Address RIORDAN. DAWSON & CO., No. 149 East Bay, Charleston. S. C. FRIDAY, APRIL 1, 1370: 2TJBW8 OF TUE DAT. -In New York, yesterday, gold closed at 113. -Cotton closed steady at 22$ cents. -In Liverpool cotton closed quiet and steady. Uplands 10*; Orleans ll Jailed. -One firm !.n a Minnesota town shipped 40,00!) rat skins to market last week. -'.Shoo-fly" has Doddered Bryant's Minstrels to the extent of about $10,000 clear gain. -An important meeting has been held at Qncbec to encourage manufactures, which, the speakers declared, could be carried on in that city more cheaply thau almost in any other part of the woild. -General Walker reports that the Chinese imported By hin to work on the Texas Central BaUroad labor steadily with docility, and evince not the slightest inclination to strike. He is about to send ft * more. -Richmond v ants the James River deep? ened Trom 13 to 18 feet, and $200,000 to do it with. A committee has been urglug the mat? ter upon Congress; $22,500, it is said, sufficed In 1SJ2 to give a depth of 13 feet where there was but 10 before. The appropriation of $200,000 they say will assuredly give 18 feet now. -The reports from fifty-one oil districts in the Pennsylvania regions show an aggregate increase in daily productions in twenty-one districts of seven hundred and ninety barrels, and an aggregate decrease in twenty-six dis? tricts of three hundred and sixty-three barrels, there being no change in three districts. Thc net increase of daily production was, there? fore, four hundred and twenty-seven barrels. -?A new bill for the regulation of peddling ls announced in tho Massachusetts Legisla? ture. Among the articles enumerated in whi -'li peddlers arc forbidden to traffic* are indigo and jewely. Thc reasons alleged for these prohibitions are indicative of a belief that the class of salesmen who. disposod of wooden hams has by no means lost its cunning. Jewelry is not permitted because bf the facility with which the spurious manufacture can bc passed off as genuine; and there ?3 a clay in Connecticut that can be so colored that one eighth part of indigo is sufficient to make lt saleable a.. the pure dye. -As a melancholy interest attaches to every Incident that possibly may afford a clue to the , late of the City-of Boston, the following, from .the log of thc brig Iaboatia, at New York, from Pernambuco, is worth placing on record: -*lMarch 22d, at 6 P. M., passed through a large .?quantity of wreck stuff, consisting of panel .works, deck houses, Ac, which appeared to have been not long in tho water. Also passed a boat, bottom up; thc boat wo3 varnished. , The wreck stuff extended for a distance of two j miles." Regret ls expressed that the captain, did not make an effort to secure thc boat or obtain some other proof of identity. -The Darien expedition has reached Cale? donia Bay and started upon its work of ex- ' proration, and ali connected with the* exped;- ' tien are very sanguine of success in discover- < lng an easy route for thc construction of a ship i canal. Contrary to the general expectation i the Indians have thus far been very friendly, i though somewhat frightened, and have assist- i ed the explorers in every possible way. The , expedition has already cut a road three miles in length into the interior, meeting with a ' river which Is said to How, Into the Pacific 1 Occa.i. Captain Heine, an American, who ar- 1 rived at Aspinwall by thc steamship Alaska, i en the 1st instant, claims that bc knows of a < route across the Darien superior to all others, l by which he can pass from Aspinwall to Pana- ? ma entirely by water. In proof of this asser- ( tion he chartered a small sailboat, and, accom- j ponied by two men, had starte I on his voyage, arriving safely at Caledonia, but when he will pul In an appearance at Panama it is not easy to conjecture. -4iMack.;' the Washington correspondent of the Cincinnati Enquirer, recites the following painful narrative. "In conversation with a rery Intelligent and accomplished lady from Maine a few days since, I learned thc follow? ing facts, which throw a shadow of a sad ro? mance over the Oneida disaster. Commander Tniliams, the highest officer on thc vessel, and one ofthe lost, was a widower, of some? thing less than forty, and the father of two aright little children. In May last he contrac? ted an engagement fer a second marriage, .which was to have tak<-n place very soon after the arri ral cf the Onella in the country. I be? lieve it was fixed for thc middle of April. He left thc United StatC3 for Japan" in June last, and Just before his departure he was oue ol' a dinner party at which my informant and the affianced bride were also present. Had he re? turned safely lie would have known a fate which his brave heart would not have met with the cool courage that faced death at his post on the. quarter-deck. Since thc first of January his two children aud his intended wL'e have died. When he left Japan he had not heard this sad news, but supposed he was coming home to meet them all in health and happiness. So to one, at least, of the gallant men who went down in the ill-fated steamer .death caunot be called disaster. -Mrs. Harriet Beecher Stowe must bc happy. If we are to btlieve the story of an un -jnannerly "interviewer"' who recently thrust his unwelcome face into her presence in the quiet of her winter home among thc orange groves ot Florida. Here, lie says, he found Professor Stowe and the little Stowes. To start with, this ubiquitous quilldrlvcr asserts that the Professor furnishes suggestions for the sermons of the redoubtable Henry Ward Beecacr ! Then he thinks Harriet looks qare- ! worn, and tells us that when warm weather arrives, she and her two daughters will return to the East, while Fred. Stowe, his cousin, and the wile of the same and a buxom baby, will remain to run the plantation. The prop? erty of the Stowes consists of a two-story house, constructed ot yellow pine, with a neatly decorated portico. Thc inquisitive scribe oven insinuated hlmselt into thc bedrooms of the house, where he found both at the head and foot of each bed illuminated placards, with ex? tracts from tho Bible printed thereon. Tito product of the orange groves will average about eight hundred.oranges to a tree, and sell from $3 '?0 to 55 per hundred. Between thc river line and the orango grove is a large tract ol lowland where Mrs. Stowe is cultivat? ing the India-rubber tree anfls'tigar-cane. The negroes on the plantation are paid $16 a month. When Fred, attempts to be strict with them they promptly retort; but il Mrs. Stowe speaks only one word to them they arc gentle. The estate where all Ihis delicious comfort is en Joyed cost tito Stowe family but $2500. cash. Gutta-percha. The Radicals begin to realize that a party may overreach it3elf. It may become too virtuous, tis in the case cf Whittetnore aud Ames. It may become too reckless, a3 in the case of Sickles and Butler. It is notori? ous that the poor Darlington parson hus been sacrificed for doing what everybody in Con? gress is doing, .iud that the Mississippi sen? ator is quashed by reasons that would ex? tinguish thc Governor of South Carolina. And everybody knows that the most aban? doned pimp of the Bowery represents lite United Slates in thc proudest monarchy of Europe. There is reason to fear that out? rages of this sort will become precedents. It is said that on a certain occasion, Quin, tho famous Irish wit, was disputing concern? ing the execution of Charles I of Englaud. "By what laws," said bis opponent, "was be "put to death !" Quiu replied: "By all the "laws tbut he had left them!" This story luis a moral for us. For ten years the Radicals have overthrown every law that opposed their designs. They li*ve imprisoned, released, disfranchised, enfran? chised, taxed and bullied whom they pleased. They have threatened the Chief Justice, Bnubbed the President, confiscated the tele? graph offices, seized the accounts of firms and companies, and ravaged and rampaged in every direction. Now that a new party is soon to come into power, what is to pre? vent some of these law-breakers-say the two Butlers-from being put into the peni? tentiary? Cannot Massachusetts spare the one as easily as Tennessee the other; and is thor? any law whatever to forbid their being hung in effigy-or otherwise ? The Radicals aro playing a dangerous game in making the law dependent upon the caprices of a majority. When, in a year or two, the South and thc West control Con? gress, it will be simple pity that will spare the fools and the knaves of Massachusetts, who now mould the government to their will. As wo are iu a story-telling humor, we will mention another incident from Eng? lish history. The English lawyers, follow? ing the venerable Sergeaut Mayuard, wait? ed upon the Priuce of Orange, afterwards King William, on bis arrival in Loudon. The Prince took notice of- tho great age of the sergeant, who was then near ninety. "Sir," said he, "yon have outlived all the "men of the law of your younger years." And Maynard replied: "I should have out Wived even the law itself, if your Highness "liad not arrived." Such is precisely our condition. Uuless the CITIZENS' PARTY pre? vails in our couutry, no law remains. Our Own Folley. Thc Winnsboro' Xe ?cs, which is still of the ?pinion that it is impossible to keep Federal politics out of the Fall canvass or the Juue Convention, declares itself in favor of a new national party and calls upon THE CHARLES? TON NEWS to show its hand. Upon the first point, it is sufficient to say that Federal politics will be kept out of the Fall canvass by the outspoken determination of thc people to select and sustain for State and county office the best men whom they can get, whether these men voted for Grant sr for Seymour in the elections of 1S6S. rhero is no Federal issue, direct or indirect, ;o be decided in the Slate canvass. All that ?ve have to do, und desire to do, is to pull Jown the bad and set up tho good, to rc- ? move corrupt and incapable oilicials and re? place them by men who will servo the public faithfully and wei!. Whites and blacks, Democrats und Republicans, think, and will ? ivork, together. The common danger has :aused disinterested differences of thought < ind habit to be set aside. Our one great -Vant i?, AN ABLE ANO HONEST STATE GOVERN? MENT. To obtain this is the aim and object )f thc citizens of the State. The convention ;o be held in Juue next cannot touch Fede? ral politics. It 13 a convention, not of Dem jcrats or Republicans, but of the people of the State who are "in favor of a good and "honest government." This is all. And the convention, in our judgment, can do uo more than nominate a State ticket, which shall promise some degree of security and prosperity, and which shall stand a good chance of election. No thought of Republi? canism or Democracy can govern the delibe? rations of a convention whose wise action is of the first importance to every good citi? zen, whatever his politics or race. Our Winnsboro' contemporary wishes TnE NEWS to show its hand. This is easily done. The policy of THE NEWS is THE PROSPERITY OF SOUTH CAROLINA. This can best bo so cured at this time by avoiding both Democ? racy and Republicanism. When the Fede? ral elections of 1S72 approach, it muy be necessary to take a uew point of departure. This paper is not tacked to the tail of any Federal party, and will in the future, as it has tried to do ir. thc past, support just that parly which doos the most for the whole South, and looks with a friendly eye upon the fortunes of the State. TI1L3, in brief, is the utilitarian policy of the times. THE Carolina Spartan announces in em? phatic terms its cordial approval of the reso? lutions of the Press Conference. Out of thirty-seven daily and weakly papers pub? lished iu South Carolina, twenty-eight huvo already come into line. This is, indeed, a grand upheaval of the sentiment of the peo? ple. TnE President's plan of amnesty, it is said, is not to require conditions and a long recital, as in Butler's bill, but to relieve at once every man who will apply to the courts and say that be is disqaoliiied by the Four? teenth, amendment. Reviews. So Ress TrtK WORLD AWAY. A Novel. By Mrs. A. C. Steele, Author of "Gardenhurst." New York: Harper & Bros. Charleston: John Russell. Fresh, bright, peculiar-this new novel with its pretty suggestive title, is worth a special notice in these days of fustian. Far above the average in style, incident a:?d dramatic por? traiture, it is thoroughly original and unusually true to nature. Frankly, its morality is rather that ol* tho world than of thc cloister; it deals with living mer and women, and not with carefully manipulated automata. Mrs. Steele is not one o? those "'nattering painters" who "draw men as they ought to be, not as they .'are.*' She bas studied life carefully, and she writes with a truthfulness that ls startling sometimes in its freedom from conventional hypocrisies. Yet she is neither vulgar, nor in? delicate, nor uncleanly-and we who have seen "Ouida" and read (not loved) S'Not Wisely but "Too Well," know how to be grateful to her for that. Her people are neither bad nor goody in ex? tremes. "Lady Di'' is a powerful, fearless, naturaLs?cetch, and "Mowbray" and "Azalea" are almost as well done. .. Ol' course the book is painful. But, in point of fact, thc bad people do not always come to utter grief, nor the good marry and live hap? pily forever after. The moral of life, after all, is very much now what it was in Hamlet's time, and Ibis story is very true to its motto : "Why let tho stricken deer go weep, The hart nngalled play For some must watch while some must sleep, So Huns the H'orld.Aicau.''
