Ci )LTTMBIA, S. C. Wednesday . ?ornine, July 20, 1870. H in rt ?ru Our Great Men 1 Tho general complaint, "Where aro thc Websters, the Clays, tho Patriok Henrys?" is auswered iu this way by a contemporary: As men becomo moro enlightened, as education becomes moro universal, the talent of men becomes more equalized. There is not the cbauco now that there used to bo for ono man to rise far above bis fellows, and thus compel tho homage and obeisance of thoso about him. There aro heroes as great as ever there have becu. But there are so ruuuy of them that individuals oro forgotten, aud ideas are becoming su? premo. This is a mark of true progress, aud just as fast as the person is merged iuto the project, so much nearer do we come to complete culture aud refinement. It is conceded as a fuct that tho ele? ments of greatness-moral and intellect? ual power-are the same in all genera? tions. It is the calling of these qualities into activity that creates greatness; but it is a singular fact, not favorable to thc theory, that our country, at a time when it most needs great talents, great learn? ing and great patriotism, should develop hardly any of thoso qualities in its pub? lic councils. Look at the present Cou gres3 of the United States-where is the mau in either house that commands the admiration and homage of the country, even of thc less enlightened portion of it, by his brilliant genius, his enlarged statesmanship-or his power to com? mand the popular heart? It is evident that, with all the ignorance in Congress -aud at no other period iu our history was there such a display of it-neither party in either house has a leader. Even the heads of factious are mcu who have but little in them to commend them to the popular affection, or even respect. The Almighty, in Ilia wisdom, sometimes sends an iron age upon a peo? ple and commits their destinies to tho counsels of ignorance, selfishness ami malice; and this seems to be tho enso with thc American people at the present day. Thc country has beeu plunged, head and heels, iuto tho very slough of degradation, and perhaps the power that put it there, or tolerated the wicked men who brought about such a consumma? tion, will, in tho process of reformation, develop the Clays, Websters aud Patrick Henrys, whoso loss we now so deeply deplore. It is hard to philosophize on the progress and retrogression of hu? manity. The Ruler of nil the earth seems to havo His own purposes to fulfill with men and nations, and these aro past finding out. To-day, He leads them through the valley of humiliation, and to-morrow elevates them to the high? lands of national pride and greatness. It may be that the curso of stupidity and viciousness that now rests upon us may be only a tchool for tho inculcation of high intellectual and moral qualities that shall in timo reedeni the country and j) lace it once moro on the high road to greatness and renown. How TUE COMBATANTS STAND.-Sup? posing Italy, Holland and tho Scandiva viun States remain neutral, we find tho following military strength nt the dis? posal of the belligerents: PRUSSIA. North-German Confederation.. 803,000 Badeu. 45,397 Warlemberg. 31,105 Bavaria. 100,400 Belgium. 100,000 Spain. . 150,000 Russia. 72(3,000 To t:d.1,059,202 FRANCIS. France. 757,898 Austria. 500.00U Denmark. 4S.G79 Scandinavia. 120,000 Total.1,420,577 BURNT TO DEATH.-A colored woman, zanied Violet Washington, was burned to death on Saturday, under the follow? ing circumstances: Sbo was employed as a cook by a family living in the upper part of King street. On Saturday, after dinner, she was attempting to light a lire in thc kitchen-stove, when a can, containing kerosene oil, by some moans taught fire and exploded, setting her clothing on fire. Every effort was made to relievo the poor woman, but before tho llamos in which hbo wm enveloped were extinguished, ?he was fatally burnt. After thc Hames were extinguished, she was convoyed to tho City Hospital, und received every attention, but "after lin? gering until Sunday morning, died. The Coroner held an inquest, yesterday, and a verdict was rendered in accordance with the facts already stated. [ Charleston Courier. There is a good thing in "Put Yourself iu His Placo.1' When Henry, the hero, is consulting Jael about his lost love, ho says: "Btit how am 1 to let her know I ; roruise?" "J don't know. How does everybody let everybody know things now-a-daysV 'IL - i advertise." "Of course they do-'-in the columns j cf the Piiaixix; und wc say* "Go thou 1 do likewise." HOLLANDERS * AND PUBXTANS.-Gov. Soymour, in his scholarly address at Cor? nell University, said, in a pleasant tri? buto to Now York and New England: "Wo want clear views of tho lending traits of the first colonists. Sometimes wo hear painfully absurd speeches from tho pulpit and the rostrum upon those subjects. The Puritans suffer most iu this way. There was something heroic in their self-poised characters. They had what will always oom maud respect-"earn? estness. It was carried to excess, and made them harsh. But au earnest mau is always in some way a useful man. The vigor of character, the appreciation of education and religion derived from tho Puritans, aro manifested in every quar? ter of our land and private enterprises. Our people required and possess the characteristics derived from both of these sources. He who would seek to deprive tho Hollanders of the Puritans of their just share of veneration, is un worthy to be tho descendant of eithor. The statesmen and the poets of Now England strive to perpetuate the memory of tho Pilgrim Fathers, to record their Bufferings, and to hallow tho very spot upou which they trod. Plymouth rock has been made a sacred shrino where they annually pour forth their gratitudo for the civil aud political blessings which they enjoy. But how little is known of tho moro varied and moro interesting emigration to tho shores of our own State. While we honor the Pilgrim Fathers, let us not forget the Hollanders, who made early settlements upon our shores, and who made the harbor of New York a placo of refuge from bigotry, in? tolerance and wrong." ELECTORAL PLATFORM OF TUE NORTH? ERN PROGRESSISTS.-The Berlin journals of July 1 publish the electoral manifesto of thc progressist party. As tho coming elcotions will take place at the samo time both for the North German Parliament and the Prussian Chamber, thc pro? gramme referred to is drawn up with n double aim. Tho following are ita prin? cipal points: Accomplishment by pacific means of German unity; enlargement and trans? formation of tho Northern Confederation into a federal German State; consequent? ly tho development in a liberal direction of the Federal constitution, particularly by introducing into it thu fundamental rights of thc German people; a respon? sible federal ministry aud the payment of deputies; reduction of tho military charges by n diminution of the army in time of peace nud a shortening of the length of .service; to support all efforts mude in Europe with a view to a general disarmament; no increase of taxes, but rather the contrary, beginning with n suppression of thoso on food, which are especially onerous to the poorer classes; equal rights for all; universal suffrage in tho separate States asia the Confedera? tion. For thc Prussian Chamber of Deputies in particular tho progressists demand: Eutiro right for it to vote thc taxes; self-government in the commune, district und province; responsibility of function? aries to tho courts of law. POLITICAL AND GOVERNMENTAL RE? FORM.-The honor belongs to the great State of Illinois of initiating the first and most important movement for reform of our Stato governments which has been attempted since the late war. Ono of tho moat deplorable of the consequences of tho war has been the rapid decline in morality, and in regard for the truo principles of Republican freedom and good government in our State and muni? cipal systems, and iu the vast increase, of corruption, venality, and selfish and par tisau aggrandisement. Tho accession to power of the radical party, with their profound contempt for the old ideas of tho fathers of the Go? vernment, with their tendencies to po? litical usurpation, and to tho unscru? pulous uso of politicul patronage for per? sonal and party nggraneliscment, regard? less of the old landmarks and limitations of constitutional republicanism, and of the fundamental provisions of Mugna Charta and bills eif rights, has spread corruption through all tho Slates, to nu extent which is not paralleled in any other country in thc civilized world, and which has caused tho true and patriotic of our citizons to despair of the future of our Republic.-New Orleans Times. MORE OF THE CITY PROPERTY LEVIED UPON.-lu our advertising columns will bc found au advertisement from Sheriff Mackey, announcing that by virtue of an execution in tho case of tho executors of Gcorgo Gibbon vs. the City Council, he will sell at the Court Houso corner, on thc first day of next month, all the right, title anti interest of the defendants in thu following property of tho City Council of Charleston, or ns much there? of as may bo necessary to satisfy the exe? cution: 6,800 shares, original stock, of the North-eastern Railroad; 5,950 shares of Memphis and Charleston (dividend) stock; 2,000 shares, original stock, ot Chcraw and Darlington Railroad; $3,391 50 certificates of indebtedness of the North-eastern Railroad; $20,000 8 per cent, bonds of thu North-eastern Rail? road. The value of the properly, tims levied, is far in excess of tho amount of the execution. - Char liston News. A NAVAL RATTLE-A FICHT OFF On: COAST PROBABLE.-During our late little unpleasantness, thecitizcus of Cherbourg had a holiday sight in witnessing the ocean duel between the Kearsiirgo and tho Alabama. New Yorkers maj* proba? bly have au opportunity of enjoying a similar sensation now, for there are in our waters tho North German frigate Ancona, of 100 horse-power and twenty eight guns, and tin; French frig.de Semi? ramis and tho school-ship Jean Bart. Half a dozen loagues would not bo too long a sail for sensation-loving New Yorkers to go to seo this fight. [New York World. Everybody, po to Pollock's! CALI* FOR A FOURTH CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT NOMINATING CONVENTIOI?.-W? earnestly urge upon all those citizens of every County of tho Fourth Congres? sional District who are not in slavery to tho Union League, to meet on tho first Monday of August next, at their re? spective Court Houses, and appoint dele? gates to a convention to nominate a can? didate for Congress, to be held on the Thursday night following, in the oity of Columbia, and not, as has been sug? gested, at Greenville. Columbia, though not iu thc Fourth Congressional Dis? trict, is"accessible by railroad in one day, and at bulf the expense, from every County in it. If the couveutiou be held in Columbia, therefore, it will perhaps be moro largely attended, and will more fairly represent the District. A full attendance is greatly to be desired. Let us hear, thou, from the Counties, whe? ther they prefer Columbia or Greenville, through the press, and then through tho Executive Committee of the Union Re? form party.- IVinnshorp Nuns. CHINESE LABORERS FOR SOUTHERN RAILROADS.-Five hundred Chinese la? borers arrived at Chattanooga, Tenn., Friday. They aro tho first installment of 2,000 who aro to be employed on tho Alabama and Chattanooga road. It is stnted by the Lynchburg (Va.) News that the Chesapeake and Ohio Railroad Com? pany intend employing immediately 1,000 Chinese to work on the construc? tion of that road. They are induced to take this step, it ?H said, because thc col? ored laborera havo left, and are still leav? ing, the road in large numbers.

I THE TREATY OF" PRAGUE.-By the treaty of- Prague, which was concluded August 30th, 18G6, Prussia agreed that if the people of 'Schleswig-Holstein Should elect to Unite with Denmark they should be ceded to that country; that she Would abandon and destroy th? fortifi cations nt Luxembourg before taking possession of Hanover. Franco claims that Prussia also agreed to ubaudou Mayeuce wheu she agreed to cede to Austria the territory South of the Main.

Wu invited Spotted Tail; we oller him the right baud of fellow? ship, ami set? no objection at all to Ked Cloud or Furn Hourn being President of tho United States.
