Address RIORDAN, DAWSON A CC , Ne. IS Broad street, Charleston, S. C. SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 1, 1873. THE CHARLESTON DAILY NEWS "ls designa ?ted aa the newspaper for the publication of "all legal notices, and official advertisements, "for the County of Charleston, under the ace j "of February 22d, 1870, entitled an act to regu- j "late the publication of all legal and public j "notices."_ _ NE Ifs OF TBB DAT. -A Washington telegram ol Tuesday to tbe New York Herald says: "Archbishop Bayley, who for the past week has been sojourning bera, the guest of Senator Casserly, left to-day for Richmond, Virginia. He will, in a day or two, proceed thence, via Charleston, 8. G., and Savannah, Ga., lo St. Augustine, Fla., where he will remain some weeks for tho ben eilt or his health. He is accompanied by tbe Rev. Dr. Hecker, editor of tbe Catholic World, whose health ls also feeble." -Among the recent patents granted by the patent office, as published in the Scientific American, Is a gin filing machine, invented by Lewis Monroe Asblll, Ridge, S. C. The In? vention consists la providing the file holders of a gin saw filing machine with certain binged plates, file plates, spring plates and slides, whereby the whole operation of sharp? ening ls made more uniform, tbe necessary time curtailed and the whole operation great? ly facilitated. -Of General John B. Gordon, senator-elect from Georgia, the correspondent of the Cin? cinnati Commercial says: uHe has nothing of I tbe Stephens in bis composition. He ls as different as white Is from black. He is young, ardent, stoat, eloquent; full ot nerve, energy, vim and posh; a brilliant orator, a dashing military officer, and a man who never knew fear. In the Southern army, he won the title of the bravest ot the brave. He la forty years old, well built, about medinm height, and rather slender, and would be handsome if { a piece of bombshell had not made an ugly gai,h ID his cheek. He was In all the battles be could by any possibility get into, and bears j scars all over bis body. This gives him j strength among the colonels, captains, and lieutenants who make op a good porM,?nof? the Georgia Legislature. They remember their 'comrade-in-arms.' Camp-fire and hard? tack ties are not severed in seven years." -Oakes Ames ls a member of the present Congress, and ls not such an acquisitive citi? zen ot Massachusetts as might be supposed, since be vetoed for the Senate's amendment to the bill abolishing the lranking privilege. But here we most qualify the commendation of bis vote by the statement that his term of j service ends on the fourth of March, and the [ law does not take effect until after that time. It is hard that we cannot work the corrnp tionists ont of the slongb, do what we may. A Washington correspondent of the New York Herald writes the following about Ames : "Supposing they should expel you, Mr. Ames ?" asked one of his friends. ''Expel me, slr i expel me 1" exclaimed old Hoax. "What ; do yon mean, slr ? Expel the honestest man in the House 1 Pshaw, they won't do ll; no, sir," and be pot his hand into his side-pocket J to see if the old wallet was atm safe. The I impression prevails among leading members ol tbe House that Hoax ls right. If arraigned be will ask the member whose bands are clean of jobs to cast the first vote. No one knows ; bow many pledges the old pawnbroker has got, and sure as fate Uncle Hoax will discover ] "that m em ora nd u m-book" If be ls pressed too hard. . -Under the head "A Colored Congress? man on the Rampage" the Washington cor? respondent of the New York Journal ot Com? merce says: "On Wednesday evening a num? ber ol Southern members ol the Senato and House met la the marble roo^ of the Senate for the purpose ol Joining lo ; * demand for a Southern representation ID the Cabinet. They finally agreed upon Senator Pool, of North Carolina, aud appointed a committee of three, Messrs. Alcorn, ot Mississippi, Maynard, ol J Tennessee, and Elliott, of South Carolina, to prepare an address embodying tbe views of those assembled, and submit lt to the Presi? dent. When the chair (Senator Sawyer, of South Carolina,) named the committee, Mr. Elliott, (a colored Congressman from South Carolina, an intelligent, bold, aggressive, vin? dictive man, who has all the features of aa African, and Is very black,) rose, and with some show or feeling in the matter, positively retosed to serve on the committee. He saw that a reason was expected, and he gave it. He said that the relations between himself j and the Executive were such as to prevent | communication between them except in cases ol absolute necessity. He warmed Into the subject of personal opposition to tbe President until be could not conceal his bit? terness. The effect upon bis audience was to create a feeling of general disgust. The chair quietly substituted Mr. Rainey, another colored Congressman from South Carolina, a man who is universally respected here, and the meeting was adjourned after a motion bad been passed adding Senator Sawyer to the committee." -Tbe Alexandria, Ya., Sentinel, of Tuesday, tells a sad story of a released Ku-Klux prison? er. It says: "About six o'clock Monday evening, ready man Wm. Woodfield was called on by a citizen and Informed that a man was lying in the snow near the Stone Bridge, across Hood's Run, apparently unable to rise. He at once went to bis assistance, and dis? covered thal he was suffering from a hemorrh? age, and was a stranger In our city, seeking to make his way through, when he had lallen from disease and exhaustion. He was con? veyed to the siation-bouse, where he still lies in a precarious condition and not able to speak above a whisper, and is subject to fre? quent paroxysms and hemorrhages. He gives his narnu as Joseph Sims, and slates that he ls originally Irom Appomattox County, Ya., but has been late a resident of Greenville Dis? trict, South Carolina, where he has (or had) a wile and child; that be belonged to the Sev enth South Carolina regiment in the late war, and was severely wounded at the explosion ol the mine near Petersburg, Virginia, to which he attributes bis sickness now; that about three months ago he was sentenced by Judge Bond to the Albany penitentiary as a Ku Klux, and that a few weeks ago he was turned out of that institution on account of his health, and told to make his way home; that he has, by working and begging, gotten this far on the way, havlDg been given a passage on the Washington ferry boat yesterday, and was trying to get along, his face still south? ward, when he fell from exhaustion yester? day evening. He is about thirty-nine years ot age," T i in rod' s Poema. The long expected edition of the poems of Henry Timrod is issued, at last, from the presses of Messrs. E. J. Hale & SOD, of Murray street, Philadelphia, and, in neat? ness of binding and tastefulness of style, is worthy of the dainty thoughts which it is the means of conveying to the public. These poems are not new to the citizens of South Carolina, who read them, and ad? mired them, in the days before the war, and who were inspired by Timrod's martial strains, when battle was joined and sabres clanked opon the marblo floors of a thou? sand venerable homes. And Ibese people will read them now-read them as the work of one ioto whom God breathed the poetic spirit, who, in the polish, the simplicity and the thoughtfulness or his verse, ranked with tbe Wordsworths and Tennysons of the cen? tury. It is not needful lo enter DOW into an analysis of Timrod's merits. As well might one strive lo express, in words, tbe brillian? cy of the diamond joined to the purity of the pearl. His large heart and large brain were in what be wrote; and who, rising from the reading of bis mournful history, can weigh bim in the scales, and measure, to a pennyweight, with critical exac? titude, the artislic value of bis verse? Snttici- it to Bay that this Carolina poet is an honor to his people and to bis country. Whether or not be is recognized as a poet at home, he ia known os such abroad. What was denied him here, it wonld have been easy for him to obtain on the sterile shores of New England*, Mr. Paul H. H&yne, who edits the vol? ume, contributes a sketch of Timrod's life and character. TbiB work could not Dave fallen into better or more loving hands. Tbe tale is full of pathos; from tbe moment that "blue-eyed Harry" began the battle of life, until, shattered and worn, the broken? hearted poet passed to sleep, io Columbia. It ts, indeed, a piteous tale; and though it may be bard to see how the end could have been otherwise, it is difficult to understand that such a man sbould bave died such a death, even amidst the confusion and disas? ter which followed ia Ibe train of tbe war. Bot what was left undone in those sad days may, in part, be remedied now. The whole proceeds of the sale of tbe new edition of Timrod's poems will he devoted to Ibe bsneQt of bis family. They who ceuld not help Timrod while living, may serve bim being dead. Tbe poems of Timrod are for sale at Holmes's Book House. Price $1 50. A Man of Promise. Mr. John IL James, of Atlanta, who in? troduced himself, last year, to the stock? holders of Ibe South Carolina Railroad Company as the man who ran a bank and a street car company, and was exclusively "for "James," lams up as the leader of a move? ment to oust the present directors of the company and elect an entirely new board. With the modesty which is a pronounced feature in bis character, be assures tbe shareholders that be, and the men whom be will associate with him, will "guarantee to every stockholder a six per cent dividend." This promise bas a pleasant Bound, and there are very few stockholders who would not eagerly clutch at a reasonable prospect of such a consummation. But the question is, Cnn Mr. James do what ibe present pres? ident and directors cannot? We do not think tbat be can. Tbe road, at present, is managed in the interests of Ihe City of Charleston and the State of South Carolina; its business steadily improves in value; it distances its competitors, and whips them whenever there is a fair fight. A Dew man? agement of tbe str.rap which Mr. James would select could not do as well; its aims and objects would be wholly different. But we may give Mr. James ample room and verge, and assume that, under the manage? ment of bis syndicate, tbe road wonld earn as much as it does now. What then ? The prospect of a dividend is not Increased, un? less Mr. James can show that the road ia now dishonestly or extravagantly managed. Is Mr. James ready to bring these chargeB against the present managemenl ? We hold that the South Carolina Railroad is con? ducted with surprising ability and discre? tion, and with a faithful regard to the con? venience or the public, as far as that is con? sistent with the interests of the stockhold? ers. And the stockholders must ihink BO too, or they would change the management. Mr. James invites the stockholders to give him their proxy lo be used at Ibe annual meeting to be held on the 8th of April, and if he can get proxies enough he can revolu? tionize the policy of the road in more respects than one. But be will not get the proxies. So great a power in South Caro? lina cannot be entrusted to Mr. John H. James. _ _ The License Tax. As the proceedings and result of the Con? ference between the Committee of the Chamber or Commerce and the Committee of Ways and Means have already been pub? lished, and as the Committee of Ways and Means have declined to modiry the License law, it has not been deemed necessary, we are advised, to call a meeting or the Cham? ber to-day to receive the report or its com? mittee. Oar Suburban Resorts. The interesting descriptive sketch of Sum merville. printed elsewhere, will remind CharlestoniaDS of the healthfulness and at? tractiveness of a growing suburb which bas Dot had nearly the attention which it de? serves. THE NEWS means to do its part in building up Summerville, as well as Mount Pleasant and Sullivan's Island, and what? ever of interest ocenrs in those places will be regularly reported in these columns. A Superb "Art Journal." The lovers ol art In this counlry are grow? ing more numerous, more tasteful and better informed every day upon the great principles which underlie the objective work of the painter and sculptor. To this large and rapidly Increasing class lt ls matter for felicitation that Messrs. James Sutton &Co., No. 58 Malden Lane, New York, have established, upon te: ms so reasonable as to be within the reach of most, a really mag? nificent art journal entitled "The Aldine." The current number of this periodical (a monthly) is now before us. It contains no less than thirteen illustrations, rare and preelcus specimens of "artistic skill In black "and white." Among the artists represented we find the names ol such distinguished men as John 8. Davis, Tbos. Moran, Paul Frenzeny, Tavernler, Thon, Durand, Grandsire and several others of almost eqi'al fame. Of the pictures themselves, Frenzeny's "Puritans and Cavaliers," with Its fine char? acter touches and vigorous elaboration of de? tail, and Tbon's "Wood an.' Tragedy," which tells its own story at a glance, are decidedly the most Impressive. The humorous piece of this number ls a pro? duction by Peter Moran, (a younger brother of the famous marine painter, Edward Mo? ran.) It Is called "The Critic," and the merit of the drawing ls conspicuous. An artist seen In the distance sketching has left a partly finished picture on his easel by the margin of ! a clump of woods. Two. don key s, a call and * 1 sheep come to Inspect. The drawing of these animals ls simple perfection, and as a reviewer of the picture declares, "would make a hone "laugh, to say nothing of good-natured don "keys." But "The Aldine" has a "Literary Depart? ment" scarcely inferior In general excel? lence to Its artistic section. Its editor is the well known graceful poet, Mr. Richard Henry I Stoddard, of New York city. Mr. Stoddard I takes care to fill each monthly number of his magazine with choice bits of prose criticism or descriptions of natural scenery, and with dainty little poems. Of the latter Mr. Robert Weeks contributes an exquisite series of | '.Love Songs," from which we cull this deli? cate flower of sentiment, set to charming meato: IN TEE GARDEN. " When lilacs were tn blossom, And ?ll the air was sweet, 1 saw her standing tip-toe Upon a garden seat. .. One hand drew down the clastera, The ether bent a spray, Held lt a little minute, And let lt slip away. " Lilacs l yonr life Is lengthened. But you've missed your very best; The best brier lire of lying And dying on her breast!" Subscribers to "The Aldi ne" (which is offer? ed at the singularly cheap rate of $5 per an? num) will be entitled every year to a set of! elegant and costly chromos. The chromos for January, 1873, are two re? markably beautiful pictures by Stahl. They are called respectively, "Crosu?ng the Moor" and "The Village Belle." We nave never be? fore seen premiums of this high quality offered along with any periodical, EogltBh or Ameri? can. To be appreciated, the chromos must be studied with close attention. They are four? teen by twenty Inches each, and are so richly ! colored and so marked by a vivid vraisem. Nance and lints of life-like beauty, that any boudoir or drawing-room (the most r?cherch? in tbe land) would be additionally brightened by their presence. ill anio. WANTEI>, A GOOD FEMALE COOK.
