f?jlljljllljf Friday a'omin?'. November 22. 1872, The S?Btttwffi*l CuuU.i. An aotive canvass is going on, it ap? pears, right under our, noses here in Co? lombia, for the Senatorial ahoes of Hon. F. A. .Sawyer. The .election, it is ex? pects J, will take place early in the ensu? ing session. Candidates and their friends begin to show tbe ardor and zeal wbioh to great a prize is calculated to stimu? late. They will seek an early solution ot who is the beat mau. Thereby bangs a tail* It is not the Sonatorship alone whloh has to be decided, bat many minor offijes held in connection with it. Tho string. of positions which may, one by one, be vacated by the success of some one gaining the highest at the top, will present the liveliest attractions to all as? pirants down along its line. The office now, you see, is not sacking the mau, bat several men aro seeking the office, and many subordinates and strikers are looking on with ravenous eyes, straining to ascertain what are likely to be the possible vacancies. 8inoe the great revolution in our State affairs, which brought a new set and order of men to the surface and front, of all the high positions that of United States Senator bas.baen the least dese? crated and the least abased. At the regular election whioh came on at the meeting of the Legislature after the adoption of the Stato Constitution, Thomas J. Robertson aud F. A. Sawyer bore off the Sonatoriul prizes. R K Scott gave way to Robertson, and mo dojtlv contented himself with tho Go? vernorship. Robertson is a native of tbe State, a graduate of tbe college, a man of property, of good business quali? fications and integrity. He was elected without difficulty, and re-elected last winter over all opposition. Hia course has generally been discreet. It might have been more generous towards the people of South Carolina; but, taken all in all, we cannot complain of him, consi? dering his surroundings and the neces? sities whioh his Radicalism imposed upon him. He is not a speakiug man, but has an active miud when applied to practical matters, aud is capable of much energy. He has quietly and silently done something for our people. He vindicated Hampton, Butler and Kerabaw when rudely and lyingly as? sailed in tbe Senate, and at one critical moment, be testified to the good order and quiet of the people of the State and ita freedom from Eu Klux outrages; but without avail. It was in the book of fate that that cruel game must be played through. Robertson should be regarded as the least odious of all our natives who embraoed Republicanism. He was inoculated early, and tbe virus entered naturally and logically iuto him. In swallowing Radicalism, we should think "'twere well'twere done quickly." F. A. Sawyer has to walk tho plank. Why, exactly, we cannot sea. He has been a school-keeper, and that is a popu? lar and much vaunted oalling in our new Africa. He is a New Englander, and so oomes from the right quarter. He is an Adonis, and pleases the ladies. He is a fair speaker, and has all the re? quisite ouceit and self-importanco to make him a favorite. It is not Liberal? ism-whioh has hurt him. He has for some time, from apprehension that be would be oounted out, emphasized his Radicalism. He is narrow-minded and bigoted enough to meet all the extreme demands of party. But he is played out, and his plaoe is wanted. We don't fancy him much, but neither he nor Robertson has ever oondesoeoded to any baseness. ? Three candidates press forward to fill Sawyer's plaoe?Gov. Scott, R. B. Elli? ott, member of Congress from this Dis? trict, and "honest" John J. Patterson. Whioh of the three to choose? On dil. Chief Justice Moses has withdrawn iu favor of Elliott, and Elliott deuies that ho has withdrawn in favor of Puttersou. He says that ho will ruu, in order to make a stand for "right and justice;" that is, for the advancement, in his own person, of bis race to positions of tbe highest honor. Patterson labors under the sin? gular infatuation that ho is qualified for eometbing besides railway speculations and schemes. Gov. Scott thinks that a return to the pruotioo of modioiuo, after he has shuffled off the coils of office, will not agree with him. What is the votor ' to do? It will not ruliovo bis embarrass? ment to sing: "How happy could 1 bo with either, Wer? t'other doar uu&ruutr away." God help us I These aro the people who modestly think themselvos qualified honorably to fill the seats once occupied by Lowades and Calhonu, Proston und Bailor. In the grand eulogy prouounced by Daniol Webster, his great rival in debate, upon John 0. Calhoun, he mug nanim?nsly but most truly said, that "he was wort'jy ?o have bseu a Senator of Borne, when Borne wu fr je." We will do this trio of candidates tbe iyetioe to admit that tffey are. worthy cf represent? ing Sooth ?Carolina iu the,"United Sltates Senate, now that she is in chains, p .' r* ? -.- ' Forthcoming AproiNTiiBN'ra ?Flobh ed with success, the Administration is about to take some bold steps, It fancies that it is strong enough to defy public opinion, and betow offices upon any of its lavorites, no matter how little they possess the public confidence. Thus we hear it given out that when the vene? rable Justice Nelson retires from the Supreme Court, as it is his iutention shortly to do, the President will appoint that petty politician whom he raised from obscurity at the Philadelphia Con? vention, Tho mas Settle, to the vacancy. A more unfit selection, for tho highest judicial position in the land, cau hardly be imagined. Why is it that the great Republican lawyers, who would be proud of snob an elevation- the Evartses, FieldacR, Merediths, Binghams and Hoars?are slighted, and a man of noto? rious mediocrity is thrust beyond his level? Is it not a part of tha President's now established policy to give preference to small men for ofiioe, so that his own dwar?shness may not be more conspicu? ous than neoessary? Another report circulated in the official organs is, that one Langston, a negro practicing in the; Wellington Police Courts, is to have Attorney-General Williams' place in the Cabinet. Even Fred. Douglass de? nounces this embryo Cabinet official as a fraud. < ? Beauties or tue Kr Klus. Laws.? The proceedings in Alabama, whereby j Conservative members of the State Le? gislature were arrested under the K.u Klux laws and kept away from the oapitol, in order to proveut them from taking part in tho organization of tbo Legislature, and thus to throw it into tho hands of the negroes, is another of thu outrages under tho Enforcement Acts. This devil? ish prooeodiog, we are sure, is against tho spirit of the day, and not consistent with the feelings aud desire of President Graut at this time. But what cau he do? The weapons are iu the bauds of un? scrupulous wreiches, and they cannot be wrested from them. Gen. Grant will probably desire the repeal of the most objectionable part of thu enforcement laws* but until Congress aots upon aud modifies them, the South is ever liable to the annoying and unconstitutional aots of ignorant aud rascally Federal officials nnder thorn. GAunuTTA.?Tbe coming mau iu France is Lcou Gambotta. He has been once before, it is true, but there aro wise heads iu Europe which say that when he comes again, he will come to stuy. Gam betta is a Republican in theory?that is, u French Republican. Sowas General Bonapartu at the outset of bis career. So was young Louis IN. Bouapartu iu the days of Boulogne and Strasburg. They belu ved in tbo republic, aud found, when they came to rule, that a strong government was necessary for Frauen. When Thiers dies, Gambutta will step into his shoes. He will find the Frenoh turbulent, dissatisfied, revolutionary. He is a man of neivo, and be will put down his iron heel. He will keep it down. Despotie power, once handled, is with difficulty relinquished. France will sink into its periodical lulhargic fit. There will be an Emperor L?ou I in tho Tnilleries. History repeats itself.

In re tbo Greenville and- Columbia Baiiroad, ex Sorte Daniel E. SoanneB, ex parte Ohas, iadaen. Petition for involuntary bankruptcy. It will bo aeeu that the issues made by the plendiogs in this,case areas follows: 1. WbetUorthiH oourt has jurisdiction, the State of South Carolina having insti? tuted proceedings as guarantor upou tbo bonds of the respondent, and in the State court, under which all Ihe property of the company baa been taken posses aion of? 2. Whether the Greenville aud Colum? bia Baiiroad Company is a corporation subject to the provisions ot the Bank- j rupt Aot? 3. Whether the interest coupons sovorod from the buuds are uommuicial paper, and the non-payment thereof for fourteen days is an not of bankruptcy ? 1.

Wbetbor, being bankrupt and in? solvent, tho defendant en tiered payment to bo taken against it with ititeut thereby to give a preference to those creditors, or to defeat or delay the operation of ihe Bankrupt Act? 8. Whether tbe respondent has suffer? ed its property to bo taken on legal pro? cess, with intent thereby to deleat aud delay the operatiou of the Bankrupt Act, iu tbe case of the State ex rel'ttione the Attorney-General, against tho Greenville and Columbia Railroad Company? As to the first question, I hold that whatever tho interest or lien tho Stale may have in or upou the property uf the said'Greenville aud Columbia Railroad Company, if said company be baukrupt, tbo jurisdiction of the bankrupt court is not ousted, becausu the State is a credi? tor. As to thu second question, I hold that the Greenville und Columbia Rtiiroud, under the Act und decisions upon the Act, is u corporation, subject to tbo pro? visions uf the Baukrupt Act. As to tho third question, I hold that tho interest coupons severed from tho bonds uro commercial paper, and if tbe Greenville Railroad were "a banker, broker, merchant, trader, manufacturer or minor," the non-payment of its cou? pons for fourteen days would be au act of bankruptcy; but us it doe* not (in my opinion) fall within any ono of these olassos, the penalty for such stoppage dues nut attach. As to the fuurth question, (acting iu stead of a jury,) 1 have not been nblo tu tiud tbo iusolveuoy of tbe company, or deoido that it ia insolvent. As to the fifth and sixth questions, not having found tbe Greeuville aud Colum? bia Railroad insolvent, it is not necessa? ry that I should decide them. I have simply sta'ed my conclusions upon tho issues presented, without argu? ing them and without reference to the authority upon which they rest tor sup? port. Time has not permitted more.

C..1 iw.-o Ol til' 'i guuU.3, Uillil mated ut $7,000 or Se.000, bnt covered by insurance to tbo extent of 80,000. A. M. Hill A- Co. sustained a loss of perhaps $1,000, a large portion of their goods being stored iu their adjaeeut warehouse, which escaped, and tho rest of thy gonds which were saved being translerred there. Their loss is covered by u policy uf $2.500. Mr. Hill himself lost bis clothing and that of bis family, household furniture, and some $.)00 in gold, which was in his trunk in his bod room. His loss is about. $1,000, and a very heavy one, as bo bad no insurance upon his household effects. J. D. Chultn rs A Co. estimate their loss at $1,000, having saved the greater part of their goods. Their loss is covered by a policy of 81,000. Leo & Parker also saved Ihe grimier part of their goods, and estimate (hat their loss will nut exceed $1,200 ur $1.500. Their loss is covered by a policy of $2,000. Tbe four s'oros burnt would not ex? ceed in valuo $11,000. Two of them, thoso of Messrs. Robinson and Aikeh, wero uninsured, and tho two belonging to Ihe estate of A. A. Williams wero iu snred to tho amount of $1,000. Heavy losses occurred by tho removal of goods. Wnrdlaw Sc Edwards estimate theirs at $2,000 or $2,000; Nelson tie Can? non, at 94.00 or $500; J. B. Si W. J. Ro? gers, nt $500; H. W. In won & Co., at $-; McDonald & Huddoo, at $700. Soino damago was dune tu Bawson's building aud Wilson's block, upon whioh we have heard no estimate. All uf theso losses aro covered by insurance, except that of L'twson's stock. No blame, it seems, attuehes to any ouo of the public officers' that they were not saved; tbo*e officers residing at some distance off, and before they could bo vouched the progress of tho flames mado tbeir rescue impossible.

"Taxes pgr Highway Purposes.?At* tpraey-Goneral Chamberlain has render e&.the following ? opiuion oa tbo power of County Commission^n to levy Uxcb for highway pu rposes: ?PPIOK OP ATTOJlNEY-GliRKItAIi, Columbia, S. G, November 19,1872. J. H. Bryant, Esq, Chairman Hoard County Commissioners, Jiichland Coun? ty. Dear Siu: I bavo considered the qucatiou aubmitted to me a few days since iu regard to the power of the County Commissioners oi - a County to levy a tux for highway purposes in addi? tion to the full amount of the levy al? lowed by the j>iut resolution of March 13V 1872. Section 3'1. of the Act of September 215. 1.KI.H. nntilled "An Act to rle.non tbe jurisdiction and powers of County Com? missioner.'," (pngo 131, volume 14.) pro? vides that "no tux shall bo levied and collected by the County Commissioners until the same has been authorized by tho Geueral Assembly." Seotiou 2, of tbu Act of -March 9, 1871, entitled *'Au Act to provide for the construction and repair of public highways," (page 067, volume 14,) au? thorizes thu Couniy Commissioners to "assess a tux of eighteen cents, if so much bu necessary, ou every 8100 of the lists of the County," for highway pur? poses. Tbe joint resolution of March IU, 1872. cutitled "Joint Resolution author? izing aud directing tho State Auditor and County Commissioners to levy certain taxes," (page 203, volume 15,) author? ize the County Commissioners of each of the Counties to levy a tax not exceed? ing three mills on a dollar of all taxable propelty in their respective Counties, i except tbe County of Fairtield, iu which the County Commissioners shall not levy a tux of more tbnu one and a half milts, for the fiscal year, commencing November 1,1871. The quest inn growing out of the Statutes now quoted is, whether tbe j nut resolution of March 13, 1872. is in? tended to lix the highe.-t limit of County luxation, SO as to render the laying of n I highway tux in addition to the limit I fixed by that resolution, illegal? 1 have no time to elaborate my views, but lam of the opinion thut tbe County Commissioner uro limited to three mills inclusive of tho highway tux. iu all the Counties except Fairtield, iu whioh County the limit is one and one half mill*.

The Greatest Biudue ?The greatest work in the line of suspension bridges ever attempted iu this country is the bridgo from New York to Brooklyn across thu East River. It will be sup? ported by two great towers, which bavo a height above high-water mark of 208 feet, while they rest upon foundations some eighty feet beneath high-water. Tho height of tho centre or main span of the bridgo will be 135 feet above high water. The length of tbe river span wiil be 1,010 feet, of each laud span 010 fdot. Tho length of the New York ap? proach will be 1.1-11 feet, and tbe Brooklyn approach 911. Tho totu! length of tho bridge will be 5,878 feet. It will bo amply broad, and will have foot-ways, curriago-wnys and a railway track, ail distinct and effectually sepa? rated It wns begun in 1870. Tho tower on the Brooklyn side has reached a height of 140 feet, that ou tbe New York sido 5U feet, above tho water. When tho work will be done, the engi? neers themselves will not undertake to nay. It is conjectured that it will be at least four years before travel will com? mence upon it. It was calculated for an expense of 80.0U0.000, but it is now sup? posed the cost will considerably exceed that sum. When this bridgo is com? pleted, it will be ouo of the wouders of tho conutry. It will make New York and Brooklyn almost ono, and may reol izo the predictions of some people that the day will come when Brooklyn will he annexed to New York, aud one go? vernment will control them both.
