-Th? resignadon of Colonel Forney, as col-1
lector bf customs, at Philadelphia, was hand
ed to President. 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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

ROSPE OTUS.
CHARLESTON DAILY REPUBLICAN.
We propose to Issue on MONDAY next the flrst
number or au Afternoon Paper in the City or I
char eaton. This Journal will tea revival of the
Charleston Daily Republican, nnder better
auspices, we hope, and on a surer basis.' We are
glad to announce, aa aa earnest of success, that
the enterprise has met with the most cordial as?
surances of support from Democrats as well as1
Republicans.
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.
