A new collector will be ap? pointed on the return of Attorney-General Akerman to Washington. -The stone so-called fire-proof buildings in Chicago were only fire-proof In name. The material of which most of them were made was a limestone or marble highly charged with petroleum. Under a hot sun the smell of the oil was perceptible. The New York Jour? nal of Commerce reports an eye-witness of the Are as saying that he saw the flames cross streets and lick with long tongues at the stone buildings opposite. The latter, as they be? came Intensely heated, emitted jets of gap, upon which the flames would catch and tbtn go out again, repeating the operation a nun - ber of times, when, presto I the stone wou'd apparently be In flames. Like coal, these stones were reduced to ashes. Mr. Horace White, of the Chicago Tribune, in a letter to the Cincinnati Commercial, writes : "It ls ?s-i certalned that no stone ever used In the busi? ness part of the city ls wort'a a larthing in such a fire." ,. -A letter from Adjutant-General Gorman, ot the North Carolina milli i t, gives a history ol the unsuccessful campaign against the negro banditti in Robeson County, who have solong dened both the State and national authorities. He also gives a description of the country in which the outlaws live, their personnel and mode of life. The whole race is Of mixed origin and ls more or less connected by blood, and some Ave or six family names j constitute the majority of the Inhabitants, the Lowry?, the Oxendlnes and Chavises being the largest In number. It ls asserted that near? ly the whole community is in active sympathy ,wUb the outlaws, many through fear, others through prejudice, and the remainder from ties ot relationship. Their predatory and law? less operations are well systematized, and lu their forays they are assisted by the desolate and almost Impassable condition of the swamp and forest land. Finding that he could not make headway against them, and not be? ing able to arouse the white citizens from their despondent apathy and secure their co? operation, Gormon Anally arranged an inter? view with the Lowry?, and met them, by agreement, In a swamp. They said that they were tired of their present manner of life, and promised to leave the Uulted States il a free pardon was given them. Gorman assured them that they would have a fair trial and ?jood counsel at court, but they would not sur? render. They say that they will defend them? selves to the bitter end. TLr. adjutaut-general adds that he hopes belore long to have the satisfaction cf announcing ?.he capture of the gang. -A Washington telegram to the New York Tribune says : '-The Investigation by the Uul? ted States Court of Claims into the various claims against the United States for cotton seized by the government officers during the rebellion brings out some remarkable develop? ments which tend to throw additions' li cht on the mystery which has surrounded tn.* sale of cotton by the government agents shortly after lt was seized from the rebels during the war. The government realized from Hie sale about $30,000,000, but the examinations of the gov? ernment agents' books and other evidence which has been obtained through the prosecu? tion of these g)ai ins reveals the fact that the cotton was wurih over twice that amount. It appears thal some ot the agents at New York disposed of the cotton at 29 cents a pound, when its market value at the time ol the sale was 75 cents per pound. Some of the agents appear to have been in collusion with the purchas? ers, and the poorest kinds ol cotton were shown as samples of the entire lot held by the government, the bidders getting lt by this arrangement at the low figure of twenty-nine cents per pound, and subsequently selling it at the market price, thereby securing a hand? some profit. The claimants, however, refuse to base their claims at a figure less than its market value at the time of the sale, and it ls feared that the government will, in refusing the money for these cotton seizures, be a con? siderable loser, especially now that the British claimants stand a chance bet?re the mixed commission of being allowed some compensa? tion for these losses. If ls now known al the Treasury that several of these cotton agents delrauded the government Otlt ol' large amounts of money. The accounts show this, but what steps the United Stales will take lo recover Its just dues have not been decided upon." -The Chicago Times prints a remarkable Btory, which is credited lo a member ol the Soci?t? Internationale, whose headquarters are In Paris, and attempts to prove that the destructtou of Chicago was the work of Incen? diaries. The-first organization of the Soci?t? in Chicago was made about eight months ago, and when its members found that they could not accomplish what they desired by peacea? ble means, the burning or Chicago was sug? gested. Several attempts were made before they succeeded. The author ol this story says that George Francis Train, a member of the Soci?t? on Sunday evening precediug the fire uttered these words: "This ls ihe last public address that will be delivered within these walls ! A tembl? calamity is impending over the City of Chicago. More I cannot say; more I dare not utter !" He adds that "it was well for Train that he closed as he did, for there were hali a score of hands grasping hall a score of pistols that would have check? ed any further utterance forever." The author then goes into a history of the Ure, and asserts that two of the original foun? ders of the organization in Chicago met death in the terrible conflagration they had instigat? ed, and he alone is spared. Seven ol the men delegated to assist the fire in its progress also perished miserably, while two others are prob? ably maimed for life. "As for myself," he adds, "I have little hope of escaping the ven? geance of the Internationals.'' In a postscript he says : "Let me add one word of warning. Other cities, both in this country and Europe, have been threatened with fire. The 8ociete Internationale is implacable."' In printing this extraordinary statement the Times re? marks : "Though it appears at first to be utter? ly romantic and improbable, there are not wanting confirmatory circumstances. The original explanation of the origin of the fire has been conclusively disproven. It can be attested by every one who listened to Train, at Farwell Hall, on the night of the fire, that he used the language recited above, Ac. Lit? tle doubt remains that, the city was fired in several different places." The informant, pro? fessing to be moved by remorse, does not divulge h:s name. The New City Government. The t.' lt mpt of a few disappointed political adventurers to set aside the Municipal elec? tion or August last, ha3 completely and deservedly failed, and we may confidently hope that DO farther impediment will be thrown in the way ol the installation of the Mayor and Aldermen elect. Thia result, the knowledge of which sped through Charleston with lightning speed on Saturday night, must be hailed with deep satisfaction by every person who has at heart the advance? ment and the prosperity of the city. We take thi3 occasion, therefore, to congratu? late the people on the peaceful victory they have won-a victory far higher than the party triumphs which are heralded by peal of bell and roar of cannon ; for its fruits will be gathered by the whole community, and even, in their degree, by the individuals composing the now shivered Ring. The application for a writ o? Mandamus, to compel the acting Board of Aldermen to receive and consider a protest against the election of General Wagener and bis alder? men, was indeed a desperate device. Sev? eral weeks elapsed before it was even thought of. And in the face of the notorious facts, it had no chance of success before ac y judge mindful of bis official oath and official duty. The majority for General Wagener and his Aldermen was nearly eight hundred; their election bad been formally announced by the acting Mayor; the overthrow of the corrupt Ring, who had so long plundered the city, wa3 the united work of all classes and condi? tions of men. With a firm faith in the jus? tice cf their caa;e, the representatives of the popalar will came before Judge Graham on Saturday. At the last moment the Ridg sought, by a devilish trick, to deprive them of a hearing; bat a timely warning made it easy to hoist the Ring engineers with their own petard, and a simp'.e reading of the answer made on behalf of the people convict? ed the King of gro33 carelessness as well aa deliberate tergiversation. Judge Graham discharged the rule. The Ring were beaten on the ground of their own choosing. Never wu3 a cunningly contrived plot against the public welfare more quickly and decisively frustrated. We may expect, then, that the Mayor and Aldermen elect will take their seats, as re? quited by law, on Wednesday next. Then will begin in Charleston a new era-an era of honesty, economy and intelligence io the Municipal government, and of activity, en? terprise and cheerful confidence on the part of the people. A government like that with which we have been cursed these three years, is far more hurtful to a community than pestilence or war. Others ri3e up to take the place of the dead. The waste and ruin of battle may, in time, be repaired. But an extravagant and ignorant adminis? tration of public affairs paralyzes the hand and dulls the brain-ander it, both restora? tion and improvement are impossible. A knowledge of the3e truths wa3 forced, by hard experience, upon this people. They put politics aside, and chose a government which well represents every class, and which all classes may trust. Capital will no longer fear to abide in Charleston. The days of insecurity are at an end. Upon the streets, this day, every eye will be bright and every form erect. A feeling of sober thanksgiving will be found io every honest home. Anti, before many weeks, trade of all kinds will revive; the wharves will be piled high with freight ; the stores will be crowded with customers; the rhythmic fall oi hammer and the cheerful ring of trowel will muke music where now are stagnant pool3 and unsightly ruins. No man 13 so rich or so poor tnat he will not share iu the advantages of the blithe and hopeful time which begins the day after to-morrow. But, glad as we are, we want no public rejoicing. It is well enough to shout over the battles which parties W?D, but we need no noisy outburst to celebrate the succe33 which our honest citizens have gained. We hope that there will be no procession, no parade, no gathering of friends or oppo? nents on the occasion of the installation. We have much to do. There is abundant work before us. And we trust that all our people will, without exception, attend as usual to their bu3ine3s, and only show their gladness by sustaining, in every possible way, the measures of reform which the new Council may adopt. The installation ' should be a plain, matter-of fact afluir, with? out show and without ostentation. And we believe that our people will consult the wishes of the Mayor and Aldermen elect, as well as the highest interests of the city, by wearing their honors meekly, and avoiding anything in the nature of procession, sere? nade, or public merry-making. Weil Done ! We learn from the Anderson Intelligencer that a number of influential gentlemen pro? pose to start a steam cotton manufactory at Anderson, having a capital stock of $150, 000. A public meeting approved of the project, and recommend that the organiza? tion be known as the "People's Manufac "turing Company;" that subscriptions be received for thirty days, and that the com? pany be organized when $75,000 have been subscribed. Among the promoters of the enterprise are ColonelJames A. Hoyt, Colo? nel J. P. Reed, Major John B. Moore, and B. F. Crayton, Esq. It is, indeed, encour? aging that, in times like these, any of our people should be plucky enough, and thrifty enough, to devote themselves to pushing forward au extensive industrial undertaking, involving a large expenditure of capital. All success lo Anderson ! '1 he Other Stile. At the annual meeting of the Columbia Board of Trade, held last week, speeches were made by Mr. F. Bash, the president of | the Greenville aBd Columbia Railroad Com? pany, and Major Pearce, tho agent of Sena? tor Sprague, of Rhode Island. Both of the speakers are Northern Republicans, and, comparatively, new-comers in South Caro? lina, but they declared themselves delighted with the warmth of their reception. Mr. Bush said, "he felt quite as secare, and "found life in all respects as agreeable, as it "could be in Massachusetts." How does this square with the statements of the anony? mous correspondent of the New York Times, who swears that innumerable perils aDd pri? vations must be faced by any person who comes to South Carolina, and "attempts to "live there in opeD, yet unobtrusive, loyalty ..to the constitution and government of the "United States ?" ?o Rent.
