According lo rotation, he invites each faction of that bedy to dine with him, trust? ing to gastronomy to promote equilibrium. -It to reported that the remainder of the "gang" of outlaws have disappeared from Souffletown, and lt ls thought they have left the country. It ls said that none of them have been seeu since the departure o? henderson, "the Herald representative." -A camel Gatling gun, proposed to be . mounted on the baoksof camels for use in In? dia, to In course of trial by a select committee at Woolwich. It bas ten barrels, each forty two Inch bore, and to sufficiently light to be fired from a tripod fixed on the back of a camel without Inconvenience. '"' -The Journals of St. Petersburg publish some details concerning a type-Bettlcg ma? chine, invented by a Russlau printer, which, they assert, fir surpasses all similar machines that have hitherto been produced. It sets in an hour thirty thousand letters. Its cost ls five thousand rubles, and one thousand letters set by lt costs only five cents. -A distinguished German physician states that small-pox originates from the excess of albuminous matter in the blood, and that this is to be prevented by the administration of common salt. The habit of children Indulging over freely in sweetmeats he considers one great canse of this undue development of al? bumen, and coffee and tea, if highly sugared, tend also to excite lt in adults. ! -The Chinese car te-de-visite is a curiosity. It consists of a huge sheet of bright scarlet paper, with the owner'B name Inscribed in large letters-the bigger the more exquisite. For extra grand occasions this card ls folded ten times, the name ls written In ihe right hand lower corner, with a humiliating prefix like "your very stupid brother," "your un? worthy friend who bows his head and pays his respects," Ac, Ac, the words "your stupid," taking the place of our "yours respectfully." It ls etiquette to return these cards to the visi? tors, it being presumable tbat their expense is too great for general distribution. -The result of the municipal election in St Louis, which occurred on the 2d instant, to of some tigniflcance aa showing the un? popularity of the administration in the West. In 1868, both the city and county were car? ried for Grant by a round majority. This spring not one Bepublican was elected alder? man, and only one was elected to the city council. This single Republican councilman owed his election to his being an anti-Grant man as much as to the fact that he is a highly respected citizen, and a popular official. The administration party was defeated by a ma? jority of nearly four thousand. Three years ago that parly bud entire control of city and county. The vote In detail shows that the German vote in St. Louis Is lost to the admin? istration; heretofore lt has been thrown almost entirely for the Republican candidates. -Croakers who fancy that ibis country Is not advancing in prosperity, are referred to the advance sheets of the ninth census. Those dry looking columns are certainly more elo? quent and conclusive on the points on which they touch than any amount of "spread eagle" oratory. In the first place, they show that the total real and personal property of the United States was $30,008,518,607 in 1870, as again* t $16,159,616,068 in 1860, and $7,136,780, 228 In 1850. The percentage of increase in wealth during the last decade is found by cal? culation to have been over eighty-six per cent., notwithstanding the immense diversion ot productive energy and the enormous de? struction of property consequent upon the war. New York State, where both agriculture and commerce are greater Interests than manufacture?, gained iwo hundred and fifty two per cent, rn wealth during the last decade, and only seventy per cent, in the former one. -The report of the judiciary committee of .the New York Bar Association, which bas been pressing the investigation Into the conduct of Judges Barnard and Cardoza, sajB that al though no direct pecuniary bribes are expect? ed to be found, still they had traced presents received from ' successful litigants and politi? cal favorites. The power to iBsue lnjunc.lons, appoint relerees, receivers, and make allow? ances, the committee Btates, ba9 enriched favorites, regardless of damage to other parties. They instance the case of Jamee Fisk against the Union Pacific Railroad, which caused the loss of five millions of dollars to the company, Judge Barnard boasting of the terror the order created. Another was the black Friday case, wherein Barnard compelled the Bank of New York, then insolvent, to pay all its assets, amounting to $400,000, to brokers of Fisk, Gould & Co., and $15,000 to a receiver of his own appoint? ment, leaving the other creditors without a cent. The justification for this act is that the plaintiff and bank officers consent id to it, but the bank officers say consent was wrung from them, and the bank suffered a loss of between $200,000 and $300,000 within forty days. The suit of the English stockholders of Bi ie against Fisk & Gould, !n which John H. Coleman was appointed receiver, !s another case. Within one hour after this suit one Robinson, keeper of the Erle Company's cattle yards io Jersey, was appointed receiver in return for a loan ot $3000, which he gave to Judge Barnard in a check of Jay Gould, and which Barnard gave to Coleman for some land speculation. Judge Barnard also appointed a manager for a rail? road eight hundred miles long, running through three Western State?, and the result was a loan of $2,000,000, from wbich the road has never recovered. The Ka-KlDX Cases in the Supreme Court. It will be Been by oar special telegraphic dispatches from Washington that the argu? ment upon tbe appeal to the Supreme Court, in one of tbe Ku-Ktux cases, was com? menced by Mr. Stanbery yesterday. The two main points of tbe argument were that the Enforcement act, while it might be con? strued as giving jurisdiction in these cases to the District Court, did not confer such jurisdiction upon the Circuit Court, and that Congress bad in the passage of the Enforce? ment act exceeded the power entrusted to it Dy that clause ol the Fifteenth amendment which authorizes "appropriate legislation" to prevent discrimination in the law of suf rage "on account of race, color or previous "condition pf servitude." About Good Faith! As we have said before, we deem a Com- < promise at the State elections inevitable ?'Buch a Compromise as is implied in leav- ; "ing Democracy in the background, and "devoting all our time and energy to the "election of honest and capable men, what? ever their politics, their place of nativity, i "or the color of their skin." To this state? ment, the Columbia Union makes the fol- i lowing reply: "How do they help Republicans elect their best men to office ? Why, by abusing them as soon as one ls nominated, whom Bepubll cans are unfortunate enough to believe a good man. The Democracy are the sole Judges in s-ch cases, as they were here only a few dajB since. The moment the Republicans put a man In nomination whom they believe to be upright, faithful, efficient and honest, that moment the Democratic press ass ills him as a thief, a dishonest man, a swindler or a 'car 'pet-bagger.' Toe last clause In the foregoing extract from THIS NEWS sounds very well, but, when the time comes to give it a practical Illustration, that moment the Democratic par? ty forgets that lt ever made any such promise. Like Paddy's flea, you put your floger on him and he isn't there. It ls useless to attempt to hoodwink or mislead the colored people any longer. They have Been enough already to convince them of the Insincerity ot the party wbich promises them so much. Actions speak louder than words, and they have waited patiently, but In vain, through seven long years for these acts, while they have had a surfeit of honeyed words and fine-spun theories." All this, as far as we know Ihe facts, is conspicuously inexact. We fail to remember a single instance in which the Democrats denounced an "upright, faithful, efficient "and honest" man, asa "thief, a swindler "and a carpet-bagger." We do not think that the Union can point out a solitary case in wbich the promises of the white people to the colored citizens have, been broken ; and if it could do so, the isolated fault would not convict the whites of systematic decep? tion. Wherever the colored people have given tho whites a trial, by working harmo? niously with them, they have been thorough? ly convinced that we make no pledge which will not, as far as is possible, be faithfully fulfilled. But this is outside of the question, and does not meet the point at issue. The conservative people ol the State are disin? clined to make Party nominations. As a State party they will, in all probability, with? draw from the canvass, making the best arrangements they can in the several coun? ties. They refuse to become Republicans themselves, and they do not ask the Repub? licans to become skin deep Democrats. Their proposition to the dominant-party is sub? stantially this: "Nominate capable and bon "est men, Republicans ii you will; and, as "a party, we will not oppose them. Where "a bad ticket is nominated, put a second "Republican ticket in the field, with good "names on it, and we will help you to elect "that ticket." We do not see that there is any room for foul play in this. And if the better element in the Republican party means what it says, we*shall have an opportunity of proving our faith. The white people of Charleston voted for Republicans at the mu? nicipal election ; and they will do the same thing again, if the right kind of Republi? cans seek their suffrages. The Cincinnati Convention. There is a striking difference between the political utterances of the New York World and the New York Tribune. The former paper has hardly made up its mind yet whether it will, or will not, give the cold shoulder to the Cincinnati Convention. It shifts all round the compass in the course of forty-eight hours, and when boldest, pro? tects itself by an array of "ifs" and "buts," in the way with which the epistolatory vati? cinations of Lieutenant-Governor Ransier have made this public familiar. The Tri? bune, on the contrary, has a fixed and set? tled policy, and leaves no one of its readers in doubt as to its position. Its masculine enunciations are not always to our taste; but we know where it stands, which is more than any outsider ventures to say of its Democratic rival. Upon . two occasions, within the last fortnight, Mr. Greeley has 6poken plainly and to the purpose. In the circular letter whlch.be signed, he gave bis earnest approval to the Cincinnati Conven? tion, and announced bis willingness to sup? port tbat body upon a platform made np of Amnesty, Civil Service Reform, a tarif! for Revenne,and the restoration of the right of lo? cal self-government And now be marks out, with even sharper distinctness, the course which the Tribune will take in the Presi? dential canvass. Mr. Greeley says: "1. If there shall be Democratic candidates for President and vice-President in the field, we purpose to support that Republican ticket wbich seems most likely to succeed. "2. If the main issue In the canvass shall be Protection against Free Trade, we shall (no matter as to the candidates) be found on the side of Protection. "3. Bul if (as we hope and expect) there shall be two Republican tickets, and none other, presented with any hope of success, we shall favor that one whose election will be, in our judgment, most likely to promote econo? my in public expenditure, purity in legislation and In administration, substantial unanimity In upholding for all citizens a complete equal? ity of rights under the law, and hasten the re? turn of fraternal concord and mutual gosd will between these who were arrayed against each other in sanguinary strife throughout our great Civil War. "Such ls our position ; and it will not be af? fected by the nomination ol A or B, C or D, at Cincinnati, Philadelphia, or elsewhere." This is all that we have a right to expect. Mr. Greeley is a Protectionist by conviction, and he will not support any organization which makes Free Trade the main issue in the canvass. But all Democrats are not Free Traders, am! all Republicans are not Pi.'eciionist8. The question of the tariff is one npon wbich the battle should not be fought-cannot be fought successfully. It will settle itself in course of time; experience and the spread of information will kill Pro? tection more effectually than a political con? test could do. Nor could we expect that Mr. Greeley, a staunch Republican, would support a Btraigbt Democratic ticket against a straight Republican ticket. Upon all material points, he is in full accord with the Liberal Republicans and with the Lib? eral Democrats. They alike demand economy in public expenditure, purity in legislation and administration, a complete equality of all citizens before the law, and a return of fraternal concord and good will. Upon such a platform, and, wjth candidates representing those opinions, the Cincinnati Convention will, we doubt not receive the enthusiastic support of all honest citizens who are not actual or prospective office? holders. We desire, however, to impress one fact' apon the leaders in the Cincinnati Conven? tion. If they truly desire the defeat of Grant, and the Buccess of the liberal move? ment they must not ask too much from their expected allies. This is a common cause, and the Democrats are willing to give way upon immaterial points if the Republicans will do the same. Forbearance and Conces? sion should govern the connells of the Con? vention ; for, if tbat body adopt a platform similar to that contained in Mr. Greeley's letter, and nominate, besides, candidates whom the Democrats can cheerfully accept, the defeat of President Grant at the polls will be both quick and thorough. _ As the first of May draws nigh, the public interest in tbe Cincinnati Convention grows deeper. The Democracy have done nothing to embarrass tbe Convention. They await its action with the earnest hope that it may lead to the organized co-operation of all worthy citizens for the purpose of achieving the redemption of the Republic from the evil bands into which il has lallen. An Olive Branch. (From tbe Columbia Union, of Friday.] Tnt; NEWS of yesterday says some sensible tbtngs in speaking of the present condition of South Carolina ; but' the trouble ls, and has been from the start, that what is said in ihe newspapers amounts to absolutely nothing, when a practical test is made. Now we are quite well aware that Republicans have done many things in this Stale which the party, as a party, could not, and would not endorse. Individual Republicans, like individual Demo? crats, have been guilty of many things that the party would not sanction ; and when we have protested against such acts, no matter by whom committed, THE NEWS, and other journals of ihe same faith, have seen fit to suspect our motives, and taunt us with insin? cerity, Ac THE NEWS says : "The parly which the Columbia Union rep? resents can remedy our worst evils. We do not ask them to surrender their advantages, or to place ihe Government In Democratic nands. It ls Immaterial lo the vast majority of the people whetber|the State Government ls Ruli cul or Democratic-provided thal it be capable and honest. The white citlzeus are not dis? posed, we Judge, tu hamper the Republicans by making party nominations. Tnls time it will not be posslole to throwley blame upon the Democratic voters. The Republlcaosthave tull sway, and upon them and theirs the whole responsibility rests. We can and will help them-ll they will put up candidates for whom the taxpayers may Baleiy vote." The Republicans can, as THE NEWS Ears, "remedy our worst evils ;" but they can de lt only In one way, and that is by selecting a bet? ter class of men to fill positions of honor and .trust, both lu our State und Municipal Govern- ? ments. But the trouble ls, that when.we at? tempt anything of this kind, TUE NEWS and all its coadjutors throw cold water upon the effort, and iefuse to assist in any way. If we nominate men against whose character not one word can be truthfully said, the cry of "carpet-bagger" Is raised. THE NEWS, and olher Democratic newspapers, can do much toward correcting this senliment, and until that ls done it ls useless to talk to Republi? cans about strict party measures.

Numerous testimonia s have been sent us from many of our moat promi? nent c.tlzenB, some ef which are subjoined. In everything in which the articles now In use are objectionable, CRYSTAL DISCOVERY ls perfect. It ls warranted to coutalu neither Sogar of Lead, Sulphur or Nitrate of Silver, lt does not soil tile clothes or scalp, ls agreeably perfumed, and makes one or theist dressings for the Hair In use. It restores the color of the Hair "mord per feet and uniformly than any other preparation," and always does so in from three to .ten days, virtually feeding the roots of the Hair with all the nourishing qaalltles necessary to its giowth and healthy condition; lt restores the decayed and induces a new growth of the Hair more posi? tively than anything else.
