Show i SOtlll CAKOMNA. i New York, 18. TimrV Columbia: The resolution that pussed tho lower house several days ao for adjournment adjourn-ment sine die ol the legislature on tho 22d inst. will be amended by the senate and concurred in i y the u-sen bly, bo as to take a reees from Friday nest to some day in February. Owing to political disturbances hero stale officers and beads of departments have been unable to mak up their reports so as to enable Gov. Chamberlain Chamber-lain to prepare his annual message to the legislature in time for the contemplated contem-plated adjournment. It is said that during receBsolthe regular legislature writs will be iBsued by Wade Hampton Hamp-ton for new electors to fill vacancies, ho as to provido hirn with a senate, but it is certain that a portion, t least, of the democratic senators will refuso to leave their seats in the regular regu-lar legislature. Nothing was done in Hampton's assembly beyond taking tak-ing another ballot for United States senator, and the appointment of a committee to dralt a memorial to congress ro'ativo to political complications compli-cations in the state. Tho senato investigating committee continued taking testimony today relative to the Harrishurg massacre and other outrages preceding the 1 presidential election. It is said to have been of tho most startling character. The house committee decided to split into three sub-division', two of which arc to go to Charleston to-morrow night and the third is to remain ! here. Tho democrat on the committee com-mittee have abandoned all further , attempt of changing the electoral i vote of the state and are now huntiug fori hose mythical persous known as - intimidators of democratic negroPrt. Democrats here have told them that, down in Beaulort there were seven negroes who were going t voto tiio democratic ticket, but their wives would not let them, and the commit-too commit-too are on the war path for these j intolerant epousen. Th committee j are bound U do something and if they i cannot show that Tilden carried tlie state of r?oulb Carolina, they hope to prove that ho would hava got at lwt a few colored voles bad the democratic demo-cratic negroes, like their candidate, remained bachelors. The committee to day took tuatimony introduced by republicans showing why no regular rrlurns came from Robbina precinct, Barnwell county, which po'led i uvor 1,300 republican majority, and which was not counted by the slate eanv.iine loard. It was proved that the building whrt? th polls were 1.1 I 1... IU.I.mMrii held was fired into by the democrat i and ttie voting broken up. One of the bullets grazed the head of one of 1 the manager. It w is shown why no ( K!ls wtrr hoi 1 in f'ana:i Fair pre- cinct in that ro inly. One o!
