Dr. Deane, recently elected Bishop of tho new Diocese of Albany, New York. -A. distinguished chemist makes the un? pleasant- announcement that every spoonful of raw sugar which is put in a oup of tea or cof feo is alive with vormin. Refining tho sugar kills tho insects. -Tho Republican caucus of the Pennsylvania L?gislature has nominated John Scott as Uni? ted States senator to succeed Senator Bucka? low, whose torm expires March 4. The nomi? nation is equivalent to election! -The East River, it is eaid, will eventually be tho ruin of Now York Bay. . An engineer has therefore made a plan for doing away with it by means of a dike from tho South Ferry to Brooklyn, with dock accommodations on both Bides. -Tho guano trade ot Baltimore has ma? terially decreased, the importation having fallen off from 46,148 tons in 1867, to 15,887 in 1868. Tho Chincha Islands sent 30,175 tons in 1867, and only 1700 tons in 1868. The high price demanded for guano, $62 50 per ton in gold, prevents its use except in the manufac? ture of other fertilizers. -The importations of dry goods into tho port of New York during 1868 are valued at 180,905,03*, ULLHUR- 1067 at ftM),aoo>i?, au^oig 1866 at $126,222.855, and during 1865 at $91. 965,138. It is stated that in August, 1865, the importations began to flow in with groat rapid? ity, and for eight months the business was very briBk. Siuco that time however, no simi? lar condition of affairs has prevailed. In the past year the importers' profite have not been large, but there have been no disastrous losses. -The New York Times says: "During the past ten days failures to the extent of about four millions of dollars have occurred in this city, among jobbing and commission houses in the dry goods trade. Business in this line has been very dull for nearly two years; it'has not paid- Tho recent failure of one of the largest dry goods houses was duo to heavy losses through customers in the Northwestern . States. There are apprehensions that a few other houses may be forced to succumb, but the leading dealers hope by rigid retrenchment to overcome present difficulties. No alarm is necessary, as we are informed on excellent au? thority." -The lives of compositora in New York city, it is asserted, do not average over forty-five years. The causes of this short- lived career ?of this useful class of workmen are to be attri? buted-to working at night, and to the want of ventilation, and the overheating of composing rooms. Newspaper offices are seldom situated in buildings expressly constructed for the pur? pose, and the composing rooms are placed in the upper story, where the ceiling is low and without the [proper means of ventilation. In addition to this, the soanty supply of oxygen is further diminished by the constant burning of gas lights. -Washington corresponde nts state that Gen? eral Butler is privately canvassing the House to find out how many members will vote to re? peal the Civil Tenure bill. He finds almoat every man disposed to wait until General Grant devel?nos bis course. The prospect be esteems discouraging, unless he eau make re? peal a party question by order of caucus. A careful canvass of the Senate reveals the pres? ent sentiment of that body on the question of repealing the Civil Tenure law, as follows : For repeal, twenty-eight; against repeal, thirty? nine. That a modification will bo agreod upon is not impossible, but that the law as a law will not be relinquished by the Senate is conceded. -A Washington letter, of Friday, to the Baltimore Sun, says: "A caucus of Radical senators was hold this morning, lasting some two hours. The call for the caucus, it is un? derstood, was made at the instance of Senator Sherman and the finance committee, and the tittie was occupied altogether in tho diaoussion of the finances. There was a pretty general interchange of views. Senators expressed themselves most freely as to the best mode of disposing of the vexed question, but in view of the great uncertainty and distrust which hang around the question no one seemed disposed to insist on his own particular plan as being the panacea, although there has not hereto? fore been so much modesty exhibited. No ?otes were taken and no conclusions arrived at, and senators generally seem to have come to the reluctant conclusion that little, if any, | prospect exists of any progress being made this session towards any satisfactory adjust? ment of the finances." -A special report from the Postmaster-Gen? eral to Congress on the subject of a general system of postal telegraphy baa been publish? ed. Ita main pointa aro aa follows: After re? viewing the telegraph aystem under govern? ment control, in connection with the poatoffice in Belgium and Switzerland, and the measures which are now before the British Parliament for the establishment of a similar aystem in England, he refera to the efforts made here for a/ Uk? object. He attributes the tallare of those efforts heretofore to the interested ad? vice and action of the telegrapn companies and managen. He feels confident that the telegraph, in connection with the postoffioe, and under the control of government, can be made much more serviceable and cheap to the ablio. Ha therefore -reoommenda the Baa pago of au aot by Congress incorporating a company which shall construct telegraph linos along all tho postal routes of the Uni? ted States, and which shall contract with the Postmastor-Oenoral to deliver messages at a low and fixed rato. The rato recommended at pi osent is to average about one cont a word for all distances not exceeding iivo"hundred miles, and five cents for every flvo words beyond that distance. These ratos are to bo determined in tho act of Congress, but the Postmaster-Gon eral is to have the power of reducing them whenever tho profits exceed ton per cont, of tho company's capital, which is to be limited to two hundred dollars a mile. This provision is intended to prevent an inflation of the capi? tal. Mr. nundull is sevore on the present man? agement of the telegraph, and calls it an inju? rious monopoly. Ho opposes the estabbshmont of any oxper imental lines by the government, and calls upon Congress to establish a general system at once. CHARLESTON. MONDAY MORNING. JANUARY ll, 1869. Tbe Savannah and Charleston Railroad. We publish this morning a memorial ad? dressed to the General Assembly by the tax-payers of Charleston, praying that euoh assistance may be given as will enable the Savannah and Charleston R:ilroad to com? plete their road throughout. We have already explained at length the position of the Company and its necessities, and what, in our opinion, is the proper course for the General Assembly to pursue; and if any proof were needed of the truth and correctness of the arguments which we have advanced, it would be found in the memorial of which we speak. It is signed by merchants, factors, brokera, bankers, real estate owners, machinists, shopkeepers, and every other class of tax-payera. ' It in? cludes every occupation,and represents every 'shade of political opinion-the name of the fiery Democrat standing by the side of that of the most resolute Republican. The me? morial, in a greater degree than any other of whioh we have knowledge, represents the tax-payera of Charleston, and, to our mind, ia the most influential document pre? sented of late y ear? by thia city to the Gen? eral Assembly of the State. With the expression of the views of the commercial capital of the State before them, .and with the knowledge that what we ask is for the common good, and that not one oent xs expected to be taken from the treas? ury, the Legislature cannot Well do other than consider and adopt at once such meas? ures aa may be necessary for obtaining the ends whioh their petitioners desire. The Political Marder Bill. We are surprised and sorry to see that a bill has been introducid into the lower house of the General Assembly "to provide "for tbe widow? and drnhane of <jnen,mur "dered for their political opinions/' by giv? ing them a pension of $200, to be collected by assessment upon the county where the murder was committed. We have always condemned violence and intemperance, and have denounced every act of violenoe, whatever its provocation. The feeling of the people is opposed to mob law upon any pretext, and as it is our doc? trine that every man has the right to his own opinion, we have steadily discounte? nanced persecution and proscription for politioal or party reasons. But it is use? less for the people in general to be peacea? ble and law abiding, if the whole of one coanty in the State is to he held responsi? ble for the lawless deeds of any one man in it. In every large body of people, there must be individual cases of disorder and wrong; but we say that it is shamefully unjust to impose a tax upon a whole c?m munity because some one mon in it is not gentle as a sucking dove. Of course, if the General Assembly of the State is nothing more than an organi? zation for the dissemination of Radical opinions, for the encouragement of party hate, and for rewarding party disciples, the bill will pass, whether we like it or not. But this we are loath to believe. We know that there are men in the Legislature who feel that it is to their interest to work for the good of the whole State, and that we can have neither prosperity nor peace while any question is deoided in the affirm? ative or negative, aooording to the manner in whioh it affects "the party." And we would ask these members whether they oan expeot to be thought of as representatives of the State, or of any part of it; whether they oan expeot to be treated as represen? tatives of the people at large, when they tax the State and the people to support the heirs of a man who has been killed, not for the State, not in the execution of the laws, not in the service of the Commonwealth, but, to use the words of the bill, "on ac "count of his politioal opinions." If any man be murdered, and should be deemed a martyr to the oause, his widow and children might properly be supported by the party to whioh he belonged. The Union League should take oare of his fam? ily, and if there is no money in the treas? ury of the League, it oan be contributed hy the surviving members of the party. On the floor of the General Assembly there should be ne manifestation of politi? oal hatred, and no raking of the smoulder? ing party fires. The Legislature is on trial, and we who must bear the brunt wait to learn whether it means war npon all that is not.Radical, or peaoe and good will to all leal and honest men. We desire to do nothing that shall oause anger or ill feel? ing. We desire that the General Assembly may have a fair and full opportunity of vin? dicating itself from aspersion, or of damn? ing itself in pnblio esteem; but we oannot be silent when it is proposed to make the Legislature a huge Radical caucus, a means of rewarding the fallen faithful, and of tax? ing the State beoause this man or that man has been wantonly and brutally killed. We speak somewhat warmly, beoause wo feel that this politioal martyrdom bill is a scandal and a shame. Even Congressional partisanship never went as far as this bill proposes to go, and we -'?ooroly hope that when tho bill comes np for action it will bi promptly and decisively rejected. The Hank or tho (State. The grounds on which the injunction against Governor Scott, to prevent hftn from issuing bonds to the billholders of the Bank of the State, is to be applied for, are as follows: 1. Because the provision contained in tko aot which authorizes the bonds, requiring the Governor to take possession of the assets of the bank, is a condition precedent to the issuing of thc bonds. 2. Because the act is unconstitutional, In? asmuch as it does not comply with the requirement of tho constitution prohibiting the Legislature from passing acts creating money obligations without, at the same time, laying a tax by which to provide for meeting the same. 3. Because the usual formalities of legis? lation were not oomplied with in the pas? sage of the aot. ^ 4. Because the aot is contrary to the ?di? rection of the late Constitutional Conven tion to the Legislature, to examine into the liabilities of the bank and make provision for the same.
