COLUMBIA, S. C. Wednesday doming, March 2,1870. A PERTINENT QUESTION.-A great deal of foss ia made over the esposare of a few knavish carpet-baggers who sold their cadetahips, and thus participated in the general corruption of the mon who mado carpot-bagism a national institu? tion. Tho Chicago Times puts the mat? ter thoa: "Does the foot that a Congressman has procured the appointment of a man to any office, from whom he has received money, convict him of selling tho ap? pointment? Did Grant receive money from A. T. Stewart? Did Grant receive money from Collector Orinnel? Did Grant reoeive a house from ez-Seoretary Bone? Did Grant reoeive a valuable library from Attorney-General Hoar ? If selling eade ts hi ps be such rottenness, what shall be said of the sale of Cabinet appointments? THE MORMON PROBLEM.-The New York Times is opposed to the application of force as a solution of the Mormon pro? blem. So long as Mormonism is a reli? gious and moral fault, that paper very reasonably contonda, we must combat it with religious and moral influences. Christ's Gospel cannot be preached by artillery and riflemen. The moment we war upon a religion wo make it a power, gire it new Ufe, stimulate its friends, arouse dormant compliance into enthu? siastic devotion and sympathy, attract followers and converts, and, in the end, fail in the effort of aggression. We think with the Times, that the "ism" will die ont if we let it alone. Brigham Young will die before long, and with the many elements of disintegration at work among them, the saints will hardly survive him. EX-RETRI?ENTATTVE WHTTTEMOBE.-It is stated that Mr. Whittemore, of South Carolina, who resigned his seat in Con? gress on Wednesday, and next day re? ceived a vote of censuro on aocount of the cadetship transaction, is going directly home, and if his friends seo fit to put bim io nomination for his old position, he will probably a cc opt. [Ballimore Sun. (Hardly probable. His colored friends seem disposed to give him the cold shoulder.] THE UNITED STATES COURT-Hon. Geo. S. Bryan, presiding-Monday, February 28.

ASHAMED OF TH STU COLOR.-The Washington New Era, the new organ of tho colored interest, and edited by color? ed meu, describes Salnavo as being "iu personal appearance a lino representa? tive of our race." In proof of this asser? tion, the Neut Era says: "Ho had the brown and velvety complexion of an In? dian, softonod and refined by civiliza? tion; hi?, huir was black and silk.it, his moustache thick and tufted, and his stature that of au athlete." Now, the negro raco of which tho New Era claims to be the organ, is not distinguished by the "brown and velvety complexion of an Indian," nor by "silkif" hair. They aro black, and their hair is short, woolly and tightly curled. Wo do not say this in derision, but because it is the simple natural truth. The New Era ought not to bo ashamed of the color or the hair bestowed by na? ture upon its race. Tho negro is uot an Indian. Those of mixed blood have the complexion and hair described above-nnd can no moro bo claimed as specimons of tho negro than of tho white or Indian races. They aro mongrels. [Richmond W/tiy. MURDER.-A report reached ns yester? day, that a few evenings since, thc wife of llio Rev. Mr. Rawlins was shot through the window, and killed by a colored boy, discharged tho day pre? vious1, on account of bad conduct. Mr. Rawlins isa Northern man, and in charge of a colored Methodist Chinch, near Dallas, Gaston County. I Charlotte Times. A NEGRO STABBED IN HAMBURG. Hamburg is proverbial for negro rows. At ono of theso gatherings, on Sunday night, a negro numed Preston Sims, hailing from Columbia, S. C., was se? verely cut in tho back during tho pro? gress of a row, by a mulatto named Gus. The wounded negro was brought to this city and placed in the Freedmen's Hos? pital for treatment. [Augusta Constitutionalist. Somebody has said that "Wo ought always tobeliovo less than wo are told." This may bo a safo maxim for general uso, but when a woman intrusts you, in confidence, of course, with her age, you may always believe a groat deal moro ?han yon are told. STATS JLJCaiSJbATUBJB.

A resolution was adopted, that an ad? visory board be appointed to the Land Commissioner, and that they be request? ed to report at once to the General As? sembly the amount of money expended, to whom sold by said Land Commis? sioner, and the amount received there? for. A message was received from the Go? vernor, stating that he had "vetoed" tho phosphate bill; and that he had approv? ed and signed the following Acto: To limit the costs of criminal prosecutions; to provide for the filling of vacancies in County offices; to authorize State Trea? surer to issue to Richard P.

The phosphate bill was pasped over tho Governor's veto-in the Senate 19 to 5; Houso 78 to 23. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Tho Governor sent a message to the House, stating that ho had approved and signed tho following Acts: Giving authority to the City Council of Charles? ton to amend an ordinance entitled "An ordinance to aid in rebuilding tho burnt districts and waste places iu tho city of Charleston ;" to provide for the poor; to amend an Act entitled "An Act to pro? vide for the appointment of a Land Com? missioner, and to defino his powers and duties, and for other purposes;" to en? force a uniform system of assessment and taxation by municipal bodies; to amend an Act to charter the Port Royal Railroad Company, ratified December 21, 1857; to alter and amend an Act to provide for tho asse&smeut and taxation of property. The following bills were read the third timo and passed: Relative to the power of tho city of Charleston to impose pu? nishment for violation of city ordinances; to incorporate the Coopers' Trade Union, of Charleston; to aid and encou? rage woolen and cotton manufactures. Mexico is now io the enjoyment of a lull-blown civil war. The insurgents are soroly pressing the Government troops, and Juarez is compelled to resort to force in order to fill the depleted ranks of his army. Throughout tho republic, affairs are in a state of confusion border? ing on anarchy. A new President is suggested in opposition to Juarez, with tho seat of Government at Calientes. Secretary Seward's visit and speeches have certainly produced anything but a good effect on the revolutionary Mexi? cans. The News says bOO mules have been sold in Albany this season, for the aggro- ? gato sum of nearly 8200,000. What al sum to be taken from one community in thc spaco of four months, for mules aloue. Albany, says tho Columbus Sun, is not alone in this drain; Columbus has sent out to her surroundings fully that number, or more, in tho last four months. What a criticism upon tho system of farming in thc South. Every farmer ? uan raise his mules and horses at a cost ! of less than eighty dollars a head. H' w to get rid of lico on cattle : A little J kerosene oil poured into tho bund and | rubbed into the hair between the horns and down the neck, and if very bud, j ulong the spine to tail, will disperse or kill them. As nits are all the time hatch? ing, repeat four days and you aro rid of them. Gon. J. G. Walker, who procured from California 250 Chinese laborers to work on tho Texas Central Baflroad, ia ft i****?' to the gentleman in Baltimore, ex? himself bVbly ?mHrfad with their sition to labor and be contented, well pleased is he with the experiment, that he expresses a determination te re? turn to California this spring and en? deavor to duplicate the number. [Columbus Sun. A servant girl, who had jost been ad? monished by her mistress to be very careful in "washing np" the best tea things, was overheard shortly afterwards, in the back kitchen, indulging in the following soliloquy, while in the act of wiping the sugar basin: "If I was to drop this 'ere basin, and was to catch it, I 'sposo I shouldn't catch it; but if I was to drop it, and wasn't to catch it, I reckon I jost should catch it." After the successful attack of Colonel Baker on an encampment of hostile In? dians in Montana, ono big fellow was found alive in his tepee, who bad killed two of his squaws with bis knife and pilod their dead bodies over himself to hide him. This is an act of stratagem, meanness and cowardice unexampled even in Indian history. It is unneces? sary to say that the wretch did not live long after he was found in this condition. COMTLIMENTAKY.-A radical editor in Alabama says an Alabama legislator can be bought "at a price th^t would have been a disgrace to a slave before the wor. " It is understood that in the Georgia Le? gislature, the prico of a good negro would buy from ten to a dozen. In Flo? rida, ten dollars is considered a fair price for a radical Senator or Assemblyman. The Pennsylvania Cemetery contains seven graves side by side, in which re? pose the lifeless remains of a man and his six wives. When the first wife died, tho third was threo years old, and the fifth an infant of twelve months; while tho last wife was not born until the year following tbe death of the first. The duties on tea, coffee and sugar yield a revenue of $55,000,000, while those on all other articles in the tariff do not exceed $105,000,000. This is the way radical politicians protect the masses. High duties on the necessaries of life, low duties on luxuries. Another man was killed by a train over ?1_o_*u c_T>-:I__"_J_ IUD uuuiu vviiiunu;i xkuinuau, uti iuuu day last, near Summerville.

This makes the third fiasco in the amusement business within the period of a week. Once more Max Maretzok bas been compelled to bring to a disastrous close his season of Italian opera in New York, and the journals there are lugubrious over the lack of appreciation for high art in the community. One of the qualifications of Jimmy Gallagher, a candidate for offlco in Mem? phis, is that "his forehead extends to the gable end of his neck." This means that the man is bare-footed on the top of his head. "Look here, boy," said a nervous old gentleman, to an urchin, who was munching sugar-candy ut a lecture, "you are annoying mo very much." "No, I ain't," repled the urchin, "I'm a-gnaw iug this sugar-candy.

D., President of the E Modi-College, city of New York, that apeaks in high terma of its curativo proper? ties, and gives a special recommendation of Koakoo to tho practitioners of medicine. This is, wo believe, the first instance where such medicines havo been officially endorsed by tho Faculty of any of the Medical Colleges, and rcfiectB great credit upon the skill of Dr. Lawrence, its compounder, and also puts "Koskoo" in tho VAX of all other medicines of thc present day.

Almoat all female complaints arc complicated with mental gloom and despon? dency, tho gentle and lasting exhilarating effects of tho QUEEN'S DELIOUT is admirably adapted to auch casca. Aa a remedy for hys? teria and mental d?pression, it has no equal in the world. Nursing mothers find it an ad? mirable invigoraut.
