"OUR LATE RErREsENTArIvEs.--Our
late Represent atiyes, Hon. Levi i. Tate,
and Hon. George S. Tuition, having re.
turned to their homes since the adjourn.
ment of the State Legislature, we feel it
an obligation resting upon us, to compli.
ment them for the zeal and honesty they
displayed in attending to the wants Of
their constituents during their Representa-
tive career. On all local questions effect
ing this District, they acted intelligently
and with judgment, and to the entire sat
isfactioh of their constituents, and on the
more important questions of State and
National policy they acted with due
regard to the wants of the country, and
what was necessary to the perpetuation of
sound Democratic principles. Well done

"REruRNED HoME.-The Legislature
having adjourned on tho llth inst, our
Representatives have returned home to
enjoy once more the blessings of private
life. We notice by the last Columbia
Democrat, that Col. TATE its veteran ed.
itor, has again resumed control of its
columns. The Colonel acquitted him
self honorably and creditably to bis
constituents, by his strait. forward, honest,
consistent and conscientious course as their
Representatives, at Harrisburg, during
the late session. His action in regard to
our national and local matters, consider
ing the position he was charged with as.
suming by his political enemies, and which
called forth all the vituperation and mis-.
representation of his opponents, during
the canvass last fall, should make them
hide their guilty heads for very shame
Both he and Colonel Tuition, have dis
charged their obligations, fearlessly and
faithfully, and should receive the plaudit
of "well done good and faithful servants"
