VOLLME XI.-NUMBER 1774. CHARLESTON, FRIDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER I, 1871. THE STATE CAPITAL. 41 -. SCENES IN THE LEGISLATURE. Bowen's Bilious Speech -HU Feigned Attack upon tile Blas;-A Decided Sow la tko Howe. [PBOM OUR OWN COBXSJSFONDINT.] COLUMBIA, S. C., December 1. Tbe proceedings in the House were very effectually enlivened to-day by a contest .over the admission of the newly elected member from Charleston and an unexpected amount of bile and no little profanity displayed. Previous to this trouble, however, came a little set to between Jones, of Georgetown, and the speak? er, when the former rose to know whether the Senate had not violated the constitution by adjourning for more than three days without the concurrent action of the House. He was curtly* answered by the speaker that the House had nothing to do with the action of the Senate, and he subsided, snubbed but not conquered, as was afterwards shown when the main battle of the day commenced. Then came the continuation of the balloting for members of Bowley's pap committee. Thu vented measure of economy, which had al? ready cost the State more than lt shows any sign of saving, In delaying the Legislature for about two days, occupied fully two hours mere to-day. at the end of which time the fol? lowing members were declared elected : Cain, of Abbeville; Wilkes, of Anderson; Hayne, of Barnwell; Myers, of Beaufort: Jervey, of | Charleston; Yocum, o? Chester; Ll ule field, ot Chesterfield; Worley, of Clarendon; Thomas, of Colleton; Humbert, of Darlington; Cain, of I Edgefield; McDowell, of Fairfield ; Bowley, of j va a rw'ii awawFSjai j vionc, wa uumvuo, * - *. j ? va ? I Lexington; Myers, of Marion; Thorne, of * Marlboro': Corwin, o? Oconee; Doyle, of New? berry; Jamison, of Orangeburg; Hagood, of | Rekens; Thompson, of Richland; Smith, Of Spartan burg; Singleton, of Sumter; Mobley, ot Union; Frost, ol williamsburg, and Meade, of York. This brought the House to within fifteen minutes ot three o'clock, and the members be? gan to fear that they would miss the real fhn of the day, which they knew was still to come. Accordingly, Jervey. of Charleston, moved a suspension of the rule ot the House, that nude three the hour of adjournment, ana this being agreed to, the members shook themselves out of listlessness, lndnced by the last proceedings, and pricked up their ears while Jones, of Georgetown, rose to ask the date of resigna? tion ol Hardy, late member from Charleston. The speaker replied, November 14, 187L?and Immediately proceeded to read the returgSot .the late speolal election in Charleston County. On the announcement ol Bowen's election a dosen members were on their feet, and shouts of **Mr. Speaker," combined with the-dui ol that officer's hammer, made a lively chorus. Finally, the lungs of Jones; Of Georgetown, prevailed. He stood shouting that he rose to a point of order. The speaker decided that he could state his point of order, and estated the gratitude of ail peace-loving men by adding that he should net make a speech. The Babel of voices continued, however, but ajong the uproar could be heard such shouts from Jones as "The writ of election ls Illegal" -'.forgery"-"the clerk's name was Illegally signed"-"men lying la jail now tor Bowen." Down came the speakers gayel with a perfect fusilade of raps, and Jones was ruled oat of order. Jones appealed to the House. Mob ley began shouting "A point of order," only to be ruled out by the excited speaker. AU this time Jamison, of Orangeburg, was easiog his mind of a vocif?rons tirade, of which the words "illegally elected" could only be made out. Mobley struggled- to his feet again, but the chair decided the point ol order not well taken. Jamison moved a post? ponement to Wednesday, bot was enc -short by Davis, of Charleston, with the' ejkssertlon that Georgetown and Orangeburg had no business to' Interfere with the Charles? ton election. This was too much for Jones, who got on bis feet again with a "question ol {>rivilege." He knew no county-he was a eglalator for the State; asked no odds of any county, sod nye ids word ot honor as a legis? lator tor ?he State that he was prepared to fro ve the Illegality of the election oy affidavit, hen arose again the burly form of Davis, from Charleston, who managed to ejaculate between the raps of the speaker's gavel, which ail thia time was pegging away like a whole Sark of artillery, that he wouldn't be tua own; the gag law couldn't silence him, and he would not yield to Orangebdrg or George? town, or any other courtly. He moved to in? definitely postpone the motion to postpone the matter until Wednesday. Then Dennis moved for a call of the roll on the last motion, ' and the call waa ordered by the speaker, and it resulted, after adosen interrup? tions, in the motion being lost by twenty-one to sixty-one. Then came Hurley with the ut? most suavity and the simple remark that he d&u't understand it. This caused a roar ot laughter, the idea that anybody should under- J stand it being regarded as particularly rich. The speaker, st!li floundering, suggested that the roll be called again. Then came a person? al altercation between Jones and Byas, which, ld the midst of the din, became mere panto mime, with a running accompaniment by the j perpetual travel. Jones w is noliced to plenti? fully Interlard h la rema* xs with profanity. He appealed, vaguely from the speaker to the Constitui lon o. the State of South Carolina, and this appeal being silenced by the din of the gave', he favored the House with hlg * opinion that "it was a d-d Imposition any wa. r." The call of the roll was recommenced, and continued amid a buzs of assn? objurgations, and no little pro? la ni ty, resulting In another iefeat of the mo? tion to postpone, by 23 to 64. Byas arose and moved a reconsideration, bat was silenced by an appeal to the previous que. lion; and Jones created a slight diversion by yelling for a read? ing of the constitution. The shaker decided In fkvor o? the previous queen in, which was, he said, whether Bowen should be qualified or not Then Harley oommenad to pour oli apon the troubled waters by saying he was glad the question was, at list, to be de? cided on its merits; he was i ore hla friend Bowen would be given his seat, and he thanked the gentleman Troca Orangeburg for the sentiment that ma orilles should ?e respected as well as minorities. This tufted Jervey, but he incaitiousiy began a series of very invidious ct mparlsons be? tween the newly-elected and the'gentlemen from Orangeburg and Georgetown. Jamison arose to reply, but was called to order, and Wilkes protested that thia was not a question of .personality, hut of law, and that the Presi? dent's pardon ol Bowen prevented his crimes being brought up against him in this case. A running and rapid debate ensued between Bowley, Byas, Jones, Jamison and the speaker. Finally a vote was taken on ?he main ques tiCfe, resultlDg in seventy-three votes In lavor of Bowen to twenty-two against him, and he was called to the bar or the house and sworn by the-speaker. He then began hu maiden speech, saying he was not surprised at the opposition the presentation of his credentials had met with that day. Under the circum? stances it was no more than might have been expected. The two main- points of objection had been the legality of th . writ and the crime of which he had stood arraigned at tbe bar ot Justice, and tor which be had subse? quently received the Presidenta! pardon. The first question bad seen set aside by the decis? ion of the House; In regard to the second he bad Only to remark that what he had done he believed to be right, that he would adopt the same coarse agnin should he be placed in similar circumstances, and he waa fully prepared to abide the consequences of nia act. ic had also been whispered In the House and other places that hts object in seeking admission- to that House as one or ia members was to become an alder and abettor in the frauds and corrup? tions perpetrated upon the pedple of South Carolina. He desired to say io refutation of the slander that au th- millions ot which the people had been robbed would not be suffi? cient to buy him. The State had been robbed of seven millions o? dollars. Frauds and peculations to an unprecedented extent had been commuted, and, belore i hat session ter? minated, be would be found hunting down to 'their last stronghold the defrauders and oor . nipt ion lats. The tisse of the House was be ^ coming short, the hour was late, and he x would detain them by no farther remarks. Mr. B >wen subsided, and he had no sooner taken his seat than he was surrounded by a crowd of admirers? among whom, strangely enough, were the very members who had been A the loudest In their denunciations and the most strenuous in their efforts to deprive bim ot his seat But the farce was over, the war paint was rubbed off, and the necessity for simula? tion ended, when the curtain was rung down by the adjournment of the House till neon to? morrow.

A LIBEL UPON OCR PEOPLE To make Governor Scott's malignant nile sage complete, we print the following par graphs which were, by accident, omitted (roi the copy furnished to THE NB WE : The two parties in the State during the can paign, to which these extracts relate, [viz, tb extracta from THE NKWS, and other papers, ran their respective candidates upon pla forms that were almost identical In terms, an were alleged by the opposition to be identic* In principle. The fact, therefore, that thoa who claim to possess all the intelligence and who do possess much of the potents wealth ol the State, were so utterly defeated cannot be referred to mere party difference* Nor can lt be explained by charging snob dc feat to those who are offensively termed, "cai pet-baggers'1 and 'Scalawags," for the ritaibe of whites who are active Republicans in this?tat may almost be counted on (he. fingers of a nan hands. The cause Hes deeper than this. It I doubtless doe to the '.negro's'' Just perceptloi Of character, either Intuitive or derived fror long experience and close observation, wale enables him to look beneath .the mere plank of a platform, and discriminate between tho? who are loyal and those who are disloyal b the government of bia country. .Hence, h would unquestionably vote aa ne does, evei though every white man In the Bepubll can party in tole State ahould go ove to ?the opposition. He doubtless also per celves that these men bear tue same reta tlon to the national Democratic party, of w h iel they claim to ce members, that the men guerilla or bushwhacker, plundering anc murdering on the outskirts of a great army does to the regular soldier la Us ranks. These appeals were quickly responded to Ia many counties of the op-country bauds o armed horsemen, thoroughly masked, rode a midnight to the houses of peaceable Republl cana and shot them down in cold blood Colored men. Republicans, charged will offences, and imprisoned on probable cause were taken from the Jail and inhumanly butch ered, to evade the effect of a writ of habeas corpus which had been issued la their behalt Hundreds ot Republicans, white aa well ai colored, law-abiding citizens, were tied u trees and whipped, and their bodies lace ra tee with cowhides. On the day succeeding thc last g?nerai election, (October 20,1870,) at attack was made by these men on a membei of the State constabulary, at Laureas Court bouse, while the coart was io session, whlct attack waa the signal, evidently, for the exe outlon ol a preconcerted plan to murder fie publicans; lor the instant it wai made a large number of the citizens of the town, all or then of the opposition, formed line of battle anc began firing, killing eeverel Republicans upon the spot, without provocation, and huntlog down those that fled, and placing them lt postUon.and thea deliberately shooting them tc death. They thea went to the postoffice and demanded the ballot-boxes from the-postmast? er, in whoae custody they supposed them tc be deposited-the Republican ticket, as tbey correctly thought, having been elected. Ia this affair thirteen Republicans were killed and many wounded. Not & maa of the oppo? sition was Injured. Io this and other counties many were compelled to abandon their fami? lies and growing crops and fly for their lives, and others were required and forced to make a public recantation of their Republican prin? ciples from tbe steps of the county court? houses, and lu upen daylight. Ia obedience to the mandates of these masked murderers many of the local officials resigned, although they were chargeable with no malfeasance in office. In proof that these deeds of violence sprang from co local grievance, but were a part of a general, political plan, I refer to the mot that they were committed ia several counties-Union, Spartanburg. York, Chester, Chesterfield, Laurens, Fairfield and Newber? ry-where all the Judicial and other appointees of Ute administration were of the opposition. CHARLES CCOVOB. His Ideas Concerning th? Ka.Kiar Prosecutions. 8. P. Hamilton, attorney at law, Chester, S. C., writes to the Columbia (8. C.) Pu cen ix to say : When the military arrests commenced la the County of York, I wrote Mr. Charles O'Conor, of New York, to a-certain whether or not lt was possible to secure his valuable services to delend those unfortunate mea con? fined la Jail. It was stated In my letter, among other things, that lt was well known that many, if not a majority, of those incarcer? ated were entirely innocent of offence against the law, and that his great abilities would be mai ni y invoked to shield such from aa Im? proper conviction. I also said that any com? pensation In reason would be at once sub? scribed to obtain his attendance at the trials. I have taken the liberty, without bis sanction, to publish his short reply. Mr. O'Conor's letter, dated from the attor? ney-general's office, New York, October 3tot, ls as follows : Jfy Dear Sir-One mao cannot do every? thing and be every whre. God knows I mourn I over the calamities and oppressions your peo? ple are suffering, and look with Inexpressible grief at the woes which threaten them ia the Sroxtmate future.
