4 New FENCE LAVA bill has
been introduced in the House by Mr..
Joseph Crews of Laurens, which pro
vides for complete alteration Of our
present fence law-making it the du-
ty Of the farmer to fence up his stock,
and cattle, and not to fence out his
own and his neighbors. The census
Of 1850 shows that tho cost of the
fencing then existing i'll this State
amounted to $16,0G0,O0O, and four
filths of this sum would be saved by
q law requiring every man to fence
up his stock. A law Of this kInd has
proved very beneficial in Virginia,
and would add incalculably to the
value of our own landed interests.
1t is worthy Of a trial.

TIE ELECTION OF UNITED STATES
SENATOR.

This election came off as previously
announced on Tuesday 10th inst, and
resulted in tho election Of John j..
Patterson, who received seventeen
votes in the Senate on the second
ballot, and seventy-three in the

ARREST OF SENATOR Patterson
John J. Patterson, the Senator elect,
was arrested at four o'clock on Tues
day evening, 10th inst, in the First
National Bank, Of Columbia, by Jas.
\. Beatty, a United States deputy
marshal, deputizcd as q constable for
this occasion The arrest was, made
upon a warrant issued by Trial JUS
tice r. II. Kirk, upon the affidavit of
NJ. S. Miller, member Of the House
of Representatives from Fairfield,
charging Patterson with bribing him
to vote for Patterson for Senator.
He was taken to Kinks Office, and
after some disturbance there, he
walked away. He was re-arrested
soon after upon another warrant from
Kirk by special constables Hendricks
and Hernandez, who also had in their
possession commitment to the coun-
lty iail for twelve hours for his al
!edgcd contempt oil court this after,
noon. Worthington was also arrest
ed upon a warrant and affidavit
charging bribery. Both were taken
to Kinks office, which was found
closed. Hendricks then took Patter-
son, accompanied by q large con-
course Of friends and spectators, to
the county Jail, where he was turned
over to the Sheriff Of Richland.
Hardly had this been done, however,
when special constable canton ap-
pcared on the scene, with a writ of
habeas corpus, issued by Judge
Mackcy at chambers in the Columbia
Hotel, and rcturnable the same even
ing at ten o'clock, before Judge
Mackcy, at improviscd chambers over

Expenditure and Taxation.

': The enormous expenditures OF
I, the present State Government com,
.,5pared; with the wise economy o1
ante belh1aa days, can be made ap'
parent by a simple statement OF
figures. Before the war, and ever
as late as 1867, the current expenses
of the State Government did no
exceed 100000, yet the exhibit O.
the last fiscal year, as taken from
the Treasurer's books, shows that
over 100000 have been received
and that there is still deficiency ol
more; than S1,250,000. In other
words, the cost of the State Gov
eminent for the fiscal year ending
31st October 1872, is s2,05O,O00.
..,s The largest item in the expendi-
lures is the charge for Legislative
expenses. Before the war, the cost
Of a Legislative session was S4o,-
900, yet, during the last year there
have been paid out under this head
s541 ,267, and we are informed by
the Governors message, that the
Outstanding pay certificates amount
to $4,000. The grand total then,
is. 1851, ,267, exclusive of the charges
:, for current and permanent print
ing. Even according to the liberal
. estimate of $500, for the pay and
mileage of each member, the cost
!, of a. session should not have ex-
], ceeded 500, 800, and the difference
between this sum and that above
F, lgiven,it would be difficult to ac,
count for legitimately.
It is proposed to raise for the
expenses of the present fiscal year,
and the DEFICIENCIES of the last, the
! sum of 2,250,000, which will re.
serife a9tax of fifteen mills on the
dollar, estimating the yalns of the
property Of the State at S150,000,-
900. But, according to the Comp
!; troller- Generals report, as urged
> by our friend of thes Carolinian, the
estimated value of this property is
a's184, 100000, and the proposed tax
: would raise five hundred thousand
dollars more than seems to be designed
) blythe General Assembly.
s;gsome of our Georgia exchanges
are instituting a comparison be-
tween the financial condition of the
two States, very much to the advan-
tage of their own State. They es-
innate the cost Of the State Gov
ernment to the white Georgians
last year at $3.50 per head, and to
the white Carolinians, about sS.35,
and look upon our condition as
somewhat desperate. The only
hope for us is in reduction of the
expenditures, and in this all prop
:. ! e9rty-holders, be they Democrats Or
8 Republicans, are equally interested.
The question is not one of party,
but of existence itself, Of solvency
or bankruptcy, Of life or death.

vices will commence in Trinity

The religious journals are drawing
the attention, especially of the chill
dren, to this day of prayer, "in the
earnest hope that they will make es'
pecial efforts to attend the public ser.
vices, so that their fervent supplica'
tons may be united with those Of
grown people. Some may not be able
to leave their schools or their work
and some will be kept at home by
sickness, but all can find time and
opportunity, if they have the desire,
to ask God. in secret, to send forth
more laborers into the Missionary
field Thousands and tens of thous.
