He complimented Philadel? phia on its abolition record, and ?aid that but Tor the Press he should never have occupied his pre? sent position. -It has leaked out that thc real reason why thc members or thc nottse were so anxious to rescind thebr resolutions to admit thc newly enfranchised darkles to thc ball ror a jollification over tho ratl ?cation of the Fifteenth amendment, was that -seats in the gallery, occupied by thc negroes were covered with vermin, and it was thought best not to try the experiment down stairs. -The emigration from Ireland to the United States, by way or Cork, is reported to be very ac? tive this spring, and, it ls asserted, will bc as large ns in the remine year. In thc first week of April at least sixteen hundred emigrants, of thc agricultural class, embarked on the four steamers whioh called at Cork. The coercion act has given an impetus to the movement westward. -A prominent Radical senator, who usually votes with Hie ultra wing, declared thc other day that he would like very much to soe the old Southern senators back again; first, because he did not like the carpet-baggers; and secondly, be? cause the Southern senators, whatever their .errors or shortcomings, could never be bought, and their moral influence was always a steady .bulwark against the designs or thc corrnptlouists. -Kidd's buried treasure ls reported to have been round again, this time on Staten Island.

Thc General looked worn and feeble, but expressed himself us pleased wuh his journey, and stated that he reit much better since leaving Savannah. The balmy air or Florida was evidently having a good effect. -The Mayor or Fernandina, Captain N. S.

He was removed ta the residence near the mi l, and, lingering some four or Ave hours, de::;h ended tils agonies. -A Washington telegram says: '-The usual !?.. dlum or tho senatorial debates on the Georgia lull wn? somewhat relieved to-day. by a very radic.il *V""C.i of Senator Morton, or Indiana, the tenor cr whioh wi:s that Georgia not alono needed rc construction, but that the condition of affairs in the South generally was such as to warrant Con? gress taking hold of most of the other States with a strong hand. Ho favored giving thc President power to send troops to any sect.ou of the south to suppress disorder and preserve thc peace, without waiting for the Governor or the Legislature to call, according to the present procedure tn force, on the Executive for a military power to suppress insurrection. It is prettj tfell understood that this extra? ordinary speech reflects thc views of thc Presi? dent, who has within a few days declared that 'the rebels had deceived him,' and that he.should not carry out his recently expressed intention of sendinc a special message to Congress icconi mending general amnesty. At thc same time, however, the President ls represented by his friends to bc opposed to delaying further thc ad? mission or Georgia, but is anxious that thc work of reconstruction should bc closed up. Ile is willing to keep the disfranchised on probation, hut opposed to keeping whole States out any tonger.', A C ronk from Columbia. That highly rcspectablo journal, thc Co? lumbia Phonix, which "accepted the decla "ration of tho Press Conference, as due to "eur recognition of accomplished facts," now pronounces the CITIZEN'S' PARTY move? ment "a grand mistake," ami announces that thc opposition to Radicalism should bc organized "upon the basis of a vital and pro? gressive Democracy." These, opinions arc expounded in an article as long as it is doleful, the bini of ill-omen croaking out, at last, a harrowing prediction that "politically, the "State must be Radical ior several years to "come," and declaring, as well, that "the "best politics-thc most reliable politics "for the State and the South is, the amplest "material development and thc largest flow "of immigrants." How the steed shall live while the grass is growing, the Phoenix docs not condescend to say. Rs whole policy is to wait! wait! wait !-to give up thc ghost, without a strug? gle fer existence; to engage in no contest, for fear of meeting defeat; to fold the arms, and bend the knee, until three-fourths of the white people in the State are recognized Radicals; to utter no word of remonstrance, until South Carolina, like a squeezed orange, is cast aside as unworthy of longer care ; to bc 1 idle until labor is useless, and to labor then with the ill-directed energy of despair. A . policy so pusillanimous ami so frightfully : injurious, must be, and will be, promptly re? pudiated by the peoplo of the State. We, at least, arc not ready to admit that South Carolina is hopelessly Radical. We dare not admit it; for that would be to re? nounce all hope of saving thc State from bankruptcy and tho people from ruin. But wc do say, emphatically, that no Democratic party can succeed in this State cither t!-:is year or the next; ami what may become of De? mocracy three years hence matters little now. The debates in Congress upon the Georgia bill, and the withdrawal by the j President of his amnesty message, are enough to show what is the temper of the ruling party, and they justify the belief that, if a Democratic organization did carry the State, the election would, by hook or by crook, be made of no effect. No govern? ment actively hostile to the Republican party will bc allowed to exist in a Southern State, so Ion;r us the Radicals have a preponder? ance in Congress. This obvious truth we must face and make thc best of. And we do face it, and do make the best of it, wheu vc a. xcxitlc U.-?I?. anil Klippert the ffratld CITI? ZENS' REFORM movement, which promises to extend from South Carolina to most of her sister States. The CITIZENS' FARTT-if Party that can be called, which is composed of all. and akiti to none-is not actively opposed to the administration of General Grant-its whole aim is, not to defeat Republicanism, but to elect honest and able men to office. It is not a party of race, for it includes the blacks and the whites. To the colored peo? ple it guarantees all the rights which Radi? calism accords them; and to every citizen white or black-it assures an houcst and able government, under which trade may flourish, capital be protected, and every arti? san and laborer enjoy steady and profitable work. But the respectable Phonix, which is some? what given to Damn with faint praise, Assent with civil leer, believes, nevertheless, that a Democratic platform would give tho State "Democratic "representatives from twelve, thirteen, four "teen or fifteen counties." This might be some temptation, if wc did not know that neither twelve, nor six, nor three counties ave willing, whatever their strength, to make a Democratic contest, and take the chances that thc election will be made void, as was virtually done in the case of thc last Congres? sional elections. On thc other hand, every county of which thc Phonix spcak3 can be carriol, and will bc can ?ed, by the CITIZENS* REFORM PARTY. Democracy and Do-Nothinglsm in South Carolina, at this time, mean disaster and defeat, and si the people understand it. What the people want is, RETRENCHMENT and REFORM; and where the choice is be? tween a good government and a bad one, between failure and success, they do not care a fig for Democracy or the Democratic party. They intend to win, and they know full well that if they cannot win nuder the balmers of the CITIZENS' REKOKM PARTY they cannot win at ?til. The Phonix says that the most reliable politics is-immigration and material im? provement. We do want immigration; but Immigrants cannot be brought herc in num? bers in a day or in a year. Wc want mate? rial improvement; but this is out of thc rjuestiCrii, unless we have pure and abie men lo control our public affairs. Our contemporary may be so prosperous that it can afford lo wait! and wait! and wait ! but this is not the case with the masses of the people. The whole argument lio3 in a nutshell. Inoncy'eur the present govern? ment has increased the Slate debt-direct and contingent-from six million to FOUR? TEEN MILLION dollars. This is tho whole eise in half a dozen words. And it con? vinces the people, although it may not .con? vince thc Pho;nix, that ?in immediate change of rulers is absolutely necessary-a chango which is called for, not by Republicans, not by DcLiocrats, but by Democrats and Re? publicans-a change which can only be had hy uuitiug all honest men, irrespective of "lass, color or national politics, upon the broad, liberal, Anti-Radical and Auti DemrxtraUc platform of the CITIZENS' RE roiui PABTY - In thc great, ^nmo of politics a blunder is ! worse than ;i cr.me, und it is a grii-v.,us blun? der for any journal to seek to dampen ll e ardor of the public spirit, and cast a doubt upon the success of a grand popular uprising against Corruption, Extravagance and Fraud. The utterances of thc Phoenix cause the enemies of good government an undisguised joy, and encourage thc coterie of croakers, which is found in ever}' community. And when the tight is made and thc victory is won, the ominous predictions of faint-hearted jour? nalists will not 2:0 unforgotten. The Citizens' Reform Parly. Thc Unionviilo Times thinks that tho tenn ''Citizens' Pally'' is indefinite and non? committal, and suirg03t3 that the new or? ganization be called tho "Reform Party." It seems to us that thc name Crms.vs' RB KoiiM PARTY is the strongest and simplest that can be chosen. This name signifies a union of thc CITIZENS of thc State for the purpose of REFORM, which is neither more nor less than thc exact truth. THE Lancaster Ledger is informed that O'Connell, "Representative from York, and "who is charged as being captain of the ?' 'Forty Thieves' in our last L?gislature," has received the appointment of land commis? sioner of Lancaster County. His appoint? ment, according to the Ledger, creates con? siderable dissatisfaction among thc colored people, and some of the leaders in the Radi? cal party there threaten to dissolve their connection with the party if tho appoint? ment is not revoked and a Lancaster man put iu the office. THE SUMTER News says: "Wc arc dis "tinctly opposed to thc resolutions o? the "Press Conference, and to the convention pro? posed to be held under such auspices." This is plain enough, and we cheerfully strike the Sumter News from the list of independent journalists who are working disinterestedly for the good of the State. Perhaps our Sumter contemporary, when the time comes, will refuse to take thc benefit of the better government and lower taxation which the CITIZENS' REFORM PARTY expects to seenro for the people. This would bo "stick :'ingto the path of principle." Nura |3nblicntions. M R. J. C. DERBY Takes great pleasure in announcing that Hie Messrs.

We beg leave respectfully to call thc attention" pf the public to our Superior Flavoring Extracts. As ten y rs have now elapsed since we first In? troduced them lo the notice or the American pub? lic, we deem lc unnecessary at present to enter Into a lengthy description or their merits, Ac. There is hardly a elty or town of any note in the country Into which they have no; found their way. The' reason of this widespread popularity and daily Increasing demand ls owing eutirely to their peculiar excellence and iutrlnsic worth. Ilelng determined to make them the Standard Ex? tracts or HM day, we have still runtier improved their qua' . v, aud now we firmly and honestly be? lieve that nicy stand without a rival. Our Van illa Extract canuot bc surpassed for richness and delicacy of davor. It is a strictly pure and high? ly concentrated Extract or Vanilla Beans. In short, we think lt the best that ls made, at least, this is the decision of the bast Judges In the coun? try. We don't pretend to compete tn price with many of the so-called Flavoring Extracts of the day. which are really but worthless compounds, undeserving of thc name. For quality and style, we defy competition.
