The gilt was made up private? ly and by subscr.ptlon. The entire sum reach? ed $15,000. -The Washington correspondence ot the Pittsburg Chronicle explains Mrs. Lincoln's financial embarrassment by saying that she went largely In debt, without her husband's knowledge, during their residence In Wash? ington. -Among the donations to the French army relief fund are the following: Widow of Charles Heine 40,000 francs; widow Furtado 15,000 francs; Baroness Salomon de Rothschild 6000 francs; Baroness Gustave de Rothschild. .5000 francs; IL Ad. Yell Picard, of Besancon, 5000 franca. -On Friday. $100,000 of Richmond City (Va.) eight per cent, bonds were sold at $92 50. The bonds are coupon, payable In thirty-four jears, and were all taken hy two gentlemen of Richmond. The bonds are issued for ti>e purpose of erecting buildings for the public schools. -It ls believed in high official circles at Washington that General Trocha will, If an opportunity offers, pronounce In favor of making the Count de Paris (one of the Or? leans princes) King of the French. This be? lief ls based upon private information receiv? ed from Paris. -When the Pope received che reply from the King of Prussia to the mediatory letter the Father had addressed to him, there was great excitement in Roman diplomatic circles. Pius IX, usually very frank and outspoken, was at first quite reserved. He raised his hands and exclaimed, "Salus nostra ex ininti eis nostris P' Just now the Prussians are In high favor at Rome. -The Prussian booksellers are said to have a map of Germany on sale with the latest "unifications." The new map sweeps in Al? sace, Lorraine and Franche Comte. Also through thc Tirol down to Trieste include Ger? man Austria It Is uncertain whether the Russian provinces on the Baltic are included; they are of the same color as the rest of Prus? sia. -Ia Germany as the terrific losses of the battles came to be known, to which may be added the losses hy sickness and straggling, a general gloom ls beginning to diffuse itself among the population. In the City of Berlin, the seat of the court and nobility, there is even enthusiasm; but even there the enormous slaughter of officers, who are almost all mem? bers of noble houses, ls beginning to tell. The impatience to close the war on any terms is becoming general. -The Pope has completed his arrangements for retiring from Rome upon the arrival of the Italian army of occupation. He will go to his summer palace at Castel Gandolfo. This village ls about fourteen miles southeas' of Rome, and ls picturesquely situated on a vol? canic peak 431 feet above a beautiful lake. The Bpot ls one of the loveliest in Italy. The latest dispatches show that the question wheth- 1 er the King of Italy or the Pope shall be the civil ruler of the people In the present Papal territory ls to be determined by an election the Italian troops meantime having possession' -.and the purpose ls professed of protecting the Pope in his ecclesiastic rights. -Washington, D. C., according to the re? turns of the assistant marshals engaged in taking the census, has a population of 114,195 souls, against 61,122 In 1860-making an in? crease or 86 per cent, in ten years. The In? crease during tiie preceding ten years was 03 per cent. New Orleans, Louisiana, according to the returns of the United States marshals" has a population or 184,688, against 173,782 lu 1860--riving an increase or 10,906. This in? cludes that part ol New Orleans formerly known as Jefferson City, now the Sixth Dis? trict, where the population is now 10 8C0 against 5107 in 1860-givlng au increase of 5753; The returns from Algiers, not yet rc ceived, will, it is stated, raise the population ol New Orleans and vicinity to $192,000. -The Duke of Saxe-Coburg wrote to his duchess: "What fatigues during three days ! (16th-18th.) Two battles I was on horseback for thirty hours without a chance of getting a morsel of bread, or a drop of water or wine to wet my lips. Not one of us had any resources but those he carried about him. Yesterday evening I got my drst spoonful of soup. We were so worn out that sleep was an Impossi? bility. The noise was frightful. I fear a re? newal of these terrible days. God preserve us P The Insufficiency of the help for the wounded was confirmed by another letter from the Duke of Saxe-Melnlngen. The misery and suffering are beyond all conception. All the localities are crammed with the wounded; no surgeons-no bandages. If such was the suffering of princes, what must have been the misery of the soldiery. -New York is soon to have another orna? ment in a new anti immense hotel, which will be built on Twenty-seventh street, stretching from 3roadway to Fifth avenue. It will be built in the Mansard style, so much In vogue, will cost $700,000, aud will be eight stories high. Itwillbe built of Nova Scotia stone. This hotel will be divided Into suites of living apartments, each Including kitchen, dining room, parlor and several bed-rooms. Access to the upper floors will be had by an elevator At the main door there will be a parlor where visitors can be received. The edifice will be a reproduction, with obvious Improvements, of the Paris system of living in "flats." Mr. Pa? ran Stevens, well known In hotel circles, is projector of the new enterprise. The rent ol the different suites of rooms will pay from $1500 to $2500 a year; so it will be readily seen that the new "apartment hotel" is by no means intended for any but those who are pretty well off. _ To the Public. That the Charleston public, in the3e stir? ring times, may have prompt access to the latest telegrams, we shall continue to issue, at half-past two o'clock every afternoon, an extra edition of THE NEWS, containing all the telegraphic dispatches, both domestic and foreign, usually published ia au evening paper. THE NEWS EXTRA will be 3old to news? boys at one cent a copy. Single copies, at THE NEWS office, two cents. The New York Times on South Carolina Finance?. The New York Times is a paper to which the public have been accustomed to look for candor and fair dealing, whether the mat? ter in discussion affected the North or the South, a Republican or a Democrat. How much of this enviable reputation was due to the studied journalistic impartiality of the late Mr. Raymond, we do not pretend to say; but, unless it adheres more closely to the truth tn discussing the finances of New York than it does in lauding the finan? cial administration of the Scott Ring in South Carolina, the Times must soon lose its ancient credit, and become as notorious for misstatement and misrepresentation as it once was for conscientious care. There is leas danger, of course, iu printing untruths about South Carolina than in circulating falsehoods concerning the great States of the North. This State is to many thousands a terra incognita, a land of rattlesnakes, palmettoes and midnight assassins, but hap? pily there are in New York capitalists enough who, dabbling occasionally in South Caroli? na securities, are reasonably well-informed as to the condition of the State finances and the character of its government. These, at least, will detect tue glaring and wilful er? rors made by tho Tones. We call them wil? ful errors, because the official statements of the Scott government show them to be whol- i ly untrue, and because it is hardly oredible that the Times has not been furnished with 1 a copy of the last report of the State Comp- 1 troller General. The financial agent of South Carolina, Mr. H. H. Kimpton, has : been praised to the skies by the Times, and J that cherubic individual has not neglected ( to send his sponsor all the official papers | which might serve as a basis for new puffing i and fresh laudation. We assume, then, that : the Times has in its possession the official < reports of Governor Scott and his subordi- ' nates, and by these very reports-not by any campaign papers of the Union Reform par- 1 ty-we can prove that th? assertions of the ! Times, relating to the State debt, are with? out foundation in fact. This is what the , Times says : "In tts eagerness to blacken the rscord of 1 Republican administration in South Carolina, the World rather oversteps the boundaries ol facts. It spoke, yesterday, of the 'monstrous spoliation which has raised the debt' of the State to $14,000,000, and alleged that this is the only visible financial result of reconstruction. Now, the debt of South Carolina ls not four? teen millions-it ls less than hall that amount, and there has been no Increase since the war. Moreover, South Carolina, under Governor Scott, was the first State in the Union which resumed the payment of coin Interest on its obligations-a fact that well exemplifies the recklessness of our contemporary's unfriendly statements. The credit of the State is not an issue in the canvass now?olngon. Thai ls confessedly satisfactory. It has beea reserved for a Democratic Journal In New York to try to damage what the South Carolinians, irrespec? tive ol party, are anxious to uphold." The main statement in this extraordinary paragraph is, that "the debt of South Caro "lhia is not fourteen millions-it i3 less (han "half that amount, and THERE HAS BEEN NO "INCREASE SINCE THE WAR." Reversing the order of these statements, we answer: 1. The State debt on the 1st of October, 1SCS, according to the official report of Gov? ernor Scott's Comptroller-General, wa3 S5, 407.30G 27. The State debt on the 1st of October, 1809, was (see Comptroller-Gene- 1 ral's report, pages 87 and 33,) do less than $9,367,793 GS, made up as follows: Funded debt.$6,133,340 17 Fire Loan bonds, past due. 434,444 51 1 In hands of financial agent, and for sale to pay floating debt, &c. 2,700,000 00 Total.$9,367,793 GS : Debt October 1, 136$. 5,407.306 27 Increase.$3,960,437 41 Since Issued for Land Commis? sion. 700,000 00 LVCREASE IN ONE TEAR.$4,660,457 41 This, we take it, is a sufficient rebuttal of : the statement that the debt of South Caroli- j na is "less thau" $7,000,000, and that "there ! "has been uo increase since the war." 2. The Times says that the debt of South j Carolina "?3 not fourteen millions." We an? swer that, to make up the total debt of the j State, the $i,000,000 of bonds of the Blue : Ridge Railroad, guaranteed by the State, 1 int, i>n?xviiriO x VJ must be added to the $10,067,793 68, al? ready shown. The State ia secured by a first mortgage; butjtbe road is worthless until completed, and it cannot be completed for les3 than $9,000,000. This caused Gov? ernor Scott to say, in his annual message, (page $,) that "the whole investment (of '$4,000,000) must remain as dead capita?' until the road i3 finished. Governor Scott, in the same message, told the Legislature that unless they provided the means for completing the road, they should "repeal the "act of September, 1368, whereby four mil? lion more of bonds, guarantcedbythe State, '.WOuld be SUNK AND MADE WORTHLESS." The Legislature did not provide the addi? tional mea?s; nor did it repeal the act of September, 1868. We contend, therefore, that the $4,000,000 of bond3 guaranteed by the State are, to all intents and purposes, a part of the debt of the State. Adding thi3, the to?al debt is: By Comptrollers statement.$9,367,793 Second appropriation to Land Com? mission. 700,000 Blue Ridge bonds. 4,000,OOO TOTAL DEDT.$14,067,793 Thi3 disproves the assertion of the Times that the debt i3 not $14,000,000. 3. The Times says, further: "The credit "of the State rs NOT AN ISSUE in the canvass "now going on. That ia confessedly satis? factory." Far from this, being tho truth, we say emphatically that the basis and founda? tion of the opposition to the Scott Ring ia a deep-seated dissatisfaction with the financial condition of the State. It is no party con? test. Men of ul! colors and all parties have bunded themselves together to secure ac honest administration. They have 3een debt and taxation more than doubled in two years, and the expenses of the. government swollen to huge proportions. This brought them to? gether, and holds them together. All de? cent South Carolinians, "irrespective of par "ty," denounce the financial corruption of the Scott Ring, and upon this great issue the battle is fought. The Reform party is not fighting for the triumph or the discom? fiture of any political doctrine; all that it strives to obtain is an honest, able and econ? omical administration of the public affairs of the State. Thia fact i3 set forth in the Re? form platform, and is explained in every speech made during the canvass. We have now shown the incorrectness of the broad assertions of the Times, and we are anxious to see whether there is any Re? publican journal in New York independent enough to print this vindication of South Carolina from the aspersions of the decadent Times. Wa n teri -A Fashion Queen. One ot the curious questions to which the events of the last fortnight have given rise is as to who is to lead the fashions in the future. There seems to be no one among all the royal families of Europe to take the place of Eugenie in this regard, the ladies at the head of the courts of England and Ger? many having all too domestic tastes. It is said, however, for the comfort of the bereav? ed world, that our fashions really came from Berlin before, only we did not know it, the Prussian capital furnishing the originals of all the designs which Pari3 ostentatiously ratified and adopted. Thc Campaign. -There was a "big" Radical pow-wow at Fairfield a few days ago. Not more than two hundred and fifty persons were present. -The Columbia Phamix learns that the anti Radical ticket lor Town Council of Spartan burg wa3 easily elected. One ot the most pro? minent citizens of Spartanburg informs the Pkamix that the defection of Messrs. Wlnsmlth, C. C. Turner and Javant Bryant lias had the effect of making the people still more deter? mined to dispose of Radicalism at the next election. The anti-Radical or Reform candi? dates will be elected by a large majority. -The Columbia Phonix says: "The report having been spread in the vicinity of Pomaria, Newberry County, S. C., by the Radicals, that the Reform movement was inimical to the col? ed people, and that the conservative victory In North Carolina had resulted in putting them back in quasi slavery, two colored men, one a Leaguer and the other a Reformer, were In juced to visit Raleigh. N. C., to see foi them? selves, and bring back their reports. They went, and, we are Informed by our Pomaria correspondent, have returned, fully satisfied of the base falsehoods that had been told them, rhey returned delighted with their treatment. At Raleigh, they saw Mr. Turner, and were lib? erally supplied with copies of the Conservative Committee's address to the people of North Carolina. At Charlotte, the colored delegates heard ex-Governor Vance speak, and were much pleased. It ls thought that good must result from the visit of these colored men. The Idea ot sending them was sensible and practi? cal." Uernouals. MESSRS. W. C. COURTNEY <fc CO. nave removed their Onice to No. 3 Central Wharf. sepl0-6 Sat Sale.

More tn an twenty years have elanda since Messrs. Scribner & C<\ did a general service, by publish? ing in this country the original work bearing thl9 title. Its merits os an Invaluable contribution to the literature of the New Testament, have been atCfsted by the unqualified commendation which it has received through the long lapse of years, and from the accumulating approval of Protest? ant Ciirlstenili>m. Originally costly, Messrs. Scribner, in order to pl?ce Its benefits within the reach oral!, have, tn a commendable spirit, put forth a new edition, complete and unmutllated, and now furnish the same at the low price of $3. Their enterprise deserves appreciation, and we ccngratulate ali classes upon the opportunity now afforded of obtaining a Biblical classic npon such favorable terms. It is due to the publishers to observe that they have been stimulated to this ef? fort by the appearance of two abridged and oth ? erwise incomplete editions of the "Life and Epis? tles." In evidence thereof, they state that they have dissected other editions, and find in the first one hundred pages examined, omission! covering from one to twenty-six Unes lu fifty pages. Sixteen pages, they allege, are wholly omitted. Forty-six engravings appear in "Scrib? ner's edition," they affirm, not to be found else? where. Seventeen maps and eighty-two engrav? ings embellish "Scribner's edition," and enhance its value and usefulness. The Revised Edition or CHAMBERS'S ENCY?
