Twelve thousand were subscribed to aid the French Government on Saturday, and $6000 collected for the Protest? ant and Catholic orphan asylums of Philadel? phia. -Knoxville, Tennessee, is rapidly acquiring importance as a manufacturing centre, and In 'that respect is setting a good example for other southern and southwestern cities.

Several gentlemen are about embarking largely In the manufacture of agri? cultural implements and woodenware. -A new and fearful warning ls held up to tea-drinkers. A savant has discovered that when we pour milk Into a cup of tea or coffee the albumen of the milk and the tannin of the tea instantly unite and form leather, or minute flakes of the very same compound which ls produced in thc texture of the tanned hide, and which makes it leather us distinguishable /rom the original skin.

Tt ls intended for Invalids who spe .cially require such a climate, at once bright, mild and clear, as is found in thai part of Egypt? The French Mediterranean resorts are expected to be to a certain extent inaccesible this year; consequently the numerous cases of chronic rheumatism, bronchitis, and the irrita? ble form.of phthisis that would ordinarily ?ind refuge in the South ol France or Algeria, will be driven to look further. -Dr. Johunn Jacoby, just sentenced by the Prussian Governuieut to a tenn ol imprl>on ment for drafting resolutions against the forci? ble annexation ol French territory, knows more of the inside of prisons than even Silvio Pellico. He is an old-time consistent leader of the German Democratic party, and has always been in the van of political movements. In 1840 he wrote a memoir on the policy of the government, for which he was sentenced to three years' ImprisonmenL After 1S48 he was a member of the first German Parliament, and then of the Prussiau Chamber. . He was a steady oplnionlsl, and though speaking but rarely, made himself dreaded by his tact and management in the House. When the Parlia? ment was forcibly dissolved he retired to Switzerland, but hearing that there was pro? cess against him for treason, he voluntarily re turned and fought the lawsuit successfully. He was again elected, but refused to serve and re turned to his practice. He was subsequently a member of the new Chamber, and was sent to prison lor seditious language; and again for another fourteen months for his memoirs of Henri Simon. His persecution by the Govern? ment of Prussia has been unremitting. -"The Great Monopoly''-which, we are In? formed, is the apt designation accepted for it? self by the Western Union Telegraph Compa? ny-finds both a historian and a panegyrist in a contributor to Lippincott's Magazine fur Oc? tober. The manner lu which this corporation, by the process of crushing out and buying in opposition, has grown in ten years time from a weak local oiyaul/.allon with a capital of less than a million dollars into a mammoth monop? oly with a capital or $40,000,000, and virtually controlling all the telegraph communication in the Lulled butte,, is set forth in quite an in? teresting way; but when the author asserts, a< he does by implication, ai least, that the pnb lic has been the gainer by the absorption he is going a lillie too far. Hardly an vi bin- is bet ter known by the bitter experteuce of the American people lhan that the telegraph ser vice is much poorer throughout the entire country aud the cost far greater than in the good, old days of healthy competition. Asa general rule, rival corporations don't consoli? date and cumbiue for the purpose of givic better service aud lower rates to the public" an?i the Western Uuiou Company ls uo excep? tion to it, as everybody knows. -An English paper says: "The very easv Circumstances iu which deposed or abdicaUu potentates contrive to pass "the years of their retirement' has o?en been the subject of re? mark. Should fl? name ot Napoleon III be added to thia list, it may comfort those who sympathize wlthhlm to know that he will-be no exception to his. predecessors. It ls now no secret In Amsterdam that his Imperial Ma? jesty about a month back placed ?400,000 in Dutch railway bonds, upon the dividends of which, with other investments, he and his family may innnage to get on very comforta? bly. The denouement may possibly seem a little unromantic to the thousands who have spent their blood in the Imperialist cause, cheered by the inspiriting addresses of their leaders and the conviction that they followed a mau whose motto was 'Mort ou victorieux;' but after all they deserve their disappointment tor having so mistaken the spirit of their age. What was the use ot 'Mr.' Burke's telling them eighty years back that the 'age of sophisters, econorais'3 and calculators' had succeeded that ot chivalry ? Did they really suppose that a European sovereign would stake his life upon a battle, and die at the head of his fol? lowers, like an ignorant Abyssinian prince ? Did they indeed require actual experience to prove to them that Darius, 'fallen from his high estate,' no longer 'welters in his blood,' but retires calmly upon his other estates, real and personal, and passes the remainder of bis life either in harmless field sports or in philo? sophical reviews of his own career ?" Union Reform Mass Meetings. We are requested by the Executive Com? mittee of 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 beeu invited to address these meetings, and are expected to be present. The names of the speakers at the different Courthouses will be published shortly. The Executive Committees of counties are requested to make such other arrangements as may be necessary. The Way to Have a Fair Election. It will be seen by the accompanyiug cor? respondence that General Kershaw agrees to the proposition, already assented to by Mr. Ransior, for the appointment of a joint com? mittee for each election precinct in the State, which committees shall remain with the ballot-boxes from the time that the first ballot is deposited until the votes are finally cauvassed. These committees cannot, of course, control the conduct of the managers and commissioners of elections, nor force them to act fairly and in accordance with the law. But the presence of the commit? tees will either prevent fraud, or it will af? ford the means for exposing the fraud, as well as punisliiug the wrong-doers. If, therefore, the plan be carried out in good faith, both parties will have all the protec? tion, in the matter of polling and canvassing the vote.'-, that their members expect or desire. It is due to Mr. Rausier to say, that, from the beginning, he was perfectly willing to accept the proposition made to him on be? half of the Union Reform party, and we hope that there will be no unnecessary delay tn taking such action as will enable the joint committees to be appointed at once: ROOMS OF THE ) REPUBLICAN STATE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE, ]? CHARLESTON, S. C., September 22, 1870. ) To Major E. W. Seib"ls, Secretary and Treas? urer '?'Union Reform Parly," Columbia, S. C.: SIR-Captain F. W. Dawson and others of the "Uuion Reform Party" have spoken to me on the subject of the ensuing election In this State, setting forth their desire to have joint committees appointed for each polling pre? cinct throughout the State, say two from each party, whose duty it will be to see that fair play is had at the pells, and in the canvassing ot tue votes, to which I heartily agree. Mr. Cardozo, Mr. Mackey and Mr. Nash, of the Republican Executive Committee, to whom I have spoken, concur. Of course it will be a matter for the decision ol the county canvassers as to wheth? er or not these committees will be, as such, permitted to witness inquisitorially the can? vassing of the votes. Ia my judgmeut, the plan ought to recommend itself to both parties. In any case, I shall do what I can in this and every other way legitimately to secure a fair election. Though a candidate myself, I should spurn from inc the thought of Occupying an ellice that lias been secured by fraud or vio? lence. I do not think that the "Reform party" need fear, whether this plan Is adopted or uot, that the Republican party intend to elect its candi? dates by any other than fair and legitimate means. Au early reply will much oblige A. J. RAN'SIKU, Chairman Republican Slate Ex. Com. E. W. M. MAC-SET, Secretary Rep. State Ex. Com. CAMDEN, S. C., September 24, 1570. Hon. A. J. Runtier, Chairman Republican State Executive Committee: SIR-On behalf of the Executive Committee ol the Union "Reform" party, I take pleasure in acknowledging your communication of thc 22d instanl, addressed to Major E. W. Seibels, the secretary of the committee, communicat? ing the assent of the Executive Committee of the Republican party, to the appointment of a Joint commiiiee of two persons from each party, at each polling precinct iu the Slate, .'to see that fair play i< had at the polls and In the canvassing cf the votes," at the ensuing election. Though, as you suggest, the proposed ar? rangement might not be acceded to by the manugers and commissioners, yet the plau is so Just, and so admirably calculated to allay the appr?hensions of the people, already so greatly excited, and to satisfy all of the fair? ness of (he election, that it is scarcely to be ex? pected that any will refuse their accord with th?* very commendable views contained in your letter. In the present temper of the people, lt is not or.'y necessary lliat the elections should be fairly conducted, but that they should know that they hud been so conducted. We, therefore, willingly agree to your pro? position, and will take the proper measures to larry lt Into operation on our part. I am, slr. respectfully, ?Ssa, J. B. KEHSHAW, Chairman Ex. Com. Union Reform Party. REMEMBER that every vote counts on thc general ticket. Your legislative and county tickets will be elected as surely with five hundred majority as with a thousand. But the difference iu five hundred votes, on the : general Slate ticket, may give the Reformers, or their opponents, the election. i EVES if you cannot secure a Reform ma- | ?ority iu your precinct, strain every nerve to i make the Reform vole as large as possible, i Thi3 must be doue Tor the sake of the gene- I rul ticket. 1?1L LlliiXVHj?iun Birds of a Feather After all said and done, i here maj- be Eolid reasons why Mr. Attorney-General Cham? berlain should make a friend of the noto? rious Timothy Hurley. "What is the exact nature of the tie between the polished Chamberlain and the glib Hurley will not be known just yet. While Hurley waa buying and selling votes, Mr.' Chamberlain, a mem? ber pf the Advisory Coard, meekly folded his arras and made no attempt to unearth the rascalities of the Land Commission. The one argued that if he did not bribe the mem? bers of the Legislature somebody else would. The other proclaims himself an honest man because he, in person, did not steal the mouies of the State. A fellow-feeling makes them wondrous kind. In one respect, how? ever, Tim Hurley is a worthier Bpecimeu of Radical humanity than his friend, the Attor? ney-General of the State. Hurley never pretends to be other than what he is; nor does he, in higgling for votes, violate any oath of office. Mr. Chamberlain, on the other hand, swore "to supnort, protect and "defend" the Constitution of South Carolina, and every day of his life that solemn pledge is brokeD. The 29th section of the State Constitution is as follows : There Rhall be one solicitor for each circuit, who shall reside therein, to be elected by the qualified electors ol'the circuit. Mr. Chamberlain is the solicitor for the Charleston Circuit, and is the only person who can properly perform it3 duties. The duties of the office he certainly ha3 not per? formed, and the public would like to know whether he has drawn the pay. Rut beyond this there is the fact that Mr. Chamberlain does not reside within the circuit. The con? stitution, which he has sworn to support, says that he shall live within this circuit, and in defiance of the constitution, in violation of his oath, he continues to reside in Colum? bia. We do not know whether he i3 paid for doiug-noth'ng as circuit solicitor, but he is the regularly elected solicitor, and does not obey, for even a day, that fundamental law which he helped to frame and vowed to support. Now, under the circumstances, is it sur? prising that Mr. Circuit Solicitor and Attor? ney-General Chamberlain should write in the public prints of his friend Tim Hurley, in? stead of framing an indictment against that slippery individual under the law for the prevention of bribery and corruption ? EARLY in the lute war General Dix ex? pressed the sentiment of Northern Republi? canism in these well-known words: "If any "man hauls down the United States flag, "shoot him on the spot." F. J. Moses, Jr., did haul down that flag when Fort Sumter surrendered. When the Union came in, this hauler-down of the Stars and Stripes, this ci-devant aide-de-camp to Governor Picketts, went over to the winning side, and, instead of being shut down, is made Adju? tant-General of the Slate and Speaker of the Lower llouse. For Moses, pence has its victories as well as war. Try Again, Mr. Merryman! A special .committee of the Scott party have issued a lugubrious address, in which they quote the declaration of General Ker? shaw that "every emotion of bis heart aud "aud every thought of his mind" was in ac? cord with the secession movement in 1S60 They then ask: "Are these the men whose "wisdom in the pasl, or whose present aims "and sympathies, make them worthy of the "confidence of a people whose homes have "been desolated, and their wealth wasted, "in the cause of disloyalty and secession." The plain English of it is, that General Ker? shaw cannot be honest now because he was a secessionist ten years ago, and has never regretted that he battled so nobly in de feuce of his native State. This tempts us to ask the Scott party how they can venture to repose confidence in Judge Orr and Colo? nel Graham. Judge Orr was a Confederate colonel aud a Confederate senator. In 18C6 he entreated tho General Assembly to refuse to ratify the Fourteenth constitutional amendment. Only a few mouths ugo he de? nounced the South Carolina Radicals as men who are "ignorant, corrupt und dis "hopest." Yet Judge Orr is to be trusted, his political lucubrations are the text book of Radicalism, aud a soft seat on the Su? preme Bench is already warming for his re? ception. Colonel Graham was a Confederate soldier and did his duty in trie army. At the eleventh hour he becomes ar Republican, in name, and he, also, is welcomed as a prodigal son to the bosom of the Ring. Thc Scott party will confide in Orr and Graham, who are aspirants for public office, and no one casts in their face their Confederate rec? ord, or their hearty condemnation, a while ago, of the ideas which Radicalism honors most. Rut General J. B. Kershaw-who seeks uo office, and will accept lione? ls not to be trusted, because, forsooth, ten long years ago he was the advocate and supporter of secession. The Scott committee may succeed better next time. Let them try again. TUE Anderson Intelligencer, alluding to the apostacy of Judge Orr, says : "If J udge "Orr has such an unbounded influence and "popularity in this region, let the issuii be "made without doubt, and we are entirely .'willing to abide the result. Clear the field, "and let there bo an undoubted tesl as to "whether or not the Radical party has "gained slreugih among the masses." The Consistent Moses. In the address of the Radical Convention to the people of the State, it is broadly said that men like General Kershaw aro un? worthy of th? confidence of a people, "whose homes have beeu desolated, and "their wealth wasted, in the cause of dis? loyalty and secession." And this address is signal by F. J. Moses, Jr., the Speaker of the House of Representatives. Moses is a native Carolinian, who was so rabid in 1800 that, as aide-de-camp to Governor Pickens, be demanded to be allowed to hui ! down the United States flag when Port Strater sur? rendered. Moses was also in the Confede? rate army, which, however, he left for that army's good. And this brazen renegade, who abuses now all that, ten years ago, be professed to revere, has tb? effrontery to tell the people that a pure Christian gentle? man like General Kershaw is not worthy of their confidence and trust- There is not, we undertake to say, a decent colored man il JU TT O . ll IJJ/llUUJ/nii . . . . * in South Carolina who vrould not take Gene? ral Kershaw's simple word in preference>to Moses's oath. " : " -.>??'?:, I THE progress of tho Union! Ket?rm can? vass is most encouraging, but mach remains to be done. Now is the time for committees and snb-ccmmittee3 to be actively at work. The standard-bearers of the party have worked with' unflagging energy, and have addressed the people in twenty-nine of the thirty-one counties in the State. It is now the turn of the people.
