After the masteily retreat of the preFa from the Military Hall on Tues day night, there wore some further bellicose demonstrations by the loyal, which, however, ended without blood shed, and a state of peace having been restored, his Excellency was permit tod to resume the brief review of the hi6tory of "My Administration," which had been so frequently and naughtily interrupted. We learn that he took occasion to say that no circumbtances of any nature whatever could possibly induce him to be a candidate for the gubernatorial chair again, which may have had the effect of obtaining for him a hearing. Ilis Excellency was follow. ed in turn by his Honor Judge T. J. Mackey, who made one of lia usual telling speeches. He blamed the dis. turbance to the Bowen faction, which he called the Custom House ring, and then proceeded to show up the cor ruption of the party. His Honor wtant for the members of 0he Legisla ture with a sharp stiok, and said that ho had boon to Washington to see the President, and from him had learned that unless there was a reform effect. oil in the administration of State af fairs, the General Government would have to make provisions for the govern ment of the State. By this time, peace reigned in Warsaw, and Judge Mackey was followed by the inevita blo, the honorable Tim Ilurley. The meeting finally, after midnight, ad. journed in a high state of edification. -Charleston Courier. Impression at WashIngton. We make the following extract from a letter we have received front Washington from an acute observer : The Grantites laughed derisively at firot. Now-only part of a week later-they cannot conceal their alarm. Democratic newspapers all over the country have endorsed Greeley and the Tribune of to-day is full of those endorsements. All this must be provisional upon the Democrats mak ing no nomination. Wo have to keep in mind two points : 1. That the Democrats make a nomination-Davis, Pendleton, Ilendrix, or Chase ; and 2d, that the Philadelphia Convention may not nominato Grant, and in fact may nom. inato Greeley. As public opinion stands here just now the friends of the South will support (,recloy, if Grant only be in the field against him. That is, both the anti-Grantites and the Southern Democrats are willing to sacrifice everything to boat Grant. Greeley unites these two. If either Grant be nominated or aii out-and-out Democrat be, there will be a huge muss ; and the South will not lose in any event. Rimnoredi Withdrawal of lirant Os a Canididitte. The Charleston News publishes the following telegram from WVashington, under date of May 10th. Of this it may be said, "implortant, if true." "It is understood that the adminis tration Senators have at last reached a definite solution of their troubles. They held a caiuous to-day concernming the political situation, and after a stormy sessiont, desidod that Prosi dlent G rant must be withdrawn as a candidaito for renomination by the Philadelphia Convention. "Senator Cameron was deputed to notify President Grant of theo action of theo canous. "It is now admitted en all hand]s that the nomination of (Jrooley has utterly demnoralizedl the Grant clique, who su0 in it their death-knell." The Ulin un d Mir. (i rehty. Although opposed to the Cincinnati noinmation, the Columbia Union, of the 6th, in an articeo on this iubjet, pa~ys Mr. Greeley the following com pliment: hIorace Greeley is too well knowvn throughout the length and breadth of the whole land to require any extended notice at our hands. Heo is pro-eni.. nontly a self-made man, and one of a few prodneod by any generation, IIe has beeni the outspoken foe to oppres sion ,and wrong, the friend of right and justic, and the champion of the down-trodden the world over.

We are informed that the Balti more and Ohio Rtailroadh Company, in viiw of the fact that Baltimore has been selected as the place for hold ing the Demnocratic National Conven tion on the 9.h of July, has already a.rranged, through its Western con. niections to issuo tickets to an from Baltimnore at one fare for round trip.

Wednesday Morning, May 15, 1872. Our Positlont. In the light of recent events, we are amongst those who deprecate not t only a Democratic nomination for the 0 Presidency, but even the calling of the 0 National Democratic Convention, and t we give to the public our reasons therefor. The impracticability of a Demo- e cratio nomination, from our stand. 1 point, springs from the improbability of success, the chances being strongly against the possibility of uniting the Democracy, owing to a differenoe of opinion as to the policy to be pursued in the next campaign. As. 9 suming that the Democratic party can U be induced to support a Democratic F nominee, we wiii have then three tickets in the field, Democratio, Lib- t eral Republican, and Radical Iepub- I lican, each in itself with a sufficient t number of followers to make it ex. ceeding doubtful whether or not eith er candidate would receive a majority of all the votes in the Electoral Col lege, in ublih case the choio of a President would ret with Congress, and that body is certain to elect a RadiVal Republican, s there is every probability that a majority of its members will be of the Radicalstripo. W~hat thon can be gained by run ning a straight party ticket, except to be again humiliated by defeat, and f doubtless suffer a worse denioraliza- l tion than ever before encountered. 1 Inasmuch as the Demoorney cannoti hope to win a victory singlc-banded, e it would be supreme folly to make a nomination simply for .form's sake, anid where then the propriety or ne- I cimity of a Convention, without r work for it to perform ? WVe arc firmly convinced that the t most judicious thing that Democratic o loaders could do would be to leave t the mass of Democrats untrammeled by party dietation, to vote according n to their honest judgment, and only in v the interest of a common country and h Pople. We desire it understood si that if the National Convention meets li and makes a nomination, ether than tl endorsing Greolcy and Brown, we c. propose to' kick out of the traces. 11 We do tiot wish to appear uidioulous il by becoming a party to a national fol- ni ly. We claim to ho engaged in the a causo of reform and constitutional ib government, ard it is our purpose to p pursue that course that will most n surely bring about the success of that c cause. Nor do we intend to be led by C blind fanatics, who seem disposed to tI butt their heads against a stone wall G all their lives, and strive after some- ti thing that can never be reached. Our ns sole aim politically is to free our coun i try from Radical misrule and oppres- ir sion, and to effect that end, w', have w enlisted our humble services in behalf i of the Liberal Republicans, headed c by Horace Greoley and Oratz Brown'. A Glance at thme Nuewspaper- ti Few enterprise are as expensive as 01 newspapers and few are so laborious, w troublesome and unremunerative. bi Great as was the cost of publishing C them before the war, it is much w greater since. Exept in large cities, ga where the almost infinite small profit ci on eaoh issue counts up by means of w an extended circulation and liberal pa advertising, the publication of news- c papers entails a lOBn upon the publsh o re, every year adds to the expense I putlishing city newspapers. At ie N.rth, in the dease population e1 se great cities, where enterprises of 1i sorts are eagerly pushed by adver: sing, many nospapers roalize trge fortunes by means of the aggre. ation of small profits, but in less rowded cities of the South few news. apers can do more than barely nse. Lin t1temselves under the augmented ressure of expense. Few people ave any conception.of the vast ex. ense and infinite trouble connected ith the publication of newspapers, of io number of persons employed in the ifferent departments, and of the vigi. inee, unremitting labor, perplexity ad wear and tear of feeling entailed. :very week the bills have to be paid, 'here is no rest day or night.

All the news of the previou ay has been gathered from all quar era, far a d near, carefully collated nd attractively printed.

Grant will al aW himself to be treated so shabbily ainains to be yet seen, for we belieyi im to be possessed of an uncontrolla lo ambition, hard to satisfy, and no f a natute to give way at mnero dicta Ion. WVe confess that we do not placo ruch confidence in tire report of thr ithrdrawal- of Grant's name. Wi ave a faint suspicion that there ii >me trick in it, a move upon the po tical boards that is made to deceivi re public mind, and which may sue sed if rnot exposed. The Radical epublicans have become alarmed al ro magnitude of the Liberal move. cnt, and fearing that the Demnooracy ay unrite upon Greelcy, find it abso. itchy necessary to execute a stroke of hoiy to fore a straight Democratic emination, and thereby scure the oction of a Radical President. ucr idlea as to their real object is ~at they will pretend to discard rant, cause a change of policy in re Democratic party, and finally minate Grant at Philadelphia, and will then be too late for tire De ocracy to remedy the mistake into hich they will hrave been led. We ay be at fault in this opinion. We irtainly hope so, and at the same me warn Democrats to use all cau on, and not be entrapped by Radi Il aires. We have the game in our ,n hands, and can elect Greeley if a play our cards properly. Grant is ing used as a decoy by Morton & ., and unless he is wateihed closely, 1ll again have the opportunity to die ace the White House. If this Radi I plot does not succeed, then Grant 11 be thrown overboard by hia own irty, and hris miserablo career of rruption and vice effectually check. .

COOM'MUNIOATI) TO All In Favor of Investing In a Cottimn Factory. Mr. Editor: I will furnish a site rros Factory that has many advantages, free of charge, and eight or ten acres of land. The lsite is on Br oad River, two miles above Alston depot, on the Greenville and Columbia Railroad, half mille fromi Spartanburg and Unin Rail road. There is 14 feet fall in theshoal and tho site above named will give eight feet head, with an inexhaustable supply of water, with a wing dam of 600 feet long; six feet and running out to three feet will give the head of water named. I have now in use, for running a grist flour mill, and the water can be taken from the same pond and conducted to a luoality suitable for the above named purpose, being an elevated rock bluff, ab:ve high water mark, the land rising to an altitude of 100 feet above the rivur. If Fairfield is in earnest about manufacturing her raw material, and en hancing the value thereof, and keep that much money to circulate at home. Fair field has the preference, if not accepted, then to the enterprising man of capital. If any across the Mlason and Dixon line would like tu put. in a bid, I will just say for their information, we have no Ku Klux about here, all pence and quiet, aud you would'nt know that we were under martial law if you will juyt stay away from Alston and not read the.papers, but whenever you go there yon will see something to remind you uf the fuet, blue coats watching some poor fellow, or may be a dozen or so, until the train arrives to take them to Columbiu or Charleston, to hear their sentence for doing something of a very mild nature, to redress a wrong or insult, from some now citizen, a littla better than himself. Now such as that can't be tolerated by the gov ernment authorities, nor by those new citi zens since ti'ey have found out there is money in it, some for the informer and some for the performer. Iii this region called "1-hermaik's burnt district," we are all right. We have been convinced that it is no use to hide anything, nor kick against pricks. This is a fine country, and the prooris very manifest to sny observing person. There have been large fortunes made here in a very short tirre by Northern men, but it seems that. wedon't understand Ilho thing, they say we don't. Some of our people have learnt the secret, and seem to hold their hand pretty well in sharing the hon ors and wealth of the gol:len harvest. I don't know what, it cost to get initiated in the mystery of the magician, but I have some idea what it. will cost when they on. ter the spirit world and asked to give the password when they can cuter. So, come along, you see there is no dhanger of being scalped, and they say we people don't know anything. We are two honest for the times, and you sec a man and his money is Sin no danger with us and about cur houses, but when you quit the company of South era gentle men, we are not reap insible.

The eruption of Mr. Vesuvius, which has been in progress for sever al days, has assumed a terrible vio lonco, and intelligence is now com munionted by the cable that 200 per sons, inhabiting the villages at its base, have been buried by the lava. Thousands of others have fled in dis. may to situations of safety, and the distress and exoitement are intense. The event recalls but few parallels in the history of Vesuvius. The first recorded eruption of the famous vol cano occurred in the year 79, when Pompeii and Herculaneum were de, stroyed. Then followed a long period of apparent rest. In 1066, floods of lava were again belched forth, and since that time, about sixty eruptions have occurred. The most conspiou ous of these were in 1779, in 1794, when the town of Terre del Gtaco was destroyed ; in 1822, in 1855, de stroying the village of Ceroolu, and in 1858, '59 and '61, when the eruptions were especially marked for their ter rible grandeur.
