..A COMPROMISE WITH VEKGINLV-THE CONSTITC
HON TO BE ADOPTED IN A MODIFIED FORM
GENERAL GELLEM ON THE MISSISSIPPI CON?
STITUTION.
WASHINGTON, January 15.-After many con
ferences between the Virginia Committee and
its individual members, and the Judiciary
Committee of the Senate and members of the
Senate and House, it seems pretty well under?
stood that the following definite arrangement
has been substantially agreed to : Following
the precedents in the Missouri Compromise;
and the proceedings upon tho admission of
?egon, Eansas and Nebraska, a bill will
prepared authorizing the admission of Vir?
gin ia on the adoption of the proposed consti?
tution with certain obnoxious clauses in regard j j
to disfranchisement, the test oath, and proba?
bly other objectionable features stricken out,
When this bill is passed, it is believed that it
will be followed by an amnesty bill, either uni
versal or with very few exceptions, to take ef?
fect upon the ratification of the constitution
It is understood that this adjustment meets
the "approval of Qeneral Grant, General Scho?
field, and a large number of the most promi- | \
cent members of both Houses.
General Gillern has concluded his testimony
before the Reconstruction Committee. He at- | \
tributes the defeat of the constitution in Mis?
sissippi to its proscriptive features. The white | (
people were nearly all opposed to it, and many
of the colored people, whose generosity was ap?
pealed to, voted against it. General Gillern
thinks that if the constitution were to bo re?
submitted to the people with the understand?
ing that proscription was to be regulated by
the reconstruction laws, the constitution | |
would be adopted by a large majority.
Assistant Surgeon M. L. R?ther, died at the

priating $12,000,000 for tho enterprise, wes re?

being shipped from St. Louis to New York via
New Orleans at seventeen cents less per bush?
el than via Ohicaco, and to Liverpool at twen?
ty cents per bushel less than via New York,
and in one-third less time. The bill was re?

its defeat for this season.

TUE JtANJC OF THE STA TE.
Tbc Proceedings in Columbia- State of j
tne Ca6e-Remarks of Messrs. Rarne,
Campbell and Corbin.
[FROM OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT, j
COLUMBIA, S. C., January 14, 18C9.-The
State ex relacione tho Attorney-General of th e
State of South Carolina vs. tho President and
Directors of the Bank of thc Stato of South
Carolina.
The above coutroversy is nearing its close.
Messrs. Haync and Campbell, counsel for the
defendants, arrived here this morning, having
been notified by telegraph that Messrs. Cham?
berlain and Corbin, tho attorneys for tho State,
would at ten o'clock to-day move t'jat a day
bo fixed for the hoaxing of tho ciscbafore the
Supreme Court.
I can best describe tho situation by saying
that ,:its all a muddle." First, Judge Willard,
in chambers, refused to grant tho writ of man?
damus to compel the president and directors of |
the bank to deliver up to Governor ft. K. Scott
all the real and personal estate and other as?
sets c f that corporation. Thereupon the at?
torneys ior the State excepted to the ruling of |
his Honor, for error in law, and carried the
caso lo tho Supremo Court. Nex ", exception
was taken to Judgo Willard himself, on tho
?round that having heard tho cause at cham?
bers he had presided in an inferior court, and ]
according to the constitution was thereby dis?
qualified from hearing the caso on tho supreme
bench. On the assumption that this view was
correct, the Governor appointed W. S. Word?
ing, one of thc tax commissioners, to sit on tho
court in place of Judge Willard, and J. J.
Wright, tho colored senator, was dispatched to
Beaufort to bring Judge Woriing, but return?
ed tc day with the announcement that bo could
not come. The Governor then telegraphed for
Judgo R. B. Carpenter, at Orangeburg.
Such was the condition ol' affairs at the open?
ing of the court this morning. Present-Chiof
Justice Mose? and Associate Jus tico H?ge.
Judge Moses made an explanatory statement
thal this case was docketed without prejudice
for the 22d day of D2Combcr, huton that day
the court announced tho conclusion that it
would hear no case on tho docket. Subse?
quently the caunsel for plaintiffs moved to have
a day fixed for the hearing, but tho court de?
clined on the ground that council for the de?
fendants had not beoti notified, but, on tho
contrary, had beon inforniodby bira of the de?
termination not to take up auy case. Tho
court, however, decided to hear the motion to
take up to-day. In tho absenca of both Judges
Wording and Carpanter, ha would postpone
the case until to-morrow morning at ten
D'clock.
Judgo Hogo expressed tho opinion that
fudge Willard would ?ike to heir tuo question,
md that it should bo argued b.'fore a full
aeson.
Mr. Hayne said that objection would ba
nade to any other than tho regular Supreme
Sourt, consisting of the jndiros elected by the
Legislature. That vas the proper tribunal to
3it in judgment on the case, and they would
?mphaticaliy oppose its being* hoard by any
judge commissioned specially for tue occasion
JV the Governor. According to the constitu
ion there was no disqualification of Judge
?Villard, and consequently thero waa no ground
br the appointment of a special judgo. This
vas the fii.-;t time that the point had boon
nade before the Supreme Court of South Caro?
ma, and it was not raised captiously, but in
food faith. Ought not such a question lo be
letermined by the full bench, and ought not
radge Willard himself to participate ic an ad
udicatiou that would bind tho court as long as
t had an existence ? None of the disqualify
ng clauses mentioned in the constitution
:ould be considered as applying to Judge Wil
ard, except that which rolers to a judge who
ios presided in an inferior court. In neither
etter nor spirit could that provision apply in
MB case. Not only had Judge Willard not sat
n an inferior court, but he had sat in no court
?. all. As one of the Judges ol the Supremo
Jourt, and by special authority of the Legisla?
ture, he simply sat in chambers, which was a
rery different thing from presiding in an in?
ferior court.
'1 he object of tho Legislature, as indicated
by tho provision of the constitution alluded to,
tvas to prevent judges, elevated trom the Cir?
cuit to the Supreme Court, and lawyers, who
might be elected to that bench, from presid?
ing in cases on which they had been previously
engaged. This was eminently proper. Bot if
it was intended to preclude jud :es empowered
io hear motions at chambers fr. .m sitting in
the Court of Appeals when the subject matter
jf thOBO motions carno beforo that court, tho
practical effect would be that in order to se?
cure the appointment of a special judgo to de?
cide a particular cause, the counsel would only
hove to make a motion in chambers to got rid
ai the obnoxious judgo upon the boned.
Tho Chief Justice said he agreed with Mr.
Mayne that this was a question which must be
board by thc Supremo Court, bocauso it was a
quostion which affoctcd tho quili?catiou of
ane of its members.
Mr. Coibin observed that if it was solemnly
intended to raiso this point, tho court, as thon
sitting, was tho Supreme Court, and competent
Lo render a decision. Two judges constituted
i quorum. associate counsel and himself
(vere ready to meet tho issue, and it Aas his
Jesirc to proceed at once.
Mr. Campbell quoted thc imcluding passage
af Justice Willard s decision : "As I may be
called upon at some future time, as a member
af tho Supreme Court, to pass upon the quas
tion," &c, as a proof that he expected to bo
called apon, and expressly reserved his viows
in anticipation o; such a contingency. Supposo
thc court should go ou now; they were bound
to hear according to law, and to givo judgment
upon every point made in tho brief.
It stands out conspicuously, Mr. Campbell
said, teat by tho proposed arrangement wo are
to bo deprived of tho voice of a judge-of
Judge Willara-as to a violation of tho Consti?
tution of the United Stales. If your Honors
mero to overrule his decision at chambers, and
arder tho mandamus, what would become of a
d?cision upou a point raised as to thc consti?
tutionality of thc law. Your Honors can soe
tho embarrassment in whuh it puts the caso
when it deprives us of tho judge before whom
we were carried by tho relator himself. Is it
uot, thercforo, manifest that you cannot go on
with an appointed judgo, beciuso voa dpprivo
na of that which wo havo a right to-tho judg?
ment of Judge Willird, who baa withheld his
ar inion on the main qucHlion, und only given
ois opinion upon tuo minor question involved.
The Chief Justice renurkod I hat if ti ie ques?
tion as to tho qualification ot tho judge wis to
bo heard, it ought to be in tho pres?nos ot a
fall boi ch, and that Judgo Willard must be
Tkdvisod of tho fact. Tho clerk would thcre
foro telegraph to tho judgo iu Charleston, and
tho caso, aland over until lo-niorrow. at ten
Ct'clook. Ho said that bc had not yet read thc
brief, but I'rum what he beard this was a writ
ol emir from :i Judge at Chainbora io tho Su?
preme Court. Unwilling to render a dc-isiou
unless certain that jurisdiction was conferred
by the law, ho desired that counsel should bo
hear?: un thc question whether, under tho Con?
stitution and trio act of tho LegL- !'Uuro. a writ
ot error lies to (ho Supreme Court from a
Judgo at. Chambers. Ho Ua'l no opinion upon
tho subject. If ii. w.is a casu* om ssus of the
Lejrwlawre, ot courao tho court waa not re?
sponsible..
The Chief Justice also obsorved that ho de
eirod very much that theso motions aliould not
bo made before tho members of the Supremo
Court. Such wa^ formerly the practice, but
subsequently abandoned, tho e?ecl beiug to
raise the verv question^ now before the court.
A judse ought not to put himself iu a position
in which he would bo disqualified from render?
ing a decision. Thero being, under tho now
regime, a resident judge in cvory district, thero
waa no longer any reason why these motions
should bo modo beioro anv member of tho Su?
preme Court in Chambers, and he hoped thal
members of the bar would desist from so
doing.
Tho court ?.hen adjourned. F. G. DE F.

-The decision ot the French Courts that

-About the insanity of the murderer Count
Chorinsky, the following details are published
in German papers. Upon reaching the fort- !
reba of Rosenburg, where the Count was to be
imprisoned for twenty years, be was subj :c ted
to the closest surveillance, but for the first two
weeks nothing special was noticed in his con- :
duct, except that he bore his fate with a rather
surprising gayety, and dwelt nearly all the
time upon his love for the licentious Mme.
Hottowy. At first this idea and his eccentric
talkativeness were bolievtd to bo feigned, until
unmistakable symptoms of insanity were added
to thom. Having written to Ina defender to
send him a blue dress coat with golden
buttons, he asked tho commander of the
fortress to have the door-knob and hooks
in his collar gilded. The commander's re?
fusal to comply with his request caused 1
Count Chorinsliy to fly into a towering passion,
Soon afterward he said he was the Messiah;
and one day, after making a terrible noise and
smashing a window, ho recoived the command?
er in a state of nakedness, having wrapped Only
a piece of carpet round bis shoulders. Thus
ho stepped close up to tho commander, and
stretching out his bleeding hand toward him,
exclaimed, "I am tho Messiah, kiss my
wounds." Another time he shouted lor sev?
eral hours, "There ls no God; there are only
three goddesses, tho Virgin Mary, Mme. Hot?
towy and my sister Pepi 1" Ho paBscd his
time for several weeks in nonsensical dec?
lamations and writing oudless letters. Fi?
nally, he thought ho was commander of tho
fortress, and commenced beating the senti?
nels becaiiHO thoy refused to make daily re?
ports to him io writing. He WOB appeased,
however, by a pioco of paper being given to
him every evening. Toward tho close of Oc?

Little Things in Farming.
The whole succoss of a farmer hinges opon
timely attention to little things. This mainly
makes the difference between thrift and pov?
erty. The philosophy of success is expressed
in the old adage, "Por want of a naU a shoe
was lost; for waut of a shoe a horse was lost;
for want of a horse a man was lost." It is a
little, thing to keep accounts of the pecuniary
transactions upon the farm. A half hour Sat?
urday evening would enable farmers to know
just how they stand with the world. Yet we
suspect half the mon who cultivate the soil
never make an entry iu a book : and for want
of this the accounts mn up fearfully at the
store, and many articles of luxury are pur?
chased for which they are unable to pay at' tho
end of tho year. Debts accumulate, the farm
is mortgaged, and hnally lost for thc want of a
little paper and ink. It is a little thing to put
up a tool in its place when not in use. Yet
many have no tool-house, or place of shelter
for any implement or vehicle. Things are'left
whero they were last used-the plow in the
field, the cart in thc yard, the chains in the
stable, the harness in tho wood-house, the axe
at the woodpile, and the rakes at the corn
crib. Many do not even house the expensive
implements they ha ve bought; and reapers and
threshers are treated like old ploughs and har?
rows. Tbo parts made of iron and steel grow
rusty, and the wood decays.
A machine that is good for thirty years with
proper caro, is used up in five by abuse, lt is
a very little thing to turn a nut that is loose,
yet for tho want of tho tightening the nut is
lost, the bolt comes out, and the loaded wagon
breaks down on the way to market, and a whole
day for min and team is lost. It is a little
thing to keep a horse properly groomed, yet
for want of clean fetlocks the skin cracks, aud
the horse is lame, and the owner loses the use
of bim for months or weeks. Ventilation is a
small affair, yet for the want of it the health
of stock in stables suffer severely, and disease
Bets in. It is a small affair to provide good
seed at the beginning ot the j ear, but the
whole success of the season depends upon it.
It is an easy thing to deal fairly with your
neighbors, and make a name that is better
than "precious ointment.'* Many cheat on
small occasions, do not got what they Bell, and
get a reputation for meanness that stands in
the way of .their success.
SAVING MAJ!CEE.
Every man of common sense must admit
that the rales to be adopted for a rational sys?
tem of taviug manure, must be based on the
knowledge of this process; and we may lay
down tho following rules in relation to it :
1st. The ground selected for the disposition
of stable manure should be even, in order to
permit the equal distribution of the manure
on it, and thus secure the heap uniformity in
thickness. Only in this case the process of
pu1 refaction will proceed regularly in every
part of the heap, and its body will prove to be
a homogeneous character.
2d. Tho manure should bc protected against
tho direct rays of the sun, in order to prevent
thc too rapid advance of tho putrefactive pro?
cess, and a consequent generation of heat
which will incur a considerable loss of ammo?
nia. Practical experiments made with equal
iveighlB of stable manure oxposod to the son,
md with that under cover, show the effect of
the latter to bo, within a certain time, about
twenty-five per cent, greater than the former.
3d. The manure heap should bo kept mode?
rately moist; if it be too dry. the degree of heat
then produced will volatilize ammonia; if too
wet, an acid humus will be formed, which,
being soluble in water, acts very injuriously
sn vegetation. In order best to attain this end,
the ground should be slightly inclined, and al
the fluid that runs from the heap be collected
in a pit, and from tims to time scattered over
the heap._ _
GENEHAL GRANT'S CABINET.-Tho gossipers
md Cabinet-makers arc determined not to
permit General Grant to solect his own Cabi?
net, but have prepared for him any number
sf seta. All he has to do is to signify which
lie will take, and it will be delivered at short
notice. The following is the material which
is to be found in the Cabinet sets :
Secretary of State-Edwin M. Stanton, Wm:
M. Evarts, Charles Sumner, J. Lothrop Mot?
ley, Charles Francie Adame, Wm. Pitt Fea
jenden.
Secretary of the Treasure-Geo. 8. Boutwell,
David A. Wells, E. fi. Washbnrne, Edwin D.
Morgan, John Sherman, O. P. Morton, Reuben
E. Fenton.
Secretary of War-John M. Schofield, Henry
Wilson, Bobeit C. Sehenck, Richard Yates,
John Covode, Simon Cameron, Joseph R.
Hawley.
Secretary of the Navy-Commodore Porter,
Admiral Farragut, Andrew G. Curtin, M. 0.
Roberts, John A. Griswold, Hannibal Hamlin,
J. A. J. Creswell, Ben Egleston.
Secretary of tho Interior-benjamin F. Wade,
E. B. Washburue, Horace Greeley, John Bid?
well, John M. Ashley, Zach. Chandler, Senator'
Ramsey.
Postmaater-General-Wm. B. Allison, Horace
Greeley, Samuel Galloway, Wm. Donnison,
John Covode, Governor Ward, George W. Ju?
lian.
Attorney-General-General Rawlings, James
F. Wilson, Wm. M. Evarts, Matthew H. Car?
penter, F. T. Freyhngbaueen, Edwards Pierre?
point. _ _
THE LAST SLATE.-The last slate for Grant's
Cabinet, according to tho Baltimore Gazette,
is as follows :
Secretary of Slate-Stanton, hailing from
Pennsylvania.
Sccrotary ot tho Treasury-Wells, hailing
from Massachusetts.
Secretary of the Interior-Wade, hailing
from Uh io!
Secretary of War- Rawlings, -.
Secretary of tho Navy-Morgan, hailing
from New York.
Postmaster-General-Couucsd, hailing from
California.
Altornoy-Goncral-Carpenter, hailing from
Wisconsin.
In respect to Stanton, tho rumor IR that tho
Cabinet cannot be made up without him. He
himself, 1 learn, would pretor the Bench, but
the antagonism existing in Massachusetts,
and thc determination of Grant to appoint
Wells, have forced the State Department on
Now England. Difficulties exist also m Penn?
sylvania, which aro otherwise irreconcilable.
As to tho Navy Department, it is possible that
Fenton or Greeley may be appointed, depen?
dent upou tho result of the senatorial election.
COTTON AND Dax GOODS.-The New York Fi?
nancial Chroniole of Saturday says:
Considering the Beason of the year, the dry
goods busin-.su is unusually largo, though
rather vt a speculative nature. Agente find
no difficulty iu closing out their entire stock at
the ruling Bgurea, while jobbers are receiving
considerable oiders from tho.interior. Prices
of sheetings and prints huve boon and even
now aro very low, it the raw material is to be
maintained at present rates, and there appears
to be no prospect of any considerable dec.me in
cotton until thero is mitten i liv uiminisbed con?
sumption in Manchester, and an improvement
in thc stock at Liverpool. BesidesV tho largo
short interest at prices much below present
rates, must havo a tendency io Iteup ibo market
firm. Sales for delivery this monti? havo
boen roado, both boro and at Liver?
pool which must be covered, and if
they aro ot tho- oxtont claimed, may continuo
to impart considerable excitement to tho mar?
ket, especially while ibo S ?utli is sending for?
ward or era to purchase, having confidence in
much higher ratos, b ised on reduced estim?tes
ol i he crop. Tho buai.iess for forward deliv?
ery has been quito limited this week until to?
day, tho total reaching only about 1600 l?ales
(all tow middling), thero being very lew Boilers
even at t?.o high rates obtained, Hut. to-day
there have boen further sales amounting to
1300 bales. Wo noto natos of 450 bales for
February at 26hc. and 150 bales for March at
same prico; 300"bales for February or March,
100 for January or February, and 100 bales for
February at 26c; and 50 oa.os for each Febru?
ary and March at 264c. and to-day 400 bales for
February i\ud 200 bales for January at 265c,
and 1200 bales terms private.
FEMALE LABOB.-A rather novel sight was
witnessed on ono of tho wharves at Alexan?
dria, Va., lost week. About eighteen colored
women who were gathering chips there were
told if they would unload a bargo wit? a cargo
of wood, then lving thero, they might have the
bark. They immediately set to work, and, it is
said, did more work in a little time than the
same number of men of their own color were
ever known to do.
