_Cotton closed easier; uplands 18$c; sales
2767 bales.
-In Liverpool cotton closed steady, uplands
PM, Orleans 9jd; sales 15,000 bales.
-Pension Agent Forbes has been held to
bail in the sum of $25,000, in Philadelphia, and
the city treasurer has been arrested on the
charge ot defalcation.
-Captain William Forrest, a brother ol Gen?
eral N. B. Forres!, was shot and kiiled about
two weeks ago in Texas, on the Rio Grande.
No particulars of his death have been received
except that he was slain ia,a personal ren?
contre with some Texau.
-The Columbus (Ohio) State Journal says:
"A deformed chicken of common breed, the
deformity resulting from a broken back, was
entered at the MMskingum County lair os a
Hungarian ccck of the 'Slavi Magyar breed,'
Just Imported, and the Judges, after Inspecting
it, awarded it the first premium over one
of the finest poultry shows ever seen in the
county."
-Baron Rothschild's lato exploits on the
turf are surprising. When he won the Derby
with Favonlus, and with the lace a pot of
money, the sporting world admired his great
luck. Soon after, with Hannah, be won the
Oaks; soon alter again with the same mare,
the St. Leger, and now, astonishing to relate,
with Corrisande-named after Mr. Disraeli's
radiant heroine-the Baron bas won the Czar
ewlch. Ia ether words, In one year he has
carried off the four highest prizes of the turi.
Such a dazzling series of successes is, it is
stated, quite without a precedent.
-Miss Aanle Dickinson has turned her at?
tention from woman's rights, Ac, to the labor
question. She Is now going up and down In j
New England denouncing the trades unions,
labor combinations of all kinds, and Biri kee, I
through her new lecture entitled "The Derna-1
gogue among the Workingmen." The lecture,
however, seems a bitter attack upon Mr. Wen
dell Philips, on account of his vagaries about
capital and labor. One sensible Idea she pro
mitigates ls that no man has ever lifted him
seit to eminence who was not willing to give
more than an equivalent tor his wages, or who
stopped to count the hours.
-No less than four execntlons took place
last Friday, two in North Carolina, one In Fio
rida, and one In Indiana. At Greensboro', N. I
C., Wm. B. Parker, a white farmer, was hanged
on that day for the murder of Thomas Prise, a
colored man. about a year ago. The crime was
committed in a peculiarly brutal manner. J
Price had set fire to a bara belonging
to Parker, who was greatly incensed !
thereat, and swore that he would have a
terrible revenge. Accordingly he seized
Price, extorted lrom him a confession, and
then set 'our bloodhounds upon him. The
wretched victim was soon torn limb from
limo by the savage animals, and alter witness- j
lng his agony as long as it pleased him. Par
ker dhpatched the object ot his hatred with a
fence rall. He was rrrested, and sentenced to
death. Before the execution he made a par- I
tial confession, but remained stolid and indif?
ferent until the scaffold was reached, when
his firmness forsook him, his knees trembled,
and he betrayed every sign of intense agita- I
tlon and terror. He addressed the crowd,
complaining that his sentence was unjust.
Atter this the mask was drawn over his face
and he attempted to sit down on the drop, but
was forced to stand up by the sheriff, and,
while be was groaning and crying, and a
tremor was visible in his whole frame, the
signal was given, and ia a moment all was
over.
-An account has already been given in this
column of the new political complication in
England, arising out of a reported alliance
between the tories and the workingmen. It
would new seem, from later advices, that al?
though negotiations have certainly been going
on, no formal union hos been effected, and the
several parties whose signatures have been
secured are far from a perfect agreement.
There ls no doubt that the tories would gladly
combine with almost any element In order to j
obtain greater powr, but they do not relish
the platform which has been constructed for I
the Joint accommodation of the peers and pro-1
letariat. The principles included in it are
quite liberal, and point to the amelioration or
the masses by means of a reduction of the
bours of labor, more comfortable habitations, I
a better system of education, &c; but tue
peers are, apparently, unable to make even
this concession, and one of the most iDfluen- ;
Hal leaders. Lord Salisbury, Is reported to ,
fcave rejected the scheme with emphasis. The
workingmen are disaffected as well, and the
success ot the project ls at present problema!i- I
cal. At least the affair will not have beea en?
tirely fruitless, Inasmuch as lt has served to '
bring many important questions Into political
prominence, and will compel the different par?
ties to pronounce aa opinion upon ihem. Al?
ready the papers are discussing the new idea
with an unwonted vehemence.
-It needs uo labored argument to remind
Americans of the sad plight in which our ship- j
building interest languishes, but it any were
needed, a letter from Glasgow to the New York j
World would be all-sufficient for the purpose,
detailing as it does the growth and prosperity I
of this vitally important branch of manufac?
ture on the other side of tte Atlantic. From
the statements ot the writer, who, we are told. I
ls aa able and well-informed Amerlcao engl- I
neer, It would appear that ship-building was J ?
never more flourishing in Great Britaia thoa it I
ls to-day. Oil the 'i hames, indeed, it has al?
most entirely ceased, owing to local causes. I;
Oa the Mersey, the Humber, the Tyne and the 1
Tweed, a large number of ships are being bulli;
but the great centre of this industry ls on the I
Clyde. For miles bi.th banks of the river are
lined with shipyards, and every yard is full ot
ships In various stages ot construction, from
the partlally-lald keel to the completed hull.
It ls said on the authority of Mr. Tonge, of the
firm of Toni'e & Co., ship brokers, ol Liverpool,
that there are 5400 Iron steamers now building J
la the United Kingdom. This genllemao also
stated that the British merci.ams are diverting
their maritime trade from sail'ng vessels to
steamers as fast as p jssible, tile ct mpletion of |
the Suez Canal being tbe great event
has awakened them te the increased a
tages of steam over sail. The English
builders and shipowners have been sagt
enough to see and seize upon their opporl
for facilitating and securing the vast Ea
trade which will naturally seek that chan

The Work ls Done, and Well Do?
General John A. Wagener and the gei
men elected with him ou the second of
gust were installed, as Mayor and Alder
of Charleston, at noon yesterday,
crowd which had assei .bled around the
Hall cheered the incoming officers, bat,
youd tnis, lhere was no public rejoicing,
truth, tho satisfaction of the people was
deep and hearty to And full expre3Sioi
3houts and barrans, however sincere,
whole city is conscious that a better day
dawued, under whose favoring sun c
merce will thrive and all Charleston
ripen into mellow prosperity. But the I
pie know that the work of purification i
improvement must be arduouB and slow, i
it would be wrong to treat as a party
n"iph what ia, in reality, nothing more tl
the opportunity of showing the differei
between a political administration and <
whose only object is to secure and prom
the well-being of the whole community.
Mr. Pillsbury, in resigning his cffi
briefly reviewed the work of his admit
tratiOD, and asked that he and
colleagues be accorded the credit whi
is due to men who, at least, mea
well. His words were spa ken as thouj
they came from the heart, and it would
hard for any who heard him yesterday
treat Gilbert Pillsbury as a hypocrite
cheat. It bas been our constant desire
treat Mr. Pillsbury with fairness. He knov
best whether this paper has done him aD i
justice which we should always regret. Tl
reply of Mayor Wagener was short and t
the purpose. We only wish, with him, tin
Mr. Pillsbury and bis friends may remain i
Charleston loug enough to appreciate tb
difference between a partial and prejudice
administration and one which has no bighe
aim than efficiency, economy and peace.
The new city government has the conti
dence of the people. There are golden op
portunities which it will not fail to improve
As the victory waa won without tumult ant
ia hailed with quiet thankfulness, so shal
the course of the Wogener administrator
be marked by moderation, charity and exac
fair d<aling. Ia Charleston, for the hrsi
tiuio io several years, progressive conser?
vatism is OD its trial, and they who kno*
the staunch material of which the new citj
government is composed cannot fear tlx
result.
Ta Qaoqae !
About a month ago the Republican State
Central Committee held a meeting in Colum?
bia, when a committee of five was appointed
to draft a memorial to the President urging
the removal of Marshal Louis E. Johnson,
and the appointment in his place of Solomon
L. Iloge, ex-Jaiige and ex member of Con?
gres?. Tbe Committee, or their representa?
tives, knocked at the doors of the White
House, and presented the claims of their
ca uluate, bat, strange to say, no change
b. 3 bc n made, and Marshal Johnson is still
ma1"'? a arrests and discharging whatever
duties theEu-Klux law and President Grant
impose upon him. Andyet, if ex-Congress?
man and ex-Judge H?ge is to be believed,
be i3 a better man for the post than Mr.
Johnson. As reported by the Columbia
Phoenix, Solomon L. H?ge wa3 beard to say
that "he boped that the United States troops
"engaged in making arrests in the up?
country would be fired into by some of the
"citizens" so that "?ce" could "fix them"
and could "show them ichat hell is." Per?
haps the poor people of the up-country, who
are harried by deputy marshals and paid in?
formers, have, already, a lively sense of that
Acberontic condition to which H?ge desires
to reduce them; but every deep bas a lower
deep, and another turn of the screw would
do no harm to the unfortunates whom the
H?ges of South Carolina Radicalism would
hunt down and destroy. The Columbia
Union, to ita credit be it said, repudiates
and denounces Hoge's sentiments in no
measured term3, and emphatically say3 "the
"time ba3 gone by when some men can use
"such language as that and be allowed to
"go unrebuked." If H?ge made use of that
expression-3uy3 the Union-he did it "as
"an individua!, and not us the representa
"tivear any party, or any class." But we
would suggest to the Union that it has
stood, and, for all that we know, still stands,
on the same level with the adventurers whom
it now condemn?. Tue Dinon, whatever ita
real sentiments, bas written as malignantly,
and as bitterly, aa H?ge can speak" and it
baa always been ready to fasten upon the
white people of the State the responsibility
for the imprudent words and criminal acts
of a few lawless characters. The Union
says that H?ge is not the representative of a
party ora class. We fear that he represents
the class to which the Union belongs. Had
a Democratic ex-Judge and ex-Congressman
spoke of the Radicals as H?ge Bpeaks of the
white citizens of the State, it would have
been useless for the Conservative press to
declare that the Democratic reviler made
use of that expression "as an individual
"and not as the representative of any party
"or clas3." And yet we must know the
true sentiment of the Conservatives as
thoroughly as the Union can know the sen?
timents of the party to which it belongs.
For once, both Conservative and Radical
papers hold the same opinion. The Colum?
bia Phoenix does not condemn Hoge's words
more warmly than the Union has done.
This is well. It only remains now for the
Republican State Central Committee to jus?
tify, or withdraw, their unqualified recom?
mendation of the wretched intriguer who is
ambitious of holdiDg one of the most re?
sponsible offices in the State.
A PractUal Test.
A narrow-gauge railroad is now open from
Denver to Colorado City, a distance of sev?
enty-six miles, and will 600n be thoroughly
equipped for business. It is the intention
to extend this line further to Santa Fe, a
distance of two hundred and fifty miles south.
Ultimately the line will reach through New
Mexico to the valley of the Rio Grande, and
connect with the new Texas and California
Railroad now in process of construction.
Before the full completion of this great
railroad project some conclusion may be
formed as to the merits of the narrow-gauge
system, or rather of its adaptability to Amer?
ican wants. The line between Colorado City
and Denver, when in full operation, will pro?
bably solve the narrow-gauge issue once for
all, and decide whether it shall be extensive?
ly adopted in this country or not.
But whatever may be the results of the
projected long line from Denver to El Paso,
there is every reason to anticipate that the
comparatively short line between Denver and
Colorado City will be a pecuniary success.
It runs through a rich and prosperous mining
country, and c.:gbt to command business
enough to reniX-r it pro?table almost from
the commencement. There are few Western
and Southern towns of any pretension that
cunnot command sjrficient means to con?
nect themselves by means of the narrow
gauge system, and we expect that it will ex?
ert a very important influence in opening
new resources of commerce.
Thanksgiving.
The Baltimore Sun, in printing the text of
President Grant's proclamation fixing the 30th
November as a day of National Thanksgiving,
remarks : "The President briefly refers to the
"calamities that 'some of us' have had, though
"he doe3 not specifically mention the confla
"grations of Chicago and the Northwest, or
"the probably more terrible infliction visited
"upon the people ol certain of the counties of
"South Carolina by the suspension of the writ |
"of habeascorpus in their midst. The President
"also refers to the fact that 'we are ot peace
" 'with all nations, and tranquillity, with few
" 'exceptions, prevails at home.' This is true,
"but lt is a very mild way of putting upon
"record the terrible evils existing in South
"Carolina as the consequence of the preceding
"proclamation ol the President, affecting an
"acknowledged State yielding allegiance to
"the government and being at peace with the
"rest of the nation.''
The Heating of Cities.
The enforced rebuilding of Chicago has sug?
gested various Improvements in cities, among
which is that ol heating the entire town with
steam in a manner very similar to that by
which it was formerly lighted-by means oil
pipes running under ground ?rom some cen?
tral reservoir to each house, thus doing away
forever with the annoyance caused by bad
coal, damp wood, kindlings, &c. It may be
doubted whether the time ls ripe for so exten?
sive an improvement; but when we remember
that steam may be forced through these pipes
to an Immense distance, with a very slight
diminution of heat, and at the rate of seven
miles per minute, it does indeed seem as if the
day could not be tar distant when a practical
application shall be made of what has long
been theoretically admitted.

Have yon seen my eight pound SUGAR f
Have you tried the Good Table Batter I sell at
25 cents per pound ?
Other grocers may endeavor to imitate my
Butter prices only to fall most signally. Let lt
be remembered that I am the only grocer in
Charleston who obtains Butter direct from the
New York Dairies, thus saving two profits, those
of the wholesale and retail jobber.
Have yon tried my "Fancy Chop" Young Hy?
son TEA, generally accorded by all Tea Connois?
seurs as the best in this market, and toi J at the
low price of $160 per pound ?
Have yon ever drank a cup of my Dollar Tea f
If you buy such Tea elsewhere, I'd advise yon ons
the score or economy to try mine, as I gnarantef?
it to be all pure Tea, and no: the combination of
Tea and foreign mixtures gen .rally sold In this
market at that price ?
It will be worth the time consumed to call and
examine the varied stock of
GROCERIES, CROCKERY, FRENCH CHINA,
FANGT GOODS, TOYS AND TINWARE,
now in Store, by no means my complete Stock,
but still well assorted and quite extensive. ^
lt affords me great satisfaction to be able to
state that, while a few storekeepers make a cer?
tain article a so-called specialty, and offer lt at
low figures, I endeavor to make a specialty of
everything in my stock m the matter of quality
and cheapness, and thus stand a better chance of
affording satisfaction generally.
A few words to the wise should be sufficient.
Most sensible people generally call and s:e for
themselves.
