It seems that they have only just realized what a tre? mendous item of needless expense this amounts to in the course of a year. Al 1 the papers are talking about the 'subject, and a meeting of mercantile men will soon be called to take ac? tion in regard to it. -Captain Plumacher, of Switzerland, has purchased forty thousand aerea of land in the vicinity of Tullah oma and McMinnville, in Ten? nessee.

They are men of means, and will make excellent citizens. They will engage in the planting of vineyards,., and in stock raising on an extensive scale. -Gaunt famine is abroad, not only in Alge? ria and Morocco, but also in Finland. The people in the latter country are suffering se? verely, caused by the failure of the crops for the last ten years. In addition, the malignant typhus fever has broken out, and during the past winter it is estimated that one-tenth of the population has died.' Assistance in the shape of money has been sent from England, Russia and from the wealthier Finlanders. -A gentleman who is constructing a costly mansion near Hudson, N. Y., is getting his work done at very low wages. While in Europe, he made contracts with a large number of Ger? man laborers at prices from one-third to one fifth of the wages commanded by American workmen, paying his boss carpenter $150 per year and board. These men are bound to work for him until they have repaid to him their passage money, for which they have given re liable ole1 country security. Though the men are working for such low wages, and are ex? cellent mechanics, they are well satisfied with their bargain, as they could not otherwise have raised money enough to bring them over. Only one man bas failed to come to time. -For something more than a year past ex? periments have been in progress, under the auspices of the Brooklyn City Bailroad Compa? ny, looking to-the production of a self-moving car for passenger travel on the city railways, and as the result of these efforts a new dum? my has been brought out, which is worked by a steam engine, the furnace of which is sup? plied by kerosene or petroleum instead of coal. The fire is started by a small bed of anthracite coal, which lasts all day without replenishing, as it is used merely to act as a sort of wick for the kerosene oil, which is the real fuel. There is a tank of kerosene at the point of the plat? form furthest from the fire. From this a small pipe leads to the fire, and a small quantity of kerosene is squirted in occasionally. No cin? ders or smoke are generated, but snfficient heat is evolved, the patentees claim, to keep up steam constantly in the engine with a very trifling expenditure of oiL Limited trials of this dummy have been successful -The National Intelligencer, commenting upon the nomination of Hon. Wm. Aiken as Collector of Customs at the port of Charles? ton, says : "As Mr. Mackey has devoted the time for which be has received pay as a public officer to the business of organizing a negro government, of presiding over negro conven? tions, of directing partisan politics, and of seeking a seat in the Senate, we take it for granted that such culpable neglect and defiant disregard of official duty will no longer be tole? rated, to the scandal and injury of the public service. Although Congress bas sought by every possible contrivance to protect its partisans in office,1 however delinquent or corrupt they may be, there is still a remedy for such flagrant cases of abuse as this in the suspension of the offending offi? cer, which, it is to be presumed, will be ap? plied without hesitation in every instance that may be brought to tbe notice of the President. It is not surprising that the revenue ii in? differently collected, or that the public ser? vice suffers, when officials holding important posts and receiving large salaries may thus outrage decency by disregarding their trusts, and setting an example so mischievous in its tendencies. It appeals that even thc negroes of South Carolina, although so much courted [ and cajoled by him, bave repudiated the ambi? tious aspirations of their self-appointed cham? pion, and preferred to bestow their confidence on a stranger, who, in professing less, proba? bly commanded more respect." : CHARLESTON. SATURDAY MORNING, AUGUST 1, 1868. State Democratic Convention... -. A Convention of .the Democratic party of the State of South Carolina is hereby called, to meet at Columbia, on the night oj Thurs? day, 6th August, for the purpose of nomi? nating Electors for President and Vice Pr?sident of the United States, and for other purposes. The Convention will be composed of rep? resentatives from each District, according to the rule of representation in. the House of Representatives. WADE HAMPTON, Chairman Central Committee. The Democratic Party. DEHOCBACY IK THE UNTIED STATES. What it . has Done, What it is doing and What it will ' do. By Ransom H. Gillett, formerly a mem? ber of Congress from St. Lawrence -county, New York, more recently Registrar and So? licitor of the united States Treasury Depart? ment and Solicitor for the United States in tbe Court of Claims, Counsellor at Law, ?rc New York : D. Appleton A Co. 1868. Charles? ton : John Bussell and Hohnes' Book House. The Democratic party has aproud record. Since its organization in 1800, it has, with the exception of about sixteen years, con? trolled th? policy of the American Union. Under its fostering care the growth, pros? perity and happiness of our people have exoited the wonder and admiration of the world. All that national strength and the abundance of public resources which the Republicans have recklessly squandered, ia carrying out their schemes of conquest and political and personal aggrandizement, had been previously amassed for the publi? good by Democratic thrift and statesman? ship.. The country flourished under the administrations of the Democratic Presi? dents, JEFFERSON, MADISON, MONBOE, JACK? SON. VAN BUBEN, POLK, PIEBOE, BUCHANAN. On tl z contrary, it has experienced no special Leuefit from the supremacy of any other party. Representing the genius of the people, reverent of law .and yet progres? sive, the Democrats whenever outvoted and ousted by the party of reactionists and class legislators, have.been soon summoned baok to power by an increased popular confidence and new historic vindications. It has fallen like Antous, to rise with new vigor. At times, as of late, it has seemed to die; but even while the funeral feast was being cel? ebrated with jovial wassail, the mighty Athelstane has reappeared to reclaim his heritage and drive the untimely revellers away. There is a principle of life within it, which will perish only when the liberties of the country are irretrievably lost,- when we have forgotten the principles of our an? cestors and the traditions of their glory. It is our privilege to witness, just at this present time, the reappearance of the Democracy-an event which the future his? torian will commemorate as the "Political Renaissance" of America. For the last seven years, the Republicans have had everything their own way. Every depart? ment of government has been under their control. And the people now see how these 'persuasive, trusted leaders have betrayed them. t Mr. GILLETT proves that Mr. LIN? COLN was expressly elected to provoke war that it was necessary for the consolidation of his party, and was purposely drifted into by the first Congress after his inaugu? ration, and that it was intentionally pro? tracted in orde? to secure his re-election. Thus the Radicals have given ua blood, debt and disorganization. They have shown that their ability consisted in the power of destroying. They have over? spread the land with ruin. And now, at its appropriate season, that political energy which can rebuild the State reappears. Sudden ns an Arctic summer it breaks upon "the winter of our discontent." Around us we behold a popular uprising-a muster? ing landwehr, multitudinous, buoyant, ht role, and "terrible as an army-with ban ne rs"-such, as saved the German liberties in the first NAPOLEON'S time, and such as, this year, by God's blessing, will save oars. Mr. GILLETT, who shares these hopes, has prepared an admirable "campaign docu? ment," if we may apply the phrase to a work written bj so eminent a man and em? bracing so wide a scope of history. An in? timate friend and counsellor of all the Dem? ocrat io Presidents, from the time of JACK? SON, the author has enjoyed unusual ad? vantages for the comprehension of our po? litical history. He is familiarly acquainted with publio measures and ^with the charac? ters and designs of oar public men. His creed is wonderfully comprehensive in its simplicity; he recognizes in the people the controlling power of government, and in their representatives merely public agents; to the latter, he assigns merely the function of protecting the person, character and property of the citizen, in conformity with the organic law, claiming for the former the right of seeking happiness each in his own way, when he commits no act criminal in itself; the constitution at oboe imposes civil order and limits official authority, while the amendments to that instrument are the very bulwarks of republican liberty. Mr. GIL? LETT is a thorough and earnest Democrat, and illustr?tes the wisdom of the principles maintained by that party, by examples from the history of the successive adminis? trations, as well as by powerful argumenta? tion. He is himself the author of the reso? lutions adopted as the creed of the party in 1810, and sanctioned by the people of the United States in the election of Mr. VAN BUREN. We cannot wholly concur with Mr. GIL? LETT. It ia not to be expected that he should have as just an appreciation of the statesmanship of Mr. CALHOUN as we have, or understood as clearly as we, the diplo? macy of secession. He is certainly mista? ken in the opinion, expressed more than once, that the South desired war in order to sever the Union. On the contrary, we expected peace, and exhausted every means of negotiation to obtain it. Secession was advocated as "a peaceful remedy." One of oar leading politicians offered to "drink all the blood that would be shed in the sec? tional quarrel." To the Republican lead? ers, upon whom, as we have already stated, our author charges the chief responsibility of the war, impartial history will assign the whole responsibility. It was they who flouted oar commissioners; who by their threatening fleet drew our fire upon Sum? ter; who refused to exchange prisoners; who created the horrors of Andersonville by refusing to supply their sick with medi? cine, and keeping it from us as contraband of war; who surrendered their soldiers to the butchery of GRANT, and consigned our helpless women and children to the ruffian? ism of SHERMAN-. But we have dwelt too long upon a mat? ter to which Mr.' GILLETT but casually re? fers. The staple of his book consists of what will be esteemed as good doctrine by th? Democrats of every part of th* oountrj. And it is full of seasonable information in regard to all those important questions which will be discussed during the present campaign. Indeed, the rioh variety of its materials is just what renders it impossi? ble to furnish any adequate summary of its contents. It gives brief sketches of the his? tory of every administration, interspersed with biographies of distinguished men and thoughtful criticisms apon great ' public measures. Especial attention is given to the Republicans, who are proved to have persistently violated the constitution in the principles they have oontended for and the institutions they have established-in their erection of national banks and their recon? struction of States; in their encroachments on the j udiciary and the executive; in their seizures of lands, and their bills for sta? tionery (under which head lemons, sugar, and corkscrews are included); in their spies, and "fishing committees" and freedmen's bureaus and military commissions. The indictment is terrible, and the more so on account of the judioial calmness with which the writer presents his facts and draws his conclusions. In short, the work contains just such political information as should be scattered broadcast among the people at the present time. IT SEEMS to be a peculiarity of the South Carolina Radicals, both foreign and native born, to vow that they are Democrats as soon as they are elected to office by the suf? frages of their colored friends. Judge MOSES, the renegade Carolinian, who was the other day eieoted Chief Justice, declares that he has no sympathy with Radicalism. Ho GE, the Ohio carpet-bagging SOLOMON come to judgment, and who has been eieoted Associate Justice of the Supreme Court, is now said to be a thorough-going Democrat. DELAROE, colored representative, makes a flaming speech. R. TOMLINSON, white representative, denounces DeLarge, who says, in reply, that the statement of TOM? LINSON is not true. JENES, white repre? sentative, says that DeLarge had branded his constituents and the Charleston meeting as ridiculous. DeLarge rejoins that he is responsible for everything he says. Whis? key and shinney-sticks for two are ex? pected.* THE HEIGHT of impudence : McKinlay, a colored member of the Legislature, and an ex-tailor, announcing with many a flourish that he was sent there "not to represent "any particular class of men in Charleston " but the entire community." ?o5t uni) /onn?).
