"The World newspaper has again stirred np
tho wrath of the extreme men of its party by a

curs the fo)!o wing remarkable'sentence: 'We

platform as that this ia exclusively a white
man's government, for thia was never at any

-A correspondent of the Chicago/iTihuue,
who professes to know, says that the cirrala-.
tian of the London Times is about 60,000 daily,
that of the Telegraph 120,000 to %QW} of the
Standard not far from 100,000, the Star 25,000,
the Pest ?00, the Advertiser 5000, and the Pall

w -The North German Parliament has adopted
the i&? for the institution of a new eystem of
weights and measnrec. The 'chief/feature of
the bill is that it introduces the decimal sys
tem. The metre will be the basis of measure?
ment, and the., mile .aa- a measure of distance
W?l consist of 7500 metres. Thia ie the Ger?
man mile, which at present equals 4.611 Eng?
lish statute miles, or 7424 metres. The bill,
therefore, increases the German mile by 76
metres. This law ia to go into operation Jan
nary 1,1872.
-A steam traction engine has recently been
tried in Brasil, on the macadamized road which
_*. runs from the Emperor's summer residence at
Petropolia to the bordera of the district Minas
, Seres. The engine, it is stated, ran np the
steep road, dragging a large omnibus with
ease and speed, and dashed rapidly over the
level road from Petropolia to Juiz da Fora, at a
speed of more "than the ten miles an hour at
- ?hieb the passenger stages make the trip.
The trial waa considered to be successful.
-The metrical system was not generally ac
' oepted in France until after the old and famil?
iar names were applied to the new measures
that most nearly approximated to them. The
. North 3erman Parliament has wisely deter?
mined to avoid this difficulty, and has adopted
a German aa well aa. a scientific nomenclature
for their metrical system, which will go into
operation in 1872. Thus the metre is to be
called the s tabb (staff ) ; the centimetre,
neczoll (new inch) ; the mil?metro, the
-^^strice (hue); the decametre, the kette (chain);
the litre, the karine (can); the half kilo?
gramme, pfhnd (pound); and so on of the rest.
-The New York World, in correcting a state?
ment that Sickles was restored to active ser
- vice as soon as he recovered from his wound at
Gettysburg, says: "The reverse is the truth.
Since that battle Sickles has never been al?
lowed a command in the field. Three years
later he was employed to organize hell* in
Booth and North Carolina, and was soon suc?
ceeded hy Canby. Gen. Meade can tell the
reason why Sicklea-waa never allowed to lead
troops after the occasion referred to. If Stan?
ton did not .destroy it, a letter from him to
Meade is in the War Department, declaring
that if Sickles waa ' to be cosigned to acom
^Army of the Potomac (after July,
1863), that his (Meade's) resignation would
.compelled.' "
-The stolen treasures and trophies of
Tower of London will receive a considera
addition from the Abyssinian spoils. Amt
Theodore's jewels are two crowns, one
State and the other for ordinary purpoe
The State crown is of gold, rising to a hei|
of about eighteen inches in three tiers; i
Inlaid either with precious stones or admira
imitations. The work is very fine, and i
weight euch as only the head of a power
man could bear. The common crown is
dark silk velvet, and was, no doubt, ?* *
time very fine b.ut age ha*, dimn? gJSw
ness. The robes are gors--*0"'
being made of ??8f1' fl?
and liucd ~i<* <. rich- brown satin. - T
p?u?m is very chaste, and the workma
?hip can scarcely be excelled in any civiliz
ountry. The second robe is one which The
lore expressly ordered to be made for h
aajesty Queen Victoria, but "unavoidable ci
umst&nces" fr^rvenisg, the Macs menari
tept it himself for some time, andfinally gave
o one of the German artisans at Magdala, wi
rave it up to Sir Robert Napier. The m at eris
if this robe are not so rich, nor ar? the ora
cents as chaste and valuable, as those of tl
State robe, but the filagree work of Indian pa
ern is exquisitely done. The seal of the Eil

tame and title of Theodore. It is supposed
lave been made in .London. There are al

TUESDAY MOENTNG, JULY 7, 1868.
Tne City Police,
?:: It is uncertain whether the present Cit
Council will remain in office sufficient!
ong to enable them to carry into effect a gen?
.al scheme of retrenchment in our munie:
ni'affairs, but the zeal which the membei
iave shown in the good work of makin
ncome equal, to outlay, entitles their recon
nendations to an immediate and imparti:
?rit cism. The Committee on Re trend
nent, in their .report already published
idvise a reorgar.' ition of several of th
tepartment8 of the city government, BO a
o save from one hundred thousand to on
iundred and twenty-five thousand dollar
:er annum; and make s majority and mi
lority report, each covering a bill to rege
ate our police department. These bills i
a now proposed to examine.
The majority bill reduces the number o
.egular police to twenty-five, and author
zes not exceeding fifty watchmen for nigh
luty; allows one marshal, two assistant mar
hals and two assistant captains of police
imit? the number of police horses to two
lefines the duties of the varions officer,
nd the mes; provides for authorizing pri
ate watchmen to act as policemen, and foi
be appointment of a reserve police; bui
oes away altogether with the present de
eotive fore?. This bill gives the following
ay: Marshal fifteen hundred-dollars pei
nnum, assistent marshals one thousand
er ahnum, captains seven hundred and fifty
ollar s per annum, regular policemen fifty
o liars per month, and night police or watch
im tne?ijr-flvc 4d?ll*??-I?"1"- ntnnik. TU,
ill is estimated to save fifty thousand or
ixty thousand dollars.
.The minority bill .reduces the number oi
olicemen to sixty, - with four Bteeplemen;
Hows one' chief of police, two lieutenants,
?YO second lieutenants, eight sergeants;
m ts the.number of. police horses to two;
Hows one lieutenant and six privates as a
efective force; and provides for giving to
rivale watchmen the authority of regular
olicemen. This bill gives the following
ay : Chief fifteen hundred dollars, lieu
snants one thousand dollars, s econd lieu
mants nine hundred dollars, sergeants
fty-five dollars per. month, privates fifty
ollars per month; st?eplemen twenty dc?
kTS per month. This hill is expected to
ave thirty-five thousand dollars per annum.
There is one great point that the two bills
ave in common-a reduction in the number
f policem en. This painful as-it may be, is a
eceseity ' which cannot be avoided un ti]
harleston is far more prosperous than she
OW is? No man of sense-would reduce the
- --?? . f v- - ...
umber of policemen as a matter of ihoice.
nd no " such measure would have been
ecommended but that the city is spending
i or? than she receives, and must cut down
er expenses ' in every department, until
ney do not exceed the amount of her an?
nal revenue. This being admitted, it is
>r Council to determine what is the mini
lum number of policemen required to pre
erve, under ordinary "circumstances, the
eace and order of the city. The majority
ill cuts very deep, and advises twenty-five
egular police, assisted by fifty night wat ch?
ien. The minority bill gives sixty regular
olicemen, and seems to be the more pru
ient of the two. Watchmen engaged for
light duty at twenty-five dollars per month
rill have day work as well, and* during the
lay time will follow their usual trades. At
light they will want rest, and this, it is
eared, they will be tempted to find in door
ray B and snug corners. "Poor pay, poor
.reach," is a maxim as common as it is true,
nd it is be lie ve d that sixty regular police
nen would be far more effective than twen
y-five regulars and fifty assistants. The
ost of the majority system would be thirty
houBand dollars per annum, and of the
ninority system thirty-six'.thousand dol?
are-while the advantages of the latter
would be greater than the increase in cost.
Indeed, it would be better to have only fifty
.egular responsible police, coBting thirty
housand dollars, than the twenty-five reg
ilars and fifty irregulars, costing the same
imount. There is no difference of opinion
is to the monthly pay of the police-it may
)e placed at fifty dollars per month.
The officers allowed by the majority bill,
ive in number, will cost but five thousand
lollars; those allowed by the minority bill,
hirteen in number, including sergeants,
viii cost ten thousand five hundred and
?ighty dollars. In our opinion it is unwise
.o create any such offices as marshal and
issistant marshal. The present* style of
jfficer is simpler, and as a compromise there
night be appointed one chief of police at
ifteen hundred dollars, two lieutenants at
me thousand dollars, pud two lieutenants
it seven hundred and fifty dollars, amount
ng in all to five thousand dollars, as in the
najority bill. The steeplemen, four innum
>er, are necessary for giving alarms. The;]
V
regulations in the majority hill for the ap?
pointment of policemen are highly judicious,
and if adhered to, would continue to give
the city an intelligent and reliable police j
force. But it is thought unadvisable to
endeavor to define specially, by ordinance,,
the duties of offioers and privates of-pol?**"
because all their dutiesff***?5^^q??
merated, and (hev^rtnJ* ** .nc 1, , "~
lieveth?Ub*^*1 done their whole dnty
whe?'iI,*'J0tter ?*? tne **w waB comP^ed
*ith. Tht necessary regulations could be
better made by the chief of police, under
direction of Council.
The proposition to give to private watch?
men the powers of regular policemen is
included in both bills, but the minority bill
requires'this to be done upon the recom?
mendation of three responsible citizens,
which is a proper precaution.
The reserve police force proposed in the
majority bill would be of value if it could
be carried into practice. Responsible citi?
zens, however, would not enter into such an
organization, unless they knew to a cer?
tainty that all their colleagues would be re?
spectable white meo; and if low white or
colored men are appointed, they will be
tempted to make their positions profitable
by making arrests without good cause, for
the sake of the pay whioh could not be ob?
tained in any other way. Nor would re?
sponsible men be ready io give up their
business at a moment's warning for even
three dollars per day.
Under the majority bill, the regular police
constitute the detective force. This force
requires especial attention and care, and
could not be as effective when subtracted
from and weakening the regular police, as
wh en organized as an independent force. In
this particular, the minority bill has our
preference.
Upon the whole, we see no difficulty in
harmonizing the two bills, so as to give the
city an effective, cheap and reliable police,
always .bearing in mind that our condi?
tion is such that we are compelled to dimin?
ish our expenses or go into absolute bank?
ruptcy. ~ The cardinal points seem to be
that the police force shall consist of regu?
lar policemen only; that the detective force
shall be preserved; that the chief of police
shall not be metamorphosed into a marshal;
that private watchmen, upon proper recom?
mendation, be empowered to act as police?
men; that the Mayor be authorized to swear
in special police when any temporary emer?
gency makes it advisable, and that the so
called reserve police be reserved* to a future
period. With a police force of fifty men,
with the officers named, and the detective
force, our police would coet but forty thou?
sand five hundred and sixty dollars instead
of one hundred thousand dollars, a saving
of at least sixty thousand dollars, the cost
of the police beiog computed as follows :
1 Chief of Police.... .$ 1500.
2 First Lieutenants ,at $1000. 2000
2 Second Lieutenants at $750. 1500
4 Steeplemen at ?2?0. 9J0
50 Policemen at $600. 30,000
1 Lieutenant Detectives. 1000
6 Detectives at $600. 3600
Total. ."$40,560
Thc Contt-sltil Districts.
When general orders were published an?
nouncing the result of the county elections,
General CANST retained the returns of three
districts-Anderson, Lancaster and Marion,
in order that the Radicals who contested
the elections in those districts might have
aa opportunity of furnishing proofs in sup?
port of their allegations.
The Radicals made their affidavits and
?
preferred their charges of bribery and stuff?
ing the ballot-boxes; but upon investigation
General CASBY finds "no-sufficient ground"
for further withholding said returns, and
declares the Democratic candidates duly
elected.. This may not stop the Columbia
legislators from attempting io eject the
Democratic delegations; but it will increase
the difficult;es in their way. .
; . ..' ? . -? .... ;
THE STATE LEOISLATUEE, including* the
delegations from Anderson, Lancaster and
Marion, now declared to be duly elected,
should number one hundred and fifty-six
votes on joint .ballot; but it is not probable
that more than one hundred and fifty mem?
bers will be present. The murder of DILL
subtracted one from the total, two delegates
are understood to have declined to serve,
and one is dangerously ill.
