SEWS OF TOE DAT. -Gold closed In New York, on Saturday, at 12?all?. -Cotton was dull and nominal; uplands 19 cents; soles 367 bales. -In Liverpool cotton closed quiet; uplands 9a9td, Orleans 9ja9}d; sales 12,000 bales. -New York boot-blacks have reduced their tariff to five cents a shine. -The President's farm near St. Louis com? prises about 800 acres, valued at an average of $250 per acre. General Grant became the possessor of .the main tract In 1866, and has added to its area and made many valuable Im? provements. His stable contains a dozen fine blooded horses, including a Hambletonian stallion and colt, and colts by Bashaw, Flying Cloud and Legal Tender, all in splendid con? dition. A large flock of Southdown sheep graze near the house, with herds of Holstein, Devon, Ayrshire, and Alderney cows in the adjoining pasture. The President intends to make this his home on his retirement irom office, and ls having it pat in first-class condi? tion. -From the China papers particulars are re . celved of the foundering of lbs ship Prince of Wales, on her voyage from China to Slam. She started on the 26th of June, and directly en? countered threatening weather, which rapidly grew worse and worse, until at 4 o'clock on the morning of the 27th the ship began to set? tle down by the stern. The captain could not find out the reason for this at first, as no great leakage was discernable below; but it was afterward lound that the bair ?-eves bad bsen dashed in by ibe heavy sea. Purr ,ring was not attempted as the ship was settling fast, and the officers and crew appear to have done no? thing but stand and watch their doom. There were tbree boats on board, but they are said to have been unserviceable. At 6 o'clock the vessel sank head-foremost. Groups ol heads were seen struggling in the water for some time, but they disappeared one by one, and nearly all perished miserably. After clinging to a spar thirty-three hours, three nearly ex? hausted seamen were picked up by a Macao Junk, and these are, os far as is now known, the only ones, out of a crew of fifty-four, that have survived to tell the tale. -An extraordinary case was recently before the Criminal Court of St. Louis. A man cam? ed Patrick Burns was some time ago convicted of murder in the first degree and sentenced to be bung, but the Governor of Missouri com? moted his punishment to imprisonment in the penitentiary for ten years. Burns ls in doubt whether to accept the Governor's grace or not. Hanging is soon over; ten years in prison is a long time. On the whole, his preferences are for the gibbet; but. not wishing to decide the question hastily, and having been accustomed of late to rely on legal c/lvice, he hos consult? ed his lawyer, and will be guided by that indi? vidual in making up bis mind. Feeling strong? ly inclined to be swung up, Burns was solici? t?os to know li any legal obstacles stood in bis way, in consequence of the Governor's action. He applied to Judge Prim, of the court which sentenced him, and was gratified to learn from that functionary that the option-rope or pris? on-rested with the prisoner exclusively. A pardon, or commutation, was in the nature of a deed addressed to the convict, said thejsdge, which he has a right to accept or reject. If Burns preferred hanging, the judge would ac? commodate him. -An arrangement has Just been concluded between the United States and Germany, to' take effect on the first ot October next, which reduces the rate of international postage for prepaid letters, if changed between the two countries by the closed mail via England, irom ten to seven cents for each rate ol half an onnce or under. Unpaid letters so ex Changed are to be charged with double the prepaid rates, and the insufficiently paid let? ters for the postage for unpaid letters after de? duction of the amount prepaid. The arrange? ment thus establishes a uniform postage ol seven cents or three silver groschen per single rate on prepaid letters exchanged between the United 8tates and Germany on and after the 1st of October proximo, whether transmit? ted via England, or by the direct lines via Hambarg or Bremen. It ls particularly to be observed that this reduction applies to letters only, BO that all correspondence other than letters posted in the United States for Germa? ny will continue subject to the same rates of postage and to the same conditions of compul? sory prepayment as are now applicable there? to. Postmasters will levy and collect postage on and alter 1st ol October next. -The trial of Mrs. Colburn for the murder of Bufenburg, herlormer husband, ls drawing its slow length along in the London, Ohio, court? room. Wednesday's proceedings assumed a more important phase than hitherto, and the audience was very large. The trail of the hid? den prosecutors was more marked, and occa? sionally points of dramatic interest occurred. The sensation ol the day was the establishing of the damaging fact for the prosecution that) ? tbs inquest h<?!d on the exhumed body ol Buf? enburg was illegal. The prosecution suffered further at the hands of subsequent Witnesses. A nephew of the deceased testified that he thought Colburn had visited the house only | about twice a year, and he could not say that his visits were objectionable to Bufenburg. Another witness said that Mrs. Bufenburg had told her that Colburn had come to Bee her twice, under the impression that she was Bui enburg's daughter. On the cross-examina? tion the witness said that Mr. and Mrs. Bufen? burg seemed to live very happily together, and she never saw anything to disturb her confidence in Mrs. Bufenburg. Two or three livery stable men of London were examined as to the frequency of Colburn's visits to Mrs. Bufenburg during the life ol ber first husband, but they did not establish more than two or three visits. So far the delence i3 having de? cidedly the best ol the trial. Too Much Conference ! The Camden Journal is *"f?r Conference, " and early organization, not agitation." IQ the opinion, of oar contemporary, there? fore, the Conference proposed by the Bam well Sentinel will be the beginning Cf such organization as may be required for the canvass of 1872. We are convinced that no organization worthy of the Dame caa be had before next spring, or sommer. There might be a club here or there, bht it is not feasible to enlist the active sympathies of the people, at this time, in a contest which will not t.".ke place for a year or more. Over-haste, in these matters, is as fatal as a blind postponement of the work until the very last minute. But there is a stronger objection. Organization must be preceded by the adoption of a dis? tinctive name and distinctive platform. Po? litical dabs must know what to call them? selves, and their members naturally demand an objective point, or guiding principle. And we hold that only a body of delegates deliberately chosen by the people, for the purpose, have any right to determine ques? tions so momentous. Emergencies may arise, SB in 1870, which warrant a Confer? ence, but in ordinary seasons it is best that political action should spring from the root of authority, which is the people. Any so called Conference held without an impera? tive necessity might expect, therefore, to be popularly regarded with doubt or distrust. One point in the Journal's article we fear that we do not understand aright It speaks of the proposed Conference as an assemblage 11 representing nobody, respon " Bible to nobody, and binding nobody. We cannot conceive oj three more stringent reasons why Ute Conference j)roje<A should \ be abandoned. And yet this is hardly what the Journal desires ! Sip Doxy ! We find the following paragraph in the last issue of the Barnwell Sentinel: "We can verv well- understand how the Re? publican can compliment THE NEWS tor its brains in not seeing the thing (the Columbia Conference) in the same light as the Sentinel. It may be damaging to the party whom the Re? publican, Mr. Greeley and Major Delaney de? nounce in this State." The Sentinel, it will be seen, does not allow its own infallibility to be called in question. Orthodoxy, it 8ay3, is my doxy heterodoxy is another man's doxy. THE CHARLESTON NEWS diflferB from the Sentinel; therefore, it is giving aid and comfort to the enemy. This dogmatism is not argument; but it will give the people a foretaste of what the opponents of a Conference may reasona? bly expect in November. *. Probabilities P' The difference of opinion which exists among Democrats upon the subject of the New Departure, is a source of great joy to the Radical politicians. They will keep their courage up, if whistling and hurrahing can do it; although some of their leading organs in the West tell them, without minc? ing words, that any Republican who thinks that tho next political race will be a walk? over for Grant, will find himself lamentably oat of pocket on settling day. The Cincin? nati Commercial, an iudependent Republi? can journal of wide-spread influence, thinks that the Grant party stand a good chance of losing the flesh-pots, and warns them that they will fall into the hands of the enqmy unleaa great care be taken in the selection of a candidate. According to the Commer? cials correspondent, the probabilities nre that the States, in 1872, will be divided as follows : Republican States. Democratic States. Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Connecticut, Massachusetts, New York, Rhode Island, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, North Carolina, Maryland, South Carolina, Virginia, Florida, . West Virginia, Mississippi, Alabama, Louisiana, Georgia, Texas, Arkansas, Ohio, Tennessee, Illinois. Kentucky, Michigan, Missouri, Wisconsin, Indiana. Iowa, Calliornia, Kansas, Oregon, Minnesota. Nevada. Nebraska, In this list the Radicals are given the pre? ponderance of doubtful States ; for they hold Pennsylvania, Ohio, North Carolina and Terar by a very uncertain tenure, while the doubtful Democratic States are of much less importance, comprising, perhaps, Con? necticut, Indiana, Arkansas and Nevada The Democratic party have gained New Hampshire, Missouri and Indiana since the last Presidential election, and are gradually but surely coming to the front in all the Sonthern States, because their adherents there have almost a monopoly of the wealth and intelligence. On the other hand, the Republicans have not gained a solitary Slate since 18G8, and if they lose either Pennsyl? vania or Ohio, they must take a permanent back-seat. This sort of talk, and the fact that the Commercial comes out strongly for Harlan, of Kentucky, as the Republican candidate, indicate that the Wost i3 getting tired of the monarch of LOL:: Brunch. How tho floaty Goes : A realizing sense of the weight ot taxation we carry comes to us at least once a year. The announcement ol Mr. Boutwell puts the fig? ures for the last fiscal year at $363,323,940 re? ceived irom Federal taxes upon the people. Adding other exactions ol the General Gov? ernment, the amount will easily reach $400, 000,000, which is the pleasant little sum of more than a million a day, Sundays included. This sort o? thing has now been going on for six years since the close of the war, during .which time the country has contributed at least $2,700,000,000 t0 the Government. In addition, there has been the sale ot munitions of war, the proceeds ot which have been un accounted for, raising the amount of money passing through the hands of the Government in six years to $3,000,000,000. As Mr. Bout-1 well's great expectations are founded mainly upon his reduction of the public debt, it is only fair to compare the amount he has re? ceived with the extent of his performances In that direction. With three thousand millions taken from the people, he has reduced the debt by only two hundred and eighty-four mil? lions. Where has the other $2,716,000,000 gone ? Extravagance, corruption and an army of office-holders have eaten it up, and left this paltry showing for Ute financial secretary. GOVERNOR SCOTT offers a reward of two hun? dred dolhrs lor the apprehension and convic? tion ol aay and every person connected with the Eu-Klux Klan.
