Ordered for considerado Monday. Hnvne, of tho special committee on the iient?ary, submitted thc following re which was ordered for consideration ou i day: inc spacial committee on tho penitent to whom was referred tho message of his i cellency R. IL Scott, Governor, relative to South Carolina Penitentiary, have consid ' the same, and beg leave toioport: That they fully concur with his Escell that a change in the penitentiary Ls ucees to thc protection of the public interest, that his Excellency bas come to this cor sion, they venture" to hopo that the chi may bo sp .'eddy effected. Upon referenc the "Act to provide for the government ot South Carolina Penitentiary," passed Sept ber 23,1S6S, second section, it will be seen Governor has power to appoint a suporintt ent, by and with the advico and consent of Senate. By the thirteentl. section of said tho Governor has also power, by and with advice and consent of the Senate, to app three directors of the Stato Penitenta These several officers once appointed b such power?, ard aro under such restncti( that your committee can but believe a cri improvement will speedily take place in affairs of thc penitentiary. When his Ex lency shall have made tbe appointments, y committee recommend immediate action the part of the Senate. Till then your c< mittce conceive no action to bo necessary the part of tbe Senate. The bill to organize and govern th3 militi: the State of South Carolina was taken up ic second reading, and considered by sectio Quite a large audience gathered ia tho Sen chamber to hear tue discussion on this t It was known that Senator Leslie was re lu tely opposed to thc bill, and, it was report' would fight it to thc end. 1 append a sh synopsis o; the dpeech, which occupied atx two hours in delivery. Mr. Leslie moved that the furthor consid ation of the bdl be indefinitely postponed. 1 carried the bili home with him last night, t not, he said, like Daniel Webster or Mayne, -jeep over it, neither did he sleoj on it. i was not, tboreforo, prepared to do justice tbe subject. Ho desired to say thal of all m in tuis world tbe most practical aro the Yu kees, and this State government practically a government that if it is not Yankee, it pretty well Yankeeized. It was right, too, thought, thal it should be so. AU there is progress in this country, all there is of popul advancement and education, has come direct from the North, and he challenged any one deny it. Now, then, the Senate is called upon to px a bill to organize and govern the militia South Carolina. They were Bitting there i practical men, and they meant to be practice They advertise to bo practical, and that the reason why the party to which most them belonged had, so far, succeeded. Thi ore a party of progress, a party of knowlcdg a party of life, and a party that is practical i every sense of the word-slow to action, alo to anger, but practical whenever they mov The militia, he contended, could only be calle out, practically speaking, in two contineenciei In case the civil anthon ties-the sheriff, for ii stance-from combinations of the opposition, unable to enforce tho law, and the people bi come so riotous that he cannot keep tbepeaci he has under the law the right to read the rit act, and ii he cannot disperse them, then th militia is called oat. The second is when tb Governor decl ares martial law in any county i the State. As to the first case, he would as any friend ot the bill it there had arisen a caa in the Stato of South Carolina where the militi could have been legally and properly called ou if organized. Perhaps somebody would say "yes ihey killed a man up in Abbeville." Wei they could net use tho militia to arrest i ha man. They might kill a. half dozen up in New berry, and they could not use the militia b arrest those parties. lt was, as he had said before, that thor were only two contingencies in which the mil i tia could be used. When could tba G o ve rn oi declare martial law ? Not unless the oonduc of the people throughout any locality of thi State is suoh that it is impossible to enforci tho law, and where the civil officers are pre vented from discharging their duty. Whei the people become so riotous and are in suet torce that the civil officers cannot serve or cn force their writs, then the Governor can de clare martial law. It cannot be declared when ever the Governor pleases, and lam certain, sait the speaker, that oar Governor or thc Gover nor of any other State would be very careful o taking any such step unless there was a casi of real necessity. Up to this time lhere had been no possible contingency in which the militia could bi used, and if it could not up to this time when under beaven will they bo called UDOI for mili tia dut v ? How long will it take to"or ganize tho militia, and put it practically ink being ? You have got to get thc mon to comt up Iud be eurolled, you have got to get gum and clothimr, and tnen YOU must have a Qaar termiuter-Genoral, and a Surgeon-General, whosa business it is to heal all tho ailm.nts and somebody else to iurnish all tho uniforms, coate, hats and boots, and then you have tc get some one to CJH tract for them. Well, af: et t ney have done all that sort of business, I asli the friends ot the bill in what year of the Lord will probably com nones operations? If nc casco have yet anson, I ask iu what other year of our Loni they can arise V I think that tho people, and I desire to say it to the opposition, to thc Dornoeracy of this Stace, to thc radicals of this State, aiid to all not within those two parties, that"proposo to disturb thc p-race ot the State after the last election, "and aro persistent iu making covert war upon reconstruction and the State Gov? ernment of Sooth Carolina, that their labors in that direction should cease. We oil believe, uII lair-mindcd men believe, that the question of reconstruction was practically settled by Gene? ral Grant's election. Whatever thero ie ot evil in the present organization of this SUte gov? ernment will curry off, and at the next regular eiectioj all the evils they complain of can be substantially collected. There are counties in this State (hat have a very bad reputation, where some have not acted with order, nor in the true iuteresls of all the people. Of my own district. Barnwell, I have a right to say that a more peaceable people does not ex? ist, and not a single case of trou? ble or difficulty has arisen. Eadu man made a crop, and every ono is in a good bring condition. Tho price of laDd was ad? vanced ono hundred per cent. I say, the minds of tho people aro directed towards tho future, and to progress, peace and prosperity. IT there is anv portiou of tho people of South Carolina, in Newberry, Abbeville or Edgeficld, who are determined to roam over this land and make it unsafe for officers to ent'jrce the :aws; if they Uitend to do as they did in Edge field' thc other duy to a magistrate appointed by Governor Scott, who was followed into the courthouse by four armed men, and would have been shot but for thc presence ota friend; I say it thc good men of Edenfield County do Dot rise in tueurmatu to put down that style of lawless men, 1 promise to vote whatever is necessary of men or money lo enforci tho Jaw. 1 call upon all the fair-minded men of thc State, the conservative men ot the State, the moderate and the wise men, tbe mon who have all to lose and everything to make, that they see to it that peace and order prevails. Let mo say right herc that every cornily pa? per, every city paper, coming to* ui through thc mails, bring joyful tidings and proofs of substantial prosperity throughout the State, showing that the good tiuic so often predicted and so long expected is near at hand. There is to-day a more important question than the right of suffrage, reconstruction, or organiza? tion of the militia. It is tbe question ot' capi? tal and immigration. The lands all over thc State have increased in value to tho utter as? tonishment of all, even of that thne-houored citizen, "the oidest inhabitant." The freed? man bas his pocket tull ol' money, and the white man is counting his gains, is cheerful, and all ere brushing away thc cobwebs that have gathered upon thc oki implements of husbandry siucc tho last crop was laid by. The ploughs* arc in thc field by sunrise, and till seem contented and satisfied. [Here the Gov? ernor was announced.] I am glad, said Mr. Leslie, that his Excellency is here, for 1 want I to talk to him. There are lav-abiding pc J plc j in Edgcfield, Abbeville, and Newberry, but a i parcel of desperadoes, probably not numbering I more than twelve or fifteen, go roaming about those counties, travelling all over tho di: Tho good people of those counties ow themselves to make the country too such internal scoundrels, and if the Stat stable has not power enough, I will vo last man aud tho last dollar to bring desperadoes to justice, and if wo i pet enough mou hero wo will got from Now York or go to Ireland I tbe men. Let us strengthen the Constable. We mean these desperadoo not interpose or interfc: o to prevent tb cution of the laws and to threaten officer their lives. I pray ray friends to so ad foreclose forovcr the idea t?at tho mil needed in this Stato. Lot us all resoli re-resolvo that every man at tho North understand that the people of South Ca are, and mean to be, at peace with the1 world, and that thc Southern States, South Carolina in particular, is the Al ph Omega of America. If this policy alu sustained, and tho people act with car caution, two years of such prosperity a present year will give them more money the. know what to do with. Lay this militia bill right on the table, a bill to create moro officers. It is not to make peace, but a bill to make war. I ?ever failed in my predictions, but pass bill, and if you get peace in this Stato I confess my error. Pass this bill, and if is a cent of money left in the treasury yoi be compelled to spend it. You will have : iu the State all tho time. In hftecn mil we could pass a measure that would sc peace in the State. I would give the I Constab'e sufficient torco, if it takes all men in the State, to follow and pursue the wbo ore disturbing the pcaco in the Cou; ot Edgefield, Abbeville and Newberry; ai the people of those counties sympathize that class men and hide and shield them, them understand that there shall not be ali tning in all that locality; not a house, tre anything bo loft to tell that anybody ovei cupied the spot. Wo can organize a mom torco, if necessary. If tho conservative plo of those comities do not want this brought home to their own doors, let then good faith support the laws, tho Governor the officers ot the government, ia a const tional way. The people may depend upon it that bill, if it shall then pass, will pass ia sue modified form thal little or no exception bo taker* to it. I believe it is one of those i of th inga that will do to keop, and that best militia, in my judgment, that we CG have, tbat could be bad, is for this Legislat to pass wise and just la we. If I was one of those roaming character! Edgeficld, I could kill every Republican this State before you could get the militia ganized under this'bil'. It you want qc work, offer a resolution that the Governor in? ti proclamation calling upon all the fair-mi i< men of Edgefield, Abbeville and Newbe and everywhere, to rally round the dag of I nation, stand by the laws as they are ma promising on oar part to enact and mainti such laws as will operate fairly upon all peor. The speaker, in conclusion, gare a grap description of old militia musters and of th tolly. He did not wont militia in South Ca lina if it could be avoided. They had thi oDce, the pride of the State, and u?od to hoi apon their honer and valor. But Gene Sherman, in his march, swooped them ail like a coop of chickens, took them to Hart 1 md, from wbenco but few returned to t what bad boon done with them. In New York militia regiments are on a tl Parent footing. They ate partly political ( ionizations, and the splendor of their cqtii na en ts would bankrupt any reasonable man South Carolina. But imagine a thousand whi men and a thousand negroes mustered t training, and whiskey in circulation. If y don't get thc everlastingest fight before tn ire dismissed, you can do a great deal mo than I can. This is a bill of abominations, a jargon, bill to create offices and not a bill for prote lion at all. It would turn out nothing but tax-paying machine, a heavy burdon upon tl people, aud a constant evil ia the Stato-an thin g but what we realty need. Wright followed in reply, and said they d sired a militia b caus) the experience of tl past had taught tbom that a militia is nece aary tor a free State. He moved that the m tion to indefinitely postpone be laid on tl table Mr. Leslie called for thc yeas and nar which wore ordered, and are as follows: Yeas-Messrs. Barber, Corbin, Greene, Hoy Mayne, Jillaon, Lunney, Maxwell, NRBI Rainey, Ro3s, Swails, Wright and Wimbush 14. Nays-Mesare. Arnim, Allen, Bieman, Foi ter, Hayes, Leslie, Reid and Rodgers-8. So the motion to indefinitely postpone tb farther consideration of the bill was laid upo the table. Twenty-two sections were then passed, aft< which tho Senate adjourned. IN TBS HOUSE, oo Friday, Whipper, from tb Committee on tho Judiciary, aubmittod th following report : Thc Judiciary Committee, to whom was r< ferred a resolution of inquiry os to what lagii lo.tion is necessary lo define duties of escbeatoi and whether an eseheator living in one count can exercise jurisdiction ia another, beg lcav to report that the; have carefully examined th laws of force on the subject in this State, an find them both ample and explicit as to the ap poiotment, jurisdiction and duties of eschea tors.

For further infor? mation reference is made to tho aforemention? ed acts. Brodie introduced thc lolloping resolution, which was adopted : Ki-solotd, The tho Committes on Education be requested to prepare a bill iu accordance with au ordinance passed by tho lato Constitu? tional Convention of South Carolina, author? izing the General Assembly to provide tor ap? propriating the Citadel for educational pur? poses as soou as practicable.

November 14 3mos ?- THE MACHINE, CALLED MAN, IS A very complicated and dolicite one, and ia moro lia? ble to get out of order, and much more difficult to repair, than auy combination of wheels and cranks an 1 levers made by the hands of mau. As a rule, it is tinkered too much, and badly ti nisi od at that. It is often calomelized, narcot'zed, depleted, and oth? erwise misused, when all that it reallv needs is a wholesome tome and restorative like HOS TE TIER'S STOMACH BITTERS to put it in proper trim and keep it so. The stomach is shamefully maltreated. In the firs t place, thc food which its juices are in? tended to dissolve, is too frequently thrown into it hastily, and in a balf-masticatcd condition, in which state thc gastric acid cannot properly act upon it. The result is dyspepsia. Thea comes the doctor, and, finding the digestive organs weak and thc bow? els inert, be proceeds to weaken und paralyze still more with drastic purgativos. These tending-as they always do-to produce a salutary change, he tulls the invalid that medical science can Jo no more for him. Tule, with all due deference, is a m istake one of those mistakes which Talleyrand said were tantamount to crimes. What thc dyspeptic needs is invigoration. Streugthon the stomach with HOS TETTElt'S BIT IER5, and the stomach will strength? en every other part of the human machine, and make it, in common parlance, aa goad as new. Upon the slate of the digestion depend*, ina moisure, the condition ol' thc whole fystem. Now, tho Bitters are the mr.st admirable tonb known. They consist ol' j tho llnost vegotable invigarants an-l restoratives, combined with an unadulterate 1 stimulant. The dyspeptic needs nothing else to effect a euro, except a light, nutritious diet, and a fair amount of exer? cise. Eve J in the abseuce of these lust mentioned occessorics, the tonic and altorativc properties ol thc prepaiaiion will wo.k wonders, enabling the dyspeptic to digest inferior fare with comparative ease, and to maintain a good habit of holy, in spite o? thc drawbacks of a sedentary occupation.
