Wa predicted it. No movement that ia soul-lass pan succeed. The apathy sad indiff?rente of tba whites led to the molt Between Dent and Alcorn, there was, to the genuine Mississippian, little difference. The ope was a "oarpet-bag Texas. Between Hamilton and Davis, there waa little choice in the mind of tba old "T^n Ban ger." Neither represent ed the genuine Texan type. We repost it-tho lesson taught ns-Ie; us accept it. Let ns resolutely and squarely confront radicalism. It stands opposed to the interests' ot the Son th-moral and mn * terisL There is something vary assuriug in the calm and philosophical tone with wLioh the Mississippi papers discuss tho osases and probable effects of the recent radical triumph. With remarkable ac? cord and uniformity of testimony, they attribute the defeat of the popular will to the iniquitous eombination of fraud aud vi ole hoe arranged by Ames and his minions. Despite the discouraging pros? pect before them in a radical ad ministra? tion of peculiar grievances, the Missis? sippians, true to the fame of their State, repel the promptings of despair, and, eonsequeutly, look forward to their early redemption from ? radical sway. With sud i a spirit as animates the press of Mississippi, prevailing throughout the South, radicalism would soon dud that it had counted without its host in de? pending upon . the reconstructed States for the tatiintenaoce of its ascendancy. THE REASON WHY.- The United States may bluster, but a foreign war with a first ?lass power is by no means desira? ble. The Secretary of the Navy tells the reason why. His report shows thut, out of forty-six iron-clads and monitors, thirty-two have been condemned and sold. He likewise announces that many other vessels are entirely unsuited for naval purposes. So, not only have the radicals destroyed the merohaut marine of the country, but, iu spite of many millions spent, they have not armed ships enough to protcot the coast, iu case of a fight with France or England. -?-??-? Ia one of his late letters to the Cin? cinnati Commercial, Don Piatt very pointedly reminds the readers of that journal that "the oheapest philanthropy is that which frees somebody else's nig? ger. Had these slaves belonged to HS, instead of to the South, is there any one simple enough to believe that we would have bad a war of emancipation! Not much." A negro brute iu Meridian, Miss., boasted before some of bis comrades that he would ravish a young lady teacher of a school, as soon aa an opportunity offered. He accomplished his desires, when the brother of the young lady and a number of friends lynched the darkey.

Build a free bridge and tax tho people to pay for it, for the interest of a few eapi talists, who bribe the Legislature to put it through. Many suppose tho city of Columbia is to bo greatly benefitted by the erection of factories on the canal; but rest assured of one thing, the owners of these faotories (with a free bridge) are not going to build within the corporate limits when land can be had for a nong, across the river. TAX-PAYER. THE PHOSPHATE MONOPOLY. -The Charleston pnpors-the IVetcs and the Courier-have followed up the exposure first made in theso columns, of the phos? phate monopoly whioh it is attempted to consummate in tbe present Legislature for the benefit of certain persons. It is a gross outrage, and violation of public right. The Courier well Bays: "As was well said by one of tbe Em? perors of Rome, when requested to affix his name to an odict of his exclusive Im? perial possession, he answered: "These were not his property, but the common publio estate of every Roman." But if tho S'nte hos the power tho course tobe pursued is plain-it is to grant no mono? poly, but to acknowledge the right of every citizen or corporation, to dig these deposits from its navigable waters, re? quiring, if it please Bucb a royalty, a tax, as will contribute to the common sup? port or benefit. As it is now, these phos? phate are tho oom m on property of all who have the enterprise and the energy to secure them, and therefore are for the common benefit. But the State hus no right to confer a monopoly, and exolude the body of the people from its benefits. As the representative of tho people, even if it possessed the power, the least it could do would be to grant the privilege to different persons, io different sections, upou tho most advantageous terms, or to admit the right of all upon the payment of a certain royalty. But to grant to a certain number the exclusive and single right of taking from the bed of the navi? gable streams the phosphates which are to be found upon their bed, it has no more legal right than to grant to any in? dividual the exclusive right of fishery in their waters, to the thrusting out of every other citizen of the State. The earnest endeavor of all should be to foster and encourage enterprise, and to produoe the greatest benefit for the common good." ROYALTY IN THE EAST.-The fashion of traveling iu the East, which was so mag? nificently inaugurated by the Empress Eugenie, has been followed by other Royal personages. The Crown Prince of Prussia has jost visited Jerusalem, and, after visiting the church of the Holy Sepulchre, and brandishing the sword of Godfrey de Bouillon, which is one of the relics there, he visited the celebrated Mosque of Omar. On thc following day he attended the English ohuroh and par? took of the Sacrament, and then pro? ceeded to take possession of a grant made by the Sultan to his father for the erection of a German church. The Em? peror of Austria has just visited tho Holy Land also. He is the first Emperor who has done so for G90 years, the last one being Frederick II, of Germany, who took the city of Jerusalem from the Mos? lems about the year 1230. Francis Joseph went in great stato and with a fleet, and, disembarking, visited Bethle? hem and other localities mentioned iu j Biblical history. Tho prosence of these members of Royal houses iu the East has been construed into having some po? litical and diplomatic importance. The East is now more accessible than it has ever been, aud traveling in the Holy i Land is not attended with as many dis? comforts ns formerly, as good dragomen can always bo obtained, and safe trans? portation on the outside of a well-dis? posed horse or camel. COMMENDABLE INDUSTRY.-We are in? formed that Mrs. Elizabeth Howell, of this County, aged eighty-six years, has spun, during tho year, yarn sufficient to make 200 yards of cloth. During the lost five years, it is supposed she has spun more than enough to make 1,500 yards. All honor to this instance of en? ergy and industry, which continues its usefulness beyond foar-score. [Yorkvilie Enquirer. The Texas Times says: "It is some? thing remarkable that, whenever the co? lored people want to get np a ball or fair, they invariably apply to their employers for aid and advice, whioh they always receive; but when they want to know how to vote, they seek advice from the office-seeking adventurers who study only their own personal interests." Tho King of Bavaria is eminently fitted for Ins throne, by reason of two or three epileptic convulsions a day. His only draw-back is that, instead of keep? ing his crown on his throne, he is some? times thrown on his crown. A correspondent, praising tho hardi? hood of Homo lady travelers in the Yose? mite Valley, says "they burst their con? ventionalities." We hope he discreetly! looked the other way. There were eighteen deaths in Charles? ton for the post week-three whites and fifteen colored. Died, at Paris, on the 30th November, 1869, H. H. Manigault, of Charleston, H. 0.-aged fifty years.

Feeling tuns, many of oar readers will begin to bestir themselves to find something to give which is useful, tasteful and an evidence of kindly inter? course. The wants and tastes of the persons to whom it is desired to make a present may be ascertained by a little observation and tact, and the pleasure of their surprise thoa heightened. For instance, a small writing desk, a tiny flower stand of curiously carved wood or quaint glass, glove box, a rare aod onrions book, or the poems of some great poet, a picture or a piece of statuary, a ?tot of the works of some standard author, a toilette soi or a napkin ring.

The programme for 1870 in? cludes a new story from Mrs. Edwards, the author of "Susan Fielding," "Archie Lovell," etc.; a series of "Editor's Tales," by Anthony Trollope; a series of noteworthy articles on historical subjects by Parke Godwin; critical and social essays by Riobard Grant White; critical analyses of prominent individuals in politics, science and letters, by Justiu McCarthy; a series of articles, by a late Ecclesiastic of the Roman Catholic Church, in which he will give personal recollections of tho interior life of Rome; a unique series of papers dealing trench? antly with the society of to-day; scion tifie articles by Drs. J. C. Dalton and J. C. Draper, and others. A new feature will be a comprehensive monthly review of the literature of tho world.* Subscrip? tion $4 per annum. For beauty of typography, artistic en? gravings, and high-toned literary arti? cles, together with a, large and beautiful display of the fashions, DemoresCs Monthly Magazine is certainly unsur? passed. The January number, just re? ceived, in addition to unusual holiday attractions, has a fine steel portrait of both Mr. and Mme. Demurest. The rich display of novelties offered in Demo rests's Mont??y would seem to be enough to secure a circulation sufficient to satisfy its publishers; but io addition we see they proposo to give a very large and fine en? graving to each subscriber, valued at $10. The engraving alone would make a very appropriate holiday or birth-day gift; but when added to tho costly picture the parlor magazine is included, to be a monthly reminder of the friendly feeling of tho giver, thoro is certainly no better way of investing 83.

OUR SCHOOI?DAY VISITOR.-The first number of the 14th year and volume of this wide-awake magazine is received, and we pronounce it fresher, brighter and better than ever.

The publishers offer a charming steel engrav? ing, just published, as their premium plato for 1870, entitled "Help Me Up," worth $2.00 a copy, for 25 cents to each subscriber.

This is the season when people mako ap their minds about tho magazine? they will take for the coming year, and they are largely influenced by the announce? ments which different publishers make. The various programmes are published, and Hurd and Houghton promise to give in their Riverside Magazine for Young People a varied and entertaining one. Hana Christian Andersen, Paul Hayne, Mrs. Helen C. Weeks, and other popular authors are to contribute. There is promise made that tho editor has a good store of lively nod humorous poetry, and short stories with spirited illustrations; and this is likely enough, since he has such writers to draw from a .-J the author of tho "Susy Books," Mr. Stockton, the author of "Ting-a-Ling," Mr. ('ranch, the artist and author of tho "Last of the Hugger muggers," and finally the inimitable "Little Artists" under Anne Silvernail's supervision.

YOUNO MEN'S CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION. The meeting, last evening, of this Asso? ciation, at tho Baptist Church, was at? tended by a number of ladies and gen? tlemen. The exercises of the evening were opened with prayer by thc Rev. Dr. Reynolds. Mr. A. C. Haskell, the Pre? sident of the Association, then arose, and, after announcing the absence, on account of illness, of Professor Carlisle, the lecturer of the evening, proceeded, io a olear and effective way. to explain tho scope, the spirit and the purposes of the Young Men's Christian Association. He asked for it tho sanction and approval of woman, as mother, wife, sister and daughter, and he claimed for it the sup? port and consideration of all good citi? zens. Mr. Haskell's remarks, pervaded as they were by a high religious and moral tono, touched the sympathies ol his hearers. To us the speaker presented aa interesting spectacle. He was one who had led his troops along the fiery pathway of the battle-field, and whe bears upon his person the honorable scan of war and of gallantry in tho fight. Now he was in peace, still doing his State service-leading our young mea ia thf paths of virtue aad religion. These are tba mea of whom the community maj well be proud. They serve us in war. They serve ns io peace. Audit is raeu like Haskell, and those of the samt stamp, who serve to keep alive the spiril of patriotism and virtue. Wo heartily wish him nod the Association he repre I scuts the success due to their high pur ? poses nod pure motives. The exercises of tho evening wcro accompanied with sacred music, aad closed with a benedic? tion by tho Rev. Dr. Howe. UNITED STATES CIRCUIT COURT-Fri day, December 17, 18G9.-HOD. Georg? S.
