? rortlin Affairs.' St. pBTEB3i??ao, February' 2tt.-The revolt in the province of Ukraine baa assumed alarm! ng proportions, and the atrocities committed by the insubordi? nate peasantry are of the most revolting cruelty. Iu several places tbe most bar? barous excesses have been committed by insurgents without provocation, attack? ing the inhabitants, burning their dwell? ings, and murdering the inmates, both mala and female. The power of the Government is defied, and the revolters retain supreme control over the district. A foroe1 of Russian troops, wbioh had been despatched to suppress tbe insur? rection, were met by tbe insurgents and the engagement terminated in the dis? astrous defeat of the Government troops. The inability of the Government to maintain order has created a general alarm among tbe inhabitants, who, in great numbers, are fleeing from the country. Vienna, February 26.?There is a socialist insurrection in RasBian pro? vinces of Valdenerio and Podolia, with frightful excesses. Troops sent to sup? press the insurrection were defeated.. Jliaorltkn Blatter*. Charleston, February 26.?Arrived? Steamships Champion, New York; Sea Gull, Baltimore. Wahumoton, February 26.?The only information regarding the Now Orleans Post Office obtainable at tbe department is, that the New Orleans Post Office is out of gear. Detective Woods was sent there last Saturday. It appears that the amount of the deficiency ia about $19, 000, and that Postmaster Lowell, though responsible for the money, was no part? ner to the fraud. Foreign Miscellany?It is rumored that the OarliBt General Ceballo, with four battalions, is marobing on Madrid. Fo? reign war vessels are cruising off the Spanish ooast,-to protect the respective citizens of their governments. Italy, Austria and a majority of the European governments maintain Bemi-offioial rela? tions with the Spanish, pending tbe formation of a regular government. Rus? sia-is indisposed to reoognize in any manner the present government. Domestic Miscellany?The Modocs and the Peace Commissioners had an in? terview. The Indians had needlo-guna, and carried 200 oartridgea eaoh. Thoy say they are not mad yet. "Your house is standing; so is Dorris', Van br emeu's, Fairobild's and Smalls'; beeause we are not mad yet." The 8onate, after tabling an amend meat opening all regiments of the army to the enlistment of colored men, passed the army appropriation'bill. ' BEAOimoiio, Ontario, February 26.? Mrs, Fresher and five children wore burned with their house; cause of fire unknown. Burlington, Februar 26.?Col. N. A. Tuoker, lung on duty at Washington, is dead; Savannas, February 26.?The Hardeo was sank, six miles below the city; six lives lost. The bark Oneoo, hence for Calleo, taking fire, was scuttled. Auoosta, February 26.?Hon. Alex. H. Stephens has been elected to Con? gress from the Eighth Georgia District. No opposition. Montgomery, AiiA., February 26.?At a speoial election in Sumter County, for State Senator, to fill the vacancy caused by ihe death of Gilmore, Radical, Little, Domoorat, was eleoted by 870 majority. This makes the Senate again Demon ratio. Washington, February 26.?Tbe com? mittee of oonferenae agreed to extend the time of the Southern Claims Com? mission fonr years. They have 20,000 unheard olaims before tbem. The select committee to investigate Senator Clayton, of Arkansas, exone? rates him* On tbe speoial application of Mr. Handlsy, the President signed, to-day, the pardons for Charles Howard and James Blanks, of Randolph County,1 Ala,, who were convicted as Ku Ktux, and confined in tbe Albany Penitentiary. In the Senate, the House i bill paying Southern claimants was reported with- i out recommendation, and went on the calendar. The Honse bill enforcing the fishery olause of the Washington treaty passed. Utah matters were discussed. In the House, the resolution expelling Brooks and Ames occupied tbe day. Considerable Bensation, bat nothing im? portant. Probabilities?Easterly winds, with rain, will continue in the South Atlantic States, veering to South and West during tbe day. The debate in the House to-day, though exceedingly interesting, was in no respect exciting. The prinoipal speeches were by Bingbam, iu opposi? tion to tbe report, and in defence of what he declared was tbe constitutional right of tbe people to select their repre? sentatives, and by BaDks, who felt that there was an alarming presence of cor? ruption, attempting to get control of tbe country through legislation by Congress. There was earnest attention on all sides to the speeches. Beek and Voorhees made able speeches; the latter going into an enthusiastic defence of Brooks. Beck's views were substantially similar' to Binghauvs as to tbe rights of the people. Those Representatives should not be held aoooantable by Congress after election for crimes committed bo fore. Butler speaks to-night, opposing tbe report. ?financial and Commercial* Columbia, S. 0., February 26.?Sales of cotton to-day 65 bales?middling 18'?o. London, February 26?Noon.?Con? sols 02^. 5s 90^.

Reoxption and Ball by the United States Ambassador.?General Siokles' reception was attended by Senor Caste lar, the leading diplomatists and men of letters in the city, and several represen? tatives of the Spanish nobility. The re? ception wsb succeeded by a ball given to the diplomatic oorps, whioh lasted until 4 o'clock in the morning. The politi? cians present at the festivities disoassed the state of Spain with the American Minister, who recommended vigilanoe, prudence, energy and patriotism. The present, be said, was a critical moment. He considered it unwise to allow the people to bear arms until they had re? ceived a military organization. The people appeared to know their rights; they must as soon as possible learn their duties as citizens; then they would be enabled to contribute to the happiness and prosperity of the country. Washington's birth-day reception fete at the residence of the United States Mi? nister became a republican demonstra? tion. The re-nctiouaries are extravagant in their hostility to the American Minis? ter, whom they regard as being officious? ly active in Spanish politics. A Conscientious Prisoner.?Jim H., out West, tells a good yaru about a "shell bark lawyer." His client was up on two "frivolous oharges," as shell bark designated them (forging a note of hand and stealing a horse.) On running his eye over the jory, he didn't like their looks, so he prepared an affidavit for oontiouanoe, setting forth the absence of a prinoipal witness. He road it in a whisper to the prisoner, who, shaking his head, said: "Squire, I can't awoar to that dokyment." "Why?" "K?se hit hainttrue." Old shell inflated and ex? ploded load enough to be heard through? out the room. "What! forge a noto an' steal a horse, an' can't swear to a lie I Hang suoh infernal fools." And be im? mediately left the .oouoieutioua one to his fate. Mr. James Brooks, of Abbevillo, had his right leg broken on last Friday, by falling from a scaffold around tho houso of Bev. H. T. Sloan, now being built. Two prisoners, named John Singloy and Isaiah Kempson, escaped from tho Nowborry jail on the 14th. Mr. Joko H. Wilson, of Abboville, died on last Thursday uigbt, of typhoid pneumonia, after a short illness. Twelve persons died in Outhbort, Ga., last woek, within a few hours of each other. Mr, B. J. Dargau, of Sumter, died last Thursday. The Michigan State prison holds sixty murderers under life sentences. Wednesday, February 26, 1878. . SENATE. A ooncarreut resolution frutn the House, that the Governor select suitable representation for the State of South Carolina in the national gallery at Washington, was laid on tbe table. Tbe claim of tbo Catndeu Journal, for $41, publishing election notice, was re? ported on favorably and allowed; as also the following: Claim of Mrs. Huntt, wife of Wm. R. Huntt, for $1,500. on ac? count of preserving State records; claim of the Edgutletd Advertiser, for publish? ing laws; claim of L. C.

K. Carlton, Trial Justice of Beaufort County, to change his domicil, were passed. The Senate receded from its amend? ment to the appropriation bill relative to the Stute Penitentiary, to insert $60,000 instead of $10,000. In joiut assembly, M. B. Allen was elected Judge of the Inferior Court of Charleston. Vfter the joint session, the following bills were passed: To incorporate the Edgefiehl Cotton and Woolen Manufac? turing Company, and to regulate the eleotiou of Mayor und Aldermen iu the city of Cuarlebton. A communication was received from the State Treasurer iu relation to Blue Ridge Railroad bonds, that. 3,395 were received in thut office, only a part uf which had been canceled; tuereforo, tbe Treasurer requested tbe appointment of a committee to wituess the cancellation 1 of the remainder of tbo bunds received. ! Tho following bills were passed: To incorporate the York Mauufuoturiog Company; to remedy aud supply the loss of publio records, aud to perpetuute testimony in regard to deeds, mortgages, settlements and other papers lost by Uro at Abbeville; aud Co alter aud amend the charter of the town of Moaktieville, Sullivan's Island. Claim of Mrs. D. M. Walker was ui lowed for $369.52, for plauiug. The report of the Committee of Frea Conference on improvement: und manu? factures was taken up. A motion was made to postpone until next session ? yeas 13, nays 12. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. The House met at 11 A. M. Prayer by the Chaplain. The Committee on Contingent Ac? counts reported favorably on the clainii of Joseph Crews and W. B. Stanley. Tbe report was adoptod. Mr. Lilly rose to a question of privi? lege, and asked to have a paper read from tbe Speaker's desk, which was done. The paper was a certificate by Judge Mackey that Mr. Lilly had boen arraigned ou u charge uf grand larceny at Chester and acquitted by a jury. Mr. Hurley proposed that the Hoaae return its sincere thanks to that jury. A bill to incorporate tbe Moultrieville Railroad Company was read a third time. Tbo following ware adopted: Resolu? tion, by Mr. Artsou, that a gratuity of $1,000 be voted to Speaker Lee; resolu? tion, by Mr. Duncan, to return tbe thanks of the House to the Speaker for the efficient and courteous manner in whioh bo has performed the duties of his office; resolution, by Mr. Green, that Mr. Frazier be requested to address tbe House on matters of public interest. The enacting clause was stricken out of a bill to abolish the Inferior Court of Charleston. On motion of Mr. Lilly, tho claim of -Cavanngh was referred to the Com? mittee on Claims. A resolution was adopted retnrning the tbanks of tho House to A. O. Jones, the Clerk of the House, for the ablo manner in which he bus performed tbe duties of his office. A communication was read from W. J. Whipper, of the Sinking Fund Commis? sion, that he bad tendered tbe books and papers of his office to botb tho Attorney General aud the Comptroller-General, aud that they had refused to receive them; that tbey wero now in his posses? sion and at the service of tbe House. Tbe Committee on Enrolled Bills re? ported that the following had boen signed by tho Governor: Acts to charter tbe Anderson, Aiken, Port Royal and Charleston Railroad Company; to amend Chapter L, Section 4, Revised Statutes; to incorporate tho Chester and Lenoir Railroad Company. Gifted Printers?Tbe roll of bright names of the many men?printers by profession?who have rison from the oaso to prominent places iu journalism, poli? tics, law and hteraturo, is too long n one to be even hinted at. Every one knows that Horace Greeley was a practical printer; so was Scbuyler Colfax; and tbe Senate and House of Representatives have upon their floor many typos, Quito a number have honorably worn the judi? cial ermine. National and State oouven tions are crammed with them. In the wido field of journalism, thoy aro lite? rally as thick as bees. In tbo ministry they aro not rare On the stage thoy aro numerous; and now aud then they have oven vaulted into professors' chairs. [Printers' Circular. Tbe dwelling and kitchen of Mr. Williams, at Greenville, was destroyed by fire, Thursday morning. . ?oftmovB cit^Eiprjii?ioK.?The Po? land Committee submitted to tbe Hoaae nud recommended the adoption of the following resolutions: Whereas, Mr. Oakes Amen, a Repre? sentative in this Houae from the State of Massaohuuetts, has been guilty of sell iug to membois of Congress snares of stock in-tbe Credit Mobilier of America for priot5S much below tbo true value of such stock, with intent thereby to influence the votes sad deoisious of saoh members in matters to be brought before Congress for notion; therefore, Hesolvad, That Mr. Oakes Ames be, and he is hereby, expelled from his seat as a member of this House. Whereas, Mr. James Brooks, a Repre? sentative in this House from the State of New York, did procure the Credit Mobilier Company to issue and deliver to Ch irles H. Noilson, for the ose and benefit of the said Brooks, fifty shares of the stock of the said company, at a price much below its real value, well knowing that the baqid was so issued and delivered with iateut to influence the votes and decisions of said Brooks as a member of tho House in matters to be brought be? fore Congress for action, aud also to influence the aotion of said Brooks as n Government director in the Union Pa? cific Railroad Company; therefore, Resolved, That James Brooks be, and he is hereby, expelled from bis seat as a member of this House.. * Some men are standing on the brink of a prtcipice," say tbe people. "Make clean work of it this time," enjoins the Boston Transcript. "The conclusions are simply astounding," says the Balti? more Gazette. "It is a cowardly parti? san report," cries the Newark Journal. "Oakes Ames aud James Brooks are de? lected as 'vicarious sacrifices,' as ex Comptroller Connolly wonld term it." remarks tbe Albany Times. "The Po? land Infamy," is the distinguishing characteristic applied to the report by tho Albany Argus. And so we might trace tho expression of the popular judgment through u thousand different uewspap?r channels. United States Court, Charleston, February 2G.?Petition of Joseph H. Fly on to establish lien in the caso of John Fltnn, bankrupt. Referred to Re? gistrar Clawson. Petition of Eugene G. Evans, of Puudleton, for voluutary bank? ruptcy. Referred to Registrar Jeager.

According to the San Francisco Bulle? tin tho Modou Indians, iu 1847, cut off aud massacred a party of twenty-eight persons nt Bloody Point; two years later they murdered a party of eighteen per? sons near Tulo Lake.

The names are given of thirty to forty men, in addition to those included above, whose deaths are kuown to have been caused by prowling bands of Mo docs. This tribe has always been war? like and aggressive. De Morttjis.?Mr. Samuel Robinson was found dead in his bod, at the house of Jesse Carbide, on last Saturday morn? ing.

The works were built by tho Confederacy, at a cost, including buildings, of upwards of $250, 000, when Confederate money was little below gold in value. Crime at Tnc Capital.?Immoral houses are now in full operation in Washington, ready for such visitors as may choose to be victimized. The managers have thus far been very suc? cessful ou a few residents here, and seve? ral largo robborios havo been reported. A large influx of thieves, burglars, pick? pockets, ifcc, aro not only expected, but will be duly provided for by a corps of detectives, whoso services are considered necessary to tho good Dame of Washing? ton. Burned to Death.?A little girl, three years old, tho daughter of a co lorod mac aamed Cresor Maniganlt, liv? ing at tho Seven Milo Hill, Soath Caro? lina Railroad, was burned to death Tuesday, aboat noon.

He has been u resident of Augusta for several years, but his in? firmities have been of such a serious na tnre as to confine him to his residence for most oi tho time, Havana journals say that ou insurrec tion broke out iu the town of Arccibo.
