cy, and to the laws OF the United States. Ter
ritorial officers, however, have been found
who are willing to perform their duty In q
spirit ofjustice and with due sense sof the
necessity OF sustaining the majesty of the law.
Neither polygamy nor any other violation OF
existing statutes will be permitted within the
territory of the United States. II is not with
the religion of the splf.styled Saints that we
are now dealing, but with their practices:
They will be projected in the worship OF God
according to the dictates OF their consciences,
but they will not be permitted to violate the
laws under the cloak of religion. It may be
advisable for Congress to consider what, 10
the execution of the laws against polygamy, Is
to he the status OF plural wlfes aud their of
spring. The propriety OF Congress passing ar
enabling act, authorizing the Territorial Leg
isature Of Utah to legilimatize all children borr
prior TO time fixed in the oct might be jnsti
fed by Its humanity To- these Innocent child

COLUMBIA, S. c., December 5.
A considerable amount Of Work was accom-
plished to-day in each Of the TWO Houses Of
the Legislature, the Senate making quite an
inroad into Its calendar of unfinished busi-
ness, and the members Of the House intro
1hcing large number of bills before they
gave themselves up to the fervent fascination
of their combined TRADE against the Cover
nor. The formal transactions of the Senate
have already been reported by telegraph, and
there was little in its proceedings that calls
for special comment. The usual number OF
little tiffs were INDUCED in, mostly for effect,
the principal eombatants to-day being Leslie
AN Whitsemore, assisted by Nash, who de-
plored the personalities In which the Senate
indulged, and remarked, with truth, that the
great hobby Of that body appeared to be sin
vestigation," and 1t was even not success in
that. Mr.. Hayne exhibited no small amount
of rancor In the remarks with which he
moved to indefinitely postpone the incorpora-
ton of the Carolina Rifle Club Of Charleston,
and he attacked in a general way the fire
companies OF Charleston for having or ganized
as military companies. Some display Of feel
ing was also made over the resolution to re-
peal the right of the Governor to leave the
State, but apparently to but little effect, as
the resolution was finally sent to the judiciary
committee instead OF being put upon its
passage.
In the lower house matters were little
more lively. Alter the formal business OF the
day was disposed Of, as already reported by
telegraph, the House went into committee Of
the whole on the Governors message, the at
tack being led by whipper, Of Beaufort. in q
strongly denunciatory speech. he reviewed
the financial exhibit embodied in the message;
charged the Executive with violating the Con-
stitution OF the State and his oath of office;
pronounced the message itself confirmation
of the thoueand and one rumors of peculation
and fraud, and of which reputation would be
the logical sequence, and, finally, he wander
ed of to incoherent illusions to the Ku.Kux,
declaring that the government was failure,
