THE CHARLXSTON DAILY NEWS "ls designa "ted as the newspaper for the publication of j "all legal notices, and official advertisements, "for the County of Charleston, nnder the act "of February Md, 1870, entitled an act to regu? late the publication of all legal and publio J "notices."_ KEW8 OF THE DAT. -A new poem by Tennyson ls announced. -Toe daughter of tbe Khedive of Egypt ls I to have a 150,000 outfit from Paris. -A dispatch from Manchester announces that several cotton spinners in that city have j failed. -Amputation at the hip ls considered one of the most difficult operations in surgery. Three successful oases, however, were reported last year, one In Detroit, Mich., and two In Eng land. -The annual sale by auction of the pews in Rev. Henry Ward Beecher's church, Brooklyn, took place .recently. The total amount of I rent and premium was $60,230, an increase of $350 from last year. -The.Shah of Persia wishes to make his Eu? ropean trip without ostentation, sp he will take with him only three princes of the blood, th ree ministers of the first class, seven of the second, and thirty attendants. -Henry G. Bowen, of the Brooklyn Union, has begun libel-suits against the New York | Tribu ne Association and Whitelaw Beid, T. N. I Booker, George Ripley, Patrick O'Rourke and John Hay, individually, for reprinting from the Brooklyn Eagle an article charging bim (Bowen) with being the author of the Wood? hull scandal against Beecher and others. -A lady ID San Francisco recently opened a letter addressed to her husband, and found therein a circular from a bogus currency firm, offering to Bend a largo amount of counterfeit j bills In exchange for a small amount of gen nine coln. The lady was taken by the scheme, sent the money, and the next day was called I upon by one of the swindlers, who, very I much to her surprise and horror, she found to be a United States detective. -The Pall Mall Gazette says that a proposal has been put forth to recognize publicly and solemnly the marriage of King Vlotor Emanuel ?with the Countess Mtraslosi, in which case that lady would beoom* Queen ol Italy. Sig? nora- Batumi'and Menabrea are favorable to I the proposal, btu lt ls opposed by Prince Hum bert and the present Government. If lt should be carried out, a change of ministers would ne doab toce nr. -Extracts'from the yearly circulars of I prominent Liverpool cotton brokers say the j cotton trade was not so good In 1872 as In the previous year, and the rates obtained were not even remunerative. The spinners and manufacturers commence the new year well under contract. Business for the present will be mainly Influenced by the quantity of lm- I ports, and the present scarcity ls likely to be Udfd over without any enhancement oil prices; - -Lidies recently returned from Parla say that the latest style of ornament to wear with a necklace, ls one of tne.pli-faahloned min la turee painted on ivory s&a set In the old-fash- I io ued rad; gold. Those who po* se ss no suet Heirlooms are having them painted and set In as .exact imitation as possible of th? old style, lb ese ml ala tures are quite large, but j are very handsome and expensive, and fashion I m^kes them the proper and suitable thing tc depend from a ribbon or necklace. j -The compositors of the N. Y. Tribune, at I a meeting last week, approved of the pro po- j litton that the printing offices In the United States give one or more pounds of old typo each for the purpose ot making a statue of Horace Greely, lo be erected over his grave in Greenwood, and ask the compositors of the oona try to give the. proceda of one thousand ems. to ba set op on February 3d, the sixty second anniversary of the birth of Mr. Greeley, the money to be forwarded to the president of the New York Typographical Union, No. 6, at 22 Duanes street, of which union Mr. Greely I va J the first president.. -The Oonrler des Etats Unis, a French paper published In New York, In commenting I on the death of Nepoleon III, declares that at I the . French establishments where Its com patriots congregate In that city, the news was race! rad "with the same bitter smile indica I tlve of satisfaction and disdain." The Courier thinks the announcement, was received with tn? same Indifference in France, and adds: "Napoleon Ul died at Sedan, two years ago; j the phantom ot Chlselhnrst did not exist for France, and lt was but an i ilusi?n cherished by a handful ol ambitious persons, without ' consistence and without echo, that there still ' existed-almost nominally-a Bonapartlst ' party." -The ?ollector of the port of New York re- ' eel ved informiUon the latter part of last month that the great metal firm of Phelps, , Dodge ? Cc* had defrauded the government to the extent of one million dollars by means of false Invoices ol imported goode. The cus? tomhouse regulations are that Invoices sworn to by The importers must accompany the mer? chandise before it can pass from the control of the officers. This the firm In question had done, but, as is alleged, were accustomed lo have another set of invoices sent by mall, which they rued In the regulation o? their prlcee. A couple of weeks ago David Dudley Field was addressed by a young man and congratulated upon his success In prevent? ing Phelps, Dodge A Co. irom sending Admiral Nelson to Slate prison lor bur? glary. The young man upon being questioned said that he had been with the firm and was dis? charged by them for reasons that he didn't consider sufficient, and had taken pains to possess himself of some ol their secrets, and showed copies of Invoices which he had taken. He desired to put these evidences of fraud In? to the bands of the proper authorities, and to retain Mr. Field as his attorney. The latter at once associated Colonel Ethan Allen with him, and the invoices compared with those at the customhouse were found to be over one mil? lion dollars In iavor ol the firm. Proceedings were at once commenced by Judge Davis, then district-attorney, but his warrant was not executed until Colonel Bliss stepped into office. On that very day Phelps, Dodge & Co. were notified the government bad commenced action for the recovery of one million dollars, and although they claimed to be Innocent, they agreed to compromise by paying the gov? ernment two tundred and sixty thousand dol? lars. The district-attorney had no power to settle the case, and sent the proposed offer to compromise to Washington for the considera? tion of the secretary of the treasury. The Washington leight Infantry. The "appeal," adopted at the meeting of the honorary members of this ancient corps j on Saturday, and which we publish in another column, will be read with interest. In its simple and unvarnished story, it weaves a narrative eloquent in its historic revelations, and pregnant in ita disclosure of how large was the infusion of high citi? zenship, wbicb found its play and exercise so wholesomely all through the career of this venerable organisation. An association so interwoven with the local pride of our old | city ought not to be permitted to decay, and we are sure the movement, now so hap? pily began, will eventuate in deserved anc cess. _ _ Oar Rational Debt. Secretary Bontwell not only admits that there is an increase of the public debt to the amount of $1,68*, ?07, for the month of De? cember, but intimates that we may expect other increases in the fntnre. He tells U8 lhat the taxes have been too greatly reduced by Senator Sherman's bill of the last session, and that this ia the canse of the Budden change in tbe character of the monthly debt statements. This is an admission that the Boutweilian treasury policy bas exhausted itself, and that the people most either give op all idea of having their taxes reduced, or prepare to see the public debt grow larger. Senator Sherman, who ia chairman of the | Senate committee on Unance, bas declared that the taxes may be further reduced, and j the treasury still be able to Bet aside $60, 000,000 to the reduction of the public debt; and as the secretary of the treaaury has called thia opinion in question, we shall probably have a defence of it from the Ohio senator. It Ia only a month since the, secre? tary himself estimated that the receipts of ? revenue for the year ending June 30, 1873, would be $324,905,000, and the expenditures $275,694,189, and told us that there would be $48,370,811 that might be appropriated to payments on the debt, leaving still his nana! balance of $100,000,000 in the treas? ury. Why these estimates are suddenly proved to be at fault in the midst of the un? exampled prosperity that the treasury re? ports boast of, and why the public debt, which bas been steadily decreaslog for seven years, at the rate of seven millions a month, Bbould now begin to grow at the rate of I nearly two millions a month, are questiona | to which the people wonld like to have aa anawer. ? . Journalism. JOURNALISM IN TBE UNITED STATES. By Frederic Hudson. New York: Harper ? Brothers. Year by year the newspaper press is growing in power and influence, and a j work like that before us, embodying all the J facts bearing upon the science and history of journalism In this country, that a keen, industri?os and able journalist has been able to gather, could hardly fail to be full of interest. Mr. Hudson was managing editor of the New York Herald during a long se? ries of years, covering the period which Baw the rise of that journal from the position of an obscure and rather low penny Bheet lo , that of the most active and enterprising, if j not the greatest, newspaper, in the world. He divides the history of American newspa? pers into six eras, beginning with the first attempts- in Massachusetts, from 1690 to 1704; the second, embracing the Colonial press, from 1704 to 1748; the third, or Revo-1 lutionary press, from 1748 to 1783; tbe po? litical party press, covering the fourth pe- j riot], from 1783 to 1832; journalism ina transition state being assigned to the fifth era, from 1832 to 1835, and the sixth era of the independent press, commencing in 1835. Bnt it was impossible, from the very nature of the subject, that this division should have been strict ly. kept np; and Mr. Hudson's book is less a connected narrative than a series of light but carsfal sketches of j leading journals and the men who made | them. Naturally, he gives to the Herald, which, in ita later and mare respectable as? pect, was largely the creation of his own tact and energy, a very conapicnoua place and a representative character which few of ! our journalists will be Willing to concede to it. While bia accounts of Northern papera are marked by great minuteness of detail, he gives but scanty space to the Southern press. This was doubtless owing rather to the want of materials at bis command than to any partisan or sectional feeling; but it is j passing strange that so acute an observer | as Mr. Hodson should have failed to note the wonderful zeal, persistency and success wlih which snch journals as Daniel's Rich? mond Examiner and the Richmond Dis? patch labored to arouse and keep alive tbe popular feeling which for four long years made the South one vast camp, and banded together her sons in armies tbat seemed in? vincible. A few pages are devoted to the career of the Charleston Mercury; bnt even these deal rather with reminiscences of the personal difficulties of members of its staff than wilh ihe influence and characteristics of the great organ of Nullification and Seces? sion. In preparing bis notes on Charleston newspapers the author seems unfortunately to bave overlooked the rich masB of mate? rial contained in Mr. W. L. King'a admira I ble compilation of the records of our local ' prese. Bat with all its shortcomings, roany of which were inevitable in a work of this kind, Mr. Hudson has given us a book which has not a dull page between its covers, and which supplies ns with a compact budget of interesting information, much of which would otherwise soon have become Inacces? sible.

[From the Columbia South Carolinian.] About three hundred negroeB, embracing men, women and children, left on the Western bound train of the Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroad, yesterday afternoon. We understand that they were Irom Laureas and Newberry counties, and their destination waa Tennessee, where they hope to do better than they have been able to do here. A Generous Tribute. The death of Viscountess Beaconsfield hos called forth irom the English press not only i striking testimony to her own worth, but universal tribute of respect and eeteemfor the husband to whom she was so much In encour? agement and inspiration. The most positive ol the Liberal papers are in accord with their Tory contemporaries In crediting Mr. Disraeli with no less genius and political capacity than suavity of manner, manliness of bearing, and gallantry and fairness in political warfare. Death bas Its compensatlons,though they may be Inadequate to assuage the grief created by a great loss; and lt must be some consolation to the stricken statesman to And his lite-long opponents speaking so kindly of him, and bearing cheerful witness to the value lo which he is held by his fellow-subjects. "Honored "in bis rise, respected In hie fall," is the gen? erous eulozy ol the Times, tor years the most I uncompromising o? bis assailants. The tri? bute to his spotless private life ls not less un? stinted; the wife's loving devotion, through so many years, to ber husband, the hus? band's response to her counsels, and reali? sation of the proud expectations which she nourished on his behalf, are fitly called "a "beautiful episode of political lire." It was to the admirable lady whom he preferred for a noble title to himself, and to whose shining qualities he paid glowing public praise, that the young novel-writer owed his successive steps toward the high goalaof political ambi? tion; and when he reached the apex of his up? ward climbing, and stood crowned with the supreme honor attainable by a British subject, his keenest pleasure was In witnessing the loving delight of her to whom the splendid success was perhaps mainly doe. The German Army Organisation. The causes which led to the success of Ger? many In the late war with France have-been extensively studied since by both military and political economists. It baa been held by many that the defeat of the French was due in the malu to overwhelming numbers, which theory, however, does not hold good In the case of the Important victory of Mars-la Tour, when thc; Germans were far Inferior in force; nor in that ol Forbacb, when the two armies were about equal. Colooel C. C. Ches? ney, of the royal engineers, In a lecture at Al dershott, England, finds, after close study of j the subject, that mere numbers afforded but a [ secondary basis of success, and that Germany exhibited la the French war a marvellous or? ganization and unsurpassed strategy and tac? tics. Upon the subject of German organiza? tion he dwelt with especial force, as the very groundwork of a superb military system, and Illustrated lt by narrating the Incidents of a ? visit to a Prussian chief of staffln French ter? ritory, soon after the war, ol whom he said : He was responsible to bis chief for all the daily working of the great machine-an army corps In full strength, and this, too, quartered la a land politically hostile, and yet not gov? erned by martial law-a position perhaps the most trying which a soldier of fine qualities can be placed In. Hts duties woulu oblige him to communicate officially, not only with heads of departments in the corps itself, but with the numerous civil functionaries, some ot French erigin, others imported from Ger? many. And yet be could find time to con? verse leisurely with a stranger, desirous ot picking up all possible information, io answer specldc questions clearly and In detail, and to areid the least show ol hurrying his Inquisi? tive guest away. The secret of this ease of manner and hospitable bearing was revealed la that which struck the visitor so forclbly the moderate nature of his ordinary day's work. Three letters on bis table to answer, and but two registers to look over, formed what may be called the whole morning's stock-in-trade of a functionary whose first duty lt was to think for twenty-five thousand men, Instead ot going over other people's work who could se trusted to do lt for them? selves, or taking their duty altogether out ot the hands of his subordinates to perform it himself In the hurried manner of an abie man, overwhelmed with the multitude of seii lmposed details. He adds : How the Germans have reached this quiet confidence of working lies not tn the individ? ual superiority of their officiais, but in the system of their, employment, under what it is the fashion lo call decentralization, but which really censista In throwing the proper responsibility upon the proper men.
