[FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT.]
COLUMBIA, November 30.
m In the Senate to-day very little tinniness of
Interest was transacted, and ditto might bc said
of thc House. However, tho proceedings in thc
latter assumed a rather novel character for a
body legislating for a State. It was "tho scone,"
as Elliott, colored, very properly said, "of a dis?
graceful exhibition." Bnt before entering upon
an account of that, lt would bc well to let the
readers of TUE NEWS know what la thc opinion
of one or two legislators in regard to
JUDOS CARPENTER.
Presentments of thc Grand Juries of se* al
conntlea were read; amoug them, one from thc
Jury of Ornngcburg County denouncing thc
magistrates or the comly as Incompetent, and
as thorough nuisances, and requesting the Legis?
lature to take some measures which would insure
the appointment of men belter lilted tu perform
thc duties than magistrates usually arc. It was
understood that this clause of thc presentment
waMr.s.-rtcd by request of Judge Carpenter, who
lt sectas has recently rendered a decision relative
to homesteads which did not meet thc approval
of the colored people-among whom aro DcLargc
and Hausierer their uncomplimentary remarks
.about that ofiiciai lie au expression of their feel?
ings. DeLarge w*und up lils remarks by express
lng Hie opinion thai thc Judge had sworn to Im
, partially perform lila duties, and had been con?
fided in, but had proved recreant to his trust.
THAT OISORACKVI'L SCENE.
Shortly after this, the hilt t? amend the act pro?
viding for the enumeration ot thc inhabitants of
thc Stale was taken up for passage. It provide-)
for the repeal of the section of thc act for paying
tho census takers up to thc first of November, and
extends thc ttme to thc first of December. This
provoked a hot discussion, during vhlch De
Large spoke. John B. Wright, colored, of Charles?
ton, denounced the censas takers generally, and
intimated that DeLarge desired to dip his hands
too deep Into thc State treasury; first, he wanted
six dollars a tiny as a member ot the Legisla?
ture and five dollars as a census taker.
DeLarge attempted lo reply, but Alderman Mc?
Kinlay, after every sentence, "nroso to a
point of order," which persistency Speaker Moses
(quailed by always deciding that tho point
was not well taken. Re lt known that, prob?
ably, McKinlay intend) introducing at an
early doy a bill to exempt certain brands
or minor? nom taxation, amii probably, before
conting to thc lionne hail been looking nt thc
brnnibj with ii vi<>?- or determining winch should
be exempted ; nuil for ibis or sonic oilier rea mm
he became very garrawilli and obstinate. He at?
tempted to ?nv something, what he did not know,
nt least bis nu.Hence illil not, Ile was frequently
CUllCil loonier, unit became Imllgunnt, lo which
|ioiin DcLarg? also urrtveil. Observing nils. Mc?
Kinlay attempted bis conciliatory powers, mui
proceeded to relate something, which, ns he re?
marked, "would make the member.--smile." Ills
story was very rambling, mni embraced scraps er
almost nil of the itiformutiou he possessed ; but
Hie gist of il was that he was once n tailor, mid
met Hel.urge's mother and admired her very
much nnd wauled lo mnrry her, ?md, (with ?in
Insinuating smile,) Bah! how nen riv bc came to
i-oing dob's father,. nd how nearly liol) came to
ticing his son.
During this ont burst there wns thc utmost dis?
order. Many of the members wercstnndlng, uud
nearly all rising io "points ur order." 'Hie
speaker, willi his gavel and shouts for order, was
making ns much fuss ns nearly ali combined. Fl
nolly, Dcl.arge, who did not appear lo like Hie
conciliatory mond, nm- the man whocamesonenr
being related to him, got n chance to speak, and
intimated that McKinlay was strongly impregna
ted with "morphine," ?iud Hint Wright wns loo
eownrdly to go outside or "thc rour wulla or the
city" of Charleston-fearing to "trust bis precious
carcass" where there wns n chance of getting lt
Injured, and further he (Wright) was not so ex?
traordinarily honest; that he knew nothing of
the census or nny other law; that lie
lind consistently and with a perseverance worthy
of a better cause absented himself from lils sent
Inst session and neglected his duty ns a legisla?
tor. Having devoted this much of his remarks to
demolishing lils opponents, (McKinlay ami
Wright,) the former nil lite while smiling in a
sickly, feeble sort of way, and the latter laughing
until, like Santa Claus' -stomach, lie "shook
like ii bowl full of jelly," he proceeded lo talk of
himself, und asserted Hull thc census wns n sore
subject for bim to talk of, ns he lind lost money In
taking thc CCHSUS or Charleston County. After
concluding lils remarks he went over to Wright's
seul and shook hands with him, whereupon lie
laughed nil thc more.
ELLIOTT EXPRESSES II 18 OPINION.
At this point Klllott (colored) nrose. Elliott oc?
cupies thc same position In thc House that ex
Alderman T. J. Mackey occupied in Council after
that aired lonnie attempt to increase thc weight
or his nephew by shooting lend Into him. When?
ever he prose thc Aldermen looked nnxlously first
ut the doors of thc chamber to sec if they were
open, then ut him, to ascertain, if possible, at
once what was his mood. Now, Elliott having
cowhided a white carpet bagger, and thereby
established a reputation for bravery und reckless?
ness, lils colored brethren, whenever he arises,
look at him with an expression which means ad?
miration slightly allay ci with uneasiness that hu
may "break ont." However, ns slated, he
nrose, nnd nil eyes were turned to him, and ho
commenced n hearty abuse ot Hie recent scene or
disorder, and lind succeeded in characterizing lt
as a "most disgraceful exhibition,'' when Alder?
man McKinlay obtained thc noor and desired to
know, or, rather, lcd the members to infer that
bc desired to know, if he was one or those who
had contributed to thc dlsgracciul exhibition;
whereupon Elliott stated that he was not par?
ticularly referred to. Alderman McKinlay I lie?
smiled beulgnantly and sat down, which seeraod
to bc a signal for everybody ebie to get up. Mo?
tion followed motion, points of order were raised,
thc Speaker's gavel kept up an Incessant rapping,
but quiet was not restored until thc shouters were
hoarse. In thc lull that ensued, a motion to pass
tho bill was made and carried, and thc members
sank back in their scats exhaust od from laughter
nnd their exert lons.
THAT CENSUS.
During Hie debate, Mr. spin nick, Commissioner
of Agricultural Statistics, received several raps
Tor not rurnlshlng thc proper books to thc c?MI?
BUS takers by thc 15th or April, as he was directed
to do. What was probably neglect-lt could not
have been any desire to save tho State any ex?
pense-really caused a saving to Ute Slate. Had
he rurnlshcd the booka to bia subordinate otllccrs
at the time designated, and the census taking
then commenced nnd continued to the 1st ot No?
vember, which was the time Axed for the final
report of thc subordinates to Hie commissioner,
thc expense would have been largely greater
than lt already lias been, tor thc simple reason
that very few or these otllccrs would have felt un?
der L ny obligations lo decapitate themselves offi?
cially, and instead or thc Stale having to pa; one
hundred and sixty-one officials from thc time
when thc bunks were officially deliv?
ered, which was about the ilrst of June,
lt would have been compelled to pay them
rrom April 15th. Now, let ns eec what economy
(accidental) has been effected by this delay, no
matter how caused; for Mr. Sparnlck has neither,
BO far a? I am aware, been called upon to explain,
nor has he volunteered to do it: From April leth
to June 1st, sny roriy-flvc dayB, the pay or thirty
one cider census takers, at $S per day, would be
16076; one hundred and thirty assistants, at $4
per day, would bc $'?3,400-in all, $30,37t. And
yet the work wns almost complete, notwithstand?
ing the delny In furnishing the books. Only a few
counties were unfinished, and thc censas takers
of these, taking advantage of their necessities,
proposed thc chango in thc law. or course ne
"discrimination" can bc made, and ntl censas
takera will apply for thc benefit ef thc provisions
whether their work was done by thc il rsi uf No
vembcr or not.
CHARLESTON FREE SCHOOLS.
In both houses today waa presented thc repon
of the Commissioner of Free Schools of the Cit]
of Charlcstoa for the year ending September 30
1S60. lt was read and referred to thc Commit lei
on Education, il shows that during thc yeai
there were 6252 pupils-3171 white and 2081 colo
red; that the average attendance ot the forme
was 2025, at an average cost or $1115, and Hu
average attendance of thc latter sso, at an aver
agc cost of $12 ci, and that Hie total cost of main

that altogether ho is incompetent, and dlscrlml

he nentenccs a colored mon to twcnly-llv
years' imprisonment, he warns him not lo appen

bc 80 unfortunate to do so "lils dose will oe dout

groes Hms sentenced ure not In danger of lncui

expires in a few months, an?; possibly thc Hm
may bc made shorter by impeachment.

The Labor Convention has been pretty thor- \
ouglily discussed, und is pretty generally under?

cept the laborers themselves. While all good
men desire Hie good or both thc laborer and Hie

the politicians have hurried in this convention
lor thc put pose or manufacturing capital tor the
next Bummer's campaign. Thc movers lu the

believe-as ho hos hitherto done lo hts sorrow
whatever thc well-dressed carpet-baggers teil

whatever may be done, it is another "forty
acres and a mule.'' Huge, who has been har?
anguing negro crowds, teils Hiern to demand
higher wages. Why does he say so? Hcrnusc
lils saying so will make them think that he ls
their friend and vote for lt i m next elect ion. Hnge
really knows ns well us any one else that such
speeches will result lu injury to thc negro, and
yet makes them. He is therein nu Incendiary,
to keep up thc antagonism ot races. lie cares no
more lor thc negro than he docs for a "dirty

Hon Platt seems to have taken a correct cstlmata

Thc Irlends or lils Excellency will tic pained to
learn Hint he has been visited tiy a painful mis?
fortune, lt is not spoken of publicly, but m arly
everybody knows Hint his Excellency lins become
dour-utterly dear-In one eur. The secret trans?
pired Without his Excellency's permission; bili ls
out no less. The hearing or Hie other car ls per?
haps a Utile keener than before. Ills Excellen?
cy's misfortune ls made apparent by the rac', that
he ls stone deur to all thc news about thc burning
of Democratic gin-houses, dwellings and store?
houses; to all information about the Illegal arrest
of Cochran, lu Abbeville; thc Incendiary and
criminal threats of ti ullin at Hodge's Depot, when
be sahl thc death ol Randolph should lit uren ?red
by thc negroes; thc similar crime or thc other
Curtin at Ninety-six. And to all such ucts,
although they arc clearly committed against
thc peace aud dignity or "our beloved State,"
bis Excellency never hears such things, and
from this wc know that he ls deaf In one ear
On the other band, when a storehouse of a broth?
er of a Radical senator ls burned In Sumter, his
Exccltcndy bursts forth Into proclamations of
outlawry, martial-lawry, constabulary, Rubbard
lawry and other fierce thing!-. About that store?
house that waa burnt in Sumter, there Boom? tn
be some hitch yet; Tor thc Insurance agent has
refused to pay the insurance, and some sugges?
tive BurmlBcs arc afloat as to why bo refused,
and, lr thc insurance waa above thc value of the
property lost, (aa ls alleged,) these surmises may
have something in them. At any rate, hts Ex?
cellency beard about that store-house, and he did
not hear about the three gin-houses that were
burned by incendiaries during Fair week, lt
ls Just BO with bis Excellency's eyes-he sccs with
but one. All these things unheard of by him
.were In the newspapers; but he never arno them,
lt was a good deal so with the Dine Ridge Rail?
road. Last year, tn bis first message to the Leg?
islature, his Excellency recommended that body
to take into "earnest consideration thc expedien?
cy or furnishing thc company such timely aid ns
would secure Hs speedy completion." That was
lost year; but now his Excellency "doesn't ter lt"
at all. Nor docs he sec thc Columbia Canal. This
may bc a cataractous film of the State-bond
ologtcal character. This word, Statc-bond-ologl
cal ls a medical term, which ls used because hts
Excellency ls reported to have been a physician
In Philadelphia about a dozen years ago, and he
of all others will appreciate lt. However it may
be, thc cataract in bis Excellency's eye (only one)
gives much concern to his Immediate friends.
THAT i'EN'lTSNTIABY.
Thc Governor's message upon this lustttutlon is
a clear vindication or his mastery or thc situa?
tion. There was for some months a contest be?
tween the pardoning power of IIIB Excellency and
the cscaplug power of thc supcrlntcndeut. Th?
contest lias run on for exactly ten months, and
Hie result ls, that while Oovcruor Scott has par?
doned 130 convicta, Superintendent Stoibrand has
allowed to escape only 10. Thc superintendent
hos been distanced. Ho has turned loose upon
the State only 10 felons unpunished and ready for
prey, while ala Excellency lias poured Into our
population-the population of "our beloved
State"-130 such characters. Thc superinten?
dent modestly asks nu Increase or 13000 to bis
salary, but docs he snpposo that a party to which
he has contributed only 10 votes in ten months ls
going to extend his pay like thal?
rr sits.
The Broad River Bridge Is up as to the frame?
work. The abutments and flooring arc nearly
ready, and it is expected to be ready for crossing
Li a short time. This bridge is of great impor?
tance to tho country trado with Columbia, and
will greatly facilitate Hie supplying the city with
provisions from that section of country lying be?
tween the Dread and Saluda Rivers.
Mr. Jolson's Public School bill will probably at?
tract a great deal of discussion in the House, as
it-or ono like lt-did last year. Thc dirtlcnlty In
the way of on Immediate passage of lt seems to
bo In thc text-book matter. Who shall select
text-books, seems to be a nut or some impor?
tance. Tho friends of education everywhere look
with Intense Interest to Hits bill, in the hope that
something will come of it to set thc young heads

[FltOM OUR OWN COIIRESPONOENT.]
WASnINOYON, November '?9.
Thc President's recent declaration that he
should not recommend any reduction In the rates
or Internal taxation, hos been met by vigorous
protesta from thc West, where trade languishes
and where lt ls round almost impossible to get
currency enough to move grain to thc Eastern
markets at prices even below thc old coin stand?
ard. lt ls in this depression that thc administra?
tion proposes to continue to exact a portion or
Hie p -'.uctlve capital of Hint section, and to keep
up a constant drain on thc volume of currency
by collecting Its taxes and removing tho revenue
to Washington. In fact, so great have been these
representations that it is semi-officially given out
thal thc annual message will, after all, suggest a
modification of taxes, white Western members
unreservedly declare that they shall vole for a
large reduction of taxes, and for legislation that
shall give thc West a more equal volume of cur?
rency. They have the facts to sustain them.
Thc Internal revenue receipts for Hie p rebe nt fiscal
year will exceed twenty millions of dollars In
excess or the very liberal estimate made by the
Treasury Department, and ot course that amount
la wrongfully taken from thc capital or the coun
i try. But whether Mr. Hunt welt or Mr. Delano op?
pose any reduction in taxation, ll is very evident
that thc House, at least, will have a majority
against them. I Dad among thc newly-arrived
members a general disposition to reduce the In?
come tax from the present oppressive rate; and
they ore not at all pleased with Mr. Delano'? Iden
that ll Is the moat equitable or all or the Internal
taxes.
During the last Congress un effort was made In
an appropriation bill to pay such officers as were
appointed by the Treasury and other departments
In the soulb, who bad performed honestly and
faithfully their official duties, bat who bud been
refused their salaries because they were unable
to take the oath prescribed by the act of 1862,
commonly known aa tho iron-clad oath. Thin
effort railed in one house, but will be renewed at
the coming session, and ll ls more probable will
succeed, aa thc opponents of Hie measure have
become more even-tcmpered and better convinced
thal these men should bo paid. Thc official cor?
respondence shows Hint the government could
not, at Hie time these officers were appointed, get
trustworthy and competent men to do its work
who could take thc Iron-clad oath. There ls no

duty; but thc specious point ls made by certain
Congressmen tbnt they held their offices In viola?
tion ot law, (because they could not take that
particular oath,) and, therefore, should not be
paid I Dut thc government accepted their ser?
vices, and ls in duty bound, na n matter of equity
and Justice, to pay them; and with all its sins ot
omission Congress, lt Is not believed, will refuse
at this session to make thc necessary appropria?
tion.
The President has substantially Inlshcd his
message, lt will not make moro than two col?
umns and a hair or solid type In THE NEWS, and
will bc telegraphed, and not sent in advance to?

about thc contents of this document arc qnltc
useless, for no one hos y ct seen ll but thc President
and lils private secretary-all tho other state?
ments to tho contrary notwithstanding. Mr.
Grant wrote his own Inaugural, as everybody ad?
mits who read lt. He hos also written hts first
annual message to Congress, as everybody will
doubtless admit when they read lt. Grant ls
vain-bia friends aro beginning to admit that
ana he is particularly so on "State papers." Thia
waa illustrated when he sent his first special mes?
sage to Congress, asking tor the repeal ot a tlmc
honorcd statute, so thal ho could appoint A. T.
Stewart Secretary or the Treasury. That was the
only Important step be ever took without con?
sulting his close friend and adjutant. John A.

The President says (hut Ccncr.il Cunby having
reportcil Hint the Virginia election was one of the
fuirest ever held, ami Hie Legislature having rall
lied the Fifteenth amendinenl, there ls nothing in
the woy to prevent Hie Immediate admission or
thc State. He will recommend that In his mes?

THE NATIONAL HOARD OE TRADE.
RICHMOND, VA., December 1.
Thc National Hoard of Trade met at noon in
the capitol. Frederick Frnley, or Philadelphia, ls
president. Prayer was offered i>y nev. Charles
Alinuogorodo, of Uta-Vplsoopai Cl m rc li. .Thoma*
W. McCausc, of thc Richmond Chamber of Com?
merce, submitted an address of welcome.
General Walbridge, In lils uddrcss, argued that
national aid ought to bc given to the South to
enable her to repair Hie ravages of war. li?
scouted thc Idea of repudiation. Taxes would
pay the debt, and taxes would be easily borne ff
thc government nlded in developing thc resources
ot the country. In closing he eulogized thc
Grant administration.
At thc afternoon session applications for mem?
bership were received from thc Richmond Corn
and Flour Exchange; Augusta, Georgia, Boarder
Trade, and Petersburg Merchant's Exchange.
Permission waa given to the Hoards of Trade or
Toledo, Ohio, and Pittsburg, Pennsylvania, and
Merchants' Exchange of Peoria, illinois, to with?
draw from connection with the National Board.
Thc business programme was then commenced.
The consideration or thc drat four propo?
sitions waa postponed. Proposition fifth,
being the uniform measurement of grain,
"was taken up and resolutions adopted that the
number of pounds to constitute a bushel should
be uniform in all States, so long aa thc bushel is
used In trade; that (he cental system should be
adopted in transferring all commodities usually
sold by the bushel, and that measurement by
bulk should be abolished. The sixth proposition
waa In regard to tares and short weight. On this
proposition resolutions were adopted recommend?
ing local boards to adopt thc role that tares shall
bc thc actual weight of thc package at the time or
sale in all transactions, and to Insist on full
weight or measure In anieles purporting to bc or
a certain fixed standard, but which arc sold by
parcel or package. The seventh proposition waa
in regard to uniformity in executing convey?
ances of land. In regard to this proposition
a committee waa appointed to prepare and
recommend to all State Legislatures statutes to
be adopted for thc form and general requisites or
conveyances or lands. Thc eighth proposition
was la regard to uniform practice In United
States District Courts; and a commlttco was ap?
pointed to prepare a statute to be urged tor use
in all tho United States District Courts in collec?
tion of debta where the parties were residing In
different States.
State Leglalalutes were to be requested to re?
peal all license laws discriminating'against non?
resident traders. This resolution created an Im?
mediate discussion, Its opponents arguing that lt
was an effort of thc large Eastern cities to do all
the business for the smaller cities of the West
and South without paying any tax thereon. Its
friends urged timi it was only In keeping with tho
spirit of thc age to which local license laws were
opposed; that lt was tho result of an enlightened
commercial sentiment-domestic free trade ls to
come, and might as well be accepted at once.
Thc resolution waa favored by Messrs. Opdykc
and Chlttcndcn, or New York, Rapes, of boston,
and others, and opposed by Messrs. Geno, of ('lu- !
clnnatl, Dove, of Chicago, and Hastie, of Charles?
ton, S. C. Thc resolution was adopted by a voto
of forty-one to twelve. The board then adjourned
till to-morrow.
Tho hoard got through nearly half thc business
In Its programme to-day. The citizens will give
a ball in their honor on Friday night, In which
many prominent men not merchants are inter?
ested. Au excursion to City Point and a return
by thc way of Petersburg battle-field takes place
at tho end of the week.
There are thirty-four members or the board
present representing tho Hoards or Philadelphia,
Wilmington. Del., Portland, St. Louis, Charleston,
Dubuque, Detroit, New York, Boston, Baltimore,
Buffalo and Chicago.
Thc Chambers or Commerce of Mllwanklc, New
York, Richmond, St. Paul, San Francisco and
Cincinnati; tho New York Produce Exchange, the
Norfolk Merchants' Exchange, Philadelphia Com
merdai Exchange, Rainmore and neston Corn
and Flour Exchanges, aro also represented.

ps- NOTES FOR DECEMBER, AD?
DRESSED TO THE FEEBLE AND DEBILITATED.
This ls a trying season for Invalida, Indeed for all
who aro not blessed with robust constitutions and
iron frames.
Cold lias come upon us suddenly, sealing up tho
open pores, and scaling in, as lt were, any seeds
of disease that may have been lurking tn Hie sys?
tem, but which remained undeveloped so tong as
the waste matter of thc body and all acid and
unwholesome humors were freely discharged by
evaporation from tho surface and through tho
bowels.
A tonic, aperient and alterative medicine ls now
needed to Invigorate the vital powers depressed
by a low temperature; to stimulate and purify thc
secretions, and lo flt thc Iwdy to endure, without
inconvenience, pain or danger, thc sudden cli?
matic change which ushers In tho winter.
The only preparation which will fully meet this
almost universal need, and will thoroughly and
safely perform tho Important work, ls tho leading
tonic and alterativo of the agc, HOSTETTER'S
STOMACH BITTERS.
This popular specific Improves tho appetite, In?
vigorates the digestive organs, regulates the flow
of bile, enriches the blood, calms Hie nerves, r??
noves constipation, promotes superficial circula?
tion and evaporation, and being composed solely
of wholesome vegetable clements, with a pure
stimulant as their diffusive vehicle, may lie taken
by the weakest without fear. Tho flavor la agreea?
ble, for although the Bitters aro a potent medi?
cine, they contain no nauseating clement.
