JI HOM OUn OWN COIIIlKSr0*NDENT.] Cot.uMDU, December 1. At I o'clock to-day the special order of thc House-to consider tho joint resolution relative to thc recognition of thc Republic of Cuba by the United States Government-was called up. El? liott, colored, Adjutant General of thc State, who Introduced tho resolution, had considerable to say In regard to-lt ; so did Banaler and other col? ored men, all taking thc ground that thc object or thc cuban struggle was to free themselves aud their slaves from boudngc. Thc few white men who opposed thc ndoptlou of thc resolution look tho ground (hut it would do no good, us thc Uni? ted States oflinlnls knew what they were about, and lu due lima would do what was best. Finally, after a long discussion, the resolution was adopt? ed by a vote of seventy-two to twenty-one. Tho colored men voled for lt nearly to a man. Of thc white Radicals who voted against lt. Tomllnson was the only prominent one. Messrs. F. T. Cly? burn, J. E. Hagood, John IL Moore, William G. Stewart, John Wilson anti W. W. Waller, Demo? crats, voted ugnlnst lt. After Hs adoption Dc Large arose, displayed two boxes of percussion caps, and oircrcd them as his contribution to the war malarial for tho Impending struggle. Tho Speaker snnppcd bim up by several strokes of his gavel, and DcLargc shot Into his scat. The resolution was sent to thc Senate and taken up about three o'clock, l.csiio denounced lt as claptrap, tho work of some rascally con? tractor nt thu North, and expressed thc opinion that thc author of lt would bc In thc State lunatic asylum In a - hort time. W. H. Nash, colored, de? sired thc United States to get into a war, and "didn't caro If lt did whip Spain or any oilier person." South Carolina wns always fond of fighting and shouldn't bc behind now. ll. II. Catii, colored, lind great sympathy for Cuba. Geneva: Jordan was there, and he certainly had hU sympathy. [Laughter.] Anyhow, he wanted the Kennte tu coiwur tu the resolution. Wright wanted the Senate to concur ats?, lint he was not HO certain about offering timi last man; although, when he canic to thin!: ?f lt. ho was. as lie was convinced that ..Senator Leslie would bc Hie lit.*' mau lu t lie United Stales to go lulu the struggle." Leslie again dcnounceil tho resolution, ?nut ex? pressed thc opinion that to adopt lt would bc tu doa very foolish thing, (lu a mut lon to concur all excepting Leslie voted tu the alllrmativo. TIIK I.AMI COMMISSION*. Karly in the morning session Leslie "arose to a question of privilege,'' saying he desired lo make sonic remarks in regard to charges preferred against Hie Land Commission in Tnt: N'BWS. .1. J. Wright, (colored,) objected to his doing any such thing, on Hie ground that If thc precedent were established the whole time of the Senate would be occupied in hearing replies of senators to attacks made upon them liv Hie newspapers. The members seemed to concur lu this opinion, but Leslie was determined to have bis say, mid did. He denied that "a prominent member of Hie Legislature" had purchased land al $7000 ami sold lt to (he Land Commission for $'?2,000, or that a judge had sold to thc commission for 11200 a tract purchased by him for iSiio. Ile went on to say that if members of other depart, inenis would not circu?alo falsehoods about his, nil would get ulong bettor : thal there wert; many things done In ibo "commission*1 for which ho was not responsible. Ile wanted the Democrats and everybody else to know that thc commission challenged Investigation. He knew Hint these ?iud oilier reports were being circulated, but he defied any one to prove that the alleged charge* of corruption were true. TUR CONTESTKn ELECTION. The report or thu Commit leo on Privilege* and Elections, in regard to Hie Abbeville election caso, was .submitted in the Senate, lt was signed by .1. J. Wright, colored, H. Huck, (Democrat.) and W. lt. Hoyt, ll recited that the committee hail given a patient and thorough investigation ol t he mat ter and round, from Htccoiinty canvasser's returns, that there were lias votes east for Colo? nel Cothrau ami noa for !.. P. Cullin; that, ac? cording to thc evidence, the polls at Calhoun's Mills were not opened until half-past t o'clock, when, according to the law, they should have been opened al ?o'clock: that three young men registered and voted on that tiny, but il was tho opinion of 'thc committee thal If these men were legally qualified to vote this registering made no difference; that, according to cullin's testimony, a man was illegally appointed to take charge of thc polls; that, also, according to his testimony and twelve allldavits, which be presented, thirty or forty voters were driven fruin tuc polls orothcrwlsc prevented from voting;thal, according to Colonel Cotbran's testimony, sup? ported by len allldavits, there was no in tim illa? tion or any preventing or voters from exercising thc right of suffrage, and this statement was sub? stantiated during thc cross-examination nf Gunn, when it was proved illili al thc close of thc polls he said ho was satisfied. Thc- report concluded willi thc expression of thc opinion that if llieo-oiii mit tee sat for a month affidavits from both par? ties would be poured in, and Hint Hie Senate only could judge which of thc two should bc stated. After thc reading of Hie above, Hoyt arose ami rct|uestetl nnd obtained leave to Introduce nu ad? ditional report, which he wished to bc consider? ed, not ns a minority, but us a supplementary re? port lo thc report offered llrst, as be and V. J. P. Owen and W. E. Rose, who signed this, concur? red in thc first but desired to go a step further. Thc report was then read, ll slated that because of intimidation, fraud and other irregularities at thc polls at calhoun's Mills lhere wos not a fall expression of oplulo.n, and conBcituonlly L. P. Gunin received a majority or legal votes, and recommended that he bo declared elected. Thc reports were ordered to bc printed ami made thc special order lor to-morrow. TAXES I'AST OtfE. A bill introduced In thc Semite in March last entitled a bill "To define thc manner of collecting taxes past due, and for other purposes." received its sccoud reading to-day, and was ordered roi thc third under thc title "To dorine thc manner o collecting taxes past, due, assessed under thc lah military and provisional governments of Souil Carolina." It provides that "all past due and un paid taxes, State or County, laid or levied mulei or by authority of the late provisional govern mont, or nuder or by virtue of military orders shall bc paltl and collected in the same matine! by Hie county treasurer, to whom thc tux eollec tors shall turn over all montes, books, tax execu Hons, and all othetpropcrly now In their posses sion, ns provided In thc tict entitled "An act ti provide for thc assessment nud taxation of prop orly, ratified thc 16th of September, 1808." ANOTHER DIP INTO THE STATB TREASURY. It ls ipiecr economy to refuse State aid to rall roads, and then consider, ns thc Senate'ls nov doing, IL IL Cain's (colored) bill providing tba thc Treasurer of- thc State bc authorized and di reefed to Issue to thc Land Commissioner bond of this State lo the amount of one million dollars with coupons, thc same to bc used under sud regulations ns may hereafter bc prescribed for th purchase of lauds In this State to bc sold fo homesteads to actual settlers. The bill was sen to the Finance Committee to-day. Of course 1 will bc favorably reported upon nnd passed. MAOISTRATES, TAKE WARNING. Thc prcscntmcnls of several grand juries, com plaining of thc loose manner In which magistrate conduct their business, has caused the prod nc Hon of n bill before thc Senate, which, lt I thought, will partially remedy the evil and sav tho State considerable expense. It provides Ria the costs which may accrue upon thc issuing o any warrant or process for any penal offence les than felony, shall follow Judgment, unless, In cns of dismissal of thc complaint, for want of prope and suniclcnt proof, the magistrate having issue such warrant or process shall be of thcopinloi that the complaint had good and reasonbl grounds for Instituting such prosecution, in whlc latter case alone shall Buch costs bo paid out c thc county treasury. In all complaints for a; sault, assault and battery, In which thc offene ls not an aggravated one, and In all case of petit larceny, lt shall be Hie duty c thc magistrate before whom such complaint mn; bc made to summarily try thc offender or effet dcrs, nud, In caso or conviction, to sentence lilnr her or them, each to pay a flue not cxcccdln ninety-nine dollars, nor less than one doihn together with costs or prosecution; tho fine a Unes to bc returned to tho county treasurer, nu by him paid Into thc State Treasury, to bc apprc printed to thc school fund. Any magistrate wh shall appropri?t o or embezzle any money or mot les collected by him for another, either by proc?s or otherwise, shall bc deemed gullly or a tnlsdi mennor, and, upon conviction thereof, shall b punished by hard labor In tho penitentiary, nc exceeding five years nor less than one year. Th bill wa? leferrcl to thc Committee on thc Jud clary, lt will probably pass without matcrli amendment. STATE CONSTABLES AHE KINOS.

Tho Snooting of R I c lt a r d ? o n front McFarland's Point of View-Sad Story of the Deserted Husband-Grant Mixed up with tho Arru I r. Tlie Radical papers In New York arc Just now wasting a good deal or sympathy upon Rich? ardson, thc victim or the recent shooting adair, which could better bo bestowed upon the deserted husband, now spending a very unpleasant lei? sure In thc Tombs. McFarland has his story ns well as Richardson, and ir shooting ls to bc con doped at all In cases or domestic Irregularity, he should bo allowed tho benefit or tho popular code. McFarland's story ls truly sad. He had lived for ulno years with hts wife-"nine years or such happiness!" he says-before Richardson managed to secure a transfer of her airecllons. "When 1 lost my property," he says, "a change came over her." He bore with her Indifference long, never consented to a separation, and finally committed thc desperate deed to which his rage against tits enemy drove him. Richardson hes badly wounded, but comforted by feminine ut ten lions and unbounded sympathy; willie Hie hus? band, w hose wife he has stolon, and whoso home he has broken up, Is In Jail, execrated aa au assas? sin, and villi Heil os cruel to his wife, a drunkard and a spendthrift. McFarland says: "lt ls n sad ending or my Ufo. But they're married. I have proor or lt. I know lc. sir. Hood Cod ! what nm I to dor My little hoy thu' I have with mc cries out for Ids mother every nigh' ; but lils mother left mc because 1 was poor. i>. 1 you ever sec my wire, slr? on, she's a nea un rm woman, highly nccompllshcd and a splendid wri? ter. She writes for tho Atlantic Monthly and for Harper's, und she mingles with ntl thc great authoresses. Yon know, Richardson ls really in lovo with lier-tho scoundrel. He'd Uko to toke her from mo, nm! live publicly with her, but he claro not. No, slr, not wltllo t live. Why, ho offer? ed to marry her, you know, and ho ptibllilicd thc fact in the Tribune. He has had Influence enough 10 keep thc caso ont of all thc papers. "You know Grant nnd Richardson arc very groat retends; and Grant, I hear, would do any? thing fir Richardson. Richardson used to ac? company Grant everywhere; and he ls said to' have great power over him. A short Hmo ngo some friends of Richardson called upon mc nud asked mo upon whnt terms I would settle thc case. I told them that I had to take au action for damages, as that waa tito only remedy left ino. They said they would Insure mo f 10,000 and a foreign mission If I would abandon tho suit; hut I told them Hint I wanted my wife. I sup? pose they could have persuaded tho President to give me a consulship to please Richardson and put mo out of the woy." "What do you think lcd your wife to leave you r?? "Society, slr; literary indies, air. Sho loved company, and style, nnd grandeur, and haVlng railed tn business, I could not support her In thc way she desired. That's all. F.very blt of lt (ho added with bitter emphasis.) will como out on thc trial. I don't know what to du about the mnttcr. You see Pm poor; I can't employ detectives to watch my wlfo or Richardson, nnd I bctlovo her lady friends want her to stay with Richardson." Thc little touch about Grant ls especially pun? gent. If correct, lt bents Forney's "Jamison Ict 'cr." Wc shall tinily look for a Presidential con? tradiction, ndtlrcsscd In esplstolary shape to "My dear Bonner."

XAi'OLEOS'S I'OIiICT. lt c ina t li o bl i Spcecli of (lie Vi <ii di Em? peror-Ali Appeal Tor Order and Lib* vi i y-HU Congratulations lo France on Ihc Progress or Freedom Through? out thc World. Thc scadon of the Senate and Corps L?gis? latif-was reopened on Monday with great cere? mony by the Emperor, who delivered thc opening speech from thc throne. It was hoped thal thc Empress might possibly return In time to take part in thc ceremonies, but she had not yet reached Paru. Thc Emperor sahl: "It ls not easy to establish regular and peaceful liberty lu France. Fer mouths past, society seemed to bc menaced by subversive passlous, and freedom compromised by thc excesses of Hie press and of public assem? blages. Hut common sense has already propel 1 v Judged these culpable exaggerations which, ufter all, nave served but to prove tho solidity or thc edifice rounded by popular smrragc. lint this uncertainty ami t ronnie must lust no longer. Thc will of thc people must bc made known. France wants liberty with order. Order I answer for; help mc. Messieurs, lo secure liberty. Hctwecn those who would chango all and those who would grant nothing, a glorious course may lie chosen." Thc Emperor then referred to tho Senntus Consul tum of September last, which he said ho had pro? posed with thc purpose or inaugur?t lug a new era of conciliation and progress. It was thc task of the Chambers to aid him In carrying ont thc plan. He proceeded to enumerate tho municipal reforms which were to bc made, lie pronounced tho situation of thc country satisfactory,' and de? clared thal the more he was ready, however, tu grant reforms thc more decided he was to main? tain the principles or the constitution. The rela? tions oPFrance with foreign powers were friendly. Sovereigns anti peoples desired pence. The Em? peror continued as follows: "We have reason to bc proud of our epoch. Thc New World sup? presses slavery ; Kassia frees tho serfs; England renders Justice to Ireland; thc bishops arc meet? ing at Koine for wisc and conciliatory purposes; the progress of science draws tintions closer to each other. While America unites thc Atlantic and Parlue, everywhere capital and Intelligence com? bine to connect bv the electric wire all na? tions. France nnd Haly will soon be Joined by a tunnel through thc Alps, and tho Suez Canal has already united thc Mediterranean and tho lied Sen. Thc Empress Is not present to-day, because I desired her to testily to thc sympathy of France with thc wonderful genius and perseverance of a Frenchman." The Emperor concluded lu Hie following words: "Messieurs, yon resume your labors after an imusiint Interruption of the ses? sion. I hope thc bottles of tho State will apply loyally the modifications lately mude lu thc con? stitution. There ls to lie a more direct participa? tion of the nation in Its own nibilrs. This will bc a new force for thc Empire. May the Chambers prove that, without running into regret able ex? cesses, Franco can support free institutions which honor civilized nations." THE REFORMS rnOMISBD, IN THE F.llPEItOR'S SPEECH. The following is a synopsis of the reforms prom? ised tn thc Emperor's speech: Mayors uro to be chosen from thc municipali? ties; the municipalities arc to bc elected by uni? versal surrrago*. communal councils are to tie es? tablished; fresh prcrognilvcs are to bc granted tho Conseils (Icncraux; the colonies to participate in thc movement; universal sum-ago ls to bc ex? tended; thcro ls tn bo a more rapid development of primary- education ; n diminution of thc Costs of Justice, and a reduction of tho war tax on suc? cessions; thc savings bnnk system ls to bo extend? ed; more humano regulations arc to lie made for thc labor of children, and there ls to bc an In? crease- of small salaries In public ofllces; useful measures' connected with agricultura nra prom? ised, ns ls an inquiry into tho < xelsc; also, a pro? ject of )nw regarding customs duties. Tim speech says tho situation or tho Empira is satisfactory; that Its foreign relations arc tho subject of con? gratulation; that Us nuances aro prosperous, and that ihc Chambers must prove that Franco ls ca? llable of sumiorllng free institutions, which arc tho honor of civilized countries.
