[FROM O tJB OWN CO H P.ESPO N'D ns T. ]
CoLuacBia, february 13.-There has boen
little or no debate of any groat public iuterest,
in either brancu, for tho last two days. Tho
Senate commenced its two sessions a day on
Friday and disposed of a largo amount of bu
incss on the calender. Some six or eight bills,
the titles of which have been already tele?
graphed to THE NEWS, received their third
reading, passed, and were ordered to be sent
to thc House. OJ the question being taken
yoafcrday of agreeing to the passage of tho
bill to confirm and declaro valid the recent
election of Mayor and Aldermen o? tbo City of
Charleston, S. OL, Wiinbush called for tho
yeas and nays, which were taken and resulted
as follows :
Yeas-Messrs. Aruim, Allen, Corbin, Hoyt,
Hayne, JiUaon, Lunney. Moutgotnory, Max
well, M. Sh, SwaQs and Wright-12.
Nays-Messrs. Bat ber, ?Jain, Foster, Owens,
Bainey. Reid, RoJgers and Wimbush- 8.
So ino bill pussed, and was otdercd to bc
sent to the House of Representatives.
IN THE HOUSE, to-day, Brown of Charleston,
introduced a resolution instructing tho Com?
mittee ou Privileges and Elections, and tho
Judicial y Commitcec. to report by Tuesday
upon tho bill to confirm and declare valid tho
recent election for Mayor and Aldermen of the
Citv of Charleston.
DeLarge said : I hope the resolution will be
referred. Thia is ono of tho most important
bills over introduced iuto tbis Loitisiaturo, and
the committee require time to examine it.
Tbis bill will establish a precedent, and wheth?
er tue result will bo for good or evil, I will not
now say; but I am opposed to establishing pre?
cedents without doe thought aud considera?
tion, which some evince a disposition not to
have dono, but desire only to hasten this re?
port. Io conuection with that subject, 1 would
remark that thero is not only tho law to be
considered, but also tho best interests of the
community of Charleston. 1 will notassent to
have tho committee put uudrr the lasb of tho
whip to make their report. I know tuc major?
ity of the committee aro iu favor of thc bul on
the same grounds upon wh.ch that honest, that
intelligent, that puro, that smart, that zealous,
that able, that wiso, and that learned attorney
defended tho measure in another blanch of
this General Assembly. Whilst I admit
the right of the member to introduce
the resolution, I also have a right to
Rive my opinion as to the feasibility of tho
committee miking a report upon a subject of
such great and grave importance without duo
consideration ot tue law in all its bearings.
There can be nothing lostin giving the commit?
tee ti tue to thoroughly consider it, as it is
something of great and vital importance. I
am not here new to say whether I am iu favor
of or against the bill. I shall decido that ques?
tion myself, and when it comes up, if 1 am
here I shall defend or oppose it, as my judg?
ment dictates.
Elliott also favored the reference, and
thought the adoption of tho resolution of
instruction was unnecessary, as tbe committee
would give the subject their most earnest con?
sideration, and report ia duo timo.
The resolution, on motion of Feiiter, was re?
ferred to tho Commut?e on the Judiciary.
Mr. Corbin introduced in tho tenate on Fri?
day, a bill io prevent and punish bribery and
corruption, the first section of which pre?
scribes a penalty of imprisonment in the peni?
tentiary not exceeding five years, or a fine ot
three thousand collars and imprisonment in
jail not exceeding one year, to any one who at?
tempts to bribe any executive, legislativo or
judicial offi. er. A motion to print brought out
some opposition.
Kev. h. H. Cam said, his greatest objection
to the hill was, that ho was afraid ;f tho bill
passed the Republican parly in South Carohua
goes down.
Mr. Corbin wished to know which wing of it.
Cain-The white wing; tho ono of which 1
spoke of the other djy as r-ouopoLziug ail the
offices.
Mr. Corbin said, in his young dava he usod
to go bunting especially after duchs and
partridges. When he shot imo a flock tie could I
always teil which one was shot Dy tbe flutter- j
iug. L"anybody was hit beru ho thought it

Mr. Corbin asucd tho friends of the bill for

ooo of tho mest cool an J ablo debaters in tho

mittee appointed by tho House and Senate to
wait upon General Grant and notify bim of bis
election as President of tho Uuited States, dis?
charged the duty assigned to them on Satur?
day morning.
Senator Morton, in a few remarks, aspurcd
the General that his election was extremely
gratifying to bis countrymen, and that tho
people felt assured ho would, iu exercising tho
duti03 of his distinguished office, apply tho
samo oncrgy, integrity, and patriotism that
bad character's d bim in a former sphere of
usefulness ; and in coucluding his remarks,
said that bo would have the support of tho
pooplo of the nation-even including those who
differed politically from him-in administer ing
tho affairs of the government.
O ENE RA I. GRANT'S POLICY.
General Grant manana frnm t>Ttnr tirnr-.
ton tho ceitificate of bis election, announced,
amidst intense excitement on tho part of the
few gentlemen who wore prosoat, and in a
firm, audible voie, substantially, that in ac?
cepting tho office of President of tho United
States, he assarod them of his do termin?t ion
to carry out faithfully tho obligations of that
office, and reitrred particularly to the necessi?
ties for an honest and faithful discharge jf the
revenue laws. He would call around him men
who would earnestly carry out tho principles of
economy, retrenchment and honesty, which
were desired by tho people of tho country.
If he did not Buccaed iu this, at first ho would
not hositate to make a soco ad or oven a third
trial, and until ho fouud those who would
prove entirely bat ?at ac tory. Should tho officers
of the ^afferent branches of tho government
Bervice not satisfy bim in the discbarge of their
official duty, he would not hesitate a moment
about removing them, and would do so just as
quickly with bis own appointments as with
those of his predecessor.
General Grant stated that bo had not an?
nounced his Cabinet up to the time of tho offi?
cial declaration of the result of tho election,
but had intended at that period to makoknown
tho names of tlioso whom be would iuvito to
becomo members. In Ihn interval, however,
he had concluded not to make known tho
nam. s of tho gentle tuon whose services he
would be glad to have in this respect even to
tho gentlemen themselves, until bo sc ut them
into tho Senate for confirmation. Tho reason
for this determination, General Grant sud,
was boeauso of thc taut that should ho do
so, a pressure would immediately oommonce
from vanor.s partios, to endeavor to induce
him to change his. doiermiua'iou, not BO much
prob bly fruin tho fact that tho opposition
wouid bo mido from personal motives, but on
aoc.uut of the interest whioh thc getiCe.noa
may havo for moir own friouds. For these aud
other reasons, he had consludod to inakj uo
public announcement of bia Cabinet uutil ibo
t.mo mentioned.
General >.raut spoke without any reserve,
and with the greatest frankness and courtesy;
and his remarks were receivod by bis dis?
tinguished visitors with every mark of intorost
and approbation.
DEMOCRATIC CD-OPERATION PROMISED.
Afterward, Mr. Pruvu, of the committee, ad?
dressed the General very briefly, to the effect
that wtiilo the party with which he was identi?
fied differed politically from tho Prcsidont
cloct, ho desired-to assure L..n that his admin?
istration iu carrying ont tho principles which j
he bad mentioned, would have their hearty

THE CATERPILLAR.
A Proposed Plan to Prevent ita Ravages.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS.
It was stated in a volume published during
the war, that it had been observed that hemp
cultivated as a border plant in garden s would
prevent tho attacks of caterpillars, insects,
&c. This plant sown along with cotton alter?
nately, or in tho furrows, may keep off the
caterpillar from our fields. It may thus also
be a source of profit.
The writer, from a recent consideration of
tho subject, would suggest also the planting
with cotton tho seeds of two or three of the
plants which yield an aromatic or fetid odor,
or which gives out au emanation hostile to
?U60Cts. Thc30 aro the wild chamomile or
May wood, the milfoil or yarrow, and tho tan?
sey. The "Carrion F.ower" (Smilaxherbacea),
which grows near Charleston, at its period of
infioresence in August and September, is
sufficiently offensive for any purpose. The
difficulty will be to procure seeds for the com?
ing year. It may bo tested on a small scale by
those interested. F. P. P.

-The opening of the French Chambers took
place as usual at the Pavilion Deaon, the route
to which from ihe Tuileries was lined with the
National Guard. Tho hangings of the hall
wero of crimeon velvet trimmed with gold lace,
with which the windows and doorways were
also draped. At the farthest extremity waa a
raised platform, on which was the throne, with
thc chairs for tho members of tue Imperial
family and seats bellin . for tho higher digni?
taries of the court. Thc Empress Eugenie
arrived some moments before Napoleon, and
was met at the entrance by tho Princesses
Clotilde, Mathilde and Murat. She- conversed
a short time with thesd ladies, and then walked
through the Salle and up tue grand staircase
to the tribune, which is set apart lor her. The
Empress wore a robe of light-blue silk, over
which was some exquisite jiouvt WAlencon lace.
Her bonnet was, like tt?o dross, blue, and
trimmed in the simplest manner. Tho Prin?
cesses, like her Majesty, though dressed very
richly, wore toilettes remarkably plain. At
half-past twelve thc doors hod been
closed ; no ono being allowed to enter
later, save those m the suite of the Emperor.
At one, tho booming of cannon and the
cheers of the crowd assembled outside an?
nounced tho coming of Napoleon. When he
entered thc hall a chambellan announced in a
loud tone, ''L'Empereur," and all present rose
until thc sovereign bad reached the throne
and taken his scat thereupon. Tho Emperor
wore tho uniform of a general of division, and
waa accompanied by the Prineo Imperial, who
wore a suit of black" velvet, Knickerbocker, and
purple silk stockings. Ho was pale; bad a
latigued look; soemed in fact somewhat bored
by the imposing ceremony he was made lo as?
sist at. Tho Empei or looked quite well, and
read his discourse in a loud, clear tono, which
must have bten heard in all parts of tho hall.
In the galleries above tho Salle weto those
ladies who had received special letters of invi?
tation, and as they wore tho richest toilettes,
tho cJup (Tacit was splen lid. Tho senators
and members of the Corps L?gislatif were, of
course, in uniform, as wore all the officers
present and tho Diplomatic Corps, Near tho
throno tho marshals and ministers stood, re?
splendent with decorations and silver em?
broideries. There was amputation of tho
Grand Crosses of the Legion of Honor and all
the military and civil bodies of the State were
gorgeously ropresentod.
ENOLISH IMMIGRANTS FOR YIBGINIA.-About
the 1st of September, a small party of English
sporting gentlemen, headed by Captain Ash?
land, passed thiough this city with tueir dogs,
guns and other sporting requisites, intending
to spend some time in tho pursuit of game
among thc mountains of the Blue Ridge. So
satisfactory has beon thoir experience, and so
well pleased with tho country aro they, that a
large tract of lund hos beon purchased near
Gainesville, on thc Mantissas Railroad, and
Captain Ashland and Mr. samuel Warsley sail?
ed irom Now York on Wednesday for thc pur?
pose of bringing out a small colony of English
emigrants, which is expected to arrive about
tho 1st of April, per steamer.
[ Washington Letter.
-Mrs. Johnson, a confirmod invalid, has
never appeared in society in Washington.
Her very existence is a myth to almost every
one. She was last seen at a party given tb
her grandchildren. She was seated in one of
thu Republican Court chars, a dainty affair of
satin and ebony, she did not rise when tho
children, or older guests, wore presented to
her; bbc simply said, "My doars, I am an in?
valid," and her sad, pale lace and sunken eves
fully proved the expression. Mrs. Johnson
looks mn nh nlnW than Lae-Prflfiirlp"?-, and her
age does exceed his by a few swings of the
ecythe of lime. She was never beautiful, but
au observer would say, contemplating her.
"A noble woman-God's first, best gifctoman."
None but a wise and good mother could have
reared such daughters as Mrs. Patterson and
Mrs. Stover.-[Waahino ton Correspondence.
