Address all communications to THE TRIBUNE RKACKORT. B.C. A telegram from Colvmbia last evening pays that Corbin was elected United States Senator. Judge Bond has decided that the Supreme Court had no jurisdiction in the case of the returning board and haa diacliaiged the prisoners. The Legislature which inaugurated Chamberlain is being urged on to declare the election of circuit Judges Inst winter ?s illegal. It was threatened all through the late campaign that Cnoke and Mackcy would he thrown overboard on the meeting of the Assembly and now they propose to carry out the programme, and while they are about to it impeach the Supremo Court Judges. If there is such a thing as punishing the deserters it will be effectually done and in the shortest possible time. Ilut then the boot may !>c on theothcr leg. How then ? We are at present inclined to believe that a compromise of some sort will t>e the result of the visit aud investigations of the Congressional committee now in Columbia. There arc men we know upon that committee who will regard duty to country'as higher than duty to party, and we liave reason to expect that if frauds were perpetrated in Edgefield, Laurens, Beaulort or Charleston counties they will be unearthed and brought to light. We hall anxiously await the expression of their opinion upon the number of members necessary to form a quorum of the House of Representatives, and public vpiuiuu itt. me iiiirui win doc inn ro De mored by the report of Judge Abbott of Massachusetts and the other able Congressmen who hare the matter in charge. 7IIE BROOKLYN FIRE. The story of the burning of the Brooklyn Theatre, is the most horrible narra; tire chronicled for many a year. In the number who met sudden death in its most terrible form, the disaster stands unparalled in this country. The burning of the Richmond Theatre in 1811, is historic, but not more than seventy lives were lost at that lime. The swift destruction that swept hundreds into eternity on the night of the fifth instant, is comparable to nothing in the most startling page of our history. No battle-field has seen such instantaneous extinction of life; no vessel has foundered with such utter absence of all warning. The va.ue an accuracy of the earlier accounts shows how far from comprehending the terrible realitv wera those who stood tonkin*? on and the ground of the horror, as the truth became revealed, added to the shock which this great calamity has produced throughout the country. At 11,15 o'clock an alarm of fire was sounded to the audience. The play was hardly over. The curtain had been rung up for the last act of ,4The i wo Orphans." A forked flame was seen creeping along > the left-hand corner of the scenery. This I was followed by a noise ot shifting scenery, and a few seconds later the audience observed confusion among the actors on the stage. Fire on the upper portion of the left hand fly spread rapidly, nnd the alarm became general. A cry of "Fire" thrilled the audience, and every man, woman and child in the house rose to their feet. An effort was made by the actors to calm the excited audience. Some of the auditors resumed their seats but only for a few seconds. The flames spread rapidly and the members of the eonipany were forced to retreat. The excitement of the audience was manifested in a stampede, and a rush was made for the door. Women shrieked, struggled and fainted. ilea pluaged ia main terror over the seats and fought their way to the door like wild beasts. Efforts were made to induce the terrified mob to retire in good order, but all to little purpose. In two minutes the stage was one mass of flsmes. A moment sufficed to singe the hair, seorrh clothing i<nd burn the flesh so intense wss the heat. The ways of escape became completely blocked. Men and women were trampled upon, and the draught af air through the theatre caused the whole edifice to become s fiery furDace. The rush flrom tho top gallery, which was packed, occasioned most if not nearly all the trouble. The stairs gsrc way and then the gallt-ry itself and carried rrery thing before it to the cellar be* n II r , .. ? - - - 0 iiwkii. ouuu-ioi victims were louna tie 5 i?xt morning in heaps within a dozen ) feet of the door, the majority baring C beeu b timed beyond recognition. The remains of upward of two hundred ^ aaf fifty rictims of this terrible catastro1 pbs Hare been recovered from the rains. J Lml Wednesday the electoral rotes for Pr.eiient end Vice President were csst |*nd Mr. Tilden got the missing vote needed from Oregon where the Governor gave a certificate to a Democrat, ns one of the Republican elector* was ineligible as he held a position uuder the Government This action caused great excitement all over the country and Governor Qrovcr<isdenounced in unmeasured terms by the Republicans for what they call his 1 illegal action. If anything like a fair 1 return had been made in Louisiana or Florida Oregon would quite likely have voted lor H >yes, but when it is known j ibat those two states gave majorities for I Tilden and were counted out by Republi | cans the action of Governor Grover will ' seem to most pocplc as an act of justice. The New York Tribune, which strongly favors Hayes, says that the election in Louisiana was as quiet and peaceable as in any state in the union, and the only intimidation shown occurred weeks before the election. The intention was to count Tilden out without regard to his right to the vote and so'the board threw out 13,000 Democratic votes, selecting for the purpose only those precincts where the Democratic vote was largest; this being sufficient evidence in their minds that the Republicans were intimidated. Judce Camenter iasueil ?n ininnrtmn Friday, ou complaint of several tax payers, against the banks in Columbia from paying out State money on deposit on ibe orders of Mr. Cardoza. It is claimed that Mr. Cardozo'a term of office expired on the 8d instant and that his bond* are not responsible now for bis acta. It is further held that any bond he may ffleon the basis of Chamberlain's inauguration wnuld net be a lawful bond. This is a very important step and will result in a weakening of the Kepubltcan lines it the the injunction should be sustained, as the want of money in Columbia is now sorely felt and without it tlte ambition of many lawmakers would be ruined. It is snid that in the Cabinet session on South Carolina affairs last week Secretaries Cameron and Chandler were sironglv in fRvor of sending all the troops in Washington to Columbia and dispersing the Hampton Legislature. Mr. Fish and Attorney-Genera! Taft opposed this, and the President yielded to them on Mr. Fish's threat to resign if the violent counsel of the other two was adopted. AFFAIRS LV COLUMBIA. The Supreme Court on Wednesday last unanimously declared that Wal- j lace is the constitutionally elected ! speaker of a constitutional body and j was entitled to the returns for Governor ; aad Lieutenant Governor. The house met with seventy members! prtaenr, ami Mr. JJridges of Now berry appeared and took the oath making sixty three ir.ctnbei s who ho <! certificates from tlie returning board. To in t'anii'ton made a sp> cell in which he advocated taking po session of the !{? nr. sentutive Hall in tlie blatc House. If the others would follow he wuld march tn and take the seats. A coiiiiniitic was appointed to examine the ciedentiuls ot the members fiom Edgefl !d and Lauren-. Mackoy's House was called to ??rdt r with but fifty eight members present but a quorum was announced and tlic first business was to swear in another defeated candidate. A committee was appointed to see what relief could bt given to the families who had suffered from the Huuiburg and Ellenton troubles. In the Senate a resolution was adopted that an election be held on Tuesday the 12th inst for a United States Senator in place | of T. J. Robertson. In the United States Circuit Court. Judge Bond and Bryan, it was decided that the charges against the Ellcnton prisoners would have to go before the grand jury, and could not come up on information. This puts off the Ellunton trials to the next term. On Thursday the farce of inaugurating Chamberlain was gone through with and he was declared Governor for two years longer. There were but fifty-one members present in Mackey's house but a quorum was declared present. Seventeen senators attended the ceremony and a probate judge named Boone administered the oath. Mr. Chamberlain is represented as having bom greatly agitated and no doubt was fully satisfied that the step' he was taking would ouly prolong the excitement but not delay his ultimate defeat for the coveted chair. In the legal house a resolution was adopted that a committee be uppomtcd to wait on Gen. Ruger nnd inform him that a majority of the members of the legislature, recognized by the Supreme Ctftirt, were assembled and request of | him the removal of the soldiers from the State nnnw *n<l in it ...... cle wm io the way of the occupation of the Hail of Representatives. Tom Hamilton was appointed on this committee. A resolution was also .d opted to go into an election for U. S. Senator on Tuesday. The committee on the Edgefield and Lanrens members reported favorably on (heir admission and they were sworn in. In the Senate on Friday a commits e was appointed on the Hamburg and Ellenton affairs. A resolution to inquire into the cause of the occupation of the State House by the soldiers was laid over. An attempt waa made to admit Qary ns Senator from Edgefield bat was not successful. Cochran proposed that a committee l>e appointed to inquire which of j the two Representative bodies was th> I legal one. A bill relative to the inatgur ation of Governor was taken up. Nasi | said that he thought it superfluous to pu it to a vots as it would he a confession I that the inauguration was illegal. Tin bill was finally postponed. It was resol ed to go into the election of a U. S. Senator on the 13th. In tha House Sheppard introduced a resolution that the committee on Judiciary be instructed to report what steps should be taken to punish D. II. Chamberlain for his treasonable action in bring ing war against the State by filling the State Capitol with armed mea, and that the committee be empowered to employ counsel. Simpson Introduced a resolution reo liest in a tlip mmmitli<? ..!? /? -i r> "" " ; lions to report to the house the number of Tncancics existing with a view of ordering special elections to fill the same. A petition from theytizi-ns of Darlington was read requesting the Speaker to issue writs of election for the purpose of filling vacancies in the house from that county. Notice was given of a lull to abolish the office of countv auditor and devolve the duties of that office on the treasurer. In the Mnckcv House a resolution was offered and adopted to appoint a com mitiee to inquire into the acts of the Supreme Court and report whether they were guilty of any act that rendered them liable to impeachment, and whether any member of tfeo Court had accepted a disqualifying offer while on the bench. A resolution was adopted that if the members who had received certificates from the secretary of State, and also the members who had left the House to join the Wallace House did not return in thiee days that their seats should be declared vacant and the Speaker should issue writs for a special election to fill such vacancies. A committee was appointed to wait on the Congressional committee. In the Senate011 Saturday a resolution was introduced to appoint, a committee to ascertain why the State House was occupied by armed men, and why it was that Senators and others were obliged to show passes in order to get into the building, but the resolution was lost by a vote of 12 to 14. A committee was appointed to wait on the Congressional committee but as they were to act in concert wit h a committee from the Muck ey House the Democrats declined lo serve on it. In the Wallace House, the standing commit tees were appointed for the session. A resolution was adopted to appoint a commit tee of fiva to prepare business for i ho House and suggest such action as they nii^ht deem necessary. The following letter was received from Geo. ltuper in answer to the questions submitted to him by the special committee of the House Columbia, 8. C., Decembers, 1870. Hon. F. A. Conner; ami other Oentlemen oj the Committee: t rave !h I onor to say 111 rep y to your lnqnin sl-nsidupon the resolution of which you handed mc a c<>py on yesterday, that the United States troops now in the Statehonse were placed there by my order for the purpose of cxccu'ing such orders as might be given. And in this connection 1 would sny with reference to inquiries numbered 6 and 7, that if your oody should appear at the Statehouse for the purpose of entering the liali of the House of Representative*, and should be refused admission by those having charge ot the doors, and such pers<His should apply to the officer in command of the troops at the Siali house for assistance necessary to prevent youi entrance, the present orders to the officer would require him to render such assis| t&nce. I am, gentlemen, very respectfully, your obedient servant, Tnos. H. Rugeh. Cul. and Brevet Brigadier-General. The committee nn elections made a report declaring all the seats in tlie House to be vacant that ware represented by members in the Mackcy House. In the Mackey House, the Resolution to declare the seats of the Democrats and Republicans sworn in by the constitutional Speaker vacant, came up for considetation. Reed, Jefferson, Minort and Andrews made some attempts to postpone the matter, but their efforts were defeated principally by Keith. The resolution, after being amended so as to give the Democrats five and the Republicans three days grace, was passed, No other business of importance wns done. On Monday in the House a letter wni read from the Congressional Commiltet in which it declined to recognize eithei House as legal at present. Notice was given of a registration bill. A message I was sent to the Senate informing thai - 0 body that the House was ready to pro-' ceed to business but the clerk was refns ed admission to the Senate. Pay certifl j cat es for $100 each were issued to tlx : members and the city banks cashed them In tba Mackey House the committei ' appointed to investigate the Supremr Court reported that as Chief Justice Mos es had accepted the position of Profcssoi in the University he had become disquali di d as Chief Justice, and it was resolvec j ' that his scat was vacant and that a Chief Justice should be ballot ted for 01 Friday next. In the Senate a resolution was introduced declaring the judgeships vacant that were filled last year as the the voting was viva voce and not by ballot. One thousand copies ofChnmherlain'saddreu was ordered to be printed. The Republicans yesterday elected Coibin U. S. Senator. e THK SENATORSHIP. In selecting a successor to Senator 8 Robertson we can imagine no course so wise and acceptable to both parties in this State as the election of Hon. John J. Malier. 6 Having under Republican auspices been chosen as the Judge of the seqond circuit +t would a >t be unreasonable to ask the support of that party in placing ^ him in the U. S. Senate, and his honora- ^ ble career and conservative disposition ^ should certatnly recommend him to the Democrats. c A FLYER. t, What a friend would call a "flyer"' was senttoUt<>n Saturday last by the News and Courier in the shapo of an interview of ro its correspondent with Qen. Hampton on the Senatorial question. A great many P( of Gen. Hampton's friends have feared that some kind of a compromise would fo be effected whereby Chamberlain should ^ be either fecognir.ed as Governor and ? Hampton sent t?? the United States Senate jP or vi*i verta, and such paragraphs as that 1 in the News gives them reason to fear t hat these reports are not entirely irrouad I cm and that (he leaders will yet surrender a part of the victory which seems within their grasp. It hardly seems pot- 1 sible, however, after the proceedings in uk Columbia during the past two weeks that any such compromise could be made ^ between the two parties and every one feels that it would b? much better to gain all or lose all But when Oen. Ilainp ton in anawer to the question of the reporter, as ta bis preference between that of Senator and Governor, rep'ied "I am not tba one to determine this," it does look as though ha had advisees who had lietter give place to pothers or that QE the prospect of the Democracy was not e so bl ight as the people are led to believe. Hampton has said repeatedly "I will be Governor." Let him stick to it Every day, as the people can ace, sub- * stantial progress is made. The Supreme I *? Court has decided that the Mackey House M is an unlawful body, and that theWal- ? Ince House is the Constitutional House of Representatives. This makes it a matter of supreme indifference whether the Mackey body admits or excludes so called members, installs Governors or elects nt Senators. The net? of that body are void from the beginning, and no subsequent j act can cure the radical defects of its j organization. In their policy during the canvas*, and j j since the election, the South Carolina, an Democracy are sustained by the approval jg of the people of the country. Public opinion is with tn, as are the Courts. p. This is all we nee.l Time and Right will pr >ve more than a match for our enemies. Of course we wish that the _ march of events could be hastened, but we have supreme confidence in the wisdom ol Governor Hampton, and the pco- si pic may rest continent that what he ad vises is the right thing to d>?.?News and Courier. [ lie governors of some of the Western N Stu'es are to bold a convention to declure war on the grasshoppers, und devise ways and means for extermination.
