The Senate must have a presiding officer
in the absence of the Vice President, or
when the Vice President exercises the Office
of President Of the United States the pre-
siding officer must be President pro tempore
Of the Senate, and there can be but one
President pro tenpore at any one time. To
elect a second vacates the Office of the first.
This has more than once happened in the
history of the Senate.
The conclusion of this examination is
too obvious and decisive to need further
statement, though other considerations
might be offered Every avenue to the
Presidency through either House of Con-
gress has been efectually closed by the
Constitution; for the main objections to
the President pro tempOre of the Senate are
equally potent against the Speaker of the
House of Representatives. The Fathers
indeed "builded wiser than they knew"

the caption of this paper would be-NOl .

RELIEE For THE SOUTH.

The necessities of the South are, as usual at this
season of the year, beginning to attract the atten-
ton of the government. The condition of the
freedmen in Mississippi, as reported by Gen. Ord,
first brought up the subject and Gen. Candy has
backed it up with untavorabe accounts of the
prospects of all classes in his District Generals
Grant and Howard have had several conferences
on the subject, besides corresponding with the
several military commanders of the Southern
States. The sum of the matter is Gen. Howard
is satisfied that the government must extend aid
to the South, both to relieve present want and tc
guard against future difficulties.
Various plans have been suggested, to furnish
this relief, among which are aid in the form o.
charity, to be given only to persons in pcrishing
condition, and in amounts just sufficient to keer
them alive; aid in the form of employment upor
public works; and aid in the form OF small loans
from the public treasury, to be repaid when the
crops are made The first two plans are too plea
yune to require comment, and can, if adopted, re-
eve but a small part ofthe destitution. The thiro
plan, which proposes to loan $50, 100000, in small
sums. to Southern farmers, undoubtedly afford
material assistance to our people, by giving then,
the means to make support for the next year.
But there are several objections to it. The agents
employed in distributing this large sum, would
absorb great deal of it in the way OF commissions,
if they refrained from little speculation in the
necessaries of life, on their own account. BESIDES
it would be difficult matter to determine who
needed assistance, and who could be relied on to
refund the loan when it became due; for if $780,
Yorkville enquirer. [volume] (Yorkville, S.C.) 1855-2006, 1868-01-09
900 900 are offered to the needy there will be no
lack of applicants for the precious loan.

100000 are offered to the needy, there will be no
lack of applicants for the precious loan.
But the worst feature of this plan, is the en-
couragement it offers to spirit of dependence up
on others. Our people have heard so much OF
late years about relief, aid loans, stay laws, repu
dation, &C., that many of them have imbibed the
idea that it is somebody's moral duty to support
them, whenever they are unequal to the task
themselves. This doctrine was unknown before
the war; but we fear that consolng belief in the
right to be fed by others, is keeping many able
bodied men idle, when they ought to be at work.
The relief needed by the South is not so much
pecuniary assistance or charity as the privilege OF
being let alone So long as she Is barassed by the
present complicated and exhausting mixture OF
military and civil government; so long as her laws
are made for her by strangers, and changed as OF:
ten as the whim of the hour dictates: so long will
her destitutions annually come up for relief This
fact is beginning to penetrate the brains OF North
ern people, and even of Congress If, for instance,
they wish to aid the South to the extent of $780,
OOO OOO le. them take the cotton-tax Oft the crop
Of 1867. This would be simpler and less expen-
sive method of affording the relief, than loan,
and it would also put that relief exactly where 1t is
needed, viz: in the hands of those who carry on
the agriculture of the country. 1t is certainly a
wonderful piece of fnancering this plan of raising
grinding tax, through an army of wellpaid tax
collectors, and then oaning it back to the tax-pay
ers, through another army of agents If we did
not know that it was the work of very wise gov
ernment, we should be simple enough to think it q
very foolish business, which benefits only the a.
gents, at the expense of both the government and
the people -.--.-

DOINGS IN CONGRESS.

Congress re-assembled on Monday last, and is at
its labor of love-" again. In the House, varie-
ty of bills and resolutions were introduced among
them one to authorize Clerks of Record Courts to
administer oaths in bankruptcy.
Upson, of Michigan, introduced resolution, d.
recting the Committee on Reconstruction to in
uuire into the expediency of authorizing the seve-
raj Conventions elected under the Reconstruction
Acts, in the States lately in rebellion, to appoint
all civil officers, whether State or County, in said
States to act temporarily and until State Consti
tutions shall be adopted therein and officers shall
be chosen and qualified to fill said Offices and that
for this purpose, said Conventions may remove all
civil officers now acting in said States.
Boutwell,, of Massachusetts,, moved to amend the
resolution, by adding-to instruct the Reconstruc-
ton Committee to inquire into the expediency Of
authorizing the General of the army to detail Off
GERS for service in said States; also to inquire into
the expediency Of constituting said States each o
separate Military District under the command Of
General of the army; and also as to the expedi.
ency of providing additional legislation to secure
the elective franchise to all and also to declare by
Act of Congress, thatthe Provisional Governments
set up in said States by order of the acting Presi
dent, are not Republican forms of Government.
Upson accepted the amendments. ,...
Chandler, of New York, moved to lay the whole
subject on the table, which was not agreed to-yeas
% nays 66. The resolutions were then adopted.

BRAZIL EMIGRATION.
YoRKyILLE, s. c., January,

YoRKVILLE, 5. u, January, 1868.
Editor of Enquirer Will you allow me room in
the ENQUIRER, to make statement Of facts, and
a request of those whom these facts may concern
An agency has been established, at New Orleans
to aid emigrants to Brazil, upon the following
terms, viz: The emigrant, on embarking, will pay
$40. The government of Brazil will pay $50; that
is, two-thirds of the passage money; and the emf
grant will not have this $50 to refund, provided
he settles permanently in that country. Arrange
ments are being made land it is believed will be ef-
fected) to allow emigrants to board themselves on
the voyage and then they will not pay anything on
embarking The vessel will make Charleston a
point of call, provided eighty or one hundred emi-
grants can be obtained.
Now, desire those whoexpect to leave for Bra
zil, and who desires to embark at Charleston, to
report to ME, at Yorkvile, s. c., as soon as prac-
tcabe, stating the number of persons, and to what
point in Brazil, they wish to 60, in order that
may be enabled, in due time, to give the informa-
ton to the agency ut New Orleans, and to arrange
for vessel to call at Charleston.
Yours, &c. J.R BAIRD.

ssGENERAL ORDERS, NO. TO-"

As will be seen by reference to General Order,
No. l64, published into-day's paper, General CAN.
BY has made important notifications Of General
Orders No. TO-" generally known as the "Stay
Law"
The change in paragraph I and II are unimport,
ant merely substituting the 29th Of April, 1865,
for the 18th of May, 1865 in reference to ipterdct
ed suits on causes of action arising between De-
cember l9, 1860, and the latter date.
The modification of Paragraph Ill., is more i'm
portant. In the original order, Sheriffs, Magis
trates and Coroners, were required to suspend fol
twelve calendar months, all sales under execution
upon causes of action arising previous to Decem
Der 10, 1860 The paragraph as now modified
and other clauses taken in connection with it, per
mits such sales to be made on certain conditions
The conditions may be thus classed:
/. Provided the cause of action did not arise be-
tween December 10, 1860, and April 90, 1865.
.. Provided the judgment was not enrolled be-
tween December 10, 1860, and June 80, 1865.
8. Provided the Sheriff allow homestead ex
emption to those having family to support, Of q
dwelling house and twenty acres Of land, or SC
much thereof as not to exceed in value $4,000, and
personal property of the value of $500; and in 9th
er cases, property to the value of 5000.
Such, after careful study of the original ORDER
and the late one modifying it, are the conclusions
We arrive at concerning the present law.
Paragraph II of the new order rescinds Order
No. 25, prohibiting the sale of spurious liquors
but permits municipal boards to grant licenses un
der various severe restrictions.
Paragraph w, authorizes the speedy trial Of
prisoners confined in JAIL at special terms of the
District Courts whenever circumstances require it.
