TIE RADICAL SIATE.-Already the elements
are in commotion, and the political "slate" IS be-
ing industrously arranged. Of course, the white
members of the party are to fill oil OF the lmpor-
tant offices in this State, while the prominent ne
croes will be thrown an occasional "bone such
as they have already secured in the way of Re-
rents for the Lunaric Asylum, Trustees OF The
University, and other minor places. The cores
nondent of the Charleston News thus sheds light
On n single combination, but we will remark that
this cannot bo relied upon as anything uke GER
tainty, for it is evident that leadng negroes are
determined TO upset the schemes OF tneif present
white masters The correspondent, in alluding to
the chances of the negro Senator Wright Tor Asso-
cate Justice, says:
According to the report above stated Wright is
TO be supported by some of the kaaicals lot the
office of Lieutenant Governor, but MS ehanees lor
that nosition arc very slight. The general i'm
nrossion is that Scott and Frank Moses, Jr., are
70 no the candidates of the Republican party IN
the coming campaign for the offices of Governor
and Lieutenant Governor; that after they are
elected Scott will be sent to the United states
Senate. and Moses will become Governor, OF
course. Now, this was nice little plan, but the
ambition of parental relative of one of the par,
ties will probably cause it to gang aglee," Chief
Justice Moses has, as asserted, a desire to cast
of his judicial robes and become Senator from
South Carolina. How to crafty this very natural
desire of the Chief Justice and at the same time
carry out the plan mentioned, is the vexed .ques-
tton among the Radicals. Some of them, how.
ever. propose 10 settle it by electing Scott and
Moses to the Offices referred to, let them retain
them. md send the Chief Justice to the Senate.

WASHINGTON NEWS AND GOSSIP.
We make the following extract from the telc-

We make the following extract from the tele-
graphic correspondence Of the Charleston Ne'cs ::
WASHINGTON, January 81.
Within few days there have been such devel-
opments from the conferences of leading kepuoh-
can members of both Houses, that the future poll
cy Of the Republican party can be easily antlcl-
pated. The introduction of The bill in the House
to declare null and void such acts Of the Legisla-
lures and State Conventions as became laws by
virtue of the votes of members of the same, who
are disqualified by the third section of the Four
teenth amendment, is intended to nullify the Ten
nessee State Convention, and but paves the way
for other interference in the internal polity OF the
States by virtue of the consolidation OF power IN
the Federal Government by the Fifteenth amend
ment, when the latter is adopted. Among the
first attempts under that amendment will be the
introduction of bills to carry into force the amend
ment in Marylandss Kentucky and New York.
Owing to the repeal of its ratification by the New
York Democratic Legislature, the Republican mem
bers are extremity anxious to pass general law
removing the properly qualification imposed on
negro voters in New York. Congressional inter-
ference with all the States North well as South,
will soon be the new Radical platform.
The Northern contested election cases have been
pressed so earnestly on the calendar of the House
that the South Carolina case of Wallace against
Simpson was again crowded on. IL Is haru tosay
when it will come up now. The South Carolina
delegation are cndeavoring to seat Wallace, Rad.
but is believed they will fail.
A very queer story has prevailed here several
days to the effect that Edwin NJ. Stanton, in fit
of insanity produced by illness, committed suicide
by cutting his throat 1t will be remembered that
no one outside of the family were allowed to see
the remains, even on the day Of the funeral; and
this has given color to the sensation.
There are half dozen bills before the Recon-
struction Committee proposing to remove the po-
litica disabilities of South Caroinians, but these
have all been laid aside, pending the consideration
of general amnesty law.
The House Committee Appropriations are
averse to making appropriations to complete the
Charleston customhouse, though it has been esti-
mated for by the Department.
A calculation made for the Senate Census Com
mittee shows that under an apporionment of three
hundred members for the House of the Forty
second Congress, the Southern States will gain but
teD members.

JUDGE CARpRNTER.-It will be remembered that
before the recess of the Legislature, there wa.
considerable talk of impeaching several Judges
among them Judge CARPENTER, for alleged injus
lice TO the colored people and other misdemeanor:
in Office 1t was referred to the Senate Judiciary
Committee to consider the charges made agains
CARPENTER, which has reported as follows, com
completely vindicating him as faithful nnd fear
less judicial officer:
The Judiciary Committee, to whom was referred
the letter of Hon K. B. Carpenter, Judge Of the
First Circuit of the 10th of December, 1869, set
ting forth that charge had been made against
him by member of the Senate, in his place on
the floor of the Senate, that he (Carpcnter) had,
as Judge been Unjust 10 the colored people OF
his Circuit; that, if this was true, he was un-
worthy 10 retain the important and responsible
position he now occupied if false he was entitled
to vindicaton as public as the accusation that,
inasmuch rs he was unable to meet it in this gen.
eral and sweeping form he respectfully asked OF
the Senate that the charges be made specific, and
for full and thorough investigation into his off
cial conduct, have had the same under considera-
ton, and beg leave to report
That no charges have been or eau be by your
Committee preferred against the Hon. r. b. Car
That after waiting some time for charges to be
preferred, your Committee made special inquiry
of those who, if anybody, were expected to pre-.
sent and sustain by proof any charges of official
s-conduct, and they expressly disclaim any pur-
pose of presenting charges, or having any knowl-
edge or evidence of official misconduct on the part
of Judge Carpenter.
Your Committee, therefore, report that nothing.
so far as they learn, exists to suy the olclal
reputation of the Hon. R. B. Carpenter, and they
pray to be discharged from the further eonsidera-
tion of this matter.

Drsrnuor1vE FIRE IN CHEsrEn-A large hFe
occurred in the town of Chester on Sunday mora
ing last, destroying property to the value OF nj
teen or twenty thousand dollars. Three or four
buildings were consumed, including valuable
stocks of goodss and The Office of the Chester Rs-
porter. The progress of the fire was arrested by
demolisbing small wooden building. and it was
only by the most strenuous ,exertions that the
whole business portion of the town was saved from
the destructive element. "A goodly share OF ibe
,,ropsrty was covered by insurance, and we are

ANnw BANK FOR coLunnrA-The conespOn-

A NEW BANK FOR C0LUMBIA.-Ine coITeSpon-
dent of the Daily Republican writes:
For some time past new bank has been talked
Of and now il is almost an accomplished fact.
The merchants of Columbia have long been in
convcnienccd by the limited banking capital EN-
ployed here. While the business OF the city is as
large if not larger than before the war; there is
but small proportion of capital now in use.
The new project has for its movers the same par
ties who have purchased the Grecnville and Co.
lumbia Railroad. The corporate name of the bank
is to be the South Carolina Loan and Trust Com
pany. The charter, which has already been OBJ
tanned from the General Assembly, is very liber-
al one, and is identical to that granted the South
Carolina Improvement and Trust Company, and
us, amended so as to give them all the power
conferred ON banking institutions generally. The
capital stock is $500, 900 and is now all taken-a
large portion by capitalists in New York and
Pennsylvania.
1t is not known yet who will be the officers
Several persons high in official position here ore
talked Of
The bank WILL of course become the depository
of State funds, and all the business of The Blue
Ridge Railroad will pass through its channels.

THE BLUE RIDGE RAILROAD.

We make the following extract from the Colum-
bia correspondence of the Charleston Ne0s !:
1t will be recollected that the joint resolution
from the House providing for the appointment of
committee to investigate the affairs OF the Blue
Ridge Railroad, was, when it came into the Sen
etc, referred to the Railroad Committee of that
body which reported to-day, with IN accompany
ing letter from the president of the Blue Ridge
Railroad and recommended that the Senate should
not concur in the resolution, because the desired
information could be obtained in the annual re-
port of the company, which would be issued at an
early day, and that if the report was unsatisfac-
tory, the Senate could then appoint committee.
The letter is as follows:

ADMISSION OF VIRGINIA.

After much discussion in both Houses, the bill
admitting Virginia passed Congress on Monday
last, and has already become law, by the
signature of the President. The House of Rep
resentatives, soon after re-assembling, adopted a
bill admitting the State unconditionally, but the
Senate has imposed certain restrictions, of which
we are not fully advised. These were adopted
without amendment on being returned to the
House, by strict party vote.
