Andreas RIORDAN, DAWSON A CO., No. 14? East Bay, Charleston, S. 0. FRIDAY, JUNE 21, 1872 MT- Mr. WILLIAM E. SIMMONS, Jr., ls tb travelling agent for THE NEWS, for South Carolina. _ _ _ NEWS OE THE DAT. -It ls stated that one person in ten ol Ihe entire population of "Virginia ls a Baptist. -The Concord (N. H.) Herald says il Gree? ley be nominated at Baltimore he will carry the Granite State. -A correspondent of tho London Times has written to that Journal, pointing out that the celebrated maxim ol President Lincoln, "not to swap horses while fording the stream," has been expressed centuries ago. attributed to Cyrus the elder, King of Persia, in directing his troops to take np their several stations, when he said, "When the contest is about to begin there ls no longer time for any chariot to unyoke the horseB for a change." wini ni si i III li ililli IpVniili Bl nt tnr nntrt 4 delphla Ledger says: "The news from Charles, ton, that a Cuban privateer is off that port, cre? ates no surprise here, where the circumstances of her fliting out are well known In certain cir? cles. The Cuban Junta, it ls said, will have a special meeting to receive Lieutenant Chau veaux, who is hourly expected with dispatches from the vessel. The expectation seems to be that this privateer will not only worry Spanish . merchantmen on the coast of Cnha, but also ) Irritate the Spanish Government its*?"''-3 10 * make it deny our claim to th<* ??render of Dr. Howard, and thus increase the chances of war with the two countries, the result of which (the Junta declare) would be the indepen? dence of the Lland. --Among the prominent Democrats already chosen to the Baltimore Convention are the following: Senators Bayard and Davis, of West Virginia; ex-Senators Doolittle and Cling man, of North Carolina; Governor Hoffman, of New Jo?k; ex-Governors Saulsbury,ol Dela? ware; Varice, of North Carolina; Porter and Aiken, of 8ou& Carolina; Dewey, of Wi scon sin; Generals Franklin, Shields and Cass; Con? gressmen Baraura, Biggs, Randall, Acker, Gets,Spear, Cox, Potter and Williams; Editors Green, ol the Boston Post; Burr, of the Hart? ford Times; Hyde, of the St. Louis Republl can; Barr, ol the Pittsburg Post; Simons, of the Charleston Courier; and Cassidy, of the "Albany Argus; Amasa Sprague, the cotton king of Rhode leland; D. M. Barringer, ex? minister to Spain, and Henry C. Murphy, ex minister to the Netherlands. -One of the most eminent men of the Church of Scotland, and a very remarkable pulpit orator, was the Rev. Norman Macleod, who died on Monday. He entered the Pres? byterian pulpit In the Parish of Loudoun, Ayr? shire, in 1838; in 1843 was transferred to Dal keith, and in 1851 became minister of the Barony Parish, Glasgow. He was made a doctor of divinity In 1858, and In 1860 he ac cepted the post creditor of the now well known, but then first projected, periodical Good Words, which was under his management at the time of hiB death., Dr. Macleod was the author of several popular novels ot a religl oas character. As one of the Queen's chap? lains, he was accustomed to preach at B&.mo ral every year during the royal residence there, and hiB relations with her Majesty were of Intimate friendship. Dr. Macleod'a last clerical charge was that of St. Columba's. Glasgow, where many Americans resorted ta bear him. He was just sixty years of age when death called him from the scene ol his labors, having been born at Campbelton, ia Scotland, in 1812. -The Gatling guns at West Point are curl ons looking implements of warfare, bat more carious still ls the manner of their working. Aft odd-appearing, bending band of steel is brought from the ammunition chest and held Immediately over and in contact with the slit In the upper part ol the gun. This segment contains twenty cartridges, and, as the crank cf the. "coffee mill" is turned, they descend in due sequence into chambers where they ex plode. From the many mouths of the gun shoot forth uninterrupted numbers ol pier clogly bright flashes oi flame, surrounded by enwrapping vella of blue smoke, and from the lower side comes a steady stream cf empty cartridge shells. When one segment ls ex haosted it is replaced by mother, and there is really no limit to the capacity of the gun so long as the crank Is kept turning. An officer informs me that they can Are four hundred and twenty shots a minute ! and, furthermore, that the prevalent Impression concerning their delicacy and liability to get out of order is untrue; that they are easily managed, sim ply constructed, and good for much service. -Again ls Nilsson, the Swe dish nightingale carolling to delighted audience in London after an American experience o? two years, and the generally unimpressive Briton considers him? self perfectly justifled in going music-mad over the return of the songstress, who ushers In an operatic Bprlng time. Her first reappear ance was at Drury Lane Theatre, as Violetta, in Verdi's "La Treviata," the opera in which her first brilliant successes were won. Her entry upon the stage before ber old admirers was the signal for a hearty English roar of de? lighted welcome, which, however unmusical lt might have sounded to Nilsson's practiced ear, waa no less gratelully received than the sweet sounds she gave in return. The Lon? don criticism up on her, which at first 1B a mat ter of comparisons, is that she has greatly im? proved in personal appearance and dramatic power slHce.they last saw her, and acquired a beauty and quality of tone which she had not possessed in their previous acquaintance with her. She carried her audience along as If by magic, and finding plaudits unequal to an ex? pression ol their enthusiastic approbation, they broke Into true Russian wildness of sen? timent and pelted the fair singer with bou? quets, BO as to seriously er^oam^s her in her professional duties. The murder of Leonie Andre in New York by ber husband, Emil Andre, is but a single addition to a very common class of crimes. Two years ago the couple came to this coun? try from France with two children. In his own country he had been foreman of a gang of laborers on a railroad, but hoped lo better his condition here. On the contrary, unable to speak the language, and falling lil, among other afflicting diseases being small? pox, he had to use exceedingly close calcula? tion in making the ends meet. He worked some on the Erie road, and took charcoal lobs in Connecticut, and thereby managed to sustain his family, and this was not his great? est trouble. His wife was gay and fond of the society of the opposite sex, and she formed the acquaintance of oae Tani?re, who seemed to please her more than her owu husband. The latter pleaded and remonstrated, but to no purpose, and finally he secured a formal agreement of separation from a French law? yer, giving him the custody of the children. He called at her apartments ta get her signa? ture, but she said it was not worth the paper lt was written on, and refused. Her obstinacy maddened him, and pulling out a single-bar. relied pistol he followed her into the street, and seizing her at a corner placed the muzzle against her neck and fired, killing herat once. The excited bystanders were In favor of hang? ing him to a lamp-post immediately, but he was rescued by a policeman, and locked up. A verdict of murder has since been rendered, and the murderer committed. The woman re lused to sign, because wishing to return to France she was ashamed to do BO without her husband's name. -One of the latest and most successful oharlties of London was started about a year ago. It Is an Institution where the babies of poor workwomen are taken in, the charge being lour cents per day. The average at. tendance ls sixty-five; the mothers take their children' in the morning, and call for them again at night; the children meanwhile being w'ashed, led, and, when they -are old enough, taught._ Prepare for Action t At last a private stockholder has begun proceedings against the Blue Ridge Ring. There has unquestionably been wholesale jobbery, and only the high priests of Radi? calism know what. bas become of the $1,800,000 of Revenue Bond Scrip. The effort is now making to compel the Presi? dent and Directors to account for all the money that has been received, and to place the road in tbe hands of a receiver. Does the City of Charleston intend to become a party to the snit? As the holder of one mil? lion dollars of the stock of the Blue Ridge Railroad, it is directly to the interest ?' ?ae city to ascertain what ar* liabilities of the Company: what haB become of the ocrijy authorized to be Issued for its relief. At present the citizens are io the dark. All that they koow is that one million dollars, involving an annual tax of sixty thousand dollars, are at stake. Unless the courts inter? vene the whole of this will be sacrificed, and the road may, besides, pass into the hands of, a Ring, who will use it as a means of in? juring the trade of Charleston. Are the private stockholders, whose stake is small, to ao all the fighting ? Prudence, jusUce and common sense emphatically answer, No ! The City Council have already called upon the City .Attorney to report what is necessary to be done to protect the interests of the city. That official can surely report at the next meeting of the City Council ; if he cannot, let the Council move without bim. What is needed is, Action ! Action 1 Action ! The Liability of Stockholdere In Banka. Judge Graham has delivered an elaborate opinion in three cases Involving, the liability of the stockholders of the Farmers' and Ex? change Bank, under its charter. This opinion, as printed by the Courte:; covers the following points with regard to the Farmers' and Exchange Bank, and all other banks acting under the same or a similar charter : 1. That the acts of the Legislature do im? pose an individual liability on the stockhold? ers of the bau k. 2. That this liability is confined to those who owned shares in the bank on the 29th November, 1860, when it suspended specie payments, or who had held such shares at any time within twelve months previous to that date. 3. That this liability is alone for such bills of the bank as wore actually in issue on the 29th of November, 1860, the date of its sus? pension and refusal to pay its notes in. cur? rent coin, and therefore of its fallare. 4. That there is no individual liability on the part of the stockholders for any bills issued after the 29tb of November, 1860, the date upon which the bank failed to pay its notes, according to their legal obligation, in current coin. 5. That those who dealt with xbe bank while in a state of suspension, did so at their peril, and are not within the mischief against which the law intended to provide, by fixing individual liability upon the corporators. 6. That the burden of proof is upon the holder of the bill, to sho w that it was issued and put in circulation by the bank prior to the 29th November, 1860. -The income of the City of Columbia is $30,000 or $40,000 a year more than its ex? penses; yet the six per cent, bonds of the city are sold at auction at 65a66i. They are dirt cheap at that price, but the public evidently have no confidence in a Radical ridden community. The same feeling con? trols the price of State securities. With an honest government, State bonds would sell at eighty or ninety. They now hang be? tween thirty and forty. -What a flutter there will be if, as our spe? cial dispatches indicate, a fall disclosure is made of all the receipts and payments by the State for the last two years. That will show where the money goes to, and will dis? prove the charge that the financial embar? rassments of the State are caused by the failure of the people to pay the taxes promptly.._ -The public are curious to koow what is the cost of the Eu-Elux prosecutions ia Sooth Carolina, and how much was paid to witnesses and spies. Special telegrams to THE NEWS assert that the United States Court for Arkansas cost a quarter of a mil? lion dollars for a single term. Can South Carolina beat that ? -Any misstatement made by the re? porters and correspondents of THE NEWS will be corrected, If application be made to this office. Otherwise no notice will be taken of the complaint, whatever its nature. -On Wednesday the Maryland, the Min? nesota and the Texas Democrats declared themselves for Greeley and Brow?. This is glory enough for one day. New Booka* AMERICANISMS; THU ENGLISH OF THE OLD WORLD. By M. Scheie de Vere, LL. D., Pro? fessor "ol Modern Languages in the Univer? sity of Virginia. New York : Charles Scrib? ner* Co. 1872. Pp. C95. Price $3 50. Professor De Vere has given us a very curi? ous and interesting book. In a growing coun? try like ours, where ideas, manners and even populations ore constantly shifting to a greater or less degree, language, of course, must like? wise conform to the universal law of change lar more readily than in the fixed communi? ties of the Old'World. For this reason any work treating of the distinctive traits of American talk must necessarily, ia a certaia sense, lack completeness. But in the book be? fore us we have all that could be expected from a keen, observant and pains-taking phil? ologist, who has evidently brought to his re? searches a zeal only equalled by his thorough training and rare industry. Professor De Vere examlnep, successively, the Americanisms which have been eugrafted upon our language by the Indians, the Dutchman, the French? man, the Spaniard, the German, the negro, and John Chinaman. The remainder ol his volume is devoted mainly to the discussion of the peculiarities of American dialect, which owe their origin to the great West, to the church, to politics and to trade. Oar slang afloat and on the rail is also treated Ia sepa? rate chapters. It may be remembered that Mr. Marcy, wheo Secretary of State, issued a circular to the official representatives of the United States in foreign countries requiring them to make all communications to his de? partment la the American language. No scholar who would keep In view the difler onces between that "American language" and the good old "King's English," can afford to be without Proiessor De Vere's admirable treatise. WITHIN AND WITHOUT. By George Macdon? ald, LL. D., author of "Wilfred Camber mede," "Annals of a Quiet Neighbor," Ac. New York: Scribner, Armstrong & Co. 1872. Pp.219. Price $160. Here we have an old-fashioned love story, arranged as a drama, and told in spirited blank verse. The tinted paper and beautifully clear print of the Riverside press, In which the volume ls presented, would make a less meritorious poem attractive and readable. Mr FARM OF EDGEWOOD, A Country Book. By the author of "??verles of a Bachelor.' New. Yor?f .. aorioner, Armstrong & Co. 1872. TV. ai?. Price $1 25. A pleasant running record of the experience of an enthusiastic lover of country life, who bought a hundred acre farm somewhere down East, "to ditermine by actual experiment if "farm lands were simply a cost and an annoy "ance to any one who would not wholly fore? swear books, enter the mud trenches valor? ously, and take the pig by the ears with his "own hands." After a lull, (air and earnest trial of the larm, its pleasures, its pains and its profits, Its helps and its hindrances, the author, Mr. Donald G. Mitchell, is confirmed In his convictions that, of ali occupations, the farmer's is the happiest, the most wholesome, and the most useful. These books may be had at Fogartle's, King street. ijostettcr's Hitters.
