This would certainly be a novel use for the lightning wblch Franklin called Irom the oloudB; and, were there a law authorizing such a mode of punishment, highwaymen might well shiver at tue..roar or the thunder, reminding them of the shooks they had in? curred. -Falclerl, the favorite servant ol Lord By? ron, ls still living in London, England, whose he bolds tho post of messenger In one o? the public offices. A London paper says: "Gio? vanni Battlsta Falclerl ls the man on whose shoulder Lord Byron died at Missolongbl, at seven o'clock in the evening, on the 19th of April, 1824. He is a fine looking, hale old man o? seventy-five years of age. and speaks with the highest respect of his noble master. In faot, any one that dared speak against the great poet might excite the indignation of Falclerl to a dangerous extent; and we doubt very much if even such Byronic detrac? tors as Mrs. Stowe would altogether be safe. Falclerl used to swim with Lord Byron, and he was with him after the famous feat' of swimming the Hellespont. The old chasseur tells with Infinite pride that, while wearing a costume (uniform ?) similar to that of his ; master, he would be occasionally saluted for his lordship. 'Tltta' ls the Italian abbrevia? tion of his name, and on an informant remark? ing on the difference of climate between England and Italy, be replied that he bad not visited Italy for nearly forty years. He came over with the corpse of Lord Byron was eventually appointed to service in the board of control office, from which, on the Indian Government passing entirely to the Crown, through the influence of Sir John Cam Hobhouse (Lord Broughton,) Falclerl was appointed to the India office, where be ls to be found dally, with every promise of reaching 'a green old age'-one of .'he few connecting links between 'the times ot Byron and our own.' " The Coining Germans. Events are demonstrating the truth of the ; rediction that the recent anti-emigra? tion edicts of the German Government would have the effect of increasing the evil they were designed to check, and that the Germans, though loving their native land with a love wbicb has become proverbial, could not be kept there by any species of prohibitory legislation. Tbe probabilities now are that Germany will send more of her children to find new homes in America during the coming twelve months than in any previous year. An emigration association, numbering eighty-two t h o us aa d persons, bas been formed in Germany,, having already a paid np capital of ti Reen thousand dollars. This 'association baa opened communication with I ? similar society at Washington, and is also | co-operating with another society in Lon? don. It is believed that if proper encour? agement is offered, and proper facilities fur- j Dished, not leas than five hundred thousand German and English emigrants will be j landed on oar shores next season. The larger portion, of these will probably be Germans, as our English cousins have al? ways clung closer to the sod on which they were born than their Teutonic neighbors. To prepare tbe way for this peaceful army of invasion, a commission will leuve Bre? men next month for the purpose of pur-1 chasing tracts of land in the United States , suitable for large colonies; and tho commis? sioners, after a careful examination of tbe country, will report which section of the Union is most favorable for the contempla? ted settlement. Congress will also be asked to pass a law for the better protection of | emigrants-a law, by tbe way, which is sadly needed. We trust the National Legis? lature will not only oiler every possible en? couragement to this enterprise, bat that the press everywhere will lend its invaluable aid. For the Sooth the German element ls, and always has been, specially desirable. Im? pregnated, both by nature and education, with a genuine love of liberty for its own sake, they adapt themselves readily to our institutions, and though always preserving a strong flavor of nationality, they have never failed to manifest their attachment for the home of their adoption by brave deeds as well as manly words. Their contributions to the industry, tbe wealth and intelligence, j of the country cannot be estimated; and these contributions promise to be even greater in the future than in the past. Protection ?nd Cotton Hann fae tu re?. The New Tork Evening Post, in an elaborate article, calls attention to the utter failure of a protective tariff policy to foster and develop the manufacture of cotton goods. That "infant 'industry" is atont as old here as it is anywhere this Bid J of India. We raise the beat raw raterial, and can place it at the doors of our own cotton mills at less price than it can be dropped at the doors of | any other mills in tbe world ; our manufac? turers have the benefit, if it is one, of high duties, and yet we come at certain disagree? able facts and conclusions from the official reports in the censos returns, while any man who wears a cotton shirt, and every woman who wears a calico gown-everybody, in short, who buys, as everybody does, cotton goods for daily nse, knows whether they have any advantage in their purchase over ten years ago. The facts and conclusions are these: **L The number of establishments mar-< faoturlng cotton In tbe United States na? diminished since 1860. At that date there were of these, 1091; but In 1870, only 956. While the value ot the products of cotton has largely Increased In the Interval, the number of the mills In wbloh the manufacture pro? ceeds has thuB decreased almost 13 per cent. This illustrates a tendency, which ls a notice? able feature In many o? our Industries, of the large establishments to become larger, and of the little ones to pass out of being altogether. It certainly seems to be true that industrial operations are more profitable lu large estab? lishments than In small; probably on account of a more perfect division of labor possible In them, on account of the better machinery that can be afforded In them, and on account of the relatively lessened cost of superintend* I ence over the more numerous laborers em- [ ployed lu them. "2. The value of cotton goodB manufactured In 1860 was $115,681,774, and the value of similar goods manufactured In 1870 was 1177,489,739; that ls to say, an Increase of | value In ten years ol over 63 per centum. It ls a matter of some Interes t to Inquire to what this large Increase of value Is due. It Is not due to an increased quantity of raw colton manufactured, lor, as some of our readers may be surprised to learn, there were fewer pounds o? raw cotton manuiactnred In 1870 ?than In 1860-398,307,257 pounds, against ! 422,704,975 pounds. But it 1B due mainly to the Increased cost of the raw cotton. The average price of raw cotton-uplands and New Orleans-for every month of the year 186*0, was 91 cents a pound, gold, In New York ; the average price at the same place, made up In the same way, for 1870, was 16} cents a pound, gold; so that the cost of the same quantity and quality of colton was 71 per centum greater In 1870 than In.1860, and this Increased cost of the cotton, ol course, reap? pears in the Increased valus of the goods, and ls the principal element in the increase of the value. Agricultural products, as cotton, tend naturally to rise in value relatively to manu? factured products; and manntactured pro? duc?s, so far forth as their value ls due to the processes ol manufacture, which are constant? ly Improving, and so cheapenlog, tend to de? cline both relatively to agricultural products, which are less subject to such Improvements, and absolutely as estimated In a fixed stand? ard like gold. "3. The wages paid lu the cotton manulac ture of the whole country were. In 1870, $39, 044,132; and the labor thus remunerated wrought out colton goods worth $177,489,739; so that the element of wages was for that year Just twenty-two per centum of the value of the product. The wages paid in 1860 were $23,938,236, and the value of the product, $115,681,774;and consequently wages for lhat year In cottons were a trifle over twenty per oentum of the value of the cottons. These figures completely expose BB a fallacy what has long been considered as the strongest point of the protectionists In thia country, namely, that the higher wages here put our manulacturers at a disadvantage as compared with loreign manufacturers, and makes 'pro? tection' necessary. Let any difference in the rate of wages between this and foreign countries that any one can reasonably claim be freely granted, and what is the conse? quence ? This diff?rence only applies to one small element in the cost of manufacture, not more loan one-fifth of the whole, and a difference In the rate of wages even ol twen? ty five per centum would only be twenty-five per centum of twenty per centum; that ls to say, five per centum of the whole. "4. This censuB o? colton shows, In conclu? sion, that not even this industry ls as prosp?r? ons among us as it ought lo be. It is, Indeed, more prosperous th?n the woollen industry, which has to pay heavy protective duties on Ils raw material, but both alike are burdened with duties on machinery aod with the duties on Iron and steel In every form. It is not pleasant to be reminded in this official and In? disputable way that che number of cotton mills In the United Slates 1B less than il was even in 1850 by 138; lhat the number of pounds of cotton worked up Into fabrics was I 25,000,000 pounds less In 1870 than in 1860; and that the larger part ol our cotton crop sllll goes to England to be manufactured, and Liverpool prices of cotton govern the market in New York. There are two things that we need In this country, and must have before we can make any fair show in manfacturing cotton or anything else; and these are, first, a sound dollar to measure by; and second, a simple revenue system that taxes only for the sake ol the taxes." The Plea of Insanity. IQ Indiana they are trying to remedy the nuisance of the plea of Insanity In criminal cases. A bill belora the Legislature of that State provides that whenever an Indicted per? son la found not guilty by reason ot bis tem? porary Insanity, the court shall seod mm to a lunatic asylum for a term of years propor? tionate to bis crime. This would be an easy punishment to desperate men, but if they will add an amendment repealing the num? ber of years In the State prison or hanging when dlsohaiged from the asylum, lt might do some good. Bankrnpt Governments. The New York Bulletin Is showing that all, or nearly all, of the leading governments ol the world at this moment are In a state of bankruptcy. A hopeful view, however, ls taken of the conditions of the governments of the United States, England and Holland. France and Italy are la a bad way. So are Austria, Turkey, Mexico, and all the South and Central American Slates. Modern gov? ernment, the editor concluder, la gelling to be a very costly machine, but one of these days must come a grand collapse ol fictitious credit and paper moBey, and with the substi? tution of real values In their place a better state of things will succeed. The Temper of the People. [From the Edgeflold Advertiser.] And as to the temper of the people in Charleston, about additional taxes for the present year, so lt ls In Edgefleld. Our peo? ple are going to pay the laxes now levied, but In doing BO they leel that the ultimatum has been reached, and they vow that not another mill will they pay this year unless torced by the bayonet. Fifteen mills is all they will stand-more than many a poor widow can pay without robbing her little ones of their very bread-and lt will not be healthy lor any man to attempt the collection of any additional taxes unless backed by United States bayonets. "3o far and no tar th er, ls the temper ol the "people" of Edgefleld. The Spirit of Christmas. The Jewish Times, published In New York, bas a kindly and genial Christmas article. It certainly speaks volumes for the progress of the age and the triumph of toleration and hu? man brotherhood when an Israelite journal can speak as follows: "Christmas, as cele "orated In modern limes, shorn of that spirit "of fanaticism which disfigured it lor centu "rles, bears the character ol a Jewish festival, "ls a triumph of the Jewish principle o? love "and charity, and must be welcomed by every "friend of civilization as an advance in the "true path o? progress. Orphans made bap "py, widows comforted, forsaken waifs shelt? ered, cheerless homes made bright, lift hu "manlty upward, heavenward, whether the "day for doing these deeds ls styled Christ? mas, Cbanukah or Purim." Independent vs. Ventral. For the benefit of those benighted persons who think that a newspaper to be independent must be neutral we copy this definition of Journalistic Independence from the Cincinnati Commercial, a paper In every way qualified to give and understand it: "By an independent "Journal we do not mean one that ls neutral. "By independent journalism we mean news "paper management that ls sufficient unto "itself In malters of doctrine, and that in "political relations refuses to recognize as "binding any caucus decree whatever. By "an Independent editor we mean one who "does not submit himself to the uses of any "parcel of politicians who may assume Infalli? bility because they assemble ia the Dame ol "a party. We abhor the notion of a neutral "Journal." financial. QITIZENS' SAVINGS BANK OF SOUTH CAROLINA, CHARLESTON BRANCH, No. 8 BROAD STREET.
