THE STATE LEGISLATURE [FROM OUR SPECIAL GOURESPOXOEKT.] Col.UHBtt, October 30.?Tho returns received up to the present time, aud nearly all have 'come to band, would indteate that Col. Oiui has bcou elected Governor -of tho State by a very small majority. Gen. Hampton will bo delighted if this bo true. He has been much in jured by the war In his peounlary affairs, nnd ho declin ed to become a candidate for the oinee, because he thought that his own privutc business required bis per sonal supervision. Apart from this, it is said by those who aro best informed, that at the time of his nomina tion Col. Orr toltl him that ho (Col. Orr) would withdrnw if be (Gen. Hampton) was a candidate, and Gon. Hamp ton told bim that ho was not. Under thoso circum stances there is uo mau in tho Stato who will so gladly congratulate Col. Orr n8 the gallant general who con stantly led our brothers to victory, and whose position in tho hearts of his fellow-clt?sons is even higher than will bo tho exalted place that he must occupy in history. All who know anything of his high tone, gentle bearing and chlvalric bravery, whether citizens of the South or of the North, whether lato companions iu arms or for mer foes?all men of every party, will be pleased to know that tho President lias Informed Governor Perry, by tele gram, that the pardon of tho B:iyard of South Carolina will bu granted. Tho two Houses of the General Assembly met to-day at the College?the House of Representatives in the hall of the Clariosophic Society and tho 8enate iu the Lecture Room of Professor LeComte. Your readers ore too familiar with the CoUege and the grounds to require any descriptiou. The room In which the House meets is a little too Binall, and for a little while to-day your corres pondent feared that ho would be obliged to remain standing. The kindness of Mr. Boatright, the Messen ger, found him a table and chair, and relieved him from the necessity of watching and noting the proceedings in an upright position. Business lias at last really bogun, and from present appearances it is likely to continue for some time to come. Some ?if the members dev ire to adjourn after the elections uutil the regular session, but their number is becoming every day smullor and smallor. Many desire to go down to Charleston, but, as I wrote to you before, to do this would require n. two-thirds vote, which it wiU be impossible to get, and which, if gotten, would require all of the offices to be moved to Charleston ; as the only way in which the Legislature could at prcsont constitu tionally go there would bo by making that city the seat of govorninout. This interpretation of the Constitution may not be correct, but it is tho one which seems so to your correspondent. The majority of tho members at present scorn determined to ?nish all work on band be fore adjourning, and work enough will be found to keep them for some weeks, if they urc disposed to wait so long. In tho Senate, to-day, Mr. Hcncrcy offered a resolution to provide for the recovery of the Free Schools of Charleston, which have been seized by the United ?States Officers as abandoned lands, for tho purpose of recom mencing our system of free school education. The Senate scut a message to tho House, informing it of a resolution to refer to tho Solicitor, to inquire in ~to the legal right of the South Carolina Railroad to de stroy the Onmden Branch, and to instruct him to take such measures as may be necessary to protect the rights aud interests of the public. As a similar resolution bad been already referred by tho House to tho Committee on Railroads, this resolution was referred to the same Committee.. Col. Wagoner, the able Chairman of our delegation, ?;avo notice in the House of his intention to introduce, on o-morrow, a bill to encourago emigration from Europe. No man, in either house, Is better able than Is Col. Wag encr, to prepare such a oil. The subject of emigration bas already been considered by him, and ho is tho fa ther of the flourishing German settlement in Piekous district. The subject is one of deep interest to this State, as much of her future prosperity may depend on a large influx of honest, hard-working sober farmers and artisans from tho over-crowded population of Europe. Mr. Milligan, another of our representatives, intro duced resolutions to refer to the Committee on the Judi ciary, to inquiro and report on the propriety of exempt ing from execution a homestead and the tools of me chanics and artisans; which resolution waa referred. He also introduced a resolution to inquire into the expediency of adjourning on Saturday, and of meeting in Charleston at the first regular session. The House refused to take up this resolution, and it was ordered for consid?ration to-morrow. Ho was followed by Major Barker, who gave notice of his intention to Introduce a bill to abolish the usury laws, and also a bill to abolish impurlances; after which Mr. Simonton offered a resolution to appoint an editor for Petigrn'8 Code. Mr. Lettner then offered resolutions that a commit tee be required to report what means can be adopted to restoro the arms and ammunition in tho hands of the free negroes to the proper authorities, and to punish persona hereafter selling them arms. The only othor matters of importance which took place to-day In cither House were?notice 1; Mr. Talloy, of intention to Introduce a bill to amend the law in rela tion to test?no?y; resolutions by Mr. Bfrhardson, to inquire into the condition of the records ef those parts of the State invaded by tho enemy; and resolutions by Mr. Lucas?aU offered in the House?to inquire what ac tion it may be noceBsary to take to cause the records of Charleston to bo returned to tho city. With regard to the lost of thoso matters, it may be un known to many of your readers that these records were removed to Colombia earl}* in the war, and that they were opened there by ordor of the Legislature. There tboy remained until the approach of Gen. Sherman, wben they were removed by tho custodian and his as sistant tc York, whero those of them which could be transported by the railroads?nnd fortunately they wero ?loso of actual Importance?are still stored. You are already informed by telegraph of tho result of the eloction for United States Senator. The election of Gov, Perry is tui endorsement, by the Legislature, of his hind and conciliatory course as Provisional Governor. It is "an earnest well-dono" accorded to him for having ailed, creditably to himself, and benefit?ally to the State, the most trying position in which any citizen of South Carolina has ever been placed. The telegraph has also given you the result of the vote for the Senator whoso term is to expire in 1807, Who is to bo elected no one can predict. Your readers will bo informed of the result as soon os a choice is made. . Com i mm a, October 31.? The Legislature scorns to have fully determined to prolong the extra into the re gular eesslon, and for very good reasons, as will bo seen by reference to the debate today with regard to Mr. Millioan'b resolution, to adjourn on Saturday, to moot in Charleston on tho fourth Monday in Novomber. When the resolutions wore taken up, Mr. Davj_inb mado a speech opposing an adjournment on the ground that at this timo it is necessary for us to go on with tho work and secure, or endeavor to secure, our rehabilita' tiou In tho Union. Another reason, he said, is that in the present condition of the negroes, it is necessary for every man to be at homo during the month of Decem ber. Not to be there then will bo dangorous, if not fatal. Tho chango of condition of tho negro in January oauses sorlous apprehension, and tho chango will begin In Docomber. Tho blUs boforo tho Honso will tako four or flvo wooks. With regard to tho second part of tho resolution, ho said that Columbia, is the propor place?the Capital of the State?and tho placo at which tho members can moBt easily coinmunicato with tholr constituents Mi-iFa? B?*1k th.at *?otn?.reason for proceeding with work la, that the situation of white and black demands -??. _-*"--_? W_3f3% uu1w"?4 onr relations with each othor. Many of tho ncgroen bollovo that tboy , are subject to no laws but thoso of tho military, and the I * passage of a code of lawa will act bonoflclally on thorn. The resolution of Mr. MUllgan was ordered to Ue on the labio, and tho voto may be fairly regarded as a full sotUomont of tho question of adjournment or no adjourn ment. ^ Tho othor matters of importance, attended to by the Hoiiro of Representatives, were numerous though tho session was not a very lengthy one?occupying only about four hours, including tho time taken up in voting for a United States Souator. Tho result of that vote I have already given you by tolograph. Governor Man ning gained twenty-throo votes on tb-> voto of yeator day; Mr. Campbell gained four votes; Mr. Trcscot lost one vote; Chancellor Dunkin lost all except ono vote; Mr. Boyco lost strength; Govornor Pickons was with drawn, and Governor Bonham substituted In his place. What will bo the result of tho voto of to-morrow, your correspondent docs not pretend to predict. He endeav ors to keep both oyes and ears open, to Bee and to hear; but In tho midst of tho electioneering, button-holing, log-rolling and engineering, ho does not protend to play tho part of prophet. -Tho friands ol Governor Manning arc jubilant, and claim that ho will bo elected on tho first voto of to-morrow; but tho friends of others of the candidates aro not yet despairing, and soino havo oven gone so far as to predict that the seventeen vot?-? of Governor Bonham will finally swell Into the majority of the votes cast. Colonel Wagoner introduced a bill for the promotion of foreign emigration and tho appointment of a Commis sioner. Mr. Sicgling offorcd resolutions to instruct the Com mittee on Privilogos and Eloctions to report a bill to give the election of President aud Vice-President to the people. Mr. Lord offered resolutions to refer to the Committeo on the Judiciary, with instructions to roport as to tho propriety of making parties witnesses In suits. Reso lutions were also offered to Instruct tho Judiciary Com mittee to Inqulro and roport what changes, if any, aro necessary to bo made In the law of evidence caused by the destruction of public records in tho passage of the enemy through the State. A resolution to exempt from taxation property of per sona who had suffered seriously by the war, for two years, was laid on the table. Mr. Talloy introduced a bill to amend the Act of 1838 with regard to wills. Owing to tho changed condition of our relations with the negro, the old road taws of the State will require great modifications, and it is not improbable that any system other than the ono proposed by Mr. Preaa ley to-day would work to tho serious disadvantage of tho State. Ho proposes, in his resolution, to refer to a com mittee to report as to the expediency of*changing the law so as to have the public roads and bridges kept in order by contract. The report of the Committee on Federal Relations, with regard to the negro troops now in the State, merits attention. That committee, through its chairman, Mr. Mu? lins, reports ros?lations instructing the Provisional Governor to reproseul to tho President tho necessity of removing the negro troops from tho State, and thus re move a causo of antagonism between tho blacks and tho whites, and an element of mischief and disaffection among the negroes. Mr. Keitt offered resolutions that the Judiciary Com mittee bo instruct?;?! to inquire into the expediency of preventing any person from hiring a servant unless he or she has a discharge from the former master or the Judge of the District Court, under a penalty of six months' imprisonment and one hundred dollars fine. It was to be suppose?! that the case of tho scat of Gen. Garliugtou would have been allowed to rest, as the House had already ordered a writ of election to fill the vacancy; but tho matter was brought up again to-day, an?! produced - long discussion?Mr. Trcscut having moved to declare the office of Adjutant and Inspector General vat?ut, and that A.C. Gurlington was entitled to a seat in the lions-?. Mr. Trcscot, Mr. Barker, Mr. Simoutou, and Mr. Youmaus participated in the debate The motion of Mr. Trcscot was finally laid on the table. In the Senate to-day tho only matters that specially in terests your readers, arc the introduction of a bill to In corporate tho Elmore Insurance Company, and a resolu tion by Mr. Dozier to appoint an editor of Petigru's Code, similar to the resolution introduced a day or two ago by Mr. Simonton in the House. If tlio reports which have been received arc correct, aud which will be published iu to-morrow's paper, as I um informed, no doubt can any longer existas to the tact that Col. Orr has been elected Governor by a very small majority. No one, even among his political enemies, can doubt that the affairs of tho Stato will be ? ell admin is tercd by the first Govornor elected by the penpolo of South Carolina?himself ono of the people, and identified with their interests, and having filled with honor, to himself aud his State, the highest public positions in the United aud former Confederate States. -< -?<? LETTER FROM NEW YORK. [FROM OOB OWN CORRESPONDENT.] Nkw York, October 27.?I clip from tho N. I*. Trib une of 21st inst., this noble letter from a Southern lady; and, whilst doing so, must express my respect for the course of that paper in publishing it. The Tribune has been most earnest in its raid against what it honestly be lieves to be the sin of slavery, and advocated the war with all its might; but, when victory ivas achieved, it became the advocate for conciliation ; whilst the Herald, which professed to be the greatest friend of the South up to the breaking out of the war, has shown the most hitter hatred and vindictive feeling ever since It was compelled, by the fear of mob violence, to espouse the war party's cry. I will venturo to say that no auch let ter as the subjoined would have found its way to the public ear through the columns of the N. Y. Herald: A SOUTHERN WOMAN TO TUE NORTH. To the Editor of the N. Y. Tribune. ? Sir :?In various Northern and Southern newspapers I have read, with feelings of Ill-suppressed indignation, most pathetic accounts of tho terriblo sufferings and horrid brutalities practiced upon the Union prisoners at AndersonviUe, Ga., and woudored if that wero the only prison in tho broad United States that "could a tale un fold" which would shock outraged humanity. Have any of the keepors of Fort Delaware, Camp Chase, John son's Island, and other baa tiles of the North, been yet tried for cruelties practiced upon Southern soldiers ? Thousands of haggard, emaciated wrecks of humani ty, mado so by starvation and cold ondured uuder their treatment, could testify against them, to say nothing of that "cloud of witnesses" whoso wearied spirits are now enjoying eternal rest, and whoso bodies lie sleeping in a strange land, but whose voices speak evon from their graves. Looking at our returned prisoners, with their long, bony fingers, hollow cheeks, and gaunt, attenuated forma, and listening to the mournful stories of their dungeon life, told In hoarse whispers, broken by hollow coughs, which, with tho bright hectic flush and preter naturally brilliant eye, tell a talo sadder than their words; and finding that no one bad as yet demanded re dress for their wrongs, I could no ?enger keep silent, es pecially as, in those Northern prisons, all that extreme harshness was entirely unnecessary. That the prisoners of AndarsonvlUo suffered, is rea sonable, to suppose, and I expect thoy do look back with horror upon the portion of their life spent there. I do not know that prisons, at best, have ever boon regarded aa very charming places of abode. But whoso fault was it that they suffered at all! The Confederate authori ties? I should think not. Time and timo again did Mr. Davis offer to exobango, and in tho rejection of those offers lay all the blame. What means had tho South of providing for such a largo surplus population? Did not "tho best Governmont the world ever saw" blockade all our porta, proscribe medicines, wines and comforts of all kinds, as contraband? Did not "the best Govern ment tho world over saw" send its armies, worso than any swarm of Egyptian locusts, through our land with flro and sword, destroying everything tho eye could rost upon? And, even if this sunny South had been the per fect El Dorado they seem to Imagino, from their oagor noaa to come in and possess It, and furnished threo erops a year, the fearful ravagos of a General Shorman an?f a Gen. Hunter, which wore on such an extensivo scale as to oxcite evon their own admiration (vide Gen. Sherman's report of his Georgia campaign), would have completely exhausted It. Like tho Pharoahs of old, thoy demanded the samo tale of bricks, yet withheld the straw. More people in this Southern land beside tho prisoners at AndersonvUle sufferod for the want of the luxuri?s and oven the comforts of this Ufe. It was a matter of nocosslty. Then let tho blame rest whore it belongs?on tho Governmont which had the power to rescue Its soldiers from sharing thoeo evils, yot failed to use It Tho idea of implicating Mr. Davis, who, before the war, and since, in ovory enlightened community has oc cupied tho position of a noblo Christian gentleman, with complicity In anything that savored of barbarity, or of accusing him of promoting officers for thou? proficlenoy in starving prisoners, 1b too absurd. That ho was the President ot'an unsuccessful Republic, and Buffers for its failure?though no moro culpablo titan ovory man who voted for him?is simply the fate of war, and no reason why he should bo assailed with tho foulest aspor bIc.ih by every little editor or correspondent, desirous of currying favor -frith tho "powers that bo." True to Yankee nature, nothing can bo done without a sensation?flaming, exaggerated articles must appear in their papers?photographs of their prison Ufo, for which the public la indebted chiefly to the imagination of tho artist?everything is resorted to, to Inflame tho mind of the Northern people to avengo wrongs that never exist* ed; whUe, It would soom, that Just 'no opposite courao should be adopted, If thoy really wish to establish peace and good will betweon tho two feottoaa. In one breath, thoy cry "Peace?, peace, reconstruction and frifnilshlp," and In tho other "Bloodl blood! Avenge hit wrongs. Tho blood of our murdoired meen calla for vengeance." But havo wo no wrongs to avenge'; Arc not Mme rights duo the defeated? That wo failed to establish a separat?? Republic Hooms to bavo boon the will of (tod, ami wo tho peoplo bow with humble submission ax the only courtio loft us. Perhaps tho futuro may show that It is for the boat; but thin it la glvon us to feel now, that all the insults and oppressions of thoso in powor are very grievous to boar. And now that "grim-visaged war has smoothed his wrinkled front." aud justice aud civil law protend to rulo tho land, whore Is the sense or justice of punishing au act committed by ei South ern man in tho service- of what he thou;;'ht was his country, whllo tho same act is jeintii'n-1 and approved In a Federal, simply hrcaitue success has crowned tho armu of tho bettor? Must success cover every crime? Heaven knows wo have had tho worst of this fight In ovcry way I Whllo tho war lusted, v.-o expecte?! ho rights, and certainly received none ; but now th"J'c ts no need to plead "military nocosslly." It ?ce??s \^uic tho ir.o.t abject cowardico to yso thv military t?r".ast ft people who havo shown that thoy possessed at*s .i?t one cle ment of grcatnoss in such a high degree-?that of sub mission to tho Inevitable?. Never havo a proeid people, preserving the semblance o? freedom, been so humil iated. Every characteristic of the South has been swept away. The wealthy Southern planter, tha: beau-Ideal of a gentlemen, where Is ho? Numbered with the things of the past; and wo tvlvc a sad, regretful bow to his shade as it vanishes forever, for ho was a very pleasant institution, If not ?five??*. No more Southern planters ! And you Northern maidens who, for years pai>t at Now port and Saratoga, practiced your fascinating wiles, lei tho hope of spending your wlntors on a Southern plan tation, "woop. weep, and rond yoeir hair," for they never will return. No, no; they are delving In mother earth with their own hands, and with a strong, brave heart, earning tholr bread by the swoat of their brow. Tho delicate and tenderly nurtured Southern lady, where do you find her? Dabbling her Hoft. white hands, In the wash-tub, or browning her fair face over a rooking stovo. Thin, at loaHt, es one- connotation to the heart of many a Northern woman, that wo el? our owu chord) now. And must all thoso sufferings go for nothing?loss of property, Iobs of honor, loss of every thing dear to tho hoart? Are fresh sacrilice.-i demanded every ?lay? I, for ono, proteat against this ono-flldcd justice, awl call upon all cairn, unprejudiced Northern people to put down this unnatural crwlng for excitement and blood. You may put n ball in motion which you may not bo able to stop. Remembor the French Revolution. Those who instituted the horrors and iiroscriptioua were them selves tho victims before it ended. We hnve suffereel enoeigb. Now is tho timo to stop. If we ran forget, surely gou can. The spirit of the time should be, "Let tho dead Past bury its dead." Each sido has hud gri-jvous wrongs to bear, and mem oiies to recall; but "Timo will bo the best expiation." You havo accomplished what yon attempted. You have abolished slavery, and, I suppose, you will not be c.ontonted till you havo made tho negro your equal. I give you Oud-spccd in your work. Mako Cuffoe a gen tleman?though I fear tho groen grass will grow over most of us before that desirable result ?a attained. You have humiliated tho South; and, surely, you can afford to rest upon your victorious laurels and be just, at least, if not magnanimous. Root satisfied with confiscation?, but sliA'el no more blood. \ Southern Woman. Lafayette, ?\la. I am not an admirer of tho course of the extreme radi cals who havo brought upon our country the calamities of civil war?but I can give my meed of admiration for consistency wherever I find It. I would, therefore, fur rather see the TWbune than such papers as the Herald patronized by the South, however ably conducted the latter paper is. From the signs of the times, I inclino to think that if sense and moderation rule tho day, the Deroocmtio party may regain their former position of strength?but by keeping up wrangling and the rich names which have been applied to tho different shades of opinion in the Democratic party during the past few years, the Repub licans will continue to bold what they have gained by tho dissensions oi their opponents. On the question of negro suffrage, I think that New York will show llsflf Bound, and that tho number of those who would plaoe the negro on a level with tbc whlto man is by no means sufficient to create any reasonable alarm In the minds of those who lovo the Constitution as it was. One hears very littlo said now about tho Ketchum frauds and forgeries; in fact, rather a sympathy seems to have grown up for him. Tho fart is that the times have created such on army of parties who arc, in some measure, partakors in his guilt, by their gambling trans actions in stocks, that they hardly feel as if there wore any so "without sin" as to be ablo "to cast the first stone at him." I incline, therefore, to the belief that he will, in the end, escape any heavy penalty for his guilt. King Sol gave us quito a sensation, In bis eclipse, the other day. On all sides we saw smutty faces upturned towards tho skies, from the steady-going merchant to the fashionable bello. Henry Ward Beccher has been delivering a very elo quent sermon on behalf of tho South, whloh docs him groat credit. Pity that he should ever have turned his talents to other use than those of appeals in favor of suffering humanity. We have quite a musical sensation here at present In the shape of Blind Tom, tho negro pianist. It Is really a wonder, and even tho puffing of the Herald can hardly detract from his merit, both as performer and composer. Carl Forms and his two brothers give a grand concert next week. Of bis brothers.rcport speaks most highly. Ho himself is well known to all for his splendid organ, and, alas I that I should say so, for his poor singing. Now brooms sweep clean, and ander tho pr?sent re gime the Now York Custom House is becoming a well regulated ande fflclont office. To be a clerk there la now no sinecure; and the public are being protected against tho frauds and mismanagement which too frequently have disgraced that Department. I will venture to say that Undo Sam will derive a much greater Incomo than heretofore from that Department. We are suffering much from tho long and continued drought, which has rendered it necessary for the Cro. ton Commissioners to appeal to the public to be as sav ing as possible of water, as tho reservoirs are extremely low. Fortunately we have had but few large fires of late, or tho consequences might have been very serious, There has boon a good eleal of sickness in our city of lato, owing to tho rapid changes of temporature. I trust that sottled winter weather, which cannot bo Car distant, will not matters right again. Huntingdon, our great artist in portrait, has painted a very fine picture of tho Court of Washington. It will doubtless bo engraved and become very popular. < Wo had a slight frost yesterday morning, and winter promises to set in early. It soems probable that fuel will be very dear aU winter.
