Sales - 10,000bales. -Sitka has less than a thousand inhabi? tants. -Eighteen inches of snow now cover thc ?nmmit of Mount Washington. -Brigham Young is said to be the third larg? est depositor in the Bank of England. -*The Moonstone," a drama closely follow? ing the stoiy of Mr. Wilkie Collins* novel, has . been brought ont in Chicago. -Mr. John Quincy Adams was a candidate for representative from Quincy as well as for Governor of Massachusetts and was defeated in both instances. -The New York Herald proposes that the -'campaign bunting be devoted to circus pur? poses, as it has before been used in the service of t.:o "ring." -Tho warlike rumors in Europe bave recent? ly received additional strength by the publi cation of a report that the Prussian Govoin . mer. t has been making heavy purchases ot grain in Russia for the use ot the army. -Ex-President Pierce was Well enough to ride to the polls in Concord, N. H., on Tuesday, and as he handed in bis ballot for Seymour and Blair to the Moderator, .remarked, "This is : -strong ticket." -Idol worship is* firmly established in Port? land, Oregon. There is a temple there belong? ing to the Chinese, with graven images and all the other accompaniments of a real heathen temple. -Brigham Young is issuing currency in -Utah, generally resembling the national '.greenback. There is said to be a good deal 'of it in circulation, and the Mormon Presi? dent finds his banking operations very profit -able. -An advertisement in the L.ndon Times 'announces the early appearance of a new pa? per of .first-class character, in which tho anonymous system will be abandoned. AU the leading articles will be signed by the '.writers. -It is mentioned as a remarkable fact that a son of American parents, who was born in Cali? fornia, has attained his majority and voted at the recent elections. He is behoved to be the only case of the kind. California has thus but one voter who is not a "carpet-bagger." -Paris has now thirty establishments- for the sale of horse flesh for the table,which con? sume 2500 horses annually, representing over . a million pounds of cheap and wholesome '^meat Another hippophagic banquet is to be given to popularize the diet still further. -By the bankruptcy ot the old Bank of j "North Carolina the State will lose half a million -dollars o! its literary fund, and the University of North Carolina $125,000 more. Many . chairity funds and the property of widows and 'Orphans will also be swallowed up in the same 'Way. -The New. York Tribune editorially says: ""The phosphate rocks lying near Charleston, 8. C., are supposed to be of immense value in? asmuch as they contain the element of a most valuable fertilizer. It is stated that half a mil? lion dollars hos been received in Charleston since bat dpring from the sale of the rook and from subscriptions to the stock of companies. -The land where the treasures lie have increas >?d immensely in value, and a spirit of specu? lation prevails. It is singular that in the midst Of all this we have no account of practical ex? periments testing tho valuo of the materialfor agricultural purposes. We have had similar -claims regarding the phosphate rock of other 'parts of our country, and, until mor?is known, it will be well for those with only a little money to be cautious." -A few weeks since General Shields, the Democratic candidate for Congress in one of the Kansas Districts, advertised a meeting at New Garden, a little town on the Une of Clay ?nd Bay" Counties, often called "Hell's Half Acre." At the proper time the meeting was organized, and the chairman introduced Shields in the following manner: "Fellow-oiti ? sons- f applause; few. of them could vote]-Por 3nit me' to introduce to you a man whose name ia a household word all over the land; a patriot of two hemispheres; a statesman; the companion of Clay and Benton; a soldier; the hem of Cerro Gordo; the man who poured out -bia blood like water for his country; the hero - of the Potomac; the man who came nearer whipping Stonewall Jackson than any other man-but he did not whip him by a d-d sight." -Tue New York Times, of Friday, has a pre? tentious editorial upon "The Republican Tri? umph-Its real aoo?fl and meaning." It com? mences with a statement that "the victory just '"won by the Republicans is signal and over? whelming. But its real significance ought '"'not to be misunderstood. It would bo a mis "take to regard it as au indorsement and ap? proval of everything that has been done by ""the Republican party since it has had control *V>f the government, and a still greater one to "see in it . popular warrant for doing every 1 'thing hereafter that the party may be dispos? ed or urged to undertake." Tho action o' the party at Chicago is reviewed and commented opon as "wine and judicious,'' and the Recon? struction acts are called merely tem? porary and provisional in their nature. After the establishment of State gov? ernments at the South, tho laws will become of no effect and the people bo Slanted the right to regulate their own affairs. Until that time, however, the Tinieb assumes that the Republican party is pledged to main? tain them in force. In regard to negro suffrage no new doctrine is established. "It remains, ' Woere the Constitution of the United States ""places it, in the hands and under tbe control ?'of the people of the States themselves. An .""attempt will doubtless be made to amend tho "constitution in this respect, so as to confer ..?apon tho National Government the regulation ".'ot suffrage in all the 8tates; but until that .'.amendment shaU have become part of the con. "stitution.tu?^ationalGovernment has no such "power; and as a rote of three-fourths of all "the States is required to amend the constitu" "tion.it is cot likely to be made unless the South "cm States, by'another secession, again aban "don all right and all claim to a voice in the mat "ter." The Times congratulates the country upon the possession of a "conservative" Presi? dent in General Gran* "His aim will be to "allay public dissensions, sectional and politi "cal, rather than to exasperate them. He be "came the candidate of the Bepublicans rath "er because the people at large demanded his "nominaticn, than because it was acceptable "to the more violent and Radical of the Repub? lican leaders. In our judgment, therefore, "those who expect him to be a mere passive "tool in the hands of any party, will find them? selves very much mistaken." The article concludes with an allusion to the great work before the new administration, and the state? ment that "if its wisdom prove equal to its op "portunitieB, there is no good reason why it "should not unite, long before its allotted "tenn shall have expired, the moderate, sensi? ble and patriotic men bi ail parties in its "support."

You neither need nor have time for more. The people of this city have already de? termined that Henry Jjeas Lesesne shall be their next Mayor. Shall their resolve be thwarted by fraud and intimidation ? That is the only issue remaining. Shall a horde of ignorant and deluded negroes from the country, with the dust of the r oad still unshaken from their brogans, be Buffered to wrench the government of Charleston from the hands of those to whom the independent legal voters of the city, white and colored, have deliberately chosen to confide it ? They trt'H do it, citizens, un? less you work and watch to-day ! Be en? treated to give this day wholly to your city ! Go forthwith to the poll of your precinct and vote; then ask how and where you can best serve the cause. If you can do noth? ing better, travel from poll to poll, and watch those who will attempt to vote from one to another. Spot such, and report them to our active friends and the polioe for challenge and arrest. You can do good by simply standing at the poll of your preoinct with Lesesne bal? lots in your hands. Our challengers cannot do their whole duty unless strongly backed. Stand by them, and exhort them to Bland up to their work fearlessly ! Men of Charleston ! Your city must not be disgraced by being made to give a fraud? ulent majority for Pillsbury and ruin ! You can prevent it by faithful work to-day ! We charge you to give the day wholly to the cause ! The Best Sign Yet. The Courier at the eleventh hour an? nounces that it has detected "the welcome "sound of an approaching triumph" for the Citizens' party, and accordingly hastens to hoist the ticket at the head of its editorial column, and ventures at last to couple the name of Pillsbury with "incompetency," "disaster," "financial panic and business convulsion !" Bravo ! neighbor. Better late than never ! A Business Call (o Bnsinjss ."?Icu. In ordinary times, business men may well afford to eschew politics, or rather, to limit their action on election days to the record? ing of their votes. That is not enough to? day. The election is the one thing to be attended to, and to make sure of that, let other matters stand over till to-morrow. The importance of defeating the Pillsbury party is, we believe, appreciated by all our business men. They know the danger that they run, and feel that there is no security until the adventurer and schemer is deci? sively defeated. But mere voting will not suffice. What is worth doing at all is worth doing effec? tually. And the business men of this city who realize a direct personal and business interest in the success of the Citizens' ticket, owe to it more than the casting of their individual ballot. They Bhould give to it their influence as well as their votes. They should remember that in. one way or another, in ono direction or another, they have it in their power to Bwell the list of voters, or to frustrate frauds by which their own votes may be counteracted. Personal efforts of this kind are not pleasant, we admit. The real work of the canvass does not commend itself to the taste of men who boast that they attend to their business and leave electioneering to the politicians. For this day, at least, every man ought to be a politician. And certainly every business man who understands the identity existing between his business welfare and the tri? umph of Lesesne, ought for once to put his shoulder to the wheel and render all the aid he can to crush the profligate party which would obstruct our business progress. To the Colored People. When you vote to-m?rrow bear in mind what the Rev. R. H. Cain said to you in the Missionary Record of Saturday. It was this : 1. Mr. Lesesne is aa old, respectable cit ires, k?c?? by both races. 2. Vote for the beat interests of our times. 3. The merchants of East Bay and Broad street have given the colored men work and paid them good wages. 4. We are now to turn our attention to our local interests. 5. The question now is not as much aa to parties as to individuals. C. We are willing to try the men who have proclaimed that they are willing to do jus? tice to the colored people. 7. As a Republican, we are not bound to any men or set of men, North, or South, if I we are to sacrifice the peace and prosperity I pf our city to place them in power, Colored people ! You will secure to your? selves peace, justice, equal rights, and all the blessings bestowed on honest and suc? cessful industry, by voting for Leseeno and the Citizens' candidates. Special Urtiers. 1. Let every friend of law and order use all his influence and exert all his power to preserve the peace to-day. 2. Keep cool-work hard-begin soon slick to it; and do all you can to poll a heavy vote for Lesesne and the Citizens' candidates. 3. There should be no jostling or crowd? ing at the polls to-day. 4. The election lasts but one day. Let the merchant, the trader, the mechanic and the laboring maa give one day to the cause of wise and economical government. Watch the Polls. We hope that there will be at least one hundred white mea at each polling precinct to-day while the vote is being taken. This is necessary to prevent the conservative colored men from being intimidated by the Radical bullies, who threaten them with punishment if they veoture to vote for Lesesne. No colored man shall be abused because he has the good sense to vote with the party of law and order, aud it is due to our color? ed friends who staad by us that they should be guarded uow aud well rewarded here-' after. Secure Une! Householders ! Unless you eau yourself accompauy your servaut to the polls while he deposits his vote for Lesesne, it is safer aud far better to advise him to stay away from the polls altogether. The pressure and intimidation brought to bear upon con? servative colored mea by the Pillsbury ne? groes is so tremendous that it is not safe to send a colored Lesesae voter to the polls aloae. Make sure that his vote is not cast against us, and if nothing is gained nothing will be risked. THE great question to be decided to-day will be settled in short metre. Tho hours in which ballots can be polled will be few, while the work to be accomplished is im meuse. The polls will opea at 7 A. M., and close at 5 P. M. Ia the space of tea hours the fate of the city for the next three years must be determined. Let no citizen, there? fore, fail to vote at as early an hour a3 pos? sible. All business should be deferred un? til this great public duty is discharged. IN THE Missionary Record of Saturday, Parson Caiu says : "We shall hail with "pleasure the election of a man who can "bring to his aid men and means which "will give an assurance of success in our "financial und Municipal relations." That man, colored voters, is the Hon. H. D Lesesne. THE Rev. R. H. Cain, whom the colored people kuow aud trust, says : "Choose be "tweeu the caodidates best qualified to eub '.serve the good of the city and people's "welfare." You have the choice, colored people, and if you are wise you will vote for Lesesne. COLORED mea of Charleston ! tho Rev. R. H. Cain speaks of the Democrats as your "best friends,'" and of Mr. Lesesne, our can? didate for Mayor, he says: "He is an old, "respectable citizen, and is well known by both races." LET every good citizen report to our lead? ers every sick maa who would vote our ticket if abie to be out, and then make ar? rangements to bring bim out. It may be their last chance to save the city. A VOTE for the Citizeas' ticket is a vote for peaoe aud progress. A vote for the Radical candidates is a vote for reaction, extravagance and social and political pro? fligacy. PROTECT the ballot-box. See that. the men imported by Pillsbury do uot vote here. Above all. see that they do uot de? prive any legal voter of his right to vote. Vote early. OSE VOTE may insure the honest expen? diture of the two million four hundred thou saud dollars which will be paid iuto the city treasury duriag the comiog three years. REMEMBER, that ia supporting Lesesne to-day you are rendering the greatest ser? vice you possibly could to your wives and dear littL* children. Work.' STRAWS show which way the wind blows. The Courier has seen several straws, and accordingly blows its trumpet boldly for Lesesne. GERMAN FELLOW-CITIZENS 1 Move forward to the support of Lesesne and the Citizens' candidates. Vote for your eily and coun? trymen ! IRISHMEN OF CHARLESTON : Rally around thc polls and cast a unanimous vote for the Hon. H. D. Lesesne and your representative men ! WOMEN OF CHARLESTON ! See to it that no laggard sits down to dinner to-day until he has cast his .vote for Lesesne and good order ! CHARLESTONIANS ! The enemy is at your gates! Smite him hip and thigh. Van? quish him not with bullets, but with ballots.1! A VOTE for Lesesne is a vote for honesty. A vote for Pillsbury is a vote in favor of fraudulent contracts and increased taxation. COTTON MEN ! Close your offices as far as possible and go with your clerks and em? ployees at an early hour to the polls. THERE may be a jam at the polls. The old men, the fathers of the community, should be at the polls at an early hour. EVERY mechanic should make it a point to be at the polls early this morning and cast his vote for the Citizens' ticket. FIREMEN 1 Do you want to preserve your time-honored organization ? See that every vote is brought out for Lesesne I THE polling places to-day are the regis? tering places of yesterday. Every maD votes where he registered. WOMEN OF CHARLESTON ! Say to those whom you love that if they love you they will vote for Lesesne to-day. _ _ *v WATERLOO changed the destinies of Eu? rope-to day will determine the fortunes of Charleston for years to come! Do YOU want an honest, an efficient, and an economical government 7 Then go and vote for Lesesne. WORKINGMEN ! The result of to-day's elec? tion is important to you. Don't fail to cast your vote for Lesesne. . A VOTE for Lese9no ?9 a vote ia favor of reduced taxation and economy. Vote early. RATS leave a sinking ship. The Courier deserts Pillsbury ia his distress. LET no man skulk at home to-day. The place of duty 19 at the polling place. WATCH closely and .challenge fearlessly all Pillsbury men trying to voie illegally ! ONE VOTE may redeem our city from the threatened frauds of the Pillsbury ring. EVERY man who has registered, and no other, is entitled to vote. THE Courier has got down off the fence. Pillsbury, your doom is sealed ! CHALLENGE, collar and capture all Pills? bury "repeaters." Do Y OL* want ptace and prosperity ? Then vote the Citizen*' ticket. ONE more effort and the day is our own. WK have only OSE DAY to vote for Mayor. VOTE against Pillsbury extravagances.
