Section 32 of oar State - Constitution related lo tbe Homestead IU last sentence road? aa follows : "It . ?ball bo tbe doty of tbe General Assembly, nt tbeir first session, to enforce tbe provisions of this section by ./agitable legislation." "At their first session,"' tbe special session of 1868, the General Assembly did pass "un act to \ ' etermineand perpetuate the homestead.' Section 4 of tats aet relates to the limi- j talien of this homestead estate. The limitation is, of course, of msjor impor tance than tbe details of appraisement, setting off Ao., whicb are prorided for in other seetions of tbe a?t. As to the limitation, tke words are as follows: "The estate. or right of homestead of tbe head of any family, existing at his death, shall continue for the benefit of hif widow and minor children, and be hold' and enjoyed by them until the youngest child is twenty-one years of ago,* and until the marriage er death of tho widow, nad bo limited to that period/' Here wo have the homestead estate limited to a life estate, with remainder over to the creditors of the head "'of the family. Now wss this limitation according to the Intent of tho Constitution ? "Tho family homsstead <*ee*e?o*> (hall be exempt from attachment, levy or tale on any meauo or final process iseaed from any court" are tho words of tho Constitution. Was tho family homestead th-.s exempted by the aet of 1868 ? Was not the homestead actually or virtually levied upon under the judgment of the creditor, aad a Ben given to said eredi tear, with only the delay of the execution uottl the majority of tho youngest child ox the marriage or the death of the widow 7 Certainly this was the case. The judgement creditor already owned the homestead of his debtor, held his estate \u expectancy, and frequently sold this his property in futuro. This view seems to have been taken by the General Assembly. Not only "at their first tossion" but at every session the Legislature has touched up en this subject. . In the Aet of March 13, 1872 it is provided, "that tho homestead, when assigned as herein prescribed shall vest in tho heads of tho family ta fee simple, aud be freed front all debts and liabili ties whatever so long as he or she shall remain resident in this State and no longer." Hero wo have strong terms expressive of permanent exemption. But even hero there is a condition, "so long as he or she shall remain resident As., and no longer." If "he or she" left.tho Stata what then ? Why back to tho creditors tho estate would revert. Instead) of tho Constitutional exemp tion,, freeing this, amount of property from all peases of law by which the creditor could over rasch it, tho debtor had only a tee- conditieoaL This set also has a provision by whieh l!ie head of tho family may sell his homestead) upon eopdiiion that he buys another homestead in tftis State with, the presesds of its sale. This is bases- upon, the kindred reason of the preeediog eonditioa. "Tho Stats has a right to pretest herself front pauperism." Salui populi tuprema lex. Bat tho vary penslty for net purchas ing soother homestead in this State with ths preeosde of the sals of tbs first, (whieh are to he deposited witb the Sheriff,) shows thst tbs creditor's right is allowed sad thst "process issued from a court" oaa roach tho property wbioh tho Coast i tat ion says shall bs "exempt from saw process, do." The penalty is that "ths Sheriff shall apply ths money so depeeited to the pay ?est of the debts dos fnsm the de positor if any there be." At tho last session the Genorsb Ac sewbly retouched the matter andi mads a step farther towards mating ths sr. emptioa permanent and complete. The Aet of Feb. 22, 1873, Saction 2, says: "after tho proceedings have become (ii.al, the title to lite brimv'fsd so set off* and assigned, shall be forever discharged from kl! Alb** of said debtor thou exist ing or thereafter contracted. Section 4. says, "the homestead so exempted shall be subject to parti tiou among all tbe children of tbe head of the family in like manner as if no debts existed." Here we hare so unconditional exemp tiou and security ? of tbo homestead to the debtor 'as if na debts existed." This is what tho Constitution intend ed. This qusrtion as to limitation of the homestead estate and tho quality and uatave of the exemption is, as said, the mort important one in ths law. Th-n uro other questions as to who is the "head ot a family" and what is the "home stead" &c, which hare been settled by tbe Courts. The abore is a harried and cursory tracing of the progross of the general assembly in hitting aud carrying out the spirit of the Couatitutioo in this all important matter. The Massacre or 4* en. Can by. A great many people in South Caro lina hare read the announcement of the killing of Gen. Edward 11. S. Caobj with no feeling of regret. Tbe reason for this is the pavsonal or sectional an tipathy for the victim. This however cannot affect the character er effect of the deed, whose announcement will send a thrill along I be currcul communica tion of civilized life. A notional re ret I attends the event of the shucking death of Get). Cauby who was a di-tinguished officer of the United Ststes army And out ol this regret comes the enquiry in to the manner of his murder and the judgement of eoodootuation upon his murderers. The policy of the United States government towards the barbarian Indians who remain untamed by the influenae of civilization which has been gradually suriounding aud embracing theto, baa been one of mistaken kind ness. Harsh discipline and severe sys tem wa and is needed la the treat ment of savages all unamenable to civilization, natural aud eternal cue.u'ns tothc wVite race ?sd treacherous beyond all compare. Forced, bunt and tamed iuio submission, (he Indian should have been taught.by severe lessons to respect the power of the government be fore it was essayed to ru-ake Iben? grnte ful for its kindness.

Tbe autoch thones of this rich soil, they have been an I continue te be its canker-worm, gradually being.extirpated but wonder ful in the tenacity of its deadly virus. The) romance of the ludien'a fate may bs an exhaustlcss theme for poesy and rhetoric, but for the practical purposes of government in the discharge of its duty of advancing and protecting tbe out p'-sts snd frontier of settlement and population, a. business rule of whole, some dreipline must be established aud vigorously maintaiuud.

[Special Tel tgram to Columbia Her old.] San Francisco, April 13. The following ars the latest particu lars received frona the Modoo country, giving the details of the interview be tween tbe peaea commissioners and the Modoo Indians, resulting la tbe brutal aud cowardly massacre of General Canby and Rev. Dr. Thomas. For several days previous to the fatal interview, tbe poaee commissioners had been anxious for a talk with Captain Jack and the loading chiefs of the Medoe band. Prospects of peace seemed better, aa the peace com missioners had received orders from Washington to give the Iudiaos, if they thought it advisable, a reservation in tbe vicinity of the lava beds. On Thursday evening, Bogus Charley oame into the camp at the lava beds with the i.if rmatiou that Captain Jack, Sohooohia aud three or four ethers would meet the peace commissioners on a spot near the lake, about three quartsrs of a mile from camp. He remained in oamp all night and was joined Friday morning by Bos ton Charley, who stated that Captain Jack was coming out to meet the com missioners. Between 10 and 11 o'clock Friday morning a party consisting of General Canby, A. B. Moacbans, Dr Thomas, Mr. Dyar, Riddle the interpre ter, and squaw accompanied by tbe two Modocs, weut out to meet the chief. They were met by Captain Jack, John j Scbocbin, Black Jim, Shack Nasty Jin , Ellin's Man aud Hawker Jim. . Bach had a pistol at his belt but earried no gun. They sat in a kind of broken circle, Canby. Meacham and Thomas together faced by Captain Jaek ald Schoncbio. Dyar atood by Jack, hold ing his horse, with Hawker Jim aad Sbsek Nasty Jim to the left. Meacham made the first speech, giving a long his tory of what lbs commissioners wan'.e ' ? do for lbs Indians, and was followed by Canby and 1 homas, each iu turn speak ing for some time. Csptain Jack ap peared vary serious, and talked for some time. When be finished spsikin.^, he retired to tbe rear near where Meacham s horse was bitched. Sch<muhin then began a speech, and had hardly eora saeaced when Dyar beard a cap miss fire aud, looking round, auw Captain Jack te bis left with a pistol poiuted at Gene* ral Canby. This waa tbe signal f?r a general massacre, and a dosen ehots were Seed inside of half a minute Dyar, after he*.ring ths cap miss fire, turned and fled followed closely by Hawker Jim, who fired two shots al him. Dyai ran, still pursued by the Indiaa, but finding himself too closely pressed drew his Derringer, whereupon Hawker Mira retreated. Dyar then returned to camp Captain Jaek fired at Canby, who ran off to the left, but was speedily shot down and killed instantly. Meacham waa shot at by Schonehin and wounded in the head. He tried'to- draw his Der ringer, wbsn two Indians ran up and knocked him down. Dr. Thomas waa almost instantly killed receiving two pistol ?bot? im Ilm head, Ridley ran off. The Indians did not fire at bam, but knocked his squaw down. Dyar, Riddle and squ'iw returned safely to camp-. Intelligence of tho massacre was first received in oamp through tbe officer .at lbs signal station, and two batteries under Colonel Miller and Major Trock ! morton, started far th? soene, which was reaohed after 5 minutes march over ths broken rocks. Three Indians ware seen running round the ed/e of the lake on theirwsy bsek to their rooky fastnesses. Meacham was found about a hundred yards wstt of ths place of meeting badly wounded with s pistol shot over ths eye. He was esrried haok to oamp in a feeble condition. Dr. Thomas was found fifty yards further oiu Isis-dead body was lying fscs downward stripped' to tho waiat. Canby's body; lay about oner hnndrod yards to the southward entirely node, with two pistol shots in the head. From Colonel Glien it is learned the Indians hsd also attaeked Colonal Ma son's camp on tho east side of Tule lake, ihf atteel being commenced hi the Indians firiag on Lieutenants Boyle sod Sherwood, who had wondorod a few hundred jardi outaide of the picket linee. Shorwood was shot through the arm and lege, but Boyle escaped injury. Both got aafelj back to camp. The greatest excitement prevails among the troops in camp and the b tterest feeling is manifested toward tho Indians. Romance of Crime. The unhealthy' romance of crime whioh has seemed for toonths to taint tho very atmosphere, aets with most star tliug effect upon the susceptible natures 0^ young men from fifteen years of nge and upward and the infection seams larmiagly on the increase in all tbe large cities of the nation. The career of Foster from the time of his committal of the car-hook murder through all the desperate chances and expedients of the subsequent two years uutil the last sad seen* of sll has proved tho most fruit ful of emulation. Two young men, one in New Hampshire nod another in New York, moved by the morbidly fasoina ting aocouuts of tho execution could not resist .he tempatioo to test the seosa tious of tho "drop," but in both instan ces the arrangements wer* so tearfully correct that tbe youthful experimental i;ts were left dangling in mid air, th< victims of unintentional suicide.?Even ing Bulletin. .
