TION TO BE ADOPTED IN A MODIFIED FORM GENERAL GILLEM 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 tho following definite arrangement has been substantially agreed to : Following the precedents in the Missouri Compromise, and the proceedings upon the admission of Oregon, Kansas and Nebraska, a bill will be prepared authorizing the admission of Vir? ginia on the adoption of tho proposed consti? tution with certain obnoxious clauses in regard to disfranchisement, the test oath, and proba? bly other objectionable features stricken out. When "this bin 1B passed, it is believed that iii 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 General Qrant, General Scho? field, and a large number of the moat promi? nent members of both Houses. General Gillern hae concluded bis testimony before the Reconstruction Committee. He at? tributes the defeat of the constitution in Mis? sissippi to its proscriptive features. The white people wero 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 tue constitution were to be re? submitted ta 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 Naval Hospital at Resaca, Georgia. CONGRESSIONAL. ELIGIBILITY OF THE PRESIDENT-A TWELVE MIL? LION DOLLAR SCHEME. WASHINGTON, January 15.-IN THE SENATE, the Jndioiary Committee reported adversely to the joint resolution, making the President and vice-President ineligible for a second term. After other unimportant business, the dis? cussion of the Suo Murphy case was resumed, and after a long debate the matter, with va? rious propositions and amendments, was re? committed without a division. The Senate then adjourned to Monday. IN T$E HOUSE, the Election Committee re? ported'that Christy was elected from tho Sixth Congressional District of Georgia, but wa3 disqualified, having voluntarily aided the en? emy; A number of private bills were reported The bill for the Niagara Falls Canal, appro? priating $12,000,000 for the enterprise, WAS re? sumed.

The bill was re? ferred to a committee, which ls tantamount to its defeat for this season. Adjourned to Monday. EUR O VE. DISTURBAN CES AT TORTOSA-TEN THOUSAND AD? DITIONAL TROOPS FOB CUBA.

FROM THE STATE CAPITAL. The Abbeville Committee-Tho I tegul ob? lation of Insurance Companies-Suer? Ill's Returns-General Proceedings. [FROM OUB OWN COBBESPONDENT.] COLOMBIA, January ll. - The committee of citizeus of Abbeville, appointed under a reso? lution adopted at a public meeting at that place, called ou the Governor last eveniDg, and had a long conversation with him relative to altair.-) in Abbeville. Thc committee consisted Messrs. R. A. Fair, Dr. J. W. Hearst, A. C. Haw I horne and James McCashn. There was very little of importance done in either branch of the General Assembly to-day. The Senate was in executive session, and the House had a long, tedious debate over tho bill to establish a new judicial and election dis? trict, to be called Aiken. Previous to going into executive session, a long discussion also took placo in the Sonate on a bill to altor and amend tho criminal law, which finally passed its second reading, slightly amended, and was ordered to bo engrossed for a third reading. Wright introduced a bill to regulate.tho agen? cies of insurance companies not incorporated iu tho State of South Carolina. The bill requires any agent of such insur? ance companv to have a license from the Comp? troller-General. Betoro the license can be issued tho agent must deposit with the Comp? troller-General, to bo filed in his office, a certi? fied copy of the charter of tho company for which he is acting as agent, accompanied by a warrant of appoiniment signed by the presi? dent and secretary. A statement of the liabilities and assets of the company must also be pub? lished. In caso the-Comptroller General be? comes satisfied of the insolvency of a company, he shall refuse license to its agent or agents and withdraw any license already made. Wright, made a report of the Committee on tho Judiciary on a bill to regulato and eniorce the enclosuro of tarms. The report recom? mends that as tho law of the State on the sub? ject already meets tho requirements in such cases, the bill be laid on tho table. Swails, from tho Committee on Railroads, to whom was leferred a bill to incorporate tho ^.?4VVatare?#nd North Carolina Railroad Compa? ny," reported hack the barn e. with a recom? mendation that the biU do pass. Ordered for consideration to-morrow. Mr. Leslie obtained the unanimous consent of the Senate to introduce the following: Whereas, By the laws of South Carolina sheriffs have been entitled to collect from the State large sums of money for returning tax executions nulla bona, and that said sheriffs are now exceedingly busy making such returns to the great prejudice of the Treasury of the State; therefore, be it Resolved, by the Senate of the State of South Carolina, the House of Representatives con? curring. That the Treasurer of the State of South Carolina is hereby forbidden from paying any Bums of money whatever on ac? count of such nulla bona returns. In case the Treasurer shah, in pursuance of this resolu? tion, refuse to pay such nulla bona accounts when presented by the sheriff, such sheriff (or sheriffs) is hereby relieved from thc five per cent, penalty for refusing or neglecting to make such return. The House sent to the Senate a message that a bill to authorize the Comptroller-General to audie the accounts of the Commissioners and Managers. of Elections, which originated in the Senate', had been laid on the table by that body. Mr. Purvis reported a bill to incorporate the Rocky River Baptist Church, in the County of Anderson, and recommended certain amend? ments. Read the first time, and ordered to lie over for a second reading. Also, favorably, on the following bills, with certain amendments : A bill to incorporate the Wilson Bridge Com? pany. A hill to establish tho Mount Pleasant and Sullivan's island Ferry Company. A bill to in cor poi ato the Lake Swamp Navi? gation Company of Horry County. ' - A Senate bill (which bad been recommitted) to ratify, confirm and amend the charter of Charleston (S. C.) Mining and Manufacturing Company. A bill to incorporate the Ashley Bridge Com? pany. Tho b?T was ordered to lie over for a second reading. DoLarge, from the Committee on Ways and Means, to whom wits referred a Senate bill to authorize the Comptroller- General to audit the accounts of Commissioners and Managers of Elect ons, recommended that the bill be laid on the table, and the House bill be taken. The bi!! was ordered to lie over for a second reading. The Speaker laid before the House a memo? rial of citizens in behalf of the various unfin? ished lines of railroads within its limits. Re? ferred to the Committee on Railroads. The following were introduced : A bill to punish persons violating Section 8, Article XIV, of the Constitution of the United States. A bill to regulate the charges of railroad oom panics tor passonsers in thia State. The account of J. Rice Rogers, Sheriff of Union County, against the State, waa referred to the Committee on Claims. Mr. B. James obtained leave of absence for three days. The House proceeded to the consideration of a bill lo establish a new judieial and election county to be known as Aiken County, and to define the limits and boundaries of the same. The bill was pot upon its second reading. W. J. McKinlay moved to strike out the enact? ing clause of the bilk Ranster moved to postpone the considera? tion of the bill, and make it the special or? der for the fourth Wednesday in November, 1870. Mr. Purvis moved, as an amendment, that the further consideration of the bill be made the special order for the first Monday in De? cember, 18?9. While ihe House was under the operation of the" previous question, several motions to ad? ieu rn had been made and ruled out of order by ihe Chair. Ranster called for the reading of Rulo 41 of the House, after which be appealed from thc decision of the Chair, and the appeal was sustained by a vote? on division, of yeas, 21; nays, 87. On motion, the House adjourned. THE VnmiwtA CoNSTmmo*?.~-Tb.e members of the Virginia Conservative Suffrage-Amnesty delegation have bad a pleasant and satisfac? tory interview with Judge Trumbull, Mr. Fessenden and other leading Republicans. There is a general desire to roach some ar? rangement, and it is agreed by alt that th? Underwood constitution is not flt to bo accept? ed a? the organic law; but there ia nd agree? ment yet as to the details of the coautor plan. There is authority for the statement that Mr. Washburn, Judge Trumbull, General Butler and many other influential gentlemen are in favor of a settlement upon the basia of impar? tial auftrage and universal amnesty.

[FBOM OUB SPECIAL COBBE8PONDENT.] COLOMBIA, S. C., January 14, 18G9.-The State ex rckwone thc Attorney-General of the State ol South Carolina vt>. tho President and Directora of the Bank of tho State or South Carolina. The above controversy is nearing its close. Messrs. Hayno and Campbell, couusol for the defendants, arrived hero ?this morning, having been notifloJ by telegraph that. Messrs. Cham? berlain and Corbin, tho attoinoys tor tho State, would at ten o'clock to-day move f iat a day bo fixed for the hoaxing ol' tho caso boforc tho Supromc Court. I can boat describe tho situation by saying that '-He all a mnd?'e." First, Judge Willard, in chambers, refused to gnu? thc wv.' of man? damus to compcl the president and directors of the bank to deliver up to Governor B. K. Scott all the real and personal estate and other as? sois cf that corporation. Thereupon the at? torneys for the Stato excepted to tho ruling of his Honor, for error in law, and carried the case to the Supreme Court. Nex1, exception was taken to Judge Willard himself, on tho ground that having heard tho cause at cham? bers he had presided in au infciior court, and according to tho coustitution was thereby dis? qualified from hearing tho case on tho supromo bench. On tbe assumption that this view was* correct, tho Govornor appointed W. S. Word? ing, one of tho tax commissioners, to sit oh tho court in place of Judge Willard, and J. J. Wright, tho colored senator, was dispatched to Beaufort to bring Judge Wor ling, but return? ed tc day with the announcement that he could not come. The Governor then telegraphed for Judge B. B. Carpenter, at Orangebarg. Such was the condition of affairs at tbe open? ing of the court this morning. Present-Chief Justice MOBBS and Associate Justice H?ge. Judge Moses made an explanatory statement that this case was dookotod without prejudice for the 22d day of December, but on that day the court announced the conclusion that it would hoar no case on the docket. Subse? quently the counsel for plaintiffs moved to have a day fixed for the hearing, but the court de? clined on the ground that council for tho de? fendants had not been notified, but, on the contrary, had been informed by bim of the de? termination not to take np any case. The court, however, deaided to hear the motion to take up to-day. In thc absence of both Judges Wording and Carpenter, he would postpone tho case until to-morrow morning at teu o'clock. Judge H?ge expressed tho opinion that Judge Willard would like to hear tho question, and that it should bo argued b?fore a full bench. Mr. Hayne said that objection would bo made to auy other than the router Supreme Court, consisting of tho judged elected by the Legislature. That was the proper tribunal to sib m judgment on the case, and they would emphatically -oppose its being heard by any {'ud^a commissioned s^uoiuJly ?or the occasion- - >y the Governor. According to the constitu? tion there was no disqualification of Judge Willard, and consequently there was no ground for the appointment of a special judge. This was the first time that the point had been made before the Supreme Court of South Caro? lina, and it was not raised captiously, but in Sood faith. Ought not such a question to be etermined by the full bench, and ought noe Judge Willard himself to participate in an ad? judication that would bind tbe court as long as it had an existence ? None of the disqualify? ing clauses mentioned in the constitution could be oohsidered as applying to Judge Wil? lard, exoept that which refers to a judge who has presided in an inferior court. In neither letter nor spirit conld that provision apply in this case. Not only had Judge Willard not sat in an inferior court, but he had sat in no court at all. As one of the Judges of the Supreme Court, and by special authority of the Legisla? ture, he simply sat in chambers, whioh was a very different thing from presiding in an in? ferior court. Ihe object of the Legislature, as indicated by the provision of the constitution alluded to, was 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 oases on whioh they had been previously engaged. This was eminently proper. Bat if it was intended to preclude judies empowered to hear motions at chambers from sitting in the Court of Appeals whon the subject matter of those motions came before that court, the practical effect would be that in order to se? care the appointment of a special judge to de? cide a pai ticular cause, the counsel would only have to make ? motion in oh ambers to get rid of the obnoxious judge upon the bench. The Chief Justice said he agreed with Mr. Hayne that this was a question which must be heard by the Supreme Court, because it was a question whioh affeoted the qualification of one of its members. Mr. Corbin observed that if it was solemnly intended to raise this point, the court, as then sitting, was the Supreme Court, .and competent to render a decision. Two judges constituted a quorum. His associate counsel and himself Sere ready to meet the issue, and it was his esire to proceed at once. Mr. Campbell quoted the concluding passage of Justice Willard's decision : "As I may be called noon at some future time, as a member of the Supreme Court, to pass upon the ques? tion," &c, as a proof that he expected to be called upon, and expressly reserved his views in anticipation of suoh a contingency. Suppose the court should go on now; they were bound to hear according to law, and to give judgment upon every point made m the brief. It Stauda out conspicuously, Mr. Campbell said, that by tho proposed arrangement we are to be deprived of the voice of a judge-of Judge Willard-as to a violation of the Consti? tution of the United States. If your Honors were to overrule his decision at chambers, and order tibe mandamus, what would become of a decision upon a point raised as to the consti? tutionality of the law. Tour Honor J can see the embarrassment in wbioh it puts the case when it deprives us of the judge before whom we were carried by the relator himself. Is it not. therefore, manifest that you cannot go on with an appointed judge, because you deprive us of that which we have a right to-the judg? ment of Judge Willard, who has withheld his opinion on the main question, and only given his opinion upon the minor question involved. The Chief Justice remarked that if the ques? tion as to the qualification of the j ad so ?*? ?o be heard, lt ought to bo in the presence of a full bench., and that Judge Willard mast be advised of tbe fact. The clerk would there? fore telegraph to tho judge In Charleston, and the case stand over until to-morrow, at ten o'clock. He said that he had not yet reed the brief, but- from what be heard this was a writ of error from a Judge at Chambers to the Su? preme Court. Unwilling to render a decision unless certain that jurisdiction was conferred by the law. be desired that counsel should be heard on the question whether, ander the con? stitution and the (tot of the Legislature, a writ of error lies to the Supreme Court from a Judge at Chambers. He had-no opinion upon the subject. If it waa a casu* om ssus of tho Legislature, of the court was not re ^The Chief Justice also observed that he de? sired very much that these motions should not be made before the mesabers of the Supreme Court. Bach was formerly the practice, but subsequently abandoned, the effect being to raise tue ver? questions now before the court. A judge ought not to pat himself in a position in which he would be disqualified from render? ing a decision. There being, under the new r?gime, ?- resident judge in every district, there was no longer any reason why these motions should be mada before any member of the Su? preme Court iu Chambers, and he hoped that members of Ute bar would desist from so doing. The court then adjourned. F. G. BE F. - Baron Bris?e receives tea thousand franca ra year for publishing daily bills of fare m Gi Width's paper.

It will be my turn next!" -About the insanity of the murderer Count Chorinsky, the following details ure published in German papers. Upon re oohing the fort? ress of Rosenburg, where the Count was to be imprisoned for twenty years, he was subjected 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 gayoty, and dwelt nearly all the time upon his love for the licentious Mme. Hottowy. At first this idea and his eccentric talkativeness wore believed to be feigned, until unmistakable symptoms of insanity were added to them. Having written to his defender to send him a blue dress coat with golden buttons, he asked the commander of the fortress to have she door-knob and hooks in his cellar gilddd. The commander's re? fusal to comply with his request caused Count Chorinsky 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, he received the oomuiand er in a state of nakedness, having wrapped only a pieoe of carnet round his shoulders. Thus he stepped close up to the commander, and stretching out his bleeding hand toward him, exclaimed, "I am the Messiah, kiss my wounds." Another timo he shouted tor sev? eral hours, "There is no God; there are only three goddopses, the Virgin Mary, Mme. Hot? towy and my sister Pepi I" He passed bis time for several weeks in nonsensical dec? lamations and writing endless letters. Fi? nally, he thought he waa commander of the fortress, and commenced beating the senti? nels because they refused to make daily re? ports to him in writing. He was appeased, however, by a pieoe "of paper being gi von to him every evening. Toward the close of Oc? tober his excitement became terrible; he tore his clothes, maltreated his attendants, and howled all day like a wild beast. Sleepless? ness set in, and his ravings were such as to require the application of the straight-jacket. This insanity is a very singular compound of erotic, religious and worldly ideas. Mme, Hottoway, his father, who, he says, is Emper? or of Austria, the Holy Virgin, and the three millions which he says he gave to his former mistress, engross his thoughts all the time. He auffere from paralytic attacks, and his physicians believe that he will hardly outlive the new year. _ AFFAIRS IN THE! STATE. DsurMngtOja. A robbery was committed in Florence on Sunday night.

' The ordinance to raise supplies for tho pre? sent year, adopted by the Town Council of Anderson, will be gratifying news to the tax Eayers of this village.

Little Tilings In Farming, Tho whole success of a farmer bingos upou timely attention to littlo things. Tuts mainly niakoB tho di?Vronco between thrift and pov orty. Tho philosophy of success ie oxpreased in tho old adage, "For want of a nail a thoo was lost; for want of a shoe a horso was lost; tor want of a horse a man was lost." It is a little thing to keep accounts of tho pecuniary transactions upon the farm. A half hour Sat? urday evening would enable farmers to know ju>>t how thoy stand with the world. Yot wo suspect half tho men who cultivate tho soil never maleo an entry in a book : and for want . d' this tho accounts run up fearfully at tho store, and many articles of luxury aro pur? chased lor which thoy aro unablo to pay at tho end of tho year. Debts accumulate, tho farm ia mortgaged, and finally lest for '-'io want of a little paper ami mk. It is a ludo thing to put up a tool in its placo v.hen not in uso. Yot many bavo no tool-bouse, or place of sheltor for any implement or vehicle. Things are iett where they wore last uscd-tho plow in the field, tho cart in tho yard, the chains in the atablo, tho harness in the wood-house, tho axo at tho woodpdo, and tho rakes at tho corn crib. Many do not even house tho expouaivo implements they havobought; and roapers and threshers aro treated hkoold ploughs aud har? rows. Tho parts made of iron and stool grow rusty, and tho wood decays. A machine that is good for thirty yoais with proper care, is usod up in five hy abuso, lt is a very little thiug to turn a nut that is loose, yet for tBO want of tho tightening the nut is lost, the bolt comes out, and the loaded wagon breaks down on tho way t y market, and a whole day for man and team is lost. In is a little thing to keop a horse properly groomed, yet for want of clean fetlocks tue skin cracks, and the horse is lame, and the owner loses the uso of him 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 sets in. It is a small affair to provide good seed at the beginning ot the > car, but the whole? success of tho soason depends upon it. It is an easy thing to deal fairly with your neighbors, and make a namo that is better than "precious ointment. ' Many ohoat on small occasions, do not got what they sell, and get a reputation for meanness that stands in the way of their success. HAVING MANURE. Every man of common sense must admit that the rules to ba adopted for a rational sys? tem of saving manure, must bo 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 bo even, in order to permit the equal distribution of tho manure on it, and thus secure tho heap uniformity in thickness. Only in this case tho process of pu'refaction will prooeed regularly in every part of tho heap, and its body will prove to be a homogeneous character. 3d. The manure should be protected against the direct rays of the sun, in order to prevent the too rapid advance of tho putrefactive pro? cess, and a consequent goneration of heat which will incur a considerable loss of ammo? nia. Practioal experinionts made with equal weights of stable manure expdsod to the sun, and with that under cover, show the effect of the latter to bo, within a certain time, about twenty-five per cent, ft r oater than the former. 3d. The manure heap should be kept mode? rately moist; if it be too dry, tho 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 on vegotation. In order best to attain this end. tho ground should be slightly inclined, and all tho finid that runs from the heap be collected in a pit, and from time to timo scattered over GENERAL GRANT'S CABINET.-The gossipers and Cabinet-makers are determined not to permit Qenerul Grant to select his own Cabi? net, but have prepared for him any number of sets. All he has to do ia to signify which he 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 Francis Adams, Wm. Pitt Fes senden. Secretary of tho Treasury-Geo. S. Bontwell, David A. Wella. E. B. Washbnrne, Edwin D. Morgan, John Sherman, O. P. Morton, Reuben E. Fenton. Secretary of- War-Jphn M. Schofield, Henry Wilson, Roheit O. Sohenck, Bi chard Yates, John Oovode, Simon Cameron, Joseph B. Hawley. Secretary of the Navy-Commodore Porter, Admiral Farragut, Andrew O. Curtin, M. O. Robert?, John A. Griswold, Hannibal Hamlin, J. A. J. Creswell, Ben Egleston. Secretary of the Interior- Benjamin F. Wade, E. B. Washbucne, Horaoe Greeley, John Bid? well, John M. Ashley, Zach. Chandler, Senator Ramsey. Postmaster-General-Wm. B. Allison, Horaoe Greeley, Samuel Galloway, Wm. Dennison, John Covode, Governor Ward, George W. Ju? lian. Attorney-General-General Rawlings, James F. Wilson, Wm. H. Evarts, Matthew H. Car po?ter, F. T. Freylinghausen, Edwards Pierre? point. ?_ _ THE LAST SLATE.-The last slate for Grant's Cabinet, according to the Baltimore Gazette, is as follows : Secretary of State-Stanton, hail mg from Pennsylvania. Seorotory. ot the Treasury-Wells, hailing from Massachusetts. Secretary of the Interior-Wade, bailing from Ohio. Secretary of War-Rawlings, -. Seorotory of the Navy-Morgan, hailing" from New York. Postmaster-General-Conness, hailing from California.. Attorney-General-Carpenter, hailing from Wisconsin. In respeot .to Stanton, the rumor is that the Cabinet oanhot be made up without bim. He himself, 1 learn, would prefer the Benoh, but the antagonism existing in Massachusetts, and the determination of Grant to appoint Wells, have forced .the State. Department on New England. Difficulties exist also in Penn? sylvania, which are otherwise irreconcilable. As to the Navy Department, it is possible -that Fenton or Greeley may be appointed, depen? dent upon the result of the senatorial election. COTTON ADD Dav GOODS.-The Now York Fi? nancial Chronicle of Saturday Haye: Considering the season of the year, the dry goods business is unusually large, though rather of a speculative nature. Agents find no difficulty in closing oaf their entire stock at the ruling figures, while jobbers are receiving considerable orders from the;interior. Prices of sheetings and prints have been and even now are very low, if the raw material is to be maintained at present rates, and there appears io be no prospect of any considerable decline in cotton until there is materially diminished con? sumption in Manchester, and an improvement in the stock at Liverpool. Besides, tbs large short interest at prices much below prosont rates, must have a tendency to keep the market firm. Sales for delivery this month have been made, both here and at Liver? pool which must bo oovered, und if they are of the extent claimed, may continue to impart considerable excitement to the mar? ket, especially while the South is sending for? ward orders to pur oh ano. having confide! ic o in much higher rates, based on reduced estimat es of the crop. The bustaees for forward deliv? ery has been quite limited this week until to? day, the total reaching only about 1000 bales (all low middling), there being very few sellers even at the high rates obtained. Rut to-day ?here have been further sales amounting to 1)00 bales. We note sales of 450 bales for February at 20Jo, and 160 bales for March at samo price; 800 bales for February or March, 100 for January or February, and 100 bales for February at 30c; and 50 bales for each Febru? ary and March at 8640, and to-day ?00 bales for February and 300 bales for January at 96fo, and 120O bales terms private. F/SKALB LA wm.-A rather noyel sight was witnessed on ono of the wharves at Alexan? dria, Va., last week. About eighteen colored women who wer? gathering chips there were told if they would unload a barge with a oar>e> of wood, then lying there, they might have the hark. They i m mediately -net to work, and, it ia said; did more work in ? lm.io time than the samo number of men of their Own color wets aver known to do, *#, KOR PHILiA.DRL.PHIA-KBtPIR* LINK.
