SIMMONS, Jr., ia the travelling agent for THE NEWS, fer South Carolina, _ SEWS OE THE DAT. -Gold closed yesterday at 10J. -The New York cotton market closed dull; uplands 23$ cents; sales 1357 bales. -In Llverpeol cotton closed quiet; uplands ll jd, Orleans li id; the sales amounted to 15,000 balee. -New York consom?s 90,000,000 gallons of water dally. -There are said to be nearly two thousand zag pickers in the streetB ol New York. -An artesian well bas been Ennk twelve hundred feet in Chicago before Anding water. -One of the rules of the new English drees reform 1B to wear a dress until lt ls worn out. -A new style of coffee pot has a little steam whistle attached which warns people when the coffee ls ready. -Birmingham, England, is said to have sent so many sham diamonds to the African diamond field that the value of the real ariicle ls depressed. " -The Suez.Canal receipts are increasing at a gratifying rate. The receipts in January were nearly double those In the same month last year. -The extreme cold of the past winter in Paris has been more Intense than has been known for a century, and great sufferings were caused by lt among the poor. -Austria ls engaged in an effort to attract to Itself the emigration of laborers and skilled workmen from Germany, which usually seeks thia country. -A man In New York recently bled to death after having five teeth extracted. Every effort _ was made to stop the bleeding of the gumB, but proved fruitless, and the patient gradually died from exhaustion. -Persons who have recently travelled through Russia say that that country resem? bles more'a vast camp than a nation on a peace fooling. Soldiers abound In all direc? tions, and the greatest military activity pre vails. t -The trials of Communis' s still continue at Versailles. The last batch brought before a military tribunal In that city consists ot twen? ty-three persons who are accused of the a8???s slnation of forty-seven gendarmes and priests In the Rue Haxo, on the 26tb of May. .-Paris correspondents write that "ladles of the great world wear now at the balls a mourning toilette, composed of ? black silk dress, ornamented with white lace and red rosee, and diamond tears in ihe bair." Over? flowing grief in this style costs from five lo ten thousand dollars. -The health officer of Liverpool should be named Dogberry. He thinks a small-pox epi? demic directly lessens the number of those who will in future be susceptible lo attacks of the disease. This is good. It certainly does so, by the number ot those who ole of the epi? demic, whatever may be thought of those who have small-pox and survive. The suscepti? bility of the dead victims ls strikingly dimin? ished. -Frau Mallinger, who had a fight recently with Lucca, has conseated to renew her en? gagement at the Berlin Court Theatre on con? dition of a life-long engagement, leave of absence at any time during the season, two hundred and fifty thalers for every appear? ance on the stage, and eight performances guaranteed for every month, and a pension o? 2500 thaiers, and 10,000 thalers paid in ad? vance. Modest. -Among the lucky ones in the last Erie peculiarity are clerks, laborlog men and ladles. One young lady added three thousand dollars to her fortune In twenty-fyur hours. A shipping clerk ri.-ked his all, and made lour thousand seven hundred dollars Tuesday af? ternoon. All this would be good fortune were it not lor the fact that these people will imme? diately give up their legitimate buslnes?, and, seeking further succ?s?, find themselves in a short lime penniless and indisposed to do BO little as an hour's hard, honest work. -Marshal McMahon, like Damon, hus Just ^sacrificed himself on the altar of lriendship, in testifying recently that he alone was responsi? ble for the movements of the French army in tbe late war after it lett Chalons and prior to Sedan. He said that Louis Napoleon was in no way responsible for the disasters .that fol? lowed. Naturally enough, a grea*. sensation was caused la court by this avowal, as the ex-Emperor has generally been held responsi? ble previously lor the movements that resulted j In the capitulation of Sedan. -The Boston Pilot (IrlBh Catholic) makes In the last number a very graceful tender of the olive branch to its Orange (Irish Protes? tant) neighbors. After alluding to the fact that the Pilot office was draped on St. Pattlck's day, "not In green alone, but inlwined wreath, and flags and streamers ot orange and green," lt says: "Here is an offer to our fellow-coun? trymen. Let them carry green in their pro cessions-it ls their color as well as ours. Let ns twine them together and never hold them apart. Let their folds rustle and wreath and clasp each other at the wind's bidding, and as all such intercourse must end, theirs will end in love. Let us kill our old bad leellnz and wrap its corpse ia a green and orange shroud, and bury It out of sight forever." _^ -Some European correspondent, in the course OT 'bis ramblings up Hnd down, Las recently allowed his footsteps to tend toward The stately but now descried palace of Mi ta? mar, ueur Trieste, where the ill-staired Maxi? milian and Carlotta passed so many happy days bef?te the Mexicun mirage arose bet?re their bewildered right. Situated in one of Um loveliest spots on the face ot the earth, at the bead ot the blue Adriatic, and lurnlshed with every comfort and luxury that money could procure or a cultivated taste desire, the palace of Miramar is even now, when all its associates are so sad und gloomy, a miracle of beauty and grandeur and very attractive to the tourist. The grounds and gardens are kept wiih the same scrupulous care J as In former days. Taciturn and meian choly domestics take the usual charge of the apartments and exhibit their mournful splen? dors. Mammoth oaken doors open into re? sounding and armor clad halls. Through the plate windows delicious views of Trieste and the surrounding country are obtained. Clus? ters of antique weapons, groups of portraits, vast libraries, marble busts, and magnificent, massive furniture meet the eye at every step. The visitor ls shown the .'cabin,*'or favorite room of the Archduke, with its pendant lamps, small windows, writing-desks and wine-glass? es intact; the throne-room, with Hs bronze chandeliers, and the private chambers of the ' noble couple; and, as he emerges, he cannot I but dwell with sadness upon the fate by which so conspicuous an instance of domestic bliss as this palace witnesses Ic years gone by was terminated by an ignoble execution and ago j nlzing insanity. "Oar Natural Leude rn!" A correspondent who deplores "the inac? tion and supineness which pervade the "State, at a time when energetic action 'alone can save us," suggests that this con? dition of things is caused by the "fatal in? action of our old men," who are "our natu? ral leaders, and have always impressed the "policy of inaction" upon the people. -We agree with oar correspondent that we have been miserably deficient in sagacity of plan and energy of action ; but we do not I think it right to throw the whol.' r esponsi-1 bility upon the bended backs of the "natu .ral leade-s" or this people. They did their best Their policy was before the public; and they who thought that policy either timid or unwise had full opportunity ol stating their objections and. proposing a line of condact botter calculated to promote political regeneration and material prosper! ty. The silence of the younger men was the sign of their assent. And if they coal;! have done more, and done better, than our "nat? ural leaders" have done, the blame is upon the you::j men who had not the indepen? dence of mind to say what they thought [Again and again, daring these troubled 1 years, have we cried : Oh ! for an hour of our dead Dundee I And yet we know, and see, that reverence for age and experience goes too far when it prevents any man, or any set of men, from saying and writing exactly what they hon? estly think. We want to see the fullest I freedom of opinion-in practice as well as 1 in theory. AU the wisdom of tbe universe is not contained in the head of any one man, however much of a "natural leaucr be may I be. We look to the young and untried men for the redemption of the State. Bat until they show that they have learned the first lesson of trae patriotism-that of fearlessly expressing, at ail times, their honest con? victions-they cannot be useful workers for tbe public good. There is nothing more healthful for a community than free discus? sion and independent criticism. When will the young men make a beginning, and prove the metal of which they are made? The Cotton Outlook. The shortness of the cotton crop of 1871-72, as compared with the.four and a quarter million bales of the preening year, has caused the price of the staple to rule high during the winter. It is believed that there is very little cotton left ic the country, and quotations would undoubtedly advance still further, only that it was thought that the crop of next year, under the iniluence of the large pi eilis of the present season, might even exceed the crop of two years ago. The planters will undoubtedly endeavor to muke a large crop of cotton ; but their success will mainly depend upon the char? acter of the seasons and the efficiency of their laboring force. There is no question that the area planted in cotton will be greater than the area planted last year. We have, at present, no means of estimating the percentage of increase. Aud against the effects of that increased area must beset the unfavorable nature of the spring. The planters in this State, at least, are extreme? ly late with their work ; "many of them being a month or more behind time. This should go far to neutralize the gains expected from the additional acreage. Beyond this fact we have no precise and definite information in regard to the crop prosp?ct-excepting always the salient fact that there has been a startling increase in the consumption of com? mercial fertilizers. The following is a com? parative statement or tbe number of tons of fertilizers transported by the South Carolina Railroad Company, to all points, during the first quarter or the past three years : 1870. 1871. 1872. Tons. Tons. Tons. January. 7.027 3.61C 7,234 February.10.351 4.809 8,354 March.12,425 5,763 0,925 Total.29,803 14,188 25^513 This table show3 that the quantity of fer? tilizers sent forward in three months or 1871 was less than one-hair of the quantity sent forward in the large crop year, 1870; while the shipments in 1S72 are very nearly equal to the shipments of 1870. And we are dis? posed to believe that even this increase does not indicate the full difference between this season and last season. At Ike close of the season of 1870-1871 thousands or tons or fertilizers lay unsold in the depots through? out the country. We know of one agent in the interier of this State who had 3000 tons in store when the season opened. Th6 dealers, with the costly experience of 1871 before them, have been slow to order fresh supplies; and it is fair to suppose that the consumption of fertilizers this Beason in? cludes the quantities already in store as well as pretty nearly the whole of the shipments of 1872. At the same tine it should be re? membered that the increased production of fertilizers in Charleston, and the success achieved by Charleston in obtaining more than her usual proportion of the shipments from the North to Southern ports, prevent us from accepting the shipments of fertili? zers from Charleston to tbe interior as an unerring indication of the rates of consump? tion throughout the South. Ic would re? quire similar reports of the shipments from and to other ports, as well as overland, to make the statement complete. It is too early to make estimates of the crop of 1872-73. We shall gather together and publish whatever information upon the subject we can obtain, and leave the public lo draw their own conclusions. A SIGNIFICANT political straw i? afforded in the sudden change of rront or tho New York World towards the Liberal Republican movement. We reproduce Us article iu another column. New Books. TROIS AS STEEL. A Novel. By Marlon Har? land, author of Nemesis, As. New York: G. W. Carleton & Co. 1872. Charleston: Holmes's Book House. In style and treatment, in Its faults as well as good points, this novel ls very much like its predecessors. We wish, however, that the author would make the speech of her heroine's less energetic. It is well enough to "put ?'things strongly," but a young girl who has .blood, intellect, education and opportunity" might wisely refrain from declaring that if a man whom ehe despises had bis deBerts "he "would be whipped by the hangman, then "have h!s false tongue slit." Miss Harland has always had a large circle of readers, and thoBe who admire "Alone" and the "Hidden "Path," will be pleased with "True as Steel." Cloth, pp. 350. Price $1 50. THE SEVENTH YUL : OR THE TIME OF TROUBLE BEGUN. AS shown in the Great War, the De? thronement of the Pope, and other Collate? ral Events. By Rev. John Cummlne, D. D., F. R. 8. E., &c. New York: G. W. Carleton & Co., Publishers. 1872. We have given leBS than half of the sensa? tional lille page, which the publishers (for surely the aulhor could, not have been con? sulted) have assigned to Dr. Cummiog's re? markable book on the prophecies. In an age BO greedy of novelty as ours, a production so strange and startling does not need the pref? ace of an advertisement. Dr. Cumming maintains tbat the prophecies symbolized by the Seventh Vial (of Rev. 16) are now in tbe course of fulfilment. He re? gards the overthrow of the French Empire, the unification of Italy, the supremacy of Ger? many, the Intrigues of Russia and the tremen? dous volcanic and other convulsions which have disturbed the material world during re? sent years, as "the footfalls ol the coming "Lord." To these signs he adds "the opposi? tions of science falsely so-called," and the chaotic condition of political affairs among [he nations. Tbe late wars in Europe inau? gurated the battle (or wa. ; of Armageddon. "The Great Earthquake" is the subversion of the European system. "The Northern Hall" is the sweeping storm of Russian Invasion, which IB soon to descend Southward toward Palestine. The Jews are about to return to their own land. The European Continent will be apportioned into three Kingdoms. And so the devout dreamer dreams on and on. We do not care to question the sincerity of the author when he insists that he has no pet theory to maintain. We ourselves have none. We can even admire the dexterity with which ie subsidises contemporaneous events to his jurpose, yet we are not the less convinced hat the work ls due to a foregone conclu" lion. Nothing else could bave evolved from Ive or six vorses, charged with prophetic Igure and symbol, a modern history of Eu ope. And we may add that we regard such a vork as likely to produce an unhealthy in lueaceupon the religious public. The pre? diction of^m Impending world Judgment is ikely to produce a feverish agitation unfavor? able to tbe equanimity of the Christian char icter and to tbe quiet pursuit of the duties of ecu'ar life. The man best prepared for the uture ls not the doughty controversialist Tho launches doubtful texts against kings ind churches, but the faithful servant who ls bund standing at his pout when "the heavens .lall." tjostettcr's Sitters. ??TPLAIN WORDS FOR THE PEOPLE.
