Agents from Europe are now in Cuba and in this country working to secure the acceptance of this plan by the Cubans "and their l?aders. The object of this combination, it is further said, is to put a check to the Increasing power of the United States, holding a permanent in? fluence of European government in America.

Ten Yean Ago. The Scott Ring are very fond of looking back. They denounce the old government of South Carolina as foolishly extravagant and miserably incompetent, and expect the people to believe, upon their mere assertion, that the present administration is a blessing to all classes and an advantage to the whole State. The public is so thoroughly disgust? ed with Radical falsehood and Radical mis? representation that these broad misstate? ments may be safely left to work t their own cure; but it may be as well, for the benefit or all those Republicans who have something to lose by public waste, to show what were the expenditures of the State Government in 1859-60, as compared with the expenditures in 1868-69. In this there is no specious ar? gument or special pleading. The basis of the comparison is the official statement of the officers of the State, and-it will task even the financial ingenuity of the Ring to ex? plain away the hard fact that the total cost of tbe State Government was SI, 103,372 in 1368-69, against $549,251 in 1859-60. Go? ing down into the separate charges in each of the. two years, it is seen at a glance where the Radical Ring has violated its pledges and betrayed its every trust. -1859-60. 1868-69.

With all their hue and cry about education, the Ring spend $39,023 on free schools, where the old gov? ernment spent $86,885. Ten years ago the salaries of all the State officers amounted to j $90,000. Now they are $137,000. Ten years ago the expenses of the legislative session were $16,828. Now they are $181,839. Ten years ago it cost $12,682 to take the census. Now it costs $48,324 Ten years ago the contingent accounts were $50,185. Now they are $114,730. Tra YEARS AGO THE STATE DEBT WAS FOUR MILLION- DOLLARS. Two YEARS AGO rr WAS (exclusive of the war debt) six MILLION DOLLARS. AND KOW rr is NEARLY FIFTEEN MILLION DOLLARS. li these fearful figures will not make all honest men of the State work lustily for the success of the Union Reform movement, they are dead to their own interest and blind to the welfare of the State. Ic would seem, indeed, that only they who hope to gain nore by a league with the Ring than they lose by high taxes and unjust laws, can fail to recognize the imperative need of that economical and honest government which it is the object of the Reform movement to secure. . _ v_ Hard Facts. The Hon. David A. Wells has retired from the service as Special Commissioner of Rev gone, that office having expired by the limi? tation of the law which created it, and Mr. Boutwell is doubtless congratulating himself an having succeeded in removing one whose strong facts and sound principles have al? ways bothered the empty theories of the Sec? retary. Upon this subject, the Boston Post forcibly remarks that, in contrast with the financial follies of the self-sufficient Bout well who compassed his removal, and the weakness of thje President who permitted it, Mr. Wells's services gain special admiration, lt is he to whom we owe whatever of order there is in our system of taxation and finance, and whatever reforms have been made in that department since thc war are referable to the same source. Hi3 reports have been the most valuable documents pro? duced under this Administration, and it is their very independence, truth and strength which have brought about his remova.'. They showed the folly of Mr. Boutweirs ob? stinately ignorant course, and demonstrated the wickedness of the designs ct the clique of monopolists in Congress. Mr. Wells's lost report hos furnished Congress enough wisdom to last for a year or two, when per? haps another crisis may force him again to the front; but, meantime, Governor Hoff? man has shown an appreciation of the value of his services, by securing him as one of the commission to revise the tax aud assess? ment system of New York. TUE County Commissioners of EdgeDeld state that their estimated expenses for 1869 were $25,295, and for 1870 were $37,000, and that their total payments for the two pears are $62,744. The State tax in Edge field County for 1869 was $61,048, so that the State and County tax for that year amounted to over $86,000. Edgefield reels tie imperative aeed o' a re^ucjUon of taxa ton. The Letter or General Kershaw. The burning words of General Kershaw, in the letter addressed to the' editor of the Banner of the South, will touch to the quick the gallant soldiers who, on many a hard contested field, fought and bled by his 'side. The veterans of his regiment, of his brigade, of his division, who followed him through the long campaigns of the Army of Northern Virginia, these have not suspected him of deserting principle for the greed of office. And the people of his own State know full well that General Kershaw is now, as when he xwre the Coofederate gray, as true a sol? dier as ever drew the sword, and as honor? able a gentleman as ever raised a voice in the cause of a suffering -people. Here in South Carolina, the most extreme of extreme men have never dreamed of impugning the motives which led General Kershaw, with characteristic fearlessness, to avow his conviction that ' the changes wrought in the Na? tional and State Constitutions, as a result of the war, are accomplished facts, having the force aud obligation of law. Than General Kershaw no South Carolinian is more honor? ed and trusted, and his people will not cher? ish him the less because a rhetorical jour? nalist has utterly misunderstood the gene? rous motives of a Christian gentleman, who, as the only hope of saving South Carolina from degradation and ruin, has aided in up? raising the spotless banner of Union and Reform. And we doubt not that there are in Georgia, as in every Southern State, men enough to vindicate the name of Kershaw from aspersion, whether they do, or do not, agree with him in those political views which have our own most hearty concurrence, and will receive, we firmly believe, the binding sanction of the people of the State. The letter of General Kershaw is lofty in tone and irreproachable in manner. As a clear and logical statement of plain and ob-v vious facts, it i3 worthy of the occasion. As an indignant protest against unmorited re* proach, it is worthy of the man. Commander Edward Barrett, TJ. S. N. In his kind and considerate treatment of the unfortunate Southern families who have just returned on his ship from Brazil, the Commauder of the United States steamer Quinnebaug has clone honor to himself and the service. Nor is this the first time that 1 the people of Charleston have had occasion to recognize the humane and generous con? duct of this officer. Those who were here in 1865, just after the close of hostilities, will not soon forget that while the volunteer sol? diery under Hatch were plundering the de? fenceless families in our community almost without check or hindrance, and when any attempt to obtain redress was pretty sure to be regarded as prima facie evidence of dis? loyalty, and made the pretext of fresh exac? tions, Commander' Barrett was conspicuous among a few unselfish officers of the regular service who,were untiring in their personal exertions for the repression of outrage and wrong. Many a poor widow, who had been despoiled of ber household goods by some straggling gang of marauders in blue, has cause to remember with gratitude the prompt and vigorous interposition of Commauder Barrett, resulting in the return of her prop? erty, if not the punishment of the offenders. Aud when the monitor which he command? ed was ordered elsewhere, the citizens of Charleston felt that in one of the bravest de? fenders of a flag so lately hostile, they had lost a friend indeed. The Shelby and South Carolina Rall . road. The Chester Rej-ortermakes a hearty ap? peal in favor of the Shelby and South Caro? lina Railroad, which is to run, on an airline, from Yorkville to Morganton. Colonel Plato Durham, the president of thc com? pany, says that the enttre distance is about 68 miles, und the cost of construction is es? timated at $1,500,000. This road will cross the Richmond and Atlantic Railroad at some point between YorkvUla and King's Moun? tain ; it will cross tho Wilmington, Charlotte and Rutherford Road at Shelby; and at Mor ganton it will connect with the North Caro? lina Western Extension Railroad, extending from Salisbury through Asheville to the Ten? nessee line. Tennessee has nearly complet? ed the road to the State line; between Ashe? ville nnd the Tennessee line, a distance or 45 miles, the work is in prosecution; between Asheville and Morganton, the laying of the track is delayed only by the difficulty of one tunnel through the mountains, on which a large number of hands are employed, and which will doubtless be completed in a few months. There remains, therefore, only tho link between Yorkville and Morganton to fill np to make an almost direct line from the seaboard of South Carolina to the rich grain regions of East Tennesse. In order to make a beginning, the King's Mountain Railroad has endorsed the bonds of the new company to the amount of $100, 000, and with the proceeds derived from the sale of these bonds, it is expected that within two months work will begin at York? ville. The Reporter adds that as things now stand, Chester is a prey to the discriminat? ing policy of the Charlotte Road in favor of Charlotte. Only a few days ago a lot of lime was received at the depot, the freight on which from Charleston to Columbia, on that much abused road, the South Carolina Rail? road, was S5 90, and from Columbia to Ches? ter, on the C. C. and A. Railroad, was $11. This is twice the money for oue half the dis? tance. A CANDIDATE for School Commissioner of I Oconee County announces that if elected he will give S75, out of his salary, to each town? ship, "to assist somewhat in the difusi?n of lli7ilelli(;ence." This laudable object can, we submit, be better secured by subscribing "seventy-five dollars" to TUE DAILY NEWS, nt six dollars a year, or THE WEEKLY NEWS, at 75 cents for the campaign, or four months. These are the best and cheapest diffusers of intellligence within the reuch of the people. Memorials. REMOVED.-MES. C.

As ten years have now elapsed sm ce we flrst In? troduced them to the notice of the American pub? lic, we deem lt unnecessary at present to enter into a lengthy description of their merits, Ac There is hardly a etty or town of any note in the. country Into which they have not found their* way. .The reason of this widespread popularity and daily increasing demand Ls owing entirely to" their peculiar excellence and Intrinsic worth. Being determined to make them the Standard Ex? tracts or the day, we have still further Improved their quality, and now we firmly and honestly be? lieve that they stand without a rival.

In short, we think lt the best that is made, at leasU this is the decision or the best Judges in the coun? try.
