I -The Journal de Paris says: "Napoleon HT considers himself as still the legitimate BOT- I erelgn of France; consequently he rel uses to release Irom their oath oT fidelity the officers who have written to him to ask whether they ought to place themselves at the disposal o' I the present government. 'Should a question I ? arise,' says he, 'between order and anarchy, I ; combat lor the tormer, but yon remain bound J by your oath until the moment that the coun try shall have been directly consulted. I am the legitimate BO ve reign.'" ! _^A.New York^correspondent, under date ol J the 13th instant, writes: "The Journals con? tinue to talk pretty lreely about the arrange-1 ments Tweed la making, if possible, to leave ] the country; but if lt were permissible to pub- ! Uah the plans ol the prosecution with reler ence to such a contingency, these specula-] tlons would be dismissed as absurd. There waa a time wheo the great chief of the Rlog might have followed io the tracks ol Wood- j ward aod Garvey; but, unless your correspon dent ls misinformed, lt ls now too late, and lt may be added no man ls more persuaded of J that fact than Tweed himself." I -Reverdy Johnson favors the proposed abandonment, by Lae Democratic party of the ground it has hitherto occupied. He recom? mends the tallowing policy tor adoption by the next National D?mocratie Convention: "Let. the members of the convention place belore tho country some name which all Conserva? tives as well as all Democrats cao support, and announce, if they declare any political principles, nothing which would be offensive to either conservative Republicans or Demo-, crats.. Il this shall be done, I believe that our triumph will be certain, and surely all should unite In labor to that eui who value the con-1 stltulloa ol the nation, and know lue worth of political and civil liberty." ' -The enormous increase of continental armies since the Crimean war is shown by comparing the figures of 1871 with those of 1852. At that time Prussia had only forty-five regiments of infantry and thirty-eight ol cav? alry; now she has one hundred and tarty-eight of inianiry and ninety-three of cavalry. In 1852 ?ranee had one hundred and two regi? ments of inlaulry and filly-six ol cavalry; now one hui.dre.d-and fifty-six and sixty-lour. Large as the present German army seems, it only ranks third In the list of European stand? ing armies. The lead is taken by Kassia with j one hundred and eighty-eight regiments of in? fantry, fifty-six of regular cavalry, und one hundred and fifty-eight ot Cossacks. Next, J and still superior to Germany comes France, j Austria bas eighty regiments ol infantry, Italy eighty, and England one hundred and sixty nine battalions and twenty-six mounted regi? ments. -North Carolina ls Jubilant at present, and justly so. She has discovered that tobacco can be grown in many of the counties west ot the Blue Ridge, and so she boldly flings out in the face of Virginia her red flag ol defiance. The I particular counties In which the culture ol the I tobacco r -at has been adopted have been noted hitherto lor the production of rich, j sweet grass, aud tor some ol the fluest apples J In the country. In 1869, a gentlemau from j Virginia, conslderlog that ihe soil aaa climate ought to be suitable for the production of lo bacco, tried the experiment by planting two acres; the tallowing year be tried twenty-five I acres, and this year one hundred aaa fifty acres. Each experiment has been a decided snccess. The bright yellow tobacco produced has a large leaf with a fine texture, and the color all that can be desired for a wrapper. Since Mr. Shelton has been so successful, several other gentlemen have gone luto the Dufliness, and lt is now asserted that they have 300,000 pounds ol tobacco for Hale this year in tb at Sute -George Alfred Townsend wrliies lo the Cincinnati Commercial: "Brigham Young's most noted wife 1B called Amelia; she ls a vivacious, spirited woman, about thirty-two years old, American born, and without chil? dren. Another of the president's wives is Mrs. Decker, who retains indications ot much for? mer beauty, and her daughters are the hand? somest of Brigham's children. The old gen? tleman looks out well for avocation? for his sons in-law, and it is said that in his will he hus divided all his property Into 6even hun? dred shares, given the bulk of it to the church, and distributed the rest equally among his families. I saw Brigham at the Social Hall, on the occasion of my last visit here, bid four of bis wives adieu. Toe old gentleman had been dancing, but had fatigued the legs of seventy years, nnd he approached the cluster of his helpmates, buttoned up in a blue overcoat with a white vest underneath, a red woollen comforter around his neck, and a worn silk hat in his hand. He looked very large, 6quare and bland, and he said with tenderness and dignity, shaking each by the hand: 'My dear, I bid you good night.' The wives crowding up, with apparent emulation, asked li it was his wish that they also should accompany him home. 'No.' said Brigham, 'stay as long as you please. I will have the carriage come back and walt for you at the door below. Good night.' They were all middle-aged women, commonplace but cheerful; Brigham ls said to object to his wives dancing round dances. It in wonderful that a Mormon with half a dozen wives can be jealous or fastidious about each ol them." 9 ' ? = j? Black Frost sit Last. A black frost has come at last. Ice was formed in the city on Wednesday night, anti we believe thut the freeze was general in the interior of thc Stale, as well os along the coast. Now, at least, the most timid of travellers may venture to vieit Charleston, and H?gering refugees will speed back to their homes. The fever is dead. And as ; we may expect, in the future, that the neces? sary sanitary precautions will be taken every summer, there is reason to hope that the | pestilence will not again raise its head for half a century to come. Already has Charleston put on an air of cheer and hope. The streets are gay with bustling crowds, while the business prospect is bright and full of promise. We have passed through a terrible ordeal ; bat energy and enterprise j will soon make up for lost time, and com? press into three months the work of half a year. Charleston ls thoroughly alive, and will soon convince the commercial world that rapidity of growth and a skilful use of natural advantages are not confined to the cities of the North and West. With a thoroughly healthy city and a vigorous Mu? nicipal Government, we can snap our fingers at advers'ty and bind coy tune to our shores. for ^jip' he w*r wit* th?liing. Ten days ago our contemporary, The. Courier, published a dispatch announcing that it bad been ascertained that the Ameri? can Bank-note Company, of New York, bad printed $20,040,000 or the bonds of the State of South Carolina. This was the beginning of a succession of disclosures which have opened wide the eyes of tne public, and shown Northern Republicans that, if they would be consistent, they must give to the outraged taxpayers of South Carolina at least j their moral support The Democrats of New York fought side by side with the Repu bli cans in the battle with the Tweeds, Inger? solls and Garveys of the New York Ring. And we have a right to expect from the | honest people of the North all the counte? nance they can give as as a return for the | help given them, in their struggle with cor? ruption, by Democratic journals, Democratic officials, Democratic lawyers and Democratic citizens. For, the contest ia Sooth Carolina, still more than the contest with the Tam? many Ring, is devoid of political or party purposes. We make no factious opposition to the Government of the State. We recog? nize the officers of the State Government and faithfully obey the laws. We have no thought of interfering with the rights or privileges of any class of citizens. All that ] we ask is, that we have honest and capable agents who will administer the public affairs with an impartial justice, and will honestly collect and pay oat the revenues of the State. We believe that the all-absorbing wish of the white citizens of the State is to obtain a good government. Ours is no war with Republicanism, or with Republican principles. We stand now where we stood during the Reform canvass. And, as was declared by the South Carolina Democracy more than three years ago, the reforms we need we expect to obtain by peaceful agen? cies alone. But what is the coane of the officers of the State Government? Their history is a sickening record of promises broken and trusts betrayed. Goveraor Scott bas again and again been convicted of flagrant ter? giversation. The Comptroller-general has, for two years past, omitted from the offi? cial statements all account of the millions of i bonds held in pawn by the Financial Agent of toe State. And now Governor Scott, Mr. Treasurer Parker and General John B. Den? nis acknowledge, under their officiai signa? tures, that lhere has been aa appalling over? issue of State bond?. It is suggested by their friends that they do not mean what they say. We admit that they may have told the truth by accident But we are justi? fied in requiring that, upon their own con? fession, Ihey be deemed guilty until they prove .their innocence. In their card, pub? lished OD the 6th instant, they say : To the Public : Many false representations and statements have been made and published against the credit of Die Stale of South Carolina. It ls true that $20,040,000 ol bonds have beeo printed, ot which amount $9,000,000 have never been signed or Issued, uor were'?.ey Srinted wllh the intention to lacrease the tate debt, but are in possession of the State authorities ; also,$3,5O0,000 sterling hoads have beeo printed but aol Issued, and $2,500,000 ot registered Block are now ia the hands of the treasurer of the State, being a balance of $5,040,000 WBued. Hie Legislature from lime to time passed several acts for the issue ol bonds "to pay the Indebtedness of the Stale." Subsequently it passed aa aa for the eua version of its s ecu- - rltles. To provide for this the ?>bove amount In bonde was printed, which has glveu rise to many grouudletB mlsreffteaemalionB and gross lubrications. H. K. SCOTT. Governor of South Carolina. HILES G. PARKER, Treasurer. JouS' B. Dancxia, Chairman of the Commit-1 ? . tee ol ?lui? Accounts. This 13 aa admission: 1. That $28,i80, OOO of bonds and stocks have been printed. 2. That $13,580,000 of this amount have been issued. But the debt of the State on September 20, according to Govenor Scott's own statement, was only $9,528,564, to meet which $13,580,000 of bonds have been issued. And this may not be all. As the Ring have printed, without authority, $28, 580,000 of bonds, so may they have printed many million more. The total amount of | sterling funding bonds authorized by the Legislature was $6,000,000; and Governor Scott puta down the contingent railroad liabi iti?3 of the State at SC, 713,608. Taking, then, Governor Scott's own account, we have the fellowing statement of oar financial condition : Bonds : Issued.$11,040,000 Beady tor issue. 9,000,000 -$20,040,000 00 Sterling bonds : Ready for issue.$3,500,000 Authorized to be issued 2,500,000 6,000,000 ?0 5,040,000 00 Contingent liabilities : Railroad endorsement. 6,712,608 20 Registered stock : Issued.$2,540,000 Beady for issue.2,500,000 Total.$37,792,608 20 Now, if these statements are not true, ir the official triumvirate published a deliberate falsehood, why is not proof given ef the \ fact? The Financial Chronicle, the Wall street organ, a cool and non-political paper of high authority, tells the State officers that "if they can really clear themselves ''from the grave charges" with which they have been assailed, they most make "a fuller j "and clearer statement-' of the financial condition of the State "than bas ever been "published since the war." No such state- j ment is forthcoming. The New York World, the New York Daily Bulletin and the New York Herald prefer the same request. But the Ring are silent Tte only answer vouchsafed to charges of fraud and corrup? tion is the flippant declaration of the Ring organ-the Columbia Union-tbat it will not "be drawn into a long controversy as "to State finances at this particular time." This is all the satisfaction which, so far, the j people have been able to obtain. We are now where the New Yorkers were in the first steps of the Tammany war. The , charges are made, and the Ring pass them by without an attempt at explanation. But they will be forced to speak. Their nefari? ous scheming will be laid bare. And when an onward movement ls made, it will be ap? proved of, and sustained, by every honest | man in tbs land. The Radical Repvdlatoia. J [From the Mew York Tribune ] " THE CHARLESTON NEWS ls not good authori? ty tor any honest statement of the action of the colored members of the South Carolina Legis? lature ; hence, when lt says that these mem? bers have agreed In caucus to make no appro? priation for the payment of the State debt, and to repudiate the old and new debt, we may be permitted to doubt its trustworthiness. It is tme that the finances oi South Carolina are in desperate condition, and that no ade? quate explanation has ever been made of the contemplated issue of $20,040,000 new State bonds; but (lew people will believe that any considerable number of the members of the South Carolina Legislature, colored or other? wise, seriously contemplate a wholesale repu? diation like that reierred to by TUR NEWS. The proceeding looks much like a systematic attempt to 'bear' South Carolina securities." -The New York Tribune sees tit to doubt the accuracy of the report In thia paper of | the determination of the recent -Radical caucus to repudiate the State debt, but finds no better reason for its general denial than its assumption that THE NEWS, being of op? posite political opinions, does not share the confidence of the colored members of the Legislature, and therefore cannot be ac? cepted as good authority os to their move? ments. We have only to say tbat the report of the action of the caucus, which was ob? tained in the first place from a perfectly trustworthy source, bas been exactly con? firmed since its publication, in a conversa? tion with a representative of THE NEWS, by State Senator W. Beverly Nash, who must be admitted to be a leader or the colored members, as well on the subject of State finances as in all the other matters of policy that engage and bewilder their acute intel? lects. If the Tribune desires any further confirmation, however, of the plans and in? tentions of the colored "majority of more "than thirty thousand," who unhappily con? trol this State, it may be found in the fol? lowing significant admission made by the Columbia Union of the 14th : "As far as oar observation extends, we are ' led to believe that If this question was put to a vote to-day, In this State, as to which class ol bonds should be repudiated, there would be a majority of more than thirty thousand in favor of repudiating all bonds Issued for debts created while nearly 400,000 ot our citizens were In bondage.", A Friendly Warning. [Prom the New York Tribune.] For months, the developments of rascality in the management of the reconstructed gov? ernments of several Southern States have been growing more and more conclusive. No Intel? ligent man longer doubts that those govern? ments have been flagrantly expensive and cor? rupt-that they have increased taxation, in? curred debt, and Issued bonds, lo an enormous extent. The facts are In part concealed or obscured, bul cannot long remain so; eoough ls already known to justify the very gravest apprehensions. In the two Carolinas, especial? ly, the robberies appear to have been quite as gigantic, when the relative wealth of the re spective communities 1B considered, as in this city. Yet men whom we have esteemed honest talk as though all exposure and repre? hension of these vlllanles should be left to Democratic journals-that we ought to ignore, or befog, or belittle them. They represent j such exposure as calculated to damage the Re? publican party generally; we hold that, even if this be so, that party will be far worse dam? aged by seeking to cover up those Iniquities, and thus making them, to some extent, Its own. Let it promptly and fearlessly expose and denounce the criminals, if it would vlndi- j cate itself from all complicity In their crimes. Men and brethren! there ls to be a general overhauling of pretensions, a sweeping out of | dark corners, a dragging to light of hidden niqulties, the comlawg winter. // lhere be hose who dread such an ordeal, they may wise? ly put an osean between them and the scene of \ their misdoings without further delay. ?durational.
