JULY 22. 1868. 1 The South Carolina Legislature. 1 We style it a South Carolina Legislature ' because it is so anting, ami lias the present power to m?ke ami nn make lnwa. The I meeediop* so far hive I-ecu preliminary, except the pa??oge o( the homestead law, as required I y the Constitution, and the elec , tion of l*i iie?i State* Senators. Thomas J. | Robkktsox ha* been el.cti-d for the short i term, ami P. W. SivvRn for the long term, i . f o ?_ . ... _ ... I. # .. t mr? cia?>?r. b i< cimhi in n trnmtjin 01 me more Cotm sv^'lv- r r' of the Legislature; '< although lei- I' publican, he ie not < ro bi t-r, nor 5- ' no npootntu from ' Ids Stale like Mr Mukky, his competitor. ' He is n Northern n tin by Lirlh, ami more c cx?r usable for hi?, wi'liitgncss to put thi* S'?te under negro nile, tban any native of * the leant int? Ul<e? r w be. Anativclorn ' mill educated Son h Carolinian, who ndvo- J vales, fu.m choice, the schemes of this Tirol- | ivnl C?ugreee, van only he iuOnenced by one n>otiv?? a lovj? of office. Mr. Sawykr, from his cdutntit n, tuny bo more excusable for bit Radicalism, but a unlive of the State, who lints read hooks and history, nutl seen the Africans all tils life, who strives to place them in power and control over oil the r'. fairs of tlic State, like Mr. Mack?y, must be mistrusted, even by the negroes themselves. They know very veil that they arc not en* title 1 to l?e fhe rulers of the State, alilmugh h" nnd others may tc'l them so, and that it i? not f"t the good of their own race, or for the good of iho whites, that they should be. The question of removing the Legislature t<? Greenville for the balance of the summerlias been discus cd In the J-egielnture, but we see Ibnt a vote upon the proposition in the B'-nnte, laid it on the tahle, by 13 to 5b We learn by genllcrm-n jnstfrom Columbia, that the proposition will again be brough up, and it i? not yet positively certain tlm it may not succeed. Th's meeting of Ilio Legislature is a very inipor'nnt one, and must have an immense inflito *ee on (lie welfare of the Slate, whether for evil or for good. Wcliopc that there are good nnd sensible men enough in both I ranches t-> shape nnd carry through those measures that the country requires. The | Iloniest. n?l 15111 is one of these; wo rejoice Utah this tins been passed. We feel that, it ^ l.a? b.-en n ifiwt hm> And sore iliMAlrr to this Stale; that such a mea?are had not been perf-clrii more than twenty years ego, eiol tin-re wns no excuse for the Legislature which wns elected under the Constitution cj 18t,5, In it* refusal to eneet euch n low. A. Hill to | robot 'he properly rights of ninrrii <1 women, will also pnss this Legisl.v. tore; being required by the Constitution.? Mr. Amrm. Sr?'cr f?~ Ornenrille. wns the most. Active membetof the Conven lion in seettrinc the Adoption of the cTaubc of the Constitution enforcing tliis noble and benifieent measure Tliis is another thing which the old f-gvism cf the laic white Legislature rijeetrd, ns if lliey were rejoie-d aI the opportunity which the war ruin aflfnrdet of pi rpetuuting the spoliation of ftH the property and subsieteuce of the women of the eonntry. We hope the Legislature will pass over for the present, the attempt to oigsniae A system of free ecdiAnle, not that we nre oppos d to general education ; but the poverty of the S**i?'e, nnd the hope that Congress mny appr-qria'e mean? for se.hools In this State, is n powerful reason for non action f ?r the present Session. II<?n IX T. Corni*. Chairman of the Senate Jmlirlnrj Committee, has introduced a l?i!1 laying nil the State into eight Circuits ami providing for the election of oigh, Jni'sKS?iflre' ntilh, Pickens, Oconee, and Ar.dcraon, are to form one Circuit, This will he quite compact ami convenient, and every Com t House but on", approachable by railroad. Pickens is accessible by n # w honrs ride from Greenville. We believe there B'O members of this legislature ilcslrons of serving the State, and earning a reputation as real benefnc tors of the country in those matters where were parly is not concerned. There is a large poition of them in favor of removing *11 iliiffanchkriucnts, without regard to party, and it is pn?ible that before the laxly adjourn*, a resolution to this effect m y he pnsail, although the propoeitro* already Introduced, was tabled in the Sen a^c. It is hardly possible that any one projessing to he in faTor ot liberty can continue to-oppose the liberty of a large class of the kvet people In the State. As long as they <h> this tvir sincerity must be (questioned on all hau la. As soon as the Judiciary Bi 1 has pnssedi, the "lection for Judges will bike place. Ms. Cor.niv, w* learn, is spoken of as Chief Justice, Judge Mosks as one of the Appeal Judges, ?ho the other may he we know not, and It. is not kno.wn who ore to he ^lectedi Ckcuit Judges. Hot Weather in Greenville and AbroadTlie licat thia summer, so far, baa liccn very great. The thermometer at Greenville has been no high as 93? in the shade. In Itichmonil, on the lftth, it stood at *07? in the shade?two deaths there from sun stroke . in Wilmington, same dato, it ranged from Q70 *? iQt ??one ease snn stroke ; in Washington, name <h>y, heat stood at 91?; in Augusta 100?; in Favannsh 92?. On Sunday evening last, the very oppress ii?:e heat here nas relieved by a heavy (all, o! ruin, which greatly improved tho atmosphere as well, as loitered the drooping vegetation ; also, on Monday.night, wo had another shower, rinee vrblc.h time it. baa been pleasant enough and every ope soeins cheered with the prospects of tho.errp*. Tub articles of J. II, Uoonv.n, and S.

Fhe members of the Urcenvlllo Bar, with gen- ' Llemen also of the Bar from oilier Districts ' lid not let the occasion pass without giving 1 jxprcssion to their high appreciation of the ' Chancellor, both in his official and personal I character. J. P. listen, Kiq., of Anderson, < was selected as tho mouthpiece of tho fratcr- i nitjr. and in his usanl very felicitous manner, i ho gavo assurance to his Honor of tbo common footings of tbo Bar, their high eitccin fur tbo able, impartial and rourtc< as behavior of tbo Chancellor, and their profound regret at parting with hi* services, occasioned by the new order of things. IV o shall not attempt a report of the very appropriate remark* of Mr. Ukro, nor of tho reply of the Chancellor, llo expressed his thanks for tho complimentary Kntlmonts of the Bur, and reciprocated their reelings of reg.fd. lie said tho judiciary had Kten treated with tuoro forbearance than any itbor department o( tho old State tlovcrnment. Fbo Court of Equity especially, was tho Inst >runch to wither ftad dlo. Tho closo of the 7ourt nt Greenville, was the last term ho expected ever to hold. His Honor mado some Itting remarks upon tho common doom which had overtaken our Stnto Institutions. Tho Judiciary of South Caroliun has over occupied a high and honorable distinction itnong tbnt of tho other States, and Chancellor Carroll has worthily maintained in bis own person, that deserved cniineneo for ability ind tlioso qualities tbnt adorn tho Bench. Organization of tho Militia Dangor Threatened. The recommendation <f Gov. Fix-tt, to rgnnizc the militia, and to have them arm cd, or a chosen baud armed and eqnipped For service, shows badly. There Is no need lor this standing nrmy in tlia State, and l' snrikd out, we look for evil limes. Stnndng armies are tyrants' instruments all over lie world. The consummation of the mill, .in mensnrc, and the granting of power to ;he Governor to suspend the liahens corpus, educes the boasted free Coiixtitution of this itate, (said to be so superior to its predoccs lorsl'.) to an unmitigated despotism. Whnt nonsense to tnik about bil't of rights, pr'vi leges ot the citizens, and nil Ihnt, in the itato Cons'llnllon, if the Legislature enn lulhorize a Governor to suspend the habeas Borpns net when he ple??e# to say there is iteration, and give liim an army to wield ?t. Lite Mine time, whom he will to slay, or im- i prison, ami whom he will to keep alive, j like the royal KBMUoiui>!??:zz.tR of old.? I Why, one would suppose that Ihr army of | the United States, which '.ho Governor o' ( fvery Stale has a right to call upon, through ( the President, would be sufficient to keep ( iown insurrection, violence and wrong?if i it should ever happen in any locality of the i 3'atc, that the civil power faded to do so, , ho ordinary posse comitatis would d > this | Why shoiiM the habeas corpus he sus- | ponded iu this State, even by a Radical i llnte government? Will they not have i -j-~- ..f ih-lrowii chou&iuK. and all per> jajsi of their own faith, to administer tnori aws 1 Why should it he supposed that the | lew created judiciary authorities would j mproperly discharge from arrest any one , n South Carolina f It strikes lis that Gen. | !i?m lies forgotten, in this rccommcndn | ion, that lie is no loneer in the regular 1 irmy. Wo trust, the judicious recommends \ lions of his incsage will he carried out; I but for the sake of lb- State and nil par | lies In It, wc hope his armed militia organi i tnlion. and habeas corpus suspension will lail. The Camden .Tturual is very dec! I d on this head. We give the following extract irom that paper of the 18lh : "While Gov. So-TT announces with he nign complacency, ' that no man in the State shall he snhj?-et to violence because of his political faith or utterances,' and that ' the citizen ia amenable only to the Intr' he adds, '/intend to enforce the laws of Ihe Stnt<' fo? tltt protection of ev*ry person in the State, pmeenhly if J can, forcibly if I imuL' For \\i\* forcible adininist ration of law, true to the despotic instincts of his party an*' the apprenticeship of tyranny from whieli he haa so recently emerged, he urges the pliant Instruments of hi* despotism, to eon fer on him the power to suspend t lie hnbea* corpu* net, at hi* pleasure, and to n'low his civM stsff of prosecuting oflieete. lotrans'er the cases of pcranna charged with crime, to adjacent Districts for trial, win never they can procure (as in any ease they may) an affidavit -Hint justice cannot 1>e obtained against a prisoner in the District where the venue lay. lie urges also the organ inn I ion of a militia and says he lias already the a?* surance that they will l>e armed with the most approved broech-loading weapons, such,in fact, as no militia of any country were aver placed in possession of, in time of p. am.
