Alter a prolonged conflict, during which both were cut and slashed to an extent that satisfied their friends, they were separa? ted and carried to surgeons to have their wounds dressed. Neither of them was mor? tally hurt. . -On all the street railroads In New York and Brooklyn, with one exception, and on the Washington and Georgetown street railway, and on the Cincinnati and Philadelphia lines,the fare has been reduced to five cents,now that the United States tax is repealed, which allowed the collection of one cent from each passen? ger. The Washington Star says of the reduc? tion to five cents in that city, it having been only six cents heretofore : "It may b?*rough for the stockholders, but the public like the re ' ductiou amazingly. A five cent fare is so handy, you know ! An exuberant friend announces hi-? parp?se to ride over the road all day, to enjoy the luxuries of paying five-cent lares." -A Sedan letter, of the 8th, says: "McMa? hon ls nere, very badly but not mortally wounded, and a prisoner.

She was at the Marshal's estate, near N'ismes, and would have come lo her husband in twenty-tour hours, but the Prussians would not allow her to pass their Hues, and so she had to go round by the centre and west of France, r>*ach Paris, thou go by the Northern railway to Brussels, und so | < come through Bouillon to Sedan over the Bel? gian frontier. From all I hear, McMaiion would be-likely to recover quickly from his wound were it not that he frets and fumes at the past and worries himself very much about the future.

Statuettes stand in frequent niches along the sides, and brown and gold candelabra, of thir? ty lights each, swing censers of exotic per? fume. Carrara marble mantels, immense mirrors, carpet an Inch thick, lace curtains, and blue moire antique upholstering are found In the parlor, where a $1500 plano stands open, and from which one steps, through a back parlor carpeted with Kidderminster, into a conservatory containing exotics, an aviary, two aquarias and a fountain, the air fragrant with spice-smells and alive with splashing water and rippling bird-song. The drawing room is a repetition of magnificence, with frescoes, paintings and objects of art. Purple velvet curtains hang from tue windows*, and at one end, falling from ceiling to floor, hide an alcove containing a richly carved bedstead Inlaid with ivory and fitted up with toilette ap? purtenances In the style of Henry IV. The third floor Is devoted to sleeping apartments, and that above to the servants' rooms. A circular window, painted with the loves of Venus, sheds light over the grand staircase of mahog? any, through whose stained pictures a bril? liant illumination is reflected at night from numberless gas-jets. In the basement ls the dining-room, fitted up to correspond with the royal magnificence above, and the culinary de? partment, capable of supplying the wants, of a dinner party of a hundred. No wonder Madam Claflin, the mother of the two lady brokers, says she "sometimes thinks it looks like heaven itself," or that the interviewing re? porter overhauled his tale of* Allah-ed-Deen before writing it up. Our Supplement To-Day. The pressure of advertisements compels us, in justice to our readers, to issue this morning a two-page supplement, which will be found to contain a deal of instructive arfd entertaining reading matter.* The masterly speech of General Conner on the State finances, the discussion by two colored meo of the relative merits of Radicalism and Re? form, and the interesting details about the policy of Russia, will all repay careful peru? sal The Ladies will, of course, be eager to read the fashion revelations of Jennie June. The Sophistries of Attorney-General Chamberlain. - The Reform party demands a change of government, because the ScottRing have in? creased taxation, piled up the State debt mountains high, and, by their shameless cou fluct, brought a blush to tue cheek of every tionest man in the State. The Scott Ring, 30 the other hand, take up th? gauntlet and Jeclare themselves ready to stake their po? litical fortunes upon the financial record of their party. The main assertions of the scott Ring were exposed, and their mis? statements pointed out, in the public prints, lt became necessary to make out a better :ase than was shown in the official records, md Mr. Attorney-General Chamberlain, an idroit pleader of a bad cause, was put before :he public as the champion of the fltmnciul policy of the administration. It is admitted that he did his work well, and his speech delivered at Chester is accepted as an otli cial exposition of the financial condition of the State, and of the value and cost of the services performed by the ruling party. The best foot is put foremost in this speech, which ia circulated all o\*er South Carolina as a campaign document. We have the right, therefore, to require the Scott Ring to staud squarely upsn the record as presented by Mr. Caatnberlain ; and we may fairly :laim that a demolition of his Ingeniously contrived financial fabric is a complete an? swer to the plea that the Scott Ring have given the State a wise, honest and ?conomi? sai government. This is no unreasonable lemand, and we contend that General Con? ler, in the speech printed in another column, mows, by official statements, the incorrect? ness of Mr. Chamberlain's assertions, and proves the literal correctness o? the charges if extravagance brought against the Scott party. General Conner, after showing that the iverage annual taxation in the State, for ten years ending in 1S59, was $431,899, ind in i860 wo* *1.500, OOO -more than 'hree times as much-points out the fact that .he total appropriations for State and county purposes for the years 1858 and 1859 were 51,531,607, and in 1868 and 18C9 were S3, 131,41)9-more (han double. Mr. Chamber? lain will not -deny the accuracy of these figures, yet he argues that "the taxation in "1S68 was only $130'r000 more than in 1859." To justify this statement, Mr. Chamberlain ileducts, from the total taxation of 1868, a ?uui of $250,000 for accrued interest, claim ?d to be chargeable to preceding adminis? trations. This sum was appropriated for payment of interest, but not one dollar was mid from the taxes: the whole amount, as the reports show, was paid out of the pro? ceeds of the bonds sold or pawned by au? thority of the Legislature for that purpose. Here, then, to begin wilh, is an error, or? misstatement, of a quarter ot a million dol? ?ais. In reviewing the expenditures of ?'?O and 1869, Mr. Chamberlain makes several de? ludions from the latter, on the ground th ut "in 1859 and 1360 that interest was paid 'iwholly by the Bank oj the State." This statement convicts Mr. Cnomberlaia of gross negligence, or of a bold attempt to deceive the people, for Geueral Conner shows ihat in both 1S59 and 1SG0 large sums were rais? ed by taxation for the payment of interest on the debt, and were expended for thut purpose. Mr. Chamberlain dues not stop here, fie deducts from the current expenses for 1869 nearly half a million dollars fur ex? traordinary expenses aud interest, and theti sets down 5617,678 as the real expenditure hr that year, as against $549,215 in 1860. jreueral Conner shuws that, in this state? ment also, Mr. Chamberlain is at least con? spicuously inexact. Assuming, therefore, the orreetuessuf Mr. Chamberlain's figures, Greiieral Conner proves that the expendi? eres of the Scott Ring government far ex? ceed those of any other administi'ation. But Mr. Chamberlain's figures are not cor? rect. Deducting from the expenditures of I860 extraordinary expenses similar to those deducted by Mr. Cnamberlain from ihe ex? penditures of 1868 we flnd that the reat cur? rent expenses were in 1S60 $ 156J542 LESS l'!LAN THE SUM AT W1IICU MR. CHAMBERLAIN POTS THEM. Moreover, the sum of W24.424 deducted as paid to H. H. Kimp /?n must be regarded willi doubt and sus licion. This was no old claim ! Nor do ;he accounts of H. H. Kimpton and the. ComptroUer-Generally tally. One shows that $1,827,639 is due the Financial Agent, and the other that, only $593,866 ia due him. A slight difference! surely. Looking closely into the accounts between Kimpton and the State, General Conner flnds'further, and still more startling, instances of discrepancies in the official accounts. It is -plainly shown that Mr. Kimpton does not give the State credit Tor the money charged by the treasur? er as paid to him. Who has that money ? Perhaps Mr. Chamberlain, who knows so much, can enlighten an anxious public. Returning to the financial exhibit, General Conner show3 that Mr. Chamberlain OVER? STATES BY 8165,000 the amount of bills re? ceivable outstanding in 1868. Unless the Scott government reissued $165,000 of these ?bills, they did not have to redeem them. Again', Mr. Chamberlain says that the Scott government found the treasury EMPTY, but the old government turned over to Gover? nor Scott's treasurer nearly ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS. General Conner also shows the fallacy of the statements made by Mr. Chamberlain with regard to the Bine Ridge bonds. This closes General Conner's review of the financial administration of Governor Scott. The results are stated fairly, and the author? ity is given for every assertion. . It i3 shown clearly that Mr. Chamberlain is grossly ig? norant of what he defends and pretends to justify and explain, or that he has, in cold blood, attempted to cajole and deceive the public. And the investigation which has brought to light the blunders, or false state? ments, of Attorney-General Chamberlain, proves conclusively that the Scott adminis? tration, far from justifying the encomiums, of its tools, has been marked by official ig? norance and extravagance-if not personal corruption. We hope that every merchant, business man and property-holder in South Carolina will read General Conner's speech. They may then, at last, understand how vitally important to them is the success of the Re? form party. The Count} Ticket. The nominations of the Uhiou Reform Convention for Charleston County have been well received. There are some malcontents,' of course, bat the masses of the people will cordially support the regular Reform ticket, and thc unsuccessful candidates, the pain of their disappointment over, will not be wil? ling to allow personal feeling to stand in the way of the success of the party. Our sister couuties are working vigorously and effi? ciently, and, if we value the commercial position of Charleston, we cannot afford to set an example of discord and disaffection. Every chance word spoken at the street cor? ners will be used to the detriment of the Re? form movement. Out of every mole-hill will be made a political mouutain. The ticket is not perfect in every respect, but it is a good ticket, thoroughly represen? tative in character, and the unbiassed choice of the County Convention. An attempt is said to have been made to force a cut-and-dried ticket upon the Convention ; and, if this be so, the whole scheme was an ignominious failure. The delegates were not men who could be tampered with, and they did their work honestly, expeditiously and well. The duty of the people is now clear and plain. They know what are the character? istics of the Scott Ring, and what are the re? sults of two years of extravagant misrule. They have before them two tickets-one made np of men who are sent to the Legislature for a special purpose, and who have no other ob? ject than to take things easily and retire from public life .with a competence, as soon as possible; the other is composed of intel? ligent, honest men, who represent all shades of politics, ali classes and all interests, and who, if elected, will labor diligently to secure a government which shall be pure, econo? mical and just. Between these two the peo? ple must take their choice. Energetic ac? tion for the two weeks thal reinaiu will elect the Reform ticket; but dissension, indolence and luke-warmness will ensure the victory of the ruinous Scott party. A Striking Fact. One striking fact looms up in the speech delivered by General Conner at Cam? den on Monday. It is, that tho appropria? tions for 1868 and 1S69-two years of the Scott administration-were S 1,879,861 02 in excess of the total appropriations for 185S and 1859. Yet, Mr. Chamberlain placidly declares that South Carolina is economically governed. WHAT confidence can be reposed in any of the statements made by tho Scott Ring when their chosen warrior, Attorney-Geueral Chamberlain, is convicted of school-boy ignurauce, or malicious misrepresentation? There might be some excuse for "my friend Mr. Hurley," bat where will Mr. Chamber? lain-candidate for the United States Senate, at that-hide his diminished head ? THE certificates attached to the letter of Mr. Jamison, in regard to the Andrews Collier land job, are signed by men of the highest respectability, whose veracity no disinterested person will feel inclined to doubt. Even Mr. Andrews will doubtless admit that there were good grouuds for ex? posing the whole transaction. A GREAT many businessmen say that they cannot atlord to take part m politics. When they have read General Conuer's expos? of Mr. Champlain's Chester oration, they will be more inclined to agree with us that no one who has any property, or expects to have any, can afford not to take? an active part in the fast approaching elections. TUE card of Mr. Jamison, und accompany? ing affidavits, printed this morning, clear up the mystery hanging over the Andrews-Col? lier laud purchase. What a pleasant little ar? rangement, surely !
