With but five days of the session remain
ing, the Senate Committee on Cities has re-
ported favorably the requirement bill. In its
present shape, it authorizes the repavement
of Fifth-ave. only from Fifty-ninth-st. to
Ninetieth-st., and of Seventh-ave. from
Eleventh-st TO Fifty-ninth-st The bill for the
restoration of Tompkins Square as park-a
good measure for the encouragement of riots in
that locality-has been ordered to third
reading in the Senate; also the bill beheading
the Commissioner Of Jurors. The Assembly
has killed the bill permitting remarrlage after
three years of good behavior, on the part of
persons divorced for adultery. The Assembly
Apportionment Committee has agreed to the
Senate amendments to the Apportionment bill,
but the approval of the Assembly is yet to
be secured.

Pennsylvania is disgusted with Mr. Randall. The
resolution to take up Mr.. Woods eccentric Tariff
bill Oh Wednesday, only prevailed by scattering
majority of one and If the Speaker had preclpltated
himself into the arena with the same eagerness to
vote which he has displayed whenever there was a
Republican TO be lifted out of the seat to which
he had been honestly elected. in order
to make room for fraudulent Democratic
member, Mr.. Wood and his bill would both
have been put out Of their misery at once.
Pennsylvania has made up her mind pretty posi-
lively as to the propriety of threatening trade and
commerce any longer with revolutionary tariff
schemes, and she fondy trusted that upon this cap
ital issue Mr.. Randall had nerve enough to hold
himself steady spite of his congenta propensity
to stradde. Bat Mr.. Randall failed her
when her need was sorest The plea that
his heart was melted with pity for
cral eminent economists who were struggling
to hold in fully developed speeches. is ingenious but
not satisfying. Better that Judge Kelley should
suffer the pangs of suppressed oratory, than that
the manufacturing interests of his constituents
should languish. The simple fact is, Mr. Ran
dali weakened: and unless Pennsylvania is troubled
with surplusage of tender mercies, she will blot
his name out of her list Of favorite sons.

If the statements of dealers in arms are
conclusive. no systematic preparations have
been made in this city for Communistic up
rising. These gentlemen are reported on
another page as despondent over the dulneSs
of their trade, and declaring that they have
sold no guns here. Orders from Illinois, where
they are making ready to meet the Commune
in its own way, and from California, where it
is proposed to rise up, after the manner of
Bill Nye, and swoop down on the heather
Chinee are the only lively features in a trade
to which even a small riot would be favor
to be thankfully received. 1t is reassuring
also to note that General Woodward, the In
spector- General of the National Guard, speaks
with the utmost confidence of the present
condition of the militia, and promises any
dlsturbers of the peace the warmest sort of
reception.

While no apology is necessary for the ex-
istence of the Honest Money League, objec-
tions have been raised, it seems, to any active
effort of the sort in the Northwest, both by
those who think it is unnecessary, and those
who think it is hopeless. A letter on another
page, which explains the purposes and methods of
the League, takes the view that neither Objec-
ton is sound. The initiation movement is too
powerful to be overlooked, and yet 1t is not too
powerful to be defeated The League is work
ing with an intelligent system, is gathering
about it many local leagues in Wisconsin and
Michigan, and is buckling on its armOr for
hard fight in the unregenerate greenback
States of Illinois and Indiana.

The Election Of ] Judges.

We commend to the considera-
ton Of those who think that the ju-
dicial Office should be bestowed as
a reward for political services, the
memorial Of the Greenville
bar, which we republish elsewhere.
1t may be proper to confer political
preferment for political services,
but to carry that doctrine into judi =.
cial elections would bo to ignore the
principles which underlay the judi
cial system of South Carolina in the
time when her Judges were at once
the pride of the State and the admi.
ration of the country. We trust
that the Legislature, in casting
about for Judge of the sixth cir~
cult, will send political enpediency
to tho dogs, and elect to the bench
some man who is intellectually and
morally fit for the position. To
select man simply on grounds of
policy would be MI injustice to the
entire people of the circuit, and
would be to declare that the
Democracy of South Carolina will,
for political ends, keep her judiciary
far below tho standard established
in the grand old times of Harper
and ONeale and Dunllin and Ingliss
and Withe1s and Aldrich and others
OF their stamp. Away with political
considerations in such an election |!

politics and too many politicians on
the bench. We wart no moro.

1t is now an acknowledged fact that
CONSUMPTION CAN BE CURED. It has
been cured in very great number
of cases (some Of them apparently
desperate ones) by Schenck's Pull
moric Syrup alone, and in others
by tho same medicine in connection
with Schonck's Sea Weed Tonic and
Mandrake Pills, one or both accord
ing to the requirements of the case.
The old supposition that 'sCon.
sumption is incurablo," for many
years deferred Physicians from at
tempting to find q remedy for that
disease, and patients afflicted with
it reconciled themselves to death
without an effort being made to save
them from doom which was con-
siderod inevitable.

at one time to be at the very gate of

New Counties.

That it is impossible to please
everybody has been long since dis
covered by the Legislature; but
wore there any lingering doubts on
tho subject they would be aispelled
by experience in only one matter,
the formation of new counties.
First Ninety-Six wanted to be q
county; then it was proposed to
establish the county of Butler; but
these propositions were over
whelmed with opposition. The
people of. northern Beaufort are
petitioning for q new county, which
is strenuously opposed by the peo-
pie along tho sea-coast. The latest
scheme to divide Charleston and
Colleton into four counties, Old
Charleston, Berkley, Edisto and
Colloton, seems not to satisfy any
ono exactly. In this dilomma the
Legislature must take such action
as seems proper. Charleston al
least should be severed. The idoa

WHILE We DO not propose to dis
parage the merits Of the other
gentlemen suggested as candidates
for judge of the sixth circuit, We
feel assured that the selection
Of A. S. Douglass, Esq, would be
gratifying to large majority of
the people of Fairfield. nfr.
Douglass is practitioner of long
standing, thorough lawyer, a
careful student, and a gentleman
OF the highest integrity. There

The LEGISLATURE can perform no
more just or fitting act than to re-
store to the circuit bench Hon. A. p.
Adrich. He certainly possesses all
the qualifications to enable him to
do his full share in elevating the
bench of the State to the old-time
standard. A lawyer of far more
than ordinary ability, fond Of his
profession, ambitious of honor in
it's legitimate field, ani gentleman
whose personal integrity is not less
conspicuous than his constant devo-
ton to the cause Of right, he will

Judge Aldrich was the victim Of tho

THE JUDICIAL ERMINE.

What the Bar of Sreenville Tfffnk
About the Matter" Considerations
Which Alone Should Guide the Leg
islature in Making Choice.
The following memorial, which
speaks strongly enough for itself,
has been forwarded to the Legisla~
ture -
The undersigned, members of the
Greenville bar, in view of the fact
that you are about to elect judges
to fill the vacancies which the Su.
preme Co,trt has declared to exist,
respectfully present rs follows :
/. We think that the positions
should be filed by lawyers of &C
knowledged legal attainnents, and
of high moral character.
2. We do not think that posi-
ton on the bonch should he re-
ward for political service but,
other things being equal, we think
that those who have been consist
emf Democrats should be preferred
to those who, at the eleventh hour,
deserted their corrupt Radical party
with which they had been for years
connected. in order to continue
themselves in Office.
3. We think that the positions
should be filled by lawyers whose
character, attainmonts, social posi-
ton and general surroundings are
such that no lawyer who practises
before him, or party itigant, would
have any just cause to ilnpute the
judges decision to partial or i'm
pure motives.
We therefore express the hope
that you will avail yourselves of the
opportunity now offered to restore
the Judiciary Of the State to the
high standard, for ability, integrity
and experience, which distinguished
it prior to the late Radical admins
tration, and urge upon you that
change be made in the eighth cir
cult, and that lawyer who has the
above qualifications be elected to
fill the vacancy.
