Address RIORDAN. DAWSON A CO.. *?? TSQ. 149 East Bay. Charleston. S.O. FRIDAY, JANUARY 19, 1872. NEWS OF TBE DAT. -Gold yesterday at New York closed dull at Si to 9.. Sj -The New York cotton market closed Arm; uplands 21 ?c.; eales 7386 bales. -At Liverpool cotton closed quiet and steady; uplands lOJd.; Eales 12,000 bales. -Published statistics show that ninety thousand emigrants left Germany last year, nearly all going to the United States. -The corporation of London discovered an error of ?20 in their accounts. A professional accountant was called in and fixed the thing right. His charge waa ?482. -A special dispatch to the Woild saya: "It is reported that the Mordaunt divorce case will soon be reopened, with the Prince of Wales as co-respondent. Another divorce I case has been filed, on the trial of which the Duke of Edinburgh will appear as co-respon? dent." -The paper ls to the people what a sign? board is to the traveller. The paper tells who ls In business and where to trade, and the signboard tells the name of the place and . direction. Then, if you want people to buy of you, tell them through the paper where you stay and what you bare. -California has been literally deluged with rain,-the fall at certain points exceeding four feet. When the Immense body of snow melts In the spring lt seems more than probable that the country east of the mountains will be swept by freshets, and this especially as to the Valley of the Missouri. No large basins or marsh grounds exist In lhat region as reser? voirs for surplus waters. The whole mass drains away at once, with nothing to retain or obstruct it Hence it ls always either a flood or a drought over all the great plains. -Illusti alive ot the ops and downs of this life in general, and politics in particular, Thur? low'Weed tells how some New Yorkers raised a fund to defeat Fillmore in 1856, which was given to him for '-judicious distribution." He placed ten thousand dollars in bank to the credit of bis partner, to be drawn out as lt was needed. A few days after, the latter dropped dead in the street The bank paid over the money, in due process ol Jaw, lo the widow. A year or two passed, and Mr. Fill? more met and married the .widow-and the ten thousand dollars. -Boston claims to have the respectable wing of the woman's rights party, violently opposed lo Woodhullism, and it ls, therefore, with some surprise that we find lu the papers ofthat city a report of a recent discussion In "Boffin's Bower," a reading-room,for young workingwomen, on the subject of "free love." No matter how strong the opposition againet that doctrine was among the debaters, the fact il self that there was a discussion among a mixed audience of young men and women, married and unmarried, on the claim of Mrs. Victoria Woodhull to change her love every day is of itself a sign of demoralization. Fe? male modesty will not long survive such or? deals. Miss Jennie Collins, the presiding vir? gin of the Bower, thought that "In time the world might be good enough for free love," but In the present Bl ate of society lt would destroy all sanctity of the marriage relation. -A Washington letter, of Tuesday, says : "The opposition to the civil service retorm, as Inaugurated by the administration, is growing stronger every day, as ia shown by the out? givings of senators and members. Senators Chandler and Carpenter will probably address the Senate this week in denunciation of the new civil service rules, and will probably be followed by others on the Republican side. A discussion which arose in the House this after? noon indicated the opposition of several Re? publican members, especially Dawes and But? ler, to the so-called reform. The former de? clared that the civil service would be improv . ed if the President made all appointments on his own responsibility, and not on the recom? mendations of members of Congress, while the latter took tneopposite view, and maintained that he believed he was Just as good a judge as to who was suitable among his constituents for public office as any three or f jur 'broken down schoolmasters.' This reference to the civil service board provoked no little merri? ment The Budden end to the dispensation of patronage has, no doubt, prompted this very general opposition, while some of the party managers fear that lt persisted In the new re? form will seriously darmge political prospects instead of promoting them, a3 was expected, In the impending Presidential campaign. -The Democratic Stat? central committee of Missouri has Issued an address to the De? mocracy ofthat State In reference to the cam? paign of 1872. It may be denominated in brief i as an eloquent plea for the doctrine of "pas siviBm." The address first reviews the course pursued by the committee in 1870 in abstain- j lng from active participation in the State cam- j paign. This course, though unauthorized by the precise terms of the trust confided to the committee's care, was Justified by the popular demand among the Democratic masses, and by the results, which were-as all will re? member-a Republican schism, the triumph of the liberal faction and Democratic principles, the re-enfranchlBement ol many thousand citizen?, and the inauguration of "many reforms. The Democrats ot Missouri, the a?or?sa continues, have lound nothing to lament as yet lo the events which followed the "spontaneous and Infor? mal league'' between themselves and the Libe? ral Reputiican minority. One has been the readjustment of the party to the altered na? tional constitution, and the surrender of ob? solete and vanquished dogmas. From this the committee argued by analogy that the like beneficial results would flow from an absten? tion ol the national Democracy from the Presi? dential campaign. The evils lo be uprooted the martial-law abuse, the frauds, thc incom? petency, the tyranny-are certainly analo? gous; and the committee urges the prompt ap? plication of the Missouri remedy to the Buffer? ing body politic. t. -The friends of "home nile" for Ireland have "carried the war lalo Africa." That is, j they have very sensibly transferred the agi? tation for home rule from the green isle to England, and are holdlog meetings there to complain of and demand redress for tho wrongs committed against Erin. The ad? vantages ol this course of action are two-fold In the first place, no Irishman needs to be told of the wrongs of his native land. It is the first lesson he learns. Englishmen, how? ever, can be told something many ol them do not know of the haish laws which oppress Irishmen, and the knowledge of lt, will not increase their reverence for the government which, Indirectly at least, produces misery and social trouble, and famine and crime in Ireland. In the next place, there is more freedom of speech on English soil than Is allowed the Irishman at home. At the public meeling of | Irishmen recently held in Liverpool in favor ol ..home rule," sentiments were expressed which in Ireland would have led to the arrest of the speakers and the dispersion of the as? semblage which applauded them by the police. The most practical relief which has come to Ireland, however, for many years, is the re? cent division of the estates of the Marquis of | Waterford, small portions of which were sold at auction-from thirty to fifty years'purchase. This is sensible, and if followed out both In England and Ireland, would do much lor the amelioration ol the condition of the farming classes, for their poverty and neany all their troubles are due partly to the character of the land tenures and partly to grasping landlords. The Strength of the Parlies. That able exponent of Republican senti? ment, The Nation, make3 a calculation as to the comparative strength of the two parties in this country, founded, first, upon the re turns of the elections for the present House of Representatives, aDd, second, upon the result of the most recent State elections. Without advancing an opinion as to the ac? curacy of its figures, we abridge its state? ments, as a matter of information and inter? est to the political student According to Hie Nation, the electoral vote of the country, as represented by the last popular vote for members of the House of Representatives, is divided as follows, the number of electoral votes set opposite each State in the table being the number to which the State will be entitled under the new apportionment bill, which will probably become a law : STATES IS WHICH A DEMOCRATIC MAJORITY OF THE POPULAR VOTE WAS CAST FOR PRESENT REPRESENTATIVES. Electoral Vote. Electoral Vote. Alabama. 9 North Carolina_10 Delaware. 3 Oregon. 3 Georgia. ll Pennsylvania.. 28 Kentucky. 12 Tennessee.ll . Maryland .. M. 8 Texas. 8 Missouri. 15 Virginia.ll Nevada. 3 West Virginia. 5 New Hampshire... 4 - New York. 31 Total.175 STATES IN' WHICH A REPUBLICAN MAJORITY OF , THE POPULAR VOTE WAS CAST FOR PRESENT REPRESENTATIVES.

Mississippi. 8 Nebra-ku. 3 New Jersey. 9 Ohio.22 Rhode Island. 4 South Carolina.... 7 Vermont. 4 Wisconsin.10 Total .182 175 Republican imj'ty, 7 It will be seen that could these figures bo taken as trustworthy, the Republican candi? date would, out of tho whole number of the three hundred and fifty seven electoral vote3, receive a majority of only seven. Bat if we suppose that either South Carolina, Arkan? sas, Connecticut, Louisiana, New Hamp? shire or California will cast its vote against the candidate of the Republican party, his opponent would have a clear mujority. Under the old. apportionment, the above table would show a Democratic majority of the electoral vote. Next, we have a comparative statement of the strength of the two parties, as indica? ted by the result of the last State elections, thus : STATES GIVING OEMOCRATIC MAJORITIES IN THE LAST STATE ELECTIONS. Electoral Vote. Alabama. 3 Arkansas. 6 Delaware. 3 Florida. 3 Georgia. ll Kentucky. 12 Maryland. 8 M16BOUT?.. 15 Nevada. 3 New Hampshire... 4 STATES GIVLVO REPUBLICAN MAJORITIES IN THE LAST STATE ELECTIONS.

But The Nation argues that several States put down as Republican can by no means be relied upon to cast a Republican electoral vote in 1872. Among such States are New York, Pennsylvania, California, Connecticut, together with Louisiana, South Carolina, and, perhaps, Mississippi. Shauld New York, together with California, Connec? ticut and Louisiana, or South Carolina, pro? nounce against the Republican candidate, his opponent would have a majority of eleven electoral vote3. Should the four last-named States, together with Pennsylvania, prove Democratic, and New York Republican, the Democratic candidate would have a mujority of twelve electoral votes. Flies and Servunfs. Blessed are they that live in the zones where little fire is needed. In the clime which most American people inhabit; and with the peculiarly noisome variety of servants which prevails from Cape Cod to the Rio Grande, life has come to be a most unlovely thing. Fire is said to b9 a good servant but a bad master. True to tho letter. But when bari j servants are put to the making of worse fires, the case is too distressing to be fitly described in words. Fire at be3t we hold to be a nuisance. In a properly regulated planet there should be no need for other heat than that which comes from the solar ray. Rightly utilized, this heat would make all climates temperate, and in midwinter the caloric of the tropics, diffused in tubes, would moko even the poles to blossom, and put coal dealers to open shame. In the first place, luel cost3 heavily. Then chimneys smoke, stove pipes get dis? located, and grates drop down. But the maddening thing about lire is ihe kiudlinj The fobbing o? a poker in a grate is simply acvrrible. The ticuffiing to get cinders ont of a stove is a fearful tax on human pa? tience. The rattling of coals as they come out of a scuttle is something that imperils the immortal sou). Worst of all, these woes come all together in accursed combination, and at that precise time of the morning when the least noise is unendurable. No? body's temper is sweet at daybreak. And it is needless to tell U3 that the . ordinary human being who has to get up in the cold ar.d make fires for otber extraordinary beings, does so with any feeling but a fiendish feeling. The restraining fear of the lash might keep the fire-kindler within humane bounds. Naught else on this earth. He J jobs, and he rakes, and he scrapes, and he rattles, and be clatters, with a diabolical de? light. He has no idea of letting you sleep. Not he. He'd see you further first. And as the servant of the period is not going to im? prove, we may count with certainty on a rapid increase of these morning torments. It avails notting to suggest a return to the good old-fashioned wood fires. Possibly you might get the wood, but the well-trained servant who crept noiselessly in and out, leav? ing you not to be awakened, but to become dimly conscious of the crackling flames, and then sink back into the ineffable second nap -that servant is gone. He is dead as Hec? tor; extinct as the Dodo; we shall see him no more. Anthracite coal is an abomination in the eyes of gods and mea. But there are vari? eties of woods. All is not seasoned pine, hickory or oak. There is green wood-green pine, for instance. 'Tis a grievous vegeta? tion to the soul of man. Then there is the sour wood, that sends out a sour smoke that makes you weep os if you had lost your nearest friend, and carse as if you had drawn a blank in a lottery. Lastly, there is the sobby wood, one two-borse load of which dropped end foremost into the bottomless pit would extinguish its fires. No, there is no cure but in the economiza? tion of the solar beat as already suggested. But the day of that achievement is afar off. Meantime we are all, servants, masters and j mistresses, going to the bad. The temper of coming generations will be the psychical reflex of nitro-glycerine. Amiability In men will depart. Sweetness in women will ab Equatulate. The number of saints, present and prospective, will diminish. It is a con? solation to know that there is a place where lires need no kindling, and that is all the consolation there is in this matter. ijostcttcr's Bitters. j?r* THROW IN REINFORCEMENTS. - The Citadel of Life ls In a state of siege all through the year, but la never more closely in? vested than in mid-winter.
