In THE SENATE, Mr. Cannon introduced
bill to authorize the County Commissioners Of
the several counties to hire out convicts..
Bill to require the Boards Of County Com
missioners throughout the State to apportion
taxes, annually, for county purposes, amongst
the specific objects for which said taxes are
levied bill to reduce the pay of County Com.
missioners and their clerks; aud bill to re-
duce and fix the per diem and mileage of the
members of the General Assembly, were
passed and sent to the House of Representa-
tives. -.-...t '--..
The judiciary committee, on the House
resolution, to 60 into an election on Tuesday,
9th, for Chief Justice, reported first That
said resolution is not in due form, and fur
ther, is defective in that it does not provide,
as required by the Constitution, that the elec-
ton shall be by joint vote and that the elec-
tion called for in said resolution is for an un-
expired term, when, in the opinion of the
committee, it should be for full term of six
years. The committee recommend the fol.
lowing as substitute: .... ....
Resolved BY the Senate of South Carolina, the
House of Representatives concurring, That the
two houses shall meet in joint assembly on Tues
day next, the 9Th of May, at o'clock p. M, for
the purpose of electing Chief Justice of the Su.
preme Court of this State to fill vacancy created
by the death of the Hon. F. J. Moses, Sr.
Mr.. Crittenden moved to strike out the
words that the resolution is still further de-
fective, inasmuch as the election called for in
the said resolution is for an unexpired term,
when. in the opinion of the committee, the
election must, if held, be for the full term Of
six years" F.:
Mr.. Gary moved that so much ofthe report
as related to the tenure Of office of Chief JUS
tice be referred to the Attorney General for
bis opinion, and that the resolution be laid on
the table.
Mr.. Jeter moved for division Of the ques-
ton, and that the further consideration of the
report of the committee be indefinitely post
poned, with the exception of the accompany
ing resolution. Agreed to.
On the question of agreeing to the resolu.
ton, offered by the committee, the yeas and
nays were taken, and resulted as follows:
Yeas-Messrs. Bowen, Buck, Cannon, Counts,
Crttenden, Gary, Howard, Jeter, Livingston, j..
C. Maxwell, Todd, Witherspoon-l2.
Mavs-Messrs. Bird, Clinton, Cochran, Corwin,
Duncan, Greene, Johnston, H. J. Maxwell, Ny
ers, Nash Swails, Taft. Marley, Williarns-l4
So the Senate refused to agree to the reso-
luton.
Messrs. Cochran, Witherspoon, Taft, john
ston, and Others, gave notice that they would
present, to be entered on the journal, the rea.
son for their vote given on the question OF
agreeing to the above resolution.
IN THE HOUSE, Mr. Conner introduced
bill to repeal an act to establish certain State
scholarships in the South Carolina Universi-
ty also, a bill to declare and punish fraud in
the sale of produce also, a resolution that the
two houses meet in joint assembly at o'clock,

THE THEATRE.-AIiss Kate Claxton made
her debut before Richmond audience last
night as Louise, the blind girl, in the "Two
Orphans" The play is entirely sensa-
tional one, and we cannot say much for it,
though the situations and tableaux at the
end Of acts elected the applause Of the
spectators.
Miss Claxton, upon whom all thought and
eyes were centred gave genuine satistac-
tion in the rendition of her character. Her
personal charms, added to those OF the
actress, gave us much to admire in her per-
fermance, while her support was good.
The company with her is fair one, the
dresses on the occasion beautiful, and the
appointments in all particulars excellent,
while the acting made the play go off as
smoothly as possible. I" Henriette,' y
:. Countess de Linieries,' Marianne"
q The Frochards," !" s' Cheyalier Maurice de
Yaudrey," and .' Pierre" were particu-
aarly good.
Tonight Miss ClaXton appears again in
the 1.-TWO Orphans" and Tomorrow night
she will appear in Conscience" !" when we
will have an opportunity OF seeing her in
different line and in a character which has
given her great reputation. We hope to
see the Theatre well filled.

CoNsUMPTIyEs, TAKE NoTICE.-Eyery moment
of delay makes your cure more hopeless, and much
depends on the judicious choice Of remedy. The
amount of testimony in favor of DIR. scBENcFl's
PuLMoNIc SYRUP as cure for Consumption
far exceeds all that be brought to support the
pretensions of any other medicine. See Dr. Schencks
almanac, containing the certificates Of many per-
sons OF the highest rcspectability, who have been
restored to health after being pronounced incurabe
by physicians Of acknowledged ability. scHENcK's
PULMoNrc SYRUP alone has cured many, as these
evidences will show; but the cure is often promoted
by the employment Of two other remedies which
DR.. schenck provides for the purpose. These addi-
tional remedies are ScHENcK's SEA-WEED
TONIC and MANDRAKE PILLS. BY the timely use
of these medicines, according to directions, DR..
schenck certines that most any Of Consumption
may be cured. s
DIR. Schcuck is professionally at his principal Of
fec, corner Sixth and Arch streets, Philadelphia,
every Monday, where all letters for advice must be
addressed.

REV. J. WILLIAM JoNEs's RESIDENCE
BURNEp.-On Sunday night the policeman
on duty in the western part of the city,
while standing at the corner OF Belvidere
and Main streets, heard cries which he took
to be "Murder." Upon going to Grace
street, however, he discovered that the
three-story brick residence OF Rev. j. Will
liam Jones, D. D., situated at the corner of
Grace and Shafer streets, was on fire, and
that the cries originated from the ladies and
children who were escaping from the flames.
The officer had now TO retrace his steps to
Fire-Station 16, at the corner Of Pine and
Main streets, from which an alarm was
given, and with remarkable prompttude the
tiremen responded, attached their hose, and
were speedily ut work. They arrived in the
very nick OF time, for had they been two
minutes later Dr.. Barney's residence, next
! door TO DR.. Jones's- house, would probably
| have been destroyed.
DR.. Jones was absent. He had, accord
ing to custom, gone to Ashland on Saturday
| night to preach Sunday, and knew nothing
Of the tire until he reached the city yesterday
morning. Mrs. Jones, her sister. five chill
dren, and two young ladies were in the
house, and barely escaped. Indeed, they
ran out of the house in their night-clothes,
leaving all of their effects in the burning
building.
The fire originated, it is supposed, in the
kitchen from pan of hot ashes and live
Goals which had been placed upon Il table
near the framed studding, which became
ignited, and the flames spread upwards with
alarming rapidity, setting fire to the doors,
rear stairway, &c. r
The entire upper portion Of the house,
with the furniture, clothing, &C., was totally
destroyed. The parlor furniture was saved.
DR.. Jones's loss will be about $1,000; upon
which be has no insurance.
The dwelling is owned by Mrs. D. t.
Williams, the loss upon which is about
$4,000; insured for $1,000 with John II.
Montague g. Co.'s agency.
DR.. Barney speaks very highly OF the con-
duct Of the tiremen, their promptness, &C.,
and says had it not been for Company 3 his
house would probably have been burned.
