SEWS OF THE DAT. -Gold closed yesterday at 8?a9. -In New York cotton closed firm at 20}c. for uplands, with sales of 3775 bale?. -The Liverpool market closed Btrong; up? lands 10 ; d ; sales 200,000 bale?. " -One of the bears in Central Park? New York, bas the ague. -The New York Mail says: "As men part their hair In the middle, ladles have taken to wearing their's parted on the side." -Tho definitive plan for the reconstruction ot the Vendome column bas been sent to the "Minister of the Interior, who will lay it before tbe Chamber at the beginnlog of the session. -Rochefort's occupation at Fort Bayard is that o? writing the history of Napoleon Third. The title of the boole will ol course bd. cutting? ly Insolent;'It ls; in fact, "HJjtolre du Bas Em? pire, on, les Aventures de Robert Macaire." -Adelfgrani from LondonXo the UORtlnen tai papers says the representatives of the Eng? lish Government abroad have received orders io'report'on the character and proceedings ol the Internationals.ln the coon tries where they are accredited. -In consequence of the attitude of tue Ital? ian sentinels stationed around the Vatican, Who th r? ate ne cl to fire on some persons in at? tendance on the Pope who had placed them? selves at one.of the windows of the Vatican, a coaler en ce has been held between Signor Venosta and Cardinal An tonel ll. This Incl* dent seems to interest very much those, per , ?ons who watch the course of Italian palillos at Rome. #* . -Tbe world oses 260,000,000 pounds of tea each year, and 713,000,000 poonda of coffee. China furnishes nearly all o? the tea and Brazil over one half of the coffee. Over 140,000 pounds of Java and 18,000 pounds of Mocha Is produced. The United Stales consumes near ly one-third of ail the coffee produced in the world and the' English are the greatest ter drinkers ont of China. The Germans rank nexflto tbe Americans as coffee drinkers. The Americana consume about s'x pounds o? coffee and one hundred and twenty-two pounds of beef per head/counting adults and infants, each year. This lpoks large, but then the Yankees never do anything by halves. -The Jewels belonging to tbe Apollo Gal? lery of the Louvre were concealed ?during the Commune IQ a ?mall room, carefully walled np, ou the second story or the building erected by Francois I, over the Salle Henri Hand the Salon des Sept'Chemin?es. The*work had been, so^kilfully executed that the insurgents, during i he ir two. months' occupation of the palace, sfust have passed before it a thousand time? without suspecting that this treasure of jewelry, ?ock?crystaL enamels, Ac, estimated at 50,000,000 francs, was so near them." The Credit of this success IS due to Count Clement de R's, conservator, and to the employees ot the museum,, who were several times on the 1)01111 of being shot for refusing to disclose the place of concealment, ' -Tue Washington correspondent of the Philadelphia Inquirer says that Secretary Fish ls determined that the administration shall pursue only a passive policy, and threatens to leave the Cabinet If the President allows any? thing lo 'be '.doueT walch; may lead to a war 11 with Spa!D. He has made ho'arrangements to | i remain through the winter, and ls temporari? ly _stopping with Secretary Robeson. He bad ^aadeeome el ayr of trying ter get a "house, but nSB inc ne, although he couid"^ have got several If he had really desired one. It ls not unlikely that affairs will come to a crisis next week, as - on the reassembling of Congress lt ls the In. tention of General Banks and others: to force the admin istraiion: to- take ground ina man? ner that will show Spain that toe United States ls a power not to be longer trifled with aa lt has been for over two years. In that event Mr. Fish will probably re: ire. -It has never been determined exactly hdw many persons perished in tte Chicago fire. The estimates have varied from two hundred to five hundred; but, a Chicago pa? per says, when lt ls remembered that the hot breath of the conflagration withered to ashes great cubes of building stone, and then blew the ashes out into the lake, it ls Badly probable that many human bodies suffered precisely the same fate. Over one hundred bndle?, or portions of bodies, have, .been recovered. 'Nearly ?1! of these have been identified, and | < the work of clearing'away the rubbish is jet a long way from completion. Now, through ? the exertions o? the Relief and Aid Society, the names of a host of others have been pro? mulgated as mis-lng since the Are. Of these, lt ls fair to presume that at least three-fourths must be added to the list of victims, making the number In all probability about four hun? dred. -The London Spectator bas the following relative to the ramlae lu Persia : "Mr. A. J. S. Adams,. travelling in Teheran about two months ago, says that-in the crowds who swarm in the barrack square to receive a dole of small diver from the Shah, hundreds, men and women, are literally stark naked, worri to the bone and coveted with sores."The people follow the visitor, howilng for bread; two men lie upon tbe ground quite dead, and a third ia laid upon one Bide of the bazaar, covered with a dirty pi?ce o? cotton. A naked woman lies In the agony of death, surrounded by a crowd of beings almost as badly off as herself. The next form is that of a woman, who scrapes from the ground a handful; of melon seed and filth, which she divides be? tween her two children. This ls one morn? ing's ride. There 1B no help for any of them, though the Shah has, as Mr. Murray testifies, bucket8ihl of jewels In. the private treasury, and the famine cannot end until July. " -The value of vaccination as a preventive of smallpox, though questioned by many, seems attested by statistics. When small pox waa raging as an epidemic ia London in 1863, observations were made by the physicians upon fifty thousand children belonging to national and parochial schools, workhouses, "Ac Some of the children had never been 'vaccinated; the great majority bad, in various wajs and degrees. Of every one thousand J children without any marks of vaccination, nine hundred and sixty had marks of small 11 ox; while of every one thousand children who had evidence of vaccination, only one hundred and seventy-eight had any trace of | the disease. In regard to the amount of vac? cination, it was found that, or children having ionr or more cicatrices, only 0.62 per ihousuud were scarred with small-pox. So the best vaccination proved thirty-fold more protective than the worst, and the worst was twenty seven times better than none at all. The study of fifteen thousand cases of small-pox at the London hospital shows that the unvac cinated died at the rate of thirty-seven per oent., and the vaccinated at the rate of only six and a half per cent.; the mortality among those with four scars being only 0.5!?, while that among those with only a Bingle scar was 7.37. A comparison of the statistics Indicates that a well vaccinated parson runs only one seventeenth the risk which ls taken by those who refuse to avail themselves of vaccina? tions.'* Profit anti Los-. The St. Louis BqmbUcan, the ablest ad? vocate of what i3 known as the passive policy, sums up the political balance sheet at the close of tho year, for the purpose of | ascertaining what are the most important facts and figures to be carried forward as the profit and loss to the Democracy for^ 1871. California and New * York, having forty electoral votes, have been lost, and New Hampshire and Texas have been gained, which States reduce the Democratic net loss to twenty-eight electors. The disastrous re? sult in New York is ascribed exclusively to the shameful disclosures in reference to the Tammany thieves, and those best informed are confident that the Empir? State needs but the opportunity to give overwhelming evidence of the tact that its repudiation ol Grant, Murphy and Conkling is as hearty and sincere as its condemnation of Tweed, Connolly and their colleagues in crime. The number of States in the present pos? session of the opponents of the national ad? ministration is Bixteen ; and they rank re? spectively, as follows, with reference to their population and consequent political influ? ence, according to the bill which has recent? ly passed the House providing for an ap? portionment of representatives to continue until the results of the cen ens ;of 1860 are announced; and which increases the number of members from 243 to 283* an increase of forty members, of which the Western States gain twenty-two, the Southern States thir? teen, the Middle States five, and New Eng? land loses and the Pacific coast gains o J e each: # States.

The entire number of electoral votes un ler the new apportionment is three hundred md fifty-seven, which necessitates the pos-. leesion of St least one hundred anofseventy line to the Democracy to enable them to >lace their candidate ia the White House; hat ls to say, the Democrats must make a slear.gain of forty-three electoral votes, in iddition to retaining all they now bold, to tarry the Presidential ?lection of 18721 And he St Louis Bepublican does not believe bat this can be done unless the Missouri >olicy meets with approval It regards the told of the Democracy upon Indiana, New Tersey, New Hampshire, Oregon and Nevada is. of the most precarious description. They lave thirty-three electoral votes, which ore ilasBed as "doubtful'' if passivism be re. ected. Altogether the St. LoniB Republican thinks bat the cb&nces pf Democratic success are. niserably small if its advice is not heeded. The City Debt. We have always held the opinion that a rigorous and practical City Council would be ible to devise means of arranging the mu licipal debt in a manner which would do no vrong to either bondholder or .taxpayer; ind we have confidence that the present ad nioistration, by mutual agreement, will pat he debt in a manageable and endurable ihape. Until, however, the financial plans >f the City Council are made known, we leem it proper to confine onr own action to .he publication and explanation of whatever natured views and opinions may be submit? ed to ns upon the subject With this pur? pose we have printed the letters of a corres? pondent, writing under the signature of Tax? payers, whose desire is to induce the City Council to forbear any further legislation in. 'elation to the debt until the courts have de sided whether it is a binding obligation. The point is also made that, if the debt be ralid, it can be enforced against the corpo? rators only by process of execution. IQ connection with this question, we take eave to remind our readers that proceedings lave been instituted to test at leaBt the power of Council to enforce the municipal lebt by taxation. The action to that end was taken, more than a year ago, under au? thority of a meeting of citizens held in the Market Hall. A motion for a temporary injunction was made before Justice Willard at Columbia, in the absence of any judge at that time in this circuit, which motion was refused, on the ground, as we are informed, that there was no canse Bhown for the tem? porary injunction-the parties having appa? rently acquiesced in the taxation of the debt Tor many years, and evidence of urgency not being given. Justice Willard did not under? take to prejudge the issue. The cause was remitted for trial by the Circuit Court of this County. No opportunity for trial has since occurred, from the pressure of criminal and pre-existing civil causes on the docket, and the parties, therefore, have but the prospect of a trial at the next ensuing term of court. The Cotton Tax-Important Notice. The Columbia Phoenix learns from a com? munication from Washington, addressed to John T. Sloan, Esq., that "the Secretary of | 'the Treasury has at lost modified his two 'year order, and extended the time to June '30, 1872. All cotton, tare and other claims 'that were shelved by that order will be act 'ed on and paid, if properly proved." Slanieb. MCKEWN-STEEDMAN.-On the mornlBg [of the 20th December. 1871.
