The condition of affairs in Colun bin remains unchanged, no action yet having been taken by t lie President towards a solution of the contest fur the Governor-hip. It is thought by many that we will have i iwait the arrival of Vice President Wheeler, and the gentlemen who are with biro to compose a commission for the settlement of the difficulties in South Carolina and Louisana, before the Presi dent will recognize either Hampton or . Chamberlain. ' In Louisiana thi Republicans arc preparing for war, and have enrolled five hundred additional policemen or guards, and both sides seem to think that a con flict is inevitable before long. General Augur's orders, however, are such that they wiil prevent the clash of riiMnAAfoto AAntimiA fO annss nuu iiic ixiuvtmio vvuiiuxv . assure the President that if there is an outbreak it must be begun bv Packard. In reply to a question by Senator Pat terson, as to whether it was true as stated in the newspapers that the troops . * were to be removed immediately from the State-House at Columbia, the President said last Monday that it was untrue. The *tatvs quo would be observed until a final decision should be reached. The citizens of the upper counties are moving against the extortionate freights charged by the railroads that seem to be anything but public conveniences. It is | said that the policy of the Greenville and j Columbia Ilailroad is such as to repel bu > sincss and to keep the already imnovcr" i ished planters ground down by exorbitant; rates. The fanners are hauling their cot* ; ton tt> Greenville C. H., whence it is ship- j ped to Norfolk at cheaper rates than can bfe procured to Charleston, a much nearer sea port, and the chief city of our St te, thus deprived of the benefit of the export of its own State productions. Thus we * 1 nnl 1. destroy oui>eivc< uy iuc uvuuvu j/vu ey of the S. C. R. K. The exorbitant lates of freight charged by the railroad systems throughout the State and that heretofore have had the monopoly of the carrying trade has diverted much of the through freight hitherto passing through Charleston and Sayanuah to Port Royal where the facilities for handling are so much greater and where the expense is consequently much less. Two New York steamers and one from Baltimore weekly come heavily freighted for the interior, for points wherever communication by rail direct with Port lioyal is enjoyed. Daring the winter the railroad has been unable to transport the freight offered, although the weekly ship ments have averaged two hundred and twenty-five car loads. Patterson's plan for a new election sounds well, and unless there was a dodge in it for some underhanded scheme it is the most creditable act we know of in his career. The proper view to take of it, however, is that it is the only hope of the success of men like hiin and as a last resort they propose a plan that they thought might be carried out. Governor Hampton put His foot on it at once and the Prcsideut gave it no encouragement and we shall not hear any more of it. Patterson proposed to have the State put under martial law and then call a new election on the ground that there is no legal JiCgislature. Ten days before the time fixed for holding the election a gen eral registration of both white and colored citizens to be held, and no man who has not registered should be allowed to vote. It was also proposed to appoint three commissioners of election for each election District, one by Chamberlain, one by Hampton, and the third a commissioned officer of the United States army. ?^ ? President Hayes selection of his constitutional advisers, though wise and reasonable, was under the circumstances, extremely audacious. No wonder that the old-liners of the party protested. It was a new departure, calling into the counsels of the Government a powerful element that has scarcely been recognized except to denounce, for the last four years. Quite a number of Republican . 4i -..xxv_: r | Senators, soaie OJ uieui suaermg iivui severe personal disappointment, would have been glad to meet the new President on the very threshold of his term and assert their power. But they found little encouragement. The country sustains the President. It wants peace and leconeiliation. Whoever was President the old issues of the war would have to he considered settled. The senatorial group was forced to yield. The old heads in that body were amused by the exploits of the new member, Mr. Blaine, but they were careful not to follow his example. Hayes drew the first blood and i gained a positive advantage. In less1 than a weelp^the recalcitrant Senators [ asserted that they never meant to oppose j the Administration. All Mr. Hayes has J to do is to stand firm and he President. . Ti e Chronicle and Sentinel, established in 1785, and the Constitutionalist, estab ' lishen in 1709 of Augusta were consoliua- < ted on M-mday. and will appear here- / nfte~ " w:" * !<" name of ChronicV and ! r* . > ? i.n?*' ' i u i . per wai uo .i of Walsh & Wrijht, the proprietors < f the ' Chronicle and Sentinel. 1 '< Trip, a; pointment of'.Mr. Blaine to the 1 a diairnianship of the Committee on Civi. 1 f Service Reform and Retrenchment, and I vit h him such men as Patterson of Sou'h ; v Carolina and Beck of Kentucky, is not i t in indication tliat the Senate, which nake* its own committees, proposes to help President Hayes in carrying out civ i service reform. Mr. Blaine is a man c who believes in using the public patron- tgc for the party to the fullest extent, t probably no man in the country knows t how to use it more effectively, f I is fol- ( lowers have been bound to him by that ' irratitu e which is a lively appreciation 1 of favors to come as well as past favors. ' and he has a hearty and sincere contempt ' for any reform that takes the offices out of ? politics. When we remember, however, ( that Spencer of Alabama was the chair- I man of that committee last year, we are 1 comforted by the assuran c that nothing 1 has been lost, even if nothing has been 1 gained. 1 Another Decision for Hampton. > i Judge Reed in the Circuit Court in 1 Charleston on Tuesday rendered his deci- ' sion in ;lie Fiynn habeas corpus case, releasing Fiynn on the ground that Chamberlain has no lawful authority as Governor. The decision concludes as fol lows: "i am of the opinion, therefore, that Wade Hampton was made Governor in and over the State of South Carolina through the ballot box in accordance with ;he Constitution, atjhe election held on the 7th of November last; that he fqualified, if not following the letter, in the spirit and intent of the Constitution, on the 14th of December last; that he has been since that time and is now the Jaw ful Governor of South Carolina, and should be obe}'ed and respected accordingly. It follows from these views that D. H. Chamberlain was not.Govcrnor on the 3d of January, 1876, the date of the commission^ W. F. Dover as a Triai Justice for the city of Charleston, and that his appointment and commission were without lawful authority and void.'" The News and Courier says of the decision : The effect of the decision is two-fold. It remands to private life every person in this judicial circuit who has been J com 1 n * i missioned, tor any purpose, Dy mr. Chamberlain since December 14, when Governor Hampton was installed ; and it gives undisputed authority to every officer commissioned by Governor Hampton and makes effective and conclusive every other act done by Governor Hampton in this Circuit. With one breath it gives ife and energy to those officers of the Hampton Government who have hitherto been unable to protect the community. In ordinary cases, we kr.ow, the decision of a Circuit Judge is not necessarily final ; but it is final in this instance. There are only two Judges on the Supreme Bench, and one of them, the accomplished Willard, has already rendered a decision similar to*that which Judge Reed has filed. The decisions of the Circuit Judges, therefore, cannot U reversed. ?# * The Gallows in Aiken. The Aiken murderers were hanged in that village on Friday last in the presence of about five thousand people. The men executed were named Nelson Brown, (who was captured by deputy sheriff Sams, on St. Helena) Lucius Thomas, Adam Johnson and John Henry Dennis. The crime for which they were executed was the murder on November 2d last of two quiet Germans, i Hausman and Portman living four miles from Aiken. The proofs against the above named, together with a man ' named Steve Anderson accumulated that they were the right parties, and they fitially made a. full confession, and also confessed burning the Baptist ; Church at Aiken and the murdering a white man named Levin, and other crimes. On January 5tb they were - - - i i . i tried by a iury composed or twelve rcgroes, convicted and sentenced to be hung on the 16th of March. On Thursday Governor Hampton respited Anderson for thirty days. The prisoners, attended by preachers of their own color, all addressel the erowd, confessing the murder and acknowledging the justness of tneir sentence. Johnston insisted upon the son of his owner during slavery standing by him to the last. No efforts were made hy the friends of the condemened men to rescue them, although threats were previously made. Each confessed his share in the murder. The drop fell at twelve o'clock, and the murderers expired almost without a struggle, and the crowd then dispersed. Perfect order prevailed. When the news was received that Andeisonhad been respited by Governor Hampton, one of the colored preachers went to Sheriff Holly and protested against such action. He said that Anderson had repented of his sins and made his peace with Heaven, and that he might fall from Grace during the thirty days allowed by the Governor. This was a new view of the case, but the sheriff couldn't exactly see it in that light. ?^ ? The brother-in-law and cousin wilj have no place in President Hayes's Administration. Among the unsuccessfu i candidates for the United States Marshal 1 ship for the Northern District of Illinois was a Mr. Stillwell of Livingston County. He was admitted to a private audience 1 with the President and presented his ; papers. The President looked them all carefully through and then looking Mr. 1 Stillwell full in the face said. " Your 1 papers are unexceptionable; there is noth-' \ u (.( .v.I which does not seen) ( 1 I : v a o fully qualified for! the position ; but there is one insuper- ! ( *b!e objection to your appointment to' ?"J> l.T- " -1?3L?W ny Fedora! office?'hat is, your wife ? a 1 nvorire cousin of Mrs. Ilayes. " Mr. >tiHwell left the Pr esidential office cor.ineedat last that the fact whhh mat y bought would insure his appointment >a 1 rendered his defeat inevitable. . 1 The contest over the will of Commolore Yanderbilt has at last been settled. Hr. Win. II. Vanderhilt at fiis1 refused o listen to any terms. When the mater got into Court he thoueht it wise to iffect a compromise. Then commenced he haggling about the amount to be uiid. Rather than %t Cornelius le wrought under thedirect influcnee of his brother, his sisters induced him to come ind live with them. Mr. Wm. II. Yanlerbilt then offered to compromise by paying $250,000 to each of the contes:ants. This offer was refused. lie then tendered $100,000 to each. The sisters would not accept, and finally their demand for $500,000 was acceded to. Mr. Wm. II. Yanderbilt, with between eighty \nd ninety millions of dollars, has wisely concluded to pay one million and a half dollars to his own family rather than to lose millions in years of litigation. Anderson's Ferrotype Tent of which the courteous gentleman Mr. F. D. Bell is the managei will only remain in Beaufort one week longer, and all those who have not already received their pictures had better avail themselves at once. Amber Ferrotypes 4 for one dollar; large sized pictures with handsome frame $1.50. * A l.irpe number ot disannointed office seekers meet at Washington every night and sing the favorite hymn of Mr. Lincoln, commencing, "0 why should 'the spirit o' mortal be proud?'' They all agree in giving up the conundrum. "Flow do I get time to read and do fan cy work, and yet take an hour's walk ev ery morning, with such a family as I have?" said Mrs. Brightly to a caller. "I'll tell you. 1 never get nervous, if I can help it; and as I can work my ewing Machine without tiring my muscles or irritating my nerves, why I can stick clo.-e at it wncn, with any other machine, I would have to lie down and rest. So you see, I really do up my sewing in half :he t ine you can, with your hard-running n>: chine, and have lots of leisure time." "Upon my word," answered wan Mr-. Whiting to her rosy cheeked ho?tes*, "I'll make William get mc a Light-Running 'Domestic' right away!" then thej o eulated and parted. I Marine Intelligence. ENTERED. ST. HELENA SOUND..
