' The Czar of Russia was married on Friday night laut to the Princesa Doo NAB. A difficulty has occurred in the managemo nt of the affaira of the Associated Prose in Now York, which may rondar our telegrams moagro for a short timo. Wo do not think dotails of sufficient importance to publish, and hopo that tho matter will soon bo satisfactorily arranged. leo a half inch thick was formed in the gutters of tho streets in Bangor, Maine, last wook. Sixteen churches have heon commenced in Wash ington city during tho prosont year. A Methodist Church, in Brooklyn, organized ?ight years ago with CO members, now numbers 700 communicants, with 800 Sabbath-school achol ara, and owns property to tho amount of $100,000. Advices from Chihuahua state that sixty Ameri can officers had reached that city, and that thoy would soon bo commissioned by JUAREZ for Berrico in the Liberal army. Tho New Orleans Times predicts that the sugar crop in Louisiana of 1867 will roach one hundred thousand hogsheads, against six hundred thousand in 1861. Of tho twelve hundred and fitty-six children, be tween tho ages of four and sixteen, in Killing ly, Ct., loss than one-half attona school. The fac tories absorb thom. Governor BBOWNLOW'S message to the Legisla ture of TennoBseo discusses the question of negro suffrage, and expresses the opinion that President JOHNBOM and othors are endeavoring to overthrow the State Government. JOXIA DEAN HATOS, the actress", has secured a divorce at Salt Lako. The divorce was granted in the summer by tho Probate Court, but without a hearing from Mr. HAYNE. After he was heard Irom, the former decree was confirmed. A correspondent of tho Cincinnati Gazette esti mates the population of Cincinnati at 210,000. In 1826 that city contained but 16,000 inhabitant?; Newport and Covington wore petty villages; the suburbs wero nothing; no railroads existed, and turnpikes wero unknown. Among tho successful candidatos for the Assem bly in New York are two reporters-JOHN C. JACOBS, of the World, who is elected in the Ninth Assembly District, and PATEICK READY, of the News, who is oloeted io represent the Third Dis trict io the Assembly. The receipts from ouetoms at the ports below mentioned, from the 20th to the 31st uit., were as follows: Boston, $586,088.05; Baltimore, $145,203.53. Prom the 20th to the 27th of October thero was received from this source at Philadelphia, $187, 021.81, and at Now Orloans $77,510.57." The consolidation of the Alabama andTennoRsee River Railroad, the Goorgia and Western AUantio Railroad, and tho Dalton and Jacksonville Railroad Companies, has boen perfoctod, and the consolida ted companios placed undorconrrol of the Alabama and Tonncsseo River Company, with Goneral JO SEPH E, JOHNSTON President. The Bangor, Maine, Whig says the lumbering bu siness ofthat Stato for tho past season-especially that of the Ponobscot and Aristook Valloys-has been vory prosperous. In consequence of tho ample supply of water for sawing, and the lively demand for sale, tho amount manufactured and sold has boen very much larger than that of any year for a long timo paat, and tho prices have beon good and remunerative. Tho Bangor survey is already some sixty millions in advance of that of last year, and will probably go twonty or thirty higher (say two hundrod and twonty-flvo millions in all), if tho river continuos open into December as usual. This large manufacture, survey and sale must, wo suppose, leavo over a smaller sur plus of old logo for noxt year's consumption than usual. Thero is a belt of country extending from North Carolina to Texas, including the northern and cen tral pointe of tho intervening States of South Caro lina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana, which, in consequence of the failure of the cropB, is threatened with tho most direful calamity that can befall a people-a stato of destitution denoting the approach, and, it may bo, tho actual prosonce of lamino boforo tho maturity of tho crops of 1867. During the week past 850 omigrants passed westr ward through Columbus, Oliio. Immigration dur ing the wintor and spring will bo vory brisk. Thou sands of emigrants await at Bremon for paeaago room to America. , Tho Ohioago Post is alarmed obont the present and Tpiospoctivo condition of tho harbor of that uity. It ia Informed that ia is the opinion of son* of those who h?vo tho boat opportunity of know ing the foote of tho oaso, that t io oxtonsion of tho north pier, rooontly modo by the oily, has been of vory littlo n BO.

CHARLESTON" -? ? ? MONDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 12,1806. THE REFORM AGITATION IN GREAT BRITAIN. The reform ngitation in Great Britain is attracting much attention. The fooling there is intense-more intense, perhaps, in the lower stratas of society than it has ever been upon any other purely political question, while here, also, there is some excitement upon the subject. Wo have ourselves subordinated law to popular volition; obliterated distinctions; abrogated the restrictions of organized society; hoisted Iho masses; realized whatever there may be of utility or grace in the social principle that "everybody," except of the luckless people at the South, "is as good as everybody else, and a little better ;" abolished the undcr-crust to the pie of state, brought our entire population to the upper, and with a feeling common to innovators, have had an overweening solicitude to see others follow our example. Wc are irritated that England should still preserve the order of her traditional system ; that her ship of state should still Bail erect and onward, with just proportions of sail and ballast ; that its bottom is not upward, as it ought to be ; that the cargo is not flooded with bilge water, and that lhere has not thus boen that due administration, for a time at least, of political or poetical justice, applicable to a people so perverse as to acquicsoe in natural forms, without anticipation of the juster views that wc may come to have upon the subject. To the movements there occurring, therefore wc look and listen with especial interest. It is agreeable, in that it indicates social disturbance. People who act of their own evidences rather than of our example-who go by experience rather than by preconceptions-ought to bo disturbed; and particularly agreeable in the fact that it is a political ground-swell ; that the privileged classes will only suflfer, and that the masses only will advance, and #hat too without (he assurance that they shall be elevated also to the wisdom and ability to make proper use of such advancement. Of the fact that there is .what may be called a ground-swell in England, there can be little question. Mr. BRIGHT is almost the only man of distinction connected with it. Mr. HILL, Col. DICKSON, and Mr. SCHOFIELD, and others of respectability, have concurred to a limited extent ; but generally the higher classes, either in respect of social position or intellectual attainments, have kept aloof. There seems to be a common feeling, as well in the one class as the other, that it is a movement to disturb existing political and social relations ; to ad vance the masscB nearer to a control of the policy and actions of the empire ; to give them jurisdiction of its traditional principles and forms ; and Mr. BnicnT, in his recent speech at Glasgow, in allusion to the fact that the hull' of Scotland is owned by about a dozen men, would seem to have indicated the purpose to bring his people up to the consideration, if not to the rc-arrangement of some of the mate rial conditions of the country. Now all this may be well. It ?B proper that there should be a balance in the social and political condition of every people. The people are necessary to the government. The govern ment is necessary to the people. The poople could not exist in a state of society without the government. The government could not exist at all withoutthe people. Both constitute conditions of a living whole ; and if it be true that the government is oppressive-that the people are unnecessarily trammelled byit-that a wider range of individual liberty or individual power would be equally consistent with the well-being and stability of the government-then that wider range they ought to have. The State ought to have the impulse which, in a state of unfettered freedom, they could give it. But still it ?B to be remembered that there are no natural indications of the point to which the power of tho people may go without endanger ing the stability of the government. It seems to be conceded here that in that direction of individual liberty there ?B no danger; that all restrictions are objectionable; that popular volition should be supreme; that it should supersede laws, constitutions, forms and tra ditions ; that the vox populi is in fact the vox Dei, oven in the most natural sense of that expression ; that to that end the voice may bo taken from the very lowest depths ; and that thus only, where the voice of the people, com ing from the very lowest depths of society, shall, like the rams'-hornn at Jericho, be potent to roar down the political ramparts of the coun try, can we glido over their ruina to the real ization ofthat Utopia which is the object of our dreams. But wo know that this pleasant illusion is not thus to be realized. We know that no peo ple wero ever Bufficicntly elevated to bo without a government; that the volition of the mero masses of society cannot be directed wisely or rightly ; that it will bo swayed by prejudice or passion; that it will bo direct eil against all that is atablo in society, all that may tend to impedo their progress, all that is elevated which may tond to depress them ; that a government in Bomo form, even in such circumstances, must exist, and that the go.vornment so existing, with out power of its own, but of this volition of the masBcs, will bo but tno expression of the lowest tendencies of our natures,-the instrument by whioh one section of the mass will inflict ita vicious or brutal feelings on another; and inas mucli, therefore, as human nature at best is weak, and its greatest weakness ia at tho baso of the social fabric, and as thoo? nt tho base of the social fabric aro noeeaaarily the most nu merous, the depression of the government and its subordination to popular volition is not lib erty in any proper sense. It ia bul tho sup pression of reasonable and developed institu tions to the rudcBt forms of popular tyranny; ?.?? ? .'':'?? V.l ' -' I and it is evident, therefore, that, to the well being of the State, the balance must be pre served; that but a certain amount of individual liberty is possible, and that the realization of tho idea in this country can never lead to that millennium of peace, prosperity, and progress, the hopes of which are so fondly cherished. It may weli be doubted, therefore, whether the well-being of England, even as to her lower classes, is to be advanced by an extension of the elective franchise. That tends slowly, per haps, but surely, to the subversion of existing orders in that Slate. It puts power in the hands of men who cannot fail to use it. They cannot ultimately ?pare orders and institutions which ave in the way; the achievement of the one so-culled reform is but the precursor of another; with each they acquire the power more imperiously to demand it. Already, at each suc cessive surge, the Ministry has fallen; it will surely fall now in the track of tho present movement. When another comes with still more radical demunds, another Ministry will as surely fall before thal. Villanagc has ceased. The Commons class has bridged the chasm betweeu the peasant and the peer; hereditary power already totters from repeated blows; reforms but widen to democracy; democracy to subver sion of all forms of law restrictive of volition; and so it. is, therefore, that-this movement in England, which is commendable in process, may be fatal in result; that while it widens lib erty it encroaches upon the government,-that while it advances a part, it breaks the whole, and that the peoplo to be blessed will come to (heir estate in the ruins of a system in con sistence with which only is that estate to be enjoyed. , Perhaps it is not to be averted. In the na ture of things, perhaps, there ia a necessary tendency of the masses, unchecked by despot ism, to encroach upon the organic structure of the State, and ultimately to put it under. Such a tendency has been exhibited for many years in English history; it exists here; it existed in Greece and Rome; in all countries, in fact, j where lhere have been developed constitutions. When met by despotism it does not become apparent, but when ?States to any extent are representative, representation naturally widen?: with all the earlier steps there is progress and improvement; the State requires, al every move, the greater forces of individual intellect and character; but as momentum is acquired ns the franchise is widened, the centre of representa tion sinks it to the move and more of lower cle ments; it takes the prejudices and passions, and ultimately the interests, of a lower strata. Gov ernment comes from the heels rather than the head of the society, and the necessary result of sucha process indefinitely continued is kakis tocracy centered. Nor once started, is it appar ent where it may be stopped. The intelligence of the higher classes gives no limits, for they be come superseded. The instincts of the lower classes gives no limit?, for it is not to be sup posed they can be perceptive of the evil. The system cannot right itself. It ?B possible, there fore, that England can of herself offer ef fectual resistance to the progress of this disor der, and must ultimately become the victim. But the subjection of that great State to such a fate is hardly sufficient to inspire us with feel ings of lively satisfaction, and a juster feeling, therefore, would oppose a further progress to such questionable ends. -m~m.-m OUR RAILROAD CONNECTIONS WITH THE WEST. The following we clip from the Augusta Con stitutionalist. We thank our cotemporary for commending tho subject of our editorial to its Georgia and Tennessee exchanges. The ques tion is one which demands immediate attention, and we hope at an early day to speak more fully upon it: AN IMPORTANT HATTER.-We publish an artiolo from the Charleston N_w_ on the eubjoot of tho railroad connections from that city to tho West via Augusta-which reveals a condition of aflaira that should at one. attract the attention of all tho groat interest- in this city-nay, more, it ia worth considering whether the railway interests of tho entire State of Georgia are not interested, and es pecially the port of Savannah. If the distant port of Portsmouth, Virginia, is to supply carriage facilities for merchandise over the mountains of East TennoHfioo to be distributed from Atlanta, and is to gather up the cotton orop of Georgia at that point, to be taken to a distant market over eight hundred miles of railroad on an interior and circuitous route, it would seem strange indeed. Wo beg our Georgia and Tennessee exchanges to publish the article, and would nrgo joint action by Savannah and Charleston to defeat this scheme, which, if allowed to be carried out, will bo ruinous. -te? THE GREENVILLE RAILROAD. 0 . We take great pleasure in stating that the Greenville llailroad has published- a tariff of rates for cotton, which will bo a sufficient in ducement for shippers to make use of HUB means of transporting their supplies to a mar ket? The rates aro as follows: Littleton and Alston, per bolo of 400 lbs.$ 60 Hopo's, Pomoria, Frog Lovel and Newberry, por balo of 400 Iba. 1 00 Chappoll'e and Ninoty-Six, por bale of 400 lbs 1 25 New Market, Greenwood, and Ookosbury, por balo of 400 fts.1 60 Donald's, Abboville, Honoa Path, Belton, An dorson, and WilliamBton, per bale of 400 ttB . 2 00 Grove Station and Greenvillo, per balo of 400 Iba . 2 60 It *is due to truth, however, to state that a largo quantity of cotton has already been driv en in wagons across the track of this railroad to Augusta, from the Districts of Abbeville, Newberry, and Laurens ; and if we aro not misinformed, it was owing in part to the en forcement of rates higher than those now ga zetted, and to tho want of rolling stock to give prompt accommodation to the froight offering. Neither of tbcBe reasons is sufficient to excuse this rood. Wo have tho highest authority in Abboville for tho statement that cotton was tak en from thal station by wagona to Augusta, at about railroad rates to Columbia. This compe tition should have been met at once. If ncccs aary, the wagens shpuld havo been driven off, oven if a reduction to fifty cents waB necessary to do it. AB ' to the want of cara* that might have been arranged, for by .conference with the South Carolina Railroad, we hare no doubt but that one or more sp?cial .'through trains" per ? / ? " . .; , . . .-..? " ?-.?-?. * '*,i_-.j_. .*-..-.. . ." ' ? ..- ' - week would have been sent up on that road to have done this work. Whore there is a will there is a way ; and the sooner the Greenville and Columbia Railroad, and all other similar corporations, meet such aggressive movements against their very exist ence, the better it will be for all parties. Wo fully appreciate the difficulties of Presi dent IIAMMETT'S position in assuming the man agement of a corporation like the Greenville und Columbia Railroad, whose vitality has al most been lost by repeated disasters und irrc 2>rtssible bad management ever since its very existence, and we will give our cheerful co-ope ration in every wuy possible to disabuse the public mind of existing prejudices, but wc wish to sec something like a progressive administra tion of ?1H afluir?. Wo believe a railroud can mnkc itself felt, for good ns well as for evil, in a business community, and the responso of the public will be as it feels itself benefitted or in jured by such corporations.
