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?

that coanes home to us sevrreiy, lor if you

There is no such amount as that which P

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

consideration and earnest debate. It is furth
