IN" E W S SUMMARY. -Gold closed yesterday in New York active and excited, at 41 j. -Cotton closed in New Yolk lc ss active and declining. Sales 3400 bales, at 24c. -InLiverpool cotton closed unaltered. Up? lands 10|d. Cotton to arrive somewhat easier. -Tyng's friends are praying for him in the New York prayer meetings. -The late Prof. Farraday kept a record of his experiments. The last one was numbered 16,541. -in all parts of Texas lands are now held at about one-tenth of their value six years ago, and the tendency is still downward. -Inquiry is to be made into a charge that a brother c f Charlotte Cushman, Consul at Rome, went with the Papal troops to fight Garibaldi. -Cassius M. Clay is described as wearing nankeen trousers to the Imperial balls at St. Petersburg. Cassius must want to combine physical with mental coolness. -Another elevated railroad scheme is pro poped in New York, the proprietor promising to complete a double track from Wall-street to Harlem in one hundred days. -Dickens' manuscript is described as being a terror to compositors, while Tupper's is said to be quite otherwise. Rut when it comes to the readers, the terror is only with Tupper. -The Pontifical troops which left Montreal on Tuesday, en rouie for Rome, will pass through New York, where they will be joined by young Iturbide, son of the former Emperor of Mexico. -The Radicals want a military guard, instead of a civil police, to protect Congress, so that citizens visiting their national legislature will be compelled to march through bayonets. This ls Radicalism. -The canvassers for Mrs. Stowe's new book are coming back with the statement that the portrait of Fred. Douglass spoils its sale. But the authoress insists that the picture shall be retained. -The process of conducting divorce snits has reached great perfection in the Weat. I They regularly time them there. One has been granted in Terro Haute, Ind., in a minute from the time the trial began-the best time yet made. -It is mentioned that the First National B&nk of Indianapolis has entirely abandoned the nae of the five-twenty bondi as a basis for banking, using now only 1881 and ten-forty bonds, which are payable in coin by the express terms of the law. -Thurlow Weed suggests that Congress call in the preamble to the Constitution, the Deda ration of Independence, and Washington Farewell Address, and burn them, as the peo? ple may possibly get to reading them, and that would create uneasiness. -The cigar makers of St. Louis, Mo., held a meeting on Friday night, and unanimously agreed that affixing a stamp to each cigar could not be carried out, and even if it were practicable, it would ruin their business, committee was appointed to report the views of the cigar makers in writing and send them to the proper authorities at Washington. -A Paris correspondent describes the new head-dress as consisting of a lovely black lace or. black blonde veil, which is thrown over the chignon and hangs down the back; the front part is a black or colored velvet diadem, with ruddy flower on one side, and moreover spanned with a gold and steel coronet. It is very becoming over a low ureas on snowy white shoulders. -The Protestant Churchman, alluding to the trial of the Rev. Mr. Tyng, says: ''Within stone's throw of where they are holding the court there is work enough for the spare time of every man of them-but they can spend day after day in determining whether or not one of their fellows has committed an offence, from which no harm either to morals or religion would accrue, were it repeated every day of the year." -As an evidence of what white muscle and industry can accomplish in the South, when impelled by a spirit of persevere nee, the Cu th bert (Ga.) Appeal states that Mr. Jackson Batts, of Stewart County, assisted by his son a lad of twelve years, raised and gathered the past season eight bales of cotton, averaging five hundred pounds eaoh, one hundred end fifty bushels of corn, fifty bushels of potatoes, and about thirty-five bushels of wheat in the bargain. -The evening stock sales in Now York have grown to be an institution; but the scene of operation has changed. The edict from the proprietors of the Fifth Avenue Hotel against stock and gold transactions in their halls has caused the brokera to change their base, and they now congregate at the Hoffman House The New York Sun says it is growing more ap? parent every night tha some appropriate place other than a public house is needed for brok? ers and their customers-to -assemble for their after-dinner transactions. -A New York paper says the scheduloof rents for the coming year has been agreed upon by real, estate owners. Mr. Astor, who stands at the head of the list, has announced that he will make no reduction in his rates. Other landlords are giving tenants the sama notice, and the whole real estate interest will work together in the effort to prevent a reduc? tion. Under these circumstances the unfor? tunate tenants will have either to pay the ex? tortionate rents, or leave tho city and seek homes in the suburbs. -After all that has been said about com pelling England to pay for the ravages of the Alabama among Northern shipping, it is a little singular to find that Europeans, and not Ameri? cans, will ba the chief claimants for compensa? tion when it comes to be made. According to a statement in the London Pall Mall Gazette, the London, Paris, Rotterdam and Hamburg underwriters, had large sums insured upon the vessels destroyed, and those of Glasgow, also, though not to so great an extent. Of course, these underwriters, having paid the insurance money, will be entled to receive whatever is awarded to the owners. -No end of nice places abroad seem to be begging for occupante. First, by the resigna? tion of Mr. Adams, the mission to the Cour} of St. James is vacant, and many names have been mentioned in connection with the succes? sorship. General McClellan's name has been used by outBiders, and Mr. Winthrop, of Mas? sachusetts, Reverdy Johnson, and others, are | also mentioned. Mr. Cox's name is already before the Senate, and may be favorably acted upon, as Minister to Austria. General Clay i3 said to have offered his resignation as Minister to liussia. No names Bre mentioned as likely to be sent in for his place, but the importance of the position just now will doubtless induce the President to appoint a first-class gentle? man. A difficulty of an old standing baa finally broken out between Mr. Hale and his secretary, Mr. Perry, in Madrid. The former declares that he wfll lesign if the latter is not removed. No action has yet been taken on tho subject by the department. Mr. Hole is very popular at the Spanish capital. Aspirants to any of the Continental missions should brush up their French in order to properly fill any of the positions. CHARLESTON. SATURDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 22, 1868. The President at Bay. The President has at last done that which he should havo done twelve months ago. Planting himself upon his constitutional rights, he has summarily removed the ruf? fian STANTON from the War Office. A year ago nobody would have questioned his right or power to make the removal ; now, the Radicals will undoubtedly affect to regard his action as a disregard of the law of Con? gress known as the Tenure of Office act. STANTON, evidently, is not disposed to give up his office without a struggle, aDd Con? gress will probably support his claims ; but the tone of the President's communication evinces a quiet but fixed resolve to main? tain at all hazards the dignity and authority that belongs of right to the successor of WASHINGTON. Troublous times seem to be at hand; and the country will await the i9sue with pro? found interest. The South and National Taxation. The Americans are the best taxed people that the world ever saw, and this can be shown by figures, which do not lie, except when oall?d into sei vice to swell majorities and decide a contested election. During the last fiscal year five hundred millious were collected in taxes by the General Government alone. The taxes col? lected by the States amounted to nearly two hundred millions more-making the entire taxation, in round numbers, seven hundred millions of dollars. This was the tax; now for tho annual products of the oountry. In 1860 the gross annual production of the industry of the United States was two thou? sand millions of dollars. It is not greater it this time, and, therefore, more than one third of the whole annual product of tho :ountry is absorbed by taxation. The net profit of the production of the country, na? mming ten per cent, as tho standard rate of nterest, would be only two hundred mil ions of dollars-so that taxation draws an- ! ?ually from the people five hundred mil ions more than the net profits of all tho producing industry of the United States. Such is the price which is paid for the pleasure of joining in the little game of war and conquest, and this prioe must con? tinue to be paid as long as a policy is pur? sued which makes necessary large standing irmies and extravagant bureaux, and which lands over one of the most productive BCO iona of the country to impoverishment and ' he prospect of ultimate ruin. Before the war the Southern Stales boro heir full share of tho burden of taxation of ! .he country; but during 1867 tho ten 1 Southern States only paid nineteen millions < o the General Government, while the Stato 1 >f Ohio alone paid twenty-five millions. Theso things are touching the pocket lerve, and teaching the wisdom of modera ion and justice. The North is learning ; ,he nursory proverb that you cannot ?eat i pour cake and have it," and the "plain" ' "oiks in the South are heartily wishing ! ;hat they were, temporarily at lea?t, 'Indians-not taxed." The Spreading Plague. Cannot the authorities suppress the ob? scene literature that has been imported into 1 Charleston since the war ? Have we not ost enough? Our 4.iide, our hopes, our possessions, have been sacrificed; shall we i lot be allowed to retain our delicacy, refine- i nent and virtue, as a people ? 1 Our reiders well remember what a flood )f i mm oi al publications poured in, so soon is the city gates were thrown open to tbe soldiers sud other adventurers who had oeen long and iuudly knocking for admit :ance. Yellow covered nouvelettes, bearing ; ts a frontispiece a brilliantly painted pic? ure of the hero or heroine and charged ?vith such stirring incidents as may be sup? posed to attend the career of the bold high? wayman or pirate, the fascinating seain itres8 or the jealous ballet girl, fluttered Southward. They were the harbinger of 1 he new order of things, as the dead leaves )orne upon the North wind announoe that winter is at hand. The very presence and oheapness of those wares was calculated to awaken a taste ? 'or them. The sensational picture appear- j ng at the shop window makes the passer < >y curious to read the story. And the J veekly newspapers with their gross pic? ures offer this indulgence at so small an ixpense, that they are getting into circala ion at the South. A short time ago we aw two half-grown freedmen sitting on the j ;round with a paper between them, one cf f he Police Gazettes, with whose pictured ,nd printed wickedness they were 60 pos- 1 essed as to be altogether unobservant of mr presence as we stopped and looked on. ; Vhat must be the effect, upon tho young, of uch reading ? Will not the licentious tories and the details of crimes tend to " hange the unwary reader into a criminal ? " We arc glad lo learn that the attention if the New York Legislature has boen di ected to this subject, for the great raetrop lis is the centre where these obscene pub cations are printed and whenoe they are ?8tributed over the whole land. We learn rom our exchanges that resolutions have 0 een adopted by the Assembly, instructing ie Judiciary Committee to take action upon s ie matter and report some measure to ar ist the evil. In that State the number of tese vile publications illustrated with filthy ood cuts, has rapidly increased, and they are hawked with impunity about the streets, and exposed for sale on the news stands and the railroad routes. The Philadelphia authorities and superintendents of several railroads have not waited for legislation in the matter, but have peremptorily forbid? den their sale within their jurisdiction. Should not Charleston also take action at once in regard to this subject ? It will be too late to establish a quarantine after the disease has become an epidemic. Such bonfire as SAVONAROLA had in Florence, a sacrificial flame in which licentious statues, pictures and books perished, should be kin? dled in every oity of our land. What say the Mayor and Aldermen of Charleston ? IRELAND CANNOT BB pacified by sweet promises or pretty speeches. The time for half-measures has passed. Irishmen are in arms for their country, and Englishmen begin to say-"Let the authority of the English Government perish rather than be maintained by iniquity. Better it is to hang or drown peo;-! at once than, by unrelent? ing persecution, to beggar and starve them." Co Bent. TO RENT, THAT FINK HO L'S K, No. 391 ST.
