriations made bylaw," and it has also been declared by statute that "no department of the government shall expend in any one fiscal year a sum in excess of appro priations made by Congress for that fiscal year." We have, therefore, an army in service, authorized by law and entitled to be paid, but no funds avail able for that purpose. It may also be said, as an additional incentive to prompt action by Congress, that, since the commencement of the fiscal year, the army, though without pay, has been constantly and actively employed in arduous and dangerous service, in the performance of which both officers and men have discharged their duty with fidelity and courage, and without complaint. These circumstances, in my judg ment, constitute an extraordinary oc casion, requiring that Congress be convened in advance of the time pre. scribed by law for your meeting in regular session. The importance of speedy action upon this subject on the part of Congress is so manifest that I venture to suggest the propriety of making the necessary appropriations for the support of, the army for the current year, at its present maximum numerical strength of 20,000 men, 1eaving for future consideration all questions relating to the increase or decrease of the~number of enlisted men. In the event of a reduction of the army by subsequent legislation during the fiscal year, the excess of appropriation could not be expended, and in the event of its enlargement, the additional sum required for the payment of extra force could be pro vided for in due time. It would be unjust to the troops now in service, and whose pay is already largely in arrears, if payment to them should be further postponed, until after Con gress shall have considered all ques tions likely to arise in the effort to fix a proper limit to the strength of the army. Estimates of the appropriations for the support of the military establish lishment for the fiscal year ending June 30th, 1878, were transmitted to Congress by the former Secretary of the Treasury at the opening of its session in December last. These esti mates, modified by the present Secre tary so as to conform to the present re quirements;-are now renewed, amount ing to $32,436,764.98, and, having been transmitted to both houses of Congress, are submitted for your con sideration. There is also required by the Navy Department the sum of $2,003,861.27. This sum is made up of $1,446,688.16 due to officers and enlisted men for the last quarter of the last fiscal year; $311,953.50 due for advances made by the fiscal agent of the government in London for the support of foreign service; $50,000 due to Naval Hospital fund; $150,000 due for arrearages of pay to officers, and $45,119.22 for support of the Marine Corps. There will also be needed an appropriation of $262,535.22 to de fray unsettled expenses of the United States Courts for the fiscal year ending June 30th last, now due to the attor neys, clerks, commissioners and mar shals, and for rent of court rooms, support of prisoners and other defi ciencies. A part of the building of the Interior Department was destroyed by fire on the 24th of last month. Some immediate repairs sud temporary structures have in consequence become tiecessary, estimates for which will be transmitted to Congress immediately, and appropriation of the requisite funds is respectfully recommended. I take this opportunity, also, to in vite your attention to the propriety of adopting, at your present session, ne cessary legislation to enable the peo ple of the United States to participate in the advantages of the International Exhibition of agriculture, industry and fine arts, which is to be held at Paris in 1878, and in which this gov ernment has been invited by the gov ernment of France to take part. This invitation was communicated in May, 1876, by the Minister of France at this capitol, and a copy thereof was submitted to the proper committees of Congress at its last session, but ro action was taken upon the subject. The Department of State has received many letters from various parts of the country, expressing a desire to par ticipate in the exhibition, and nu merous applications of a similar na ture have also been made at the United States legation in Paris. The Department of State has also received official advice of a strong desire on the part of the French government that the United States should partici pate in this enterprise, and space has hitherto been and still is reserved in the exhibition buildings for the use of commissioners, for the transporta tion of goods, and for other purposes in connection with the object in view, and as May next is the time fixed for the opening of the exhibition, if our citizens are to share the advantages of this international competition for the trade of other nations, the necessity of immediate action is apparent. To enable the United States to co operate with the International Exhi bition which was held at Vienna in 1873, Congress then passed a joint resolution making an appropriation of $200,000, and authorizing the Presi dent to appoint a certain number of practical artisans and scientific men, who should attend the exhibition, and report their proceedings and ob servations to him. Provision was also made for the appointment of a num ber of honorary commissioners. I have felt that prompt action by Con gress, in accepting the invitation by the government of France, is of so much interest to the people of this country, so suitable to preserve the cordial relations existing between the eovernments of the two countries, that the subject might properly be presented for attention at your pres ent session. The government of Sweden and Norway has addressed an official invi tation to this government to take part in the International Prison Congress to. be held at Stockholm next year. The problem which Congress proposes to study, how to diminish crime, is oue in which all civilized nations have an interest in common, and the con gress at Stockholm seems likely to prove the most important convention ever held for the study of this grave question. Under authority of a joint resolution of Congress, approved Feb ruary 16th, 1875, a commissioner was appointed by my predecessor to repre sent the United States upon that oc casion, and the Prison Congress hav ing been, at the earnest desire of the Swedish government, postponed until 1878, his commission was renewed by me. An appropriation of $8,000 was made in the sundry civil service act 1875 to meet the expenses of the commissioner. I recommend the re appropriation of that sum for the same purpose-the former appropria tion having been covered into the treasury, and being no longer availa ble for this purpose, without further action by Congress. The subject is brought to your attention at this time in view of circumstances which ren der it highly desirable that the com missioner should proceed to the dis charge of his important duties imme diately. As several acts of Congress, pro viding for detailed reports from dif ferent departments of the govern ment, require their submission at the beginning of the regular annual ses sion, I defer until that time any fur ther reference to subjects of public interest. (Signed) R. B. HAYES,. President of the United States. WASsINGTon, D. C., October 15, 1877. WASHINGTON, October 17.-The case of the State of South Carolina vs. Jno. J. Patterson was called to-day before Judge Hlumphreys, of the Dis trict Court. Gen. Jas. Conner, At torney-General, and Mr. Jas. Lowndes appeared for the State, and Messrs. Shellabarger, Cook and Pelham for Senator Patterson. The defence of Senator Patterson, as stated in the pleadings, rests on the following grounds : 1st, that Hampton is not Governor; 2nd, that there was no le gal Court, no legal Grand Jury and no legally elected Judge; 3d, Chief Justice Willard, who ordered the spe cial term, was not the legal Chief Jus tice ; 4th, that the General Assembly which appointed the Committee of Investigation was illegal; 5th, that Chief Justice Willard, Judge Ker shaw and the Grand Jury conspired against the rights and liberty of Pat terson, and that the indictments were the result of the conspiracy ; 6th, that he was not a fugitive from justice ; 7th, that the Constitution only al lowed a State to demand a fugitive from a State, and that the District of Columbia not being a State the Con stitution did not apply, and the Act of Congress authorizing the Chief Justice to surrender fugitives was un constitutional and void. No exemp tion from arrest on the grounds of Senatorial privileges was claimed on account of the indictments being stat utory, which takes the case out of the Jonstitutional exemption. The case was fixed for the 31st inst. We have tried Dr. Bull's Cough Sy rup in our family, and can assert that it is the best remedy for a cough or cold ever introduced. Price 25 c.ents.

Nearly all the Radical rascals that have been caught up by the In vestigating Committee turn State's evidence-Woodruff, Jones, Nash, Lee and others. They have been led to do this by the promise that if they would tell all they know and pay back their stealings to the State it would be well with them. Some object to this plan of dealing with the criminals. The Commit tee is probably right. "The State needs money much more than she needs convicts." [.News & Courier. It would cost the State a very large sum to try all these criminals and convict them, and then it would cost heavily to keep them in the Penitentiary. Besides this if none of them had been promised immu nity from punishment the Commit tee never could have found out the facts they were hunting for. The promise to let Woodruff off was the "open sesame." Large amounts of money have thus been brought in to the State Treasury, and many of the rogues have been driven to re signation. We are willing to trust the Committee. They are in a po sition to know the best course to pursue, and-being men of character and wisdom, we can trust to their judgment. The Senate.. 'W ien the Senate adjourned last May it stood 16 Democrats, 16 Re publicans and wie Independent. Whittem ore (Republican) resigned, and Coker (Democrat) was chosen .o fill his place. Nash, of Richland, Gaillard, of Charleston, Maxwell, of Marlboro, and Corwin, of New berry, all Republicans, have like wise resigned. Their places will be filed by Democrats. Even if no other resignations take place the Senate at its approaching ses sion will stand 21 Democrats, 11 Republicans and 1 Independent. The Independent is Cochran, of Anderson, Chairman of the Investi gating Committee. The tide of war in the East has turned. The Turks have been se verely beaten in recent engage ments.

WASHINGTON, October 16.-In the Senate, during the morning hour, a large number of bills and petitions were presented and referred to appro priate committees. Among the bills introduced was one by Mr. Beck, of Kentucky, for the removal of all dis abilities imposed by the fourteenth amendment to the constitution of the United States, which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary. The Senate, at 12.35, on motion of Mr. Edwunds, took a recess until 1.15 P. M. In the House, after a struggle for precedence, the case of Rainey, of South Carolina, was taken up, when Mr. Cox sent to the Chair to be read papers from Gov. Hampton. The committee appointed by the Republican caucus yesterday to con test the roll of Clerk Adams are on the qui vive, and the proceedings in each case will be long. Ben Butler has been selected to manage the case of Darrall, of Louis iana. Darrall has certificates from Kellogg and Nicholls, is on the Clerk's roll, and has received pay to date. Butler thinks he has a good case. Hale has charge of Rainey's case and is making a set speech. A Democratic caucus of Senators to-day resolved to wait the indication of what the Republicans intended to do regarding the Senators from South Carolina and Louisiana before adopt ing any line of action. The Republican Senators caucused on committees. An incidental colloquy indicated about an eqaul division as to whether the session would be long or short. In the House, the qnestion as to swearing in the two South Carolina members-Rainey and Cain-occu pied the attention of the House nearly three hours. Cox, of New York, Bright, of Tennessee, and other Demo crats, argued that the question should be referred to the Committee on Elec tions, as in the Kentucky cases some years ago, and Mills, of Texas, and Potter, of New York, with Banks and Butler, of Massachusetts, and Hale of Maine, argued that inasmuch as Rainey and Cain presented a prima facie case, they were entitled to be sworn in, and then to have the ques. tion of the validity of their rights re ferred to a committee. The House took the latter view by 181 to 88, and Rainey and Cain were accordingly sworn in. Objection was withdrawn in the case of Darrall, of Louisiana, and he was sworn in. The case of Elam, of Louisiana, was discussed, but no result was reached. The President's message was read and referred to the committee of the whole. In the Senate, a resolution contin uing the committees of the last session until further orders was adopted. Beck introduced a bill to repeal the act of July 2, 1862, and such sec tions of the revised statutes of the United States as perpetuate the oath therein prescribed ; referred to the Committee on the Judiciary. [The object of this bill is to repeal the iron clad oath.] Bailey, of Tennessee, presented the petition of the Southern Methodist Publishing House, of Nashville, for indemnity for the use and consump tion of its property in 1864 and 1865; referred to Committee on Claims. The Senate is full, except Morton and Sharon and the excluded Senators from Louisiana and South Carolina. FOR THE HERALD. Our Washington Letter. WASHINGTON, D. C., Oct. 17, 1877. While the re-election of Randall and other efficient officers of the House is un questionably an indication that the Demo cratic majority mean the Forty-fifth to be preeninently a working Congress, it at the same time gives assurance that the proper interests of party will be protected in the House. The sentiment of all the Demo ratic Representatives is'favorable to a rigid adherence to the old organization. The Administration, which some time ago ex pected to find votes in the market when a Speaker should come to be elected, could not have purchased one vote, even if one would have given it the organization of the ouse. The Representatives, in electing Randall, have given the best possible prooi that they mean to have such a sessio,n -conservative, industrious, safe-as will trengthen the Democratic party every where, and thus make doubly sure the revo ution so nobly begun by the people at the Dolls. This re-election is also in the line of civil ervice reform, as it continues in power ~hose who had acceptably filled office. Mr. Rayes, like a guide board, points the way mut never walks in it. We have taught him lesson in reform. The opening proceedings of the House ere not of great interest. There were a 'ew objections to swearing in of Southern nembers. Mr. Hale got the laugh on him elf by introducing a resolution instructing he Clerk to undo something that be had iot done, which shows that the Republicans, 2aving made laws and governed the coun ry by party caucuses for many years, are lot prepared for the open and fair manner a which Democrats intend to do it. Hale's esolution was prepared in advance, in ~aucus, to prevent some rascality, which he Radicals, judging others by themselves, upposed Democrats would attempt. The senate adjourned early, and no legislative usiness was transacted or attempted. In he Senate the wish seemed to be to make e necessary appropriation for the army end adjourn. In the House it is the general vish to go on with public business. Mr. Clapp's paper, anti-administration, Ublisles a new version to the letter written >y Hayes to Garfield, and which induced he latter to withdraw from the Senatorial ontest in Ohio. As now published, Mr. Iaes expresses confidence in the elevation >f 'Garfield to the Speakership if he should emain in the House, and promises all the ssistance the Executive can give. Mr. iarfield did not get the Speakership, but te is better off than he would have been f he had gone to the Senate for the brief erm given up to Stanley Matthews. If Mr. layes was working for the good of Garfield, Le buil'ded wiser than he knew. In the confusion of statements it is im ossible to say what course Senators will ake on nominations sent in by Mr. Haves. f any tha t are particularly distasteful to prominent Senators are sent in at once, I hink there will be open rebellion. If, on he tary.-. the bitere doesao a hlackhoo, Among the subjects sure to come up, whenever business is entered upon, is an investigation of the workings of the Treis ury Department. I hope Senator Davis, of West Virginia, who asked for this investi gation during the last Congress, and was answered with a reference to a standing committee of the Senate, will get i special committee this time. He believes the affairs of the Department are so managed that the public has no just idea of what is:being done or of the financial condition of the country. He will again ask for the only channel-a special committee -tbrough which enlightenment can be gained. Being, as one may say, poor relations, our petitions and renionstrances, as citizens of this District, however just and reasonable they may be, are looked upon "in the States" as an impertinence. Let me once more assure your readers that what we, District people, desire, is exactly what guilty people do not desire, viz, investigation. We wish every citizen of your State, especially if he be a member of Congress, to know all about the debts the District owes, and how incurred, the taxes, the value of our pros perity. Having secured this knowledge we wish him to act exactly as he would if the case betwen the general government and ourselves was a case between two individuals. SOLON. Editorial Review.

"Let the Just Censure Attend the True Event." In making note of a matter we should "nothing extenuate nor set down aught in malice." The young man whose name so suddenly and sadly appeared in print as Williams alias Banks, forger, &c., bore an un sullied reputation as an industrious, competent, h"nest and frugal farmer. He went to Columbia on business, and while there, through some super inducing cause, owing to the frailty of poor human nature, came under the influence of the demon drink, and losing his money, he drank the deep er until reason was for the time de throned. In this dreadful state of distress and semi-unconsciousness be sent a dispatch to Newberry for money in the name of the gentleman, Banks, with whom he worked and whose confidence he enjoyed. Mr. J. D. Cash, who had the power of prosecu tion, knowing Williams' heretofore good character, and learning that the officer sent to make the arrest found him lying drunk upon his bed at the hotel, with his door open ;, and learn ing, further, that he had not tasted food for several days (thereby show ing his unconsciousness of the very grave offence committed), set aside the prosecution, and gave Williams hospitable care with needed medical and material aid at his home. The young man is fully awake to his er ror. Has Mr. Cash saved a soul alive ? How easy to crush the erring, the helpless and the falling ! "To err is human, to forgive divine." MERCY.

NOW AND THEN. It is only now and then that such men as Hon. Alex. H. Stephens, Ex-Gov. Smith and Ex-Gov. Brown of Ga., endorse a medicine for throat and lungs, and when they do it is pretty good evidence that the remedy must be good for the cure of coughs, colds and lung affections. They recommend the GLOBE FLOWER COUGH SYRUP, and their testimo nials are to be seen round the ten cent sample bottles of the Globe Flower Syrup, for sale by all druggists in Newberry. A sample bottle relieves the worst cough and will cure sore throat. Regular size bottles, fifty doses, $1. 2 VERY GOOD REASON. The reason why only one sample bottle of MERRELL'S HEPATINE for the Liver will be sold to the same person, for ten cents, by our Druggists, is because of the enormous expense of importing the Hepatine into this country; but as there are fifty doses in the large size bottles, it seems two cents per dose is cheap enough after all for a medicine that cures dyspepsia and liver complaint. All who have not had a sample bottle are entitled to one for ten ets. at all drug stores in New berry.
