COMMUNICATED.

MIR. Editor.-We have always been
in favor of Improvements, enterprise
aud good laws, tor they in most all
cases enhance the value of property, pro-
tect health, and, benefit the community
generally. Our intention in this CON-
muuication is to make few observations
upon. and in regard 10 the acts of our
nresent honorable city Council. We
are of the opinion that our present
Council, is the best We have had tor
some time, they certainly made a move
in the right direction when they pro-
posed to prepare Code OF laws for the
government of the Corporation, aud We
were glad to see them carry the same
into effect at their last meeting.
In regard to the consistency OF the
Councils actions on some OF the ordl-
nances reported, and not adopted, we
reserve our right TO express our oPin-
ion. The first that comes under our
observation is this ; that our worthy
Council have by mandatory provisions,
made it misdemeanor for any one to
ride or drive through our streets at
specified speed, (now this is all right, and
we do not make the least objection to
the propriety of the act), but in almost
the same breath, they refused to pass a
law to prevent riding or driving OF any
kind upon our pavSments; and as the
law now stands, you can not prosecute
any one for such All offence.
Now, Mr.. Editor, | woulI like to
know the use of law, compelling per-
sons not 10 ride or drive fast through
the streets OF our town, when they
grant them the privilege of driving on
the pavements. The reason as we I'M
derstand, for refusing TO pass such law
was, that i. prevented some persons
the use of the pavements. We think
there should be no discrimination but
if they make the shoe 10 'pi"ch one
mans foot, let it 'pinrh' the others also.
They also refused 10 protect our
shade trees from The damage done them,
by the hi,ching of horses TO them, on
the grounds that they were net public
property; we think they are puollc
property, and are of a healthful benefit
to the town, and should be protected
by Corporation ordinances.
The last one we notice, and which
they refused to make penalty for, is
that Of persons allowing their horse or
horses. to stand on the streets for 6 or
10, and some times ID hours, without
attention. This ordinance or resolution
is one humane principle, aud should
have been adopted, tor we know OF
some instances where parties have LETT
their horses hitched to our racks all
night, in the worst kind of weather.
We hope our Council will reconsid-
or It's action on these important ordi-
nanccs, and that they will enforce those
they have already adopted, and we shall
then see a marked improvement in our
town. The laws as passed will we un-
derstand soon be published in full, aud
then all can Judge for themselves OF
their propriety.

CHAMBERLAIN or SorTH CARoLISA.
The New York Herald publishes an
interesting interview which one of It's
reporters has had with ex-Gov. Cham
berlain, of South Carolina, who has now
taken up his residence in New York.
The Ex-Governor candidly confessed
that he found all his efforts at reform
blocked by the republican politicians !;
that he could not find in bis own party
men fit to appoint TO important offices,
and that the white republicans oil the
State were on the whole worse than the
blacks. He speaks very respectfully Of
Gen. Hampton, and says he believes be
will endeavor 10 make good and hon.
est government, so far as its financial
and practical departments are concern
ed. Mr.. Chamberlain SAYS he looked
upon the ignorance and inexperieDce OF
the masses of the republican party in
South Carolina as one of the inherent
and great difficulties in the political
problem. He was under The political
necessity of making appointments to OF
fee from party which, IS a rule was
not able 10 furnish competent officers to
support the government. The Difficult
". he saws, was that a majority Of those
who undertook 10 lead the republican
party in South Carolina made profess
sion of politics, and lived accordingly.
Upon the subjec. of the resources of
South Carolina SIR Chamberlain says
he has never entertained doubt. Her
resources be speaks of as almost indie
scrihable, and her facilitiesfor production
and manufactures absolutely unsurpass-
ed.

YHE DIFFERENCE.

When the carpet-bsggers bad full
possession of the Southern States there
was perpetual trouble and commotlon
down there. Society was in sort OF
volcanic condition, with outbreaks inn
m;nent at all times. The colored peo-
pie were kept in state of alarm about
their real or imaginary rights, and bust
ness generally was brought to stand
still. Now mark the change. The
State governments are in the hands OF
those who are capable of enforcing Or
der, and there is peace and contentment
cverywh here. There is no alarm and
there is no turbulence. No soldiers are
needed to preserve the peace. busl-
ness has generally been resumed. The
colorcd people have returned to the
fields, and the future promises abun-
dance for all. The credit of the States
(Which had gone down to pretty low
ebb) is being restored, and their bonds,
from present indications, will soon be
NJ mar in all the stock exchanges of the
country. Thus the prophecies of the
scallawags and political croakers that,
these States would 60 to the "demnition
bow.woys" if wrenched from their
hands are shown to be worthless, and
the people are reaping the benefits of a
real and genuine pacilication.

D1- The SroRM-The storm which
passed over and around our town on
Sunday evening last, was one OF the
most terrific that we have had for some
time, doing considerable damage. The
most violent part of the storm, that do
ing the most damage, was north OF
town, The hail destroyed for MIR. w,
II. Lemen about so acres of wheat,
cutting it off the same as if reaper
had dons it. Mr.. David Billmyer's
wheat suffered TO considerable extent;
his dwelling house on the farm had bro
ken out of it by the hail some 80 or
more window lights; his fences, sheds,
&c, were blown down and washed
away, and his orchard was stripped by
the hail of its leaves and blossom, thus
effectually destroying the fruit upon bis
farm, which from appearances would
have been abundant. His loss he esti-
males 10 be between $500 and $1,000,
Dir. w. A. Marshall had head of sheep
drowned, besides considerable damage
done to his crop by the hail. The
wheat on the farms of Mr.. Lorenzo
Etchison, and I. 7. Chaplinc, deceased,
was also destroyed by the hail, as well
as clover, fruit, &c. Most all the farms
from the Neck to town were more or
less damaged. Mr.. John Keplipger
had fine calf to drown, and MIR. VIM.
Weise had a valuable COW killed by
lightning. The upper end of town was
to some extent ovelhowed by water,
which could not be carried off fast
enough by the culverts, doing consider
able damage TO the gardens. The hail
stones varied in size from hen egg to
a pea. As well as we can hear, we do
not think there was much damage done
below town. We have no idea Of the
exact amount of damage done, but be-
lleve it TO be considerable.

OUR WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 10 1877.
Ohio's great statesman, Tom Ewing,
got himself out of his dilemma by ac,
cepting 9 substitute for his anti-re
sumption bill. With his own measures
On the Speakers table he Can neither
go forward or back ward as his stupidity
Ind efIectually put it isto chancery.
But the substitute went into the Com
IDittee of the Whole, and Thomas is a
wiser II not sadder man. Hereafter
he will not 80 pompously inform the
Speaker that he does not intend to per
nit amendment or he will take more
c,re t. avoid Dogberry's quandary rs
to proper name. The new bill will
be discussed at length prior TO being
put upon its passage, for the deb te
already had upon it shows that there
are mems ers / a the House utterly un-
willing TO resume upon any basis, and
are Determined that no test shall be
made Of the governments ability to
resume. Mr.. Sherman Is positive that
ne can resume without the slightest
detriment TO the country, provided
some little favorable legislation is give q
him.l But this he csnnOt obtaip from
the House for it now seems evident
