Congress Is quarreling over thc tenure of offico Act This Act, it will bc remembered was intcn dod to checkmate President Johnson in hil raid on incompetent, dishonest radical offici holders. Now that the radicals have a prcsi dent of their own ilk, they desire to give bin full sway. Grant thinks he eant run thc ma chino properly unless ho is armed with fnl power to appoint and remove officials ad Itbx tum. Tho House is favorable to a repeal o the obnoxious law but the Senate is unwillinj to forego all power in the disposal of the fa offices of tho Government and propose a sub (dilute, which while it gives tho President wider discretion yet still retains in the Sec ate considerable power in tho matter of nj pointment and removal. Freshet. On tho night of tho 25th instant a hcav fall of rain occurred in this section. Th clouds seemed to empty themselves on tb earth. Our water courses were higher tho thoy have been known to be for several yeal past. All thc low-grounds on thc brauche crocks aud rivors were overflowed, and i many instances badly washed. Fences we swept away, and a great deal of injury and d loy to our farmers effected. Wc have n hoard how many or whether any bridges wc destroyed, but hope nono have been wash< away. Tho weather is now clear and wari Free Schools Tho Bill to pr?vido a system of pub sohools for the Stato failed to pass thc Leg iaturo. A joint resolution was adopted t thorning thc Treasurer to pay over to t treasurers of thc various Counties of thc ot their pro rata share of 825,000 appropraii by General CANHY for tho support of f Schools, to bc distributed by them among various teacher.! of their respectivo count!

Piokens. Tho town of Pickcns is located on a rh running cast and west. Thc eastern cxtt . ?ty spreads out like n fan, affording beau! sites for building. Tho town is now in swaddling clothes of infancy, but tho nun of houses, which havo been erected in short space of six months, bespeak for it i turo of growth and prosperity. Airead boasts of two flourishing Storos, two tom to Bacchus, and two houses for tho enter mont of the inner man, besides a mimbi private dwelling houses.

This clo_ ses tho courts of tho Eight Circuit. Judg0 ORR has won golden opinions every whoref both from tho Bar and tho pcoplo. Tho Griminal docket was unusually small, furnish, ing but four true Bills, only ono of which was tried. This was a case of a young man oharged with stealing a ten dollar Bill on tho Lancaster National Bank of Pennsylvania. Thc accused was found guilty and sentenced to five months imprisonment in tho County jail. Boforo passing sentence, his Honor sta ted that tho prisoner was tho first whito man who had been brought boforo him for sentenco for larceny during a poriod of seven weoks spent on his circuit. This speak volumes for tho virtuo and morality of our people, and demonstrates their law abiding character, it must bc boruo in mind, that these four cases are tho acoummulation of twelvemonths, du ring which wo had uo law or courts. Thc Civil Docket comprised a good many cases, which were soon disposed of under tho mutu al benefit system of our juries. They com mitted themselves in thc outset to tho system of scaling, and in no instance gave a vcrdiot for moro thau fifty per cent, on debts con tracted prior to and during tho revolution. Ex-Gov. PERRY made a powerful effort to stem tho current, painting to the minds of the jury, perjury, agrarianism and gcucral de moralization as thc terminus of such a course? but all to no effect. After a few verdicts from each Jury, thc question resolved itself into a more mathematical calculation of coun ting tho interest and diy^flflfrby two to find tho true verdict. "1.

Thoro is no effort to lav ish praiso simply beoauso tho opportunity is offered, and thoir condemnation of othors is oxprcssed torscly aud forcibly, without giviug way to unacoinly language In a word, they discharged tho duties imposed upon them by law, " without fear, favor or affection." Tho exam plo is worthy of emulation, aud ss wo nre begiuuing a now era in tho history of our State, amid many difficulties and trials, wc trust thoro will always bo found a disposition to thoroughly vindicato tho law and thc peo ple, and that these grand inquests will not morely sook to disco/or whom they may praiso, but administer blame wherever de served. lu oonoluding their presentment, tho grand jury congratulates M tho pcoplo of Oconec in having .for their judicial officer the distin guished stateman and jurist who presides in tho Eight Judicial Circuit, and who IUB shown by his prompt dispatoh of business, and his strict but courteous onforcomcut of thc rules of tho Court, that ho is the right man in thc right placo; that thc mantle so honorably worn by Harper, O'Ncall, and thc other great Judges of South Carolina, has fallen upou worthy shoulders." They also take ocoasion to express their opiuion " that the pcoplo of this county will havo no room to regret tho choice which they have made for tho office of Solicitor, and that thc State will suffer no detriment whilo thc enforcement of her laws is entrusted to his caro."
