It was considered uusnfo to go under it. The Maj or orderod ropes strotcnod m front of tho I building, and a policeman statisned near to I caution those who were passing in tho vicinity. Tho building, in tho words of a member, was unsafe at both cuds, and that involved the centre. When tho Honso mot but a bare quo? rum wu s prosent, and the regular order of busi? ness way suspended. Tho appropriation bill, and tho bill to ratify, confirm and amend tho charter ot the Charleston (rf.

M. to-morrow, in the College Chapel. Is THE SENATE tba reports of committees waa cawed up. Nash introduced thc following rosolution: Resolved, That a committee of thiee bo ap? pointed by the president to inquire whether a suitable pince tor tho meetings of tho S.'aatc can be obtained at the college buildings. Nash said some of the senators seemed de? termined to sleep at dickerson's Hotel. At the last special session thero was a groat cry, ''Let us co to Nickersoir's," and now it stif-med the only way for senators to sleep thore was to rent the building, aojieof them would co there and sleep in their seats, su that they might nave it to say that they slept at Nickorson's. A st!anger would suppose, from the anxiety shown by some members, that they all owned (?tock in dickerson's, ?te bad understood that a room could be fitted up ut the college build? ing for the Senate at a cost of $50, whereas it was proposed to give $3333 34, so that some senators may have the picasuro of stopping at dickerson's. He thought thia was paying I rather too muon for the whistle. Ho hau stopped at Nickerson's for some thirty ye;ra, ; and had slept thero, buf did not consider him? self particularly honored nor better than other 1 senators. Thc senator from Charleston (Air. Corbin) at the last session opposed their in? sisting on going to dickerson's Hotel, giving, among other reasons, that lt would injure . Grant's election. That is over, and now that ho knows that some of us thought rather bard ' of his opposition then, bo comes out with his lat go heart, having thought, slept and dreamed over it, and say? we bad better go to Nicker? son's. He (Nash) desired that they should go to tho College buildings. Mr. Corbin said he had understood the spe? cial committee as having reported ic impracti? cable for tho General Assembly to sit in tho College buildings, ?ind that Nickerson's was tho only suitable place they could obtain. If, however, they could bc accommodated at tho College, he was in favor of going there. Ho j concluded by offering a resolution that ?i spe- [ cia! Committee of three be appointed to inquiro and report ou thc subject. Thc resolution was agreed to. and Messrs. Coibin, Itose and Nash appointed the commit? tee, who have agreed upon a report in favor ot ' removal to tho College library lo-uiorrow. The following were read fi third limn and ; passed: " j A bill lo incorporate IhoSouth Carolina Phos? phate1 Company. , A bill to provide foe tho payment of tho feos Of sheriffs tor dieting persons conliuod m Jail.

D., 1859, for tho disposition of casos now pending therein, . unless othorwiso piovided bylaw." Section 17 provides ' that tho General Assembly shall ? provide by law for the preservation of tho r;c- J ords of the Courts of Equity, and abo for tho , trausfc-r tb the Court ot Common Picas and . Probate Courts for final decision of all causes ? that may remain undetermined." Soctioa 20 " provides, "a Court of Probate shall be estab? lished in each connty, with jurisdiction in ali , matters testamentary and of administration, j in business appertaining to minors and tbe al? lotment of dower, in cases of idiocy audluuacy, ? and persons non compos mentis." From these provisions of the constitution lt * ls apparent that the Courts of Ecju.ty, benito- r fore established, and as now organized, con have no constitutional existence after the first . day ot January next. They aro not only hm- i itcd to the period, but the General Assembly 0 is required to provide for tho preservation of ^ the records of said courts, and tho transfer for final decis on.of all causes that may then remain , undetermined to the Courts of Common Pleas f. and Probate Courts. * The Master and Commissioner in Equity aro ?, but patts ot the organization of the Court of >'( Equity as heretofore established; it we should continue thal office as auxiliary to the new Courts ot Common P eas, wo should in ? fleet ? continue the oid svstem which tbecousntu- ?! non emphatically abolishes. Besides it trans? fers tho business of that court to the uew courts; for example: it would bo impossible by ? legislative enactment to deprive t ie Court ot ^ Probate of tho constitutional jurisdiction con- * terred upon it relative to "causes that romain " undetermined" on tho first day of January ? next. It vi auld be impossible for tho Masters ? in Equity to retain and disposo of such causes. The Legislature at its last session complied !! with the provisions of tho constitution relativo * to tho preservation ot the recoids of the Courts " of Equity nnd the transfer of causes to their " proper jurisdiction. Soo section 18 of tho "Act to organize the Circuit Courts." It is not " deemed wise, if indeed it weru constitutionally possible, to interfere with the execution ot said L act. We dio about adopting a now system of ' practice and pleading which is radically differ? ent from tho old, and wo cannot afford tj nur its symmetry by retaining any part of tho old : system inconsistent with it. Thc reason set forth ia the petition for re- ? taiuing thc Commissioner ia Equity another , year, excopt in so fur as they rel?te lo causes to b.e transferred to the Court o' Probate (wnich r cunnot be prevented under the constitution), i will be found to be more apparent thau real, i By reference to the **Act lo "reflate tho prac- { tice of the Circuit Courts in en-tain oases," section 5, it will be ?cen that "ali issues uf law and fact in civil cr.ses may be referred to arbi? trators or referees"-tho parties to tuc cause, ! or the court, aoiccting thc reforce or r e t crees.

[From Smith, Edwards k Co.'* Ciroular | LIVERPOOL, December 1.-Our market lias not experienced important fluctuations dorine; rho past mouib, and closes nt rather over thc openme? prices. Dur last report closed upon a strong market. Duriu,' all Octooer the tendency r f prices !iad been onward, t!ic trade and exporters had been large buyers, and tba buoyant feeling con? tinued during the first few ilayu of '?-ovember, middling uplands roac'.uug U|tL and fair Dlio!

Bu: tncro was not much confidence felt io the movement, as trade iu Lancashire was known to ba very oad, and it was bolieved that, a great reduction o? con? sumption would take pl ce as soon as the Par? liamentary elections were over. Tho chiot eircumstaneo t nat had supported our markot waa the extraordinary scarcity of American cotton, and the very small shipments that were advised from America. But as soon as expo-ts to England be?un loincroaso an uu oasy.'c-. ig came over holders, aud our mar? ket san? mto a depressed slate; American on the s-o fell to lOjJ. for middling upland-) a id fair riiOilerah to 8?d., and American cotton to orr iv? was pressed t?rsalo till Orleans, ship named, could not bo sold at over 10?

Tue weather was reported as verv ino. piekin:: wan said to bo going on favorably, and estim?t.s were generally raised lOJ.OOO to 200.000 bales. Our market accordingly remained iu a some? what depressed conditi m tor a roitnight, and the trade only took during theso two weeks 87 OOO bales per woo lt. But attention was now awakonod to tho tar? dy increase of thc receipts of cottoti at tho American ports; for u.ro.i weeks io HU cessiou the? l-aaged between 70 000 and 70.000 bales figures which were uoc thought consistent with ths laigo estimates n JW coming fo> ward shipmen ta to England increased materially, say to an average ol' fully 2?.0J0 huies per week, but this attracted lessattoution than the smallness of the receipt*. Accordingly a bet? ter feeliug Bprang up in our market ten days ago, and the trade becoming uneasy at tho rapid reduction of sto.:k and tho poor proj Sects of futuro supply, bjught heavily for uomo ays (their takings for last week being 74,000 bales), and prices advanced jd to .J i fir Amorioan cotton on the spot ana ?1 per Jb to arrive. East Lidia cotton ou tuo'opot rose ?jd to id per lb. On Friday and Saturday last a quieter feeling set in, but to-day, under news that the wee&'s receipts aro ouly 74U00 bales and shipments to England 20 000 ba KM, tborc is renewed buoyancy in the market, and, w.th a large business.doing, pricos ure advancing, and cloRo at ll jd for middling up,ands on tho spot, lOfjd to lO?d for Sivumana to arrive ship named, lOjd to lOjd for Orleans, in same posi? tion, and bj J for tau?

Tho complaints of spinners und manufacturers we o loud and universal.and the opinion prevailed that after too elcctio.is wero over there would bo an extensivo resort to "short time." There were, indeed, u.au.v individual cases whoro short limo working was adopted, and tho consumption wus at ono time probably cut short sumo thousand bates por week. But after the elections were over :i much better demand for go xis and yamo sprang up in Manchester than had been . x pr?ctcd; a very considerable business w is done at a rise corresponding with ilrat in Llverj.o 1, aad iu.stoad of a genoral re.-Oit to Mior: tuno there was actually a decrease of it, and the great b-ilk ot tho milla wura kept on full time.

Tbs prospoats of our nnrkoi at tbs pr?3i:it imo are bound up iu a ?pcojal manner with he out-turn of the American crop. W\j direct ittentiou first to this point. Tho picking sea? ton ha? been fino and prolonged till towards be end Oi Just month, when we were aavi.?"d >f a "killing frost," but it was too late to do uuch harm. Estimates have shown a d cided ende-icy to iuereaao, a;.d whereas a month ! igo thc favorito opinion was 2,100 000 to 2 ?00.- I 100 bales, or ibo same as last crop, wo WJU.-J mw say that 2,?OJ,0dD is the favorite ligare. Vt h'ew York, tue Atlantic ports, and Mobile ather smallor estimates are current, but ut iew Orleans many place tho crop as high as 1,700.000 bales. Tuorea-ou of this discrepancy s that tho crops in the Atlantio Stales ani Uabama aro admitted by ult to bo deficient, iy most persons the fulling off is put at twenty >er cent, from last year, whereas in the States ?ordering tho Mississippi and in Texts tho :rops ore said to bi much better tuan last 'car, and promise a largo iuereasu, c-timated >y-some as high as fifty to sixty par cent. It appears to vu, however, thu thc scale of eceiprs we aro uow utiving is not equal to 1 vhat might be expected with a crop of ?000,000 or 2 700,000 bile?.

Bold and Lawless Proceedings ot Armed Organizations of Freedmen. The Savannah Morning News gives thc fol? lowing account of some outrageous proceed? ings of the freedmen in tho neighborhood of that city: Ou Saturday last a negro thief oitue upon tho plantation" of Mr. J. S. Moutmollin, about fifroou miles up tho river, and. while in the act of stealing saeoD, wis discovered by Mr. Mont mollin, wno, as tho negro turned to osoapo, shot at him with a rille, woundiutrhim iu tho thigh. Tho fellow, unwed Alfred or A.b.-rt Jones, was ono of tho groatest scoundrels in tue country, and, after capturing him, Mr. Mon Uno Ihn gave him in charge ot a mau named Walls, to whom he also delivered his r fl -, telling him to watch the prisoner until he (iloatmollin; went to his boase and procured his mule cart. Shortly after ho came back with the vehicle, mid having secured his prisoner :n tho cart, he drove off to town, leaving tho rifle w.th Walls. Oi arriving here ho deposited the prison? er in the Polico L!arracks. About twelve o'clock on Simd iv, Mr. Mont mo! lia s .ar - ed in Ins mulo cart to go hume, ac? companied by CV.o. a servant boy, on horse? back, iio proceeded up the Augusta road quiotly enough until hu reached tho eleven milo post. There ho carno up to a negro armoel with a gan, who appeared to bo posted on picket. Tho negro acted in a suspicious manner, ana scrutinized Mr. Montmolhn close? ly, as though to mako sure that it was the per? son that he was watching tor, and then jumped into tho swamp and dushed t trough the muck and water on a run, keopina on a course parallel with tho road, and apparently trying to get ahoad of the wagon. The color?d boy, Cato, begged Mr. Montmollin for Goi's sake to turn back, as it was plain to be seen that tbe ne? groes h id come nut to kill him. By this time he hud nearly roached the twelvo mile stone, when the road suddenly became black with nogrocs, armed with Enfield rifles and revolvers, hatch? ets, nxes and knives. A small house by tho ro dsido was lilied wi.h them, while in tho rear of the wagon auother gang had s orung from tho cover of tho woods into tho road, and captured the boy Cato, who was riding behind. Mr. Moutmollin had no weapon with him, except a small pistol, ana he took that out ot ids pocket, determined that it he was to bo killed, ono of tho murderous party, at least, should pay the penalty of the act. The negroes appeared to be under regular military organization. They had a oolonsl, a young, elaudiflcd, vdlanous looking black, who stepped into the road and commanded Mr. Mentmollin to halt. He stopped aud saluted the ' 'colonel" with "'good morning." Tho "colonel" said "1 have brought my men out hore to have sat? isfaction out of you." Mr. Montmollin said ' What have Idr-no?" To this the "colotiol" replied-"You shot ti gontleman." He answer? ed-"I shot the biggest thief in the county." The "colonel" said-"You had no business to .Loot him." A tall, coal black negro, mount? ed ou a mole, acted as a lieutenant of tho negroes. He, at this jaucture, called out, "Come men, bj twos into two lines," and they then formed o i each side of lbs mad. Mr. Moutmolliu had 'us pistol in his hand, and said to tho "colonel"-'T sup? pose that you are going to kill me. lt s no use for you to do that. I did shoot tho thief, uml can and will kill one of you." Tko "Colo? nel'' jabbered away for some time, and told Mr. Moutmollin that they knew he had but ono pistol, and that they had secured his rifle from thc man with whom" ho loft it. Cato here oamc ii]), and begged thom to sparo his master's life, and to do him no harm. Arter a whis? pered consultation among themselves the "colonel" got up on tho seat of the eart beside Mr. Montmollin, and placed two mon in tho bi ck part of the cart, ordering them to keep their revolvers constantly pointed at Montmol? lin. He was thou told to drive forward, and start? ed the Ulule, the olhei uogroes surrounding the cart, and marching along with it. About a nillo up the road thoy met a cart containing a un m 1er of negroes, "who appeared disposed to drive on, buitrero sloppod by thc "colonel," who invited thom to join bis meu. Tho ne? groes drew off to ono sido of tho road, and held a lung consultation: they aupcarod to quarrel among themselves, and, Judging by their actions, air. Montmollin concluded that ono party wanted to shoot, while tho other fa? vored releasing him. While engaged in this pow wo .\ tho negroe* amusod themselves by cocking and aiming their guns at him. At length they cu mo up to him aud told him to drive off homo ; and, glad to escapo, he was not long ^ in roaching that point. Shortly after reaching the noue9. ii: then ticing eiark) Cato carno in ana reported that tho negroes wore marching np to iho p.'ace, aud declaring that thoy would kid Slr Moat (Dollin. laking his r flo ?ind axo hu left tho hou-re with Cuto, gol out tue mule i ait, and as tho negro -s were on tho high road, thoy tuon to the woods, travelling part of Hie w. von iho old road bed of tho Savannah and Charleston Bailroacl.
