The government OF spain is now sunclently

In favor of a bill to provide for the redemp'
ton of certain lands sold under the orders OF
General E. R. S. Candy; bill requiring the
funds OF the State to be deposited in the vaults
of the Statehouse, and payments therefrom TO
be made over the counter OF the treasurer's 3
office, and bill to provide for, per diem and
mileage, which appropriates s150,000 for cur
ent expenses and 100000 for last winters de-
ficiencies.
The following bills and notices were intro
duced:
By Wilkes, q bill to further provide for the
administration of derelict estates.
By Ferguson, notice of a bill calling in State
bonds and stocks.
By Eerlan, notice of bill to incorporate the
Grand Division of Sons of Temperance CT
South Carolina.
By Simons, bill to authorize the erection Of
a new courthouse in Rlchland County. and
petition Of citizens of Columbia asking the
sale of the old courthouse lot.
The most important bill introduced was one
by Bosemon, to incorporate the Edisto, Cav
cav and Waties' Greek Canal Company. The
incorperators named 10 the bill are Timothy
Hurley, R. n. Cain, ]. D. Wetherlee, D. Riker,
John G. DawsiDg, B. A. Bosemon, A. j. Ran
eier, aud others. Authority is granted to sell
lumber, dig phosphates on their own lands,
and dig out and complete navigable water
course from the Edisto River to the Ashley
River; they may also convey fresh water to
Charleston by such means as they may deem
best, and at such time as may be most practi-
cable; they are authorized to impose such q
toll on vessels, boats, RATS and barges as may
be deemed proper for the use OF the canal.
The capital stock of the company Is fixed at
$500, 1000.
The rest of the session until three o'clock
was occupied with debate upon the Senate
bill to regulate the granting of divorces. 1t
was curious to remark the number OF mem
bers who had discovered all at once that this
was most Ubiquitous and improper measure,
and.it was amusing to listen TO their denun-
Citations thereof, The denunclatory arguments
being drawn apparently from the recent edi-
toriaI in The NEWS. Prominent among lis
opponents was one Bowley, who quoted the
the Levtical law upon the subject, and thun-
dered The terrors of Mount Sinai upon the un-
happy members and House, who were com.
PEELED to listen. Finally, the bill was killed
BY the passage by vote OF forty-seven TO
forty-four of a motion to eliminate It's enact
ipg clause, and this circumstance must be &C.
cepted as encouraging, since 1t shows that the
House Is capable of at least o momentary
spasm of decency, when melted thereto BY the
remarks of an Intelligent opposition Journal.

ORIGIN OF THE ILLNESS.
An Authoris ntive, n tfutationo ofIdle Ru.
mors-Thc Opening Symptoms.
irrnrn the I.ondon Times. Noremher "a.

From the London Times, November 29.l
The illness of his Royal Highness the Prince
of Wales Is understood to date from his recent
visit to Lord Londesborough. Typhoid fever is
known to be zymotic fever, arising usually
from q poison generated by sewage. The
more severe effects of this poison are to pro-
duce the fever; Its minor effects are to inouce
less seriou, forms of constitutional disturb
apce. Several Of the members of the distin-
guIshed parry assembled at Lord Londes-
Dor, uehis house, which is In the neighborhood
OF Scarborough, have suffered more or less Sc
verely from such symptoms. Lord Chester
field. we regret to learn, has since his return
home been attacked with typhoid fever In q
very severe form. The symptoms declared
them selves somewhat later than was the case
with his Royal Highness the Prince Of Wales,
but the attack is apparently more severe.
Turning to the bulletins which have been re-
ceired from SandrDg ham, We are reluctantly
obliged TO admit that, while afording the full
est scope for well founded expectations of a
happy termination, they are such as still TO give
grounds for anxiety. The attack from the first
was sharp, and we know that when royal
bulletin announces in guarded terms that the
fever is strong and The nights are unquiel,
this Implies that there Is more or less OF deiri-
um, and that the affection is acute. IL is
understood that 1t has been 80 with his Royal
H ghness. On the other hand, there are good
and the most encouraging anticipations in the
fact that the fever has now reached the six
teenth day without any Oi those complications
which constitute the real danger OF typhoid,
far more than the uncompicated disease itself,
even in its strongly developed types, Again,
although yonth Is not go marked an advantage
for !ht patient in this disorder as 10 It's cog
nate affection, typhus, yet 1t counts for some.
thing, and as tar as its influence goes, incllnes
the balance always toward happy, speedy
and upimpeded recovery. tits important to
remember that thls fever belongs TO the class
which have slated periods of incubation, vary
ing very considerably 1t is true, and fixed
course OF days through which they run; In
very mild case satisfactory termination
miSht be expected In twenty-one days; we'll
marked attack such as this cannot be expected
10 terminate favorably before the twenty
fourth or ty-eighlh day. OF 1t may be lit
tie later. Thus, then, bulletins of more or less
grave or doubtful character may be expected,
from the nature of the malady, for perhaps
ten days or a fortnight longer, and 1t is well
TO know this before hand, inasmuch as 1t will
tend to prevent undue anxiety and alarm.
