I The Lmted states uovernmcnt win tike no formal notice of the state of war which now exists, but it has been decided she,inay furnish arms and munitions of war to either belligerent, treating each alike. The Republican members in the Home are so demoralized that they cannot be gotten together in caucus. There is in the history of almost every one food for t investigating committees to feed upon; end all are looking for lightning to strike them. ? There is a movement on foot among the Republicans in the House, headed by Miuort and the Richland delcgal ion, to prepare articles of impcaehmeut against Justice Wright on the chargejof drunken n3ss and debaucheiy. Kellogg still remaius in Washington and will contest the clec tion of Spofford as Senator eleci from Louisiana. The report of the Senate Committee on Elections, as agreed on at the last session, was in his favor and he seems to think he can pass it through the Senate. General Sherman has leen interviewed pnn^oriiinw Kij nninuin nf* tKa Tiii'pft.Rns. *>ian troubles, and he predicts on good grounds, that the result will be the bloodiest battle of modern times, in whieh millions ol lives will be lost and intimates that other powers than Russia and Turkey will be involved. He gives his reasons for all this, and he is one whose deliberate opinions are not to be sneezed at in so tar as military matters are concerned. When it is remembered that Jonathan J. Wright was elected to the Su prcme bench from Beaufort and that he has been looked upon with pride here by his constituent it docs seem ungrate ful in such patriots as Robinson, (Jantt and Miller to vote for a resolution looking to his impeachment. But they did and denounced him too for drinking ex cessively of sarsasparilla. We dont believe if B.ib. Bythcwood should got His Honor down on the sidewalk a^ain as he did once and take his scat on the judicial stomach there would be a man j in town that would remove him. And all this because the Judge decided both way3 ou the Governorship? a sort of a revolver. The correspondent of the News and Courier says the commit ee of ways and means are hard at work on the tax bill It is estimated by the committee that they will have about $311,000 to provide for, and they are determined not to levy a tax exceeding five or five and half mills for State purj oses. This will include the ton per cent, tax already paid in under < the call of the Governor. The intention ! of the committe is not to provide for the ! interest on the public debt, which will I , be referred to a special committee lor ' investigation. The indebtedness of the I counties will not be funded, but will be met, unless strong reasons are presented * in favor of the former course. The hi-1 i will be submitted, it is thought, by Fri. ' day next: 1 During a speech in Congress last ses-! sion the Hon. J. W. Throckmorton of t Texas eavc some figures regarding the } unequal appropriations for tlie North ( aud South that are worth consideration, 'j especially at the present time when the , North is about to leip a harvest from the great European war while the South , f. will likely suffer from a depreciation in j c value of her great staple. The govern- ; nieut has paid out to the present Pacific f Koads in bonds and interest not yet re- v paid by the companies anl never wiil be, the vast sum of ? >1,002.595 Besides!, this, it has given to the Noithorn Suites ' c and corporations in aid of works of inter- j nal improvement $97,025,762, and to t Southern States and corporations j v $6,981,98-. It has donated to Northern t States and Northern corporations 149,- j, 413,543 acres of public lands and to the s Southern corporations but 37,181.383 j d acres. This enormous disproportion in | the benefactions o the government is likely to continue unless the Southern 1 representatives in Congress arc united in ^ a firm determination to vote no more up-, b propriations for the benefit of the Nort ! 11 until Northern representatives show a dis fi position to reciprocate towards u section ^ of tho Union which stands so much in 1 need of help iu rebuilding her waste ? i places. y : Mack is permit! 1 to take J a scat 1 House taovr cu? i.u??.ng in?. , cj 0 4 The Gene/al Assembly is hard at work, j he bills introduced being of'Ja different rature from these of recent years, j Yuiorg the bills were the following : j To repeal an act for a special tax in | Edgefield of 3 mills : to establish a tie-1 part incut of agriculture and mining ; to | puni h bigamy; to reduce the fees of trial justices; to abolish the office of county treasurer and devolve the duties ; of that office on the sheriff; to encourage , fish culture; to* abolish the office of ' stenographer; to repeal the kn-klux tax; to reduce the'salaries of school eoniniissiomr ; to sell the property of the University ot South Carolina and establish twu Universities, one for the whites and one for the colored; to provide for the registration of voters; to repeal the lit n law. The following bills were introduced : in the Senate .and received their first j reading; Bv Gary, to regulate rate of in terest on all contract.fill this State; Gaillard, to charter the Hampton Phosphate Company, <&c.. Green, to amend an aet entitled an act to incorporate the Port Royal Docks Warehousing, Transporta" j tion and Banking Company, and the charter of the Port Itoyal Liverpool Real j Es'ate and Improvement Company I also a bill to incorporate the Port Roy-1 " i fI rUxr Jn ; ai narour uuui|wn vnj nu | proveuient and General Shipping*Cum j pany, to be in working opcratiou within six months. On Friday bills were introduced in the Senate to abolish the office of jury com. misioncr; to reduce the pay of County C'.mmissioners and their clerk's and to charter the Spartanburg and Rutherford railroad. ? 4R> The committee to whom were refer; ed the case of the Mackcy members reported last Thursday in favor of seating some of them, among the number being the j Beaufort d?.legation. The News and j Courier says it was one of the richest scenes ever witnessed within the legislative hails. The News gives the fu low ing account of how the anima's from Beaufort ate their humble pie : The Rebels, as they arc fitly termed, apt eared to feel it all over, and stood before the Speaker's desk like a parcel of disgraced school boys about to be lectured. To those who had seen those identical men last winter insolent, over boating and loudmouthed, the very men who had with similar resolutions poured forth day and night their ibul abuse upon the heads of the legal rcpicsontatives of the State, the scene was immense, and one that never will be forgotten. It is almost incredible that the crying apologists who appeared craving pardou. are the same blatant partisans who, inJDie mber last, threatened the life of the Republic Beaufort was first called for andGantt, Robinson, Read and Miller came forward, in a sort of wriggling gait, with their j credentials in their hands. The Speak- j or said : '"You have heard the resolu i tions adopted by the House. What i have you to say for yourse'ves ?" Miller, who in the flush days of- Radicalism was inclined to be very chatty, stepped to the front and in a very plaintive whisper, in marked contrast with his usual style of haranguing : 4 What have done I believe to be right, but I am nc rfeetly willing to recognize you as ihe legal Speaker, and this as the legal House of Representatives." A number O; voices cried out 'louder," and Mr Sheppardsaid: "There is a condition precedent to Mr. Miller's admission, and hat is that he shall purge himself of the ' ? ? f i i i contempt or wmen nc acKnowieages himself iriiiltv, and I do not recognize in his remarks an expression of regret or penitence for his palpable violation of law." Miller in a half frightened tone: "I accept the proposition as laid down in the resolutions, and consider this deception as purging my contempt." A voice from the Democratic side insisted that there should be an admission of wrong, and a request for pardon. Miller, finding that he bad to swallow the dose, blurted out that he had done wrong, and craved pardon for what he had done. This was satisfactory, and the House agreed o admit him. Miller then said that he would state, on behalf of his colleagues, that they made the same apologies as himself. A ' dozen voices cried out.that they wanted j to hear ?ah man speak for himself.: (Jantt caunj next, and, seeing the fate of! Miller, was decidedly more docile. Fie i said: 4*I accept the propositions as laid down in the resolutions, and I am willing ; to stand by tbcm and apologize to the j House for my unlawful conduct.1' Heed j came next and said, and that he knew j that be had erred, and asked pardon for what he had done. Robinson followed, j vul said he craved the pardon of the ; House for having erred, and accepted the ! propositions laid down in the resolut ons. | rhese four Mackeyites, who, it will be remembered, all voted for the expulsion j >f the legal members 'ast winter, then I presented their credentials to the clerk, I ind were sworn in by the Speaker.

Governor Hampton sent his first nussage to the legislature last Thursday. The first part of the messrgc is devoted to the financial condition of the State and suggestions as to a reduction of tlie 1 expenditures. We make the following extracts from the latter part as our space will not admit of its publication entire : " The first as it is the most important subject to which yoifr attention is invited 1 is that of the financial condition of the State. It is needless for me to say that this condition is deplorable; for it is: shown by an empty treasury and a ruined credit, by stagnation in commercial circles and depression in agricultural en-, terpriscs, by public andjpersonal poverty as widespread as lamentable. All efforts , to bring about a better state of affairs will prove unavailing until the finances of the State are put in a healthy condition and the credit of the State established on the Sound and honorable footing they once occupied; but in the mean time, there is an imperative necessity that the immediate needs of the State j should be provided for, and in doing this the burden of taxation should be made as light as possible, for the resources of our people are well-nigh exhausted, and the season of the year at which the taxes will be called for is most unfortunate. The late political struggle has been protracted until the proceeds of the past year's crop have been exhausted, and Oi^n li; nnt CnffirMrfMltlv Aflvnn II1U piWSCUV HVJ' ?o nun ....... WW ced to enable the farmer to realize anything upon it. Every arailable dollar of cash, or of credit, in the control of the farmer is already applied to the growing crop, and the levy of a tax payable at an early' lay would seriously embarrass not only the agricultural, but every other interest of the State. The money is not in the country. It could only be raised from loans to the farmers by bankers or merchants, and it is questionable if it could be raised even in this way. It is, therefore, incumbent upon you, while re hieing the tax to its miuiimum, to arrange for its collection at such times, I and in such manner, as will lighten the burdens of the people as much as possible. A portiou of the tax absolutely necessary could be called for in June, and the residue, which should be the larger, portion, in October, when the proceeds, ofapartat least, of the crop will be available for the payment of taxes. By the resolutions of the House of Representatives, adopted at the last session, I was authorized to call for a contribution not exceeding twenty-five per cent, of the amount of the taxes levied last year. Under this authority a call for a voluntary contribution of one-tent!' of the amount of the last tax was ismed, and vf!ls responded to with an alacrity and a patriotic zeal most honorable t?? ourpeiple. The net receipts from eon tribution and from office fees amounted to $135,859.48, and the disbursements, as will appear by the books of Gen. Ha good's office, on account of the eduen tional, penal and charitable institution of the State, and for the legislative, executive an 1 judicial departments of the go e nuient siinouut t'? $ "0,061.01) Jeav iag a cash balance on ban i of $-39. by the report of the late tieasurer. dated October ,11, 1870, there were ii the treas try at tha' time $J5S,020.37. but what ponim of this amount is now on hand I aui not aware. The penal, charitable and educational ins itutions of the .State demand, and doubtless will receive, your careful consideration and your fostering care. Every dictate of enlightened humanity, every precept of sound policy, require that these institutions be well regulated, properly supported and ably managed. But this should be done with a strict regard to economy. They should be made sclf-suppoi ting, as far as possible, and I trust that some system may be devis d ly the legislature b/ wl i h, while public the public institutions of the State on a secure basis, will relieve the people of a large portion of the heavy expense their nminteance now demands. With proper legislation, the labor of the convicts in the Pcniten- i tiary could be made profitable, and I ask your attention to this subject. Of the condition of the University I am unable to speak advisedly as no cornnunication from the authoiities of that institution, and no call for assistance, has been received by myself until within the last few days when the chairman of the faculty handed me bis report, which I herewith transmit. While I fully recogni/.e t ie importance of keeping up this i istitution, I am forced to the conclusion that the benefits it lestows, under the present system, are not commensurate with the expense it entails. To bring it up to a proper standard, it must undergo a complete reorganization, and I earnestly ask your attention to this subject as of vital consequence. Such action can be taken at present as may be necessary to meet the immediate wants of the University, and subsequent legislation can, after mature deliberation, place the institution 011 the high ground it once occupied. Akin to this subject is that offrce schools. I earnestly ask that you will use everj' effort to establish such a svs- : tern as will place the means of education within the reach of all classes in the | ^tate. The present system as it has been administered is mere mockery, un- I dcr which the children have been impcr- j fectly taught, the teachers have been ! swindled out of their pay, and the money of the people has been squandered. There have been honorable exceptions to this rule but they arc rare. 1 have now before me a 1 'teachers' pay certificate"' to which the board of school trustees; consisting of three mem- 1 bers, have each affixed his cross mark " as a signature. As this paper is a bti ik- , ing illustration of the new system of pub lie education inaugurated in the State, and is besides, a literary cariosity wdl worth preserving, it is transmitted for inspection. While such a disgraceiul condition of thinirs is allowed to exist, we | shall hope in vain to sec the work of education prosper. The time may be too ' limited at this session to enable you to perfect a system which will meet the requirements of our whole people: but' such legislation can be had as will se cure to the teachers fair compensation tor services already rendered, and will carry on public instruction until the next regular session.. We arc bound 1 alike by ever}' consideration of true I (statesmanship and of good faith to keep ; up in the State such a system of free schools as will place within the reach j of every child, the poorest as well as ; the richest, black as well as white, j the means of acquiring an honest and honorable education, and to this end I shall most cordially second any efforts . n .1 T 1 _ x on the part or the jjegisiature. I shall look with confident hope to j your aid, in carrying out tliQ reforms j ' and fulfilling the pledges to which wc arc solemnly committed. A great work the greatest to which a patriotic people can be called, is before us, and a heavy responsibility rests upon us. We have to cieate anew a State which can of right demand and take the proud and houorable position she once held in the great sisterhood of this great Republic. Wc have to restore her credit, to bring back her good name, to develop her boundless resources, to heal up her wounds, to secure equal and exact justice to all her children, to establis-h and maintain the supraniecy of law, to diffuse the blessings of education, and to strive to bind all classes of both races in the bends of peace, fraternity and piety. I trust that we shall all devote ourselves to the attainment of those high aims, and pray that God may, in flis wisdom and His mercy, speedily crown our efforts with success.
