SGoTbrand VS.. Aiken.

Our people should watch very
closely the contest now going on in
town they should attend the tax
ing of testimony, and should OBJ
serve carefully the evidence given
and the parties giving it. IF any
witness be detected swearing false
II let him be prosecuted at once
for perjury. Col. Aiken has un-
doubtedly been elected to Congress
from this District and were it not
for the fact that the next House OF
Representatives will have Repub-
iean majority the case Of Stolbrand
VS.. Aiken would very likely never
have been heard OF. The defeated
candidate has the legal right to
make contest and to get all the
evidence he can in support Of his
case; but the people who elected
Col Aiken to Congress should see
that their rights are not sworn away
By glib-tongued, ignorant Radical
witnesses with impunity.

The Testimony 9sill--Stolbras,d
VS.. Aiken.
Columbia News and Courie


Columbia Correspondent News and Courier,
Yesterday the attorneys of Gen.
Carlos J. Stolbrand and the Hon. D.
Wyatt Aiken went before United
States Com missioner Eaton for the
purpose Of taking testimony as to the
contest from this district Before
proceeding with the testimony Col.
Eugcpe 3. Gary, attorney for Col.
Aiken, filed an objection and excep-
ton on the following grounds. lst,
Because the plaintiffs notice that he
would take testimony was served on
the defendant at Washington on the
2Sth Of January, 1881, and did not
allow the defendant sufficient time by
the usual route of travel to attend,
aud one day for preparation exclusive
Of Sunday and the day of service.
I'd. Because the person mentioned IN
the notice aforesaid for taking testi-
mony in this case was not competent
for that purpose and not authorized
by law to take testimony in such cases.
Sd. Because the names of the Wit
nesses to be examined were not set
forth ard specified in said notice.
4th. Because the plaintiff took testl-
nony at places where1he, did not al
lege 10 his notice Of contest that there
was fraud, violence or iIlega!ity of
any kind in conducting the election.
9Th. Because the testimony heretofore
taken IN the case was not coufned to
the proof or disproof Of, the. facts al
legged or denied in the notice Of con J..
test and the answer thereto.
The testimony mill (possibly on
account Of these objeotious) stopped
grinding yesterday aud was idle TO-
day. United States Com missioner Il.
NJ. Stoeber, who has been acting as
general manager to the concern, is a
nephew of Stolbrand, which isut as
it should be. It is said that $500
afidavits have been obtained in this
county so far to the effect that the
affauts voted for Stolbraud. The
stolbrand party proposed to Col. Gary
to extend the time for testimony,
which he refused. They also asked
him to designate some one before
whom testimony for their side should
be taken, but he will hold aloof and
take advantage Of such blunders as
they may; make.

The Professions Of Our LegiSla-
tors

It may interest some Of our read
ers to know the professions Of those
who make their laws. We there
fore give the professions OF the
House members. 1t will be seen
that the farmers constitute large
majority Of the body. Out Of l24,
they have 6s; so that there can be
no reason to complain that this
most important portion of our peo-
pie is. neglected or forgotten OF
Disseminated against in the matter
of law making.
There are in the House: Law
Yers, 26-1 Of these is also an edl-
tor and 1 a banker.
Farmers, 6s-4 of these are also
merchants, and s are physicians
Physicians, IA of these is also
druggist, and s are farmers.

farmers
Teachers, 3.

Contractors, 2.
Butcher, l.
Banker, 1-he is also lawyer.

We are not able to give the pro
fessions of the Senators but the
proportion Of the farmers is fully as
large as in the House.

For TIE HERALD.
Our Washington Letter.
WASHINGTON, D. c.,

Feb. Z, 1851.
There is light ou the electoral count
business. The Senate Democrats have
resolved to support q resolution sub
stantially the same as that adopted in
1887, when, as now, there was no
doubt about the general result, but
when there Was doubt about counting
particular State, as there is now.
Unless the Republicans of both House
and Senate prefer that the count shall
go on informally, and another irregu-
larly selected President shall be inau-
gurated, they will agree to this resolu-
ton. But the present count COM
pleted, something more ought to be
done. A comprehensive act should
be passed, covering the whole subject,
so that hereafter nothing will be ne
cessary but to pass, every four years a
simple resolution to 60 into joint con-
vention. Our own party controlling
both Houses for the last two years is
not without blame that this has not
already been done.
There is a better chance now Of our
agreement upon a funding bill than
there has been since the session COM
merced. The influences brought to
bear On Congress during the last week
or ten days, both from the Treasury
aud from business men have had their
effect on both Senators and Represen-
tatives. It is unnecessary to say that
that those Influences were all favorable
to a higher rate of interest than the
House proposed, and to longer term
for the bonds, and to Tightening CT
the National Banks alleged burdens.
A we'll posted Representative said
yesterday that if the Senate passed a
bill making the bond and Treasury
note interest 81 per ceat., the bonds
to be redeemable in FIVE years and
payable in twenty, and the notes re-
deemable 10 one and payable in ten
years, the House will agree to the bill
with a single change-making the
note interest 5 Per cent. instead of 81
To this complexion the bill will pro-
baby come.
Rivers and Harbors will absorb
something over ten millions this year,
including sl,600,o00 for the Missis-
sippi liver.
All the appropriation bills not al.
ready reported are nearly ready in
Committee, and it is understood, as
promised by Mr. Atkins before the
holidays, that there is nothing in any
of them to provoke political discussion.
It requires great skill ard high de-
gree of self restraint tc prepare any
measure in such a manner as to avoid
attack from CoDger and like people,
but MIR. Atkins and his able commit
tee on appropriations have 50 far sue
ceeded in the general appropriations
Government expenses, including pen
sion and other Deficiencies, will be
somewhat but not much larger than
last year.

promises to cause considerable discus
sion in both House aud Senate Pay
ments are now 50 large that many
Cous ress;Dcu wish in some way to re-
duce them. The particular measure
now under discussion is known as the
Sixty Surgeon bill, dividing the eoun-
try NJ: into districts and comp:i!:"t
c!;silua3ts and their witnesses to appear
iu person for Examination. The ob
lection to this is that it would Impose
such intolerable expense on the claim-
ants as to be practical denial of JUS
tivr in very many cases.
