DIsaRAoKyUL SoKNEs.-Thei General
Assembly Of South Oatolina is on the
eve 9! closing i.s srdnous d1siss.s Y7) Its
protraoted sessions (e1tra and reanlar)
have been oventful in measures as
varied as the contents Of Pandora's
box; maby being of questionable cha
racter, as many more -oi Useless ex-
pense, and bnt few fruitful with good
to the State. There have been scenes.
too, that presented the humorous and
ridiculous character Of the Solons; but
"the last scene OF all, which closes
this strange eventful history" was the
shameful and indecorons proceedings
ut the session last evening.
a bill tn amend TIE Act relativa to
the pay of members was being. dis.
cussed, when "a colorcd member from
Orapgeburg-Abram Dannerly-.who
was. apparently. very much under tho
Influence of liquor, obtained the floor,
and used such improper language as to
force the Speaker repeatedly to call him
to order. This excited Dannerly's ire,
and increased his foul and harsh Ian
guage; when the Speaker was compelled
TO order the Sergeans.at Arms to remove
the offending member. That officer
being absent. Assistant Simons attempt
led to perform that duty, but was resist
Ied-Dannerly even drawing weapon.
Here arose scene OF confusion. Henry
Riley, another colored member, from
IOraDgeburg, went to the assistance of
Dannerly, and row at once ensued.
Members crowded around, desks and
chairs were upset. oaths and loud foul
nouthed expressions were to be heard,
and finally muscular member pushed
forward, seized one of the offending
members, and bore him by main force
out of the hall. Quiet was then restored.
Resolutions of censure and expulsion
were then introduced, the offenders
we're brought before the bar of the
House, and finally expelled-Ri by
vote OF &C to Al. and Dannerly II to 1S.
Mr.. Crittenden. one of the Conservative
members, attempted to excuse Danner-
ly, on the score of intoxication-stating
that he was usually very quiet and
peaceable man, but that the whiskey
demon had possession of him.. The
House, however, felt that the indiguity
was too great. md acted as above re-
corded.
