He will travel in Europe until after the Presiden? tial- election. -There ia a movement among - the leading members of the. Radical party which looks to a postponement of the entire question of South? ern representation in Congress until next win? ter. A correspondent of the Boston Herald says : "This movement has created a feeling akin to conaternatbn among the senators and members elect from the Southern States who. are here clamoring at the doors of either House for seats upon the floor. One'of the reasons alleged for the sudden chango of base -indeed the most potent reason-is the fear that some of the Southern States-those that have the largest electoral vote-are likely to cast those votes for the Democratic presiden? tial tiokei Georgia, Alabama, Arkansas and Virginia are specially named, and are likely to be kept cut from this fear. " -The'Neir YorkiKmessays: We oongra .t?late Baltimore on her good fortune and- j i good proapocto.

The bill has yet to bo acted on by the Senate. A measure like this, however, seems to be in accordance with the vast development which may be ex? pected in the interim:. That section of the country is filling up every day with an ever-in? creasing tido of population, in the progress of which no panse need.be expected till the popu? lation of thiS continent fl upon a level m num? bers with that of Eu?pc. In this great central section, which has bean compared to the body of . bird, of which the Atlantic and Pacific slopes are tibs wings, the trade .and commerce of Eu? rope and Asia will in timo, bo conveyed in un? broken packages and with the utmost dispatch, - With the completion of the Pacific railroad, goods may enter on either side, and be sent to the heart of the continent. -The Journal of Commerce calls loudly up? on Congress to adjourn at once without mak? ing a bad record any worse, and let its mem? bers; devote themselves to the arduous task of Jnstirymg their actions to their constituents. Itsa.s:-"Wo do not now re jail any session of .congress at which so mach has been said and so little done asst this ono. It will proba? bly- occupy more, space in the Congressional Globe, and less in the pleasant recollections of. the people, than any other in our history. It has attempted but one great thing-the removal of the President and in that it has failed. For three months, as we find by the calendar, all the Radical talent of the House has ad? dressed itself to the accomplishment of that single object. All the important legis? lation of the country-everything that related to finance, commerce, Southern reconstruc? tion, she addition of new territories to the pub? lic domain, all matters that were judicious and practical, and that the people took any real interest in, were flung into the corners of committee rooms, in order that the House might make faces at President Johnson. They have made their faces-some of them very ugly ones, we must say-but the President still remains unharmed at the White House; and all that Congress can show for the past quar? ter of a year, is an enormous bill (some hun? dreds of thousands of dollars, it is said), for impeachment expenses, and several hundred pages of bad rhetoric and worse temper in the Globe," . Queen Victoria has delighted the-hearts of tho loyal tradesmen of London by again ap? pearing in public on the occasion of the cere? mony of laying the corner-stone of St. Thomas' Hospital, and the display was sufficiently t liant and imposing to gratify the moat exi Lug. . If loyalty has been slumbering dui the retirement of her Majesty, it certai woke refreshed on seeing, her again in pub We read that nothing could ^exceed, if, ind? it cculd equal, the cordiality with which i was received; that the enthusiasm was bou less, and that it WSB not to be ""allayed, broke out. irrepressibly at intervals after arrival of the royal party. The Queen mt fained her role of widow in her address, m ti orung the "solace" which she derived fr "following the example" of her "beloved h band;" but her loyal subjects were willing pass over that, so long as she did not seek s itude with her sorrow. The withdrawal Balmoral may possibly offset this concessi for there is no loyalty so sensitive as thal the pocket. The West Encl tradespeople ht an idea that the court was established for th especial benefit and the encouragement of 1 sale of dress goods. They became terribly ? loyal when the Queen's retirement was p -longed, hinted abdication, and talked of i duties of her Majesty's station. It was c tainly good policy to conciliate this class by occasional appearance, but it would be bet yet, for her successor, at least, should Victo be even more assiduous in her endeavors strengthen the hold of the crown upon I affections of the people. CHARLESTON. -0 THURSDAY MORNING, JUKE 4, 1968. "Lay on, Mao baff." [Shakespeare-Ahenx ! Oar amiable neighbor, the Mercury, again sorely troubled, and this time becau THE DAILT NIWS has declared, and now d clares, the necessity of thorough reform the management of the municipal affairs Charleston. - Opposition to any ides whit is not at least "a century dead" was to 1 expected from the Mercury, for it is natl ral that ajournai which is notoriously ol etinate and stationary itself, should oppoi everything practical and progressive i others. This denunciation, therefore, wt anticipated; and having happily encounter? the avowed hostility of the Mercury, tt success of our proposed reforms is airead half accomplished. For the members of the old City Counc .we entertain a high respect, and we hav not hesitated to condemn their removal i plainer terms than oar neighbor cared t use; Their motives and spirit have no been impugned by us; nor has any neglec of duty been laid to 'their charge. The; held office upon a precarious tenure; the; knew not when the aentenoe of.decapitate might be passed, and they might well, unde: the circumstances, '? have* hesitated to inau gurate any extensive scheme bf municipa regeneration. With the past' management of the city we, therefore, have nothing tc do. Our dealings are with tho live present, and the doubtful future; not with the dead and immutable past. We take Charleston as lt is, without censuring any man or set of mien; and will not cease in our endeav? ors until, by hook or by crook, expenses are brought down to the level of receipts, until taxation is lowered, and the marks of improvement are so patent as to encourage that growth of trade which will make the Load of our city debt easy to be borne. The Mercury talks glibly about "clap? trap,"-and no Southern journal knows bet? ter what "clap-trap" is-but it cannot dis? guise the fact that reforms are imperatively iemanded, nor hid ? ita vexation at the con? sciousness that, wit a or without its approval, those reforms will be accomplished. Can the Mercury deny that the city is aead-ovejkears in debt,-that the debt is increasing daily, and that drawing notes on the future is making bankruptcy inevita? ble ? What, then, would the Meroury do ? Would it counsel Charleston to stagger ilong, living from hand to mouth, reckless of credit or reputation, and trusting to a miracle to lift it out of the slough ? Or, would it advise the city, as THE NEWS has lone, to make out a balance-sheet, calcu? late income, equalize receipts and expendi? tures, and show its determination to work its way out of debt by at once checking the accumulation of liabilities ? . We wish to see applied to the government of Charleston the principles that govern the prudent merchant in the conduct of his business. We do not advocate anything simply because it is new, any more than we condemn anything only because it is old. Each measure is judged by its merits and results, without reference to its age, origin or traditional authority; aud if any busi? ness mau can be found who declares that Charleston connor be better administered than it has been, public opinion will advise his prompt removal to the State asylum for lunatics. City Reforms. It may be said that it is useless to point out a disease without suggesting a remedy, and in the propriety of this feeling we fully agree. Into details we cannot at present go; but we can refer briefly to those meas? ures which, in our opinion, are necessary for the adjustment of the city to the present condition of affairs, and to bring about its extrication' from its growing embarrass? ments. These measures are, in brief, as follows : To make the Mayor an executive officer with the power of vetoing ordinances. The City Council to elect its own president, and pass ordinances over the veto by a two thirds vote. To make full provision for taking, asses? sing and paying for land necessary for open? ing streets, or for other public improve? ments. To limit the amount of fines that may be imposed by the city. To prepare a thorough system of drain? age, so that every dolur expended may do its part towards the completion of a gene? ral plan. To authorize the removal of any city offi? cer by the vote of Council. To abolish the unprofitable and unwise tax on the gross sales or receipts of mer? chants and others. To change the system of street improve? ments, so that the cost of local improve? ments shall be borne by the property im? proved, and not by the whole city. To limit thc total amount of taxation that may be imposed for any purpose. To cut down expenses until they do not exceed the income, and to do this not'' by-j decreasing'-the salaries Of employees, but j by diminishing their number. K To so aot that-if the city is-taxed as it is now, it Bhall be for the payment of-interest | upon the city debt, and' that high taxation and low credit shall not go together. To modify thCcity charter scr a? ^to-gire to Council the power do any of the above things which they have not power to do under the present charter, which is. in some respects, in conflict with the newly baptized State Constitution.
