We have late copy of the Pensacola
Gazette, which gives Sheriff Hutchinson
and his deputy credit for tho arrest OF
Har'lin, and which states that Hardin
was turned over to the Texas officers
only when he arrived at the line divid>
ing Florida and Alabama. How true
all this is, we do not undertake to say,
only we know the arrest would never
have been made but for the energy and
intelligence of the Texan officer, who
tracked the blood-stained desperate to
his lair in the swamps of Florida.

Patterson in Court.

WASHINGTON, October 1.-THE case of
tho State Of South Carolina VS.. John. j.
Patterson was called to day before Judge
Humphreys, of tho District Court. Gen
James Conner, Attorney General of the
State, and Mr.. Jam 3 Lowndcs appeared
| for the State of South Carolna, aud NIessrs.
! Shellabargcr, Cook and Pelham for Senator
| Patterson. The dofence of Senator Patter.
son, as stated in the pleadings, rests on the
| following grounds: First, that Hampton is
not Governor; second, that there was no
legal court, no legal grand jury, and no duly
elected Judge; third, that Chief Justice
Willard, who ordered the special term, was
not the legal Chief Justioe) fourth, that tho
General Assembly which appointed the
committee OF investigation was illegal fifth,
that Chief Justice Willard, Judge Kershaw
and tho grand jury conspired against the
rights und liberty of Patterson, aud that the
indictments were tho results of tho conspl
racy; sixth, that he was not fugitive from
justice; seventh, that tho Constitution only
allowed State to demand fugitive from
State, and that the District of Columbia
not being a State tho Constitution did
not apply, and tho act Of Congress author
izing tho Chief Justice to surrender fugi-
tives was unconstitutional and void. No
exemption on tho ground of Senatorial
privileges was claimed on account Of tho
indictments being statutory, which takes
tho case out of the constitutional exemption
After tho papers were rcad, Gen. Conner
requested tho instruction of tho Court as to
who would be entitled to tho opening and
reply After argument by Messrs. Shclla..
bargcr, Cook aud Conner, the Court decided
that tho State of South Carolina was actor
and entitled to the opening and reply. The
Court further stated that in view of tho
Importance of the case it would require full
argument, which tho engagements Of the
Court would not permit this week. Attor--
noy General Connr stated that his official
engagements would prevent his attendance
next week. Tho case was fixed for tho
3lst.

WALuALLA SOUTH CAROLINA THURSDAY, OCTOBER 25 1877

In Order that our industries may bo prop.
erly represented at the exhibition, an aporo
priation will be needed for the payment of
salaries and expenses of commissioners, for
the transportation Of goods, aud for other
purposes in connection with the object in
view, and as May next is the time fixed for
the opening Of the exhibition, if our citizens
are to share the advantages of this interna-
tlonal competition for tho trade of othcr
nutlons, the necessity Of Immediate action is
apparent.
10 enable tho United States to co.operate
with the International Exhibition which
was held at Vienna ii 1873, Congress then
passed joint resolution making an appro-
prlatlon of 100000, and authorizing the
President to appoint certain number of
Praot'oal artisans and scientific men who
seoold attend the exhibition, and report
their proceedings and observations to him.
Piovision was also made for the appointment
of number of honorary commissioners.
have felt that prompt action by Congress,
il accepting the invitation by the govern.
ment of France, is of so much interest to tho
people of this country, so suitable to preserve
the cordial relations existing between the
government of the two countries, that the
subject might properly be presented for
attention at your present session.
The government Of Sweden and Norway
has addressed on official invitation to this
government to take part in the international
Prison Congress to be held at Stockholm
next year The problem which Congress
proposes to study, how to diminish crime, is
one in which all civilized nations have an
interest in common, and the congress of
stockholders seems likely to prove the most
important convention ever held for tho study
of this grave question. Under authority
of joint resolution of Congress, approved
February 10th, 1875, commissioner was
appointed by my predecessor to represent
tho United Suites upon that OCCASION, aud
the Prison Congress having been, at the
earnest desire of the Swedish Government,
postponed until 1873, his commission was
renewed by me. An appropriation of
$4,000 was made in tho sundry civil service
net of 1875 to meet the expenses Of the
commissioner. recommend the recap
preparation Of that sum for the Same pur.
posc-the former appropriation having been
covered into the treasury, aud being no
longer available for this purpose, without
further action by Congress. The subject is
brought to your attention at this time in
view of circumstances which rendcr it
highly desirable that the commissioner
should proceed to the discharge of his i'm.
portant duties immediately.
AS several acts of Congress, providing for
detailed reports from different departments
of the government, require their submission
at the beginning Of tho regular annual ses.
sion, | defer until that time any further
reference to the subjects of public interest.
