The I latter, who ls the leader of the national party I in Russia, (a sort of Russian Enow-Nothing concern,) causes great .chagrin to his father . by lils conduct to the Germane,,whom he cor? dially dislikes. He has repeatedly behaved in the most offensive manner towards the Prince De Reusa, the German ambassador at St. Petersburg, and even, it is whispered, to more eminent representatives of thejSerman nation. -A New York letter of Saturday BayB: Our French adopted citizens here are emulating the patriotism of their fellow-countrymen at home, in doing what they can to help pay off the big German war debt. The contributions from various individuals during the last ten days have run up between $7000 and $8000 In small sums; and, to-day, the compositors of the Courier des Etats Unis have resolved to lay by a weekly amount as long as the sub? scription ls kept open. The Garde Lafayette and other French organizations, civic as well as military, are also coming to the rescue in the same way and in the same spirit. -That interminable play, the "Black Crook," which seems to survive all accidents of change in New York, has been so often "reconstructed" as almost to preclude the supposition that any additional attraction could be added to lt. But as lt ls now put upon the stage atNiblo's Garden, it includes two features of more than passing in!crest. One of these is the arrangement of a sort of circus ring upon the stage, r round which a horse prances with a traiaed goat upon his back, the said educated goat, something like the "wonderful cynocephalus," leaping over bars, through hoops, Ac. Another Incident is a dance by one of the female performers, In which her "partner" is a real anaconda. This last episode, which is described as "thrilUnjr," 1?, lt must be confessed, something of a "sen? sation." -The following illustration ls given of eti? quette in the time of Louis XV: In the queen's apartment there were two chambers. One day the queen saw a speck ol' dust?n her bed and Bhowedit to Madame -de Luynes, her maid of honor. The latter sent for the valet de chambre, bed-maker to the queen, that he might show lt to the valet de chambre, bed? maker to the Mag, ? Ihe latter arrived at the end of an hour, but "Bald that the dust waB note of his business because the bed-makerB oT-theJtlngmade up the common bed of the queen but were forbidden to touch the state bed. Consequently the doBt must be remov? ed by the offlcera of the household. The queen gave orders that they should be sent lor, and every day for two months she asked If the dust had been brushed off, but they had not yet found out whose duty lt was to remove the speck. Finally the queen picked upa feather duster and brushed it i off. Great was the scandal thereof, but no one dreamed of blaming the absence of the officers, they only found that the queen had been' wanting In etiquette. The New York View of the South Caro? lin? Kailroad, The article from the New York Daily Bul? letin, published in another column, is, we regret to say, grossly incorrect. It professes to describe the annual meeting of the stock? holders, of the South Carolina Railroad, to set forth th? condition of the road and to point out the reasons which make a lease to the Central Railroad of Georgia advanta? geous to the stockholders of the South Caro? lina Railroad; but every assertion which is made, as the basis of its arguments, is either positively untrue or so colored as to convey a wholly false idea of the facts. 1. The Daily Bulletin says that the an? nual meeting was "stormy" and "angry," and that "a favorable reception was accord "ed"' to resolutions looking to the lease of the road. The truth is th at tho meeting was singularly harmonious, that it3 whole tone Was adverse to any. lease, and that the pro? position5 to require the directors to call a special meeting to consider any* definite proposition for a lease which might be made, was laid upon the table with only two dis centient votes-those of the mover and sec-1 onder of the resolution. 2. The Daily Bulletin Bays that the report was not favorable, that a heavy decrease of business was announced, and that it was stated-that the road was seriously embar? rassed by floating; and other debts. The truth is that the report, taking into account the influences of the yellow fever epidemic and'the effects of a short cotton crop and active competition, was highly favorable; as is shown by the - fact that, the decrease in business on the Sooth Carolina Railroad, in spite Of all adverse conditions, was less than ten per cent, while the decrease 00 the Cen? tral Railroad (which the Da Hy Bulletin calls "a prosperous and well-managed railroad") was, for the same period, over twenty per cent. Far. from it being stated that the company was embarrassed by its debts, it was clearly shown that tho only pressing claim-the sterling-bonds-bad been con? verted into Orst mortgage bonds, and SQ ex? tended as to give the company ample leisure for discharging all its obligations. 3. The Daily Bulletin says that the South Carolina Railroad hos paid no dividends "for "?.he last five or six years." The truth is that a dividend of $2 a share was paid in 18.70, and a dividend of $1 per share ID 1871 ; dividends being suspended at this time only to allow of. a reduction or t^je floating debt, and to enable the company to dispose of the liabilities incurred in the purchase of a con? trolling interest in the Greenville and Co tuniuta anerMacon and Augusta Railroads which roads mast add largely to the revenue of the purchasing company. The road has earned a dividend every year. It has been spent in rebuilding and re-equipping the line, which, at the close of the war, was a ruin; Its property, at that time, being insufficient, If sold by the sheriff, to satisfy the claims of the holders of its bonds. 4. The Daily Bulletin says that the rolling stock and road are known to be in a bad condition. The truth ia that no other rail? road in the Southern States is in as.good order, or is as folly and thoroughly equipped. We pass by the praises lavished upon the Central Railroad of Georgia. It is sufficient j to say that it challenged competition with the South Carolina Railroad, and bas re? ceived a wholesome defeat The falling off id its receipts for 1871 was double the falling off in the receipts of the South Carolina Rail? road, and the decrease in the receipts of cotton at Savannah, this season, is double the decrease in the receipts of cotton at Charleston for the same period. This may indicate that the Central Railroad is "a "prosperous, well-managed railroad, and "does a good business," but we do not see it in that light, nor do the stockholders of the South Carolina Railroad. That the leasing of the South Carolina Railroad to the Central Railroad would be j runous alike to the stockholders, and io the City of Charleston, we do know. And the benevolent suggestions of the Daily Bulletin cannot overcome the broad fact that, under the lease, the South Carolina Railroad wonid be managed for the benefit of Savan? nah, and cot for the permanent ben?t of the stockholders, or for the commercial ad? vancement of Charleston. The "parties" making the lease could afford to pay a divi? dend for a few years, in order to destroy a riva!, who is taking away their business and steadily relfccing their income. The plot is too transparent, and they who doubt that the Central Railroad is in earnest, and who think that THE NEWS sounded the alarm without sufficient cause, will surely be convinced and converted by the statements of the Daily Bulletin, and by its frank avowal that Mr. Moses Taylor,, who is buyirigup the stock of the Si v Carolina Railroad, and is a chief owner in the Savan? nah and New York steamship lines, holds "a controlling interest" ia the Central Rail? road, and "?B now a director." We do not charge the Daily Bulletin, as yet with anything more than inexcusable ignor? ance of the subject which it has ventured to discuss. We have given it the facts, and its couduct will show whether, or not, it desires to do the South Carolina Railroad Company and the people of Charleston a wilful and deliberate wrong. The Blue Ridge Bill. Only a week or two ago the Senate promptly voted down a Blue Ridge Railroad bill not a whit more objectionable than that which the House has sent to them for adop? tion. The new Blue Ridge bill, upon the j plea of relieving the State from a remote and questionable liability, proposes to give Mr.- Patterson and his colleagues $1,800,000 in ready money, and to release the Blue Ridge Road from all claims on the part of the State. No authoritative exhibit of the debts bf the road baa been made, 'bot - they are said to amount to about. $750,OOO. To pay off these de?tsj wbioh are' debts or the road, and not debt s of the State, the L?gisla? ture is asked to give the " company $1,800, OOO io scrip, which is made receivable in payment ol taxes, and for the extinction of which scrip an annual tax of three mills is to be levied. ? The taxation demanded for meeting the expenses of the government is ob?rons enough. Only one half of the tax levy of .1871 has been collected, and we remind the Senate that doubling and trebling the amount of the tax does not increase, in the .same proportion, the income from taxation. If only one half of the taxes could be paid when the State tax was seven mills, how much will remain in arrears when tti?State tax is fifteen mills, with an addi? tional three mills for the benefit of the Blue Ridge Bing? The Senate, from their stand-point, deem it right to levy a tax sufficient to cover current expenses and the deficiencies in previous ^appropria? tions; bot where is the necessity of taxing the people for the benefit of a Bing, who, at a nominal cost of $13,000, have possessed themselves of the Bine Ridge Railroad*, upon which about three million dollars have been laid out? The Ring do not promise to com? pl?te the road. They have, no other object than to clear od .their debts, at the expense of the State, and to sell oat the road to a new Ring who will uso the powers granted by the new Blue Ridge bill to the injury of the whole people. Mr. Patterson was chagrined that his first bill was so quickly killed by the Senate. He said that he could count on the House, and the event proves that he did not miscalculate his strength. Yet be expects the new Blue Bidge bill to pass the Senate; and it is rumored in Columbia that he will "buy "enough senators" te make victory certain. We do not think be will succee? ; bat we warn the Senate that, according to common report, large sums of money are to be paid for votes for the Blue Ridge bill. The peo? ple are on the alert, and they will watch the vote with a jealous eye. Pills -va. the Peerage. It is stated that no physician in England, however able and eminent, has ever been made a peer, though lawyers, clergymen, merchants, manufacturers and men of letters have been let into the House ot Lords. A number of physicians have been made baro? nets, and Dr. William Gull, one of the physi? cians to the Prince ol Wales, ls to be thus honored. Slr William Jenner 1B to be ad? vanced from a baronet to be Civil Knight Commander of the Bath. When George IT proposed to promote Slr Henry Halford to the peerage, tbe aristocracy manifested great alarm and indignation, and Tom Moore satiri? cally protested OB follows: '.Forbid lt I forbid lt l ye viscounts, ye earls I Oh, Rank, how thy glories would fall disen? chanted, Ifcovonets glistened with pills 'stead of pearls, And the strawberry leaves were by rhubarb supplanted." I Sawyer and Schurz. A lady correspondent of Forney's Philadel? phia Press writes a gushing letter about her visit to the galleries of Congress, and awards to South Carolina the credit of having the best looking senator in the lot. She sayB : "The ! "hear everything that ls said; this added to "the dignified bearing of the senators makes "it stand In striking contrast with the House, "and Alls its galleries every day. We see the "same faces In the gallery day after day, and "feel as If we knew the blonde in a blue bon "net and ermine furs, and os to the old lady "who brings her knitting, she ls as familiar to "us as our own dear grandmother. The sena? tors are a very fine-looking set of men. - The "handsomest form and face belongs to Sena "tor Sawyer ot South Carolina. Tall, broad "shouldered, with clearly cut features, large "dark eyes, with ever a latent humor In them; "neatly trimmed gray beard and mustache, "his shiny bald head has long since been my "admiration. Carl Schurz is a slightly built "man, wilh chesnut curls about his head, a low "brow, and dark whiskers and mustache. He "wears spectacles, when he speakB he stands "behind his chair, raises his ohln and gesticu? lates freely. His rhetoric is sublime. He "enunciates In a low clear voice, with a slight "German.accent which softens our language "and adds a charm to what he says." (avocational. SOLFEGE CLASS.-MRS. P. J.
