THE RADICAL BIRO AND THE CITY OFFICES.
The publication in ?HE News, yesterday, of
the Loyal League slaio for city offices, created
a prodigious, stir anjjong the faithful of that
organiza tina, and a ht tie consternation among
some of the would- be candidates. Several new
aspirants for official honors rose to the aurface
yesterday, prommmt among whom waa the re
normed Sam Dickerson (colored,) who Intimat?
ed that he would have no objection to being
derk of the Board ot Fixenusters. Captain
George Little, however, is the f i vorite for that
berth, and Sam having received the unmistak?
ably cold shoulder, considers himself aa one
more walking monument to the proverbial in- J
gi a tit ade A>t republics. L? I. Woolf, is in tho
ring for chief,' and J. M. Viney (colored,) an
ex- orderly sergeant of colored troops, for lieu?
tenant of police. Private Holloway (colored,)
of the police force, is talked of for orderly ser?
geant. Dr. T. E. Hertz is among those men?
tioned for city registrar.
There seems, after all, to be a degree of
method in the madness of the Radical ring, for
we bear no serious talk of pla cica; kn proper
man W the head of orr admirable Aro depart?
ment; "end though Chief Nathan is not vie wed
with favor, the only names so far mentioned
in connection with bis .position are those of |
Assistant Chief R. M. Alexander and B. M.
Strobe1, Esq. The latter gentleman is said to
be a favorite among the colored element.
THE STATE ASSESSMENT.
We learn through official sources that ac?
cording to tho retains already tn from twenty,
nine counties, with two more to lear from
(Richland and Charleston.) tho indications ate
that the amount assessed as the Taine of teal
and personal property in the State will not
ceed one hundred and thirty millions of dollar.
The probabilities are that the State Board
Equalization will raise the assessment of pro
porty to about two honored millions in orde
that the per centum of taxation shall not
coed one-half of one per centum, or fifty cen ti
on one hundred douars. To fix the rate
taxation with an assessment of one hundred
and thirty millions would be very nearly
dollar on the hundred.
The returns of personal property are uni vcr
sa'ly very much below what was expected. Foi
instance, the whole number of horses return
ed ia forty-two thousand, and the highest aver
age value eevontv-f]ve dollars. The retaras
merchants 'stocks are also tar below expect a
tiona.
In the matter of real property there is ven
little difference iu the present valuation ovei
that of 1867.
As an example of the way in which property
has been assessed, the average value of arable
lands in Orangeburg is $1 75 per acre, while
the highest average of the beet lands will
found ia Georgetown County at $18 per acre
The county which returned the highest gener?
al average of land t h roux hou t is Darlington
which is about $5 per acre.
We learn that the State Auditor, Mr. Tom
linaon, as soon as the per centum of taxation
is fixed, will make a full statement of the
turna for publication. One-fourth pf the reve?
nue to be raised will go to pay $250,000 past
doa interest oa thc Statehouse debL To pay
the running expenses of the State Government
won ld not require more than one-quarter per
oent. taxation. Over $900,000 past doe inter
eat, ie to bo paid ont of -tho taxation for the
current year.:
Comparing the valuation of 1867 and that
the present year, we find that the average
value of real property, in Abbeville County, for
1867, was $3 per acre ; the average value of the
same property this year is $3 per acre.
1867, Abbeville returned 593,590 acres ; in 1868
the returns are 620.213 ; Barnwell County re?
turned in 1867, 991,355 aerea, at a valuation
12,542,050 ; in 1568, the returns are 920,238
acres', at a valuation of $2,974.985. Darlington
County, ia 1867, returned 405,483 acres, at
valuation of $931,170; in 1868, the returns show
157.067 aeres, at a valuation of $2,280.6791 Dar?
lington is the only county in which there has
been any considerable increase over the. valua?
tion of 1867.
TBB STEAMS a? MANHATTAN.-It affords us
satisfaction to notice the regularity and dis
patch which nuuk the movements of the supe
rior steamships now employed from this port
Lo New York. Their speed, accommodations
and the security and reliable character of the
vessels, both as passen ger and freight carriers,
are all that the public can desire. Among
these 'steamers, the Manhattan, of the "Adger
line," ha s been particularly successful, and we
are pleased to learn that this fine ship, which
lift hate on Saturday last, reached New York
in the quick time of fifty-two hours, arriving
at that city yesterday..
RFPOBIEES' CBUKBS.- The doll Virginia Lee
raffled the second time, at the Widows' Home

Professor Pike, colored, of the Baker Theo?

There is a decided disposition among the
substantial colored element to strengthen
Mayor Pillsbury's Luide.
There i8 great feeling in the Republican
ranks because Mayor Pillsbury has not ap?
pointed men of their party as delegates to the
Memphis Convention. It is said that those
whom he would have appointe! couldn't raise
the necessary "spondulicks."
THX UNITED STATIS CO ?BT, MAY 17-JUDO K
BBXAX PBBSIDIKQ.-The grand jury returned
into court with the following finding : Emanuel
Parker, violation of internal revenue laws-no
bill. .The petitions of John T. McGowan and
E. W. Charles, Jr., for final discharge, ware
ralerred.to the registrar. It was ordered that
Luke Smith, of York, show oause on the 25th
Instant why he should not be declared a bank?
rupt. The jadge rendered tus decree in the
case of the owners and crew of the steamship
Oriental against the brigantine J. L.. Pye. He
decreed salvage to the amount of $4700 ia favor
Of the libellant.
The grand jury made the following present?
ment:
2b the Hon. George S. Bryan, Judge United
States District Oourt:
The grand jory beg leave to report that
they have visited the Charleston jail for the
purpose of examining the condition of the
Quited States prisoners therein confined, and
b?g to .-make tee folio .ing-preseateent :
??That thc apartment in Which~thBy Were con?
fined were in a state of cleanliness, and the
prisoners had only the complaint for the want
sufficient rations, wu ch they represented to
be-either - a-pan -cf mush without salt, and a
small pieop of beef or bacon per day, which
they stated was- the 'dairy rations of come.
Others represented that they r?ceived two
loaves of bread and a similar quantity of meat
as above. We took occasion to test this state?
ment by examining other prisoners, and have
brought with us a small pcrtion of a ration of
mash, and also a piece of bacon, which is tbe
amount of the daily ration. The bread distri?
buted to some of tue prisoners in lieu of muBb
was of a good quality.
One ot the pns mers, Isaac C. Williams,
complains that at the time of his com-nitment
instruction was given to the jailor by a detec?
tive officer, by the name of Neal, not to allow
him to bold any communication with any of
his friends, and that he was brought to trial
without hayingbad any opportunity to obtain
counsel for his defence. "Wehave no means of
ascertaining if this statement is true, bat we
deem it proper to present this subject to your
noticA. i., i
In the coarse of our examination, a prisoner
by the name of William C. Davis claimed our
attention. He represents himself as a seaman,
who arrived in Charleston on-fte brig Eva M.
John son; that be had been discharged and
sent to hospital, and that '.forwards he
had taken lodgings with one Henry May. in
Qaeen-etreet. and while being an inmate had
been arrested and taken from his bed by a
State constable, and lodged in jail without his
[knowing whit offence was chargea, or without
being brought before a magistate.
We would also present, aa a case of hard?
ship, the cases of Ben Johnson and William
Taylor, the former Bick and in hospital, and
the latter confined in a cell in the tower, which
was in a filthy condition. They were arrested
on a oharge for burglary, and lodged in jail on
the 8th of May, 1868, and have not yet been
brought to trial. These two last prisoners are
State prisoners, bat we still bee leave to pre?
sent them to your notice. The prisoner Wil?
liam Taylor claims to be a British subject.
Very respectfully,
FBANOTS G. CAST, Foreman.
HOSIE-HADE SUOAB FROM So BO amt.-There
may be seen in TEE NEWS offioo a sample of
aturar made from the sorghum cane by Dr. W.
P. Passmore, of Greenville. Some of this
sugar was exhibited at tho Agricultural Con?
vention, where it attracted general attention.
WETTISO THE PRIZE BOWL.-Ehe regular
morthiv meeting of the Palmetto Steam Fire
Engine Company was held at the hal] last
evening. After the business of the evening
bad been dispatched, tho magnificent Atlanta
prize bowl was placed on a centre tab'e and
the members and some invited guests present
partook of frequent libations of delicious
punch. Major Buist, of the Stonewalls,
entertained the company with a speech that
made the banner-decked and flower-crowned
hall ring with applause. Speeches were also
made by various members of the Palmetto and
the Stonewall, and sentiment succeeded senti?
ment, until the elegant emblem ot Georgia
liberality and Charleston pluck was drained of |
its refreshing contenta.
