Wright gave notice o? a bill to regulato tho agencies of insuranco companies not incorpo? rate! in tho State of South Carolina. Mr. Jillson, from tho Committee on tho Re? moval of Political Disabilities, to whom was re? ferred tho potitions of J. S. Linder, J. W. A. Harkness and Dr. C. M. Rivers, reported back the same, with a recommendation that the prayeiS of tho petitioners bo granted, and ac? companied by a couourrontroBOlntion, that tho General Assembly recommend to the Congress of tho United States tho removal of thoir polit? ical disabilities. Ordered for consideration on Monday. Hayne, of tho special committee on the pen? itentiary, submitted tho following report, which was ordered for consideration ou Mon? day : lao spacial committee on tho penitentiary, to whom was referrod tho message ot his Ex? cellency R. iC. S'jott, Governor, rotative to the South Carolina Penitentiary, havo considered the samo, and bog leave to report: That they fully concur with his Excellency that a chango in the penitentiary is necessary to tho protection of tho publio interest. Now that his Excellency hos como to this conclu? sion, they venture to hope that tho chango may bo 'speedily"effected. Upon reference to the "Aot to provide for the government of the South Carolina Penitentiary," passed Septem? ber 23, 1868, second section, it will bo seen the Governor has power to appoint a superintend? ent, by and with tho advice hnd consent of the Scuate. Uv the thirteenth section of said act, tho Qovernor has also power, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, to appoint three directors of the State Penitentiary. Tlioso several officers once appointed have such power*, and aro under such restrictions, that jour committee can but believe a great improvement will speedily take place in tbe affairs of the penitentiary. When his Excel? lency shall have made the appointments, your committee recommend immediate action on the port of the Senate. Till then your com? mittee conceive no action to bo necessary on tho part of the Senate. The bill to organize and govern the militia of the State of South Carolina was taken up for a second reading, and considered by seotions. Quite a large audience gathered ia tho Senato chamber to hear the discussion on this bill. It was known that Senator Leake was reso? lutely opposed to the bill, and, it was reported, would fight it to tho end. 1 append a short synopsis of the speech, which occupied about two hours in delivery. Mr. Leslie moved that the further consider? ation of the bill be indefinitely postponed. Ho carried the bill borne with him last night, but not, be said, like Daniel Webster or Hayne, to Bleep over it, neither did he sleep on it. Ro was not, therefore, prepared to do justice to the subject. He desired to say that of ali mon in this world the most practical are the Yan? kees, and this State government practically is a government that, if it is not Yankee, it is pretty well Yankeeized. It was right, too, be thought, that it should be so. AU there is of progress in this country, all there is of popular advancement and eduoation, has come directly from the North, and he challenged any one to deny it. Mow, thee, the Senate is called upon io pass a bill to organize and govern the militia of South Carolina. They were Bitting there as praotical men, and they meant to be practical. They advertise to be practical, and that is the reason why the party to which most of them belonged had, so far, succeeded. They are a party of progress, a party of knowledge, a party of life, and" a party that, is practical in every sense or the word-s'ow to aotion, slow bo anger, but practical whenever they move. The militia, he contended, could an'y bo called emt, piratically speaking, iu twocontingeuoii-s. atanco^-from co^i^uaat^ms^or^e opposition, ts unable to enforce the law, and the people be some so riotous that be cannot keep the peace, he has under the law the right to read tue riot act, and it he cannot disperse them, then the militia is called out. The second is when the Governor declares martial law in ?ny county iu the State. As to the first case, he would ask any Mend ot the bill if ibero bad arisen a case in the State of South Carolina where the militia could have been legally and properly called out if organized: Perhaps somebody would Bay, "yes they killed a man up in Abbeville." Well, they could net use the militia to arrest that man. They might kill a half dozen up in New? berry, and they ceuld not use the militia to irrest those parties. , lt was, as ho had said before, that there were only two contingencies in which the mil? itia could be used. When conld the Governor leelare martial law ? Not unless the conduct )f the people throughout any locality of the State is such that it is impossible to enforce the la w, and where the civil officers aro pre? vented from discharging their duty. When the people become so riotous and are in such force that the civil officers cannot serve or en? force their writs, then the Governor can de? clare martial law. It cannot be declared when? ever the Governo: pleases, and 1 am certain, said the speaker, that our Governor - or the Gover? nor of any other State would be very careful oi baking any such step unless thero was a case yt real necessity. Up to this time lhere bad been no possible sontingency in which the militia could be used, and if it could not up to this tune when under heaven will they bo called upoi Tor militia duty ? How long will it take to or? ganize the militia, and put it practically inte being? You have got to get tbe men to c?me np and ba enrolled, you have got to get gum and olothing, and then you must havo a Quar term aster-General, and a Surgeon-General whuHj business it is to.heal all tho ailments and somebody else to furntsA all tho uniforms coats, hats and boots, and then you have t< got some one to contract for them. Well, aftei they have done all that sort of business, I asl the "friends ot the bill in what year of the Lore will probably com nonce operations? If n< sases have yet arisen, I ask in wbal other yoai af our Lord they can arise ? I think that the people, and I deeiro tofea: it to the opposition, to tho Democracy of thu State, to the Radioals of this State, and to all not within those two parties, that propose t< lia tu tb the piace of the State after tue last sleet ion, ?nd are persistent m making cover ivar upon reconstruction and the State Gov cr?ment ot South Carolina, that their labors ir :bat direction should cease. We all believe, al fair-minded men believe, that the question o reconstruction was practically settled by Gene ral Grant's election. Whatever there is of evi in tbe present organization of this SUte gov ?rnnient will curry off, and at the next regula: election all the evils they complain of can bi mba tan tia Hy corrected. There are counties ii mis State that bave a very bad reputation whore some have not neted with order, nor ii ho tine interests of all the people. Of rm )wn district. Barnwell, I have a right to sa: ,hat a more peaceable people does not ex st, and not ? singlo case of t: ou? tdo or difficulty has arisen ? Each mat nado a crop, and every one is in a go's? living condition. The prioe of land was ad winced one hundred per. cent. I say, th< minds of the people are directed towards tin future, and to progress, peace and prosperity If there is any portion of the people of Soutl L'arolina, in Newberry, Abbeville or Edgefield tvho are determined to roam over this lani md make it unsafe foi' officers to enforce th laws; if they intend to do as they did in Edge leid tho other day to a magistrate appointe by Governor Scott, who was followed into tn iourthtfuse by four armed men, and wouit li ave been shot but for tho presence of a friend [ say if tho good mon of Edgefleld County d iot rise in iiUeir wi a th to put down that styl >f lawless mon, I promise to vote whatever 1 secessaiy of mon or money to en fore :t the lav [ call upon al) the fair-minded men of th iluto, tho conservativo men of the?tato, th nodorate and the wise men, the men who ha v ill to loso and everything to make, that the iee to >t that peace and order prevails. Let me say right hero that every county pi nm-, every city paper, coming to us tbroug the mails, bring joyful tidings and proofs < mlv.itinitial prosperity throughout the Stat mowing that the good time so often predictc ?nd so long expeoted is near at bond. Tbei ls to-day a more important question than tl right ot suffrage, reconstruction, or organiz lion of the militia. It is tbe question of cat bal and immigr?t ion. The land? all over tl State have increased in value to the utter a bonisnmcnt of AU, even of that time-honor! ii tiz?n, "the oldest inhabitant." The free man has his pocket full of money, and t he whi man is counting his gains, is cheer ft ind all aro brushing away the cobwe that have gathered upon the old i in plo m on of husbandry since the last crop watt laid b Hie plough? ateto the field by sunrise, anet < seem contented and satisfied. THATA th* Ge those counties, travelling all over tho districts. The good people of those counties owo it to themselves to make tho country too hot for sue!) internal scoundrels, and ii' the Slate Con? stable has not power enough, I will vote the lust man and the last dollar to bring those desperadoes to justice, and if we cannot cot enough men hore we will get them from New York or go to Ireland to get the mon. Let ns strengthen the State Constable. We mean thoso desperadoes shall not intorpose or intorfoi o to prevent tho exe? cution of the laws and to threaten officers with their lives. I pray my friends to so act as to foreclose forever tho ia ea that the militia is needed in this State. Let us all resolve and re-resolvo that every man at tho North shall understand that tho people of South Carolina aro, and moan to bo, at peace with tho who'.e world, and that tho Southern States, and South Carolina in particular, is the Alpha and Omega of America. If this policy shall bo sustained, and tho people act with care and caution, two years of euch prosperity as the presont year will givo them moro money than the. know what to do with. Lay this militia bill right on the table. It is a bill to create more officers. It is not a bill to make peace, but a bill to make war. I have never failed iu my predictions, but pass this bill, and if you. get peace in tlriB State I will confess my error. Pass this bill, and if there is a oont of in?noy lett in tho treasury you will b9 compelled lo spend it. You will have a row iu tho State all the time. In fifteen minutes wo cou d pass a measure that would secure peace in the State. I would give the State Conatab'e sufficient force, if it takes all the man in the State, to follow and pursue tho men who are disturbing the peace in the Counties of Edgefield. Abbeville and No wherry ; and if the people of those counties sympathize with that class men and hide and shield them, let them understand that there shall not be a living toing iu all that locality; not a house, tree or anything be left to tell that anybody ever oc? cupied the spot. We can organise a mounted torco, if necessary. If the conservativo peo? ple of those counties do not want this war brought homo to their own doors, let them in good faith support the laws, tho Governor and tho officers ol the government, in a constitu? tional woy. The people may depend upon it that this bill, if it shall thou pass, will pass iu such a modified form that little or no exoeption can be taken to it. I believe it is one of those sort of things that will do to keep, and that the best militia, in my judgment, that we could have, that could be had, is tor this Legislature to pass wise ,\nd just la we. If I was ono of those roaming characters of Edgefield, I could kill every Republican in this State before you could get th J militia or? ganized under this bill. It you want quick work, oner a resolution that the Governorissue a proclamation calling upon ali the fair-mi ided men of Edgefield, Abbeville and Newberry and everywhere, to rally round tho Hag of tho nation, stand by the laws as tkey are made, promising on oar part to enact and maintain buch laws as will operate fairlusnpon all people. The speaker, in conclusion,-eave a graphic description of old militia musters and of their folly. Ho did not want militia in South Caro? lina if it oonld be avoided. They had them once, the pride of the State, and used to boast upon their honor and valor. But General Sherman, in his march, swooped them all up like a ooop of chickens, took them to Hart Isl? and, from whence but few returned to tell what bad been done with them. . _ lu Now York militia regiments aro on a dif? ferent footing. They are partly, political or? ganizations, and the splendor of their eqiiip ^^tte wotd^ban^rupt any^ ^?ona>l?.nla^ui training, andf whiskey in oireHlaiio^lJ^^ don't get the everlastiugest fight before they are dismissed, you can do a great deal moro than I oan. This is a bill of abominations, a jargon, a bill to create offices and not a bill for protec? tion at all. It would turn out nothing but a tax-paying machine, a heavy burden upon the people, and a constant evil in tho State-any? thing but what we really need. Wright followed in reply, and said they de? sired a militia b eaus3 'the experience of the past had taught them .that a militia is neces? sary tor a free State. Ho moved that the mo? tion to indefinitely postpone bo laid on'the table. Mr. Leslie called for the yeas and nays, which were ordered, and are as follows: Yoas-Messrs. Barber, Corbin, Greene, Hoyt, Hayne, Jillson, Lunney, Maxwell, Nash, Rainey, Boss, Swails, Wright and Wunbush 14 Nays-Messrs. Arnim, Allen, Bieman, Fos? ter, Hayes, Leslie, Beid and Rodgers-8. So the motion to indefinitely postpone the further consideration of the bill was laid upon tho table. Twenty-two sections were then passed, after which the Senate adjourned. ly THE HOUSE, OD Friday, Whipper, from tho Committee on the Judiciary, submitted the following report : Tho Judiciary Committee, to whom was re? ferred a resolution of inquiry as to what legis? lation is necessary to define duties of escheator, and whether an eseheator living in one county can exercise jurisdiction in another, heg leave to report that they have carefully examined the laws of force on the subject in this State, and find them both ample and explioit as to the ap? pointment, jurisdiction and duties of eschoa tors. The first section or an act entitled "An act to appoint esoheators and to regulate es? cheats," fifth vol. Statutes at Large, page 47, taken in connection with the first section of an act entitled "An act to amend au act to appoint esoheators and to regulate escheats," sixth vol. Statutes at Large, page 508, provide for the appointment by joint ballot of the Senate and House of Boprosentativos of one escheator for each ot tho distriots of this State, who shall continue in office fonr years, shall execute his office in proper person and not by deputy, and shall give bond with three good sureties for the faithful discharge of tho duties of li io ofiijo. From those acts your committee aro of opinion that no person can exercise the office of an escheator for any county who ua-s not boon re? gularly appointed for that county and entered bond as required by law. For further infor? mation reference is made to the aforemention? ed acts. Brodie introduced the following resolution, which was adopted : Resolved, The the Committed on Education be requested to prepare a bill in accordance with an ordinance passed by the late Constitu? tional Convention of South Carolina, author? izing the General Assembly to provide tor ap? propriating the Citadel for educational par poses, as soon as practicable. Mr. Tondinson introduced the following con? current resolution, which was adopted, and ordered to be sent to the Senate : Resolved, by the Senate, the House of Rep? resentatives concurring, That a joint com? mittee oi two on the part of the House, and - on tho part of the Senato be appointed to in? vestigate and report upon all matters connected with the management of the State Lunatic Asylum; to this end they shall have power to examine the books and records of said asylum, send for persons And papers, and to examino witnesses under oath, TUB SENATE, to-day, Saturday, wore engaged in Execntive session. IN THK HOUSE, Mr. Tomlinaon, from the Committee on the Removal of Political Disa? bilities, reported favorably on a Sonate reso? lution for the remova'. of the political disabili? ties of B. T. Atkinson, of Georgetown County. On motion of George Lee, tho report was adopted, and the r?solution concurred in and ordered to bo returned to tho Senate. Also, the following concurrent resolution, which was adopted and ordered to bo sent fo tho Senate: Resolved, by tb?

November 14 3moe 49" THE MACHINE, CALLED MAN, IS A very complicated and dellc ito one, and is mo re ha? ble to got out of order, and much more difficult te repair, than aay combination ef wheels and cranks ou i lovers made by the hands of man. As a rule, it ls tinkered too mach, and badly tiukeied at that. It is often calomeltzed, narcotized, depleted, and oth? erwise misused, when ali that it really needs is a wholesome tonic and restorative Uko HOS TETTER'S STOMACH BITTEBS to put it in proper trim and keep it so. The stomach is shamefully ra tltreatf d. In the firs t place, the food which ita juices are In? tended to dissolve, is too frequently thrown into it hastily, and in a half-masticated condition, in which state the gastric acid cannot prdperly act upon it. The result is dyspepsia. Then comes the doctor, and, finding the digestive organs weak and the bow? els inert, ho proceeds to weaken and paralyze still more with drastic purgatives. These tending-AS they always do-to produce a salutary change, be tells the invalid that medical seienco caa do no m ore fer him. This, with all duo deference, is a m istake one of those mistakes which Talleyrand said wore tantamount to crimes. What the dyspeptic needs ls Invigoration. Strengthen the stomach with HOS TETTEB'S BIT i EBB, and the stomach will strength? en every oilier part of tho human machine, and make it, in common parlance, aa good as new. Upon the state of the digestion depends, in a meisu re, the condition of the whole system. Now. the Bitters aro tho most admirable tonio known. They consist of the finest vegetable lnvigorante and restoratives, combined with an unod alterate 1 stimulant. The dyspeptic needs nothing else to effect a euro, except a light, nutritious diet, and a fair amount of exer? cise. Evea in the absence bf these last mentioned accessories, tho tonio and alterativa properlies of the preparation will work wonders, enabling the dyspeptic to digest inferior faro with comparative ease, and to maintain a good habit of body, in ?pita of the drawbacks of a ?danlexy occupation.
