Address RIORDAN. DAWSON A CO.. No. 149 Ea?t, Bay. Charleston. S.C. WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1871, NEWS OF THE DAT. -Gold at New York, yesterday, closed at 15. -The New York cotton market closed un? settled and lower; uplands 20?c. Sales 1751 bales. -At Liverpool cotton closed quiet and steady; uplands 9?d. Sales 9000 bales. -Alfred E. Buck, ex-member ot Congress from Alabama, has been appointed deputy col? lector ot customs at Mobile. -The Springfield BepubMcan says: "The women's cause ls suffering more to-oay from the connection of Butler's name with lt, than it could from a dozen Mrs. Woodhulls with their four-and-twenty hutbands*." -The La Crosse Democrat reports the water so low in the Mississippi River that steamboats have to keep whistling to keep cows out of the channel. Many captains are having cow? catchers put on their boats. This is about the thinnest river yet discovered. -The title of prince which has been con lerredupon Bismarck, the German Chancel? lor, will not descend to his children. Bis? marck desired that it should be a personal title for himself and his wife only. His poster? ity will retain the original family title of count. -The first lot of dry gocds imported from Europe direct bj SL Louis, and received under the bonded car regulations, arrived in that city on the 13th, and was received with jubila? tion and copious Inrinl?onoo In wino Ttmp from Glasgow, Scotland, twenty-six days. There was three dayV detention In New York. - -According to the journals of India, the I Nawab of Nagim, ot Moorshedabad, is in a de? plorable way. He has a family ol forty-two children, of whom nineteen are unrnarrhd princesses. These daughters must be married to royal personages, and where to lind these J royal personages is what troubles the poor I Nawab. -The reported Intended marriage of King j Charles, of Sweden, to a daughter of the King of Denmark will pr?sent-an odd complication I of relationship if the marriage should take place. The King of Sweden's daughter ls al? ready manied to the King of Denmark's son; the new bridegroom will, therefore, become his own daughter's brother-in-law, and the Danish drown Prince will bethe son of his own sister. ? - Fashion ? Paris Is never al a loss to turn every sensation lo advantage. Even the sor rows and disasters which have lately overta ken that city have furnished Us exponents with something which may be made useful. I Dry goods and artificial flowers of a color called Paris bruie, Angkise, "Paris burned," ls now the fashion in the French capital, whose motto seems to be, notwithstanding all reverses, "I'll be gay and happy still." -An address has been issued by the Ger? man-American Republicans ot New York City, Inviting their Democratic brethren to co-ope rate with them In the work of local reform. The position they adopt lar: Let us continue to be Republican or Democratic in all that con? cerns the relations of the State to Ihe country at large, but in disposing of the government ot j this great city, let us have but one end-to se- j cure the best men we can tine!. -Ex-Governor Hamilton, ol Texas, snys he j never 6aw any of the members of I he present I State government steal anything; but "when we see a poor, miserable cuss, who never had I $150 in his life, come to Austin to borrow mo ney to pay his expenses, and presently find him losing a thousand dollars a night at faro, I driving around in a fancy team, making li- I quor bills, wine bills, and all sorts of bills, and I ' buying a buggy and fine horses to go home in, j j we know he is a thief as well as if we had seen I him steal." -The fatal explosion o? toy torpedoes io 11 New York on the 14:h instant, recalls one pre- j ! clsely similar which occurred in Berlin, Prus- i sis, some three or four years ago. On that j i occasion a large case filled with fulminating ? powder for the toys known os parler pistol-, j which some porters were unloading from a I lreight car Into an express wagon, had explo? ded with terrific effect, Fhalteiing horses and wagon, killing two men on the spot, wounding others and wrecking everything in the neigh? borhood. The out-of-town firm who forwarded the packages were, on investigation, lound to I ; have neglected the proper "declaration" of 11 their dangerous invoice, and had lo take the I consequences. They had to pay ruinous dam? ages to the families ol the unfortunate porters, and heavy fines to the State, and were impris oned-in shoit, were financially and racially 11 weU-nigh ruined. Tr.ls precedent points its j own moral, applicable in the New York case. I j -A dispatch from Waverley, Va., September j 15th, to the Richmond, Va, Dispatch, gives I ' the following: "Soon after the second j down freight train of the Atlantic, Mississippi 1 and Ohio Railroad passed Waverley Station to- j day, engineer Catlett discovered a negro man : about a hundred yards ahead of them holding a boy on the track. Catlett as soon as he saw i the situation, blew down brakes and reversed I ! his engine, but the man held on until the en? gine was within twenty steps of them, when he jumped off, leaving the boy, who, In try? ing to follow, wa? run over and literally cut to pieces, both arms and both legs beiDg mashed I off, leaving bis body a horribly mutilated mass. The train was stopped at once, when it was found that the man had tied the boy to the rail with a rope hardly sis teet long, and had held him on the opposite side of the track to the one on which the rope was tied until the train approached, with the above result. The negro's name was Mack Colbert, and ihe boy was his stepson. He said he lied the boy there to whip him, but his actions Irom the first in? dicated that his intention was murder, and nothing less-the track being an air-line for more tJfjo twenty-five miles in the direction from whreh -the train came. The fiend was left in charge of Mr. Hart and several others, and tas doubtless beeB locked up. The toy was still breathing when the train ?eft, but was unconscious, and ere this is dead."' The Population of South Carolina, Tte advance sheets of the United States Census of 1870, sent to the press by the Su? perintendent of Census, contain tables show? ing the population of the States and Terri? tories, the number of whites and blacks in each county, and the number Of foreign-born citizens. From these tables the materials are obtained for the following condensed statements with respect to Sooth Carolina TABLE I-TOTAL POPULATION. COUNTIES. 1S70. I 1860. I 1850. Abbevile. ...

From 1840 to 1850 the population of the State increased 74,109, or 12.46 per cent., and from 1850 to 1860 the increase was 35,201, or 5.26 per ceL'..; but the ten years ending in 1870-covering the period of the Confederate war-show an increase of only 1S98, or 0.26 per cent To account for this result, we have the abnormal mortality caused by the war, the diminished number of births during the war, and the emigra? tion from the State after the war. Taking the population by counties, it is seen that, as compared with 16*60, there is a small increase of population in Chest* r. Clarendon, Marion, Greenville and Lan? caster, a fair increase in Anderson, Edge Held and York, and a large increase in Barnwell, Darlington and Uorry. Rich land County, including the City of Columbia gains 4718, and Charleston County gains 18,763. Williamsburg is neither richer nor poorer, having precisely the same pop?la tion as in 1860. The counties of Aurville, Chesterfield, Lauren?, Newberry, Spartan (.ur,- aad Sumter bavo DOW n smaller popu lation than they had in 1850, but the decrease in Sumter is accounted for by the creation of Clarendon County out or her territory be tween 1850 and 1S60-during the last de eade Sumter has increased in population The counties of Beaufort, Colleton, Fair Held, Georgetown, Kershaw and Orange burg have a smaller population than they had thirty years ago. As compared with 1840, Beaufort, loses 56M, Colleton 16,500, Georgetown 5144, and Oraogebunj 8031. TA BLS 11-WBITE POPULATION. 1870. 1860. 1850. I 1:4J.

[415.814 1412.320 1393.944 From 1850 to 1860 the gain in colored population was 18,376, or 4.66 per cent., but from 1860 to 1870 the gain was only 3494, or 0.84 percent. As compared with 1850 the variation in most of the counties is very small. Barnwell County, however, in the 20 years, has gained 7827, or 54 per cent. The mo3t remarkable changes have taken place during the ten yeare from 1860 to 1870. Beaufort has lost 4289, or 12 per cent. ; Colleton has lost 16,169, or 49 per cent ; Georgetown has lost 4904, or 20 per cent., and Orangeburg has lost 5632, or 34 percent This loss js easily accounted for. Charleston County gains 19,691, or 48 per cent, on the colored population of the county in I860; Richland (including the City of Columbia) gains 3733, or 32 per cent., and Darlington gains 4217, er 35 per cent. The negroes naturally swarm to the cities and towns; hence the enormous gain of pop? ulation in Charleston and Columbia. We do not see, however, any indication that the colored people are moving towards the sea? board. As we have shown, the most popu I lons coast counties show a large falling off, while nearly all .the interior counties show a marked increase. In addition to the white and colored pop? ulation, ?south Carolina boasts of 124 In? dians, an increase of 3C, and has only 1 Heathen Chinoe. Of the 705, O'>0 souls forming the total population of Sooth Carolina, 697,532 are native bom, and 8074 are foreign born. Bat 16,449 of our citizens have one or both parents foreign. We have no, idea that the United States census is without fault. There must neces? sarily be some inaccuracies. But, taking it as a whole, it forms the most trustworthy statistical report in our possession, and is the foundation of all calculations relating to the condition and progress of the country. We have, therefore, endeavored to give the public, in a handy shape, the information which the census contains about this State. Too Tough. Half-weeping and half-swearing, the Co? lumbia Union declares that as much 11 out " rage and persecution " are now carried on in Spartanburg as there has been at any time during the past six months. On the other side, we have the published statement of twenty-five citizens of Spartanburg Coun? ty, including the members of the State Leg? islature, thc United States commissioner and the United States assessor, who say: "We have made diligent inquiry, and have been unable to hear of a single outrage having been committed in this county since your com? mittee ?eft lt. On the contrary, the county is in a state ot profound peace and quiet." The notorious tergiversation of the Union is fairly pitted against the recognized trust? worthiness of men like General Cannon and Senator Foster. As an inevitable cons?? quence, all the Ku-Klux yarns of the Union are taken with many grains of salt It may be easy for the ostriches of the Ku-Klux committee to " digest " their evidence, as promised, but the romances of the Union are rather too tough.
