NEWS OF THE DAT. -Gold closed yesterday at 14jal4). -In New York cotton closed' quiet; uplands 19?; sales 1653 bales. -In Liverpool cotton closed quiet and steady; uplands 9jd, Orleans lOd; sales 12,000 baies. -Mrs. Wharton, the Baltimore poisoner, ls to be tried at Annapolis, and the trial has been postponed until November. -Dr. Jessen and Mellie. Mestorf, two Ger- J man ladies, have received grants of money from the Senate of Hamburg to enable them to visit England and Italy for scientific pur? poses. -Berlin is said to be just now crowded with teachers of French, the whole number being estimated at nearly fifteen hundred; while in Paris a great many of the people have learned, much against their will, to understand Ger? man. -It ls stated that there- ie hardly a man In Corsica who would not gladly give his last drop of blood for the advancement of any per? son bearing the name of Bonaparte. The Cor? sicans still reverence the name of the first Napoleon, whom they speak of as "our God? like lellow-conntryman, and the greatest of all Corsican heroes." -The Duke Alexis is a handsome young man, and bears a more striking likeness to his grandfather than to the present Czar. He is a great smoker and fine horseman; a despe? rate flirt; dislikes Englishmen; ls fond Ol las quenet and rouge et noir; never drinks beer; | is an early riser, no matter what time he re? tires; has been a most obedient son, and doesn't believe that the world was created ex? clusively for the gratification of Czars. So they say. ' -Slr WUllam Armstrong has made a propo? sition to the men on strike in Newcastle, England, to resume work for the present at j the rate of fifty-seven hours per week, ll the ~> mtiers will agree to reduce t he hours to flity four per week at the beginning of next year. This seems to be fair, and will eventually give the workmen all they have been contending for. The masters have held out against fixing the standard of Ume for labor at fifty-four | hours per week while unfinished contracts were on hand. The proposed arrangement will eaable them to finish their contracts this year, and start the new year with the new nine honr rule. - The reform delegates to the New Yotk Democratic State Convention issue an address to the Democratic voters of the city. They rehearse the proceedings of the late conreo Hon at Rochester, claiming that they obtained j a success over Tammany there, urge all bon-11 est Democrats to nominate men ot the highest character for intelligence and integrity for the I, Legislature, having no doubt of their ability to ( elect them by overwhelming majorities, thus assuring the utter and speedy downfall of the Tammany ring, then some portion of the sto? len millions may be recovered. They close by saying: "Let us pledge ourselves to vindicate 1 and redeem the honor ot the Democratic I party, and use every means, through the bal- j lot-box and the courts, to bring tbe criminals i who disgrace our party to condign punish- , ment." T. ? address is signed by the whole re- j form delegation. -Letters from Strasbourg, and other places in the two newly-conquered provinces, Inform tn that the flow of emigration from those parts is on the increase. The Alsatians and Lor- 1 ralnlans will not be Germanized, and sooner ( than live under German rule, they are wllllog < to quit the land made dear to them by all the \ associations which bind people to the land of ? their nativity, in order to put a stop to this depopulation of two of the fairest provinces of the new German Empire, the authorities have adopted and revived various measures which must, to some extent, check the ebbing tide. The price of passports, without which no one can leave these provinces for a foreign country, ' has been raised; a French regulation of 1 1866, but which for a long time vas obso- < lete, requiring that persons desirous ot emi? grating, before receiving their passports, should prove that ail their pecuniary obliga? tions were satisfied, has been again revived, and ls now strictly enforced; and the privileges hitherto enjoyed by m|ffraUoo ftgents "av v oeen withdrawn, and until further orders they must discontinue the business in which they were engaged. When lt has been found necessary to adop. such stringent measures as these to keep the people at home, the difficult task which Prince Bismarck and his august sovereign have before them in "reconstruct? ing'' their new acquisitions may be readily imagined. -The organization of ihe French army has progressed to a somewhat favorable conclu? sion, when the shattered condition of France ls taken into consideration. While the rest ol the continent Is engaged In bringing out its full strength of men and materiel wlih a view to warlike complications, France, too, under the impetus of her new military administra? tion ls gathering in camps the raw material destined to undergo the transformation into soldiers. It is estimated that the French Minister of War has at his command no less than 700.010 men at the present time, subdivided into the regular troops, the army of reserve and the National Guard, ready tor ihe field. A number of camps are lu process of formation, of which the chief, at Botirge.-, will contain lf.0,000 racu, who will be thoroughly drilled In artillery ex? ercises. A camp south of Paris will be form? ed with from 100,000 to 120,000 men. Another camp, In the vicinity ol Rennes, will include about 40,000 men, of whom about one-third are intended for the artillery service, and who will be duly drilled in that practice. A fourth camp is contemplated at the plain ot Tou? louse, comprising 20.000 or 40,000 men, which will receive, mainly, the recruits Irom the middle ol France belonging to the classes of the years 1870 and 1871. These are the ele? menta of military strength with which France, emerging from her recent disasters, hopes to maintain her military rank among the great powers of Europe. -A late London paper gives the details of a case which one would scarcely suppose could occur in the nineteenth century and in a civil Ized country. An Irish gentleman, named Mr Alfred Handers, who ls possessed of a property of $20,000 a year, and who ls a partner of the well-knowa firm of Mandera A Ca, brewers, at the Instance of his brother and hts own wife, was placed In a private lunatic asylum at Fing, lass In April, 18C9, and still remained in con? finement there on the 18th of August last, al? though lhere 1B every reason lo believe that he ls quite sane. During the whole period of bis Incarceration.extendlng through twenty-seven months, he was not visited either by his broth? er or his wife. Alter a long time he contrived to communicate with his solicitor, a Mr. Lewis, who went to the asylum and demanded an In? terview with him, but was refused by Dr. Dun? can, the proprietor. A clerk of Mr. Lewis haviDg succeeded in obtalnlog an Interview with Mr. Mandera, the latter was thereafter de? barred from takiog exercise In the pleasure grounds. Finally, on the 13th of August, a writ ol habeas corpus was taken out directing Dr. Duncan to produce his prisoner, BO lhat the necessary steps might be taken for determin? ing his mental condition and testing the le? gality of his confinement. At the time of the application for the writ, letters from Mr. Man? dera that were sensible and intelligently writ? ten were read, and also the affidavits of two keepera who had attended the unfortunate man for several months, and both of whom testified that he was perfectly sane. The Ku-Klux Falsehoods. After an incubation of several days, the Columbia Union has batched a reply to tbe charge that all it> most striking stories of Ku-Klux violence bave been shown to be untrue. We gave six ?prominent examples of deliberate falsificador), on the part of the Union, or its correspondente, to whictfcate gorical statement Ibe following answer is made: "1. Ben Hare ?rcs diabolically murdered In Newberry County. In August last, by a party of '"night ridera." as stated in this journal. How does Tut: NEWS know that ihe men ar? rested tor the crime are guilty? They have not yet been tried. Did we say they were "white night riders ?" What we aimed at was to state the lact that the mttrder was commit? ted, and even this fact TUE NEWS does not dare deny. ?.2. Bird Sims alias McClure was murdered in Chester, as staled by us, but we never men? tioned the name of Ku-Klux as connected with the affair, and challenge THE NEWS to f?rove to the contrary. Whether McClure's atber In-law was guilty ol the offence remains to be seen. "3. Lewis Thompson, a colored preacher, was most foully murdered near Jeter's planta? tion, on Tyger River, his body being lett by the villains to decompose in the broad sunlight for nearly a month. We saw and conversed with the brother of ihe murdered man, and, from other evidences in our possession, are satisfied tbat the story of THE NEWS about an "Investigation," in which it was lound that the colored men murdered Mr. Thompson, ls a sheer fabrication, gotten up doubtless In TUE NEWS office. The colored friends of Thomp? son were prevented, by Ku-Klux terrorism, from according his body a Christian burial, and THE CHARLESTON NEWS is the Journal tbat lifts up its voice In defence of such devils In? carnate as those who committed Ibis cowardly and Inhuman deed. "A. It was charged that the Ku-Klux were riding in Fairfield County, and up to this date said charge has never been disproved, al? though the Winnsboro' Keics bas made several ineffectual attempts to do so. The most thai journal could say was lhat lt had never heard of such riding. However, this ls ihe kind of Sroot necessary to establish a point with TUE EW8. We expect the irutb or falsity of the charge that KuKluxwe.e riding In Fairlie!! County will be established to Hie satisfaction ot even THE NEWS belore many more months pass. "The rest of tbe cases enumerated are of | the same nature as ibe foregoing, except they are of still less importance. We also publish? ed Hie fact of ihe several raids upon the Jail In Union Count}-, when nearly a score of col? ored victims were sacrificed by these bosom friends of Tun NEWS. The attack upon Sim? son Young-the murder of the Melton family -and the outrages in Spananburg-all bav? appeared in ibis journal, and at the time ol heir publication none doubled their veracity nore tl an TUE NEWS." The rejoinder to these barefaced endeav? ors to browbeat this paper may be made as conclusive a9 the original charge. 1. Three Degroe3, named Ed. Calmes, Dave Whitmore and Dolph Kinari!, lie in Newberry jail, awaiting their trial for ihe murder of Ben Hare. We do not prejudge ;hem. The evidence wa3 strong enough to lusiify their arrest, and, until these Radical negroes are proved to be innocent, the us? inions of the Union tbat Hare wa9 killed jy Ku-Klux are only fresh evidence of the Malignity with which it attacks ihe wbite Democrats of the State. 2. For the statement that McClure was nurderod by his wife's father, now lying in chester jail, we have the authority of the Chester Reporter. The colums of the Union ure proof enough that th? responsibility of | ;be crime was placed upon the Ku-Klux. 3. For the statement thal Lewis Tbomp-1 I jon was murdered by the colored people, for social reasons, we have the authority of the Union Times. Thati3 sufficient. 4. Against the statement of the Winns? boro' News, that lhere are co Ku-Klux in Fairfield County, the Union sets the word )f its anonymous correspondent, whom the ?Vinnsboro' Nercs has publicly branded as a 11 wilful liar. J f The "rest o? cageg en?t?erat?d"-say8 ^e K-'ton-are of "the same nature" as the foregoing "except that they are of less im? portance,'' Now it happens that the other :ases named by us were two, viz: (1.) the alleged attempt of a band of Ku-Klux to murder a colored Republican in Edgeiield, md (2) the whipping by the Ku-Klux or u white man named Rytenburger in Sumter County. We gave (1) Ihe affidavits of twenty citizens of Edgeiield County declaring thal no such outrage woe commilted. Besides Ibis, we gave the affidavit of the colored man who was said to have been attacked, in which he swears that no such attack was made, ar"v that be had heard of no lawless act in his neighborhood. We gave (2) the Sumter Xews and the Sumter Watchman us our authority for the statement tbat Rytenbur? ger v*as neither whipped nor threatened to whipped. In these two cases, as i? (be four preceding, we couvicted Ibe Union, or its anonymous correspondent-, of down? right falsehood. They are, ti3 the Union says, "of the same nature'' as all its Ku Klux jams; and us ihey are ouly two fuliri cations, while those which il vainly attempts to explain are four in number, it naturally speaks of its deformed twins as of "les3 "importance." As a last blow the Union quotes "ihe "murder of the Melton family" a3 a vera? cious Ku-Klux crime. We think that the tallowing card, which appears in tbe Union of Tuesday, disposes of this last outrage: CUKRAW, S. C..|Septembor 14, 1871. MT. L. C. Carpenter, Editor of Duly Union, Columbia. & C.: DEAR Sm-We have to dny seen a copy of your paper ol ihe 21st of Juiv lust, in which we notice a communication signed "GU," and dated "Chesterfield County, s. ?., July 17, 1S7I." We do not propose to notice thc many false statements contained In thai article, lor there ls scarcely a single word ol (ruth in Hie whoie of it: but there is one 8tat?-uirni which, us gcod citizens, having ihe welfare of the whola timmunity at heart, we desire to notice, and that ia this: "The murderers of this (the Mel? ton) family are known here to every Democrat and to many Republicans." Now, we pro? nounce this statement utterly and unquali? fiedly false, for we are all Democrats, and none of us know anything whatever as to who waa the murderers of the Meltons, and we are well satisfied that the statement is a gross libel, not only upon "every Democrat." but also upon "many Republicans" of this county. Our main object, however, is to learn Irom you who the aui hor of this communication is, in order that we may have him bound over to testily at the next term of the Court of Ses? sions, in regard to this subject, about which he seems to know so much, so that the authors of this horrible tragedy may be brought to trial. A. MCQUEEN, HrNBT Md VER, W. L. T. PRINCE, P. F. SPOFFORD, A. M. LOWRY, STEPHEN JACKSON', G. W. DCVALL. The editor of tbe Union refuses to give the name of his correspondent. Of course. Any man is good enough to slander the citizens of Chesterfield County. The Union will print any statement, however outrageous, BO long as it reflects upon white men who are not Radicals. But we do not despair. Let the good people of the State take the pains to nail every lie as it comes fresh from the mint in Columbia, and the Union will soon be as impotent as it already is disreputable ! The Edgefield and Laurens Railroad. A meeting of the citizens of Edgefield Conn ty was held at the courthouse on sales day, in October, to take into consideration the feasibility of constructing a railroad from Augusta, Ga., via Edgefield Court? house, to Laurensville, S. C. A large num? ber of citizens were present, all of whom appeared to take a deep interest in the pro? ceedings. Ex-Governor Bonham presided, and addresses were delivered by Major W. T. Gary, Major John E Bacon, General M. C. Butler, General Duoovant and others, and the following resolutions were adopted : "Resolved, That we, the cilizens cf Edgefield Count}-, in convention assembled, concurring in the belief that there 1B a necessity for a railroad from Aiken, some point on the Char? lotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroad, south ot the Pine House, or Augusta, Ga., via Edge field Courthouse to Laurens Courthouse, here? by express our willingness to heartily co-ope? rate with all parties Interested for the early r mpletlon of this enterprise. "Resolved, That we hereby assent to the ex? tension of this road to Sparenburg Court? house, or any point beyond Laurens Court? house, which may, by those Interested in this enterprise, be deemed advisable. "Resolved, That we hereby pledge ourselves, except In extraordinary cases, to grant to this enterprise the right or way over our lands. "Resolved, That there Is a necessity for a convention of all persons interested In the building of this railroad. "Resolved, That we hereby call said conven ventlon to meet In Columbia, S. C., at 10 o'clock, A. M.. cn Friday. 10th November, 1671, to take Into consideration all matters pertaining to the building of this railroad, and to adopt such measures as may be necessary to secure its early completion. "Resolved, That a committee of twenty-one be appointed to nominate eight delegates to Bald convention from the County of Edgefield. "Resolved, That we Invite the citizens of Chatleston, Spartanburg. Laurens, Abbeville and Newberry to meet us lu said con ven lion. "Resolved, That the several towns, villages and neighborhoods in the reFpective counties, along the route, be requested to send each five delegates to Bald convention. "Resolved, Thal the Clly of Augusta be Invi? ted tosend seven delegates to Bald convention. "Resolved, That the Town of Ai..en be re? quested lo send seven delegates." The committee to represent Edgefield County, as nominated by the committee of twenty-eight, consists of ihe following gen? tlemen : W. T. Garv, (chairman.) John E. Bacon, A. P. Butler, D* C. Tompkins. J. H. Jennings, O. Sheppard, M. L. Bonham, Thomas Jones. Al? ?males-S. W. Nicholson, D. K. Durisoe. H. \. Shaw, R. Timmerman, E. A. Searles, John }. I anler, Lewis Jones, A. J. Sm) ly. We presume that, in due time, a formal nvitation to take part in the proceedings of he Columbia Railroad Convention will be ixtended to the City or Charleston, and we lope thut delegates will be appointed who ire conversant with railroad affairs and mow what is required to be done for the iromotion of the commercial interests of his port. Abbeville, Laurens and other lounties have already appointed their dele jatee, and Charleston cannot afford to be lack ward in co-operating in any practicable )roject for facilitating inter-communication, ind for developing the resources of the State. "Classical Education." This is tho lille of a short paper, in pamphlet brm, Issued from the press of Messrs. Walker, Svans & Cogswell. The author briefly reviews he controversy, on the advantages to be de ived from the ?tudy of the ancient languages, >etween two of the most distinguished schol? es that South Carolina has ever produced, Hugh S. Legare and Mr. Grirake, and suggests .hat a republication of their weil considered opinions on classical learning nrght not be nit of place now that the great questions be ,ween the North and South seem to be set .led, and trade is filling the vacuum created )y the war. The inordiuate interest ol late 30stoweu upon scientific and mathematical studies, in the author's estimation, also calls Tor an exposition of the useful and refining effect of the study of the ancient writers, to enable us not to confound cultivation and re? finement with effeminacy and weakness; but rather, by eliciting menial and moral as well EIS physical activity, to contribute still more fairly and lully to our jet undeveloped national power and grandeur. To our present methods of classical instruction, the author makes Borne objections, and closes his paper with some valuable suggestions wlih a view to the removal of some of these obstacles. The essay ls oriel and interesting, and ls written with a clearness which indicates the ability ol' the author. ^osttttcr's Bitters. ^39-THE WARNING HAS BEEN HEEDED.-Since the exposure of the attempts made by certalu unscrupulous local dealers, to palm o' their coarse astr.ngen's, made from cueapand Impure ma erlals. lu the place of the great national IOLIC, HOSTtTTER'S STOMACH BITTER-, public opinion has se. strongly against these empirics and their preparations.
