* THUagPAY MORNIHOTJAN. 8,1880. ?HS WORK OW ?HB ?JSiSKW. The Legislature which has just ad journed has done many things which ii ought not to have done, and has left p$*l done macy others whleh it ought to haw. attended ti, but, despite these ?hortcori inga, it j>cs done a great desi for which it ic entitled to commendation. To be :'n with, it has kept the length of the sei ir. J within one month, thereby setting an ox ample which the r/eoplcV wise, will insist shall always be followed in the future. ? short session is the only ssfi guard against extravagance and a multi* pliclty of law?, ^ho Legislatur? costs the State about twelve hundred dol?an per day, sud it ls decided economy to bave tho session reduced to the lowest figure at which the business can be at tended to. Wo have too much legisla* tion, and nothing is BO fruitful of it a long sessions. The real interests of tb State will be promoted by only making such changes in the law t* may be shown to be net^ssary, and not geing into the theoretical legislation which long sessions are likely to.entail. With short sessions once firmly established, the membere will hereafter prepare such bills as are im* portant be tore the meeting, and present them promptly, whereby their considera tion will be assured, and all the necessi ties of the country, amply met. Tbs Legislature bas taken this step in the /ight direction. Another good measure, for the passage of which the Legislature deserves credit, is tho "Act to provent tho intcrmsrrying of races," which is necessary for the pu ?i ty of society and the proper protection of both races. Nearly every State in the Union, North, South and Weat, has euch a law, and on? Legislature bas done well in passing it. O?pt. Massey, of York, ls entitled to tho credit of introducing the measure in the House. . The Acc.to prevent railroads from run* ning or loading freight trains oh Sunday was passed is such shape as to prohibit the loading bf freight trains on Sunday or the running of any trains except those carrying passengers, tho mails and ex pfew.

It will, no doubt, be* como a part of tho Constitution, and then all trouble about the unfair diaOuc tiou, which is made by tho present law, will bo remedied. There wera several Joint Resolutions introduced to accom plish this purpose, and tho Judiciary Committee of the House reported a sub stituto for them, and finally they were all tabled. Tho Sonato resolution wes taken up and greatly amended, and in that shape> it passed so os to allow the < qually to every class of our citizens. The Act to require railroads to furnish consignees an itemized statement of freight chanca over the di it?rent roads upon which freight has been brought, and requiring th tm to settle their bills according to tho contract as set forth ia the bill of lading, hos become a law, and now persons receiving .freights are enti tled to a fall statement of tho charges on each road, oo that erro? and discrimina tions may bo detected. Tho Act also re quires railroads to celtic their charges ac cording to the contract BS ?et forth in the bill of lading, which, in effect, requires the railroads to adjust overcharges among s?emae?vi^ii^ihjent liiooaV???Issc???S tbs consignes by - requiring him to pay the Overcharge and trust to having It refund ed to him in the future Thia, of course, only applies to ewes where the rate of freight ia expressed in the bill of lading, bat it .

Considerable commotion has been cre sted ia rome quarters by the discovery that tbe Supply Bill w?\s incorrectly an rolled, and so ratified and approved, con taining tho Senate's amendments to tbe House bill, which were as follows: First, State tax, 4| mills, instead of ?ij mills; second, no tax to pay back indebtedness of Marion County, and third, $8,000 for tho fourth Brigs le of Charleston. These first and third amendments were, on mo tion of Mr. Murray, not agreed to, and the second wai, on motion of Mr. Moody, not agreed to. In this shape a confer ence Comrjittee on the part of the two Houses was appointed, cousistiog of Messrs. John B. Cleveland, T. C. Moody and W. C. Brown on part of the House, and two Senator*1, who agreed to recede from the Senate amendments, and the report of tuic committee was adopted by both Houses, so that tbe amendments ?ere stricken out. The bill was then, itv the Senate, ordered to be changed to an Act and enrolled for ratification. This was done, and the Committee on Enrolled Acts reported't properly enrolled and ready for ratifiai *v upon which the President of the Senate and Speaker of the House, in accordance with the rules, rat! Qed the the Act. I*, was then presented to the Governor and approved by bim, two days after which it was discovered the Bill had been ratified and approved in a dif* fcro form from that in which it was passed. This presents the question as to whether the Act is valid or not, inas much as it is not approved in the shape in which it passed. Those who contend for its validity claim that it is essenti ally the Bill as passed, and that tho evi dences of its genuine ?to being its ratifi cation and approval are such as to give it validity," although irregularities have attended its enrollment, while those who contend against it claim that it is no Act st all, inasmuch as it did not paos the Legislature in tho way that it was ratified and approved. The question bas not been discussed at very great length in sny of the papers, except tho Register, which desires an extra session of the Legislature to correct thc error. This will hardly be called, however, for the cost of bringing the Legislature together would amount ?* nearly as much as the additional tax, and if tho session should lott ten days or. two weeks it would amount to considerably more than the fl 'ditton*! tax. The law will, therefore, g > upon tbe statute books and hp enforc ed in its erroneous form,' for it is cheaper to do this than to assemble the Legisla ture to correct it. ?.THE AIKEN IDEA." The position of Hon. D. Wyatt Aiken, our immediate Representative in Con gress, has been quite a surprise, and the subject of very general discussion among his constituents. Col. Aiken has never bad much love for the Northorn Democ racy, but wo bad supposed he recognized the necessity for a close, solid and ag gressive alliance between the Democ - \? of tho whole country, in order to success* fully combat tho cohorts of Republican* hm, which is held together throughout the entire Union by the cohesive power of publio plunder, as it has been aptly termed' Indeed, we presumed that he was a firm and unyielding Democrat, devoted to tho principles of the party, sod are no little puzzled to know just what bis petition in the matter Is. We do not agree with him in thinking that both political parties have outlived their usefulness, for we hold that the Demo cratic party represents truly the genius of our Republican institutions, oed its triumph will not bo a useless one, but will maris thc return of our country to tho nure and patriotic government of our forefathers. We "say bave our preferences as to men in this party; bul its men aro insignificant campnrcd with tho principles of tho party, and it ls this that makes tho partr one that should .-iridium, and ' di-mtiuAd to trluE?pb i! c-u!'

Aiken untimely and unfortu nate. They tend to weaken the Nations! Democratic party aa for as they hate any i influence, and to produce disaffection ai home. While every aim should bo to bring tho wholo Democracy into compact line, Ure result of the expression of each views as ihosc expressed by Col. Aiken 1? tp discourage, if not to disintegrate, the party. Even if his assumption that both parties have outlived thuir usefulness is correct, which wo dissect from, it does riot help Col. Aiken, for it Is reduced to a choice between these parties anyway. It is impossible now to organizo a now nar ty to run a canvass .this year. ' Such j i thing has never happened, and, it ia , fo to predict, will never happen.New i parties have always ieqnlrod yea** to de* 1 v lop pirene th for maeno*. Tl?*? w-?*? aro, therefore, closely drawn, and there h no room for straggling. Every voter must either support tho Democratic ticket or give o direct or negativo sup port to tho Republicans.

This ir. on the last assessment, which Is considerably below the aseaesament of the year before, and, therefore, the amount raised by the tai this year will probably be equivalent tc what would have been raised by 9 mill? last year. This tax is to be paid in twe installments this year as it was last, witl s penalty of five psr cent, on tho first half if not paid. The Senate committee, with Genera Taft as chairman, appointed at the firs session of the last Legislature to investi gate tho investigating committee, o which Senator Cochin was chairman reported just before the adjournment o the Legislature, completely endorsinj the committee and approving of its work It seems that there was a difference be tween Taft and Mr. Cochran, which le? tho former to desire to catch tho latter ii some irregularity in thr work of the in vestigating committee. In order to di this he bad a committee appointed t overlook the accounts end work of tba committee. It seems that a larg amount of the testimony was copied ii tho bond-writing of-a member of Mi Cochran's family, and Mr. Taft cap?ete to show that large sums of money ba been paid for this work, while the testi mony and vouchers showed that it ha been done gratuitous'/, and that th State actually owed M- Cochran a bal ance on the compensaron provided fe tho committee. The report of tho com roittee was adopted by the Senate, an thus the investigating committee he been vindicated and Mr. Taft Completel foiled in bis expectation of involving Mi Cochran. In our editorial correspondence fror .Columbia, under date o' December 23, w did Spoakcr Shepna.d an injustice i saying that he had violated every partit mcntnry rule in appointing a committe of conference on the Appropriation Bi who were not in accord with the Hons in refusing to agree to tho Senate am?ne menta increasing the appropriations b some thirty-five thousand dollars. Th committee consisted of Messrs. Jobi stone, Simonton and Aldrich, and whe tho conference met .ho Honso committe agreed substantially to every amendmer made by tho Sonate. Whoa the repoi came in, Mr. Sheppard stated that h bad been informed that ho bad appointe a conference committoo which was cot i sympathy with the action of the HOUB< upon which each member of tho comrai tete ct it'id that he had voted against som Ono or more of tho Senate amendment which placed them all ia affinity wit the action of tho House, and gave to th Speaker the right to appoint them o this committee without violating the r< quiroment? cf parliamentary law. Th selection of the committee was, howeve generally considered by the advocates < reducing the Appropriation Bill as ni fortunate, and as equivalent to yieidit the position of tbo House, as tho gentl men on the committee had tbrcugboi the whole session, with the occasion exception of Mr. Aldrich, voted for tl larger appropriations. The result we therefore, fully predicted and expect? as uoou as the committee was announce It was an unfortunate selection for tho who were Becking tu cut down the appi priatione, but there was nothing in it reflect either upon the Speaker or t gentlemen appointed, aud we make tl correction in justice to all of the part' concerned. Our contemporary, the Columbia HCQ ter, appears to us to be devoting n gn deal of valuable time and space to ce detuning the ah>:;t scsaiou of tho Leu latino, and aa if td clinch its objectif, it urges that tho errors in the Supply I are the result of the short session.

Tbs followk^ article from tho New York Sun deserves unqualified comdem nation, for lt~>s both insolent to the South and without justification in the facts. If the Sun is only as true to Democracy as the South is t?tere will bo no complaint as to its course. This paper, however, seems to take pleasure in abusing the South sod our people whenever opportu nity affords, and bas done the Democrat ic party and tho country as much harm as sny psper I. *he country by its per sistent abuso and misrepresentation. The article given below is a fair sample of the fabrications which emanate from its columba: Mr. D)n Cameron was made Chairman of the Republican National Committee, not only because be is bold, rich aaa powerful, bat because he is personally on thc best of terms with many of the South ern leaders. This is remarkable, but it is also true. He wines and dines them, and transports them free to horse races sod other entertainments. Besides, Mr. Cameron is always read/, as hie father was before bim, to grind a little axe for sny of them in a strait ; to get an appointnietv. ^.ade, a contract pro tected, or a railroad pass provided. Thoao who think these relations of no importance may remember how he shouldered into tho Republican Senato Cen. Butler, of P nth Carolina, when all tho organs were denouncing him as the author of tho Hamburg massacre. The conspirators of the third term look forward to a period in their game when they may need Southern support, and in case it should be necessary to count Grant io, and seat bim by force, they want the Confederate long-swords on their side. This is the meaning of the Grant demoostration among the worst of the late rebels. With the existing Administration, with the regular array under Sherman and Sheridan, and tho flower of the Confed erate brigadiers, tbs conspirators think they would bo strong enough to defy the people, North as well as South. The Confederates traded with Hayes, and why should they not trade with Grant? TUE SENTIMENTAL JOURNEY. den. Grant Warmly Welcomed in Bean fort. Special Dispatch to the News and Courier. AUGUSTA, GA., January 1. Ger. Grant and party left hero this morning for Beau foi t nod Savannah. The day was beautiful and the visitors were waited upon by the mayor and councilmen, after which they were cs corted to the Union Depot in carriages by a band of music and the colored mili tary procession which was celebrating the anniversary of the Emancipation proclamation. THE RECEPTION IN BEAUFORT. BEAUFORT, S. C., Jan. 1 Preparations were made this morning hurriedly, when it was heard by a tele ?ram to ex-Congressman Robert Smalls rom Col. Fred. Grar.t, that Gen. Grant and party would visit Beau fort. A committee of citizens was appointed to receive him. as follows: Col. Ellie tt, Col. Verdier, Senator Col lins. Postmaster P. E. Ezekiel, Collector of tho Port Geo. Holmes, G. Waterhouse, M. Pollitzer and G. Gage. An ithmense concourse of citizens of all classes, re Ssrdiess of race, color or previous cou it ion, proceeded to the depot, with bands of music and a copious display of bunt ing and the wildest enthusiasm. Two colored military companies-the Beaufort Light Infantry, Capt. Robert Smalls, and the Sumner Guards, Captain Robinson-were out in full force. The Beaufort Volunteer Artillery, Capt. Stuart, the crack white company, was on the road leading to town with one field piece firing a salute of thirteco ft'ens. Every available vehicle was in "..mira tion for men, women and children to add to tho demonstrations of welcome, Promptly at half-past 3 the specisl train arrived with the'party, consisting of Gen.

Arriving at tho botch Intendant Wil liams extended the hospitalities of the townson the part of the committee, in a short speech. Gen. Grant responded as follows: "It affords me great plcieuro to be al lowed tho opportunity to visit Beaufort, though only for au hour. This locality occupies a conspicuous place in h?6tory. For the last twenty years it certainly has. The best qualities of the newly emanci pated race developed here. I thank yon ?Cr yu?r ii??p???uj? and warm welcome" This is said to bo the longest speech that Goa. Grant bas made sines he left Richmond. Commodore Fattor-on and tho officcrn of the fleet stationed here paid their respects in full uniform. Tho ladies of th? party were called upon by the ladies of tho community. Gen. Grant, Fred Grant and ^aeridao were introduced to the gentlemen. Returning to tho depot, Col. Elliott and Commodore Patterson rode in the carriage with Gen. and Mrs. Grant, Col.

Mackey Interview*'.fha Sphjns. > COLUMBIA, January 1.-Judge Mack i Oy/ who bas como' here to open court, . travelled from Chester to thia city yesier day in company with Gen. Grant, and * gives some interesting details of his con y venation with him, and of incident? on . the road. He states that there were j crowds St all the depots along the route, . composed of both whites and blacks, r ' seeming chiefly to bc attracted, by oe? . riosity. Some little embusteara wss ? shown, and occtslosalhr ;hero was slight i cheering. Grant said that ho discovered W diOeretice in his reception in the * South from what, it was at the North, ) and expressed. gratification at the wei s come bo had received, and *,he gaat>ral I spirit manifested. He said, however, .that bc attached no-political ?gulfltanco . to the domonrtrations of thl? ac?tico, but attributed them iO tho kindly'hospitalier cf the oeopla. He asked uata tito cond, tioa of thc negroes, and expressed bia conviction that they did not ???ero op pressed, estimating tue degree of their prosperity^ al the suggestion of the Judge, in proportion lo Ibo brotdnessof the grins $r> 'he train poised. Ho abo remarked on the evident amiable relations between mingling and.good-natured rough and tumble Jostling In the crowds about tho : railroad stations in purding towards tbe j inila. He expressed coubidsrable sur prise at seeing so much equality in ex? tstence. He said that all the indications be had seen pointed to a reunited coun try and the fading away of sectional feel ings. He set mea to be coo vi need that the Southern people are principally de voting themselves to tho development of j their own internal resources. At Colum bia he remarked that he was the only living ex-president, and the Judge re marked thst he might not bear that title Et year from now. tien. Grant said that a year from now Mr. Haves would be ititi President, and Judge Mackey said: "Well, a year and a few months, may be." Justice Willard remarked that Judge Mackey was playing on the words "ex and "next" President, and Grant laid bo understood, aud seems to have il?ut up immediately and permanently. Girant pointed to a blackened chimney aa be entered the city and said. "There's me of Sherman's monuments." He teems to have talked at some length re garding the incidents of the war, speak ing particularly of his interposition to prevent the threatened arrest and prosecu tion of all Confederate Generals, of .the butnane treatment of Lee's army at Ap pomattox, and in prevenliug the des truction of private property by his array tn Virginia. Gen. Grant asked if the Democratic party was not divided in this State, and tho Judge says that be gave him very emphatic assurances to the contrary. He alco , developed an interest on the subject of tissue balloU and said that Hampton's denunciation of them was a bold step and gratified him, and was a virtual admission of th<dr use. It being stated that the necessity for them existed occasionally for the preservation of civil isation ho remarked, rather jocularly, that he hoped that the necessity wouldn't irise too frequently.
