Sunday .?Irntnff, FaJt^axj 2.187& The bill to' make appropriations and to raiso supplies for tho,year commencing Novomber 1, 1872, drags its Blow length ?long in the House of Represent a tires. Those who propose any rednotion in the amounts reported by the Committee on Ways and Means, are met with deter? mined opposition. On Friday, Andrew Curtis, member from Riohland, moved to strike out $20,000 and iusort 910,000 foi the State militia. He eould not see sny advantage or nso in appropriating suoh a large - sum to this department. It had been done before, but without any good results. . His view was sustained by Mr. Myers, of Beaufort. He thought $10,000 twioo too much. Already there bad beon appropriated $110.000, and no? body oould tell what had become of it, or point to anything accomplished by it. He oharged that Gorernor Soott had need it with the officers to eleotioneer lor him. Mr. Hurley said that it had cost th% State of South Carolina $305, 600.26 to reoeive from the TJuited States Government 10,000 musketB, worth $13 a pieoe. The guns were manufactured at Springfield, were excellent and ser? viceable, and had been distributed. But no officer or private has received any money to repair and keep hiB gun in order. Where, then, has all this money gone to? And .where are the arms? It was a heavy and costly gift which took seven times its valao to reoeive it, and the State have nothing to show for it now.- It waa;a mystery. , Mr,' Bowley argued . for i the appropriation of the amount' mentioned in the' bill, viz: $20,000. Many expenses had to be in? curred. The armory building needed re? pairs, &o. We observe almovemsnt on foot to in? crease' the salaries of the Supreme Court and birouit Judges. ? message was sent in on Thursday by the Governor, forwarding letters from Judges Maokey, Carpenter, Graham and Oooke, relative to this subject. Tliei memorial says that the salaries of the Judges are lowor than in any other State in the Union, both absolute]^.and relatively to the ~.work done. Mr. Lavy, of Charleston,-, intro duoed n bill on -that day to inorease their salaries. The amounts which they now receive, and which are recommended in the appropriation bill for the'-present year, are, for the Chief Justioe, $1,000; Assooiate Justices and'Circuit Jhdgos, i $3,500 each. / W),000l are cabled for to 1 continue ? the construction of the peni? tentiary. Large amounts, under the in? definite head of oontingent fand for the several departments, and for the civil cootiugejnj fund, are also reported by the Oo($guttee. The more wo are re? duced, the more complete the depletion of thei8tate Treasury, the more nume? rous'become tho pretexts for diving into, it, the more exorbitant and exacting the dumatids;ct'the public officers, jj How, in the name of common sende aud all that is reasonable, oan the Stute stand these extravagant aud reokleas appropriations? What was the meaning of all the flue talk about reform, and in (he face of theao damaging disclosures of the bill, where are tho evidences of any desire or purpose of retrenchment? Whatever is right and necessary, the people are willing to pay. [ But the State , is small, its resouroes scant, aud taxation heavy. While officials rejoioe in their j large and omily made stipends, the tax? payers are, pinohed, -the education of their children negleeteol, and their spirits sank under the weight of present and prospective ills. We should out onr garments according to out oloth. In this State, we have a population of 705,606 souls, on an area of 34,000 square miles. Oar cotton crop, the last year, was 271,241 bales. Oar neighbor? ing State of Georgia has a population of 1,184,109, on an area of 58,000 square miles. The cotton crop of that State, the last year, amounted to 450,599 bales. Considering onr population, area and resources, oar expenses should be little - more than half what they are in Geor? gia. In tbe appropriation bill whioh has been submitted to tho Legislature of that State, we do not see a word abont any oontingent fand. Ma^ny other heavy itoms iu our bill are not to be found in theirs. The Judges of the Superior Court get $2,500, and of tbe Sapreme Court $3,500, each. These 'sums com? mand good talent, learning, experience and faithful service there. We read of no complaint that they are inadequate. And Georgia is not loaded dowu with debt, as'we are here. It behooves Re? publicans who regard their pledges,.nod all members who have any bowels-of mercy for our strickon and impoverished State, to scan this bill olosely, and'strike out every item whioh is unnecessary and extravagant, We havo heard tho cry of leeches long enough, "gtvo, give." Pharm 4Cetattc?l Association. Tho bill ntroduoed in the General Assembly, relative tojjbe PhMnacentl^al Association,^* a good one, with well de? fined objeol?. . It proposes to vest in Buoh aseooiatioU the exclusive right to examine applicants for the degree which will entitle them to follow tbe business of druggists. Heretofore, this examina? tion has been conducted by the Faculty of the Medical College of CftGlestoj, and by the Medical Faoulty of tho Stale TJuivoraity. Ib ia now proposed to con? stitute o board apeoially for thispurpoBS. Druggists, as well ne physicians and sur gnonB, require careful education. Our lives aro in their bands, ind a blunder of ignorance or inattention made by them is qb fatal as a crimo perpetrated by others. Poisons are sometimes vended instead of healing remedies or soothing potions. It is eminently proper, then, that drnggiata should be fitted by study and experience, tested by examination of a competent board, and authorized by their diploma to conduct a branoh of business so delicate and important. In itself, it is more than a business or a trade. It is a profession of a liberal character, and to be fitted for it requires liberal studies and close application. Every practicable safe-guard should bo thrown aroaud it, and every aid used to secure skill and efficiency in the prac? tice. The bill is calculated to secure theso onds, and highe?1 security will he given to life and health by its adoption aud passage into u law. ?-??-? The Washington Monument.?The appointment of a committee of thirteen Congressmen to report a plan to com? plete tho Washington monument (al? ready begun in Washington city) by 1876, shows that probably late justice is about to be dono to the memory of the illustrious man who did more than any other man toward the accomplishment of that American revolution whose benefits are very uncertain. Their uncertainty is, however, the fault of the present age ?not his. Let the monument be finished. , ?-???-> .39 rialTelegraphs.?Sometime sinoe a bill passed Congress authorizing ono Loomis to build an "sorial telegraph." What that "mrial telegraph" was, no? body seemed to know, exaotly. Fhilso sophio Congressmen, doubtless obsorbed by the Credit Mobilier, then just riaing in the horizon, deemed it but an idle vagary, and probably granted the peti? tion as each. But one provision in the bill doubtless escaped the astute SoIoub at Washington. It reads thus: "Sao. 3. That the business and objects of. said cotporation shall be to develop >and utilize the priuoiples and powers of natural electricity, to be used in tele? graphing, generating light, heat' and motive power, and otherwiso make aud operate any machinery run by electricity for any purpose." " /This clauso, it will ho observed, em? powers them to build, not only "mrial telegraphs," but also any other kind of telegraph they mny please to construct. Thus, to all practical intents, we huvo still another telegraph company regu? larly chartered by Congress, irrespective of any State action,, when that body thought it waa fathering dome "advanced idea." The unfortunate wife of the misguided Maximilian is at last at rest. 1 'Poor Car lotta!" She has posaed from a world in which pomp and plaoo have been to her tbe bitterest gall. The fevorod brain, unsettled by the force of her trials, is at rest at last. Her's has been tho truest romance of public life during the past ten materialistic years. The tragic death of her husband, to whom she was strong? ly attached, unshipped the rudder that kopt her abreast tbe wave, and left her to be beaten and buffeted nntii at last the vessel broke and went to pieces. Ifor two or more years past she has been a harmless Innatio, without hope of re? covery. The change, therefore, could but be for tho better, and it must bo a matter of relief to her friends that death has at last as? um od tho oh arge. Capital Beadx and Waitino.?From the Union, of yesterday, wo copy tho following: ? Wo wish to oall tho ntteutiou of tho Legislature, but more particularly of tho Senate, to the fact that numerous persons aro only awaiting their disposition of this bill, and if it be favorable, to begin at once the erection of manufactories in this city, and at other eligible locations in the State. The parties interested in tho passage of this bill, are not, by auy means, oou fined to this State. Many parties in tho North, who have abundance of capital, have had their attention directed to this measure, aud are anxiously watching the notion of the Legislature on tho subjeot. Only yosterday, a well-known gentleman of this oity, who himsolf pi opuses to invest forty or fifty thousand dollars in a cotton factory, in case the bill passe?, named to us parties in tho West, who aro delayed from coming hore for the same purpose, only until the bill becomes a law. A LiITTZiB 6lX.Ii, but i. Qbmax An agreeable surprise has been given th? ?country by Ibe House of Bepreeaata tivea, in the' passage of the bill, as it ?ioae fcdm tho Senate, abolishing the franking privilege, whereby only the President's signature ia needed to rusko this repeal a law of the land. As Ho doubt is entertained of the President*! approval of the measure, the bill may be considered a law. It is brief, but to the purpose. It provides that from and aftor the 1st of July next, "all official correspondence, of whatsoever nature, and all other mailable matter, (public documents, &c, sent of! by members of Congress, &o.,) shall be ohargeablo with the same rates of postage as may be law? fully imposed upon like matter sent by or addressed to other persons." In other words, tho correspondence of members of tho Cabinet and of Con? gress and other Federal officials, and the publio documents of all description?, and gardon seeds aud books, photo? graphs, band kerchiefs, gloves, "old olo'," ?te., Sea., now sent freo under Con? gressional or Executive Department or bureau franks,lfrom Washington to ail parts of tho conntry, shall, from and after the 1st of July next, pay the usual rates of postage for such letters, "pub. doos." or other mail matter, without dis? tinction of official position, race, place ! or previous condition of servitudo. Cuba and Haiti.?A very interesting and inetruotive communication bus been lately published upon the growth of Cuba iu its rich tropical productions and in population, with a comparison of tho gradual downfall of Hayli, once tbe gar? den of the tropics, and the producer, iu its best days, of somo of the most valu? able produots of the world. Tho Now York Express calls attention to the facts I referred to, and tho figures of which speak for themselves, "and cannot be dismissed by cant or false sentiment on the one hand, or by evading the oonolu I sions drawn' in the communication." At the commencement of the present cen? tury, the population of Cuba was 300, 000; it is now 1,400,000. Iu the year 1826, the value of her exportation^ was $13,809,388, and in 1859 they had in? creased to 857,455,180; aud during the same year, tho importations wero valued at $143,465,185. Iu 1862, Cuba pro? duced from its own soil and resources to the value of 8305,919,875?a sum equal to $218 for eaoh member of the popula? tion. Tho exports and imports of the island furnish a largo number of Ameri I can vessels with remunerative freights, and the duties upon merchandise brought to onr ports from Cuba add immensely to the revenues of the Government. The writer maintains?wo know not with what truth?that in any change of Go? vernment in tho island, the uneducated oolored population will have the power to control it, and that our trade and commerce would thcroby suffer material? ly. Yet, if the Cubans oan effect their own liberty, no one in the United States cm reasonably objeot to it, aud it is presumed the consequences could bo provided for afterwards. The figures, however, in regard to Hayti aro something astounding. The island is next to Cuba, the most fortilo of the Antilles. In tbo year 1790 the value of its exports wsb $27,828,000, tho principal products being?sugar, 163,405,220 pounds; coffee, 63,151,180 pounds; cot? ton, 6,286,120 pounds; indigo, 930,816 pounds. In 1793 the revolution broke out. In 1819, tho last certain data that the statistios furnish, and nearly sixty I years after tho rovolution, the exporta? tion of tho above mentioned articles was as follows: Sugar, noue; oofleo, 30,608, 313 pounds; cotton, 501,516 pounds; in? digo, nono. Sinse that time tho exports have gradually decreased, until, accord? ing to tho estimate of tho correspondent, at the present timo thoy do not exceed in value $2,000,000. It'is evident from these statistics that the blacks of Hnyti are on a much lower plane of civilization than those of our S utbern States, who, under intelligent whito supervision, have continued since emancipation (with what degree of profit to thoir immediate em? ploy ors does not appear) to be prod na? tive laborers. But thero is no evidence that tbe blacks of Cuba are in any do groe superior lo those of Hayti, and though every ono would be glad to see a more liberal government in Cuba, it is to be hoped, for the sako of our com? mercial interests and thoso of common civilization and humanity, that, what? ever turn affairs may tako in that island, its destinies will bo controlled by intelli? gent as well as liberul minds. j DESTRuanvB Finn?Fifteen Bales op Ootton Burned.?We regret to state that on Friday last, our frioud, T. B. Jeter, living near Sintuo, met with a very severe loss by the burning of his gin-house and all its contents, consisting of a nearly now giu and gearing, fifteen bales of ootton, and a largo quantity of cotton seed. The loss is estimated at $2,500. Tbofiro occurred from tbe in disoreot act of a very small oolored ohild, who, in the absence of his father, tho engineer, wont to his father's ooat, which was hanging in tho gin-house, took from tho pooket some matches and ignited them. Tho child was too small i.> give any suspicion that tho deed was maliciously committed, and Mr. Jeter fuels confident that the fire was the re? sult of a childish indiscretion. [Union Times.

Prayer by Rev., Dr. Webster. , ? Mr. Johnston introduced bills to.au- , tborize the building of a bridge across Lynoh'o Greek; to amend the Constitu? tion of the State, relating to the bound? ary line of Piokena and Oconoe Coun? ties. I Mr. Jervey introduced bills to regu? late flowagp; to authorize the construc? tion of the Now York, Norfolk aud Charleston Railroad Company; to renew and amend the charter of the Appren? tices' Library Association. t Mr. Whittemore introduced a joint resolution to provide for the purchase of a lot of land for tho use of the State Penitentiary. ? Mr. Maxwell, from Committee on Education, reported unfavorably on the bill to require County School Commis? sioners to open night schools at tho re? spective County Beate, the Stuto now finding it difficult to provide for present modos of education. Mr. Lee presouted report of David Hemphill, Treasurer of Cheater County, showing that 31,500 of tho half mill tax, for the support of widows und orphans of those persons who were killed for their political opinions, had been collected, and disbursements in ado under (he Act I to two families. I Mr. White introduced a bill to fix the time of holding Cirouit Courts in York County. The bill to regulato flowugo in this State, introduoed to day by Mr. Jervey, of Charleston, provides that owners of mills may improve the streams aud ponds without molestation; auy person aggrieved thereby may commence action for damage.", defendant having the right to uppeal from judgment, such appeal to he made within five days. Section 17 provides that no person shall detain a natural stream at any one time more than twclvo hours out of twenty-four, except on Sundays, when ho shall be re? quested by the owner of any dam one mile below to suffer the natural stream to pass. Mr. Jervey presented the petition aud memorial of Wm. Aiken, Robert Adger and Wm. C. Bee, showing that they and others paid the direct tax laid by Act of Congress, and praying relief. This peti? tion shows that a tax of $363,570 was laid upon tho State of Sonth Carolina, being its proportion of $20,000,000 laid on the United States, and that the pe? nalty of fifty percent., provided for by subsequent Acts, created a lien on the propcrty-vestiug title in tho United States, or the purchase thereof. It is also set forth, that at tho time of the passage of the Act, the authority of tho United States was subverted in this State, and afterwards, in November, 1861, whs re-established in a small sec? tion, and tho levy of tho tax was made as far as possible, and many estates sold at nominal prices, because tho owners could not pay tho taxes; that, in 1865, United States authority was established in Charleston and tho sea-board, and the same lien was extended. Tho memorial? ists hold that tho whole amount of tax and penalty was collected from a compa? ratively small uuinber of the citizeus; that they were not voluntarily paid; that their property was seized and held by agouts of the United States, aud re? stored only upon the production of a certificate that the tax and penalty bud been paid. They, therefore, ask tho same treatment that would be giveu be? fore the courts of the State, between two individuals, claiming that they have paid tho whole debt of tho State, and would bo well content to have tboir claim to relief tried and adjudged by the court;; of the Slate. The following bill* wero passed to a third reading and ordered to bo en? grossed: Joint resolution to allow the heirs of the estuto of James Phillipe, iu Darlington County, to redeem oertaiu forfeited lands; bill to incorporate tbe Charleston Coastwise Transportation Company; bill to amend the Act incor? porating tho town of Lewisville, Orange burg County; a bill to prevent tho ob? struction of harbors and navigablo streams in the State, by tho discuargo of ballast of stone, dirt and other heavy materials. This last bill caused consi? derable debate, but passed in a ehape that seemed to meet with the well consi? dered opinions of that part of tho Senate familiar with nautical affairs. Tho bill to inoorporato the Mariners' Chape], of Charleston, was laid on the table, as a similar House bill bad passed; a bill to change tho name of Frog Level to Pros? perity was made the special order for next Friday, at 1 P. M. A message was received from tho Go? vernor, pertaining to Exeoutivo busiucss. Tho special order, being to amend Section 12, Chapter 38, of the General Stututee, relating to tho salary of County Commissioners, was then taken up. A long debate followed, with which, and the calendar bills, the remainder of the day was occupied. The House was not in session.
