There were several engagements recently on the Dominican fro ti tie rs. In one of these a gene ral, supposed .to B 3 Baez, -waa killed. A duel was fought at-Port-au-Prince between a Domi? nican and a son of the. Minister of Finance. Both were wounded. The country ls ripe for; revolution. -A Washington letter, of Monday, says : "-The courts of ihn district aro .now unusually destitute of cases of interest. The case of Hon. C. C. Bowen, charged with bigamy, in marry lng, whilb lila former wife, Mrs. Augusta Bowen, nee Hicks, was yet alive and undi vorced, was set tor trial to-morrow, but to-day X was Indefinitely posponed. --De Mortie, the octoroon, who married the - daughter of Downing, the colored caterer in Washington, baa determined to carry ta a higher court the suit he brought against Chicago restaurateur fpr expelling him and his wife from the premises, on account of, color. The last decision, lt will be remember? ed, allowed De Mortie only one cent damages .instead ot $2000, as. he claimed. --The Treasury Department has ad vices that little of the new loan has been taken in Erro pe, though negotiations were at one time I ? in. progresa which promised the absorption pf | j ?Hol it The tro ubi ea in France are- given aa the principal cacm for the failure Of subsoil p- ( lions, though our consul-general st Frankfort ^ writes tbat be believes all of the loan placed in the German market will be taken. Beere- 1 ..tar; Bout we il contemplates a change In the ' manner of negotiating these loans, and ls in New York In conference.with,leading financial men on the subject.. It ls probable that lt will be committed in future almost entirely to bankers in Europesad this oeuntry. Thus far lees lhaiififty mHHona of the five hundred mil? lions of fl vo perren t. bonds have been taken or exchanged. * V -With the .aproad of the anti-German League In Paris the feeling of animosity against the. Teutonic element ls taking practi? cal shape. In addiilen to tho refusal to em? ploy Germane lu any capacity, the shopkeep? ers seem desirous not to number the hated trans-Ktirnelander . ?moog their customers. Shops no longer display In their1 windows the familiar legend,"German Spoken Here." Not . single German paper ls takeu at the Grand Caf?, although newspapers of nearly, every Other country are freely provided lor custom? ers. The fact is, the German ls de trop In Paris, ?sd will be SQ for a long time to come. - Wae n shopkeepers refuse to take money and ab ? sol ute ly drive away patronage, Mien ls the mil? lennium of. patriotism come indeed-which . will not last long. -The demand for mvjqey to purchase neces? saries of lUe was. very great In Paris during tho Biege, and' the resources of the great p?wn broklngestablishments, or "MontsdePt?t?." were strained to the uimoet to answer to the calls made upon them. During the siege no person waa allowed to borrow over fifty francs, or ten douars, on any article; no matter what IIB value might be. As a consequence of this regulation, artistes of great value were pledged for comparatively insignificant suma, and the distress ot the upper biasses obliged them to 'part with Cashmere -shawls, valuable laces, di? amonds and jewelry, for the merest trifle. The ?storerooms of the"1 Tlorfte de Pi?t?" became en? cumbered with large quantities oj personal ap? parel of every description, gold-headed canes, riding whips, opera glasses to. the number.of lOOOj over 100,000 watches and 25,000 clocks. Starving seamstresses bad pawned 1500 pairs of scissors, and 2300 mattresses were put In .pledge. One of the methods adopted by the managers of the charitable fund raised in Eng? land for the relie! of the poor of France is the relemptlon of the tools pledged by the work? ing people. This plan not only relieves the poverty ol.this class, but removes the causes of ?complaint again Ht tbe government. -It is but a very lew months since two Im portant, reforms were introduced In the En? glish postal servtce. Newspapers were ad? mitted to. the post for one half-peony each, A r?daction or one half, and the system of postal cards, also to be carried tor a half-penny, was adopted. Now Mr. Monsell, the new post? master-general, hardly warm lo hin seat as yet has announced two other ohang?^T ateo of great advantage. The unit of weight for all letters and parcels, whether open or closed, is raised from bali an ounce to one ounce, and the charge tor all suoh leiters ls one penny. An additional ounce of weight adds only one half-penny to the portage, and above two .ounce* the additional charge ls but haifa perniy for each *two ounces. The rate fora letter weighing twelve ounces, th? limit for that class of postal matter, ls* therefore only fourpence. In the United States it would cost seventy-two cents to send such a letter. Hot" the least wise feature ol thia -?bange is the abolition of the absurd distinction between- open nr. cloded let? ters. The other chang - announced by Mr. Monsell was in the rales lor money-or? ders.' The old scale of charges was threepence for sums not exceeding two pound", sixpence for five pound* and under, ninepence for seven5' pounds, aud oue smlliug lor ten pounds. The new rates do not change these, except to in? troduce intermediate standards. 8ums under ten shillings can hereafter be sent by money orders fdr one ppjhny, one pound for twopenoe, and then an addition of one penny for each ad? ditional pound up to ten pounds, for which one shilling ia charged. These rates are not much lower than those in the United States for the same service, except that the minimum charge with us ls ten cents, which is the price for all money-orders of twenty dollars or less. Should, we conform to the English standard, a money order for two dollars and a half should be given for two cents. We give these details merely as a matter of curiosity and to excite the envy of our readers, for there ia little chance that we shall obtain any postal reform for a long time to come. -Tee Boston Board of Trade have passed resolutions, by a vote of 31 to. 25, in favo" ot an abasement of the tarin"on Imparts, and ally? ing articles of foreign production entering into the construction or needed for subsistence of steamers and sailing vessels engaged in foreign trade to be withdrawn from the bonded ware? houses free Of duty; also, authorizing the re? gistry of foreign vessels purchased by Ameri? can citizens, and urging preference to Ameri? can vessels in' the ocean mall service on the part of the government, Tbe South Carolina Railroad Company. The Directors of this Company have de? clared a dividend of One dollar a share for the three months ending March 31 last. This dividendes payable on and after tire first of May next. The South Carolina Rail? road Company is now .earning and dis tri b- ( uting regular quarterly dividends, which, at the present price of the stock, pay over fen per cent per annum on the money in? vested. The Cost of the Police. We hope the City Council will find it prac? ticable to reduce the cost of tbe police force. It is doubtless managed-with economy, and it muy not be wise to lesson the cost for each man. But $67,000 a year is more than this impecunious corporation; can allord to pay for police service, and half the present number of policemen will answer every pur? pose. The oity is astonishingly quiet. There is no apprehension here of a Ku-Klux raid perhaps because of the notorious purity bf the Charleston officials. It is the general belief, therefore, that for. $25*, OOO or $30,000 we can have just as maoy police as are indis? pensable to the' preservation of order. Will the Ci,ty Council try tbe experiment? This is the question asked by the groaning tax? payers. The Northeastern Railroad-A n n a a 1 Meeting. The report of the President of the North? eastern Railroad Company, submitted to the. annual meeting held yesterday, will be read with interest, we are sure, by both boBdhdiders and stockholders. It shows that there is a handsome increase in the gross earnings of the road, dud holds out 'a pleasant promise of a larger net income when the equipment of the road Is com? pleted, and its connections are made more available. There is a prosperous future before the road, and in the meanwhile ita revenue is expended with sound discretion l>y the President, A. F. Bavenel, Esq., and the General Superintendent, S. S. Salo? mone, Esq. To the careful and skilful management of these gentlemen is due the satisfactory condition of the road, as well ag ?he rapidity of its recovery from the embar? rassing losses of the war. WK 80AJUi . be glad if oar correspondents i viii make their letters relating to the Cri?is i u the State as brief as possible Already ; ve have been compelled te exclude - several raluable communications because of their treat length.- We want terse, pointed arti? stes, in which not 'a word ls wasted. For bose we can find room, and the public will itways read them. * Th? Necessity of Action. . The Columbia Phoenix takes the ground hat the deep feeling JU the State, in relation < o Debt and Taxation, cannot be ignored, . ind that, no doabt, the effort will be made 1 o ascribe this public-feeling to disaffection , o tho General Goverhmerft, so that the j J tuted States flag may be used as a mantle . v it h which to hide a multitude of sins. No nan-and we ali know this to be the plain ruth-desires to evade hie just contributions , 0 the support of the government. Tbe pub- j io only raise their voice and demand redress ind reform; a purification of tbe State, a re lnciion of expenditures, an instalment of ? ione8t and capable mea ia the place of dolts < tad knaves. Action is necessary, and upon Ais point the Phoenix says:, * "As to the specific form this action should , take? this ought. In our Judgment, to be left to i the calm and deliberate consideration ol wise and discreet citizens in convention assembled. I This may be said: The evils that exist demand 1 reform, and should be arrested before further 1 3am age. As to the remedy, this should be 1 practical and effective. Whilst wjs should take ' no positon that is untenable, we should, at , tbs same time, resolutely and firmly address ourselves to relief from the evils that sur? round us." These are prudent words. Theories will , not serve our purpose. We-want a policy > which shall be decisive and practical. Such 1 1 remedy may, we hope, be round About a Carpet-Bagger. . , The New York Neos prints the following pointed and sensible comments upon the posing action of Mr, DeLarge and MK Carpet-bagger Elliott upon the amnesty bin: . . ; "At this late day lt would be neither plea? int nor profitable to demonstrate the aoknowl- i ?dged truth that the Radical Congressmen from the Southern States represent neither 1 the intelligence nor the wealth of their res- 1 pective districts. It ls, however* a curious 1 circumstances that a 'negro carpet-bagger,.' ' true, io i he ins tl acts of bis class? should seize j the very fina opportunity ot proving himself (' a wholly unworthy spokesman of even his , own peculiar peen^. , "south Carolina has a liberal constitution. Np man is disfranchised. Wade Hampton ls ; as free to rote as one of his old negroes. There i ls, moreover, no (Hsqualidcatlon for office ex- I cept that Imposed by.the Constitution of the 1 United Slates. WVmay add that the temper 1 of the Santa Carolina colored people, who 1 have a vol in* majority of ?0.000, is thoroughly In favor of the enlranchlsement of every 'rebel' in the country. "Three of the Congressmen from ' 8outh Carolina are colored men. R. B. Elliott, the member Iron? the Third District, ls, to ase a ?'. 1 ? , x , j! ; common expression, 'aa black as the ace of spaces. ' nus negro carpet-bagger votes square? ly against Hr. Beak's bm, for. the removal of tho political disabilities imposed by the Four? teenth amendment to the Constitution of the United States.. . uBut among those who voted for Mr. Beck's bill-we find B. C. DeLarge, the member from the Second South Carolina District. Mr. DeLarge ls also a negro, but a native ot Charleston, South Carolina. He was a mem? ber of the reconstruction Convention of 1863, and served in the State Legislature, with con? siderable ability, as chairman of the committee of ways and means. Always acute and intel? ligent, DeLarge held his own with the colored people, and by his liberality of sentiment and' comparative honesty, secured the good will of the white people of the State. His district bas an overwhelming negro majority; he has the entire approval and full confidence of the South Carolina blacks, and he voted squarely for the removal of all the disabilities Imposed by the Federal Constitution upon the respect? able men of the South. In this, we' undertake to say, Mr. DeLarge expressed correctly the sentiments of his constituents and the wishes of the Southern people. "Mr. DeLarge, a native of South Carolina, takes ? manly stand on the side of amnesty. Elliott, an adventurous Northern negro, is the firm friend of proscription. This tells the whole story. A carpet-bagger ls always a car? pet-bagger, whatever the color of his skin. And when the issue ia fairly made between-the native and the prowling politician, the South will know where, and whom to choose." The New York News bits the blot We prefer to be. represented by white men ; bat While colored men sit ia Congress, and ia the State Legislature, to make laws and spend money, we are safer, by far, in the hands of a South Carolina colored man like.DeLarge, . than in those of a vindictive black carpet? bagger like the notorious Elliott The in? terests of Elliott are linked with the North, or with the West, or with Ethiopia. AU the interests of DeLarge- are connected with Sonto Carolina, and with the people of this State. It is true that .the native colored man has turned tail ere now, and may do so again ; but -from Congressman DeLarge we expect great things. That Little Bill. A Radical contemporary, ia allrrding to the bills for furnishing the Statehouse, as published in THE NEWS, remarks, with a boldness which entitles it to be read oat of "the party :" . . "The whole thing shows the most shame? less, the most infamous attempted use bf the, funds of the State. GovSrnor Scott righteous? ly vetoed the appropriation bill covering this business ot burnishing ;' and with anything like vigilance these outrageous 'items' can never pass. Some people, we -take lt will' haye to walt a good while for their money long enough, we trust to teach them the prop? er way of making ont bills when dealing with the State of South Carolina.n A CORRESPONDENT informs us that he lear oe, from a person who was present dur? ing the Chester troubles, that it wai the 'fall lateatioa of the aegroes to slay the whites, without regard to sex or age, had they been sueceeslul in routing them. The fight in Chester, we repeat vas & necessary and proper act of self-defence. The negroes were, as ever, the aggressors. THE Washington Patriot earnestly begs the white people of South Carolina to avoid a collision with the Federal troops. It argues, and justly, that if the army find every thing quiet there must be a reac? tion of popular sentiment which will clinch the doom of the cabal with whom the scheme of manu fae ta ring Southern outrages bad its origin. .fmural Notices.
