SEWS OF THE DAT. -Tbe monument of Sir Waiter Scott, in . Central Park, New York, is to be unveiled during next month. -A Richmond man has worn the same pair of linen trousers forty-nine summers. They have been In style seven times. -Fifty millions of paper collars and curl's are made annually In Troy, N. T.. and seventeen thousand people are employed In doing lt. -Miss Nellie Grant ls reported by a Paris paper to have bought forty thousand francs' worth of silks and laces at a single shop io the French capital. If this be so it will be Collector Arthur's unpleasant business to re? mind the young lady's papa of the duty be owes his country. -The consumption of animal ivory is some? thing enormous. Sheffield alone would de? mand the killing of twenty thousand elephants annually, were there no other sources of sup* ? ply. One great source of late years ls found in the tusks of mammoths, an extinct species of elephant which lived In northern* Siberia some two hundred thousand or more years ago, when that country enjoyed a tempera? ture like tbat of the tropics at tbe present day. -At Marseilles, Dejazet, who bas entered upon her seventy-fifth year, is drawing crowds nightly to see her ID the plays of "Monsieur Garat" aad "dentil Bernard." Old men go to the theatre to recall the impressions of their youth, and tho young see bow lt ls possible for ona never to get old. In "Monsieur G aral" -say the French critics-Dejazet dances with - the most elegant dexterity. After this the fat ie cf NIBC? de l'??uelos sinks Into i o signifi? cance, and all tbat bas been said about tbe fount of perpetual youth ceases to be fabu? lons. -Somebody recently wrote>te the eminent Professor Tyndall to make a novel proposi? tion. He proposes to. test the efficacy of prayer . In general, and particularly of prayer for the siak, by Betting apart a certain hospital to be specially prayed for by the whole body of tbe ' faithful for a given period of time-say five years. At the end of this term the death rate could be compared with that of previous years, and also with that of other wards or hospitals of the same grade for the same period, and . thus it could be seen whether the praying had ' had any effect Professor Tyndall does not seem to think the idea a bad ona, aa he says it Is "desirable to have clearer notions than we now possess of the action of Divine Provi? dence IQ physical affairs." -Thu burning of ?hlcago involved the loss of all the official record a of title to real estate In Cook County, and last winter a law was passed by the Illinois Legislature for the re- , lief of property holders, which provided for the purchase at a fair price of certain books and abstracts of title which were preserved from the flames and are the property of private parties. These books comprise in all about two hundred volumes, and belong to three firms, who act as one party lu their ne - gotlatlons with the authorities. It appears that a fair price for these books, which tend . to show a continuous chain of title to all the real estate in cook County, according to the views of the owners is $750,000. The county board Is unable to see the matter in that light, but do not know what they can do about lt. -The system of lnvolnntary contributions forced upon subordinates In government offices, which the pious Senator Buckingham tries to justify by comparing lt to the religious offerings made for church purposes, is being pushed to extremes under the exigencies of the present campaign. Already two requisi? tions have been made on the department clerks in Washington for the expenses of the North Carolina election, and the victims are beginning to inquire among themselves how much salary they will have left If the extor? tion continues at the same rate, after con? tributing for Maine, Induna and Pennsyl? vania. They fear that by tbe time the No? vember contest approaches they will be drained dry and will bave exhausted their credit so that the gt vernment will be obliged to fill their places - vIth new men who will be able and winii? to contribute freely In the hope of compensating themselves for present outlay through future opportunities. The mode of levying these contributions, accord? ing to the Washington Patriot, is to head the list for each class with the name of a well known derk, against which ls placed the amount per head assessed against that class, after which the paper Is presented to the clerks In succession. They all deem lt pru? dent to respond te the call. -The prevailing Idea that teals the ordlna fy drink of the whole Chinese people is pro? nounced by a writer in Petermann's Mittheil? ungen, nothing but a popular delusion. "The people of the lower classes," he says, 1 'es? pecially in the northern provinces, only know it ai a luxury, and drink water with as much pleasure as the wealthy da their Infusion of green tea. * * ? The middle classes lu the same districts use an infusion of the dried leaves of certain plants, and it ls only the richer classes who allow them? selves tbe luxury of ?Irinking real tea. Even in the provinces where tea ls grown tea-drinking ls not general. The plants grow on hills often not less than a thousand feet above the nearest valleys, the inhabitants of which must therefore buy their tea from tbe planters. Now, the poor prefer to keep the copper cash they would have to expend for this purpose, and take hot water instead, or, what ls more common, an infusion of tbe leaves of other plr.ats wLich grow wild in their fields. These facts seem to lead to the Interference that the use of tea in China has arisen from the aversion of the Chinese to drinking cold water, for which a natural cause might be found In the circumstance that as a rule the only water they can get ls that wblch has flowed over rlce-flelds, and has consequently become unhealthy through the absorption of decayed vegetable matter." -The ritual question has come to such a point In England that personal encounters in church, and even during divine service, seem to be becoming fashionable among the adhe? rents ot these ceremonials and those who are opposed to them. St. Michael's Church, South? ampton, has lately become quite notorious from the proceedings of its clergy, which are entirely opposed to the views of a majority of J the congregation. They have carried matters BO far that the bishop of Winchester had to In? hibit one clergyman for "kissing his stole" while officiating at the reopening of the church, and the vicar had to give explanations to the bishop about his use of Incense and other pract'ces on tba same occasion, all at variance with the rubric. One Sunday evening, In this same church, the Rev. Herbert Smith, who bad "publicly pro tested" against these ceremonies, took his seat in the centre aisle, and on the entrance of the vicar he rose and said he felt lt to be his duty to expose him. Upon this he said aloud to the vicar : "Wnat ls to be done with you who set at defiance the authority of | the blshopB and churchwardens ? People ought to leave the church." The vicar, with probably more faith in "muscular Christiani? ty" than any other, at once seized upon his opponent, to make one person at least leave the church, and a desperate Btruggle took place between the two, with no positive result until a policeman came upon the scene. To him Mr. Smith patriotically exclaimed, "You are the representative of the Queen, and I accompany you directly," and then left the church. To quiet and* devout parishioners who attend church only for their souls' good, these clerical performances at St. Michael's mast be anything bnt edifying. A Letter Worthy of the Man. -We print to-day the letter of Mr. Gree? ley, accepting the nomination of the National Democracy. Like everything that comes from bis pen, it is clear, ringing and honest, and the nobie sentiments which it expresses will eurely find an echo in the heart of the people everywhere.

Bat these expen? ditures are of two classes; ordinary, amount? ing to $13,387,488, and extraordinary, amounling to $6,287,998. So that there was a profit on the working lines, and the excess was only on tbe new constructions. In Great Britain and Ireland the excess of receipts over working expenditures was Si,5t>7,932, and this resulted from the entire freedom of the lines and the vast activity of the people. Telegraph prices are lowest in Belgium, and that country affords the best basis for judg? ing of the system. Bat it must be borne In mind that oar own national mail service does not pay expenses nor anything like it, the usual deficiency being about five millions of dollars a year. The rates are low and the lines innumerable, the principle being to bring the service within the reach of all as a means of developing the intelligence of the people. This seems to ts to be the proper plan to apply to the use of the telegraph lines. This great invention has superseded tbe use of the mails in so many cases, that the governments of Europe consider it no more than just and proper that they should attach it to the Postal Department, and in Belgium and England the results have been most beneficial in cheapening the rates and in? creasing the number or lines by the exten- j sion or the system to all postotfices. The first telegraph line was built at the cost of | the United State.7. Government, and yet, strange to say, the whole benefit of the experiment thns boldly made has enured to private corporations, until, at the present lime, the telegraph companies constitute a monopoly power rivalling the express and railway companies in magnitude. That they have done good by the enterprise we do not deny. Yet who can compare the good they have done with what the government postal department has achieved by its stupendous mail service, covering the whole continent, and penetrating where neither railways nor telegraphs are known, and where even common roads are scarce? There is, in fact, no enterprise for which Ihese telegraph companies receive credit that could not be more quietly and more promptly undertaken and maintained by the Postal Department; and the simple fact that ir the telegraph were a government service, the rates of messages | would be reduced to a point barely sufficient to cover expenses, ignoring all question of dividends, states the whole case. It is also f to be remarked that a government telegraph service would connect with every postoffice in the Republic, however small or remote. Compared with the rates of mail postage, the rates at present charged for telegraph messages are simply monstrous. They con? stitute an unnecessary tax upon business, upon the spread of intelligence, and upon all the operations or daily life. The National Government could do no act calculated to benefit the entire mass of the people so much as to take the entire eontrol of the telegraph lines as a branch of the postal service. President Greeley'? Cabinet. The administration of Horace Greeley, there is reason to believe, wiil be the strong? est, in point of intellectual calibre and statesmanship, that the country has known for a quarter of a century. Freed, in great measure, from party shackles, Mr. Greeley will be tbe President of tbe whole people and can afford to call around him a Cabinet of the ablest and purest men of the nation, without regard to their past political affilia? tions. It is no secret that such will be his policy. The Spriogfleld Rejmblican, which ought to be good authority, says: "Were it "permitted to him to frankly tell the coun? try now the names of the gentlemen whom^ "if elected, he should call to his Cabinet, "and appoiDt to each representative execu? tive places as the customhouses of our "great cities, confidence in his wisdom "would be powerfully accelerated." In a word, President Greeley means to make good his title to the soubriquet of "Honest "Horace." A Public Ontrage. The condition in which that cool corpora? tion, the Enterprise Eailroad Company, have seen fit to leave the plank road on Washington and Ohapel streets, in the neigh? borhood o? the Northeastern Railroad Depot, is simply intolerable. Ic is almost impossi? ble at this time for horses or mules attached to loaded carts or drays to pass through either of the streets named without a stumble or a fall. A large number of the poor beasts or burden have already been injured in this way, and several BO seriously that it is feared they will die. This state of things cannot be endured. Let the city authorities at once stir up the Enterprise folks with the longest and sharpest kind of a stick, or else the city may suddenly find itself with several inter? esting suits for damages on its hands. Spartanburg Awake. Spartanburg County is moving forward manfully in the cause of local reform. Her citizens, without distinction of party, who are in favor of an honest and capable ad? ministration of State affaire, are to hold a meeting at the Courthouse on sales-day in August to consider the propriety of and de? vise a plan for a Convention to make nomina? tions for county officers and members of the General Assembly. We hear similar encour? aging accounts from York and several of the other upper counties. Forney on tbe Coln mb ta King;. [From the Philadelphia Press.] The first and guiltiest of the seceding States, South Carolina bas been the most unfortunate and worst punished of them all; but the pun? ishment has been greater than she deserved. Since the war closed and the military govern? ment was superseded by the civil authority, she has been at the mercy of a more rapacious gang of thieves than the Tammany ot Tweed. A cornipt Bing have wantonly wasted and ap? propriated the revenues of the State, and, while Its people of all classes are to-day the most Impoverished In the country, these men are among the wealthiest. The extent of their stealings reaches millions of dollars and covers a period of many years. The cruelest feature of the whole unfortu? nate affair Is that the taxpayers have no redress. The colored people are In a great majority and completely under the control ol these rascals. Their votes perpetuate this infamous rule, and have embittered thousands of white men In the State disposed to be fair to the colored men. The consequence has been the Ku-Elux and a vain attempt at the restoration of the white minority through assassination and Intimidation of the blacks. We deplore, but do not apologize for, this condition of affairs, the end of which we can? not see. It bas made the name of Republican? ism synonymous for plunder In South Carolina, and lt ought to be a warning for us of Penn? sylvania not to elect to offices of honor and trust Incompetent or dishonest men. The whole of South Carolina's troubles since the war date lrom the ei?ctlon and re-election ol men simply because they were Republicans, and not because they were honest and flt. The Eclectic Magazine. From Fogartie's we have the August num" ber of this sterling compilation. The leading article ls an able critical paper from the Quar? terly Review on "Thomas Carlyle;" and this is followed by an article from Blackwood, written by Mr. William H. Reed, of Philadelphia, and entitled "Thackeray In America." This arti? cle contains several letters lrom Thackeray, hitherto unpublished, and is, altogether, highly Interesting. Other papers of value are "Gamb? ling Superstitions;" "The Study of Astrono? my," by Richard Proctor, B. A.; "The Eng? lish Sonnet;" "Social New York;" "A Chapter from the Life of an Arch-Conspirator;" "Del? phine Gay;" "The Late Solar Eclipse;" and "Napoleon's Project ol InvadlDg England." "The Strange Adventures of a Phaeton" grows In Interest, and the editorial departments con? tain the usual attractive miscellany. South Carolina at Baltimore. [From the Camden Journal.] It does one good to read how South Carolina acquitted herself at the Baltimore Convention, and particularly cf the exceedingly opportune speech of Hon. M. P. O'Connor, of Charleston, made at the most critical point of the debate, In reply to Senator Bayard, ol Delaware. Mr. O'Connor's speech thrilled that mighty multi? tude, swayed themas the storm does the trem. bl lng reed, and found a responsive echo In almost every heart. When he ceased there was no longer adoubt as to the result Greeley was nominated on the first ballot ! All the New York dallies speak In the highest terms of the speech; and even Grant's organ, the Times, notices lt. THE Hon. Reverdy Johnson seldom ap? pears io the field of politics nowadays, aDd for that very reason the powerful letter in to-day's NEWS, in which he declares for Greeley r.nd against Grant, will have great weight in the public mind. i?laiinfac?nrcs.
