Addrft?S RIORDAN, DAWSON A CO., No. 149 East Bay, Charleston, S. C. TUESDAY, JUNE 7, 1870. THE WEEKLY NETTS. WE have made arrangements to supply THE WEEKLY NEWS, together with that excellent jQgriculttiral publication, The Eural ?arohnian, ;at the low rate of THREE DOLLARS a year. :Send lu your orders NEWS OE THE DAT. -In New Tork yesterday gold was dull a?,| ? 14. : .... -Cotton closed heavy; sales 2100 bales. -At St. Louis a convention of colored cler? gymen is In session. -Ninety-six millions of dollars, it ls esti? mated, ls invested In newspaper property in North America. -Centralia has elected a colored man one of its aldermen-the first Instance ot the kind in minois. -Ono hundred women are now preparing themselves for admission to the bar in the United States. -The Russian Government Ls about to build a church In New York, where services will be conducted according to the Greek form ol wor? ship. ' -Judge Jesse Lamberth, of Rome, Ga., has ' --OiHclally united 2700 couples In his life, but re slstedtne temptation himself until a few days . ag? -It is said that within a circuit of one hun? dred and twenty-five miles around the White . Sulphur Springs of West Virginia, there is more Iron ore than in the whole of Great Britain. -The political campaign in Oregon has opened bitterly. The disaffected Republicans oppose the re-election of United States Sena? tor Williams, and the Democrats are concen? trating their strength upon Nesmith to elect him to succeed Williams. . -The 8iUc manufacturers of Paterson, N. J., are looking forward to the time when raw silk -can be obtained from California, and members of the leading silk firms have been sent to that State to acquaint themselves with the pros? pects of silk culture there. -The German immigration at New York now ls unprecedented, and leads that of any other nation. Three thousand arrived at Cas? tle Garden on Thursday; total from the first of | January to date, 35,000. The new comers within the past week have nearly all gone to S tho West. -A design for ar new two-cent revenue ?tamp has been approved by the commission? er,-by the operation of which persons living at remoto points, say from New York, may have their checks,drafts, Ac, printed at home, at their local printing offices, and the trouble saved of fixing adhesive stamps. -yThe Cuban war has had the effect of driv? ing a large number of business men to Key West, lrom various parts ot the island, and the manufacture of cigars there is on the increase. The customs receipts this year at that port will .exceed $60,000, while for the previous year t|hey were only $6000. -The accumulated evidence from all parts of Mexico reveals the condition of that coun? try as in every sense deplorable. Financially bankrupt, socially demoralized, and politically disrupted, there ls protection neither for prop? erty nor persons. Trial by jury is suspended, and special taxes are levied by mere govern? ors ol States. Brigandage ls a favorite occu? pation of dissatisfied citizens and defeated . politicians. Congress is without authority, ' . and the President without power. The New .Tork Tribune says it had hoped braver and -wiser things from this people alter the expul? sion of the French, and it reluctantly confesses to grave disappointment at witnessing this re? sult of Republican rule In that unfortunate country. There are those, however, who ex? pected nothing better than has followed from the destruction of about the only civilized gov? ernment-that of Maximilian-which has been set up in Mexico for many a long day. . -.'Kingcraft," the winner ot the Derby, is described as a bright bay colt, standisg rather under fifteen hands and three inches in height, and ls very handsome all over. He was bred by his present owner, Lord Fal. mouth, and made his d?but as a two-year old in the Triennial stakes at Ascot last June. The long odds of nine to two were laid on him, but he Buffered defeat by a head from Mahoaia. His next appearance was in the Chesterfield stakes, at'Newmarket, which he won easily by two lengths, and beating a large field. He then scored SLY. victories in succession. His * first appearance this year was in the two thou? sand guinea stakes, where he finished fourth, and his second in the Derby stakes. He is en? gaged in the Prince of Wales stakes at Ascot, ninety-two subscribers; the St. Leger stakes, at Doncaster, two hundred and thirty-four subscri 7 bers; the Doncaster stakes, at the same meet? ing, and several minor stakes at Newmarket. The Jockey who rode I" i has never belore had the winning mount in the Derby, although he ?as been very near on two occasions. Those were in 1865, when he rode Christmas Carol second to Gladiator, and in 1806, when Lord Lyon only, defeated Savernake, whom he was riding, by a short head. Lord Falmouth has never before succeeded in gaining the "Blue Ribbon of the Turf," his best win previous to this being the Oaks, in 1863, with Queen Bertha. -The Roumania massacre was a subject of | consideration last Friday in the Senate. Mr. Morton presented resolutions adopted by proin n?ntJewsot Indianapolis,, calling theatten ! tion. of Congress to this great tragedy, and asking Intervention by the President, to save the Jews of that Principality from further per? secution. The memorial went to ?Sr. Sumner's committee. Mr. Sumner brought forward a resolution asking the President to furnish any information in possession of the State Depart? ment in relation to that adair, which was at once agreed to. Mr. Sumner said that the in? terests of humanity demanded that the fullest information should be had by the Senate on this subject. From thc best information in his possession thc massacre was a most terri? ble affair, the whole enormity of which was not yet made public. Mr. Spraguc said the facts would show that the Jews of Roumania had possessed themselves of nearly all the land and of all the trade of that principality, while a vast population of Christians there were deprived ol the means of support, and that would be found lo be the cause of the re? cent outbreak. The circumstance, in his judgment, furnished food for profound reflec? tion, not only in regard to the condition of af-" fairs in Roumania, but also for application to affaire here in our country, where the tendency is rapid in the same direction. Mr. Stewart said he hoped Mr. Sprague did not mean to Imply that when a man gets rich he ought, therefore, to be killed. Mr. Sprague smiled faintly and made no reply. ''Can't be Beat." There are hundreds, aud perhaps thous? ands, of intelligent men in South Carolina who are so cowed, so dispirited, so despon? dent, as to believe that no opposition candi? date can beat Governor Scott, the forthcom? ing nominee of the Radical party. The State militia haunts their dreams, and in their wak? ing momenta they remember the fraud-invit? ing provisions of the election law. Sixteen shooters and statutes, in unholy combina? tion, are more than they can bear, and they come to the conclusion that a certain divini? ty does so hedge about "his Excellency, the "Governor," that any attempt to oust him from the high office he dishonors must end in disaster and defeat We are not disposed to underrate the strength of Governor Scott. The purse strings are his, the appointing power is his, the official position and influence are his. With him will cheerfully labor all those poli? tical Radicals who have something to be thankful for in the past, or something to look forward to in the future. Upon his success hangs the fortune of more aspirants than we should like to count. We admit all tliis, but we will not admit that Scott cannot be de? feated. And this for two reasons-first, un? less we have a possibility of defeating Scott, we have nota probability of electing a ma? jority of the Legislature; second, iee have not tried. ' As we have already endeavored to ex? plain, the abandonment of a contest upon the general ticket need not be expected to materially weaken thc Radical strength in the counties. The movement on the State ticket and the county ticket will be one and the same. If we win in the election for Gov? ernor we shall have, besides, the majority in the Legislature. Wo may elect a powerful minority in the General Assembly without defeating Scott, but that powerful minority, or majority, can only be gained as the result of tho organized work and energetic unity of action, which nothing but a general can? vass will secure. If each county be allowed to work after its own interests, without ad? vice as without help, the consequence will be, that the white voters will ?tay at home and the colored men will vote the Radical ticket. It may be the story of the Whittemore re-election with slight variations. And not to nominate a candidate for Governor against R. K. Scott is an abject confession of weak? ness, an avowal that the white people of South Carolina, working for all that they cherish and value, cannot change fifteen or twenty thousand votes. There was a wise-acre once-he may not have been a South Carolinian-who gravely declared that, until he could swim, he would never go into the water. This is the case with the opponents of a nomination. They have not tried to defeat Scott. They do not know that they cannot defeat him. All that they say is, that they will not make a contest unless they are sure of winning. We sub? mit that a certainty is barred in politics as well as In betting. There must be some hazard or there can be no struggle for thc mastery. Is this Scott a political Brolnlig uug'tan ? Even if he is, we eau serve him as the Lilliputians served the during Gulliver. We can make pluck and linesse take the place of brute strength. Looking at it quiet? ly, it is a shocking evidence of demoraliza? tion that any citizen or any journalist should be found to advocate a course whose main feature is the abandon ment of the key of our own position. How can the people be arous? ed from their apathy, without a contest? How can we enkindle the old ardor in the popular breast, if we have not a contest ? How can we win at all, if we have uot a con best? A faint heart never won an election, that is sure. And it seems that we have not reached that depth of gloom which inspires a people with desperation. We are only just low enough to be flat and dull, to wipe eyes and suck thumbs, to croon over departed splendors and say-Scott can't be beal. We have still faitli in this people. Give them a candidate, and they will do their part. They will work well if the Couventfon give them tho material. The public, no more than the Egyptians, can make bricks without straw. The June Convention holds in its hands the destiny of Hie State. Whatever it may do will be acquiesced in, and made the best of. Hut, unless we have a general cauvass, the heart of the Opposition to the Scott Ring will be cut out, South Carolina will slide nearer to Radicalism as the only organized party, aud the people themselves will, in large numbera, toss heads and lads, whether they shall join the domiuatit party before or after the elections. And all this in spite of the sporadic success which, iu some half a dozen counties, will crown the local ticket. Out with it: Ufr The Columbia Guardian makes the charge that Laud Commissioner Leslie, at the same time that he gave his signature iu blank for the purchase of thc Schley lauds, (these were bought for $30,000, but the State pays $120, 1)00,) signed also other applications-one of which has been lilied out to the amount of S143.000, and another for $78,000. Are the Columbia Radicals so utterly lost to all sense of shame that they will make no honest effort to iuvestigate these transac? tions ? Let us know tho truth; however bad the truth may be. "Constitutional Liberty.' The Augusta Constitutionalist has no ob? jection "to the people of South Carolina, or "the Democratic party of that State, organ "izing upon n platform giving to all races "?nd colors perfect equality, if they choose," but urges upon all true friends of "Consti "tutioual Liberty" in thi3 State "not to "adopt such a course, because of the so called constitutional amendments." If we know anything of the temper of this people, they acknowledge the civil and political equality of all the citizens of Hie State, be? cause that civil and political equality is the law of thc State and the United States, and because, upon no other basis, can they in? vite, and obtain, the co-operation of the col? ored voters in an effort to obtain that good governmen ' which is a supreme necessity to every decent man in South Carolina. This i3 believed to be the wisest policy that the State can adopt, and neither Mr. Jeffer? son, nor the Virginia and Kentucky resolu? tions, will prevent the people from making the Fall canvass upon the platform of Hones? ty and Equal Eights. * Thc City Debt. The letters of a Charleston lawyer, print? ed, in condensed form, in our issue of yes? terday, set forth, with sufficient fullness, the arguments relied upon to sustain the propo? sition that the larger portion of the city debt was illegally contracted. This view of the matter has found its earnest supporters, and we have given it full publicity in order that a free and frank discussion may enable the public to fully understand the aspect of the entire question. There <s undoubtedly much to be said on the aide of the honesty of the debt, and the legality of the whole issue, and we hold ourselves ready to give a prompt publicity to such articles, or rejoinders, as may take up this phase of a highly impor? tant subject. Whlttemore Winces. The infamous Whittetnore publishes in the Darlington Southerner a long-winded reply to the letters of a correspondent of the New York Sun showing up the facts of his career. The cadetsblp broker might have spared himself his trouble. The country has form? ed its opinion of him-an opinion that could not be changed even if his "constituents" went on re-electing him from now till dooms? day. _ THE Missionar;/ Record, in its issue of Saturday, says: "Wo have declared that "many things which the Citizens' party de "mund for the State are absolutely neces? sary for the future prosperity of the people; "we agree with them to-day, and shall still "demand them in Hie uamc of tho poor men "of this State." But the next minute it spoils all this prettiness by eulogizing and defending one R. K. Scott Current Literature. L THE NORTH BRITISH REVIEW. April. 1870. American Edition.
