NEWS OF THEJ>AY. -Gold at New York yesterday closed at 10J. -The New York Cotton market closed heavy. Sales 3000 bales at loy,. -At' Liverpool, cotton closed flat; uplands 9a9,-id; Orleans 9<?a9Xd; sales 8000 bales. -Two balloons from Paris, with Ave passen? gers, were captured on last Saturday by the Prus? sians. The prisoners were taken to Versailles. -At a Ure in Albany, New York, a ladder on .which there were ten or twelve firemen, broke .and six of them were badly Injured. -The executive committee of the fair recently . held in New York for the benefit of the German wounded report the receipts to the 4th instant, at $72,948. -A German sympathy meeting was held at .Chattanooga Saturday night, and sundry ex-Fed .eruA and ex-Confederate officers made speeches en? dorsing the German cauBe. -Gesslp from the national capital has it that President Grant ls of opinion that Bazaine cer? tainly ought to have forced his way through the Prussian lines at Metz with such s fine army as that which was under his command. "I would have got out of the fix some way," were the words . used by the President. -The prize fight between Allen and Gallagher . took place yesterday near St. Louis. Only twenty five persons were present. Four or. Aye. rounds were weU fought, Allen getting flraui blood* and -winning with considerable ease. Gallagher -threw Allen fourteen times, but got In few licks, and came out generally bunged np. -Miss Charlotte Cushman, America's greatest actress, who has for several years pant been li vin g _a? SAIDA, orrivod tn No?r Ynrt, Ujr tho auiunui Scotia, on Thursday last. For years past she has been suffering from cancer. Her case has been pronounced by eminent physicians hopeless, and she has come back to end her days in her own country, and among her own rr ic nd 3. -The latest accounts from the West Virginia elec? tion demonstrate, beyond all question, that the Democrats and conservative men in that State have won almost everything they could wish. The spontaneous uprising of the people in this elec? tion repeals the odious registration law now in force, wipes out'all proscriptive Radical legisla? tion, makes the State permanently Democratic and insures the choice of a Democratic Doited States senator in place of willey, the present Radical incumbent. -Dr J. Marion Sims, a well-known surgeon of | this country, has lately returned from France, -where he was snrgeon-ln-chlcf of the Anglo -American ambulance corps, which has rendered good service to both Preach and Prussian Bol? dlers. In regard to reports concerning the de? clining health of Louis Napoleon, which have long been circulated, he says that the supposition that Napoleon is a decrepit old man ls a great mistake. His intellect was never more vigorous than at present, and his physical health is per? fect, with the exception of a few trifling taflrml ties. He is, occasionally subject to sciatica, bu; to no disease that threatens Ufe. Dr. Sims speaks of the Prince Imperial as a strong, rosy boy, in perfect health a:d very intelligent. The story of his being scrofulous ls pronounced entirely raise. The average physique of the Germans ls spoken of j as being superior to that of the French. Dr. Sims states that the French ambulance corps ls badly organized, that the surgeons' are often Incom? petent or neglectful, and that the suffering of the French wounded from neglect has been terrible. -Diamonds of great value and extraordinary .-richness bave recently been discovered on the Vaal River, in South Africa. So great ls the excite? ment for miles round that large numbers of tradesmen In adjoining cities and towns are dis? posing of their establishments at great sacrifice, and rushing to the diamond fields. A correspon? dent relates that one of the shopkeepers who went early to this African Golconda returned to 1 als home, after an absence of only fifteen days, bri D gm g with bim a pocket full sf gems. In Hope Town a magnificent diamond cr thirty-six karats bxs been dog up. One "prospector'1 tn six days succeeded in purchasing not less than four han? dled of the gems, among which was 00c of forty karats, and of such beauty tl.at the Qu jen of all the Russlas might be proud to wear it. The largest diamond found weighed one hundred and eight karats and was valued at ?100,000. One geaf taken out weighed a fraction over eighty three karats, and was sold for ?11,200, after passing through several hands, and being subjec xd to much conflicting criticism. Found, as lt was, by a stupid native boy on the surface or the ground, and mistaken by him for a worthless though pretty stone, the discovery of its real value created tremendous excitement. -The steamer Idaho, of Williams A Guion's line, arrived Friday evening at New York, from Liverpool, after a tempestuous voyage, bringing two hundred and ten Papal zouaves, who, now that the temporal power ot the Pope is at an end, are returning to their homes in Canada. In the beginning of thc present year tight hundred or these men left Canada and sailed in the French steamships Perdre andjLarayette.for Europe. Most of them have seen some service. When Rome capit? ulated they were made prisoners, and were con? fined for twenty-three'days. They were ultimately paroled, and transferred by the Italian govern? ment to England, whence their passage has been paid by Canadian friends to this country. On the evening of then* arrival tb ey formed and marched from Castle 'Garden up Broadway to St. Peter's Church, where mass was said, and Father Quinn addressed the zouaves, welcoming them to New | Tork in the n?me of Archbishop McCloskey. Af? terwards the :-ouavea sang the verse of a psalm, and marched to the Astor House. A compilai en tary breakfast was served them next morning, prior.? their, departure for Canada. 'The zouaves were au young men, of fine military ma? terial, and very Intelligent and well-bred in as? pect. Some of them belong to wealthy Canadian faraMeB, and all have received good educations. One of the zouave offlcors gave the number of the late Papal army at twelve thousand men, the mass of vf hom were italians of the Papal States. The zouaves numbered three thousand, and were composed of Canadians, Dutch, Belgians and French, Including a few Irish, Germans and EnglUh. -The latest bulletin about "the double baby" Is the following from au Ohio correspondent: "The baby or babies, child or children, just as jou see fit to call lt or them, was In the arms of a nurse. Some twelve or fourteen were In the room at thc time, and from each au admission fee of one dot lar was collected. The curlosry at first was cry? ing at both ends. The nurse administered some kind of body food to lt at each end, which seem? ed to give it satisfaction; and one end dropped to sleep, while the other end was awake; then that end woke up, and the other end went to sleep. (Where the word ead is used, the reader can sub? stitute head, If he prefers it.) It ls too week's old to-day, and seems to be In as good health as any baby could be at that age. AU the different parts and organs or this body, or these bodies, seem to be performing duty in a proper way, and the indications now are that this chap or these chaps will Uve, if not killed by showing and handling them. When the child was two days old, one 0. C. Brown entered Into a contract lu writing with the parents, by the terms of which the parents agreed to travel with him and exhibit the curiosity under his direction and manage? ment for the sum of Arty dollars per month Brown to defray all expenses. If the child died, B. to have the body for a certain sum. This con? tract the parents repudiate and reruse to per rorm. They have taken legal advice, and say it ls void and worthless, and pay no attention to Mr. Brown. On the other hand, Brown maintains that the contract Is good and binding In law, and ir the parents will not perform it voluntarily, he can compel them by the aid or the courts. The result will probably be a big lawsuit. The Columbia Conference. We look forward with great interest to the conference of the representatives of the Re? form party to be held in Columbia this week. The elections being over, it may be deemed proper to issue an address to the people, ex? plaining the lessons of the past and counsel? ling such action as may seem best calculat? ed for the preservation of good order and the ultimate redemption of the State. In our judgment it is wise, as we have already said, to reaffirm the principles of the Reform party, and to make no attempt in the future to win, by fresh concessions, the bulk of the , negro vote. The conference alone, however, can determine what its own policy, and that of the Reform party, shall be. And neither THE NEWS, nor any other journal, has the right, or professes to have the power, to foreshadow the views of the conference, or to bind the action of the party. The Re? form party must speak for itself, through the conference, and we shall then know, and not before, what plan of action it is determined to urge upon the people of the State. The Vote. According to the official report of the Board of State Canvassers, as stated by a Columbia correspondent pf THE NEWS, the total vote cast, at the State elections of the 19th ultime, was 134,579, of which the Radi? cal candidate for Governor received 84,475 votes, and th<i Reform candidate 50,104 votes. At the constitutional elections of 1868 the total vote was 97,846, and at the election for Governor 92,750, but in the Presidential election, two years ago, the en? tire vote wa3 108,153. The vote cast last month is, therefore, 26,426 votes in excess Of the hi?hpflt- vote evor botara a?at in thia State. According to the census taken last year, the total number of voters in the State was 148,716, viz: 59,301 white and 89,415 colored; so that, assuming that every vote was deposited by a person qualified to vote and who had not already voted, (which is con? trary to both knowledge and belief, ) there were 14) 000 voters who did not go tb the poli?. Making allowance for the repeating and bal? lot-box stuffing, which the Radicals are known to hare practiced, it is probable that 20,000 legal votes were not brought out by the stirring canvass of 1870. These figures make one point clear, viz: That the white strength, while steadily increasing, is not yet fully polled, and that the colored people are not, as was suggested, disposed to re? frain from exercising the privilege of the suffrage secured to them by the laws of this State and of the United States. In future elections, therefore, where the canvass is active and thorough, the whites and blacks will, poll within, ten or twelve per cent, of the full'legal vote. The entire number of votes cast for Judge Carpenter, the Reform candidate for Governor, was 50,104. This is the highest vole ever cast io the State in opposition to Radicalism. Against the constitution of 1863 only 27.28S votes were polled, and in the same year the Democratic vote was only 45,237. The anti-Radicals have gained, therefore, in round numbers, 5000 votes since the elections held two years ago. At that time the lines were plainly drawn be? tween Radicalism and Democracy; the Dem? ocrats offered the negroes nothing more than a qualified suffrage; the Democratic plat? form declared that the Reconstruction acts which were then the guarantees to the freed? men that they should be the political equals of the whites-were "unconstitutional, revc "lutionary and void." With all these draw? backs the Democratic party polled only 5000 votes less than are polled in 1870 by the Reform party-which makes no political is? sue, which recognizes the civil and political equality of whites and blacks, and which de? clares that the amendments incorporated into the State and Federal constitutions, since the war, are accomplished facts, hav? ing the force and obligation of law. The Reform party, was supported by the white people, as a body; it was led and defended by the ablest of our younger statesmen and by the soldiers whom the State most honors and trusts. The platform of the party gave the colored man a guarantee of all his rights and privileges; colored men help? ed to define that platform ; colored men were candidates for office on the county tickets ; the two races worked together, as it seemed, with the one object of obtaining a capable and trusty represen? tative government for the State. The result i3 a gain of 5000 votes in the year, while the Radical party, in the same period, gains more than 20,000 votes. The Radical vote at the Presidential election in 1868 wa3 62, 916; it now is 84,475. Up to this point we are treading on firm ground and draw plain conclusions from un? mistakable facts. When we go further we can only estimate and surmise. Neverthe? less, we venture the expression of the opin? ion that the vote at the elections, whose re? sult is about to be officially declared, estab? lishes these facts: L That the few whites who disapproved of the Reform movement did not vote on either side; 2. That the Rad? ical party, in the past two years, have gain? ed no white strength of consequence, but hold the negroes as tightly as they did in 1868; 3. That thetnas?es of the white people of the State may be relied on to support any honest conservative movement in the inter? ests of justice and good government; 4. That the increased negro vote obtained by the the Reform party i3 not commensurate with tlie concessions made to the negroes, and with the efforts used to gain their vote3; 5. That under any circumstances, and under any name, the bulk of the freedmen, who voted the Reform ticket, will vote with the party which has the countenance of the whites whom they know and trust; 6. That the Reform party was beaten, on the State ticket, by a nearly solid negro vote, and not by fraud and intimidation. Upon these pre? mises we base our conclusion that, while we still maintain the principles embodied in the Reform platform as being just and right, and while WE WILL WELCOME AND PROTECT ALL GOOD COLOl'.ED MEX, WHO PROVE THEIR FIDEL ITT TO THE CAUSE OF PURITY AND TRUTH, We should make no further attempt to pander to the negroes, and should organize thoroughly and systematically, so that we may be pre? pared for the next political contest, and be ready, . at all times, to defend the rights guaranteed to the white race, no less than to the negroes, by the Constitution of the State. _ The Faithful Few. The interior newspapers are outspoken in their commendation of "the faithful few" colored men who had the intelligence and courage to vote the Reform ticket at the late elections. Of these colored Reformers good care will be taken. They should have the preference in business ; they should have the first choice when servants are to be engaged; they should be assisted and encouraged in all their undertakings. Some of them may, it is true, have joined the Reform party, be? cause they thought it would pay; these are known, and they are not many. The others have done faithful service to the State, and will find the white race firm friends and staunch protectors. Soot ano Sonnb.

THE MARION FIRE ENGINE COMPANY Propose, oa the 7th day of December next, to give A GRAND BALL AT THE ACADEMY OF MUSIO. Thc object of the Company ls to relieve Itself from the pressure of debt, so that Its service to the community may be rendered more free and efficacious. The pay of the Department has been rednced, and the nsnal resource for discharging necessary expenses has thus been greatly limit? ed. The members of the Company give their services, which are not free from risk, very cordially, and they make liberal contributions themselves; but they cannot sustain the burden that ls upon them in the purchase of their Steam Engin? and their current- expenditures, without aid from those who derive the whole benefit of the service. . The Marlon Fire Company therefore appeal to the citizens to give them liberal aid in the pur? chase of Tickets, and in the countenance and support of their present enterprise.
