The Supreme C >art has decided in rV Willimsn and 0~ ten-lord ea e that th election held on the Tth of November Bounty officers was g?*>u an 1 \'a?id. Th:s decision gives 0>te?ido?ff 'he c tin' clerkship ot Charleston, and Macon R Allen the probate judgeship if the same county, ousting Messrs. Wii-iman and Buiet. Jr.dge Caipcnter rendered a dee*-"on "t the injunction case acai;i-<t Chamberlain and Cardozo and the Banks which :i'ithe depositories of the Sta'e fan.In. Ti: decree continue< the -linnet ion restrain iag the Banks from paying out the Sta'e funds on checks signed ty Chamhcriai: ana Cardoso, and restraining Cardozo, from signing any checks as Treasurer. The order reads, "until a final decree is made." and requires the complainants to file & proper bond with the Clerk <>.' Court. ? Gen. Hampton made a clean sweep o{ the County Treasurers and auditors last Saturday, ever}- one in the State being not.Sed of his removal from office, but no mention was made of their sucees. ors. It is not supposed that these ofacers will take any notice of their suspension, bu the action of Gon. Hampton mal es the political situation more complicated r.nd will be a great help to the collectors of the special tax. II we had a Supreme Court that would decide the question o( the Governorship without awaiting the Presi dential i>s?.e oar planters would not be vainly seeking assitar.ee to put iu thsir crops, and fewer laborers would be found on the verge of starvation ready to rob and plunder those Whose cribs and smokehouses are not yet empty. The rice planters from the Coinhahee to the Savannah river arc planting less than formerly, some only enough to supply seel for another year. A repetition of the note of last year is leered, by which one planter is said to have lost &10.000, tin leas there is a change in the administration of the State, and better seen; by assured of a faithful and Srm execution of the law* la the meantime tiie laborer seems to be the greats t sufferer and his trouble has but just begun. A Floridi paper alludes to the co nplaints of the shipment of unripe fruit lo the Northern ma.het. The fruit-growers also have oorup-ained bitterly of their commLnlon merchants, whose accouut alas too oiden leave a very small bak ee of cash oa hand to the producer. I: it ??il.iT */\ t?i?rih.S 1% > 1A *.^1 UIUu.MU W jyUU.OIl tii'iV,,cl? proceedings, such petty frauds. About the only method is td take a tray patron age from any at a J all persons who are gm !ty of each practices, and to let them be publUhad to the world as persons unfit to be trusted. Fruit-growiqg is an industry of ?ueh vital importance to the prosperity of Florida and South Carolina that the people should not pern.it that greed of gain which tempts dishonesty to ever bring gains to those who will ?omraijt dishonorable acts, whether they be producers or handlers of products. v ^ There is no telling where the conflict of authority is to eod, even the courts being pn uncertain ground. V.'hen the Courts of General Sessions met in Ch 11lestoa oa Monday, the graud Jury was called up by the clerk of court and were about about to be sworn in when B. C. Prasalej, Esq. rose and said that the gentlemen chosen by the Court tofdravr up ir.dictmeats against the County officers and to prosecuta the cases on behalf of the State, had prepared their in lictmcut and were ready to go into the prosecution but that they objected to the jury drawn to serve for this term of the Court; that there were two parties claiming to be Jury Commissioners, both holding the commissions. That the quest e i war - now before the Supreme Court of the I Twl.i-.K i* .ill,? il.WM.'l.i ? ? i f' iv,J | f*uiv?i n\ uiu vaw.w .V .* w which was tho loyal jury Comr.j.-.-ioner, gad that it would be disiespeot to tfca: flourt to go on now before that uia'.ie: was decided ; and that if divided adversely, po as tc constitute the jury ejai'ni.ssiou who bad assisted in the diawi;:;; of! the jury, illegal, every ease that cm me no before the Court and every verdict would be set twide. Judge Reed said thai It was his inton* tioa to try only those cases in vthich the prisoners were in jail, so as to :u ;!;e -? clean sweep of that institution hut ibat parties out on bail would he be. J Kick I nntil the matter wa- decided by the Su j Mreme Court. That on this account uj res sorry that the question had Wn raised, ds he would be ibroed to adjourn the court ever until next Xne>i.iy the i3th instant, at vrhicdi timo the matter bow pendin* before . the Supreme Court would be settled. The court was then adjourned over an* the jury dismissed. <?? j Con. A. II.

Sir. O'Oonor, cider r.a ailusion to the im; o 'ance of this case, the most in porta .it over tried in the Uaiiod Stare , said that the eounc-ol Ibr the Tildeu Electorsheld directly ll:? opposite* view to that conlcn led for by Republican counsel, an 1 that the C >mmi- .on had the right to make a fall inquiry into the facts of the Florida el ctiott. The opposing council held die Republican Electors met ia ae cordaace v. iih 'he hvr and cast their vote , and that it is u.t in the power of any earth y tribunal to invalidate their action. In this connection he said that the propo -itioa that the power to couu^ the votes is vested io the president or the Senate 3 paY-bly absurd, j-ince he is prciludi 1 by the C? nsthution from counting inch votes, rlo has r.o ri-jht to open the eertiScates until the tiro howes meet in joint region.

The narrow flooring is laid in sections twenty feet iu length. Tlie man carrying the .liter end of the section to be laid walks backward on a single rope until the inner end joins that already laid when he stoops down, places it in position, and -tens from tho rops on to the walk. This at the height of 270 feet, is said to be ihe most dangerous part of the great work iu building the bridge. Tho careful and cool headed manner in which this perilous work is performed relieves the spectator from any over anxiety as to the fate of the v/orkiuen. Piuehback, in a letter to a friend in Indianapolis.in explanation of his recent action, says: '"Knowing that the present pretended Packard government is a monstrous iniquity and its suoceos wo :!u entail still further debauchery and demoralization upon the race, I resolved to destroy it if possible.

I # I The selection of Port Royal as a cava! station by the United States government, and the protection of the harbor by an impassable chain of forts, would be all that is needed, iu addition to its noble advantages of deep water, and suj orb climate, to make it in good time a city. Railroads built, or projected, and pa,tiaily built, across the mouuta'ns to the Northwestern cities, will fad their appropriate termini at C'harlestcm and Port Royal. The I exes and Pacific, when completed, m we cannot doubt it will be, will connect the Pacific aud Atlantic coasts by a line which can be operated ail the year round, and passing through the finest countries on the continent. South ( Carolina will be the meeting place of the East and West, her harbora crowded with the sails of all nations, and her cities the receptacles and the centres of a I rich and abounding traffic. Port Royal may yet justify the came conferred on it ' by Ribault, in 1562, " because of the sairnesse and largenesse thereof.

C., hacked bv a stroiu* following, has cast his eyes toward Port Roval, and invested largely in lauds 7 r fronting the water west of Broad River. Col. Johnson thinks the present terminus of the railroad a great mistake. The true harbor of Port Royal is where Couinusdore Porter, in his report to the Con t Purvey, located it. It is proved to bui d a branch road from Yemaaseo to this proper harbor. In conjunction with the Northwestern lines now concentrating or about to concentrate at Knoxvilie, slid the assurance of a Texas Pacific roai, Port Royal bids fair to become a great place for rhe iniporta:ion pf goods and the exodus of the staples of the couat-y.?A ujusta Constitutional at.
