SIMMONS, Jr., la the travelling agent for THE NEWS, for South Carolina. NEWS OE THE DAT. -A balloon corps is to be organized in the Prussian army. -The rice crop along th? lower Louisiana coast ls reported to be especially nourishing, and the ratoon cane also promises well. . -The German army ls to be furnished with a rifle of anew pattern, said to bean improve? ment on the old needle-gun, aud greatly superior to the c?assepot. -The large earrings, which have for the past year or two dlsflgured ladies' ears, are going, out of fashion, and studs of diamonds, or other alone?, are worn Instead. -Mr. Disraeli, the author of "Lothalr," was present at the recent marriage of the Marquis of Bute, the hero of "JLiOthalr," and signed bis name to the marriage certificate as one of the witnesses of the ceremony. -Au old gentleman is living at the Astor House, New York, who registered his name on the books of the hotel the first day it was opened, and bas been there ever since, a period ol thirty-four years. -The King of the Belgians presided at the Boyal Literary Fund dinner in London. Archbishop Manning gave a toast, Disraeli made a speech and the Archbishop of York said grace. -The whereabouts of - various celebrated singers is given as follows: Miss Louise Kellog ls sining at Drury Lan??. T./>n<?o?i aiiss Minnie Hauch, ls at Vienna, and the Marquise de Caux, Adelina Patti, is at Su Petersburg. At Trieste, a j oung Pole, aged seventeen and said to be very pretty, ls attracting great attention. She bas been spoken ot as the successor ot Patti, wbo will retire from the stage alter next sea? son, and lt is said thu Mr. Gye has already secured the new prima donna for the London Opera House. -Boston, not content with a monster jubi? lee, ls about to produce another monster. In the lora of a gigantic balloon, which an sero naut of that city ls constructing. The ci rcu in? ference of the body of the balloon is to be one hundred and nlnel. -one feet, and it will be capable of holding one hundred thousand feet of gas.. It is to be ?Riled the Colossus, and will carry nearly seven thousand pounds when filled with hydrogen. It is to have two cars the upper one for scientific observations, and the lower one for passengers. It will be the largest balloon ever used In this conntry. ? -M. Pavy, a French gentleman, who has projected a voyage to the North Pole on an India rubber raft, will start from San Francisco shortly, with three companions. Of bis asso? ciates, one is Captain Hicks, who is the daring - seaman who crossed the Atlantic on the raft Nonpareil. The present raft ls of similar con? struction with that. The expedition goes first to Petropaulowskl, thence to Wran gel's Island. After this ' hey expect to make their way to the open Polar Sea, launching their rait, in which they hope to reach the coast ot Green? land.. -As Madame Lue i ls expected to visit us during the coming year, the following esti? mate cf her powers arni style from an English Journal Is ot Interest: "Madame Lucca's action ls warmer and more tragic than that of Nils? son. Her vocalization has more color, pas? sion, aud enthusiasm; is less a cold, construc? tive body of beauty, fuller of pulse vividness; and vitality; more sensuous and living; less like a splendid Btatue of ice, brilliant, scintil? lating, reflecting every passion of lyrical drama, but posserae 1 of none. As a conse? quence, hor style is more sympathetic, and exacts aa equal sympathy from the audience.'' -Secretary Boutwell last week received a letter from a lawyer ia Philadelphia, enclos? ing a check for four thousand dollars, and saying: "One of my correspondents, a natu? ralized citizen of the United Slates, who re? turned to Europe some years ago, has direct? ed me to pay over to the Government ot the United States, ia aa unobtrusive manner, a sum ol money, as a token ol the obligations be feels under to this free and noble govern? ment, and hlB mite toward the payment ol the national debt. Enclosed, tberelore, please find my check on the Central National Bank of this city, to your order, for four thousand dollars, which I send to you as the proper re? cipient, on behalf of the United States." -The Japanese maidens, ia Washington, are making aa excellent impression upon those whom they meet, and learn the accom? plishments and fall loto the general routine of cultivated American society very easily. A correspondent of a New York paper receotly bad the pleasure, for such he coosidered it, of playlDg croquet with three of them, tor they have cometo understand the game as well as Ah Sin, from assister empire, did euchre. They are reported to be quite pretty and graceiul In tho extreme, and they take kindly to the American dress, which they are now able to dispose with as striking effect as the best-trained Filth avenue belle, though some awkwardness was manifested at nm, they having been quite as apt to appear with morning robes bottom side up or wrong side out as the right way. They are not Princesses, bot daughters of the nobility, and are now under the direct charge of Mr. Morl, chief of the embassy, who one day had to be sum? moned to preserve discipline among them. The American habit of staring gives them a great deal of trouble, and is an Impertinence which they are never guilty cf, their manners lo general being unexceptionable. Their English ls very good, considering the time they have spent upon lt, though they think that Americans talk very fast, and have a great many Charlies among them. On the whole, the prospect is that when their educa? tions have beeu completed, Ia ten years from now, they will compare lavorably with their Caucasian sisters, and prove the experiment a success. -The Washington correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial writes: "There has been, within the past few days, a rumor circu? lated very quietly to the effect that a power? ful movement has beea organized to defeat the ratification of the nomination of Horace Greeley by* the Baltimore Convention. The parties in this movement are said to embrace wealthy business men and bondholders, who believe that Mr. Greeley, If elected, would not take euoh a course as to retain our present high financial standing among the nations o? the world, and also men of the Dan. Voorhees stripe, who are opposed to Greeley on every account, by free traders in the West, and by all dissatisfied Republicans, who failed to 8ecure the nomination of their candi? dates at Cincinnati. It Is represented that circulars of a confidential nature have been Bent out; that letters have been writ? ten to varions paris of the country, and that the movement has already such an Impetus as to secure the nomination at Baltimore o? a Re? publican whose-vlews In the past have been of a more conservative and less pronounced character than those o? Mr. Greeley, and whose personal record has been more con? sistent. Reports even go so far as to say that the administration has encouraged this move? ment, and is lending what force lt can to the furtherance of its object, viz: the deicat o? Greeley and the election of Grant. It is freely charged that a conspiracy to this end has been worked up between the administration men nnd the straight-out Democrats of the Voorhees stripe. The fact that this Important political project has just been made public Induces the belief that it is of recent origin, and less powerful than reported, but that such a project ls on foot there is little doubt." To the City Council: The City Council, at their meeting to I night, will determine whether four or five thousand dollars shall be wasted in the en J doavor to prove that the Enterprise Railroad j Company have not the right to complete a great public work. We are not the advo? cates of the new concern which disembow? els streets and interferes with irafBc; bnt we are, in Borne sort, the representatives of the taxpayers, and we are not willing that the hard-earned money of the people should be spent in what the official advisers of the Conned bave declared to be a vain and an ill-judged contest The patriotic spirit of General James Simons and Mr. M. P. O'Connor gives the City Council an oppor? tunity of reconsidering their decision. We can only hope that the conduct of Council may be in unison with the popular will, and in keeping with the pledges nuder which they were elected to their important office. Tile Prospect for Saudi euroli??. The popular favor with which the nomina? tion of Horace Greeley has been so unmis tnkabiy Lulled throughout the whole South j is accounted by the press and politicians of the North as among the most puzzling phe? nomena of the day. They seem not to un? derstand the fact that the Soulhern people bave done, for the present, at least, with wrangling over the abstract political theo? ries, the petty spites, and the buried issues of the bitter past, and are bent solely upon taking care of their own material interests in the future. Soulh Carolina, which is in worse plight than any of ber sister Slates, alfords the most striking instance of the change which bas of late years come over the public sentiment of the South. Between the wholesale plundering of their rulers in ' Columbia, and the persistent persecution of their rulers in Washington, her people have lost all interest in things political, excepL in so far as they have a bearing npon the one i great question of Relhf. Until within the last few weeks their feeling bas been nearly akin to despair. The most sanguine among j them could discern nothing to cheer them in the prospect. But M ay-day came, preg? nant with joy and hope-Cincinnati spoke, and the spirits of the community were lifted np. All felt that the turning in the dark and weary lane, in which we have so long been plodding, was reached at last. All re? cognized in Mr. Greeley an able, honest and warm-hearted standard bearer, and the man of ail others to give us peace, prosperi? ty and a real rennion. Let bot the gleam of hope, held out to ns in his nomination, be fulfilled by. his triumphant election, and South Carolioa, in common with the whole Sooth, will awake to a new and brighter life. With an honest National Administration at Washington, corruption could not loo? thrive in Columbia, and the people of our State, confident in her wonderful resources, and in their own invigorated energies, could well afford to bear even the appalling financial bardens which the greed, dishon? esty and extravagance of the carpet-baggers and scalawags have fastened upon misgov? erned South Carolina. Urform - How to Get II! State Senator Smalls and Representative Bowen opened the political campaign in Beaufort last week. They declared that the members of the Radical State Govern? ment are responsible for the rampant fraud i and mismanagement, and insisted that the honest people would thrash ont the thieves in the fall election. The speakers are Re I publicans, and know what they are talking ! about; but the people are tired of the rheto? ric of the stump-speaker, and wonld like to see the men who confess and condemn the iitscality of South Carolina Republicanism go to work in earnest to secare practical re? form. This can bo accomplished by flatly refusing to support any candidate whose public record is tainted with snspiclon. The conservative citizens of the State are willing to join hands with the true Republicans for the purpose of electing a Governor who will not lie, a Legislature which will not accept bribes, and bureau officers who will not steal. But the office-holders control the regular conventions; and if Republicans like Bowen, Whipper and Smalls really want re? form, ihey must obtain it throngh the me? dium of independent nominations. The Scoti-MoBes crew will vow that this is ruin? ons to "the party;" but as only Repnbli I cans will be in nomination "the party" will not be in danger, unless, indeed, the choosing of notorious rogues and demagogues is abso^ lutely necessary to its existence. The Question of Race. At the Beaufort Radical meeting, Con? gressman DeLarge took occasion to say that j the white mun was "mighty uncertain," and that the colored people should stick to their own race in the selection of officers. This is not the strain in which DeLarge indulged when ho was courting the votes of the Charleston Conservatives in 1870. It is charilablfi to suppose that his opinions of the "white mau" were formed amongst the j Radical Congressmen in Washington and the Radical officials in Columbia; but his audience understood bis meaning, which is that DeLarge will make a much better Con? gressman than Rowen. Virtuous Indignation. Representative J. B. Dennis is virtuously indignant that a proposition should have been made for an extra session of the Legis ture, the real object of which is, he says, to squeeze more bribes out of persons, who are supposed to have beon benefited by tho legislation of lost session. In his opinion, no possible good can bc accomplished by getting that "legislative crowd" together again, and in this we agree with bim ; but J why did not Mr. Dennis reach this conclu sion.before? As a member of '.he Legisla? ture, be had a full opportunity of enforcing economy, so as "to improve tho finances" in earnest, but when plain dealing might have been useful, he was only known ia connec? tion with white-washing reports, and with furniture bills so enormous that even Gover? nor Scott could not stand them. Whenever ] Mr. Dean is preaches reform, the rotund ghost of bis costly cuspadors, and tho spec? tres of gorgeous carpets and elaborate cur? tains, rise up in judgment against bim. That upholstery bnsiness cost more than a legis? lative 8es3ton would do; and tbc spoils were divided amongst the few, instead of the many. However, the swindling extra session scheme j is dead as a door nail, all the same. New Book*. How THE WORLD WA.S PEOPLED. Etunologi-1 cal Lectures. By Kev. Ed. Fontaine, Pro-1 lessor of Theology, Natural Science, Ac. New York: D. Appleton <fc Co. 1872. Charles-1 lon: Holmes's BookhouBe. Mr. Fontaine began his Investigations with the determination to make a faithful effort to find the truth, and although we cannot al? ways agree with him In his conclusions, we bear willing testimony to the candor with which he states the views of his opponents and the clearness and force with which he j reasons upon thom. The author has studied the origin of the different races ol mankind for thirty years, and he thinks that the vexed question of their antiquity and of the unity ot creation ls satisfactorily settled. Mr. Fontaine is convinced that all men are the descendants of one original created pair; in Lins, differing ! from Murchison, Darwin, Agassiz and others. Doubtless this will command the work to colleges and schools; the more especially as j he does not atieront 'nie propositions | or mose who hold other opinions. Tn Iiis [ judgment DO one eau ponder bis arguments without admitting that the Mosaic account of | the creation of man is strictly correct. Pp. 341. Cloth. Price $2. JUG tuan rc.

In all arthritic complaints, as rheumatism, goat, neuralgia, Ac, thia practice ls almost perfect. The most Intense pains are almost Instantly re? lieved, enormous swellings are reduced, limns which have been contracted and stiff for years are relaxed. Cases of twenty, thirty and forty ye-us' standing have been oared by me after all other means have failed. A great accomplishment Is my triumph over palo by which I can ol ten. in a few moments, ooothc and carry off the most excruciating suf? ferings. If this syst m did nothing more than to relieve pain, it wonid stand superior to any I other system extant. CATARRH.

Thousands s infer from that most annoying, dla agrtODle and offensive complaint, catarrh, with? out knowing what lt ls. often toe secreted mu coa*, towing down the throat, clogs np the lungs and lays the foundation for consumption.
