Previous to t sermon the communion was administered, bre and water being used, and thc congregad singing aU the while their peculiar religious son{ Elder Curtis afterwards dcUvered a sermon in < fence or polygamy."_ The Situation in France. The twenty-eight opposition French di uties who demand "the right of the peoj "to govern themselves," are considere enough to say that they will use peace: means "unless an attempt is made to silen "them by force." However brave th? words, and however great their appare moderation, these deputies know perfec' well that none but peaceful modes of act! are within their power, and that the Man Destiny has borne and forborne so lor that the eighty thousand men who garris Paris will hardly be marched out to silen by force ever twenty-eight proclaimer equal rights and freedom. The policy of agei3 not the policy of youl Napoleon reflects, and doubts because reflects. The hesitation with which he charged may well be due, more to an an ions pondering of the difficulties of the 6it ation than to a paralysis of the energy a nerve which inspired him eighteen yet ago. For months past the Emperor h allowed the tongue and the pen full swin The restrictions on the press and the rig of meeting in public have become a dc letter, and as was expected, both journalis and mob orators make up for their long lenee by a revolting display of coareeue and indecency. Gleeful paragraphists wro with brutal joy of the "mortal sickness" the Emperor; they insulted the bones of I mother and assailed the honor of his wi] And yet Napoleon has not, as he might ha done, crashed out the revilers; nor has '. dispersed with the bayonet the meetings curb and gutter. Rochefort, himself, is n allowed the honors of martyrdom, but permitted to return to the capital and c come a candidate for the Corps Legislat In this way the Emperor has shown the pe pie at large that popular leaders know not tl distinction between liberty and license, ai that the men who are dangerous when tores ened with Cayenne or the guillotine, a harmless as sucking doves when tho offici , hand is not raised against them. The pim of powder confined in the crevice of tl rock may shatter the mass to the bas touched off in free air, it may scatter tl surface dust, but its breaking power nothing. It was not to be expected that the mo violent members of the opposition, wh< freed from all restraint, would contine ther selves to words. They did attempt to iii the Parisian heart and make the Faubour? ripe for revolution. When the 26th Octob dawned Paris was filled with veteran sc - m,iuatm,uaiBiiemuuiBuicame,liieciamrj the cavalry, the tramp of the infantry, tl rumble of the artillery were heard by a Paris-by St Antoine as well as by St. Gei maine. The Emperor showed his strengtl and the opposition demonstration was cor fined to an harangue in the Place Vendom by a half crazy citizen. The bourgeois? the rentiers-or holders of government bond and stocks-all who had something to los by anarchy and riot, felt that they had ruler who, whatever his faults, could giv security to their home3 and save their prop erty from destruction. We do not look for anew and bloody Rev olution. The holders of the public fuuds, num bered by millions, all the property-holder, in the towns, and the land-owners in tin country,*dread, whether they bo Napoleon ist, Orleanist or Republican, a violent chang) of dynasty. The opposition is not stronj enough to defeat the government in tin Chambers, yet it can do much to embarras; the Ministers, and can, if it will, secure tl? adoption of indispensable reforms. Nor i? the Emperor disposed to be stubborn. It h announced that he will select U3 Minister "a "man who can command the support of a "majority of tue Corps." This man will be hard to find; but Napoleon may deem it safer to throw some responsibility upon the Chambers, so as to secure in advance an excuse for such action as may be necessary in case of a new rupture. The danger of the situation lies in the fact that the prestige of the Emperor is oa tho wane. Mexico and Sadowa are not forgot? ten; nor the boyhood of the Prince Impe? rial; nor the ultramontanism of the Em? press. With the French, as with the rest of the world, to be successful is to be great They care little for the potentate whose sceptre is a distaff; nor have they any feel? ing save contempt for thc royal victim of misfortune. They require that France shall be prosperous at home and honored and feared abroad, and may now begin to doubt whether Napoleon can give them the fullness ot their hearts' desire. Now, if there had only been a Scott, and a Hubbard, and a constabulary, armed with Winchester rifles, in DacotahTerritory, Gov? ernor McDougall would not have been driven across the border. The fugitive Governor is calling for troops, and we suggest that '.ms Excellency," with Hubbard and all his men, bundle off at once to thc far North? west "His Excellency" has made money, and, judging by his big words, sighs Tor martial glory. We will take the brave Mc? Dougall, "unsight unseen," nor fear to lo.=e by the change. OUR Sumter correspondent speaks with deep feeling of the stealing of cotton by ne? groes in Sumter County. Thia eternal theft is as injurious to the honest negro as to thc white man. We shall see whether the Gen? eral Assembly will do anything to save our pjoplo from tho depredations of the mid? night robber. THE Convention of the Di trict Survivors' Association i f the State held ior tiic pur? pose ol organizing a State Association will conveno in tho South Carolina Hall, at 1 o'cloc':; tq-d.iy. It is expected that at ?east one-half of the ! tate will be represented by regular delegates. X XIJU V H/Vlli; li vj JL v The Pren of thc Routh. The South hos quite enough newspapers. Indeed, it may be questioned whether it has not already more of them than, with its pre? sent population, it can fairly support What we do want is that the papers that we have should be stronger in resources and circula? tion, and better and more enterprising me? diums of popular intelligence than they now are. Hence it is always with satisfaction that we see two of our contemporaries com? bining their capital, influence and business, to form a single press, which must needs be, in power, ability and management, the supe? rior of either, while in the number of its readers, the value of its advertisements, and the amount of its profits, it is likely to out? strip both. A notable instance of this kind is furnished by the Louisville' Courier-Jour? nal, which, uniting the strength pf two rival and well-established newspapers, has, in the course of a twelvemonth, become perhaps the most powerful and profitable journal in the Southwest. A similar consolidation has just occurred in Macon, The Journal and Messenger and Thc Telegraph having link? ed their fortunes, the combined issue to bo known as Tlic Telegraph and Messenger. They were both able, popular and prosper? ous papera, and the combination, we are sure, will bc a happy one alike for readers, advertisers and publishers. The outlay required to sustain., a good daily newspaper, now-a-dnys, is immense; and in all cases where tho income is inade? quate or precarious, proprietors would do a sensible thing to club their means, abilities and hopes in a common venture. The Bank of Charleston. Wc are authorized to say that the surplus fund of the Bank of Charleston, after pro? viding for all liabilities, amounts to $824,400, the securities held by the bank being valued at the prices of the day. The surplus, as above stated, is equal to $25 a share on the capital of the bank. An official statement of the affairs of the bank is about to be made to the Comptroller-General. A Radical Magistrate.

Tnn Quarterly Review, in its article on the Byron Mystery, omitted only one thing which would have rendered the contradic? tion of Mrs. Stowe complete. That one thing is now supplied in a second edition of The Review, from which we learn that the charge which Mrs. Stowe represents Lady Byron to have made, was "named by Lord "Broughton, and distinctly disclaimed by "Mr. Wilmot Horton on behalf of Lord By "ron." Tho conclusion arrived at by the reviewer is, that "if we assume the charge 'to be falso, we at all events clear Mrs. "Leigh. But if thc charge was well found "ed, or even if Lady Byron believed it tobe "well founded, we do not clear tor. She "still stands self-convicted of a prolonged "course of dissimulation and hypocrisy, "which is more likely to make angels weep "than hail her a spotless member of the "choir." DON PIATT, of the Cincinnati Commercial, says: "My friend and former comrade, the "Hon. Lafayette H?ge, M. C., who went to "South Carolina with a haversack and rc "turned with a carpet-bog, elected by a ma "jority o f three thousand against him, re? quested me to see the Hon. Wm.

TUB people of Sumter condemn the action of the men who burned out a dealer in seed cotton, but want to know why "His Excel "lency" does not offer rewards for the ap? prehension of those who burn down the barns and gin houses of persons who are not Radicals.
