The Times says that the impression she made cannot be exaggera? ted-that her voice ls "wonderful"-that lt possesses a "velvety breadth," (how is that for high?) '-a luxurious abundance never before matched." The Tribune declares her voice "without a flaw," "perfect'in purity," "scaling empyrean heights," &c. The Herald thinks that in cultivation and distinctness she surpas? ses Jenny Lind, and the world affirms that she has a note and a half more compass than either Lind or Tltlen3. And one and all are enthu? siastic about her "fair, sweet face," her "charming smile," her "lustrous eyes," and '.her light golden hair, which is the glory of the Northern women." Nillsson ls to be a suc? cess, that is settled. -The overturnings In France have made queer work, socially and politically, with indi? viduals. Leon Gambetta, who now makes and unmakes prefects and mayors, and rules . the whole hierarchy depending on the home office, ls the son of a dealer in hardware in the south of France, and was unknown to the public until the day, less than two years ago, -when he pleaded the cause of those students .-arrested for the Baudin demonstration. Less xhau three* years since he was unable to attend ihe political parties of one ofthe republican fe? male celebrities because he could not procure a dress coat and white tie. Princess Mathilde la an example of the reverses of fortune. She is a prisoner, guarded by a company of Mo? biles, and scandal-loving Journalists have in? vented the story that she was '.aught attempt? ing to smuggle away paintings from the Louvre. _A writer in the London News says that Moltke is a mystery to the French. His name appears in no proclamation-where he is, no one knows; all they learn ls that kings and princes obey his directions, and that the countless soldiers of the German armies are marching and counter-marching, dying, fight? ing and conquering, and he commands them. This silent man has all the mysterious attri? butes of fate. He ls Invested with a power almost supernatural. To the mind of a Frenchman the commander of an army Is a gorgeous being: surrounded by a brilliant btaiL-he will show himself to his troops, and be ever Issuing to them his high-sounding proclamations. Napoleon's plain coat was the ally of his genius; but a Napoleon who is never seen; who never, when lie had succeeded in his manoeuvres, congratulates either himself or his soldiers; who sends his orders through a telegraphic wire, Instead of an aid-de-camp; who carries on war without Its '-pomp, pride and circumstance,'^ something utterly beyond the grasp of the Gallic mind. The existence of this German military sage terrifies them as that of a magician, who seems to have the unseen world at his command, and terrifies savages. Union Reform Mass Meetings. We are requested by the Executive Com? mittee ol the Union Reform party to give no? tice that Reform Mass Meetings will be held at every Courthouse in the State on the first Monday in October. Prominent speakers have been invited to address these meetings, and are expected to be present. The name3 of the speakers at the different Courthouses will be published shortly. The Executive Committees of counties are requested to make 3uch other arrangements as may be necessary. Tbc Euc tic n Law of 1870. The timely letter which we priDt to-day exposes some of the most flagrant provisions of th election law of 1870, which leaves the bal' s, uncounted and unexamined, tn the h( is of the Commissioners of Elections for ten days, the commissioners themselves being, we believe, exclusively Radicals, and, all of them, the appointees of Governor Scott, the candidate for re-election upou the Radical ticket. This law enables the Com? missioners of Electious to elect whom they choose, and so long ns the number of ballots reported agrees willi the total number of names upon the poll lists, the people have no means whatever of detecting fraud and exposing imposition. Common decency, it was supposed, would have caused Gover? nor Scott to appoint one Commissioner of Elections in each county from the Reform party. But', this has not been done. The commissioners are, nearly, without excep? tion, bitter Scott Radicals, and, to cap the climax, some of them are themselves candi? dates for office in the counties for which they are commissioners. We do not say that the law was purposely framed in such a way as to allow the Scott parly to carry out, with? out danger, a deliberately arranged plan for securing the election of the Radical candi? dates by a false count and an exchange of ballots. It is certain, however, that the Commissioners of Elections have the power, if not the will, to throw a majority on the side of Scott, whatever the popular vote may really be. Mr. Ransier, the Radical candidate for Lieutenant-Governor, was the father of the election law of 1370, and as he declared em? phatically that it waa his desire, and that of bis party, lo have an absolutely fair election, a proposition was made to him which, if agreed to by bollfparties, and carried out properly, will give to the whole State the protection against fraud, which cities of over twenty thousand inhabitants .can obtaiu under Hie United States naturalization law, approved July 14th, 1S70. The proposition was, that a committee of four (two Radicals and two Reformers) should be appoiuted for each precinct by the County Committees of the Radical and Reform parties, which com? mittees sliouid remain with the ballot-boxes from the opening of tho polls until the votes ire finally counted. Both parties being fK-ually represented, and by staunch and respectible citizens, there could be no ballot box sniffing and wo fraudulent couu?ag, for it is Dot T'iely that the commissioner.! would attempt lo play false while their mis-conduct was witnessed by representatives of their own party as well as their opponents. This proposition seemed to us fair for both sides, and it i3 due to Mr, Ransier to say that he cheerfully gave it his assent. A letter ac? cepting thc proposition has been forwarded by Mr. Ransier io the Executive Committee of the Reform party, and if agreed to by that body, as it doubtless will be, a joint letter may be prepared advising the County Committees to take step3 at once for appoint? ing ihe several joint committees. Where a County Committee declined to do this, or where ?.he Commissioners of Elections re? fused to allow their proceedings to be watched by the joint committees, it would bc evident that some trick was intended to be practiced. As soon, then, as the aii3werof the Reform Executive Committee i3 receiv? ed it will be published, together with the letter or Mr. Ransier. We have explained this matter at some leugth to couviuce the public that we are not bliud to the iniquitous provisions of the election law, and that we are striving bard to insure a fair and peaceful election. MR. CARDOZO knows that one person, at least, connected with the Laud Commission made money out of it at the expense of the people. Who ls the man ? The members of the Advisory Board, which has supreme con? trol, are Governor Scott, and Messrs. Cham? berlain, Neagle, Parker and Cardozo. Which is it, Mr. Secretary ? "Low Tazvc," 1. In the County Williamsburg 86,542 acres of land-oue-sixCi ol the whole area of the county-has been advertised for sale for iftipaid taxes. 2. In the County of Fairfield 45,000 acres of land-one-tenth of the whole area of the county-i3 advertised to be sold for unpaid taxes. 3. In Darlington 74,389 acres of land one-3ixth of the whole county-and 1103 houses, are advertised for sale for taxes. The Two Strings to His Bow. His Excellency Governor Scott has held office for nearly two years and a half, during which period his midnight dreams, and wak? ing thoughts, have been occupied with the sweet toil of amassing a fortune, and com? passing a re-election. A dexterous manipu? lation of the General Assembly laid the foun? dation of bis fabric of finance. The bills of the Bank of the State, bought at ten cents on the dollar, were transferred to the State in exchange for bonds worth nine times as much. State bonds were picked up for a song, and the people were taxed to death to advance their market price, and pay the in? terest in coin. With the State Treasury and the State Legislature under his thumb, Gov? ernor Scott could operate without risk, and regulate quotations to suit himself. Napo? leon, before the mishap at Sedan, did not speculate at the Bourse with a better pros? pect of profit than was enjoyed by Governor Scott in hi3 vaunted investments in the pub? lic funds of the State. Beginning with an active capital of twenty dollars, or so, in small change, Governor Scott now ranks as a minor millionaire. It ?3 likely, however, that the desired re? election will be more difficult of attainment than a princely fortune. But in this, as in mouey-grabbing, Governor Scott has been consistent. From the very first it has beeu clear that he could not be re-elected by fair means, and for two years or more Governor Scott bas cast about for a way of winning the day by force. The act to suppress in? surrection and rebellion, the act to establish a State police, and Ibe oct to organize the State militia have no other raison d'etre than the determination of Governor Scott to retain, at any hazard, possesfion of the gov? ernment of the State. Under these acts con? stables have been appointed in every county ; and fifteen thousand, or twenty thousand we know not which-riiie3 of improved pat? tern have been placed in the hands of the negro soldiery. The whole story was told in a single sentence when Governor Scott, at Washington, declared that "Winchester Ri "fle law was the only law for South Caro? ona." But even the outrageous misconduct of the militia did not provoke the whites to any deed which could be made to justify the proclamation of martial law-the end to which the Scott RiDg are working. The j whites armed themselves as well as they could, and awaited further developments. These came soon enough. The Confidential Circular exposed the atrocious plot to kill a score of colored men and charge the guilt upon the Reform party, and the murderous outbreaks in Barnwell and In Newberry were evidence enough that the so-called farcical paper was intended to give thc signal for a carnival of blood. No "damnable itera? tion," no labored scod' or ghastly smile, can clinuge these facts or impair their tragical force. lu one respect His Excellency lias counted without his host. The whites, and the con? servative colored men, will not kis3 the rod as they might have done twelve months ago. There are more arms in South Carolina thau are wielded by the Ring militia. And this is why we opine th it Governor Scott will find it easier to accumulate another half million than to cajole, or bully, the honest people of the State. There was some doubt ahoul it before; but '-a little more Winchester rifle law, General Scott," will make certain the triumph of Reform. Ix July last Secretary Cardozo formally announced to the Grand Council of the Union League that the Scott party had levelled up the State debt from six millions to thirteen millions. On the stump he now argues that the increase is only $700,000. Perhaps this arithmetical acrobat means that the whole seven millions-excepting seven hundred thousand dollars-have gone iuto the pockets of the Ring. Blowing Hot and Cold. The Camden Journal slates that Secretary Cardozo, in his address to the Grand Coun? cil of the Union League, delivered in July last, used these words: '-When we entered into power we found thc debt of the State about six millions of dollars. It is now be? tween ?iirtcen und fourteen million dollars. Four millions of this additional sum have been phi''.ged to aid the Blue Ridge Rail? road." Tbjs language may be found on page 9 of the printed address; and the general coiTcctnes3 of this debt statement has been j shown in every Reform journal in the State. Bat Mr. Cnrdozo has changed bis tack aud now declares, in all Ins campaign speeches, that the debt of tho State has been increased only sere? hundred thousand dollars. With his printed estimate of an increase of seven millious stal ing bim in the face, Mr. Cardozo now coolly says that the increase is only one tenth part of that huge sum. The next time that Mr. Cardozo takes the stump he will, perhaps, explain this little inconsistency. A PRIVATB letter received from Laurens, says: "Everything is quiet. Joe Crews has moderated considerably in bis expressions to the negroes, and now refuses to give them arra3. All parlies are under the impression that our prompt action ha3 had a salutary effect." MR. ATTORNEY-GENERAL CHAMBERLAIN, in tbe public prints, speaks of Mr. Timothy Hurley as his friend. Timothy Hurley is a lobby ugent whq boasts that he bought up Hie members of the Legislature and can do it again ; who, in a formal speech, urged tho re-election of Governor Scott on the ground that he had already stolen as much a.3 he wanted; who bas openly said that the lead? ers of the South Carolina Radicals are thieves and are proud of it. Aud Mr. Chamber? lain is flippantly spoken of as the most de? cent aud gentlemanly man ia the Radical party. Well may we pray to be delivered from the Scott Ring, when the best of thc bunch makes a friend of Mr. Tiinolhv Hur? ley. | IT is certain that the arithmetical conjur? ing of Secretary Cardozo ?3 profitable to him, however perplexing it may be to the people of the State. His official salary is. we believe, $3000 a year, and he hus been in ofiice two years. Being something of a bon vivant, he has lived in good style, and is, besides, tba happy possessor of a $5000 (quarter) share in the Greenville and Colum? bia Railroad, and of a house and lot in Co? lumbia. And we are expected to believe that all this came out of six thousand dol? lars. Jes' so. MR. ATTORNEY-GENE RAL CHAMBERLAIN, the bosom friend of Tim Harley, is a mem? ber of the Advisory Board of the Land Com? mission. Mr. Secretary Cardozo, of arith? metical fame, is a member of the same board. Mr. Chamberlain said at Chester that tire charges made by the Reformers against the Land Commission were "Mun chausenisms of the highest type." Bat Mr. Cardozo, in bis addre33 to the Union League, acknowledged that one among those interest? ed with the execution of the Land Commission law had "seen fit to aggrandise himself i? the c?ense of the -people." And Mr. Car? dozo, in his speech at Camden, said that two of the persons connected with the Land Commission had been accused of fraud, and that a committee, of which Mr. Cardozo was one, had been appointed to endeavor to bring the guilty persons to punishment. Now, if Mr. Cardozo tells the truth, and we believe that he Joes, what is to be thought of the integrity and veracity of that smug faced specimen Radical, Mr. Attorney-Gene? ral Chamberlain ? THE Scott Ring promised that they would reform their party if the chance were given them. Thej have had that chance, and in Charleston County nominate, at the head of their ticket, the notorious Timothy Hurley, who is known from one end of the State to the other as the man who, for two years, has bought and sold the votes of the Radical members of the General Assembly of the State. This is a pretty style of reform, isn't it? JAMES M. BROWN, the chairman of the Board of Commissioners of Elections for Darlington County, issues a general order to the managers, in which he says that vrlUdn three days from the close of the election "the chairman of each board or one of each of their members'' shall deliver to the Com? missioners of Elections the poll lists and boxes contaiuiDg the ballot. Under this order one man may have the entire custody of an unsealed ballot box for three days. The plain and evident meaning of this little game ?3-ballot box stuffing or the exchange of votes. We hope that the citizens of Dar? lington will demand, as a right, to be al? lowed to watch these ballot boxes night and day until the ballots are counted. And if the commissioners refuse to do what is fair and proper, let the State know it.
