The report of this office furthi shows a marked iwprovement in th; management of the public school fund In October, 1877, the amount of claims outstanding againqt the school fund of the :veral Counties was: $209,8_40.66. At. that time orders on the school fund rarely brought in th market more than twenty-five cent on the dollar, and often could not b. sold at any price. Now they are paid in full each year by the County Treasurers, while the past indebted ness of many of the Counties has bee entirely liquidated. Reports frow some of the Counties have not yet been received, but a statement show ing the exact condition of the in debtedness will bc submitted to you during the session. By the end of another year, the school fund of all of the Counties, except three or four, will be free of debt. The Superintendent makes the fol lowing recommendation for the con sideration of the General Assembly 1. That an act be passed prescrib ing the manner in which average attendance shall be estimated, and regulating the mode of apporticning the school fund. 2. That an appropriation be made in aid of normal institutes from the same fund from which the expenses were defrayed last year. 3. That authority be granted to the faculties of State Normal Insti tutes to issue certificates of qualifica tion aad diplomas to teachers in pub lie schools. These recommendations, coning from the source they do, are entitled to, and no doubt will receive, your careful consideration. The fund donated by the United States government for the establish- I went in the States of agricultural and mechanical schools is in this State ap propriated under the direction of the trustees of the South Carolina Uni versity to the maintenance of two schools. The one at Orangeburg, in connection with the Claflin College, has been established for some years. arid is accomplishing a valuable work. It is confined to the colored youth of the State, and during the past year 390pupils received not only the tech. nical instruction implied in the name of the school, but also the advantages of a course in some of the higher branches of education. The school for the white youth at Columbia has been more recently established, and has yet not reached the full measure of its usefulness. It has opened the scholasti6year with 59 students in at. t,-ndance, and will, I trust, soon ob tain a leading position among the ed nCational institutions of the State. TheState Military Academy at Char leston has been suspended in its op eration since the late civil war. This has been due to the fact that the building known as the Citadel, in which it had its seat, has been, since the close of the war, in possession of the United States authorities, and has been used by them3 until recently as a military post. It is understood that the general government is now pre pared to restore it to the custody of the State. It is desirable that this property be recovered and again de voted to the purposes of higher edu cation, in the facilities for which our needs are greater than the sources of supply. A measure will probably be submitted to you at this session to accomplish this purpose; and you will permit me to' say that in my judg mnent, it is now practicable to reopen this school and it should be done. GEERAL LEG3ISLATIoN. At your last session commissions were created to inquire and report to you at this session upon such amend ments as were advisable to the rail. road laws of the State, the election laws, the militia laws, the tax laws, and also upon amendments to the Con stitution. These commissions have had the subjects committed to them under consideration, and will no doubt report exhaustively upon them. There is another law, however, the continuance of which has elicited much discussion, and will no doubt receive your attention. I allude to what is known as the lien law. It had its origin immediately after the late civil war, when the farmers of the State were bereft of live stock, implements and supplies with which to renew their planting operations. In addition to this they were gene. rally encumbered with debt, the lien of which would attach to any crops they might produce, with such credit as they could obtain for the necessary means of doing so. It was proposed by the law then enacted and now un der consideration to provide that a prier lien might be created to protect him who ad'vanced supplies for the making of the crop. Its object was was to provide against debts existing at the time of its passage, the enforce. ment of which upon the products of the farm would have destroyed the credit without which the plough would have been idle in the furrow. It was to enable a community of prac tical bankrupts'(for the land, their only property, had then no saleable value,) to commence the struggle of life anew. This object was long since accomplished. Those pre-existing debts, the pressure of which was the result of the devastation of war, have either been paid or adjusted, or the un fortunate debtor, succumbing to the inevitable, has fallen from the ranks of business life. But the law has been continued and now operates chiefly as an increased facility in obtaining credit for farming opera. tiens, the security it affords the len der, and summary methods it employs for the collection of his debt being the prominent feature. Credit has been called the poor man's capital Without credit all the operations of comm nercial life, except those of the simplest form, must cease. But un limited credit, or credit too readily obtained, is, like wealth derived from others, not always an unmrixed bless ing It is claimed that the credit which the lien law procures is no ex ception to the rule ; that it results in erious daiage to the best interests oi :he State. The( State Agricultural 'ociety has resolved to mt.morialize ;oar honorable body upon the subject l'he Commissioner of Agriculture, as ihis duty, will bring the matter fully :o your attentiou. The Board of Ag riculture has ftrmally declined to ex press an opinion on the subject, and public opinion, as indicated in the atterances of the press. is divided up )u the merits of the cuestion. I do iot propose to suggest a decision. Coaing directly from the people, and instructed in their wishes and their needs, you are better qualified than I am to reach a satisfactory conclu ion. But there is one phase of the ritestion upon which I deem it my duty to express the convictions I eu tertaiu. It has buen in soue quar ters suggested to enact a repea,l of the law to take effect another year. It seems to me that this will be in. eurring all the evils of repealing the law without securing one of of its ben efits. Such action by this Legislature will take effect when a newly elected Legislature is in existence, and can only be operative by the sanction of the last, while such legislation on your part will be provocative ol miore injurious agitation than a direct and unqualified repeal. ' therefore can not but think this prospective legisla tion unwise. PARDONS AND COMMUTATIONS. I have deemed it proper to exercise Executive clemency in twenty seven cases during the past year. Of these, sixteen were full pardous, and eleven were commutations of sentence. In accordance with the provision of the Constitution, I will. at an early day, transmit to you a full statewent of each case. Jo,soN HA0o1>, Governor. Washington Letter. From our Regular Correspondeut. WASHINGTON, D. C., Nov. 24, 1881. The crowds in attendance upon thE Guiteau trial have been even greatei the second week than they were the first. People of all classes pack them selves into the Criminal Court roon like sardines in a box, and those whc cannot get in jam the entrances and passage ways. Men, women and children, many with their lunch baskets, and some with lorgnettes daily crowd together in irretrievablt confusion. Ostrich feathers, beads ribbons, laces, and other ornaments ol female apparel are damaged and torc in the scramble, but their owners ar( not dismayed ot discouraged. ThE reserved space within the bar is s< filled with ladies and prominent per sons, including several representative. of our clergy, that there is scarcel3 room for the lawyers who wish to heai the case. Mrs. Blaine was a solemti and sorrowful spectator two or three days. Doubtless the antics of the prisoner have been the cause of ex citing greater interest in and attentior to the case. Whether or not he i: insane is a matter to be judicially de terumined, and there is some difference of opinion among those who have wit nessed the proceedings thus far; but the prevailing belief is that he is act ing a part It seems hardly possible that a court will adjudge a man in sane enough to be irresponsible wh< has shown so much method and suck lear appreciation of the consequen ces of his acts From the day he fired the shot he has stood in constant fear of publie vengeance. Yet eon. eeit and insolence are his predominant characteristics. Over fifty members of the House of Representativcs, and quite a numbei of Senators, are already here making preparations for the Congressional session, and looking after such polit ieal interests as they happen to have at stake-especially the officers in their respective States and districts. Th( President is at work on his message, which, it is understood,is to be a. short one. There is some question whiether it will be put in type before it is sent to Congress or not. Mr. Arthur sayi he don't want any confounded news. paper correspondent to steal it and have it published before it is delivered. Nearly all the Department reports are in, and most of them have been out lined in the telegraphic dispatches. The reort of Postmaster General James is in some respects a very in teresting document. It shows, in his review for a number of years, how much a Department of the Govern ment can stand and not go all to pieces. The Post Offiee .Department has been the victim of public plun derers ever since public plundering be ame a popular industry in this con try, but it has steadily gone on, near ly always keeping up with the de ands of the people and promising better for the future. Mr. James does not offer any radical suggestions for the improvement of the Depart. ment ; he adopts some schemes of his predecessors concerning postal savingk institutions, the reduction of money fees, and adds a suggestion of his own that salaries of postmasters in most of the larger cities shall be increased. The retiring head of the Department has clearly not dealt with his subject as he would have done with a cer tainty of remaining in the Cabinet. There is a chance for the Presi dent to look after some of our diplo mats abroad. Searcely had we got Uncle Hannibal Hlamlin safely off for Spain-having been sent to a mild limate so that he would not have to buy an overcoat-before Gen. "Steve" Hulburt and the illustrious Kilpa.t. ri, who lost his hat so many times during the war, and now seems to have lost his head, got up a diplomat i scandal down in South America. Thie State De'partment is waiting for :ficial dispatches but according to what has been learned these two war riors, who represent this country in Dhili and Peru. have been taking ifferent sides in the dispute between hose Governments, and making the United States ridiculous.

The Annual Report of the Direc tors and of the Superintendent of the Penitentiary for the fiscal year ending October 31, 1881, waR pre sented to the Governor last week. From a copy of the report, for which we are indebted to Superin tendent Lipscomb, it appears that this institution of the State, which was formerly one of the most ex pensive and most tronblesome, is now being managed with commeud able economy and in a mann(r highly satisfactory. The report shows that. last year's appropriation of $23,600 has not been needed, and every dollar of it remains in bank to the credit of the State. The report further shows that the cash on hand from the pro ceeds of the Penitentiary amounts to ,21,199.99, beside scrip of th Savannah Valley Railroad for con vict hire to the amount of 83,380.00 Work has been done on the prisor wall and other improvements made in the prison to the value of $2,000 The report further says that if the officers be allowed to use the earn ings as they have done for the. past two years they will need no legisla tive appropriation for the coming year except for the payment of offi cers salaries. There were upon the prisoi rolls October 31st 690 convicts, distribu ted as foPows: R. S. Pringle, Sum merville, (Phosphate works) 120. al $10 each per- month:; Cahill & Wise Ten Mile Hill, (Phosphate works: 82, at $12.50 per month ; Augusu~ & Knoxville R. R. 46, at 87 pel month for 21, and 8$12.50 per mont1 for 25; the State's farms, neal Columbia, 157. Within the Peni tentiary A. C. Dibert is working 86 at 50 cents each per day, in the manufacture of shoes. The report shows that there is due from contractors on account o: escaped convicts $25,000: thE claims against these con tractorl have been placed in the hands o: an attorney for enforcement. The Directors and Superinten dent make the following recommnen dations : 1st. That the State pin chase the land immediately in front of the Penitentiary for the purpose of erecting upon it suitable build ings for the residence of the Super intendent and other officers of th< institution;: 2nd. That provision be made for employing a regular sur geon for the Penitentiary at a sala ry of 81.000. The prison discipline has beer str-ict but kind, and the inmatel have enjoyed remarkably gooi health, as is fully proved by the re port of the Sur-geon, Dr. D. S Pope. The repoi-t is a ver-y satisfactory one in every particular ; and the officers '.eserve much credit for the manner in which they have dis charged their duties. Experience has shown that it iP not a good plan to employ convicts on farm woik. The State of Geor gia has just sold its convict farm o: 2,900 acr-es for .$29.000, and has decided not to use or hire any more convicts for farm labor. Col. Lips comb, the Superintendent of th< South Carolina Penitentiary. thinks that convicts should no longer be hired out for farm labor-, and re commends that the contract witlh Mr. Seegers for v;orking a large plantation near Columbia be termi nated, with Mr. Seeger-s' consent, this year. Convicts can be hired out to much better advantage on railroads and in phosphate works. jA bill was introduced in the House a few days ago to so amend the liquor law as to allow the manufacture and sale of domes tic wines, and also the sale of ar dent spirits in quantities of ten gal. lons. The first portion of the amendment was adopted ; but the latter portion was killed as dead as The Election of Judges an Other Offleers, The Legislature met in joint se sion Tuesday to elect five Circu Judges for four years. Judge C. Presslv, of the 1st Circuit, Jud J. H. Hudso%, of the 4th, Judge V H. Wallace, Of the 7th, and Judt J. S. Cvthran, of the 8th, were r elected without opposition. T1 nominees from the 6th Circuit we: Senator I. D. Witherspoon. of Yor and Representative J. J. Hemphi: of Chester. Witherspoon rbceivc 84 votes, Hemphill 64-Withs spoon elected. Judge Mackey w not a candidate for re-election. Ti nominees from the 2nd Circu were Judge A. P. Aldrich, of Bar well, and Senaor J. W. Moore, Hampton. Aldrich received 9 Moore 54-Aldrich elected. Judge Sam'l McGowan. of Abb) Ville. was re elected Associate Ju tice of the Supreme Court for tl next six years without opposition Col. A. P Butler, of Aiken, w; re elected Commissioner of Agrici tnre without opposition. Repi sentatives W. D. Johnson, of M rion, and A. S. J. Perry, of Charlt ton. were elected members of t] Board of Agriculture Senators Bradley, of Picker and McCall, of Marlboro'. we elected Directors of the Penitenti ry. James F. I-lar, of Orangebu. and F. W. McMaster. of Columb' were elected Trustees of the S. University. The Lien Law Will be the subject of much d cussion in the Legislature. The will be a sttong effort made to i peal the law, and the fact that t Governor, himself a prominent a experienced planter, favors the i peal will have considerable weig] It does not appear probable at tl time, however, that the law will repealed. The repeal of the 1: now would be a great hardship many. This much can be doz and should be done: Allow a li only for corn and bacon-the or supplies that are absolutely nec sary for running a farm. The Lag lature might define --agricaltu: supplies" to be corn and bacon. this were done it would leave room for donbt, and would to away from the law what its opl nents claim to be its greatest e' viz., the inducement to the fara to run too deeply into debt. I the law continue with this legis tive - restriction another year ; the end of that time the wha farming interests will be prepar for its repeal. Yesterday's Columbia Regis says: "Mr. Geo. Johnstone, Newberry. made a very spirited a sensible speech yesterday in I House against hasty legislatio: Mr. Johnstone certainly had a ve good and appropriate subje Hasty legislation cannot but very imperfect, and time saved such means is no economy. Ta your time, gentlemen, and do yo wvork dleliberately ;otherwise y will not do it well. Judge Mackey claims that I speech at Georgetown we.s not c rectly reported by the Ttnes. He says that he did not char the whites with injustice in ref usi the negroes a larger representati in the Legislature ; but that hei advise the whites and blacks come to some sort of comprom and understanding which wot put a stop to the race prejudi< that now exist and that cause much trouble at every election. The Committee on Elections la submitted a very elaborate bill the Legislature upon the electi laws of the State. One of its f tures is that it requires every voi to register in his own precinct, a requires of him a fee of fifty cei to pay the expenses of the regist: tion office. If the voter remos from one precinct to another he c get a certificate of registration twenty-five cents, and can file it the precinct into which he movea There is an important amera ment before the Legislature on t insolvent debtor's act. The amer ment proposes to take away frc the insolvent debtor the right give preference among his credito: If adopted this would put thei solvent debtor in the condition an involuntary bankrupt. This is the third week of Gi teau's trial. The trial has no int4 est beyond the fact that the defen ant is the assassin of a Presider Public sentiment seems to ha settled into the belief that he insane.
