THE JOURNAL. JOHN KERSHAW, Editor and Proprietor. CAMDEN, ST^F^RU67l873-1 The Legislature. This complex body has becx industriously engaged in clearing its calenders for the last week, though the influx on new bills has by ne means ceased. As our readers are ajrare the House struck out the enacting clause of the Lien law, so that measure is dead for the present session. The House adjourned from last Friday to Monday. The great amount of money paid out by the State Treasurer has caused much joy among the lucky ones, and money is a great deal easier than it was. Several bills have been introduced of great importance, among which we notice the following: Bill to regulate the flowage in this State, and Bill to authorize the construction of the New York, Norfolk and Charleston Rail Road. No bills of much consequence have been signed by the Governor during the last few days. The question of adjournment is yet unsot, tied, -though it is thought that the Legislature will adjourn some time towards the latter part of the month. Apropos of the Legislature, James Brennan of the Charleston delegation published a card which we re-produce, and also made certain remarks concerning the Charleston News, which justify us in beleiving all that the News says he is. card op mr brenvajt. Columbia, February 1st, 1873. To the Editor o f tike Herald : Sir : The Charleston News, of yesterday. "" ? V % in a leading editorial, devoted to a personal attack upon myself, states that I have sent cc.'ir'n telegn -.is to Charleston during the late State canvass, "which, when printed, will s*ii?w the oo'ored men in and out of the Legislature my real cha ."Ctcr." &c. Mow Mr. Editor, th.itgh your courtesy. I demand of the Charleston Nv\cs to publish anythingand everything which he may have in hi3 posscs3:on concerning myself. He must do this or stand a self-convicted liar. As far as the other part of that editorial is concerned. I shall pay my respects to it at an early day. and also to the bushwacking Cockney Cad who write it. Respectfully, James Brennan. Not Exactly, brother News. Another of our neighbors has "gone for" us in style, as witness the following from the Sumter JVcics, of January 30 : 2*cr Exactly. Brother Journal.? We are surprised to see our coteuiporarv of the Conufrn Journal taking up the cudgel to defend that strolling humbug Leon Javelli, alias Dr. Kirbye, alias a Cincinnati rough, or something of that kind, anil he thinks fit to give us credit for so little manliness and ' independence, as to suppose that our criticisms upon the merits and demerits of a public entertainment depend upon, or can be influenced or niodiued, by the bestowal or refusal of Complimentary Cards of Invitation to Editor, Proprietors, Printers or Office ? ...? j .i nr. v. ioevns, 10 auenu me sainu. ?> v iiaiui iv uo made of little sterner stuff than our neighbor's remarks, would pre-dispose. A paper whose honesty has never been corrupted, or whofcc independence has been compromised or controlled by Federal or Stale patronage, is not likely to barter its honor or good name for cards of invitation to one-horse, bobtailed, pin-hook shows, like that of the Italian gentleman from Ohio. This Yankee ? humbug invited as to attend his performance, and begged us to express our candid sentiments as to its merits, which wo did, in such terms as we thought it merited. We presume ,fi\ Javelli, did not apprise oar Camden friend* of the fact, that after ordering a job of work done at our office, and after it was delivered to him, he tried to sneak off without paying for It, and that when the bill was presented to his foreign highness, he affected great indignation, and pretended to think his Complimentary Tickets voluntarily given, ought to have been a sufficient remuneration for the work. Well, we cannot sit silent under such a castigation, though it is done up in very ?gentlemanly style. We did not take up the cudgel for Dr. Kirbye, alias Leon Javelli, to defend him in aoght which ho d'd deserving censuro, nor did we intend to stroke our neighbor's hack the wrong way, knowing his propensity to show his claws and make the fur fly (metaphorically) whenever that too soothing process is attempted upon him, nor did we desire even in the least degree to insinuate in the remotest manner that the News lacked manline.*s or independence. To tell the truth, we knew that wc wert sufficiently far removed fi*o:n the New* office, to warrant us in indulging our vein of badinage, and so wc ventured upon a small amount of that spicy article, with a view of witnessing the eflferLa of stirriny ui> our friend with a loot; r - O I w pole. Our experiment succeeded admirably, though wo received a longer notice than our playful humor deserved. Now, Mr. Javclli's performance, although not strictly a humbug, was not all he claimed for it, and so we stated in our editorial notice. The looks of "the distinguished foreigner" were sufficient for us, hut wc did not like to judge frftm these aloue. We did not altogether like to trust to externals We did not attend the performance given here, but were told by soveral who did, that the affair went off very well and afforded them considerable amusement. The Xrirg knows us sufficiently to be well aware that we would not defend any humbug, provided the fact was established, and least of all, one of the character we arc discussing. We thought our cotcuiporary would see through our trap at once, but he fell iuto it. This, we are convinced, arose from the editorial spectacles being very dim the day they perused our article. But the beautiful part is yet to be told.? A few days after the community was rid of the presence of Prof. Javclli, we received a piece of horribly written stuff from the said Javelli, containing some sound abuse of our friend, the Sumter News, and as an inducement to publish the same he sent us two dollars in Camden money, which he could not mako use of elsewhere, and had forgotten to exchange before leaving. The communication and the money have been lying in our Diereon hole since their receipt. We ? X KJ would not publish the former and we were therefore, not entitled to the latter, neither can we hear anything of the lamented gentleman's whereabouts. In this dilemma, Brother.News, what shall we do? Between us, don't you think you have put your foot into a dish of hasty pudding. Credit Mobilier and Mr. Schuyler Celfax. What precious revelations are being made in reference to Credit Mobilier! Men of hitherto unimpcachcd integrity and honor, have fallen before the Parthian shafts of Mr. Oakes Ames' testimony before the committee of investigation of this dark subject. Senator Patterson is covered all over with degradation and dishonor, nor is Colfax less so, seemingly. Colfax, under oath, denied that he had received any money from Oakes Ames on account of Credit Mobilicr dividends. Oakes I Ames testifies that on June 20, 1868, he j gave Mr. Colfax a check for $1200, payable to "S. C." ' The books of the First National Bank of Washington were produced, and Mr. Colfax's account examined. The entries showed that on the 21st of June he had the check cashed, and the next day he paid, in money, to that Bank. $1200, and in checks, $768.63, or in all, $1968.63 The circumstantial evidence is, therefore, very strong against Mr. Colfax, and unless he can clear himself he wfll stand convicted of perjury in addition to the dishonor of receiving what he knew to be fraudulently obtained funds. Senator Logan was also to some extent involved in the same speculation, but he managed to clear his skirts in some measure by returning the stock he received as well as the dividends, which in an incredibly short space of time accrued to such an extent that his stock was paid for by them and there was a surplus of over three hundred dollars ! Oh, for a committee in the South Carolina T^nrielafnrA which would unearth some of the villanies perpetrated by those high in authority and fattening on their ill gotten gains! Washington Correspondence. Washington, Feb. 1,1873. CREDIT MOB1LIER. What a spell these words possess: In the minds of the people they signify fraud, corruption and swindling. In the minds of the Congressmen who have been taking " flyers" in stock, tbey are a worse terror than spook or bugaboo to children in the dark, for there is no knowing how soon Mephisto Ames may 'refresh his memory" or another stock investigation be ordered. So demoralized is Congress in consequence of this expose, and the fall from grace of such shining lights of radicalism as Vice President Colfax, who asked for an investigation when he know that the Senate had not the power, and Senator Patterson, whe dares not ask an investigation, and Pig Iron Kelley, who owned stock and did not know it, and Garfield, who wanted Ames to *' let him up," and others, both in and out of Congress, that our law-makers imagine that to be en tirely free from suspicion is to vote no on every question, and for this reason a number of meritorious measures will be passed over this session. A SENSATION. On Thursday, a novelty was presented in the House and the floor and galleries were crowded to overflowing. It was the arraignuientofl,Kentucky Joe"?Jos.B.Stewart? at the bar of the House for contempt in refusing to answer before Wilson's Committee as to his disposition of the 8250.000 given him by the Union Pacific Railroad Company to be used in their interests. According to the phraseology of tho order, the 6ergcant-at arms produced the " body" of ?Stewart in frout of the Speaker's desk, when, after a few preliminaries, the ''body" proceeded in an hour's spread-eagle speech, to defend his right as an attorney to keep secret his clients' business transactions, saying with dramatic earnestness and gesture that he 1.1 1-1?- '" ? Kootiln ,r,. ki> tvnnld 1 WO U 111 UK'lUtl III t? uhcviiv wv.u.v ..w disclose tlio trusts of his clients. The House with but one dissenting voice, decided that ihe 280 pounds and six feet, six inches of * body" then before the House, should 4'inoldcr" under the care of the sergenut-nt-. rins. The room formerly occupied by Col Wooley, of iuipeachment notoriety, has been assigned the burly Kentuckian, where he will be held in durance vile until the end of the session, in case he docs not purge himself of the contempt by answering the questions of the Committee. Although the public care J very little for Mr. Stewart personally, there is considerable fueling manifested, and a great deal of discussion as to the arbitvary power of cither IIouHe to deprive any citi7011 of his liberty without due process of law. There is no knowing how tar this power may one day be exercised, ami it is hoped that Congress will enact a law Wiiich will turn all such cases over to the Courts, and prescribe a punishment for retralcitrant witnesses, and thus relieve itself of a power, the exercise of which is obnoxious to the spirit of our institutions. THE VIRGINIA CENTRAL LINE. The proposition of Virginia and West Virginia to donate to the United States a canal, 107} miles long, reaching from tide water at Richmond to the western base of the l?lue Ridge, which cost $10,000,000, on condition of the government finishing it to the Ohio river, is gaining strength rapidly it Congo s, and no doubt will bo accepted. A canal connecting the James and Ohio rivers will open a great central outlet for the Western trade, and will so reduce the cost of freight that wheat and other grain can be brought from the remotest sections of the West and Northwest at a profit for the farmer, besides giving us the command of the grain markets of England. At present it costs seven bushels of wheat to deliver one bushel in Liverpool from Chicago; by the proposed enterprise it will cost 28J cents a bushel to send wheat from St. Louis to Liverpool. We will thus be enabled to have cheap bi cad-stuffs at home and open a market abroad for our immense crops of grain, which are now often used for fuel. This application being in no sense a job, but a donation to the government to aid in com-. pleting a grand national trade route is presented entirely on its merits, and on them alone will be passed. BEN BUTLER IN A NEW ROLE. That Dr. Benjamin- Franklin Butler is sharp is conceded ; that he is bold is also admit ed; that he should assume the character of a hand shaker across the bloody chasm no one expected, but with a shrewdness, eminently his own, in order to be in advance of a growing sentiment in favor of reconciliation between the North and the South, Ben took a new departure, in his speech on Williard's bill restoring the names of the soldiers of the war of 1812, who had sympathized with the rebelllion, to the pension rolls, in which he dec'ared that these old veterans had earned the right to be wrong once, and that he wished to remember the New Orleans of 1812, and forget the New Orleans of 1861. This was high for Ben Butler, and amid the sensation he caused the bill passed.? What next ? LOUI8IANA AFFAIRS. It is thought thet the Louisiana question la in Q1ir>Vl O Allien +V. r> A il*#* Q?neU IM ow,v" aasa^vwvt wuuiiiuu ifimi; me ucuau/ will hardly decide in favor of the Kellog Government nor will it recognise that of McEnery, bat will declare under that clause of the Constitution which provides that the United States shall guarantee to everv State in this Union a Republican form of Government that no such government exists in Louisiana and provide for an election under Federal auspices. In this event it is most probable the conservatives would carry the State. THE NEXT CABINET. The President has intimated that when the time comes he will appoint a Southern man to a cabinet position. Senator? Pool and Sawyer are being pressed by their friends for the position. The chances are decidedly in favor of Hon. R. W. Huges, of Virginia, formerly editor of the Richmond Enquirer, whose name is presented by the delegation from that State. This selection would probably give more general satisfaction than any other gentleman of Radical inclinings from the South. ANOTHER INVESTIGATION is talked of, this time; it is Goat Islapd. and more fraud in Senatorial circles is promised. BROTHER HARLAN has been defeated for the Senate and intimates that cash, furnished by the Union Pacific Railroad, did it. He now offers a resolution looking to a constitutional amendment providing for the election of Senators by a vote of the people. Harlan has been there and knows how it i? himself, if 1?? will give his oxperience. first how ho was elected and then how he was defeated. The amendment will no doubt be added to the constitution. The suggestion is a good one even if offered bv Brother Harlan through the soreness of defeat. Dr. Tutt's Celebrated Expectorant ?Hov it Acts.?First it detaches from the bronehial or wind tubes the mucus or matter which sometimes adheres to them with the tenacity of glue. Secondly, It mitigates the pain and removes the constriction of the broncial tubes and muscles of the chest. Thirdly, It resists the progress of inflammation and assists the lungs to throw off the irritating matter which accumulates "I attribute the recovery of my child from a violent attack of Croup entirely to the use of Dr. Tutt's Expectorant.
