THE COASTING TBADK.-A convention of the owners and masters of vessels engaged in the United States coasting t md J was held in Phila? delphia on Wednesday, at whioh a large num? ber of delegates from all the seaboard States attended. It was called under the auspices of tho ".Vessel Owners and Captain*' Association of Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Delaware," for tbe purpose of forming auxiliary associa? tions in othex parts of the oountry. The pro? tection ot the interests of vessel owners and a mutual interchange of views upon tba sub? jects involved wero the primary reasons for tho meei mg of this convention, which brought to 'Philadelphia some of the largest shipowners of the United ?tates, representing properly valued at many millions of dollars. The Ameri? can coasting trade is almost exclusively in American hands, and is carried apon American built vessels, thousands of people being inter? ested in it as owners or sailors. Whilst tho foreign trade of the oountry carried in Ameri? can vessels languishes, the coasting trade has been kept un mainly through the exertions and protecting care of thia * 'Vessel Owners' As? sociation." Tko convention has determined to appeal to Congress and the State Legislatures to remove various rou tuet ions of whioh the ti ndo complain; and as it represents a large and important brunch of industry, its appeal win be presented with weight. Colonel N. G. W. Walker has commenced running a two-horse coach from Barnwell Courthouse to Blackville. JP'BOX THE STJLTE CAPITAL. Tbe Codification of tb? Lawi-General Legislative Business-Van arnon?; tho Representatives - Tbe Third Monee A L'atcchlam of tho Lobby-Tbe Land Commissioner's lt tn.--Tito Sou4.lt Caro. Una Railroad. TFItOM OUB OWN COMlESrONDENT.] COLOMBIA, SATURDAY, February 6.-The de? bato yoBterday and to-day on Ibo bill provid? ing for the codification of thc laws of South Carolina bas been quito interesting. Tho ilrel question raised was on tho propos? ed amendment of tho Committee on tho Judi? ciary as follows: That the first section of the bill be amended so us to read: "Ici pur^uanco of Boction three of article fivo of tho constitution, a commis? sion, consisting of two persons learned in law, ono to bo elected by tho Senate and ouu by the Rouse of Representatives, is hereby establish? ed, whose duty if shall bo to revise, simplify, arrange and consolidate, under proper hoads, oil tho statute laws of tho State, general aud permanont in their nature, which shall bo of force at tho timo they mako the fiual report." Senator Rainey, of Georgetown, made an earnest and eloquent spojeh on tho subject, exciting lio small Burpnso and astonishment. Ho said bo was desirous of having a code of laws, but he wantod to have the work perfoim ed in Buch a manner as would be creditable alike to the General Assembly and tho state. But, unless this was done, he prcferrod peeing certain laws abrogated, and then to fall back on tho statutes ot South Carolina, as a whole, than to havo them cut up, mutilated and de? formed. What ho desired was to.soo men em? ployed to clo this work who havo already studied the Btatutes, learned men of mature experience; not men who woald be paid for simply studying the statutes. They might not be able to got auch a.groat jurist as James L. Potigm, who was himself a walking text-book, but be thought they could got thoso in tho State who would not make them feel ashamed of their choice when thc work was presented. Senator Corbin concurred in tho aentiments of Senator Rainey, but said the committee of? fered tho amendment to tho bill as a compro? mise. They were all painfully aware of the disagreements between tho Senate and House at the special seBsiop, and this had been drawn with a view to obviate the difficulty. In tho discussion on Senator Lesho's motion to strike out four thousand dollars and insert thirty-five hundred as tho yearly salary of the commissioners, Senator Corbin was decidedly opposed to the reduction. He took tho ground that they could not got men of ability to do tho work satisfactorily at that price. Ho an? nounced that, though it bad been so intimat? ed, ho was not an aspirant for the position. But it waa an employment that required the ablest men they could find, and he was will? ing, in order to have it well done, to provide for liberal paymont. Senator Nash thought if they would Bond over to Sumter, thoy could got an old gentle? man there (J. S. G. Richardson) bent down with rheumatism, it is truo, but one who, like Mr. Pctigru, is a text book himself. Ho would guarantee they could got him to do the work tor $3500, and do it well, irr jspectivo of poli? tics. He was unwilling to give the codifiers more than the judges. The amendment prevailed by a vote of ayes 12, naya 7. Tho Senate bill, as amended, pro? vides for only one codifier, at a salaiy of $8500 per annum, with an allow Mice of $5000 for printing, stationeiy, &c. GENERAI. BUSINESS. On Friday, the following bills which had passed the House were passed in the Senate, and their titles changed to that of an Act: ; An aot to. enforce the provisions of the Civil Rights bill of the United Statea Congress.

The bill to establish and maintain a system of public schools for the State, on motion, of Mr. Jillson, waa continued, to be taken up as unfinished business on Monday. A bill to establish a public ferry in York County was recommitted to tho Committee on Roads", Bridges and Ferries, with instructions to ameud the same so that no person shall be charged for ferriage on going to or returning from church or election, or children going to or returning trom Behool. A bill to amend an act to organize the Cir? cuit Courts passed its second readmg and was ordered to be engrossed, lt roads as follows: SECTION 1. That paragraph three of section three of tho act entitled "An act to organize tb? Circuit Courts, passed the fifteenth day of August, A. 1). 1868, be amended so as to read as follows: 3.

All processes, writs and recogniz? ances of every kind, issued (or which, before the ratification of this act, shall have been issued) and made returnable to the Court of General Sessions, at Walterboro', for tho Coun? ty of Colleton, on tho first Monday -after the fourth Monday in February, Jun? aud October; and to tho Court of Common Pleas, at Walter? boro', for tho County of Colleton, on the Wed? nesday after tho fourth Monday of February, June and October, ?hall be returnable to tho terms of said courts, as herein established, the same as if issued or taken in reference thereto. A bill to regulate tho formation of corpora? tions passed its second reading, with the addi? tion of the following section: SECTION 42. The oct eutitled "An act to au? thorize and legulate the creation of private corporations within this State," approved the twentieth day of December, A. D. 1866, is here? by repealed, in respect to all corporations here? after to be formed; but its provisions shall re? main of force as to all corporations which have already been organized under said act: Provid? ed, all corporations organized under said act may reorganize uuder the provisions of this act. Pending the consideration of the passage of tho bill to authorize the consolidation of the Charlotte a rd South Carolina Railroad Compa? ny and the Columbia and Augusta Railroad Company, Hie Senate adjourned. Previous to adjournment, Mr. Hayes intro? duced a bill to provide for the ?numeration of the inhabitants of the State, which received ils first reading, and was ordered tobe printed. IN TKE HOUSE, on Friday, but littlo of pub? lic interest transpired. A bill to incorporate the Lake Swamp Navi? gation Company of Horry County, whioh had passed the Senate, received its Second rea ling in the House, and was agreed to and ordered to be ongioss?d. A petition of citizens of Rock Hill, York County, for an aot of incorporation, was re eommitted to the Committee on Incorpora? tions, with instructions to report by bill. Mr. Doyle (Democrat), iutrodacod tho fol? lowing concurrent resolution, which was adopted and ordered to bo eout to tho Senate: Jieeotoed, by tbe House of Representatives, the Senate concurring. That a committee, composed of one member of this House from eaoh Congressional District, to act in ooncert with --members of the Senate, be appoint? ed to take into consideration the propriety of establishing a uniform freight liet for railroads in this State. Tho Governor has approved, among other measures, the following: Joint resolution directing the Stat* Trea? sure to pay S. L. Leaphart $181 93 for extra services as Comptrollor-Goneral during the months of Joly and August . A bill to provide for the poor WAS referred, on its second reading, to a special committee of five, with instructions to report the neces? sary amendments. rum tara? HOUSE. Quite an amusing episode occurred in tho Souse on Friday. Th? lobby had been desert I by stilts usual attendant? bub the indefati? gable Tim Hurley. A general feeling of sym? pathy was felt and expressed for Tim, and ? friend thereupon introduced tho following joint resolution : Whereas, Ibo third House by tho absence of Stephen Millet, President of the Port Boyal Railroad, Alexander Isaacs. vice-President of the Savannah and Charleston Railroad, and Dr. J. C. Rookwoll, President of tho Aiken Sanitary Association, has been reduced to tho level or this House, leaving its Speaker, Hon. Tim. Hurley, in an insignificant minority; therefore, be it Resolved, That tho Senate and House of Representatives proceed to tho election of threo proxies to represent said absentees at a weekly spiritual meeting, to bo hold at Nickerson's Hotel, on Monday evening, 8th iustant, at eight o'clock. Tho resolution was sent up to tho Speakor's desk, and was read, taking the members by surprise, but onding by hoing withdrawn amid roars of laughter. THE LOBBY CATECHISM.

Satisfactory answers to tho above will secure arcady response from membeisof tho third House. LAND COMMISSIONERS. Much of thc time of tho Houso was consum? ed to-day in the discussion of a bill for the appointment of a Board of Land Commission? ers, and tho substituto tberofor reported by the commitleo appointed in furtherance of tho provisions of an ordinance passed by the late convention. It is generally conceded that suoh a board will bo of advantage to the people of the State if specially chargod with the purchaso of cheap arable lands and resale of them in small farms. The only point of dispute was tho manner of appointing those commissioners and tho oompansation they should receive for their services. Tho original bill contemplated the appoint? ment of three commissioners, one of whom was to attend all sales of land in person, and under the direction of tho other two make pur? chases aud resales. He was to receive as compensation for his services a fee of ten dol? lars for every title whieh he issued, while tho other two commissioners reoeived a per diem of six dollars whilst the board was in session. The substituto differed from th? original bill only in tho compensation of the travelling commissioners, which was fixed at ?2500. No conclusion was reached, lt is understood that DeLarge is tho asr. iring candidate for the po? sition of chief commissioner. THE SOUTH CA lt OLIN A It AH. ROAD. DeLarge, from tho Committee on Ways and Means, to-day reported on the State concur? rent resolution relative to the appointment of R. B. Elliott and W. E. Rose to represent the stoek held by the State and Bank of the State, at the annual meeting of Stockholders of tho South Carolina Railroad Company, and recom. Mended the adoption of the following resolu? tion as a substituto. Resolved, by tho Hooso of Representativos, the Senate concurring, That the Governor be and he is hereby directed to appoint the requi? site number of persons to represent the State aadthe Bank of the State, at the annual meet? ing of the stockholders of the South.Carolina Railroad Company, to bo held at Charleston on the ninth of February, 1869. On motion of C. D. I lay no, the report was laid on the table to take up the substitute. The report was adopted and ordered to be sent co the Senate tor concurrence. "WHAT ROYALTY COSTS.? TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS. The Royal family and Queen ore no expense to Groat Britain. George the Third inherited, as Tom, Dick or Harry might havo done, cer? tain lands. These estates wero vested in tho Crown Land Commissioners, in consideration of Parliament providing the necessary supply for the Crown and Royal family. In 1867, the proceeds received by the Commissioners ex? ceeded tho amounts paid to the Queen and Royal family by the pretty little sum of ?76,000. So the Queen lost in that year $380,000 by her grandfather's arrangement, and the country made that profit on the transaction. Thus the Crown of England costs $380,000 a year tess than nothing, or about half a million less than Gonetal Grant will cost when he gets $100,000 a year. JOHN BULL. Pendleton; S. C., February 6. GERMAN EMIGRATION. Leading Features ot the New Treaty. It is understood that the project of a con? vention between the United States and tho North German Union, for the better protection of emigrants to the United States, is under consideration by Boron Gerolt and certain par? ties in New York and Washington. The pian of a treaty having this in view has already been prepared both at the Treasury Depart? ment and the State Department-that from the latter office modifying several of the pro? visions contained in the former. As yet there has been no definite action with respect to either. The substance of the introduction of the projeot is that the United States of America aud the King of Prussia, io tho name ol the German Union, deem it important, both in the interest of humanity and sound publie policy, to provide greater protection to emigrants from North Germany to the Uuited States, in the matter of health, comfort and morals, than has heretofore boen enjoyed by them; and had resolved to appoint a convention for that pur-. pose. Following this is a number of ar tides rolativo to the catriago of passengers on ves? sels, respecting discipline, cleanliness, kc, one of the requisitions being that the master of the vessel shall, before sailing, post con? spicuously m thc various compartments ot the vessel oertain regulations mentioned in an ap? pendix to tho proposed treaty, and such others as may bo deemed necessary, iu tho English, Frenoh and German languages. In tbe event of the provisions not being complied with by a citizen either of tho United States or North Germany, involving amenability to the penal? ties prescribed, tbe oase shall be referretrro a board of commissioners consisting of /ourtnem b' va, two apoointed by the United Stales and two by tho North German Government, ortho Minister of the latter in the United States, if the case be adjudicated here, or by the United State? Minister in Berlin, it the case ls to bo adjudicated there. These commissioners aro invested with the*usnal privileges of commis? sioners in oases requiring decisions of a nation? al oharaoler, and t,holr aotion, where they agree, is to be final. Whatever fines are col? lected for violations of the treaty stipulations in tho United States are to be paid into tho Treasury and held for paying expenses of the commissioners. It is also provided that the master of such passenger vessels bringing passengers to the United States shall pay to that Government one dollar for every statute adult brought on board such vessel to tbe United State?, and as much of the amount re-< oeived as is nooossary is to bo held for carry - lng out the treaty stipulations. IM FILZSliUMT TO HE SEATED "WitH TUX POINT OF THE BAYONET 'F* TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS. In tho debato upon Mr. Corbin's bill to make valid tho invalid and itlogal city election, (pac mask was thrown off, and some of t ho senators proclaimed not only tbat it ia and must ba a PARTY question, but tboy also announce the determination to Boat tho Republican eati'U dates BY FORCE, t It behooves tho citizens of Charleston to?$o forewarned, that tboy may bo forearmed $r this contingency. j Bevorly Nash, "tho representativo man" riid colored senator from Richland, said : .'Wo would Bay tbat When a Republican,'is "elected to office in this State, he wanted t$o "lawyers, whether on Broad-street in Cbartas "ton, or Lady-street in Columbia, to know tl,ut "the Republican WAS GOING TO HOLD HIS QF "FIOE. ***** Ho wanted tho Ser?we "to understand thia-that wheu a Republican "is elected to any office in this Sta^e, as far as "his vote can do it, ho was williup to bring THE "WHOI.B POWER OF THE ?STATE TO BF.AR Tf> "FORCE THE PEOPLE TO BEC GIVE AND </? " KNOW LEDGE THAT MAN AS AN pFFIOER OF TM! "STATE. * * * * Money in Cbarleston Las "prevailed and doubtless han-?*>rruptcd some "of the Republicans there. A mnjonty of the "Acting Aldermen aro said to be Republicans, "yet they aro BO tenacious of office, they want "to hold on and not yield to those they know "lo be duly elected. Every tbreo months gives "the acting Mayor over a thousand dollop "salary, and ho can take tbat salary to fight "Mr. Pillsbury with in tho courts. HE \?AS "NOT WELLING TO LEAVE IT TO THE COURTS OR ?iTO AJNI DIKER PARSON, What UIO thc rights "of tho people in this mattery HE WAS KOT "WILLING TO LEAVE THE QUESTION OF tHI "RIGHTS OF THE CITIZENS OF TH? STATE TO "COURTS, JUDGES, OR ANY PARTICULAR INDVYI "DUAL. Tho people of Richland sent him them lo "reprosent them on this floor, and if he Had "the powor by his voto to protect thom in tboir "rights ho intended to do it WITHOUT REGARD "TO THE SUPREME Con?, DISTRICT COURT OR "ANY OTHER COURT. He wanted to see,tho "Republican senators boro act as the Rcpnbii "can senators did in Washington when a Re "publican Mayor and Alderman wero elootsd, "and tho Democrats would notgivo them their "offices. Congress LEGISLATED THE REPUBLI "CANS INTO THEin POSITIOMS. It Mr. Pillsbury "and his Aldermen have been elected,- aa "shown by tho highest number of votes, HE "WANTED THEM PUT INTO OFFICE IF IT REQITIR "ED THE GOVERNOR TO CALL OUT THE WHOLE "FORCE OF THE STATE FOR THAT PUR? POSE. * * * * * * 'Ibis "is a matter which ho believed to be tho "LIFE OF HIS PARTY, tho Republican party LS "CHARLESTON; IT DEPENDS UPON IT. He not "only favored tho measure because ho behoved "it to be right, BUT HE FAVORED IT AS A PARTY "MEASURE."' Mr. Corbin, tbo legal officer of tho United States, tho retained counselor Pillsbury, the senator l'rom Charleston ni Mf, aMfho codi? fier of tbo law in posse, saidS jp* "lam exeeodiugly anxtons that this marier "should, bo disposed of at once. Tho pee^o "outside as well as in tho Sonato have been "very busy in this matter. For my own part "I would like te know to-dny WHETHER THE "REPUBLICAN PARTY HAS ANY EXISTENCE OB NOT. "Whether the law is to be enforced, or whether "money, iufluonce and big names are to rule "oontiary to principle, to law, and to or> "der. * * * * * * Iwould "say it is a bill of the greatest impor? tance. It is not the pecuniary importance of "tbo offices ot Mayor and Aldermen of Charles "ton; not the mere enjoyment for a day or-a "season of those offices; it is not the m ro "emolument of the offices, but tho flAAVEN "BOBN (tl) principles of our constitution and "laws. Thoso lie at the foundation of this "matter, and whenever a vital matt*?ef our "constitution and laws comos up t s horrid "command an earnest Attention of cvry Icftgrd "of his country, of??iaw, order tiMTC&SlIM '.And these are tho principles that have been f "assailed, violently, shamelessly assailed by a "set of men-a few men in tho City of Charles "ton. Will the General Assembly, when such "is the fact, allow such a shameless, tyranni? cal abuse of position ? I believe not. When "such question arises THE SENATE SHOULD ACT "AT ONOE, arrest its labors, AND APPLY THE ' 'BEMEDY." Mr. Leslie, who opposed the bill, says "I called the attention of senators tolthia "bill when it waa introduced by the senator "from Charleston. He wanted to put it on "its "second reading then and there, and "made just Buch a speech why it should "be read. THE OBY WAS OF PARTY. HE APPEALED "TO THE REPUBLICAN PARTY. THAT IS ALL IN "THE WORLD IN IT." Maxwell, the senator from Marlboro', said "I am in favor of the passage of the bill, OB "OF THE PASSAGE OF ANX OTHER BILL, THB PUR "PORT OF WHICH IS TO BEAT MK. PILLSBURY AND * - THE ALDERMEN ELE GT, IN OFFICE. I AM IN FAVOR "OF PU mua MB. PILLSBURY IN, IF WE HAVE TO "DO IT WITH THE WHOLE POWEB OF THE STATS, ' OK WITH THE POINT OF THE BAYONET." These extracts from the debate are here re? peated, not for the puipoae of argument, not even for the purpose of calling attention to the gre BS misrepresentations of the truth, nor of protesting against the tulse imputations against citizens contained in them-although much eau be said, as much is suggested by them. It is not even proposed to call attention again to the course of the senatcr from Charleston, who endeavors to use bis power as senator over bis collen gue?, to force them to give to his clients those offices which he has been paid as a lawyer to obtain for them, and who cloaks this conduct, alike unbecoming him as a lawyer and ns a senator, by vehement, and impassion appeals in behalf ol the " Hea "veu (? ?) born principles of the constitution" of South Carolina, although this too is a fruit? ful theme. But they a?e quoted to confirm the assertion which was made at the commencement ot this article, ?hat it has been openly avowed io the Legislature, by more than one senator, that IT IS NECESSARY FOR THE REPUBLICAN PARTY THAT THE LEGISLATURE SHALL SEAT PILLSBURY AND HIS ALL EHMEN WITHOUT BEGA RD TO, AND IN SPITE OB, THE COURTS AND THE LAW, AND BI FOBOE IF NECESSARY, WITH THE POINT OF THB BAYONET. MEMBERS OF THE .LEGISLATURE, OFFIOBBS OF THB STATS, EXECUTIVE AND JUDICIAL, CITIZENS OF THB STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, note with what the citizens of Charleston are thus open? ly threatened, because they have obeyed the law. claimed the protection ot the law, and of nothing but the law, and have refused to yield to the demands of a party, or of the would-be dict?t ors of that party ! CITIZENS OF CHARLESTON I think over these things, realize what ia meant and what is in? tended, and make up your minds what yon are todo! FOREWARNED, FOREARMED. -,-s >, mm . i ? Vile Spnrtanbnrg ami Asheville Rail? road. We take the following letter upon the sub? ject of the Spartanburg and Asheville Railroad from the columns cf the Columbia Phoenix : MB. EDITOR-I noticed in yesterday's (Phoe? nix a short commumuation, signed "Colum? bia," written in the interest of a bill nov be? fore the Legislature, to furnish aid in emend? ing the Spartanburg abd Union Kailroul to Asheville, North Carolina. Tho proposition made by the friends of thia road 13 certainly most reasonable and generous, and mould command the serious consideration of thi Gen? eral Assembly. This company propoiioa to "show their faith by their works, ' inasmuch as they do not ask tho State to lend its iredit to their road until thoy make a aubsuntial demonstration of good faith and em-no* y, by first securing individual subscriptions 0 the amount of $100,000 as a capital with wlioh to commence operations. The Spartan but ; and Union Railroad Company do not desire to bring the extension of their road into comp?? tition with any other road in the Statt, but only ask the General Assembly to consder it upon its own merits. Asheville, tforth| Caro? lina, distant only seventy-four miles iron! spar? tanburg Courthouse, the preseut terminus of tho Spartanburg and Union Railroad, wi) moat certainly be reached by railroad <omrtun?ca? ti?n from tho West Via the Trench Brotd Val? ley, in two years, if not in leas Imo; which will bi it >g the products of Tennessee, Ken? tucky and Ohio to a point almost ai our door?. From tho certainty of the early (completion .of the entire chain of roads west of Asheville, the State of North Carolina, we ate assured, has recently appropriated fabulous amas of money in order lo reach that pcri?t with her roads from the east, and will thus pxJrfect an unbroken chain ci railroads fro n her sot-board to the rioh and fertile valleys of the treal West. Let not the Legislature overlook the import 0 . ant fact that GharloBton is, by many milos, nearer to Asheville than is any harbor on tho coast of North Carolina, and that by (riving the Spartanburg and Union Railroad Company th? aid they ask, and cnn biri g them to extend their road to itf iiatural tormiuus, the billions of produce- naturally smoking the nearest and cheapest outlet, would be shipped via Spartan burg, and Columbia to Charleston. It is now thought that tho Wilmington and Rutherford Railroad, for tho completion of which tho State of North Carolina has sub? scribed $4.000,00 ). will pass tho Bluo Ridge at Butt Mountain Gap-the point at which tho Spartanburg and Union Railroad Company con? template crossing also. Should this bo true, it mrght be agroeablo on the part of the" two companies, or the States by which they aro respectively fostered and encouraged, to imito their Ht rou g tli, and tbus, at a muon earlier day effect the desired connection. Assuming, however, that the Spartanburg abd Union Company will receive no outside assistance, it is but fair to presume that if tho General As? sembly grants the assistance asked for in the bill tho work will ba speedily accomplished. There is only a distance of cloven and one fourth miles of the entire survey from Spar? tanburg to Asheville that con be called moun? tainous, and tho most competont engineers have estimated that the maximum grade on this division will not exceed sixty-three feet por mile. The work on all other parts of tho mad will be comparatively light, running tho entire distance through a country that fur? nishes, at band, all the wood, stone, Sec., re? quired to construct the road. When we re? member that this road pasaos through a coun? try possessing boundless, though as yet unde? veloped, mineral resources; that its' comple? tion will give u? unbroken communication with the "hog and hominy" region of tho world-the Eden of America; that it will give a now impetus to ali our industrial enterprises and prosperity to all our people; that it will enrich the State and make Charleston, indeed and in truth, the queen city of the South, we cannot doubt that tho General Assembly will grant the aid that this company ask in tho bill.
