Gazette is a paper or -Southern proclivities, all except one column, which. supports Grant. ".-The'?ew York papers say the spring suits fer ladles tnerc. are ornamented with everything, "fvorn Jacoo's ladder to a pen-wiper, In silk." -The Avondale minc at which, on September 6,1869, the breakers burned and 110 men and boys smothered, has just gone Into operation again. -Baron Salomon Rothschild, a mere lad, has been appointed Italian Consul-General at Vienna, as aa inducement to the RothschUds to invest more boldly In Italian stock. -A colored preacher, W. F. Butler, ls demand? ing equal school rights in New York. He preach? ed & sermon Sunday on.thc abolition of distinc? tive colored schools, and lu favor of black and white children being educated together. -The mother of Montaicmbcrt, who was a Miss Forbes, of Bombay, bad been prevailed upon by thc Duchess oi Augoulcme to become a Roman Cath- * olic, but arter a few years she returned with re? newed attachment to the Church cf England, In which she was bormand nurtured. . -Rev. O. B. Frothingham preached this in New York last Sunday: "The laws of matrimony should be so remodelled that thc husband and wife could nat be jealous of one another-so that the bonds should not be merely a legal one, but that a con? dition of marriage should be a permission to each j to act as^he ur she thought proper, and at the dic? tates of the feelings and affections.? "-The New York Herald, or Monday, In its re? view of the stock market for last week, says: "SautMern securities were active for the Tennes - sees which advanced to 57, but closed heav/ nt a decline ol i;? per cent, rrom tnis-nguio.- TU? South Carolinas were strong and ia demand,' and the Alabamas rather active at higher quotations. Otherwise the Southern list was steady and dull.'' -Captain Ericsson, who has invented so many other things, hos invented a torpedo that renders lt impossible to construct any vessel which lt can " *ot bIow"up and destroy. The New York Times calls anon Congress to legislate with reference to this face, and not. foolishly to expend money la constructing vessels which can be of no service. "The upshot of this new invention will be that no nation need fear on Its own shores, the maritime power of a rival." . . -La New York, on Sunday, Mr. Beecher spoke tin night scenes In New York and Brooklyn/and indulged la a choleo variety of eccentric com meut$. He condemned midnight labor, late par? ties, late sappers, Saratoga, after-dark walks or young men and maidens, Ac He made the point that "good broad streets, well laid out, kept clean And well lighted, win have more moral Influence than all the churches and ail the preaching put together." -A New York letter or Sunday says: "The Fe alan Conjrress: adjourned yest erda)'. General O'Neil wa're-elected, president, and it is under? stood that a war policy was determined upon. Nothing positive, however, is known or the pro? ceedings. The Executive Council elected by the Chicago Fenian Congress has issued an address announcing the removal of the c jcral office to Philadelphia, protesting against their treatment tn New York, and promising aotlve military ope? rations.'' -In the McFarland trial on Monday. last, John Orr, assistant warden at the city prison, testified that the prisoner could ' not sleep, and was accus- ? tomed ro;(*re?d In his ceU at nighL Reuben A. ? Yance, the out-door physician or Bellevue Hospi? tal,; testified that he officially examined the pri jspner'i condition, and round congestion of the 1 .'brain developed; the witness testified that he be- 1 Uevcd tho prisoner absolutely insane when he i fired the .pistol at Richardson. Mr. Graham, at j this point, stood up and said that some city pa? pers had reproduced an ai tide from some West? ern paper which stated that he (Graham) had 1 - gone to the district attorney and disavowed his oonduct in the trial with regard to Mrs. Calhoun, j He wished to state that neither to the district at- ? torney.nor to any other human being did he make . auch a statement. The district attorney corrobo? rated Mr. Graham's statement. -The Hartford Courant has lately detailed a re? porter to observe the degree of politeness which i prevails in the street cars of that city. The re. , port was as follows: "A car star? off down the i street, having within ten ladies on one side, sit -ting closely, yet comfortably, together, and ten men on tho opposite side. Presently one lady ' gets out; the other nine unconsciou?ly rise a trifle, i shake their skirts, and the seat ls fuU again. ] Farther on another lady departs; tue eight rc H?lsing go through the same process of rising, ind in a twinkling the seat ls still fuU.-' A short ' ride beyond, another lady steps out, leaving < seven only, who, by the 3ame sor: of spreading, j tm the seat again oompteteiy. Now enters a lady! ! Oa tho ladles' side there are three persons less than when the car started, yet not one of thc 1 ?even remaining moves. Aud so one of the men ( on tho opposite side gives his seat to thc new- I ?omer, and stands during the rest of the jour- j ney." We are happy to be able to state that such ? scenes are never witnessed in our street cars. Certainly nor. ' -''.Spectator," HK Washington correspondent ' . or the New York SS?, who ls a olose observer or < naen and things at the National Capitol, says the ( ?avy wUl bo sharply overhauled for the extrava- ? gancc and corruption which are so conspicuous J An its administration, when the appropriation bill 1 sets before the House of Representatives He 1 thinks that notwithstanding the estimates have been cat down one-half, there ts still gVeat room for economy aa? reduction. The Med?- I ierraneaa squadron is characterized as no? thing more than a grand yachting ex- * pedition at the expense, of the American 1 people, without utility af any kind, ana 0nly c kept up for the convenience of pet admirals a au t JUawning officers. He complains that now, in I time of peace when there ls not a ripple on the ( surface of our foreign relations, splendid squad- i row are sent abroad to loiter In the pleasant ports of Italy, with a flag ship for the favored ad - 1 ?lrat, which alone cost this overtaxed country t nore ?bau $2000 ? day. . The loc?me tax, alio, loes not escape Ila notice, ror he asserts with auch truth, that there appears to be a Axed pur K>se to hold on to taxation In every Corm without ?gara to consequences ia order to carry out the mrrow policy of a few small miuds, by which Uw nterest of capital is to be enriched at the expense >r all others, and the whole burden or tIve war laddled upon the shoulders or those who sacri lced blood and treasure to make it successful. 3e has come to the conclusion that.j?though thc pressure is strong against the tax from all paris jr thc country, thc committees in Congress arc indisposed to yield the point, and will only sur? render by compromise. TUe Catastrophe in Rickir.oi:<l. Since tho burning of the Richmond Thea? tre, many years ago, the capital of the Old Dominion, in time3 of peace, has known no such tragedy as that whicli yesterday brought mourning and desolation to an hundred happy homes. No wisdom, no foresight, could have guarded against this catastrophe, and it is worthy of remark that many of the victims, whose names are re? ported in our dispatches, were engaged at the time of the accident tn the discharge of the duties of their office. These men fell in the path of duty, as truly as though their lives had been offered up a bloody sacrifice to thc stern God of V.'ar. In moments of ~"!at grief, words are as nothing; but it m-y lighten the weight of some auguished breast to know that the blow which wounds the motherly heart of tho Old Dominion, excites the liveliest sym? pathy in the thoughts of all our people. So many ties of descent and friendliness unite this State to Virginia, that a dolour which bows the lofty head of the "Mother of "States," cannot fail to arouse in the mind of everj' South Caroliniau the warmest feelings of sorrow and regret. The Situation. The famous work of Machiavel, entitled "The Prince," derives its valne, not so much from what it teaches as from what it Implies. It represents the policy of the Italian princes. It reveals the spirit of the age in which it originated, and unlocks many a dark and otherwise imprisoned secret of history, We can measure statesmen justly, when we have in hand the principles and rules, which they accepted as the maxims of slateotnanship. Some of these days the Radicals of the republic must submit to a similar ordeal. The axioms of recent American diplomacy will be recorded, and beside the ancient scroll which shows how nobles once destroyed the liberties of the people, will be laid the tear stained and blood-stained volume which explains how beggars destroyed the life of States. If treason is a revolt agaiust organized government, what other band of conspira? tors against public right has ever equalled in disloyal aims and achievements the lead? ers of the Radical party ? The right of a State held np before a Radical maddens him a3 never bull was maddened by the red flag fl.au.utod .in & &i>iuiiak amphitheatre. At whatever hazard, it must go down. The fundamental principle of the republi? can form of government which Congress is constitutionally bound to guarantee to the States, is, beyond all question, the right of the people te rule through representatives of their own appointment. Under the new regime, that right is loudly vindicated in theory and shamelessly denied in practice. Into almost every gubernatorial chair of the Southern States, into almost every position of importance, whether in regard to profit or influence, it has set an alien or a time? serving renegade. We are weary of naming the strangers who ure crowned with the hon? ors, and fat with thc substance, of onr h?mili ated and Outraged States. It is necessary for onr prosperity that the population of these States s h ou M live to? gether in harmony. And there are none who utter more frequently than the Radicals G?nerai Grant's campaign bulletin: "Let us "have peace." Such is the profession; but the rule of practice requires a different maxim-something like this: "Divide and "conquer;" or like this : "Create adesolation "and cail it peace?" Dissensions and feuds are the appliances of Radicalism. It is con? stantly creating and provoking outrages. It is interfering with the quiet and salutary processes of industry upon every Southern aero. It is boastingly nrming one class of the community against another, and supplies the departing bayonets of the Union with the Winchester riile3 of the militia and the mob. So that to-day Georgia pleads for thc poor privilege- of having gentlemen, instead of Bullock and Blodgett, as her military despots. Finally, it is necessary to the welfare of a people that those who hold office should be accountable to their constituency. Without some restraint upon the ruler, what liberty or safety remains to the ruled ? But under the present system, the ruler intrigues with? out shame, plunders without check, aud in avery emergency bribes with his plunder. The State is overspread by oath-bound leagues, who blindly follow tho call of cor? rupt political leaders, and who sustain party, right or wrong. The scales of leviathan arc tiuked together. Now it is against evils of this soi-t-por? tentous and terrible-that wc strive to array )ur forces. A just representation, pnblic )eace, political integrity-those are aiui3 vorthy of the highest enthusiasm and' the uost earnest effort. We wish to secure for ntrselves and our posterity that republican orm of government which Radicalism does iot and will not guarantee. We fain would ja ve the State, and in this great and difficult mdertakiag wo cordially invito all good cit zens to unite with U3. There are two ex .rcmeswe need to guard against: a want )f heart on the one hand, a want of pru- 1 lenee on the other-the despair which folds 1 ts hands, the impatience which grasps after ' he fruit before it is ripe. J THE Columbia Guardian says that Major )eLaney (colored) has beeen appointed in pector of agriculture by Governor Scott, : md will travel over the State to encourage j igricultural development. Major DeLaney, vho is ahighly intelligent man, may bc a J viend of diversified industries, and can 8 loubtwa work Politics and Farming in dou- t )le harness. Unfortunately, however, Honest \ .abor and Radical p0!jcy do not puU well ogether. X UKI ?^very Saturday." -- ? p The most resplendent of all the monthlies s the "Monthly rart" of Every Saturday. [t is a picture gallery and a librar}' in .tself, containing the first five chapters of Dickens's new novel, beside the elegant pic? torial supplements which have attracted so aiuch attention in the Weekly.. The publish >r3 announce that a prominent feature of Every Saturday hereafter will be the introduction of a superior class of illustra? tions by the most eminent American artists. A series of pictorial supplements will be given immediately, forming a Booth gallery, representing Mr. Edwin Booth in his leading characters-Othello, Iago, Shylock, Biche lieu, ?fcc. The fir3t, Hamlet, accompanies the April part; also a companion picture of Mr. Fechter as Hamlet. These superb pic? tures are drawn from life by TV. J. F>nnes3y, and engraved by TV. J. Linton, A second series of pictorial supplements will be given shortly, forming a Dickens gallery, repre? senting notable characters and scenes in Dickens's novels, such as Sairey Gamp and Betsy Frig, Captain Cuttle, Mr. Micawber, A-e. These will be drawn by S. Eytinge, Jr., who has proved himself superior, perhaps, to all other artists who have attempted to illustrate Dickens. A comparison of the number for April with that for January shows a marked improvement in the artistic char? acter of Every Saturday, from the begin? ning. The later illustrations are of a more varied interest, and are presented in more satisfactory style. Published by Fields & Osgood, at S5 a year. _ _ _ . THIS Major DeLaney seem9 to be a highly sensible colored man. In a speecli at Colum? bia, on Thursday, he said : "Keep your "Kn-Kluxes away from me, and I am willing "to strike hands with you in maintaining a "free, honest and pure government in South "Carolina." He also said that no black man should oppose the removal of political disa? bilities from every white man upon whom any such disabilities now re3t. If all the colored people would think and talk in thi3 way. we should soon have an able and up? right State government. .financial. rjWO THOUSAND DOLLARS TO LOAN on ?rood security. Apply to J. N.
