Address RIORDAN, DAWSON & CO No. 10 Broad Rtreet. Charleston, S. WEDNE8DA.Y. FEBRUARY 26, 187 THE CHARLESTON DAILY NBW8 "ls deBl "ted as the newspaper for tbe pnbllcatlo "all legal notices, and official advertlseme "for the County of Charleston, under tbe "of February 22d, 1870, entitled an act to r< '.late the publication of all legal and pc "notices." _ _ unsm OT Tia DAT. -A son of Mr. Walter, of the London Tit was recently married to a niece ol the Ear Litchfield. -FlT8 hundred and thirty women In United Stales are doctors, twenty-lour dentists, five lawyers and sixty-eight pres ere. -The bakers of Stuttgart, Germany, hi notified their employers that they will ni lo a strike unless they have an lacreas* pay and reduction ot hours o? labor. -The Virginia Legislature bas passed bill entitled an act (or tbe protection of oyste and to obtain revenue for the privilege taking them within the waters ol the co monwealth. -The Alta California bas tbls arums: : answers to correspondents: "Discontent Wife-Whether yon can safely sweeten yo husband's coffee with sugar of lead will depei a good deal on the Intimacy of your acqnalt ance with the attendln .. physician." -Theappeal of Edwin James for readm alon to the English bar has been refuse James waa dismissed from the English t some years ago tor alleged dishonorable cc dnot, emigrated to New York, where he i sided for some time, published several bool and returned to London recently. -It Is stated that a Connecticut railroad about to make a trial of the so-called pap oar wheels. These wheels are costly, but rt safely and easily. Tney have been kuov some time to car builders, but their lntrodu lion Into general use has been prevented 1 the expense. Sheets of common straw pap are forced Into a compact mass by a pressa of three hundred and fifty tons. The mass i paper Is turned perfectly round, and by pressnre of twenty-five tens, a bub ls force Into a hole In the centre. This paper wbee by a pressure of two hundred and fifty toni is next forced Into a steel Ure with ooe-fourt inch bevel noon Its inner circumference. Tw circular plates are then bolted on to the til to keep the paper filling In place. By this a: . rangement the steel Ure rests upon the PB pc only, and partakes ot Its elasticity. It : claimed that these wheels wear longer tba those nf any other description, Injure th tracks- lesa, and run with less noise. -An unpleasantness threatens the Saman Bay Company before they have had a chane to -piant the'r banwx In the soil of their nev acquisition. A menace, more than a speck o war, confronts the colony, so rich In resource and opportunities, recording to tbe prospec tus, before lt can be dedicated to the peacefu pursuits of commerce. The rumored recon cilfeUpn of Cabrai and Luperon, the r?volu tlonary generals cf the island, seems to b< confirmed, and the laot bodes iii for the In? laut enterprise. Whatever may be said o the revolutionary talents of the Insurgen chieftains, their seal and courage are on doubted, cod they object totals peddling awaj of a rat slice of their island upon which their eyas and hearts have long been fastened. Tbe recall.of Lu peron from Hay tl by Cabrai,, and the Issue of a proclamation summoning the Dominicans to arms, Indicate that operations are about, ta begin, and the colonists may soon find themselves at very duldrent work from what tbe^ counted upon when they set sall In the "good Tybie."" That hotel In'sections will have to be converted Into barracks, and the surveyors, engineers, 4c, will need to postpone their labors for the city ef the future, and turn their talents to the construc? tion of fortifications. -Some headstrong explorers of the myste? ries ot. Vesuvius recently undertook to satisfy their curiosity regarding the burning moun? tain by entering the crater, and In doing so disappeared forever in the gloomy void, In which they are supposed to have suffered a terrible death. Toe viotlms of this frightful disaster were Jean Le Mieux, a Belgian, and Louis Schmidt, of Berne, Switzerland. Tbey left their boarding-houses early In the morn? ing io company with an exploring party, and haring reached tbe summit ot the volcano, Le MU .ax called upon any one of the company to Jo'n him In golog down the crater. Schmidt arreed to aooompany him, and despite the re? monstrances of their friends, each look hold ot the loops carried by the guides and were lowered down to firm ground. Contrary to the advice of the practiced guides they let go their hold of the looped ropes and ventured Into the darkness of tbe crater's recesses; Whether they were smothered with fumes of sulphur, or mlssiog a step were hurled into the unknown abyss of the volcano, can never be known, for the friends vi tbe unfortunate men waited in vain tor their comrades, and were finally compelled to abandon all hope of their reappearance. The' gulden were lower? ed down repeatedly, and several of the ex? cursionists went down as lar as the ropes would allow In search of the men, but nothing contd be seen or heard cf them, and they were given np as lost. -The following gossip about the approach? ing inauguration comes to us in a Washington telegram : "Thousands o? persons In distant Cities have engaged quarters at the hotels and boarding houses lor inauguration week, and large ims have been paid tor front rooms on Pennsylvania avenue lrom which to see the procession. Tickets for the ball are selling rapidly. The arrangements for the inaugu? ration ceremones are fully matured, and will be carried out upon a scale far exceeding any display heretofore attempted In the history of the republic. There will be about fifty differ? ent military and civic organizations In the pro? cession, each preceded by a band o? music, which will form a parade only equalled at the time Grant and Sherman's armies were receiv? ed here at the close of the war in the spring of 1865. The inauguration ball will be the grandest ever given In this country. The ball building is tbe largest ever erected, being three hundred and fifty feet In length by one hundred and fifty feet In width, and its com? plete appointments lor comfort and conveni? ence are unsurpassed. The West Point and Naval cadets will attend the ball In force, as will numbers of the officers and members of tbe other military organizations. Ihe Presi? dent and vice-President, cabinet ministers, senators, representatives, foreign ministers and distinguished civilians from all parts of the Union will be in attendance. On the 5th of March the President, secretary of war and the secretary of the navy will review the West Point and naval cadets. A portion of Penn? sylvania avenue will be assigned for their pa? rade and manoeuvres. As numerous volunteer organizations will be la attendance, lt is pro? bable that several of the broad avenues will be occupied by them in their competitive drill. This will afford an opportunity to compare the West Point school with the volunteer system. The general secretary of the inaugu? ration commltUe has received a communica? tion from a gentleman in Ithaca, New York, who recommends that Instead of a grand ball on Inauguration evening they bold a grand prayer meeting. The communication was properly referred." Tue Spring Jobbing Trade. The experience of the past four years has conclusively shown that the Interior mer? chants who do the safest and most remune? rative business, are those who buy small stocks, and renew them as often as may be necessary during the season. They avoid all excessive outlay of capital, or damaging expansion of credit There is no stale slock on their shelves, or in their showcases. They keep abreast of the changes in styles, and can always offer their customers the latest varieties to be found in metropolitan markets. How is this done? Simply by making their purchases in Charleston, in? stead of rushing headlong to the North, where they are little known and know little, and where, besides, they must bay largely to warrant the expense of their journey. Year by year the merchants of the interior of South Carolina, and of Georgia and Ala? bama, have become belter and belter satis? fied that this is their trae business policy. It only remains to convince them that Charleston is the best Southern market for their purpose; and the ourse of trade is signal evidence that this bas pretty general? ly been done. Last year the business of the Charleston jobbing bouses was from fifteen to twenty-five per cent, greater than in 1871, and the representatives of the principal firms, who canvassed this State and adjoin? ing States daring the early winier, are satis? fied that the Charleston jobbing trade, this spring, will exceed that of any previous season since tbe close of tbe war. This bas given additional stimulas to the houses in the jobbing trade, who aro determined that their customers, whether old or new, shall have no cause to regret having como to Charleston. We have personal knowledge of the fact that ali the Charleston jobbing booses have bad their buy eis lo New York for several weeks, and have made ample preparations for an early and extensive business. They have bought Urger docks than ever before, and their friends in the Interior may count on finding in this city whatever they desire. In clothing, dry goods, fancy goods and no lions, hats and caps, shoes, and drugs and medicines, the room for choice und selection will be abundant. And it will be found also that, in price and terms, Charleston knows no superior in the Southern States. The writer of this bas seen and admired tire vigor with which the Charleston jobbers are making ready for the spring campaign, and we nan witb confidence advise the mer? chants of tbe interior to make a visit to this fair city before encountering the annoyances of a trip to the North. Our word for tl 1 he will lind that be can deal more advantage? ously with his own people, who understand his peculiar wants, than with comparative strangers, who know nothing ot the require? ments of the country trade of the South. Trained Norses. A number or philanthropic ladies and gentlemen of New York have undertaken the establishment of a- training soboo! for nurses, with ample accommodation, and adequate support. The project originated in the daily visits to Bellevue Hospital of a committee appointed: in tbe spring of 1872 by the State Charities Aid Society. While Buding much to praise io this institution, the committee came to the conclusion that one thing was imperatively necessary to any reforms that might be recommended-the nurses must be of a higher class, and be thoroughly trained. Those at present em? ployed are described as illiterate, often im? moral and intemperate, and so iguerant and indifferent to the wants of the patients as constantly to neutralize the efforts of the physicians. The medical board or Bellevue, long aware of the fact, now co-operate heartily with the ladles and gentlemen who have resolved to furnish this and other insti? tutions with competent and trustworthy nurses. For this purpose, as Boon as twen? ty thousand dollars are subscribed, a lady superintendent will go to England and thoroughly acquaint berseir with all the de? tails or ber duties at the excellent Bchools of St Thomas Hospital and the Liverpool Infirmary. Head nurses will be appointed, medical lectures will be delivered, and six wards of Ballevue will be under tie control or me new establishment. The promoters or this great and much needed reform hope, in time, to round a college chartered by the State. In London, Paris, Liverpool, and other cities, such -Homes" for trained nurses exist. The nurses trained by them perform their duties intelligently, and with practiced skill, as the course of training is very thorough, and even severe. They go wherever called-to private families ns well aa to the wards of the hospitals, and in time of war take care of many of the Bick and wounded. Such BCDOOIS In thia country aro urgently needed agencies for combating dis? ease ard death; are among tho best and most Chiistian charities, as they comfort the helpless, the poor and in?rm. The Last of the Blue Ridge Scrip. The Columbia Carolinian, in a commend? atory notice of the action of the Legislature in repealing the law authorizing the issue of the Blue Bidge ?erip, remarks : "The decision ol the Supreme Court in the cases now pending before it in relation to the validity of the scrip, would probably have set? tled the matter any way, in accordance with the right and the wishes and interests of the good citizens of the State. It ls understood that it has been left to the hands of Judge Willard to frame the decision ot the court, and lt ls pretty safe to conclude that he will not difl?r much from his famous order of in? junction made last summer, and which em? braced substantially tbe same points which are involved in the present case. But lt ls well, tn our opinion, that the Legislature should have spoken out so emphatically upon the subject, and, by a vote ot eeveniy-flve to Ave, announced their verdict against the scrip, despite the desperate efforts of a few lovers of the unfortunate paper. Surely this action of the Legltlature disposes of the scrip beyond all chance of resurrection" The Coal Question in England. The effect of the great strike In South Wales has begun to make itself felt in Eng? land, where the prospect of a coal famine ls occasion in cr great alarm among all classes of people. Already, within a feW days, the price ol coal baB advanced from forty to fitly shil? lings a ton, and lt ls expected that lt will soon advance to sixty shillings. The present sup? ply ls much below tne demand, and there ls apparently no hope of Its being Increased. The check on production Ia mainly applied by tbe miners, and at present the owners are only tr.king advantage of the reduction of the coal supply which has been caused by their men. In addition to the unfavorable apprehensions occasioned indirectly by the strikes, there 1B a growing appreciation of the conclusion ar? rived at some time since by the royal commis? sioners appointed to Investigate the sut-Ject, that tbe supply of good coal near the surface Is nearly used up, and that mining is soon lo be attended with serious difficulties. Abso? lute exhaustion, however, ls a lar-off story as yet; but there is no doubt that the day of cheap coal In England ls past, and that one of the principal mainstays of British commerce is fast going from under lu Inaccurate statements. Slr Arthur Helps, author of "Friends in Coun "ell," lu a recent literary address remarked that no one bad really grasped a subject or mastered a thing unies* he had first depicted or deecribed IL This course, he said, brought with lt the necessity of accuracy, and on this point he expressed the opinion that Bil the intentional lying In the world did not do one-quarter of the mischief that Inaccuracy did. Inaccuracy, he said, caused all the mis? representations, misunderstandings, misquota? tions, and nearly all those things that lead lo the great quarrels between man and man, and nation and nation.
