The real army and ersatz reserve viz., those below the regulation stature, who, however, are in general Quite St to take the field and are taller than the French-bas not been call? ed out. So far, therefore, from Prussia having Bow exhausted lier reserve forces, there are at least 200,000 men on whose services no call bas .been made. t.-At Metz the Germans are giving every Indica? tion of their intention to retain permanent pos? session. A strong poUce force has been estab? lished, and the posts' and judicial arrangements are not at all of a provisional character. An East Prussian regiment has been ordered to transpottaU its equipments and stores to Metz, as It will subsequently gairlson the place. Ger? man artisans and merchants are already begin? ning to sci tie there, and a considerable accession ls expected as soon as peace ls concluded. On the other hand, many well-to-do French resi? dents announce their intention of selling their property and leaving the city whenever lt ls ceded to Germany. -The London Times' correspondent at Berlin writes: "As for General Trochu's supposed In? tention to retieat to Mont Valerien and some Other forts, and there hold out even arter the sur? render of the city, the Germans will not permit him to carry lt out.' For the capitulation of Paris io be accepted lt must include the city and the forts. Until the whole or the metropolis, with all Its ramparts and redoubts, ls given over, the In? habitants wil! ba doomed to hunger. The task of reducing Mont Valerien wUl devolve upon the Pa? risians, not upon the Germans. It would cost the latter many lives; the former win have to con? vince their commander-in-chief that France can? not be benefited by condemning Paris to starva? tion. Napoleon III continues to be treated with ?very mark of attention. With the heavy fall of j snow which has occurred In all Germany, some | sledges have come to him straight from the Royal .stables at Berlin." -.From MarsetUes comes a note or alarm. A -correspondent writes: *'We begin to have a very anxious time here. The rich are now alarmed for the poor, as we are now without magistrates or police, so that ir any one knocked jon down In the streets, you could get no redress. The rich k entlemen are having meetings to make arrangements for giving assistance to the poor. People here who have hitherto kept seven or eight servants, aro.-now keeping three or four only. AU the marchants are losing dally, and there are great rears of an insurrection if Paris ls taken. The French were absolutely mad a for night, ago. It waa one of tue most exciting days I have ever seen. At 1 o'clock lrPthe morning the cannons began firing, news having come that the French army had left Para, and driven the Ger mana-oat of ; Versainas, and as far as Fontaine? bleau, Ali. <Uy long bands of. music p traded the street^anctihe- people sang-'the .Marseillaise. At nightt^.wholo.towa was Illuminated, though the snow was falllag and-lay two Inches deep. Two days afterwards the news was contradicted, .and despondency has prevailed, but one dare not say to a French person that Paris win ever capi? tulate." -The death of Baron SalUard, a distinguished Frenchman, ls announced. At the time or the surrender of Sedan the Baron was director of the ministry of foreign affairs, and was especially noted for his honesty and frankness. lu 1466 he went to Mexico, by order of the Emperor, to ac? quaint Maxtmiii.ni with the determination of Na? poleon to withdi aw the auxiliary army of Mar - shat Bazaine. In 1887 be was sent io Rome to give notice ci the removal of the French forces ^from italy. Both of these troublesome missions _wexe sattsractortjy conducted. Alter thc fall of -thc gov ern ni" nt fee remained ld Paris. He ltd his battalion, the first of the Mobiles or the Seine, on ."the 2ft of December to the attack of Epernay, near 8t. Denis;' Here he was wounded in the right arm, i-ut kept his horse until a ?-ecoml hall disabled bis left arm. As he was being lined from the saddle a third hall struck him In the groin, and while being carried to the rear a fourth ball struck him In the left side of the neck, coming ont near the opposite should- r, proving that he was a conspicuous mark for the enemy's bullets. He lingered for several days in great agony, and ?lied lu an ambulance at the office of foreign af -falrs. -An exhibition of patchwork is now open In New York. The managers have issued an appeal to the wives and daughters or the country tu con? tribute patched cast off clothes for the destitute ?of the city, and bave offered premiums to those who excel In the art of putting a patch bu. More than 1300 garments have been sent In for coat peti? tion, and they represent the value of about S1300. 'Nearly aU the garments areof woollen fabric, and comprise a great variety of clothes for male and female wear.

The contributors numbered 453, and are from twenty-eight dif? ferent States and territories. Several interesting specimens have been received, such as a pair o' long stockings with one hundred holes darne J, and a very good cloak marked as follows : "Tals cloak ls made or four pairs or old pants, one old vest and two old coat linings. It is compos ;d of sixty-eight pieces. 1 made lt in two days, r.nd it was worn for three years to public school and I hope it will keep some other darling war n three yeare more. Mrs. McParker, Washington, Ind." It was awarded the first prize. The exhibition will be open to the public for three days, arter which all the garments will be turfed over to the Five Points Mission Tor distribution. -Thc nomination or General T. P. Blair for sen? ator. In the caucus or the Dcm >cr.its or the Mis? souri Legislature, was ratlfjd by acclamation amid great cheering. The doors were thrown open and the hall speedily filled with an enthusi? astic crowd, to whom General Blair made a speech in his best vein. He referred to the fact that, four years ago, he had been designated for this very term in the senate by the Democrats of the Mis? souri Legislature, and announced his Intention of carrying out the unchanging principles of the3e friends. He said: "I am a Democrat, and I am also a Liberal. Upon the platform which was an? nounced in onr recent election, and which gave back to Missouri her liberty and her freedom upon that platform I stand with all men who will stand with me. Now, for the flrst time in many years, the people of Mis sourl have had the choice of their own sen ?tors, and when they have had the choice or their own senators, they have been m> n respectable and men Illustrious for their deeds In the national council. I may not hope to rival them in their brilliancy or in their ability; but I will endeavor, with a heart full of gratitude, to rival the best of them In my devotion to the people of this state, ar.d to my country." In his further re? marks, General Blair urged a forgetfulness or past Issues and differences, and an earnest endeavor to perform the duty of the present, to aid tho citi? zens ot the Southern States to gala their liberties, which we have secured. He denounced thereat monopolies which "have sapped the life-blood of the West," and presented the necessity of an alli? ance with the South for their defeat. His speech was enthusiastically rt calved. Kaiser Wilhelm. King William accepts the Imperial Crown, with the prayer that God will vouchsafe to the Fatherland a future of independence, happiness and lasting peace. Salve Im perator! :_ Now and Then. It is hoping against hope when we expect any regard for the interests of the Common? wealth on the part of the ignorant and ma? licious Radicals who practically control tbe legislation of the State. Before the elections there were none so loud in their denuncia? tion of extravagance as those who now squander the public money with headlong speed. They pledged themselves, as a party, to tbe reduction of taxation and the curtailment of expenditures, declaring that they would retain in office no man who was incompetent or corrupt And the assevera? tions of the Radical leaders did produce some effect upon the public mind. The Radicals were not successful merely because they promised reform, but without their promise of-better things their majority would have been less than it is. They went into offlce bound by public and private obligation to a policy which should be liberal, economi? cal and just; and what is the result? Governor Scott has kept bis word. He has refused to be browbeaten by the inso? lent negroes who strive to stir up dissension and to array the blacks against the whites. He has dared to tell the truth, although the party whip is cracked over his bead. And we bave good reason to believe that Gover? nor Scott sets his face steadily against any act which savors of extravagance and fraud. This, so far, is the record of his second term of office. How is it with the Radical majority in the General Assembly ? They have wasted time and money ia buf? foonery and childish folly. They have ne? glected the interests of labor and of educa? tion. They have shown promptness and en? ergy-in raising the State tax from five mills to nine, aud in reviling and abusing thc white people of the State. Investigation committees aro demanded, which will serve no other parp?se than to Mil the pockets of their members. An impeachment trial is hatched up, in order to prolong the session and to gratify party spleen. From the ma? jority there is not beard a single word on the side of frugality and fair dealing. They look upon the State as fair game, and lose no opportunity of turning a speculative penny. Fifteen-hundred dollar chandeliers, eighteen dollar spittoons, Brussels carpets, and brocade curtains, adorn their legislative chambers and committee rooms; and in thc meanwhile the people at large are poorer and loss able to bear the burden of debt and taxation than they were when the smoke curled cp from the ruins which Sherman had made. It is a carnival of waste. And, to cap the climax, we are assured that one half of the legislative appropriation of $135,000 is improperly spent and gone-nobody knows where. In no instance have the Radical majority even spoken of keeping the pledges made before the election. They are iu power for two years, and apr?s nous le d?luge ! No wonder is it that the credit of the State sutlers-that the financial agent rinds it difficult to borrow more money, %nd that the bankers who hold the State bonds as collaterals clamor for the repayment of their loans. Thc prospect is gloomy enough the rift in the cloud is hard to find. The only hope is in sustaining Governor Scott in his opposition to waste and party violence. There are indications already that the conservative people will give bim all the moral and material support they can; and without such support he certainly cannot hold his giouud. As long as Governor Scott acts, writes and speaks fairly, temperately and honestly, he should be encouraged by tbe approbation, and fortified by, the weil doue, of every respectable citizen. We are more than politicians-we are citizens of South Carolina, depending for onr success upon the prosperity of the State. Any man, whatever his party, who works for South Carolina-who strives to check extrava? gance, to expose fraud, and to repress parti? san feeling-is, and must be, the friend of all our people. Such a man, we trust, is Robert Kingston Scott TUE Yorkville Emjuirer, speaking of the efforts making by the extremists to send a militia force to the up-country, says: "Ao "cording to oar information, the Governor "ls pursuing a wise course, and we hope "that he will stand firm, despite the clamor "of those who seem to prosper only by tur "bnleuce and the engendering of strife be? tween the blacks and whites." . Tho Rirai af Cotton. Tho new textile plant, ramie, is beginn io j to attract considerable attention from both, agriculturists and manufacturers. In China and Japan, where it was first grown, the fibrous bark was separated from the woody portion of the plant by hand; it in this country, where labor is infinitely more ex? pensive, Buch a.thing could not be thought of. Hence, though the plant was found to be suited to our soil and climate and pro? duced abundantly, the culture was not ex? tended, because of the want of machinery to place it in a proper condition for manufac? turing uses. But even when that difficulty was overcome by the construction of suitable machinery, another waa encountered in the fact that the mills for spinning cotton could not successfully operate on a fibrous product with so long a staple, and the quantity of J the new textile offered was not sufficient to warraut a change in the character of the machinery employed. To meet this condi? tion of affairs it became desirable to reduce the length of the ramie fibre by artificial ap? pliances, at least of such portions of it as wore intended to be worked up in cotton mills. By an attachment to ?the ramie cleaning machin?s this has been success? fully accomplished, and long staple or short staple ramie can now be produced at will. Considering the great value bf the new tex? tile, the large quantity which can be pro? duced per acre, and the facilities now avail? able to. prepare it for market, we look for a large increase in its culture during the pres? ent year._ THE Camden Journal says that Governor Scott's special message "will be received by "all good citizens as indicative of a desire on "the part of the Governor to do justice lo "our people, and he will be heartily assisted "in bis efforts to conserve the peace by the "arm of civil authority by all who love the "quiet of South Carolina." The Journal adds : "When we see indications of a senso of Jus? tice towards all the citizens of the State by the Executive or any other branch of the govern? ment, we are ready to meet them half way. While the message may be, and doubtless Is, a deserved rebuke to the extremists of the Re publican legislators, it ls the first glimmer of J hope which our silently suffering people have been vouchsafed, abd as such we welcome it; and we are sure that we represent the true sentiment of all good citizens, when we de? clare our purpose to aid lu bringing about, by every means in our power, a good understand? ing between the Governor and hitherto much and wrongfully abused whites of the State." ACCORDING to the Lexington Dispatch, one of the largest colton dealers in Colnmbia thinks that bis patrons cannot plant more than half as much colton this year as last. The main cause of this is the low price of J cotton. Throughout the whole State, the Dispatch says, there will probably be much less cotton planted. In many cases farmers and planters cannot pay for the fertilizers used last year, nor for agricultural supplies furnished in the way of provisions during 1870. Hence labor ought to be cheaper this year. Last week laborers were seeking em? ployment in the lower part of Richland at fifty dollars per year and provisions. THE Greenville Mountaineer concludes its comments upon Governor Scott's special message with these words: "In the stand "which Governor Scott has taken in this "matter, he has fallen under the ban of tbe "more violent of his own party; but he de-1 "serves and will receive the commendation "and support of all good men of the Slate, "of whatever party." _.financial.
