bill to declare martial law in certain
Counties came up for consideration and
caused some earnest debate. The bill
was sustained by Jones, of Georgetown,
and opposed by Crittenden. O'Connell,

O'Connell remarked, in the course of
his speech, that it was n noticeable fact
that the farther from danger the mem

support Of this bill; but that those who
lived near by, and who would have to
bear the consequences of any illadvisetl
action in the matter, were not SO anxious
to have their throats cut and wholesale

the case should the Legislature declare

eeurvIver's Associntion.--Fxollo or the
South Carolina Dead.


The Survivors, Association OF South
Carolina propose to publish ROLL of
those who died or were killed in the late
war between the States-the said roll to
be published in two editions. The first
will be published Immediately, and will
contain about IL, 600 names. The second
edition will follow in about eighteen
months, and is designed to embrace such
corrections and additions as may be sug-
gested. It is thought that 5000 names
will be added to the list in the second
edition. The voting population Of South
Carolina, in 1860, was $4,000. Thus it
will be seen that more than one-ffth of
the voting population of South Carolina
fell in the war that the State inaugurated.
Subscriptions are now invited in the sum
of $500 for the publication of the roll
$3.50 of the said sum to be paid on the
delivery Of copy Of the first edition OF
the work, and $3.50 on the delivery of
the second amended edition.
We have been requested to say that
lists have been left at the Carolina Ma
tional Bank, at the Citizens Savings
Bank, at Mr.. Swafficld's, at Mr.. Hopes,
at Messrs. Wells & Caldwell's, and with
Col. A. @. Haskell, at the Office of
Messrs. Pope & Haskell.

The argument now cited against tho
Democrats for opposing the San Do
mingo purchase is ut best but weak
one. If, as alleged, the policy of that
party has always been heretofore in favor
of territorial acquisition, it only aimed
ut contiguous territory, and at countries
from geographic and climatic situations
likely to rival our own in productions.
Besides this, good Judgment was invari-
ably exercised in such schemes. as the
worth Of Louisiana, Florida, Texas, Cal
ifornia. Utah and Arizona, all abundant
ly testify. II will hardly be claimed that
the acquisition of Alaska has yielded
such advantages, and taking that as a
specimen, the San Domingo affair ap-
pears far from promising. Sensible
statesmen all hold that at time when
England is striving to get rid Of her
West India colonies after prolonged
experience, it seems like treading back
ward in the path Of progress for us to
acquire them.-Ne,0 Orleans Times.
