It is stated that in this expected demonstra? tion seventy thousand colliers are concerned. The great iron interest of Great Britain, which has been so prosperous of late, would suffer from s H ch a strike. -The French government, it IB reported, has jost purchased the secreto! the composi? tion of an absolutely Indelible Ink, which re? sist? the action of every known chemical agent. Thia Int will accordingly not only be used on ali stamped paper in the postal ser? vice and the revenue service, but in the re? cording of all acta of the Asesmbly; it will aleo be sold with stamps In all ibe small shops. -^?Th? evidence-ot Garvey in the Tweed trial in New York on Saturday, showed that wit? ness wa?, instructed to make out his bills, amonntl ng to $395,000, BO that thirty-five per OA0? of their face would pay him. His bills were arranged by Ingersoll, Woodward and Watson, and when money was obtained, Woodward made deposit in the Broadway Bank in favor of Tweed. -through the "ring" arrangements tbe City of New York rad up a debt ot great mag. nitude, the entire sum reaching over one hun? dred and twenty-five millions of dollars. Un? der th? reform regime the last year this enor? mous debt of the city government was re? duced near nine millions of dollars, and lt ls to be boped, with the aid of the Independent press, that this reduction may continue until fife debt Is reduced to a reasonable amount. -The Hon. L. V. Bogy, who has Ju6t been elected to the United States Senate from Mis? souri, starts with a good platform. In his ?peeoh, returning thanks for his election, he pledges hlme?Lr to the support of economical government, decentralization, amnestv. and defence of local industrial Interests.' Mr. Bogy was formerly mayor of St Louis, and is a man or considerable distinction as a thorough business man. -The directors of the Erie Ballway have passed a resolution authorizing the issue ot ten millions of convertible bonds for the pur. pose of Improving the road, reducing the gauge and laying double tracks. It ls stated that lt ls more than probable that the gauge of the road would be changed from a broad to a narrow one from Buffalo to Utica. There la already a third rail lrom Elmira to Waverly, one Bide of the double Une extending lrom Hmlra to Corning. This would enable the Erle to connect with the Lehigh Valley Rail? road, thus giving a through narrow gange road lrom Buffalo to Philadelphia and the South. There might be a third rall hld In time from Elmira to New York. This move? ment on the part of Erle, lt is stated, ls abso? lutely necessary to enable it to compete with its rival, the New York Central and Hudson River Railroad, ander the management ol Commodore Vanderbilt. At a recent meeting ot the directors of the New York Central, it was determined to issue forty million dollars ii bonds, ten mi'lion dollars ol which should be 'n sterling, for the purpose of raising funds to lay two extra tracks along the entire line. -A Washington telegram says: "The decis? ion of the postmaster-general that mall mat? ter not fully prepaid at the office of its mail? ing had to pay double postage, even though one full rate is prepaid, has met with such general opposition and censure that the House committee on postoffices took up the question for discussion on Thursday, and decided unanimously, except one vote, that Mr. Cres? well^ construction ol the law was an im? proper one. The question of the reduction ol letter postage to two cents lor each half ounce was discussed by the committee at leugth, and seems to be favorably regarded. The pcstmaster-general ls understood to favor it. It seems probable the committee will agree to the proposition for the prepayment ot newspaper postage, in order to avoid the transportation of large quantities ol news? papers, which are never paid for, and cot taken out of the office." Tht Death of Bulwer. What a host of recollections is awakened by the curt telegram announcing that ?'Bulwer, tbe English rjoveliat, is dead!" The brilliantly successful career of well nigh seventy years is ended at lost. Mere than half a century ago Edward Bulwer first appeared in print, and bis latest work, the "Lost Tales of Miletus," was pub? lished only seven years since. The veteran writer did not lag superfluous on the stage. Age gave more breadth to bis thought, and new cunning to bis pen. The sentimental? ism, not unmixed with morbid humor, of his younger days, ripened with time, and gave the world, in place of "Falkland" and of "Alice," "My Novel"and the "Caxtons." Nor was Bulwer distinguished as a novelist alone. The long roll, blazoned with the eames of "Ernest Maltravere," of "Rieozi," cr the "Last Days of Pompeii," of "Eugene "Aram," of "Pelham" and "What will he do "with it," is not his sole title to fame. From him came tho "Lady of Lyons" and "Riche "lieu," which hold their place on the stage as firmly as when they took London by Btorm thirty-five years ago. As a political writer Mr. Lytton won considerable distinc? tion; as an orator his only equal was Glad? stone. Forty year? <*f>o he entered Parlia? ment, and in 1858 he oecame Secretary of State for the Colonies. ADCI he had his re? ward. In 1838 he was created a baronet, and in 1866 be was raised to the peerage as Baron Lytton. His life waa full of honor, and his death leaves vacant a niche which DO living man can fill. To be what Bulwer was, bi3 successor most live as be lived, and in the times in which he lived. The genius of these days will not give tbe world another Bulwer, any more than it will give another Dickens. These men did their work, and did it well, and, unless the years can ' be rolled back, none shall take their place. . It cannot be said that Bulwer in his best known romances did aught to elevate his race or his art. Such, perhaps, was not his aim. It contented bim to expose the warring of passion, the strife of love and hate, the sudden fall to earth and the rising with new Btrength; and Burely, in his historical ro? mances, he breathed new life in what is dead, and gave to Harold and the King? maker the freshness of tbe present joined to tbe misty charms of the past. Io his later works Le had a higher purpose. They were books such as gentlemen write and gentle? men read; joining the knowledge of the sage tothe polished wit of the courtier. Lord Bulwer is succeeded by his only Bon Edward Robert Bulwer, best known as "Owen Meredith." The mantle of .the dead man falls upon no unworthy siK^Jers. The License L.aw. The Committee of Seven waited on Mayor Wagoner on Saturday, and submitted to bim the preamble and resolutions, relating to the License Law, adopted by the Chamber of Commerce on the previous day. Mayor Wagen er, upon a mature consideration of the circumstances, consented to extend the time for taking out licenses until the meet? ing of the City Council on Tuesday, at which meetiog the Committee of Seven are expected to present their views and recom? mendations. -This whole matter of the License Law ls sorrounded with difficulties, growing mainly out of differences and divisions of opinion. A large body of citizens object to the law in toto, because they believe that it presses with undue weight upon persons of small means, and because they hold it to be an unconstitutional law, to which the people should Dot submit. Oihers take a wider view, and contend that any license system, except as a polico regulation, is a restric? tion upon trade, and BO injures the city. Others say that the License Law reaches a class of atizeos who would otherwise es? cape from taxation. Others support the License Law because they do not see any way in which the deficit in revenue, caused by its collapse or repeal, could be met, ex? cept by a tax upon real estate which already bas its full burden to carry. There are, indeed, as many shades of opinion as tbere are thinking men, and the subject is the more complicated by the fact that hun? dreds of licenses have already been taken out. "We cordially approve of the action of the Chamber of Commerce. That body did not exceed its authority, and only did Its duty, in moviog in a matter of deep commercial interest which ofT-icts its every member. The committee of Seven is composed of sagacious men who earnestly desire to solve the question amicably. We trust, therefore, that the Committee will ponder lhe question and submit it, lo all its aspects, lo the City Council, which body may, in retort', give the reasons why the recommendations of the Committee shall or shall not be adopted. The public will then have an understanding or the matter, and will do no injustice to either the Committee or the Council. Above all things we caution the Council and the Committee against taking a position which they are Dot prepared lo maintain without flinching. There have been over many flashes In the pan dunrag the past two or three years. ll"! Hi ^riAX\ljD01W A Straggle for Lift. The history o? the State Lunatic Asylum for the past year, as given in tbe report of Superintendent Ensor, is foll of interest. A liberal appropriation was made for the sup? port of the Asylum, bnt not one dollar of it could be obtained from the bankrupt treas? ury. Dr. Ensor had four hundred helpless lunatics to care for, and, again and again, the moment seemed to have come when they must be left to starve, or be cast adrift in the bleak streets of the capital. That the insti? tution was carried OD, in the face of a myriad difficulties, is due to the indefatigable zeal of Dr. Ensor; but even bis energy and per? sistency wonld have availed nothing, with? out the help of some Carolina merchants whose hearts were moved by the sad tale which Dr. Ensor told. Conspicuons amongst them was Mr. Edward Hope, of Colombia. This gentleman did not share in the custom of the Asylum when the institution could pay for its supplies. When the pinch came, and every other resource was exhausted, Dr. Ensor, in September last, applied to Mr. Hope for help, saying that be had bnt "one "day's supplies on hand," and, unless relief | were afforded, the day after the morrow would And "nearly four hundred beings in "the Asylum gunering forsomethiog to eat" IQ conclusion Dr. Ensor said: "In the name "o? God and humanity, I beg you to help "them, if you can." The reply was worthy of the man and the occasion. Only this: "2 will furnish'you one month's supplies Jor "humanity's sake, if I never get a cent for "them." The supplies were furnished; bat, when they were consumed, there was no improvement in the prospect of the Asylum, and "the possibility of keeping the institu? tion open any longer appeared to be at an end." Mr. Hope came to the rescue a second time, and famished Dr. Ensor with supplies for a month more. This kept the Asylum open until the cod of the year. Mr. Hope is a merchant who, in 'iis be? nevolent works, does not allow his right hand to know what his left hand does; but it is meet that pnblic honor should follow bim who, in a time of sore need, is ready to succor the distressed end gives back good for evil. _ The State Debt. The Colombia Carolinian calls oar atten? tion to the fact that the Carolina National Bank published, in the Carolinian of the 16th, a statement of the bonds and sleeks registered in Columbia, amounting to $1,376,726. This makes a total registration of only $2,171,726, ont o ' sixteen millions. The Colombia Phoenix says : "Mr. G. A. "Neufler admits tbat he made a mistake ir "persons, and that it was not a member of J "the Legislature who proposed to get his "flour inspector bill through for one thou? sand dollars." Poor Patterton. [From the Richmond Llspatch.] Patterson, the, carpet-bagger of South Car? olina, who bribed bis way to a seat In the Senate, ls -o be cat-hauled. His credentials are to be referred to the committee of privi? leges and elections, and the accusation of bri? bery brought against bim is to be investiga? ted. Elliott, the member of tbe House from South Carolina, who was his competitor for the Senate, ls bis accuser, and he will follow bim up with a malicious energy. A Contraat. The Norfolk Juornal institutes some com? parisons based on the census between New England and the six Southern Stutes of Dela? ware, Maryland, Virginia and West Virginia, counted as one State, North and Senlb Caro? lina and Georgia. First, as to church accom? modations. The church sittings in all New England are given by the census at 2,208,007; J those in the six Southern States are given by the same census at 3,6GO,084. The difference j in favor of the Southern States is 1,457,877 sittings, or more than 66 per cent. In all New England lhere are 6421 churches; In the six Southern States lhere were, at the same time, 11,667 churches. There is certainly something In this; but the Journal goes further. The white population of New Eng? land and ihe above six Southern States Is very nearly equal. The native white paupers in New England numbered, in 1870, twelve thou? sand nine hundred and seventy-two, or in the proportion ol one native pauper for every two hundred and seventeen native whites. In the six Southern States the native white paupers numbered, In 1870, seven thousand and sixty two, or one native white pauper for every four hundred and sixty-eight native whites. The percentage of pauperism among native New Englanders was more than double ibat of Southerners. The same ratio prevails In crime, the number of ctiminals in New Eng? land being again double that of the above States. Certainly New England need not re? proach her neighbors.
