Tho proprioty of fold? ing an indignation mooting early next week, ac> J asking the presont.Uuilcd ?States Sena ors to resign, was very freely discussed among tho members of both houses. It was asserted of Mr. Trott that he was an active opponent of the present system of reconstruction and a warm supporter of President .Johnson. Mr. Clark is denounced as having doue bis utmost to break down and bring into contempt the Republican party in Charleston, having Mr. Potter and Mr. Geddings as his chief aide-de-camps aud tools. Herrick is a: ogod to be a Deuocrat of the straightest sect. The ' friends'' are par? ticularly bitter ou Mr. Sawyer, who, they say, . has bolrayed the trust reposed in him and gone over, horse, foot and dragoons. Leslie swears that he never knew Mr. Sawyer or the rest of the representatives in Washington, and that they bave betrayed '. ie friends of reconstruc? tion iu Sonth Carolina.

Edgefleld County, ss.-Tn ro. tho Columbia and Augu?ta Railroad Company TS. the South Carolina Railroad Company-Peddon to condemn and as ECES ecmpen-ation tor lands and right ol' way of the South Carolin" Railroad Company. On tho 17ih of December last. I grantod an order requiring the Clerk ot Edgefield County to proceed according to tho provisions of the act of the Genend Assembly (act No. 42) rati? fied on 22d September. 186'8, to empanel a jury ot wclve to assess the oompensation to bc paid by the Columbia and Augusta Railroad Company to tho South Carolina Railroad Com? pany tor a way over the Ianda an'l tight of way of tho latter company, that is to say, first, over the Jot at Orangeville Sta ion, d-scrib?dasa lot of ten acres, on which is situated the depot atsaidstatiou; second, over tho right of way ot ono hundred feet appurtenant to said Soutn Carolina Railroad between said Grauitcvillo Station and the point near Himburg Known os the Dead Fall; and third, over the lands which lie outside of the one hundred feet right of way, bat with,n the two hundred fett claimed by "said company, at that point; and that in rendering their verdict the said jury should discriminate between tbe amounts which should be ascertained by them for a way over the said several parcels ?espectively. lu obe? dience lo such order the clerk did, os ho says, proceed as directed by said act to sel rei ihe names of twenty-four disinterested freeholders of the county, and that on the 81 -t of Decem? ber last ho drew the names of twelve ot the said twenty-four lo act as jurors and summon? ed them to meet at GrauitcviUe on Satuiday, tba 2d January next followiug; that two ot thc twelve jurors so summoned tailed tc attend, and that he made up the proper number by summoning two others from tho village to act in their stoad. ' The jury thus empanelled and assembled wore Bworn by flit, clerk and did proceed to in? spect the premises, and on tho evening of tho samo day did rind and render the following verdict of compensation: 1. For way over lot at Gronitovillo Station, $50; 2. For way between Granitevillo Station and Dead Fall, $50; 3. For way at Doad Fall, $10. Subsequently thereto, to wit, at the recent February term of tho Court of Common Fleas for EJgofield County, the above named defen? dants moved the court tor an order to set aside the verdict, the assessment aud all tho pro? ceedings ol tho jury aforesaid, upon certain grounds and for certain reasons stated and set forth in their motion. Both parties appealed by counsel, and testimonv, both oial ani writ? ten, was introduced by ooth parties in support of, and in opposition to, tbe motion. After hearing all tbe testimony and arguments of counsel, my mind was led irresistibly to the conclusion that many of the grounds stated by defendants for setting aside tho verdict of tbe jory had been well taken; that in some respects the proceeding* of both clerk and jury had been irregular, illegal, in violation of the man? datory provisions of the act 42 and in disre? gard bf defendants rights; and could I have felt assured of my power lo act in the matter, I should have cutertaiue I the motion, and Would havo granted the order asked for; but such power is not conferred upon tho Circuit Judge by (ho act itself, and I did not foci at liborcy to os3umo jurisdiction in so important a matier (unprovided for by law) upon a mere motion in my law-court But 1 intimated to defendant's counsel that if they still persisted iu claiming to havo said verdict sob asido and a jury empanelled de novo for assessment of componsa iou, and would present their griev? ances aud pi eter their request in tho form of Petition in Equity, declaring that thoy claimed only a fail trial before the compensttiou jury (such as the act itself inteudud to secure to thom), and that they did not purpose to avail themselves of tho order piayed for by apply? ing tor anot?cr injunction against tho Colum? bia and Augusta Railroad Company, thereby further cotapl?eating this already protracted coutroverny, I would cntertaiu such petition, aud would consider tho testimony uow before me on this motion as thc proper testimony in such equity proceeding, (ibis latter suggestion was acceded to by counsel ou both sides.) But ai the lea ling attorney and counsel for d?fendants woro not present aud resided in Ch'ai lesion. I would wait until they should decide to take or not to toko tho course above indicated. Having now waited a uasonablo time, and no such petition having beeu presented, noth? ing remains for mo bnt to dismiss the motion now before me, and in d iing so I am gittd to know that the injustice ana injuries done to the South Carolina Railroad Company, alleged by them, are not irremediable. All such wrong* can be redressed and righted. The act itself has provided tho remedy, to wit, by declaring (section 4; "that from the vcidict so reudorcd. it shall be the right of either party to appeal to the first term of tho Circuit Court next en? suing in tho county " and there, on showing reasonable grounds for such appeal, the court will order that the question ot damage and compensation shall be retried before the rega? lar court jurv, and by their verdict, it is to bo presumed, all the wiongs now complained of will bo righted. It is. therefore, now ordered that the motion made for setting aside the ver? dict of tho jury, empanelled by tbe dork in pursuance of my order of 17th December last, be dismissed. f Signe J) Z. PUTT, February 25,1869. Circuit Judge. OUR NE tr PRESIDENT. Grant's Intense IVegrotsm-H ls Intention to Monopolize the Patronage of the Government-Parcelling ont th? Unices among Personal Friends-The Tenure of-offlce Bill-Squally Times Expected. Tho Washington correspondent of tbe Balti? more Gazette, in speaking of tho views and policy of President Grant, says : He means to out-Ile rod Herod in all that pertains to the torture of tho South-ho means to go the length of Sumner in ncgroism-but he designs at the same limo to monopolize the patronage of the government! Bis imbecilo CabiiiCt is universally anathematized by the Radicals; but they ore huid in check b- his monstrous strides in (he direction of military despotism over tho whole country, and espe? cially in the direction of an absolute subjuga? tion of the Southern States. The new Executive thought proper to go out? side of his constitutional duty in recommend? ing in bia first State paper a ratification of the Fifteenth amendment. What had he to do with that business ? Why log in it, except to assuro the fanatics of the North in advance of his extremo radical sentiments ? In almost tho very woids of the letter from this city, which you published on tho m rniug of the 4th instant, ho gave assuranco in his inaugu? ral of "protection" to tho carpet-baggers, and tbe supremacy of the Radicals and negroes of the South, and even before bis office was or? ganized a;, the White House, restored, as was predicted ho would, Torry to his "oonimaud" in Geo i-ci a, Sheridan to his in Louisiana, and Revuolds to bis in Texas. But tho extremist policy in this respect is all that may be expected by the Radical mag? nates. The offices must bo giveu to the Presi? dent's personal friends. lu anahzing his Cabinet I find not a sn?glo man nominated but received this distinction for personal favor* either to him or to his military and personal friend, General Sherman. Tho erneute in the cato of Stewart threatens to break up prematurely tho amicable rula tions of the great Republican party and utterly to prevent thc repeal of the Tcnure-of-office act. The new leader on tho administration sido ol tbe Senate (tho brother ol' G:neral Sherman) immediately introduced a bill lo extricate tho President from his dilemma. You will sec that it was objected to by air. Sumner, and in such a tone and manner that indicated buSnoss. I have not supposed hitherto that the grand Rtdic.tl Hire-up would occur forVut least three months, but it now looks as if harmony would scarcely exist throe days. I am greatly mistaken if Grant's policy will prove a success. He will find, after all. flint his hatred of thc South and admiration of Sambo will not suffice. The Radical leaders will fight to the Inst ditch, and sacri?ce "quite smart," before giving up the spoils. They will die fleet, and die game. Chagrin of thc ttfB.ce Seekers. The politicians have beeD greatly disturbad by tho m muer iu which President Grant snub? bed General Carl Schurz yes tcrdttv. na it leaves them in great doubt ai; to what influence they are to have in controlling local appointments. "Senator'' Schurz boldly protested ag ;i:ist ihs appointments as proposed by the President, and for his trouble received thc ceusoriug re? ply, "1 know the people of Missouri butter tuan you do, Gcueral." This :j;mplo announcement, it is feared, will bu applied lo all who atlompt to dictato to the President in matters of appointment. Another tearful obstado has bean presented to their plans for securi**" ^mces. by tbe positive order that all applications must roach him through his several secretaries. This denies the poli tican an opportunity to urge, persona fly, his claims upon tho President, and to tell him wbathe has done for his party in tbia:TJuion League or io that political club. Eaob case will stand upon its own merits, strippedof the froth of politics. To-day thero was ai great rush upon tho President by the carpet-bag ' brigade, nearly every man being armed;with a packago of papers ho was particularly desirous tho President should read. His reply to all was his Cabinet had not yet taken their places, but when they did they should refer their papers to them for consideration first, after which ho would bo pleased to act on them. Many of these disappointed expectants left the Executive Mansion blessing tho new Presidont -"over the leif." The Army, the Military President and thu l'oliticiani. There is u certain comical worry in the souls pf Radical politicians iu Washington over Pres? ident Grant's determination t > have his pri? vate exccutivo housohold as military as he wants it, even if ho cannot have the Cabinet of his choice. Aroiv headquarters have been al? most literally transported to the White House, tito grounds of which it is feared may yet b? turned into a regular military camp. Tho late Gen ia! of tho Army still has army on tho brain, and. as bc feels himself perfectly capa? ble ol handling that branch of the public ser? vice, might bo well disposed to right matters by his favorito military method if the civil ma? chinery to which he is unaccustomed should work "too long awry. To tono down the army and lop off some cf its limbs is a project that linds considerably more favor among tho politicians than heretofore. Tho personnel of tho President's official household tor the present is as follows: Gouoral Portor will havo charge ot tho matter of making out appointments; Genera! Badcau will attend, as heretofore, to the opening of the correspon? dence; General Babcock will have charge of all applications for, and matters pertaining to, appointments to office-all such applications will bo promptly roforrod to thc several de? partments; General Dant will have control of all arrangements for visiting tho President, in? terviews, presentations and the gen oral charge of tho reception room-transacting thp busi? ness of all callers not absolutely necessary to bo sent to Ibo President. DUEL IN NEW ORLEANS. Rifles the Weapons-Three Exchanges ot Shots-One of the Parties Severely Wounded. A duel was fought on the 4th instant, at Mo? lairo Ridge, near Kew Orleans, between two well kuowu residents of that city, named Lewis Lalaurie and Leonard Sewell. The difficulty originated in an altercation on Carondelet street, respecting a debt of a former partner of Mr. Sewell. The challenging parly was Mr. Laiaurio, and tho weapons selected by his op? ponent were lilies, with round balls, at fifty paces. Thc scone on thc grounds is thus de? scribed by tho Crescent, of the 5'.b : Arrived on tho ground, Messrs. Manuel Blasco and Delnsuza ou the part of Mr. La luuric, aud Messrs. Bernard Avoguo and John Hancock on the part of Mr. Sewell, eousu lcd apart to arrange final preliminaries. Tho weapous selected were ordinary bunting rifles. Each ono had brought ids own gu i. Every preparation having boen omplorod, tho sec? onds tossed tor position. Ibu choice fell to Mr. La I aurie, wuo necessarily selected tho side toward Ibo itarttl and ncarest^ho New Canal, from which dircc*i.on the wn.d was blowing so heavily that it tvs with d'fuculty thc seconds ooma koop on their hals. Thc ad? versaries wcro piaco.l ui position at tho dis? tance mentioned, both preserving a solf-com posuro admirable to behold. Tho final in? structions were then givon to thc principals hoing to fire between thc words Uro aud toree the com-mind to bo given: ' Gentlemen, are you ready ? Eire 1 one, two, throe." The usual wuruing w.:s given; the words droppod from tho lips of tho second, and almost simul? taneously -with the word three Mr. Sewell tired, missing his aim, Mr. Lataurie's gun not go.ug uff, as it b id not boen cocked. No evidence of any disposition toward a re? conciliation being manifested by Mr. Lalaurie, the parties were plaacd again in position. Tho command given as before, Mr. Lalaurie firing fini and Mr. Sewell immediately altor. As Mr. Sewell pulled tho trigger of his deadly weapon a gust of wind struck him full in the lace, blowing his eye-glasses quite oft his nose and over his head. Without ado ho quietly drew from his breast pockat a pair of gold mounted spectacles, which ho securely fixed over his eyes. Upon examination by thu se? conds it was discovered that Mr. Sewelfs trou sors were perforated in tbe right lee. just be? low tho kneo, by Mr. Lalaurie'a ball, which bad, however, respected tho skin. No appearance of reconciliation being at all evident, this cool, deliberate, desperate conflict reached its third stage. The rifles were again placed in the bandi ot tho antagonists. Fire! one, two, three, was solemnly repeated by tho seconds. A flash, a crash, and a death-hke stillness ensued. For this timo, at least, it could hardly be possiblo that both had escaped unscathed. Yot there they stood unmoved add as fiim us a rock to tho uttur though pleasant astonishment ot the fow present. Mr. Sawell was, howevorv observed to raise his foot slight? ly aud was approached by a friend, who asked him, "Ate you hil?" "Well I don't know. Yes, I think I am," answered Mr. ?ewell, whose sui geom already near, pulled off his boot and alter examining his foot found that thc last shot ot Mr. Lalaurie had struk Mr, Bowell's right foot, the ball entering near the first joint of the gre it roe> coming out in the hollow of tho toot opposite the little toe. The orificas of the entry and exit wore very large, and indicated the calibre of Mr. ^lau? rie's rifle to be about sixty-two. Mr. Lalauno bad received Mr. .sewell's ball in thc left coat sleeve, almost in line with his breast, the skin of tho arm being barely scratched by tho mis? sile. At this juncture the second ot Mr Lalau? rie walked up to Mr. Sewell, to whom he ten? dered his band, remarking, "Sir, I am sorry that this thing has occurred." Mr. Sewell cordially accepted the proffered hand, and smilingly answered: "You should have no cause for sorrow. Your principal has done very well, making two oxcolluuf line shots." Aud ibo parties separated. Mr. Sewell was removed to his residence, No. 212 camp-street, and is now. wo ore happy to be able to state, progressing finoly. The affair has caused considerable excitement as both parties nie so well known iu commercial and social cheles. Tho gentlemen acting as sec? onds, also being piominent aud popular man hero, havo lent an additional interest to this sanguinary and determined conflict. Thc high? est praise is accorded the principals for their sang-froid and imperturbable etlnucss, tho bahaviorof b nb being Mpukoo of as handsome. The rem irk made by. Mr. Sewell when he lost the choice of position, thal "if his antag? onist knew how to uso his advautago, bo was a dca I nun; but be hoped be would not shoot him in thc taue, as in that event a very hand? some follow would be distigured," is ?Ilustra? tivo ot this. Taken all in all, this duel, so deliberately con? duced ami so dcturmiuodly persisted in, is ono of the most remarkable that baa occurred in this cry for years.
