The case waa then erroneously retained in the cir- ] cult court for trial, and waa held over lor six month?, nnd^ then, when too late, was re? manded to the county court, where the pris? oner, by the action of the circuit court in hold? ing the case for six months, was deprived of, , his right of trial.

The Prince of Wales utterly refuses* to receive bis sister's hus? band as a member of the royal family, and at the state ball recently gave orders that Ihe Marquis should not be admitted at the royal entrance.

The Marquis would not j take the Princess in by the general public en? trance, and the result was that they did not j attend the ball. -The new minister plenipotentiary to'the United States from the North German Con? federation, Mr. E.

Mr. Schlozer was the Prussian minister at the City ot Mex? ico tul last March, when he sailed for Berlin to receive instructions previous to becoming j the minister of the German Empire nt Wush? ington.

These finally resulted, some two .months since, in the Inter? change ol curt diplomatic notes between Min? ister Curtin, of St. Petersburg, and the Czar. Information reached here to-day from that quarter which asserts positively that the Rus? sian Government has ordered the recall of M. Catacaey, the present minister plenipotentiary, to take effect at the earliest practicable mo? ment.. The ceremonies attending the recep? tion of the Grand Duke Alexis, in September, willbe?conflded to the care of the Bussian con? sul-general In New York. The differences re? ferred to have been materially widened durinc the recent arbitration of the well known Per? kins claim, and which has been decided ad? verse to the Russian minister, who represented his government in the premises. WilHamB: Huntington, cashier -of the First National Bank of this city, has just sailed for St Peters? burg to receive, as a trustee of the claimants, the amount due on said claim." A Bird of Passage. A well-known Republican of thia city writes to THE NEWS, over the signature of "Junina," protesting against die renomina? tion of Mayor Pillsbury; first, on the ground that he has been repeatedly false to hie party-which is a matter about which we cannot be expected to feel any special con? cern 5. and secondly, because, as "JuniuB" al? leges, Gilbert Pillsbury is no bona fide resi? dent of Charleston, but a mere itinerant ad? venturer. "Junius" makes these distinct charges: That our Massachusetts Mayor has never made a single permanent investment in Charleston ; that in 1868 to satisfy the letter, while dodging the spirit cf the sup? posed requirement that a candidate for Mayor, to be eligible, must own a certain amount of real estate, he accepted from' a notorious knight of the mortar and pestle in Ward 6 a conveyance of certain titles to real estate to the desired amount- that it was only when it was discovered thaw uo auch re? quirement was in force that the conveyance was cancelled; that in consideration of the good will evinced by the offer of the con? veyance, the soi-disant compounder of drugs now holds receipts for unpaid taxes on said property for several years previous, which taxes were then in process of collection by execution : and that this shameless robbery of the city was perpetrated, if not by the di? rect authority, at least with the open conni? vance of Mayor Pillsbury. "Juniua" further declares that he has himself repeatedly heard Mayor Pillsbury state that un less he were elected Mayor, Charleston would not be his home; and that on one occasion, pointing to a picture of a well-known building in Mas? sachusetts banging on tht wall in his private parlor, he exclaimed: "Yonder is my home, "if I urn -Weated.'" The pec?lo of Charleston, on Wednesday next, will put a period to the exile of the peripatetic philanthropist who now presides j over our municipal destinies, and the ides of j Novemb?r, we trust,, will see him safely "to hum" in the bosom of his beloved Bay State. As Others Sec Him ! The Columbia Union, a Radical journal, pays a high compliment to General Wag ener, the candidate of the Citizens' Party for Mayor .o? Charleston. It mya: There i3 no doubt that General Widener would make an excellent cv?cer, and wc lld do lust Ice to all classes. . . In another place 'tie ? '.Hon goes farther Ititi. Baying: We think General Wagoner is a first-rate ..nan, and we would a? seen vote for him as my oiher man in Charleston. A Conservative candidate, against whom Radical newspapers have nothing to say, may well be expected to defeat the Know Nothing Pillsbury. . Registration. Registration beginB to-morrow, and will be continued on Monday and Tuesday. The hours of registration on each day are from seven o'clock in the morning until five o'clock in the evening. No person who is not registered during the three days' named can vote at the city elections. Natu? ralized citizens when they go up to register must be prepared to produce their certifi? cates of naturalization. The managers will require every adopted citizen to show his naturalization papera before they allow him to register. Be In Time ! Register early. Do not pnt off the impor? tant work until the second or third day. There will be laggards enough at the last moment to make it difficult for all to regis? ter. Unless you register in good time you risk the loss of your vote. Go, then, to your polling precinct early to-morrow morning ] and regiater at once. Hunt Up Your Papers. Naturalized cit zens must produce their naturalization papors,' or they will not be al? lowed io register on VOTE. Any oitizen who has lo8t his papera should get them renew? ed at once in the United States Court. Un less he does thia he cannot take part in the good work of electing the Citizens'candi? dates for Mayor and Aldermen. Bear thia in mind ! What Naturalization Certificates are Valid. We beg to remind the adopted citizens of Charleston that all certificates of nalurali zation issued by the State Courts, atr any time, are good; also all certificates issued by the United States Court; also all certifi? cates of tlie Oily Court PRIOR TO EiC II TEEN HUNDRED AND FIFTY-SIX. Only those certiri catea i38ued by the City Court since Decem? ber 20, eighteen hundred and fifty-six, are worthlesa. Bally to the Front. A prominent Radical, and would-be City Father, has been heard to say that the en? tire Know-Nothing ticket shall be elected, if every negro on James Island hos to be reg? istered and voted. Let our working com? mittees rally on our water fronts and watch the movements of the enemy. CAN Gilbert Pillsbury deny that in the election reports printed by the Know Nothing newspapers in November, 1854, he ls written down as the victorious champion of tho Know-Nothing Party? Cotton-The Prospect for ihe Coming Toar. The'agricoltural year, about closing, has been remarkable for its' immense cotton pro? duct, which will probably sum np about 4,150,000 bales, and is the largest crop ever grown, excepting that of 18.59-60, which was 4,669,770 bales. It also6liowB the largest increase from year to year of any previous growth, being an excess ol about 1,000,000 bales over the previous season, the total of which was 3,154,946 bales. This sudden in? crease has its parallel in two previous peri? ods in the South ; and in both cases after the maximum was reached, a large falling off took place in the succeeding yield. These instances were as follows: Ia 1846-47 the growth was 1,778,651; in 18*7-48, 2,347,634; in 1848-49,2,728,596, and declined in 1849-50 to 2,096,706 bales; in 1857-58 the growth was 3,113,962; in 1858-59, .3,851,481; ill 1859- 60, 4,669,770 bales, and declined in 1860- 61 to 3,656,080 bales; in 1868-60. the growth was 2,439,039; in 1869-70, 3,154,946; in 1870-71 about 4,150,000 bales, and pro? bably the product ol 1871-72 will not exceed 3.250,000. The heavy increase In the yield of the past year caused a great decline in the prices, and while middling uplands (crop of 1869-70) were disposed'of in this ?narket-at ?7j@33c ?*# Tb., the crop just marketed was sold at 13?@20c. "$ ft-> making a dif? ference so large as to prevent any chance of profit, and causing one of the most unsatis? factory business periods ever exp?rienced in this section. . The unprofitable result of the previous planting season rendered it necessary that, the crop now growing should be produced at the lowest possible figures, and to achieve that result the greatest economy was prac? ticed, and the consumption of food and fer? tilizers reduced to the narrowest limits. Corn and bacon were also obtained at more reasonable rates, and with the very striking improvement in the labor which is generally reported, the present growth will be raised at the lowest cost since the war. The weather at an early period was' marked by heavy and continued rains, causing serious damage, and, io some localities, a partial abandonment of the crop. This was par? ticularly the case over a large surface in the most fertile portions of the Southwest. The more northern part of the cotton region bad more propitious seasons and the plant pro? gressed favorably. The prospect ol low prices caused a more limited area to be placed in cotton, the redaction amounting over a large part of the Sonth to about ten to Ufteen per cent., while there was a much increased area given to grain. There can be but little doubt that, allowing for the smaller surface and the long spell of unfavorable and damaging weather in the spring, a les? sening in the yield, as compared with the season now closing, of 500,000 to 750,000 bales, is highly probable, and that from causes which have already produce.! their effect. Should the coming Fall prove bad and an early froBt take place, a further re? duction would occur. Present appearances, allowing for good weather in the Fall, indi? cate a yield of 3,250,000 to 3,500,000 bates, an amount which should_ make prices rule Bte?dily at 18@25c. rb.' Ia South Carolina reports from nearly all portions of the State give very gratifying in? formation of the condition of both cotton and corn, and observers who have been over the?field say that the growing crops here have a more rich and luxuriant appearance than in any other section of the cotton re? gion, giving promise of abundant returns for the labors of the husbandman. Should the season continue propilious lip the end, there can be no doubt that, es?eyi in a few locali? ties, our State will be blessed with one of the most prolific seasons ever belore experi? enced, promising an ample supply of food and a fair cotton crop for export. "With an exchangeable agricultural growth of some (25,000,000)' twenty-five millions in value of cotton, rice, naval stores, ?fcc., and an abun? dance of provisions, our city may expect a large and prosperous trade daring the com? ing winter. Vote the Wholt ^Ickef. The people of Charleston have at last an oppartunity to wrest the management of their city from the grasp of the corrupt and incompetent crew who have so long ratten? ed in our municipal high places. With en? ergy, unity, and common sense in their coun? sels, success is certain. It is the clearest interest, as it is the higheBt duty ol* every citizen, to work unceasingly from now until the election is over to redeem our city. Let no individual likes or dislikes be allowed to imperil the success of the cause. Let there be no scratching. Let every good citizen VOTE THE WHOLE TICKET. Thus only can we win that complete and glorious vic? tory which is needed to lift old Charleston from the slough of despond. v Declines.
