Adjutant-Gene? ral Lorenzo Thomas, Paymaster General Brice and i-rigadier-General Philip St. Gcorgo Cooke. -A Washington correspondent of ono of the New York papers disposes of the generalship question as follows: "The office of general, especially created for General Grant, is tobo abolished this session of Congress, to tako ef? fect thc 4th of.March next. This will leave General Sherman in command of tho army, with the rank of lieutenantr-goneral." - Tho St. Louis City t?ouneil has been poti* tionod to print nhd circu?ate a document setr ?iug forth thc advantages of that city as a na' tional capital. St. Louis is fourteen hundred miles from New York, thirteen hundred miles from New Orleans, two thousand milos from San Francisco, and about seven hundred miles rom the Northern border. -A writer in tho Eichmond Whig and Dis? patch, who is said to be ''ono of tho most dis? tinguished statesmen in tho Valley of Vir? ginia," "after setting forth "the difficulties of our situation ; of the impossibility of avoiding negro suffrage, and of the possibility of es 3 aping other and worse evils," advises the people of Virgiuia to agree upon tho platform of "universal amnesty and universal suffrago," and, framing a constitution upon this basis, to ask at thc hands of Congress its substitution or the "obnoxious instrument" proposed by tho lato convention. -The fact that vendors of quack medicines and newsdealers havo taken to forging tho names of senators and members of Congress, and use their names to swindle the Post?nico Department out of thousands of dollars, calls or the immediate action of Congress. Thero s but one way to romedy this growing evil, and that is to repeal the law and appropriate a iberal allowance to sonatora and members of Congress for postago. Tho porsons usin them should not only bo exposed, but brought tp justice. Tho Pos'offioo Department could readily find evidence to convict the parties en? gaged in this systematic swindle. ? -Tho Cuban insurgents hold out well. It is ?now about throe months since, with only five ?hundred mon, they raised thc standard of re? volt. Though all tho Spauish troops in the island, and all the volunteers that could be or ^ranized aro sent against them, they appear to Fie stronger and moro determined than ever ?They have now in the field at least fifteen thou (sand men, tolerably armed and provided, who [have.had experience of campaigning'and of bat ' tie, and do not hesitate to oope with the veto i rans of Spain. Not only is tho wholo eastern portion of tho island in thoir hands, but they We gradually advancing westward, and even fill Havana with alarm. -It appears that tho ordinary and tho ex? traordinary abusos of the franking privilege vre not enough. Members havj not only been npr everything indiscriminately thom? as, and having a fae simile stamp of their Utygiipb made, thatev*ry moohanieal facili y n*?-,ut employe.1 "jr increasing the post? al fnoe d<;?:t .ncj, but, these dovicos not having lmadc ; ' .>? p jnongh, counterfeit stamps Iha-ve been prc^ ed in Now York. Senator "Morgan's frank bas thus boen counterfeited ,to an alarming extent, and likewise that of Representative Lincoln. Is there any better socape from thia fraud than in abolishing the whole system. -Tho Washington Evening Express vouches for the credibility of a gentleman who says, in ' its columns, that when Judge Campboll, of Scuth Carolina, was in Washington attempting to arrange terms for tho separation of his Btato from tho Union, President Lincoln pre? pared a.proclamation giving his assent. The writer says that shortly after the breaking off of the effort to avert tho dire catastrophe of' "war, a gentleman having freo access to the private office ol President Lincoln repaired to the capital of South Carolina and deposited ?with a high official of that State a manuscript proclamation of President Lincoln, duly pre pared and ready for his signature, announoing to the American poople that, rather than plunge tho country into a civil war, the Exec? utive Government of the United States ac? quiesced in the dismemberment of the Union. With this was a column editorial art icio, in slip form, wifh corrections supposed to be Mr. Lincoln's, reciting freely the words of the Exec? rative act, and challenging for it the approval of the American people. That the document waa not published was due to the intense feel. ing evolved by the firing on the Star of tho WOBt. -It booomos quite a question bow far the employment of colo tod troops in tho army .'pays," as a matter of economy. Tho r-ur goon-Gcuoral's report ?hows that for the last year, among white soldiers, tho proportion of deaths to cases treated was as 1 to 97; among tho colored soldiers, as 1 to 55; and the dis? proportion of sick to well was quito as marked. Two years ago the ratio of deaths among , white troops to that of cases troatod was as 1 to 52; while among colored troops it was as 1 to 29. General Fry onoe showed that of the 180,000 colored troops in sorvicc during the I war, 26,211 died of diseaso-a rato of 1 to 7, ox- i elusive of deatha from wounds. On the other | hand, of tho 2,500,000 white troops, only 158, 120 died of disease-a rate of about Ito 16. Thus tho power of resisting disease in tho colored soldier waa only one-half that of the white. Now, comparing these with tho figures for 1866 and 1868, we Bball see just about tho same ratio preserved. Those estimates in? clude both ordinary and extraordinary sorvico, i in peace and in war. The very important phy? sical and medical fact is thus demonstrated that colored men cannot so well oudute the fatigues and exposures of military sorvicc as white. CHARLESTON. FRIDAY MORNING. JAN UA ti Y 1, 1869. TUc Kews and the New Tear. When THE NEWS, fifteen months ago, passed into the hands of its present pro- 1 prietors, we determined to make it, if money 1 and work could do so, the oheapest and best newspaper over published in South Caro lina. To accomplish this result we have , labored with unflagging energy and zeal, i and in the steady increase of our advert?s- i ing and subscription wo disoern a marked 1 evidence that the public appreciate our en terprise and mean io give it their Bupport. We begin the Ne w Year with a larger total cir- ] culation than that of any other paper in thc < Southeastern States, with about double the ' circulation in Charleston of any other news paper; and with an advertising business , second to none. These facts, while they encourage us to renewed efforts to make . TUE NEWS still icoro attractive in the fu- * t ture, will enable us to largely extend the i sphere of its usefulness as a live, go-ahead \ and independent Southern newspaper. ( This is our business position. One word 1 now as to our general policy. ( We believe that the time is past, if there ever was such a time, when cither rien or j newspapers might live by politics alone, i TUE NEWS in ihe past has eschewed useless * political disquisitions, and will never be, , in the future, a political or party journal. j Hound io the fortunes of no clique or t coterie, free from the shackles worn by t cringing suitors for public or private "pat? ero nage,*' owing bli Amalie gflftfco to no class' but recognizing honesty and merit wherever we find them, we shall strive to make this newspaper the bold and outspoken cham? pion of the rights aud interests of the whole people of South Carolina. During the coming year THE NEWS will give especial attention to all subjects connected with the commercial, manufacturing and agricultural interests of the State. The mill-owner and operative will find in its columns the information they need as to the manufacturing and mechanical position of thc State, thc condition of our mills and factories, and their profits aiid system of management, as well as timely hints con? cerning thc best sites for the establishment of new industrial enterprises. The farmer and planter will find in THE NEWS all the new processes which may bo discovered from time to time, in relation to general farming, the order of crops, the introduction of new varieties of seed, and thc most advantageous use of fertilizers. And while this attention is paid to agri? culture and manufactures, we pledge our? selves that THE NEWS shall be excelled by no journal in the South in the promptitude and accuracy of its commercial and financial reports, in the fullness of its telegraphic intelligence, and in the variety and fresh? ness of its general news department. In the family circle THE NEWS should be always welcome; for in addition to the reg? ular and entertaining letters of our fashion correspondents and the piquant character of our miscellaneous reading, we would say that it is our steadfast purpose to continue to exoludo oarefully from our columns every phrase which might be objectionable to any sister or wife in our community. Withal we do not undertake to reproduoe a New York daily in Charleston. We shall present to our rendors in compact and con? venient form the latest and most interesting intelligence from all quarters of the globe; but THE NEWS will be pre-eminently a local newspaper. Not local in the sense of labor? ing for the exclusivo advancement of any oity or county; but local in that it will rep? resent the State-the whole State-and direot its chiefest solicitude to the diffusion of State news, to obtaining and publishing all information which bears upon the pros? pects of our people, and to the untiring ad? vocacy of every measure which will im? prove the oondition and devulope tho bound? less wealth of South Carolina. To build up our State is the great obj cot ef our lives. We believe that we have already done some good in instilling a ohoery spirit into the hearts of the people, and we are oontent to find our own reward-be it early or late-. in ihe co-ordinate and enduring prosperity whioh must follow THE NSW? as tho apostle f of the oreei) of progress, and the one news? paper which never lost faith in the future of the people and the State. The Peace of Hi? State, South Carolina, the so-called "cradle of "the rebellion," is, on this New Year's day, 18G9, the most peaceful and secure of all the Southern States. We have a colored population of four hundred thousand and a white population of two hundred and seventy-five thousand or less; but order and quiet reign within our borders, and no such thing as widespread riot or tumult has been known in this State. It is not that we have been free from the exciting causes of troublo and disafi'eotion. Political fire? brands and itinerant thieves have been as plenteous here as in any other part of tho South; but white men and colored mon labor soberly side by side, and tho business of the whole Sl?*o is in a healthy and thriving condition. The reasons of this are not diffioult to be understood. In this State brute violence and rowdyiem have always met with public reprobation. Street fighting and bruising have ever been condemned, and the beha? vior of the people has always boen marked by reserve and self respect. These quali? ties stood them in good stead when the war was over. They were not willing to mouth or rant because they had been defeated, nor were they desirous of wreaking puny vengeance upon these to whom they hod given a life timo of benevolence and care. The honor which made them just in their dealings with one another made them just in their dealings with the freedman, and these latter soon became conscious-and the feeling grows each day in strengt! - that no South Carolinian wculd endeavor to defraud or oppress them. Tho fair deal? ing between tho while race and the colored race made bad blood well-nigh impossible, jnd the freedmen, if they were not disposed to trust their old masters without reserve, were, at least, prevented from cherish? ing bitter and angry thoughts. And the jalmneBB and conservatism which this pro luced was increased in force by the pres jnce of a number of intelligent and trust? worthy Northern men, who settled in the nidst of us and made this State their home. But it would be unjust ut this joint to ail to speak of the generally discreet and ?rderly behavior of tho colored people af -he State. They have not been without ault, nor have they been wholly free from name. More than once, and in more than me place, they have shown an astonishing japacity for idleness, unthrift and violence >f speech and act. But taking them all in ill,-making allowances for their changed :onditiou, the character of their compa?? ?n?, and the use that has attempted to be nade of them-we do not fear to assert that he freedmen of this State have been, on he whole, well-behaved, and that, in their reueral conduct and increasing willingness ,o work diligently and well, they ha- ? mown a bright example to the freedmen f | he South. The circumstances which w? have re cited tccouiit, to our minu.'for the vHflerence bo ween this State and thc other States of tho South. We have no bloody riots; no am mecades; no threatening of a war o? races; io long lists of white men killed by negroes, is in Georgia; no deep-seated disaffection ind distrust, as in Alabama; no contend Dg Legislatures and rival Governors, as in Florida; no apprehension of a conflict in he streets of the capital and a certainty of a sollision between hostile parties in the ooun ,ry districts, as in Louisiana; no rnurdor ng, plundering "loyal militia," as in Ar? kansas; no long rolls of assassination and ynching, as in Texas; no such timidity md uncertainty as may bo found in any ?ther of the ten Southern States We say this in no spirit of exultation. We grieve that here should be riot or mob law in any part of this Southern land. But we do re oice that on this, the New Year's Day, we lave, in South Carolina, LAW, and OROER, ind PEACE, and that we have, on every side, the omens of a bright and happy future. THE IMPRESSION prevails very generally [hat tho last day tor filing petitions for bankruptcy, without subjecting the appli? cant to thc operation of the fifty per cent, slause, was yesterday, thc closing day of the year. This is an error. This day, the Brst of January, 18G9, is the limit fixed by the Aot of Congress, approved July 27, 1868, within which bankrupts may obtain relief irrespective of the value of their assets. -"?--??-*JP? ? ? e> 0 int.
