The Presidents Message.

The supplement accompanying this issue con-
tains the Presidents message and synopsis
of the moro important reports Of the heads Of
departments Of the Government Of the United
States. This supplement is expensive to us
but we trust our readers will accept it as an
evidence Of our determination to keep them
fully informed Of all important events.
The message Of President Hayes, with ono or
two exceptions, will be found satisfactory. His
views temperately expressed, upon suffrage in
the South, will arrest attention. He makes
assertions that will be hard for him to prove,
and, until tho proof is forthcoming, his candor
will be Of a sad discount We agree with the
President, however, in saying that the laws
should be enforocd; but their enforcement in
Massachusetts and New York is just as essential
as in the South.

FROM COLUMBIA.

The Legislature is proceeding quietly and
efficiently in the discharge Of its duty. Tho
members hope to bs abio to adjourn by Christ
mas, but this Is by no means certain. The
session, however, will be short one.
The House by vote Of 98 to l8 refused TO
,adopt resolution, looking to the cali of q con-
,yantion Of the people Of the State. This was
timely and wise. Gov. Hampton and Lieutenant
Governor Simpson have been installed privately
for second term, Gov Hampton being unable
ITO leave his room. simpson is still acting as
,,oyesnor.
The attempt of General Gary and others to
sre-open the settlement Of the public debt
cannot be, productive of any good. There are
difficulties on all sides of the question, and no
law or arrangement on the subject can bc per-
.,feated that ywll give entiro satisfaction. In
1debtedness, public or.priyate, is an evil. There
are, however, but two practical ways out of
snch difficulties: One is payment and The other
is reppdiation. We are opposed TO repudiation

We are indebted to Gen. s. McGownn for n
Handsomely printed copy of the tributes Of
respect paid to the memory Of Judge David
Lewis Wardlaw, of Abbeville, by the bar, the
Judges and the officers of the Supreme Court
of tho State, and of the United States Court.
The pamphlet bears the imprint of Wilson &
Benet and does credit to their press. The
memorial prepared by tho committee appointed
by the Supreme Court of the State is bcaut-
fol, just and true; and nothing that we could
add would weigh feather in tho high csti-
nation in which the memory Of Judge Ward-
low is held, not only by the bar and courts,
but by the people of the whole State.
