Foreign News. LOKDON, April 17.-Thiers' circular says : " The ' insurgents are emptying their houses and sellirg their furniture. The Government continues to temporize, ibr the purpose of collecting an irresisti ble force, and also to allow the Parisians time to reflect. Tho insurgents say we shoot our prisoners and intend the over throw of the Republic, and the suppres sion of the subsidies of the National Guards. These statements are false." Another account says the Government troops attacked tho Communist position at Vanvres -on Saturday morning. The attack was sudden and took the insur gents completely by surprise, but they soon rallied and after a most determined fight, in which many lives were sacrificed, succeeded in compelling the Government forces to retire. Several times during the day the fight was renewed, but tbe Communiste, in the end, were left mas ters of the position. During th** fijrht. Fort Vanvres maintained a dendlv fire upon the ranks of the Government troop*. The fiehting at this point continued thc entire day-every inch of srrr ind heine obstinately disputed. When first at tacked, the Communists fled precipitate ly under cover of the guns of Vanvres. They rallied after some-diffioultv and af ter an obstinate strahle, recrainod their lost crround.

Tho demonstration in Hyde Park yes terday, in favor of the Paris insurgents, was a failure. ' PARIS, April 17.-A Communist decree provides for a methodical requisition upon the inhabitants of Paris, street by street. Another decree convokes the Syndical Chambers, in order :o draft statistics of abandoned workshops, and arrange for their reopening by workmen who arc not proprietors. The May Convention. Thc proposition, originally emanating from the C harleston C hamber of C om me; ce and Board of Trade, to hold a convention in this city in May next, to take into con sideration our financial affairs, has leen received with general favor through JU; the State. In almost even- County, arrange ments have been made fer representation. As wc have bolero intimated, we consider it wise for such a body to assemble for the purpose of deviring practical and discreet measures of relief-:measures, too, which shall look to the future.) lt is ?npoi I ant for us to know exactly how and where w- .- i and. and whither weare drifting, in a financial point of view. A body of able, discreet and patriotic citizens meeting together for the purpose of a cool, calm and thorough ex amination of the State's resources and lia bilities, and ol' suggesting measures of re lief and security, must result in good. Such a meeting seems demanded by the it nation. Of course, Richland will b* duly represented in the convention. "Wc karn that the Columbia Board of Trade iui\ . the matter in view, and under the auspices of this budy, we presume that the necessary steps will bc takon for the rep resentation of this ci ty and County. What ever differences ot" opinion may exist as tu the course that the convention should re commend, it is certainly important that every County in the ?tate should partici pate in a consultation that lodes to the en during interest? of the good peopie of the State. Let the groat question of debt and taxation be passed in review, and let its hope that there :;hn?? bc found in thepro posed convention the sagacity necessary tn the end in view. Some effective check should be applied. This is the main work of the convention.-Columbia Phoenix. IMPORTANT MOVE AMONG THE COLOR ED LEADERS IN SocTn CAROLINA.-The Charleston J\~cu's intimates that an influ ent:.; 1 body of the co cred leaders of the State fire making a movement looking tc repudiation and the end of carpet-bag rule. It gives the programme :is io!lows : 1. A proposal to the Chamber of Com merce und Board of-Trade to repudiate the entire indebtedness of the State. 2. A convent ion within two months for thc organization of a new party based strictly on intelligence and integrity. 3. The exchange ol mutual guarantees between the races, wherein thc colored leaders only ask that their present civil and political rights shall not be disturber .;:;:'. that they snail have a fair representa tion . theomces of tho Stu.to govemaient,| in return for which th' y will pledge them selves to unite with thc whites in ih?- elec tion of the best men tc coke. -i.

CAROLINA.-A Washington leuepsays the fin: ncial coi dition oi South Carolina is such that a letter received repr?sents a growing desir among the tax payers to appeal (lirectlv to Congress, asking that body to resume control of the State and shield the people there from thc continuance of a taxation which is amounting practically to., c ??fis cation lt is proposed to show that neith er hostility to thc Government nor parti san considerations have anything to di with present troubles there. It was noticeable thar DeLarge, one of thc colored members from South Carolina, appealed to rho House recently to grant universal amnesty as thc proper course io restore confidence and harmony in the South. WOULDS,! SURRENDER FREEDOM. Luring lite discussion of jhe Ku-Klux bill in the Senate, Mr. Trumbull moved tc strike out thc section allowing the Presi dent to suspend the writ of habeas corpus, an 1 he and si* other Republicans arrayed themselves with the Democrats iii opppsi tioh to this most extraordinary section. They were, Messrs. Hill. Morrill, ol Maine, Robertson, Schur n, und Wright. On the final pass .ge di the lill, Messrs. Hill, Robertson, Schlitz, Tipton, and Trumbull voted in th?- negative with the Democrats. Mr. Morrill,, of Maine, declined to vote at all. ARREST OF ABBEVILLE OFFICIA?S.

Tho Houso ot Representatives contains live colored members, and Thursday that body deposed u white boy acting as a- page or messenger mid ap pointed a *cgro youth in his place. This is the first instance a colored boy has fcevu appointed in Congress. THE ADVERTISER. Kdge?eld, S. C., April 20, 1871. Let us Have no Agricultural Fair. Nearly every District in South Caroli na, we believe, has an Agricultural So ciety and an Exhibition in tho fall of each year. And these Associations and Exhibitions under properdiroction, have not only a fine industrial influence, but also a fine social influence" upon the peo ple by bringing them occasionally togeth er. We hope to see an Agricultural So ciety speedily established in old Edge field-and an Exhibition, at the Court House, in October next. Who' will set set the ball in motion? Let., us hereafter steer clear of so much political agitation and so many political mountebanks, and meet together more to consult about the moral and material interests of the coun try. In no respect would the advantages" of a District Association and Annual Ex hibition be more potent than in giving courage to nm- desponding farmers, and in excitimr a noble respect in the minds fif the young men of the District who were reared in anticipation of a career of ] wealth and opulence. This accomplished, these young and disappointed men will hold politics secondary to business, and consequently matters social and political, ?will run decidedly more smoothly. M Sn fan always finds some mischief for idle hands to do.'' and to this fact may be traced much of the turbulence of thc tinrjos. So let us meet together, from all quar ters, in October next, and bring with us our finest stock, and best field produce, and fruit?, and flowers, and vegetables, and articles of domestic economy and accomplishment. And talk about such questions as " small farms," and "upland tile draining." and "hogs and pigs," and "the best thing for healing and softening ; the teats of cows," and "compostheaps," and the "collection of fertilizers"1 and the "application of topdressing," and "subsoiling" and "sheep-raising," and "sheep-shearing" and "tho price ol"j wool," and "tho extermination of moles," ;'nd "steam threshing' machines"I and "steam plows," ?tc, ?t., Ac. Who sec onds thc motion ? Monumental Bazanrln Columbia. j j h< subjoined Circular, which we have :. "tivtd i'rom Mrs. WM. GREGG,?Sr., Vice President of tho S?rth Carolina Monument Association for Edgefield Dis trict, will explain itself. We very ear nestly hope tho women of Edgefield will not allow their native District to be be hindhand in a cause so high and holy : SOUTH CAROLINA MONUMENT ASSOCIA TION CIRCULAR. At a meeting of the Board of Directors of tho South Carolina Monument Associ ation, held in Columbia, November 20, it was unanimously resolved, that a Ba zaar should be opened in Columbia, on the 3rd day of May, the proceeds of which Bazaar shall be used to aid in che erection of a Monument to the Confederate Dead of South Carolina. Feeling assured that -more good can be dono by a combined effort of this kind than by ::ny individ ual exertion, however well directed, we earnestly appeal to the women of thc State to help us in this work. Up to this lime, every call from the Association ?for aid has been most generously responded to. both by South Carolinians residing outside of the State, as well ns by those who arc among us to see the progress of our work. Being convinced, the re fere, that we have but to represent our cause, for all to contribute gladly to its ."success, wo ask the public int ores' in our behalf. Tables will be assigned to each Dis trict, and Committees appointed to re ceive contributions. We nope that these contributions will be lax-ge ami that eve ry District will be largely represented. Arrangements will be made with the various Railroads and Express Compa nies, to pass all articles mark i'd, " Mon ument Bu7aar," free of cjiargi, Parties sending boxes an requested to put the name of tho District from which they come on each box.

Snowden and Bevon! other ladies reached this city OKI Saturday morning, from Charleston, a* dolcgates from the Memorial Association of that city, on their way to Gettysburg, Pa., for the purpose of making fin:d arrange ments for the removal to thc ir own State of thc remains of all South Carolinians who fell in the memorable kui Ju at that place. The .party, accompanied by sev eral ladies of Baltimore, design leaving j for Gettysburg to-morrow." "Hecting Upon the Level and Flirt ing Upon the Squaie " Bulow, we append an article descrip tivo of the dignified and peaceful adjourn ment of thc North Carolina Legislature, which took place a few days ?ego. Mark the contrast in this respect between Dem ocratic North Carolina and Radical South Carolina-a contrast extremely - damag ing to tho Radicals of tho latter State. And mark tho fact that Speaker Jarvis, although so highly commended, had no $.300 or $1000 voted him as extra pay wrung from an overburdened and pov erty-stricken people : But road : j Wo copy tho closing sec nos in the House from thc Telegram : At 1" o'clock Speaker Jarvis announc ed, that according to the Joint resolution, ue declared tho House adjourned sine, die. An informal meeting of thc members were then convened, by calling Mr. jicgory to the Chair. Mr. Harris, of Franklin, arose, and .n a few well timed remarks, paid a heautilul tribute to Speaker Jan-is, and -aid hu believed that every member Lud labored for thc good of the State. Mr. Durham, in very eloquent terms, alluded to the harmonious feelings that had generally characterized thc sessions of tlie House! Dudley, (col.) alt;o made a few appro pi lite remarks-saying we 1 nd una on :J;e level, and trusted in thc name of G od, .hat wc would part upon the .-'piare. Tucker, (col.) alluded to the kind ness and good feeling thal had been ex hibited to him and others of Ins color, by the Conservatives, and trust?, d that the best blessings of Heaven would rest upon all. Willis (col.) said he was proud of the good feeling that had been exhibited by members duriug this session ; and-what ever was good for North Carolinians, was good for him ; for he had been hom and raised in the State. Mr. Hargrove said, all things eonsid erca, the peace and harmony of this ses sion of the General Assembly, had been most remarkable, and joined *in the wish that it was b#t an omen of the better days to come. When peace, universal peace, would pervade our entire borders. Mr. Wash Hardy (one of ?hpclerks) thanked thc members for the courtesy extended bim and assured them, both Kepublieans ?nd Conservatives, that if; Uiey should ever come up to Buncombe county, they would receive il warm wel come* by "Washington." Mr. Sparrow paid a beautiful tributo to all tue members-especially did he commend the general character of tho colored jjioiiibers, and he hoped. thoy would return to their homes and teach tiiose ol theil color what bu believed they felt here to-day-that North Carolinians were their best friends and desired'their prosperity. He hoped allsectional feel ings would bo laid aside, and ono and all | go to work for the good of the whole State. Mr. Justice, in speaking for the West, said he heartily endorsed tho Mentiincnt? that hud been expressed, and Joined Ul thu belief that a glorious future awaited our good old State. With a general skaking of hands the members then parted.

The Universal Life Insurance Co. Thia. Company i -althougb-now some*he-| or seven years old, is a new claimant for public favor in Edgciicld. Its represen tative in these parts is Capt. GEonoE Ii. LAKE, a nativo citizen whose courtesy, in telligence and reliability make bim al-,J ways an extremely pleasant gentleman to deal with. Wc have read the State ment of this Company for the year 1870, and been very much impressed with its convincing facts: It shows that financial condition is dnc of the gr Ht security, and that the principle u which the company is conducted-thai of reducing tho pre? miums to the lowest possible scale and abandoning the garnish of periodical div idends-is both Bound in practice and j acceptable to the great body of those who seek life insurance. The number of poli cies issued by the companv in 1870 was 2,304, insuring $6,175,965, and the net sur plus at the end of the year was $223,132. 26, which furnishes a ratio.of assets over liabilities of 136 per cent., or, in other words, the company possesses $136 for every 8100 of its liabilities.. Th? comp'ariy has attained' this proud position in less than six years, although it claims rates of premiums twenty-five per cent. Uss than those charged by other companies. This low cost of life insu rance ought to prove ah attractive fea ture, and the advantage will bo plainly seen in the fact that the company has re ceived in premiums from its policy hol ders the sum of $1,517,000, whilst to ef fect the same amount of insurance in a mutual company would have cost $2,000, 000. Thus by allowing its policy holders to retain this excess of $483,000,*the com pany has virtually paid them a dividend of $483,000, and paid it in advance instead: Of at the end of one or more years. The managers of the company, claim that it is impossible to find any exam ple of a mutual r.jmpany furnishing in surance at so low a cost by. returning to its policy holders an equal amount upon similar receipts. This is the principle of business advo cated by many accomplished actuaries, who agree that the sums returned to the policy holders under tbe designation, of | dividends are monies that never ought to have becntakon from them, and that these dividends are nothing more than a restitution of property fiiiselv charged. Tho Universal Life h?s had, thc sagacity to test this theory, and the result has had thc effect of distinguishing this compa ny above fourteen rivals of its ago that pursued tho old wcll-troddon path. Tho success of the company is a proud victo ry for tue management, and we are con fident that as the equity, of tho system becomes moro widely known it will bc moro largely patronized. Whitlemore Again Discomfited. The Revorend and very infamous B. F. Whitremore, who was expelled from Congress for selling cadetships, but who subsequently led the Republican Conven tion of South Carolina, and is now a lead ing member of tho Legislature, has boen defeated for Intendent of the town of Darlington,.J. G. McCall, Esq., the Citi zens candidate running ahead of him by 5S VOtOH, How Fortunes are Made. Helmbold declares, " without adverti sing I should be a poor man to-day." Very probably. There are immy men who are poor to-day simply because they were afraid to risk a few dollars in prin ter's ink. Some business nien make a feeble attempt at keeping themselves be fore thc public, and then, because busi ness does not immediately crowd in upon them, come to thc sage conclusion that advertising won't pay. If they fail to trace large sales directly to tliioir few little advertisements, thc impression is indelibly fixed in their minds that the investment is a poor one, and hence they refuse to repeat the experiment. Jf Hclmbold, Bonner, Jay Cooke, and other parties who have realized immense fortunes as the result of extensive and judicious advertising, had been as timor ous as these hullVwny advertisers, would they ever haye achieved their present success? Plowing and Tilting at Aloutmo reuci Park. There js un English gentleman living near Aiken-Cu pt, Buxton, j&rwprty ?* j thc lirilish army-and his place is failed Montnnirenci Park. Capt. Buxton is in terested in Agriculture, and, on Wednes day the 12th inst., he had at Montmorenci Park a Plowing Match and a Tourna ment' 'Flip plowing Match, however, was the groat jQpdtu^e, A ?amber of prom inent Agriculturalists were ptttSMl't, the judges of the Plowing Match being Berckmans, of Augusta, and our honored fellow citizens, Messrs. Jonathan ?Vi. Mil ler and ?porge B. Mills, of Beech Island. The occasion js dfj.spn)>cd as having been one of much pleasure and )if?fit-? ?upi the day/closed with the organization of a Coun ty Agricultural Association. Pity wc did not have among us many more such men as Buxton and Berckmans. The Gofumbia Pdjomix of Satur day says: "A party of jiisguispd men appeared in the neighborhood of Belair, Lancaster County, on Thursday night, the otb instant, und kiltod ? colored man named Isaac Coles, who wax a commis? stoner at tho recent election, and, as is charged, stuffed the ballot-box. He is also charged with burning a gin-house, and wu* generally regarded a clangorous character, A wh'tp pian named Lawson H. Long, also a commissioner pf election, was waited upon, as js supposed, by the same party, received a severe whip ping, and was notified to leave the county in fifteen days. A day or two ago he sent a request to a citizen requesting an ex tension of time, which could not be ?rrantert m>oi Wflnt of authority. A com mittee of citizens from L?ngster waited upoti the Governor yesterday and re quested the removal of certain unpopular officers, as well as the arms now in the hands of the militia.' As satisfactory reasons were brought forward, the Gov ernor promised to comply with the re quest." . The Reason Why. It is said that tfic reason why Fred. Douglass declined General Grant's invita tion to dine at the White House with thc San Domingo Comissioners was to be found in a very distinct undurstandinn in Washington society, that^Irs. Grant will tolerate no negro equality at her ta lboor anywhere else in her household, (?raut, himself, is not particular in such matters. He will hob-nob with anything that has a vote. ?Sr Three young gentlemen left Selma, Ala., one day last week, on what will doubtless be considered, in this day of railroads and rapid transit, u remarkable trij). They left for New York on horse back, and will go tho entire distance in the saddle. Their names are as follows: C. L. Tilden, Frederick Sherman and R. I). Turner. Thc first two have been in business in Selma for some months past ; the Inst named came from New York specially to make this trip. They are all well mounted and iquipped for the jour ney, and, rio doubt, will "haye a pleasant trip. They aro Northern men, and thc Selma Time? suggests that thoy take Washington in their route, and when they reach there, that thoy |>e called be fore the Congressional committee to tell what they saw of the Ku-Klux. jpSlr A correspondent of tho Greenville Enterprise states that the election of town officers came off yesterday, and our " An ti-License" or " Dry Ticket" was, with out opposition and without a dissenting vote elected.

It is toleiably well established thatGoVj I ernor English is 'elected in 'Connecticut,1 which result shows a large Democratic gain from'last year; and as evidence that" the movement against Radicalism is not going backward, we have the Democratic victories in Missouri and Michigan. De troit City and Wayne County have gone largely Democratic, and returns from the State, so far as received, show extensive gains on the same side. The cities have mostly elected Democratic mayors, and the result, as a whole, is ' highly encour aging, fellowing so swiftly upon the foot steps of New Hampshire and Connecticut. The St. Louis election has an uuusual national significance. The Radicals made ' the issue on national questions. The lead ing party organ claimed, that victory at this time meant success next year, and that failure would " haye the contrary and "disastrous effect.'' ,On this platform they put their best men, and met with an utter defeat, 'which, according to their own ad-1 mission, is a defeat of thc Not' ,nal Re- j publican party in the Stat" liadicalism lias ruled in St. ?^ eight years with unchallenged power, and this result greatly significant,^ A MODEL LAW-MAKER.-A Louisiana legislator is thus sketched by the New Or leans Times; "Atthe meeting of the late legislative session, one of the Scn?gambian members professed a great anxiety to be introduced to'de Gnbcrnor,' which* was at last gratified. Ushered into thc''Execu tive presonce, he was met with a, 'glad to see you, sir.' With a flourish that embodi ed all the native grace of a Chimpanzee, he advanced with a profound bow, and th en drawing himself up with rigid ramrod dig nity, answered, ' lank you, Gubernon, de preciation is corroborated. I hab perspir ed you for a long time.' That fellow con sequents helped to make laws for the people of Louisiana." DEATH OE A VETERAN PRINTER.-It is ! our melancholy province to record the death of a resident printer of Augusta. Mr. John T. King, who for more than thirty five years has been actively identified with the craft in this city, where he learned his trade in the office of the Augusta Herald, now reilresented by the Constitutionalist. The deceased has filled in these long years positions of trust and confidence ni the several offices of the city from time to time with satrsfaction to his employers and credit to his administrative ability and knowledge of the art. For the past year his health has 1 een so impaired that his labors in this office, in which he held the position of compositor, was frequently in terrupted for week? at a time. His friends and .craftsmen were not unprepared wi the sad result of his disease, which ter minated fatally yesterday morning about 2 o'clock.

Beautiful was the docile spirit, and'thp earnest' enthusiasm with which, in ?jjb midst of fashion and pride, she clungttb the'simple faith of her fathers; and .the honor and respect which she gave to$tt? humblest teachers. The family group when first'U met the writer's eye, ij&Qfc then wilderness of Madison county, Vi cars to his memory; thc wealthy and hospitable planter, his comfortable home, fvlho ra?e and beautiful flowers, thc zeal ous and devoted Baptist minister, strong in conscious dignity as the minister of truth, and the teacher^of all morality to the pioneers of the forest in their midst, her of whom we write, then a young Iglfl, the object of their -.affections, re splendent in the first beauty and pride of hpr youth ; intelligence and mind beam ing from every ?eatn???-'^?ke- the -rose, her beauty unfolding all its sweetness fror? within;" Then followed her marr Tiage. At her married1 home'in *St. Au gustine, and afterward* at 'Orange Mills, was formed a circle of graces and pure delights. The choice spirits and the cul tivated men of tho Old. army gathered there at the house of aa old friend. The men and women bHiigh social staiiding, noted for dLstmguish?a virtue, grace and genial talent, came' there to enjoy the pleasures of an elegant hospitality, and a refined culture. " Since the desolations of .the war, under her fostering handj Orango Mills had commenced to re-assume all its beauty-, and every year aa the unfolding beauties of nature and the ^charms and graces of the lovely, child who.seemed a part of them developed^ it became more an earth ly paradise. Never were there to be found two of their sax more beautiful,,: moro interesting, than the mother andi daughter. Enchanting was the associ? tioii which grow lietweon them, and (?be exquisite beauties of nature. Thc com-1 oblations 'of, land and water, of flowers, fruits and trees, thc rose, tho orange and thc banana; the great wide river, and theso two.beautiful flowers of humanity. Alas, 14 change is -written on all things here." Completeness of earthly perfec tion may be ono.of the appointed times for entrance into tho higher, thc celestial form. . < . ' The last sad- rites. ?f r?*?"*"**. and honor to thc beautiful lifa? tUe - body terrestri al," touched all hearts oven in thoirpro found grief, with their tender appropri ateness. Thc trees and flowers planted, cherished by her hands, bloomed in per fect beauty as if topear' thoir mute but touching tribut? to her memory. Thc neighbors, young-and old, were there witli flowers from their homes to decorato her resting place. The reverend "man of God'.' who performed the religious rites, spoke in strains go touching, so beautiful, so sweetly. sad, and yet so full of the "Christian hope" of the life beyond the grave, that every . heart was penetrated with deep emotions.' Thus closed the life in earth of her yhom we all loved. Wo rest in tho knowledge that "being dead, she yet lives" and her spirit is with us. COMMERCIAL. GOLD-Buying atlOO and selling at lil.
