The express train from Dublin for Wicklow run off the track, and eight passenger coaches were precipitod from a prccipico into tho sea. Only one person in the whole train escaped. The Russian loan is being rapidly taken at Paris.

' WASHINGTON, August 9.-STANTON was not at tho Cabinet to-day. Revenue receipts to-day amount to from the Jury in the SURBATT case. TtnPy sent a sealed document to Judge FISHER, the contents of which have not transpired. A motion has been made in the New York- Con? stitutional Convention looking io the restoration of gold as an exclusive tender, which v^a re? ferred. . . The Commissioner of the Land Office has con firmed the title of the Rancho San Miguelto to ? MoBBiCTAS GOUBALES, who claims under a Mexican grant given previous to the acquisition of Califor- j nia by tho United States. ' It appears from ah official document, which will he published to-morrow, that CHARLES A. DUB SAX recently applied for pardon to the President. DTBHAM is the same who the assistant Attorney General eays has become notorious under tho name of SANDFORD CONOVER. He was recently convicted of perjury in the District of Columbia, and sent to the Albany Penitentiary, in accordance j arith the sentence of the Court. His application seems to be predicated in part upon supposed technical irregularities in the constitution of the jury, and is supported mainly on the services which he is alleged to have rendered the cause of justice in aiding the prosecuting counsel in the col lection of evidence, and otherwise upon tho trial of ?JOHN H. SURRATT for murder. JAS. M. ASHLEY who has been active in impeach? ing' tho President addressed a letter Joly 2nd, to Judft-e HOLT and the Hon. A. G. RIDDLE, sugges? ting that CONN OVER was clearly entitled to a par -don and enclosing the form of a paper for that purpose. Mr. RIDDLE, July 23, addressed a letter to the President, stating that he was early ?"u April last retained to aid, the Government in the prosecution of JNO. H. SURRATT, and took the gb^ueral management of the case. Tho labor mg difficulties of the case were, he says, great, and the Government is under obligations to DUB HAM for much valuable information both as to the facts and witnesses of the United States and tor the history and facts. Although in jail ho managed to keep informed of the progress of the case and from time to time communicated impor? tant facts and suggestions. ? it seemed to him.that for his services in his be? half the Government should make its appreciation of them in a way not to be mistaken. Judge HOLT also wrote a letter to the President urging DUR? HAM. DURHAM, July 26, himself petitions tho President for pardon, and on the 29th he wrote a letter to him denying the alleged schemes of ASHLEY and others to obtain false witnesses to associate tho President with BOOTH in the assassination of LIN? COLN. The paper of the Assistant Attorney-Gene? ral gives other points of interest, and is very long. 1 P. M.-Tho Jury in the SURRATT case have just sent 1er Judge FISHER. Marine Accident. BALTTHORE, August 9.-The steamer Wilson Small collided with the steamer Mary Augusta in Chesapeake Bay, near Poplar Island. The Small exvok in thirty-five minutes, loosing three passen? gers. The Mary Augusta was towed in, badly damaged. The captains accuse each other of causing ?he occident. -? ? ? .Vroru North Carolina. WILMINGTON', August 9.-There was a heavy rain to-day, which greatly revived tho suffering vege? tation. The Sheriff and Tax Collectors report unex? ampled difficulty in the collection of State and County taxes. Some parties will .-cfuso to pay State taxes upon the ground that the Government has no practical existence, and believing sheriffs will not be allowed to distrain property for non ? payment of taxes. Crops in Georgia. - SAVANNAH, August 9.-Crop reports from South? ern Georgia and Florida, say the prospect is im? proving doily. Some planters report that they expect to make tho largest crop known for tho number of acres planted. The caterpillar ap? pears in small numbers on a few plantations. From the Weat. OMAHA, August 9.-The Spotted Tails havo broken comp and passed across tho Platte, joining the hostile Cheyennes. Settlers aro fleeing for protection to the North - Platte stations. The steamer Antelope hes above Fort Benton riddled with Indian bullets. A passenger on tho steamer Imper i-it was killed by Indians lo-day. A recent fight in New Mexico resulted in killing cl J ven and capturing eight Indians. Kr J m Havana. KEW ORLEANS, August 9.-Havana, August 5 The steamer Narva, paying cable, has arrived. She started from Key West on Saturday morning, laid twenty-one and a half miles, threo sizes, buoyed ends. The average rate of paying out the cable is four miles an hour. The United States men-of-wa> Tukoma and Fountain, and the Spanish men-of-war San Fran? cisco and De Asiz, accompanied the Narva, but no assistance was required. The Narva begins oper? ations here at 5 P. M. She will start for Key West to-morrow. Marine ? Intelligence. NEW YOBS, August^ 9_Tho bark Cienjuegos, from Cienfuegos, brought the crew of tho British ship Phaola, abandoned at sea. A dispatch from Fort Hamilton says that thc steamer Emily B. Souder, for Charleston, is ashore on the west bank. She went ashore at ebb tide, with wind southeast. She refused the assistance of a pilot. Domestic Markets. NOON DISPATCH.

With that race it is now waging war. It is several months since that war was begun in earnest, and the only result thus far is an appalling sum of money ex ponded-the cost of tho unequal and tho unsatis? factory contest. Wo can count, on our fingers, tho Indians that have been lulled, but wo ore as? tounded when wo calculate the expenditures. Nor does it y cern likely that continued and increased expenditures will avail in bringing this frightfully expensive war to an end at an early day. It is easy for disciplined troops to "whip" the savages even against great odds, but the difficulty hes in tho fact that the savages will not give the disciplined troops an opportunity to thrash them. They have no admiration for pitched battles, no stomach for decisive engagements. They prefer dividing their painted warriors into numerous small bands, and scattering over the vast torritory which is the theatre of the war, sudden onsets on wagon trains loaded with such things as they need, merciless attacks on villages, hamlets, and weak frontier forts at the dead of night. Tho two par? tios in this war aro directly at variance in regard to the marmor in which it sba.ll bo conducted. The stronger would like it decided at once, the weaker havo determined to postpono tho termina? tion to as distant a period as possible ; the stronger wants to fight, tho weaker wants to slay but not to fight. The Indian appoors to have but few friends. From the discovery of thia continent lo thc present day, tho Indian kas'becu hunted, overreached, and treated with all manner of harshness and cruelty. A war of extermination has been carried on against him, extending through centuries. We are now in the last stage of it, though it is hard to say how long this may last. Now and then a voice is heard pleading for pity and forbearance toward these children of the for? est, on tho ground of tho many fine and noblo traits and qualities they possessed beforo- they woro corrupted by contact with the Christian white man, urging that just plea also on the ground that all manner of measures and cruelties have been practised upon thom. But these voices have boen few, and their eloquent? entreaties havo only touched a heart hero and there. If ono of thc baser of the tribes, or ono, whose savage spirit burning to rovonge somo foul wrong, takes tho lifo of a white man, the rising pity is stifled and turns to gal!; and tho whole race is doomed to destruction. No discrimination is mado, no inves I tigation is undertaken, tho sword is drawn, and it I is accounted just and necessary to pursue arid kill ?ho i?jured people, until they suo for mercy, and accept the conditions we lay down. Candor compels us to say that all political par? ties, from tho commencement of tho Government to tho present time, havo acted in tho samo man? ner toward the Indian. WQ mention this circum? stance because wc see in somo of tho papers state? ment? averring that tho Radicals havo saddled thia Indian war upon us. This is disingenuous. It is "Manifest Destiny," not tho Radicals. Wo behove we should have had this Indian war all tho same, if tho Democrats had "boon in power, in placo of tho Republicans, and probably might have had hostilities with tho Indians at this time, even had there not been a colossal war between the two sections of tho Union. Thero is food for reflection and room for pity, but nono for re? crimination. TUE TIMBER TRADE. , NUMB EE n. In a recent communication upon tbo timber trade in Charleston, I took occasion to remark, upon inspection and measurement of timber, tho necessity of establishing a high standard of re? quirements aa to quality, in order to insuro tho production of good merchantable timber in mar? kot, ?c, Ac. Tho importance of this trade is not, perhaps, rally appreciated. If wo tako ita incroaso as a criterion, wo should bo able to discover somewhat of its probable im portancc. I find, then, by reference to Congressional reports, commerce and navigation, 1859: Howu timber shipped to foreign ports from Charleston, 150 tOOB. Value, $1228. From Savannah, 44.81G tons. Value, 1326,504. I have no moans of ascer? taining the amount of timbor shipped in any whole year since that time Tho weekly reports of shipments from Savannah in tho early part of this year will givo a very good idea of its increado there, and hore I remark, if tho commercial reports for the city of Charles? ton, wore as carefully prepared as these of your sister city, wo should not beata loss to show, with the samo degreo of certainty, tho increase (for wo presume it has boon so, notwithstanding all tho clogs which havo beou thrown around it,) in Charleston. Wo will ondeavor to show both and refer first to thc Savannah Weekly Review and Prices CurrerU. February 8th, under tho head of Lumber and Timber: * * * Tho exports of lumber for the w?ek have been but 268,000 feet, of which 22,000 feet were shipped to Nassau, 129,000 feet to Baltimore, 110,000 l'eot to Now York, and 7000 feet to Boston. Thc demand for shipping timber is light, except for smalUots' of a strictly first class article * * * the only export for tho week, lias bceu a cargo of 331,815 foot for Cork and a market. The quotations arc ; timber mill, $7 50a$9 00. Ranging small $12a$14. Ranging largo $18a$20. February 22d. Thc exports of thc past week j havo been 797,711 feet, aud "C46 pieces of boards," ' 182,475 wero sent to Rio Janeiro, 365,320 to Span? ish ports,-44,306 feet to St. Mary's, and 205,720 and C146 pieces to Baltimore. Thero ie a largo amount of timber in thc market, but sales aro slow, oxcopt for a strictly primo articlo of shipping. Tho ex? ports of thc weale amount lo 631,578 feet, of which 435,203 were shipped to Spanish ports, and 190,315 to Liverpool. Tho quotations aro tho samo as thoso previously given-$7 50a9, $12al4, $18a20. March 15th. Tho shipments of timber for tho past wcok amount to C73,825 fcot, of which 377,176 wont to Glasgow, 196,649 to Liverpool, and 100,000 to New York. Thero were wore 101,615 feet of lumber exported during tho week. Tho quota? tions continuo the same. Now if wo take up tho Charleston reports, wo find in thc whole month of March 545,616 feet of lumber shipped to foreign ports, and 215,000 feet to domestic ports, and only 82,039 foet of timber shippod. Tho quotations arc as follows: Common timber $4a5 ; mill timber, $7al0 ; shipping, $12al5, on tho 8th ; while on tho 27th, they wore, for tho same descriptions : $4a5, $6a8, and $12al4. At Savannah thc aggregate shipments, in tftreo weeks, were : Lumbor, 1,1G7,323 feet ; timber, 1,937,158 feet prices for timber ranging from $7 50 (tho lowest) to $2u (tho.highcst). The difference in incrcaso of shipments from tho two points is remar8able, when wo consider the facilities of production in this State. We arc aware that Georgetown has a con? siderable timber trado, but so too has Darion and St. Marys. With thc sama facilities for trado to foreign and domestic ports, tho difforenco in mar? kot valuo is very astonishing, and can bo be3t ac? counted for, wc think, in tho manner heretofore suggested. Havo wo not as much ' good timber, and are not our rivers and creeks as easy of access as our neighbors 'I Our lumber-men have as much energy, and there is no scarcity of labor for this branch of business ; all that wc need then to make this business profitable is a well regulated markot. TIMBER CUTTER. THE PREVAILING PARTY. WALTERBOBO, August 5. Party spirit In ita multiplex formB, based ac cording" to its color, on interest, emulation and ! fanaticism, has contributed in a well nigh equal degree, paradoxical as it may seem, to the glory and shame of America. We say to the glory, and, with the same breath, aver that to produce tho disinterested idea of good, it is necessary to refer the mind back to the correspondent idea of evil, which, meeting with the other, forms a perfect entity of two qualities, which mutually reacting upon the effect produced by either, render thal effect, according to circumstances in their nature unforeseen, finite and ephemeral. -We say likewise to tho shame, but our mind is on the truth that this effect will bo countervailed by some principle of good, the two principles acting as centripetal and centrifugal for us, and keeping th6 wheel of fate as near the needlo as it is possi? ble for any institution founded upon the wisdom of man to bo. It is meant by this, in plain langnage, to say that man's wisdom has much less to do with the direct regulation of society than the people sup? pose, and as tho highest aim of all government seems to be to secure individual rights un? trammelled, so if this bo judiciously pursued, the collateral effects of the policy will be to settle all the less important interests of tho community on a correct and permanent basis. It may be held, thereforo, that party spirit, though an evil, is yet such an evil that if restrained within proper bounds by competent laws, may do a vast amount of good. Discussion may be unseasonable, foolish, 'or vio? lent, yet it is tho escape pipo ol' the pent np cor? ruption of the body politic. The demonstrations of a mob havo boen called the rainbows of States; they evidence a passing shower, but are given iu pledge that thero will not be a deluge. All this may bo taken as a hint at the potential influence of parties, and may enable ns to seo that many measures which aro appreciated as wiso and ac? credited to the wisdom of men who aro astute enough to foresee their embryotic developments, and to advocate them because of thoir determinate success, and e converso, aro to bo referred lo cir? cumstances arising out of conditions of society, as far beyond the control of man as anything can bo. Now, from tbiB wo deduce that tho groat princi? ples of govcrnmont will sottlo themselves if tho individual constituents of that government attend honestly and industriously to their home interests, for the home after all is tho root of the empire. But if tho individual constituents do this, govern? ment would become perfect, a state unsuited to human passions, prejudices, vengeances and frail? ties. So we have the component unities of good and ovil as tho life principle of every motivo and ever}' measure. The difficulty with tho American Government was, that it did not have a special prerogative re? served to ita law-making, or executive power, suf? ficient to restrain evil, and thereby to advance principles of good. Political associations with all their solvent peculiarities were by tho verdict of the war thrown back into tho chrysalis-their principles had been swept away, ?nd now ideas, wero to bo evoked from tho cons?quent chaos to suit tho chanced and anomalous state or affairs. It was impossible to anticipate anything, for tho events of ages were curdled into a fow years, and only the more sagacious of politicians, whoso minds were freest from prejudice, predicted that tho predominant incas ?if tho South wore destined to become radically cuanged, and that these changes would bo consonant with the interests of tho people. Jost as each nation is a constituent idea of an epoch, so each individual citizen is a constituent idea of tho State. As Bach ho exercises a power, his quota of infiuonco in the affairs of Govcrnmont. Ho is an exponent of some of tho various shades of principles which exist in the State. Now, no prin? ciple, no patriotism, is more than a mere pretense which is not founded on interost; and this radical change which wo prodlct as certain, and which we regard as not hoing wrought-the result of condi? tions beyond tho control of any party-;8 concomi? tant with tho new interests which, as American citizens, wo have in this country. And of thoso changea, what can be moro significant than tho faot that the most ultra of tho Democrat a, thoso who evinced the greatest virulonce towards South? ern Unionists prior to tho war, now amalgamate with these Southern Unionista whoso positions aro unchanged; and knowing that their tenets mast be surrendered, yet prefer to surrender little by little, retreating from ono untenable fortification to another-from ono ditch to another-until the .whole area of tho ancient ground of quarrel will have boen abandonod? We must be excused for saying that this looks like unmitigated puerility. If this be the panacea that nihilism bas to offer, then we ask that the chalice be put from our lips. It is natural that in this dilemma we should Beek the counsels of mon, who, while contemplating the grand onward flowing of tho river of events, can look above petty issues, which aro but as ed? dies, produced by the np-getting of half-hidden, yot dangerous crags; for, seoing that the direction is for the open sea, and we are prudently launched, these whirlpools of popular passion can only bo profitably Btudiod when carefully avoided. Yet, nihilism has been a favorite theory among a large and respectable portion of the Southern people. The objections against concerted action, it is true, wore not founded in reason, and could not be romoved by roaeon, Charity may inclino us to say that the apostles of this faith arrived at thoir false conclusions by correct reasoning from a false premise; but the truth seems to bo, Vident mellor a proboque, deteriora sequenlur. But, notwithstanding all thin, as before remark? ed, new ideas and principles are deatinod to settle themselves in our midst, to invest all men's minds; for those interests which "como homo to mon's business and bosoms," will be then- first and moot precious fruits. Every day wo have ovidenco8 of thia sort of progross. Old prejudices aro aban? doned, and though tho position of to-day is re? moved but a day'? march from tho fortification of I yostorday, and tho honest zealot opposes to-day with renewed hostility, idoas and principles which to-morrow lie will adopt, who for a moment would dispute this proof of the undiminished momentum of revolution? That it would bo best to roinove all tho irritating causes of discontent, at ono atroko of the knife, ia tho only truth which needs to bo enforced. Again, we repeat, that thero can bo no lofe of country-no love of anything not founded on in? terest-and the day is not mr when it will bo as difficult to find a spark of what ia known aa Con? servatism, in South Carolina as in Massachusetts. LEONIDAS. NIGHT TRAVELLING TO AUGUSTA. AUOOSTA, August 8th, 18C7. Editor Dad]] Hews: I notice in your issuo of Wednesday, that at a meeting of the Board of Trade, ?th inst., a roaolu tion was adopted appointing a committee to wait upon tho President and Superintendent of tho South Carolina Railroad, and endeavor to induce them to alter tho time of departure of tho night train from tliis city, so au to connect with tho Georgia Railroad and branches. Thoso whoso business or pleasure calls them occasionally to yonr time4fouorcd city, might well beg tho com? mittee to not only requoat, but demand that a train carrying maila and pasaengora ahall bo furniahed, with at leaat a decent car for paaaengers paying full fares. Tho solitary thing on wheel* coupled to this night train is, without exaggeration, a dis? grace to the motive power of the nineteenth cen? tury. Your Superintendent jealously guarda tho comfort of tho passongcra from Summerville, fur? nishing them with an elegant first-class coach (almost equal to bia own sumptuoua iron-clad apart? ments), but, on the other hand, ladies and children, old mon and young, aro huddled into a miserable car and for twelve hours aro compelled to submit to a fetid atmoaphore, now and then neutralized by dioico fume from tho pipo of ono of the recon? structed. Leaving your city on Wednesday even? ing last, I sent my baggago to the freight depot, but was told subsequently that tho starting point had boon changed, without public notico. Indeed no notice whatever baa been given of tho arrival or departure of thia train, certainly not in your city. After a night of nonroat, the baking process commences, and while tho thermomotcr ia 85 degrees, tho temperature ia driven almost to fever heat, through tho agency of a red hot stove in which ia concocted hot, cen/ bot cofl'eo, for tho officcra of the train. Tho coffee may have been a auccoss, thc caloric waa unquestionable. _TRAVELLER. Tho Jewish women woro once punished for adoring a falso calf. Let tho women of this coun? try take waining. THE ADDBESS OF JUAREZ to the "good sons of Mexico" assumes that they " achieved the in? tegrity of their country without any assistance." This is taunting to tho United States Govern? ment; without whose intervention tho French would now hold Mexico. The French having departed under a notice to quit, tho banditti alone could have easily overturned MAXIMILIAN'S gov? ernment. The opportunity to seize the property, the moveables, and the old clothes of thc Impe? rial Government, would in Mexico have gathered a host of rogues about tho capital that would have devoured the whole Imperial establishment. In? dependent of these, liowovcr, there were a plenty of JUDASES in MAXTMTLTAK'S own camp to have sold him a hundred times over. There is nowhere so large a number of this class of traitors outside of the United Statos as in Mexico. As they did uot die with MAxmrLiAjr, they still live to com? mend the poisoned chalice to lips that probably prepared it for the late Emperor. Tho eminent naval architect, Mr. OLIVEB WIL? LIAM LANG, died on the 21at ult., at Blackheath, Eng. Tho last ship, tho construction of which ho aupcrintended, was tho AckV.ies, which, next to the Minotaur, was the largest armor-clad ship at the late naval review.
