WOODEN BUILDINGS IN THE CITY
A LETTER FROM ME. CORBIN.
TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS.
SIR-I notice in your issue of to-day a letter
published from oue "J. SI. M.," in which ho
assails me as the enemy of tho working men of
Charleston. That I defeated a measure that
would "pour deo millions oj dollars into the
lap of a suffering community !"
Attached tc. this commun ?cation is a letter
from R. H. Cain, senator from Charleston, in
which he says: "Air. Corbin has manifested a
spirit of disregard for the poor man, and all
bis real interests, in such a m inner that I have
come to regard him as the enemy of thc poor
man, only BO far as be can make a good thing
out of them. It was at his instance that this
bill was laid on the table, and hence lost. So
the school bill is lost by his advice, and every
other good measure looking to the people's in?
terests."
Now. Hr. Editor, I do not know who this "J.
31. M.v is, neither do I care; but tho promi"
nonce given to his communication makes it
necessary I should notice him.
"Two millions ol' dollars into the lap of a
suffering community!" From whor.ee, pray ?
The bill referred to provided for the repeal of
that portion of tho Fire Loan act, o* D>33,
which prohibited the building within tbe City
of Charleston "any wooden or framed building,
or to cover any building with a roof of com?
bustible materials."
I opposed the bill, because I believed it con?
trary to the truo interests of tho City of
Charleston, and the sound policy adopted by
the city and State thirty years ago. It is the
policy of ill the large Atlantic cities. The fires
of 1838 and 1861 are sufficient to teach the peo?
ple of Charleston, if they can be tausht, not
to build up the city with wood. Being near
the sea, nearly level, is it wise to make it a
mere tinder box on a largo scale, so that if, a
spark of fire falls alt must burn.?
I opposed tbs passage of the bill for these
considerations, and without reference to the
present usurping Board of Aldermen, although,
God knows, I dislike them bad enough.
As to B. H. Cain and his slanders, I have
only to say, I know him and his practices as a
lecislator, and his advice to certain members
about receiving money, &c, and his violent
opposition to the passage of a bill to prevent
and punish bribery and corruption, and I deem
him t03 contemptible a character for my no?
tice.
As to defeating the Educational bili, I did all
in my power to pass one, and' lt did pass the <
t-enate. The House ot Representatives adopt- >
ed and sent to the Senate a substitute, which, j
since I left, a week since, the .Senate refused {
to concur in, and very properly, in my judg- t
ment.
Thus much for tho truth of this Reverend (
Democrat. Seldom prosont in the Sonato t
himself, ho personally knew or did scarcely !
anything on any subject of general interest to j
tho community, and ho now turns round to
slander and vilify those who have tried to do
their duty.
Give him rope enough and he will hang
himself. Very lejpectfully,
Ti T Co*mn.

TO THE EDITOR OF THE NEWS.
The recent editorials of THE NEWS in an?
swer to the ignorant, injurious and prejudiced
statement of the Westminster Review, are ad?
mirable and timely. New England prejudices
against the South, and South Carolina moro t
especially, have for long years been transplan- 1
ted in English soil, where they have flourished 1
without let or hindrance. The provoking ig- <
norance of the reviewer may, therefore, bc 1
easily accounted for, and may, in the judg?
ment of charity, be supposed to be not wilful, J
and, therefore, pardonable. Any information 1
derived from the "Hub" of the universe or its <
environs, ;a always, as a matter of course, ex- 1
cathedra. Charlee xn was the hub of the re- I
beldon and South Carolina the nest of slsveo
crats, who had tbe hardihood to contend that ]
constitutions were made to protect minorities. .
and that the doctrine of the "higher law"
which was promulgated by the party of pro- '
greas-the transcendental, latter-dty saints- j
was perfidious aud wioked. According to these ,
worthies, the wish may be father to the thought
that these sinks of iniquity should he annihil?
ated as a righteous retribution for their deeds 1
and doctrines. It will require a long process ]
of reconstruction to wi po out this reproach,
which this generation will rardly witness.
Civilly, socially, politically, religiously, com- i
mercully, we mutst bo manipulated and put i
through the mill, before we can stand ou tho ,
Bame platform with the wiseacres who are. in
their own estimation, fully up with this fast i '
ago ot progress b ick'oards. But I inteuded i
to say that l HE NEWS luLht have gone still j
further in its ocumeralioo ot the sources of
recuperan m and wealth embraced wituin tko
limits ot South Carolina. For instance, she is !
ono of the bust wa ercd States in tbe nanon, j

THE CONGRESSIONAL ELECTION.
The Hon. J. P. Recd, Democrat, who was
elected to Congress from the Tbird District, in
November last, and whose seat is contested In?
justice Hogo.ha? boen taking sworn testimony
in Edgefield, with regard to the circumstances
wbic'i prevented tho holding of an election in
that district. Every witness testified that
there were no throats of violence, that there
would have boen a fair election and that the
Democratic candidate would undoubtedly have
been elected. The following sworn statement,
made by gentlemen whose words even Gover?
nor Scott will find it difficult to doubt, is suffi?
cient to disprove every charge brougbt by the
Radicals against Edgefield District:
That they are ^cbidents of Edgefield Village,
and resided here at and before the late Con?
gressional election foi tho Third District; that
there was no "combination, conspiracy or
agreement" by or between any persons what?
ever, as far as their information and belief ex?
tends, for the purpose of preventing an elec?
tion on said 3d day of November, 1863, and that
there was a general leeliug ot' anxiety among
the citizens to have a fair election, and with
that view, the said R. G. M. Dunovanl and the
said M. C. Butler state that a proposition was
made to the repr?sentatives ol'the Republican
party, to arrange so that ono party migbt vote
the first six hours of the day and the other the
latter six hours.
These deponents fur;her state, under oath,
that a Bbort time previous to tbe said election,
tbo freedmen held a largo meeting in tho in?
terest of the Republicau party, iu the public
square at Edgefied Courthouse, and were ad?
dressed for boars by their speakers without
molestation or hindrance ; that upon ti e same
occasion there was a meeting of Central Execu?
tive Democratic Clnb, attended by quite a
number of Democratic citizens fronfthe coun
tryvthat they heard of several other meetings
of tbe freedmen in different parts ot tue
county, with which ibere was not tbe slightest
interference. These deponents further state
that the Democracy of the county did allin
their power to procure an election, and the
said M. C. Butler states that, as president of |
the Central Executive Democratic Club, bo was
ina situation to know the sentiments of the
people ; and that they were anxitua to have
Bverv pos8iblo precinct opeu ou the day of j
election.
And these deponents further state it as their
belief that if flier ?bad been an election, tbe
Hon. J. P. Reed, the Democratic candidate,
?vould have received a majonty of the votes of
tho county ; that tbe Commissioners ol Elec?
tions were, as these deponents were informed
md believed, Republicans in principio, and
tbat tboir refusal to act was one of tb? causes
why an election was not held; that some weeks
prior to the said 3d day of November petitions
ivere sent by citizens in some parts ct the
:ounty to Governor Scott, requesting him to
recommend to tho Legislature tho opening of
ill tho voting precincts lor tho couvenience of
the people, aud ii any action was over taken
)n said petitions these deponents have had no
ootico of it.
These deponents further say that thov have
leard the testimony of Goueral M. W. Gary
ind W. F. Durisoe, Sr., Esq., and corroborate
,?e same as substantially true.
And those deponents further state that tho
Son. J. P. Reed was invited by tho Dem?
ocratic Club of Edgefield Courthouse to visit
;he county, and canvass for tbe election,
hereby evincing tboir intention to go lairly
nto tho election. ; that tho Hon. J. P. Heed
lid canvass the county prior to tue okctiou.

Tho able London correspondent of tho New

Mr. Gladstone has gained an immense ad?
vantage by the masterly manner in which he
has grappled willi tho task ot abolishing the
tho Lian Church as a Stato institution, and
everybody feels that bia plan is f illy equal to tho
difficulties "it is mtended to meet, lu offering
it a formal opposition Mr. Disraeli morely con?
sents to become tho loader of a forlorn hope.
It is pail of tho auit and service he ia
obliged to render au unthaukfiu party.
When Mr. Gladstone's scheme was fully
explained to the public all intelligent
mon must hive felt that it was des?
tined tu carry the day. Depend upon it Air.
Disraeli ia not more foolish than the majority
ir nankiud. Ho listened to Ur. Gladstone's
statement, and ho must have felt that hts last
hopo of building a strong opposition on the
dimensions ot bia antagonist's was gone. But
a meeting ot Conservatives was hold a few
days ago at Lord Dorbj's house to consider
what had boat be done. Ur. Disraeli, I have
been told, would cive no advice whatev r. Ho
let tho meeting understand that they bad as?
sembled to express their own opiuion a, nut to

vised a resolute stand against the immaterial
policy, and thia proposition #JB carried bv ac?
clamation. Mr. Disraeli thoo undertook to lead
bis followers to deleat, and BO thc meeting
broke up.

;m>i ev.d nt.y much thu juutor ot li t ool
lo .giles. This is Air. Cuiidcis, F.rsi Lord JI
the Admiralty, who hay had tho luck tu become
Cabinet Minister at the age of forty-one. The
red faco and perfectly white eyebrows and hair
of Mr. Lowe mark him out from all bis col?
leagues. He ordinarily sits next to Mr. Glad?
stone, who frequently turns to consult him.
Mr. Lowe has made Mr. Gladstone smart be?
fore now-henoe, perhaps, the Premier's re?
spect for his opinions. A plain looking conn
try gentleman is Mr.. Bruce, tbe Home
Secretary; and his companion, with a Jewish
cast of face, is Mr. Goschen, President of the
Poor Law Board. Almost all of these Ministers
are good speakers, except Mr. Gos 'hen, who is
heavy and dull, and Mr. Cardwell, who is drawl?
ing and affected. Some of the Under?
secretaries are able men, but their Parliament?
ary manner would never load a stranger to
think them so. Thus Mr. Grant Duff, whose
annual reviews of foreign affairs hive made him
a "man of mark," addresses the House in a
high, shrill tone, with tho true cockney drawl
and general abolition of "r's." Year ho calls
"yeaw,"and rule becomes "wulo." But of all
the awe-inspiring displays yet heard in the
present House the maiden-speech of Mr. Ver?
non Harcourt ("Historiens") waB tho most
memorable. Mr. Harcourt is well known in
town by a name which cannot be used with?
out blasphemy, but which is considered
to describe inadequately tho ineffable su?
periority of his mien and conversation.
Mr. Harcourt waB not troubled with ner?
vousness on rising to address the House of ]
Commons for the first time. I heard his
speech, and it souuded as if great Jove him?
self had condescendod to come down io en?
lighten foolish men with hie wisdom. The
House listened, bm a few moro speeches in
that manner would be fatal to any beginner in
political life. Th ero is one thing the House of |
Commons will never stand, and tbat is arro?
gance. Any man who presumes to lecture it,
or pnt on grund airs, soon finds out that he
has made an irretrievable mistake. Mr. Vor
non Harcourt is understood to have devoted
himself specially to thc annihilation of Mr.
Disraeli. Perhaps one of these days Mr. Dis?
raeli will have a few remarks to make on
"Historicu8," and then there will bo another
nickname stamped inefftceably upon people's
minde.

SS- THE TRYING SEASON-THE
searching winde, the cold, drizzling rains, the heavy
fogs, and occasional warm and moist days of il areli,
render it, upon the whole, the most unhealthy month
of the year. Ita depressing influences arc especially
unfavorable to invalido, and thousands of persons
with feeble constitutions, who have borne the win?
ter bravely, break down in the first month of spring.
The variations of temperature aud cold east winds
are a serious trial to tho dyspeptic and bilious,
whose symptoms they invariably aggravate. Inter?
mittent fever is also rife wherover there is evol vable
poison in the water or tho soil. To enable tho sys?
tem to combat tbe?e evils, Uiere is nothing like a
good vegetable tonic, and among this class of medi?
cines HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS stand
supreme. Medical men prescribe it in preference to
any of tho tonic preparation? of the pb arm ac op oe ia.
They are aware that the ordinary tinctures and ex?
tracts are all b ised upon cheap alcohol, which is sur?
charged with an acrid essential oil, and absolutely
poisonous. J hey know, on the other band, that the
rectified essence of the finest rye grown in t^'?
country is tho solo spirituous ingredient of HOS
TETTER'S BITTERS, and that the vegetable me?
dicinal elements of which it is composed are of rare
efficacy. Hence, lt has the confidence ol physicians,
?i'd finds its way into hospitals where no other pro?
prietary medicine is sanctioned.
A course of tho BITTERS is especially recom?
mended to persons ol delicate habits, of both sexes,
at this season. In the fever and ague districts of the
West and South, quinine bis been almost univer?
sal iy discarded as a chologoguc, and thin invaluable
antidote to malarious disorders od >pte J in its stead.
A double gain hi realized by the change, for the
Bittere, unlike that dangerous alkaloid, are agreeable
to the palate, and their curative effect is much more
permanent. nae C March 27
