Several of the journals of India ( protest againat this cowrie. The Bombay ' Gazette says: "We read of one village after another burnt to the ground, with Immense stores of food collected by the miserable pop? ulation to feed them for many months to come. This work of destruction seems to be carnied out with pitiless severity, though the resis? tance to ihe advance of the British troops is so trifling that there ia in truth 'no enemy' for the troops to contend against," -A balloon ascent unprecedentedly satis? factory is reported from Vincennes, France. During the siege of Paris one M. Dupuy de Lome received from the Government of Na Uonal Defence an offer of twenty thousand dollars for a balloon which he undertook to furnish, but it was not finished prior to the capitulation of Paris. About three weeks ago when all was complete, he made an ascent with thirteen men, and the result seems to have proved to demonstration the perfection of his method of guiding. The balloon is said to have obeyed ihe helm with tho utmost alacrity, and to have progressed readily in the "??eth of the wind. If ibis goes on, railway and steam-packet stockholders must prepare for a fall. Loudon and Paris will become a three-days journey from New York when the wind favors. -The far-famed Jenner has now a rival in the person of Dr. Zuelzer, of Berlin, who has fixed a "sling" and gone forth to meet the giant small-pox?with bold and confident mien. Not all persons are permitted to have this celebrated disease, and therefore lt ls not I every one who can look forward with any de I gree of confidence to tbe personal use of tbe doctor's specific as a sieady beverage. The name of this new boon to mankind ls Xylol, and its nature and functions will beat once understood when lt is stated that by distilling oil of tar, there Is obtained, at 81 degrees, eels, bensol; at 110 degrees, toluol; at 140 degrees, xylol, and at 216 degree?, xylodln. After this, it ls almost superfluous to state that the pe? culiar effect ol xylol ls owing to a property lt has of combining with the virus in the blood and formlns* a salt, which ls harmlessly eject? ed by tue system. At first lt might be easily supposed that toluol would act in the same manner, but a second thought will convince auy one that the necessary affinity is totally lacking in this case. The practical results of the use of xylol have so far been very remark? ably favorable, and lt is said that the dreaded disease ls rapidly abating lu Berlin under the new treatment. By all means let us import some xylol forthwith. Dr. Zuelzer, what are your terms?_ The Blue Ridge Bill. The men who voted for the Blue Ridge bill will not be forgotten at the. Fall elec? tions. They may find that it is sometimes cheaper to take nothing than a bribe of $1000. The promised veto of Governor Scott is only a well understood part of the the game. As Picket pnts it-Scott will gain a reputation lor honesty, and the bill will pass ali the same. A graphic descrip? tion of the whole plot will be fonnd in our Columbia correspondence. The Philadelphia Convention - Will President Grant Pay tbe Bribe 1 Of late years the American people have become accustomed to seeing the highest ofiicers of the Republic use their official power only for strengthening and consolida? ting their party. The National Republicans, during the administrations of Hr. Lincoln and Mr. Grant, have distributed the vast patronage of the government, with an eye ?ingle to the success of their candidates, and to breaking down their antagonists. All pretence of considering personal fitness and the public good has been abandoned. From tbe most exalted position to the humblest, from the judgeships of the Supreme Court to postmastershipa in country towns, the rule of conduct has been, and is, to appoint poli? ticians who will direct their official influence to building up the party which gives them the means of living at the public cost. The J officials of the United States are political par-1 tisans whose duty is not to serve the people, bat to bribe, bully and coax for the benefit J of their party leaders. And the evil is off even wider scope. If candidates were taken or rejected because of their political staunchness or backsliding, the system would still tend to relax the moral fibre and to lower the tone of pnblic opinion. Now, I however, it is well understood that official patronage is not only used to prop the fail-1 ing strength of a party, but to sustain a particular member of that party. As the welfare of the people has been made eubser- j vient to the welfare of a party, so bas the j welfare of the party been made subservient I :o the welfare of an individual. The course I )f events in New Tork and in the West is a (triking evidence of the depths to which the < lablic representatives have fallen. There j he Republican party is divided, and it is j clearly to the advantage of the leaders to i ?emove the causes of deep-rooted dissatis fae- ' ion, pacify the schismatics, and present a 11 lolid front to the opposition. This is not dene. I ' in the contrary, war is made upon every I ranon who is opposed to the renomination I ( if President Grant. Republicanism is su- j j >erseded by Graniism. The Republican, 11 iowever able and honest, who is not ac na- ! lompromlsing supporter of Mr. Grant, is de- I icnnced as a traitor, and neither he nor bis I risnds need expect even the crumbs which all from the Executive table. Some pre ence of disinterestedness has been kept up? Dhe veil remains drawn, and the public eye s not expected to pierce its transparent ' olds. But South Carolina has the honor of 1 resenting the question in a way which com- ' >eis candid action. Mr. Grant must ac- ' :ept the hostility of the South Carolina Rad- ! cala, or must win their support at Pbila- , ielphia, by bribery as open and unconcealed ts that which is practiced in the Radical Legislature of this State. j The facts an before the publia Last \ ?reek the State Republican Convention as- i lembled in Columbia, and delegates were \ ippointed to represent the Republicans of < .he State in the Philadelphia National Re-11 publican Convention. Tbe Convention did j lot declare itself in favor ol the renomioa- ! ion of President Grant at Philadelphia. I, That would have been the height of stupidity ? >n the part of men whose practice is, "to "do nothing for nothing." The delegates ?eld a meeting after the adjournment of the Convention, and formally declared their in? tention to go to Washington and promise Hr. Grant their vote at Philadelphia-if he would remove the Federal officials in South Carolina, and appoint the nominees of the lelegation in their stead. These delegates .vere selected to discharge a high public letty-that of voting for a man to be sup? ported, by their party, for President They J lid not even say that their choice would be i i ietermined by pnblic considerations-that .hey would vote for the man whom they ? Jeemed most likely to give to the nation the j i blessings of constitutional liberty, of pros? perity and peace- They declared, in so many words, that they would vote for Mr. Grant if he gave them a certain number of places worth so many thousand dollars a year. The programme is charmingly sim? ple. Mr. Grant has the disposal of Federal offices, and with them can buy the support of the South Carolina Radical delegates. These delegates, with a number of Federal offices in their hand, can buy all the minor politicians in the State, and do, for their own advancement, what Mr. Grant is invi? ted to do in order to secure his renomina? tion, j Mr. Grant cannot evade the proposition which is about to be made to him. To give an office for a vote is the same thing as buy? ing a vote with money. Bribery is the name j which fits both transactions. Nay, the giv- j ing of office is worse than giving money. If Mr. Grant pays ten thousand dollars for a vote the loss is only ten thousand dollars. When he gives an office for a vote he enables a pack of rascally agitators to foist dolts and knaves upon the public; he enables them, by the power he gives them, to make their position impregnable, and to pursue with impunity their pet occupation of robbing Hie people. If Mr. Gra?t gives up the Federal patronage in South Carolina in exchange for the vote of the Sooth Carolina delegation, he encourages the King whom they represent to continue for two years longer their work of disintegration and undoing. - These men have quadrupled the State debt, they have increased taxation tenfold, they are utterly venal and corrupt Mr. Grant abandons South Carolina to them for another term, when he complies with their insoles* request. We are glad that the question has arisen in BO unmistakable a form. Ky Mr. Grant's conduct in this matter, the people will know what to expect. The removal of the present Federal officials in South Carolina and the nomination of the Biog candidates will be accepted, the whole country over, os a for? mal declaration that the President of the United States bas abandoned all claim to personal and official purity, and is ready to sell the patronage of his position to the highest private or public bidder. It will only remain for Mr. Grant to surround the Philadelphia Convention with his soldiery and expel, at the point of the bayonet the delegates whom he cannot bay. The history of the decline and fall of the Republic of Washington and Jefferson will then be com? plete. Charleston and the Drama. The striking success achieved by Jan anschek at the Academy of Music last week effectually disposes of tbe stale charge that the people of Charleston are either unwilling or unable to give a fitting support to the drama. Janauschek came amongst us almost unknown by reputation to the mass of the community. Her engagement, too, occurred at the opening of Lent. Bat she presented sterling plays, and in good style, and in six nights she drew more than six thousand dollars from the pockets of our amusement-eeekere. Let equal attractions be offered, and there is no reason why there should not be equally paying audiences in the Academy nightly, from October until June. Ladles' Mutual Aid Association. It has been suggested to us, by a friend of this useful society, that its modest treasury is in great need of the contributions of the benevolent, and we earnestly solicit for them the aid they require. Donations of money may be Bent either to tbis office or to the depot of the association in Chalmers street. Should there be any unacquainted with the merits of this society, they may easily in? form themselves by inquiring of their friends. Its benefits are extensively diffused, and amongst a class of respectable sufferers who receive no aid in any other way, and who earn mach of what is paid them by needle? work. There is no benevolent institution in the city more happily conceived or better con? ducted, and whose discontinuance would be more painfully and extensively felt We hope a prompt and liberal response will be made to this appeal. Chnrli sion! be Vigilant. [From the Anderson Intelligencer.] The much talked of lease to the Georgia Central Railroad ls not within the range of : probabilities at present, and we think the peo- i [ile of Charleston are not likely to allow any 1 ldverse Interests to control thia important h'ghway of freight and travel, so essential to ( ihe growth and prosperity of their city. Un- ] tiring vigil ince is the price of their advance- * rnent, however, and we would fain hope that ' io lethargic spirit will seize upon their ener? gies lu ihe future, allowing others to reap the j jen tilt ol" their tolls and sacrifices hitherto. < (Ve want to see Charleston lu the van of j Southern cities, and as our principal mart of trude and commerce, we are willing to work ?"or her growth aod enlargement. Proportional Representation. Tne great hall of Cooper Institute, New Fork, was filled on Wednesday night in re- ; jponse to the committee of seventy's call for a . mass meeting, and addresses were delivered . by ex-Mayor Havemeyer, Horace Greeley, General Dix, and others, sustaining the new - shy charter as proposed by the committee, i ttr.'Greeley thus vigorously sustalp^d the in- \ stramenr, and especially that clause of It ' which confers minority representation : . It gives men the power to govern them- , selves, (the new charter.) Hitherto caucuses j have elected; the whole people, never. The ] majority should be represented by a majority, ina the minority by a minority. That ls the only constitutional method. I object to the old system whereby a corrupt majority could elect whomsoever they saw fit. Bad men will ! bargain and buy und sell in politics, while ( good men will not. Under the old system lazy men, men ot property, and men not ot the dominant party stayed away from the polls because they could do no geod. Under the new system, If everybody can't elect every- j body, everybody can elect somebody. [Laugn ter aud applause.] Other speakers were equally pronounced in their views, and the meeting will probably ex? ercise a marked influence upon legislation at i Albany. 1 ?}ost?iUr's Bitters. ~^S^AGGUAVATED INDIGESTION. Persons w JO are predisposed to dyspepsia, and their sufferings from this cause greatly aggravated by damp weather, eaaterly winds, and sudden changes from a mild to a chilling atmosphere. In the spring, therefore, the pangs of indigestion are seriously augmented by the atmospheric varia? tions peculiar to the season, and lt ls incumbent npoo ail who desire to pass through the ordeal of Its cold mists and insalubrious gales with easy stomachs, and untormented by the Indescribable torments which accompany dyspepsia, to tone and strengthen the digestive organs with a health, rul and euecttve vegetable lnvtgorant; and no one at all familiar with the medical record of the age, can question for one moment that I?O?TLTI F.R'? bTOUACH BUTE KS ls th.> Tonic best adapted to this purpose. The credentials of the Great Restorative are un? equalled In number and character by those of any other advertised medicine in the world. If ever there waa a preparation to rank as a Nation al Rem? edy, tais wonderful specific has a fair claim to the title. For a period of twenty years it t as literally been the Champion Tonic and Alterative on thia Bide of the Atlantic. In popularity lt bas never been approached by any of its would-be competi? tors, and Ita annual sales are so far In advance of those of any other medicine of Its class, that com? parisons would be ridiculous. One of two con? clusions is Inevitable. Either the American peo? ple are deficient in common sense, and incapable of rational disci lminatlon, or Hos tetter's Bitters ls the best preventative remedy for Indigestion, fever and ague, bilious remittent fever, constipa? tion, rheumatism, nervous complaints, at.d alt maladies cf au epidemic type. Ihe reader wit) judge for himself which of the two conclusions is mo-t consistent with fact and reason. feb26-mwfSD4C FURNITURE REPAIRED AND RENO? VATED NEATLY, PROMPTLY, AND AT MODERATE RATES, By J.
