MrHE HOUSE, to-day, the following papers
we're entered on the journal:
The undersigned, members Of the House OF
REPRESENTATIVES, do hereby enter our protest
against resolution authorizing the Governor
Of the State to enlist company OF one hunoreo
or more men as military organization TO en-
force the civil laws OF South Carohna, 1or the
following reasons, viz:
LIST. Because the courts are organized, 1ull
quota OF civil officers installed In each county,
and the whole machinery Of civil government
in full operation.
I'd. Because in time of peace, which now
prevails in South Carolina, military organlza-
tions are dangerous to the liberties OF the
Sd. Because, even if the ordinary civil Off
GERS common to republican governments were
insufficient to preserve the peace in our State,
ample provisions have already been made for
the contingency by the organization OF q
Estate police"
will. IL stead Of preventing lawlessness, be the
most fruitful agent in producing the very state
of affairs which it is intended to remedy.
5th. Because it greatly augments the already
intolersble burden of taxation by organizing
military force to accomplish that which, ac-
cordins to the organic law OF the land, 1t ID
the duty Of the posse consIatus to perform
without any expense TO the state wnaseVer' r a.
spirit Of all republican institutions, in that it
imposes an unjust and unequal taxation upon
that portion of the citizens Of the Stst who
may happen to reside in the vicinity where an
outrage has been committed, and thereby
punish the many for the violation Of the few.
7th. Because the productive energy OF the
unoertainty arising from an acknowledgment
on the part of the civil authorities that recon-
stxuetion is failure, and that obedience to
the laws can only be enforced at the point OF
the bayonet.

In the exercise Of constitutional right ac-
corded to every member OF the General As
aembly, Me record our votes in the negative on
a b;r entitled, "A bill to regulate the practice OF
medicine" passed by this body, yesterday, and
ASSIGN as reasons therefor, as follows:
The law now of ferce in this State projects
the profession and people from quacks and I'M
rosters more fully than the bill under consloe
ration, inasmuch as by it regular graduates OF
the Alopathic and Thompsonlan sGnools ol
medicine are the only practitioners allowed to
avail themselves Of legal remedies for the col
lection of their fees; whilst this bill provides
that the graduates Of all medical schools, OF
name or character, shall enjoy IKE
nriviIeses. In addition to this wide door tor
irregular practice already too common IN the
country, it places the regular graduate OF the
Best medical schools who has sustained heavy
expense in the acquisition OF his profession,
and spent, perhaps, q good portion OF his Life
in perfecting himself in it. Oh an equality with
the charlatan, who has been practicing bis
imnositions on the people fer Ten years with
ont any preliminary education whnteVer, ana
without, perhaps, single qualification for the
practics OF any enc Of the departments OF

A bill to ratify and amend the charter OF the

Whipper moved a postponement TO Janu-
DsIaree spoke earnestly in favor of the i'm
mediate Consideration OF the bill, and explain
ed the objects Of the company and the good it
would do the Stale.
McKinlay gave history Of the company, and
hoped that the bill would be amended 30 as to
make it more satisfactory.
-'Whipper wanted time for examination and
preparation. The company proposed to issue
100000 shares upon security OF their property,
which might be valuable and might be two old
carts and shovels.
Ransier opposed the motion to postpone. He
spoke of the value of the phosphstes, and SAID
that home enterprises should be supported:
Mr.. Puryis said the committee were satisfied
Of the amount Of property pledged by the COM
pany. They wanted to begin operations On
June l.
Mr. Jenks said that the object Of the COM
pany was to issue stock and sell it in the North.
The stock represented nothing. There was 70
evidence to show that they had 5000 900 worth
of property. The assets amounted to nothing
Like it. He hoped the motion " postpone
would prevail.
Elliott thought that the wi.hes of the
Charleston delegation should be respected,
and the bill considered at once.
