Hoc. A. H. Stephen? baa been dts
tassj-aiahed among Southern politicians
ior Ute last two years aa an apologist
fa* Presideut Grant. . Ho has taken
Iroajaeot occasion to ?kalt his talents
sMsd eharaoter. He has steadily main?
tained that Congress, and not the Pre*
t?dobt, was to blame for the Looisiana
?suepatioo. Since tbe last scene, bj
which bayonets supplanted ballotB in
deciding the qualifications of members
of the Legislature, Mr. Stephens has
kept an ominous silence. The Louisi?
ana Question, bo says, has not reached
the House, and he will not undertake
texoross a river before ho comes to it.
In conversation, howoTor, ho expresses
deep concern and apprehension for
tka condition of tbe country. A cor
respondent of -the Aogasta GonstUu
mumaU&t, supposed to be Judge Hook,
gives an aoconnt of a recent interview
with Mr. Stephens. He said that he
segar/ded the re-election of Grant by
aha Radical party to the Presidency
sm the greatest possible calamity that
Tooold befall the country, and that
>it would be his utmost endeavor
??er? ^s it|iiad beeo for the. two years
past, to prevent that atate of thiDgs
which would bring It about. He de
.preoated'tttpro-dept Breaking on the

when silence, prudence and a mastetly
inactivity are its highest policy, be

to develop its pernicious schemes, and

wa* engaged, yesterday,
im a diseased on upon the report of the
?pacial oosamUtee appointed to inves
'lajsafSTe^aggg ?g*inet Senator Thad/
<L Andrews. Mr. Danoan moved that
tsetse expelled. Mr. Maxwell moved
*s> aoaeod, by substituting, the word
-censured" in Hew of that "expelled."
Upon this, he delivered a speech in*
4eoded to show that there were no
?bargen and pp snecificatious, and that
tan whole ^rboeeding was not acoord
. aag to law. Mr. Nash followed on the
other side,' taking the ground that the
Senate was not a noqrt oi law or a
-ooert martial. Ii was cosapsteut to
judge and pass opoo the conduct of
ita members. Mr. Jones maintained
that the testimony was ioBaffioiect and
wusetisfaotory, aqd justified no action
further than ita mere reception as in?
formation. Mr. Jeter, who was one of
the eommittee who made tbe majority
(report, expressed his own dissatisfac?
tion with the testimony of Humbert.
.Bat he regarded Andrews' own admis
eicus aa to partnership with Humbert
sat the profits of purchasing County
paper as fatal to him. In answer to
the question, what was the considera?
tion that he was to give Humbert for
laoooring his drafts and taking his
?power, he bad answered that he was to
davi^e the disooant with him. Mr.
Fetor o,uotad tbe statute which makes
o pablio officer liable to indiotmenl,
witti?ut privilege of traverse, and upon
?conviotiou, flaa and imprisonment,
who ab*\l bo guilty of-any.official mis
eoodoct, habitual aegligence, habitual
drankennesa, corruption, or fraud, or
-oppression. Sorely, he oonoladed, we
oaaaot regard as a light offonoa the
??eaplioity of a Senator with an official
ssi corrupt transactions, when tbe
official himself is visited' with snob
etera condemnation of the law. Men
arbe make law for others must not
eesaree exemption from ita penalties
when they violate it. They are ro
apepsible.ia a greater degree Iban

preisen ted the presentment of the grand

I that the scheme of drawing jurie* bee
been,perverted in practice. It ia eo
d?ne ae 4o exolude i uteUigence and
oompetenoy. The remarkable fact la
mentioned, that, with a' majority of
white Totere in the County, not one
fifth of them are represented on the
jury lists at the present term of the
oonrt. The grand jory very properly
present the law and the practice under
it as a grievance, tending to destroy
the confidenco of the County in the ad?
ministration of justice. The evil com
plained of in Marion is common to
most of the Ooontics of the State. In
many of them there havo been failures
to have any ooort at all, in conee
queues either of the blundering or de?
sign of the Jury Gommisoioners. Big
criminals have escaped trial in thia
way. The law puts it in the power of
the Commissioners to constitnto the
jury to eoit themselves or party. They
are to prepare *'a list of such inhabitants
of their respective Counties, not ab?
solutely exempt, as they may think
well qualified to serve as jurors."
There is the root of the evil.
Dr. 'Barker, of Bdgefleld, we are
told, made a sensible and judioiona
speech, on Wednesday, upon the Barn
well-BlaokviHe matter, rebuking the
dap-trap and partisan appeals which
had bean resorted to. Yesterday, O.
P. Leslie led off in a violent and
abusive, harangue npon mattere and
things in general. It was the same
speech that he bad delivered on several
occasions during the present session,
equally appropriate to one subject as
to another, and never touching the
merits of any. Mr. Miller, of Beau?

To THi Editor of tot Phcbnix:
During tbe period which hen elapsed
sinoe the death of Jadge Green, end
more especiallysince the publication
of my cardio the Union-Herald, of the
6th instant; I have weite? patiently
for expressions? of opinion from the
people npon this important subject.
I consider it the doty of every ortieen
of the State to make the question of
election of a Judge, who is to decide
npon matten of law end equity be
tween man and man, a matter of indi?
vidual as well as public interest. I
also consider it his duty to nse his in?
fluence, so fares is consistent with
justice and personal dignity, to tho
eleotion of an npright, honorable, ca?
pable Judge. Until within a few days,
however, but little has beeu aaid, and,
as for as can be judged, but little done
toward, this eud. Two days since, two
articles appeurud in the Union-Herald,
one t>igued "Republican" aud the
other "Conservator." The first was
evidently written by some one who du
siro.H the position for himself or for u
friend, us the only qualification re?
quired is that be ahall be u Republi?
can. In otbor words, the candidate
may bo totally unqualified iu every re?
spect to fill tbe ofnoe, bot if hu cuuld
be couuted ou to vote for the meuuest
dog in the State, should he bo nomi?
nated for office by the regular Repub?
lican party, then he should receive tbe
vote of that party for any office to
which he may aspire. "Conservator"
takes a different view, and ulthough
his candidate seems to stand no chance
of eleotion, "Conservator" certainly
baa no reason to be ashamed of his
nominee, for the name of Qeneral J.
B Kershaw is synonymous with all
that is upright, gentlemanly and pure.
That be is honest and capable, po one
will deny; tbat a just and equitable
construction of the law in all oases
brought before him would be certain,
were he to be elected Judge, none can
doubt; but tbeo he lacks what is to
some a moat important, and to others
the only, requisite?tbe belief that a
Republican can do nothing wrong, Snd
tbat a Democrat oan do nothing right.
So muoh for Oeu. Kerabaw.
Now I am frea lo say* that were all
other things equal, being a Republi?
can. I should prefer to ,see a Republi?
can elected; but where" Stich marked
differences exist, whefe the candidates
are incapable and dishonorable npon
the one band, and hobest and oapable
upbn the of her, no true man can hesi?
tate. I do not advocate the election
of any man, but. simply ask what every
citizen o( tbe Staje ,Uas a right to de
mand, tbat. tbe beat man be chosen.
I have no personal .acquaintance with
any of the candidates .except F. J.
Moses, Jr., W, ;J. Shipper and L O.
Northrop. Of the first named gen?
tlemen (?) I havo already spoken, and
hundreds oan testify to the, truth of
my statements. Of W. J,. Whipper,
the lees said ss to his qualification to
fill ths office of Jndge, the better.
That he is unreliable, unedrupdlous
and dissipated, is well known. Mr. L.
O. Northrop is, without doubt, far the
best man talked of in Republican cir?
cles; but has be the ability and experi?
ence tc fit him to fill aooh a respsnsi
blo position? Is he sufficiently well
read in law to decide justly and rightly
all cases whioh most of necessity cdme
before him? My opinion, aud that of
those beet qualified to judge, is that
he is not so qualified. But ahould ho
be elected, he will not throw that diu
grace upon tbe State aud the Republi?
can party that most of necessity fall
npou them from the eleotion of either
of tbe two first named candidates.
There are men in tbo State who oan
bo eleoted, v?ho would reflect credit
npou both the State aud the Legisla?
ture tbat elected them. Let such a
man he ohoseu, nud thus prove to tbe
people that our representatives are uot
actuated solely by selfish interests, und
that ull offices within their gift are not,
as charged, Qlled only with those who
have been deepest in corruption aud
party trickery. In the election of
Jndge for the Third Circuit, let tbo
aotion of (he Legislature be snch a re?
buke to the Chief Justice of tbe Su?
preme Court of this State, tbat he will
not again eo demean himself oa to
lobby in the interest of his own son,
and more especially when that son is
so notoriously bad, and when no one
osn possibly know the fact of the son's
outrageously bad oharacterbetter than
bis own ratbar. EDWIN F. GARY.

Anticipate the Enbmy. ?Rational
reader, if the aspect of tbe weather
was unoertain, you would not be
fooliah enough to venture out without
au overcoat or an umbrella. Have the
forecast, then, to protect yourself at
this dangerous sesson witb something
more important than either of these
articles. Strengthen your stomsoh
and nervous system, regulate your
liver and your bowels, tone all your
organs and obeer your animal spirits
witb that agreeable cordial, tonio and
alterative, Hostetter'a Stomsoh Bitters.
So shall you surely escape the diseases
wbiob fasten upon tbe feeble and de?
bilitated. "Suffer und be strong,"
says tho proverb; but "Be strong that
you may not suffer," is the wiser
maxim?aod of all strengthening pre?
parations this is the safest, tbe surest,
tbe most genial. As a remedy, as well
as an antidote, for dyspepsia, fever and
ague, and liver disease, there is no
combination of vegetable specifics at

it iu efficaoy. Anticipate tho enemy.
The elements of innumerable diseases
are afloat iu this raw, damp, mephitio
winter air. Will you defend yourself
Hguiust them or not, good reader?
1 hat is tbe question. A bottle or two
of tbe great defensive medicine of tbe
uge, llo.itetter's Bitters, will so
strengthen and brace op your bodily
powers as to enable them to "laugh a
siege to scorn." Tbe morbid matter
which was exhaled in perspiration
through your pores in summer finds
no suoh free egress now. A powerful
counteracting agent is, therefore,
needed, and you have it iu Hostetter'a
Bitters. They neutralize tbe maleries

and regulato all tho secretive organs.
Nothing oan be more harmless or more
