supposed act of the Legislature several
counties of the State issued bonds for

for several years. 1t was finally dis
covered that there was nothing on the
Senate records to show the bill au-
thorizing the bonds had passed that body.

THERE rs JOY IN SOUTH CAROLINA.
chamberlain threw up the sponge yes
terday, and retired from the State House
in Columbia. South Carolina now re-
joices under a Governor chosen by the
votes of her people instead of by orders
from Washington.
The telegraph tells us there is joy in
South Carolina over this new birth of
Liberty; and we'll it may. There is also
Joy in the whole country. The chains
which bound the State are thrown off
without the shedding of blood. 1t is a
step that strengthens the States, and
weakens the Government, and increases
the hope that our war machinery will
finally be laid aside without any further
attempts to subdue the civil power, and
holda corrupt party in power by Federal
bayonets.
This will give confidence to every ac-
tive business man in the country. 1t
will do more to advance trade and COM
merce than hundred bills in Congress
for tinkering the currency in vain efforts to
bring greenbacks to par. Gold would
sink in price tomorrow if the President
were to order the troops out of New Or
leans and recognize the Nichols govern

that President McCosh, of Princeton
College, has appointed a Board of Ex-
aminers in Louisville, KY, who will sit
in that city to enable young men there
who propose to join this college to ascer-
tain their eligibility without the expense
of visiting Princeton upon an uncertainty.
This is new and excellent feature in
tie practice of our Eastern colleges.
Harvard, and Princeton have already es-
tablished examining boards at Chicago
and st. Louis, but this is the first instance
in which a college of the first rank has
gone SO far South. 1t is said that from
