1t would take London detective to
pursue our Legislature successfully
through all the convolutions of it's
proceedings on the subject of relief.
1t now appears that the House has
reconsidered the questiorsand reversed
its former action by vote of 55 to 46.
1t is also believed that the Senate
either has or will confirm this action.
We publish to-day the debate pre-
ceeding the vote and record of the
votes.

Editorial Correspondence.
COLUMBIA, Sentember 10

COLUMBIA, September 10.
If there is ever time when men
should feel keenly the weight ofrespon-
sibility resting upon them, it is When
they stand as the representatives of
people in republican government.
"A representative is emphatically a
Conservator. He occupies peculiar
position. Between the rights of his
constituents olp one hand, aud the re-
strictions of the Constitution on the
other, his positionis one to call forth
all the energies of sound Judgment,
in order to keep from infringing too
much upon one side or the other.
Now on which side is it better for him
to err? This is nice point to decide.
If he err in infringing upon the rights
ofhis constituents without violation
ofthe Constitution, it is easy to sup
plant him with. one who will prove q
better guardian Of those rights. But
ifhe infringe upon the restrictions of
Constitution, and be sustained in that
infraction by his constituents, he re-
tains his place, but yhe and his con-
stituents are better prepared for fur
ther infractions of the boundary line
of constitutional limits, and the gap
being once thrown open, there is no
telling where the food will stop.
lam lead into these reflections by
the lamentable fact that allusion has
been made in this General Assembly
to the violations of the Federal Con.
stitation on the part of Congress to
.palliate the effort now making to dis
regard the decision ofthe Court of En-
rors, Ito step over the restrictions Of

the public, and to consult and advise
for the public good is good thing.
The public consists of every man in
community, and as every man has
his own opinion there is consequently
a great diversity Of opinions in COM
munity. The object of consultation
is to ascertain and determine what
opinions should Be practically aban-
donod and what, practically adopted
in order to securethe greatest perma-
nent good to the greatest number, and
so much is society entangled with diff
ferent interests, conditions, pursuits,
and inclinations that there are few
questions of Importance, the decision
of which, in this respect, is not attend
ed with great difficulty. We are apt
to form a notion of public sentiment
from the opinions which we hear ex-
pressed. How important then in or
der that a just notion be formed that
The expression Of fopinion be general ?
Hence, when public meeting is call
ed it is proper that the subject or sub
jects to be discussed be named in or
der that they may be considered by
the people and opinions formed so
that they may be able to vote with
judgment on tile summary embodied
in resolutions: Hence, again, it is
important that every man who feels
an interest in the subject relating to
the public welfare, part of which is
his own, should atteud when oonve-
nient.
In order that resolutions be drawn
up with strict reference to public opin-
ion, would it not be we'll to discuss
the subject before appointing a COM
mittee to draw up resolutions ? A. Sc
ries prepared by a committee after
hearing the discussion would be more
likely to receive the appreciation of
majority than one prepared before,
and should this fail to be approved,
men residing at a distance would be
unwilling to wait for discussion of a
second, -.
Allow me here to present a few
thoughts elating to the subject pro-
posed for the consideration of meet
ing recommended to be held on the
first Monday in October s'for the pur-
pose of devising some uniform plan to
regulate the employment of free la
bor." 1t is the opinion of the writer
that any plan that might be devised
would be found impracticable, for the
uniformity must relate to the mode of
employment, the rate of wages, or the
character of contracts and any plan
in regard to any of these would fail to
meet universal appreciation, and con.
sequently would fail to be obligatory
in absence ofthe power of law which
it must fail to receive for, society,
through its agent the Legislature, has
no more right to decide how man
shall employ'labos, for what wages, or
by what contract, than it has to decide
how he shall cultivate, for what price
to sell his products, or on whatfeed his
horse nay, than to pass on agrarian
law. The last barrier overleaped by
Legislature the danger becomes i'm
minent. Everything beyond its legit-
innate range should be left to the con-
troll Of the individuals of communi-
ty.
Resolutions, to adopt. uniformity in
this matter, not carried out, would be
useless, but is this all : Would not
any public action that has the appear.
