"Row to get a divorce" is-tne favorite in Chicago. ' -The members of a family named Bprlnger I havelaken heart of grace from tte example of Mrs. Gaines in New Orleans, and put in their claim for $80,00O',OOO worth Ol real estate in the City of Wilmington, Del. -The Dolly Varden ls simply bunched-up overdress, cut in antique style, and made of j any flowered material which most resembles I old-.'ashlon chintz bedroom furniture. -It is stated that forty thousand women of Alsace and Lorraine have addressed a petition I : to Prince Bismarck, in which they ask that i ? their father* and sons be exempted from ser-1. vice-in the German army for a few years. -The ex-Queen of Spain, Donna Isabella, j has been defeated In the French courts ina I ault bro us ht by ioma Paris Jewellers to re? cover o ne hundred and sixty-one thousand I' fran c? for trinkets she bad bought and refused I to pay for. 11 -The -citterns of Richmond, Virginia, are j taking active measures toward the erection I j of aUrBt-ciass-hotel in that city. A meeting |> was-held on Wednesday night, when lt ap-1 ( peared that over one hundred thousand dol-1, lars .were pledged for the project. It will probably be built on\he site or the old Spots- 11 wood. I1 -A very unfortunate Missourian went to a J( masked ball, .danced several times with .a j : charming domino, and Anally proposed an j < elopement, which was agreed to. After thu j < flight, he discovered to his horror that the I ? lady was his wile. Those dealing in hair re- I j newera, plaster and poultices would do well to j j call at his bouse. j . -Mr. Livingstone, an Indiana convict, Dav- ( lng a desire to regain his lioerty, fastened j ' himself In a bcx and was carried out of jaU. I -1 Unluckily, however, the box was laid on the < grouncrhead downward, and the convict's feet I ( -instead of his head pointed toward the zenith, j Being unable to extricate himself, he began ( to howl for assistance, and was soon escorted to his former apar t me n t. J, -^9ae of the results of the conflicting evl- j dence cn the trial pf Mrs. Wharton for poison- j lng General Ketchum, is the granting of a L new trial to Dr. Schoeppe, of Pennsylvania, j convicted of the murder ol Miss Steinecke by ( poison. It has been demonstrated that "ex- l JD.'rb" may easily be mistaken as to the proofs \ of death by poison, and hence lt ls very likely \ that Dr. Echoeppe oe bis new trial, to take I j place in Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, ( commencing on the 28lh ins-ant, will be ac- I quitted. I j -At the Roman. Catholic Cathedral, in L Rochester, N. Y., on Sunday, the 7th Instant, ? Bishop MiQuaid Informed bis people that here- < after not more than twelve hacks would be L allowed in a funeral, procession. - Those who ? came with a greater equipage would And the , cemetery gates locked. Nor would funerals ; be allowed ou Sunday If they could be con- ; ven le ntly an uti ged for another day. Priests j will not be permitted in funeral discourses to j < Indulge ia any eulogy of the deceased. Those ? Who did not like tr?ese regulations, the Bishop . said, might have their funerals eutside the 11 walls of the church. j j _.\-Says the Cincinnati Enquirer: "There is 11 again talk that ex-President Andrew Johnson ? will be elected lo the. next Congress from one i ? of the East Tennessee districts. He is In the j ? prime of life-ls too ambitious in character I \ and aggressive in disposition-has ton many j old resent men's which he wlshts to gratify- j j to permit bim to remain permanently out ol I j pub'.lc Ult?. The statement which has been j made that no omer President ever took any ( other position after retiring from the presl- i dency is a gross error." The Enquirer goes on | to cite the casos.of Presidents Washington, L . Adams, MadlsDn, Monroe, John Quincy i Adams, Van Buren, Tyler and Fillmore, all of . whom either served In public station or were : prominent in political life after retiring from , the presidency. " j ( -The American press generally seem to I ( regard the sentence of the insane youth. Ar- ; thur O'Connor, for frightening the Queen of J i England, as unnecessarily harsh, In view of j the circumstances. Aside from the unim- | peached testimony given at the trial, tending , to show the Insanity ol the prisoner, the very t tact that he assailed the Queen in a carriage ? with an unloaded pistol, and demanded her to ? sign a document which, signed or unsigned, j, would have been equally worthless, is suf- J Aclent evidence of Ids irresponsible condition mentally. In this connection the case of the ' laborer, who snapped two pistols close to the 1 breastofGeneral Jackton, is recalled. The I man was adjudged lusaue, because he could i have.gained no possible advantage by theil President's death. Queen Victoria now has \ an opportunity of exhibiting ber magnanimity , by remitting the sentence Imposed upon her ( Crazy assailant. . -In the British House of Commons, on Fri day. Cochrane denounced the International [ Society, an 1 s verted that the orders to burn 1 Paris and inaasave the hostages held by the J ' Commune emanated from the central body of I the Internationale in London. He demanded j that tb? government respect the representa? tions of other powers, that England was the asylum of Internationalists. Eastwick also protested against allowing England to become the refuge ol the political agitators of the world. He characterized the publications o? the International Society as revolutionary and blasphemous, and declared th^m liable to suppression under law,. Henry Fawcett defended the society. Its principles were not revolutionary. It was designed to protect women and children in the factories, and de? stroy monopolies. Other members spoke In defence of trades' onions, with which, lt was charged, the International Society was allied. The City Debt Case. The case of Alva Gage and others against the City Connell, Involving the right of the City Council to levy taxes for the payment of the interest and principal of the city debt | contracted, many years ago, in aid of rail? road companies, was dismissed yesterday by Judge Graham. It has always been very clear to ns that the holders of the city stocks affected by this case could not, with justice, be stripped of their property because of any supposed shortcomings on the part of some bye-gone City Council. The subscriptions to the railroad companies, when made, were believed to be for the good ol the city; the interest was regularly paid as it fell due; there was no protest or objection of which we have heard. And there would have been no attempt, at this time, to shake off the railroad debt, only that the results of the war have made the total city debt extremely hard to carry. We are as anxious as any one can be to lighten the burden of taxa? tion; but any relief obtained at the price of | the good faith and financial integrity of the city would be dearly bought. This may not j be the legal view of the subject; bot it is old- [ fashioned honesty, all the same. The' Cine i a nat J Convention. At the time of the organization of the j Beform party in South karolina, two years ago, we ventured to i JKBB the opinion that the example then set would be follow? ed in other States, and that, all the country over, the faithful citizens of the Republic would be found banding themselves together j for the purification c" the government It j is trne that the Reform movement in this j State was a failure; partly because or the J frauds at the polls and in canvassing the ? vote, and partly because the Democracy themselves nominated a gubernatorial can? didate, instead of contenting themselves with sustaining any liberal and capable man who might have been nominated by the Re? form Republicans. But the Conservative movement in Virginia bad been splendidly successful; the Liberal Republicans of Mis? souri, with the aid of the Conservative J Democrats, won a grand victory for Am? nesty and Beform, and in this Palmetto j State public opinion waa BO ripened and strengthened that the people are ready to? day to co-operate with any body of citizens who are honestly desirous of giving the Com? monwealth a puro and frugal government. The Democrats of South Carolina will not become members of the Republican party. Their aims and purposes are higher than these of mere politicians. They do not seek office. They demand intelligent and ?qual legislation. They demand the cleans? ing of the public service from the corruption pr the ignorance which extends from the :hief places to those of least moment They demand, the reduction of the public expenses to the lowest point, and the faith ul collection and distribution of the moneys )f the Stale. And what the Democratic ninority demand in South Carolina, the Liberal Republicans strive for in the North tnd West In these glowing words, Senator Carl Schurz, at the New York meeting, ex? plained the objects of the Liberal Republi? can movement: "We shall rally for a common effort those vhose convictions ol duty are net at the dis? posal of personal or party dictation. We shall nslst and take good care that none of tbe ogical and legitimate results of the war be mperllled; that the settlement of past differ? ences, as embodied in the constitution, be nalntalned; that the equality of human rights >e held inviolable; that the national creditors )e assured their dues to the utmost farthing. 3ut we shall insist, also, whatever the behests >f those who attempt to rule us, that those vbom we have overcome In the civil war itali be treated with a policy of Impartial Jus" .ice, appealing to the best impulsea of human nature; we shall insist upon the employment )f those legal and moral agencies, which are calculated to revive fraternal feeling among ?ll the people, and a patriotic spirit of nation? ality throughout the land; we shall Insist that the Hag of this Republic wave over all its Citi? zens as the symbol of equal rights and equal protection; we shall insist that the robbers be discountenanced who suck the marrow of the Southern people, under whatever party name they may do lt; we shall insist that corruption be orushed wherever it may appear; we shall insist that the people be relieved of unneces? sary burdens, and all forms of odious oppres? sion; we shall lasist that ours is a conBiltution il government, whose fundamental principles ind established forms must be sacredly main? lined at any cost, and whose laws, constitu? tionally framed, are higher authority tban the pleasure ot any man or any party ; we shall nsist that the self-government of the people, :he very foundation of republican Institutions, ?hall be kept Inviolate In its legitimate sphere : ?ve shall insist that the insidious and unconsti? tutional intermeddling of lhe central power with local concerne and individual rights shall ae stopped ; we shall Insist that the publ'c Ber? nice of the country ls instituted for the com? mon benefit of all the people, and nothing else, and that it must cease to bea slavish ma? chinery to partisan Interest or the aspirations of personal government ; we shall insist that the dangerous and unrepubllcan system be broken down by which the will of factions or men in power can Impose itself upon the masses of the people ; we shall insist that j avery public servant shall be held to a strict account under the laws of tbe eountry ; we shall insist that there shall be no slavery nor involuntary servitude in this country, neither moral nor physical." This is a platform npon which the citizens pf South Carolina may safely stand-one which they can cordially and cheerfully sus? tain. And if the Cincinnati Convention move upon this line, and the National De-1 mocracy refrain from committing the error j which mainly caused the defeat of the South Carolina Reformers in 1870, a vote will be mst in South Carolina for the candidates of the Cincinnati Convention which will aston? ish the men who believe that there is noth? ing left of life or of energy in this persecu? ted bot hopeful State. We may expect, cf course, that an effort will be made to stigmatize as traitors all Re? publicana who feel that there is nothing to be hoped for from the Grant party, and who are ready, therefore, to fight with Greeley, and Schurz, and Trumball and Fenton and their colleagues under the banner of Amnes? ty, Anti-Centralization, Purification and Revenue and Civil Service Reform. But what will the organs of the administration be able to accomplish when they endeavor to blacken the character of a man like Schurz, who wore the Federal uniform with distinction, and has always been a staunch Republican ? This one upright statesman has more supporters in the mighty West than the combined apologists of the admin? istration. What can the Grant party say against a man like Lyman Trumbull, who stoutly battled for bia party until he saw that ita ruling spirits were driving the coun? try headlong to a centralized despotism ? What can they say against the Greeley s and Fentons who were leaders in the Republican party when President Grant was still in ob? scurity? It is absurd to talk of it Sixty thonBand office-holders have immense power, but they cannot control a people who know their danger and see their opportunity. The confidence of thoughtful patriotic men in the Cincinnati Convention is stronger every hour. Only a recalcitrancy on the part of ita leaders, which we have no canse to expect, and a wrongheadedness on the part of the Democracy, which we have little reason to fear, can prevent it from naming men whom all the opposition can vote for, and who shall then be triumphantly elected. IN ANSWER to several correspondents, we oeg to Bay that the charge of twenty-five cents for Issuing a license is expressly au? thorized by Section 15 of the License law, which Bays tbat the county auditor "shall "receive the sum of twenty-five cents from "the person, company or corporation receiv? ing the 6ame, as compensation for taking "the returns and iesuiog the license provid? ed for in thia act" ? WASHINGTON dispatch to the Baltimore Sun says that a delegation of colored men ?rom South Carolina are in town nrging the President to remove the Federal officials at Charleston. Thia is the office-holding party who agreed, at the State Radical Conven? tion, to warn President Grant that he must make a clean sweep of the respectable offi? cials in thia State, if he desired to be voted for by the Sooth Carolina delegates'to the Philadelphia Convention. This is a favor? able opportunity for getting seven votes cheap ! _ THE Columbia Onion triumphantly prints the number of votes cast by the Democrats for the colored candidates at the Colombia elections as a proof that the white people of the State do break the promises which they make to the colored citizens. There waa no Democratic ticket In the field. In two of the four wards, the same colored candidates were npon both the Radical and the Con? servative tickets. The Union's figures prove nothing to the purpose, at the beat; but how does our contemporary know for whom every Democrat voted ? f?o si titter's Bitters. chronic Indigestion affected me stomach only, le might be more easily borne; but lt gives rise In evitably to many other diseases, affecting the liver, the nerves, the bowels and the brain. Bil lousnts?, nervous tremors, consilpation, head? ache and terrible mental disturbances are among Us usual accompaniments. In fact every organ, every fibre of the frame sympathizes with the de? bilitated and diseased stomach. What is needed in such a case ? Clearly an alterative and in vigo? ran t ; and among Medicines of that class HOS TETTEK'S STOMACH BITTERS ls, beyond all comparison or estimate, the best. Mere purga? tives only deprive the system or the little strength that dlsea-e has left lt. Salivants have the same effect. The whole internal organism bas gone wrong, and can only be put right and kept right by a medicine la which the tonic and stimulat? ing elements predominate, but are qoallfled and modified by anti-billons aperients and blood purifying components. Kow, the truth ls, (and the medical faculty as well as the public know the fact ) that Hos tetter's Bitters contain every ingredient requisite tor the cure of dyspepsia and all the ailments or body and mind which lt In? volves. This has been proved In so many thou? sands or Instances that it seems almost idle to re? peat the statement. The great tonic rallies exhausted nature, from whatever cause enfeebled, and permanently re? cruits the vigor of the nerves, the muscles and the brain. Its effect npou the brain ls to give streng..1 to the will and precision to the Judg? ment, and to banish despondency and that Infir? mity of purpose which generally accompanies bodily weakness. apris-mwfsoac iinsiness Cares. .QHA s7~T?YB^?B700D>r' STEAM TURPENTINE DISTILLERY, AT FORKS OF ROAD, CHARLESTON, S.
