I The-iron shell of ooe ol the. forts for Spithead, I near Portsmouth, has'been shipped by roil for that harbor from the works of the Whit worths, in the iron i districts. This shell or skeleton weighs twenty-four hundred tons, und is to be fitted up with flfteen-lnch iron plates twenty six feet In length.

Grant on Saturday last. The j letter of resignation has in it no word In praise j i or supperfOf-the administration or the aete of j ( the Executive. Colonel Forney Bays he will devote his efforts to his newspaper "and to 11 ?- the'energetic support ot the principles of the I great Republican .party." He thanks General Grant lor his kindness and consideration, but.] he don't say a word about supporting him for renomination. He reluctantly accepted,, the.j i office of collector because he apprehended lt I would -seriously interfere with, his business, I ' and especially with his Independence as a jour- j a nails t. -After ten months' experience he ls en- J < tir ely confirmed In this impn- s-lon, all of which I j means that w.hiiEt be. held office, he was under obligations lo'maintain the adm!Die:ration and 1 support Grant, - and that he has, In the mean- , time, been forced to do violence to his belter Judgment, and that now he throws oh* the offi? cial shackles, and is free to criticise Generali' Grant as a candidate for re-election .to the office of President It ls a well-known lace that Forney ls not-'a believer in 'the great po- ? Utica! sagacity of Grant, and-does not approve I' Of his management of party affairs in some ! respecto, p.nd we- may in due time expect to hear from Forney to that effect. I -A letter .from Berlin, Prussia, states Chat I a spirit of sp?culation ls taking pessis-ionof the staidj>eqple of thal great capital of a mil- li lion inhabitants somewhat Blmllar to that Jj which affected .us toward the olose of our re cent civil war. Most of the necessaries of I; lifo have, within a lew months, advanced there twenty-five to fifty per cent. Beal I est?te, In speculative sections, bas gone up ono hundred per cent, within a year. Private manufacturing concerns are being turned Into fi stock companies with generous capitals, andi: at least air banks have recently been formed for the transaction of brokerage and commis sion business, in connection with deposit and discount. In one instance, the writer is as sured, where the capital of the bank ls two million thalers, one prominent member of the Bourse has been paid four i undred thousand lj thalers Ipr.his business name, and the same broker .employed to manage the concern at a Jj salary of twenly thousand thalers and half the [j profits. Forty per cent, of the capital has been paid-up-probably no more will ever bel paid-: and although scarcely in operation, the stock of this bank ls being bought at an ad- , vance .of seventy-five per cent, above par. Iii There ls no Inflation of the currency, but there fi sire wondertully high hopes ot the future of the capital of the German Empire. That lhere I la. to be a large amount .of disappointment and considerable financial disaster there can hardly be a doubt. The result In thia country I fell far short of prophecy, and so it will in Germany. -A New York letter of Saturday says: The I mose noteworthy sensation to-day was the indictment of Mayor Hall conjointly with j Tweed and Sweeney, In the Court of General j Sessions,.of frauds against the city of one j kind and another. After the Indictments were read. Mayor Hall rose* and said: 'T ap- I pear to respond to the action of this court. I Twice before it .haye I been counsel fori offlo als charged with official misdemeanor. One was a Judge of this very tribunal. The I other was a former mayor. They were each absolved, aa I expect tobe. lam here toi .fier ball. . I am here to waive all irregulars ties committed by ihe grand jury, and I be-1 lleve them to have been many.' Nor do I de? mur to the Indictment, nor move to quash it. [ I plead to the general Issue and ask that an I early day be appointed for the trial. This isl manifestly due to the public and to the ac-1 cused, who nas patiently awaited, through much malice and persecution, his vindication. I I ask the earliest day-possibly Mondiy week. I Also, aa lt is announced that j our Honor leaves the city to obtain relaxation from arduous labore, and- I desire Immediate trial, and SB the other Judge of this court onght not, ?rom social restons, to net in any case of mice, I suggest that any ene of the ex-offlclo justices of this court, io whom I such reasons cannot apply, be snbs* have much' to -say, bot I reserv remarks for the opportunity o? mee and Jury." Jndge Bedford ordered trial be set down peremptorily on 19th Instant, and fixed the bail at $20 Indictment. It is proper to say bert Indictments do not charge the mi fraud nor complicity with fraud, but demeanor, In neglecting to properly public accounts.

The Railroad meeting Tester The adjonrned meeting of the st? era of the Sooth Carolioa Bailroa yesterday, passed off quietly; the ] inga being marked by practical 1 sense as well as lively pat riot ?3 narrow views were entertained or ex Toe evident desire was to do the bei ble for the,safe-keeping and theil ment of Sooth Carolina, os represei oar main line of internal commun without indulging in any petty jeali neighboring cities and States. A lar is open to the railroads of the South, the seaports whose commerce.they G There is ample room for all, and it ic by far that powerful corporations work, harmoniously together than tba should, by rash competition, exhaust treasury and become an easy prey attacks of adversaries whom, in the i of their vigor, they contd speedily come. This is the spirit which pro the resolution o tiered by Mr. Trenholn unanimously adopted by the meeting. Th apropos ed lease of the. road we cussed by Mr. Lo?is D. DeSanssn Colonel Lathers and by Mr. Tret They held it to be a duty and a como necessity to retain int Sooth Carolin direction of oar chief railroad. Tbej ready, os already remarked, tb unite the railroad companies Cf Alabama Georgia fer the parp?se of securing t vannah and to Charleston the bus which naturally belongs to those ports they are not willing, and the people cn bo willing, to lead even generous rivah temptation by giving them the key tc coffera--by miking; them the arbiters o destiny, and holding out, to them the mise of surpassing prosperity at the pri our misfortune. . . The representatives of the Ring mad attempt to reverse the decisive vote of 1 day. They felt their weakness, and did care to risk a second full. But they 1 not abandoned the contest. They are w ing more actively than ever. All day ter lay they and their agents were bu; ap.South Carolina Railroad stock!, i Mr. John H. James, "If you "mean to patriotic and own your own railroad, ; ion\ you buy the four hundred shares i hawked about the streets;" which shares, moy add, were snapped ap by Mr. John James as soon as the meeting adjourn And we are compelled to repeat He. Jam? question: If the people are resolved, at matter of interest and H matter of patri ism, to retain the control of the Sooth Ca lina Railroad, why do they allow the Ri to add dally to the thousands of shares tl already possess ? . The fight is only began. Unless the pi pie take measures for absorbing imm?diat a large part of the stock of the compai the Ring will have a controlling'inter within ninety days, and before Christin will baye the Soatb Carolina Railroad completely nnder their thumb as though were a street railway in Savannah, or i opera-house In the city of Which Mr. Jot H. James is Mayor. -We print elsewhere the result or tl election held at the meeting. The. board directors were re-elected by an almo un an i mons vote, General James Con DC taking the place of the Hon. Charles A Forman, who declined a re-election. The Tax on Type. I- i The American Newspaper Reporter take ap the question of the tariff on printie, type; and shows the exorbitant tax levie upon the printing offices for the benefit c the American type founders. Ia the follow iog table is given the price of type in Tor onto and in New York : tiize Toronto. Aew Tork Nonpareil, per pound.62c 76c Minion, per pound.50c 68c Brevier, per pound.44c 64c Bourgeois, per pound.40c 60c Long Pt lmer, per pound... 36c 56c Small Pica, per pound.34c 54c According to this table, the American printers pay for their body type an averagt of 63 cents a pound, while the Canadiac printers pay an average of 44 cents a pound. The diff?rence in price is fifty per cent. The tariff on printing type produces only a nominal revenue. It is prohibitory, aud serves no other parp?se than to increase the expenses of the most important manu? facturing Interest in the coun try. The Re? porter shows that the annual production of printing in the United States is $75,000,000, employing, over thirty thousand skilled me? chanics, while the annual production of type foanding is $1,500,000, employing about twelve hundred mechanics. If we add to the production of printers the adver? tising income of the newspapers, ibe pro? duction will amount to over $100,000,000 annually. Three typa founders dictate the price which American primers shall pay for their materials. Thirty thousand mechanics are taxed for the benefit of this Junta. The whole newspaper press of ihe country is fleeced in order that the few mon?plists may grow rich. Mr. Yoorbees, of Indiana, has introduced a bill to place printing type and material on the free list, and every journalist in the land should second his efforts. The press make and unmake reputations; they nominate and elect Congressmen. Where would the mem? bers of the present Congress be if their party newspapers bad opposed instead of supportiog them ? We shall see whether the press, so potent in advancing the in? terests of others, cannot do something for themselves. If we work one-half as bard to induce Congress to repeal the tariff on type as we do to elect ungrateful politicians to fat places, the bill of Mr. Voorhees will pass through both bouses without a halt. The Congressmen from South Carolina J were not elected by THE NEWS, but, for the sake of their own organs, present and pro? spective, they should become zealous advo? cates of admitting type free of duty. When type costs 44 cents a pound instead of 63, it will be easier to establish Radical sheets for the enlightenment of benighted South Carolina, They can be started upon a small? er subscription, and, when they begin to run fast, will require less public pap and less private pecuniary assistance. If Congressmen Wallace, Bainey, Elliott ] I and Bowen, and Senators Sawyer and ' Robertson desire a re-election, or if they only desire to do justice to their constituents, they will immediately take ap the case of type, and give the House and Senate no rest until they remove, that tax upon brains and education known as the tariff on printing material. y ** " * IV tl Ht the South Rr quires. The effeotB of reconstruction are very plain? ly Bhown in Louisiana, the value of colton lands haviog very greatly declined from that pf three or four years ago. It ls stated that this'result bas not been produced by the change in the system bf labor, or by any diminution In the price of cotton, which ls higher than lt was. before the war.. .The plant.-) have used every effort to recover themselves, but the value ot land has steadily de ter ?orated, not withstanding that a larger out? lay has been made in the Improvement and | repair of plantations and buildings. The cause of this gloomy state of things appears to be the Impoverishment resulting from exorbi? tant taxation, which has reached a sum very nearly equal to one-third of the total exporta: tlon of Southern products. Of course such an Impost bears with especial severity upon agriculture, which is, and always, has been, the mam-stay of the Soulb. It ts useless to expect any change lor the better until the Southern people, without let or hindrance from the general government, apply them? selves properly to the establishment of their political affairs upon a healthful, social and economic basis. That ls the first thing to be attended to. After that will naturally come retrenchment, reduced taxailoh and suitable efforts lor the development of production;. The natural resources of the South are im? mense, and we .cannot doubt tbattbe South? ern States, after all their woes, will sooner or. later enjoy an era bf uninterrupted prosperi? ty. But before that period arrives,' (here must be firmly established such a reign of law and order, and, economic principles ol government as will invite the employment of captlal and assure public confidence as to Its security. Without good government there cannot be public confidence; and without pub? lic conihk-nce there cannot 06 any Valuable permanent developments productiveness. New Books. FERNANDO DE LEMOS: TRUTH AND FICTION. A Novel. By Cnarles Gayarr?. New York: G. W. Carleton & Co. Charleston : Holm cs's Bcok House. These sketches ol'lffe In the Southern and Western States, and in Europe, are piquant j and startling enough to satisfy a veteran novel reader. The story, a mere thread, ls well told, and the frequent change of scene, and the mingling bf fad and fiction, of sociology and metaphysics, of. the Carlist rebellionand' the Conlederale war, of spiritualism and buc? caneering, make the book very Interesting. Nor will the keen edge el curiosity ba blunted by the knowledge that in Fernando Be Lomos are narrated many of the events of the authcr's.llfe. At no distant day Mr. Gayarr? promises to publish a sequel entitled Aubert Dubayer. Pp.486. Clotb. Price $2. ROUND,THE WORLD.' INCLUDING A RESIDENCE IN VICTORIA AND A JOURNEY BT KAIL ACROSS NORTH AMERICA. By a Boy. Edited by Samuel Smites. Author of Self Help, Ac. : Wich Illustrations. New York: Harper A Brothers. 1872. Charleston: HoimeB's Book House. Mr. Smiies's youngest son has made a brave j beginnlog in the world of letters. The vol- j urns' before us ls exactly what lt professes to be-a boy's narrative of his voyage to Aus? tralia, his lifo In the gold-miulog districts, his voyage to San Francisco, and the long rail-1 way Journey acrof 8 ihe North American Con? tinent. It ls thoroughly genial and fresh, un-1 affected in style, and lull of valuable Informa? tion which does not, however, inveigle the reader imo the dreary domain of statistics. We can cordially recommend Bound the World to all boys, whether old or young. The illustrations and maps are decidedly good. Pp. 289. Cloth. Price $1 50. HEART-HCNORT. A Novel. By Marla Jourdan Westmoreland. New York: G. W.'Carlton j A Co. Charleston: Holmes"s Book House. As long as publishers can be found for them, we suppose that novels of the Heart-Hungry school will continue to be written and read. In truth, lt does not belie its title; and ls pre? cisely what a novel with such a name has a right to bc-false lu sentiment, and tawdry | aud slovenly la style. A sweet Southern girl jills a mau who loves her, marries a man whom she does not love, becomes enamored ol the editor of a Savanuah newspaper, re? mains physically pure while morally corrupt, and, atlast, levants to New York to solace her reckless Journalist, who has pluRged a dagger Into ihe heart of his foe, and who, to save himsell from the noose, commits suicide in prison. The dying plaint of the literary lover convinces the patient husband that he has nothing to forgive. There Is a hearty re? conciliation and tue penitent wife expires soon allerward In the odor ol sanctity. The moral of all this is, thal there ls no harm done ll you don't go too lur-a devilish doctrine, which spreads rapidly enough without the help of a Southern novel. Pp. 332. Cloth. Price $2.

The principles of i his paper will be thoroughly Republican, and we win strive to sonare its course with the doctrines of that grrat party which saved the nation In its honr of peril, made lt honorable at home and respected abroad, which has enlarged the limits of civil liberty within our ') own borders, and furnished Lew idea? on the' subject to the world. We shall strive to illustrate that liberality or sentiment, which believes that men may disagree with regard to. pnbllc measures, without the ran? cour of bitter hostility; and we will always be ready to extend the largest charity towards opin? ions which we may even deem unwise If only we are convinced tliat'they are honestly entertained: We believe, and will maintain, that the present State Administration has contributed largely to I the Improvement of all our people-especially of the bumbler classes, both white and colored, to | Whom lt has, by wlaeaod wholesome legislation, aflorUed an equal wmnco In the race of Ute, and sure and Just protection in all their rights and privileges. While we will not attempt to deprecate the ex? alted qualities or that class which, up to the late revolution, ruled the state-qualities, indeed, of | which we are Justly proud-yet we cannot con-, sent to Kacrlflcii the welfare of the mass of the' people to any individual developmen*, however I wriendld and pre-eminent. . We will contend that 'the civilization of this state, up to the rise on he Republican party within ita borders; was narrow, excludive ant sei tish; and that lt tended, in equal degrees, to the elevation of a few and to the de-1 presshiQ of the many. We hall at preient with ? I Joy, and will strive to foster it in the future, the rise of the lower classes of the State, both white .and colored, from th-lr long humility n der evil institutions to foll citizenship and comp ete man? hood. We rejoice In the abolition of slavery as i removing a moral stigma from our national char? acter, and lifting an incubus (rom our Industrial pursuits, ; We will spare neither labor nor expense to make the Dally Republican a lively and instruc? tive saeet, and we will strive to adapt lt to the tastes and necessities Of all our people. The Weekly Republican will be issued every Sat*. | nrday, and will c >ntain, in a-t dillon to the news .of the week ana full editorial matter, an abund? ance of well selected light reading, which will 'make ltan aceeptible companion In every house? hold lu the Biate. Ia conclusion, we call upon all liberal, moderate 'and (min h tened men, and especially upon all true Republicana, toland us a prompt and fall sup? port. SUBSCRIPTION RATES BY MAIL.
