COLUMBIA, 8. C. Wednesday Morning, March 17,1876. Ia his recently published interview, Governor Chamberlain informs the pnblio that he owns ia part, bat does not inspire the utterances of, the Union-Herald. A*k the editor, he says, and "be will tell you that I never dic? tated a word or line for that paper." More's the pity. It sadly Deeds a guar? dian. It makes a specialty of systematic disparagement of gentlemen who have given the Governor a generous and unaelfl?h support. It seeks to throw down the oolnmns opon whioh he leans. It affects to believe that tbe Conservatives have entered into a ooali tion with oorrnpt Badioals, to seeoure offices and divide tbe profits; that they are taking advantage of their mistakes, and laying snares for their unwary feet. This sort of treattneut of those, who, sinoe he laid the founda? tions of his policy in his inaugural message, have ohoriahed the Go? vernor in their own regards, and Bought to commend him to the most intelligent and npright of his own political faith, to say the least of it, is causeless, undeserved and hurtful. There is more than the lack of appre? ciation in it; there is more, even, than injustice. It tends to sap the good understanding of elements whose only bond of union is the poblio good. Why this persistent detraction? It is either, a thing of habit, reokless and unmeaning, or it is designed as a lash to drive Conservatives from maintain? ing their own proper position. If the latter, we have to say that this journal has no ' right' to spread a Procustean oouoh for those who support the Go? vernor, and then to mutilate their honest opinions, and suppress their sincere convictions, in order to qualify them to lie upon it. If it come from ugly habit and be the ordinary pastime, indulged in, in this instance, from lack of discrimination, in forbidden fields, it may, perhaps, be pardoned on this ao oonut. But it looks unseemly. It is gratifying to know, however, that the Governor holds himself aloof from any participation in the evil insinua? tions and mischievous imputations, directed against those of whom he doss not say too mach when he admits that their oourse towards him and his administration has been "marked by great political generosity and patriot? ism." A newspaper may well be free, untrammeled and outspoken, and yet abstain from a style of remark, viola tive of propriety, bordering on sense? lessness, glaring and offensive in per? version, and injariooa to tbe best con? servative influences?those wbioh rise above party?in tbe Slate. The Ca.rdoxt> lnvratttfatlon Poatponed Till Tnarsdajr, at M M. The General Assembly convened in joint session, yesterday, at 12 M., to hear the counsel of Treasurer Cardoso upon tbe address to the Governor for his removal from office. The Clerk read tbe report of the Special Joint Committee, embraoing theoharges and specifications, and also the rules of prooedare adopted in this case. The Treasurer appeared at the bar of the House, attended by his legal advisers, Messrs. Porter, C. D. Melton and You manB. Tbe President having an? nounced that the joint assembly was ready to proceed, Mr. Melton asked for himself and oolleagues an exten? sion of time to make further prepara? tion on the side of the defence. Tbey found themselves wholly unprepared to do justioe to the Treasurer, the General Assembly or the importaut matters in issue. Ho uekod to be al? lowed till Thursday, 18th instaut, at 12 AI. Mr. Porter joined in this re? quest, representing bis own aud his colleague's unfamiliarity with the olass of papers, books of aooount, &o., whioh it was their duty, in the clroum stanoes in whioh they were placed, to examine with oare. The Senate re? tired to its own ball to consider the proposition. It was agreed to without opposition in thai body and eononrrsd in by the House, after some objections, by a vote of yeas 85, nays~17. The Washington Chronicle, a Re publican paper, thus oondemua the carpet-bag Government whioh hat well nigh made Vicksbnrg, Miss.., bankrupt: "The debt of the elty of Yiokoburg has increased fr, six years from $18.000 to S 1,400.000. This remarkable aud un? fa vorablo increase has resulted in para? lyzing pnblio enterprise and ruining the commerce and basin ess of tbe aity.

Butler will doubtless never be board from in reference to the pillag? ing of the wrooked Italian bark Gio vauni on tbo Massachusetts coast, a few days ago. Tbe vessel was loaded with wine and other valuable merchan? dise. Sho went to pieces, and a gang of banditti?real banditti, mind you? rushed upon the dismantled vessel aud took everything they oonld find, while sixteen dead victims of the disaster were tossing in the surf beside them. Breaking into the wine casks, they in? serted their huads aud drauk them? selves iuto a frenzy, which resulted iu a wild and bloody conflict, fatal to mauy of them. This occurred on the soil of pious Massachusetts, and if Sheridan or Butler has discovered any? thing approaching to it iu banditti?rn in Louisiana, they havo not mentioued it. ? . ? ? ? The annual meeting of the German Sooiety of South Carolina was held on last Friday evening, when the Trea? surer made his annual statement. During the year, the society collected 3557.51. Of this amount, all but $15.41 was spent in providing for tbo 1,200 immigrants who arrived here during the year. The sooiety was or? ganized several years ago, to aid desti? tute immigrants. It is truly wonder? ful how muoh has been done with so little means. The sooiety feel con? strained to ask the aid of tbe State to enable them to carry out their lauda? ble design of gaining desirable acces? sions to our population. Spain ought to consider herself luoky in being allowed to make repa? ration for the Virginius outrage to the extent of paying ?500 for each victim of the bloody Burrell. As they slaugh? tered forty-one nnfortnnate men, "in? cluding Verona, Ryan, Ceepedes, and Del Sol, Spain will be compelled to shell ont about $102,500 to Unole Sam. It isn't every man who would value his life ae low as $2,500 even in Spanish gold. In view, however, of the implied apolqgy of Spain, and the acknowledgment of the fact that ehe had been guilty of violating the lawe of nations, perhaps our people will be satisfied with the settlement.

Feb 12f3 The Value of Ouk Southeun Forest Trees.?The steady decrease iu tbe forests of the United States, as well ae elsewhere, is constantly en? hancing tbe value of Southeru timber, where tbe immense natural growths of various descriptions is as yet iu good supply.

[Charleston News and Courier. Texas is lucky, aud Galvestau will be apt to iuHUgnrate direct trade by a line of steamers sooner than any other Southern city. A company has been formed in London, with a capital of ?3,000.000, for the purpose of carrying live cattle from Galveston to England. They propose to briog emigrants and merchandise, back. The agent of tbe company has already arrived, aud tbe first steamer is now due at Galveston. The vessels of tbe line are fitted up with a series of conueoted hammocks for scouring cattle on voyages, and it is believed by procuring stock at low prices at the source of supply, a great profit can be realized. Each steamer will curry about 15,000 bead of cattle, and make tbe outward passage iu about sixteen days.

St. Patrick's Dat.?Oar Hibernian friends will celebrate the anniversary of Ireland's pstron saint, this evening, by a sumptuous dinner at the Wheeler House. St. Patrick was an earnest, pious snd toiling benefactor of the people, and gathered them into the fold of Christianity with a aueoess similar to that of the apostles on the day of Pentecost. He has always been held in high esteem by the Irish, whose anoeetors his labors so abund? antly blessed. This tribute has taken the plesssnt form of a dinner or rap* per, at whioh pious recollection is blended with the gastronomic enjoy? ment of turkey and partridge, and tbe gustatory relish of a wee drop of the national beverage.

Loss or Inn ajtd Pbopbbty. ?The tornado referred to in yesterday's Pncamx, whioh occurred on Monday afternoon, on Mill Creek, was very disastrous, bat fortunately, we have reason to believe, did not ex? tend moro than four or Ovo miles. The storm first struck Mr. Padgett's pre? mises, where a colored mau waa killed and auuther had his leg broken and his baok seriously injured. The dwell? ing was completely demolished, tbe mill-bouse blown into tbe pond, tbe cotton bcrew overthrown, a team of mules, with the wagon, was carried by tbo force of tbe wind into the pond, and two of tbe animals drowned. Mr. Champuy was badly hurt by falling timbers. About \yl miles beyond, tbe tornado, in ita Notherly course, did tbe greatest injury to life aud limb. Here Mr. Wm. Davia' house was wrecked, hi* young daughter killed, aud his wife aud a young lad living there severely injured. Half a mile further on, tbe roof of Mr. Jan. Thomas' houso was torn off, aud other serious damage done to his property, and Brown's Methodist Chapel de? molished. The storm bad cot spent its fury when it reached this last men? tioned place, and fears are entertained, from the velocity and magnitude of the tornado, that considerable damage to life and property was inflicted at other points before the force of tbe wind was exhausted. Even in Colum? bia there were visible effects of the power of tbo tornado, as leaves and other evidenoes of the mighty wind were seen driven furiously through the city. We await further particulars of the destruotiveneae of the atorm with much anxiety, and would beg onr friends in the section so unfortunately visited to forward to as at once suoh further information as may be within their kuowledge.
