THE CITY OF SUMMER. Some interest aaa been aroused amoo| oar suburban residents and tax-payer by thc move in tie legislature te exten? oar town limita and make Stinter a city, and a petition was prepared in opposi? tion to the measure, and carried over tc Colombia on yesterday. We are not informed as te fae'proba? ble result of this protest, but we are inclined to the opinion that the most ol our **town" ?citisens are willing to di . vide the honors and luxuries of a "city" life with their coan try neighbors, and that aa the opposition from the oat ??er? will in a measnre be neutralised by the large accession of "available ter? ritory developed* by the Turkey Creek Canal, the *?eity*r of Sumter is almost a fixed met. A people who have a canal completed, water-works assured, and electric lights and street railway promised, should nj? object te being incorported into- a city. Sumter bas the reputation of being on a "boom," H and to increase our population to about 4,000 will go a great ways towards establishing the boom. Why not be a City? The following is ftoai the Netcs"?nd Courier's Columbia- letter t- ? The town of Sumter ie to be ' raised to the dignity of a oity, and deservedly so. t A bill to recharter the town has already been reported, and is weil np on the Calender. _%e corporate limits of the new city include ail toe area em '. -braced ia a circle from Courthouse Sonare with a radia? of* one mik. The city council is to consist of a mayor and four aldermen, to be elected on the second Tuesday in April, T$8$, to hold office for two years The mayor's sal? ary is fixed a $500*per annum. The usual corporate powers are granted, such as the creaticeof a boardLof -health, a police force, bc SSESSBSSES&HSSSS?SSSS THE GERERI? ASSEMBLY. The-* fotto wing are some of the meas? ures that? have been introduced and i acted upon : Mr. Turner, to abolish the office of superintendent of highways and devolve the dattes on the County Commission? ers. Mr? Haskell, to allow unimproved landa, which have not been on the tax books since 1876, to be listed without penalty. Senator You mao's bill 'to amend an Act to change the time of listing pr jp (Tty for taxation' caused some debate. It added to Section 1 of the Act named the' following provision : ?That the fol? lowing f gr ?cul taral products, to wit. corn, cotton, wheat, oat?, rice, peas and ' long forage, made on the day specified by law, shall be the amounts actually on hand OD August 1. immediately pre? ceding the date of said- return ; provid? ed further, that this shall apply only to such of sa id products as a: e actually in the hands of the producer thereof/ The purpose of the bill was to relieve the farmer from the payment of taxes on all but the surplus of his agricul? tural product?, it being estimated that the amount remaining on band on the 1st of August could justly be considered a surplus. Senator Moise moved to re-commit ' the bill as he considered it partial and class legislation. He made this motiou with the knowledge that it would be de? feated, but he would insist upou it. Senators Yeomans and Sinkler em? phatically favored tb_. bill and main? tained that it was not discriminative. The motion to recommit was rejected by a vote of 22 to 4. The bill was tben passed and sent to the House without a division. The bill to regulate and restrict the rights of railroad corporations in ac? quiring additional lines of road in this State passed the Senate with amend ments. As passed, it provides that railroads cannot acquire by lease, pur? chase or otherwise additional lines with? out first obtaining a permissive Act from the Legislature, on penalty of for feitin^heir charter, and is intended to prej^Sfceosolidatioo or 'gobbling up' -__~~~"*^otsmaller roads by larger ones. lu the House tbe Senate bill prohib? iting the obstruction of navigable streams by railroad bridges was hotly ! debated On Monday and Tuesday aud finally passed. The bill to limit the rate of interest to 7 per cent, was in? definites postponed-yeas, 68 ; nays, 47. in the Senate a bill was introduced to reorganize the State University.

WASBI5GTOX, D. C., Dec. 3, 1887. . ' The Democratic ' Congressional ' Cau? cus, which will assemble at the Capitol the last of this week, will settle the fate of'a number of aspiring gentlemen who are ambitious t?~aerve their country as subordinates of the'House of Re? presentatives. It is the opioion of many that the Hon. 'Sunset5* Coxis tobe both temporary and permanent chairman of the 'Democratic Caucus. Since I last wrote you, the situation has changed somewhat-all the candidates for Door? keeper having withdrawn except two. Donaldson and Hunt, a contestant for the Clerkship haring appeared 'to the person of W. G. Raines, of Rochester, N Y>, and it is said that be is support? ed by powerful influences. On the other h?od, the friends of the present Clerk, Gen. Jon. B. Clark, of Missouri, con? fidently claim his re-election. Greater interest ia felt in political circles in Washington as to what may transpire at the other end of the Capitol next Monday, as'the seats of at least two of the twenty-six Senators who will ; present themselves to be ?worn in on that day, are to be contested-one each from Cali'oroia and West Vergioia, to say nothing cf a 'protest' from Indiana --the situation being complicated by tbe fact that of tbe fifty Senators hold? ing over, twenty five are Democrats and twenty fire are Republicans-Rid dleberger included. Thus the Senator j from Virginia holds tbe balance of pother. I am informed that it is the poi icy of the Democrats to forestall tbe contestM by urging the seating of ali the new Senators at once in a body, and in case the Republicans refuse assent to the proposition, to produce a legislative dead-lock. The admission of the Sena? tors from California and WestVirginia involves the right of the State legisla? ture to' choose a United States Senator at an'extra session; thus the decision in these cases will be useful as a pre? cedent to settle future contests of this cbararter. There is every indication that the Senate will wage a vigorous war against the President this winter-the provoca? tion being Mr. Cleveland's appointment of the American Fisheries Commis? sioner?, who rank diplomatically as special envoys, without the 'advice and consent of the Senate.' The question of prerogative thus raised is quite an old one, dattag back early in thc history of the Govdrnment, and it affords poli? tical demagogues a ready subject bf interminable controversy. Thc International Fisheries Commis ste? is DOW ia sttret session si the State Dep?rtese**, wad consequently the deliberations of this dignified body are act known to the public. - The argument in the Standard Oil diierimiaation cases, much to the sur* nrfee of nearly everybody, has been postponed by the Interstate Commission till January 16th. From all your cor? respondes t cao learn of the evidence, it seems that a rather strong Case has been made out against the Jumbo of monopolies, if Jay Gould's telegraph Hoes be excepted. Chief Justice Waite, of the Supr?me Court, celebrated bis seveatv-frst birth? day this week, bot he does not look a day over sinsv. years. One year ago the venerable jurist was eligible to re? tirement, and be could Chen have re? signed his commission and demanded a salary of $10,000 per annum the remainder of bis life, -fee same may be said ef Associate Justices f teta, Miller, add Bradley. Perhaps tn no other conn try of the world cae bc wit? nessed four septuagenarians vigorously working every day, when they could receive precisely the same compensation for doing aOtbiagwhatever. According to the annual report nf the First Assistant PostasaoterGeneral, the on to ber of postoffiees in tne Uhithe States on * June 39, 1<887, was 55,157 ; it further Snows (he still more gratifying fact that over 25,'860 Democrats have been appointed* post? masters d?riog the past two years. It is surprising to think of (he vast amount of money lost In? transmission tbroegh the mails. The report of the' dead letter office shows that the sam, of $29,687 was fouod in letters, of which ?mount $22.639 was returned to the senders. There was deposited in the Treasury $6,672. taken from ?tad letters that could not be restored to the owners, and also $2,921, the proceeds of auction sales of packages of mer? chandise, which could not be restored.
