"BuRHr DISTRICT" ON THE RAMPAGE.

The notorious mulatto Randolph, of Burnt Dis
rict fame, has let loose the yials Of his pent-up
wrath and is down on ''rebels" generally. He
himself, by persistent onslaught upon the Re-
publican Senator from Barnwell, the ''irrepressi-
ble' LESLIE, whose fiery castigations Of the Burnt
District hero mako the "galled jade VINCE" In
the Senate proceedings, one day last week, Ran
dolph introduced the following resolutions which
were ordered for consideration the next day, but
have not been heard of since their introduction:
Whereas, the fomer leaders of the late rebellion,
by their journals and public speakers are again
advising md urging resistance to civil authority,
causing thereby civil and domestic dscord which
may lead to dreadful results, and
Whereas, the civil authority by many is being
disregarded, many lnwless acts have recently been
committed therefore,
Resolved, That the Committee on Military Affairs
be instructed to ascertain from His Excellency the
Governor what further Legislation is necessary to
preserve the public peace and bring the vioators
of law TO justice.
Then comes o resolution 10 expel the Senator
from Barnwell, for three reasons, namely: First,
contempt for the President pro tenn of the Senate,
one j. j. Wright, n negro from Beaufort who
presided that body during the absence of
BoozER, and whom LESLIE refused to recognize as
the proper man for that high position, even though
temporarily. Second, contempt for the Senate,
and thirdly, conduct unbecoming Senator and n
gentleman This resolution was also postponed,
and VIC think it likely that tho "irrcpressibe" will
continue to occupy his seat, unmolested in his
privileges. and unawed by the valiant Senator
from Orangeburg. One of two institutions i'll Co
lumbia ought to receive an inmate forthwith, and
we are not decided whether The Lunatic Asylum
or tho Poneniary has the best right to capture
Randolph and cage him 10 prevent further mischief.

The attention of the Senate on Friday was prin-
c;nallv devoted TO the consideration of commlni-
cation spread before them by the President, to
whom it was addressed, recording the fact thata
Republican County Convention, of Barnwell, had
requested Senator Leslie TO resign his seat, MS his
speeches and actions indicated that he no longer
represented the party which had placed him in pow
er. The reading of the paper having been conclu-
ded. Mr. Leslie addressed the Senate in his vigor-
GUS style, showing that The County Convention re-
ferretl to, was composed of fifteen men, eleven OF
whom were negroes, who could neither read nor
write and the rest mean white men, whom lie had
actually saved from disgrace and starvation. Kan
dolph, Senator from the burnt district, made sew
eral efforts to launch into one of his hts OF black
guartsn, but even those of his own color and par
ty cried him down; and he succeeded in saying
nothing more in substance shan, thut he was pre-
sent at the Convention which nominated Leslie,
TO which Leslie replied soto roce. but loud cnongh
to he heard in any part Of the Senate chamber,
"that's lie, why don't you speak the tratli.'
Cochlan, also. the man who revels in the idea that
he is almost as good rs u negro-an imputation
which all the respectable colorcd Senators indig-
nanty rcpel-nttcnped to throw dirt at Leslie,
but wns brought TO order before ho had said twcn-
y words. The papers were finally laid on the
table.
In the House, on Friday Inst, the Railroad Com
mittcc reported favorably on the bill to authorize

accident happened shortly before 10 O'Clock, at
which time four men were engaged at the saw,
n large one OF above four ana half feet In
diameter, Two men were engaged IN WORKING
the ''caIyiage" and timber in front OF the saw
and the oil her two were in the rear dlsposlng OF
the boards and refuse pieces as they caI1e out.
Robb was standing next the saw with his back
He took up one end OF refuse piece. while
Patrick Crehan had the other one. They were
in the act OF hurting the long piece of wood to
one side when II broke in Two places, and Robb
lost his balance and fell back upon the saw.
The usual speed OF the saw Is about six hun
dred revolutions per minute. and the untortus

two and ore half of his body fall upon each
side of the saw. One side of his face was torn

The Alaska Bribery.

The New York Herald's Washington special,
ds' ed yesterday, says:-
The Alaska bribeIy Investigation was re-
sumed to-day, but elected little further OF q
positive chsrac er. Colonel II. l. Hinton, the
CORRESPONDENT OF the Worcester Spy, was exa-
mined, and stated that his information was
derived from conversations with newspaper
men and that he knew nothing OF the matter
OF his own knowledge. He explained his OBJ
jectS in writing the letter which appeared in
the SDa, and was asked several other questions
bat without elciting any new facts. Neither
Colonel Martin nor Mr.. Bodisco, Secretary
OF the Russian Legation, appeared be-
fore the Committee. Mr.. Hulourd, chair
man of the committee. yes;e day wrote q
poite sote to Mr. BOdisco, stating that the
comm ttee was in session, would NEST on certain
days, aud If he (Bodisco) mad anything that he
would be willing to communicate Q the C Om mittee
would be glad to hear him. Up to o'clock
to-day Bodisco had not answered this note. AS
10 Colonel Martin, who is supposed to be the
oripinRLor of all the rumors the bject, IL Is
believed he will be on hand to testify to- morrow.
There was q little rumor atloat To- day which
may throw some light on the disposltion of
a. 600, 900 of the fund. II was TO the effect that
So 600 600 were Eent 10 Massachusetts to buy
arms Tor the Russian Government, and that a
large humber OF these arms were sold At q high
price the supposition being that some OF the
money went to certain parties ia this way for
tn cir services In procuring the passage Of the
appropriation. The committee viii meet again
to morrow morning and then adjourn until
after The holidays.
