Our New York Correspondence.
NEW YORK, March 16,1672.
If Lavater, the physiognomist, could
be brought to life and walk down Bro?d
way, the old man's heart would be glad
dened at the verification of his peculiar
knowledge of human nature that would
be found written cn the feces of the pass^
ing crowd.
I'suppose there is ho place inthe:world
where a man sees iuch distinctive shades
of nationalities and expressions as .in a
stroll on afair afternoon down Broadway;
Intellect in rags and rascality in - broad
cloth; countenances creased with crime
and care ; eyes alight with'the excitement
of traffic in bodies and souls; lips witn
their last lie upon th em, almost quiver
ing (ind, an sight; and "human forms
divine" that have become the temples of j
the worst passions and.vmbs brmm?xind! j
There is beauty enough to make a bache
lor break his vows, but, robed in thc,
fashion of the day, you caunottell whether
it belongs to the great harem represented
by thirty thousand houses of prostitution,
or to a virtuous home. There is age,
venerable, aristocratic and adorned with
its silver locks, but, for all you know, it I
is fresh from" the battle-fields ofWallJ
street, where it lias been instrumental iii
sending a skeleton into a score of house
holds- Then, there are the poor-God
help them! The poor sewing-girls in
their threadbare garments; thc poor old
women who sit in the cold "blash? on the
street.corne? and sell newspapers; the
poor Chinese patiently whiting for some
body to purchase their cheap cigars ; thc
poor Wind people who grind out thc sad
dirge of their life on a hurdy gurdy, and
are grateful for a trillo; the poor boys
and girls who brush the mud from the
street crossings that vou may pass over
ri .~ wi.o.l ?iTiil .!wTT wmi~Tlieir menning
eyes and pinched faces for " Only a pen
ny, please, sir ;" the omnibus drivers
those Cossacks of city civilization, whose
hand is literally raised against every
man, as they invite him to conic in or.l
of the eohl, and who sit from inornhu,
till night on their frigid pedestals like
so many animated icebergs, never so
lively as w hen the atmosphere is ten de
grees below zero. Where do they all
find an abiding place? That's thc ques
tion. Cheap lodgings and thc station
houses, Where humanity is packed to
gether in a filthy mass that taints the air |
with corruption, tell ' one part of the
story ; Potter's field and the Peniteu
??ry tell the rest.
Yet outside of these graver shadows,
the picture is still made interesting by
thc people you-meet. Tho social and
.political " lions*' are always -visible", and
with true domocratic independence you
may elbow your way among celebrities
who range from a prize-fighter to a Presi
dent. Take my arm for a saunter down
Broadway and let mo point out a few.
That finely dressed man in front of the
Sterling House, with the form of an
Apollo, and a figure that looms up a head
above the majority of thepassing people,
is Heenan, thc "Benicia Boy." His
broken nose, thc relic of a twenty-four
foot ring, but slightly disfigures a modest
countenance, and the unassuming nnd
.peaceful bcarhlgof the man is in keeping
with tho general character which he has
maintaiued since bc abandoned the mus
cular profession. Ile has thousands of
friends, espcciall,; among the local poli
ticians.
Perhaps wc-shall iu >et John Morrissey,
albeit when ? i t? wu he holds forth at tho
Hollinan House. Take six feet of human
stature, paid it solidly with two bundled
and ten or twenty pounds avoirdupois,
aive it a pair ol' broad shoulders and hips,
a steady under] inning, and a gait every
motion of which is indicative of power ;
crown elie whole with a massive head,
bhick hair, keen, dark eyes, an immobile
faeo and mouth, though slightly shaded
by a moustache and beard, and marred
by another broken nose, and you have
as good a pentogruph as I eau make of
thc famous fighter, M. C. and million
aire.
Speaking of fighting, here comes a
man in whom yon -will bc interested
Buffalo Bill, areal border hero, who for
Hie first time has traveled east of the
Mississippi Rivor. William Cody is his
true naine, but in his wild life among
tlie frontiersmen, scouting among In
dians and scalping Apaches, ho has won
a soubriquet that has already been made
famous i n romaneo aniLthc drama. Ned
Buntlino luis clevetly "done" him in a
live-act play full of thrilling border
scones Unit has set tho Boworj' boys wild
with delight. You will notice that, ap
parently, there is not a spare ounce of |
flesh on his superb frame ; that il is knit
together as with hooks of steel, and is
lithe and elastic. He moves along with
an easy, swinging stride; his feet and
hands aro small, but he seems uncom
fortable out of the moccasins and leather
leggins. Ho has a young face, but what
a world, of character is written on it.
Although thc long brown hair sweeping
down orv the shoulders >f thc heavy
blanket overcoat may savor of a bit of |
romaneo in his composition, a singlo look
Into a pair of gray eyes that you cannot
help associating with a rifle barrel, dis
pels the notion that there is any nonsense
abont tho man-anything but thc tense,
sharp, highsti'ung courage of ono who
carries his life in his hand, and brains
enough, in the language of Hawkeye, to
" Sarcumvont the pesky redskins." He

From the Chicago Journal.
A Tale of Pantaloons.
Davenport, our sister city, has just had
a sensation. It was all about a pair of
pantaloons, and is to end in a divorce suit,
in my preceding letter -I allude to the en
couraging manner in which people out thia
way are emulating the example of Chica
go's good citizens. The case in hand is
.another example. For instance, a Daven
port legal gentleman ; went out' one even
ing lust week to have a quiet game of bil
liards. He-stuck tobie cue for several
laithful hours, con vivializcd with bia friends
still longer, and then went boine. On re
tiring to rest he was most singularly un
easy, and 'tosse 1 about for some time with
out dropping into that peaceful slumber
we usually derive from a clear conscience.
His lady was annoyed, and complained
kindlv. It was no use, however ; some
ill (how fortunate that he was awake !)
and he was appealed to hasten off to the
nearest drug store in quest of a restora
tive. lie hastily attired himself, double
clicked down street, rushed into a store,
'jut?intd the article so urgently required,
and produced his pocketbook: Great Ca
sar ! what had transpired ? He had nev
er seen, that wallet before ; and the pants !
they were not his own. Could it be pos
sible he was in his right mind? He re
solved to sec, and without stopping to take
the remedy with him, he rushed back to
the wile of his bosom. .He did not flour
ish a revolver. He did not. smash Jurni
ture. He did not strike attitudes like a
gladiator. He simply took part in the
following conversation :
"Jane?"
"Yes dear."
" How are you feeling ?"
" Better. Much better. I think a good
sleep is all I now need. How kind of you
to go to so much trouble."
" Very-kind, wasn't it?"
" Very kind, honey."
" Jane", shall I turn on the gas ?"
" If you'like, dear."
Thc eas was turned on. ;
*' Jane ?"
" Yes, dear."
" Do these look like ruy pantaloons?"
" Why, what can you mean, dear?"
" I mean, do these resemble the trouser?
I wore home this evening?"
" Why how can I tell, dear?" and Jane
raised up with some surprise and reluc
tance, gave a quick glance and screamed
outright.
" Husband," said she with some. em
barrassment "you've made a ridiculous
mistake somewhere, while"out with our
friends. What in the world have you'
been doing to-night ?"
" That's rather thin, Jane, we don't usu
ally take Off our pants to play billiards.
When I went fo bed "to-night, "I laid hiv
??roper pantaloons on the chair. When 1
dressed togo ont, the pair I have on first
fell hito my way. 1 put them on.. I din
covered at the store they were not mine.
I returned ut ouee, and find the pair I left
on the chair are missing."
Jane began to sob, weep and protest
her innocence, while the husband paced
the floor in deep reflection.
."Jane,'-' as last, he said, "I guess you
can go home to your parents to-morrow.
You and I have gotten along very well
lor a year or two, hut the thing's played."
And down stairs he went with a deaf ear
to the frenzied appeals and prayers she
showered after him. An investigation on
the morrow disclosed the fact that the
mysteriously procured pantaloons contain
ed just three hundred dollars more than
the pair that had so mysteriously walked
j off. Jane left on the first train, for her
Illinois home, a bill of divorce has been
filed, and no one has called to exchange
i pantaloons and pocket-books.
^Johnny Schrimp's Composition.
I like ice.. When it's cold 1 like it best,
fcc is good for a great many things. It is
-good to skate on, and it is good to make
ice cream.' I like to skate. Sometimes I
lend my skates to. Lizzie Jones, and she
lets me buckle them on for her. She wears
striped stockings, with red and white and
blue stripes running around them, and her
legs look like a stick of candy. Father
says ice is good in cobblers. I don't know
why it is better in cobblers than in little
boys. I suppose* I shall be a great deal
wiser wheh I grow up. I like ice cream
with plenty of vanilla in it. There is
more ice cream in summer than in winter,
and more ice in winter than in summer.
There are heaps of things that I do not
understand. Mother says if I eat too
much ice cream it will make my stomach
hurt. I eat all I want, but am careful
not to eat too much, because mother telle,
me not to.
When next winter comes, Lizzie Jones
and I are going to skato some more.
There will-not be any more winter till af
ter summer comes-. ' The seasons are very
odd in. this' .country.. : Sometimes winter
comes before summer, andsomctimcssuin
m'er comes hefojp'^ter. Father,.'.says J
may have a ne'w'pliirof skates next sum-'
mer. When I get to bc a man, I am go
?'irig'Jbo pour red stuff on ice to warm it be
fore I put it in my mouth, like my .fetter
does.

'A young^oan in Vermont was
much addicted to?reading in bed by the
light of a kerosene lamp, and persisted
in the habit, notwithstanding the advice
of his friends and the warnings of the
terrible . acddenjS? which occur almost
daily. On retiriK one evening recently?
il appears thatfiftset tho lamp too near
the edge of the tm. As he did not come
down to breakfast next morning, his
mother becameffcxious, and rapped on
his ehambordoojs Receiving no answer,
she ontered thejroom, when her worst
fears were realign. During thc night,
the lamp had tipped over upon the bed. j

A Modest Maryland Bridegroom.
Heal diffiderioHgid innate modesty are
so rarely seen in^American society of the
present-day, Afincases of tlie "simon
pure" article doSiyes especial mention by
the neW8jmpjerj3K?3. buch modesty was
in thia county.*""Xyoling man had "wooed
and won the affections of a charming young
lidy, and the lime was fixed upon when
?he was to make him the " happiest of
men." . When that day arrived the store
cakes and whisky were provided, the cler
gyman was in attendance, and friends and
neighbors were assembled to join their
voices in the joyous epithalaraiums, when
lo ! the bridegroom came not. After anx
iously waiting until all hope of his com
ing was past, a party waa. formed to go in
search of the missing groom, andthebride
elect swooned away. Tire bridegroom, who
ali thia time hau been endeavoring to
"screw his courage up to the sticking
point," had hidden himself in order to see
what turn events might ttke.^
When be beheld the party of discovery
coming towards him, thinking thal discre
tion waa the better part of valor, he took
to bia heel? and fled' incontinently
halt was, however, soon effected by meena
of a shot gun, and the young man's ?x
ceasive diffidence so far overcome him that
he allowed himself to be led Back to the
object of his affections. Here another dif
ficulty arose; Hie bride, whose "amour
propre" had bern greatly shocked .by -the
outrageous trettnient she had received
from the croon, came to the conclasion
somewhat late, that matrimony waa bot
delusion and a anare, and that nothing
could iriduce mr to marry this man ; rather
" An outcast pilgrim will she rove,
Than wed tie man"
"who went bae'e on her." No persuasions,
no entreatits ol her friends could prevail
on. her, till at last the Rev. clergyman,
who, by tho wry, ia somewhat of a wag,
told the bride fiat he would aubmit to no
such conduct ; that he had been sent for
to marry the ?uple, and unless she con
sented to have the ceremony performed at
: once, that he vould cali on Sheriff Smith
and have her arrested ?or breach of prom
ise. The fair me could not resist such an
argument, and the groom being ready by
this time, they were forthwith immolated
. on the attar of Hymen.
May their conjugal felicity be sp perfect
that diffident svains in the future, "seeing,
may take hear'again."-Calvert Journal.
The Heht or Recession.
The New Yirk World makes a strong
point on the ilorton factic., who'aro so
bitter against the officers educated at
West Point,.f<r joining the Southern Con
federacy. Thse officers are held by Mor
ton & Co. to have committed art unpar
donable gin-which no repentance can
atone for. "hey must be eternally ex
cluded from all bills of amnesty. They
are the high criminals referred to by the
amiable Gtft-?ker.
The Worla retorts by a curious piece of |
history. Wn. Rawle, one of the moat re
spectable jurats of bia day-r-a high-toned
old Federalis, and United States District
Attorney though out the adminiatrationa
of Wathingbn and Adams-in 1826- pub
lished an elenentary work on the Constij?
tution. It ?as been generally regarded
as the moat accurate and able exposition
of the Oohsatution. Emanating irom a
FederaliBt <f the Washington school it
was not posible that any treason could
lurk within :t. On account of itt reputa
tion and inrinsic merit, it was adopted as
the text boik at the Military Academy at
Weat Point There Lee, Davis, Johnston,.
Magruder, luger, Pendleton, Beauregard,
Jackson anc tue reat of the Confederate
captains w<re. taught .by authority the
true principea of the Coniititniion. The
principles ?u? and there instilled into
them were ouched in the following words
of Rawle :
At page 32 Mr. Rawle gays :
Tho secesi?n of a State from the Union
depends entrely on the will of the people
of Buch Stat. * . * In any man
ner by whih a aeceaaion may take place,
nothing is nore certain than that the act
should he dliberate, clear and/untqui>Q
cal. ? . :
At page 37 Mr. Rawle says ;
The Stats may wholly withdraw from
the Union, but while they oontraue they
must retftinthevcjcar?cter of repr?sentative
republics. ' ' " * ... ,
*B#?U1 farther, m chapter 32, page
Ptsstsi. nv.*
IM;faoti)n should ^?fctempt to-iubvert
?hejpvernneht ot a State for the purpose
f destroying its republican form, th? pa
ternal power "ojfjthe Unionrceuld be called
forth to subdue* it.-4 Yet is noir understood
that its interposition would be justifiable
if the people of a State should determine
to retire from the Union,. whether they
adopted another or retained, the. same'
TofuToT government.
.. Th?se were ?it-Uoclrin?t taught, ex'
?c?the?iray. at the 'rGoy^rhnSent school as
lal? as 1861,.and may, for aught we know,
be still taught there; but what a contrast j
they form to the practices of this day !
The rankest treason now is to uphold the
-fundamental principles of the Cpnstitu
;ti?n, interpreted ky': Rawle and, "The

Destructive Fire in Union?
The town of Union was vim ted with a
terribly destructive fire, 'yesterday morn
ing, which swept away both hotels, and
! seven or eight other buildings, including
>m?Tua? olc^mkfii- ia estimated' at
$?$000?oiu? ?a^rtlon^Awed& ^*Witr sin
! cerely condole with th? doubly afflicted
town. Mr. Stokes, nothing daunted, is
already making arrangements to resume'
Operations. The paper had been mailed
only a few hours before the fire broke out.
We are indented to him for the following
description' of fcf work of the fire de-'
mon :
.;UNION COURT HOUSB,
FRIDAY MORNING, March 15,1872.
. FRIEND -SELBY : A fire, broke out in
this town, this morning, about. 4 o'clock,
?nd destroyed a grest portion of the bu
siness part of Union. It was'first discov
ered around the chimney of ;Mr. Wm. El
lens store, in the second story of the,build
ing. We had no fire engine or any other
apparatus'for combatting ure, so that the
destroying element had full sway. A
slight breeze sprung up, and we could do
but little more than stand and watch it
burn. I cannot estimate the loss, but it
?is very great for this place. .The build
ings, destroyed were the brick block, be
longing to Mr. H. L. Goss, Mrs. Lamb,
Capt. A. B.. Foster, the National Hotel
anu the Central Hotel. In Mr. Goss'
'hading wag Mr. Ellert store, containing
a large Btock of dry goods, groceries, hard- j
ware, Ac'.; Reuben Simms' stock of gro
ceries ; the second story was occupied by
Dr. Bennett, dentist, and the room lately
occupied by Gen. Joseph Gist. I do not |
thinx anything was saved by these gen
tlemen.
In Mrs. Lamb's building, Dr. Gibbs oc
cupied the lower story as a drug store.
He lost everything.. The 2?mes office
was in the upper story, and not a type, or
anything in the way of material, was sa
ved-a total loss ; my son saved my books.
Captain Foster, fortunately, saved nearly
all his heavy stock of goods;-pf course in
a very mixed up condition. A portion of j
the-furniture in the hotels wa&saved; The f
wooden store belonging to Colonel J. L.
Young", next to Mr. filler's store, was also
destroyed, (fortunately no one occupied it,)
with some tenements in the rear of the
store. . A-' number of outrhufldmgs- were
destroyed. Mr. Tinsley and Dr. J. A.
Moore occupied a building between the
two stores-the first as a jeweler's store,
and the latter as a doctor's shop. Mr.
Tinsley's jewelry, tools, Ac, were saved,
but Dr. Moore lost all his surgical instru
ments and medicines. A. W. Thompson
A Co. occupied the building adjoining the
National Hotel. Fortunately their stock
was very low, and they saved most of it.
Twin* lVuuu. -v. . . ___'" - --_:.???_ J i
colored people-one a' shoemaker, am3*tl
other a little fruit and variety store. They
saved most of their property. I learn
that a colored child was burned in an out
house of the hotel. I have just .left the
fire-Captain Foster's building is burning.
The flames spread rapidly. The cara are
about to start. R." M. STOKES".
The Legislature.
Yesterday brought toa close-for a sea
son, at least-the action of the law-mak
ing department of South Carolina. The
session has been remarkable, first-for its
length ; and, secondly-for the profligacy,
extravagance, venality and general moral
debasement that has characterized the
measures adopted and the conduct of the
members. The band of robbers-we speak
of the majority of the General Assembly
and their chief, R. K. Scott-have for four
long months been holding high carnival
at the capital-stuffing their own pockets,
beggaring an already impoverished people,
and by their example corrupting the pub
lic morals. All thefreedofc and franchises
m the world, evenhad the thievish ad
venturers Which have controlled the State
secured" them, or aDy part thereof, to the
emancipated colored race, could nevercom
pensate for thc moral turpitude and false
ideas of the duties of true .citizenship,
which their example and influence have
stamped upon the ruling element of our"
black people. They have been taught to
believe that tho true object of public po
sition is private gain. Not ambitious "and
.honorable preferment, but money. They
have inoculated into the blacks their own
insane passion for jobs and corrupt specu
lative schemes, and led them to regard
the trusts confided to them to be exercised
in the people's behalf, as privileges or fa
vors granted them for their individual
benefit. This is what they have done for
many-nay, most-of the colored repre
seniativevwhose influence for ?vii-will,
in turn, affect no small part of the colored
race. This is but a partial representation
of the moral degradation that the carpet
bag element has inaugurated. Their ia-'
jury to .the negroes, politically, is eveir
more apparent They have made recon
struction a failure and ? farce-a den of |
thieves assume to enacs good laws and!
govern a free people. ,
If the colored people allow such a con
dition of things to continue, their politi
cal doom is sealed, and is no less certain1
than our financial mint Only think of rt,
Upwards of $8,000,000 added to the public
debt in one year ! Twice as much as was
incurred in eighty years before the war,
and that, too,, when three times as much
was collected by taxation as Was formerly
needed for the same length of ' ?me. The
State Government has thus cost, in round
numbers, $10,000,000 for one fiscal year.
That'this money could have been honestly
expended, is absurd. Yet the General
Assembly has validated, aa they term it,
the issue of the bonds, and thus shoulder
ed with Scott and the financial ring the
responsibility and just opprobrium of the'
fraud-Qolombia Phoenix.

"BLOWING ton THE SETTLEMENT.''
" I organized the- first Sunday-school in
this county and ran it. myself," said a j
shrewd but dissipated Wisconsin lawyer.
"A few of us Americans came here early.
We wanted to get in decent, industrious
Bettlers, and keep the rowdies out. . .Sal

we want. It will be the best and cheap
sst way to blow for the settlement. Thev
