-Gold at New York yesterday closed firm

-The New York cotton market opened firm
but closed easy at I6gc; sales 2500 bales.
-In Liverpool cotton clo.-ed quiet and un -
? ?hanged, with sales of 10,000 bales.
-They are buyiog horses in California, at
twenty dollars a head, to transport tc the At?
lantic States.
-The French now make "artificial India
rubber,** which is said to be as good, and much
cheaper, than the.real article.
-There .are reports tljat the Camanche In?
dians have abandoned all attempts at scalping
any of the colored troops on the frontier.
-The Mississippi papers insist that Gover?
nor Alcorn shall demand ol Governor Sen ter
the bodies of Tennessee duellists who have
violated the laws and desecrated the soil of
.Mississippi.
-So unpopular are all evidences of imperial?
ism in Paris, that gentlemen who wear waxed
moustaches a la Napoleon le Petit, become at
once objects of suspicion, and all wearers of
such hirsute appendages are in danger of mob
violence. Imperials on the chin are also un?
der ban.
-Ah the leading hotels and restaurants in
New York have advanced the price of cham?
pagne, owing to the growing scarcity ?of that
luxury in the American market, as a result of
the European war. The domestic manufac?
tories, of which there are several on Long Is?
land, no doubt will come to the rescue.
-Rewards for special acts of courage are ad?
vertised in the German papers. One paper
has a list of these prizes which extends
through seven columns. The rewards com?
prise recompense in money, amounting in
some cases to many thousands of thalers, be?
sides gold meda's. rifles, gold watches, car?
riages, thousauds of bottles of wine, and Innu?
merable other articles.
-Further developments about the ravages
Of the yellow lever in New York City and the
suburbs are pubtlbhed. A soldier slopping at
125 Clinton street died with the disease on
Saturday. Ol her cases are believed to be iu
- the city. Governor's Island, the plague spot,
ls completely quarantined, and all communi?
cation with it, except through the health
office ls cut off
-The citizens of Baltimore, Philadelphia
.and New York, are taking measures to exteud
relief to the sufferers by the great treshet in
. Virginia. The Mayor of New York has called
a public meeting for the purpose. The cham?
ber ol commerce of that city will open sub?
scriptions on its own behalf, and it is more
than likely the stock exchange wff. vote a
handsome donation.
-Letters from Liverpool, by Hie City of
Paris, which arrived at New York on Monday,
state that owing to the reported advance of
the German army on Havre, and its threaten?
ed bombardment, large quantities of cotton
and oitu-r int-relianili.-'e, originally intended to
be forwarded irom ihat port to different parts
?Of the continent, are now being sent back to
Liverpool. Silks and other Hue material are
now coming forward Irom Havre to Liverpool,
and shipped thence to Bordeaux, en route to
the Brazils and South America.
-The Loudon Times, in the lollowing edito?
rial paragraph, comes to the rescue ot Louis
Napoleon's reputation for integrity: "Unless
we are misinformed, Hie Emperor Napoleon,
who has been the chiet ot the French Slate for
nearlv twenty-two years, and Its almost abso?
lute master for nearly eighteen, retains no
properly but a small cottage which came to him
from his mother. Call it rashness, call itover
weenlng confidence, or call lt a generous care?
lessness, ii is proved by ihe evcut that be did
not devote his reign to the accumulation ol'
money. Whatever he has received from France
.he has spent lu the country, in accordauce
with the social system established with the em?
pire."
-A Paris correspondent writes : UA story
which is afloat In Paris, is that of the exist?
ence of a subterranean passage, with one en?
trance beyond the fortications and another m
Paris itself. I have seen the letter conveying
Ibis information io the authorities. The writer
.says he has lt from one of the masons em
ployed in the work, who offers to come to
Paris with a safe conduct, he being a German.
The letter seems quite honest, and some of the
details are curiously minute. I laney the
writer ls in good faith, but that he has been
hoaxed by some German workmen. The sub?
terranean passage is said to have been the
work of six years, and to have been dug by
German workmen ou high pay, who were
always taken to and from their work blind?
folded."
-Another young bookkeeper of Gotham has
fallen iroin grace, his min having been caused
by inattention to busiuess and a disposition to
lead a "fast life." The youth's name is Still
son, and he has for a number of years been
employed as bookkeeper by the North British
and Mercantile Insurance Company, during
which time he had gained thc respect and con?
fidence of his employers. About eighteen
mouths ago he tell in with some bad com?
panions, who led him on, step by step, to his
ruin. Women, wine and gambling were in?
dulgences into which he plunged, and, of
course, the result was that his salary was In?
sufficient to meet the Increasing bills
which poured In upon him. As bookkeeper
of the British and Mercantile Insurance
Company, with unbounded confidence re?
posed in him, it was easy to supply himself
with the money of the company when his own
ran short. At first the false entries he made
were for comparatively small amounts, but as
his recklessness increased, the sums embez?
zled from the company became larger, till,
after eighteen months of a headlong down?
ward course, the total amount taken from his
employers, by means of false entries in the
books, amounted to $16,000. When accused
of the embezzlement, Stlllson frankly admitted
his guilt, but stated that neither he nor his
family was one cent the gainer by the frauds,
and that at the present moment he had not a
single dollar ol the money in his possession,
all of lt having been spent In the foolish
career he had been leading. Hitherto Still
I son has borne an Irreproachable character,
and is most respectably connected.
The Lust Dodge of the King.
The Scott King are developing a new idea
which is expected to atone for a host of
broken promises, and to encourage the
negroes to support "the patty" with the
blind unanimity which governed their politi?
cal conduct two years ago. Although the
Ring make a great pretence of desiring to
prove, to the satisfaction of au intelligent
public, that their administration has been
wise and honest, they do not, in reality, care
a fig for the opinion of any white citizen
outside of their own ranks. They hash up
a dish of arithmetical scraps, and declare,
with unblushing effrontery, that the State
debt is not what it is, and that taxes, all
things considered, are lower than ever be?
fore. But when their most ingeniously con?
trived statements are found to be wholly
fals? they are not disappointed in the lea3t
-they expect nothing better. Why, indeed,
should the Ring care for tho plaudits of the
whites ? Why should they desire to prove
to the tax-paying classes that every dollar
of the public money is honestly spent and
properly accounted for? They dread in?
vestigation; they do not court it. And, as
long as the colored people are largely in the
majority, the efforts of the Ring will be
directed to deluding the freedmen, rather
than to satisfying the judgment and reason
of the whites. The credulity of the colored
people, when approached by the Ring, 13
surprising, if not altogether Incomprehensi?
ble, and lt is to play upon their imagination
that the Scott overseers have worked out the
most ingenious of all their election tricks
and scheming. It is useless to talk to Scipio
Peters and Pompey Bones of comparative
expenditures and comparative taxation.
The chain of cause and effect, connecting
their progress with the financial condition of
the State, is too delicately fine for their ob?
scured vision. They require the concrete
argument of bread and meat, clothes and
homesteads, money and tobacco; and when
they are told that, if they vote for Scott,
they shall be paid for their work during the
two years and a quarter intervening be?
tween the declaration of emancipation and
the termination of the Confederate war, they
have before'llietn a flattering something
which all may understand. The land and
mules and homesteads, promised them four
years ugo, are still afar off. But the blame
of all this is cast upon the whites. The
pledge Unit they shall receive two hundred
and twenty-five dollars for each working
man, if they ali vote for Scott, is more tempt?
ing, with the masses, than the certainty of
steady work and regular pay. This is the
line of thought which leads the Scott Ring
to palm off the lust trick upou the colored
voters of the State. It is described in these
words, in u late issue of the Scott-Kadical
paper published in this city :
"For two years and a third the slaveholders
kept the colored people at work aller they
were virtually lree, and then drove them from
their plantations without paying them a penny
for their labor.
"Why is not the property of these men good
for the labor thus perlormed and yet unpaid ?
We hope that question will be tested in the
courts. 'The laborer I3 worthy of his hire,'
and Is entitled to his pay whether he works
voluntarily or by compulsion.
"We uuderstand that some of the best legal
minds in the country have this question under
consideration, and we are assured that steps
will be taken to compel these men to way for
the two years and more of labor hom the
negro alter he became a free man.
"Justice demands that some restitution be
made this rac* fur its long yea s of suffering
aud toil; ?iud as a man's property is always a
Hen lor bis workman, it will only be neces?
sary to prore the labor In order to get the
pay.
"Some people are insane enough to believe
Hie United States Government will some day
pay for i he property once held in slaves, but
our opinion is 1 hat. th first payment required
will be from the o'd sluv?-owners to their former
slaves for tic? years and upwards of labor not
yet requited"
To the white people of the State it is hard?
ly necessary to point out the fact that the
ratiii aiiou of the Thirteenth Constitutional
amendment was ihe true accomplishment of
the work of emancipation. The emancipa?
tion proclamation was declared by Mr. Lin?
coln himself to be a war measure, and in
the Hampton Roads conference be expressed
the opinion that, "u3 the proclamation was
"a war measure, and would have effect only
"fi'om its being an exercise of the war
ilpower, us soon as the war ceased it would
"be inoperative for the future; it would be
"held to apply only to such slaves as had
"come under its operation while it was in
"active exercise." Thfe view of the opera?
tion ol the proclamation was, also, taken by
Mr. Seward, and it is evident upon the face
of it ?bat, being only a military measure,
the proclamation had no effect npon the
status of the slaves beyond the limits of the
military power of the United States. When
the United States forces occupied a Southern
district, the slave3 in that district became
freedmen, and were entitled, as freedmen, to
payment for what services they, for pay,
rendered to their former masters. But in
law, as in fact, the colored people, outside of
the districts occupied or controlled by tho
United States forces, were as much slaves in
January, 18G5, as on the day, two years be?
fore, when, by the proclamation of Mr. Lin?
coln, they were declared to be free. We
may add that this view of the effect of a
military order, and of the limitation of mili?
tary power, has been accepted by the Su?
preme Court of the United States.
At the same time it must be admitted that
the new appeal of the Ring to the colored
people is a dexterous device for confirming
the faithful, and luring back the wanderers
from the Radical fold. It is expected to stir
up bad blood between the whites and tfie
blacks, lo make the colored people believe
tbat they have been robbed, and to persuade
them that the Scott Ring will make a speedy
restitution. It is of a piece with the declara?
tion of Senator Na3h, at Gadsden, that all
the property in the State rightfully belongs
to the negroes, and it bears out the adv ice
given to the colored people by Governor
Scott's bosom friend, Joe Crews-the man
who told his constituents to take what they
wanted, and, if they were dissatisfied, to
burn out the waites. The promise must be
brokea iu this case as ia the instance of the
historical forty acres and a mule. But,
surely, that such a pledge should seriously
be made, must encourage. the Reformers to
more arduous efforts, in order that a Reform
victory, next Wednesday tceek, may save
both whites and blacks from further decep?
tion and further extravagance and wrong.
Fraudulent Voting.
We are informed that several hundred
negroes have left Robeson County, N. C.,
within- the last few days, for the ostensible
purpose of working on railroads in this
State; also, that the impression is very gen?
eral that these "railroad hands" are moved
across the line that they may vole for Scott
and Bansier ai the approaching elections.
This information 13, we have every reason
to believe, exactly correct. The Bing can?
didates know that their prospects are ex?
ceedingly gloomy, and they would go almost
any lengths to obtain a few hundred outside
votes, it is advisable, at all events, that
the Reformers should keep an eye upon
every newcomer. A residence of one year
in South Carolina is the main qualification
of a voter, and every voter is required to
swear tbat he is duly qualified. This should
render it easy to detect any attempts at
fraudulent voting, as well as to make an
example of the offenders.
Preveution, however, in all these cases is
better cure. The Reformera must be upon
their guard.
TUE Scott Ring abuse the white people
of the State because every freedman is uot
as polished as Chesterfield, and as erudite
us Samuel Johnson. It is a poor rule that
will not work both ways. The Ring have
been preaching politics to the freedmen for
four yeats, uud the majority of them still
believe that the Reformers, when they win
the elections, can put the colored people
back iuto slavery. Either the Ring are
mighty poor teachers, or they don't preach
the truth.
TUE Constitution of the Uuited States
makes the colored man free, aud gives him
every right enjoyed by uuy other citizen.
No State, or party, eau put the colored peo?
ple back into slavery or strip them of a
single right. Besides, the Reformers admit
and affirm the civil and political equality o?,
all citizens of thc Stale, without regard to
race, color or previous condition. Is not
that aud HONESTY enough ?
GENERAL CONNER, in his Camden speech,
shows that the amount due II. H. Kimp
ton, according to the Comptroller-General,
ia $593,SG6, while according lo the figures
in Kim pion's account it is 3789,816 Here
is a difference of $19?,949 to be accounted
for by Mr. Neaglc or the cherubic Kimpton.
THE total value of Hie real and personal
properly in South Carolina, as valued for
taxation, is SlGS.000,000. Of this amount,
ninetcen-twentieths belong to the political
opponents of the Scott Ring. The issue
then is very plain. Every maa who desires
an economical administration aud low taxa?
tion must, if in his senses, actively support
the Reform party.
UNLESS Mr. Chamberlain explains the
mis-statements in his Chester arithmetic,
pointed out by General Conner, he must
stand convicted of wilful and deliberate de?
ception. And this will not improve his
chances of election to the Senate of the
Uuited States.
TUE present application of the adage that
"silence is golden" is, that the satellites of
the Scott Ring are paid so well for keeping
their mouths shut that they cau'l afford to
tell the truth.
THERE ure eleven hundred tax executions
in the bunds of the sheriff of Marion County.
Perhaps the unfortunate taxpayers were too
busy "to mix in politics." We trow that it
will not be so on Wednesday week.
MR. EMEN HA?S, of Marion, who lins
abandoned the Scuit parly und joined the
Reformers, announced, at a meeting held at
Berry's, on Saturday last, that, while a mem?
ber of the last Legislature, he saw such cor?
ruption as satisfied him that ihe Ring
would, if not checked, bring the Slate to
bankruptcy.
New Books.
THE WOMEN or ISRAEL. By Grace Aguilar.
2 vols. New York: D. Appleton ? Co. 1870.
This deservedly popular book is i.ssued in
cheap form by D. Appleton & Co., forming
a part of their ueat edition of Miss Aguilar's
works.
For sale by John Russell, Kiug street.
CONINGSBY; OR. THE NEW GENERATION. By
Benjamin Disraeli. New York: D. Appleton
&Co. 1870.
This, the freshest of Mr. Disraeli's epi?
grammatic novels, loses nothing by com
pinson with Lothair. Most of the critic?
now admit that Lothair might have been
less than it is, but should have been more,
and are inclining to believe, with the general
public, that Mr. Disraeli's last bantling owes
more to its author's fame than its own
transcendant merits. Coningsby and Vivian
Grey may stand upon their own strength,
but, without Mr. Disraeli's name, what
would become of Lothair! The Appletons
do the reading public a service in issuing a
cheap edition of the works of the ex-Pre?
mier. We owe to them this clearly printed
Coningsby. Price 60 cents.
