There will probably bo no com? petition with him in the Hoe press-iu thia country, at any rate; ior the Bullock press, tvbcao processes are moro simple and more thorough, is already the favorite. The latter, prints on both sides of an endless roll, at thc rate of sixty-three double impressions a minute. -Senator Fowler, of Tennessee, has written a letter in which he takes broad and liberal grounds on the suffrage question, and earnest? ly favors the immediate enfranchisement of Tennessee "rebels." He spesks in strong and rtomDlimentarv terms of the lovaltr. under the discouraging ohorunstances, ot tbo peoplo of | Tcnncssoe, Alabama and Mississippi, and con? tends that a lenient pobcy on tho part of the dominant party is all that is required io bring about a full return to peace and prosperity.

Thero is no satisfaction in fighting with these redskins. Thoy arc obiquitcus, and, defeated in one place, they appear in another, and the first we hear of them is through their ravages. The General says that summer does not favor tho speration3 of his army against them, becauso they have plenty of provender, and know thc country 60 well that he cannot get at them. He will attack them: however, in their new winter quarters, and either dtive them out of their villages to perish In the snows of the wilderness, or de? stroy them in their wigwams. -Despite the statements published from day to day to thc effect that thc insurrection in Cuba is paining ground, those familial- with the coudition ot affairs in that island express the b;bef that the uprising there will amount to nothing. Thc population of Cuba is about 1,400,000. Moro than half of this population consists ot negroes (tree aud slave) and of Chinese laborers. These classes are powerless tor revolutionary purposes, and certainly up tothi8 time have shown no disposition to take part in the present insurrection, except a few, the immediate dependants of tho^e concerned in it. The white population of Cuba is divided into Spaniards and native Cubans, or Creoles. The first are devoted adherents of the mother country, looking upon either inde? pendence or annexation to this country with horror. The native Cubans are moro progres? sive in their views, and, many of them being educated in thc United States, have moro or less liking for Republican institutions. They would not as a class object to annexation to this country, but it must come in an orderly way, and not through annexation. Both Span? iards and Cubans are alike, however, in nat? ural love of ease and habits of indolence, in? disposing them to plunge into a revolution at the risk of losing life, property and home. Taking ont, thereforo, from tho population of tho island, tho negroes, Chinese, merchants, and planters, and thero is nothing left to base j a successful revolution upon. It is estimated, by competent judges, that the whole number of persis engaged in this insurrectionary movement does not really amount to five hun? dred persons. The region dominated by Pu orto Principe is mountainous, and the occupa? tion of tho people principally the raising of cattle They are the roughest and wildest of all tho population of thc Island, and the insur? rectionary force composed of this element is a guerilla organization, difficult to suppress in their mountainous retreats, but which is capa? ble of effecting little in tho way of organized warfare. CHARLESTON. THURSDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 8,1868. The Dally News-Tho Cash System. When the price of THE DAILY NEWS was re? duced to six dollars a year, we resolved to in? sist upon the payment of subscriptions in ad? vance. This rule was immediately applied to our mail subscribers, and at this time wo have not a subscril 61 outside of Charleston, who has not paid in a 'vance the price of his sub? scription. We ga *3 no credit, and the paper was invariably stopped wb.cn tho term tor which payment had been mado expired. The experience of the past year has confirmed our belief that the cash system is the only plan upon which a paper can be conducted with safoty and success, and wa hove therefore de? termined to apply that system unifoimly to our subscribers in Charleston. On the 15th instant, all papers for which the subscription pr cc bas not boen paid will bo stopped without further notico, and from that dato no paper will be dolivored after the expi? ration of the time for which payment has been made. In order to accommodate porsor.s who may bo unprepared to pay tho subscription in ad? vance, we have made arrangements to debvor THE NEWS within the city limits at fifteen cents a week, instead of eighteen cent6 as heretofore, payment to ba mado weekly. This reduction of tho weekly rates will go into effect on tho 15th inst. Orders from weekly subscribers will be receivod at this effice, or at tho bookstore of Mr. C. C. Righter. No. 1G1 King-strcot. Direct Trade and thc Fritare cf Charleston. The value of direct, safe and expeditious communication with European markets, is not yet fully uuderstood in the South; nor is its full importance realized in Charles? ton, although a direct steamship lino to Liv? erpool has been established with the fair? est prospec' of success. A direct trade with Europe does not merely add to the business profits of thc factor, tho broker and shipping agent. Its advantages are confined within no narrow bounds, for it is not too much to say that the root and source of the greatness of such cities as New York and Baltimore is their direct trade with the "Old World." We do not expect Charleston in the course of a generation to rival the commer? cial opulence of New York; but thc causes of the wondrous progress of that city may be made the causes of a parallel growth of this; and circumstances similar to thoso which have caused the population of Balti? more to increase in thirty-eight years from eighty thousand to three hundred thousand, may be made the lever by which to reise Charleston to a position as high and as se? cure as that which Baltimore now holds. Cotton is the chief article of export from the United Stales to Europe. It is this sta? ple, tho product of the Southern States, which is relied on to balance thc immense imports of the country. The South gives io the United States the means of paying for the products and manufactured goods of Europe. It is the Soutu alone which gives the great staple which is paid for in Euro? pean gold, not in an inconvertible currency; and nine-tenths of the pro?: growing out of the Landling and shipment of this staple and of the articles imported in t-xclinnge for its selling price, has hitherto gone into the purses of the merchants in thc North, who have, by the riches comiug from South? ern, soil, built up cities of palaces, and made themselves the princes of the world of American commerce. But charily begins at home. New York can afford to stand still. The South, -on the contrary, must move forward, or ufier commercial death. And the means of fortune and wealth found in direct trade. Charleston should export this year a three hundred thousand bales of co and if three-fourths of this could be shi] direct to England, the city and the S would be beneficed: First, by the gre profit of the factors and brokers; and cond, by the profits accruing to every < of the community by a heavy import tr Under tho first head would be included gain arising from the fact that a large q ti ty of cotton would be actually sold and shipped to England for account of buyer which now is simply passed thrc thc city. Beyond this there would be circumstance that cotton could bc drawl Charleston for direct shipment which ci not be had for shipment to thc No Economy in transportation and quicki of delivery arc the great requisites of hour; and these can be best obtained shipping from a port like Charleston, wi is reached at a saving of hundreds of rn of railroad transportation, and is open navigation all the year round. And e^ additional bale of cotton drawn in this re ner to the city would be a profit to the r road, the drayman, the stevedore and shipping agent, and through them to ev merchant and business man. Under second head the gain would be enormt The direct shipment of cotton would ? us sterling exch inge with which to n debt incurred on the other side by the p chase of manufactured goods, and th goods would be delivered here at the pi at which they are now delivered in ? York, so that the commissions and pro now made by the New York importers wo be saved. This would not be limited to t city or this State. The whole of the Sou western States would be copartners w us, and by importing through Charleston, it is their interest to do, would share in < advantage. The handling of the impor gooda would, of course, leave money he but this would be nothing as compared w the effect on our trade of the arrival a departure of a fleet of steamships and SE ing veesels-giving employment to our lab ing classes, paying dues to the city a making profitable our wharves, as well encouraging the building of our own shi in our own yards with the timber whi grows in our own forests, and to be fill with the cotton, and rice, and naval stor which are the products of our soil. J ready our railroad system is extended the mouth of the Mississippi, to the Bay Mobile and the waters of the broad Oh and the lines which are to feed Chariest will fail to accomplish their purpose if th do not receive thc encouragement of dire shipment and importation. Baltimore Las never been diverted frc her one great object of completing h "through" railroad system by the additi of European steamship lines; and she groi daily in population and strength. Liben ity and municipal good sense have help her as they shall help us, but her shippii trade has been the foundation of the whol Baltimore, when she began the race, hi no advantages, natural or artificial, whit Charleston has not. This city can be mat greater and wealthier than Baltimore, ar we have implicit faith that a few years wi seo Charleston marching on with a rapidii which no city in the Union has ever su passed. The Last Blunder of Napoleon. The Baudin affair, which has been fri quenlly referred to of late in our cable te egrams from Europe, promises to cause th French Government no little trouble an danger. Napoleon has gone so far that h cannot well recede, and each forward ste is fraught with perplexity and peril. It i one of those peculiar cases in which succ?s may prove more dangerous than defeai and where, nevertheless, defeat must, i possible, be avoided. Alphonse Baudin, a member of the Frene Republican Assembly of 1848, was shot an killed by the soldiers of Louis Napoleo Bonaparte on thc third of December, 1851 the day of the coup d'etat, while in the ac of shouting to the people "Vive la Consti lution! Vive !a Republique!" Upon th second of November, thc feast of All Souls it is the custom in Catholic countries to de c?rate wiih flowers the graves of the dead The exact place where Baudin was buriei became known to the people of Paris upoi All Souls' D.ty, four weeks ago, and a fev days l?.er L'Avenir National, a leadin] Liberal paper, announced the opening, a its office, of a subscription for the purposi of raising a monument to his memory. Ol the eighth instant the same journal printct thc list of subscribers, and the whole of itt issue, in the news shops and at tho post office, was seized by the government. Ni notice or explanation was given to the edi tors or proprietors of L'Avenir, whict printed the lists again on the ninth and tenth with the same result. As it now bec unt certain that the government intended (c prevent this publication, several other oppo guion papers, believing the seizure to bc illegal, immediately opened lists of subscri? bers in their offices, heading them with the names of their principal contributors, and published the li?ts in their columns. These papers-?he Revell, the Tribune and thc Revue Politique-aro nil of them in opposi? tion to the government, aud they were im mediately prosecuted, together with L'Ave? nir, under thc law which punishes by flue and imprisonment the crime of "mai a-iiv "ring with the design of stirring up hatred "or coutempt against the government of the "Emperor" Upon the evening of the tenth, the Temps, an influential and cautious paper, suid t hat tho rumored assumption by the adminislra? tion of the right to forbid the simple act of subscribing for the erection of a monument lo the memory of Baudin would amount to a violation ol'the law, "and would "impose on all citizens thc duty of protest? ing against it."' The Temps said, further, that it gave no faith to the rumor, and would put it to the proof immediately by opening the subscription ia ils o?lice. Other journals of the highest standing in Paris, among them thc Si?cle and Journal de Pa? ris, and ten or twelve of the most influential journals in the department.-), followed the Temps at once. Tho opinion of three eminent Kreuch lawyers was obtained that the conduct of the administration w<\s illegal, and. (heir declaration was immediately signed by over fifiy mern bei B of the bar. The papers which were seized stopped printing the lists, but the others still printed them, showing each day a greater number of tho foremost names in France, while nearly all the papers denounca severely both the blunder of the government and the inequality with which it apportions the administration of justice. Xo more seizures were made by the gov? ernment, but the prosecutions were pressed ou with vigor, and the dispatches yesterday announced that the editor of the Reveil had bC'U sentenced to two months'imprison? ment and a flue of two thousand francs, the editors of the Tribune and Avenir to a fine of two thousand francs each, and tho Temps and Journal de Puris to a fine of one thou? sand francs each. Of course no one cares much for BaudiD, but the circumstances of his death were capable of being converted into a telliug de? monstration against the government, which, by its war upon thc press, had excited the quiet and deep seated animosity of the edu? cated masses Hid the administration been wisely passive, the movement would have died a natural death; but the violent meas? ures which have been taken have excited tho malcontents aad Liberal leaders to speak more freely and boldly than they had done for many years. The puissant master of many legions is not likely to recoil from the storm which he has conjured up, and yet Frenchmen are less willing to pardon a blunder than to overlook a crime. Blunder upon blunder, mistake upon mistake, would make insecure the throne of any monarch of France, and the '-Baudin affair" is another important indication that the empire is ra? pidly growing weaker where it should have sought its lasting strength-in the respect and confidence of the people. THE ADVANCE in State and City securities, noticed as having taken place on Tuesday, was maintained yesterday, when State bonds were still quoted at sixty-three and City stock at fifty. Money is rather easier, and the whole a?pect of affairs is brighter and more encouraging. Co tat. TO RENT, PROM FIRST JANUARY next, that DESIR\B^E RESIDENCE No. 119 Comieg-street, opposite st.
