The police are engaged in dis? tributing bread from boats, which are paddled -through tho Btroets covered by water, to the depth of two, four, and in some planes, six feet. As the relief parties., passed along the streets, the windows of. the housea were filled with women and children, clamorous for bread. The most destitute lived in the lanes and back yards. Families were found lying together on the floor, covered with bed-clothes, and thus, by the additional warmth, endeavoring fco resist the pangs of hunger. -Defeated candidates ?br Congress have, it is stated, of late years been in the habit of contesting the seats of their snocossful com? petitors in order to secure the amount usually voted to pay their expenses. During the last twelve years the payments have amounted to 1108,748 to unsuccessful contestan te.and $00,653 to candidates who were unseated, making a . total of 8178,896. In order to prevent this ex? travagant expenditure, a bill has been intro? duced into Congress providing that in cases of contested seato no money shall he paid to either candidate until a, <v?r>i?ioo is reached by the House, when the salary shall be given to ?be member legally elected. No greater sum of money is to be paid to the person declared .?ot to be entitled than bas actually been ex? pended by him. The Committee en Elections of the House, it is stated, hare agreed to re? port this bill, and an effort will be mads for its passage soon after the meeting of Con? gress. -The New York Sun of Tuesday prints over iour columns of evidence to sustain some seri . oas chargea against the managing ed itor of one of the New York morning dailies. They allege that said editor has been guilty of furnishing to a Philadelphia newspapor, which does not boloug to the Associated Press, the cable news belonging exclusively to tho association. This is a violation of the rules of the press of the whole country. It ia further charged that Simon Cameron was led to pay the editor $12,500 to socuro tho good influence of this editor and tho paper to whioh he is attached; also, that Oalusha A. Grow paid him 16000 for the same purpose ; also, that the at?tc Attorney-General, Brewster, of Pennsylva? nia, paid, him (1000 for his influence; also, that this editor attempted to obtain five thousand dollars from Governor Curtin, in order to separe the good will or his paper to aid bim (Curtin) in getting a foroign mission. It is also stated that documents will be pro? duced showing that some twenty-five thousand dollars have been divided between this editor and a loading Albany lobbyist, in consideration of the editor avoiding any editorial allusions to certain Jobs whioh have from time to time been put through the State Legislature. These allegations are made against Mr. John B. Young, of the Tribune, who declares that they are the result of a conspiracy formed by two employees discharged from the Tribune, acting with his personal enemy, Mr. Simonton, of tbe New York Associated Press. He proposes to j show that they are utterly false. I CHARLESTON. FBIDAY MORNING, APRIL 80, 1869. HeactiOn. The huge and incongruous political or? ganization whioh oalls itself the Republican party of the United States, has at last, after ?decade of continuous effort, made itself master of every department of the National Government, besides controlling, as well, the subordinate governments of a large ma? jority of what were once the sovereign States. With the consummation of its tri? umph, the oohesive force whioh has thus far bound together the discordant elements.| of the party, has suddenly become a centri? fugal pressure, and the signs that forebode the coming of a great political break up are of a character hardly to be mistaken. The hosts of those who have been dis ap - pointed' in the division of the' spoils, and who are always the earliest and bitterest foes of an administration, were never so numerous and so vengeful as now. These alone Would constitute a formidable party of opposition. But apart from th?se, there Are in every Northern State thousands of honest men who have hitherto ranged them? selves under the Republican banner, but who are at last heattily disgusted with the excesses of their party, and who are band? ing together resolutely for reform. The rallying cry under whioh this movement seems chiefly to be taking shape and gath? ering strength is the just and popular doc? trine of Free Trade. A powerful League has just been organized at Boston, whioh numbers amongst its members some of the most influential men in New England. It opposes speoial legislation of every kind. It announces its belief in the propositions that every man la entitled to the results of his own labor, to seU at will in the nearest market and buy in the cheapest ; that gov? ernment interference with the industrial efforts of the citizen is an infringement of .j bis natural rights ; the reciprocity of trade gives to eaoh nation, under a system of mutual exohange, the greatest results from the least expenditure of toil ; that all raw materials, machinery, fuel and lumber should be admitted duty free ; that such customs duties as it may be necessary to impose should be levied for revenue exclu? sively, and not for protection ; that a cur? rency of real Yalu? should take the place 'of j depreciated paper; and finally, that govern? ment appointments should be made on the sol? ground of fitness, and not aa the reward of party services. In New York, tho Free Trade League baa also set vigorously to work in vindication of these doctrines, and at the West and . Northwest they, are already aooepted with ardor by the Chicago Tribune, the Cincinnati Commercial and a host of minor journals! ' At Brooklyn, Henry Ward Beecher has openly repudia? ted, at a Free Trade meeting, the heresy of | a high protective tariff which he has held and maintained eo long. The New* York Tribune snaps and snarls At the hew move? ment, sedulously avoids the publication of j ehe speeches made, and of the resolutions adopted, but no longer-charges that the League ls instigated by British gold. AU these things point to a change in pub? lic sentiment. A happy add healthy change Indeed would it be if it should sweep away the corruption whioh baa fastened itself upon every department of the government, together with that system of legalized rob? bery, miaoalled protection. -f s H a?pa 'f .*.. When Rog we* Fsvll Oat, &e. Th? ill-oonoealod dissatisfaction with whioh the leading Radical presses have been watching the coom of President Grant, has atlast broken out in open and bitter invectivo. Dana, in Saturday's issue of bis sprightly paper, the New York Sun, opens a terrible editorial broadside upon the boro of the Appomattox apple-tree. After drawing a damaging contrast between the. present administration and those of Jefferson, Jackson and John Quincy Adams, he goes on to say : "General Grant spent nearly the entire first "week of his term in trying to evade the plain "provisions of salutary statutes, because they "blocked the way for the admission to the most "important seat in his Cabin ot of an almoner "who had bestowed a dazzling present. Baf "fled in this by the firmness of the Senate and "the frowns of the public, he nevertheless in? stalled among his constitutional advisers "other individuals who, though not obnoxious "to thia particular objection, were chiefly dis i "tinguiihed for having conferred upon bim "costly and valuable benefactions. The natu "ralreanU of al! this asst inevitably be, that "oorruption asm venality wfU walk unabashed "and almost unrebukod through ?very d?part? ement of the government. Bush etil ?xsm "ptes tend to make lucre the badge of hohjr "able distinction, and the possession of riches "the cole passport to power, eminence, or even "re.pt?tab^ity.,' ' Dana concludes by tbs pertinent inquiry, whether lt is not high time that the masses of tbs people, who neither bask' nar bold offist, should labor for ?bt rotara of tbs good old times of republican simplicity, *wb?a statesmen lott a stain as tv wound; when the dispenser of patronage would scorn to feed his poor relations from the public crib; and when the Prosident would cut off his right hand ere it should sign the commission of a man who had bestowed* | upon him a gift ? Kew York and New Urleane. One of the most notable of the reoent developments of the system of "through" travel, is the completion of the arrange- ! ment by which a passenger is carried by rail all the way from New York to the Cres? cent City, with but a single change of oafs. "On last Thursday -night," we are told, ?a "through palace oar left New York for Lou? isville direot, for the first time in the his "tory of American railroad operations." The trip of this oar inaugurated the run? ning of a new line that will shorten the time between New York and New Orleans from 81 tc 75 hours, and give through trav? ellers the advantage of only one change of oars between the great marts of the North and the Southwest. The shortest available distance between New York and Louisville is 894 miles, and the new line traverses it by way of Philadelphia and Pittsburg to Columbus via the Pan Handle route, and thence by the "Cambridge out-off " (near the Ohio and Indiana State line) to Jeffer? son ville, and thenoe aoross 'the river into Louisville, where passengers are transferred to another palace oar through without change to New Orleans. The time over the Pan Handle route between New York and Louisville is 37 hours, or 24 1 6 miles per hour, including stoppages. The seaboard route will have to spur up its iron horses to compete with this time. _Wanto. _ SKU. VANTS WA NT BD-A MAN TO wait tn the house and a WOMAN to mind a child.
