BEWS OF TBE DAT. -Gold closed strong yesterday at 13jal3j. -In Liverpool cotton closed with a down? ward tendency; uplands 10j; Orleans ll jail.}. -In New York cotton closed heavy and drooping at 21 i. - The pneumatic bore in New York is in the .show business, twenty-five cents a peep. -New-fashioned bonnets show no increase In size, but considerable in price. -There ls a growing opposition to Forster's .?ducat Ional bill in England. -The friends of Rocnefort are no longer permitted to visit him in prison. - The Spanish Cortes have voted pay for extra service to the soldiers or the army serv ing in Cuba. -New York shopmen, on advertising Intent, are warned that defacing coin by stamping their cards on sUver change dispensed to their .customers, is an imprisonable offence. -Senors Eramezos, Valdes, Pous, Clsneros, TUverl and Valienti, who were tried by a court martial in Havana for causing a riot in the Villanueva theatre last winter, have been found guilty aad sentenced to death. -The New York Herald editorially says: "The carpet-bagger Whittemore will be satisfied with not a wit less, it seems, than a re-election to the House. His opinion ls that he was ousted by the inconsiderate action of (a few Hotspurs.' The absolute shamelessness of the carpet-bagger was never more apparent than in this. No man but of that class would care to show his face in Washington within public remembrance of his expulsion from Congress for briber}' " - Daniel Drew, the New York millionaire, celebrated his golden wedding on Friday, in the presence of children, grand-children, and great-grand-children, aud an assemblage of guests filling thc house to overflowing. Fifty years ago, last Saturday, Mr. Daniel Drew-then a poor, but inatotrions and amoitious youth led to the altar Miss Roxanna Mead. In the Intervening years, everything he touched seemed to turn to gold, and he Is now one of 'Jtxe few very rich men of New York. -The horse hospital attached to the New ' York fire department has been established for over three years. Previous to November, 180C, the sick horses were treated by private vete? rinary surgeons, and at much greater expense than under the present plan. The veterinary surgeon visits every engine house once a week, and either prescribes for the horsos or orders them to the hospital. In case of horses being taken ill, the fact is reported at the hospital and a spare animal is sent to take the place of the disabled horse. The New York fire depart . meat owns In the aggregate one hundred and 6lxty horees, all over sixteen hands high, strong,-sound, docile, and able to trot a mile in four minutes. In going lo a fire running is 1 not permitted, the prescribed gait being a four 1 n?nnte trot and a walk on thc way home. Thc ; principal diseases treated in the hospital arc j tender feet, bad legs, colds and colics. , -The New York Tribune, commenting upon tho fact that a Georgian, who was quite ravish- j ed by the histrionic excellence of Mrs. Oates, threw upon the stage a complete and hand? some set of furs, says: "It is to be hoped that this utilitarian taste will pass into a precedent. < We have (wc regret to say) seen actresses to I whom thc gift of a box of soap aud another 1 box of towels would have been most appro- i priate. We have seen actresses whose dresses i (to borrow Talleyrand's mot) 'began too late ( and left off too soon,' and to whom a few , gowns of tho usual length would have been a j seasonable donation. Flowers are well enough in their way, but they do not supply the solid necessities of thc theatrical ladies unless they ' are accompanied by ingeniously-hidden green- ! backs. We never sec one of these variegated 1 bunches thrown without thinking of the ox- I clamatlon of Pauline, in 'The Lady of Lyons:' i Ma, I wish I knew who sent me these 'ere greens.' " -A Washington letter to the Baltimore Gazette says: "I learn from one who knows, that the negro boy nominated by Butler for a cadetship is ia no respect qualified to pase the requisite preliminary examination, and that thc "hero" is perfectly aware of this fact, and 1 has so stated to anxious Inquirers among mili? tary men. Thc poor tool has been nominated on purpose to be rejected. But the shoulder j strappers on land and sea might as well make , .up their minds to soolat equality with the ne? gro race. All the Southern Congressional carpet-baggers who have been, or may here- ' after be, dismissed for bribery, will be replaced ! by negro representatives at once. In tho For- ! ty-second Congress there will probably be a ' negro force In the House of at least twenty, il i not thirty. It was a very difficult matter to | keep their heads down at the last election. ] Under the present laws it U manifest, there? fore, that the negroes must get into these national academies. Hence their abolition is be? ginning to be looked upon as the only remedy short of shocking the sensibilities of tho offi? cers of the army and navy. And, thus lt is, that every public institution, Federal and 1 State, designed for the solid education of the 1 rising generation, is In imminent danger of i destruction." -The New York Clipper publishes a letter from Sam Collyer, In which, after returning thanks to his seconds and to the referee, he says of the recent light: "I have no faull to find. Everything about the ring wa3 arranged ?s well as my heart could wish; and when I stepped In everybody could see that I was filled with joy to think that I had such a fair chance to wiu. I met with a misfortune In the third round which decided the day, however. My left lower jaw was shattered; but I managed to keep it to myself}* and lingered there all I could to repay those who had come so far to see lt. It was a mighty poor show, though; and none know it better than I do-so much so that I am ashamed to be seen by anybody. The other party ought to feel worse than I do, however, for they aro circulating a report that I scaled 128$ pounds, and some say 130 pounds. That shows a lack ot common sense; for when I scaled I was surrounded by Edwards, Harry Hill, Jim Colbert, Bob Smith, Dooney Harris and a room full of people. Everybody knows that Edwards could not be bought to fight me at that weight, and that Hie same men would not risk a cent on him at that weight. My weight was 123 pounds, and God and my trainer know the work I had to do to get to it. It looks mean and cowardly to make it appear that I was beaton at a weight whioh he never will dare fight at, unless he has a soft thing. If I had weighed an ounce over 124 pounds, Billy would not have stripped, sure." Congress and the States. The Washington correspondent of the Bal? timore 8wt writes on Tuesday that there is no longer any doubt of the attempt to re? construct a State already fully represented in Congress. Messrs. Arnell and Maynard, of the Tennessee delegation in the Hou^e, appeared before the Reconstruction Com? mittee on that day, and substantially pro? posed that Congress should upset the pres? ent State Government of Tennessee, on the ground that it had been placed in power in August last by a gigantic system of fraud that men were in office who were disfran? chised by the Fourteenth amendment, and that there wa3 but little protection for life or property there under the present state of affairs. They charged further that the reg? istration for the last election was illegal, that persons voted who were not qualified, and that the State Government did not consti? tutionally hold its place. The committee made some inquiries, and General Butler, the chairman, said that he had no doubt it was" a clear case for interference, and that Congress had the power and ought to exer? cise it He even went so far as te declare that Congress could interfere in Massachusetts, if necessary. The committee did not dis? cuss any plan, but will decide the matter hereafter. This is only the natural sequence of the powers assumed by Congress in reconstruct? ing the Stateo of the South. Whenever the action of thc Southern States, as States, was required, ihcy were treated as equal mem? bers of the common Union ; but when it was necessary, on political grounds, to give Rad? icalism a firm foothold in the Southern States, they were instantly treated as territories, absolutely subject to the supreme will and pleasure of a Congress in which they were without a voice and had no shadow of rep? resentation. A sliding scale was the rule. Again and again has Congress, as in the cases of Virginia, Mississippi and Georgia, deliberately violated the express pledges which liad been given to the people of the South. They were told that if they would eat a peck of dirt, they would be admitted to their old places in the one and indivisible Union. And when the thing was done, and the faces of the whites of the South were sufficiently blackened and bruised, Congress changed its tune, and de? clared that nothing le. s taan a bushel of hu? miliation would suffice.. . The North bewuied to expect that the Rad? ical majority in Congress could be usurpers and law-breakers in the Carolinas and on the Gulf, and still be 'faithful servants of the glorious constitution in New England and the West. This was a grievous blunder. The Radicals will not give up power while law-making and law-breaking enable them to retain it. They have tied the South, hand and foot, and now the wythes are ready for the binding of the North. Congress will go further than Tennessee. The legislation neceasary to give effect to the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments to the constitu? tion, and the so-called duty of Congress to guarantee to every State "a republican form "of government," will be made the whips with which to scourge into obedience the States of the West and North. The revolu? tion goes steadily forward, and the people are more concerned at the fluctuations in ?old than alarmed at the decline and threat? ened full of the "Republic ol the West." That there will be a change, which must be a change for the better, no man doubts. And the South is ready to meet it, whether it come clad in Imperial purple or in the guise of an anti-Radical majority iu Con? gress, which, proving itself an apt pupil, shall mete out to Radicalism as Radicalism metes out to.us. There is still the hope that the people may hurl down the usurpers of aur rights and privileges; not by elevating to pcVer a party pledged to undo what Rad? icalism has done, but by giving the direction Df affairs to statesmen who will plant them? selves firmly upon the constitution "as it is," md make their own liberty secure in re? specting the liberty of others. A continu? ance of Radical rule is a continuance of dis? cord, turmoil and confusion. And what the country demands is PEACE 1 The Press Conference. The conference of the anti-Radical press of South Carolina will be held in Columbia on Wednesday next, the 16th instant, as previously announced. Most of the leading papers in the State will certainly be repre? sented, and, as it is understood that the meeting is held for consultation and confer? ence, not for making or unmaking any party platform, there is no reason why every Oppo? sition paper in the State should not be pre? sent. As we have said before, the meeting may be made the means of a great and per? manent benefit to all our people. We, there? fore, again urge, our anti-Radical contempo? raries not to fail to attend. A Hint for thc Honsc. That was a neat point made by the Louis? ville Commercial, a Radical paper, in con? nection with the assumed intention of Gol ladny, who resigned his seat in Congress to escape expulsion, to go before his late con? stituents for re-election. It sa}-s: "Now, if "he should succeed in a re-election, the "House would have a right to expel bim, not "for the second, but for the first time. " It seems to us that this sentence might have been written expressly to fit the case of our own "Wicked Beu." In his ?ehalf we beg to repeat the suggestion, and commend it to the consideration of houorable representa? tives. Tbe Way lt was Don?. An election for Intendant and Wardens of the Town of Edgefield took place on Mon? day. There was no contest, as on the Satur? day previous a committee of the "Democratic "party" and a committee of the "Republican "party" met in conference and AGREED UPON* ONE AND TUE SAME TICKET. The Officers Of thc new council are : Intendant, D. L. Tur? ner; Wardens, T. W. Car wile, D. B. Duri soe, Lawrence Cain, Paris Simkins. Cap? tain Carwile won his spurs in the Confede? rate cavalry. Mr. Durisoe is proprietor of the Edgefield Advertiser. Lawrence Cain is a colored member of the Legislature. A Tear ot Grant. The leading political journals of the North are reviewing the first year of President Grant's term, and comment variously upon ita real or supposed fruits. The Democratic papers point exultantly to the wretched fail? ure of reconstruction at the South, to the burdens of taxation under which the people groan, to the utter prostration of the ship? ping interest, to the unsatisfactory aspect of our foreign relations, and to the shameless corruption that prevails in every department of the government, and ask whether these are the promised blessings of a Radical ad? ministration. The New York Tribune, and papers of the same ilk, on the other hand, shout over the final settlement of the negro question by the adoption of the Fifteenth amendment, the assumed reduction of the public debt, the strength of the national credit, and, above all, the recent tumble in gold, coolly assuming, as an effect of the supremacy of Radical men and measures, a result which is due exclusively to the extent of the production and exportation of the great Southern staples. But thc most can? did, remarkable and sigoificent opinion of President Grant is that given by the able and independent New York Sun, which will be found in another part of to-day's paper. It will be pleasant reading for the Radical admirers of TUB NEWS. "Forty Thieve*." The following paragraphs are published as coming from the Marion Star: 'There was a company of representatives In the last Legislature known as the .?'Forty Thieves,' composed, as we are Informed, of ? both Democrats and Radicals, who could be bought and sold for any price, from $25 up? wards, according to the position one held as commissioned or no/.-coiutnlssioned officer or private. This company had a captain, three lieutenants, four sergeants, four corporals and twenty-eight privates. We learn that the cap? tain was a Democrat from one or thc upper counties. * . * It has reach? ed our cars that some of our Democratic neigh? bors from the Republic of Korry belonged to this company, and we beg to inform them that we Intend to track this game to its haunts, and as soon as treed, Horry will hear us bark. Wo are loth to believe tho report, and we gently throw out this hint, that Democratic members from that county may know what ls flying about. "If these things bc so, and men in whom wc had confidence have become corrupt, we can only ask, upon what does thc future of our once proud little State depend F We do not believe that there is a word of truth in the charge suggested against the Dpmnfrntit; mP.mbcrS of tho Z-ogialaturo. That the band of "forty thieves" doe3 exist we do know, but only the plainest and clear? est evidence will convince us that any De? mocrat had anything to do with-it. We have but one code of ethics, whether the culprit be "Wicked Ben" or an up-country Demo? crat; and we now call upon the Star to say who are the Democrats whom it suspecta, and what are the proofs against them. THE Chester Reporter, whose type and material were destroyed in January last, is again published. The size of thc paper has been enlarged, and the make-up and typo? graphy are greatly improved. The Report? er is now a lively, good-looking and well-do? ing country paper, and has before it, we trust, a long and prosperous career. (2Eopart?crsI)ip iToticcs.
