List OF The Acts Approved by the
Governor.


Governor,
CuARLEsroN, Dec. 20, 1873.
Editors o. the Register:
The legislature is hard at work clos
ing up matters and preparing for ad-
journment on Monday next. The mem-
bers of both houses are anxious to get
away and are working day and night
to accomplish this desirable end. More
work has been done in the last two
weeks than during any month before.
A good deal OF i'll feeling has sprung
out OF q party given at the residence OF
Mayor Snyder, on Thursday night, and
the Delegates from the upper portion ot
the State are grumbling at the manner
q which they were snabbed and given
to understand that they must take back
aests in the Democratic temple, leaving
the irrepressible Third District TO de-
termiue for herself and 10y herself
What meat the Democratic
party Of the State shall ieed on. Mr..
Snyder, it is pretty well known aspires
TO be Frank Herefords successor, and
is disposed TO take himself by the back
ofthe neck and seat Of the psntsloons
and lit himself into a seat in Congress
A majority OF the Democratic members
Of the FIRST District who were thought
TO be willing to keep their District
Democratic, and were willing to vote to
attach Braxton county TO the District,
were entirely ignored in the distribu-
ton OF invitations, and it was then and
there determined that the Third DIE
trict would run the machine itself. The
next morning, as l stated yesterday, the
proposition 10 annex Braxton was kill
ed and the gentlemen who advocated
reconsideration were treated decidedly
uncour,eously. This arrogant assump-
ton on the part OF those who could not
to-day hold position but for the hard
work done by those whom they are now
disposed to snub. has notresulted in cre-
sting the best OF feeling,
Yesterday the Senate passed q bill
authorizing the trustees OF Berkeley
Syringe 10 borrow money for the inn
provement Of the Syringe on mortgage.
It s thought the House will agree.
