Important aid has been derived -from contributions raised in Lon? don, Parla and the United States. -General B, F. Ch eat ham waa dined by officers bis old division la Memphis, on Friday evening. In responding to the toast in his honor, General Cheetham said thay aU knew he could not make a speech-that the longest speech he ever made waa when toe disheartening news of the last days j of tho Goofed stacy reached them In camp one night tn North Carolina; tnat then tire boys all gathered amad bim to ten them what to do; some wanted to fight lt oat still, others to go to Mexico, Ac He told them te go home, obey the laws and make good citizens, and then he saw their heads drop as if BU hope was gone, and one by one they quietly went to their quarters. -May day Isa "movltg spectacle" in New Torkv A correspondent writes that "on this blissful morning old f?rnltare and new; cooking .torea, stew pan?, china bowls and wooden plat? ters, ola boots sad shoes, novels, pamphlets and periodicals; Uttered garments, shawls, hats, caps, wigs and leather aprons; metals and ma? hogany of aU sorts and descriptions; baskets of eats, cages of parrots, aquariums and cribs for children, basins and washstands, andirons, bro? ke? looking glasses, wicker baskets, children's perambulators, dressing cases and boxes, tum? bled ont of one- door luto another-aU heaped and mingled together la most frightful confusion, meet the bewildered vision at every corner." -One Susy the, the pastor of a Presbyterian Church in New York, excited the ire of the Pres? bytery by treating some newspaper reporters to gin Cnd milk; and the scandal having brought much discredit on the church, they resolved to sift the charges. The trial came off Tuesday. The - erring pastor pleaded guilty both to the drinking - of the gin and milk and to the association with the reporters, bet alleged in his defence that his . conduct was prompted solely by medicinal reasons. The ecclesiastical court conjd not, how -ever, justify their teacher In taking the beverage a question for bia kidneys' sake, on Sunday and la a innfol restaurant. Smythe spoke in his own defence, eltlag the laborious nature of his work, and the rebuke which Christ gave his disciples In I < the corn-field ea the Sabbath day after they had j, plucked the ears or corn, and considered that he fr as justified ander the circumstances. Had he tjonflned himself to gtn pure and simple. Instead I ' of imbibing so annatural a compound as gm and | < mux, he would probably have met with some lit? tle sympathy. As it was, he received a "rebuke" from the deacons, and was solemnly warned. -Dona Platt says U was a great day for Ameri? ca when Zack. Chandler assailed the British lion bi the Seaate. "The brave, the valorous old senator smote Ute Boa on the enont untu he quailed. Be shook him by the mane untu hu old bones rattled. He twisted his talle until the vue beast howled with anguish. AU the while the American bald-headed eagle soared and screamed, and screamed and soared, holding aloa forked lightning and the star-spangled ban Ber. It was a proud day for America, and vene? rable senators, wita bald heads and ill-fitting gar? ments, snorted defiance while writing letters and reading newspapers. The [conciliatory smile passed for once from -the face ot the vice-Presi? dent. He sat like Mars, and his majestic brows corrugated, resembled a vulcanized roof in a thunder storm. Electric streams of loyal patriot? ism-that ls not State's right patriotism-flashed and quivered along the galleries, while fear set? tled like an old hen In the diplomatic gallery, where Mr. Thornton's first attache, and two old ladles or German origin, trembled and shook until their shawls fell off." .?cat Loose!' "TH* CHARLESTON NEWS has at length cut loose from the Democratic party." [Sumter News. If our Sumter namesake will be good enough to inform U3 at what time THE CHARLESTON- NEWS was tied fast to the skirts of the Democratic party, or any other party, we shall be very much obliged to it for the information. This newspaper has boen, is, and always will be, an independent and not a party journal. Its policy is-whatever it believes will promote the good of the whole people of South Carolina. lu the mainte? nance of that policy, and with no other mo? tive, it gave an honest and hearty support to the Democratic party ia the national cam? paign of 1868. But, holding tho conviction that thc practical effect of keeping up a Democratic organization in our fall elections of State and county officers, would inevi? tably be to deliver over South Carolina, bound hand and foot, for au indefinito time, to the mercies of the plunderer Scott, THE NEWS is for a prompt and cordial union of all good mea, black and white, Republicans and Democrats, to secure What everybody admits ls so much needed in our State affairs -H?raerr, RETRENCHMENT and REPORH. J The FIrat Congressional District. Captain T. C. Dunn, who has been an? nounced as an independent candidate to represent the First District in Congress, ad? dressed the citizens of Horry County, in the courthouse, on last Monday. The Horry News says that the speech was well delivered and bad a marked effect on the audience, and it predicts that "Horry "will give Captain Dunn the largest and "most united vote that she has ever polled." Captain Dunn will address the voters of the .First District as follows: Georgetown, Thursday, May 5; Indiantowo, Friday, May j 6; Kings tree, Saturday, May 7; Manning, Monday, May 9; Sumter, Wednesday, May I II; Marion, Thursday, May 12; Florence, Friday, May 13; Darlington, Saturday, May 14; Society Hill, Monday, May 16; Bennetts- ] ville, Tuesday, May 17; Cheraw, Wedaes- j day, May 18; Chesterfield, Thursday, May j 19; Laacaster, Saturday, May 21; Pleasant Hill, Monday, May 23; Camden, Thursday, May 24. ' I The Anderson Intelligencer and the June Convention. The Anderson Intelligencer takes thia view of the political situation : I "lt must be conceded that a movement of this character, to secure an affiliation between Dem?crata and Republicans lu an effort to j bring about reform lu the administration of public affairs, must necessarily be controlled and urged forward by conservative members I ; of the Republican party. We think there Isl no hazard In affirming that lt ls out of the I question to expect the election o? any Demo-1 erat to All the Executive chair for the next I. term. The nominee of the June Convention, j with the remotest chance of success, most j < come from the ranks of tho Republican party, j and must procure the votes of every Democrat I < in the State, hi order to Insure a triumph over I j the disciplined forces of the extreme Radicals. ? Such being the case, we are led to inquire as . to the Individual likely to place himself In the nanda of a party organized lu this way. Is there a prominent Republican yet connected 1 with the movement ? We confess that there is no indication to that effect Unless we hare an available candidate, who can unite the en-1 ; tire Democratic vote, and at the same time secure more than 15,000 voters heretofore I ' aligned with the Radical party, deteat ls cer- < tain and Inevitable. These are plain facts that j i it will not do to Ignore in our calculations." We agree with the Intelligencer that the I nominee of the June Convention, if intended to wio, will not be a Democrat; but the se? lection of the man must, of course, be left to the Convention, which will, we firmly be- 1 lieve, be able to find a candidate who can beat Scott by ten thousand votos. The In? telligencer, however, thinks it unwise to run an Opposition candidate; and if thia be the opinion of the Convention, we shall submit as gracefully as we may. But in order that the whole State may meet in council for the common good, in order that the plan of action or inaction may be the policy of South Carolina, and not of one or two districts, we sincerely hope that every county will be represented by its chosen citizens Tho Convention will certainly be held; for at this early day one-third of the counties of the State havo given notice of meetings for the election of delegates. And we submit to the Intelligencer that Anderson should I not be silent when so many of her sister counties raise their voices in favor of united action for securing Retrenchment and Be? fore!. The Convention is a sovereign body and is tied to no line of policy, and tho ar? guments of the Intelligencer will we are sore, be carefully and calmly discussed, If J they are laid before the body as the delibe? rate opinion of the people of Anderson. The Orangeburg News. Mr. Browning has withdrawr>from the^i torial management of the Orangeburg Netos, ol which Mr. 0*H. Hall is now the publisher and sole proprietor. The Neu? is a bold and a vigorous paper, and will continue, we doubt not, to' strike telling blows ia the j good cause of Retrenchment and Reform.. The June Convention. The Orangeburg Newt urgea the people of Orangeburg to begin at once their pre para ions for precinct meetings to be held on the ' 21st, to select delegates to the County Re- ] brm Convention which assembles on sales- - Jay in June. . A CORRESPONDENT of the Orangeburg New, writing about the County Reform Con? ventions, says : "There need be no resolu " tions or platforms laid down by these pri mary meetings, but the object of the porty ? " of Retrenchment and Reform be fully and "fairly stated to Republicans as well o3 De- - "mocrats, and their co-operation asked in j "redeeming the State from the misrule and "extravagance Into which she baa fallen." 1 Thc Georgetown Railroad. The Georgetown Times says that there is "BO truth whatever" in the announcement made by the Sumter News that the "George "town and Charlotte Railroad project has "been abandoned for want of sufficient sup "port from the people of Georgetown." The Times says that the prospects of building the road are "better and surer" than they ever have been before, and the road eau bo built "without 'he aid of thc "town subscription." 0 AN advertisement appears iu tho Knox? ville Whig for 2000 hands to work ou thc Blue Ridge Railroad-GOD for tunnel work and 1400 for grading.

'IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT. GREAT REDUCTION IN PRICES. QUALITY STILL FURTHER IMPROVED. We beg leave respectfully to call the attention of the public to our Superior Flavoring Extracts. 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 prevent to enter into a lengthy description of their merits, Ac. There IB hardly a etty or town or any note In the country into which they have not found then* way. The reason of this widespread popularity and dally Increasing demand ls owing entirely to their peculiar excellence and Intrinsic worth. Being determined to make them thc Standard Ex? tracts of the day, we have still further improved their quality, and now we firmly and hones?y be? lieve that they stand without a rival. Our Vanilla Extract cannot be surpassed for richness and delicacy of flavor. It ls a strictly puro and high? ly concentrated Extract or Tanina Beans. In short, we think it the best that ls made, at least, this ls the decision of the best Judges in the coun? try. We don't pretend to compete in price with many or the so-called Flavoring Extracts of the day. which are really but worthless oorr.pounds, undeserving or the name. ?? For quality and style, we defy competition. DAVIS A MILLER'S PURE YEAST* POWDER.
