^.^mGTON LETTEl ^NVASHINGTO.N, D. C., Jan. 17, 187 -The bill ceding certain jurisdiction 'he Slate of Ohio iu regard to the N tioual Asylum for disabled volunte soldiers came up in the Senate yesterda Thc father of the bill, John Sherma should have named it "A bill to che Col. Le?, is J. Campbell out of his se io thc nest Congress, and for other pu poscscs." The other purposes being assist one John Sherman to be return* to thc U. S. Senate on the expiratit of bis present term, jaid-Sherman boil thc chairman of the finance committi and mouth piece of Boutwell, thc ec uomic. Sherman has not sufficiei ability .to be f?t? financial partner of grocery at a cross roads. Judge She; tuan, his colleague, ripped his fradulc device all to pieces. Messrs. Carpem and Williams, radicals, eould not j such a swindle and spoke against it, did Mr. Bayard of Delaware. Tl stench not only cf fraudbut ofmeanne about this bili was too lively for any 01 who has the least fairness to swallo Yet our moral and "loil'' radic?is ha gorged themselves on worse than th There seems to be, from thc deba in thc Senate yesterday, a prospect o? mote liberal amnesty bill being report? and acted favorably on than at any tin previous. The House Committee w take up the subject and consider M Beck's bill in which the test oath abolished. It is thought that a majot ty of the Judiciary -will oppose tl admission of Senator VaDce, of Non Carolina. Mr. Abbott, at present*, Se ator from that State aod Gov. Yance competitor, claims the seat on tl ground that Gov. Vance was not legal! . elected and that he is entitled to th 6cat. What next ? Thc committee ye tcrday decided to n port in favor Messrs. Miller ?iud Hill as the regular elected Senators from Georgia. Th will be the signal for Morton and b followers to belch forth another tirac of abuse OD the committee who repor the Senators elect, the Democracy an thc South especially. The galleries wi bc filled to hear the wrangle, which wi be principally among thc Radical Sen tors, with an occasional piece of kindlio thrown OD the fire by the Democrat; Senators, to keep the blaze go?Dg. It i rather amusing to see the cquanimit with which the Democrats sit aod liste to the speeches of thc Radicals wh differ as tc what policy should he pui sued towards ;hc South, there bein some Radical Senators who have take alarm at the recent changes going o iu the North ?ind West, and begio t fear the consequences which thc Easter and carpet Lag Senators do not. Army officers who have been droppei from the tolls ire making application for positions in the Iutcrual Revcom Bureau. The pressure on the Commissioner i: very great, there being quite a numbc of officers recently mustered out. Gen Pleasanter, no doubt, will try and ac commodate as roany as possible as he :: uow runuing the Bureau on a militar] pian, taking thc white Ilou^e as hi model. The interview between the National Union League association and his Jligr, Mightiness the oilier day was thc op? portunity to strike terror to the heart? of all disorganizes, and especially Gov cruor Geary d' Pennsylvania, who was the spokesman of the occasion, and . ?rant did not foi set to improve the opportunity. }.t will be remembered that (?eary iu his ennua) message took the President severely to task for violating the rights of the States by sending troops to that State, and in fact spoke like what he once wa;-a Democrat - 'jrant in repleto his address said, "It was import?t): that the I'uion party should bc preserved to continue its great work, without division or dissension, and xhateter tended to hinder that work would find in linn an open and tteotctd enemy." This was intended for Governor Ge; ry. as has since been more than intimated by the Republican of this city. Here is a threat plain as can be and the reference t>i "rm open, and azoved enemy" simply means that Geary while claiming to bc a Radical bas been tin enemy in arraigning Grant for send? ing troops into Pennsylvania. Governor Palmer, ol Ii linois, who in his late message has also road a lesson to the Radical parly ir. Congress about their infringing on the rights of the States by their proposed air lines and Federal eonor?rioos IDJ who suggests au amend? ment to thc constitution to restrain them in their assumption of such powers, : may take a lesson from the late of. Geary who has been old wh it he may : expect from an incensed executive. Of course Carl Schurz & (je:, cannot rx- ' peet anything at the hand? of Grant: aft. r his threat. Ido not know that! Grant realizes his po-i ion and that of his party, but if he had the slightest modicum of that quality-common sense. -which he was said to have in such ; abundance, lie would know that there is no hope for him. or possibly he does see it and is determined at all hazards j to bc his own successor let it cost what it may, aetir.g out Loni* the 14?b motto : '.Atter mc fhe deluse " A delegarion of the Virginia Legisla ' tore waited on th? President" yesterday : ?i:d stated that nolens there was more executive oaf ronnoc* distributed in Virginia to enable the Radical?, to over- , come the great change in sentiment now going on, ard a change of office holdem,' tba State* of Virginia and West Vir- ' ginia will assureRv co against the' Administration. The President said he would do aa tlwry ?*:rg-*te<l. The dele- ' cation fror? Mary hind who came te^ pour oaf thefraorrows to Grant went bick with tbs an-nrancs that ha would mr* consolidate the internal revenue; distriet* in that Stat*?. Poatina** r General Orr*well baa hoco? poeo???d Grant into th? idea that ha will earnr Maryland next time and to ?wore bl? j I laca for thc pre-war. THE WATCHMAN WEDNESPAY? JAW'RY 25. A. A. GILBERT.EDITOR Tlie Sumter Watchman has by far the largest circulation {espe? cially in the surrounding country) of any paper published in Sumter, and was established in 1850. THE FOREIGN WAR. German successes* continue. Despe? rate but unsuccessful French Sorties continue. Bourbaki and the army of the North have been defeated. Peace overtures have been again made and failed, and the bombardment of Paris will be continued with terrific force Citizens are killed daily in Paris bj it. THE SPECIAL 31 ESS AGE OP GOV? ERNOR SCOTT. We took occasion, in our last issue, to allude to the troubles of the up country, and to account ior their ex? istence there, as well as elsewhere, in the absence of equality and impartiality in the administration of the State gov? ernment-the arming of the blacks and refusal to arm tile whites, being a prominent and representative feature. That position we regard as well taken, and a true analysis of the situation. Under it, the whites felt that the only protection to person and property held by them, lay in the inherent an J re? served powers given by God-the power and right to defend themselves, wheo the defending arm of the law was no longer available. Under it, notwith? standing the difficulties were mainly persona], and isolated, and not pat ti ci pated in by any community or county, as such, and in many instances, it may be, under other circumstances, unworthy of notice, it cannot be denied that those difficulties touched a chord that vibrated through every tissue and artery of the great heart ol the people. And in this condition, just and well grounded fears were entertained of wide-spread trou? ble at any moment; for whilst the voice and influence of the bette* classes was conservative and restraining, none could tell when matters might culminate and reach that point at which conservatism would be dastardly, and when thc arms of the best and most peaceable citizens must be lifted to strike, and to strike vigorously. That there have not been more aod greater difficulties-that more blood has not been shed, and a larger number of the usurpers and disturbers beca made to bite the dust, has been the result entirely of the patience and endurance of the whites-the exhibition of a virtuous, well poised self control and sacrifice that rises sublimely iu the scale of moral heroism-the legitimate coun terpart of their valorous record of the war. From the message which Governor ?COTT wot to the Legislature on the 15th, and which is republished in another part of this paper, it soems that he at least is determined, as far as the powers and influence of his official position extend, to remove the difficul ty, by the inauguration of a just and impartial policy. We hail it as the first decided note of peace that we have heard from his administration, and as the augury of a better state of affairs in our distracted country. We believe that it will accomplish more toward pu ting an end to the disturbances in the State, than would a military camp tn every township. Governor -"corr takes greund against thc employment of the militia and martial law, or any military power, as a remedy for the disturbances that exist, and assumes that the civil power is syf ficieot for the protection of thc life, liberty and property of thc citizens of the ?tate. In this he wiil^bc seconded by thc whule mass rf thc better class of thc people. It is the idea that the colored race, marshalled as armed mili tic, would be used against the whites, that has produced irritation, and acts of lawlessoess, incendiarism, violence and blood all over the State. Let it be un dcrstood that thc civil law is to be executed io its justice, and surely exe? cuted, and that beyond this there is to bc no interference or protection for evil doers, and trie better sense of the peo? ple is assured, and our troubles cease. ? Governor SCOTT takes the ground igain that there are no disturbances in he State that warrant thc calling out of :he militia-that he will not venture, is Executive of the State, to pronounce tty ot the ?nanties riotous and refracto ' ry-t?at there is nothing like county < tr^anization to defy the law, but if j, herc was to such an extent as to disarm 1J he power of the civil courts, he has no \ich militia forceas would Seco m pct eut 0 suppress them, and if he had, he has JO mea'is to place and support auch a 1 "urce io the field. This is simply the i r rh, and the telling of it by Gove rnor SCOTT cannot fail in having a good , ?ffect-in tending to dissipate any j lecessity which might arise for the use )f an armed force. * If Governor SCOTT will but follow up ?tri* message by disbanding the militia j 1 id withdrawing the arm be has pheed m their hoads, th? work of establishing j peace witt hare beeo seeomplUhed.- j The eonstaut mastering of armad negro militia, in a tine of peace, and when ne raeeesity for it exists, ?ot ooh/ aecea* j; lishe* be good, but is a eon*tatt caws? f f rritatio*. . "D-E-A-D-DB UN K t? As the through train on the South Carolina Rani Road neared Augusta bj some twenty miles, on Thursday even? ing last, the engineer discovered a man, apparently sitting on the track with head and Jbody in a drooping or bending po? sition, when it was too late to avoid running over him. As soon as the train cou.d be stopped, the kind-hearted con? ductor, lantern in band, and accompa? nied by seveial others, hastened to the spot where the unfortunate man was seen. He was soon discovered, lying on the side of the track, several voices, as they approached quite near, asking and repeating, in anxious tones, "Is he dead?" "Is he dead ?" The body now moves, the head lifts itself slowly, and these words, in a tone strikingly and peculiarly significant of their character, are heard: "Dead drunk !" Anxious faces at once put on expressions of meri mcnt, and the neighboring pine thioket soon rings w?h shouts. Tho man was udead drunk," and hac just enough life and humor left in him to make declara ration cf the fact, in response to the anxious inquiries he heard. But what was most extraordinary, the cow-catcher bad actually knocked him off the track without inflicting serious injury, or ap pareotlv restoring consciousness suffi iently to bricg to him knowledge of thc fearful danger through which he had passed. "A HEARTY OLD VIRGINIA WEL> COME.? This is no myth, as it appears in con? nexion with the card of HEWITT'S C1 obe Hotel o n another column. Capt. W. C. DEWITT, the Proprietor, is a na? tive Virginia gentlemen, with the high er and better instincts of the men of that State, and thc warm and accom? plished hospitality which is also charac? teristic of them. We vouch for the troth of the asser? tion that "a hearty Old Virginia Wei come awaits" all who register at the ti lobe. PUZZLE SOLVED. MAYESVILLE, S. C., Jan. 18, 1871.
