In 1863 the shipment was only a little more than a million pounds, which had risen to about six millions In 1866.

The dlarhona flelds-Were occupied by'diggers of all nations, missionaries and natives. A free State, with a president, had been formed, tatt the< British authorities aiam having MUM a|Ag?emeat with a r.atlvw chief to "protect." his rights, the result of which is that British sovereignty and virtual possession are extend? ed over the country. -The great diamond, welghlngtone hundred and fifty-four carats, which has be-erifound at the Cape incT Is now'OD ita way to'England, ls already furnished with its legend. It Is said to haye been found in the wall of ene of the nal I ve, huts, where a poor Irish adventurer had received hospitality for the night, and that being surprised by the light shining amid tberdarkness, .he, apon examination, found lt to proceed from a clump of the earth of which the wall was built. Of course the clump was soon detached by the visitor, and this Koh-i noor with many other smaller diamonds found within.' s ? '? ? ' -The inhabitants ot Alsace and Lorraine refuse to become Germanized in feeling, and J although they are forced to submit to German :'ile; they ornit no occasion for manifesting to theft'r?l?rsth?lr' dislike of th? new order of things. Frequent murders of German soldiers take .place, and when these occur the whole population assist in concealing the perpetra? tors from the reach of law. A more signifi? cant evidence of the state of popular feeling is given by a correspondent of the St. Louis Re? publican, who, ander date of December nth, writes from Berlin that at that time there was ?arpenter work to the value of 100,000 t hale rs to be done for the military department In j Metz, and that In that city of 54,000 inhabi? tants, there'was not a single man to be found who would undertake to do even the smallest part of lt at any price. -Plymouth Church, in Brooklyn, New York, | had its annual sale of pews the other night. *TSB first seat In the synagogue" fell to Henry ' C. Bo wen," who- formerly ear. at" the receipt of j cue toms In Brooklyn, and now owns the In? dependent and Brooklyn Union. He paid a premium or three hundred and thirty-five dol? lars for the privilege. A Brooklyn buaioeeB man got the next best choice, for which he also paid handsomely, but somehow the bid? ding was not as lively as us nal, and the net result to the church treasury fell twenty-five percent, below what it did last year. The: .ale was, however, a success. No one ac? counts for the reason ot the decline in prices, and the want of spirit In the bidding. Some people, however, Insist that Beecher's theolo? gy is looser than lt used to be, and this may have something to do with lt. -The late James Fisk's letters to Josephine Mansfield, which were need against the former in the Stokes sait, are published. They con? tain nothing of public importance, and make .no revelstlona, as was expected, in regard to Fisk's relations wjth the Bing, or in Wall ftrtjet'o'pefatl?ns. They show Fisk's charac? teristic good nature, as well as weakness, and how completely he was, for a time, under the dominion of ? designing woman, who m he did everything to please and enrich. Moat of the love letters mention enclosures of checks or money, and are full of protestations of affection. They Indicate that Fisk quarrelled . with Hiss Macsfield because Bhe gave prefer? ence lo Stokes. The letters were delivered by Miss Mansfield into the hands of Stokes, who used them thereafter with great effect in his suits against Fisk. -Fisk never laeked either wit to help him out of a scrape or a scrape to exercise his wit upon. A characteristic story ls told of his reply to an old woman who had bought o? the elder F:sk a handkerchief worth ninepence in New England currency, and who1 'complained to Mr. ?isk, Jr., that h? father had cheated her. Mr. Fisk considered the'case maturely, and gave a deoislon based on a priori princi? ple. "No!" skid'he, "the old man wouldn't have told a Ile for ninepence;" and then, as If this assertion needed some qualification, he added, "'though he would have told eight of them for a dollar !" _ The Radical War In Columbia. Day by day ^he breach between the more decent Radicals In the General Assembly and the corrupt Ring of which Governor Scott is the centrai figure, is becoming wider ! and deeper. So noisome have our' State officials become in the sight of all honest men of whatever party, in the North and in the South alike, that the unsavory scandals of Bowen's speech (of which a faint out? line is given in our Columbia letter) were scarcely needed to convince the country of the utter unworthiness bf oar present Ex? ecutive. Bat the war on the Bing, prompt? ed by whatever motives and waged with whatever weapons it may be, is likely to go on vigorously enough; and. if it should re? sult in the accomplishment of a single meas? ure of reform, or the meting out of justice to bat one of the knaves who have so long and so boldly been plundering the State, oar people will.hardly, io their present strait, be fastidi?os as to the agencies by. which so de? sirable a consummation is to be reached. Beecher on Flak. We have read with very great interest the graphic delineation of the character of tbe late James Fisk, Jr., and his confederates, Jay Gould and Judge Barnard, lately pro? duced in the New York Tribune. It de? scribes the firBt especially as a sensual, cun? ning, wicked; base, se?tish, unscrupulous' brutal, ', indecent, ' shameless thief and de? bauchee-a man who succeeded in amassing wealth and power by fraud and wrong, and made a boast of it. And we wondered how it was that a great community endured the domination in business and the Intrusion in society of a beastly tyrant and remorseless robber like this. Bat we wonder no longer when we read the following : [Extracts from a Sermon by Rev. Henry Ward .',' Beecher on the Tammany Frauds.] "Those, eighteen, opon whom the tower In Si? loam fell, and stew them, think ye that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in J?rusalem: I tell you, nat ; bot, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish." "Think ye that those six or seven on whom the New York Times has fallen, are sinners above all that dwell In New York ' Nay. I say to every mah that smuggles goods; to every maa that sells on lalse invoices; .to everyman that fashions things deceitfully; to every man that carries on business which he Is afraid to have thc light of God's eye rf st upon; to every man who swears falsely In re? gard to his affairs, and gives in a false account of his Income; to every man who hides, his prosperity to get rid of paying his lawful and just taxes-I. say to every Buch man, you are as guilty as these detected villains. Ah ! if all the men who have been guilty of fraud in New York were to have a tower fall on ihem; 'lhere would be funerals for fifty years to come!" . . * *? ? * ? * # "The criminals are only mirrors that you may see yourself in. Look at them and see what you are when you are- dishonest . Look, at them and see what you are when you .swindle your neighbor's store.' That ls all they have done. Look at them and aee what you are when yon cheat at the customhouse. That ls all they have done. Look at them and see what you are when you swear falsely in regard to taxation. That ls all they have .done. What have they done? Stolen ? So have you. Lied ? So have you. Been false to their oaths ? So have you. Men might have necklaces of beads almost uncountable representing their wrong deeds, and they i would not all be represented. One string I about their neck could not carry them all. It Ls notorious, flagrant laxity of morals in bust I ness, that breeds these things." f . ? ? ? ? . ? ? "Neither ought we to be surprised, it seems to me, when we consider what has been the conduct of political affairs among men, what has been the abuse of trust, what has been the judgment of the public about right and wrong in regard to public affairs, and what are the Ideas into which the young are educated. What is politics ? It is supposed to be a game, and at that a game of cunning; a gambler's game; a game of carde; a game of loaded dice; a game In this respect, that the lower Instincts, the baser faculties, largely predom? inate la the conduct of public affairs. It has come to be believed that shrewdness lu public life must be winked at; that you cannot pull ap the tares without pulling up the wheat also." *#.**..* "And so men are robbing the community all the way through. They organize a system ol spoils, by a majority here and lhere; and they are filled full of frauds. And by and by when a man a little more comprehensive, and organized a little more skilfully, carries off the very gates of the Treasury, as did Samson the gateB of Gaza, on his back, we atone for our misdeeds by crying out, 'Thief! tblef! thief! thief !' As if that man were more a thief than you are ! As if that man stole, and you did not steal I As if he connived at steal? ing, and you did not connive at stealing !" I * ? ?... 0 s * . . * . "The old. carcass ?lies decaying ia the sun. It ls covered all over with vermin. Go to-day andfcleanse it, removing every maggot. Take them all away, and. leave it clean. Go back again to-morrow, and there will be as many more. The carrion corruption ts there which breeds vermin. Though every one of these men, as some Ill-advised persons have sug? gested, where hung to. a lamp-post before hlB own door, as an example; or, though they were convicted, and were obliged to disgorge, and Sing Sing were engorged, what then * The same conscience remaining, and the same facilities for fraud remaining, would you be any better off ?" We thank God that when the Republican party proposed, in its stupendous states? manship, to punish South Carolina by reduc? ing her people to the same level of official corruption, (they could not pollute our social morals,) they were obliged, first to manufacture a new people from ignorant, helpless negro slaves, and then import the rascals to delude, rob and betray lb.em. ^a^THB BBLA1?VB3 AND FRIENDS I of Mr. and Mrs. T.
