Possibly, after ? while, the club may think of changing Its name. t:-Washington advices stace that there ls a I very decided difference of opinion among j Southern Republicans la regard to the pro? priety of pushing Senator Sumner's civil tights bill at the present time. With such conflicting opinions lt is extremely doubtful | whether the civil rights bill becomes a law this session. -Among the ''remarkable events" of 1871 Will be recorded the production ol the big? gest gan ever manufactured In England. It ls called the Woolwich Infant, and throws 1 seven hundred pounds at a single discharge, and when we consider that this is thrown in one mass, instead of being distributed among twenty balts, we may form some notion of the | effects obtained. -When the German indemnity ls paid, France will, have tbe . largest national debt of any country In the world, amounting In round numbers to $4,600,000,000, or more than double the present amount or the public debt of the United States. An Idea of this unprecedented national burden may be formed when we state that it represents a som equal tn ono r??i and twenty-five dollars per bead of the entire population of France. -The humor of the late James Fisk, Jr., of | ? -which so much; has been recently said, ls il? lustrated in bis reply to a body of his felic w dtlzens of Brattle boro', who wished him to assist In putting a new fence about the very graveyard in which Fisk was last week buried. He said to the astounded applicants: "No; not a cent. You don't need a fence there. Those that are in are in no danger of breaking - ?pt; and those that are out surely have no de? sire to break in." -A New York letter of the 16th Instant says: j "The indifference with which the presence of the am all-pox among us has been viewed by the community at large, will probably be. disturb? ed by the announcement to-day that the pesti -, lenee is steadily on the increase. Since noon Saterday there have- been-eighteen new cases d three deathfi. the physicians, acting under the Instructions of the Board ot Health, continue to vaccinate all applicants gratis. During the past week between seven thousand ] and,eight' thousand persons were thus at tendj?' r' ' .; ' . . ' -The proposed Information bureau which | the Hie Insurance companies talk of organiz? ing is expected to prove a very effectual safe- ] guard against fraudulent misrepresentations J on the part of would-be iosureis. The plan is fox tbe companies to mutually Inform each Other.of all rejected applications for life in-1 sotanee, with the'cause of rejection in each case. As it is now, considerable losses result from applicants rejected by the medical exam- j In ers of one company as physically unsound, succeeding in getting insured in some other company not so well informed of the reasons j for rejection. -Dally bulletins are now received^from "Camp Aleitl?," as the bold buffalo raiders Tiave namfd their rendezvous on the plains | near North Platte. The gratifying Intelligence of the success of Alexis's first hostile mani? festation has already been announced In THE ?t?WBy and was also forwarded by cable to the Duke's anxious relatives in Sc. Petersiurg. More accurate details of the sanguinary con best are now at hand. Thc Duke, Bufi'ilo Biil and General Custer-all three-of a size and .armed ? eap-?-pi? ior the fray-dashed off on tneir proud and milk-white steeds. Alexis's costume consisted of a gray Jacket and panta? loons, trimmed with green, the buttons Dearing the Imperial court-of arm?, an Australian turban, a pair of monogram alligator boots, a Russian knife and a Smith I * Wesson revolver. Soon the herd of I -accommodating bison was reached. The gen? erous animals, peroeivlng the royal approach, remained passive and calmly awaited their] Me/ Custer and Mr. Bill soon found all they ceuld attend to, and the Duke was Ielt alone j with a bellowing buffalo of Brobdlgnagian j aspect. Upon him did Alexis gracefully swoop, with pistol balls twain, to his utter extermina-1 tionv Then the young hunter alighted, pulled . out uta dagger, removed ihe tall of his pros-1 trate foe, and bore It to camp in triumph amid j the enl?glnm8 of the assembled multitude. Several others, including Count OJzonfieff, also secured trophies, and the very successful Initiation'of the campaign was celebrated In the evening by a grand war dance, in which ? those talented artists, Signor Spotted Tail and | Herr Two Strike, took part. -Accounts of the sale of the Empress Eu? genie's Jewels are at hand, and very "bril? liant" reading they make. A part of the col-1 lection was hu ely purchased by the Messrs. Emanuel, of Bond street, London, lor ?60,000. A foll recounts! of ali the precious gems would be overpowering, and a brief mention pf some of the - more remarkable specimens will he sufficient to cause many a fair reader to "die with envy." There are bracelets; of ruby and sapphire and diamond, jewelled watches, diamond brooches, sapphire and dia? mond necklaces, an aigrette of diamonds, emeralds and pearly diamond head orna? ments, pearl necklaces, diamond frlDge pen? dants, diamond anchors-and so on ad in? finitum. One necklace of black pearls, of large size, took years to collect, for the pearII match each other perfectly. One of the Jewels bas It3_especlal legend attached. After the war between France and Austria in 1859, the Em? press had a head ornament of diamonds worked into the form of an olive wreath, with Mack beads introduced in lt at regular *Jervals. The olive branch told its own et*? of peace, and the sombre beads within the glitter? ing brilliants were refiew?*were meant to ex? press Borrow fortbj^oldlers who had fall??. Some nf these^***T8 were the presents of magr?ficent^POtentales ?Q years gone by. This Usj/'nowever, does not by any means cou*rwe the whole of the Empress's Jewels. jrTie Empress of Russia is understood to have purchased the celebrated suit of rubles, and lt is known that there are many articles of enormous value still at Chlselhursr, which will be disposed o? when a purchaser can be found. _ The Financial Expedients of the Ring From Bad to Worse. Thc new scheme of financial "adj us t "ment" which is said to have received the approval of Governor Scott, and the details of which are given in our Columbia corres? pondence printed in another column, is a fitting climax to the system of organized robbery by which the Columbia Ring, with the assistance of avenal and besotted Legls ' lature, have saddled the State with an over ! whelming debt, and made South Carolina a by-word of mingled pity and reproach to all mankind. The rascally clique of which Governor Scott is the head are at last thor? oughly frightened at the appalling pro? portions of the obligations which tbeir frauds and mismanagement have piled up. They feel that their case is desperate, and they clutch at a desperate remedy. They know that they have dragged the State to the verge of bankruptcy, and they are ready, without a moment's compunction, to dishonor her good name os they have de? stroyed her credit. They care not a jot who suffers, orwbat infamous means may be employed, provided they can seem to succeed in wiping out ten or twelve mil? lions of the enormous public debt, the exist? ence of which, as things stand, they are un? willing to face and acknowledge, and yet utterly unable to deny or explain away. Bat the scheme on whic\i, just now, the members of the Ring seem to rely with so mach confidence will not avail to sa vo them. Concocted as it is in the Interest of a gang ot sleck-jobbera who have bought up the uncertain millions ol the securities of the State for a song, no wonder that its pro? visions have been framed in the most shameful disregard of the rights and just expectations of the honesruondholders. It is some comfort, however, to know, even from the meagre outlines of the scheme which have reached ns, that it is likely to prove as impracticable in execution as it was unjust and corrupt in conception. Probes and Tests. What good does probing do? Jim Fisk was probed; everybody who is shot is project, antr- \J?H. Jrv?.v?~ Au tSpETimCB u* many years in journalism, and the reading of many thousand newspapers and rnrny hundred coses of gun-shot, wounds, has not enabled us to discern the voiue of the j)robe as an instrument of research or relief. Occasionally some of the cloth? ing, carried along with the ball into the wound, is encountered by the probe and re? moved. As a rule, however, all foreign matters, except the ball, are driven ont by suppuration. The ball is moro frequently discovered under the skin by the Urger, and, cut oat. Sometimes it is detected by the probe, taken out by the forceps, or cut down upon and then removed. Very often a sac of cellular tissue is formed around the ball, and it remains in the body, doing no harm, except, perhaps, by pressure upon some nerve or artery. We by no means mean to cast discredit upon operative surgery. We seek informa? tion. The question ls whether probing upon the whole does good, and, if so, in what proportion of cases does it do good? On the ot'ber hand, we would be glad for some candid surgeon to tell OB how often the patient is injured, hts fever increased by the worry, annoyance, distress and disappoint? ment caused by probing, which results in nothing? Finally, it would be interesting to know why probing in a great many cases may not be dispensed with. As to chemical tests and the value of evidence by experts, it cannot be denied that the issue of the experiments in Mrs. Wharton's case bas gone far to produce in the public mind an absolute want of raith in analytical chemistry and all who dabble in it. In future cases of poisoning, juries j will hardly be persuaded so much as to lis? ten to the testimony of so-called chemical expert?/^lTT?ttoS?oiMi^ said that all the physicians who att^nd^'CRfnwU-gf?t. chum at the time of his death believed be was poisoned, while all those who never saw him witb one consent agree that he was not poisoned. Certain it is that before the re? butting evidence was adduced there seemed hardly a doubt of Mrs. Wharton's guilt; now her acquittal is a matter of course, un? less, indeed, some testimony not yet sus? pected may be brought forward. Chemistry is no longer in favor. Its professors are at a discount. But no right-thinking man will say the science is at fault. Ita methods in j certain cases have not been perfected, and I ita experts are misnamed. They are bun? glers who should be cast out of the profes? sion. Much benefit may accrue as well to medical jurisprudence ns to the cause of science itself if the effect of the Wharton trial be what it ought to be,and undoubtedly will be, namely, utter scepticism, and a bit? ter prejudice against chemistry, until preju? dice and scepticism are alike overwhelmed by the force of perfected science, which in its essence, ls, within limits, absolute truth. The L-gal-Tender Decision. The New York World devotes an editorial to a criticism of the legal-tender decision de? livered by Judge Strong. It characterizes it as one of the greatest affront3 and outrages ever perpetrated against the people of the United States, being, in fact, the declBlon of Prudent Grant, dictated by him when he packed the court for the purpose of overruling a former decision or that tribunal on the same question. The World thinks no terms can be too severe for a denunciation of the act, un* der mi ni nc as it does all constitutional^princi? ples, and subverting the fundamental Ideas of free government. It shows how the Presi? dent, disliking ihe former decision on the legal-tender question, determined to pack the Supreme Couxt-wllh Judges favorable to his views, and- thereupon appointed Justices Strong ?fft Bradley, thereby creating the ma? jority he des'red, and usurping the Judicial jxfwer. Thus the President has become the Supreme Court, and his appointees, Justices Strong and Bradley, deliver the opinions he wishes. The World then denounces the rea? soning of Judge Strong, calling it a "tissue of "chicaning sophistry," and exposing its falla? cies. According to the decision, a mau who owes a hundred dollars may justly discharge his debt by making a tender of the value of thirty dollars, and the World thinks the pay? ment of one dollar or one cent as equitable, logically. iftarrieo.

It ls warranted to contain neither Sugar of Lead, Sulphur or Nitrate of Sliver, lt does not soil tue clothes or scalp, is agreeably perfumed, and makes one or theo-at dressings for the Bair In use. It restores the color of the Hair "more per? fect and uniformly than any other preparation," and always doe9 so in from three to ten days, virtually feeding the rjots of the Hair with all the nourishing qualities necessary to its growth and healthy condition; lt restores the decayed and induces a new growth or the Hair more posi? tively than anything else. The application of this won iertul discovery also produces a pleasant and cooling effect on the scalp and gives the Hair a pleasing and elegant appearance.
