The salary of the office bas I heretofore been worth to the fortunate holder j something like eighty thousand dollars per j year. General Sigel is now asked by the ven-1 arable Peter Cooper, presideut of the Citizens' Association, to set a brilliant example of re form himself by reducing the fees of his office BO that his salary will come within reasonable Umita-say ten thousand dollars per year. Sigel can't see lt. -Last week's Imports of dry, goods at New York, at their ?bid cost, amounted to $5,735, 456, being the largest weekly total ever given I in the history of this trade. The long passa-1 gea of several steamers, brioglog a number ol cargoes together, is one reason of the enor mous bulk:. The largest-previous week, and I that ? solitary Instance or an excess of Ave f millions, was the third week in August of last jear, when the total was $5.285,140. To this total may be added $4.213,999 for general mer-1 cbandl&e, which gives an aggregate ol $9,954,* -453 at that pore. -The Levant Herald suggests that the Pope should be invited by the Sultan to take up bis I -residence'in Constantinople. It says: "In j Constantinople began the reign of imperial I Christianity. Constantinople was the chief I seat of Eastern Christianity as Borne was that I ol Western Christianity. For a time Con-1 atantlnople, Alexandria and the other cities ol ihe East played a higher part in the strifes of Christianity than Borne and the cities of the West, With Constantinople ls linked the his? tory of St. Athanasius, St. Chrysostom, the deeds of Iconoclasts and the most eventful years of the Eastern Church." -It appears that the City ol Kaoxviile, Tenn., ia built over an Immense cave. Recent? ly, in digging cisterns at the holels, the "bot? tom fell out," and what were Intended for cis? terns made excellent sewers. Similar results followed excavations on other premises. The other day a public cistern, designed to hold three thousand Ave hundred bar-els of water, had been completed, and seven feet of water pumped in. Within five minute-1 r.fter the depth of the water had been inea-ui,d, lt had all disappeared. Further investigation showed that p-irt of the bottom bad fallen In, and the water run off somewhere in the interior of the earib. j -Captain Silas Bent, who has a good name as a physical geographer, bas been explaining that lo reduce northern Europe to a frozen wil? derness, we have only to make a big enough catting in the Isthmus of Panama to send the surplus equatorial current of the Atlantic Into the Pacific, instead of having it diverted, as now, to the shores of Europe. England and . Germany and northern Europe would be re? doced to their natural eli mate-level-that, of j ; Labrador. The northern shore s of Europe are J warmed by the Gulf stream, which has its ori gin in the westward equatorial currents which -are deflected by the shores ol the Gulf and sent to the northeastward. Take away the barrier ' Of the Isthmus, and the warm water would go straight through to Asia. -A case of murder, which promises to be? come a cause celebre, and which ls as mysie rlous in its surroundings as the Nathan trage? dy, is agitating the citizens of Brooklyn, New York. The victim in ihe case was a profess jr j of music, well known in that city, a Mr. John B. Panormo, an Englishman, some thirty-five years of age. From the published facts it ap- I pears that Mr. Panormo, on Tuesday night last at about quarter past nine o'olock, lett the res? idence of a pupil, to whom he had been giving a lesson in mu-ic, on his wxy t> his boarding house. What followed alter his departure is as yet Involved IU mystery, but it ls known that at ?bout len o'clock, or shortly beiore thai hour, he entered a Myrtle averine car. In the vicinity of Fort Green place, bleeding profusely about the heal, and apparently In a semi-stupor. He paid his fare, and requested to be let out at Pineapple street, In which street be boarded, j He ls next heard of as having reached bis boarding-house. Upon being questioned he stated that he had been assaulted In the car by two ruffians, and robbed of his watch; but | this statement was evidently the result of his j mental confusion consequent upon the assault, which had been committed upon him previous to bis entering (he car, as ample testimony has ' been produced to prove that he was In this lamentable condition when he got upon the car in Myrtle avenue. An examination of the unfortunate man's condition showed that his skull had been split open by a terrible blow from some blunt Instrument. He died on the next day, leaving no clue to his assassins. That he was assaulted for the purpose of robbery seems very evident, since his watch has been stolen. Three notorious Jail birds have been arrested on suspicion of complicity in the fearful crime. The facts so far developed In the case go to prove the existence of an organized gang of highwaymen In that part of Brooklyn. Since New Year's Day there have been no les3 than Ave deadly assaults made upon pedestrians by robbers in this locality. The mysterious mur? der of Hr. Panormo has greatly alarmed the community, and many citizens residing near the ecene of the tragedy refuse to leave their houses after dark. The Young Men. Both the Winnsboro' News and the Colum bia Phoenix are exhorting the young men in J the State to prepare themselves for hard J and vigorous work in the campaign pre? ceding the fall elections. We have confi? dence in the yoong men. They planned the campaign in Charleston, and elected a respectable and trustworthy Municipal Gov? ernment. And they can do as much in other places. Nor is the success which al- j tends the efforts of the young men in oilier Slates, and which should crown their labors in So ata Carolina, the reaulfriM only.the ac? tive energies of youth. They wm because they h a ve fe wer prejudices than their seniors; because their views are wider and more liberal ; because they are hot bent on man aging things in the ways which answered well in the time of the Ark, but which are I as mach oat pf plac? now as cross-bows and I rush-strewn 'floors; because they do not in-1 sist on getting in a wagon wben the express J train is passing their very doors; because, with all the patriotism and devotion of their sires and grandsires, they are hampered by no damaging past, and have little to an learn. Far be it from as to suggest a word of depreciation. of the great and good men who directed the councils of Old South Carolina. They did noble service, and, in I like circumstances, would be entitled to the leadiDg place in tbe public battle. But, as the Phoenix would have said, before its edi? torial management passed into new hands, ?JOld times are changed, old manners gone, A stranger fills the Stuart's throne." And the people, the young and the old, I cannot afford to be recusants. They ac- J knowledge what is. And they must go farther. They are required to use weapons adapted to the material out of whiofAte to bo fashioned a new and creditable govern ment for So nth Carolina. Tba venerable I fathers of the Republic cannot, with stiffen? ed sinews and flaccid muscles, wield the weapons ef to-day. They have done their part, and mast be content to remain en shrined in the public temple-always hon-1 ored and revered, but not expected to take part in the homely contests of every? day life. Upon the Shoulders of the young the burden of responsibility rests. They must initiate systems as well os carry them into effect. Had they taken tbe helm four years ago, the State had now been nearer port. They did not do it because it was desired to give the old pilots another trial. Now is the opportunity of the glow? ing, generous and unselfish youth of South Carolina. They have a right to be heard in connell, as they must do the work in the field. Let lt not be said that, In South' Caro? lina, any man who holds honest convictions fears lo express them because they are new and strange.! Sj -The yoong men of South Carolina'can rescue South Carolina from the depths into which she has fallen. Even ibis coming] October they may drag the chariot from the j along?, and, two years hence, they shall cleanse the mir? from the wheels, abd purge away the last foul smirches of dishonesty I and vice. The Election Laws. We hope that the House of Representa? tives will reject the amendment proposed by their Committee of Privileges and Elections to the Senate bill to amend the Election Law of March 1,1870. .' -The present ?lection Law is admitted to be a shame and reproach to the South Carolina Radicals. Their leaders either condemn it boldly, or only d?fend it as a party necessity. Under 'that law, the Gov? ernor of the State appoints the Commis? sioners of Elections, who, in tnrn, appoint the Managers. When the polls close, tbe ballots remain for three days la tbe custody of the Managers, who then moke their returns to the Commissioners, who, within ten days, jare required to make "such statements "thereof os the nature of tbe election sball "require." At Ihe elections of 1870, Gov? ernor Scott, himself a candidate for re-elec? tion, appointed his own r >iBans as Com? missioners. These put in as Managers their own friends and connections. Near relations of candidates for office, and the vary candidates themselves, obtain od in this way entire control of the ballot-boxes, and held them in their keeping until the returns could be cooked to the desired complexion. It is not denied that gigantic frauds were practiced. Marked ballots which were put into the boxes could not be found when the ballots were finally exposed. Names were stricken ont, ami tbe names of other candi? dates were written in their stead. The pub? lic have not forgotten tbe sickening story of cheating and bare-faced fraud. Wives voted for their husbands. Boys of fifteen voted in every County In the State. The knavishneas at tbe polls was only exceeded by the gross corruption io making up the count So glaring were the infringements of law that three of the Radical Commis? sioners of Elections were tried in the United States Court, and convicted of tampering with the ballots. And these men, be it un? derstood, were not half BO guilty as scores who went scot-free. All thia wrong-doing, all Ibis rascality, was for the Bole benefit of the villanouB Radical crew who lord it over theStoi?. Tbe more moderate members of the Radi? cal Party were outspoken in their denuncia? tion of the Election Law, after the Elections ?were over, and, for a wonder, they had sufficient firmness and consistency to cause to be introduced in the Senate, at the pres? ent session, a bill which remedies the gross? est defects, of. the Act o? March 1, 1870. This bill provides that at least ODO of the three Commissioners of . Elections for each county, and at least one of the three Mana? gers for each precinct, shall be chosen from each.political party; also, that, the bailot boxes shall be publicly opened and inspected, and locked jost before the opening of the polls; also, that the counting of the ballots shall take place in public, and shall begin Immediately after the closing of the polls, and that the result shall be at once declared. These are the main changes effected by the Senate bill which has passed that body, and is now before tho House. But the ] House Committee of Privileges and Elections will not accept the bill as it stands. They re? commend .that the section which requires that the Commissioners and Managers of Elections be chosen from each political party be stricken out. That is, they object to the clause which enables the minority to wateh tte majority. They are not willing that one Conservative should sit by the side of two Radicals. And why 7 Is it hoped that united boards of Radical Commission? ers and Managers will fled means to defraud the public in spite of an inspection of the ballot-boxes, and of an immediate count ? Surely, if it be intended to conduct the elec? tions fairly, there can be no sound objection to giving the minority a representation upon the different boards. It may be said that it will be bard to decide which are the par? ties entitled lo representation, but there is no force in the objection. For a decade to come, there will be only two political par? ties in South Carolina-the Radical and the Conservative, and if lhere were three politi? cal parties, organized and ready for action, all of them could have a voice in the con? duct or the elections. If the House mean fair-play, the bill will pass as it came from the Senate._ THE Blue Ridge Swindling Rill was killed in the Senate yesterday. Next I The Import Duty on Rice. The House of Representatives, on Mon? day, adopted the following joint resolution: "IPAereas, The Congress ot the United States, in plain violation of the doctrine "ihat 'there should be, either free trade, lo reier .ence to the products of all ihe world, or else ?an equality of protection,' seems to be about to remove the duty from rice, one of the etaple products Ol this State; and, whereas, tn the judgment of this'General Assembly., such a measure would be 'partial In character ?and disastrous in results;' be it, therefore, "Besolved, by the House of Representatives of the State or South Carolina, the Senate concurring, That the repeal of the tarin* on rice, -the culture pf which staple ls the princi? pal source of profit and support ol so large a portion of the laborers of this State, would be unwise, partial and disastrous. "Resolved, That our Senators are hereby instructed, and our<: Representatives to the Congress of tho Culted S lat ca ore hereby re? quested to use their Influence to secure the continuance of the protective duly on rice. "Resolved, That this General Assembly would not be understood, by this action, as endorsing the principle of a high tarin" lor protection. "Besolved, That.his Excellency the Govern? or ls hereby requested, immediately upon the adoption of these resolutions, to forward cer? tified copies thereof to hts Excellency the President ot the United States, tho President of the Senate and Speaker of the House ol Representatives, and to our Senators and Representatives to Congress, who are hereby requested to lay the same before-thai body." WE print in another column the prospec? tus of Colonel Thomas's new paper, the Columbia South Carolinian. Sound Criticism. [Prom the Colombia Union, Rad.j The General Appropriation Bill is now be? fore tho General Assembly, and we hope and trust that lt will be closely scrutinized before it is passed imo a law. As lt now stands, lt appropriates upwards of seven hundred thou? sand dollars, exclusive of Interest on the pub? lic debt. We hope the Legislature will not forget the fact that, for the past three or four years, the appropriations have exceeded the revenue from taxes several hundred thousand dollars, and, lo make up this deficiency, the State has been compelled to go Into the mar? ket to borrow money ut ruinous rates of in? terest, heavy commissions, with other con? comitan i s consequent upon forced loans. It seem to us that this is the time to apply the much talked about measure of retrench? ment and reform. Let the General Assembly appropriate sufficient money to keep the State Government afloat, together with the amount necessary to carry Into successful operation our common school system, and let Improve? ments of public buildings or grounds, and other like features, walt a more prosperous condition of the State nuances. At least two hundred thousand dollars can be struck oil the present bill, and tho State Buffer no detri? ment whatever. So Vient. Ito RENT7~T?YITLAI?\??^^ A choice neighborhood.
