Lady Byron has condemned herself by the

Kinostbee, Tuesday, September 14.?Court
was in session here during the pa it week, and
was occupied until Friday afternoon with
{Criminal business. Tbe sessions docket was
crowded with a large number of potty cases,
suoh ns larceny, assault and battery, &o? con
suming tbo time of the courtaud adding great
ly to tho expenses of tho county, partiee, in
many instances, making tbo court the vebiclo
for venting mero personal spito. Cuffee was
largely represented of courso, both in the
crowd and in the business of tbo court. The
juries wero about onc-'.hlrd white. The noto
rious scoundrels, John Washington, Robert
Johnson, Elias Jones and William Jones, with
qm to a variety of aliases, were brought to trial
for tho robboiies committed on Mr. Stagger's
Homo timo since, and wero all, with tho ex

The threo former took tboir departure for

Tho Dcmocratis of Cincinnati scronadod Mr.
Pendleton, their candidite for Governor, on
Friday last. Iu the couruo of hia epoecb in
response to the complimout, ho said:
I ennnot agree with Governor Hay ea that tho
vexed questions of national politics are wisely
and happily Bcttlod; that tiro great questions
of liberty and uniou havo been solved, and the
reconstruction of the Union made safe. 1 can
not agrco with him that retrenchment, economy
and boacsly bavo been introduced into tbo
management of the Federal expenditures; that
tbo debt bne decreased and is decreasing as be
etatcB it; that theburdcua of taxation have boen
reduced and their weight upon tbc pooplo light
ened; that eouud judgment and freedom from
bad influences lip.ve been brought to the ex
eroiao of the immense power of tho Secretary
of the Treasury; that business ia active; that
ontorpriso ia active; that vigor, cnurgy and in
duBtiy arc bountifully rewarded; that employ
ment is abupdant; that daily toil ia fairly com
pensated; that commerce on tbo ocean and on
land is prosperous; and therefore 1 cannot,
Boronol; as does our worthy Govornor, turn my
f.icu fro'm nil questions of Federal polit tes und
look only at Stale afiairs. ? cannot say the
Union ia restored, wben Virginia, Mississippi
aud Texas arc under military government, and
Georgia without representation in Congress;
that tho Union is restored, when justice is
administered by a drumhead court-mar- i
Ual; that tho constitution is maintained,
wben wo know that tho Supreme Court
is only waiting for nn opportunity (o
declare tho Reconstruction acts unconsti
tutional. 1 oppose tbc adoption of the
Fifteenth amendment because it is a material,
radical change in our system of government.
It destroys tho relation of tho Stales to the
Federal Union which the constitution estab
lished, and deerndos them; takes away from
t'.ic States, without their consent, that ossontial
attribute ol a self-govctning community. Two
years ago the people of Ohio, without distinc
tion of party, by nu immense majority, refused
to amend the Hinte Constitution. I see no
reason to believe that (hoy have changed their
opinion. ' I object to its adoption because, by
the strongest implication, it confers upon Con
gress a right reserved to tho States, to ex
clude from the ballot persons of our own white
race, becauso of (heir nativity and want of
education or properly, and prohibits tbo exclu
sion only of another raco. If tbo inter
pretation of Senator Morton and Senator
Howard bo correct, under this amend
ment Congress aud the Slates may exclude
Irishmen, Germnus, Catholics, Protestants, or
the poor man from the enjoyment of f nOrapc,
but not the netrro or Mongolien. I object (o
Ho mi i. it ion because it is part and parcel o! a
?Cheine' to flood tbc couutry with a forced im
portation of an inimeuso number of Chinese,
coolies, and to brinir into our fallen race a more
difficult form of (he social and governmental
questions thai have so unhappily divided our
people.
Mr. Pendleton dwelt at some length upon
the financial qaostiou, rciteratiug his former
assertions in regard to the payment of
tho government debt and tbo bondholders in
greenbacks, and abolishing the national hank
system, nn?l the study of economy in reducing
the national debt.

The Statement of Mr. Joseph Crews.
Wo bave roceived c long-winded communi
cation from Mr. Joseph Crews, in reply lo tho
lot ter or Dr. B. S. James ou the aalc of tho
rolling Block of the Laurons Railroad, which
waa publiebed in The News of tho 3.1 inet.
The greater part of Mr. Crews' reply is made
tip of an ex parte accouut of his individual aud
confidential business dealings with Dr. JaracB.
Those, we take it, arc mattery of no possible
concern to tbo general public; and, oven were
it otherwise, tbc language of Mr. Crewa in nar
rating them is not such as wc could permit to
appear iu our columns. Bui as it is a princi
ple of The News to give every Bide a bearing,
we make room for tboce portions of bia letter
in which bo gives bis version ol tbo aalo of the
rolling stock?a transaction which baa been so
eevorely denounced, even by Govornor Scott's
own Attorney-General. Mr. Crewa writes :
a ? a ? *
Now, as to tho sale of the locomotives. One
A. M. Brodio and J. W. 8. Arnold obtained a
judgment in tbo United States Court against
the Luurens R.iilroadlCom.iany, Borne time in
the winter of 18C8, upon tho coupons of tbc
bondi of the compauy, tho paymont of which
bonds and coupons was guaranteed bv the
Stute of South Carolina. 'There wero Bold, un
der that judgment, three locomotives, ono sta
tionary engine, five box cars, two platform
cars, t wo push cirs and ono crank car. I bid
in tbo property in tho name of lt. E. Scott,
who at that time knew nothing of my actions
or intentions. I look a receipt from tho spe
cial deputy of the United Slates Marshal who
sold the property. I immediately went to Co
lumbia and notified Governor Scott of my ac
t km. Ho agreed to abide by it and whatever
'policy I doomed best for tbo interests of the
State. Tbc property, was put up aud sold to
the highest bidder, aud after being advertised
the number of days required by law. All Ihut
desired had an opportnnity t > bid, and Dr.
Jam -s could have bid off the properly as well
as 1 did. After (be property was Bold and Gov
ernor Scott was notified that tho road waa be
ing run to tbo great detriment of tbo intonate
of the road and State, he advised that I should
take charge of tho road, and cause all the pro
ceeds, except what might he required to pay
me lor my tervices, to bo apphd to repairing
the track and rolling stock, uni il unit could be
brought against tho company, and au equita
ble ailjuatmcnt mado of tho wholo matter, aa
but ween tho stockholders and the State. Tbo
8tato in 1859 guaranteed the bouda of the road
to tho amouut of $75,000, tho interest of which
was to bo paid sun. -annual! /. The bonds woro
made payable in twenty yeu-a, bearing inter
est of seven per cent.
Section 2d of tho "Act to afford aid to tbo
Laurenb Railroad Company," ratified 22d day
oi December, 1859, says : "That so soon as the
Bald bonds ahall have been endoraed, they
shall constitute a lion upon the entiro proper
ty of aaid compauy, including the road bed,
right of way, grading, bridges and masonry,
upon all tho stock subscribed for iu said com
pany, aud upon tbo iron mils, chaira, spikes,
equipments and apnuttcnancca of every kind;
and the State of South Carolina, upon tho en
dorsing of said h mils aud by virtuo thereof,
ahall be invested with said* lien or mortgage
without a deed from the company, lor the pay
ment V e Haid company of said bonds with tbo
inlcrc . thereon as tho same br comes duo;
and it shall not be lawful tor said company to
glvo, create or convey to any person or per
sons oe body corporato whatever, any lien,
inciimbr. 'Co or mortgogo of any kind, which
shall hato privity over, or come in conflict
with tho !i< n oi tho diato herein secured; and
any such ). .., incumbrtmcc or mortgage -dull
be null an-. void as against said lien or mort
gage of iK- State, and the aaid hen or mort
gage of the State shall bave priority over all
other chums existing or to exist ugainat said
company."
the property I bid in was sold under & judg
ment obtained upon coupons guaranteed by
the State, and for tbo paymont of which the
State held a mortgage upon the entire road and
tolling stock. Dr. James denies having sold,
bot says ho did, upon a few ocoasiona, exchange
a few old castiuge with the Greenvillo and Co
lumbia Railroad Company for new ones. 1 have
ascertained from tho shops of the Chorlotto
and South Carolina Railroad Company that he
disposed of 21,100 pounds of old oar wheels,
and 5195 pounds of axles, which ho had no
rieht to do; and further that ho disposed of
8C67 ponnda of eastings and actap iron to
Messrs. Goldsmith & Kind at 120 per ten. As
Dr. James is SO boni ni, I would b? glad to have
him inform tho public as to what hnsboccme of
all tbo springs, stool, and largo piles of iron,
and largo quantities of old iron formerly in
the dopol yard at Lanrene. I do not
htlicvo the rats at Laarens, be they ever so
la ige, bavo been able to carry off this iron. Ho
may answer it by aayiog bo exchanged it for
now material for tho Lauronii Road, bat every
one knows that this property is mortgaged to
the rit ate, and it was bis duty to replace the
etocK, which he wears ont, from the proceeds
of the road aud not from the original pi o port y,
of tbo company. Be is to as* tbe road ana pu t
it in order.' Whoever board tell o[$200,000
worth of property being leaned to ono w<.u or
set or men, without Home compensation l eing
giron to the company and to tho publie. If the
directors authorized Dr. James' to dieposo of
tho entire property, except tho road bpd, it cer
tf'nly beenmo tho duty of every good citizen to
bold tbo directors and Dr. James responsible
to tbo public for their acte.

?Victor Hugo lately gave a new proof of his
modesty. It is the annual custom of tho
Fi euch Academy to give a purse to whoever of

order to render the reception of the purse aa
little abhorrent as possible (o tbc member for
whom it is designed, it is offered "in tbo first
place to the oldest member; ho declines, and
it thcu goes to the next oldest, and so to tho
member previously agreed upon. This year
the purse was to goto M. Jules Sandcau. It
had regularly passed dowu the iist to the next
preceding M. Bandeau's, which bappeucd to
he that of M. Hugo, who, instead ot declining
witb thanks, kept the money and sent a letter
full of gratitude for the liberality of his fellow
academicians. The disgust of tbc academy
may be imagined.
General Boaurcgartl, it seems, dyes. A letter
from the White S.ulphui Springs, in sketching
tho notabilities at c recent ball thero, says:
"But what young man is that whoso raven
locks and moustache may be seen wherever
beauty and graco reign most decidedly? Some
one whispers that it is Genera! Boaurognrd,
tho great engineer and gallant soldier; but
surely that cannot bo, for the last time I saw
that great chieftain his hair was as white as
driven snow, and bis bronzed features were not
those of tbo ball room gallaut. But another
look convinces mo that toy friond is right, es
pecially when I remember the ready reply
made by tho brave chieftain to one of tho belles
who twittted him on this change. 'When I
was in command of an army,' said ho, 'I used
to dyo my hair whito to impress my soldiers
wilb a proper respect for my age and position;
but after tho war closed and the necessity
passe- away, I allowed it to return lo its natu
ral color I' May his locks never turn gray,
and may bo live long to enjoy tho society of
which ho is so brigbl an ornament."
?Somebody bae recalled a paragraph which
went the rounds of tbo newspapers in tbo oarly
years of the war, in which it was stated that a
son of Lord Byron wa? a major in the Federal
sorvicc, and that he was not, as might bo
Bupposcd, a natural eon, but the fruit of the
poot's secrotmarringo with a Spanish lady of
rank and a Catholic. Major Byron was de
scribed as a man well advanced in years, but
erect and vigorous, and bearing a remarkcble
personal resemblance to Lord Byron. Ho was
familiar with tho noble family of which he
claimed to ho a scion, and, indeed, had written
a three-volume history of its members. Ho
possessed many manuscript letters, personal
relics and othor mcmentoee of tho man whom
be claimed as his father, and could repeat
almost every word of Lord Byron's pootical
works. A correspondent of the St. Joseph
Missouri Herald writes to that paper, stating
his/acqualntanco with Major Byron, and recall
ing a conversation with bim on tbo subject of
Lord and Lady Byron's separation. Major
Byron declared that L%dy Byron unluckily dis
covered a portion of ber busband'a correspond
once with his Spanish wife, aud although by
tho law? of England and the .'awe of Spain tho
marriage was void, she at once determined
upon a separation. Major Byron mentioned to
the Herald's correspondent the subject of Lady
Byron's revelation to Dr. Loshtngton, and con
tended that it concerned -Lord Byron's mar
riage in Spain- The theory is, of oouree, within
tue boon Is Qf possibility, but it is repeated here
merely as an illustration oi the wide range of
speculation which has been wasted in futile
effort* to' disco vor the can se of ? famous matri
monial quarrel.

JcnuicJune, the sprightly fashion writer

couclndes her las: letter with th following
very readable batch of gossip fur li.o ladies:
Stopping into S to furl's on my wa 1 homo, tho
otuur afteroooD, it suddenly gr?ir dark aud
commenced ratainn heavily. TeVve. was no
help lorit, I was weather bouid; I conld not
ndo across town ,as no cars coin tbat direc
tion, aud tho luxury of a carnage on the occa
sion of sucb a hmall contretemps was not to
bo thought of. Tho losi of one hour or more
of rcy time was the great source of my regret
until one of the gentlemen present suggested
that I should utihzo it by taking a journey
through the establishment.
To this I assented, and wc took our setts in
a carpeted, handsomely mirrored aud ciubrou
cd car, and were rapidly, but with little pcr
coptiblo motion, landed on what I conceived
to bo tho top floor, until I found there wero
two more above us.
I am not going to either weary or entertain
my readers with the exact number ot feet con
tained in this enormous pile, nor (he size of
the square which tho whole b.aiding will occu
py when (Joupil's former art- gallery (now in
process of demolition) has disappeared, and
the structure is complete.!. Measurements
convey ideas to my mmd onlv by comparison,
and it will, thereforo, bo sufficient to -av that
each floor would contain u dozeu ordinary
tar in bouses?bar us, poultry-houses and all?
and that there aro eight floors, including tho
btaemont.
It i>>. now altogether tbo largest and most
complete commercial house iu tho world.
Whet it will bo when tho area ot several more
largo stores is adde.l to it, it tiro* one to think.
My object, however, in writing this paragraph
is not to eulogize Mr. Stewart or his enter
prise, but simply noto him as ono of tbo ex
traordinary facts of the day, and give sonio
idea of his aims, and what he is doing to bring
about their ac.-omplisbmt-nt.
Eighteen years ago, when he was about en
larging bis down-town store, a gcutlcif.au, a
merchant, Hind to him:
"Is it s jfe to do this, Mr. Stewart? Don't
you know that you uro a very unpopular
man?"
"Yes," said Mr. Stewart, "I am aware or
thai; but I don'l do business on that basis.
My methed is not to obtai'.i popularity, but to
compel people to buy of me."
iho merchant never saw Mr. Stewart a.^ain,
until a few days ago, and then looking around
at tbo vast roault, bo rein laded hint ot tins
conversation of eighteen years before, aud ac
knowledged that Ihc principle nrust have boon
sound.
As a man, Mr. Stewart is not a whit more
popular to-day than he was eighteen years ago.
He is the terror of all the small dealers whom
he undersells and out-buys. He is also tue
oraclo, he is the regulator ot prices, and it is a
fact tbat ladice will appreciate that if Mr. Stew
art should die to-morrow, pieces of dry goods
would go up twonty-ttvo per cent.
Of course bo has recognized the modem
idea of ready-made clothing for women and
children, aud witbin the email township ot
space which success has placed at his disposal,
bo aims to supply not only tho material for all
hinds of garments, but the garments them
selves, of every kind and grado, adapted to
everybody's wants and everybody's purse. Tbo
floor, by otio of tho windows dr which wo aro
still standing, looking: down upon tho attics of
the hotiBOB opposite, in devoted to tho manu
facture'of ladies' and children's outfits. From
four to six hundred girls and women aro em
ployed in this department, and tbo demand
would bo such that tho number m.glit be
trebled, if the work was properly superintend
ed aud tho piiruary idea tully carried out.
But this requires a womin as well as man.
It requires a woman of groat uitural capacity,
with tho experience of a motbor, tho taste ot a
lady, tho perception of an artist, the tact and
judgment or a financier, and tbo energy of
Susan B. Anthony. S.nno sucb woman ia pot
baps rcouring knives in her little kitchen, but
tho world ana Mr. Stewart knows nothing of
bcr, an! bis great design, therefore, of supply
in g all tho women in tbo wot Id with well-made
and well-fitting garment*, at a reasonable cost,
is marred and rendered Imporfoct by boing in
trusted to half a dozen incompetent superin
tendents.
It is true, howevf r, that even now a lady can
go to Mr. Stewart's and fit herself hom bead to
foot, and ow supply a family of children with
m any useful articles. Bat tbo departments are
not properly systematized, aud tho lines of
goods f.ro not complete; the garments are not
troll graded, and thsro aro no complete outfits
for ladies, children and infants, o! diff?rent
styles and prices, which would ropresent at
once to tho purchaser what conld bo obtained
for a given sum.
It is a haielifel opinion to advance, I know,
but 1 must say it: tho daja of family sewing
are numbered. Fifty years from now it will bo
I as rare for women to make the garments of a
family at homo as it is now for them to spin
tho linen. There is no reason why manuiuc
tuing bou?es shdnld Oht supply evory article
corn, at the cost of material. aud libjt, labor

the application of tho sowing roach mich an<l

abling tbo houso in a busy season to turn out
from two to three thousands yards of made
carpet per day, and thua supply customers
with great promptness and taoihty.
"Oh,dearmeI"8aid a lady near by,"only think
how many poor girls this throws out of cm
playotoiil." "Madam," said I, "think how I
onco broke my back over tho long, hoart-rond
ing Hcaoi of a parlor carpet. 1 am glad they
are tin own out of such employment.
1 am sure she thought I was a horrid v,retch,
ami I was willing she should, for I wab busy
thinking of tho happy future, when California
will grow us plenty of great white grapes aud
other fruits, which now we only took at wish
fully as we pass the windows ut the foreign
fruit ?tores. When Mr. Stewart will empty our
wortt-biskcts of everything but tho stockings,
und the bright carp:-ts ot thousand of cheerful
sitting-rooms will bo as commonly sewed by
railway as the fabric is now woven in the loom.
1 do not know Mr. Stewart, I bavo never
spoken to him personally, but I know he is
usually considered a bird man. Uc does not
Bend Ins omployces on picnics in summer, nor
glvo them entertainments iu winter. Ho docs
not like personal appeals to bis nymp ithios,
and le' m ikes i>s close a bargain "as bo can,
aud espeote people to stick to it; neverthe
less, I am not sure but, in his own way, ho is
a bcuciactor. - What ho will not do for an in
dividual ho is doiuglor thousands?be is build
ing, on the corner of Tbirty-lourth street and
For.rth-avcmio, a monster hotel, which will
accommodate nearly all the women in the City
of New York. Thcro working girls and work

bo tor the use of these and all other women,
and will furnish good meals at minimum

it will.bo lor women only.
Knowing ibo difticulticd that women have to
encounter ui every effort that they make toward
a life of independent, labor, not "only for want
of opportunity, but want uf habit aud training,
and sympathizing with every strtigglo. [ cannot
help thanking Mr. Stewart with all my heait
lor the great aid which he extends to tbo most
needy class of God'n oreaturc*. It is another
Ovidenoo that great wealth can never belong to,
or be employed by, any individual for his ?inele
use and benefit. He can use but ho much, be
can carry uolhiug away, aud tho path ot the
wise man or worn in wllo poss-.'Pscs great means
is, therefore, to emulate the ox impfe of Girard,
>f Aator, of Foabody, of Cooper, of Vassal* and
Stewart, and rmild ihci*- own monuments of
mort-imperishable materials than mere stone

?Although all nine ice sold in England goes
uudcr the name of Wen ham Lake ice, impor
.talion of ico from tho Amoiican continent has
long sircc ceased. Iu hard winters much ice is
now collected in England, and at least thirty
thousand tons are imported from Norway to
supplement the home supply. Estimating that
eixty thousand tons nro annually used tu Lon
don, it is believed that tbiB amount is far lees
than is used in .boston, Clilcago, Cincinnati
and other cities in this country. Americans
like ceil diinlu?. in rrintor as> woll as in Hum
mer, while Englishmen indulge in hot drinks
Julv and August, and have only lately
learned tho use of ice. Ice which costs five
shillings tbe ton in Norway, brings from
twenty-live to fifty shillings in London, ac
cording to tho demand.
?One of the officers attending the Governor
General at Halifax, minted tho Princo with his
band instead of his sword. The story goes
tbat in tbo Crimoa ho was convicted of an
offence punishable with death, but, by high in
fluence, he obtained a commutation of sen
tence, by whicb he was placed pcrpotually on
half pay, and had his sword riveted to its scab
bard. _ _ _
? A new outcry has been raised in New York,
about kcrosencoil, and tbo accidents arising
from its use. A list of fifty-two deaths arc
givon, as occurring in New York city, in one
year, from the u.-to of explosive oils. The ap
pointment of a kerosene inspector, with power
to prosecute dealers in explosive oils, is recom
mended.

himself at the close of summer as strong aa at He

cular and constitutional vigor oozes out of us in the

at the opening of the fall, are in the best possible
condition to defy Ihc unhealtby Influences of the
season.
Fever and Ague and Bilious Remittent Fevers,

that exhaustion invites these disorders, and that

jW SOLOMON'S BICTERS.?TIII8 PRE
PARATION, compounded by ono of our oldcat and
most esteemed dtugglsis, has, during tho short time
in which it has been offorod to iho public, attained
i a reputation which has almost entirely driven out of
mirkct Ibc various tonics and stimulants which, for
a few mon'hs, by exorbitant puffing and heavy ad
vertising, succeeded in building a profitable busi
ness for Iheir projectors.
Solomon's Bitters aro not of the flashy style, de
pending upon large advertising, bought puffs and
fictitious recommandations for a sale to a gullible
public. Their composition Is well known to and ap
proved by many of our beat physicians, and tho pro
prietors depend upon tho intrinsic merits of their
medicine to make It as popular as it is curative.
They do net pretend to offer a medicinal prepara
tion that will cure all tho Ills that Beau is heir lo,
but they do contend that tho judicious use of theso
Bitters c, ill greatly allcviato human suffering, and
bring very maoy to a stato of comparative health
who bave long been strangers to that great blessing.
Ono good genuine recommend atlou of any pro
fessed curative is worth dozens or hundreds of
bought ccrtiOcatcs, and the Messrs. SOLOMONS
bavo only published a fewout of tho hundreds of un
solicited testimonies which the bavo received. Wo
