Address RIORDAN. DAWSON & CO.. No. 149 East Bay. Charleston, S.O. FRIDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1S71. NEWS OF THE DAT. -Gold at New York, yesterday, closed at llfklzj. -The New York cotton market closed dull andhoavy; uplands 19* ce?' . sales 1074 bales. -At Liverpool cotton closed at 9Ja9$d. -It is said that Miss Nilsson lost $70,000 by the Chicago fire. -The drainage system for New Orleans, when carried out, will increase the limits cf that city to the size of Philadelphia. The space will be large enough to accommodate a population of two millions. -The organ o! the Ritualists', Ilia Church Weekly, is in fear lest the Baltimore conven? tion will adopt the sweeping resolutions of its committee on the ritual. But lt "bas not ibe patience to make an examination in detail of this report." Its complaint is that the priests are not allowed to do as they like in their own churches. -About a fortnight ago, when Mr. Disraeli made his famous speech about the condition of Queen Victoria, there was a controversy as to the words he really used. The reporters made the speech read that he said the Queen uwas physically incapacitated" irom ruling. Mr. Disraeli went much farther than this, and really said that she "was physically and moral? ly incapacitated," and upon being asked after? wards about It, replied that he not only used these words, but did so advisedly. -The Alexis ball in New York ls to be some? thing imposing. Blerstadt is decorating the Academy of Mu?:* f0r tao occasion. The ex? ecutive committee subscribed $20,000, and one thousand njkets are to be sold to approved persons a: ten dollars apiece. "The Grand Duke (we are told) is to be introduced to any number ol' aspiring young Adlee, but he Is to be allowed to choose all bis own partners. This will dc away with one cause of a good many heartburnings which have characterized previous gatherings of this sort." -A Wi jibing ton dispatch of the IS th last., to the ?Savannah News, says: "Gram's last Epistle to the Carolinians has caused consider? able aud excited comment here to-day. Every? body was taken by surprise. The more honest Republicans admit that the proclamation ls not Justified by any official information received from So.uh Carolina, but was brought about by the Influence of carpet-baggers, aided by such fanatics at Senator Scott, ol Pennsylva? nia, who brought a pressure to bear upon Grant by working ur on his ambition for a renomina? tion." -Tho cpening^f the new rail connection with Halifax, which took place formally on the 16th Instant, will shorten the present quickest time to England by six hours. The capitalists interested intend to still further diminish th-* length of the sea voyage by building a road from Truro to White Haven Bay at the extreme eastern end of Nova . Scotia, which ls about one hundred and [wen ty-flve miles nearer Liverpool iban Halifax. White'Haven ls a good haroor, with sufficient depth of water to accommodate large ocean steamers. A line of steamers from Liverpool to that place, connecting there with a railroad direct to New York, would be the shortest and quickest possible route between Engluntland the United States. -The San Francisco Bulletin says the num? ber of Chinese in the shoe trade of that city has doubled within the year. It also states that these emigrants entirely monopolize the slipper factories, employing a total of o ver two hundred men. The Chinese ehoe factories number about six, employing about 'TO hun? dred and forty men. The estimate, J course, does not Include those employed by white manufacturers. The Chinese have injured the white manufacturers, Inasmuch as they have taken all the second-class work from them. They are also driving all the second-class Eastern work out ot the market. It ls also said that they are now going into first-class work too. Haifa dozen of the old ones have failed during the year. The Chinese opera? tives receive trou $2 50 to $7 50 per week, the former wages being paid to beginners. -Washington advices state again that it is positively known that the President has finul'y decided to remove Murphy-that 's, to "accept his resignation." He dislikes to do it, but bas indicated to bis friend, the New York Collector, that he can no longer 'stand the pressure," and must sacrifice him, eren If it costs him his Long Branch cottage. Senator Morton and the other members of the 'Vene ral order" ring are delighted at the idea that a change is to take place. It ls bellew rd to be the purpose of the President to place a m in iu the customhouse with directions to perform the duties impartially under the immediate directions ot Secretary Boutwell, and that lie will positively decline to Interfere with their administration of the duties under aay/irciim Btances, unless positive evidence ot violation ol law ls shown. Who the new collector will be ls a matter of conjecture. -The Democracy ol'the country looks with admiration upon Texas, from which Slate comes the best news of the season. The sweep made over that broad country is thorough and irresistible, not a vestige ol the Radical organ? ization being lelt to represent misrule lu Con? gress. The news has been long in coming from the sunuy cities and the broad pasture lands or Texas, but it comes impressively a'. last, showing a Democratic majority ol forty thousand and a gain of three members of Con? gress. The entire Congressional delegation is nowa unit In political principle, solidly Demo? cratic; and this fact ls ail the more gratifying because of the Immense popular majority which sustains the representative of the people at home. In tho midst ol bayonet re? pression, proclamations ot' martial law, and political prosecutions along the eutiro range of Southern States, this triumph of the Democ? racy of Texas is all the more notable. The contest has been long and severe, the usual partisan Influences have been applied by the faction having the success of the administra? tion at heart, and the r?sult ls in every way a victory for the people of which they may well be proud. -A correspondent of *he New York Tribune gives the details of a recent interview with Brigham Young. He found him sitting in his private office, wrapped u;i in Bhawls, and sur rounded by several officials. Arter complain? ing ot a loss of appetite, Brigham scouted the suggestion lbat there was any danger of an outbreak of popular violence, in view of the recent proceedings against him. For his part, he had not felt the slightest uneasiness or ex? citement. He then commenced a long denun? ciation of the United States officers who had Interfered with bis placid repose. He thought their object was merely to make a reputation lor themselves. The Methodist Church came in for a good share of his animadver? sion. The result of these '-outrages,'' he felt assured, would be the complete discomfiture of the men who thus "sought to injure bia people- because ol their re? ligious views." He proposed to fight it out in the courts, but prolessed a determination to abide peaceably by their decision. It seemed to the correspondent, however, that no great laith can be placed in the Mormon promises I of quiet submission to the law. In his opinion, the real issue will come when an attempt is made to imprison any leading Mormon. He does not believe that Young will ever submit to in? carceration. Ol course it would be the veriest insanity on the part of his tallowers to under? take forcible resistance. But the writer thinks they -vould not stop to consider consequen? ces wuen their beloved and trusted leaders were threatened with bodily indignities. Therelore, although all is peace and quietness now, lt Is by no means certain that this calm .loe; not portend a storm. The Subscription for the Chlctgo Suf? ferers. The subscriptions already received at his office for the relief of the Chicago sufferers, warrant the (-xpec'ation that, if opportunity be given, the entire contribution from citizens of Charleston will be fully equal in amount to what bas been given by some cf our sister cities of the South. Our list will, therefore, remain open until to? night, when it will be finally closed. We hope that all who may desire to con? tribute, and have not already done so, will leave their subscriptions in the course of the day, nt THE NEWS Office, without delay. The Cautionary Storm Signal. The Signal Service of the United States, to whom, a year ago, was entrusted the or? ganization of a Weather Telegraphic and Storm Signal Systc :, have completed ar? rangements for making known, by telegram and signal, the approach and force of storms and violent gales of wind; and the chief Signal Officer bas jast issued a small pam? phlet, which fully describes the signals to be employed by bis corps of observer-sergeants at the various stations. It is the design of this publication to afford to the seaman, the merchant and every weather student the meteoric information necessary to enable them to make good use of the weather reports and bulletins with which, in a few months, the eye of every American who reads the newspapers bas be? come familiar, and, consequently, to turn to account the cautionary signal displayed at any point threatened by dangerous winds. The science of meteorology, or meteorice, has always struggled under the great disad? vantage of having the whole world to ex? plore, and is yet in its infar.cy. It cannot, therefore, be expected that the precision of the more favored sciences shall be at once attained, and the public should' be disposed to make allowance for the discrepancies that may possibly occur between predictions and results. The chief Signal Officer, aware of the immense difficulty of obtaining un? erring and uniform accuracy in the display of signals, and anxious to aid the public as much us possible in forming a correct esti? mate of coming changes, take great pains to state clearly \h&t jcftenever a signal is hoisted it is strictly and solely cautionary, and is only designed as a warning of proba? ble danger. It calls for the exercise of the local knowledge and diligent study of the experienced seaman, that he may guard against danger in time. Disastrous and ex? tensive storms rarely fail to give premonition to every one who carefully observes the daily rise and fall of the quicksilver in the barom? eter. The cautionary signal, combined with the weather reports, from which it is de? duced, cannot full to convey to all who are really concerned in knowing the future wea? ther, a necessary warning of the danger that is probably approaching. The signal which will be displayed in Charleston, after the 21kl instant, whenever necessary, is a square red flag, with a square ceutre of black, for denoting daDger by day, and a red lantern to denote dunger by night. It is highly important lor the public fully and at once to know that the Signal Office will display only one signal, and that oue signal will bc elevated only in the case of probable danger. There will be no safety signal. We give below, however, the official text, which, if carefully weighed and pondered, can leave no uncertainty in the mind of any one, as to the meaning and use of the signal : THE CAUTIONARY SIGNAL.-The Cautionary Signal of the Signal Service, United Stales army-a red flag with black square lo the cen? tre by day, and u red light by uight-displayed at the office ot tue observer, aud oilier promi? nent .places throughout any city, signifies : 1. That from the iulorinatiou hud at the Central office, in Washington, a probability of stormy cr dangerous weutuer lia- been deduced for ihe port or place at which the Cautionary Sigual is displayed, or lu that vicinity. 2. That the danger appears to be su trreat as to demand precaution on the part of naviga? tors and others interested-such as an exami? nation ol' vessels or other structures to be en? dangered by a storm-the inspection ol'crews, rigging, &c, aud general preparation lor rough weather. 3. It calls fur trequent examination of local barometers and other instruments, by ship captains, or others iuteresied, and thu study ot local signs ol the weather, us clouds, &c, &c. By this means those who are expert may often be confirmed as io the need ol ihe pre? caution lo which Ihe Cautionary Signal calls attention, or may determine that tue danger is over-estimated or past. This red flag or red light, known as the Cautionary Signal, is displayed when ihe in? formation in the possession of the oflice in? duces tho belief that dangerous winds are approaching. This term, dangerous wind?, has a mean? ing varying somewhat with tho locality in which the winds occur. Thus, the severe gales of the Atlantic Ocean, which some? times attain the hurricane velocity of 50, GO or 70 miles un hour, ure seldom equalled on the lakes. But on the lake3, where the sea room is limited, winds that are reported from the lake coast as "brisk," (i. e., from 15 to 25 miles an hour, in which a ship on the ocean would curry all her canvass,) fre? quently become dangerous ;o navigation. Moreover, it is important to remember, also, that the direction of the wind often deter? mines whether it is to be dreaded. Experi? ence demonstrates that most danger is to be apprehended when the wind is blowing on to a lee shore. The Cautionary Signal might, therefore, be properly expected only for ports thus threatened. For inland and well sheltered points, as Baltimore and Philadel? phia, this distinction cannot be easily made. It has, therefore, been decided that the Cau? tionary Signal shall be hoiBted whenever the winds are expected to be as high as twenty-five miles an hour, and to continue at that velocity for several hours, within a radius of one hundred miles of the station. It is hoped that eventually it will be practicable to add a second signal, giving warning of severe gales, and others are con? templated as experience shall justify them. In addition to the Cautionary Signal above described, it is proposed to furnish daily to the press a list of the ports at which Cau? tionary Signals have been ordered to be dis? played, or at which they are ordered down. Each signal, as now used, is expected to hold good for the space of eight hours from the time at idiich it was hoisted. When no signal is displayed, it indicates that the office has no knowledge of any approaching danger sufficient to justify the issue of a storm warning. But as this is not only the case when really no danger exists, but also, in many cases, may be the consequence of the failure of the telegraphic connection of the Central office at Washington with out? lying stations, the absence of the Cautionary Signal should not lead the mariner to relax bis watchfulness of the weather, nor to ne? glect to obtain the latest and fullest infor matiou from the station observers at the port in which he may be, and elsewhere. To obtain the most exact information, let him consult the "Weather Bulletin," and Weather Map, which may be found in the room3 of the Chamber of Commerce. These, with the statements of the probable weather reports, printed each morning in THE NEWS, will give him all the data which can at pres? ent be supplied. Noble Word?. No city in this country has ever been so completely obliterated by fire as was the once beautiful capital of our State, at the close of the war. We all know the ruthless hands which wrought this awful deed. Re? membering the region whence the incendi? ary brigades of Sherman were drawn, we can appreciate the magnanimity of the fol? lowing editorial from a Columbia contempo? rary: [From the Columbia Pbcenlx ] COLUMBIA AND CHICAGO. We have read, with painful Interest, of the great disaster which has befallen the rich and growing City of Chicago. This community, like other communities In the land, Is not un mindful of the sufferings and bereavements of the people of Chicago. Indeed, there ls, perhaps, no other city tn the United States where there has been a keener appreciation of the fate of Chicago than in Columbia. Many there are here and along the line ol Sherman's march who have a bitter memory of burning towns, cities and larm-houses. Many there are here who know what lt Is to be homeless and penniless-to be plunged, in a moment, into the waters of want and humiliation. But this is past. For this there may bare been many in Chicago who were responsible. But not so was lt with many others. But let this pass "Vengeance Is mine-I will repay-saith the Lord." Let us now recognize the claims of religion and the ties of a common humanity, and those who can, let them stretch forth the band of help to the afflicted people of Chicago and the Northwest. Here, we are,'as a gene? ral rule, poor. Having, not long since, emerg? ed from flames kindred to those which lalely passed over Chicago, most ot us carl give scarcely more .than our sympathies. But some there are who can doubtless give more. Let these who cannot withhold their contri? butions. This may not be obligatory upon a community like ours; but lt would be gene? rous and magnanimous. It would be human to withhold, but it ls divine to forgive and give.* We learn that the Masons of Columbia have Bent a donation to their brethren in Chicago. This is well. Thus lar Columbia has been si? lent. We cannot give much, but what our cit? izens can give should be given promptly and freely. Martial Law In Marlon. The writ of habeas corpus is suspended In Marion County by President Grant. But the Radical Senator from Marion emphati? cally denies, in the following letter, that any Ku-Klux outrages have been committed in the county : OFFICE OF LAND COMMISSIONER. I COLUMBIA, S.
