A refusal to surrender papers and records is made punishable by fine and imprisonment. DeLarge, from the Committee of Ways aod Means, reported ffdversely to the resolution imposing a special annual tax of $500 upon Kershaw District to support the widow of Dill. The report was based upon the unconstitution? ality of sp?cial taxation, and was adopted. The widow of Dill, however, will receive the per diem and mileage of ber husband. The consideration of the question of reduc? ing the bonds of State officials was resumed. Whipper made a strong speech against the proposition. He said that be should insist that the following facts should be pnt upon record on the journal : . - First. That reducing the bonds of the treas? urer would seriously impair the credit of the State. Second. The bill was introduced for the pur? pose Of placing the treasury fonds in the hands cf >. man who bad proved. himself utterly on worthy by offering as bondsmen men of'straw, and who, moreover, had promised th?? ^o of j the bills receivable of the State to an f man who would go his security. Third. He opposed the reduction of the bonds of officers, either of doubtful character or of doubtful honesty. Fourth. Improper influences had been em? ployed to play upon Ute credulity of members. The speech created a great sensation; but when the vote waa taken the amendment was lost- by 25 ayes to 67 nays. The House likewise refused to reduce the Treasurer s bond to S6G,008. Another bill, however, has been introduced with a view to checking the treasurer and pro? tecting the public funds. The bill establishing Circuit Courts was or? dered to its third reading.' The proceedings of the Senate were of no general interest. Smith, the young man wounded in the row on Saturday night, died this morning. The in? quest is now progressing amid great excite? ment.

THE BRAWL OF SATURDAY NIGHT-THE EFFECT TftOH PUBLIC FEELING-POLITICAL GOSSIP THE STATE CREDIT, AC. fraoM OUR ows REPOSTES.] COLUMBIA, August 2.-The city ie thorough bly difitDxed by the-row which occurred I? night and resulted in the mortal wounding young Smith, a clerk in the posto mee here, one of the colored members of the Leg isla tm Half a dozen reports Of the affair ar e in c eolation* but after sifting them all, I find th the statement sent you by telegraph is, int main, correct The members occupied a hon in a disreputable portion of the oily. A .par of young men on a frolic mistook the premie for a brothel, A colored member was met on side, words passed, a blow was Struck, and tl member was followed into the house. The i mates left wi thoa t the usual formalities of leav taking, and coming to the front, pistol-firii commenced. Here there is a difference oi te timony. The members say that there was bi one pistol in the house, and when snapped - did not explode. On the otber hand, it is a leged that not more than one of the young me was armed; yet from twenty to thirty pi?t shots were fired. Two women from an opp site house- say they-distnieirly-ew-colored-CM in the middle of the street shooting vigorous!. The young men retreated. If not fired at, wi did they nm ? If well arme?.'why should tbe run ? If no pistols were discharged by the oo ored m embers, who shot Smith? Smith was found on the sidewalk in iront c tbe premises, witb a ball through bis face That he did not go into the bouse is a fae well established. He may have been passing and thus became the victim of on accident; c he may have accompanied the party, and bea shot purposely. Whoever discharged the fatt pistol must have been close to him, as powde marks are said to be visible on bis face. H certainly bears in Columbia the reputation c being a peaceable, inoffensive and corree young man. Again, the colored members say that ther were from ten to fourteen in the party who af sailed them. I am assured that there wer only six or seven, at the outside, twp of wboi were United States soldiers. The whole affai thus seems to be involved in mystery, and th truth is only likely toc?me out under the croa examination of a courtroom. " Bad blood bas beer? generated b?the_pccui renee. The citizens, and especially the youn? men, are dieeatiefied because somebody ba not been arrested, while not a few of the mern bera fully believe that the Ku-Klux-KianJba broken loose in earnest, and this adventure i only the first instalment of horrible things ye to be. 'A young colored man named Howari (the clerk of one of tbe committees), wh< boarded in the bouse, has doubtless been mon practically impressed with, this idea than an; others,'for sinoe jumping from a window durinj the row, be has not been seen or heard from The probability is that he went to Charlestoi from some depot down the road by tbe morn ing train. Better political capital cannot be furnished tho Republican party, both at borne anc abroad, than by events of this character. Al ready, for electioneering purposes, tbe repor is being freely circulated among the freedmei in varions districts-I quote from a letter just received-"tMt that the li vea of the member; of tbe Legislature are in. imminent danger that they are compelled to carry guns through the streets, and even to the House and Senate to protect them from the assaults of sangui? nary D?mocrate; that guns have been fired ai them while engaged in business, and brick? bats are frequently thrown through .the win? dows while in session.'' .. ' Of course there is not a shadow of truth in these statements, but they show how .neces? sary it is to the s necea s of the Republican party that.it shall feed on blood, whether meta phoricafly:or in fact... Another element of strength to the Re? publicans is the recommendation of lead? ing Democrats that.no colored .man shall be employed who will not agreei.^to vote for Seymour and Blair. The for? mer claim that something of this sort was necessary to consolidate the sentiment of the Legislature, from ooo cause or another, a very considerable proportion of the two bodies were becoming too.moderate, too conservative and weak-knee J, to snit the extreme Radicals! Very influential colored men bave, recently not responded with alacrity to the crack of the party whip when it was- laid about them. There was an evident disposition on their part to crowd out and put down all those who estimated l?gislation not by the good done to the State, bu1, by the benefit secured to the party. This feeling is undergoing a change. Backs are growing stiffer. Caucusses ?re held in which militia bills, land bills, taxation, suffrage laws, charter elections, and kindred topics are considered to 'the one end, that the State may beyond probability be carried by the Republi? cans. The Laud Commission bill, to which reference was made in a former letter, will now undoubtedly go through. Its friends say they must have lands some how or any how, on* which to locate these who may be discharged from employment. A proposition bas been made to resume the work on the new State House, so as to furnish employment. Heavy taxation is suggested, to compel owners, to sell land, and Cain has introduced resolutions call? ing for a report of all property against which there are executions for unpaid taxes and likely to be sold therefor.. Never have I seen the extreme Radicals in better spirits than now. They are watching every movement made by tho Democrats of the Stale, in the hope that it will supply them with capital wherewith to carry their"designs through the Legislature; and a m i ero sc Dpi c excuse will soon suffioe tor the attainment of any object whioh the Northern landshark or the Southern' speculator may have .'in view. Tremendous sobemes are incourse of plotting, and under tbe plea that they aie designed to make the Republicans tum out en masse in the fall, will be rushed through with frightful haste. There ar? a number cf shrewd, practi? cal men, colored and white, in both Houses, who ore too keen to be deluded by this dodge, but there are enough outsiders-the lobby members, to whom Tomlinson the other day. administered a severe castigation-to counter? act whatever healthy influences may be brought into the field. Mais, nous verrons. The messenger sent by Governor Scott to in? quire into the cause of the difficulty at Union has returned, and reports all quiet. The ne? groes were informed that they must not carry arms to their pubbc meetings, nor in any way attempt to disturb the public peace. It ap? pears that they were deluded by a negro named Bates, who manufactured a lot of stuff, which be said Governor Scott told bim to repeat ito the colored people, but for which there was not the slightest foundation, and behoving it, the poor creatures were prepared for any deviltry at a moment s notice. Tbe Governor is about effecting the Jonu au? thorized by the Legislature. A New York banker is here I think prepared to engage largely in financial transactions with the State. Another gentleman is here who is anxious to negotiate for the purchase of all the public lands donated by the act of Congres 3 for the purpose of schools. If the United States will allow him to, locate the land in Colorado be will probably pay cash and take the lot. PERSONNE. THE CAMPAIGN. THE RESULT TN NOVEMBER-A WESTERN ES?

Counting the votes of the four States which Congress proposes to exclude, one hnn ar?d Bi?rrtlftf-"nln? would 'be'-^ecesBaiy'to a choice. The four States will vote by a large majority for-Seymour and PJ*rr,'-which would make their total vote one hundred and eighty four, twenty-five more than a majority..' Our correspondent claims Wisconsin for Seymour, although placing it among the doubt? ful. His reasons for this conclusion are these : At the gubernatorial election in 1863, James T. Lewis was elected over H. L. Palmer by some 25,000 majority, this including the soldiers' vote, lu 1864, Lincoln's majority was 17,000. Ia 1865, Fairchild's majori tv over Hobart (Dem. ) was 10|000. In 1867, Fair child over Tall madge had bat' 4070. There bad been a grad? uai reduction of the Radical majority in that State from 25,000 in 1863 to leas than 5000 in 1867. At this rate what will become of Grant's chances? Oar correspondent gives us an additional reason why Wisconsin will vote for Seymour, that both Presidential candidates are person? ally known to a large portion of tho people of ? that State. Governor Seymour, who has a large - -pecan ?arv. intereaA in tba northern part of that Stat?, visits Wisconsin nearly every year; and wherever be is known be is loved. Grant is also known to many Wisconsin people, and where best known be will receive tho fewest vote?. Our correspondent concedes New Hampshire to Grant, although he says that the vote will be BO close that only the official returns can .?ettjnnine .the- result. Indiana be claims, for Seymour and Blair, while be has no doubt that Ohio will cast her .vote tor Grant. He claims the entire Southern electoral vote (with the exception ol Brownlow's dominion) for Sey? mour, alleging that from the close of the war until the present time, the Southern brain bas been entirely passive; the opposition to the reconstruction schemes being.' ?imply of, a negative character. Now, with a well-defined object in view, the prospect of a Bpesdy de lavery, .from Radical dominion, the Southern brain will be brought into positive action; and tbe negro votesiwbach bave been manipulated by carpet-baggers 'and paid political agents of I the Radical party, will be hurled with over? whelming force against that party which .has misled and deceived them, OHM ON OE JUDGE CEASE. The New York , correspondent of the Louis? ville Democrat has had an interview with Judge Chase, who bas lately arrived in .that city. In his conversation with the correspondent of the Democrat he ia thus reported: - As to the results in November next, he rolly expresses his conviction that the chances are, decidedly in favor of tbe Democratic nominee -provided there is no cheating round the board. The Edmunds bill regulating the South? ern electoral votes.he looks upon as afore shadowing of fonl play, and the Democrats are advised tc-keep theil- eyes on it accordingly. Blair's letter, be says, is simply up to the exi? gencies of the times. He sees nothing revolu? tionary in it. On the contrary, he is inclined to think ibat it aims to stop the revolution, Tfhichthe admission of carpet-bag senators is undoubtedly working in oar form of govern? ment. The; letter hence will do no harm, but possibly mach good, if it retains the Jacobins from ? f?rt h er outrages, by indicating what the future has in store for them. j' GENERAL THANK P. BLATB IN KANSAS-HE AD D HES SES A LABOE OATBZBTNO. OF DEMOCRATS. A telegram from Leavenworth, Kansas, da? ted July 21,-EayB : . General-Frank P. Blair addressed an im? mense meeting this evening. His speech was principally devoted to the action of the Radical party in the reconstruction of the Sooth, and the record of General Grant. He charged that the Republicans having lost the confidence of the whole people of the country, bad resorted to the support ot the blacks. That it was from .ila ipre of-^tbo negro raoe-that they enfran? chised them, but only as a scheme to maintain themselves in power. He said he had nothing to say against General Grant personally ; that his miliitary services would e*er be remem? bered with pride; bat that since he bad entered the arena of politics, bis acts politically were Stoper matters for publi : criticism. He said tat General Grant had changed his views on the subject of reconstruction incon? sistently, .having at tbe close of the war, urged the immediate admission of the senators, and representatives from the Southern States chosen then by the people of those States. Bot, be said, the secret of the adherence of Generals- Grant, Sheridan and other regular officers to the Radical party is the tendency of that party which has over? thrown'tbe preronativeu of-the SnpremenCourt and Executive branch of the government to? ward military'despotism, which, being necessa? rily based upon mibtary power, would give oonseguenc? to promiheotofficers of the army." He said history shows no party pursuing the conree and using the means adopted by the Radicals canlive -and .receive the support of tbe people.- He denied that the sentiments ex? pressed in his letter, or the New York speech, were revolution?r? that the. people.. of j the United States at- lue last elections had repu? diated negro suffrage, upon which waa based J the wholej-econsfruction ?cheme; that to over? throw by proper cbrisr^tdorial means Recon? struction acts ie-but carrying oat the will of the people. He charged that toe Radical party only are . revolutionary. ID reply to a remark from the crowd he said that the Radical party have made copperheadisni respectable.; Gen.

The Washington correspondent 61 th? New York Herald writes ?-c . When the Senate adjourned a large number of nominations were pending which were not acted on. Many persons are nuder the impres? sion that when the Senate takes a recess the nominations before it remain to be acted upon' till it reassembles. There is a rule of the Sen? ate, however, which provide) that when a re? cess or adjournment takes place for the period of thirty days, all nominations pending at the commencement of such recess or adjournment fail at the end of that time. THE pBESTDEXT AST) HIS ATTORNEY GENERAL. The friends of Attorney General Evarte say that bis presence in the Cabinet will act as a restraint upon the combative tendencies of the President. Mr. EvartB, it is urged, under? stands better than any other member ol the Cabinet the temper and purposes of the Badi cala, being himself a Republican. It is his ?UTpose so to advise Mr. Johnson, it is said, as j prevent him from committing any act that would render him liable to impeachment. The President has great confidence in the legal judgment of bis Attorney General, and will follow his advice more closely than ne did that of any of his predecessors. This will prevent him from falling into the traps set for bim hy? the Radicals. Mr. Evarts, for instance, has ad? vised him not tn remove Commissioner Rollins, and the President, it is now understood, wili not do so. So, also, with regard to the gov? ernments of the Southern States.' The Radi? cals promised themselves that the President would fail to recognize those governments, and thus render himself liable to impeach? ment, in this, however, they will be disap? pointed,-for Mr. Evarts will give Mr. Johnson such advice as will enable him to keep out of trouble, and there is little doubt that bo will follow ii. ADELINA PATTI-HEB MABBIAGE 'CONTRACT DISPOSAL OF HEB FORTUNE.-A Par?s corre? spondent of the New York Times writes as fol? lows : I have jost heard the pan ?culara of the mar? riage settlement agreed to between the Mar? quis de Cauz and Adelina Patti, or ra her enacted by Baron James Rothschild, as the friend and guardian of the latter. The Bum of 500.000 francs, constituting the whole of the Diva's fortune, is to be placed rn trust for the benefit of her self and children. The principal is not to be touched under any circumstances whatever, Mlle Patti herself enjoying the interest thereof. Due-third of her future earnings is to be set aside in the same manner, the remaining two third* to be used as ber husband and herself may decide. The father and mother of the bride arelo have each a pension of 6000 francs, w%jch is to be allocated out of ber income. This provi? sion ia honorable to MRe. Patti, whose senti? ments of daughterly affection bave always shown themselves superior to every other con? sideration. The Marquis de Canx asked to have the sum of 160,000 francs set aside for the payment of the mortgages on bia estates, but on this point the Baron de Rothschild and Maurice t?traLosoh were inexorable ; so that the prop? erty will bave to be put up for Bale, unless the ?editora of the Marquis consent to wait for the, chance ol the re payment from Adelina's rutare earnings, a contingency not very proba? ble, from the known spendthrift babita of ber future husband. It is oalcTilated that at present Mlle. Patti earns about 400,000 francs a year, which, with prade?os, would' soon enable the Mai qa is to Eay off his depta. Accustomed, however,' to ve at a rate far above his income, it is not likely that he will be induced to put snob a re? straint on his tastes as will enable him to ac? complish" so desirable a"?es??t. It had been stated that as soon as the marriage took place the services of Strakosoh would wdispensed with. So far is this from being the fact that the Marquis offers a contract to him to continue bia services to Mlle. Patti for three years, on terms nearly as advantageous as be? fore. You may rely upon the above being-the exact contract of the marriage settlement.

But the editor of the American Artisan describes what.he has actually seenjn thi? line. . .a book containing 24.993 ems of solid matter* which was both set and,- distributed by an electrical type-setting machine, in sir boura and thirty? 1 ?ino minutes. But this ia on!t the beginning of wonders. One of these machines, it is said may be placed in a newspaper office in Boston, or New York, or New Orleans, to be operated on by a reporter in the capitol at Washington or in any other place connected with the ma? chino by telegraph. That is, the reporter may take his notes to the telegraph and set them np in type at'the distant office; thus saving all the labor and expense of writing ont for the telegraph and rewritine at the end of the telegraph, to be set np by the newspaper com? positors. And even more than this is claimed for the machine, namely, that instead of set? ting up type as described above, the reporter may produce a matrix from which stereotype plates may be cast ina few minutes af tor'the reporting has ceased.

This is toe familiar question put to every invalid. In many cases the answer ls, "I don't know*bxactly, but I don't feel well." Look at the countenance of the man or woman who makes this reply, and you will generally find that the eyes are dull and lustre? less, the complexion sallow, the cheeks flaccid, and the whole expression of the face dejected. Interro? gate the invalid more closely, and you will discover that constipation, the result of a disordered stomach and a torpid Tiver, is at the bottom of the mischief. "That's what's the matter." Whoever has expe? rienced the effects of T??tRANT'S EFFEBVES CENT srBT.Tyn^. APERIENT in such cases, need noWo be told to recommend it as a remedy.

There are fifty ways of alleviating the agonies of dyspepsia for the moment; but there is only one way to CUBE it After ''swinging round the circle" of tem? porary palliatives the patient finds that the disease, so far from baing subdued, has actually gathered strength, while he has been parleying with its sym toms. The only way to get rid of the demon is to endow the stomach with sufficient strength to cast it out and keep it out. Import permanent energy to the di? gestive organs with HOSTE!TEE'S STOMACH BIT? TERS, and the object is accomplished. This power? ful vegetable remedy is not a mere stimulant It does not brace up the gastric machinery for an hour or two, leaving it, when the temporary excitement has passed off, in a worse state than bef jre. Such is the effect of the ordinary alcoholic nostrums. They kefrp the stomajh in ti perpetual see-saw between un? natural activity and utter relaxation. Not so the BITTERS. Medicated with the finest tonic, altera tive and anti-bilious extracts, they permanently re? inforce and continuously regulate the assimilating; organs. Such is the experience of tens of thousands. At this debilitating season of the year, when the sol? vent principle of the gastric juice is weakened by a constant drain of the animal finida through the poree HOSTETIER'S BITTERS is an article of prime ne? cessity for the weak. To neglect the use of a tome and alterative, so wonderfully efficacious and entirely harmless, is simply to forego the blessings of health and vigor, and voluntarily accept feebleness and dis? comfort in their stead.
