Pcntcnbaine, a subject of | France, but a resident of Charleston, S.

This was done, and a claim is now made for thc ?ame compensation in this case as was paid by the government to Maryland slaveholders.-' -The necessity for mother Pacific Railroad is enforced by Mr. Richardson, of the Galveston News. Who left San Francisco. September 27th, "and thus speaks or the obstructions likely tobe en? countered on the present route from Caliiornia: "On the 30th it commenced snowing while we went through the mountains. On the 1st Inst., we found the ground covered with snow some four taches deep, but by the next day, as we des? cended the east slope of the Rocky Mountains, all signs of snow disappeared, and the change of temperature was manifest. Some persons who have lived in the mountains several years, in re? ply to our inquiries, expressed the opinion that no efforts of the company could make this road pas? sable through the winter, and although the snow sheds are built with great strength and at an ex? pense of about twenty thousand dollars per mile, yet those who have witnessed the terrible snows on the mountains and the crashing avalanches of "snow slides," as they arc called, expressed the opinion that the snow sheds would tie swept away by them. lu fact, it is nearly the universal opin? ion that the road will be impassable for a consi? derable part of the winter, and all appear to con? cur ta thc necessity of a Southern Pacific Rail? road.'" The Working Classes. The war displayed the wonderful re? sources and effectiveness of American labor. It is estimated that more than one-third of the laboring class were in the army. Yet notwithstanding so great a dram there were labor-saving machines enough, and mechan? ics and agriculturists enough, to cultivate thc soil, to manufacture arms and equip? ments for the army and navy, to produce food for the people at home, and to main? tain the credit of the rival governments abroad. Thus the war not only exhibited the progress and power of tiie btates-it was the apotheosis of American labor. Naturally enough, tho working classes are conscious of this. They know how im? portant an element they form in the national constituency. And they naturally desire to win a just recognition, and to exercise an appreciable iniluence in the conduct of pub? lic affairs. Hence the eight hour law, the numerous strikes, the general unrest appa? rent among this class of our citizens. They desire a broader scope and demand a higher remuneration for their labor. That whatever is just in the demands of workingmen will be accorded to them we have no doubt Their services are indis? pensable to the community, and their claim to live and to thrive by their beneficent min? istry cannot and must not be denied. But let the laborer keep clear of the politicians, who will squeeze him like on orange and then throw him contemptuously aside. The workingman is a political economist, not a politician ; a bread-winner, not a wire? puller. His duejnfluence is to be exerted in concert with other classes, and not in hostility to them. His interests are not a monopoly, but harmonize with the general prosperity. His point of vantage is among his fellow-citizens, and only when he forms a clique under the control of a demagogue may he expect and deserve defeat. Harmless Pleasantries. It must have been prescience which in? spired the fierce onslaught upon the judici? ary, of which the Charleston Club-House was the scene and the black February of 1868 the epoch. Our readers will remember with what ferocity of invective the chair? man of the loyal, virtuous and intelligent body who then and there demolished the State of South Carolina, denounced the bench ss the constant bulwark of oppression and tyranny. Surely the chieftain of the Mackeys was gifted with .second sight; he foresaw the coming woe, and already armed himself to battle for his clan. To-day the predicted hour bas come. A peaceable gentleman of his race, sufferirjg from a violent attack of morphine, became the victim of strange hallucinations; he went a-shooting in the Council Chamber; he made game of the city fathers. Coffee was the antidote he needed, but, to his bewildered fancy, coffee was connected with pistols, and he took the'latter instead, and sought to ad? minister the renredy by clutching the stock in bis hand and pulling wildly at the trigger. The weapon was a defensive one and ought not to have gone off ; out then it must be remembered that it was taken at unawares. The pistol was not so much to blame, after all ! And as for the conduct of the Alder? men, that was admirable. Had the dignity of the State been endangered, they would bave sat serene as the Roman Senate at the irruption of the Gauls, and perished to a man. But with a condescension that does them infinite credit they entered into the fun of the thing. Tuey romped around with the agility of Pickwick at the review. Th) y humorously ducked under tables anu slid down banisters. As the patient gigantic Stoker said of his lithe virago of a wife, who was trying to beat him: " Let her go on ! "she doesn't hurt me, and it does ber good !" So the gallant Council dealt with a distin? guished colleague. Now, we would like to ask, what business a tyrannical, despotic judge bas with this little fraternal celebration? If there was smoke, it has cleared away; if there were pistol shots, nobody was hurt; if there was excitement, that was not extravagant in view of the precious moral conveyed. Heretofore, we make bold to say, that no? body ever suspected the ferocity and explo? siveness of morphine. In comparison with it, kerosene is harmless. Henceforth, let every'Alderman confine himself to gas. We have also learned with great satisfaction that the City Council are invulnerable. They have survived such arrows of ridicule as would 1 ive caused common men to die a thousaiid deaths. But now they show a superior power. They wear a front of brass, from which leaden bullets glance as lightly as they do from the hides of so many alliga? tors. This is a most encouraging circum? stance to many of us, who feared that our dear city fathers were in danger of commit? ting suicide, or of butchering each other in the Council Chamber. But now wc know that our fears are Idle. These civic sol? diers Full of strange oaths and bearded like thc pard. Jealous in honor, sudden and quick in quar? rel, Seeking the bubble reputation, Even iii the pistol's mouth These gallant men will never die that way. COXORESSMA.H BOWEN addressed a Radical meeting on James Island on Friday, and, according tu thu report, "did not fail to "prove tiie groundlessness of all charges "against his Republicanism.'* Notoue word was said about such trilles as theft, arson, forgery and wurdi The c'oak of Radical? ism ct vers .' i? eceujllloes of men lLe Bowet, "ho Indulge io every sin at Limes, T > p,- ?ve that grace is never lacking; An 1 purify thciusHvcs by crimes. As dirty shoes arc cl -aaec! by blacking. WE print to-day a highly important letter from Mr. John W. R. Pope, upon the sub? ject of the cotton worm and its effects upon the sea island cotton crop. Our correspon? dent, who supports his arguments by an im? posing array of figures, comes to the con? clusion that much of the damage usually at? tributed to the worm is really due to un? favorable seasons, that the time lo3t by a late spring is not made up by n late fall, that carly fruiting is thc great desideratum of the plauter, and thal with normal seasons good crop can be made, in spile of the worm, if the staple can be sold for ?iriecs commensurate with the magnitude of the crop. This cannot be done, and our cor? respondent ls clearly of opinion that the sea island planters must go into a staple which? | they can sell at fair prices, and make at a low co3t. In these views we fully concur, but we desire our readers to look and judge for themselves. OUR Washington correspondent says that President Grant will advise Congress not to reduce taxation for another year. Tb is may suit Mr. Grant who pays no taxes of consequence, but it will not be welcomed by the people who are taxed from their bead to their heels, from the cradle to the grave. We caro very little about reducing the pub? lic debt-posterity may take care of that. What the people want, and will have, is an immediate decrease of taxation. Mr. Bout well has millions enough to speculate with for the good of the government; let some? thing be done for the good of the people ! TQERE is a great to-do -because '-His Ex? cellency" and his followers were not offi? cially invited to the State Fair. When the Radicals elect to office men of decency, dig? nity and honesty, the State officials will be recognized in public and in private life; until then, the birds of a feather must con? tinue to roost together.
