TRnrrland is nnpasv and tho nncsrinn as to ! the monoply of the Bosphorus seems to ^ near a . settlement. The Russian advance now seems to be steady and sure. Ex-Governor Moses and solicitor Leo were arrested Tuesday, and the officers are looking for A. 0. Jones and C. \V. Montgomery. There is good ground for the assertion that the next meeting of 4'The Party" will be held in the penitentiary. Meanwhile there are many cf the old leaders who are in daily fear of an arrest, many of whom would like to follow their fellows in exile if they only had some of the stolen funds left. A movement is on foot to cut out a new county from Sumter, Darlington* Chesterfield and Kershaw Counties, with Bishopville as the coimty seat A public meeting will be held at Bishopville at an early day, and the subject will then be fully and freely discussed. The proposed eountv will be composed principally of territory belongiug to Sumter, and will contain between four and five hundred square miles. The latest sensation in Beaufort is the unexplained absence of Mr. Glcaves. who left town a week ago last Saturday to " hold an inquest After seveial days people began to enquire as to the whereabouts of the missing trial justice anil it was freely reported that he had left for good. Inquiries as to the condition of his affairs left no room to doubt that his stay was to be prolonged and that he had been warned that the Investigation Committeo in Columbia would prefer charges . against him that could not be easily . answered. On Tuesday last two strangers from Columbia were in town and from what * 1 *? A~ tho f tlior was said oy loem u was imvucu mut i..v; , r had a warrant for the arrest of'some one, , ... ami the Joarual of Commerce of ycdcre . day informs us that a warrant had been ; \ issued for the arrest of Mr. Gleavcs. Put ting this and that together the absence of the ex-Lieut. Governor is not to be won. 4 -dered at .Attorney-General Conner lias decided f: that the poll tax now being collected must rio>.e applied to the maintenance of scho( j, ) for this fiscal year. This will be good - news to the teachers, who had been told that the mooey from polls would be appli* ed to the payment of past due claims buj the speculators who have bought old claims will not relish the decision. Still it will be a great disappointment h teachers wno have refused to sell in the j hopes that they were about to be paid for services rendered last year, and uiany are in great need of the money due for the necessaries of life. It is to be hoped that the time will oome when trustees will ^ lose the schools when their fuuds arc exhausted and not keep theiu open for a lot of *;>eculators who get about half the teachers wages because the teachers um>t live. The Railroad Strike. The recent reduction of the wages of firemen and brakemefr on the Baltimore r.od Ohio and other western railroads has resulted in a strike and led to consequents of a most disastrous character. Up ou the refusal of the employes to accept a reduction of ten per cent on the wage* they had been receiving, the officers of the roads caused their discharge and :v>ceedcd to fill their places with other men. Thia was resisted by the strikers who were mostly members of a society )rganized for sustaining them in such an undertaking and seconded their efforts in pre renting the running of traius until the railroad officials should agree to re employ them at the old rate of wages. The determination of the directors of the altimore and Ohio R. R. to carry their point r< ndered - it necessary for the , militia tj he called out and on Friday last j . .iaIIioi, n aaaiimw] in th0 atre>f>t< nf* Tt:il i 4 '.VHIQIVH VI^HIIW III %UV K-%kvv??y v ? ?. . tiniore between the strikers, now become J rioters, and the 5th and 6th Maryland i regiment^ daring which eight persons were killed and many more were wounded. Meanwhile he forcible resistance to a redaction of wages has extended among j .he employes of the Pennsylvania R. R. ! and to c nnecting lines even as far as1 Kansas. The city of Pittsburg Pa. was j t u cn possession of, as it were, by a small :.ruiy of turbulent strikers wlio appear to have b#en joined in their work by the ranst abandoned characters that endanger society. These wretches apparently 1 actuated rather by a desire for plunder than to obtain redress for supposed wrongs, kindled conflagra tions in which oue hundred and thirtyfive locomotives and thirty-five hundred cars were burned and buildings and prop i rty to tho value of eight millions of s dollars. tlir meanwhile hu?inos? has1 way trailic concerned ami as tlie . strike has kept 'extendi:!*' intense excitement exists in the States wh'ch are suffeiing from its effects. The militia in many cases called out seem to have been wretchedly handled, at least in i Maryland, Ohio and Pennsylvania and the obstruction of the mails has caused the l\ S. government to interpose to stay the carnival of pillage and disorder. The Decadence of American Shipping. While every dweller in this section of the country is fully impressed with the important benefits that will accrue from the future development of the capacious harbor of Port Royal, not every one has his attention drawn* to the great decrease ? .1 ot American commer ciai marine since me year which saw the opening of the war between the States. It is generally sup. posed that after the disappearance of Confederate erusicrs from the seas and the necessity had ceased for our mer eha its to have recourse to foreign flags for the security of their marine inve^tsments, tha the tide in our commerce ceased to ebt Attainable statistics, however, prove the contrary. The international commerce the world in 'I860 amounted to $5,992,000,000 of which the United States had $763,000,000, or 13 per cent; in US70 it amounted to $9,567,000,000, of which we had $886,000, 000, or 9 1-4 percent. In'short, the world" commerce increased 60 per cent from I860 to 1S70, but our commerce increas. ed only 16 percent. In those ten years Great Britain, France, Belgium, Aus tria and the States of North and South America, exclusive ot the United States doubled their commerce; the commerce of Germany, Italy, Greece, Russia and European Turkey increased one-half-the I United States increased only ODe sixthI' will also appear that the war did not drive away so large a share of our ship, ping as has been supposed. The same statistics show a loss of tonnage between the years 18G1 and 1865 of 443,032, while after the war or between 1865 and 1ST0 there was a further loss of 850.274. These facts are suggestiveThey prove that a cause for the drcay op our connuercialfmarinc exists independent of the direct effect of our war. That though our commerce between 1860 and 1870 increased one-sixth, while our population increased one-quarter, our regis* tered tonnage (that is, our ships in foreign trade,) decreased from 2,642,628 tons in 1861 to 1,425,142 tons in 1871 or nearly one-half. This state of affairs can only be ex* plained as follows: While Atuerican ships were driven fron the seas during the war because the high rates of insurance rendered crmpetion with foreign freights impossible so at the close of the war the almost prohibitory tariffjru posed upon imports for the purpose of paying off the public debt, so reduced our importations as to make homeward voyages unprofit* able to the ship-owner and as a conse. oucncc the out-ward voyage had to make up the deficit. This, while it made freights on goods exported in American diips proportionally higher, had the effect to divert our exports' from Ameri can to foreign ships and to drive our ?^n ships from the foreign trade and caused many of our ship-owners to dispose of their vessels and invest their capital in railroads and other enterprises. But there are 'other causes that have tended to this result Our almost indiscrimina'e tariff taxes articles that we do not produce as well as articled that we do produce. Foreign raw materials which we might manufacture and then ship to other countries are subjected to such taxes at the Custom House that we cau not afford to export them when manufactured. Other kinds of raw matei iafe such as cop; er oi'es and coaise wools, which would inako a good home-ward cargo for our ships, are liable prohibitory duties, so that our ships have to return partly at least in ballast, and as a consequence are obligcd'to charge so high a rate' offreighton our manufactured productions i exported in them, that these goods Mnnnt. nnmnpte with European goods of the same quality manufactured at the same cost in Europe. Hence it is true not only our commercial marine epgaged iu the foreign trade lias rapidly decreased since the war but the United States has gained in foreigu commerce since 1800 less even than European Turke}'. AYojage North. Port Royal to New Yoik on thr City of Dalla*. Doubtless you, Mr. Editor, have heard before this, of the pleasure and incidents of our trip north, in more glowing terms than we can command. Surely no one can say too much in praise of the "City of Dallas'' and ot the kindness and attcntion of all connected with it. There was some disappointment expressed at first when our party was told that, the popular captain, Hines, was away for his vacation. But Mr. \\ itt the purser, a host in himself, was kindly attentive to evory body, and before the voyage was over all the passengers were loud in praise of Capt. Crowell, our captain "ad interim" It is pleasant to recall tl e bright days passed at sea. The little visits to the captain's room and pilot bouse to get an out-look over the broad ocean; the singing on deck headed by a young minister from Jacksonville; the merry jokes at table whilst eatiug some delicious fish freshly caught. Even our one day's seasickness had its ludicrous as well as serious side-had also the advantage of being a new experienceWc were ready to sympathize with another sea-sick passenger who exclaimed "0 Lord what have I done to merit such a punishment ! ' ' As usual, head winds prevailed, and j it was afternoon when on Tuesday we j r^n^hel qunrntitii.e. To inward our ami tJi:s lunch as the children say "capped the climax. Ah! captain Crowed vfcdl understood human nature, when he decided it was neither wise uor politic to 1 jt passengers leave the Centner hungry. (Jreat was the measure of justice which was done to this meal in fact, but it is impossible to doit justice in word. Even the steward's pastry cannot be puffed, for it was a puff itself. Arrived off quarantine, there was as ' usual much eagerness to see and hear. As I the Dr. was signalled the same old jokes were perpetrated, which we have often heard before, whilst we all watched the boat push from shore, and come along side. But when some one whispered they had really seen a sick man in 1 the steerage, we began to shake in our ; I shoes. Ten days detention off quaran-' tine would indeed be no joke. We were ! not entirely reassured until we saw the j Dr. again in his boat, carrying away a j huge watermelon as a trophy. Leaving quarantine there was nothing further to be done but to sign a "vote of thanks'' drawn up by some gentlemen ' to which all subscribed with hearty goo<* | will. Thanks to the Captain for his , courtesy and kindness;?to the Purser for his attentions and good will;?10 the Steward for his good cheer;?and even to "Jimmy" for his good natron and we, at our end ot the table imfuded "Frank" in this general thanksgiving. New York seemed to ns hot, dirty and crowded after our quiet lite on the Sea Islands. We were glad to hurry across the city and early got possession of a stateroom on the Fall River boat.! There we watched to our hearts' content J the beautifully dressed ladies as they; came aboard,?or listened to the music by the band as we glided out ot the harbor and past the lovely places along lhe shore. Later in the evening the concert music was to us as food to the , hungry and drink to the thirsty. Since we reached Boston the weather has been extremely warm. To-day thp mercuiy is bat ten degrees lower than it is in Charleston. Yours Truly, Ilyde. Boston, July 9th., 1877. THE STATE FAIR. The Executive Committee of the State Agricultural Society' have issued an address calling a meeting of the society to meet in Anderson on the 8th of AugustThe Committee in its address says: "The object of the meeting is to reorganize the society, infuse new life mto itand to give it an impetus which will start it on its new career with a force and spirit commensurate with the great work it is designed to accomplish. This great work is the restoration of the agricultural interest of the State, thef source of its wealth ami the ba*is of its strength, to its former prominence?a prominence which has been lost by its having been forced to bear the brunt of the oppressive taxation imposed by an unjust, hostile and tyrannical government, the demoralization of labor incident to the emancipation of'he slave, and bie r-nnronti^nf ^rnoenre tnfihe luffiiore of the low domaeneue; and until rooont- j Iv, hv the utter hopelessness of delirer j ancc from these deer seated evil-*, for at j least many years to come; a hope'e sne s that pamlized the energies of the people, j and made them almost as poor in spirit ! as thev are in purse. But the recent political revolution hac changed all this. The hopes of the people have revived; they have been relieve^ from oppressive and nnjust taxation, and the low demagogue has been tangh* that South Carolina is no longer a field f?r his operations. Farmers and mechanics, the time and the place are auspicious. With the pres"* tige of political success we meet at o'd Anderson, whose bugle blast first summoned the host under the banner (i home rule and reform, and gave an impetus to that great movement which resulted in a victory unparalleled in the hi.^'uy ot any people. Let i?* meet, then, upon the classic spot, and ..inaugurate a movement in the interests of\A*riculture which must achieve a like success." Ex-JudgeJ. J. Wright has a very poor opiuion of bis constituents when he I asserts that they are of a lower type than tbe shirtless denizens of the jungles of Africa. In a recent letter the ex-Judge says: "When persons go to Africa they should be those who are far above the native African in intellectual, moral and religious culture, when they will be able to wield a proper and wholesome influence upon the natives, and therefore be a benefit to them and a blessing to the world. All the best lights and authorities we have aVe that the colored people of this country are not typical Africans, and therefore, not true representatives of that race. Our forefathers were a class of persons from the western coast who were only considered by the real representative African fit for slaver}'. They were a low type of the African race, and the evidence is that the native African to-dav is far above the masses of! those who have been recently liberated from slavery in this country in intelligence." The entrance to West Point Military j' Academy is not so easy that a recommen- j dation from a Member of Congress wil] secure admission without some other i1 qualifications. It b stated that of the one hundred and sixteen candidates for j. admission to the lowest class the present; season, fifty-five passed ?od sixty-one were rejected. The President and Cabinet have been ' invited to attendthe JLduisvilleex3bibition, which opens on the 27tH< of September,! and the invitation lias been accepted. % ?. 4. i .: .?. . I saw r>. v. wiid-pigcnii flying, From gathering storm to mate ami nest And the dove's voice to his replying Seemed calling him from strife to rest. And then, whilst watching 'midst the growing Of dork storm-clouds and gathering glooiu * ' Came thoughts of find's own guidance, showing 3 'Midst all life's strife His love has room. " ? I'm led to think of our Father's caring Whilst sin's dark clouds do o'er us lower, And driven on, we were despairing And wrecked indeed, but for His power. ? How often 'midst the toil and striving* ( He speaks us words of peace and love, IIis promises, our hopes reviving, Gives strength to guide us safe above. Tim guided, we, His strength receiving, Ikve front the darkness turned away, And from our night of sin and grieving Rested in peace, and joy and day. I Oh Heavenly Father kindly guarding Our path through life, though we distress Thy loving heart by disregarding Thy voice, forgive our waywardness. Port Royal July 2lst 1S77. Green Cove, Florida, sulphur water is now bottled for use. That is the kind that a man pours a little into a glass and adds a lump of sugar, some nutmeg, a slice of lemon and mint, and goes home with his mouth full of cloves and tells his wife that he thonght he had the colic, and cloves were tiie only cure for it. 1 # i We have a number of kings in this country besides King Cotton, jf no crowned heads: there is a cattle king in Texas; a wheat kiug in California and a strawberry king in Viigiwa. iMr J.
