Address RIORDAN. DAWSON A 00.. No. 149 East Bay. Charleston, S.C. ?&ht ?tyafteston 3&to|. SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 4, 1871. NEWS OE THE DAT. -Gold closed yesterday at ll^allj. -The New York cotton market closed with a downward tendency; uplands 18$ cents; sales 2080 bale?. -In Liverpool cotton closed dull; uplands 9^d., Orleans 9jd.; sales 12,000 bales. -Gold is at present quoted at two per cent, premium in France. -Chicago is to have a new law court to fet? tle disputed land titles arising in consequence of the recent fire. -The capital employed In the wine trade of France is $580,000,000, while that embarked In the cotton trade is but ?40,000,000. -The Massachusetts mills have seat an agent to Hong Kong to employ coolies for operatives. A cargo of them ls expected at Salem. -Russia has a new mitrailleur, Invented by General Gorloff, which kills men twice as fast and twice as iar as the French affair killed them. -The nail manufacturers of the Atlantic States have decided to advance prices fifteen per cent., in consequence of the loss of 100,000 kegs by the Chicago fire. -Eugenie declined all public honors while travelling in Spain. She replied to King Amadeus's proffer of civilities by saying that she returned to Spain as an unfortunate woman, anxious to see once more the land of her birth, where she had been so happy. -A good instar-ce of "sharp practice" ls that of a man in Ohio, who was acquitted of mur? der on a plea of insanity. He had secured his lawyers by giving them a mortgage on his farm, but now repudiates the mortgage on the ground th at he was Insane when he made lt, according to the showing of these same law? yers. -The lortune of the Princess de Metternich -between whom and her husband, Prince de Metternich, the Austrian Ambassador to France, a divorce ls now pending-ls appraised at sixteen million florins. The Prince's own lortune, which was very large, is nearly all gone, it having mostly been spent during his twelve years' residence in Paris as Aus? trian Ambassador under the Empire. A great part of lt was expended in the lavish prolusion of the Princess do Metternich while seeking to rival the Empress Eugenie as leader of fashions in the French capital. -Phosphorescence in animals, and especi? ally In fish, lt ls stated, ls due to the slow oxi? dation of the fat which is always found to bo present when this phenomenon ls observed. In the case of fish, the oxygen of the atmos? phere very readily penetrates the skin, and acts*upon the subcutaneous fatly tissues. The phenomenon, lt is stated, is promoted by plac? ing the phosphorescent substance in oxygen, but ls entlsely arrested by placing it In car? bonic acid, fresh water, alcohol, or any solu? tion not containing oxygen. Immediately after death the phosphorescence usually com? mences, and continues until decomposition sets in with the disengagement of ammonia, when lt immediately ceases. -The iollowiDg, dated October 0th, is a translation ot information received at the Navy Department from Dr. A. Petermnn, ol Goilia: ?TUB telegram dated October 3, 1871, which announces the return ol' Captain* Weyprecht and Lieutenant Payer, ot the Austrian army, states that In ibe month ol September an open sea was found from 42 degrees to GO degrees east of Greenwich, to the northward of 78 de? grees north latitude. The northernmost point reached was 79 degrees north. On the meri? dian 48 degrees east was found the most favor? able state ol ice towards the not th pole, with a probable connection with the open sea north of Siberia towards the east. This appears lo be the most favorable route towards the north pole." ' -The "National Zeitung,'' in commenting upon the growth of Berlin, Eays, that except? ing the cities of North America, no other me? tropolis of Europe has progressed in anything like the samo proportion as the chief city of Prussia. In 1790 Paris held a population ot 800,000 inhabitants, while Berlin at the same period ha? about 120,000, having increased from 20,000 souls in iii- century which elapsed since 1G90. From 1817illl'1831.thepopulation of Berlin rose only from 188,000 to 230,000, but in the next twenty years lt amounted to 3.0, 000. Had the population continued lo aug? mentin the same ratio from 1851 to 1871, Ber? lin would now contain 630,000 persons, but lt was shown by the census ot 18C4 that at that date the population had risen to G32.000, and in 1867, although a war had intervened, it was found to be 702,000. The "National Z-*itun;-" argues that the immense influx of peop'eantl the natural increase of the popuialion will, in all reasonable probability, give 800,000 inhabi? tants lor Berlin when the census returns ol 1871 are added up. It is also contended that Berlin will exhibit a still more extraordinary increase during the next ten years, alter it has become the capital of the new German Empire. -Kaiser William's speech at the opening of ! the Reichstag, as appears from the lull lext thereof, was unexceptionable In res. ect to one Important point, namely, brevity. lu the few words which he allowed himself, he touched upon only the more important topics, and his Highness was dutifully cheered both at his en? trance and exit. In regard to the budget, he hoped that the Reichstug would be able to re? lieve the Federal stales irom their iormer pecuniary advance.?, by the employment of a portion of the means secured by the war. He thought that the time had arrived lor laying the foundutran ol' a new organization ol the coinage, and fur .eec iring a line ol' railway connection between Germany aod Italy. The policy wnich had bren adopted respecting ihe evacuation of the occupied departments was t defined, and thc Imperial desire to make the new German etnnlre "a reliable shield* of peace'1 was expressed. The Emperor then al? luded to Ihe reconciliation with Austria, and characterized the lrlendly Mations existing between the two nations as being ol such a kind that "their reality shall be undoubled in the public opinion of every country." That this was so, he affirmed, was specially pl.-as ing to his heart, an<i with bil hand upon his heart, he thanked Heaven, as usual, ami with? drew. -There -ny <".< len ?tory ol' any size, and never has been but one, occupied by any considerable population, from which woman ls absolutely excluded. Yet euch a place ex? ists to-day, and has existed for centuries. As far back as history reaches, to all females it bas been forbidden ground. This bachelor's Arcadia is situated on a bold plateau between the old peninsula ol Acte, in the Grecian Archi? pelago, and the mainland. Here, in the midst of | cultivated fields and extensive woodlands, dwell a monastic confederation of Greek Christians, with twenty-three convents, and numbering more than seven thousand souls, and not one of the monasteries dates from a later time than the twelith century. A lew soldiers guard the borders of this anti-female land, and no woman is allowed to cress the frontier. Xor is this ai!; the nile is extended to every female creature, and from time im? memorial no cow. mare, hen, duct or goose has been permitted to make acquaintance with hill or valley of Mount Athos territory. A traveller was startled by the abrupt question, "What sort of human creatures are women The very idea of woman, whether as mother, wife or sister, Is almost lost. To all woman haters; to bachelors of over forty years' stand? ing; to all men who seek refuge from the wiles and ways ol'the opposite sex, this region can be 8aiely recommended as a haven ol refuge. Pay l p Your Taxes. The announcement that the retiring City Government leaves an imposing array of j unpaid bills to be Eettled by the present ad? ministration will cause little surprise. Where the expenditures are unnecessarily heavy, and the taxpayers have no confidence in their nominal representatives, it is to be ex. peeled that the balance will be on the wron? side of the account The new Council have already taken steps to ascertain the amount of their liabilities and the rate of current expenses, and at the meeting on Thursday evening they received, from the City Treas? urer, the following statement of sums now due for the public institutions and the like: Almshouse.t 3,872 ll Board of Health. 5,521 10 Firemasters. 4.589 25 Clly Guard. 12,878 56 House of Correction. 56 76 Improvement account. 75 00 Old Folks'Home. 556 02 Orphanhouse. 3,871 27 Public Printing. 10 00 Street?. 6,995 05 Tidal Drains. 20 77 Gas Company. 2,500 00 City officers. 3,120 00 Total.$44,065 89 These claims were referred to the commit? tee on accounts, but Council ordered that the police receive to-day their pay for the month of September. Other claims will pro? bably come to light, but all of them will be carefully examined, and, if correct, paid as rapidly as circumstances will allow. -We would remind tb? taxpayers that it is in their power to relieve the new adminis? tration of some embarrassment by paying promptly whatever taxes are due. There were good reasons for delaying every pay? ment until the last moment; but these no longer exist, and we hope that every citizen who can do so, will make bis payments with? out taking advantage of all the extension o? time which the Council have considerately granted. We are agreed that it is best to discharge promptly whatever just debts the city may owe. This is a saving of inter? est and a strengthening of credit. It is an advantage to the laborer, to thc official and to the bolder of the obligations of tbe city. But tbe promptitude of payment depends on tbe promptitude of the taxpayers. Tuxes lo the amount of one hundred thousand dollars are now due the city, and lt is earnestly de? sired that they be liquidated at once. Treat n:< ni of tile Ku-Klui Prisoners. Sherill* Frazee, of Richland County, pub? lishes in the Columbia papers a card, forti? fied by the appended statements of sundry prisoners in bis charge, taking direct issae w?ib the account giveD in a recent letter to TUE NEWS, as to the ill treatment to which the Ku-Klux prisoners in Columbia were sai l to have been subjected. We can only say that the account was received and pub? lished in perfect good faith, and that we shall bo heartily glad to believe that the bar? barity described never existed at all in the institution over which Sherill Fruzee pre? sides. Significant Funs. There is a tannery and shoe manufactory in Oconee County, which employs eleven hands, and turns out, in a year, six thous? and hides and twelve hundred pairs of coarse boots. The proprietor, Mr. Lay, informs the Walhalla Courier that a raw bide worth S3, is worth from $8 to S12 when tanned, and, when the leather is made into boots and shoes, is worth from $20 to $30. The bark of the oaks which cover the hills of Oconee is worth three times the selling price of the forest lands. Three good trees give a cord of bark worth $5; and yet twenty of these trees, with the land on which they stand, are often sold for one dollar. It is estimated that Oconee Counly pays $20,000 a year for boots and shoe?, the raw material of which costs $3,000 and moy, all o? it, be obtained within the county limits. These significant facts are a conclusive ar? gument in favor of home manufactures. WE ARE glad to learn from the Yorkvilie Enquirer that there is no truth in the report thai three ladies in York have been arrested and put in prison, on the charge of aiding and abetting the Ku-Klux. Things are bad enough, wiihout a war upon iunocent and defenceless women. GENERAL P. H. BRADLEY has been elected President of the Abbeville Agricultural Soci? ety, in the place of Colonel D. Wyatt Aiken, who declined a re-election. Colonel Aiken was zealous, courteous and efficient, and his retirement is deeply regretted by the mem? bers of tLe Society. THE Village of Hodges, at the junction of | the Greenville and Columbia Railroad and the Abbeville Branch, expects to become a small Chicago in the rapidity of ita growth. The Press and Banner notices the recent erection, at Hodges, of a church and a cot? ton-gin, besides a number of stores and dwelling houses. Bismarck After England's Gold. The Court Journal, of Lo jdon, says : "Eng? land is at leDgth at war with Prussia in a way that coanes home to us sevrreiy, lor if you touch England's financial prosperity you touch her inmost vitality. Bismarck knows ibis, I audie is determined to touch lhat vitality of' England through her gold. He la havlr now to a lar^e extent and.wlll have lt foi England subscribed for a part of the Fr< loan, to pay the French war indemnity lo many, with an avid'ty amounting to reek neBS." * . * * * "The Bank of England is liable to be dra by the subscribers to Hie loan, and the d advanced by the bills being prematu presented by Bismarck. * * * * The only safety for the moment is to dedin discount the bills. Meet financial wai financial war. K Bismarck demands , when the bills become due, give bim b notes. England must stand as if behind terles and fortifications upon a note curre; as our safety against the Prussian inva who seeks our overthrow through finance. * * "If Bismarck seizes upon our bul he will have given a blow at the greatnes England which years will not heal." * ' "We must open our eyes fully to the imp< lng danger, and meet it boldly. Let us li gurate a bank note finance on a large scale as to meet the payments we have so serio: pledged ourselves to in bullion. Bull There is no such amount as that which P sia demands of France. All the deposits gold and silver, publicand private, in Eur and America, is less than two hundred milli sterling, and would not begin to pay hal the war indemnity of France to Prussia." England Arming. A report has just reached this country ( confidential address delivered' by the Eng Secretary ol State lor the War Departm? Hon. Edward Cardwell, on the military sit tion and army resources of Great Britain. '. authorities, according to Mr. Cardwell, h eince January, 1871, been engaged in prep iug an Improved gun, claimed to be the m powerful field arm in Europe, and had ber to issue them at the rate of one battery ev week to the horse artillery. An iminedl issue of the improved gun, it was stat would be made to tb?*field artillery. The \ Office, on November lsr, 1870, began to Isi small arms at the rate of one thousand a d and on April 1st, 1871, there were one nundi and fifty thousand Improved muskets in 1 hands ol the volunteers. Mr. Cardwell a 6ald that the military arrangements of Gr Britain could not be made in accordance w the example set by any foreign country, a argued that, while Germany, with an extei ed frontier and powerful neighbors, must necessity keep up a gigantic army, Englai being in an insular position, required oi such an army as would be sufficient to ma tain her own interests and her own honor. A recent cable dispatch from London Btal that at a continuous session of the Engl] Cabinet, held from October 23d to October 27i the question ol the proper foreign policy the government was the subject of serio consideration and earnest debate. It is furth announced that an immense amount of w material is being accumulated in the vario arsenal of Great Biitaln. The work of rec ganlzing the English army, it Is reported, actively going on, and the regiment? ol tl line are In numbers and efficiency bei: brought up to a war standard. .Vcw Pu bl lea tl ont,.
