Tbe volume 1B I( supposed to have Lsued from the Meudon 11 tannery, where lt ls asserted this kind of lea-11 th er was manufactured during the reign of j 1 terror. 11 -it now appears that in addltlorPto recelv-11 lng pay as an army officer, which was suffi-1. clent to plate -him in easy circumstances, the ( late General Anderson was by marriage one of I, the hoirs to the estate of the late Nicholas ( Longworth, the famous wine manufacturer of Cincinnati, and was, therefore, possessed oil ' great wealth. 11 -The New York Journal o? Commerce!1 thinks that one of the principal objects of tbe Japanese mission to tblB country ls to float ali loan in the American market-In other words, I ; to borrow money of us, Japan, lt says, has j, lately been studying op the mysi?rie? of Mr.i. Boutwei's finance, and lt ls said that she pos sesses a genidB who actually understands the I Bontwelllan system, syndicates and all, and Is I ' anxious to (ry it on Japan. -The figures In the New Tork Journal of 11 Commerce showing the Imports of dry goods I Into that port for the month of February are rather startling. The total lor tbe week Just j ended ls upwards of seven and a quarter mil- j lion dollars foreign gold value, the largest weekly total pf dry goods which ever entered j any port of the United Slates. This brings I tbe aggregate for the month up to seventeen I and a-half million dollars, against fourteen r and a half minions for February of last year, which wah then thought to be very large. -John Brown, Queen Victoria's groom, who j was gosElpped about so scandalously some [ years ego, ls now a d em1.-hero since he rescued 11 her.Majesty from the empty pistol ol an I empty-headed fanatic last week. It will bell remembered that the "Queen's book" made a good many mean people seem very mean in reference ."to that lalihful servant." Since bis conduct on thia remarkable occasion the j press praises him and tbe wcrld feels kin Hy towards him. Truly, If a man walt long be will have his time. -Prussia, lt ls reported, possesses a source of wealth which enables her to conduct wars I without as great sacrifices as have to be borne by less" favored countries. This source of wealth consists In the possession of the means of obtaining a sufficiency of bones. In De? cember, 1867, in the entire kingdem of Pros Bia there were 2,313,817 hones, while ihe pro- j vince of Prussia alone, constituting 18.6 per cent, of the entire area and containing one- j eighth of the pot ula1 ion, had at the same lime j 680,721 hones. Just previous to the Franco German war, tbe average price paid for army ! hones was only $120. -A correspondent who has been on a visit to Chiselhurst says that in the arrangement ol I ^the Imperial household everything ls very I simple, and pre Bents a striking contrast to the j sumptuousness of the Inmates* former days. The Emperor no longer indulges in expensive wines; the table ls humbly served, and ?es toilettes d?collet?es absolutely banished. His I ex-MsJesty keeps only one carriage, and hall a dos? n horses, and the Empress goes out gen? erally on loor. Napoleon III rises early and works hard; be reads all the papers ai ten live? ly. - Ali frivolous pleasures and mundane amusements are forbidden; the Empress has embroidered an ornament for ChlEelburet chapel, and tbe young Prince is being trained like a Spartan. -The pub' lc ibat holds its sides to avoid fatal I effects ot the laughter which the representa- j tlon of ' Paul Pry" Inevitably produces, bas j doubt lea? forgotten all about the au that irresisibly comic /ara, and yet generation might have?njoyed the eec ties of the in trading gentleman with tb hat, the boots and the umbrella in eqi getfuiness, had not Mr. John Poole, a fi ago, quietly left the world he has so amused. The most curious clrcumetan nected with the death of this author-01 adapter, for "Paul Pry," like "Simpson , "De a: as a Post," and others ol Mr works, was translated from the Frei ' that he died from lack of social corni ship. He outlived ail bis contemporary the brilliant society ol which he WSB one most famous lights pass away, and never persevered in the error of outliving his pt Ity. In h I a old age Charles Dickens was h friend, though a kind and constant ou not only secured him a smalipens?o?, bi ried lt-to the superannuated play-wrlgb Bell on quarter-day. In anticipation' ol visits, lt is said that Poole used to dra' long list of subjects on which to coi wlth,hlB famous friend. When Dickem Poole languished for his lost cbmpanlo and Anally testified to the value of his by following him to the grave. But I Poole ls not remembered, "Paul Pry" w yet be forgotten wherever the Eoglie guage is spoken. Tile Financial Agency. The report of the Comptroller-Gei just printed,. con tains a statement c transactions of the Financial Agency o State, during the fiscal year. This is / in fonr separate accounts: First, the ge account of money received and paid b Financial Agent Tor the purposes of the! Government; second, the Agricultural account; third, the State Arms acct fourth, the Land Commission account. 1. Upon the general account a balam $1,267,075 63 is due the Financial Ag which includes the balance transfc from the three special accounts. An the expenditures we find $192,172 57 "interest and commissions on loans, "peaces, express charges, telegrams," It is, however, distinctly stated by Klmpton, in presenting the account, he has not included his commission Financial Agent. As security for the ance of $1,267,075 51, and for "com m isa 4 *aa Financial Agent, "Mr. Kimpton boldf following bonds: Bonds State Sooth Carolina.$4,929 Old State bonds received.203 Sinking Fund bonds. 200 Land Scrip bonds. 191 Blue Ridge Railroad endorsed hodds. 599 Total......$6,122, 2. The Agricultural Land Scrip acco shows that the sale of the scrip, at 72i cet produced $130,500. Of this amount, $1; 192 were invested in Land Commissi bonds, viz: $100,000 at 68, $68,00Q; $91,1 at 67j, $61,652, and $8,000 at 67 J, $5* The expenses were $253, anda balance $54 60 is transferred tb the credit of I State on account No. L 3. The State Arms account shows that 3 bump toa paid out $182,602 66 for S ti inns. To this is added $24,025 02 for j eraet, making the balance against the Sta ?206,627 08. This account clears up sot If the statements of the Radical Joint I restigating Committee on the same subjet 9ae thousand Winchester rifles and am m cition cost $38,275; the remainder of tl amount paid out for arms ($144,327) repr ?nts, we presume, the expense of alterii iie 10,000 Springfield rifles given to tl State by the General Government. . The: inns were thoroughly serviceable, bot it wi determined to convert them into breec caders. Contracts were made with ti Soberts Arms Company for the conversic of 5000 rifles at $8 85; with the Ben ington Arms Company for 5000 i 19; also, with the American Metall! Ammunition Company for one millio cartridges at $37 a thousand. These cot tracts amount to $126,250, but we find tho the payments made by Mr. Eimpton, upo these contracts, amount tb $144,327. Wba oas become of the diff?rence of $18,077 bc tween the amount of the contract and th amount paid? Was it Mr. Pond or Go ver nor Scott who received this commission But the sum of $18,077 is only a small par of the cheat. Mr. Isaiah Woodbury wh< was, at different times, the treasurer of th? Roberts Arms Company and of the Amen can Ammunition Company, made affldavi before the Joint Investigating Committee that his company were famishing cartridge! to other parties at $31 a usand at th< lime that it was agreed to supply them tc the State at $37 a thousand. The committee also show that the price actually paid the Roberts Arms Company was $6 50 a gun, instead of $8 85; and it is doubtful whethei the Remingtons received more than $6 s gun. The American Ammunition Company gave receipts for $37,150 and only received $21,817. These different statements enable as to make an approximate estimate of the stealage in the matter of the State arms : Stealage of $2 35 upon 5000 guns of Roberts Arms Company.$11,750 Stealage of $3 upon 5009 guns of Rem? ington Arms Company.. 15,000 Commissions on one million cartridges, 13,172 Difference between the nominal amount of the three contracts, ($126,250,) and the amount ($144,327) charged the State for conversion of arms and for ammunition-. ;. . : v. :. 18,077 TOTAL STBALAGB.$57,999 We do not pretend to say who are the thieves. Mr. Hampton paid out tbe money upon the order ot his official superiors. The responsibility rests upon those who signed the drafts upon Mr. Eimpton, and upon those who received the money. It is the fashion in the Legislature to deride the report of the Joint Committee, bat it is plain that Comp? troller Neagle substantiates their most dam? aging assertions iL regard to the Sooth Car? olina Arms swindle. 4. The Land Commission account gives in detail the sums of money paid out by the Financial Agent. Among them we rind drafts to the order of Z. B. Oakes amount? ing to $120,752. Ex-Governor Orr received $4,400 and $17,020, and Joe Crews received $4,150. The total expenditures were $648, 855 82, and the interest at 7 per cent, is $63,223 57, making a total of $712,079 19. The whole resources of the Land Commis? sion were $700,000 in State bonds, and if these bonds were sold at an average of 50, which we doubt, the Land Commission have exceeded their means by at least $350,000. And, unless the Land Commission is terribly slandered, the property which it has pur? chased at a cost of $712,079 would not Bell to-day for a hundred thousand dollars. J The WaUree Bridge. ' g We learn that Colonel Wm. M. Shannon and HeBBrs. Clarke and Baom, Special Com? missioners from Kershaw Conn ty, are now in Cbarleston; the object of their visit be? ing to obtain the assistance of the South Carolina Railroad Company ia making ar? rangements for tbe building of a bridge across the Wateree at Camden. Tbe com? missioners are empowered by Act of Assem? bly to issue county bonds and obtain the means required for the work, and, as the construction of the bridge will throw open to the South Carolina Railroad and to Cbarleston a large and wealthy section of Kershaw County, we sincerely hope their mis? sion will prove snccesBfai. We learn that the commissioners met with a cordial recep? tion, and expect to complete the negotia? tion and begin, bnilding at an early day.' An Honest Republican I In the House of Representatives, on Tues? day, Mr. B. A. Bosemoo, one of the colored members from Charleston, made the follow lng manly declaration of his opposition to the Blue Ridge swindle: "lt having been reported to me that certain persons have asserted that my absence from the House, on Saturday, when the veto mes? sage of bia Excellency, relating to tbe act to relieve the State of South Carolina of all liabilities for Its guarantee of the bonds of the Blue Ridge Railroad Company, came up for consideration, arose from a desire to shirk the vote that wonld necessarily ensue. To tb ose who were instrumental in putting this report | In circulation I bave no reply or explanation to make, regarding, as I do, their belief or opinion with supreme indifference. '.For the Information of my friends and con- j slltueDt?, however, I desire to say that my ab? sence from the House, and from the city, was j due to the serious indisposition of a member of my family at my home in Charleston. "In conclusion, I would state that had I been present, I would have voted, as I have ever voted, when soch m?aeureB as the one now re? ferred to were presented to me, viz : with the minority of the members of this House." THE enacting clause of the absurd bill in relation to selling spirituous liquors to habit? ual drunkards, was .stricken ont on Wednes? day. _ ill a rr leo. ROBINSON-CLARK.-By the Rev.
