Stewart, for mayor ot New York, and says lt neither knows nor cares to what-.political party be belongs. The New York^rrefn^Miiient of the Philadelphia Led? ger says:^ "A movement is on foot tobring out Mr: A T. Stewart as a candidate for the mayoralty, but, from all that can be aecer taJned, with no probability of success. Mr. jj Btewart, of course, would be elected, and Re pubUcans aa well as Democrats would gladly support bink He has no desire for the office, however,.and there is nothing in its supposed honors and emoluments to compensate him for the withdrawal of bis attention from busi? ness, which lt would Involve. Tbe Council of Political Reform bad a long session at the Croton House recently to talk the matter over. Among the more prominent gentlemen present were ex-Mayor Havemeyer, Oswald, Ottendorfer and James w Gerard. -The Paris America>i ! -gister of the 30th gives a piece of scan. mag. which will attract eomo attention here : "A contract of marriage was xeoently entered into between th? I daughter of Mme. Tietjene, the prima donna, und Signor Vlzzanl, the tenor of the MapleBon Troupe. The young lady Is the possessor of considerable beauty, and a very considerable dot. The date of the wedding was fixed; Mme. purchased a rich and very elegant trousseau, and the parties came on here to have the cer? emony performed. The wedding was to take place Irom the Hotel de Bussle, rue Drouot. At the appointed time, to the consternation of the guests, the gay tenor did not appear, and the wedding was postponed ontil further or? ders. A letter soon came from Signor Vlzzani? from on board Bleamer, to infirm the lady that he was on his way to New York, having found that he was not rich enough to marry, and hence felt bound to break off the engage? ment As the young lady had a large fortune of her own which, according to French laws, would have been Immediately made over to the husband, lt ls probable tbat lhere were other reasons than those given for this sudden resolution of the gay tenor." The Lunatic Asylum. Tbe following letter from Dr. Ensor, tbe | Superintendent of the State Lnnatic Asylum, gives tho result of bis visit to Charleston in search of the means of carrying on the in? stitution. Individuals were found ready and willing to subscribe what sums they could afford, but the banks did not feel warranted, it seems, in lending money upon tbe sole j security of warrants drawn upon an empty Stats Treasury. Private subscriptions Dr. EnBor declines to receive, but a way must J be found of providing for the four hundred [ helpless lunatics who, for months, have de? pended for their subsistence and shelter] upon the benevolent aid of the bankers and merchants of Columbia. The appropria? tion made at the last session of the Legis? lature would cover all the wants of the Asy? lum. Thanks to official extravagance, the taxes are exhausted and the Treasurer's chronic cry is "no funds." The money ap? propriated to the Asylum will be paid in the | conree of the winter, and they who make advances ron BO seri?os risk of ultimate loss. Dr. Ensor has contrived, through the kindness of a large-hearted Columbia mer? chant, to obtain supplies of provisions for the Asylum as far as October 1. After that time, the lunatics will be without bread to eat, unlesB Charleston can help them. Co? lumbia has nobly done ber part, and can do no more. One way .ol obtaining the means required suggests itself. Two thousand or three thousand dollars in money will carry j on the Asylum from October 1 to Novem? ber 1. This money could doubtless be bad upon tbe security of a Treasury warrant for j double the amount, with endorsed individual ? notes as collateral security. Those who are willing lo subscribe a sum of money can surely endorse for a like sum. The manner I of action, however, is immaterial. What we | desire to impress upon the Charleston pub lie is that, unless two or three thousand dol? lars can be procured by the first day of next month, the inmates of the Lunatic Asylum must starve, or be turned out into the streets: CHARLESTON, 8. C., September ll, 1872. TO THE EDITOR OP THE NEWS. I called on you this morning for the purpose ol thanking you for the kindly interest yon have taken in the cause of the Stale Lunatic Asylum, now under my care, in bringing its Charleston. I have been In Charleston two <iftya try lr. ir tn mian inn noy for tho ?ry lum. I bave met with a great deal of sympathy, and several gentlemen have made an earnest and sincere effort in our behalf, but, as yet, have failed to obtain any money-the difficul? ty being the want of confidence in State secur? ities, the only kind I can command as collate? ral. The Banks have tbe money and are ready to lend lt, but don't like the securi? ties. The sympathies of tlie people of Charleston are so thoroughly awakened that I have reason to believe that I could raise ten thous? and dollars by subscription In a lew days here; | that plan having been suggested, and a num? ber of subscriptions offered. But while I ap? preciate the kindly motive that prompts this offer on the part ot the citizens ot Charleston, j I could not accept any funds raised In this way. The institution has assets amply suffi- j j clent to pay all Hs debts, and will apply Ibem to that end as soon as they are available. Be- j j sides lt would be an Imposition on the people to ask them to .support the Asylum by private contributions, when they have paid their j taxes for that purpose. - Again thanking those gentlemen who so kindly offered lo aid me, I remain, Very truly, yours, J. F. ENSOR. Centralism. The chief objection of the straight-out Democrats to Horace Greeley is centralism. They complain of the meddling of the Fede? ral Government with the local affairs of the States, and their idea that the country is setting Bteadily towards a despotism has substantial foundation. The real champion of the policy of centralization is not Mr. Greeley; it is the Radical party with Presi? dent Grant at the head. That patty boldly avows the right of the central government to look into tbe several States to see that they are properly governed ; il assomes the right of supervision over them ; it claims the authority to set aside their laws and to supplant them with its own, for the protec? tion of citizens, the qualification of voters, the regulation of elections, and the perform? ance of other functions which come within the scope of the reserved rights of the Stales. Mr. Greeley, with all other Republicans, supported, for a lime, these aasnmpiions; he did not oppose the scheme of reconstruction, bot supported it in company with Schurz, Trnmbull and others, now in revolt against their party. They and he no longer recog? nize or admit the claims of the government to intermeddle with the Slates; that inter? meddling is one of their grounds of com? plaint against the Graut Republicans; it is one of the causes of their separation from the parly. Whatever wrongs the Liberals have countenanced in the past, it is cerlain that they now demand a strict interpreta? tion of tho Constitution. The fourth resolu? tion of the Cincinnati Liberal Convention lhat nomiuated Horace Greeley declares that "local self-government with impartial "suffrage will guard the rights of all citi "zens more securely than any centralized "power;" and the address which it issued to the people of the United States opens with the following challenge o? the central gov? ernment's usurpations: "The Administration now In power has ren? dered ltseli gullly of wanton disregard of the la wa of the land, and ot usurping powers not granted by the Constitution; it bas acted as li the laws had binding force only for those who are governed, and not tor those who govern. lt has thus struck a blow at the fundamental principles of conatitutlonal government- and the liberties of the citizen." Mr. Greeley, in his letter accepting the Cincinnati nomination, repeats the doctrine of the right of the States to regulate their own domestic affairs, ia even stronger and more explicit terras. He says : "Hi. That, subject to our solemn constitu? tional obligation to maintain the equal rights ot all citizens, our policy should aim at local sell-government, and not at centralization; that the civil authority should be supreme over the military; that tbe writ of habeas cor? pus Bhould be jealously upheld as the safe? guard of personal freedom; that the individual citizen should enjoy the largest liberty con? sistent with public order, and that there shall be no Federal subversion of the Internal policy of the several States and Municipalities, but that each shall be left free to enforce tbe rights and promote the well-being ot its In? habitants by such means as the judgment ol Its own people shall prescribe." With this assertion by the Liberal Gun- j ?*>ntlon of the right of State self-control, subject only to the supreme Constitution* and this still more emphatic reaffirmation of it by Mr. Greeley himself, tbe imputation of centralism against the Presidential can? didate whom both Dem?crata and Liberals are supporting, U gratuitous and ground? less. Ii President Grant should be re-elect? ed, his party will have secured a popular approval of its usurpations; but if Horace Greeley, with bis positive condemnation of [ them, should be elected, lt would be such a popular rebuke of them as every intelligent and reasonable Democrat would be satisfied with. _ _ _ The Leader of the South Carolina | Democracy. [From the Camden Journal .] THE CHARLESTON NEWS.-The proprietors I of this enterprising paper have moved Into j their new and elegant quarters on Broad street, where the (Southwestern Railroad Bank did business. The building bas been thorough? ly overhauled and fitted up expressly lor the convenience of Us new occupaute. We are glad to see this evidence of prosperity on the part of our co-qullls and contemporary, and hope that Its shadow may never grow less. But we hope that our valued contempo? rary will excuse us, when we venture to suggest that perhaps, since lt ls con? ceded to be the liveliest and spiciest paper In the State, it would be as well for its proprietors td undertake to become the directors of Democratic sentiment In the State. Not that effete sentiment with which we do not sympathize, but to meet the re- j quirements of the present. THE NEWS bas always been Democratic in its politics; the Democracy give It their support, and, without j that, THE NEWS would not perhaps be as pros perous as lt now Is. Hence lt seems Lo us to be nothing more than reasonable to aek that ? Tus NEWS return the compliment by attempt log, at least, to organize and direct the Demo? cracy at this juncture. What we have said has been suggested to us by mutual friends of I THE NEWS and ourselves, as well as by our [ own thoughts upon the subject. Let Them Fight lt Out Among Them? se I vea. [From the Marlon Crescent ] The most significant feature of the comest, so far as our people are concerned, Is this: The TomllDBon ticket appears to have the sup? port of men who are supposed to hold some of the Stale bondB lately issued, and the Moses ticket does not seem to meet with any larvt cni tuv unuoo vi wivli .. Ayi-y Moses and his canvassers declare against the payment of any bond tainted with fraud. If we had au y substantial guarantee that this would be carried out In good faith, we would prefer (though, of course, we would not support) Moses with all his Iniquities, but un? fortunately this promise ls as unsubstantial as ire all tbe others. Our plan will be to walt let the Regulars and Boilers fight their own Ight, and, li future developments should show my substantial good to our poor old Stale to ie galoed by active participation in the can? vass on our part, then we will so advise cur readers. Till then, we advise them to let Messrs. Moses and Tomllnsou bespatter each ) flier as they choose. The New York Aqueduct. Another gigantic public enterprise ls rapld y progressing In New Tork City, which the Tribune describes in an interesting article, [t says: "The work ol breaking the aqueduct, 'reducing it to the level of the adjoining 'properly, and conducting the Croton water 'below One Hundred and Thirteenth street, 'through iron pipes sunk below the grade of | 'Tenth avenue, ls advancing satisfactorily, 'and will be completed In a short lime. More 'than five hundred men are employed upon 'the work, and the sewers which are building 'are nearly finished. Pipes and sewers have 'been laid for a distance exceeding a mlle 'since the resumption of work last spring. 'The width of the opening ls sixty feet. "Provision bas been made for the future "requirements of the elly, and six rows ?.of Iron pipes, each four feet in dlame- j "1er, have been laid. The old aque-1 "duct ls only eight feet in diameter, "and consists only of a Bingle tunnel, so that "the new pipes will have a capacity nearly "three limes as great as the aqueduct, and be "ample for the needs of 2,000,000 people. "There are about three thousand pieces of | "pipe, each twelve feet In length, and as the "average weight of each pipe Is four and a "half tons, lt has been no easy matter lo put "them in their proper places. Since last "spring Bewers have been constructed for a "distance exceeding a mlle, and many of the "pipes are already lu their places. It ls nec? essary to finish the sewers before the water "is let Into the pipes, as the blasting would "endanger the stability of the pipes. The "lowest estimate of the cost of the work ls "$2,000,000, which will be borne by ihe city. "The Department of Public Works, which has "tbe matter In charge, bas Issued bonds Irom "time to timo as the work bas advanced, and "In that manner has raised money to carry on "the work." financial. vT j?
