COLETMBlA, ggj Wednes lay Morning, January 27, '75. } ? i . ? Unbridled License of Ppeecli. Iq the Honse of Representatives, on Monday, a shore discussion took plaoe ?pon the bill to mako the offices of Ooauty Auditor and County Treasurer vof the' several Counties in this State elective. It was reported favorably upon by the Committee on Privileges and Elections, and oame up in the .general orders. . Mr. C. P. Leslie, of Sarawell, took the floor in opposition to the bill. He did not disouss its provisions; he did not examine it ?Uber in the light of prinoiple, or ftolioy, or right. He denounced it as a .proposition to turn the State over to the Democracy, and an act, if it should piss, of political auloide on the part of the Republican party. He did not develop, by any argument or state kflsent, how this would oome about. He dimply rang the ohanges upon the dis? asters to party which would ensue upon its adoption. Ho confined his view steadily to this aspect of the matter. To give the election of those jinblio officers to the people, would be rtOfgiv? away the patrouagu, power and ? money in which the party lived, moved ?and had its being. This 'was narrow ?and iw'goled enough, one would have 'thought. But the member went & good deal further in another direction. He used all the miscbievouB power of ^mis-statement and perversion of truth and facts, in a savsge denunciation of ?what he called "Democracy." He ap .uaaled to the spirit of party, caste, -calor and prejudice. He represented the Republican party as the product of jyar, bloodshed, toil, danger and sacri ?Co. X? CmOsCw plirsssology, it 'w*d been running round the tree to keep .iroro being shot. . Having escaped the 'WiVet, the iasb, the bayonet, Ku Ktux, ? rifle clubs and tax uuions, it should uyitiuoir deliberately consent to a mea uare which would cut its precious throat. That was Mr. Leslie's speech, inter Barded with the peculiar expressions "which belong to the dialect is which ho speaks. The venerable Mr. Beatty, of York, while not favoring the bill as .reported, took occasion to express his /regret at these senseless and fierce ap? peals to party spirit. He oame to rep? resent tho people of South Carolina, tatrt to fan tho flames of division and contention between the classes of race or party into which they were divided. Mr. Gritteuden, of Greenville, also re -monstratod against this mode of pre? senting questions whioh concern the ipablio interest. He described the -oajm which prevailed in our politioal neas. The parties whioh sought the xuiCfrages of that people all professed a desire for reform, retrenchment und purer management of affairs. In this they agreed, however much they dif? fered in other matters. , It was upon these terms tho present Administration oame into power. -The Governor had -sent in meaaagea'fulry in acaordauce with this view and purpose. The Speaker of the House, in his opening address, had refrained from the pas? sionate partisan appeals usually deli? vered from that stand. Expressions of ?satisfaction, of oonfidonoe in this now departure?if we may so term it?had oafino from all parts of the State, and the people appeared to be nnitcd in the essentials of good government. In the midst of this .universal good feel? ing, jarring most unpleasantly npon <the harmony of the Generul Assem? bly, was constantly heard the one dis? cordant note of tho member from Baruwell, seeking to stir up strife, to rake in tho ashes of tho past, and to arouse bitter and relentless prejudices. The reader will observe tho purpose tve have in view in this reference. Wo are not discussing the measure itself. We have abstained from anything like sharpness of comment npon the ob jeotionuble language and unworthy ob? jects .of the member from Barnwoll. We uoto the oconrrenoo as showing tho presenco and pertinacity of an ob? stacle, in the way of the good under? standing among the people, which all juatand sensible persons desire to pro ?mote. The real cuuee of the disturb? ance ol agreeable relations between the white- and oolored oitizens, ouu usually bo J*und in the interested motives of some third party, seeking to embroil them. Thoro was less good will, wo fear, on tho part of the colored mem? bers towards their assooiutea on tho other politioal side, after this speech of -Leslie's than before. If not, it was be? cause they detected and repudiated hin venomous meaning. Many of thorn urn peouliiiriy susceptible to just this sort ol rhodomontsde. His speech ivastb bar on injury, or attempted in jury, to them. It was in violation of the . spirit and. understanding upon which the administration of Governor Chamberlain has, so far, proceeded. It was oontrary to the public peaee. It would have been entirely proper, we think, if he had been called to order, for transcending the decorum of the body, and for indulging in irrelevant, nntrnthfnl and mischievous strictures. Ho left the question to pour out a tirade of unreasonable and offensive personalities, and to stir up anger und strife where thero should be concord and amity. Shall this Thersites be allowed to disport himself after this abusive fashion? The Speaker should have interposed his authority, or Borne member of his party of discernment brought him to accoant. They may rest assured that such a sonseleRS and odions clamor as they permitted him to raise, will do them no good, even in a party sense. The fundamental idea of his speech was, that party is supe? rior to country, ia far above right and must be kept infused with bitterness, wronfgand all nnoharitablents?. In that sign it oannot conquor or rule. Salary of Member*. A discussion took place in the Houee of Representatives, yesterday, upon the subjeot of tho p*y of members. The Committee on tho Judiciary, through Mr. C. P. Leslie, reported a bill to declare tho true iut-nt and meaning of the Act of tho General Assembly to regulate the pay of mem? bers, passed in March, 1872. This Act places the umount of salary ut $600 for each member of tho next General As? sembly, and twenty couts mileage each way. According to the bill now re? ported, tho true intent and meaning of the words "the next Genoral Assem? bly" embrace ail General Assernuiies, and tho salary indicated iu tho Act of '72 becomes tho fixed salary of mem? bers. Mr. Meetze, of Lexington, moved to strike out the enacting olause. In a clear and earnest speech, he maintained that there is now no law fixing the pay of members; thut it has a right, under the Constitution, to fix it. and that it is its duty to pass a bill and settlo tho matter. Mr. Barn well made a review of the existing law, as gathered from the several Acts upon the subject, and was decidedly of the opinion that it allows only the amount of SO a day. This involvep, of oourse, a different construction to be placed npon the word "next" from that taken in the report. Mr. Barnwell briefly but ably presented the considerations which, apart from the law, should pre? vail in determining a question of this kind. The State was bankrupt. That is the word which expresses its true condition. It could only offer to pay its creditors fifty cents o J tho dollar. It had no credit, not a particle. The General Assembly bad to sit in the cold aud to dispense with gun, because it could not puy its billy to the gas and coal companies. If it meant anything by talk of reform, it must apply the principle to itself. If it meant, as it should, to diminish salaries, it. must, begin at home. Its taxable property was $14.0,Uj,000. It was out of ull reason and proportion to spend ?150, 000 iu legislative expenses. Those just aud reasonable views were com batted by some members, but tho grounds npon which tbey argued were purely personal. Their services were worth 8600, and, therefore, they should receive that amount. It wua very plain to us, looking on, that the irregular aud objectionable passing the salary appropriation Aot just before the r, cess for tho holi? days gavo a great momentum, yester? day, to thoso who were determined, right or wrong, just or unjust, not to fall below the sum contemplated iu tho action taken at that lime. San Francisco has about iJO.OOO Chi? nese iu her population, whose chief vooation, according to the papers pub? lished there, id stealing. They ure rapidly spreading ovor the best por? tions of the oity, as they secure a resi? dence in an eligible location and turn it into an "eatco-sleopee" house, and from that hour the neighborhood is doomed, as their filthy and immoral habits drive the adjoining residents elsewhere, aud tho Mougoli?ns at once secure their property. Inn spirit of gloomy foroboding, the Chronicle soys: "Ku Ktuxism, as it bus been re? ported in the South, will not be a cir? cumstance in the annuls of orime and bloodshed us compared with the san? guinary carnival ready to borst forth in all its terrors as the dawn of the day peops forth, when the cry of 'drivo oat the Chinamen' will sound in our crowded thoroughfares. Lot us calmly eoan the state of affairs in this, 'our second Kong Kong,' and do onr best to avert the approaching storm." Here must be a field for "Federal interference." The query is: "Is a negro better tbuu a Chinaman?" Casto is obnoxious to the Radicals, aud euste evidently exists in California. THE STATE l*RCM?L*ATUflB. Tuesday, January 20, 1875. SENATE. 0 Mr.' Jervay presented petition of sundry citizens of Parish of St. Thomas, and St. Thomas, Tillage of Oaiuhoy, Charleston County, praying passage of an Aot empowering County Commissioneru of Charleston County to straighten the road leading from Caiuhoy, cu tho Wando River, to tho Brick Church pclling precinct.

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Consideration of bill to maku the otiiec? of County Auditor and Trea? surer elective continued, without deci? sive result. Mr. Bampfiehl introduced bill to de? fine tnort) particularly duties of tho Comptroller-General.. Also, presented potition of Auditor cf Beaufort, pray? ing unpaid salary. Adjourned. The War Policy.?At the Federal capital rumors with regard to the policy of tbo Administration towards Spain nro abundant. The President, the Radical leaders concurring, thinks that a smart capital may be made out of hectoring over Spain. Tho embar? rassments in this country growing out of Cuban affairs are to be brought for? ward, and tho Spanish Government is to be arraigned for the rigid nud bloody revenged whioh have been meted out to American citizens by Cuban authorities. If war follows, the United States takes Cuba, and Grant achieves more glory. If poor Spain comes down, as she is obliged to do, and pays, that will be a feather iu President Grant's cap. The move? ment is altogether safe. The feeble? ness of Spain is a guarantee for that. Much is expected, therefore, out of our Spanish relations. In this way a vicious Government hopes to break the force of the public disapprobation of its usurpations. At the same time, be it observed that the weakness of Spain assures the President that be may earry ou this foreign war without any greut draft upon the people, aud can keep bis foot on the discontented States, lie will not need much uT uu army, aud may have no great work for the recruiting officer. Thus we go. The country is torn by dissensions nud oppressions, and force ia fixing up its means to tucrease its power. There is not time to relievo the oppressed peo? ple and to resoae them from iguorunt and unscrupulous rulers, but there is u plenty of time to increase the tneaus of oppression.?Richmond Dispatch. United States District Court. Charleston*, Jauuury 25.? Judge Bryan presiding. The petition of Charles K. Williford, ot Anderson, for voluntary bankruptcy, was referred lo Registrar Jaeger. Tho petition of Johu Sinclair, to enforce a lieu for building materials, wus referred to Registrar Clawson. In the petition of W. L. Roddy and otbera, it was or? dered that J. C. H. Clauascn, assignee, do pay the taxed costs. The petition of Thomas S. Jeffreys, for sale of pro? perty set nsido as homestead iu the matter of Joseph D. Johnson, bank? rupt, was referred to Registrar Chiw son. The petitions of Victoria M. Cbupcan, Silvuuio F. Cbupeau and Peter A. Cbuzal, for the establishment of liena iu tho matter of T. T. Cha pouu, bankrupt, wero referred to Registrar Carpenter. Iu tbo mutter of Henry T. Penke, of tho firm of Peuke & Miles, in bankruptcy, it was ordered that a new warrant of seizure bo issued by the Registrar to tho Mar? shal. The Court then udjourncd. A Mr. Luttrell stated on the floor of Congress tho other day, that Grant's Indian agent at the Round Valley re? servation, in California, is in tbo habit of tying tho Indians up and whipping them like dogs. This very humane agent is the Rev. L. Bouchard. Preachers are among the best of men until they are turned politicians aud office-holders. When one of them does this it would be perfectly sui? cidal to trust bim with a $5 bill as far as n tiickly infant could throw a seven ty-two-poonder. m * ?-? Mr. Augustus Andrea, of Greenville, died a few days ago. A Sound Heai/tii Maxim.?"Order is heaven'a first law." This great maxim applies with peculiar force to the discharge of the vital functions. Disease inevitably supervenes upon physical irregularity, just us calamity is enre to follow wane of system and punctuality in tho affairs of life. But while it is next to impossible to over? come settled menial habits of disorder, it is quite feasible to remedy habitual irregularities of the body. Discipline tho nnrnly organs by wiko and timely medication, aud health will be estab? lished upon a permnucut basis. Al? though there are many remedies pre? scribed for this purpose, there is not one among them cm compare iu di? rectness and joromptitude of ucMon with Hoetotter's Stomach Bitters. For every disorder affecting the bowels, liver and stomuch, and for the nume? rous sympathetic nervous uilmetitH to which alimentary or bilious disturb? ances give rise, tho Bitters are a most reliable specific. Their woudrons effi? cacy is attributable to the fact that they first remove tho cause of such maladies, irregularity, mid then, by their tonic operation, repair the loss of physical substance produced by sickness. Constipation, biliousness, dyspepsia, heurtbnrn, sleeplessness, intermittent fevers, rheumatism and nervous tremors always succumb to the operation of this t-ufe and potent medicine. A regular habit of body, a good appetite, sound sioep aud etwy digestion are among tho blessings which its use confers. It invigorates, relieves depression of mind, and by promotiug complete assimilation, ma? terially ussists ni covering the uugles and hollow pluces ol nil attenuated, shrunken frame with tirm, healthv flesh. .T22t11 * TnE Lost Laces ok a Baroness ? The suit of the BuroUeSH Olga de Maltita Fraloff, of Ra*si>t, against tho New York Central and Ilndson liiver Railroads, to leeover 875,000, the plaintiff's valuation of a lot of Hue antique luces lost by carelessness ou tho part of the railroad lrom the bag? gage of the lady, aud alleged to have ueeu aloleu from her trunk whiio bhe was on a journey from Now York to Niagara Fulls, ha?, on u second trial of the case, been nwarded a verdict of $10.000. Tb'i lady, it is eaid, waa so much grieved by her loss of the luces thut for some days after the disaster she mourned und rtfuscd to bo com? forted, und eveu meditated suicide. Mr. A. T. Stewart, the meruhaut prinae, who was called as au txpt.it, testified thut the kind of luces spoken of woro ancient and not now in ?.be market, aud tho valuation was some? times fanciful. Death from a Fame Charge.?Au iuquest was held ou Friday iu New York, in the case of John Merz, a Ger? man, who died at Bellevue Hospital ou January 1 from erysipelas, follow? ing injuries received from an accidental fall in front of a Inger beer saloon, ou West Forty-seventh street. A verdict of death from accidental injuries was rendered. When, on tho duy of his fall, Merz appeared at tho police sta? tion, suffering from his hurts, he mude u charge ugaiust Henry Yullinger, the keeper of the saloon, of causing his injuries by throwing him from the saloon. The charge sff.'cted Volliogtr bo seriously thut ho became deranged, refusing all food for ten days, and drinking so desperately thut he died u few days ugo. Au inquest was hold in bis case on Thursduy, when it wus shown that hu bud not used uuy vio? lence toward Merz. The jury iu his ense returned a verdict of death from physical exhaustion. The present'Legislature of Massa? chusetts has detected a number of de? linquencies iu the performance of duties of Magistrates and District At? torneys. Few Magistrates have re? turned anything since 1858 (tho begin? ning of tho ago of corruption) for unclaimed fees of officers and wit? nesses. And yet thu District Attornoys huve Ottt-Heroded tho Magistrates in withholding and appropriating to themselves forfeited reoogniziucos. In ten years receipts from this somce ran up as high as?24,000 and 881,230 in two Counties, while from some there are ho returns. Tho sums returned varied from $237 to 8G.00O, and $12,000, and $15,000, and so on. Wo had expected better things of Massachusetts. It is bad whon the magistracy of a State become corrupt.

These deservedly celebrated and popu? lar medioines have effected a revolu? tion in the healing art, and proved the fallacy of several maxims which have for many years obstructed the progress of medical .science. The false supposition that "Consumption is incurable," deterred pbysicuns from attempting to find remedies for that disease, aud patients afflicted with it reconciled themselves to death without making an effort to escape from a doom which they supposed to be una? voidable. It iu now proved, however, that Consumption can be cured, and that it bus been cured in a very great num? ber of cases (some of them apparently desperate ones) by Sohenok's Pulmo nie Syrup alone; and in other oases by the same medicine in connection with Schecck's Sea Weed Tonio and Man? drake Pills, one or both, according to the requirements of the case. Dr. Schenck, himself, who enjoyed uninterrupted good health for more thau forty years, was supposed, at one time to be at the very gate of death, his physicians having pronounced his case hopeless, and abandoned him to his fate. He was cured by the afore? said medicines, and, since his recovery, many thousands similarly affected have usrd Dr. Sobenck's preparations with the same remarkable success. Full directions uccompany each, making it not absolutely necessary to personally sec Dr. Sohenck, unless pa? tients wish their lungs examined, and for this purpose he ia professionally at his principal office, corner Sixth and Arch streets, Philadelphia, every Mon? day, where all letters for advice must be addressed.
