Leverrler, VJC astronomer, lias cern removed from the directorship, a position which he has occupied since thc retirement of Arngo in 1854. The event has naturally excited a great commotion, as well in political as la scientific circles. Arago refused to recognize the Empire. Leverrier was one of thc most zealous supporters of the imperial re? gime. Por his prompt and eillcient support of Napoleon III. he was made peer of Prance, and such was the Emperor's attachment to him that it was supposed no ministry would attempt to remove him, though complaints of his in? efficiency, lt seems, have hecn current for many years. The ministry or Ollivier, however, dares do more than any cabinet the Emperor has had since the coup d'etat. Thc reasons for M. Levcr rier's removal were twofold. Ile knew almost nothing of practical astronomy. He displaced men who knew a great deal about it, after avail? ing himself to the fullest extent of their know? ledge. One of these was M. Faye, who had, In? deed, never predicted the discovery of a planet, but whose contributions to astronomical science far exceeded M. Levcrricr's, and who had thc ad? ditional good fortune of being a friend rf the Em? press. M. Leverrler's fall has excite.' ?io sym? pathy whatever In France, and the scientific world will rejoice that, as the new planet whose existence he ha l demonstrated in 1846 was not called by his nama, there will be no step neces? sary to displace him from the stars. The Citizens' Party. We notice that our neighbor, the Courier, in alluding to the proposed convention of the citizens of South Carolina who are deter? mined to rid tho State of the rule of corrupt and unprincipled men, speaks of it a3 the "Conservative" Convention. "We are satis tied that in political sentiment and aims the Courier is, at lui s time, thoroughly in accord with THE NEWS. But we must protest against its usc of a term, the adoption of which by the Citizens' Party would be one of those blunders which are said to be worse than a crime. Viewing it iu the light of political expedi? ency, merely the name "Conservative" has all the disadvantages of the term "Demo "cratic," without any of its compensating ad? vantages. Throughout all thc party con? tests that we have had of late years in this State, the colored people have been uni? formly taught to believe that the Conserva? tive was but a Democrat in disguise-that both were to be regarded with the same aversion and distrust Hence, to admit the epithet "Conservative" would be to enter upon the fight that is before us at a fearful disadvantage, as far, at least, as the colored vote is concerned. But there is another and a much stronger reason why we must repudiate the term. The party thnt is to win iu the coming strug? gle has no choice but to adopt a policy thc very reverse of conservative. It must be pre-eminently a party of progress, of prac? tical views and or prompt action. It must realize that "old things have passed "away," and grapple boldly with the living issues of the present. It must be ready to sacrifice alike the hopes and ambitions of in? dividuals, an 1 thc passions aud prejudices of classes, to secure what musl be won-suc? cess. Such a party-the party thr t is to save the State-cannot be, in any true sense, conservative. There is no name at once so unobjectionable, so comprehensive and so well suited ior the end in view, as "The Citizens' Party." "Just as Black as a Crow." In THE NEWS of yesterday we fully ex? posed the gross exaggerations and stu? pid contradictions of the majority re? port of the Committee of Investigation for the Third Congressional District, and at the same time we published the minority re? port of Mr. J. Bryant, a member of the com? mittee, who heard all the testimony, and is personally acquainted with the bitter parti? sanship and reckless behavior of his Radical colleagues. The committee led Mr. Bryant to believe that thc evidence taken by them would alone be submitted; but this would not have made a sufficiently striking story of rebel misbe? havior, and the committee therefore printed the "hearsay evidence and leading ques? tions" which form thc bulk of the report Mr. Bryant at once prepared a miuority re? port whose statements ~arc moderate, calm, aud, we believe, entirely true. > Wo admit, and have never denied, that "lawless ruffians did imbue their hands in "the life-blood cf their fellow-beings," but .hose outrages were few and far between; md may well say that "Hie large masses of alie intelligent and respectable citizens kept .their feelings within due bounds, and exer? cised toward their opponents that Christian "charity so characteristic of all well-regu? lated communities." Mr. Bryant says, un? hesitatingly, that the "ghost of hobgoblins ''and jack-o'-lanterns of the Third District "arc the offspring of t'.ie vivid imaginations "of New England politicians," and that "the colossal reports of gigantic election 'frauds" are "as absolutely false as the base? less fabric of a vision." In conclusion, Mr. Bryaut directs attentiou to the very obvious ,'act that the majority of the committee, in .heir report, quote only that testimony which supports their views, anti ;gnore the testi? mony of a vast number of witnesses, which testimony proves the majority report to be a tissue of falsehood and misrepresentation. ? What more need be said? The majority report ie, upon the face of it, a mass of mis? statements and contradictious, and a re? spectable citizen, who was with the commit? tee from first to last, solemnly declares that its reports o? general violence and colossal frauds aro "absolutely and wholly false. The work is done; the money is paid; H?ge, thc iefeated Radical candidate for Congress, sits safely seated in Washington. Let us, then, lear no more of this new version of the old talc of "Three black crows." 4 ? i r-i ? i r Thc Senator from Mississippi. Thc Octoroon Revels has taken bis seat in ;he Senate of the United States. Verily the Radicals are bidding high. They are risk ng thc existence of their party and the civil .iglits a?d privileges of their sable pr?? logos, in the hope of consolidating eight mildred and fifty thousand colored votes ipon their next candidate for tue Presiden? tial office. It will be found, when it is too ate, that both these measures wore political .hinders. For our part we have just this to say in regard to thc admission of Revels to the Senate, that he appears to bo no worse a man in character, standing or intellect than many of those who have been sent to Con? gress from t'ue Southern States. The charges urged against him are not to be spoken of in the same breath as those urged against Bowen, Whlttemore, and others. He is not more crooked thau V\"ikon, or more narrow than Sumner. Nay, he has just given a les? son to these last named worthies, by induc? ing the President to refuse signature to a bill for the admission of Mississippi, until a bill for the removal of political disabilities shall have passed both houses. But what will the Northern voters say to this elevation of a colored man in the national councils-a colored man who is in friendly alliance with the disfranchised classes at the South-a col? ored man who begius his senatorial career by dictating terms to the Radical leaders ? The situation is ludicrously awkward. This, at least, is sure. The colored peo? ple, as a class, do not desire that social dis? tinctions should be obliterated. No people are more tenacious of social standing than themselves. In Liberia the lines of demar? cation are drawn as rigorously as in the courts of Europe. In this State they have drawn off into their own churches, their own fire companies, their own benevolent asso? ciations, having more liberty and more en I joyment in these fraternities among their own race than in promiscuous societies. The race-instinct they cherish is remarkably strong. Wc, therefore, do not believe that once assured of their own rights, they will seek to trespass wantonly upon the rights of j others.__ THE veto message of Governor Scott sets forth, in a clear and forcible manner, the many objections to the Phosphate bill,, so often discussed, and as often condemned, in these columns. That the Legislature passed the bill over the veto so promptly, is another proof that, with the law-making majority, pocket is moro powerful than principle. THE returns of the late census of South Carolina, which we publish to-day, will be found to present a very interesting and sug? gestive array of figures-the strongest argu? ment that can be urged in favor of the prompt and thorough organization of The Citizens' Party. %05t ano ion no.
