w Thc Charleston Election.
[From the Boston Advertiser.]
The only regret the Republicans ot the coun?
try need feel at the result of the recent muni?
cipal election In Charleston, S. C., that the
deleat ot the Radical ticket should oavt ' been
so well-deserved. The Republican ntT^Daper,
which repudiated a part ol the ticket bet?re
the election, and the editor or which declares
that he voted for . several candidates on the
Citizens' ticket, emphatically asserts that the
Republicans deieated themselves by nomina?
ting unfit men for office, by "torchlight pro?
cessions which were little better than slices
cut out of Pandemonium," and by "this and
' that tomfoolery which disgraced our city and
?disgusted and maddened the good men of our
party:" The Democratic papers which went
into the successful Citizens' movement make
no pretence of a party victory. THE
NBWS says : "We must, however, In
? all i our rejoicing, remember that this
ls not the victory ot a party or a class.
The day has been won by the united labors of
white and brack, rich and poor, adopted citi?
zen and native Carolinian. It ls the result ot
a strong and united effort to rescue Charleston'
from the hands ?of the plunderers." The Influ?
ence of this election will be great throughout
the State and throughout the whole South. It
Ls too palpable to be contradicted that the evils
iave been generated in the existing govefn
tents there which honorable men- cannot tol?
erate, or consent to share the responsibility of.
They are entirely distinct lrom the principles
which divide parties, but they have attained
?auch proportions and insolence that, as In
Charleston, if the wicked element cannot be
kept under control, it will inevitably happen
that the wise and true will sink partisan pre?
judices for a time, and Join in a common onset
.on the worst enemies of government and so?
ciety.
AU Hcwa?r to Charleston.
[From the Anderson Intelligencer.]
Their self-sacrificing spirit, added to the in
JVA - domi table perseverance displayed in theor
v gan iza lion of the anti-Radical party, assured
the complete victory of last Wednesday. Alb
honor to the noble efforts of the -Charleston
people tor this great result, as lt is destined
to exert a wholesome Influence upon the future
of our beloved State.
The Chief Element of .success. '
[From the Sumter Watchman.]
The successful (Citizens') ticket carried a
lair representation of the respectable people
of the city. And herein, in our judgment, rs
iou nd the chief element which went to work
the unexpected success. The spirit and basis
of action ia this respect, as laid down by the
Reform platform, was employed, and we
telok the result may be legitimately put down
as the first fruit of t?'at eminently wise and
judicious example, and we have the opinion
that it will be followed with greater or less
success lu the next elections throughout che
State. The colored population of Charleston
will find that their real rights aid interests
are safe in the'hands of the party or class that
'will now control the municipal affairs of the
city; thar, in truth, those rights and Interests
are better conserved by the class In question.
And when this comes about. Radicalism In
South Carolina will be no more.
-JThey Won Because they Deserved to
' Win."
[From the Abbeville Banner and Press.]
Whatever may have been the canses o? the
large accessions to the Conservative- rank?,'
there is very little doubt that their future as?
cendancy can be as easily assured, ?nd future
triumphs as easily achieved, by the same earn?
est and effectual efforts. Their places of busi?
ness were closed, private Interest was made to
yield to the public good, and standing around
the polls from morning ?111 night, thev not
only voted themselves but saw that others
should exercise' the same right, of
suffrage. They won the victory because
they deserved to win, and had neg?
lected no means which might ensure
success. The example of Charleston |s full
of hope, and commends Itself to the consid?r?
ai atlon of the true men of the State everywhere.
wIt is a reflection upon our manhood-upon our
Intelligence and capabilities-that we should
auiler the stranger and the adventurer to role
us to our own undoing. What ls our boasted
civilization; if lt ls powerless to give the
means for our own protection. We have our?
se: ?res to blame In a great measure for our un?
fortunate condition. We owe it to our apathy,
our past supineness. Let UB take counsel
from the Charleston election, and, following
the examples of our friends, press on to the
gorl?os victory, to which the exercise, of
e same earnest efforts will undoubtedly lead
.as.
Exit Pillsbury :
[From the Ohester Reporter.]
The Radical scoundrels who lor two years
past have had the City of Charleston by tbe
throat have had their hold broken, and the
future of that proud old city is tor two years
at least, committed to the hanns of men who
have the intelligence to understand ber situa?
tion and the honesty to administer her affairs
for the welfare of the whole community. It
Isvlndeed, a grand, a glorious success. Grand
in its immediate result upon the prosperity of
that city, but grander still as an' evidence
that the charm ot the ring ls broken-that
the back of the serpent that has enveloped the
State in its.slimy folds for two years ls severely
bruised-and as an omen of the suecess that
is In store for the party of decency, honesty*
and order In the campaign of 1872. As the
negroes were considerable in excess of the
whites on the registration list, there must
have been at least one thousand colored men
who voted for the successlul ticket. This is
the most encouraging fact that we have noted
eir.ee the day thai the dark pall ot reconstruc?
tion < citied down upon us. It is the hand?
writing on the wall to the hell-deserving crew
of thieving carpet-baggers that has lorded it at
will over the fair domain of Sor.?h Carolina.
Exit Pillsbury is the stage direct! at the end
of this first*act of the drama in political re?
generation. God grant that he, nor any like
Elm, may ever appear upon this stage again.
"Voa Have Fought the Good Fight."
[From tbe Edgeaeld Advertiser. 1
You "have fought a good fight," gentlemen,
and won a glorious ana telling victory ! We
are very proud of your successful defeat of the
Rotten Radical Ring, and Bend you our heart?
iest congratulations. And may your achieve?
ment ot Wednesday redound to the speedy
redempt'on and rebuilding up of our ever be?
loved, but long down-trodden and shamefully
plundered, old "City by the'Sea."
W - Redeemed at Cast.
[From - the Camden Journal.]
Charleston Is redeemed at last, and even al?
ready her financial condition ls vastly Improv?
ed. The result gives a feeling of pride and
satisfaction to our entire people, such as has
been seldom felt since the war. We heartily
congratulate our neighbors In the "City by the
Sea" that they can once more breathe the air
-of freedom, knowing that their Interests are in
s ar? hands. The moral effect of the victory
will be felt all over the State, and we hope lt
is a presage of victory next year. To the
youne men who pledged their lives to have a
lair election we regard the victory as in great
part due, and Charleston owes a debt of grati?
tude to her young sons who dared to do their
duty.
A T&?NELUSQ TALE.-The New York Eve?
ning Express says: "Our readers^will remem?
ber that an account was published about six
weeks ago of a young lady in Newark, who
went to a drug store ior a dose of castor oil,
and asked the clerk the best way to take it
without tasting it, when the clerk proposed to
?drink a glass of soda' water with her. When
she had finished, he said : ?You have taken
your oil aud did not know lt.' 'Oh.' dear !'
she crbd, ?I didn't want lt for myself-lt was
for mother.' Next day the same mishap occur
. red In Troy, . and, by return mail, we were
surprised to see that this same girl had met
with an equal disaster in Baltimore, where
she became the daughter of a "-leadlDg mer?
chant. ' Then she went to Cincinnati, Louis?
ville, Memphis, New Orleans, Charleston,
and all through the South where there ls a lo?
cal paper and a soda fountain. She then ap
neared at Washington, and cn the same date
a Detroit paper stated she was there. Next she
took her soda water lb Chicago, St. Louis and
Pittsburg. Then she got out to Omaha, and
w*> concluded we would hear no more of her.
' But here comes the Kansas City Bulletin
along with the same story, Wbere Bhe has be?

THE COUNTY OF AIKEX.
An Important meeting at Hand-De?
signating the Sites of the County
Buildings-The Disinterested Candi?
dates tor Office-Who and What they
are, ?C.
[FROH OUR OWN C0RBB3F0KDEKT.]
^ COLUMBIA, August 10.
The citizens of the new Count; of Aiken
have been invited to meet at the county seat,
(Aiken,) on Saturday next, to consult regard?
ing the sites of the county buildings, the style
and cost of tho same, the manner ot raising
the necessary funds, and upon other matters
pertaining to the welfare of the county. The
invitation, as your correspondent ls informed,
is extended by the commissioners, who have
given the subject due consideration, and are
prepared to designate to the citizens suitable
sites, display plans and estimates for the build?
ings, and suggest a feasible plan for securing
the money. While clothed with power to carry
out whatever plans they may deem advisable,
the commissioners have wisely concluded not
to act without ascertaining the views of the
taxpayers. There ls every prospect of a full
.meeting. .
It is estimated that all ot the county build?
ings can be erected at a cost of not over fl tty
thousand dollars. To meet this expense lt is
thought that bonds will bo issued upon the
credit of the county. I am informed that this
amount and more will be easily raised if the
taxpayers resolve upon this plan.
The Radical politicians are hard at work
manipulating matters with a view ot secur?
ing all of the county offices and the represen?
tation in the Legislature. Mr. Frank Arnim,
as lils reward for his efforts In having the new
county created, will be elected senator, secur?
ing doubtless all of the Republican, and a
very large number of the Conservative votes.
Arnim is styled . the '*Kinz of Aiken."
(There ls an "aching void" in the Sen?
ate which he desires to. fill.) . He seems to
be "bossing the Job" as far. as politics are con?
cerned in the county, and aspirants cluster
lovingly around him.. They admire the tact
which led him. when he found that his four
year's term as senator from Edge?eld County
was about expiring, to stir up the old feeling
ol a portion of his constituents for a new
"county, the industry and determination to
carry through the oft-defeated project, and the
modest self-denial which introduced the clause
extending the new county lines BO as to en?
close his home and the homes of his zealous
adherents, thns, with the promises exacted
from-those interested in the creation of the
new countv, securing a new lease of senatorial
Ufe.
Prince R. Rivers, late representative from
Edgefield County, ls spoken of os au opponent
of Arm rn's. Those who profess to know de?
clare there is not the least chance for.him. tor
this or for any other position, bis former ad?
mirers having become disgusted with bis os?
tentatious display of his gains and aristocratic
notions which shut him off from the society of
his quondam companions.
Mr. William Kennedy, of Hamburg, aspires
to the berth of ehe-lff. But as there are seve?
ral others who ht e "hopes." and as Mr. Ken?
nedy is looked upon with distrust by the
negroes, because he associates too much with
ude white folks,"-tbere Is little probability of
-his; election. Rumor has lt that the voters in
the neighborhood of Granite ville. Langley and
Bath want Sheriff McDevitt (nov of Edge li eld
County) to move into Aiken County and run
for shei UL Also, that the sheriff con templates
running for.the Legislature from Aiken.
Mr. JohmWooley, now treasurer of Edge
field, will secure a profitable office in Aiken.
While Edgefield lost by the di vi vision some
of its fairest domains and its most valuable
taxpaying property, it is the gainer by the loss
of a lor, ot as greedy office-seekers and peace
disturbers as ever foisted themselves upon an
unwilling people. The squabbling for office
in. the new county bids lair to cause serious
dissensions in "the party," and li the good
people of both races unite and work, a victory
like that in Charleston may be their reward.

[From the Colombia Union.j
It was currently reported on the street yes?
terday (Thursday) t'iat Mr. Cressfield, the
brother or the gentleman who was killed
about a year ago, and the person who was
severely wounded at the time his brother was
killed. In Edge?eld County, had been murdered
In Greenville. So far as we have been able to
trace the report, it turns out that he was shot
at some Ave or six times by the party claiming
that his relative had been aggrieved, but no
mortal wounds Were inflicted.
A Shooting Affair In Chester.
[From the Chester Reporter.]
An unfortunate occurrence, resulting in the
dangerous, if not fatal, shooting of Mr. John
Hancock, took place In the upper part of this
county on last Saturday afternoon. A num?
ber ol persons were returning home from a
barbecue at Carmel Hill, when an altercation
took place between Mr. James M. Kirkpatrick
and Mr. John Hancock. Hancock was threat?
ening to shoot Kirkpatrick, when Mr. John
Kirkpatrick, (a younger brother of J. M.
Kirkpatrick.) rode up. He made some re?
mark to Hancock about his threat to shoot
his brother, when Hancock at once turned
and began dring upon him. Two shots were
fired before John Kirkpatrick succeeded in
getting his pistol drawn. His first shot struck
Hancock in the left breast, bringing him to
the ground, and a second Bhot enrered his
thigh as he was falling. Hancock finid twice
after being shot down, but fortunately with?
out striking Kirkpatrick. These are the facts
as stated to us by a'gentleman from that part
of the county. We learn that the wounds are
pronounced not necessarily fatal. We are also
glad to be Informed that on Sunday Hancock
?sent for Kirkpatrick to come out and see him,
and, while regretting the unfortunate affair,
exonerated Kirkpatrick from all blame on the
ground that the firing by him was entirely in
self-deleave.

AN IMPERIAL SCANDAL.
SINGULAR REVELATIONS OF THE
SECOND EMl'IRE.
A Monarch's Infidelity-The Case of ?I.
_ Devienne.
The foreign papers acquaint ?ns with the
fact that ll. Devienne, president oi the Court
of Cassation, has been acquitted on the
charges preferred against him by the Govern?
ment of National Defence.. The first and
gravest accusation was based on discoveries
made among the private papers of the Em?
peror after his defeat at Sedan, and after the
Sight of the Empress, and it was alleged that
M. Devienne had seriously compromised his
dignity as a magistrate by negotiations of a
scandalous nature. The scandal was one in
which the Emperor was mainly concerned,
and which led to the sudden appearance of
the Empress in Scotland in 1864.'
M. Deviennes part in the affair was that of a
mediator, and it was through his Interposition
that a reconciliation was effected. The two
other charges against him were ' that he had
disobeyed the summons of M. Emmanuel Ara
go, acting as deputy minister of Justice tinder
the Provisional Government, to return to Paris
in order to explain lils connection with this
affair, and that be had absented himself from
Paris In an hour ot national peril. The simple
answer to these complaints ls, that M. Devi?
enne left Paris lu obedience to the Instructions
of M. Cremeleux, the minister of, Justiee, who.
was hlmsell sent to Tours before Parts was be?
sieged, the President's mission belog to organ?
ize a provisional chamber of the Court of Cas?
sation In the provinces.
Upon these points the court does not appear
to have pronounced any opinion; but with re?
spect to the more serious charge, it finds that
M. Devienne, "having consented to assist in
arranging the domestic troubles of a family of
most exalted rank, and in preventing a public
scandal, obeyed an honorable sentiment, and
in no way infringed the duty pf an honest
man." Details of the antecedents and circum?
stances of the trial are supplied by the edito?
rial summary which we find In the columns, of
the London Times. That Journal says : '
"Toward the latter end of November, I860,
the Empress Eugenie startled the friends and
the enemies of the Bonaparte dynasty by a
private visit to this country. Although the
Emperor, made aware of ber resolution at the
eleventh hour, so far saved appearances as to
be 'Just in time' to see her off at the Northern
Ballway terminus, and although it was given
out that the Empress' Journey had no other
object than to spend a lew days with her for?
mer governess in Scotland, still there was
something so sudden and clandestine in her
departure and In her style of travelling that it
could not fail at the time tb give rise to every
variety of report and conjecture. The mem?
bers of the French Embassy in London,
whom thc telegraph acquainted with the
Empress' movements, attended at an early
hour to receive their Sovereign's consort at
anv of the stations at which she might be ex?
pected to arrive. Somehow the august trav?
eller contrived to escape their attentions, and
drove unrecognized, aud accompanied only by
one gentleman and two ladles ot her suite, tb
Clarldge's Hotel, whence, after a quiet saunter
In Regent street, she proceeded by rail to Scot?
land, and was next heard of at Edinburgh, at
Glasgow, and on the track of summer tour?
ists in the Highlands. Af?cr a three weeks'
stay, and a private visit to the Queen at Wind?
sor, she reappeared at the Tuileries. One ex?
planation ascribed the Imperial lady's visit to
grief lor the death of her sister, the Duchess
ot Alva; another to a passing flt of harmless
eccentricity; another to a longing, natural to
one not born* in the purple, to withdraw, for
however, short a period, from the weary mo?
notony of her lofty station. But none of these
seemed sufficient, and the supposition which
obtained most public favor was that the flight
of the Empress was the result of some storm
in the Imperial household; and as Eugenie
was extremely devout, and at that moment
the Emperor 'had Just openly countenanced
the Italiau invasion of tho Harenes and umo
rla, and was endeavoring to prevail on the
Pope to consent to the loss of those provinces,
lt was surmised that husband and wife had
quarrelled about the Roman question. But
there were besides shrewder newsmone
ers, who asserted that Jealousy was at
the bottom of the Imperial disagreement;
that the Empress had taken umbrage at
some indiscretion of her lord, the Empe?
ror, and had vowed not to go back
to him unless the cause of offence was
removed. Whatever mystery might yet have
hung upon that now almost forgotten episode
in a wedded life which bas been otherwise
singularly free from domestic clouds, has been
unvaried by the sentence pronounced by the
French Court of Cassation In favor of M. De?
vienne, the late flrst president of the Court of
Paris. It seems now certain that the Emperor
had really, some time before that short breach
of his domestic peace, succumbed to the fasci?
nations ol a young lady .whose beauty was the
theme of much conversation in the Paris
world, and that the displeasure of the Empress
was caused by the reports which reached her
of the degree of intimacy existing between
this lady and the Emperor, and the consequen?
ces the connection had entailed, which could
hardly tall to lead to some scandalous expo?
sure. The happiness of the wile and the satety
Of the husband required something more than
the removal of the rival. It was necessary
to obtain from her a retraction of the asser?
tions upon which she founded her claim,
and upon the strength of which she threat?
ened to bring the Emperor before a court
of law. The Empress generously giving up
all Idea of a divorce, and conseutlng to a re?
conciliation with her erring husband, exerted
herself to extort lrom ber rival a declaration
to the effect that she had deceived the Em?
peror, and that her intercourse had no such
results as she bad led him to believe. It was
through M. Devienne, as highest in rank
among the French magistrates, that the Em?
press was advised to carry on the negotiations
with the lady in question; and it was for act?
ing in the wishes ot his Imperial mistress that
M. Devienne was, by the revolutionary gov?
ernment of the 4th of September, accused ol
havlug seriously compromised his dignity as a
magistrate." In vindication of hi3 conduct,
the Court of Cassation states that 'by consent?
ing to assist in arranging the domestic troubles
of a family of most exalted rank, and in pre?
venting a public scandal, M. Devienne obeyed
an honorable sentiment, and In ne way
Infringed the duty of a man of honor.' - We
do not think that, out of France at least,
people will greatly concern themselves about
the part played by the ch iel President
of the Imperial Court in this delicate transac?
tion. All the Interest concentrates Itself on
one point, and that is the wholesome fear the
Emperor Napoleon entertained as to the con?
sequences ol' his Indiscretion. Whatever may
be said of the luxury and corruption, accord?
ing to General Trochu, Imported into France
from England and Italy; whatever opinion
may be conceived of the 'Bohemianism' said
to be pervading all classes In France, and dis?
organizing all lamily ties, we are evidently
verv, far, even In that country, from those
'good old time3, when a Afoiiresse en titre was
looked upon as one of the great dignitaries of
the court, and a queen not only had to put up
with an openly acknowledged rival, but could
only maintain a second-hand influence over
her husband by thro win:.- in his way a beauty
devoted to her Interests, to counteract the
charms of another beauty in whom she appre?
hended an enemy. The mere circumstance
that tor a long period in the present century
France has' been under the sway of mon?
archs of mature age, ? accustomed the
generation which survived the great
revolution to look upon the Hontespaos,
the Pompadours and the Dubarrys
of the ancien regime as things Inex?
orably out ot date. It was understood that
sovereigns should reign on some better title
than 'having been at the pains to be born;'
that there were duties as well as privileges
attached lo their station, and that, although
they could hardly be expected to be exempt
from frailties common to other mortals, the
conspicuous position they occupied should at
least impose upon them the necessitlty of re?
specting public decencies. What the succes?
sion of three rulers so well-behaved, whether
lrom age or from disposition, as LOU?B XVIII,
Charles X and Louis Philippe did tor our
neighbors, hos been effected in this coun?
try by the exemplary tone of our
Court since the accession ot the Queen.
The Emperor Napoleon came to the
throne In his mature age, and when it was
thought that ambition could hardly have left
mach room in his bea't (or those amiable
weaknesses which find Heir excuses in youth.
He had been guided by aTection in the choice
of a partner of his great-ess. and he might be
permitted to enjoy a cbmestic bliss which,
we will not say no caprice, but at .least no im
?rudence, could ever tenpt him to endanger,
ie was at that: time it the height of bis
popularity, for his Loubard campaign had
won him the applause ?ven o? his enemies,
while the annexation cf Savoy and Nice had
reconciled .lo him the advocates of a more
strictly national policy. But a lawsuit such as
his culpable attachmen. so nearly involved
bim In, was more than ?ven in all his might
he would have ventura! to lace. His wife,
though peaceable to itu taint, would have
been Inexorable to Its exposure, and peace
could hardly hare been nade unless a means
had been found to hush ip the scandal. The
Emperor's prospects fir himself and his
dynasty would have lost much of their bright?
ness, and tbe nation whim had condoned the
coup d'etat and accepted personal rule would
have murmured at domestic irregularities
to which generally socfetv shows only too
much Indulgence, but wllcn the high rank of
the offender would not lave allowed him to
ignore. In our age, when we place kings and
grinces above tis, we exiect them to be the
est among us; and if they, actually are not
what we would have thea, we Insist, at least,
on their seeming to be so"

THE STORM IN CAMDEN.
A White Man Killed by Lightning-A
Church Blown Dou n.
(From the Camden Journal.]
The storm of last Thursday was very violent.
A great deal ot wind accompanied by a heavy
lall of rain. During it Mr. John Love was
struck and instantly allied by lightning. He
Vas sitting under a snail oak, known as the
"black Jack," at the tine of the occurrence.
His wite was sitting in tselr wagon, in the road,
by the side of which wa? Mr. Love. Bhe says
that he fell immediately upon the flash of the
lightning, which, strange to shy. left no mark
wnatever upon his person. Mr. Love lost, by
fire, a -few months since, 1:1s dwelling, kitchen,
stable, horse, wagon, and in short everything;
and leaves a large family without the means
of support Most of his children are small.
The colored Baptist Church, lu process of
erection, wus also blown down by the torna?
do. Some carpenters were working upon lt,
when one of them heard an ominous crack,
and had barely warned the others and got
outside, before the entire structure was blown
down. Several trees were snapped off, a lew
fences blown down, and the corn prostrated
in many places, and materially damaged, but
we have heard of no serious accidents other
than those above chronicled.
THE BLUE RIDGE ASSOCIATION.
Their Plan ox Completing the Road.
[From the Anderson Intelligencer.]
Some weeks ago lt was announced in these
columns that arrangements were then pro?
gressing for an effective programme looking
to the early completion of this great enter?
prise, so long cherished by the people of this
State. The consummation of these arrange?
ments is now made public. The State stock in
the Blue Ridge Railroad has been purshased
hy an association of agouti P roan, onabcaclng
leading citizens and Influential capitalists of this
State, together with persons of ample
means and influence in New York.
This stock has been transferred upon the
condition that the State shall be pro?
tected from loss upon the $4,000,000 guar?
anteed bonds, and that the road shall be com?
pleted within five years from the date ot trans?
fer. The sum agreed to be paid for the stock
is merely nominal, it is true, but the new
company amply reimburses the State by afford
lag protection from any loss upon the Stats
guarantee, and by the rapid completion of
the enterprise. Besides, It is agreed that the
State shall receive len thousand dollars per
annum for five years after the completion of
the road as a further payment for the stock
now transferred. We are not at liberty, per?
haps, to mention the names ol' gentlemen
forming this new company, but we can as?
sure the public that many of our most honored
and respected citizens are Included In this
combination of capital and Influence, as will
be acknowledged when the transfer ls entirely
made, and their names are given to the
world.
The plan for the completion of the :oad Is
to change the gauge to three feet, and .v.treys
will be commenced without delay to make the
contemplated alteration. It is believed that
the "narrow gauge," as lt ls termed, will an?
swer every purpose for the most extensive
business and traffic ever claimed for this road.
The subject has been thoroughly matured, and
all the sources of Intormation exhaustively ex?
plored, with a view to the proposed change.
The facilities lor meeting the demands of trade
and commerce ore confidently expected to
prove adequate under the narrow-gauge sys?
tem, while the lessened expenses of construc?
tion and the low cost of operating the road,
when completed afford the strongest Induce
menta for a trial of this system, which ls at*
trading so much attention throughout the
civilized globe.
The Bine Ridge as a Narrow Gange
Railroad-The Saving In Cost.
[From the Chester Reporter.]
Colonel Low's investigations of this subject
clearly demonstrate that all the early preju?
dices against the narrow gauge system have
been successfully overcome by forty years'
experience In Europe, and that the same ex?
perience has demonstrated the tact that all
the excess of capital Involved lu the building
ot wider roads lias been wasted on works dis
proportioned to the duties they had to per?
form. He estimates the probable cost of com?
pleting the Blue Ridge Railroad and furnishing
it with rolling stock, for the five feet gauge,
$7,540,000; to which must be added, lor retir?
ing the old debt and paying the floating debt,
$800,000. Toward this sum of $8,340,000
will be realized from the four millions
endorsed bonds, say $3,200,000; leaving a
cash capital, to be raised, of $5,140,000. The
adoption of the three feet gauge, he estimates,
would result in a sav.ng on construction and.
equipment equal to $3,140,000, leaving to be
raised by cash subscription to preferred Btock
only $2,000,000. It ls also estimated that the
reduced working cost lor the same amount of
traffic will allow'the narrow gauge to pay Beven
per cent, on the Investment, while on the
wider gauge only three per cent, could be re?
alized.
The discussion leads Colonel Low to the con?
clusions-First. That the three feet gauge will
answer all the requirements of the prospective
traffic ol' the road. Second. That the saving
in first cost will be immense, enough in tact,
to place the completion of the road within
rpach, by raising $2,000,080 of additional capi?
tal, while it seems Impracticable to obtain the
large sum necessary for a five feet line. Third.
That being built, the narrow gauge will be
much more economical In working, the ex?
pense being only 52J, instead of 70 per cent,
of the gross receipts.
These conclusions, so far as they relate to
the requirements and expense ot railroads,
are alike applicable to every road in the South?
ern Sutes. And while all practical men will
agree with Colonel Low, that the narrow
gauge system presents the most feasible plan
tor the construction of the Blue Ridge Road,
lt ls also clear that the public-stockholders
and Individuals-woulJ be benefited, were
all our roads now in operation to adopt the
narrow gauge; as, quoting from the pamphlet
before us: "Every inch added to the width of
a gauge, beyond what is absolutely necessary
for the traffic, adds to the costs of construc?
tion, increases the proportion of dead'welght,
increases the cost of working, and, in con?
sequence, increases the tariffs to the public,
aud by so much, reduces the useful effect of
the railway."

fork.
The Enquirer says : "It ls now evident that
the crops in York Courty and, in fact, In many
of the upper and middle sections of the State,
will be light. Not BO light ns on some former
occasions. In 1845, the drought was more ex?
tensive and much more severe. In 1866, the
drought was equally as severe and perhaps
nearly as general. The ar'eat desideratum with
the farmers now ls to know how stock Is to be
fed next year. The corn crop will not meet
the emergency, and the colton crop will
not enable farmers to buy corn to the
extent that their necessity will require.
It seems that lt would be eminently
proper in farmers to store away in their
barns all the forage, such as hay, fod?
der and shucks that tney possibly can. With
an abundance of long forage, stock can be sus?
tained on very little grain, especially auch as
are not required to do heavy work* The next
thing that should be done, we think, ls that
every farmer prepare a small parcel ol gronnd
and sow lt In some .kind of grain-oats or
wheat-that will mature soon and enable him
to commence feeding his work stock upon lt
at an early period next summer. Usually*
such a patch of grain can be used safely by
the last ot May or first of June. Oats shoild
be sown all over those dry sections as largely
as possible. The condition ot the domestic an?
imals determine, very accurately, the amount
of the harvest. No man, however great his
skill and Industry, can make a heavy crop
with poor, half-fed horses or mules. No mau
ought to try lt. Every man of prudent fore?
thought will make every arrangement In his
power to have his work animals led well."

TBE CHOLERA IN RUSSIA.
The Dread Pilgrim on the March-Pre?
caution? Advised.
[From the London Lancet]
The rumored extension of cholera from Rus?
sia into the Baltic Provinces of Prussia has
very naturally caused alarm,, lest the malady
should again spread to West Europe, and
thence to this country. The news requires
confirmation, and much of the alarm depends
upon,a mistaken notion of tbe rapidity..of
diffusion in the direction of progress of the
epidemic. One account describes the dis?
Base as having made Its way in the familiar
cholera route, from Persia through Russia to
the shores of the Baltic; and the
reglsTrar-general, in his last weekly report,
writes that "Asiatic cholera (as lt was
a painful duty to announce early last,
June) is entering Western Europe through
Russia, where, Dr. Znelzer says, lt ls
fast advancing on the German frontiers. In
the second week of this month lt broke out la
Wllkowyskl, (a town In Poland, on the road to
Koenigsberg, west of the Niemen,) where thir?
ty-lour deaths occurred within a few days.
The epidemic has prevailed in Wilna for four
weeks, and from ten to Alteen deaths ore re?
ported dally. At Its present rate of progress
it may reach Germany In two or three weeks."
The progress of the present epidemic #f chole?
ra In Russia and its relation to epidemic chole
. ra In Persia, have formed ? study of altogether
exceptional Interest In epidemiology; and the
different facts throwing light upon the subject
particularly upon the chronological succession
of the more important local outbreaks In the'
two countries, have been systematically
reported in the pages of the Lancet
The existing epidemic In Russia (apparently
a recrudescence of the epidemic of 1866) began
In December, 1869. In the course of that
month the disease appeared at Orel, In the
Government of Smolensk, and In the city of
Moseow. During the earlier months of 1870,
th? malady prevailed slightly In the localities
named; but In July and August it spread
widely In the southeastern districts of Russia
tn Europe, and throughout the autumn lt was
more or less prevalent In many Russian ports
of the Black Sea On the 29 th of August 1870,
the epidemic broke out In St Petersburg, and
from that date to the 8th instant there bad been
not less than 5330 cases of the disease In that
city, of which 2178 died. On the 8th July
there were 335 cases reported to be under
treatment. From St Petersburg tbe disease has
been scattered In various directions In West
Russia; and lt was present in Wilna in April.
The epidemic ls now prevalent, more or less,
at various parts in West, Central and East Rus?
sia, In Europe. The, protracted duration of
this epidemic in Russia, and Its limitation to
tbe present time (so far as Enrope Is concern?
ed) to the provinces ofthat Empire, Isa phe?
nomenon of very remarkable interest In the
history of the epidemic diffusions of cholera.
From tl;e close of 1859 the presence of the
epidemic in Russia, we have reason to know,
has been a source of constant anxiety to the
officials of the Privy Council Office,
whose duty lt is to watch over the health
welfare of the Kingdom, and we
ourselves have spared no pains to bring
the different facts, which would throw light
upon the probable future of the epi?
demic, to the knowledge of the profession, as
yet we have np certain information that the
malady has become actively migratory, and
that lt has extended across the Russian frontier
Into West and Central Europe. But that this
danger is Imminent, and has been imminent
at any period since the winter of 1869 is cer?
tain, and lt is well that the dally press should
have raised the question of tbe start of our
protected ness against the epidemic. Upon
this question we do not propose now to dwell
further than to remark that it is one upon
which' no doubt can rest as to the duties of
the local authorities, who are responsible lor
the administration of the sanitary laws.
