lists as now required of the Sccctmen (not

get for their services So per day and FIVE

A resolution providing for the appointment
of two Fish Commissioners for each County
has passed two readings, and will become a
law without doubt, These Commissioners get
for their services So per day and 10 cents per
milo for all necessary travel. They are re-
quired to examine all streams, which migra-
tory fish ascend, and report all distractions to
their FREQ going up; also, all noxious matters
and substances which flow into such streams.
Build up your traps, for the Legislature is
going to encourage tho Immigration Of fish,
and as you all must bear part of the cxpen
ses, you had better prepare to reap part of
the profits. Scott is the fishcrman's friend.

hope it will,pass.
The Senate has passed the bill to pay the
interest on the bonds and stocks of this State
in coiu. 1t ouly needs the signature of tho
Governor to becou,e law. 1t is now en-
gagged in reading the Code Of Practice every
night when it can get quorum. We hear
there is seldoma quorum present. This bill
is Its pages long, and should be valuable, as
it cost the State near Sl50 900. 1t is said to
be almost literal copy Of the New York
Code of Practice, and gentleman remarked
to me he thought it could have been copied
for $50 to $lOO, and saved tho State good
deal of money. Of course the State is rich
and liberal, to pay such prices on manual la
Dor, and pay the interest in coin, thing no
other State dreams Of Whenever any law of
public nature is adopted we will try to in
form your readers fully. The committee on
the contested election for Senator from Able

tax payers Of tho State as follows, viz:
TO amount Of premium oT2coin to
meet tho interest on State debt
(about) 100000
To money expended to no purpose by
Blue Ridge Railroad (about) 100000
Total, only $4,000
Perhaps it would DO unfair to leave the
above s.atouaoa. without explanation, as some
little of that money is perhaps to go to pay
the half score Of men who havo been attached
to tho engineer corps during tho past sum-
mer, and perhaps some of it is to go as por-
ton Of the pay for workshops now being erect
ed. Suppose it is the object to have shops
ready to furnish rolling stock to send forward
as many trains as the accumulated freight will
require by the time the road is Completed
Whether it be good policy or not isa question
for fnancicrs.
AS to the second object of conference.-the
of securing harmony among themselves
does not seem that they were so successful.
Several hundred thousand dollars of the
bonds provided in October of 1853 have been
signed and endorsed. Some want to take
hold of that means and continue the prosecu-
ton of this "grcat enterprise "-borc the
tunnels throughput cit without any moro
extensive contracting on q paper basis, when
it is impossible to tell how soon coin may
como down to par with paper currency, OF
even with bouds. Others seem disposed to
wait awhile for " developments" and lock up
those bonds and not allow them to see day
light-at least not through any tunnel, tor
some time to come.
To add still greater confusion, bill has
been introduced in tho Legislature to repeal
the appropriation of 1868.
If oil parties interested can agree on any
line Of policy (including spoils) and indicate
it to certain body in this city, it will be

COLUMBIA, S. c., Dec. 13, 1869.

jHr Editor: AS the people in your sec
ton Of tile State feel deep interest in every
thing connected with the prosecution of tho
work on the Blue Ridge Railroad, and as thai
s ~othng of satisfactory nature mad
ana Il, No public, thought it might b
known Iatt ;tofs" hah, mr. readers to have mar
of some interest to -, '''' '..'' ~ have doYcl
ratiyc Of facts and rumors as tn., >,,
oped at this place. $
Itsccms that the resembling of tho ContraS,
with Mossrs. Creswcll g. Co. was only the bo.
ginning Of trouble with those conducting the
affairs Of tho road. After tho Contract re-
fcrred to was rcscnded in Charleston, there
were several private mootings hold in this
city, the object ofiwhich protracted conference
scems toshayo been of two.fold nature-th that
of satisfying the gontlomen with whom they
had dealt 80 summarily in depriving them of a
fat contract, and that of endeavoring to secure
harmony among themselves in the appropria-
ton Of the goldon eggs that arc from time to
timo deposited by tho pct bird of all colors,
without killing the goose which lays them.-
] Finally, iNga SUCCESS crowned tho gigantic and
protracted efforts with respect to tho first OBJ
ject mentioned, and Mossrs. Croswe,.S& Co.
were to draw out on the payment of $4,000
(asstatod blythe papers), leaving tho Compa-
ny responsible to sub.contractors already en-
gagged on the work. LIN connection with, and
70. she purpose Of meeting the obligations Of
this compromise, checks to the amount of
Sl5Q.Q00 w6ro drawn on the financial agent
of tho State---but to add still greater misfor
tune, they wero presented on tho same day
that the pet measure Of tho samo agent (tho
bill providing for8tho payment Of tho State
Securities in speeio), had failed by a large.
TO pass tho House. He could not
endorse the draft beoauso the securities wero
solow in tho market, and tho Legislature had
refused to make them botter by, promising to
payin oon. What was o3be doae in this
emergency Something must haId be dloao to save
tho Blue Ridge Railroad, and to save the
credit Of tho State. Soa ering' was formed,
at tho bill ives roconsidered the very next
day, and the Int nest made payable In coin,
And tho .safIftsof tho Company was endorsed
also on the same day. - ss s.S3 s.SS
