NEWS OF THE DAT. -Gold closed on Saturday at illili J. -Cotton In New York, on Saturday, closed weak and nominal ; uplands ISA cents; Bales 3548 bales. -The Liverpool colton market opend dull and closed heavy; uplands D?d, Orleans Djd; sales 8000 bales. -They are forming what professes to be a national guard in Alabama, but the papers aver that it ls nothing more nor less than a Radical Ku-Klux Klan. -It ls.asserted on the authority of Senator Poole, that President Grant has expressed his determination to declare martial law through? out the entire South, In consequence of the continued outrages. -The nude figure on the splendid new pub? lic fountain in Cincinnati bas called forth the following lines from a local poet : Der shmall poy staid* on der fonntaln, Und l.e don't got on any close. Und some young girls dey all plush and say. "Vat he means by such conduct as dote?" -On the 12th of December there will be another total eclipse of the sun. Astronomers < will have to go further to see lt than they went to see the eclipse of last year. The south of | urope was the necessary point ol observation for the latter, but the coming phenomenon must be viewed from the southern extremity of Java, the coast of Arabia, or the northern parts of Sumatra and Australia. -A remarkable religious reformation ls now in progress in Syria, thousands ol Mohamme? dans, according lo reports from that country, being converted to Christianity. The move? ment began Ia 1868 in a society of Museulmen, la the vicinity of Damascus, led by one Abdel Karim Matar. There are said to be no less than five thousand neophytes in Damascus alone. Whole villages are offering themselves In a body tor conversion, and some ol the , richest Moslems are among the converts. A collision between the Christians and Mobarn-1 medans ls feared. -Toe Australian Colonial Parliament passed five times the law permitting in that colony a j marriage with a deceased wife's sister, and it was only after repeated refusals to sane- j tlon such legislation that the British colo? nial office ha? finally confirmed the act. The Queen, using her veto, always refused her assent, on the ground that the pro? position was diametrically at variance with a fundamental principle of English law. The statute of the Australian Parliament was finally confirmed, on the express ground that lt was passed with little opposition In both houses, and that there was a strong popular feeling la Its favor. -New York ls ia a whirl ot excitement Just now. The Duke delays his coming, and real appr?hensions are beginning io be felt and ex? pressed for bis salety. Ashbury has departed, and says he will never return. He admits that J he lost the Queen's cup, but contends ibat the committee did not run the races in a sports? manlike manner. He will make no claim for the coveted goblet, cooslderlng'discretlon the better part of valor. The coruer-slone ol the East River bridge tower, on the New York side, was laid last Tuesday, (iovernor Hoff? man has changed Thaks^iviog Day to the 30tb. On election day many of the merchants in the city have agreed lo suspend business. -The German Arctic expedition did not dis? cover the open eea after all, a fact which ls rather mortifying to the knights ol the quill who made such an outcry over tbe false re? port. Some practical, scientific Individual, who has no sot'.i for sentiment, iou rms the too confiding public that what they did discover j was "an open channel between Spitsbergen and Nova Zembla, which, it was surmised (mark the word} might possibly lead into an open polar spa." It remains to be proved that this channel was anything more than a tempo? rary' opening through the ice, and that a sec? ond expedition may not fl Dd it locked as secure? ly ?H any other part of the Arctic seas. -What with the conference ol crowned heads and prime ministers, and the army re? organizations in every direction, Europe would seem to be on the eve cf a great con? vulsion. That the great pavers are jealous of ] each other, and the second-rates afraid of the results ot the hob-nobbing of the men who have the destiny of Europe ia their hands, is evident France is reorganizing her shattered army; Sweden and Norway are training; Eng? land is recruiting and accumulating war ma- j terial; Russia ls making soldiers ol all her male population fit to bear arms, and Prussia is quietly repairing her losses by last year's campaign. All this may be in the Interest of peace, but it don't look that way to outsider?. -A very smart young Chinaman, named Yung Wing, graduated at Yale College In 1854. He stood at the head of his class, and was especially distinguished for his talent as a writer of the English language. He was edu? cated there with a view to his becoming a mis. Blonary of the Christian religion In his native country; tut in the course of his studies his theological opinions became unsettled, and he abandoned bis proposed calling in order to de? vote himself to commerce. He has now been employed by the Chinese Government to bring j over thirty other yonog Chinamen who are io be educated at Yale College at the public ex? pense. It 1B said I hat thirty Chinese students are to be entered at Yale College yearly during the next ten years, and a sum of $150,000 a year has been appropriated by the Chinese Government to pay their expenses. -The Washington Patriot says : "Southern Radical senators now ia Washington boast of j the continuance ot the martial law pro? gramme ot the administration far beyond the limits of the nine counties in South Carolina. One of these ofilciale, who bas consulted with the President, declares that the Ku-Klux law will be enforced and tbe writ of /tabeas corpus suspended In every portion ol the South where the evidence ol the Ku-Klux Committee alleges that outrages have been committed. The wholesale arrests in South Carolina but pre? cede those that will shortly be inaugurated in Northern Alabama and Georgia, and Mississip? pi, and probably Texas. The President is urged daily to take these violent steps by the al vice of Southern Republicans, who also threaten him ibat the ground ls slipping rapidly un 1er their feet. In tue face of an im? pending Presidential campaign." -Lieutenant Brandenburg, of the First Low er Sllesian Iniantry, bas had aa hooor which neither he nor any connected with him will ever forget or cease to be proud of. It is some thing to be one of a regiment singled out for appreciative distinction on account of good betavlor. But what must it be to be selected from a vast army as the most personaliy hero? ic of all, and to have the compliment paid, as it were, in the presence of the whole civilized world ? Such has been the enviable fate of Lieutenant Brandenburg. It seems that an English lady of high rank, at the close of the war, asked Victoria, the Crown Princess of Prussia, to give to the wife, mother, or be? trothed of the man in the German army most distinguished for a personal act of bravery, a certain cross of goid and jewels, in token of his achievement. For some time the investi? gation has been going on, there being many, of course, in tbat splendid body of soldiers having streng claims to this distinction. How? ever, Lieutenant Brandenberg is the success? ful one, bis magnificent courage at the taking of the first cannon from the enemy-at Worth, August 6, 1870-having been adjudged in this respect pre-eminent. This, Indeed, is an honor to be proud ol, and a glorious heritage to leave ; to one's children's children. f New State Bonds. When the Scott-Radical party came into power, three years ago, their first act was to provide the means of raising money for meet? ing the expenses of the State. Loan after loan was authorized, but the new bonds, instead of being sold in the market for what they would bring, were hypothecated by the Financial Agent as security for moneys which he obtained. The bold scheme ol making the interest and principal of the bonds pay? able in coin was a stock-jobbing manouvre, and the new bonds in June, 1870, were forced above eighty. Then, a decline be? gan. Last May the new bonds ranged from sixty to sixty-five. A month ago, they were quoted at fifty-two. On Thursday they were sold at thirty-six. On Friday they touched twenty-eight, but on Saturday they recov? ered and closed at thirty-seven. The general cause of the gradual fall in prices, which began last year, is the public want of confidence in the honesty or ability of the State officials. It is true that debt statements have, lrom time to time, been published, but these have not been accepted as the whole truth. And, besides, the finan? cial nfldirs of the State are managed in a way which is loose and hazardous in the extreme. When the Ia?p_ajej&'.?oDveDtioD assem? bled, last May|tneTwlTOrir5g^t of the State held $1,800,000 of State bonds, which were pledged as security for $800,000, which be bad advanced to the State. These bonds were hypothecated to secure loans. As prices declined, or as the money market tightened, the banks called in their loans. The money was not forthcoming, and block after block of bonds was pressed upon the market. Rumors of fraudulent issues are, naturally enongb, as thick as blackberries; but so notoriously profligate and irresponsible are the carpet-bag governments of the Sontb, that a sale of nearly two million dollars of bonds ia the course of a few months might be fully sufficient to cause a temporary col? lapse of the credit of this State. We do not know whether there have been any over issues of State bond?, and it is difficult to say whether the Stale officials have, or have not, endeavored to prevent the terrible decline in the price of the new issue?. Whatever bonds are sold by Mr. Kimpton to cover his advances to the Stale will be credited to the State at the price which they bring in the market. The peo? ple may think themselves lncky if the eight hundred thousand dollars due Mr. Kimpton do not cost the State, ic bonds, more than twice the amount. But the bonds will rise sgaio. Governor Scott, Treasurer Parker and Comptroller Neagle are in New York They control all the moneys of the State, and it would be a profitable transaction to force the collection of the taxes of 1871 this winter-contrary to the Governor's prom? ise-nnd, upon the failh of thal collection, run np the new bonds, as has been done be? fore, to twice their present price. In this way the Ring may pocket additional millions on the plea of maintaining the credit of the State. We wonk! urge bona fide owners of the State bonds-old or new-to bold on to their securities io any event. The de? preciation of vaines may not last long, and the interest will, doubtless, be regularly paid. Wise Words from the "Old North State.41 The Central Executive Committee of the Democratic Conservative party of North Carolina, in their address to the people of the State, recommend several constitutional amendments which are deemed necessary to "relieve the people from the burdensome "and extravagant State government that "now swallows up their earnings, and "fastens upon them a State debt which "they cannot pay." They declare that the parly which Ihey represent has always condemned crime, by whomsoever commit? ted, and they again urge their friends "to "set their faces against violence and law "lessness of all kinds, and to be especially "active in preventing secret outrages by "disguised persons." Upon the subject ol the relation of their State to National politi? cal parties, they speak warmly and wisely, and we commend their counsel to the atten? tion of those of our people who lean to the opinion that the Sooth should not send dele? gates lo the National D?mocratie Conven? tion. They say : "It ls to be regretted that the people of this State have failed to take any very active Inter? est in national politics since the close ot the late war. In our judgment this is unwise. Our people are ol the Union-lt 1B our gov eminent, and t > it we muet lo.k, as we have the right, lor support and protection in our rights ol Hie, liberty and property at home and abroad; we owe lt allegiance and support, and it ls a patriotic duty to yield these. It is as much our du.y to join our fellow-country? men In shaping and controlling the policy and destiny of this great common National Government. We have all the rights that any ol the American people have, and we are false to the country and ourselves if we fall to re? cognize, exercise and act upon them. The people have rights-let them exercise them firmly and respectfully, and, when need be, assert them as freemen and American citi? zens in the councils of the nation, in political assemblages and everywhere. It we consent to be dwarfed and ignored nationally, then. Indeed, we may expect to be for all lime to come." The committee, in conclusion, invite every lover of liberty and free government to co-operate with the National Democratic party In the endeavor to remove the tre? mendous evils with which the whole country is threatened, and which injure and depress the struggling Sutes of the South. A Word to the Union. The statement made by the Columbia Union, that THE CHARLESTON NEWS denies the existence of such an organization aB the Ku-Klux, is not true. -We have said, and do still say, that many of the outrages which the Union para? ded in its columns as chargeable upon Ku Kluxism were not committed at all; while most of the rest were either the work of ne? groes, or the result of private broils. But W9 have not, since the raid upon the Union County jail, had arjy doubt, or expressed any doubt, of the existence in South Caro? lina of a secret organization whose object is the punishment of criminals and the correc? tion of local abuses. Nor have we defended or justified that organization. On the con? trary, we have always condemned Ku-Klox ism as morally wrong, as well as unwise and inexpedient. "We are curious to see whether the Union will take any notice of this contradiction of its stateLient in regard to THE NEWS. Tin Newman Morder. The Cbesterfldd Democrat prints the affi? davit of Mrs. Newman as conclusive proof that her husband, John T. Newman, was accidentally stabbed by Silas Ingram. The coroner of the county addresses a letter to the Democrat, in which he says that the evi? dence at the inquest showed that the killiDg was accidental. This ''Newman murder," as it is called, has been put down as a Ku Klux crime by the Chesterfield correspond? ent of the Union, which paper may take its choice between the assertions of itB corres, pondent, and the sworn BtatemeDt of Mrs. Nc?:man, sustained by the verdict of the ! jury of inquest. THE Pickens Sentinel says there is DO trutii in the statement of the Columbia Union that "an armed band" has made its appearance ib, or passed through, the Village of New PickeDS. Kin g? v ll ie to Millen. THE Sumter Xeics learns that it is proposed, by a company io purchase from the Wilming? ton, Columbia and Augusta Railroad Company the end of their road from Sumter in the di? rection of Kingsville, (which will probably be abandoned on the completion of the through line,) and build an air line from that point to Millen, Georgia, which wiil open a short through line for the Southern and Western travel geing North, and place Sumter on an Important through lin* for travel. To Charleston, Greeting ! [From the Marlboro' Times ] In the midst of all these evils affecting their prosperity, the people of Charleston have re? mained true to themselves-have preserved unsullied their reputation for honor and virtue, and have given to the world an example of | fortitude amid trials and sufferings worthy of [ emulation, and which will not soon be forgot? ten. And now that a better day is about to dawn upon them, there is not a true man in South Carolina who does not rejoice with them, and hope that the future of their city may be far more glorious than even the proud est portion of her past has been. * ? We have sorrowed with her In the day of her adversity; no eye will grow brighter and no heart beat quicker at the signs and tokens ol her prosperity. fjostctter's Silters. ??tTBE MARTYRS OF NEGLECT - It ls not too much to ssy that tens of thousands who are now Buffering irom biliousness, indiges? tion, constipation, periodical fevers, general de? bility and nervous affections, who might ba re' stored to perfect health within a month or less by the use or HOStErTER'?
