Tli-: Columbia correspondent of the diariest"ii Court r writes a# follows with regard to tlie legislation of the late section of the Legis* l.iture, and tlie spirit of harmony, which characterized the various elections : Short a.- the session I>i.r Leon, much valuable legislation lias been effected, while some of tlie measures will, for a time, appear to he of i the most radical nature. In this respect the | separate Court of Appeals stnnd.s foremost, and j tlie char re of the Circuit is next. The elee- | lions Irr the various posts of honor have Jx.*eii conducted in a spirit of hi<rmouy and good will. Most of the candidates Were run without their knowlcdgeor consent. This was especially the ease in the notumuiiou of Jlr. 1'eitigru and Judge Wardlaw. hv their respective trieuds. it is gratifying tit l>e able to state that no one more cordislly appioves and endorses the selection of Mr. l'ettigru for .the office of Commissioner to Codify the Statute Lawsof the State than Judge Wardlaw. Indeed, I iiave learned lliat each of theso Miiinent Tlii'iafa to??o *- - -?* ? ? ?? ...m.iu.ig iu ui: put 111 nomination | against the oilier, und tho close run the3" made fur llic important u[>|)ointmeut shows the exalted estimation in which both nre held by the Legislature and by the citizens of the Stale generally. The election of Judge O'Ncnll to tn* office of Chief Justice, and the election of Mr. Pettigru to' that of State Codifier, tnay well be regarded as nt once nn exhibition of magnanimity and goneiosity, and a tribute to uuiuent worth and ability. lit noticing the debate upon the road bill, he makes the following complimentary mention >f Gen. McGowan, cf onr Delegation : The debate on the road hill for ihe establishment ef ctrtain rt>ads, bridges and ferries, en listed a large number of country members, and whs conducted with spirit and earnestness, rurnpike, toll bridge, and ferry laws were mccessively brought to, the attention of the louse, nnd the clauses favoring each speaker's d'juct, presented in striking and indisputable ight. It might, also, be appropriately men ioniid that two frien<Is of the bill, n6 a whole vere two Generals and the tallest menilK?rs of he House, nnd whose views, as whs observed, xpandeciover a vast extent pfcountry. These vere Gen. GAp(tjr?t*y, Chairman of the Com nittes and Gen!'BJcGowav, of Abbeville. Both ire apparently offobust constitution and iron rums and both are good speakers. Whenever | Gt>n. McGowan speaks, tne House becotfics i ill^-nt. and he is listened to attentively. The lebate ou this bill continued near two liuurs. i Forged Bank Nole?.?Tho Charleston Mercury )f Saturday, says: On Thursday lust, two $60 bills of the fMnte < Bunk, in thin city, were presented at the counter ?f that institution, by separate parties, for pay* nent.
