"The Judiciary Committee respectfully report that in their opinion this General Assembly could not pass an act to control the National Bank chartered under, law of Congress, and there are restrictions in the charters sufficientto prevent the col lection of exhorbitant interest.

McKay, has not been talking much of late about the Florence ' Railroad, but we are assured that he has not given up the project not by any means. When the Colonel takes hold he never lets go. ' . Seeing the other day that our representative, Col. Broad foot, had introduced a bill in the House relative to the Florence Railroad, we made inquiry about its provisions, and learned that Col. McKay is seeking to get control ot some of the surplus labor of the State, at present unemployed in the Pen itentiary, for the benefit of our town and the country south of us. In other words, he asks the State to turn over to him two hundred convicts and with these he pro poses to go to work and grade the Flo rence Railroad. We hope the Colonel may succeed. In Georgia, we believe, and perhaps in some other States, they : are employing their Penitentiary convicts in work of this sort, and find it a good thing. DIED. ME ABES.
