The Panam? being bound up as co laterals for tbe Pacific Mall, shared its fate. -Women's rights have at length been re ' cognized in high quarters In England. A de? partment of the civil service, known as the local government board, has Just appointed a j lady, poor-law inspector at the very handsome salary ol $2000 a year, to report upon the domiciles and the treatment ol children who are "boarded ont," after the system which ls generally adopted In Scotland. -Counsel for Stokes, ol New Tork. who killed Fisk, Jr., on Tuesday served on ;ne s h erin" for the first time the official notice of I Judge Davis's stay of proceedings.

The fact ia not one to add to the prisoner's present reflections. -The BansTpf England covers five acres of ground and employs nine hundred clerks.

At the present rate, the net. profits lrom these twelve furnaces will not be less than one million of dollars per annum. -Alargo fire occurred In New Orleans on Thursday afternoon, destroying nearly six squares, bounded by Clanae, Danphlne and Mandeville streets and Washington avenue. About two hundred houses, mostly email frame dwellings, and their contents were con- j Bumed. The De Soto school-house was aUo burnt. Scarcity of water prevented'the fire , men lrom doing effective service. A high wind prevailed. The loss ls estimated at two iaodred and fifty thousand dollars; Insurance unkiown. Abont two hundred families are )eft homeless. -It ls pretty generally understood by those In the confidence of sporting circles taut the clans are gathering in Pittsburg, Pa. tor the purpose ol witnessing the prize fight wbich.it bas already been etat ed, 13 expected to come off on the 4th of March somewhere with? in fifty miles af that elly. The principals are Harry Hielten, of Philadelphia, and Byron Campbell, of Wlikesbarre, tbe former being Of Irish and the latter of Welsh birth. The match Is for a purse of two thousand dollars, and tbe fighting weight of the men Is lo be one hundred and thirty pounds. -A large and Influential meeting was held on Thursday night at tbe Grand Central Hotel of the Southern Association of New Tork, composed of members of the leading South? ern firms doing bnslness In that city, together with delegates lrom every Southern State, ex- j cept Missouri. The association, which came j Iluto existence a few months since, is estab? lished for the purpose of lormlng a social club composed exclusively of Southern men of so? cial position. The officers consist of a presi? dent, four vice-presidents, corresponding and recording secretary, together with an execu Uve committee composed ol representatives from each of the Southern States. Toe asBO olatlon strictly exclude? politics, as well as gambling of any description, and purposes es? tablishing In New Tors: City a permanent club bouse, with reading room and other ac? commodations attached. P. McL. Burbank, president, Colonel Hart, of Georgia, and many others addressed the meeting. -The bankers and brokers In Wall street utilized the leisure which tell to them on Washington's birthday by Indulging in a livia amusement, which though not contained in the ordinary routine of either social or busi? ness transaction?, was nevertheless tempora? rily awarded with an emphatic recognition The sport on Ibis patriotlo occasion consisted of a cock-fight, lu which Wall street was pitted against New Jersey. Fifteen couples were matched Tor the occasion, and tbe pit was filled with men who, for the most part, hailed from financial circles. The fighting was viewed with Intense eagerness, and the bull and bear tendency figured In the per? sons ol the backers ol the stags, who were confident ol the prowess of their game. New York fought the celebrated Madcaps, bred lrom stock" which was quoted unsurpassed for its belligerent reputation, while New Jersey showed a variety ot stratas not less famed in the record of the main. There was not a little excitement occasioned by the varying success of the stags, and heavy odds were offered now on one Bide and now on the other. There were twelve fights, concluding with a battle royal, at the termination of which New York was declared lhe winner amid loud huzzahs. After balancing their sheets, the bankers and brokers closed the pit and departed for their hearths and homes amid tbe best of humor. Tbe Unpaid Taxe?. A circular letter was issued last Saturday, by Comptroller-General H?ge, to each of the county auditors, requiring them to instruct the connty treasnrers to proceed at once to issue ex?cutions for the unpaid taxes of 1872-73, with the addition of the twenty per cent, penalty imposed by law. The county treasurers will thns be required to make a speedy collection of all unpaid ta, es by dis? tress or otherwise, the personalty of the tax? payer being required to be first exhausted before proceeding against his real estate. The publication of the lists of delicquent taxes ls to be commenced on April 15tb, and the sales of real estate for unpaid taxes are fixed for May 6th. Tho Manufacturen;' Bill. I The friends of enterprise and progress in Georgia are felicitating themselves, and with very good reason, upon the judicious action of its Legislature in exempting from tax? ation, for ten years, the capital invested in certain manufacturing enterprises which promise to add greatly to the material ad- j vancement of the State. Sooth Carolina bas been less fort?nale in this ?respect. A sim? ilar bill was introduced at the recent session of the Legislature, and apparently had every prospect of an easy passage, as a clear ma? jority in each house were io favor of its pro? visions, bnt it failed; and its failure, like that of the Charleston Water Bill, was the result simply of the desperate filibustering of a j small bot canning minority. Tbe bill origi-1 nated in the noose, and passed that body I withont opposition. Thence lt went to the Senate, and it was found that in that body I two-thirds of the members were friendly to I the measure, bnt the half dozen turbulent spirits who have opposed almost every sen eible scheme tbat has been introduced, managed to load it wiih a variety of absurd I amendments, which were of course rejected by the House. In such cases a long routine of "conferences" between the two branches of the Assembly is carried on by means of j joint committees, hot this is a process thai requires time, and the delay proved fatal to the bilL The date of final adjournment was I fixed and near, the appropriation bill had to be pat through or the members wonld get no money, and in the rush and bustle of the I last day's session the manufacturers' bill went by the board. 1 Tho Strike? in England. The great strike of the Welsh colliers and iron-workers, which bas endured for fall two months, at last betrays signs of yielding; but it is only after almost incalculable injury has been done In the extinction of blast fur? naces, the flooding of mines, the waste of capital, the impoverishment of thousands of poor families, and the prospect of a terrible I fuel famine throughout Britain. The lowest computation of the number of those who, induced by the appeals of the trades-a nions, struck work in the last week of Dece'mber, puts them at sixty-thousand ; and as lt would be a low average to estimate that each man's family comprises at least two persons be-1 sides himself, lt ls evident that nearly or quite two hundred thousand hungry souls have been all this time without the means of sustenance. Indeed, the misery became at one time so palpably grievous that extensive charities had to be organized to avert im? pending starvation and death by cold. The multitude of the strikers ls said to have re-1 ceived in aggregate three hundred thousand dollars in weekly wages; lt is easy to con ceive in what a condition the subtraction of this sum would leave the rickety villages and hamlets which cluster about the mines, and how nearly they must have approached to a period of actual and wide-spread famine. The miners have lost two millions of dollars in wages, and the unions have only con? tributed seventy-five thousand dollars to their wants. Scarcely less deplorable have been results of the strikes upon capital and production. One of the largest industries of England has j been crippled and the market has been in a miserable state of fluctuation and suspense. Trade bas suffered materially, and, especial? ly in the vicinity of the strike, the condition of the trades-people bas been bnt a degree less deplorable than that of the self-victim? ized laborers themselves. The resumption j of work, or rather the submission of the j men. will not restore immediate activity; for j lt takes time to rebuild the fires in the great j furnaces, and to pomp out the leaky mines. And the end of it all is, that the masters having proved obdurate, the men are being forced in large numbers to accept the terms against which they revolted after all, and to proceed to their occupations, after a total loss of two months, at the reduced wages ordained by the furnace owners. j The Same Old Story. rFrom ihe Columbia Carolinian ] The entire appropriation o? $260,000 tor legislative expenses, seems to bave been ex? hausted, and still lhere are scores of claim? ants hungering and clamoring for their pay. We are Informed ihatthe treasury was literal? ly besieged yesterday, but the stern reply of | the wearied treasurer sounded sad on tbe air, "Too late, too late." The treasurer ls right, of course, if the appropriation has been ex? hausted, to refuse the payment of another cent. Once open the door, and the whole or the greater part of the taxes may go in this way, as they did lust year. But how is lt, and who ls to blame for this outrageous and ex? travagant expenditure In the way of legisla? tive expenses ? There are one hundred and fifty-six members-in both houses. Their salary is $600 per annum, and their aggregate pay would be $93,600. The number of attaches are thirty-two in the House and some eight teen in the Sena' e, titty lo all. Their average pay cannot exceed $4 per day. This would, then, be $2 JO per day, which, multiplied by the number of days ol the session, ninety, which includes even the recess, would be $18.000. This, added to the pay of tbe mem? bers, $93,600, sums up $111,600. The differ? ence between tbis and $260,000 is $148,400, which remains to be acoounted for, the devil only knows how. Pub. Doce. The debate in Congress the other day upon Oeneral Banks's amendment to the civil ap? propriation bill prohibiting the publication of books and documents by government tor gra? tuitous distribution was very amusing and in? structive. Congressional documents have always been a favorite means of conciliating constituents and keeping the government printer good-natured. Ii has been lound easy at a small cost for ambitious Congressmen to mall a few thousand patent office- reports to mechanic?, and agricultural theories on drain? age and subsoiling to farmers, lo Indicate that these men were the political friends of their representative. The only drawback to such lit? tle courtesies is that they are never read, and yettbey constitute an enormous drain upon the national treasury, which the people have to pay for. In the light of such notorious lacts, Mr. Hoar's argument against the amendment, that the people would be deprived of a promi? nent educator and left to ihe arrogant leash? ing* ot tbt public press, is pitiful twaddle. The picture ol an enlightened voter turning from bis live newspaper to be taught by the dry and dreary tomes that come from the government printer, la too ridiculous lo reason against. Perhaps tbe tons of patent office reports that are distributed through the garrets of the nation might make libraries according to Mr. Pollpbar's plan, or the re? ports of agricultural commissioners as Inter? preted by Mr. Cox post ihe farming element ? in bucolic classics. But apart from such con? siderations Mr. Hoar's system of national edu? cation will hardly find general favor, while General Banks's amendment appeals to the good sense of the whole country. Brandy or Tea. The question of replacing brandy by an allowance of lea ls occupying the serious at? tention of tbe Buselan military authorities. According to the Viedomosti, of St. Peters? burg, the Minister of War bas submitted the question to the deliberations of '-Specialists," who, belter iban any one else, can appreciate the utility and the results produced by brandy and tea. The general opinion In military cir? cles ls strongly in favor of Ihe use of tea; but lt appears to be doubted whether lt can lake the place of brandy without causing too great an excens In the budget set down tor the main? tenance of the troops. It results from calcu? lations made by Dr. Steinberg thai an annual ration of tea and sugar would cost 322 roubles 15 copecks tor every 100 soldiers, while a ration of brandy costs only 30 roubles 60 co? pecks-ihe difference being 282 roubles 55 co? pecks. The pound of tea ls estimated at four francs; and the Russian army numbers, as we have recently been told, about 1,500,000 men on a peace fooling. It ls therefore highly pro? bable that the military authorities will lake some time to consider ihe advisability of j aacpting Buch a costly change. A Profane Retort. When Messrs. Eldridge and Toting, of Geor-1 gla, closed the debate on the report of the j Credit Mobilier Committee, Mr. Ritchie, ol Maryland, offered a resolution censuring all the members implicated lo the dirty transac? tion-Ames. Bingham, Brooke, Dawes, Kelley and Garfield. Mr. liing nam indignantly ob? jected to the Introduction ot the resolution, to whom Mr. Ritchie replied with the pat quo? tation: "So rogue e'er felt the halter dr^w With good opinion of tbe law." The Obloman profanely retorted, "Yon are a "damned fool." Tbe members were called to order and the House adjourned. ?cgal Noiicis. THE STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA.
