DosweU is president The entries are by Phil. Haxall, Thomas Crouch and W. A. Lamkln. -The condition of Queen Victoria Is more critical than the world has been allowed to suppose, If we may credit the report which re? presents her illness as liable to result in death at any hour. The worst that bas heretofore been anticipated has been an affection of body or mind, or of both, which would require the establishment of a regency and thus prepare toe way, by easy steps, for the accession of Ute Prince of Wales to the thorne. The death of j the Queen, whl?lj ls now brought alarmingly near hy anticipation, would precipitate matters j In a manner highly dangerous to all immedi? ately concerned. -Mr. Charles O'Conor having accepted the trust tendered him by the New York State's Attorney, General Champlain, ot prosecuting the members of the New York city ring, has associated with himself as counsel Hon. Wm. M. Evarts, Democrat, and Wheeler II. Peck? ham, Esq., and ex-Judge Ernott, Republicans. To the Interviewers Mr. O'Conor i represent? ed aa expressing the intention of prosecuting the delinquents with vigor. The Times says that criminal proceedings wiU begin with the case of Mr. Tweed, against whom M Incontro? vertible evidence" ls supposed to have been obtained by an investigation of the books ot the Tenth National (ring; Bank. The case ot Xayor Hall is now undergoing investigation by the grand jory. -Of the horrors of the Chicago fire, a corres? pondent writes the following, describing a scene on the edge of the lake: On every yard Ol the b?ach and water fell flaming fagots In a deadly shower. In all directions bair was singed and the upper clothing set on fire. The fugitives backed into the water and faced (he Art at bay, and stood so near together that they sould extinguish each other. uPut me out!" "Put me out!" was heard on all sides, and *Yomen who were unusually exposed, or whose garments were exceptionally inflam? mable, were repeatedly dipped into the water by their neighbors. Boys and girls burrowed In the sand up to their necks, close to the water, and laved their heads and faces constantly. Babies were frequently dipped to their utter wonder and annoyance. - Somebody has brought from Chicago a curious memorial of the great Ure. Among the ruins of the Western News Company's estab? lishment, where aa immense slock of periodi? cals and books was reduced to ashes, there was found a single leaf of a quarto Bible, charred around the edges. It coutained the first chapter o? the Lamentations of Jeremiah, which opens with the following words : "How doth the city sit solitary that was full of peo? ple ! how is she become as a widow ! she that was great among the nations and princess amonz the provinces, how ls she become tribu? tary ! She weepeth sore in the night, and h* r tears are on her cheeks: among ail her lovers she bath none to comfort her." And that was the only lragmen-. of literature saved from the News Company's great depot. -A New York letter of Saturday says: ..The cotton question assumes a new phase. The bulls are terribly disgusted at the turn of affairs. The receipts on last Tuesday and Wednesday were about forty-three hundred bales in excess cf last year. This excess, in face ol the greatly reduced estimates of the j crop, has confounded operators, and the first impulse is a wish to sell. The available sup? ply of colton is, however, quite small, and consequently cotton for future delivery has declined much more than lots on the spot. Wa have, in addition to the Increased receipts at tho ports, great stringency in the money markets and a decline in gold and exchange. It ls doubtful if our banks and Insurance com? panies will stand up under the losses incurred at Chicago as well as lt was hoped and expect? ed one week ago. Three insurance companies were placed In the hands or receivers yester? day, and two others have taken stet'? to com? promise with their creditors. There has been a great pressure in this market to sell Hie lead? ing staples of Western produc s, and puces have declined more or less. We have large Btocks ol corn, oats, pork, lard, tallow, ?c., upon which owners have been able to realize large sumr-of money with very little trouble, and without mueblad idee, for there Isa large export demand, and a slight Concession lu prices brings forward buyers for large quanti? ties." ' ' ?.* -Perhaps the most perfect account ol the Chicago calamity which has ytt appear?.dis * one written by Mr. Horace Waite, of the Chi? cago Tribune, to Mr. Haletead, of the Cincin? nati Commercial, "aa a Blight acknowledg? ment ol the latter's thoughtfulness in forward log a compl?te outfit of type and cases'' to the former on the day of the fire. Mr. Halstead's action was certainly thoughtful and generous, bat no one who reads Mr. White's eloquent letter will consider the acknowl? edgment a slight one. He begins with a ie llcitous comparison of ihe fire with the battle ol'Gettysburg, inasmuch as the impossibility of seeing the whole of either event would have been absolute. He begins with the firEt alarm, the rise ?and progress of the flames, and the hurrying to and fro as the suspl:ion of the possible extent ol the conflagration gave place to a dread conviction. The preparations for emergencies, the gathering together o? valuables and pets, the speculations, the trem? blings, the retreat before the advancing foe, the gradual abandonment of every possession save life itseli, and the struggle to preserve even that priceless treasure-all are depicted with a master hand. The statement of the subsequent condition of the stricken city is not less admirably drawn. His account con? firms most of the startling particulars of the catastrophe which have been already publish? ed, and. being the production of a clear headed man and experienced narrator, cannot only be relied upon as an accurate description, but will also be regarded hereafter, doubtless, as a valuable document of reference lor the historian._ Chicago to Charleston. We have received the following dispatch from the Mayor of Chicago, in reply to a telegram advising him that there h?td been forwarded, by expr?s?, a draft for S821 50 100, contributed by sympathizing citizens of impoverished Charleston tc the suffering people of Chicago: CHICAGO, III., October 23, 1871. To Riordan, Dawson dc Co., Cha~leston, S. C.: Heaven bless your citizens ! We appreciate that amount from a people in your situation. K. B. MASON, Mayor. Ring Kult- and Rain. The bold attempt of Pillsbury and bis hangers-on to override the will of the peo? ple, aa expressed at the municipal ?lectiOD, will, if persisted in, be as dangerous to the Republican party in general, as to ile indi? vidual members who live by their industry I in Charleston. The Republican party professes to be '"he party of honesty and good faith. Its leaders in New York make war upon Tammany, because of the charges of corrupt conduct brought against the sachems. Its cham? pions in Washington denounce what they style "Democratic venality," and solemnly tell the people that Republicans alone are to be trusted. At the same lime, their best anti wisest men declare that they will cut out any cankerous sores which power may bave brid in their own body. They assert their purpose to purify the Republican party, and to expel from it those who are incompeteot and not to be trusted. Collector Murphy liDgers in office, but the gleaming axe is ready to fall. In other words, the purest and ablest of the Republican leaders take the positioj that it is the mission of their party to correct all the abuses which have grown ont of the war. They take a new ^ departure, and dejare war upon tricksters I and cheats wherever they find them. < These are the sounding phrases ol our po? litical adversaries, and they are re-echoed , in Souln Carolina, Oar promiEiog Governor i candidly admits that many of the State offi? cers are incompetent, and that there is ove:- i much peculation. The same avowal is' i made by every Republican in the State whose eyes are not closed by a golden bandage. And it was this feeling which elected General Wagener and the Citizens? I candidates for aldermen three months ago. i They were elected not as Democrats or Re publicans,but as honest men who would con? trol the city government in the interests of the whole people, and not for the benefit of a 1 party or class. Their election was so un? derstood, and welcomed, by every journal of note in the country. But an attempt is made to set the election aside. A handful of desperate men, who are not respected or trusted in tho HepabJican party or out of it, who are notoriously corrupt, who have no higher aim than their own profit, now pro? pose to reverse the popular decision, aLd to . remain in office in usurpation of the rights of the people. They have taken a course of which no decent Republican does, or can, approve. They wilfully make a laughing? stock of the honest Republicans of both North and South. They prepare the ruin of their jmrty, and give to the Democracy a weapon which will be used with terrible efiect. Their plotting is watched. We may sufler, but the Democracy will, through our ovet throw, gain many a victory. Nor have Pillsbury and Hendricks any more regard for the working classes, mainly negroes, whom they pretend to represent, than for the National Republicans. With? out confidence in the municipal governtcitl, we cannot retain or obtain capital, and without capital there is no work for the iaborer3 and workingmen. The election of the Citizens' candidates gave confidence to tbe owners of property. Conti acts for new buildings and for other improvements were instantly madv. There was a demand for laborers aud mechanics. The price of city slock improved. All the city was cheerful and confident. The fact that, after three year3 of misrule, the city luid obtained n government which the people could trust, made whites anti blacks, rich and poor, buoyant and full of hope. La3t Friday it w.u rumored that Judge Graham had grant t I writ which might deluy the installation w. ibe new Couucil. City steck fell heavily. The whole community became miserably blue. And wilh reason. They who have money will continue to lend it out and wil| make a large profit. But Hey will ool build houses-to le taxed by a Pillsbury Council. They wiil not buy ship3; they will not ex? tend wharves; they will not lay out one dol? lar beyond what is needed for food, shelter and clothing. They will be tempted to put the bulk of their means in a, city which is blessed with an honest government. And what is to become o? tbe woik ing classes whom the Pillsi-ury crew pretend to love ? The youngest and most skilful will shake the ('cist from their feet and go to other Stale3. As for the rest, they must slay Lere, and may starve for all that Hendricks and Pillsbury tare. And they who will suf? fer most are the colored citizens of Charles? ton who, in party contests, lake the Radical side. We have the right, then, to say that the men who seliiih?y pr. mote the p oiest of Uie Charleston election, by so doing prove .their willingness to sacrifice their party interests and to jeopardize the very daily bread of the Republican masses, in order that Pills? bury and Hendricks may remain in office for two yearB more. Judge Bond and Judge Biyan. [From the Colombia Phoenix.] At the approaching United States Court, to be held in this city, we presume that both these Federal judges will be upon the bench. At least, to the end that justice may be fairly administered, it is hoped that such is the case. We have no grounds upon which to doubt Judge Sond's fidelity to his trust. From his course, however, In the North Carolina court, it is beid by some that his rulings have evinced a disposition to exercise great and unusual judicial severity In cases that come up before him under the Ku-Klux act. Whether this be the case or not, in either event, we hope that Judge Bryan will find lt convenient to take his seat with Judge Bond. We think it due to the people of South Carolina, and to those ol her citizens who may be prosecuted under the Eu-Klux act, and to the cause ot the impartial administration of the law, that Judge Bryan should make it a point to preside with Judge Bend. Although Judge Bryan has always been a Union man, and his sympathies have -e-ver been with the Federal Government, yet he bas, In a large degree, the oonfldenoe of the entire public. Impartiality-lair dealing sense of justice-these qualities are very gen? erally attributed to the upright judge. An? other consideration is that, according to the law, Judge Bryan would be constructively pre? sent, though really absent; and that, there? fore, were either he or Judge Bond to be alone on the bench, no appeal is possible, as there can be an appeal only when the two judges ?liesest. tjostcUcr's ?ittnrs. pay THE MEANS OF ESCAPE -TBE fal! has many perils for the weak and feeble, and its sudden atmospheric changes are trying to the constitutions or even the robust. The chilling temp?rature of the nights, as compared with the almost summer warmth or the days, necessarily exercises an unhealthy influence on all who are J exposed to lt. Dence dysentery, diarrhoea, In- \ terminent fevers, bilious attacks and derange* menta oral, the secretions, are common at this season. The true way to escape them ls to meet j the causes with a protective and invigorating | medicine. HOSTETTER'? STOMACH BITTERS are designed ror this exigency. This powerrul vegetable specific relieves the system or all acid humors, purities the fluids, tones the secretive organs, promotes healthy evaporation through the pores, increases the activity of the digestive functions, 'Vers the spirits, and regulates the bowels. To do ibis ls to make the whole body vigorous, and render lt proof against the vicissi? tudes of temperature, and against malaria. A course of the great tonic and alterative ls there? fore in all cases advisable as a preventive at this season. If, on the other hand, 'he mischief is a) - ready done, and intermittent or remittent fever la actually present, or the liver, bowels, or stom-1 ach disordered, there s no medicine so certain to i effect a quick and thorough cure as this harmless j and agreeable preparation. oct21-stuth3D*c ?TonralionaC jyj?
