Address RIORDAN, DAWSON A CO.. No. 140 East Bay, Charleston. S.O. S3)* Q?)*fte?ton gie&g. MONDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1871. NEWS OE THE DAT. -Gold closed in New York, Saturday, at Halli. -In New York cotton cloBed quiet; uplands 18i cents; sales 2200 bales. -In Liverpool cotton was steady; uplands 9jd., Orleans 9jd.: sales 12,000 bales. -An American chess congrees will meet In Cleveland December 4. -The remains of McDevitt, the billard play? er, were lound yesterday under the ruins of the Chicago Tribune building. -It is said that the New Bedford merchants, who are rolling in wer Uh, are greatly amused at the projects suggested for their pecuniary relie: in consequence of the whaling disaster. -A Paterson (N. J.) builder has received an unlimited order from Chicago for portable cottages, to be built and forwarded as fast as possible. The sizes ordere' are 12 by 16 and 16 by 16 feet, In one room. -Notwithstanding the report that the Na? than house in Twenty-third street is haunted, Mr. John Morrissey has boldly bought lt, and, it is said, will open lt as a "clubhouse.'' In which event, visitors may be sure they'll see no ghost-not even a ghost ol a chance. -General Grant has found a warm eulogist and ally in the London Times, which, in its number of October 31, anticipates "with satis lactlon the ?lecl'on of General Grant to a second term of office." What does this mean ? It ls hardly possible that "The Thunderer" has fallen Into the delusion that that silly story concerning the matrimonial arrangements be? tween Master Fred, and Beatrice has any truth in it. And yet it looks as though the big blustering journal of London were trimming Ita sails to catch that breeze. -It appears that, after all, the new evi? dence expected to be produced in the resumed Tichborne trial has amounted to very little. Nearly all the sensational stories told in the London papers about new discoveries in the case are quite untrue. Arthur Orton has not been found; the sailor who was on the Bella with Roger Tichborne turns out to be a myth, and the trial must be fought out on the evi? dence already given, with the addition of a , little corroborative or contradictory testimony ? on each side. ] -The recent exposures by the New York dally press of the reckless management of many of the New York Institutions for sav? ings, beginning with the Third Avenue Sav? ings Bank, have now caused the suspension ol ' two more-the National Bowling Green and ' Guardian Savings Bank-which were com- ? polled to close their doors on saturday, it is i a significant lad that the presidents of t hese < banks-"Hank" Smith and "Boss" Tweed- j were the leaders respectively of tbe Republl- i can and Democratic sides of the Ring that ( lately controlled the destinies of New York. -New York ls thoroughly frightened. In- 1 stead of one expected welcome visitor-the ( Grand Duke-she has two unexpected and un- ( welcome ones-the cholera and emall-pox. We 1 have already noticed the arrival of the Ger- ( man steamship Franklin, with a cargo of choi? era, at quarantine in the harbor. Now comes the no less startling fact that small-pox is rap Idly extending its ravages in the city, and the World asserts that there are two hundred , thousand persons :n the community flt subjects for the disease, never having been vaccinate 1. This seems to be treated as a more serious Bitter by the New Yorkers than the advent of 1 cholera, as they comfort themselves wi.h the ! idea tbat the cholera ls not to be dreaded in ; the winter. Tbe expedience o? Russia in the t matter ol winter ravages ol this plague do not? j however, sustain thia idea. t -A translation of the Pope's allocution, de- , livered In tbe Secret Consistory on the 27th ( nit., is given In the London Times. The Holy Father reminds the brethren of the attempts ( so long and persistently directed against the ' Catholic Church, and declares tbat although - "almost swallowed up in the waves of that sea < ol tribulation," he refuses not to endure still i more, and to face death even with Joy, "if It i shall please the God ot mercy to accept him as ; a sacrifice." He then proceeds to appoint ( bishops to some of the Italian Sees, which have long been vacant, and to promise that the remainder shall be provided for in a very short time. At the same time, he emphatlcal- 1 ly rejects the gurantees offered him, and says ' that he makes use only ol the pontifical au- 1 thority which he has Inherited. The action of ' the antl-lntalliblllsts is strongly denounced by Plus IX, who laments the consequent danger j for both the church and civil society; and the , defenders of the Papal authority are propor- j tlonally praised, includlag not only the arch- , bishops and bishops, but also the great body of tbe clergy and laity. And then the alloca? tion comes to a close, with aa exhortation to pray without ceasing for those who hare "wandered," and for the destruction ol all the 'errors and calumnies" which now so trouble the talthful. -The Washington corresDondent of the ' Baltimore Sun writes: "The report that the Democratic leaders are In correspondence with regard to the propriety of abandoning a nomlnatien for President, with a view ot sup? porting a conservative Republican candidate in opposition to Grant, has not, on inquiry in New York and of members of the Democratic committee la Washington, assumed positive shape. That q-iite a number of Democrats here lavor such a course is openly admitted, wr.'le Senator Schurz and other Republican?, why are opposed to a continuation ol the present administration, declare that tbe cn'y hope ol success is found in that programme. How such a convention ls to be called, and who ls to call it, are questions, it ls stated, that must be left for the future to decide, as there ls time in which the Democrats of all flections can discuss lr. The national Demo? cratic executive committee, appointed by the last National Convention, will meet in Wash- 1 ington in January, earlier than usual, to de- 1 cide on the time and place cf holding the next convention. By that time the policy ol the Conservative Republicans and the extent of the co-operation of the Democratic party will be Hilly developed, and the committee can de? cide whether lt is the wisest course to issue a call, pure and simple, tor a meeting ol the Democracy again In national council.*' -The remaikable siorru, which last w?tk expended its lury over a large area of th? West, all of toe lakes and nearly the entire ] length of the Atlantic coast, has elicited com* j paratlvely little public attention, evidently for | the reason that it was not distinguished by any extraordinary loss of property or life. Many storms, indeed, ol less force and extent have fallen upon our coasts with far more ter? rible results. The mystery, however, if mys? tery it may be styled, finds a ready solution in the admiral system of storm signals which, on this occasion, literally headed the winds and furnished conspicuous testimony of its utility. Every section of the country threatened by the etona was duly warned of its approach, the effect cf which was to keep in port many vessels which would otherwise have been in? volved in It3 perils. The storm began far ; out on the Western plaine, and was of vast north and south extent, presenting a front of at least two thousand miles. But it | was headed and foreseen in Kansas and Ne? braska, and the swift messenger ran ahead of its mighty march to tell of its fierce coming. It occupied the whole space from the lakes to the Gulf, but this side ol the Alleghanies, SB If de? signing to foil science by strategy, played the trick cf dividing so as to strike further north than it had pretended. Caught at that, the north was forewarned and ready for it. How much of IOBS of lile and property was thus spared the country no man can say. The march o? this great storm, and Its complete anticipation at every point, shows how far from mere guess-work the predictions of the Signal Service are. and the great value of the telegraph as an aid to science in thus develop? ing into a practical fact what had hitherto been merely a theory concerning the procession ol | storms. _ Oar Own Thanksgiving. It will be noticed, by referring to the | amended proclamation in another column, that Mayor Wagener has chaDged tbe date fixed for a day of prayer and thanksgiving is this city from Friday, the 24th, to Thurs? day, the 23d io9t The inconvenience of | celebrating Friday, a day set apart by the ritual of many of the churches for fasting and contrition, as an occasion of general thanksgiving was commented upon in some of the pulpits yesterday, and the ground was :aken by Bishop Howe that the Episcopal Church could not consistently ob? serve the day in any other than the way pre? scribed by the rubric of the church. This view of the selection of a date haviDg pre? sented itself to bis Honor the Mayor, the substitution of Thursday for Friday has been made, and it is now hoped that all classes of | the community may feel permitted and im? pelled to unite in this pions and patriotic observance. A Blark Man's Plea. We call the attention ol the New York Tribune and the other leading Radical jour? nals of the North to the rude but striking comments of the only negro newspaper or-1 gan in South Carolina upon the recerjt dis? closures of the robberies of the rascally Ring which now controls the revenues and the credit of our State. Northern Republicans have of late shown a deal of sympathy with the few colored people who have suffered at the bands of the Kn-Elnx. Bot aere is a wroDg of gigantic proportions ffbich dwarfs the Ku-Kiux outrages oto insignificance, and which not only aringa ruin to blacks and whites alike in Bouth Carolina, but which inflicts heavy osses upon credulous investors io other Slates. Will not the Northern press, which lias so often before undertaken to interfere u our troubles, come to our assistance in )ur present strait, and, before the lately iwakened ardor for reform bas bad lime to :ool, help ns somehow to shake off the rule if a Ring compared with which Tammany tself was a benignant, unselfish and most :onbcientious institution ? A Censas of Soreheads. It is a very general result in races of all ?nds that there is but one successful con ?stant, and that per contra the rest of the :ompelitors must come in behind, and the ?ule holds Rood in politics as in natural phi osopby that no two bodies can occupy the tame place at the same time. These rather rite observations are provoked by a careful nvestigation as to the number of recent ipplications for official position under the lewly inaugurated city government. The official patronage of the City of Charleston :onsists of just forty-three positions, and for hese lhere have been just three hundred and >ixty-nine applications, leaving, of course, ?xactly three hundred and twenty-six dis? appointed aspirants. These applications re? lived the endorsements of five hundred ind ninety-seven gentlemen, of whom Dne hundred and twenty-nine bad the pleasure of finding their recommendations successful, but of whom four hundred and sixty-eight encountered au inevitable disap? pointment. If these statistics had been con lioued to include such minor appointments is policemen and street workers, the exhibit would be still more startling; but enough is already stated to shaw the hundreds of good men who did not get positions that they are in eminently respectable company, BO far, at ?east, as numbers are concerned. A .Vut for the Union to Crack. The Columbia Union asks THE NEWS "to ''come out and tell what it knows" about the redemption of any bonds by the State gov? ernment in 1671. -In bia letter to Senator Scott, dated Sep? tember 20, 1ST1. Governor Scott says: "During the present fiscal year the bonded "debt has been reduced by payment ofbonds "due July 1, 1871, amonnling to $250,000." But the State Constitution, article 9, section 12, read3 33 follows: "No raont-y s-uall be drawn rroia the treas? ury, but in pursuance of appropriations made by ?aw.-' Governor Scott admits that $250,000 of State bonds have been paid. No appropri? ation was made for their payment. We charge, therefore, that the payment was made in plaiu violation of the Constitution of the State. Perhaps the Union would like to explain this little transaction to the Legislature, and also to let the public know the names of the exceptionally lucky holders who succeeded in pelting payment dollar for dollar of bonds which must have been bought at a thump iag discount. Colonel J. P. Thomas. The Columbia Phoenix has been enlarged, and announces that Colonel J. P. Thomas will henceforth have entire charge ol its editorial columns. C'/ouri thomas will be tu welcome J and valuable accession to tbe ranks of the South Carolina brotherhood of the quill, and ! the rascally Ring in Coi ambla will be sure to meet In him a vigorous, untiring and every way formidable foe. A Black .alan's Opinion of the Xew City Government. Ex Senator and Rev. R. H. Cain in tbe last issue of the Missionary Record utters the following "Well Done!" regarding the course of the new city administration: "The new municipal government has begun I business lo a business like mauner. The pay? ing off the city employees and curtailment of j the expenditures indicates what may be done in the future. Every day exhibits the ability of the present Council, and Illustrates this great principle : that men who. are successful In their own business relations are well quali? fied to discbarge public trusts. We hail this new administration as a providential interposi? tion in behalf of our stricken people, and hope the greatest good may result to this commu? nity. We observe a reduction o? the price of | wages; but a promptness in payment, which amounts to an Increase of money, by virtue ol no twenty per cent, discount on every poor po? liceman's wages, and the orders issued In lieu of money. The street laborers may rejoice that Beven dollars per week will be sure, with no discounts nor shaves. We hope to see such financial arrangements by the committee as will cheer every heart." ijostcttcr's "Bitters. ARRKTHDE^CAT^WHEN A plant or a tree begins to decay lt mnst needa die It cannot be revitalized. But lt is not so with haman beings.
