NEWS OE THE DAT. -Gold at New York, yesterday, closed at 12 al2j. -The New York cotton market closed dull and heavy; uplands 18Jc.; sales 204Q bales. -The French and English have at last com? promised the commercial trealy differences. -Cardinal ?ntonell!, the Papal Minister cf State, is very sick. -A tax on cats, sixty cents per bead per an? num, is imposed in Paris. -New York claims at noon on a week day to have 1,400,000 population.; -The bnrned Chicago buildings, If placed side by side, would reach one hundred miles. -The German Government will shortly In? troduce conscription In Alsace. -The reconstruction ol the Vendome Column In Paris commenced last week, under the direction of M. Renard, the well known contractor of public works. -All the first-class hotels and cigar shops lu Chicago were burned up. It waB more than a week before the citizens could procure a good cigar so as to join the ruins In smoking. -It is announced posliively from Washing? ton that Catacazy will not be received alter he visit of Duke Alexis. Should he persist in exercising the functions of minister from Russia his passports will be handed him. -The honor of being the richest man In the United Suites lies between William B. Astor, Cornelius Vanderbilt and A. T. Stewart. Prob? ably neither ol these gentlemen can tell with? in ten millions of what he is worth, and there ls not supposed to be much diff?rence be? tween them. -Louis Napoleon is said to have recently answered a letter from a little boy of Wilming? ton, Del., who has conceived great admiration and sympathy for the French Ca sar, thanking him lor his friendly words, and expressing the hope that his little irlend might live more quietly and happily than himself. -A narrow-gauge railroad has been opened to traffic between Toronto and Orangeville, in Ontario, Canada, and is doing a successful bu? siness in the transportation of freight and pas? sengers. The gauge, 'brer- feet and a half, ls found no obstacle to its efficiency for carrying freight, while the accommadattons for passen? gers are described as entirely comfortable aud satisfactory. -The London Telegraph, commenting upon the published interview of a correspondent of the New York World with Charles Bradlaugh, the coming Cromwell of England, says it would be putting; the case mildly to say that we are on the brink oi a revolution. We should Indi? cate the danger very gently by saying that we are on the edge of the crater of a volcano, lot* revolutions are sometimes mitd, and volcanoes sometimes "lumber, while our doom is sure. -Concerning the Intimation of suspension of the writ of habeas corpus in Georgia, the Augusta (Ga.) Chronicle reports, upon Repub? lican authority, thal the threatened counties are Washington, Jefferson, Burke, Hancock, Qlasscock, Warren, Columbia, Lincoln, Elbert and Wilkes, and in the counties o? Floyd, Chattooga and Whitfield; and, it adds, "in this same district we beat of boasts irom certain parties that they will wreak revenge by the aid ol United Slates troops." -Russia, while waiting for an opportunlly to make her grand stroke on the Danube, is continually employing her leisure In conquests on her eastern border. The New York Tribune gives an account of the Russian Invasion and annexation of Dzoungaria, on the northern slopes ol the Tian-Cbian mountains. Almost without exciting the attention oft be world, the army of the Czar has Incorporated Into his dominions a territory twice as large as Ireland, rich In mineral and agricultural resources. -John Quincy Adams comes out flatfooted against woman suffrage. In a letter lo tho committee appointed by the suffrage seekers of Massachusetts to obtain the views of the candidates on this subject, he says : "Alter careful thought and some study I am ?rmly and unequivocally opposed to woman suffrage, and shall feel lt my duty in the very improba? ble contingency o? my ever occupying any considerable public office lo stand by the old Immemorial division of activities and nine Hons which seem to me to be at the foundation ot society." -The Gypsy parliament] which meets once every seven years, and consists of delegates irom all of the countries of Europe, ls expected to assemble soon near Canstatt, In Germany. The king of this nomadic race is one Joseph Reinhard, who has reached the venerable uge of ninety-eight years. He has had seven wives, and ls the father of forty-five children. There are in Spain about 40,000 Gypsies, in England more than 13,000, while Austria has 97,000, and Moldavia and Wallachia are the chosen homes of nearly 200,000 more. Their religion lus been the subject oi much unsatis? factory discussion. Perhaps the Hindoo say lng, "there are seventy-two religions anti ;\ half in the world, the half being the religion of the Jhats" (or Gypsies,) comes as near to a correct definition as any. -A New York letter, of Monday, say*: 'The election next week promiser to be one of the most exciting on record. The Tam? many Ring are making a personal affair of lt, acting oe the principle that ii they can only 'maintain themselves before the people, a strong point will have been gained in main? taining their position also in the courts. The Reformers, aware of these motives and tac? tics, are doing all they can to consolldate.their forces, without reference to the ordinary dis? tinctions of "Democrat"' and "Republican," and thus far they appt-ar to be meeting with a fair measure of success. As an evidence of the readiness of even extreme party tuen to forge past prejudices lor the sake ol the com? mon weal now, lt is worth while mentioning that ex-Uovernor Seymour, who has been nominated in one of the eily Assembly dis? tricts, is endorsed by the Tribune. It may be that the Governor will not accept, but the en? dorsement ls none the less MgnifJcant.'' -The ladies were in state of raptu: o at1 Prospect Park, Brooklyn, on TueBday, for on that day and at that place there was a genuine bab)-show of quite respectable dimensions. This novel entertainment attracted a large au? dience, ana created a tremendous flutter in that portion ol the feminine world which is included in the City of Churches. The exhibi? tion cf iuiunis was preceded by a general and thorough laving, dressing and adorning ol the Interesting contestants, and when the pre? liminaries were arranged satisfactorily, the assiduous nurses marshalled tbejr procession .'in arms"' and repaired to the arena of adoles? cent encounter. The entries were limited to two-year olds and under, and the list embraced an infinite variety. There were babes round? headed, long-headed and flat-headed; babes with dark hair, light hair and no hair at all; babes with Roman noses and Grecian noses, black eyes and blue eyes; babes smillDg and laughing and crowing and chirruping and snarling and crying and yelling-each one Axed up in its best, and anxiously attended by its mamma^nd nurse. The visitors examined the collection with great interest, inquired the age of this one, chucked that one under the chin, sent the other one into a violent flt of shrieking by gazing steadfastly at it, and kissed all ol them with promiscuous fervor. The "committee," after due deliberation, made an award lor the handsomest specimen, there? by establishing another argument in favor of female suffrage, for what masculine mind could have grr^pled successfully with so stu? pendous and bewildering a problem ? The Thanks or Chicago. We are sure that every contributor to the purse for Chicago will read with unalloyed pleasure the following feeling letter from the Treasurer of the Chicago Relief and Aid Society : CHICAGO, October 27, 1871. Messrs. Riordan, Dawson ? Co., Proprietors "Charleston News,'1 Charleston, S. C. : GENTLEMEN-Your kind and sympathizing letter of October 21st to Mayor Mason has been trans:crred to the bands of this society, together with the generous donation of $321 30-100, from warm-hearted Charleston to broken-hearted Chicago. Our prostrate people will be more touched by this contribution than by many of greater amount, which come from other more prosperous sources, since ihe kind words and ieeliug which accompany the gilt rassure tis once more that "all the world's "akin."' Such hearty manifestations from the South-and they are numerous in this time of trial-convince us anew that we of America, at least, are one people; and over the red fields which lie between us and those who this day bless us with their bounty, we stretch our empty bands in a meurnlul benediction on the givers of this sacred fund. In the name of Chicago In ashes, and In the name of humanity, we thank you. Respectfully yours, GEORGE M. PULLMAN, Treas. Chicago Belief and Aid Society. ?tlncational Ueform. .? We will endeavor to sum up the recom? mendations of our correspondent "Fair "fleld,'' whose pungent articles upon Educa? tional Reform are now before the public. It may be well, however, to say, in the begin? ning, that "Fairfield" is an old citizen of this State, who knows practically what teaching is, anti who, for many years, has studied the great problem of popular educa'ion. Passing over the assumption of "Fairfield" that the State is necessarily the proper agent for the education of its citizens, and concurring with him in the conclusion that taxes for educational purposes benefit all classes, we lind that "Fairfield" makes the following recommendations : 1. That the Legislature abolish the medi? cal and law schools oi the University of South Carolina, tod that the University, dropping its high-sounding title, take its old name, and become once nure the South Carolina College. That the College be con? trolled by five trustees, with not a politician or colored man among them. That the Col? lege be virtually pledged to the whites. 2. That a liberal appropriation be made to Clalliu University, which shall be reserved for the sentit of thc blacks. 3. That sixty or seventy free scholarships in the State College (over and beyond those now given to the counties) be distributed among the high schools and academies, to be giveu U3 prizes for competition among their pupils. 4. That a board of examiners of known ?japacity be appointed, who, by unanimous vote, shall confer a certificate upon such ap? plicants as shall Ue found qualified to teach in the public schools. That a State Normal School be established for girls and young women-without distinction on account of color. This school would prepare female teachers for examination, while the male teachers would be prepared at the South Carolina College und Claflin University. But any persons may appear before the Board of Examiners, and stand their exami? nation as teachers, whether they were edu? cated privately or at the pubblic schools. 5. That two public high echools (one for each race) be established at every county seat. That the salaried office of couuty school commissioner be abolished, and tba principal of the county high school be the executive officer to carry into effect the plans of the county board of education,' which should be composed of the very best citizens. 6. Tnat the two race3 be taught in sepa arate schools, but that the sexes be co educated. These are :he main propositions or "Fair "tield," and some of them, at least, may be regarded ar startling innovations. But our correspondent is thoroughly in earnest, and, where we most dillerfrom him, we cheerfully admit the force with which he puts his side of the case. It was eur purpose to direct at'entionto lae miserable short comings of our system of publ/j schools, and to invite the suggestions of experienced teachers. We have partly accomplished our object, and we hope that tho Legislature, at its next session, will rind lime to discuss the ques? tion of education, and make such changes as will increase the efficiency of the public schooi3 without any large additional ex? pense. In the meantime we shall be pleased to receive any brief and well-considered papers upon the subject. WE WOULD remind our readers I hat the Columbia Sute Fuir opens on the Cth; and tiiat the Survivors* Association meets on the 9th, and will assemble to Lear General Ear? ly's oration on the following day. AN ABSI'RD rumor is eui rent in Columbia, viz: that Mr. Treasurer Parker linds the North so pleasant thal he wm m ver return to his cozy quarters in the State CapitoL Wh) not? The Iiutallatfon of Mayor Wagener [From the Columbia Phoenix of yesterday.] Yesterday, in Charleston, we presume that General Wagener, the Mayor elect, was, with? out noisy demonsirations, duly Inaugurated. We congratulate the City of Charleston upon this event. General Wagener will make an efficient Mayor. The Carolina and Teutonic elements are so blended in his composition as to make him a devoted and efficient cilizen. A man of solid parts and of public spirit, it wiil be his effort and his pride to wear with honor and dignity the mantle so generously laid upon his broad shoulders by the suffrages of both races in Charleston. Germany's Gains. The magnitude ol the French indemnity to Germany has hardly been realized as yet, bul the frequent payments so remorselessly ex? acted are already beginning to make their effect evident in the money market and- to bring about some conception of the vastness of the burden imposed upon France. The Messager Franco-Am?ricain calis attention to the amount Involved by comparing it with others. It represents the combined gold crops of California and Australia for ten years, and equals all the gold that was drawn from this continent during the first half of the present century. The whole product of the famous silver mines o? Potosi for three and one-half j centuries,, according to Humboldt, was only twenty per cent, greater in its amount than this exhaustive spoliation of France. All the gold and silver dug out of the earth for fiv\> years, at the present rate of production, would only suffice to pay it, and that at the cost ol 1 handing over to Germany one-tenth of the whole available fund pl specie now existing among men. It is not strange that the*pre mium on gold should rise in France, and that French bank bills should be accepted across the Channel only at a discount. It is surprising only that the fall has not been more speedy and greater. do ?cnt. TO KENT, HOUSE AND STORE, No. 504 King street, and More No. 529 Ring street.

Have you ever draak a cup of my Dollar Tea ? ir you buy such Tea elsewhere, I'd advise you on the score of economy to try mine, as I guarantee lt to be all pure Tea, and no: the combination or Tea and foreign mixtures generally sold lu this market at that price ?
