Address RIORDAN. DAWSON A CO.. No. 14? East Bay. (marleston, sc. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 28. 1871. KEIFS OF THE DAT. -Gold at New York closed yesterday at Hi ?UL -The New York cotton market closed weak; uplands is;c.; sales 1309 bales. -At Liverpool colton closed heavy; up'ands 9Ad. sales 10,000 bales. -The Hon. Joshua Vansant has been elect? ed mayor of Baltimore. -Barney Aaron, the pugilist, whose hang? ing at Chicago was reported by an "eye wit Bess," comes up smiling in New York. -The Methodists of Cincinnati have resolved to contribute $30,000 to the Methodists of Chicago. -The King of Siam offered Mr. Seward an elephant, during his visit to that country. He was iorced, though reluctantly, to decline the . present. -The Catholics of Chicago, through their religion* establishments and churches, lost leavlly by the great fire in that city. Among the buildings destroyed w*re seven churches, eight schools, six convents, two asylums and two hospitals. It has aleo been stated that fully thirty thousand persons of the Catholic faith have been made bomeless by tbe fire. -Baron Von Gerolt, until recently Prussian Minister to this country, has written a work on "America," the publication of which is an? nounced in Leipsic. From his fong ret'.dence In this community, the ex-minister cmnot foll to have formed correct conclusions upon the subject-matter ol bis forthcoming book, which, we may astert in advance, will undoubtedly prove a very interesting and truthful account of American affairs. -It ls now stated that the Khedive of Egypt will not dismiss all the Americans in bis ser? vice, but that he will retain about half of their number. While this announcement may be true for the time being, it is very probable that the same causes-the antipathy of his na? tive and Turkish officers-which induce him to give a permanent furlough to six of them, will compel him, ere long, to dispense with the services ci the remaining bali dozen. -The immense Ired eg ar Iron Works, at Richmond, Ya., are in a more flourishing con? dition than at any time since their establish? ment. They cover eight acres, employ thir? teen hundred men, and have to be kept in operation dsy and night to supply the orders which are pouring In from all sections of the Country. In tbe manufacture of coal ireight cars tney do the heaviest business In t^e United States. The company bas $1.000,o00 capital, and its stock ls chiefly owned by citi? zens of Richmond. -The St. Golhard railway through the Alps viii soon be commenced. The tunnel will be about the same length as that through Mont Cenia The amount of capital necessary to build the tunnel and connect the railway with other lines ls estimated at thirty-seven mil? lions of dollars. Of this Germany, Italy and Switzerland have together furnished by sub? sidy seventeen millions; thirteen millions will be raised by the Issue of bonds, ant) st ven mil? lions by the sale of capital stock. French cap? italists hold aloof lrom the enterprise as calcu? lated to damage the interests and influence of France. -A Washington special to the Savannah News says : "It is believed here that the com? ing winter will develop the existence ot a vast i cotton lobby in the belly ol the Washington . treaty. If so, its ratification will involve ( many eminent men whose names are not , known publicly in connection with the forma? tion and ratification of the treaty. It ls ' charged that this cotton lobby is but one of the offshoots ot a select coalition between y confederates of the South and certain Radical 1 Republicans ol the North, in which the i Northern wing is to furnish the national po- < lit!cal influence, snd the confederate wing the \ Southern local influence-the spoils to be | equally divided. These spoils consist of mate- , rial and property, the title of which lawiully j rested In the government at the close ol the late war, In certain railroad material and run- E ning stock, grants oi land, and certain claims ( due to neutral European powers and loyal 1 Southern men. The ramifications of this lobby ' are so vast, the amount at stake so colossal, 1 and the Republicans estimated to be involved s directly In lt are so numerous, distinguished \ an?' influential, that nothing short ol Congres- ( .al investigation can reach the facts." ( -The Courier Diplomatique, ol Pari*, pub? lishes a communication, which, it sajs, comes , from a diplomatic personage of high rank, making Important revelations in regard to the ? negotiations which preceded the war between 1 Denmark and the allied powers-Prussia and ( Austria. The statement is in substance as t follows: "In 1864 tari Russell, then British ( Minister of Foreign Affairs, made overture?, [ through Lord Cowley, British Ambassador ut Paris', to M. Rouher. proposing an alliance, of? fensive and defensive, with France to help Denmark, lu case Prussia and Austria should declare war against her. England was to co? operate with France bj sea and land, and was , williDg to promise France, in return lor her ' assistance, a rectification ol her frontiers o n the Rhine by the annexation of a portlou of the Rhenish provinces. M. Rouher asked time for the consideration of these proposals, but . In three days from the lime they were laid 1 before M. Kouher the Emperor Napoleon ac- 1 cepted them. Lord Cowley immediately com- . nlcated ihe fact of the Bmpeior'a acceptance ' to his government, whereupon Earl Russell 1 replied that it was too late, as her Majesty's ? Government had decided not to Interfere in 8 the case of Denmark. This closed the nego- s Mations, and no attempt was made to reopen I the subject." 8 -The Interest of the fifth yacht race at New i York, Monday, was very great, the public cor- ( redly Judging that the international match t would be decided on that day by an American t victory, and desiring to be on hand lo "see it i done." Accordingly, no less than seven ex- ( curslon steamers repaired to the moorings off r Quarantine, each laden with a heavy cargo of f passengers, all of whom were on the qui vive t to witness the race and observo that the Eng- u llsbman was properly and overwhelmingly c beaten. When ail was ready, the Livonia and fa Sappho prepured to start lrom an anchorage. J The Livonia was the first to get moviug, and, u ewing to tardiness on the pan of the Suj'phu'd s j crew, tee latter jacht allowed her English competitor to get a half mile the start, which caused a prodigious thumping among the hearts oi the sympathising spectators. At last the American boat got under full headway, and gallantly strode after the Livonia. Then it was that the tremend? ous power of the Sappho became evident. She gained perceptibly upon her rival every minute, passed her in triumph, and then actually ran away from her, reaching home wilh the Livonia about five miles in the rear. There ls no use in denying it, the Sappho ls the queen ol the surf; and Mr. Ashbury may write very good protests, but he cannot out? sail his American friends. Tee committee of the New York Yacht Club have decided that this race is conclusive as to the question of the possession of the Queen's cup and decline to sall any more contests. Mr. Ashbury has announced his intention of sailing twice over the cotise and then claiming the cup, on the ground ina* he won the second race with the Columbia. Ko still protests that the Colum? bia did not turn the stake-boat rightly in the second race, and will only allow that the club have won three races. The sailing regulations Bay only "to turn the stake-boat," not stipulat? ing on what side. Let the Radicals Listen to Their Own Witnesses. The laws which regulate the drawing of juries in South Carolina were framed by oar Radical Legislature, with the settled deter? mination to givo their colored constituents the fullest possible protection. Most of the officers of the different courts, and all the judges, are members of the Republican party, and we have the right to assume that their deliberate utterances are at least im? partial in whatever may effect the well? being of Republicanism. Nor do we see that ihe bitterest Radicals can consistently decline to repose confidence in the state? ments ol the judges whom they have placed upon the bench, or of the mixed juries whom their own commissioners select. And yet, if the words of these judges and juries, as far as they have spoken, are accepted as the truth, we have the clearest evidence that the conspiracies and unlawful combina? tions, upon which the suspension of the writ of habeas corpus is based, do not exist. J We have already printed the charge of Judge Thomas to the grand jury of Chester County, which jury consists of six whites and six blacks. Judge Thomas told thc jury that l'he had no knowledge himself of "any obstruction of the laws," and urged npon them the importance of making "a "searching investigation" of all the viola? tions of law that were alleged to have been committed in the county. The grand jury (six whites and six blacks) did make a searching investigation. They examined the commandant of the post, and sifted the evidence which they gave. The result is that the grand j ury report to the court that they have beard of only two murders since tho court was last in session. They, further- j more, declare upon their oaths, from the testimony they have taken and from their knowledge of the different parts of the county, that "the .allegations contained in "the proclamation of the President of the "United States are without foundation, "and must be the result of a falsehood com "municated to him by persons equally re ' gurdlesa of good order and the peace of j "society." This solemn presentment of [ facts (which is elsewhere printed in full) man be taken as a complete refutation of ? the false charges which have brongbt down upon Chester ihe vengeance of the admin? istration. The grand jury of York County have, also, taken cognizance of what is cahed Ku Kluxism. They hint at no obstructions of { the law, although their presentment was made before the appearance of the Presi? dent's proclamation. They examined Col? onel Merrill, the post commandant, Con? gressman Wallace, and a cloud of other witnesses. The examination occupied them eight days, and they then formally informed the court that, since the first of July, the only violations of the peace in the county were the burning of the school-house, two ?ases of assault and battery and a riot wbich last consisted of the firing of a pistol, ind the use of boisterous language. Now, if we add to the strong evidence vhich comes from Chester and York ihe as bunding fact that Marion County was Deluded by mistake in the list of insurgent ?unties, we have proof enough that the jrivi?ege of the writ of habeas corpus nas jeen suspended without sufficient cause and without sufficient deliberation. We waive, br the moment, all question as to the con tlitutionulity of the Ku-Klux law. We sonline ourselves to the simple declaration hat a clerical error is allowed to strip a vhole county of the protection of the civil aw. and that the administration of the laws is laid to be obstructed in the very counties vhere Republican judges and mixed juries sondad, without thought of hindrance, the isaal business o? the term. Whether dies? er and York are, also, the victims of " a 'clerical error, " we do not pretend to say. Their partners in misfortune are as tranquil ind luw-abiding. What two counties have lone ihe rest will do, in like manner, when hey have a chance. But it is useless to :omplain. It is poor South Carolina which Daddies the stream, although far above us itand the spies and fanatics who stir the vaters at their source. Current Literature. SACTILUS; or, Cruising under Canvas. By Captain John N. Mutfiti, formerly of the U. S. Navy. United Sutes Publishing Com pany : New York. 1871. Captain Miffltt promises that the Nautilus ihall make another cruise, "not in classic 'seas, but in more familiar waters where the 'war-trump unhappily Boanda, and the Fed 'eral blue meets the Confederate gray in 'deadly and unnatural strife,"' and we cannot ?elp wishing that the gallant seaman had ;iven the second voyage ihe first place. De icrlptlons of the Mediterranean, of sudden quails, of visits to the Papal States?, Ihe Holy - ind, and of the pranks of thoughtless mld hipmen, are somewhat out ol date. The field s monopolized by the Marryatts, Coopers and 3hauniers, whom Captain Maffitt cannot hope o rival. But if he will abandon canvas and ake to steam; il he will exchange the car oiiade for the ten-inch parrot, and rhapsodl :al love stories for the chase ot blockade ma? lera, the bombardment of gallantly defended orts, and the capture of liglit-heeled cruisers, ie may make a book which will be to this ;eneratlon what the Red Rovers and Mldshlp nan Easys were to the young boys and old oys of twenly or thirty years ago. Captain laffltt has a glow ol' spirits which hides the bsence of humor, and a confidence In him' elf which makes up for the waut of power of vivid description. And when he is writing of j things as fresh to him and his readers as Hampton Roads and Hatteras, the Alabama and tho Florida, Fort Sumter and New Or? leans, Le cannot fail to be lively and enter? taining. Accepting Nautilus as a coup d'essai, Captain Maffltt is entitled to try again, and, when he comes down to Confederate times, we may confidently expect him to score a high point In the game of pleasing the public. Weary of the Republic. A Paris correspondent of the London Times takes the view that the unstable Parisians are beginning to weary of the simplicity of the Republic, and to look back with regret to the beaux jours of the Empire-days which meant for the bourgeoisie plenty of francs in their pockets, festivities, and the gathering in Paris of pleasure-seekers from all quarters ot the globe, Intent on spending their money while sharing in the gayety of the careless capital. While this feeling ls taking possession of the popular mind, the Bonapartiste are becoming bolder, and are proclaiming their loyalty to the banished Emperor eveu in public places. It would not be prudent, perhaps, to attempt to decide in advance upon the exact result ol this tendency of the public mind of Paris, but it seems clear enough that if the present Gov? ernment should lose the support of any large element of the people, a change must follow in the form ot government. That in such a contingency Imperialism would reassert itself | is the opinion of many thoughtful observer?. fioGtcttcr's Cillers. SINKING FAST.-PALE, MISERA?
