Address RIORDAN, DAWSON A CO.. No. IO Broad street. Charleston, S. C. THUESDAY, APRIL 3, 1873. Tra CHARLESTON DULY NEWS uis designa "ted as the newspaper for the publication of "all legal notices, aod-offlclal advertisements, ?'for the County of Charleston, under the act ..of February 22d, 1870, entitled an act to regu? late the publication of all legal and public .'notices." SEWS OF THE DAT. -Both branches of the Alabama Legislature have passed ibe bill to annex West Florida. -A theatre to cost fifteen million tranca, and to bold twenty thousand people, and take thirty thousand francs at each representation, la talked of in Paris. -The New York Commercial Advertiser States that Mrs. South worth has written forty two novels! And adds: '-Thousands of ber readers have died, but she is still alive." . _The attorney-general of Kansas bas given an opinion against the constitutionality of the law to "promote the improvement of real es? tate by the exemption of mortgages and other securities from taxation." -Felix Pyat, who look part In the com- - muce of Paris, has been condemned to death by the French courts ''par contumace." It Is highly probable that H. Pyat, as weil as Gen? eral Fremont, who bas been condemned lo fire years' Imprisonment, will treat French Jurisdiction and territory with "contumaciam," and give both a wide berth. -Mr. John Hopkins, ofB1)timor?, has given money and land to the aggregate value of fonr million dollars, to found a hospital In that city. He has also provided In his witt for th? establishment of an educational university, for1 which he bas made a bequest of from four toalx millions dollars value. Mr. Hopkins ls a bachelor Ber?nl7-seveo years old, and the riebest man In Maryland. -The benevolent old uncle of the stage bas actually turned rp tn propria persona, in Taunton, MasB. A house there was to be sold at public vendue, and among the bidders was an unknown man who seemed determined to have the house at any price, and got lt. He -theo called a young man aside and told bim that he would give him the property. It wae thought to be a Joke, but the young man's wife being summoned, lt turned out that the mysterious old gentleman was her unole from the West, and that the bouse was his present to her. Then they alt went into the house and bad a good time. ? -The original Ravels are all alive, but tbe ' youngest ls more than sixty years old. When 1 *~ this troupe was last in tbe United States, two 1 yoong ladles were riding In a car and wished t -to open the window near them. They failed, ] and one suggested asking the aid of an old ? gentleman Bitting on the seat next behind them. ''Oh, no," responded ihe other, "don't trouble tte old man." To their astonishment ' this aged Individual rose, stepped lo the aisle, 1 made a low bow. to the young ladles, and then turned a somersault forward and Iben one . backward. Alter this he made another bow, aod then threw up the window. This was Gabriel Ravel., aged seventy. -It would >?<;m by cable dispatches that the French Assembly bas virtually confirmed the exile of the Bonaparte family. Snob was the result of an excited debate over Prince Napoleon's petition praying for the restora? tion of his rights as a citizen and rem castra? ting against bis 111 1 ega 1 expulsion from France. The debate on the subject ls said to have been sm excited one, and the order or the day was adopted by a vote or 347 to 291. Hitherto President Thiers, though somet? mea ass arn? ing untenable pos! tia ns, has been able, when 1 necessary, to retreat In good order, and < whether he hos been right or wrong his ad- I versarles have been uniformly unlucky. It 1 remains to be seen whether the banishment , ot the Bonapartes (suppoBing there may be any left worthy the mark) ls not calculated to strengthen their cause by exciting sympathy ou the ground of unnecessary persecution. ? The Prince Napoleon, from his antecedents, would not seem to be a man of dangerous capacity, and If any of the rest of the family have even his cleverness it has been carefully concealed from the observation of the world. It is not to be supposed that the large minor? ity which voted against the proscription of the Bcnapartes have any special fondness for that . dynasty or for Imperialism, bat may perhaps regard the exclusion of citizens from their own country as not exactly the reasonable < thing at ihls day ot the world, especially lt 1 they have committed no offences against the 1 Bute, or have no such qualities as would ren- ! der them dangerous to it. There are many j who will Interpret such a measure on the part i ol Thlers's government as a confession that ( there Is still a strong party in France in favor of the empire, though there may really be no 1 one to play the emperor. 1 -The announcement ol the return of Mr. j George M. Pullman from Europe, wbere be 1 hals been for the purpose Qi introducing the I Pullman palace cars Into that country, la ac- ! companied with the gratifying intelligence that bis mission has terminated successfully, arrangements having been completed by which the Midland Railway Company of England is to use them on their lines. The contract Is 1 substantially of the same kind as those enter? ed Into with railway corporations here. The 1 Pullman Company agree to furnish as many < dining-room, drawing-room and Bleeping-cars 1 as the demanda o? the travelling publie re? quire, without charge to the road. Their com? pensation ls In tbe extra iare paid for t be usa of the cars. Tbe gain of the road ia lo the free use of the cars, lu return for which lt guarantees to the company the exoluslve right to furnish such cars for fifteen years. It ls further stipulated that at the end of a year, should the experiment prove satisfactory, the Midland Hallway may furnish one-halt the cap? ital for the construction and management of J the cars, and become Joint owners with the Pullman Company. The plan goes Into effect in the latter part of August or the first of Sep? tember next. On the London and Liverpool line at ila opening the palace cars will first be used. Two night trains and two day trains are all that will be put on at the ttart. To iurnlBh these eighteen cars will be shipped this summer, and their construction will begin immediately at the company's factory in De? troit, Michigan. The cars are to be similar in pattern to those used in this country, though the construction of the English road, Its tunnels and other permanent features re? quire, however, a car one foot narrower and eight inches lower than the American pat? tern. To give the novelty a lair trial it ls arranged tbat the first trains shall be entirely made up of the American cars. Mr. Pullman expects to be called upon lo lurolsh one hun? dred cars wllhln a year after the Introduc? tion. The contract, it ls said, is not at all ex? clusive, and the oiher great railways ol Eng? land are walling the result ol the experiment. The Financial Condition ot the Cit jr. Thia paper had called on the City Coun? cil, more than once, to mate a plain Btate ment of the actual liabilities of the munici? pal Government, and to say frankly what sums of money have been spent wilhont au? thority, or Ia excess ot Ihe known appropri? ions. Thia course waa necessary and proper, because ibe City Treasurer bad pre- j sented a statement containing a terrible array of what purported to be municipal liabilities, and because it was currently re? ported that the expenditures for the year 1873 would largely exceed the income of the city. The Council did take up the matter, and the joint Committee of Ways and Means and of Accounts made their report on Tues? day night In that report they say that they have examined "a paper issued from "the treasury and purporting to be an ad "dendum, (not ordinance,) and statement "of receipts and expenditures," and fled them "inaccurate in many respects." Da ring the discussion which followed the read- j ing of the report, Alderman Pelzer (whose remarks were incorrectly reported in THE NEWS of yesterday) pointed out two in? stances in which the paper presented by the treasurer conveyed an erroneoua idea to the public. The treasurer put down, amongst the liabilities of the city, a sum of $95,690 46, for interest on city stock due January 1, 1873; the treasurer likewise gave $506,000 as the amount of city stock doe and falling doe in 1873. Alderman Felzer explained that, according to custom, the interest for the last quarter of 1872, due January 1, 1873, was provided for in the appropriations of 1873, and that the present Council had already paid four quarters' interest out of the appro? priations Ot 1872. This, we understand, was ihe course taken by Ibe Clark and Pillsbury ailtniaistrations, and their succ?s sora aro not guilty of any impropriety in de- ? dining to Baddie five quarters' interest upon a single year. Aa to the city stock, Alder? man Pelzer explained that the general sink? ing fund held $159,860, and tbe Orphan bouse and other funds $9560 of the stock due and falling due this year-leaving a bal? anceo! $336,580, instead of $506.000. These examples illustrate the "inaccurate" char? acter ot the papers which tbe committee examioted. Tbe report of tbe committee was adopted, and the citizens are now re? ferred to the Mayor's report and tbe accom? panying official statements for a correct ex? position of the financial condition of the city. We willingly accept the report o? the joint committee of Council as a candid and truthful reply to the questions wbich this paper bas asked. The committee have scrutinized the accounts, as we cannot pre :end to do, and their assurance that the elly is financially sound, and that tbe prospect ia exceedingly bright, will be both welcome and cheering to tboae cltizena who bad Teared te find a skeleton in the municipal cupboard. The City Council are doing their beat, and we do not desire to throw any "wet blanket-' on their efforts, even in this sultry weather. -? i ?? t ? Thc Peril? of the Sea. The appalling disaster wbich bus over? taken the White Star Line steamer Atlantic will not surprise the persons of experience who have watched, with increasing alarm, the rivalry between tbe ocean steamship lines, and the systematic disregard, in build-11 lng new vessels, of any other consideration 11 than the securing .of a high rate of speed. One would think tbat the unavoidable perils of ocean travel would induce the greatest care in constructing and running steamships j < For that service. Iastead of this, however, the preservation of doe proportions in meas- 1 arements is neglected, and, in tbe worst < weather, the mall steamers are driven ahead < without any heed to the result Strangely enough tbe White Star Line bas lately been singled out as the most uncertain of the companies engaged in the ocean busi? ness. A correspondent or tbe New York Graphic, less than two weeks ago, said that i when ships, "as al present constructed are [ "crowded, something must break before a "great while." The concluding sentences of * the same letter are as folio ws : [ i It is no secret, and lt ls scarcely denied, tbat they do crowd tbe Inman and White Star ships. I There has been and isa fierce rivalry between the ships of these lines. Tney are what are jailed "wet" ships, from tbe tact of their be? ing long and narrow, and equlppt d with pow? erful macbiaery. Taeir models tell the story. They are built io run, and they are run simply or ihe glory ol who gels there first, and wiin )ut any regard to satety ot the passengers. Puring the past winter lhere bas been a sharp ?ace between several of the competing lines, ind, in nearly every Instance the ships have Dee n delayed, machinery has given way under , the strain, and in some instances lives have seen lost. The lads are carelully kept Irom c the public, and to thu public everything ap- I pears to be lovely. Keep your eye upon these s steamers, and you will have a big sensation io ! Ihwtrate before long-and from sketches not 1 taken on the spot. t The ' big sensation" has, Indeed, come. ? Hore than seven hundred lives sacrificed to 1 the frenzy for rapid travelling t 1 Other correspondents of the Graphic wrote I in the same strain. They cited the experi? ence ot the Collins line captain "who never t "drove his steamer hard, in rough weather, rj "unless be knew there was aCunurder right "behind him, and it wouldn't do to let her "beat;" of the Baltic which sailed from New York with a broken propeller; of ihe Hansa and ber fifty days' trip; of the captain of a mail steamer who, meeting a disabled and almost sinking rival, refused to tow her two hundred miles, saying that his orders were "to save life, bat never mind the property, "and, above all, lose no time by towing ribips "of another lina'' The correspondents agreed in declaring that tbe crack Hoes of "floating palaces" are too narrow for their length, that they are too long lo cover two ordinary seas to advantage, and too short to ride safely.over three; that they are "wetf' and uncomfortable. There are some lines which are regarded os safe, but the large majority think more of retaining their con? tract for carrying the mails than of securing the lives of their passengers. Whether any remedy can be found for the rashness of tbe ooean steamship companies, it ls difficult to say. The passenger who lODgs for a watery grave bas a right to grat? ify bis fancy. Bat it should be insisted on tbat men and women, the throng of pleasure seekers, shall not be inveigled into taking a passage aboard of tl jating rat-traps, while believing that they aro as safe as careful construction and prudent management can make them. It is idle to say thal there is nobody to blame. The death of the seven hundred presses hard on some conscience stricken wretch ibis day. The Northeastern Railroad. The annual report of the President of the Northeastern Railroad Company, printed elsewhere, shows that there is an increase of ?hirty per cent, in ibe aggregate earnings, that tbe road and equipment are in excel? lent condition, and tbat there has been no serious accident during the year. These gratifying results are a practical evidence of | tbe skill and judgment with wbich the road is managed by President Ravenel and Su? perintendent Solomons, and their subordi? nate officers. No Joke! Tbe Wilmington Journal takes the jokes of TUB NEWS about the "Noth Kerlina' pines in very good part, but faints that we know less than we think we do about the "benighted regions" with wbich the Jour? nal is familiar. In each a case, "where "ignorance is bliss" 'tia exceeding folly to be wise, neighbor ! Pardoning the Ku-Klux. The Washington correspondent of the New York Tribune thinks that the almoBt daily pardon of some prisoner convicted of | Ka-Klaxiam, and the notice ibat bas been served on witnesses in North Carolina ex using tuem from attendance on the Spring term of the Court, lead to the hope and be? lief lhat the country has nearly beard the last of "Southern conspiracies against peace "and good order." As there have been no "conspiracies" of such a nature, the corres? pondent indulges in no rash expectation. Tbe same correspondent says that "South? ern men believe that nothing can do so "much to restore good feeling in certain "portions of tbe Southern States as Execu? tive leniency towards tbe Ku-Elux conspira "lors." We do ask for 6uch clemency; jecause the Ku-Klux prisoners were tried ind condemned as dark "conspirators," while, in truth, most of them were innocent, ind the rest were guilty of crimes which only he State courts had any business with. It suited the North to treat tbe South as still 'contumacious," and the Ku-Klux prison ire were, therefore, hunted down without nercy. As tbey have served their purpose, ve shall be glad to see them pardoned. Dbut will prove that President Grant is dis >osed to be just, when lhere is nothing to ie gained by a contrary course. The "good "feeling" which the Tribune j nan expects will not come until tbe Non b irn Republicans are ready to admit lbat Southerners, and ex-Confederates, can be as tonest and patriolic as ihcy. Ii lires one o bold out the band too long, even to a [uondam foe. .Manufactures. The advance sheels of tbe census reports m manufactures contain a vast amount of ?seful and interesting statistics, showing ibe irogress of industrial pursuits In theUaitcd States. These reports are exclusive of the products of the soil, Ihe mines, the fisheries, the railroad and canal business. We note some of tbe great classes of manufactures in their order of precedence: Iron and its an? nual products, $628,303,885; cotton, worst ad and woollen, $611,495,177; flouring and ?rist mills, $444,985,143; leather and its products, $345,439,730; lumber, $252,339,. )29; sugar and molasses, $119,789,097; iquors, distilled, malt and vinous, $94,123, )14; tobacco, cigars and snuff, $71,762,044. The total manufactured products of the United States for the last census year reach ,he amazing sum of $4,232,326,442. The inouai production of printing paper is 625,000,000, of writing paper $9,000,000; ind book-binding stands at $14,000,000. ind all this takes no acconnt of tbe greal mportatiODS of stationery and books, agricultural implements make a good show ng of $52,066,875, contrasting markedly vith sbip-baildlng material and repairs, vhich foot up only $17,910,328. Of jewelry he domestic production is $22,104,032. The mtent medicine traffic, wbich Borne people bought to be on the decline, still asserts its )ower over human credulity by the round igares $16,000,000. The Slave Trade In the East. The anti-slavery expedition, sent from Eng and to Zanzibar under the direction of Slr iartle Frere, has entirely failed. A treaty .xisling between Great Britain and the Sui an of Zanzibar permits the slave trade within ?ertaln limits, and it was the purpose of the Jrlilsh envoy to secure tbe Sultan's assent to i new treaty, which would have bound bim o abollBh the traffic altogether. After a good leal of equivocating, the Sn lian Anally reject id all proposals to modify. In any respect, the reaty of 1845, saying that as slavery is per nitied by the Koran he could not think of .lacing himself in opposition to that sacred took; besides which, to abolish ihe present ystem would be to destroy a very lucrative raffle, and perhaps lead to Insurrection and llsaster. ^CHARLESTON LIBRARY SOCIETY.
