Everything un changed. Both parties in the House expecting military interference." None up to six p M. Gen Ruger has done nothing as yet. The matter will hard ly change -before to-morrow. Demo crats are cheerful. Republicans are uneasy. Colombia, S. C, Dec 1. Gen W TSherwan, or the Secretary of War, Washington, D C : I have carefully obstained from inter ference with the organization of the House from the first.On the application of the governor and my own belief for the necessity therefor, for the preserva tion of the, peace. I placed troops in the State House, but not in the rooms of theassembly.or either of the Houses on the day of the meeting! It came about that at the time the soldiers were placed on eithea side of the door of entrance to the hall of Republicans under the following circumstances : A person at the door of the House and who claimed authority to examine certificates of those claim in e to be members prior to their admission to the hall, but who I think had no legal authority for so doing, applied to the officers in command of the troops placed in the corridor for the preser vation of peace, for assistance on the ground that he was being pressed upon and could not perform his duty. The soldiers were placed as stated.7' As soon as I was fully informed of the cir cumstances I ordered the 'soldiers withdrawn as I had previously inform ed Gov Chamberlain that I should con fine my action to the preservation of the peace, and should do nothing with reference to keeping the doors of the rooms of meeting of the Houses or the rooms themselves, unless it became necessary because of breach of the peace, which the civil officers of the Houses should be unable to restore. No act was done by the soldiers except that of presence as stated, but whilst they were so present persons 'claiming rights of enterance under the certificate of the clerk of the Supreme Court were refused admission. (Signed) TH Ruger, Commanding the Department. A proposition signed by both Speakers to adjourn to 12 to-morrow, and meet with the status unchanged, provided Gen Ruger would agree. Gen Ruger refused on the ground he riiust obey orders from Washington. The Hocsas therefore are not likely to ad journ. , Hamilton a colored republican mem ber from Beaufort, made a strong speech! said be was a republican, voted for Chamberlain, Hayes and Wheeler, but he coqli not stand to see all law stricken down in the effort to; preserve the party. Every member knew that this body to which he belonged was not legal, had no quorum when organ ized, that Jaws , made by it would be voidjuid there would be no protection to property or life if we override the law; that we must bow to judgment of the Supreme Court. Several republi cans have signified their intention to abandon the Mackey organization.
