He Is no longer Isolated in his Paris r?sidence, his friends are allowed to visit him, and no action has been taken for a formal trial nf his case. -The Philadelphia Ledger's New Tork cor? respondent says: "The Washington rumor Intimating that a formidable filibustering ex? pedition ls afoot, with a view of establishing a new f?tate on the Mexican side ot the Bio Grande, is not all fancy work, as your corres? pondent happens to know. New York Is to furnish the money, the Southern and Western cities the men, while the nominal leadership will be a prominent Mexican military govern? or, acting under and by the advice ol a well? town ex-Confederate officer. -A number of returned emigrants have arrived In New York from Brazil. They found, according to their statements, that they bad been deluded into settling in Brazil by assertions that were totally false. Some? thing ot the same kind recently occurred in England, where charges were preferred against the Brazilian agents at Liverpool, when the emigrants again reached that port. Upon the whole, lt may be stated as highly probable that Brazil ls Dot a favorable coun? try for English or American colonists. -Ex-King Amadeus gives as one of his rat? ions for abdicating the throne of Spain thai the Insurance companies asked enormous pre? miums on his life and that ol bis Queen. This ls. probably the first time in history tbat the question of insurance has had an Im portar.: Influence on the destiny of a natiou. To a timid monarch s high premium must cause .bout the same uneasiness as the sanguine ghosts which disturbed the sleep of Middle Age tyrants. It is a delicate but business-like Intimation that the people don't need his services. -?Brigham Young Is now commencing to realise something tangible from his mair'me? nial Investmente. . The anniversaries of ihoie marriages are commencing to occur with as? tonishing frequency. First, there ls a sliver wedding, then a wooden wedding, and a tin wedding, and then another silver wedding, and-adjoining, a glass wedding, and then a tin wedding again, and next night still another silver wedding, and then a linen wedding, followed by a wooden wedding, which ls succeeded by a glass wedding, and to on through the chapter. The effect on the Mormons-the rank and file of the faithful an well be Imagined. -There are seventy-four United States sen? ators. Nine were born in Pennsylvania, six In New York, six in Virginia, Ave In Maine, four in Massachusetts, lour in Ohio, five In Vermont, three In New Jersey, two each in Bhbde Island, Connecticut, Delaware, North Carolina, Georgia, Min?le Indiana, Kentucky, one e-cb In Alabama, 8outh Carolina, Loui? siana, Michigan, Missouri, Tennessee, Ireland, Germany and Wales. Seven Southern States have only four native senators. Pennsylvania Massachusetts, Maine and Vermont have twen? ty three native senators, of whom fifteen arc doing doty In other States. -The New York papers are Indignant thal the street cars should be stopped by the "City Banditti* with as much effrontery and coolness as, In old times, the stage coaches were by Dick Turpin or Claude Duval. The Tribune thus lectures the police: "When lt Is shown thai these highway robberies are common oc? currences the imperative need of equally dar? ing*-action on the part of the police against the thieves becomes apparent And this action moat be offensive. The police must not wait for the highwaymen to commit these crimes. They must Invade and drive them irom their known haunts, and rid the city of every maa whom they have reason to believe ls an adept In crime. Public seutlment is ripe for Just such arbitrary actloo, for pub? lic safety demands extraordinary meas? ures ol relief. The remissness of the police has encouraged the thieves; only unusual en? ergy on their part will convince the banditti ol the advisability of their retiring to safer quarters." The call ls for prompt, vigorous and relentless pursuit ol these criminals, and their speeiy punishment when caught. It certainty ls a pretty Btate of affairs when men ride, In certain lines, at the risk of their lives, and at the still more manifest peril o? their pocket hooke. The American passenger, whether on street or steam oar or boat, Is the most patient and long-suffering of mortals; but there Is a limit-about that ol the patience of Job-when even he rebels, and that limit has been reached and passed In New York. "While tbe Lamp Holt," s oat to Barn." The queerest phase of the Blae Ridge Scrip business ls the sudden and nnexpected onslaught of the Columbia Herald, the Rad? ical administration organ, which now bela? bors the Scrip with might and main, pum? mels it, spits upon il, abases it with the volubility of a Ash-fag and the pertinacity of an office seeker. From the beginning the nnnaprvntivPB have denounced the Scrip as an unmitigated cheat, and the course of the Moses administration, in denying the va? lidity of the issne and tho liability of tho State, meets with general approval. It was not expected, however, that a Radical sheet, which looked upon the election of J. J. Pat? terson with a favorable eve, would be squeamish about a swindle of two or three millioas. This makes the course of our Co? lombia contemporary the more cheering, if the more inexplicable. Its friends bave sold out their Scrip; or it hos shaken the dust of iniquity from its feet, and reformed Ita ways in earnest. In either case the con? duct of the Herald is soothing and gratify? ing to an impatient public. The zeal of converts is proverbial ; the Herald is no exception to prove Ihe rule. No Conservative paper has been as savage in Us, d?nonciation of the Scrip as the Radi? cal organ is. It calls the unfortunate prom? ises lo pay "a snake in the grass," whose rattle is "clear and distinct, and whose "deadly fang gleams like a poisoned dagger "in the night." This is what David Cop? perfield's beery friend would call "double "BtnuDlng." The Scrip is a "masked bat "tery, planted by the Democrats right in "our camp, and loaded to the muzzle, to "break onr ranks and destroy us;" which is very funny, considering tbat the issue of the Scrip was a Radical project, that it was manipulated by Radical officials, is mainly held by Radicals, and will have to be paid by the Conservative property owners in taxes, if ever paid at ali. The Herald de? clares that it will fight the scrip "down to "the water's edge;" becuse "lt is a wrong "apon the people, and a stigma upon the "honor of the party," and because the State has not received for the Scrip "as mach as "the photographic shadow of a considera "lion." To which we devoutly say, Amen ! By way of nailing the Scrip fast in its coffin, the Herald hints that the entire issne is over Ave millions, instead of eighteen hun? dred thousand dollars, and then demon? strates, with unanswerable logic, thai the endorsement of the State on the bonds of t?:e Blue Ridge road "had been already re "leased nader the contract, express and im "plied, in the act of 1871, and that the State "was not in any way, therefore, liable for "the debts of the Company." These elegant extracts from the recent ar? ticles of the Herald must suffice for the nonce. Let ns hope that our virtuous con? temporary will not weary of well-doing, bat will soon open its guns npon legislative cor? ruption and extravagance, and every other public wrong which perverted Republican? ism bas fastened upon the State. The Sale of The Courier. The Charleston Courier, which was first offered by advertisement at private sale some months ago, ls to be sold at auction in this city on April 3d. Ic is announced that this mode of disposing of the property is chosen "with a view of closing the several estates "interested in its ownership," which "can "only be fairly and fully effected bv a public "sale." The Courier ls one of the oldest news? papers in the South, and, np to the close of the war, enjoyed uninterrupted prosperity. Ic is to be regretted that circumstances should now bring it "under the hammer," and we hope that tbe purchasers, whoever they may be, will give the paper new life and energy, and make lt as successful aa It was In the days of yore. Humble Pl? I A meeting of citizens was held at Black's Depot, in York County, on the 8th instant, the object being "to pledge the people to do all in their power to preserve the future peace of tha county, and to assure the gov? ernment of their intention to accord to every person the free exercise or his politi? cal opinions and privileges/' The folio w ug preamble and resolutions were unani? mously adopted : Whereas, President Grant did find it neces? sary, In order to suppress outrages the more effectually, to arrest offenders under the Eo forcement act, to declare martial law In this and several aajoining connues in this 8tate* and whereas toe impression has gone abroad that the lives of thoBe who may differ in po? litical opinions from us are not safe in our midst, thus retarding immigration and pre? venting the Investment of capital in our sec? tion; therefore, be lt Resolved, That In order to assure the United States Government and the world of our peaceful Intent, we pledge our sacred honor use all our exertions to secure peace and good order In the county, and to assist the United States authorities in the exercise of their dntletr, cheerfully and in good faith. Resolved, That lt is our Arm conviction that our people are determined that the Eu Klux other similar organisai ions shall not again exist tn their midst; that ll is iniquitous and destructive to their social and material inter? ests. Resolved, That we cordially and cheerfully endorse President Grant and bis administra? tion, and pledge ourselves to Its support. -The promoters of the meeting and the persons who took part in lt were actuated, doubtless, by pure and unselfish motives, t we are constrained to regard their ac? as an ill-judged and useless crooking of knee. The resolutions, as adopted, ex and justify the official marauding which thousands of men from their homes, the mock trials which sent to the peni tentlary, aa convicts, ten innocent citizens for every one who was legally and morally guilty. This paper bas not a word of apology for the Ku-Klux crimes; but we are not ready to condone the usurpation by the Federal Government or the functions or the State Government, or to admit that the raiding and dragooning in tbe up-couolry were necessary or just. The resolutions of the Black's Depot meet? ing will have no effect in encouraging immi? gration and the influx of capital. Immi? grants will come here when they And that they cou work more profitably in this State than elsewhere. Capital will come herc when it is certain that it can be employed safely at a high rate of interest. Soft soap, in the shape of resolutions, will not bring an immigrant or a dollar. Should the people then remain idle? By DO manner of means ! They should prove by their own lives that any man, whatever his race or opinions, can live securely in Sooth Carolina, and can enjoy, without risk, the rich fruit of bis labor. In time, the stranger will be convinced that he may do what the old resident does. Nor should it be forgotten that the lavish expenditures of the State Legislature, and the well known incapacity and greed of those who make laws and break them, are terrible obstacles in the way of increasing capital and popula? tion. Let the citizens of York determine that, at every election, they will do their part in the work of reform, by supporting the best candidates for office, irrespective of | party, and they will accomplish more for the public good than by any number o? ob? sequi?os endorsements of President Grant and his administration. Spools Payments. Senator Feuton'o resolution directing the Committee on Finance of the United States Senate to inquire what measures can be adopted which shall give the country a cur? rency convertible into gold at toe option of the holder, may not lead to an immediate reBult, but it ls a sign that the opposition of thoughtful men to the inconvertible green? back is increasing in force,. recting Itself to devising practical ways of solv? ing a difficult question. What is needed is something which will commit the govern? ment to the redemption of its overdue notes, and no longer leave it open to doubt whether they will be redeemed at all. Mr. J. S. Ropes, of BostOD, has proposed a plan of resumption which, in tbe opinion of The Kation, deserves the careful atten? tion of all interested in tbe matter. Mr. Bopes proposes that the government should call in all its legal-lender notes, which false? ly promise to pay dollars on demand, and substitute for them other legal tender notes, making promises the government means to keep and shall prepare to keep, and then redeem these in instalments-say atibe rate of $5,000,000 a month, beginning in Jan? uary, 1875. This would be in fact a bona fide attempt to purchase for the country gold and silver coin to be used tn exchange, and to purchase it by degrees in such quan titles as we could afford. Moreover, if the new legal tenders were redeemable on their face in this manner and at a day named, and in clearly manageable quantities, in? stead of at DO time in particular, the gov? ernment and the public would be committed to a policy from wblch they could not recede without repudiation. To tbe argument that this gold aud silver would go off again as before, The Nation replies that it would not, if needed for the ordinary business uses of society-that is, if lhere was a correspond? ing diminution of other kinds of currency; and to secure this Mr. Ropes proposes to bring a process of pressure to bear on the basks, lo force them to contract their circu? lation. But contraction ls clearly part of the scheme, and has to bo of any scheme of resumption, just as gelling wet is an essential feature in taking a bath. -The last move of the Columbia Herald ls to call upon the holders of tbe BlueBidge Scrip to report their names and tbe amounts they possess. Ol course ibe holders will do it instanter. -The Beaufort Standard soys that Charleston and Savannah have failed to es? tablish a steamship line to Europe direct; the cause being "the inability to cross the "bars at any stage of tbe tide and return "with remunerative cargoes." AU a mis? take, neighbor, so far ns Charleston is con? cerned. The Charleston and Liverpool steamship line was not kept up, because, for :ome reason, lt was difficult to obtain in? ward freight, and the outward freight would not cover ibe expenses of the round trip. BlnlTton and the Bachelors. BLOFFTON, S. C., March 20, 1873. TO TUE EDITORS OF THE MK WS. We have enjoyed very much the pieces on "Widows" and "Old Maids." which have ap? peared In the late issues sf THE NEWS, and would like lo hear from tbe same source an essay on "Bachelors and Widowers," those useless attach?s of society. We are Bluffton girls, who have been much annoyed by some ot these second-handed and dilapidated apologies for men constituting themselves sentinels, and mounting guard over ?B when least desired. We would be de? lighted lo see them handled by the same caustic and humorous pen, and hope you wilt oblige a few of the BLUFFTON GIRLS. NOTE BY TBE EDITORS.-Our foir corres? pondents in Bluffton will doubtless enjoy the singular coincidence that, the very same morning on which their appeal reached us, "the dilapidated apologies for men," to whom they refer so feelingly, were handled, In our columns, ia the manner, we hope, that ihe wretches deserve. New Publications. THE GREAT ARCHITECT.-BENEDICITE. Illus? trations ot the Power. Wisdom nud Good? ness of God, as raanliested ID His workp. By G. Chaplin Child. M. D. New York: G. P. Putnam & Sons; 1872; pp. 370. Charles? ton: Foganle's. Price $2. This beautiful volume ls by an English phy? sician, from the press of John Murray, Lon? don. The writer Is a man of unquestionable piety, scientific and skilled In the use of lan? guage. The object of the book ls expressed In one of Its sub titles: God Manifest in His Works. For this purpose he takes the "Song " ot the Three Children," incorporated into the Prayer Book of the Episcopal Church: "O " all ye works of the Lord, bless ye the Lord," <fcc, extending the invocation to the angele, heavens, the waters, sun and moon and stars; showers, winds, dews, frost and cold, nights and days, light and darkness, lightning, moun laina, della, seas, whales, beasts, lo ebon, eveiytbing ID nature. He lakes up each of ibese which Hie Song of the Three Children invokes by name to praise and bless God, and ireais of lt as a Christian scienilst, giving the reader the moBt able, popular treatment of natural objects, Irom astronomy to ihe Ashes; pointing out the skill of the Divine Architect, satisfying our curiosity without encumbering thc mind -vlth useless details. The work cannot be too highly praised. No absurd speculations offend the reader. If one desires a book which affords a summary view of scientific knowledge stated In plain, famil? iar style, he will find lt here. The author Is a Church of England man, but not sectarian. All Christians may thank him for bis noble work. Ii is In delightful contrast to the at? tempts of modern rationalists to represent the Most High as the servant ol His own laws, bound by them as toa power which had exist? ence before Him. We should be glad to see the book In the bands of every clergyman; he would not fall to see that it Ands a place In the library of his Sunday-school for the older pupils; and he would confer a great blessing on every family which he should Induce to obtain the volume. THE HANDY BOOK SERIES. New York: G. P. Putnam tc Sons. Cnarlestou: Fogarile's. The iseful Utile volumes of the "Handy "Book Series" treat each of some popular topic In a practical and sensible manner. "How to Educate Yourseir," "The Best Read "Ing," "What to Eal," "Till the Doctor Comes," "The Home," are some of the titles of this admirable series, which sufficiently indicate its character and scope. The volumes are ex? cellently printed, aad the price isa mere trifle. NICHOLAS NICKLHBY. By Charles Dickens. New York: Harper A Brothers. Charleston: Fug-mle'd.
