we Ibo balloting will begin for a Untyed Staten to fil) the place nbw' by Senator Robertson, of ofUco ex? 187L We have had little to nay on thia aubjoat, becaOBe we haye deemed it a.matter which we could not for the honor and good of names' of the mon proposed for tho office of TJui ted tutos Sepat'ofv, We favor tho eledtion oS'none whose names have been tlie claims of thom nil We want po mon to go to the United States Senat? from South Caro lina, excopt ono fitted to represent the tone'-' virtue, the intelligence of South 'Carolina. With ns the question is, does tho candidato oppose Radicalism? Oar candidato must be a bold, out? spoken Carolinian--one opposed to Radi? calism-in-all its forms, and one reso? lutely bebt npou the redemption of South Carolina from the regime that now weighs like an incubus both upon the State and tho country. Give UB a bold, strong, hopeful, resolute, wide-awake South Carolinian, "native, and to tho manner born." We go for such a man. Such a man cannot be elected now. We shall not go out of our way to find the least of all the evils.

THE accounts from France are so confused, that it is impos? sible to arrive at the exaot position of af? fairs. One thing, however, is evident the war is fast reaching a crisis. Paris, without a supply of provisions, cannot hold out many days; therefore, the siege must bo raised by a defeat of tho Ger? mans, Ol'the oity must fall. If tho re? port's of tho auction of tho two French armies he true, as reported, the re-pro? visioning of Paris has become practicable and the war may be prolonged without a repulse of the besiegers. This, however, ie questioned, and we must await further advice's before forming any opinion as to the ol'.

'J Saggeatlona Mn. EDITOR: see that Mr. Levy hos "introduced a bill to authorize the Attorney-General to purchase for the State a manuscript compilation of the penal statutes of the State, prepared by E. B. Seabrook, of the Charleston Bar." Now, notwithstanding tho gorgeous display of carpets, chaudeliers, coruices, curtains and costly ornaments at tho State House, South Carolina is a small and poor State; and we think reasonable eoonomy ought to be practiced; and make tho following suggestions: Tho At? torney-General is by the Constitution relieved of the duties of Solicitor of the Charleston Circuit, and ought to have time to make the compilation himself, and without oharge, The penal statutes are all printed, and we aro told by a lawyer that ull are indexed up to 1839, and that au index of the later statutes can be made on two pages of foolscap.

Again. It haa been the practice of all Solicitors to make for their own uso a compilatiou of all the penal statutes and of the criminal law; and the Attorney General might obtain without charge a copy from his relative, Mr. Chamberlain, tho Solioitor of the Charleston Circuit. Again. Wo have been informed that the Attorney-General has a law partner in Charleston, by the name of Soabrook, nod ho might obtain for tho Attorney General, without charge from his rela? tive, E.

B. Seabrook, a copy of the latter's valuable compilation. Again. There is a Commission, well paid, coustituted for tho very purpose of making suoh compilations, of which Commission Mr. Whipper is Chairman, and as by Seotion 28, Article 2 of tho Constitution, Mr.

Whipper is declared uot "eligible to a seat in thc General As? sembly wh'lst ho holds" this "office of profit" under the State, ho must now have leisure to perform this duty for whioh he is paid, and make this compi? lation, without further chargo to tho State. RETIRED. Mn. EDITOR: I havo beou traveling extensively iu Laurens within a week. Went there the day aftor the Govern? ment troops arrived, and returned to Abboville several days after they left.

I was at Laurens Court House on two successive days, and wing heard that "Tin Pot" was literally riddled by the "rebels," by firing upon tho Jo CJIEWITES contained in it, I examined that fortress closely, aud could not find whore a soli? tary ball hod entered that ic ill-be. relic of Toryism. I understand, Mr. Editor, by quite a number of reliable citizens, that tne officer in command of tho troops referred to had learned, and really ex? pected to find at lea3t 2,000 armed rebels ready to meet him at his coining; but on his arrival, finding nothing but ponce, quiet and good order, ho was perfectly indignant at the slanderous lies that had been perpetrated by Jo Crews and his myrmidons, upon a peaceful, law-abi? ding community. That officer, with his troops, left, and I have no doubt but his visit to Laurens will prove eminently useful to the cause of good order and pure Democracy.

I -rf -m- -iV- MB. ED rr OK: Sunday afternoon 'wno an interesting occasion to the officers, teachers and children of tho largo and growing Sabbath School of Marion Street Ohurch, of this city. Tho school had as? sembled, until there was not a vacant seat, to hear the farewell remarks of their faithful pastor. Tho interest of this touching and long-to-bo-romembor ed occasion was increased by tho sub? stantial exhibition of affection and es? teem, in presentation of apiece of silver, upou which waa engraved "To our be? loved Pastor, William W. Mood, from Marion Street Sabbath School." COLUMBIA, December 4, 1870.

HOMICIDE OF COLONEL following despatch from Dawson, giving tho result of the trial of John Kelly for tho murder of Colouel Ames, will surprise tho public; but wc know nothing of the evidence befoiv the jury: DAWSON, December verdict of tho jury, in the 3nse of tho State against John Kelly, for tho murder of Colouel C. T. Ames, proprietor of the New Orleans Circus, iu November last, was "Not guilty." WHY THE TROOPS WEBE SENT TO NEW is now given as a reason why the troops were sent to New York to "insure a quiet election," that, ubout thc 20th of October, Assistant Treasurer Hillhonse, of New York, wrote from New York, through Secretary Bedwell, that he lind information through the detectives that there was great proba? bility that a riot would occur on election day, iu which case tho sub-treasury wonld be entirely nt tho mercy of the mob, and that Secretary Boutwell was no impressed with tho information that he brought it bofore the Cabinet, with the result so well known. It is supposed that the same motives which influenced tho administration in sending troops to Now York prevailod also io the case of the Eastern Shore of Maryland and other Sun. A frightful accident occurred at Si neath's, on the South Carolina Railroad, on Friday last, by tho giving way of tho scaffold erected over a well just dug on tho aide of the track.

Six of tho work? ingmen woro precipitated into tho well, which luckily had but a few feet of wal er in it. Thomas Loftus, one of the hunda, waa plunged in tho mud and had his leg broken above the knee. Tho men oo the outside immediately lowered a ladder, and by that means were enabled to get those who bad fallen in, up. .1 train passed at tho timo of thc breaking of the scaflbld, aud it may have caused tho accident by shaking thc superstruc? ture, causing it to give away. Courier.

SOMETHING will scarcely be believed that in this year of our Lord 1870, men aro actually caught at night, like so many cattlo, perhaps drugged, and then carried on ship-board and im? pressed iuto service. Yet, it is oven so. Several cases have already been reported to tho Courts, and it is understood that others havo occurred. At the present time, mystery hangs about tho fate of ono individual, who, it is said, suddenly disappeared ou Saturday night from At? lantic wharf, and whose whereabouts havo uot been discoverod. Clots of blood and a pistol left behind, would seem to indicate a struggle for life, aud that either murder or captivity has been tho result.

Xeics. Burd, editor of a uowspoper published iu Atlanta, called tho IVue Georgian, heretofore ostensibly devoted to tho support of Grant'a administration, comes out this morning declaring tho mission of tho Republican party ended; renouncing Grant and Republicanism; hoisting at tho head of its columns the name of John T. nofftnan for President, and Genoral Johu B. Gordon for Governor, in 1872; and supporting the Democratic nominees for Congress in his district. This action has caused a considerable stir in the ranks of tho Republican party.

PORT BOYAL learn that the work upon this now enterprise is steadily progressing. Twenty-odd miles of track aro already in running order, and the determination is to complete tho remaining portion at the earliest day possible. Business men in Beaufort, it is said, haye made their arrangements to establish brunch houses in the new city of Port Royal, as soon aa railroad con? nection with it is established, and prepa? rations aro in course for building ou a largo sculo.

PARDONED BY THE President to-day pardoned ex-Speaker Calicott, of tho New York State Legisla? ture, who'was, two years ago, sentoncod to two years' imprisonment and 810,000 fine for defrauding tho revenue.
