TIRE LEGISLATURE. This session ol the General As sombly, of South Carolina, prom ises to bo cxcoodii)gly lively and interesting. . A volumo of bills came over from last session and bills innumerable, ato threatened to be introduced at this sittitig of the so!ons. It is safo to predict that there will be business enough to consume the forty days, the time allotted by the constitution to the legislative dopartmont for tho dis Position of its matters. Last week the legisluLive chambors wore put, in elegant orior for the oqcupat)cy of the membors aId their coming was the chief topic of conversation. Sevonal ienibers had already ar. rived and were busy on committee work, l-ut nothing definito could bho obtained from thm.111 as to thlt, probaIle fato of sovoral proposed bilbs. R. is much easior to intro duce a bill than to mako a law, se mnIny get, killed inl the Sonato. The reports ot the various in4ti stutions of the, State are abot . ready for the inspwetionl and action of the legislatutire a1d after a careful study of thei, someiflr0 very CrI uide ideas, horotofore maintaintml, will be Ibalidoe (d. 1d is cu istom1ary for iewsipapers to advise ile l gisla ture and they have followed it on this oCcas iol, hiovever, it is to be hoped for the good of the State that all this a(lvico will 1o consider ed before it is swallowed. Thi is is the second si t ing of tho House and no radicalI legislation will iardly occuri, as the Inembers must soon i go beforo their constitutiency and give an cc'nilt of their stowaurd ship. Thelr most of thorm have al ready made a favorablei improssiolI throughout tli Slatj and it is not, I likely Ihat they will do anyijhing rash at this tiino.
