Wa have made, arrangements to supply THE WEEKLY NEW9, together with that excellent agrff^tural publication, The Rural Carolinian, at the low rate of THREE DOLLARS a year. .Send in your orders FEWS OF THE HAY. -At Liverpool there was no business. -Gold yesterday, at New York, closed at 13|. -The "New York cotton market closed dull ?** and heavy at 22c. for middlings; sales 1000 bales. -The Rothschilds are said to have lately lost -enormous sums of money. _It ls reported that two members of the Cuban Junta, In New York, are in tho employ of Spanish spies. -It ls thought that one'hundred Ohio fami? lies will migrate to Middle, Tennessee, in the fall. -The largest shoes made lor women in the Philadelphia market go to Utah; the smallest are sent to Havana. -A German chemist has found a test so delicate that one part of arsenic in one mil? lion parts pf solution may be detected. -Mr. Motley, our Minister at London, insists on being addressed as "Your Excellency," in public as weU as private. -Paul de Cassaguac announces that he must refuse challenges from all except ac? knowledged good swordsmen. He can't bother with any more amateurs. -Generals Kirby Smith and Bushrod John? son have leased the Nashville, Tenn., Unlver sity building, where they propose to establish a military academy. -The Empress of Austria was recently shot through the hand In attempting to take a loaded pistol from her son. . The young gentle? man ls twelve years old. -Rather alarming reports are made by the health officers at New York of the prevalence - of yellow fever at H?ytlen and Cuban ports, and also at Rio de Janeiro. -Now is the time for country boarding houses and hotel keepers to advertise, as thou? sands of families aro looking about for pleasant quarters for the summer. -The new French ministry have had anoth? er decided success in the Corps L?gislatif. The Deputies Of the Left declined voting on the question.: -Mrs. Gladstone, wife of the Prime Minis? ter, attended a tea meeting of three hundred ancT fifty poor mothers in London, and ex? pressed her deep sympathy with the poverty and* suffering prevailing In the East End. -The Bostonians are lessening the drudge? ry ol cooking, by indulging largely in corn fish as an article of daily food. It is a new prepa? ration they are patronizing, and ls called BpecificaUy "patent dry corned fish." -The burglar of the coming period is to dis? pense with the rude jimmy and vociferous gunpowder, and to melt safe locks quietly and chemically bf means of the oxy hydrogen blow? pipe. Thus does science dally multiply its benefits to mankind. -Quite a number of persons were on Satur? day, in Paris, indicted by the Chamber of Ac? cusation of the High Court of Justice for varions offences. The larger number for con? spiracy against the safety of State and the lifo of the Emperor. -it ls reported that an alliance has been formed between Russia and Egypt; arms and war material have been ordered by the latter, and it is nearly certain that a war with Tur? key: Is imminent The Paris Bourse has been excited in consequence. -James Smith, a pedestrian, who has been boasting of his superiority to Weston, tried lo walk one hundred miles in New York on Sat? urday in less time than Weston, was obliged to give up on the fifty-sixth mile, having made fifty-five miles in twelve hours and thirty eight minutes. -Anew movement, it is said, will perhaps be made in Wishlngton- to reconstruct Ten? nessee again. Prominent gentlemen of the Bepubllcan party of that State do not like the present state of affairs, and want Congress to declare the present Legislature an unconstitu? tional body. -The story of the terrible massacre of Jews in Boumania, has now an appearance of being almost absolutely without a foundation. The first accounts of it In Europe came from the United States. A trifling riot in a small vil? lage, in Moldavia, is the only apparent cause for the report. -The steamer George B. Upton, which sail? ed from New York a short time ago with men and^numtionj of war for the Cuban service, disembarked them et Punta Brava, where au attack was made upon them by the Spanish force. Ten of the men, it ts reported, were killed and the remainder dispersed. All or a larger portlou of the supplies seems te have been captured. -The steamers for Europe Irom New York on Saturday took an aggregate of about a thou? sand passengers, families chiefly who are go? ing to spend tue summer on the continent. The emigration, however, is as nothing to the I immigration. The arrivals at New York have been at the ratio of 2000 per day-14,000 a week-an i thu cable advises that the depart? ures from Liverpool even now are at the rate of 80,000 weekly. -The New York papers tell us that the no torious James Fisk, Jr., is about to create a new sensation. In a few days he will turn out with a new six-in-hand, and this six-in-hand is expected to be tho most costly of tlie sort that ever put In an appearance on the drives. For nearly a month Waldron-who has made heral? dry a life-long study-has been engaged in de? signing and manufacturing the mountings fur the harness which the animals belonging to the six-iu-hand'are to wear. The bit-basses which are to be fastened to the sides of the bits are of heavy plated gold, each bearing the monogram "'J. F., Jr." The bits are of nick? el plate. The martingales, which are gold plate, are very heavy, and each of them carries a centre shield, on which thc monogram again appears. The gag-drops are gold; so are the brow-bands and the coupling-rings. Below eacli of the rings a shield will dangle, and on this shield the Fisk monogram will again ap? pear. The twelve rosettes to be worn by thc horses will be of gold, each illustrated by tlie Fish monogram. The hooks, tents, hames and buckles are all gold, as are also the drops, face-pieces and pads. The hames will cost $3000, the mountings $1000, while the whole equipage, including horses and carriage, will cost $35,000. Dver one hundred and forty monograms will appear on the harness. Tlie mountings for this splendid turnout are the finest ever made in this country. Waiting for a Bolt. When the Scott conventions have made their nominations, the defeated candidates for o/lice will, no doubt, grumble and growl with tremendous energy; but there are good rearons for assuming that there will not be an important "bolt," and that any repentant Scottites who may secede, after going into the convention, will carry with them, when they cross the threshold, little influence and less positive power. The Radical party of South Carolina, in all its huge dimensions, is directed and con? trolled by a mere handful of cunning politi? cians. These men are the Party. They monopolize the power and the profit, and re? quire their unfortunate supporters to live upon the crumbs which fall from the execu? tive or legislative table. When we fairly get to work, we can Bplit off the live branches from the rotting trunk; we can show the colored people that the generosity, or chari? ty, of their favorite leaders begins, and ends, at home. But until the forces of the Oppo? sition are in the field, the colored voters will be overawed and bullied in tlie usual way, 'for, however they may feel aggrieved, they have not the experience, or the indepen? dence, demanded of those politicians who would upraise thc standard of revolt. From the masses of the colored voters, then, we need not expect any help until we show that we have the skill and the courage necessary to their guidance and protection. They are a timid people, and will not cut loose from the Scott party until they have another party td tie to. It is useless, therefore, to postpone the nomination of the Opposition candidate for Governor, in the hope that we may be able to join hands, after the Radical Convention, with a hotly of/dis satisfied Scottites. Nor do we see any reason for hoping that any prominent Radical, allied to the Ring, will bolt from the convention and accept the support of the Reform parly. Any men who may forsake the Scott clique, even at Hie eleventh hour, will be welcomed into the ranks of Reform. But for a leader, we re? quire one who has been with us from the be? ginning, not one whose tardy adhesion to our cause is prompted by spleen or disap? pointed ambition. Think of it! The peo? ple organize a movement for the redemption and regeneration of the Slate ; that move? ment has the sympathy and support of all honest men ; that movement is un iudignant protest against extravagance and wrong. How could we take as its leader, its chieftu in, its head, a poor time-server who is kicked out of the Radical Convention, and whose only distinction is that of an ignominious de? feat This, it seems to us, is not -.he way of organizing victory. The prominent officials of the Radical party will not secedorwhatever may be the action of their convention. Many of them do not go before the people for election un? til 1S72. The rest think themselves sure of re-election if they stick together. They have no inducement to bolt, and least of all have they any temptation to abaudon thc party of ignorance and corruption for thc party of honesty and sense. Now '">ey are Tritons among minnows. Why should they leave the troubled waters for tho placid streams of tranquillity and peace ? Upon the first of August the field of our choice will be no wider than it is this day. The people may then, as now, select a Re? form champion whose only claim upon our support is his mulluscous insipidity and his personal need of that public purity, whose gospel he is expected to preach. Or tho people may, a3 now, nominate a vigorous, hearty, thorough-going candidate, who will enter the lists in earnest and never sheathe his glaive until the field be won. Thc differ? ence between the two courses-an imme? diate nomination and a postponed nomina? tion-is Time. A loss of sue or eight pre? cious weeks is ALL THAT WE DAKE HOPE TO G AW BY PUTTING OFF THE DOMINATION'. We trust that tlie Convention will sedulously and constantly bear this broad fact iu miud. ->.,-..* About School Booka. The University Publishing Company, to whose series of text books we referred in a recent issue, was organized about a year ago with a capital of $200,000, divided into shares of $100 each. Of this sum upwards of $150,000 have been paid in, so that its lin uncial condition is sound and healthy, and no fears need be entertained that the books now published will disappear from the book market. Mr. C. B. Richardson, cf New York City, a kinsman of the distinguished Virgin? ian, Lieutenant Maury, i3 president of thc company; General John B. Gordon, of Atlan? ta, Ga., is its vice-president The text books issued by the press of the University Company have, almost without exception, been prepared by professors in the Universi? ty of Virginia, while the two Drs. LeC?nte are still engaged in writing work3 on chem? istry, physics and geology. The series con? sists of geographical text books by Lieuten? ant Maury. We have especially examined the second book, entitled "The. World we Live In," and we do not hesitate to pro? nounce it most excellently adapted for inter? mediate instruction in geography. It MS written in a style peculiarly attractive to children of 12 to 13 years, contains a large amount of interesting and sometimes amus? ing information, and makes constant refer ence, both ia the text and by map questions, to the maps which it contains. The mathe? matical works are from the pen of Professor Venable, formerly of the South Carolina Col? lege, now of the University of Virginia. His Elementary Algebra and bis two arithmetic books arc equal in clearness, precision and method to those of Davies. Text books of ;oometry, a nigher algebra, ?fcc, are in course of preparation. The series of Eng? lish Southern readers has been edited by Professor Holmes, who occupies the chair of ! history and general literature in the Univer? sity of Virginia. The "Fifth Reader," the only one of the series which we have had an opportunity of examining, 13 very judi I ciously arranged, coutain3 tasteful and well-selected extracts from American (chief? ly Southern) and English writers, and has the definitions of the more diillcult words t which occur in the text, at the foot of each > lesson. We are glad to learn that tit is ex? cellent reader'has already, to a considerable extent, been introduced into our schools. Professor Holmes has also published an English grammar, aud promises a manual of English composition. Professor Scheie de Vere, of Virginia, a gentleman distinguished for his profound and extensive knowledge of, modem languages, has prepared the French series. We have examined his "Grammar "in French," and consider it an excellent hand-book for more advanced scholars, but confess that we think it would be better suit? ed for the use of schools if it contained a larger amount of exercises, both French English for illustration and English-French for the practice of the rule3 given in the text. Our townsman, Mr. Sachtleben, has prepared for the same series a guide to French pronunciation, which may prove a useful auxiliary to teachers and scholars, who have little or no opportunity of con? versing with Frenchmen. Professor Gilder sleeve, a graduate of Charleston College, and of the University of G?ttingen, and for many years professor of Greek literature in the University of Virginia, has undertaken the task of preparing the Latin series (to bc followed hy a Greek series.) We have care? fully examined his syntax of the Latin lan? guage, and think very highly of it, both as regards the plan of arrangement, the doc? trinal part and Ute abundant illustrations by means of quotations from classical au? thors. It is a book excellently adapted for the Cicero and Virgil class, and for higher classes. Its usefulness in schools will, how? ever, be materially increased by an addi? tion of English-Latin exercises, which the professor in*oniise3 in his preface. In conclusion, wc take Hie liberty to urge ufon our teachers to examine the books contained in the University series, and to adopt, if not the whole series, at least those which tiley find suitable to their purposes. Thc University Publishing Company is es? sentially a Southern enterprise, though, for obvious reason, located at the North. Thc gentlemen who have prepared thc books are our fellow-citizens in the narrower sense of the word; motives of friendship and pa? triotism should, ns far as wo can, induce us to prove our appreciation of their labors by availing ourselves of them in ours. Scathing. Read the withering denunciation of Whit temorc and the Scott Ring, which we repub? lish to-day, from that honest and able Radi? cal paper, the Philadelphia Evening Tele? graph. Verily, when leading Republican presses speak out in this style, we may fairly hope that the redemption of South Carolina from the rule of the robbers is at hand. Cost ano i:onno.
