CARPENTER, OP CHARLESTON. .- For Lleutenaut-Governor, GENERAL M. C. BUTLER, OF EDOEF?ELD. NEWS OF THE HAT. -Gold closed In New York, yesterday, at 13*aU. -Cotton was easier; uplands 16* cents; sales 800 bales. -In Liverpool cotton closed flat; uplands 8Jd., Orleans Sid.; sales 10,000 bales. -It has been decided that a widow may con? tinue the business of her husband without taking out a new license, provided she has the bonds changed to her own name. -A new interest has been given to ramie planting in Louisiana. The fibre of the ramie plant is prepared exclusively for the European market. -On a ranche, on the Carson River. In Ne? vada, Is to be seen a herd of twenty-six camels, all but two raised In that State. But two of the old herd of nine or ten brought here some ? years ago are now living. -The New York Board of Education pro? poses to buy the plates of Audubon's great or? nithological work, which will make lt at once a real educator of the masses in a splendid way and a munificent patron of art. -The Emperor of Brazil proposes, early next year, to leave the Princess Imperial as Regent, and to travel lor two years in Europe and the United States, to observe their Institu? tions, with a view to improving the slate of affairs in his own country. It is thought he will first visit the United States, and make a careful study of our educational systems, for the purpose of adopting them in Brazil. -In driving from Saarbr?cken to Metz, says an English correspondent, on the 14th of September, we were much astonished to ob? serve all tho deserted villages as you near Metz. Where ali the people have flown to God only knows. There ls scarcely a vestige of a peasant to be seen anywhere. The vil? lages for the most part are occupied by the land? wehr, who are only now coming to the front. ! We passed innumerable wagons of provisions J and cattle, driven along the road to the great Prussian army, now well into the heart of . France. -The public generally do not comprehend , the Immensity ol'the effort made by Germany In the present war, or the extent to which she ,is staking her future prosperity. She has placed under arms, It is estimated (in actual regiments marching or ready to march,) her entire youth, all persons between twenty-one and twpnty-six,-physically competent to bear ?arm?. .Indeed, ?tis probably not untrue that Germany has 1,230,000 young men of every class engaged In the v.-ar, in front or in re? serve, while quite as many us 200,000 addi? tional persons must be engaged in manufac? turing, collecting, or forwarding supplies. These figures show that peace is just as much for the interest of Germany as for that of France. -Frere Hyacinthe has recently addressed Minister Washburne, returning thanks for sympathy expressed by him for the French Republic. Frere Hyacinthe further says that Europe, upon which the blood of the heroic deleats of the French have been poured out, still preserves silence, while America in spite of the separating ocean, has made her voice heard. America, he says, affirms that neither distance nor diversity of race snail render lor? eign to one another nations which have but one soul, and claims for the French Republic the inalienable right to live in laboring for thc benefit of all. Frere Hyacinthe has also written a letter expressing his gratification with the 'moble circular ol Jules Favre, at once so moderate and so Arm, so pacific and so high spirited." He also calls upon all the children ot France to rally around the banner ot Favre. The above letters are published in full in the Paris Temps of September 14. -A new Opera Bouffe, entitled "Petit Faust," has Just been introduced by the noto? rious James Fisk, Jr., at the Erie Opera house, in New York. It ls a burlesque of Gounod's g^-eat Faust, and of lt and the prima donna the Tribune says: l< We have used some pretty plain language In times oast with reference to certain performances ut the French Theatre, but we have no heart to spi'akofthe vPetlt Faust' in the tern s which wa ihiuk lt deserves. We may say, however, thai the credit belongs to Mr. Fisk of introducing a play more Indecent and a prima donna raoic revolting than any previously offered to the public of New York, and when we add that the nastiness ?3 not re? lieved by anything pretty, or amusing, or witty, that it is not accompanied by even toler? ably good music, that it stands out in fact in all its stark deformity, we ha- ,> perhaps said ail that the class of people who read our paper wlll care to hear." -In her extremity, France turns to Ameri? can ingenuity instead ol its boasted chussepot for relief. The Army and Navy* Journal ?ays that the steamer Luluyetle took out, ou Tues? day last, fifteen thousand Remington breech? loaders ot the so-called Egyptian pattern, cali? bre 43-100, or eleven millimeters, for the French Government; the Percire having taken five thousand two weeks ago. There were also on board the Lafayette teu thousand Rem? ington army revolvers, three thousand car blues, aud six million of cartridges, mnoufac tu ed bj the (Juiuu Cartridge Company. Tola shipment of arms to France, in itself of little i mportance, acquires significance from theluct that the French authorities have determined to throwaway tue chasseput. and arm their sol? dier? with the Remington. Among the ammu? nition carried by the Lafayette were 400,000 Spencer carbines and a quantify of pistol car? tridges, which, uaving been once la the pos session of the United States Government, car? ried its brand. This ammunition was sent by Messrs. Schuyler, Hartley & Graham, whopur> ,chased it from the government. Metallic car? tridges and American breech-loaders are thus chosen to take the place of Marshal LeBceuf s needle, paper cartridge and rubber stopper. -Wall street, in the absence of the excite? ment of breaking fortunes, has varied its busi? ness by a general demolition of white hats. The arbiters of fashion in the Board Room, it seems, decided that the season ior articles of that color terminated on Monday, and served their wearers with printed circulars to the effect that on that date they would be consider? ed contraband, and treated accordingly. When Trinity clock struck 3, the confiscation began. The Long Roora was filled with flying white hats. The bulls tossed them, and the bears grappled them. Each wearer of an orthodox color took a "flier" and made a great success In the venture "after call." Gold never went up In more lively slyle tiian did tho3e hats, and never came down with such destruction, even on "black Friday." When no hat of the prohibit? ed color was to be found in the Long Room, the army of brokers invaded the Gold Room, stormed the defences and enforced the rule individually and collectively. This was the scene of which the report came that "business at the Stock Exchange was quiet." For a quiet, undemonstrative manner of business, the smashing of white hats can hardly be com? mended, although it may be considered pre? ferable as a relief to the more serious and presumably more lively business which gave way to lt for the time. That Printing. The Thieves' Own charge3 that THE CHARLESTON NEWS applied to the Republi? can party for the public printing, pledging support therefor to the Republican party. This statement is an unmitigated lie. The Thieves1 Own must prove its charge, or be once more convicted of deliberate mendacity. Qualifications for Ofllce. We assume that the Union Reform Con? vention for Charleston County, which meets on Monday next, is determined to nominate staunch and trustworthy men who can take their seats when elected. No candidate, bow I ever intelligent, influential or experienced, ! is of any value to the people if he is not eli? gible under the State Constitution, and can? not take the oath of office. Under the State Constitution no person can hold office who is disqualified therefor by the Constitution of the United States, and members of the General Assembly, and all officers, before entering upon the duties of their respective offices, must take the follow? ing oath: "I do solemnly swear (or affirm, ?us the case may be.) that I am duly qualified, according to the Constitution of the United States and of this State, to exercise the duties of the office to which I have been elected, (or appointed,) and that I will faithfully discharge, to the best ot my abilities, the duties thereof; that I rec? ognize the supremacy of the Constitution and laws of the United States over the constitu? tion and laws of any State; and that I will sup? port, protect and d?tend the Constitution of the United States, aud the Constitution ol South Carolina, as ratified by the people on the Kith day of April. 1S68. So help me God." This oath, il will be seen, only requires the official to swear that he is duly qualified according to the Constitution of the United States and of this State. That is to say, he must le entitled to vote in this State, and must not be disqualified from holding office by the f institution of the United States. Every male citizen, of full age, who has re? sided in the State one year, andiu the county in which he offers to vote sixty days next preceding the ?lection, is entitled to vote. And the only persons disqualified from holding office by the Constitution of the United States aro those affected by the third section of the XIV Constitutional amend? ment, which is as follows : "SEO. 3. Xo person shall be a senator or representative Itr Congress, or elector of presi? dent or vice-president, or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States, or under any Slate, who, having previously taken an oath as a member ol Congress, or as an officer of the United Stales, or as a member of any State Legislature, ?ras an executive or judi? cial officer ol any Slate, lo support the Consti? tution of the United Stales, shall have engag? ed In insurrection or rebellion against the same, or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof; but Congress may, by n vote of two thirds ot each House, remove such disability." Th?? only qualifications iheu of an office? holder in this State ure these: L That he is a citizen of the United Stales, of full age, who lias resided in this State one year and in the county for sixty days, and is not an atheist, nor a pauper, uor confiued in n public prison. 2. That he did not, prior to the be? ginning of the Confed?rate war, hold any State or Federal office, and, afterwards. took part, on the Confederate side, in the Great Rebellion. No iron-clad oath is required to be taken; nor any other oath than the one printed above. Tlie ..Argumentum ad HomlneiU." The Scott Radicals, in their Campaign Ad? dress, declare that the Union Reformers seek, "by the most vulgar personal abuse, and da?, "tardly slanders." to bully their way to power. It is not to the taste of any Reform journ? alist to pry into the private affairs of u political opponent, whether he holds a< many offices ns Corbin, or coins ns many falsehoods as the arithmetic man of tlie Ring. But the State officiais, high and low. are t!i<.' servants of the people, and, when any of them accumulate fortunes with mar? vellous rapidity upon a small salary, the peo? ple have u right to inquire where the money came from. When Governor Scott, beginning with nothing, becomes a million? aire; when Secretary Canlozo, who, at Um time of his eiectioD, was utterly impecunious, acqi es houses uh J railroad shares; when Attorney-General Charuberiain,startiugfrom the same point, deftly follows suit; when Comptroller-General Neagle, whose pocket was empty two years ago. is able, one year later, tu return an income of $15.000 or S16, ooo; when Speaker Moses, a rubed man when he was elected, is able to buy land and pay debts amounting t0 $150,000-the peo? ple have the right to adc and to inquire whether these fortunes were honestly made, or aro, in reality, the corrupt gains of a pack of perjuring thieves. It is not pleasant to play ibo part of an amateur detective, and tho Ring wouid like to be let aloue; but while the whole ?cott Ring are charged with crimes which fit them for a matriculation at tbe State Penitentiary, the press of South Carolina do not intend to test tbe honesty and capacity of the present government by the provisions of a bill to provide for the roasting of peanuts, or of a joint resolution to authorize the application of a coat of lime wash to the mangy, hides of the King. Very much against our own placid inclin? ations we are forced to call a spade a spade, and not a ferruginous agricultural implement. Kleptomania ?3 a softer word than theft, but theft conveys the exact idea. And we should like to knowhow to avoid what is called a "personal attack" when the whole record of the King government is that of personal misconduct and personal trick and decep? tion. Take half a dozen examples. Gover? nor Scott, who ''can't make a speech" in South Carolina, makes a speech in Wash? ington, and declares that thi3 State is a nest of assassins, and that ."Winchester Rifle "law" is the only law fit for us. Joe Crews, a member of the Legislature, tells tbe color? ed people that they should help themselves to the lands of the whites, and burn down their houses if they feel aggrieved. Comp? troller-General Neagle declares that the new standard of Republicanism i3 '.'the Winchester "Rifle and Bayonet." Tim Hurley buys and sells votes for two years; declares "that all the "leaders of the Radical party in South Caroli "na are thieves, and are proud of it," and be comes a caudidate for the Legislature. Nearly every State official is accused of cheating the'State through the Land Ring, and the members of the General Assembly are known to.have been bought and sold like sheep in the. market. These are personal charges. They are, al30, offences against the people. Is the press of this State to be silent because the facts show that Scott is a vile incendiary; that Hurley is wholly unfit to represent any set of people outside of the Penitentiary; that Joe Crews is a ruffian, whom a long cord and short shrift would suit better than a seat in the legislative chamber; that Neagle Ls either a kleptoma? niac or the wearer of the cap of Fortunatas ; that the whole Ring government is rot? ten in stem, root and branch ? We know that these aro personal charges, but they relate to the public conduct of pub? lic men. It matters not to us whether Gov? ernor Scott does or does not employ Major Rollins-so long as the State does not pay for it. We care not a jot whether the State officials drink small beer or champagne-so long a3 the State does not foot the bill. It is not our affair if every Ring-man became a Croesus-so long as he has not filched his wealth from the coffers of the State. What we look to Ls the interest of thc people of South Carolina, and when the people are robbed, cheated and abused, we iuteud to call the robbers, the cheats and the bullies by their right names, whether it is agreeable or not to the culprits themselves or to the dainty time-servers, who chew rose' leaves aud sip ambrosia, while the State is going to the everlasting dogs. Come Down to lt. The Thieves' Own hashes up thc old story that Judge Carpenter bribed certaiu mem? bers of the Legislature, in order to secure the passage of a bill in which he was inter? ested. Judge Carpeuter has, to our knowl? edge, deuied on the stump the truth of this statement, and has solemnly declared that be never offered to a member of the General Assembly a bribe of any kind upon any oc? casion. Until, therefore, 'members of the Legislature can be produced who will prove that they were bribed by Judge Cat pouter, or attempted to be bribed, the public will continue to treat the allegations against the Reform candidate as utterly false aud un? worthy of belief. Pc^cavl ! The State Constitution requires thc solici? tor of each circuit to reside withiu his cir? cuit. Mr. Attorney-General Chamberlain is the solicitor for this circuit and resides in Columbia, in this particular violatiug the constitution which he has sworn to defend ami support. Mr. Chamberlain discharges none of the duties of the office of solicitor, and, for all that we know, draws pay for work which is done by a deputy. The only reparation that Mr. Chamberlain can now make ia to acknowledge that, for two years, he has lived in daily violatiou of his official oath. When he bas doue this-he may be permitted to resign. '.FEELS ms OATS"-that is to say, Prus? sia feels Napoleon's, as will appear from the following, communicated from thu spot to the Nene Freie Presse: Such rich boot) has not been made in any war, since the begin? ning of railways. To say nothing of McMa? hon's exchequer, or his crinolines, there was found at Forbach a supply of oats, sufficient to cover seven years of famine, like Joseph's lean Egyptian Septenuary. Most of the sacks were marked "Berliu," showing thur, Napoleon had purchased his supply of oats for this war in Prussia. But when could ho have done this ? This, also, has beim as? certained to the very day, hy the Berlin Pro? duce Exchange. It wa3 one morning in February last, when oats suddenly took a ris?* from 25 to 40. The reason then assign? ed, on 'Change, for this unaccountable up? ward loa]) was, that large orders had arrived from England and Sweden, aud the "Bulls" and "Bears" of Berlin were wondering what Euglu::.'. un'i Sweden wanted with so mueii oats. Nov, it is all clear a3 day. Behind Eugland and Sweden stood Napoleon, who knew, in February lost, that there would be a 00.*!? lid: in July between himself aud Germany. Thc Campaign. -Thc Hing Radicals tried to keep Jonas Byrd from spuaUingat Greenville Courthouse Monday. T:MV didn't do it. - Foi ll>r?? weeks the Ring Radicals had advertised :i mammoth mass meeting on the 27th, al Bdtfetti'id Courthouse. The day came, and only two hundred persons were present.

If the spirit arid the will "say come," and we obey, Ihv ugh; is won." Well Done ! The Edgefield Advertiser says that Gov? ernor Scott has accepted a white militia company formed in Edgefield. His Excel lency the Governor is coming to his senses at last. Hip, hip, hurrah ! A SPECIAL election will be held in the First Congressional District, on the 19th instant, to till the vacancy caused by the resignation of Congressman Whiltemore.
