Cenls tunnel ls successfully opened and trains are now passing through lt without delay. -A tract of 50,000 acres of land has been ob? tained on the Canada side of the St. Lawrence, above Quebec, for a colony ol Alsatians. -In Boston there are 148 churches, of which 27 are Unitarian, 22 Methodist, 17 Baptist, 17 Catholic, 15-?plfcopalian and 7 Presbyterian. -The French trl-color still floats from the summit ol the Metz Cathedral, the few who are capable of taking lt down stubbornly refusing todo so. -The emigrants from Scotland, who arrived at ChrlsUansvllle, Va., some two weeks since, have all purchased farms near that place and seiMod. -Mr. Bergh Insists that the slaughter lng o' animals in the presence of each other ls a needless cruelty, and urges the butchers to do their executions privately. -Pittsburg has been called upon to settle the question ot admitting colored children to the public schools. The Republican papers all denounce the admixture ol white and colored pupils. -Dr. J. Marlon Sim.8, having "punched" the head of Dr. Thomas W.

The D?bats say; that if thu emigration should continuo, the time is not far distant when there will no longer be any Alsatians in Alsace, and it thinks that the Alsatians would show more political sagacity were they to stay at home. -A correspondent of the London Daily Tel? egraph not long ago held a conversation with a personage whom the correspondent believ? ed to be Bismarck. The false Bismarck in? dulged In a series of extraordinary and undip? lomatic statements, which the anxious corres? pondent hastened to send off to his expectant Journal. The German papers now* ridicule this conversation, and say thal the correspon? dent was hoaxed. -1| will be remembered t,b.at some weeks ] ago a i?rge portion of the Town of Goldsboro', 1 N. C., was destroyed by fire; that this was be- : lieved to be of incendiary origin; that a few 1 days before a npjro demonstration and riot o> ? C?'rired there; that some of the rioters '.net I threatened to burn the town, and that Uley j were suspected ol the Incendiarism. The V' ? ming ton, N. C., Star says that on the 10th instant John Taylor aod Miks Freeman, two colored waiters, who had been employed at the hotel in which the Ure broke out, were arrested in Wilmington on the charge of being the incendiaries, and taken to Goldsboro' lor examination. Their case had been worked up by two detectives irom the North, employed by the authorities, who worked themselves into the confidence of liie accused, and depose to having obtained from them a direct confes? sion of the crime. -The reward of one hundred thousand dol? lars offered by the New York Legislature, lor the best substitute for horse-power in propell? ing canal boals, has brought forward numer? ous claimants. Among the recent proposi? tions is that ol an air pipe extending Hie entire length ol the canal, with reservoirs ten miles apart to supply the boats with compressed air, to be used as a propelling force. The air ls to Decompressed by power derived irom the Falls of Niagara, just as the compressed air used to drive the drills in the Mount Cenis tunnel was obtained irom the streams ot water dammed up in Ihe recesses of the Alps. This scheme, ?tis admitted, is highly visionary, yet it is argued that many ol the achieve? ments of the present day were considered pre? posterous forty years ago. The capabilities ol compressed air as a motive power and thc pos? sibility of conveyiog its effects to a great dis? tance are not yet lully understood, but the ad? vocates of this agent claim that it will produce results more wonderful than any that are now known. -The Chinese rroblem Is in a fair way of Anding its solution in Louisiana, lhere arc now more than 2000 Celestials working on j lani at ions and in sugar-houses,and thu plant ere and Bugar-house men 6ay they would not j part with those they have, but would like to have more. A correspondent of the New York Journal of Commerce writeB ol a visit made by him to Millandon plantation, near New Orleans, whose proprietor is Mr. Amos ?. Merrill, of Boston. Mr. Merrill got one hundred and sixty-four Chinaman from Cali? fornia at $64 each, and while endorsing their ability as superior to that of the negroes, he still finds them contaminated by civilization to a degree which is not seen in their import? ed brethren. The neighboring lascinations of | city life are too much lor them. They do not work nearly as well as their brethren in -the virtuous interior, gamble more and run off on the slighest provocation. Mr. Merrill says: "The California China? men are tricky, but the imported fellow will work right along first-rate. You see it costs considerable to get them here, and when they run away it's an expensive thing. If you can engage Chinamen without their costing you anything except their wages, then Chinese la? bor with good management is as good as any man need hope for in the way of labor." From every other planter, working from thirty to one hundred and fifty Chinamen, ihe corres? pondent heard nothing but the highest praise. They worlc peaceably and comfortably along with the negroes, and though Ihe latter work faster, the Chinamen produce better work. The objection that Chinamen are not strong enough to plough is a mistake, as Bhown by the statements of several who have tested their capacity in that line. They are kind to their mules, careful of tho harness and farm Implements, and altogether first-class hands in every respect. A Southern Cotton Marena. Tte New Orleans Prices Current, in print? ing the crop est.mates of the New Orlenos Cotton Exchange, urges the importance of further organization with a view to the protection of the Southern cotton planter against loss arising from iiUCtuation3 in the price of the 3taple, caused by the crop re? ports of speculators and other interested persons. At present no official estimate of ihe pros? pects of a growing crop is forwarded to the Northern market, and the Balls and Bears have everything their own way. They pooh ! pooh ! a low estimate, or swear by an ab? surdly high one, as suits their own con? venience, while? the Southern planter, with only the Northern circulars to guide him, either bolds bis cotton too long or sends it too Benn to market. What the plantera need is a statement compiled from..trustworthy information, forwarded to a Southern cotton cemre by responsible men in every cotton growiDg State. New Orleans has, already, a Colton Exchange which might be made the nucleus of ihe new association, and if the State Agricultural Societies will take the matter in charge, a plan may be easily devised by which monthly reports can be made to New Orleans during the cotton sea? son. Each State might collect the informa? tion from its different counties, and forward the result to New Orleans, where the general statement could be compiled and published by telegraph. This prompt and accurate intelligence would make the planters inde? pendent of the Northern Rings. The South Carolina planters may, at once, help themselves and their fellow planters by sending to THE NEWS, every iwo weeks, a brief rfnn** nt tba condition ni J ?ko crops and the progress of the picking. These will enable us to prepare a semi? monthly report for this State, and we hope lo obtain similar reports from the other cot? ton States. The letters of tte intelligent correspondents of THE NEWS have given the public, this year, ample material for coming to a rational conclusion in regard to our crop prospects, and if they continue their reports, as requested, up to the end of the seasoD, South Carolina will have done her part in telling the whole truth about Kiog Cotton. What lt Coal? '?to Protect Iron. The tax imposed upon the people for the benefit of the iron manufacturers amounts to $38,000,000 or $40,000,000 a year. As the New York World explains, we pro? duce, annually, about 1,500,000 tons of bar, rolled and merchant ?roo. By class legisla? tion this production if? made to cost consum sumers, at 1 cent a pound or $25.40, gold, a lon more than the same quantity of foreign iron would cost if laid down here duly free. This is equal to $33,000,000 iii gold, or, with gold at 13 per cent, premium, $37,968, OOO. Here we have the bonu3 American consumers are paying yearly to Hie iron? masters of the country. An English price curtent of August 19, gives ?8.5s. as the price of "best crown "Stafford hire iron, free on board in Liver? pool ;" to which mast be added ?1.10s. for freight and charges to New York. This weuld. in our money $47.19, gold, per .bo, ?f, with gold at 13 per cent premi im, 553.32, currency. The price of American refined iron, common sizes, is quoted nt 579.52, which is a difference of $26.20 per loq. The calculation, therefore, of 1 cent, ?old, per pound in average, or $25,31, cur? rency, per ton, is, as will be seen, below the, actual facts. Every worker in iron io South Carolina pays 1 cent a pound, or $2 G a toe, for bis raw material more than he would have to pay if | the Free Trade Democratic party controlled the fiscal legislation of the country. The iron manufacturers will say, of course, that unless this tax be kept up, so as to keep out cheap foreign iron, they will lose money and must close their shops. Very well. It is more important that huudred3 of thousands of consumers should have cheap ?rou, than that a score of Pennsylvania manufacturers should accumulate enormous fortunes. Free Trade works for the benefit of the many, and Protection for the advantage of the few. A Trades Union In Coarr. An important suit as to the legal rights of | combinations of workingmen, which has just been tried in England before Justice Hannen, at Leeds, is reported by the Balti? more Sun. It appears that a number of workmen in an extensive glass bottle manu? factory-all members of ihe Glass Bottle Makers of Yorkshire United Trude Protec? tion Society-proceeded in a body to the owners or the works and demanded the dis? missal of ihe foreman. The partner who received the visit of this deputation testified that he complied with their request, not that he had the least funk to find wilh the fore? man, but because otherwise all the other employees would have left, greatly to the detriment of the business. The foreman thereupon began a snit for damages, and after hearing the evidence and argument?, Justice Hannen charged the jury, saying : .i n the injury was effected by untrue re? presentations, it was obvious there was a wroDg for which the defendants were an? swerable. If men combined together not for the purpose of injuring another, but for the protection only of their legitimate in? terests, they would not be liable." A verdict was rendered for the plaintif!, awarding him three hundred pounds damages. Sound Talk. The Walhalla Courier says: "We are willing to raise the standard of the 1 new departure,' but we also say, let us keep up and unfurl the standard of proportional representation ; and, if we should win the race, let us extend to the defeated the right of minority representation now claimed by us. It is both wisdom and justice." . Lit us Keep Q,niet for this Year at Least." [From the Edgefleld Advertiser.] We have but little doubt that too frequent conferences and conventions have seriously impeded and embarrassed the work of politi? cal readjustment in South Carolina, by keep? ing alive Eectlonal bitterness and jealousy. There are emergencies when the whole people should speak through their representatives, but constantly recurring political mass meet? ings and conventions are pernicious to the peace and morals of the country. Nor is it to be denied that these conventions are too often the scenes wherein political mountebanks and agitators strut their brief hour upou the stage and air their sta!? thoughts and staler vanity aDd dogmatism-men who had better be at home, looking after home interests and home pursuits. We are glad to see that the people are tired of political agitation and agitators, a JS are now inclined to meet together to con? sult about the moral an.; material interests of the country.
