In reply to the House resolution, the Gover? nor transmitted a letter from Mr. Seabrook stating that he had been ordered to stop pro. ceedings against the Charleston County com? missioners by Attorney-General Chamberlain.

Leslie on the Ita m page-lit s Cse for the Ka-Klax-Joe Crews on the Stand How About that $7500-Has the State Been "Done Brown" bx Dunbar. [FROM O?B OWN CORRESPONDENT.; COLOMBIA, February 8. RECONSTRUCTION A FAILURE-A LIVE LT SCENE. The ten days for which the resolution, "to call on the United States Government for pro tion against domestic violence" was postpon? ed, (when last before the Se^e, ) having ex? pired, the matter was called up and forced to a vote by its friends. leslie wanted the con? sideration postponed for ten days, and made ? | motion to that effect. In support thereof, he said that measures of such magnitude should not be urged, unless parties urging them had good reasons therefor. It involved the open admission that reconstructed South Carolina is unable to protect itself. S wails thought sufficient reasons had been given ten days ago, and if he (Leslie) desired furtherreasons let him look at the deeds ol bloodshed dally chronicled in the newspapers. Rose said he was not prepared for the reso? lution. He had been in York, where the prominent citizens had pledged themselves to i&ep down disturbance. He wanted to give them a trial. : Leslie said that none but the weakest rea? sons had been offered lor the passage of the resolution, which was an open declaration of | "ground arms." He! old that they were not ready for that yet, and that there was still men enough in the State who thought enough ot Juslce to uphold the law. The proper remedy would be to drive out these hordes of robbers who impair the credit of the State, and Ut the government, which has steered wide of the mark of honesty, do right, and there will be order and prosperity. Nash insisted that something must be done for the protection of life and property. Since ' the last discussion on this subject, men had been whipped and driven from their homes. Here he cited the case of a man from York who had been whipped last Friday. Rose replied that the party referred to was a worthless creature, who deserved whipping. Nash, In continuing his remarks, alluded to the presence of Federal bayonets in New York, at the late election and daring the drait-riot. Leslie rose to a question cf privilege, ant ably defended the people of New York, who, he declared, never at any time astfed for Fede? ral aid. After some further remarks, the ques? tion on the motion to postpone was put and decided in the negative. In the discussion on the passage of the reso tion which then followed, Leslie cut right and ielt. sparing no one. He held the General Assembly and Governor Scott responsible for the outrages committed. The first, by passing an election law to defraud the people out of a fair election, and a militia law, which has cost the State $90,000, lor political purposes; and the la-it, by allowing his militia to run over the upper counties under such men as Joe Crews, that "wicked Joe Crews," who has refused to testify, on tbe plea that he might criminate himself. Wlmbush: "Say EKnething about the land commission." Leslie: "You should be the last man to speak 1' thereof." (Ihe knowing ones laughed.) Leslie then continued,' and gave many good and ( sound reasons why the resolution should not 1 be adopted. He wanted the Ku-Klux to kill 1 sncb men as Comptroller-general Neagle, 1 Crews and others of the 'same tribe who had brought trouble on the poor colored peopf?, and then left them to bear the brunt "Let < them (the Ku-Klux) come down here where the ! head devils are. He concluded: "Act right ; yourselves, keep the credit of the State in? tact, and then it the wild men of both parties don't behave, we will call out the moderau ? and good men and beat them down." Whlttemore made an able partisan sreech in j lav or of the resolution. After some few scat- { tering remarks by other senators, the resolu? tion wa? put to a vote, and adopted by 15 to 8, Leslie and ROBO voting with the Reform mern- , bers against it 1 JOE CREWS ON THE STAND. Joe Crew? was arrested last evening by the sergeant-at-arms, and brought before the in? vestigating committee to testify as to his share in the $17,500 transaction. He declined to make a written statement, but said he would I ? answer all questions that would not criminate | ( bim. To the question whether he bad retain? ed Dunbar as attorney, he said he had. The I " questions whether Dunbar or himself had drawn the $7500 he declined to answer. Q. (By Mr. Foster.) Was the warrant drawn to the order'of Mr. Dubbar paid to him ? A. Witness declines to answer. Q. (By Ur. Nash.) Waa not one of his orders, dated on the 27th of February, paid In September ? N 1. Witness does not recollect: witness does not conceive that he has a right to think whether Mr. Dunbar's services were worth seven thousand five hundred dollars or not; declines to put a value on such services; the ??oks will show by whom the money was drawn. Q. Was more money drawn than was neces? sary to pay tbe per diem, mileage, stationery account, Ac. ? A. There were more certificates drawn than was necessary to pay the per diem, mile? age, Ac, as the attorney, was not considered a member of the committee; there was no money asked to pay the expenses in the Fourth Congressional District, that witness knows of; does not.know of any money being drawn on the 3d or 4th of Maren by the mem? bers of tbe committee, the attorney not being considered a.member of said committee; does not remember when the matter was "fixed up;" witness generally took a receipt; has been so situated that he cannot examine the books, Ac . Q. (By Mr. Foster.) Did you consider your committee 'disbanded after the report was made to the Legislature ? A. Does not recollect that the committee was discharged; does not know that the com? mittee is discharged to this day. Q. <Bv Mr. Foster.) Do you think that the committee has a right to draw on the treasury till (aa you term lt) properly discharged ? A. Witness thinks the committee had a right to draw On the treasury, for anything that was due to the committee, till properly discharged. Beinz unable to get any more out of "Joe," the committee discharged him, and hear the matter rests for the present. THE COAL SQUABBLE. ^ - The message'of the House, insisting on their amendment of filty tons of coal being purchas? ed instead of fifteen, as agreed upon by the Senate, was read in the Senate. Leslie moved that, tile Senate insists in. its amendment, .and a message thereol be sent to the House. *which was adopted. The next step now will be a joint committee of conference, and li they fall, a committee of free conference will take the matter In hand, and if they also differ the original motion will become a law.

Settling the Vexed Questions with Eng? land-The Dominican Commission. WASHINGTON, February 9. An army officer reports that the troubles la Robesen County, Non h Carolina, are . in no# way the result of political sentiments, either one way or tbe other. He thinks thc citizens, by united action, as posse comitatus under the sheriff, could suppress the outlawry which is fast devastating that section. The British minister, by instructions from his government and in a spirit of friendship, proposes to tbe United States the appointment of a Joint commission, to sit at Washington, to settle the fisheries and other questions. The government has accepted the proposition in a cordial manner, and the British minister re? plies, of date February 1st, that a settlement of the Alabama claims will also be essentlal|to the restoration of cordial and amicable rela? tions between the two governments. Minister Schenck will sail for England on the first of March. It is understood he will have lull discretionary power to settle the Ala? bama question. * There ls no news whatever trom the Ten? nessee with the Dominican commissioners.

The death of Covode was announced and the House adjourned. The Queen's Message on the Alabama .Claims-The President Nominates Commission. The Senate was In Executive session from half-past 2 until 5 o'clock, on the correspond? ence between Fish and Thornton. The follow? ing is an extract from the Queen's speech : "I have therefore engaged In amicable communi? cation with the President of the United States, in order to determine the most convenient mode of treatment lor these matters connect? ed with the fisheries. I have suggested the appointment of a joint committee, and I have agreed to a proposal of the President that this commission be authorized at same time and in same manner to resume the consideration of | questions growing out of the late war. This arrangement will, by common consent, In? clude all claims for compensation which have oi may be made by each government, or Its | citizens, upon the other." The President's message to the Senate-the contents of which have Bot transpired-ls based upon the above. There was no serious opposition In the Senate to the plan or to the commissioners nominated. Delay In the ratf Hcatlon of both, however, Is asked for, until the documeniB could be printed, so that sena? tors might have a more thorough understand ng ef the matter. The Senate confirmed John B. G. Pltken as general appraiser of merchandise for the | South, vice Lucius D. Kellogg, resigned. The President nominates Secretary Fish, Minister Schenck, Judge Nelson, ex-Attornev Seneral Hoar and Senator Williams as com? missioners on the part of the United States to ict in conjunction with a similar committee ippointed by England for the settlement o? .he Alabama and fishery questions.
