We are not given to prophesying cvt 1 against the day of evil, but It is evident lliat our ennae is in the hands of the enemy, mid we have nothing upon wliieli to rely except tbo imaginary honesty of Radical politicians. On Thursday !al tlie Commission organized in the hall of tho Supremo Court in Wellington, Jastiee Clifford presiding, and proceeded to busiuasa. The conflicting oertlfloates from Florida, and the objection* thereto were received from Ferry, Vice President, prk tern., for consideration. Win. M. Evert* and E. W.

Forry, President pro tem of the Senate, presiding. The law require* the States to be called alphabetically, and, there fore, Alabama came first. From the bluster of Sherman, the uppo uittellt of investigating committees, charßCs of fraud and intimidation, Ac., ve certainly expected that some objection would be Offered by Ihe Bupublioun* to tlw counting of tlie vote of this Stale. But tliere waa none, and Oongreaamau Cook, of (hmrgia, one of the tellers, hsd the Honor of antiont'ciiig the first vote for the Democratic candidates —ten votes tor Tiblen and ten votes tor Hendricks. Arkansas followed with six votes for the same. Then came California v ith six votes for Hnyee and six votes for Wheeler. Colorado followed with three votes for the same. Then Connecticut, with six votes for Tildeu aud Hendricks; and Delaware witli three more the same, mnkiug twenty-five votes for Tildeu anil Hetidrioks, ami nine for Hayes and Wheeler. And Mien Florida was called, ami here the j Mitt Houses struck the first snug. There are three returns from this State.

Below we give a synopsis of the testi mony of the witnesses before the Con gressional Committee, exposing tho vile corruption of the Louisiana Bcturniiig Board, anil establishing beyoud a doubt that the orrigiual return* were so man ipulated aa to show on their face a ma jority for the Hays electors. The Louisiana telegrams lmva been delivered up to the Committee by Mana ger Barnes. Senator West was first ex amined, who refusing to answer import ant questions, waa discharged. Kenner, a negro member of the Board, was ex amined and exhibited memoranda taken by himself, showing numerous preeints thrown otu on ground* of alleged intiro iilatjog, Ac,, tot sjiowedfuoth ittgtftimwijDg VeriifeiTarisli. jL J. F. Littlefield, a clerk of tho Hoard, at first refused to auswar questions, but after udisving with his lawyer effered to tell tho whole truth, under protest. He stated that he was ordered by Wells to trnns[H)Mi the returns of two poll* in Vernon Parish, where there was not a Radical vote polled, and make ft Radicnl majority of 178. He said that the object of Wells in doing this waa to elect the Radical Judge, District Attorney and State Senator, this being Wells' native Pariah. He testified that the original papers were destroyed by Wells in order to conceal the crime. Also stated that the affidavit* to establish these false re turn* were innufnotured by the Board, and names forged to them. Said that he hail conversed with Kellogg before giving Ins testimony, who advised and requested him to stick to his party. Well* and Aniteraou were brought be fore the Committee, and were immedi ately attacked with cramp* in the a lido- 1 men, rendering them too unwell to testi fy, aud were returned to onatody. Maddox, Tseasnry* Agent, who was in constant eommunioatlnn with Wells ] under assumed uumes, at first refused to j explain the meanlug of tlie letters with these fictitious signatures, thou in the hands of the committee. After consid eration he agreed to answer questions. The I’xcit meat in Washington was in tense at this time. The counting of the Eire UnIII vote Mas of small moment in the estimation of politicians, in compari son witli the examination of Maddox. Alt expected him to make a full diaolo sale of tlie cor npt proposals of Wells for $300,000 for himself, and a smaller amount for the negroes, to couut the vote for either party. Witness waa re eallisl and testified in the presence ot , Wells, who shuweil much uervonanasa aud excitement during the examiuotien. Thg negroes, Kenner end Csseosvn, showed much much concern, as they lie gan to realize the h- )X they were in, anil indicated liiut tlmy Mould make a cleuu breast of it all. Maddox testified that he was instruct ed by J. Madison Wells to go to Wash ington snd state to the Republican *u- i tliorities that their live* were in danger ; ! that tlie Democratic majority m*s larger j Until he could well manage, and that lie wanted money for the risky business. 1 Witness said that lie followed the iu- ; aferoctions, and failed. Was then order- ! ed to negotiate with tlio Democratic an- 1 tliorities to count the State for Ikon, for the sum of 81,000,000. Witness was auhjfond to as arching cross-exsmiua tion, by Republican*, but they fadeil to l lire.ik tlie force of bis testimony, but, on the contrary, allowed the wenkues. of the theory of the defense of Wells. Witness further testified that he luul examined the records at New Orleans, and found that lb* l State had gwue large ly Democratic.

A perfect Heinge of bill*, most of them of a local nature, have been presented, but few are of sufficient interest to publish, at least anti) tiiey become laws. 'Die special committee of the House to whom waa refered the subject of reducing tiie Judicial Circuits of the State, have made their rcjsirt, recom mending tiie abolishing of four Circuits, including this (the Augusta) Circnit, in which event Richmond, Columbia and McDuffie comities are to be added to the Northern (Judge Pottle’s) Circnit, and Bnrke to the Middle (Judge John son’s) Circuit. Of local bills, in which our immediate section is interested, is the bill presented ** Dr. Jones, of this county, nt the instance of several hundred petitioners, to prohibit tho sale of liquors in the comity. Of course the people of the comity will hare an opportunity to vote on tiie question Injure it becomes a law. Also a bill to allow ail public sales by | Sheriff's, Admitiisiomtors, Ac., in Me- ‘ Duffle county, to be held at the Depot in the town of Thomson, instead of the Conrtiionse, ns now required by law. Also a trill introduced by Mr. Williams, of Columbia, reducing the bond of the Sheriff of that county from SIO,OOO to $5,(100. To this bill onr Uepreaentative. I)r. Joints, offered an amendment reduc ing the I Kind of the Sheriff of this county from SIO,OOO to 85,000, aud the bill as amended passed. Also tho bill prohibiting Hie sale of liquors within one mile of Berzelia, which has passed. The Convention bill, as we have before staled, has passed tho House by a heavy majority, and is now before the 1 Senate. It is generally believed that the i almost unanimous voice of tho poopl-: iu favor of tiie measure will crush tiie onptu us opposition of it# enemies, and that a Convention may lie regarded as one of the certainties.
