Tue farts, condensed, are as fol ows: A few days apo a flrilhant wedd ng ?as solemnized In one of the fashionable chm chea. The bride and bridegroom were well-known in society. The fo mer was ? connected with one of the leading families, and the latter was an agreeabki kidle^ man. at par? ties, receptions. Ac The pair had sp 'nt but a few days together, when -thc husband, after an interview with his v?u?g wife, 1 which left her almost craze 1 In. mind, ir.ittiy called ax. tis late baouel r rooms, which . he had not yet given up, burned a large number 1 of pqpers, pucked up a few precious arti l s. a <<\ j suddenly disappea: ct, and no one of his friends BOW knows where he'ls to b? found.,'ROT oiie dreadful truth reached their ears ?ooqittckly, and 1 that was that the man had already been several I yean married, sod.Ii ad several children. He still supported and visited them, and on the very day of the second marriage, at noon, he made them a long visit ia hl3 u^ual manner. For several yean the mia was an Internal revenno officer, and lat? terly had been employed In a down town bank. -The American Colonization Society held its fifty-fourth annual meetlnz in Washington, D. C., on Tuesday evening. The report or the managers states that the r eel pt? of i he society daring 1870, including a balance of $1048 from the preceding year and $3242 from investments, amounted to $10,652, and that the expenditures were $39,962, leaving an unexpended balance ta the treasury of $700. The report states that unless the con? tributions to the rumls or the sootety be Increased emigration will have to be contracted-a fact es? pecially to be regretted at this time, when num? bers ef persons or color desire to be sent to Africa. The society's ship Golconda sailed on November 4th, 1870, with one hundred and four emi? grants to Liberia, the company being largely made up of families, and being liberally provided with clothing, bedding, farming tools and other useful art cle?. Tho nember of persons colonized since the close of the war, or after 1864, amounts to 2688. The whole number sent out by the socie? ty since its organization, ls 14.574, and the num? ber or recaptured Africans furnished with an a*?ium in Liberia ls 5722, making a grand total of 20,296. Several hundred colored persons have made application to the society to be sent to Liberia, among whom aro twenty-six native Afri? cans, who, la December, isl?, were landed at Savannah, Ga., by the cerebrated yacht Wander? er, and were immediately taken to a plantation near Mobile, Ala., where they have since resided. Lyccuma and Lectures. A republic is the noblest field for the lec? turer and the essayist. They are popular educators, the importance of whose work is gauged precisely by the secalar activity and political power of those whom they influence. For, in such a case, the need of instruction is urgent, while the time that can be devot? ed to intellectual re reation and culture is very short. The i'.?ople need to know, a thousand things which they have no leisure and little inclination to master by the slow processes of study. And, therefore, they have reason to esteem the teacher who con? denses and reproduces the results of study who interrupts the monotony of practical life with passages of trath and beauty-03 a public benefactor. We regard the lyceums and other literary clubs, established for the maintenance of popular lectures, as well worthy of encour? agement. We cordially commend those in? stitutions because they are doing, however anob3trueively, a great work, and are sup? plying, not without self-sacrifice, a great necessity. And among the institutions we take especial pleasure in saying a good word in behalf or the Cheraw Lyceum, which will celebrate its ?fteerjth anniversary cn the 22d day of February. Tho first lecfure before this society waa delivered by toe lamented W. Gilmore Simms, who, ever after, regarded it wilh animated interest, as a model institution. A course oflectures has been secured during every subsequent year, with the exception of the two years immediately aft or the war, when the exercises were suspended on account of the want of a room, the lyceum hall having been sent heavenward to be out of the way of Sherman's arm}'. From time to time, lec? tures have been delivered by some of the ablest and most distinguished men in our State and from North Carolina. The" plan has been never to Invite second-rate men, bat to summon to the desk persons of posi? tion, of learning, of oratorical power, or of public Influence. In this way the lyceum bas obtained reputation, and it has been es? teemed by some as a compliment to be in? vited to lecture before it. The list of lectu? rers for this year, as reported to us by the chairman of the Executive Committee, dis? plays the traditional policy of this admirable um ?tution. It is as follows: Right Rev. P. N. Lynch, D. D., Charleston; Hon. Jas. jhesnut, Camden; Rev. D. McQ'ieen, Sum? mer; Hon. John E. Carew, Charleston; Rev. Whitefoord Smjth, D. D" Spartanbcrj;; Right Rev. Thomas Atkinson, D. D., Wil mlnglou; Hon. John A. Inglis, Baltimore. The course conducted by such men cannot Fall to be deeply interesting. We wonk! be rejoiced if, by this little no Lice, we could direct the attention of our people to an Important subject. In these iayl of depression and hard work, we need jome relief from'the pressure bf material In? terests-some recreation that shall instruct while it entertains-some pure pleasure to quicken, the iotelleot and stir the, blood. And we know'nothing better for this pur? pose than the institution of lectures under he patronage of literary associations in the furious cities and towns of our State. If londhcted with the prudence which has con rolled thc Cheraw Lyceum, such an under? taking could not fail or success. And it would be, beyond all question, of the great? est public benefit. General Trochu's V< w Plan. The newspaper correspondents have fully described General Trochu's "new plan," as it ?3 called, and ure ready with a host of inge? nious arguments in support of their opinion that ihe withdrawal of the army of Paris to ?he entrenched camp around Mont Valerie ri would be a woeful embarrassment to the Germans, and muke Paris u burren prize 2osting more than it ls worth. King Wil? liam's objective point is thc capture of Paris and the army which hus defended lt so long ?ind well. Unless lie caa take the army ihe eily is of little military value, and if tho army retreat to Fort Valerien it cannot he tnken. At present General Trocha is em? barrassed by the necessity of providing food nf some sort for two million mouths. In the enln-nched camp he "wi ll have only two hun? dred thousand tuen to feed, and lie muy take wl:h him all the food In Paris, leaving to the (?errnuns Hi? task i?f furnishing raliotis tn the people of tho eily. Fort V;i!?rien, also, commands Paris, and if the Germans do n:>t behave themselves. General Trocha oan bombard them until they mend their ways or beat a hasty retreat. This is the new plan which the war correspondents have build.'fl apon the rumor that supplies ure pouring into the works constructed around Fort Vul?nen. . The Idea is Ingeni?os, but lt is doubtful If lt have any other merit. A citadel may be of immense use if the fortress of which lt is the key be actively, besieged, for when the main works have been made untenable the garrison, instead of standing an assault, can retire to the citadel, and may force the be? sieger to recommence siege operations in ardor to take lt. But in a fortress simply blockaded the case would be different. Sup? pose a large part of Trochu's liest troops to >e moved into the entrenched atop and josilion at Val?rien when Paris wus at its I last gasp, there "would.then be a command? ant of Paria and a commandant at Vale rien. The commandant or Paris offers, wc will as same, to surrender the city, not including Valerien. Would the Germans accept it? Motz gives answer. King William would demand the unconditional surrender of Paris, of the forts and of ult the French troop3 In and around Paris. The demand would be rejected; the blockade would go on; Paris would be exhausted of supplies; still the Germans would refuse to receive the surren? der of Paris without the capitulation of Val?rien. Trochu could not allow the Pari? sians to starve, and so he would be com? pelled to give up Val?rien. This is so ob? vions that General Trochu need not take the trouble to describe the plan in his ladt will ano testament, as the war correspondents kindly suggest. Wo do not supposa that General Trocha dreams of leaving Paris to shat himself np in his new works. It is far more likely that he is preparing W.l?rien to be the basis of an extensive movement on the part of the be? sieged. The works in front of the fort have bef.n pushed oat until the line of investment is seriously threatened. From these works might pally out the forces destined to make thc third attempt to break through the cir? cle of fire. Supported by the heavy guns of tho fort, and receiving from the entrenched camp ample supplies of food ami ammuni? tion, the sortie might be made under special? ly favorable circumstances. This, we take it, is the true solution of the making and supplying of the entrenched camp around and in front of Mont Val?rien. Popular Support of Governor Scott. The anti-Radical press of the State, with? out exception, speak in deservedly high terrn? of Governor Scott's special message upon the troubles in the np-country, and from all sides come assurances that, if he will stand firm In hi3 opposition to violence and fraud, Governor Scott will receive the commendation and support of the white people of the State. The following extracts indicate the tone of the principal interior papers : [From the Lancaster Ledger.] We are not an admirer of the Governor's political course; but in so far as he acts for the welfare of the whole people we sanction those acts. We are pleased to note the conservative policy adopted by the Executive la the set? tlement of these difficulties. [From the Anderson Intelligencer.] Governor Scott has administer i just re? buke to that reckless spirit which seems to have animated the leading members of the House ot Representatives, In demanding mar? tial law and an equipment of the militia as remedies tor these unfortunate troubles. Let Governor Scott have the nerve to do what was promised two months ago, and when the militia arms are safely deposited In the State armory, the best and most influential citizens all over the "up-country" will more readily support and maintain bis efforts to.protect the person and property of the most humble citi? zen. Until this menacing cause ls entirely re? moved, Governor Scott must chiefly rely upon his State officials, and only receive a tacit sup? port elsewhere. [Frum tho Abbeville Press.] In the midst of the Legislative clamor at Co? lumbia calling for hasty and Ill-advised action, it is gratifying to dud the Executive assuming so conservative a policy, and arraying the power or the government In support ot the law. [From tm Barnwell Sentinel.] The late message of Governor Scott on tho "up-country troubles" ls admirable In Its tone and spirit, and administers a just rebuke to the lawless men In the Legislature, who seem anxious to bring on a collision. [Front the camden Journal.] The spirit and temper of the document ls highly commendable, and we do not hesitate to say that it will be received by all .rood olll zensas Indicative of a deslroonihe part of the Governor to do justice to our people, and he will be heartily assisted In his efforts to conserve the peace by the arm of civil au? thority by all who love the quiet of South Car? lina. [From the Ed?eoeld Advertiser.) The latest news Informs us that Governor Scott reluses to declare martial law In Union, Sparlanburg, ?c., because "all cases reported "ol violence are Individual, none having as "sumed the character bf public combina? tions against the law. Consequently they "are within the regular Jurisdiction of criminal "courts." Governor Scott ls right-minded this time at alt events. I From the Yorkville Enquirer. ] According to our Informal too, the Governor ?3 pursuing a wise oouriw, und we hope that he will stand Arm, despite tho clamor of those who seeui to prosper only by turbulence and the engendering of strife between the blacks and whites. [From the Oreen ville Mountaineer.] In the stand which Governor Scott h <s taken in this mutter, he has fallen uuder the ban of the more violent of his own party; but he de? serves and will receive the commendation and support; of all good mea of the State, ot what? ever party. [From the Union Times.] Governor Scott speaks boldly to the Infuri? ated majority of the Legislature, and if he will stand Arm In his present Independent and wise position, he will soon Hud thc true people-tho Intelligent, moral uud property owning portion ol'the State-gathering around and supporting him. He has taken steps in the tight direction, and we invite all good citi? zens to meet and encourage him. [From the Lmrensvljle Herald.] The Governor exhibited a lair and honest disposition to deal with things according to common sense aud Justice. Let oil HU ch efforts on the part of his Excellency be. met promptly and efficiently by all good and iruc men, to the end lhat peace may uccruo, and our coun? try again be prosperous. [From thu Wlnnahoro' News ] It 1M not only lu his effort to secure a proper administration ot' the law lhat Governor scott deserved commendation; the correspondent of j the Charleston NKWS tulls us that he now stands the only faithlul guardian of the treasury, and that the ahuse he is now receivlug within his own party is due to hlH t?nn resistance to schemes of dishonesty, robbery and plunder, to which he cannot be induced to give his con? sent. Is it so, then. Indeed, that in the re? election of Governor 8cott, the people of 8outh Carolina have been gifted with a blessing in disguise? ?osi ano Jenn* LOST, 19TH JANUARY, A PEARL BKO00H, with Diamond Centre. $6 wUl be Paid for its dellverv at li.
