Use moot disaetrous steamboat conflagrations
that ever occurred on the Ohio. The fire de?

flames bad fairly seized upon the fated boats
ao rapid was the advance of tbe conflagration.
Ah shat tuno tba body of flame waa. fully 500
fecf long by 100 wide, and shot rar into the air,,
illuminating the whole city. The firemen
conid do nothing but prevent tho extension of
the fire to other boats, so fierce was the- heat.
The symmetrical outlines of the boat? wore
lost sight of in the shoes of flame and the
danae volumes of smoke that enveloped them.
She white spart and the delicate tr a cory of the
cabins were one moment resplendent-the next
they wera gone. Deprived of support, the
decks quivered and crashed down to the hulk;
the tall chimneys in a second toppled over and
fell, some upon the wharf, some into the water.
Oil burst from confinement, and flowed in
broad streams far down upou the surface of
the river, resembling, when viewed from the
Suspension bridge, a separate rivulet of molten
gold. Although the fire took place after two
o'clock in the morning, the lower part of the
city was crowded with thousands of people
aroused from their beds.
-The New York Sun announces the depar?
ture of three more expeditious for Cuba. The
-schooner General Putnam had a full cargo of
arms and ammunition and a number of recraiw
CA hoard, and abe sailed for Inangna, ona of
the Bahama Islands, and thence, a distance of
one hundred and eighty miles, the cargo and
naen were sent across to Cuba. On th 3 4th and
5th two steamers were secured by the agents
of the Junta, at a cost of 180,000 each, and each
sailed fdr a port in the West Indies. These
vessels took out over five hundred veterans of
the late war, who had enlisted to serve under
C?spedes. They were under the command of
a Cuban general who had selected a full staff of
American officers. Among the war materials
which constituted the cargo were the follow
lu?: One battery, iu?y iquipped; one thous?
and stand or aims, tour thousand barrels of
gunpowder, four hundred halos of gunny cloth
tor bastions. Bomo of these military stores
aro said to hare been purchased on Governor's
Island. One of the steamers ia supposed to
bave reached its destination, and the other has
been spoken off the coast of Florida. The
agents of the Junta have chartered other
steamers to make voyages to the Bahama Inl?
ands, and tie volunteers and munitions of war
are to be taken thence to C?spedes without in?
volving such vessels as may be chartersd in a
breach of the neutrality laws. . .
-We are at last to have a Martin vs. Mack
onoobie case in this country. Bishop McTl
vaine, of Ohio, and one of hiB '.retakotory''
presbyters, Rev. Mr: Tate, have bared their
unbuttoned foils lor a real ritualistic fight.
The bishop has no love for sc uhetic rehg'on;
Er. Tate's ritualistic excesses, as they eoetn to
Dr. Mell vaine, are very slight, indeed, when
measured by tho New York standard. At the
request of his congregation, be introduced a
?surpliccd choir, and " authorized processional
singing of psalms and hymns by a procession
of choristers entering the church door." At
tho request of his bishop to discontinue the
practice he refused, thinking that it was a
matter for the vestry and not the bishop to de?
cide.' Whereupon the bishop s nm mona him
before an ecclesiastical tribunal, charged with
violating bis promise to, " conform to the wor?
ship and doctrines of the. Protestant Episcopal
Church of Americ:," and furthermore with
?violating bis "ordination vow to follow the
godly admonition of his bishop." The matter
came np recently before the American Church
Union, in New Tork, and a series of resolutions
?ere passed indorsing the action of Ber. Colin
Tate, ard promising bira legal and pecuniary
support. Several prominent ritualistic clergy?
men spoke strongly in his favor, and rejoiced
that an opportunity of testing the ritual ques?
tion in an American ecclesiastical court had at
.last been found. Mow that the foils have been
crossed, we will wait the next pass. ' *

TUESDAY MORNING, MAY 18, 1869.
An Important Work.
The experience bf the last few years has
demonstrated the fact that in , order to ob?
tain railroads which will be of real benefit
to the State, we must spend our money at
korney and, as th er e ie no real antagonism o f
interest and, we trust, no 'antagonism of feel?
ing bet ween the up-country and the lower
counties, it should be, lo the -general avan?
tage so to arrange new lines that they will
Borve as feeders to Charleston, as the re
Oeiving, shipping and distributing point for
all bouth Carolina. This etty, at all events,
should be alive' to the importarfoe of widen?
ing her channels of communication and im?
proving hersjptmnectioa with the interior;
and while they will be anxious to further the
construction of any railroad which will de
velo'pe the section through whioh it passes
and increase the prosperity of the publio,
Charlestoaiaas will.naturally attach a spe?
cial value to linee whioh, although laid for
locaT*purposes, have as an avowed objeet
the bringing of trade to their oity. In this
connection, the South Carolina Central Rail?
road, should reoeive the early and favorable
consideration of ?ur merchants and busi?
ness mea.
This road, whioh is to run from Sumter
to Gourdin'sr where it will connect with the
Northeastern Railroad, will undoubtedly
make valuable tens of thousands of acres
which now cannot find a purchaser. The
market price pf the cleared and timber
land will be trebled and quadrupled as soon
at the road is open. It is no t str an ge, t h en "
that Sumter and Clarendon are disposed to
work vigorously to make successful an en?
terprise which will enhance the Taine of all
that they possess, and give them the rail?
road facilities and the connection with a
good market, without which fertile acree
are of little avail and every growing crop
is reduced in market prioe.
'But the Charleston merchant will-find
the chief attraction of the South Carolina
Central Railroad in the circumfitance that
ii will give this city the business of two im?
portant counties of the State. In I860,
Sumter and Clarendon produced 23,000
balee of cotton, 1,000,000 pounds of rice,
and 1,000.000 bushels of corn. This shows
?L l r...?.'.?vr .1. . 1 ??'- >
what was the productive power.of the aee
tion with, whioh Charleston is to be given a
qnick and cheap connection. There were
In the two counties in 1860, 219,505 acres
of improved land, and 595,540 aores of unim?
proved land whioh will be thrown open to
the immigrant and the capitalist. And it
needs no arithmetic to demonstrate what
will be the effect of the new railroad trav?
ersing this broad domain, in, stimulating
the production of cotton, rice, eora, naval
stores, vegetables and fruits. Here our
advantage would begin; for this city would
undoubtedly receive a shale of every addi?
tional dollar whioh Sumter and Clarendon
might make,
And since the dose of the war, as is well
known, the trade of a large part of the
middle country has been diverted from
Charleston by competing lines. The pur?
chasers Of merchandise of different kinds
have followed the produce of the soil, eo
that'Baltimore and New York have enjoyed
the benefit of the very business whioh nat?
urally belongs to ourselves. Already the
Baltimore railroad men, with Ur. Garrett
of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad at their
head, are making arrangements to drain
the whole interior of this State of its cot?
ton ia the interest of Marylaad, aad how?
ever small our means may be, it would be
unwise ia the extreme to neglect the oppor?
tunity which now presents itself of recov?
ering a trade whioh has been lost, of check?
ing the grasping poliey of our richer neigh?
bors, aad of developing aa important section
of country ia such a manner that its trade
will flow to Charlestoa as the rivers flow to
the sea.
It seems to us, therefore, that the railroad
to Gourdin's is an undertaking of great
moment. The people along the line will
do all that ia them lies. The Northeastcra
Railroad will assist them as far as it caa.
More thaa this, however, is necessary, aad
we trust that our merchants and business
men generally will subscribe to the stock
of the road, not as a matter of unselfish
generosity, but as a sure way of bringing
here a current of trade and general busi?
ness, a stream of buyers and sellers, which
will be a source of profit to every man who
is doing business ia Charlestoa.
Ex-Aide rm an Barrow.
We believe that Mr. David Barrow, who
takee his seat as an Alderman from Ward
3 at each meeting of the City Council, and
probably proposes to do so at the meeting^
of Council to be held to night, is not an
Alderman, and has no right whatever lo
aol in that capacity.
Mr. Barrow was elected Alderman from
Ward 3, on the Pillsbury ticket; on Novem?
ber 10, 1868, at which time he resided in
Anson-street, in the ward which he was
elected to represent. His house in Anson
street, however, was subsequently sold, he
moved out of Ward 3, and now lives in
Beestree?, in Ward 6. By removing from
Ward 3, Mr. Barrow vacated the office of
Alderman, and nothing short of a popular
election can give him the right to a seat in
Council.
The law on the subject is found in ?An
'.act to alter and amend- so muon cf the
"second clause of the charter incorporating
"the City of Charleston as relates to the
?qualification of voters for Intendant and
"Wardens, and for other purposes therein
"mentioned," passed December 18, 1817,
and is in these words :
"Provided, That the persona so tobe
"elected for each ward Bhall, at the time
"of eleotion, in addition to the other qual?
ifications prescribed by law, be resi?
dents of the ward for which they are
"elected, and that tn removal from the same,
"hit or their office* BHAXL BECOME VACANT,
"and a new election be ordered by the City
??Council of Charleston."
This is perfectly clear, and in at least two
instances of late years an eleotion has
boen held to filia vacancy caused by the
removal of an Alderman from the ward
from which he waa elected. Mr. Barrow
removed from Ward 3 and now lives in
Ward 6, and if these facts are correctly
stated, has no more right to sit ia Council
-as Alderman from Ward 3 than is pos?
sessed by any of the many loafers who may
be found in the streets of Charleston.
TEE MORMONS, in spite of their "peculiar
institution," have shown to the world in a
striking manner what can be done by colonies
going even to a wilderness, with energy, en?
terprise, industry and the spirit of co-opera?
tion to help them. Once a mere handful of
adventurers, within a score of years they have
grown to he a people more than 100,000 strong,
living in more than 100 beautiful towns and
vii ta cos, and possessing all the appliances and
oom forts of complete civilizition. They have
ail sorts of mi Ila, factories, foundries and
workshops; all trades flourish with them; they
have fine <tnd productive agriculture, and raise
cal tie that are famous. They have long fed
mining populations around thom with the
produits of their farms, and have fashioned
out of their mountain home the "garden of
tho West." The regions of the South to
which the immigrant is invited, while posses?
sing all the advantages to which au established
civilization and flivil organization can confer,
are blessed by nature with a Boil, with a cli?
mate and with resouroes of every kind with
which those of tho wilds of Utah bear no com?
parison.
THE New York Evening Post gives the re?
sults of an informal and unsolicited conversa?
tion with the President, in the coursa of which
he evinced n 3 little displeasure at the manner in
which he had been imposed noon by men who
he had thought could be trusted, by whom he
was induced int > making appointments which
bad 8mee proved to be improper. The remedy,
however, was in bis own hands, and be would
not hesitate to use it to purify the service from
incompetent or dishonest men. In the future,
be continued, no one would know whether be
was to be appointed until his commission was
signed, unless he was personally known to the
President; Whether his administration was suc?
cessful would depend much upon whether the
revenue was properly collected, whiou under
the m?nagement pf Secretary Bout well he felt
assured would, if possible, be done.
THE Albion, the Ecglish organ in Ne.w
York, .states that so far as England is con?
cerned there is not a word of truth in the ru?
mored Triple Alliance. Per contra, the Cour?
rier des Etats Unis, the mouthpiece of French
officials in this country, intimates that an un?
derstanding in regard tb a policy to be pur?
sued towards tho United States has, no doubt,
been arrived at by England, France and Spain,
but doubts the conclusion of any treaty.
