If this ls so he ought to be expelled, for Masonry was not designed to shield rogues, J and any man who would make it a protection lrom Justice is un?t for Masonic fellowship. , -Wolf & Co., New York, importers ol laces, ' silks and velvets, at No. 473 Broadway, are ] charged by revenue officers with extensive ? falsification ol invoices for the past two years, and their stock, valued at $20.000, has been seized. There is evideuce of collusion of two i government officials, one of whom has in- , formed. Their names are withheld. -Among thc pxsscngers who sailed last week in thc steamship Tripoli, for Europe, i were Slr Beach Hicks, member ol Parliament; , General Harvey Mcivor, late of General Ksco bedo's staff in Mexico; Lieutenant Colonel Hunt and Major Mason, ol' Virginia. These officers go to Europe to enter the service of thc Viceroy, whose agent is in this city com missioning cx-Fe?-ral and ex-Confederate , officers as regimental commanders in his scr- ; vice. General Lorlng and Sibley and others, heretofore commissioned, have arrived in ; Egypt and assumed their commands. -The arrival of the "Samaria'' docs not af? ford mucli encouragement to those anxiously ] awaiting news of the "City of Boston." The | former certainly met witlras bad an accident , as could well befall a steamship-her shaft was , broken, and consequently her screw was alto- . gethcr useless. Yet within a comparatively limited period her captain managed to bring 1 her safely into port. On the other hand, the ' "City of Boston" has been out over sixty days, . and, so lar as we know, has never once been 1 seen or spoken with. It is possible, however, that if any disaster has happened to her, some | of her passengers and crew may have been saved in boats, and that we shall hear of them as sailing vessels come in. To that hope wo most still cling. -The Philadelphia North American favors the co uso ll ila L?O a of several small business firms into large ones as one of the most suc? cessful means ot retaining and extending business. Each concern entering into a con? solidation would bring with it capital, credit, trade, experience and enterprise, and the whole would make an agency and an influence that could not Lui to bc felt lar and near. It is \ maintained that the fleid at the We6t is not , sufficiently developed to warrant any Western . city in keeping such stocks as the seaboard 1 importers must of necessity. If this opinion should happen to meet the great eye of Chicago we may expect a scene. Thc American con? cludes that consolidation of small firni3 into great ones will do more to cheapen the cost of managing commercial business than anything j else that can be tried. For this proceeds upon , exaetly thc same principle as raUway consoli- , dation; and if one great company can manage ! a long line of railroad better and cheaper than the half dozen companies owning the links of 1 which it is composed, so can one large firm s manage more cheaply a volume of trade that, H divided among a dozen small houses, would ' eat itself up In charges of all kinds. . ( -On the 20th of January, the American i Episcopate and thc American College at Rome < received a visit from the Pope, where he was i received by all the American bishops now in that city, all the American priests, the stu- ! dents of the college, and many Cat holics lrom 1 the United States. A splendid life-size por- ; trait of his Holiness, just painted by the Araeri- f can artist, Healy, for the exhibition about to 1 be opened, had been sent to the college for thc <J occasion, ami was placed in a prominent posi- f ti on. In the ha!!, the letter says, thc Pontiff c spoke a tew kind and paternal words, and Archbishop Spalding, in the name of the American Chnrch, clergy and laity, made an address to the Pope in Latin. The discourse was excellent in language and happy in thought. The archbishop referred to thc fact that Pius VI had given us our first bishop, (Dr. Carroll, of Baltimore.) Pius VII had multiplied dioceses and given us our first Archiepiscopal See, and he, Plus IX, had established si- other Archiepiscopal Sees. So that in a country where sixty years ago there was butene bishop, there are now sixty, thrcc-lourths of whom are here in Rome to attend the General Coun? cil. Toward thc end of his discourse the good archbishop brought in a few touches of true American wit. This is what Italians woultr scarcely venture on such an occasion, and it was to them unexpected. Even the Pope looked for a moment puzzled, as if he could not conjecture what was coming; but as he caught the point, a smile spread over his coun? tenance, and the smile developed into a hearty laugh. As for the Italian prelates, at lirst they wondered-as who would not, at an American joke in the language of Cicero?-but at last not all their stately dignity could resist its force, and they laugh yet as they repeat it. The bishops, the superiors and students ol (he college, the priests who were present, and the laity approached to offer their homage to the Pontiff and receive his blessing. This over, he departed, but not until ne had declared that bc was delighted, morv' than delighted, with his visit. A Winning Hand. The result has justified our anticipations that thc press of thc State, giving utterance to the sentiments and wishes of the people, would cordially concur in the principles pro? posed, by the Columbia Conference, for the guidance of all classes of CITIZENS in the contest of October next. In one quarter alone has there been a whisper of opposi? tion, while from every section of the State come hearty, cheery words of encouragement and hope. The equal rights of all the citi? zens of the States are fully and freely recog? nized, and as an united people, as a grand league battling for good and honest gov? ernment, we make ready for the fall elec? tions, which, if we work harmoniously to? gether, shall give South Carolina an able, impartial and economical administration, Of which we may all be proud. These are the mauly declarations of the people, as read in Ute columns of the Abbeville Press, the An? derson Intelligencer, the Barnwell Journal. the Camden Journal, the Columbia Phoenix, the Columbia Guardian, the Charleston Courter, the Chester Reporter, the Darling? ton Democrat, the Darlington Southerner, thc Edgefield Advertiser, the Georgetown Times, the Greenville Mountaineer, theKing stree Star, the Lancaster Ledger, the Laur-" eusville Herald, the Marion Slar, thc Newber? ry Herald, the Orangeburg News, the Sumter News, the Sumter Watchman, the Union Times, the Walhalla Courier, the Yorkville Enquirer, and THE CHARLESTON NEWS. Of the live daily and thirty-two tri-weekly and weekly papers in the State, one only is avowedly RAD? ICAL in its policy and practice. Of the tbir! : six Opposition pa.X}?r%tiMnty-four (including four daily papers,) have already announced their approval of the platform of the Columbia Conference. They stand in line, bearing j :hese watchwords on their banners: EQUAL i rUSTICE AND EQUAL RIGIIT3 AND AN HONEST AND I.BLE GOVERNMENT FOR ALL THE CITIZENS OF SOOTH CAROLINA. Of the remaining twelve papers, eleven have not yet spoken and one i lias muttered a faint dissent. This is how the game stands. A Radi- \ cal may facetiously call it a hand of '-Seven up," but, with the cards they now hold, it will bc their own fault if the people of South . Carolina clo not score-High, Low, Jack and the Game. ^ Thc Sew Bombastes. The conclusion becomes clearer and clearer :hat Congress bad better let the Slates alone, its reconstruction policy has been pitiable. The design was to give power to a minority and to perpetuate their rule. No laws have been held sacred, and no principles have been esteemed worthy of maintenance which nave militated against this end. And yet thc favored class, unable to retain their power by constitutional means, clamor for new interferences, and would fain rel?gale Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia and Ten? nessee to a state of military despotism. Otherwise the new system cannot stand. Either the citizen roust rule, or thc bayonen? Lhere is no other alternative. Something like this idea seem3 to have possessed thc mind of Governor Scott in his recent self-stultification in Washington. He distinctly told the adventurers whom he ad? dressed that the Winchester rifle was the best law they could have. He threatened the government and the citizens of the States with this formidable weapon. He clamored for national protection for loyal men, and prophesied that, if it were not granted, thc rebels would be soon appealing to Congress. What does all this mean but war? The glimmer of rifle barrels appears hero and Lhere through thc reeking mists of declama? tion. But when the squatter Governor cried, n conclusion, "Let every man vote as he "pleases, coerce no man, keep no man away, "but let him go up and vote, and yourself de "mand the same right. I tell you the Win? chester rifle is the best law that you can "have there," what was this but the most palpable contradiction ? A ballot-box, over? awed by Winchester rifles, is precisely Scott's jyrabol of political liberty. It is certaluly :he only condition upon which he and his ?vretched clan could ever dream of pcrpetu tting their ill-gotten power. Scott's speech was lauded to thc skies, ["he Southern ring were unanimously in favor i if the rifles. For what other reason than ntimidation and oppression ? So far as scott himself is concerned, he is well known, ret he goes about the State wherever he )leascs. No one interferes with him. Ile i s as safe from bowie knives and pistols as he \ vas from thc rusty lancets and dirty syringes ; amiliar lo his hand of yore. And he is the ast man to speak of outrages in South Car- I .lina where he has thrust more rogues and ( idons upon thc community, in the exercise ; >f waat is called "Executive clemeucy," i than any other Governor in tho United States. 9 The measure in whose behalf he took the stump in Washington is confessedly a vio? lation of law. It is the amendment of Mr. Wilson providing for the prolongation of the Radical Legislature of Georgia for two years beyond the period for which they were elec? ted. The proposed policy involves, a3 the Radical Senator Schurz admitted, "an act "of wanton and flagrant usurpation." This gentleman warned Congress against "coun? tenancing or even winking at such an out "rage." And now what a decent man in Congress will not touch, Governor Scott ad? vocates. Not satisfied with filling our own State with Winchester rifles, he recommends the multiplication of the same deadly weap? ons among the Radical constituency of all the Southern States, and encourages their use in violation of the laws of thc land. Does Governor Scott forget that in some hands-say in those of a chicken-hearted blusterer-the Winchester rifle ceases to be a formidable weapon? Is he sure that, should the collision he invites ensue, some Southern lad with a squirrel gun could not drive himself out of the State, though he were festooned with weapons ns thickly as a I tent-pole, and were panoplied from head to foot in steal ? What our States need is precisely what Congress cannot, and Scott ? Co. will not, give them-a just and pure local govern? ment. But this they will secure sooner or later, if they are allowed to manage their own affairs and elect their own officers. And the Union will perhaps survive after Sancho Panza has been dismissed from the gubernatorial chair of Georgia, and Bom bastes Furioso from that of South Carolina. The Coming Amnesty. THE New York Tribune, alluding to the Universal Amnesty Message expected from President Gran t as soon as Congress shall have admitted Georgia and Texa3, justly remarks "It is a message which the country will "gladly hail, and the results of which will bo "far-reaching and beneficent. The Senate "should show its disposition to welcome the "measure by at once admitting the only "two States which remain unreconstructed. "TheD, with every State once more repre? sented in the National Congress, every "citizen a voter, and every rebel forgiven, "we shall bc ready, as a united people, to "pay our debt, rebuild our waste places, and "renew our career of magnificent material "prosperity. Hail the auspicious day !" ? WUITTEMORE wilts. Mr. Feriter, of Sum? ter, writes to a brother member of the Leg? islature, John A. Chesnut, congratulating him on his success in preventing Whittemore from speaking at Camden. Feriter tells Chesnut that "the respectability of the Re? publican party must be sustain?!," which is a bad omen for the clerical carpet-bagger. On Wednesday Whittemore harangued his constituents at Georgetown, and was fol? lowed by Senator Rainey (colored,) who laid bare the sophistries of the trader in cadet ships in an able and interesting speech. THE Anderson Intelligenoer, one of the ablest and most carefully edited of the inte? rior papers, has donned a new suit of type, and ita proprietors promise that more is in? tended to be done that thc Intelligencer may stand in the front rank of provincial jour? nalism. The Anderson Intelligencer is fight? ing the good light of social, political and industrial improvement, and has our best (vishes for its continued prosperity. THE Abbeville Agricultural Society has ap? pointed the following delegates to the Agri? cultural Convention which meets in Charles? ton on Tuesday, May 3d, next: James S. Cothran, A. B. C. Lindsay, W. A. Giles, A. M. Aiken, B. Z. Herndon, R. A. Griffin, Joel S. Perrin, John C. Haskell, William H Parker, Dr. J. L. Miller, L D. Gaillard, Dr. J. D. Neel, W. Joel Smith. TUE citizens of Cleveland, N. C., held a meeting last month and adopted resolutions protesting against the invasion of their township by Scott's marauding militiamen. Governor Scott is requested to govern him? self accordingly. ftcmooals. DR. J. L. DAWSON HAS REMOVED his Oillee and Residence to No. 55 Trndd street melli": 7 WJ.

IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT. GREAT REDUCTION IN PRICES. QUALITY STILL FURTHER IMPROVED. Wc beg ?eave respoctlully to call the attention of the public to our Superior Flavoring Extract. As ten years have now elapsed since we first In? troduced them to the notice of the American pub? lic, we deem it unnecessary at present to enter Into a lengthy description of their merits, Ac. There ls hardly a eity or town of any note In the country luto which they have not found their way. The reason of this widespread popularity and daily Increasing demand ls owing entirely to their peculiar excellence and intrinsic worth. Being determined to make them the Standard Ex? tracts of the day, we have still further Improved their quality, and now we firmly and honestly be? lieve that they stand without a rival. Our Vanilla Extract cannot be surpassed for richness and delicacy of flavor. It Is a strictly pure and high? ly concentrated Extract of Vanilla Beans. In short, we think it the West that is made, at least this ls the decision of the best judges la the coun? try. We don't pretend to compete In price with many of the so-called Flavoring Extracts of the day, which are really but worthless compounds, undeserving of the name. For quality and style, we defy competition.
