NEWS OF THE DAT. -Gold closed yesterday at I0?ai0.?. -?In New York cotton closed quiet and weakj'uplands 2 li cents; Bales 2150 bales. -The Liverpool cotton market closed strong; uplands lljallfd, Orleans llall? d; sales 20,000 bales. -The Grand Duke Alexis and suite, accom? panied by a number of ladies and gentlemen, spent four hours enjoying the underground acelies and wonders of the Mammoth Cave, In Kentucky, Thursday, and then started . for Memphis. -General Henningsen, well known in former years as a military'coadjutor of Mazzini, Kos? suth, and other European. Republicans, and afterward aa a filibuster leader la Cuba and Central America, and as the author of several warks, 'Is engaged on a History of Filibus? ter ism. -It-was proposed ? few days ago, In New York, that, a statue of Horace Greeley be pur? chased and placed lui Printing House Square, similar to the one recently erected In hooor of Benjamin Franklin on that spot. The sub? scriptions have already reached $11,000, but $30,000 is wanted.' -Mario, the lamons tenor, now nearly sixty years old, was married lately in London at the Catholic Church, lu Marylebone, to Lady Harriet Beaufort, a member of an aristocratic English family. The new. Marchioness of Can? dia is .only twenty-two, years old. Marlo will take' up. his residence in Paris. His two daughters-who might be taken for their step mother's sisters-will reside wllh him. -Mr. Greeley says he- don't want a statue while he lives, and adds, "after he 1B dead an eye nt which he does net care to hasten, I even for the-sake of ? a statue-if any should see fit to pile granite or marble above his dust, I he can make no objection; but, so long as he shall remain tn the flesh, he ls content with I the stones thrown at him promiscuously, and would rather not have1 any of them ~pnsoiI dated into a Btatue." -The British Government has form illy an nouB.ced the occupation of the South African diamond fields on the 17th of last November. There ls now no doubt of this action by the British authorities-hitherto rumored only. I The change la said to have been highly- oo- I ceptable to the colonists among the diamond seekers, but the Dutch of the Transvaal Be public indignantly protested against this ad- j dttloaal evidence of British greed and disre? gard of the rights of other?. I _?.t an alleged interview, recently held at Chisel hurst, between the ex-Emperor Nitpo leon.and a "considerable personage," a strong.! supporter of the Empire, Louis Napoleon, af- I terming that If the French people would ac? cept the Due d'Aumale as Pre.-ldent he would give him his support, as he himself did not hope for a restoration, is reported to have uttered these remarkable words: "But re member well what I am about to say to you. I If within abc.months the Due d'Aumale be not President of the Republic, and li he should ' sot re-establish the regime of 1852, France will come to fetch me, and-she will And me." If thia means anything, it means that Napo? leon hopes to disgust France with Thiers, whom ne cordially hates, and in bringing on a condition of chaos, to avail himself of the con? sequent confusion of public affairs to step In and re-establish himself. -The great powder explosion which took plaee on the 18th ult., at the Greenwich marshes, near London, occurred in a cartridge j factory where tuv-re were several hundred I cabes of ball cartridges. While the foreman and about thirty young women, from sixteen to twenty years of age, were employed in "breaking up. the cartridges, without a mo? ment's warciug a terrific explosion occurred, with a tremendous crash that was beard for several miles round'. The. unfortunate girls, many of whom were Instantly In flames, rush- I ed screaming from the building. The less in? jured ran home across the marshes and tidal ditches; while others, mow seriously scorch- j ed, threw themselves, or were thrown, down and rolled in the mud, In order to extinguish the flames. The roof of the building was I blown away by the first concussion, and a por-1 tton of the walh>, which measured sixty-nine I feet in one direction by twenty in another, was I knocked down. -A peculiarity hos been discovered In the I Immense raft which obstructs the Bed River for many miles. Unlike most raits it moves up loe river Instead of down, the motion being at tte rate of about two miles ia a year. The explanation of this retrograde movement is that the logs of the lower end of the raft are continually broken away and carried off by the floods and flreshets, while the other end ls constantly receiving additions. Thus the j raff, always failing away at one end and grow- j lpg at the other, gradually moves up the river, and lt is calculated that lt has moved since its forming about four hundred miles. In 1833, when theran was one hundred and twenty* four miles long, the work of removing it was commenced by the government, but af er j working at it for twenty-two years the at? tempt was abandoned as Impracticable, and j was confined to opening some of thc lateral Channels, BO as to facilitate navigation. -The Une of defence to be adopted for Stokes, who killed James Fisk, Jr., seems to be that the fatal shot was Inflicted not by Stokes, but by Fisk himself in an endeavor to draw his pletol from his pocket upon meeting with Stokes on the stairway oftbe Grand Cen? tral Hotel. In support of this proposition, it j is alleged by Stokes's counsel that lt Is clear that two pistols were used, from the fict that two bullets of different size were found-one In the body of Fisk, and the other on the floor. One of these bullets flited the pistol found under the sofa in the parlor, and the other did not. This case ls strengthened by a remark alleged to have been made by Fisk when be was first visited by the coroner while lying wounded io ;the hotel. To a quest on J from the official, >w|fe you armed ?" Fisk j ia repotted to hare replied, "Never mind A strong point la favor or the d< ment cf this theory of defence ia that outside clothing WUH taken In charge by people present at the time of the hon and that no evidence is as yet ? forib.com show whether there was any pistol 1 pocket or not. All these facts will, hov be brought out oa the trial. Stokes lu advantage of the services of one of the successful and powerlul advocates of the York bar-Mr. John Graham, a keen, matic and uncompromising lawyer, \ professional motto seems to be to clet clients at all hazards if possible. The will be Interesting when -brought to i trial, and some strange developments m anticipated. In the meantime, Stokes ports himself la th most unconcerned drying in hi3 prison in the attire of a Bi way exquisite, and making constant den for all those luxuries which, in a life of dom, he was in the habit of enjoying. The Proposed Leane of the Soul ll C lina Railroad to the Central Rall Of Georgia-Threatened Rain to People, a nd the State. If the proposed lease of the South olina Railroad be as unwise for the si holders as we have stated; if that li ander the delusive promise of a di vic will end, in the course of a few years, ii destruction of. the stock itself, what ca said to thoee who are interested in the fare of Charleston and South Caro which will adequately arouse them to dangers with which they are threatet There is not a man living in this city, di business here, having bis earnings inve here-whether in bouses or in secaril public or private-who can fail to see disastrous to bim and his interests mu^t the accomplishment of this measure. W in the past seven years, has Bupport?d hopes of tbose who barely, and with pr tion, sustained the heavy taxes and chai on their property, but the slowly and sn developing increase of the trade of the c When, daring tbat long period, bave tl hopes been presented under circumstai which so certainly foretold the realiza of them as at this present moment? Witta parchase of a controlling interest io Greenville Railroad, not only was a g danger averted; but a great benefit seem With a like benefit obtained In tbe contre the Macon and Augusta Road, another d ger was averted, and another advantage cured. With the announcement that tb i objects had been accomplished, relief ca to the hearts of ail whose affections i interests were involved in the pr?serv?t of the material interests of this State t city. Were these acquisitions, these n and assured sources of future prosper! uncared for by those whose interests w antagonistic to. those of this people ? 1 answer is told well .enough in the iliy-ci coaled disappointment of those who ht been working against us, and who, hapr. too late, tried every move their i n ge nu could suggest to break np the arrangemei which had been made, and take from us I advantages which had been secured. Wt are these advantages ? The securely reslor trade of the State and the city, and with the securely restored prosperity of Ahe c and State. Tet strange, passing strange, it that there are persons who calculate confidently on the blindness, the avarice, the necessities of our pooplo aa to euppc that this offer of a dividend will induce t stockholders to turn over to them that co trol of the South Carolina Railroad whl< is but, in plain terms, the control of bo Charleston and Sooth Cu olina. Only a few days ago ve heard a person great intelligence, a stranger sojourn in here, having no interest in the matter, d clare, that, with its present railroad co; nections, in less than five years, the City < Charleston would enjoy greater commercU prosperity than it had ever known; but if lease should be made of the South Carolin Railroad to the Central Railroad of Georgi for twenty years, AT THE END OF THAT TIM ONE . WOULD LOOK AT THE PLACE WHER CHARLESTON HAD BEEN I And we bellev there is a mourn.ul truth in tho prophecy. Not more Used and inseparable are lb relations of cause and effect than are all tb consequences anticipated from this proposi tion to surrender to our rivaLs the means '. oar support. Can any one who is sane te lleve that the proposal is prompted by a de sire for onr good? or believe thataoyo.be motive prompts the offer than the desi.e U secure business for Savannah ? And if witl all the disadvantages under which l itheru we have labared, we have been r.ole, yea: after year, to lessen the advantages whic! circumstances at the close of the war gav? tb Savannah, and, in the course of the las twelve months, show a more decided sue cess in the contest than ut any prevloui time, does tbe offer to lease the Soutt Carolina Railroad fail to show that Savan nah cannot continue the contest, and thai her chance for success consists, in inducing the people of Charleston no loDger to strug? gle with her ? If ever before, in all time, the parallel can be found, to the one side, that, with so much of calculation, attempts to absorb a rival hastening to complete suc? cess; or to the ether, that, it is supposed, will be so weak as to listen to such proposi? tions, we confess ourselves unable to dis? cover it. What is there now which does not render it probable that our receipts of colton will go on increasing until they will in a short time exceed that of Savannah ? What is there now which does not make it impossible, if the South Carolina Railroad is under the control of the Central Railroad, for the people of Charleston to receive as much cotton as they now receive ? What is there now which does not render it probable that the wholesale business of Charleston, with the advantages recently secured, will not be, in a short time, as ex? tensive and lucrative os its warmest friends would wish ? What makes it possible that this trade can survive at all with the control of it in the hands of a large corporation intensely en? gaged in the development of a rival city in which every advantage to it i?3 a loss to thia city ? What make3 it probable that the retail business of this city, under such circum? stances, can improve ? What makes it otherwise than impossible that us fate should be other than would cor? respond with the prostration which would mark every entorprise, every business, every interest whatsoever thut ha3 its place here ? It is idle to say lhat our apprehensions are extravagant; that no Buch consequences will result. Can the City of Charleston improve, can it maintain itself, il the South Carolina Railroad is controlled by any persons whose interests are adverse to its prosperity ? They who believe that it caa, are they who be? lieve tbat the City of Charleston can main? tain itself without railroad communications which connect it with the interic4P and ocean communications which connect it with other ports. There can be no argu? ment with such us believe that commercial prosperity can come from a position of com? plete isolation. We know that there are some who believe that all these disastrous circumstances will be amply provided for in the proposed lease, and safeguards secured against them. But will such as so believe take the trouble to ask themselves if they would undertake, if they had the power, to say what should be these safeguards on which they rely, and next whether they will be accepted and en? forced ? It would be as imprudent for the one to undertake to secure protection in such a case as it would be folly to suppose that it would be afforded. The best, the only protection is in having the ownership and the control of the railroad interests of the State in the hands of the people of the State. Where everything connected with the mate? rial welfare of the people of the State now depends in so great a degree upon the rail? roads in the State, let our people be wise and keep in their own hands the control of these | railroads. _ _ A Good Day's Work. The Chamber of Commerce, at its meet? ing yesterday, took action upon the impor? tant matter of the condition of the Harbor and Bar, and, also, appointed a committee to consider the best means of securing a snpply of X~?3h water to the city. As the improvement of the Harbor is necessary for the accommodation of our growing com? merce, so is the establishment of a system of water-works indispensable to the cleanli? ness, the health and the security of Charles? ton. The Chamber of Commerce did a good day's work. _ _ _ WE beg to! direct the attention .of our readers to the sketch of the history and ob? jects of the new Radical Eu-Elux organiza? tion, printed in to-day's NEWS. Club-Women. A new club in New York City-the Stand? ard, founded four years and a half ago by a company of Germans-admits ladles to IIB privileges, and so marks a new departure. The members see no good reason why women should be excluded irom social enjoyment and harmless recreation. Therefore we read of a ladles' parlor In the new club-house, frescoed In light blue, and furnished sumptu? ously In blue satin, with luxurious hangings and adornments. It le not surprising to bear that the club-women, who have been Invited to Join the clhb-men of their households, re? gard the institution of the club with more favor than formerly. It ls to be presumed that clubs become refined, like every other circle in society, by the presence of the gen? tler sex. fiostetter's Bitters. LIFE-How Inconsistent ls human nature? Men carry revolvers to protect themaaiveg against ruf? fians in w Il-pollshed cities, where the precaution ls unnecessary, often neglect to fortify their sys? tems against disease In the most unhealthy sea? sons. Thonsands or dyspeptics and other Invalids are now languishing In sick rooms, or feebly and listlessly moving throngh our streets, who owe their forlorn condition solely to a want of com? mon prudence. Far more inimical than the roughs and rowdies, against whose possible attacks ihe timid arm tbemielve?, are the morbid elements that pervade the atmosphere at this time of the year, and yet, although lt ls an undented ana un? deniable fact that HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BIT? TERS afford amore perfect protection against these causes of disease than any weapon ot offence can afford against lawless violence, the reckless and inconsiderate continue to brave the danger with a positive safeguard within their reach. Every day, however, the number of these mar? tyrs to their own want of forecast diminishes. Each succeeding season demonstrates more clear? ly the Inestimable value of the Bitters, both as an antidote for the causes of disease and a specific Tor its consequences. The miasma which gene? rates periodic disorders, rhumatlsm, liver com? plaint. Irregularity or the bowels and other physi? cal disturbances, prod aces no effect whatever upon systems toned, strengthened and regulated by this powerful vegetable medicine, and dyspep? sia, nervous debility, constipation, Intermittent and remittent fevers, biliousness, and la fact nearly all the maladies which the Bitters, If taken in time, would prevent, are cured by the perse? vering uss of the great remedy. The genuine Bitters sold In bottles only, and never by the barre), keg or gallon, as ls represent? ed by some unprincipled dealers. feb5-jnwrSD*c Cost ano Sonno.
