Archbishop Purcell, of Cincinnati, has sent Bishop Dubois, of Texas, one thousand dollars -four hundred f-r the Sisters of Charity at Bro vms-ville, and six hundred for their hospital in Galveston. -Speaking of the great pictures on the walls of the rotunda at the Capitol, a correspondent sayB : "Washington looks os if he were just about to join in a promenade of 'all hands round' with the Genius of Fame, whose face and figure is said to be a very good likeness of one of the most stylish and fashionable of the demi monde of Washington. " -A Paris letter says: "Th walking costumes are narrow and spanned aprons in front, with the same behind, over a short flounced silk underskirt. The ?aid aprons are open on the sides and rounded. 1 am told they show off the figure to per.ection, which is a thing no one can deny; but these, no more than bathing costumes, dripping with water can be called supreme elegance." -Queen Victoria's new work, "Leaves from the Journal of a Life in the Highlands from 1848 to 1861," is Boon to be published. It is a seque, to her former volume, "The Life of Prince Albert," and to it are prefixed and added extracts from the same journal, giving an ac? count of "Earlier Visits to Scotland, sud iour<* in England and Inland, and Yachting Excur si ms." The particulars it promises ot the Ute - - ' - ?-i; <v* ' ?t.'.li >-r. .?ttl? i? known to the world, will doubtless cause it to be de r with interest. -The Round Table suggests the nam e of Counsellor O'Conor as a candidate for the Presidency, and says he "unites the singular person .1 advantages of ripe experience, com? manding abilities, the highest position in the country as a oo .stitnt.onal lawyer, and an un? blemished private and political reputation to those of never having been a seeker of office, and possessing the unbounded confidence of his party. O'Conor and Hancock would form a brilliant and powerful combination, the obances for whoso success would bo more likely to increase than to diminish with time." -A New York correspondent writes: "How the condition of the South is regarded may be inferred from the report of our loading mer? chants who have just returned from a tour of observation. 'Ho -v did you find matters down there ?' I asked. 'Better than with us," was his reply. 'How so?'' I asked, somewhat sur? prised at the remark. 'Because they have touched bottom (i. e. seen the worst), and we haven't.' There was never, he wont on to say, such an opportunity for the investment of capital as the South now offers, and he pre? dicted an early return of prosperity, if not a period of considerable speculative excitement, not unlike that which, more thau thirty years ago, swept over the Weet, and laid the founda? tion, amid the wreck of mauy fortunes, of its subsequent ?apid growth and development." -The New York labor market is the subjeot of a sketch by the Now York Herald. It says that, although business is duh, there :s no? thing in the situation to excite m business cir? cles any apprehension of a panic. Most of the manufacturing establishments are beeping on the usual complement of hands, and at the old rate of wages, but aro working on half time. "Half a loaf ls better than no bread," and so the workmen oonsider it, and working on reduced time is much more-satiefactory than at reduced wages. The workmen comprehend the fact that busine s is dull and aot accordingly. The tailors, hatters and clerks are at present the only classes who have been discharged from employment to any extent, and discharges among these classes are looked for at the pres? ent season. About one-third of the clerks in the retail stores have been dismissed. There have been no diecharges from the largo ex? press companies. Tho hotels are not quite as crowded as they havo been, but there is very little falling off from tho usual average at this season. The receipts of the savings banks show some, but no groat diminution. The worst state of affairs exists along the wharves. From the shipyard? nearly all the men are dis? charged. There is lit:1c doing at machine and boiler shops, and, with the general lassitude of business along the river, longshoremen find their ocoupation gone. Barges and towboats lie clustered in unoccupied slips, having no? thing to do. There is a great stagnation of business among tho pilots. -The advantages cf the South as a field for swindlers and adventurers is beautifully shown in the career of a fellow named Hanna, in Texas. At the closu of the war ho came to Houston from some part of tho North an J taught a colored sohool. This not hoing re? markably lucrative, or not giving full enough scope to h's talent, he turned his attention to less intellectual pursuits, making a living nobody knows how, until a short time ago he seemed to have found his sphere as a general agent, setting up an iute.ligence office, adver? tising largely, and apparently getting con? siderable business. The way ia which ho managed it ;vas uuique. He imposed upou the ignorant and credulous negroes by repre? senting himself as a mau of great authority. He organized a small-sized Freedmen's Bureau on his owu account, sot up a court and ap? pointed a sheriff to serve and execute his writs. Under his orders the property of freedmen was seized in numerous instances and sold for dobt, hearts agent, putting tho money in bis own pocket. In one oise he sont bis sheriff to a colored church whea the congregation was assembled, who read to them an order from Hanna to the effect that if -they did not pay fifteen doliars rent bo would close the house a'.d put a ball and chiiu on the preacher. The money waa !brthcomin<r. Ho mado arrests with perfect impunity and conducted the busi? ness of his neighborhood In a very thorough aud, to him. lucrotr-e manner. He ha* just played out his little rame, having boen arrest? ed the other day on the complaint of two freed? men of more than ordinary sagacity, who couldn't see why Hat na should seize and sell, tor bis own benefit, their wagon and mule. This is only one instance of the "revival of business" at the South. CHARLESTON. SATURDAY MORNING, JANUARY ll, 1868. Loyal Armed Police Force. General CANBT las authorized the organ? ization of an armed police force in four counties of North Carolina, to oonsist of loyal whites and blacks, in the ratio of the numbers of regisU red voters. Of the particular circumstances which have led to the issuing of this order, we know nothing whatever, but they oannot well have been suoh an to warrant a proceeding that gives the njgro tho control of the white man in avery district where the blacks have the registered majority. It is hard and painful enough to bear the con? stant idleness and pillering of the country freedmen; it is harder still to hear in silence that black loyal leaguers have be? come highway robbers, and have deliberate? ly fired into a cir filled with sleoping pas? sengers; it would be impossible to endure the tyranny that might be expected from a negro police who, proud of their little brief authority, could use their position for every purpose >f insolence, violenee and wrong. The establishment of a negro police will do more to breed deadly enmity between the whites and the blacks than years of military despotit m. This people had rather see a white United States soldier at every street corner, ind at every house door, than be at the mercy of the caprices of an ignorant negro who is talked at, preached at, and written at, until he is persuaded that he is of right the master of creation and the appointed ruler of this Southern oountry. Negro police will not produce security, or justice, or peace; they will not encourage friendly feeling or assist our reconstruction. On the contrary, they will excite uneasiness, horror and ma-m ; and will be the fruitful and perpetual source of fighting and bloodshed. This the colored people themselves can understand. They know, as well as we do know, that this plan can never secure to them the civil privileges of which they are so proud ; the;/ know, better, perhaps, than General CASEY can know, that such a movement would be ruinous to their most valued interests. It is a mookery to say that the loyal polioe organization shall not be used for a perauum or Juma?. r - r- mu - -~a_ is a tool in the hands of the politician, and is used or abused as bust serves the need of the ruling pa 'ty. He has not the judgment or discretion to enable him to act with im? partial independence, and, whether as a loyal armed policeman, or a loyal leaguer, will be governed by prejudice and passion. Earnestly und sincerely lt is hoped that South Carolina may be spared the painful humiliation which bas fallen upon our sister State. If attempted here, it will bring about a host of troubles; it will array white against black and race against race ; it will inaugurate a carnival of crime that General CANDY, with all the troops at his command, nay find it difficult to check and impossible to control. The Corn Question. It has been generally known from market reports anti other sources, that during the past year our State purchased a large amount of corn from abroad, larger, we think, than at any previous period in her history. Ve have been at some pains to procure dat J on this subject from the offi? cers of the South Carolina Railroad, whioh will give ar approximate idea of* the extent of the scaroity of the staff of life within our hordern during 1867. In June last we made some inquiry on the subject of the freight agent at Blackville, one of the larg? est distributing depots on the road, and were informed that tho receipts at that station during the spring and summer were about three thousand bag? a month; and that scare ;ly a single planter along the Edisto, Saltkehatchie, or Savannah rivers had made corn enough in 1866 "to do him" a faot unprecedented in the history of South Carolina agriculture. We find from the data furnished us by the South Carolina Railroad Company, that from November 1, 1866, to November 1, 1867, 146,729 bags of corn were transport? ed over that road to Columbia, destined for that city, ind points beyond; 36,330 bags to August i; 48,365 bags to tho Hamburg way stations, and 65,006 to thc Columbia way stations; giving a total of 296,936 bags, or ?00,000 bushels of corn, moved by the South Carolina Railroad. It is tr ie 100,000 bushels of the above went to Georgia, and a fraotion of the 75,000 bushels shipped to Columbia may perhaps have found its way to North Caro? lina, but this is fully counterbalanced by the 102,855 bushels supplied through the Freedmen's Bureau, according to General SCOTT'S leport, published in THE NEWS of December 23, 1867. In addition, we must consider the large shipments made over tho Northeastern Rail? road, thc: Savannah aud Charleston Rail? road, by the steamboats plying along our coast, and upon our rivers; from all which it would appear that over 1,000,000 bushels of corn vere imported into South Carolina during tae past year, a fact, the recurrence of which we earnestly hope, we shall never have to chronicle. Corn is needed, whether cotton is high or low, and should not be looked upon as a marketable article merely. Wo mean, it ought tc be the endeavor, beyond any rea? sonable contingency, to raise BO much of it as is necessary for the maintenance of the farm or plantation. The prtco of corn will then always be comparatively low; and with a full corn crib the planter is inde? pendent, whether colton is 7Jd. or lod. at Liverpool. Moral: Plant plenty of corn. Great Britain and lt eland. Mr. BitiGHT, ihc representative of the middle and working classes, and Mr. GLAD? STONE the scholarly and eloquent mouth? piece of the conservative-liberal party, agree substantially in regard to the wrongs of Ireland. Both have said, in recent speeches, that justice must be done. Both have admitted that six centuries of English dominion in Ireland have failed to assimi? late the two peoples. Both have declared their belief that liberality and fair dealing would soon bring about harmony and peace. Until her grievances cease to exist Ire? land will nev?r be tranquil. Disturbance will follow disturbance; and force of arms but aggravates popular feeling, and warms popular anger. The Irish arc discontented, and they have the right to be so. Make Ireland, what she has never been, an equal member of the Kingdom, let there be, ?what there never has yet been-a United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland," and Ireland can be made a prosperous coun? try and her people contented and happy. This, the only lasting remedy, has been seen and advocated for years by all but those who, like children rather than like statesmon, have misgoverned an indignant nation and driven hundreds of thousands of industrious Irishmen into permanent exile. It would end forever Irish discon? tent and the Fenianism which has grown out of it. It would put an end to those dreams of a separate nationality which cannot now bc accomplished; for had there been a practical and thorough union be? tween England and Ireland Fenianism would never have arisen to trouble govern? ments and individuals,-to endeavor to work out national independence by imma? ture rebellion, by incendiary fires, by gun? powder plots, or by such reckless acts as those which, in London, have resulted in the death of harmless and inoffensive people. fbst ono Inno.
