In which he says thc practice which has heretofore prevailed cf publishing inc annual Hst or assessments made in thc income returns or taxpayers mnst bc dls con:lnued. He believes that this practice is not for the best interests of thc government, bot that it is in many respects objectionable and offensive. This, however, will not prevent thc public from inspecting lists, as heretofore, under the provi? sion or section 19, act Jnly 13.1500. -It is reported In Paris that the Prince Impe? rial of France, who has lately passed lils four? teenth year, is soon tc be betrothed to a "German princess of high lineage." As thc Emperor of Austria has one daughter, the Archduchess Gisele Loulse-Marle, who ls now In her fourteenth year, it is supposed she may be the "party of the second part." She was born on thc 12th of July, is-,-,, while the Prince Imperial was born on the letti or March, 1S5C, so that the Austrian Princess ls just four months yonnger than thc French Prince. -Captain Hall, the Arctic explorer, ha*, it is thought, hit upon the true theory of travel and exploration in tire icebonud regions of the North. In his next expedition he will not make the mis? take which was 'aral to Sir John Franklin's expe? dition-that of attempting to subsist his men r?n ship food. He ami his men will live npon tin food appropriate to the Arctic regions, and <v?r? thus, it ls bellevrd, obraln the hardihood width wm enable them to prosecute their discoveries to the very pele. -It may Interest vessel owners and seamen to learn that the experiment or water ballast for iron ships has been satisfactorily tested ami promises to have a marked effect in the cconomv or navi? gation. Vessels built with water compartments can thus take in or discharge ballast at any Ump, keeping themselves In perfect trim. Sfcan-trs thus provided may begin a vojage with no b ' last bnt their coal. As this Is exhausted, wa', r conld be pumped In, and the necessity or startin - with an overloaded ship tn order to carry suth-" cient coal for the voyage and ballast to Rene when the fuel ls nearly exhausted, could be en tircly overcome. The plan has already been < \. ienslvely adopted ia pleasure and racing yachts to diminish the danger or the vessel sinking In case or being capsized. Many ol the finest Tyne built ships are now being constructed on this riaciple. -A Washington dispatch of Wednesday to Cte New York Tribune says: ? The question or the C ont [nuance or the Income tax, as appears by I ettera and information received here, ls probably me most iuteresting subject now agitating the public mina. The tenate Finance Committee as has been stated, has reported as a substitute for the House bill a proposition to continue the tax after this year at the rate of three per cent. In thc meantime remonstrances arc pouring in ?pon senators from every part of the country, earnest y protesting against any further imposition of the tax. !t is known that quite a number or the large corporations of thc country are refusing to pay any further income tax on their dividends, holding that those to whom they arc ?lue are not chargeable with thc Incvmc tax arter the year 1869, and the Pennsylvania Central llallroad lias ob? tained the written opinion of eminent counsel, sanctioning this refusal. lu view or ihe?e cir? cumstances the internal revenue department ls in great embarrassment, not knowing whether to make seizures o;- not." -Mexico is In a state of ferment. Thc San Luis and Zacateca^ rebels still show signs of life, Gen? erals Cadena, Martinez and thc rest of that class or revolutionary leaders are still oa the war path. Cnabl? to take the field in large numbers, they have rallen back, as a dernier retort, on a guerilla system of warfare, fighting and levying forced loane, bushwhacking and making de? scents on undefended villages and towns. 'S?? grete has made his escape rrom the capital, not? withstanding the vigilance or thc police to effect his capture, and moves about In thc vicinity or Puebla incognito, dreaded by everybody. Fears are entertained or an attack on the city or Mex? ico. The railroad, however, is sarely gnatded, and has not been touched by the Insurgents. Juan Lucas was in the Puebla mountains, still fighting against thc government. The Apaches have de? scended upon Northern Sonora and Chihuahua and murdered many citizens. An enpineerins party ror the Rio Grande and Gnayamas Railroad had not been heard from. Congress was to meet on the 1st or April, when thc abolition or the Tree zone was expected. Thc mining interests are yet undisturbed by thc rebellion, but thc commerce or the country is depressed. Thc volcano at Ccbourco ls emptying, and a shock of earthquake was recently felt at Oaxaca. These arc the Inci? dents which go to make up the latest intelligence from this unhappy land. ?Weighed anti Found Wanting. There are none so blind as they who will not see;aud the Lords of Misrule, who would poer contentedly forever through thc jami diced spectacles of party politics, refuse to clear from their sight the mists of prejudice or the films of selfi?h feeling. Perhaps they are right. ? popular movement is now afoot whose success is their destruction. Well may they, therefore, threaten with awful consequences those who dare to assert that South Carolina has not the "wisest, purest . and best government" known to modern civilization. Fortunately, however, langi hie fads are not easily overcome, even by the combined powers of rhetoric, innuendo am] downright abuse. The Slate Govern ment of South Carolina is weighed in the balance and found wanting-wanting in hon? esty, wanting iu ability, wanting in a due appreciation of the necessities of the times, wanting in a proper regard for the habits and temper of thc people. And now an effort is making to obtain for the State a capable and temperate government, which shall represent thc interests of all classes sustaining every project whose aim is the protection of labor, thc education of the poor, the elevation of the lowly, and thc steady development of agriculture, manu factures and general trade. Such a govern? ment we have uot, and such a government we cannot have unless better and wiser and loftier men than our present rulers arc placed in public office. The Radical administration has been in power more than two years. It has had vast opportunities for usefulness; it might have won public respect and public trust. Hut thc guilty scheming of some, and the inex? perience or ignorance of others, have caused our State government io oe a by-word and reproach in the mouths of honest men. Even The Kation, the head and front of American Republicanism, 13 forced to declare that "thc "Legislature which has just been adjourned "was one of thc most corrupt assemblages "that ever legislated for a State, and one of "Hie most contemptible in point of ability." The whole object of legislation and official action has been, not the common good, bul individual profit. In one notable instance the financial policy of thc administration the measures which improved the State credit fiiiod to overflowing Hie coffers of official speculators. But apart from this, the His? tory of the last two years is a loathsome record nf nepotism, extravagance and fraud. Ti.ore has been no adequate appreciation of ! ml ilic right or private privilege. Nothing bx s been done for the effectual protection aud se- i rarity of the working classes. Personal ag-1 grandizement has been the sole purpose of the plotting and contriving which have brought shaine and disgrace npon Hie fair fame of the State. There has been a modicum of wise and proper action; but what is this against the long array of foolish and wrong? ful legislation? Rut onr-half penny-worth o? bread to this intolerable deal of sack ! To secure the good and avoid the bad; lo cast out the unfaithful stewards, and put in thc-'r place faithful servants of the public; to retain whatever there may be of trustworthy in the existing administration, and join to it fit representatives of the whole people; to obtain, in fine, a government under which commerce and agriculture may nourish, and the high and the low may enjoy prosperity and content-lids is the whole aim of the CITIZENS' orREForcr PARTY. It doe3 not seek the down? fall of Republicanism or Democracy; for ita object is dear to all good men, whatever their party name. It does not seek class aggrandizement: for it recognizes the right of all classes to representation in thc coun cils of the State. It pledges to the while mana just and exact government; and it promises the colored man, and secures lo him. the continued enjoyment of all his rights, and the amplest assertion of his position, under tile law, as a citizen of South Carolina. May it net, then, be fairly claimed that thc CITIZENS" or REFORM PA UTv deserves the cor? dial support of every true citizen, and may we not believe that there is energy and intelli? gence enough among the v. hite and the col? ored citizens of the State to give us, with proper effort, the wisc and good government which all true men desire ? OCR excellent and highly complimentary neighbor, the Georgetown Times, is assured that thc omission to speak of thc interesting report ortho Whim-more meeting "as due enterprise." was, on our part, wholly accidental. THE Marion Star thh.ks it essential "that ' the citizens of Marion have a meeting at '.an early day, to nominate delegates to the "convention to be held in Columbia on the "13th of June next." There seems to be no need of hurry. The middle of May, or even the first Monday IQ jun0 wouW be car? An Inviting Field for Immigrants. Thc New York Tribune is still calling ?pon the overcrowded population of the Northern cities to form colonies and remove ;o the South and West. It says : "There "never before were so many acres inviting "immigrants, as there were never before so .many who might improve their prospects "by immigrating', as in this year 1870." Ehe Tribune truly says -it is thc work of .'twenty years to hew ti farm out of tho "primitive forest.*" This is what immigrants have to do in new and unsettled countries. Another groat difficulty ui such countries arises from the remoteness of mills, stores, smiths, ftc., "thc wretchedness of roads and "tho absence of bridges,'' ?fcc. These difficulties do not exist in South Carolina. There are numerous farms, with all necessary buildings on them, that can be purchased at low rates-farms that are within a convenient distance of mills, stores, ic. Thc Tribune seema to favor what it calls "emigrating colonies," that will fur? nish their own mills, stores, schools, brick? yards, ?fcc. ?fcc. We have uo manuer of ob? jection to this. It is all tho same to us whether immigrants come singly or in col? onies. Tor them it is, no doubt, better to come in the latter way so that they will, in tho very beginning, haven congenial society of their own. Titere are great botlies of ex? cellent land in this State which can lie pur? chased low by the aggregate capital of these colonizing companies. What wc want is to sell our surplus lands, and to thickly popu? late the State as rapidly a3 possible a with respectable, enterprising and industrious population. When we think of the prospective value of our agricultural and mineral lands, and of our manufacturing sitc3, ?fcc, now on the market, our only wonder is that Northern capitalists should permit them to remain on thc market an hour longer than is necessary to close a bargain. A few thousand dollars invested now will, in a few years, grow into a?rent fortune. TrtE Free Trader tells the story of a young and skilful London printer, who hear? ing of the high wages earned by his craft in the new world, made baste to change his base to New York, where $30 a week seemed a very agreeable substitute for one-third that sum in his native land. Ile, however, soon found the gain more apparent than real. Board and lodging, strange as it may seem, was nearly doublein price. A hat costing ?S in England, was SS in New York; a coat, valued at S7 in London, could not be got for less than 325 in New York; boots, S3 aud S t a pair in England, were $8 to $12 in Yan kecdom, and every necessary of life was in proportion. The English printer soon took himself back home, satisfied with the knowl? edge lie had gained as to the difference be? tween the old world and the new. The Free Trader pertinently asks: Is not this also the case of the American mechanic ? And wc may add that Protective tariffs are thc main cause why ?1 in EiigT?Mul will go as far S15 in the United States. Tan Protectionist, a journal pnblishcd in New York, announces in its number of Feb? ruary 25th, that it will bc issued weekly hereafter, instead of monthly as heretofore, "in order to counteract more effectually the "increasing dissemination of the pernicious "Free Trade doctrines of the Free Trade "press of the country, which includes within "its ranks most of the influential Journalists "of the United Mal's."
