Elliott blustered a little, and ap? pealed from thc decision. Corbin refused to enter? tain thc appeal. Considerable confusion ensued. Thc senators seemed to think that they were Im? posed upon,' and showed a disposition to retire from tho Held, whereupon Whipper moved that the joint assembly adjourn, which motion was considered corrlcd and the Senate retired, amid confusion. -? lt ls not probable that there will bc any moro meetings in Joint assembly this session. Many or the senators swear that they will never vote with thc House again. U this spirit ls kept up the Supreme Bench will be minus a jndgeand - the f.uii nt ic Asylum six regents. p - AN ALLEOBD TRICE. ? As was predicted, tho opponents of the bill re a. pealing the township act have struggled hard to Bs]?revent as passage. Yesterday the friends of the bill coiled lt up to receive ita third reading, but lt was not to be found. Considerable grumbling ensued, and thc opponents wee accused of hav? ing hld it to keep lt back till Corbin's amendment lo thc township act could bc passed; which accu? sation was indignantly denied. Last night Ar? nim Introduced th' folio wini; preamble and reso? lutions, which where laid over for consideration to-day: Whereas, A bill to repeal an act entitled "An act to organize townships and demie their pow? ers and privileges," has passed its third reading in the House of Representatives and two readings in tie Senate, and being ordered tobe engrossed; and whereas, the engrossing clerk hos delivered both bills, thc orginal House and the engrossed bill, to tho Committee on Engrossed Bill?, but the chairman or that committee denies its acception, therefore Ifijsoiivd, That a protestation should bc made Muhscribed by the members, before Almighty |Bnd this hanorublc Senate, that neither my ?For any other, to my knowledge, have taken ?t, or do, at this present, conceal a bill entitled WMiel to organize townships," Ac. Hs morning thc bill was found on thc clerk's pk, having been laid there during thc night. ie friends of thc bill, who are also opposed to thc phosphate monopoly, wore' determined to (t> hore their bill considered to day ir possible, and thus prevent the consideration of tho other. They ?? manoeuvred so well that neither was considered. Mt ' THE TAX LEVY. K#Xhe concurrent resolution providing for tho 'levying or taxes to meet tho expenditures for mo, was tu ken up in tho Senate early to-day for lt? third reading. Leslie thought that Barnwell County should have a levy of four mills on thc dollar, as a courthouse and Jail was to be built. Donaldson moved to amend tho resolution so as to provide that only two mills on the dollar be levied in all connues, excepting those specially cxccptci. Corbin thought that amount was suf 9 flclent, especially for Charleston County, which didn't wish to pay all, or nearly all, or the taxes, as lt had been doing heretofore. OlIARLESTSN COPNTY COMMISSIONERS. Thc mention or Charleston County brought Cain up nil standing, ready and willing to make a sp:cch, and he spoke et length, substantially ns follows: Two mills on tho dollar will give eui commissioners $100,00?. I think tb?v can spend k that. I believe Hist thc more wc them Hie I less work they will do. Out of of Hu ?^-te ilk s of Charleston, they have done ! ttlo 01 work; In fact, nearly all of the work th the) Iiiivo dona hu? been Inside of the city limits. I um wilting to give Hiern another chance though, hut I want them to understand that hereafter they will he watched with sleepless vigilance. It ls true thal the loni; list wc have against them might now be brought up, but, perhaps, if we pass their Imperfections by, they will do better. There has not been ono brh'.gc made In thc coun? ty. (100,000 have liccn spent by the. commis? sioners since last session, hut lt has been spent Inside of Charleston, to the detriment or the county. Hy thc way, thc returns of these com? missioners do not show Tor what thc money was spent. They show who received thc money, but not ror what they received lt. Corbin and Donaldson protested against the levying or three millson thc dollar as an outrage; arter which it was resolved to strike out thc word three, and substitute two; also lo allow a levy or four mills-on the dollar for Barnwell County. Thc resolution as amended was sent to thc House, which refused to concur in thc amend? ments, and a oom mit tee or conrcrenco was ap? pointed rroin each body. THE ritos ni ATE M os oro I. v. Thc presence or o large number or strangers, among whom were severn) Charleslonlans, in thc gallery or thc Senate to-day, betokened that sonic (picstlon of moro than usual Importance was coming up. Yes, a question or Importance was to bc brought up. It was thc "Bill to grant to certain persons therein named thc exclusive right to dig and minc In Hie beds of thc navigable streams and waters of thc State or South Caro? lina ror phosphate rocks and pliosphatlc de? posits." Thc Trlends of thc bill impatiently waited for the hour or one-thc time appointed for thc con? sideration of thc bill-and as the hands pointed to that hour, their eyes were turned upon Cor? bin, with looks which seemed to soy, "now the thunderer will begin." Corbin "looked foll of speech," and was evidently fully prepared to let the senators have thc ?cnettt or all thc ideas he had "crammed" on thc subject. But Just at this moment the Speaker announced that the hour had arrived ror meeting tn Joint assembly, and the senators went Into the House. When they returned into the Senate Chamber it was 2 o'clock. The supporters ot thc bill repealing the township act desired to bring up their bill, but falling in this, determined to appose thc consid?ration or the phosphate bill, and made numerous motions to postpone a consideration ol lt until arter the recess. Haync Intimated that lt was a wholesale attempt to rob thc State, and that several or the senators seemed very much interested in having ita objects accomplished. WU AT CAIN SAID. Atter every one was wearied out by thc "dila? tory motions," Coin secured the floor and speke substantially as follows: 1 wish to announce that I am In favor or a bill which will do justice to all parties. A bill of so much moment as this, alTectlDg the intcrestsof a whole people, certainly requires the coolest consid?ration, hence my mo? tion to postpone until thc 26th day or January. I have no disposition to cut on* discussion, hut rather want lt. 1 want to examine the phos? phates, thc beds, tho streams, Jiow they run; 1 want to find out their value when pulverized, when mixed with liquids, with acids; then I want to sec thc resolts In gold and greenbacks; then I can discuss the thing fairly, aud tell how much it ls worth to the parties, to the State; how much each ought to he allowed-these arc thc matters tiist aro running through my mind like lightning, but I am not Toady to take up thc subject now. Possibly, my col? league moy be ready; may know more about. _ihn mutter than thc rest of us. Possibly, he's run? ning over with more reasons than Demosthenes over had. Possibly he has len or twenty thous? and reatotis; bot I want to get these- reasonsjfo gother, I want to collect the best evidences to And out all the minutia* appertaining to the whole matter. A question or such moment we Should discuss understandingly. Theso great phosphates are like the gold mines or California, possibly to bc the gold mines or South Carolina, destined to rejuvenate this State, and bring about audra state or things as never was seen before. Thc men engaged in it will doubtless receive some of the benefits, but I wish the rich and poor, tho white and blask, the Democrats and Republicans, all to have a fair chance; and I want to discuss and know the whole subject, from Dan to Beersheba. I cannot, for the lire of me, sec why my colleague from Charleston (Corbin] docs not wish us to take time to discuss this qucs Hon; he certainly will have es good an opportu ni ty when it comes up as tho rest or us. I think some persons have Intimated some offices whlct I know he is anxious to wipe out, but non? or us who know him believe these things; we al! know him to bc an honest and conscientious mar in all transactions; at the same time I do not sei why he'll not accept the opportunity, when th? question comes up, to discuss lt. He is a cool clear-headed man, and has thc advantage or m in superiority or mimi; then he has Studied tbi subject, and also knows more about thc parties thc various Interests, manufactures, agriculture chemicals, and every other question connectci with it; ho has thc whole thing at his angers ends. We poor fellows have got to dive dowi among thc stones, debil*, marsh, and search ou by practical examination. Uy friends fron Richland and Sumter, and Chester and Marlon can't sec thc thing, or.can't sec it as clear as rn; colleague. Why not give us poor men a chance ti discuss the question. I desire time to know wha thc people want. Thc fishermen have laid ashli their smacks, tho sailors abandoned their ships thc lawycrsjald aside their dusty IdT? hooks, tu merchants and the men now engaged In pitos photo workings, arc all Interested tn thc bill. WHAT C0HB1N SAID. About 3 o'clock Cq;oln got an opportunity i soy the follow^g; The Senate seems to be actut ted id this matter by a most unaccountable pai Sion-as though it was something wrong, som? thing that ought not to be entertained. I don know whether lt ought to pass or not, but I thin lt ought to bc considered fairly. Those who in tn duccd this measure aro anxious to sec. lt consli cred, and they arc entitled to conslderatioi Why ts It, then, thal members, without giving t an opportunity of being heard, without knowla what we propose to do, without understands or giving us an opportunity of explaining ou selves to them, or to the country, vote to shi our mouths, and will not allow us to be hear? That ls not the treatment ono senator e; pects from another. I wish simply to BO that the press and the country have chosen, an various Individuals Interested havo chosen, i malign and vim ry us and say all manner things against us, because we have introduce this bill. I do beg (he senators to glvo mc un o por tn nit y of saying ? word about the bill; then they want to kill it, let them so vote. But I i want to reply to what has appeared in publ prints. Alter I have had. my Bay I do not taro tho bill ls postponed, lr senators then say th they want further time to consider lt, 1 will ha no o'i'Jc:Uon. After this speech tho Senate adjourned. T supporters or the "Bone bill" determined to ta some action In regard to lt during tho night s sion. The opposera of tho bill got there In for and at tho hour appointed Hoyne 'called thc sci tors to ord' r and Wlmbush to the chair. 1 i clerk called tho roll. The Speaker announc that there was not a quorum present, and i dared tho Senate adjourned, i ST Iii v ITEMS; Sheriff Mackey arrived to night, bringing t colored persons to tho penitentiary: Isaac Mill thrco years; Louis Banks, two years; Ahr, , Brown, one yoar; Robert Lloyd, six months; Ji i Oreen, one year. Sheriff Mackey ?l?o hron?ht e petition, eigt . by several hundred citizens of Charleston, pr I lng thc "Honorable Senate and House" not > pass tho "bono bill." ! There ls a petition, numerously signed, be - circulated, praying thc Concral Assembly to i peal the tax on manufactures. I WASHINGTON. I ASSOCIATED l'URSS DISPATCHES.] WASHINGTON, December 22. Tho Mlantonomnli and Terror will escort the Peabody funeral neel. Thc Alabama claims correspondence hos been published. KiiKlond consents to transfer the negotiations to Washington. Tn concluding thc correspondence, Secretary Fish says : "Al Hie present stage of thc controversy tho sole object of thc President ls to slate his position and to main? tain thc attitude or the United States In the vari? ous relations and aspects of this grave controver? sy with Great britain." All thc United States Circuit Judges hove been continued except Woods, Pcarrc and Sawyer. Thc following were also confirmed: Ackerman, United States attorney for Georgia; Jennings, assessor Fourth Georgia District; White, assessor Fourth Virginia District; Shelly, postmaster Rome, Ga.; Itenderllght, collector Eighth Virgi? nia District; D. II. Dolts, collector Sixth Virginia District. Thc Senate Committee on Military Affairs have been instructed to consider thc propriety or In? creasing thc number ur lieutenant-generals to three, and decreasing thc number or mnjor-genc rals to three. Sumner's new Virginia bill declares that thc present government ls provisional, and directs Ute comm anding general to call thc Legislature together within thirty days_ and exact thc "test oath." Upon tho ratification or thc Fifteenth amendment by the Legislature thus organized, thc Slate shall bc admitted to representation. Hoar's nomination for thc Supreme bench ls laid on the table, which is equal to a rejection. At the last moment thc objections to Woods as circuit Judge were withdrawn, aud he was cou? ll.i. CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS. In thc Senate, thc bill regula .lng Chinese imml. giuliou wus discussed. A wide diversity ol opinion on thc mailer was expressed. Howard, Pomeroy and Conkllng oppose many restrictions ortho DHL Williams explained that thc object or the bill was to break up thc business or Koop raanschaap and other coolie contractors. Atter a 6hort executive session, tho Senate adjourned without action on the bill to January 10. In the House, Mr. Davis held that equally In Wisconsin and Massachusetts as in Georgia, lt was thc duty or Congress io maintain a Republi? can form or government, and Congress was t bc Judge or thc roeta aud thc occasion. Mo further business was considered, and the House adjourned to the 10th ol January. .Vi' TIS AND a o ss I J' Br MAIL. A Hopeless Lobby Scheme-Thc Bl cm. phis ?nd El Paso Railroad-Fre? mont and Party on their Beam ends. A Washington letter to thc Baltimore Ga? zette says: Thc Fremont party arc not making much pro? gress here In their lobby schemes In behalt of thc Memphis and El Paso Railroad. Their past his? tory ls against them. They hove notoriously railed to keep former pledges, and there ls no reason to believe i hat they will keep those mode now. It ls not believed that they have either the means or the ability to carry out thc undertaking successfully. There are, however, others who eau and will com? plete the road and give the Sooth a great high? way to the Pacific. It ls said they will come for? ward in good time. They will first apply to thc Texas Legislature for a charter, that granted to Fremont and company having expired, and there being no probability or its renewal. Those in thc interest of the Fremont party have taken great pulns to spread abroad thc Impression thal there Is no lobby scheme, and that only a ?impie right or way ls demanded from Congress. Why, then, does thc calendar for the present session contain, among other Job?, " Senate Joint resolution, No. 0, proposed by Senator Morton,'' which provides for granting thc right of way to thc Memphis, El Paso aud Pacific Railroad, giving thc company 20,000 acres of the publio lands ? This ls, how? ever, a mero opening wedge, ir the right or way and these 20,000 acres or tho public domain are granted, there will be fresh demands; and uo railway during thc present century. The Franking Nul HO nc c. The Senate Postal Committee are in a quandary concerning what shall bc done about the abolish? ment of the franking privilege. They cannot bear lo jleld up this very impor? tant franchise, so useful during campaign times, and yet the recommendations or thc Postmaster General are not to be despised, especially In view or the lusty row ol figures presented In his annu? al report for deficiency, lt hos been proposed In tho committee to substitute an apportionment of postage stamps to each senator and member In place or the frank now allowed by law. But this measure docs not seem to meet the case, as lt would only be a dodge under which thc expenses of the government on this account would be per? petuated in another form. Some recommenda? tions must needs be made, ir only for the sake or appearances, and thc chances arc about even that thc old game will continue. But thc Postmaster General seems determined to carry hts point, and has given orders that all free mall matter going through thc postofllce daring the next six months shall bc weighed, In order that thc country may know how much it pays annually to bestow .this luxury on Rs legislators. A Spock ot War. Tho President has como into collision with thc Senate. In executive session a resolution was pussed dem; nding or Mr. Grant all the letters, In? dorsements, and other papers upon which be based lils nominations for Circuit Court Judges. It ls strongly suspected that his Excellency has made several or thc weaker appointments on lils own responsibility, and without any outside recommendation.. A committee waited on thc President with thc request and met with a point blank refusal, und an Intimation that thc Senate had better mind its own business, lt is presumed now that the august body will toko vengeance by rejecting the obnoxious appointments. Stanton's Appointment to thc Supreme Bench. A Washington letter of Saturday says: The President, accompanied by Vice-rrealdcnt Colfax, this afternoon called upon lion. Edwin M. Stanton, and stated to him that at some timo prior lo the date at which Judgo Grier's resigna? tion takes effect, he should nomlnato him to the Senate for the position of Associate Justice, thus made vacant. So rar as Mr. Stanton ls cunee rn ed, this tender was unsolicited, as I believe ho had not permitted any one to understand that he was a candidate for the position. The President thus not only gratifies his own desire to make so flt au appointment, but he recognizes a strong foci lng among the ablest men of the Republican Sarty, who have expressed a hope to see Mr. taman placed on the bench. As ono gentleman has forcibly said, "It ls equal to a constitutional amendment." Every Republican senator Have three, on Friday joined In an unsolicited request for this appointment, and yesterday a largo num? ber of thc members of the House made a similar request In a similar manner. It ls understood that Mr. Stanton signified to thc President lils acceptance of the appointment. TUE CHARLOTTESVILLE TItAGEI>r. CHARLOTTESVILLE, December 22. Mr. G. 8.

Ile had been roost kindly received by his brethren there and had enjoyed their society much; but the state of things which Induced his removal was materially changed. Then, there was an over supply or preachers herc and a scarcity there-but thc reverse now maintains. Rev. J. W.

It will certainly contribute Immensely to the vi? tality of Methodism for such able and distinguish? ed laymen to exhort preachers to their duty. lav. v. A. Sharpe protested against the want of Interest in Woiford College on the part or the clergy. He regarded Hs success of vital impor? tance to the church. Kev. Dr. Myers had been engaged in error ts to revive a similar institution-Emory College : had done what he could for Woiford College. Other collectiob? should bc met. but we want men strengthened by education to bring np these col? lections. We musi, therefore, hold un our insti? tutions of learning. We are approaching a con? flict not oxcecded In severity any that ha's taken place Blncc the day when Paul preached at Athens, and we must have educated men to meet lt. S. Bobo, Esq., of Spartanburg, urged that our ministry are not educated; wu Hiiaii lose caste tn society. The graduates of Welford College are prepared to take position and wield an influence upon men of learning as well as others. Oe met with one of them thc other day as delegate to a district meeting an a superintendent of a Sunday School. He thinks the ministry ought to preach about and explain thc obligation to give. If he wanted to get up a shout at camp-raeetlng, he would take one of these texts about giving. The proper presentation of Mils class of subjects could not fall to awaken a thrill of Joy in every heart. Rev. E. J. Moy nardie called attention to Hie fact that thc existing government had contribu? ted to the overthrow of the North Carolina Con? ference, but tho circumstance lind contributed to build up Trinity College. That Institution had about one hundred and fifty students at Its last session, and Methodist preachers ot that Confer? ence had made that prosperity for lt. Tho same state 01? things prevails In tris Slate, and WotTord College might bc rahed to thc same degree or prosperity If WC will put forth the necessary ef? fort. Rev. 8. Lander presented thc claims, and spe? cially described thc condition of Davenport Col? lege. It ls worthy ol support. Ho also denied the chargo that he had sought his appointment to thc presidency or that Institution. He was au Itinerant In spirit and fact. The report of the committee lo audit the ac? counts of Woiford College was submitted and adopted, A collection was ordered to be taken ap In the month of February to defray tho expenses ot dele? gates to the Genoral Conference.

For some lime past there has been R dearth or news In these parts, the crops having been gathered and consequently that theme exhausted, and there bel?g no important events to chronicle. Thc political atmosphere has been still, too, over since the blatant voice or thc strong-lunged Whit temore Rounded in the cars or his dusky con? stituents, some time since, a Dill account or which appeared in your columns. Ry thc way, Wnlitemore did not make mach by his attempted denunciation ot the "Star," for the worthy ?nd gentlemanly editor of that paper, R. C.

Such papers as TUE NEWS and the star arc thoms In the side or Whlltomsre and lils crew, and, probably, obnoxious also to those who ad? vocate a time-serving policy. Their noble and manly cirons In thc causo of Justice and truth will surely bc gratefully remembered when onr good old Slate rises, Phoenix like, from the ashes of her humiliation. God grant that tho day may not bo far distant.

With the consent of the Bishop of thc Diocese, I purpose, through God's asslstauco, to reopen this venerable Colonial Church. It ls now sixty years since lt has been closed, and thc old con? gregation has long since scattered, but during the past summer I have repeatedly preached In lt, and, though my services were at night, always to large and attcutlvo congregations, of both white and colored. I feel assured that there ls here a wide field for successful missionary work. Thc building, a substantial brick structure, is In good preservation, hut the Interior was much Injured during thc war. I need about ($1000) one thous? and dollars to repair lt, enclose thc graveyard, and flt up a parochial school.

Wc had wan? dered for many hours through tangled forests of Tropical shrubs and trees, somo of them emit? ting a most delicious and invigorating ode?-,, when wc suddenly came upon a large and well cultivated plantation, in Hie centre or whlee were several buildings. Entering these we found them to be thc "press houses," stills, Ae^, where thc sugar cane ls crushed lor the manufac? ture of St. Croix Rum. Over one hundred cooties were at work, and thc smell from the fermenting: vats was very exhilarating and pleasant. We were shown through tho entire establishment, and learned that all the Rum hero produced was shipped to Messrs. P. IL DRAKE A CO., New York, to be made Into their celebrated PLAKTfr. TION BITTERS. Thc peculiar good e ncc ls of thia Rum-which ls the purest and best In tho worM -are well known. Not a single case of Dyspepsia, Fever and Ague, Consumption, or any such, dis? ease can bc found on this Island, (except or in? valids come here for their health, and they are - almost ul ways cured.) Combined with Oallsayat Bark, Cascarilla and other important Ingredients, this Rum becomes PLANTATION BITTERS, and surely no finer Tonic and general Family Remedy was ever seen. Thc combination of these Bitters was first discovered here many years ago, and all [ the natives swear by PLANTATION HITTERS, and any "there ls nothing like lt."
