The Atlanta Constitution, speaking of
Senator Hill, SAYS:

The Atlanta Constitution, speaking of
Senator Hill, says:
He insists that he has been misrepresent-
ed by the press Of the State as to the silver
question, from his first published interview
in the Constitution to the present time; that
he never opposed the reconciliation of sill
yer, but on the other hand, has always been
in favor of it.
The Senator is evidently hedging.
Commenting on his course, the Mont
gemery Gala Advertiser, silver paper,
says:
AS wrongly as Mr.. Lamar acted he was
much more to be admired for his courage in
in .disobeying Instructions and voting
against the bill. than Mr.. Hill is for speak
ing against leaving Washington without
voting, being placed on the Record as
paired, denying the pair, and declaring that
if present he would have voted for the bill.
1t is an unpleasant rredieament for states
man to place himself in.

County last week, and resulted I'm the
election Of David J. Wilson, Sheriff; G.
II. Colt, School Commissioner Job
MaByok and Joseph Bush, County Com
missionefs, and Frank Lawrence Coro-
ner-ail Ropublicans--by an average ma.
jority of about N5. The Georgetown
Times announces that these men are to-
tally unfit for the offices to which they
have been elected, and that they will
be unable to give the bond required OF
them, and hence tho county will be freed
rom their sway. This election affords
another warning 70 the Democratic party
to keep together and maintain solid
organization.

The European War has been progress

The committee appointed to investi-
gate Corbin has proceeded vigorously
with its work. and the result of ita lahors
promises to give us at least one good, old
fashioned criminal trial in this State. If
itcan be shown, as alleged, that Corbin
paid of the Mackey House members for
voting for him, he is clearly guilty Of
bribery, for tho offehse is complete, al
though the Mackey House was not
legal House. The offer of o bribe Is
crime under our laws, and although
these men were nnt in legal House. yet
they were members OF the Legislature;
besides, there were Senators who were
sworn into the legal Senate. We hope,
at least, that he will be brought to trial,
and allow the courts 70 decide these ques-
items. There sra various ether charges
against him, and if man ever did de-
serve punishment he does. E's course
in South Carolina has been tyranuical,
corrupt end infamous. He has earned
his board for life in our State Penitentia-
ry q hundred times over, If he could be
dealt with according TO the equity of his
actions, and We believe the technical
rules of the law would compensate him
for his notorious public services (?) in
this State by lengthy term Of residence
IN our State prison. - ~.

FUTURE PUNISHMENT

The doctrine Of an eternal future pun
ishment of the wicked has been brought
TO- sudden prominence by the sermon of
Cannon Farrar, Of the English Church,
which we publish elsewhere, and to 8
greater or less extent it has occupied the
attention of the pulpita and the press of
the world. For our part we fail to per-
ceive any argument in the sermon al.
iuded to. 1t is In accordance with SEN
timent OF human nature, which loves to
pu, out OF consideration anything which
is ut variance to our pleasure, but, de-
spite lis pleasant theories and fine Ian
guage, We are compelled to acknowledge
that there Is total absence of reason in
it. The only point made is that the
word "Hell" is not in the original, which
is true, but, for that matter, none of the
English words of the Bible are in tho
original. The words of the Greek and
Hebrew express certain ideas, which are
translated into our language in the words
which represent thoge ideas, and it is Q
matter of very little consequence TO men
whether the place OF future punishment
Is called He'll or anything else, so long
as the Scriptures describe the state of the
wicked in the future world The sermon
Of DR.. Farrar is nothing moro nor less
than new edition of Universalism, anil
tho fact that Henry Ward Beecher has
endorsed his views gives It no additional
strength, for we would not be- surprised
If this questionable divine would find it
very agreeable to abolish tho institution
i Of future punishment. The pure and
good and exemplary ministers of oil
churches and denominations HEX! &c The
future punishment of the wicked, the
Bible clearly teaches it, and our con-
sciences strongly snbstantiate the teach
ing; hence neither the cause OF morality,
of religion nor of humanity would be
subserved by the inculcation of this
error, because it is palatable to men.

County, s. c., fought d duelInsar savan-

Harley was wounded In the right side, 80
that he is expected to die. The difficulty
originated over the municipal election
held there on the 7th inst, In which
these two gentlemen espoused different
sides. An alteration occurred between
them, and Mr.. Harley was called upon
to retract his offensive language, after
which he said 70 Fishburne:
"What l did mean to say was. that
you and w. j. Fishburne are veal. AMI

out their brains or courage, and most
positively and emphatically decline to
withdraw anything that l said on that
occasion"
After some preliminary correspondence
Mr.. Fishbu.ne replied:
~ demand that you meet me at the
junction Of the Gulf and Savannah and
Charleston Railroads tomorrow, (Satur-
day. the 18th instant, at half-past IL
o'clock. to give me satisfaction for the
insult offered. My friend, Mr. VIM. M.

We hope the Legislature will at It's
present session pass joint resolution
submitting to vote Of the people Of the
State an amendment to the Constitution
providing for meetings of the Legisla-
ture once in two years, instead of an
nually, and limiting tho session to sixty
days, with q compensation to its mcm-
bers of three dollars per day end mileage
for one trip at The lhte of five cent? per
mile. The adoption of such an amend
ment would save the State very large
amount of money, besides ensuring, we
believe, just as good laws as we now have.
If such change should be adopted the
time Of service in the Legislature should
be changed from two to four years, and
it would also be we'll to elect oil State
and County. officers the same period, 30
as to avoid such frequent political ex-
elements, which would add materially
to tho substantial prosperity of our citi-
zens. This subject is well worthy of the
attention of our lawmakers.

One of the first things the Legislature
sho1ld turn its attention I'd 10 the settle
ment of tho question of reviving the lien
law. In our opinion the re-enactment
Of this law is necessity to prevent abso-
lass ----ant, If not starvation, amcng the
poorer people of the State. The law
should be re-enacted as it formerly stood
for one year, and there should be en- ad-.
ditional clause in It allowing persons to
give lien for the year 1879 for limited
amount over the rent of land, say sixty
dollars to each horse worked. Thus the
lew would be gradually abolished, and
would produce very little shock or hard
chip compared to what must follow it's
absolute abolition at this time.
