It may interest some of our reai ers to know the professions of thoE who make their laws. We ther fore give the professions of th House members. It will be see that the farmers constitute a larg majority of the body. Out of 12 they have 68 ; so that there can b no reason to complain that thi most important portion of our pe< ple is neglected or forgotten, c discriminated against in the mattE of law making. There are in the House: Lav Vers, 26-1 of these is also an ed tor and 1 a banker. Farmers, 68-4 of these are als merchants, and 8 are physicians. Physicians, 14-1 of these is als a druggist, and 8 are farmers. Merchants, 9-4 of these are als farmers. Teachers, 3. Mechanics, 2. Contractors, 2. Butcher, 1. Banker, 1-he is also a lawyer. Factor, 1. Insurance Agent, 1. Carpenter, 1. Minister, 1. We are not able to give the pr< fessions of the Senators ; but Li proportion of the farmers is fully large as in the House. Stolbrand vs. Aiken. Our people sh6uld watch ver closely the contest now going on i town; they should attend the tal ing of testimony, and should ol serve carefully the evidence give and the parties giving it. If an witness be detected swearing falst ly let him be prosecuted at one for perjury. Col Aiken has ut doubtedly been elected to Congres from this District ; and were it nc for the fact that the next House c Representatives will have a Repul lican majority the case of Stolbrani vs. Aiken would very likely neve have been heard of. The defeate candidate has the legal right t make a contest and to get all th evidence he can in sup rt of hi case ; but the people ho electe< Col. Aiken to Congress should se that their rights are not sworn awa; by glib-tongued, ignorant Radica witnesses with impunity. The prominent candidates for U S. Marshal for this State are R. Mi Wallace, present incumbent, T. BE Johnston, of Sumter, and a Mr Adams, of Camden. Wallace wai nominated by the President, bu the Senate refused to confirm th< nomination. Johnston is the can didate of the stalwarts ; but Adami has the inside track. He is an Ohi< man and is a friend of Chief Justic< Waite. He came to this State afte the war, and has been engaged it business in Kershaw County since He has never been in politics Since his residence in this State he has always voted the National Re publican ticket, and the.State Dem ocratic ticket. He stands well it his County and wherever known, and his appointment would give more satisfaction to the people o: the State than that of any of the other candidates. The Directors pf the Penitentiary met in Columbia last week. The Directors think they will soon be able to make the institution self sustaining. There is a great de mand for convict labor, chiefly from railroad and phosphate companies. Messrs. Cahill & Wise offer $12.50 a month for all the convicts that can be spared for digging phos phate6. The Executive Committee of the State Agricultural Society met in Columbia the 2nd instant.

C., bef y Feb. 2, 1881. folk~ -. There is light on the electoral count plae e business. The Senate Democrats have in 1 nec Lresolved to support a resolution sub- pub s stantially the same as that adopted in the t 1837, when, as now, there was no and fdoubt about the general result, but and ,when there was doubt about counting Re~ a particular State, iis there is now. said r Unless the Republicans of both House take Sand Senate prefer that the count shall Stoe o go on informally, and another irregu. T e larly selected President shall be inau-. o a gurated, they will agree to this resolu- tici t ion. But the present count comn- rmar a pleted, something more ought to be Nei done. A comprehensive act should II 1be passed, covering the whole subject,La so that hereafter nothing will be ne- ruar cessary but to pass, every four years a Mar . simple resolution to go into joint con- ruar .vention. Our own party controlling WO .both Houses for the last two years is andi .not without blame that this has not Ma 3 already been done. H., t There is a better chance now of our 188] a agreement upon a funding bill than Co. -there has been since the session coin- and inmenced. The influences brought to said bear on Congress during the last week H-ob or ten days, both from the Treasury atto and from business men have had their F efiect on both Senators and Represen- bes tatives. It is unnecessary to say that pr that those influences were all favorable ber) to a higner rate of interest than the and House proposed, and to a longer term noti ou for the bonds, and to a lightening of part the National Bank's alleged burdens. ney, A well posted Representative said yesterday that if the Senate passed a bill making the bond and.Treasury note interest 31 per cent., the bonds Ti to be redeemable in five years and payable in twenty, and the notes re- Mn deemable in one and payable in ten fo years, the House will agree to the bill with ai single change-making the note interest 3 per cent. instead of 3?.

Gary, attorney for Col. iken, filed an objection and excep ion on the following grounds. I-t, 3eeause the plaintiff's notice that he rould take testimony was served on he defendant at Washingtvn on the !8th of January, 1881, and did not llow ihe defendant sufficient t4ne by he usual route of travel to attend, aid one day for preparation exclusive >f Sunday and the day of service. !d. Because the person nientioed :n he notice aforesaid for taking testi. nony in this case was not competent bor that purpose and not authorized )y law to take testimony in such cases. 'd. Because the names of the wit iesses to be exLUJined were not set orth ard speeified in said notice. [th. Because the plaintiff took testi nony at places where-he.did uut al. ege in his notice of conteat that there ras friud, violeuce or illegality of ny kind in conducting the election. ith. Because the testimony heretofore aken in the case was not confined.to a he.proof or disproof of the.facts al eged or denied ii the notice of cou est and the answer thereto.

Stoeber. who has been acting as ecneral manager to the concern, i.a a ephew of Stolbrand, which isn't as t should be. It is said that 2,500 1 fridarits have been obtained in this ounty so far to the effect that the ffiants voted for Stolbrand. The j ~tolbrand party proposed to Col. Gary o extend the time for testimony, rhich he refused. They also asked inn to designate some one before p rhom testimony for their side should e taken, but he will hold aloof and uke advantage of such blunders as hey may= a:ake. Logan's Bill. The long haired Republican Sena-j or from lilinois is much incensed ritb the Democrats because they de lined to vote for his bill pensioniag I 'reneral Graut,. and continues . to hake his shaggy locks at the "Rebel $rigadiers" in the most threatening sanner. At last advices this shak- s >g had no effect upon the Senators ri rho think differently from the valiant d li linoisian or noisian, nor is it likely >have. The Democrats fail to see ny reason why Gen. Grant should be a laced on the retired list of the army tthe expense of the public treasury. Ic voluntarily resigned his com-. s ,ission as General of the Army, to ecept the podrtioun of President of the e inited States. If, as is ebimed fo'r ed i by the stalwarts, he was the ivior of the Union, the Union has :owz hinm that it was not ungrate- 0 il by putting hinm at the head of its S - stinies for eight years. Washing T >n was the Father of his Country. its ery soul for tnaniy trying years. but 'len Washington laid down his office. the end of his term, there was othing said about pensioning hirn Fsuch a thing had been mooted he Tt ould have rejected it with indigna. on.

Mr. Banyard, on whose judgment ne country may well rely, struck the ey note when he ojected to the bill ithe ground that it was invidious to :lect o'ie ex-President and overlook I others. If Grant is to be pen oed. extend the same privilege to I who have been Executives of the epublic. But such a bill is wrong any event. A salary of fifty thou.
