COLUMBIA, S. C. Wednesday tforning, August 3, 1870. Tho Assistant Adjutant-General, El? liott, in his speech accepting thc nomi? nation for Congress in the Third Con? gressional District, stutts that he deems his election of secondary importance to that of Governor Scott. "You might got along without me; you could ill afford to do without Governor Scott." That will do for him. In his speech of acceptance of his nomination for the Fourth Congres? sional District, Mr. A. S. Wallace mado remarkable and gushing remarks. "I bave," says Mr. W., "through terror and through blood, borne the Republican flag for the Fourth Congressional District," &c, &c. We know of no "terror" and no "blood," osceptBuch may have arisen in Mr. Wallace's imagination. As Shnk spenre has it- * "In tho night, imagining aomo fear, How eaBy ia a bush auppoaod a bear." ENGLAND'S NEUTRALITY.-It appears that the indignation expressed by tho London press at the secret treaty alleged by Bismarck to have beep proposed by France to Prussia, does not prevent the honest tradesmen of England from sell? ing, in a secret way, contraband of war to Frunce. At least, the North German Gazelle complains that England supplies Franoe with cartridges with which to slaughter Germans, and soems to doubt if that can bo considered neutrality. But yjen tho Gazette ought to remember that trade is king in England, and that the enterprising merchants of that king? dom have been known to sell contrabaud of war to the enemies of their own coun? try. This was not because they loved England less, but because they ' loved commerce more. Both parties to the present European contest may as well accept the neutrality of Euglaud as moaning that she will not take sides with either, but will sell impartially to both, aud if Prussia cannot obtain goods as readily us France, that is her misfortune in not having a largo navy to protect her merchantmen, and not the fault of Eng? land, which, we dare say, would gladly sell anything she has to anybody, except her honor. Probably, there is no nation in the world which has evinced a stronger disposition to avail herself of the lights of experience than England, and her re? collection of what the wars against the first Napoleon cost her, is likely to make her cautious hereafter about putting her fingers into European battle-fires. Her ruling idea now seems to be that fools make war, and wiso mon profit by their misfortunes, iu the way of selling con? traband and doiug the carrying trade. If she departs from that position, she has less practical sense than she has ob? tained credit for. . It scarcel}- needed the late assurauco of Lord Granville, in the House of Lords, that Euglaud would preservo a strict neutrality between Prussia aud Franco. SOUTH CAROLINA BATTIST STATE CON? VENTION-.-A correspondent of the Charleston Neus, referring to tho meet? ings of this body in Greenville, sa3's: Last night Kev. Dr. Reynolds, of Co? lumbia, delivered an historical address, to a very largo audience. Ho traced tho early history of Baptists in South Caro? lina, aud gave an interesting account of the trials and experiences of thc great pioneers of this d?nomination. Accord? ing to his statements, Rev. Wm. Screven was tho first Baptist minister who locatod in South Carolina. This was about the year 1G73. Georgetown was thc scene of his first labors, but in a few years he re? moved to Charleston and founded the First Baptist Church of that city, about tho year 1GS3. Dr. Reynolds paid a beautiful and deserving tribute to Rev. Dr. Richard Furman, whose, raernoiy is still ;-;o much cherished, not only in your city, but throughout the entiro State. The address of Dr. Reynolds was well received, and displayed that elegant dic? tion and classic finish for which the learned divine is so well known. To-day tho delegation to the conven? tion was considerably increased by fresh arrivals, and it is how estimated that the convention is larger than any held .since tho war. --o . ? The New York Herald shows, in a pithy paragraph, that German Unity, or rather a Prussianized Germany, may bo better brought about by war than by peace. Thc Prussian reason is tbua given: "lu a state of peace the South Ger? man countries have au independent ex? istence, but during war they become practically a part of tho Prussian power. War, then, effectively joins South Ger? many to tho North German Union. And this is the reason why war may be re? garded without displeasure at Berlin; for when war has once added these South German Slates to Prussia, we may trust Bismarck that they will hover bo free again." Tho infected buffalo rubes arc sup? posed lo have reached as far as Chicago. During tho past week, two easies of .small? pox worn brought to thc notice of thc health officer, lt is lo bc hoped that the "?rail" may not bo traced any further thi.s season. THE REPUBLICAN MASS MEETING GREAT EXCITEMENT-SEPARATE MEETING OF THU FACTIONS, .fcc.-Tho mass meet? ing of th? Republicans, called to take placo at the Battery yesterday afternoon, was attended bj both tho Bowen and DeLargo factions, although ft waa pretty generally understood that it was to be principally in the interest of the Bowen ites. At times bloodshed seemed immi? nent, and many a side fight occurred. T. J. Mackey received a severe blow from a bystander. Upon the whole, it was ono of tho bitterest and most intem? perate political gatherings that has ever occur roil in this city, and reflected great discredit upon thoso engaged in it. The excitement was not confined to the Battery, but was continued up into tho city, and for several hours knots of angry disputants monopolized the cor? ners. That there is trouble in the radi? cal ranks can no longer bo gainsayed in tho faco of yesterday's doings; let the Reformers close up and maintain a steady front, and ere they expect it, victory will perch on their unsullied banner. [Charleston Courier. MOLDING THE GALLOWS IN ILLINOIS. A riot occurred at .Shel hy ville. Ul., on the 20th, arising from the Governor commutiug the sentence of Hubbard Holden, who was to have been executed with Joseph Myers for tho murdor of Plebcsco Calhoun, committed two years ago. This caused great indignation, as it was asserted that Holden pleaded guil? ty of murder, and did tho shooting. Tho Governor was denounced on all sides, and Tuesday night it was expected that tho jail would be attacked and My? ers released. Tho jail was guarded by a hundred armed men. On Friday morn? ing attempts were mado to tear down the fence enclosing tho gallows, but they were repplsed by the guard. Myers was executed, and ten minutes afterward tho mob charged ou tho fence and tore it down, but finding they were two late to save Myors, they dispersed, sweariug vengcauco against tho Governor. But for tho conciliatory speeches of several leading citizens blood would have been shod. i DISASTROUS FIRE IN PHILADELPHIA Loss $DO0,0?0-FinEMEN CRUSHED TO DEATH.-Tho Pennsylvania Sugar Re? finery of Newhall, Boric ?fc Co., was de? stroyed by firo on tho 26th ult. The sugar ro?nory of Newhall, Boric Sz Co. was seven stories high, and was filled with valuable machinery and a large stook of refined sugars. During tho fire, the rear wall foll on an adjoining build? ing, crushing it and carrying down nine firemen, all of whom aro believed to bo dead. Tho surrounding buildings were much damaged. FIRE.-About: four o'clock yesterday morning an alarm of fire was raised in King street, near Market, and on inves? tigation was found to be in a rear room of the clothing establishment of J. Ben? nett ifc Co., who occupied tho building known as No. 244, and owned by a Mr. Harris. Thc firemen, with their charac? teristic promptness, wore on tho spot, and succeeded in oonfining thc li?mes to the inside of the store, tho contents of which were destroyed aud damaged. It was pretty evident that it was the work of an incendiary.-Charleston Courier. A Connecticut man recently atc a hearty supper, smoked two BCgurs, went to a confectioner's and swallowed three pints of ice cream, drauk two glasses of ico water, ate au apple and two bananas, with two slices of pine-apple thrown in. Then he went home, ate a pie, drank a cup of tea, and just before retiring took two glasses of lemonade, with a good sized stick iu it.

Lunch every day at Pollock' Ollivier informed tho representatives of the iire.ss, at the interview, yesterday, thut the Government would placo no re? striction on thu publication of accom? plished facts.

Thirsty people, go to Pollock's. Du. LOVICK PIERCE.-The Augusta Constitutionalist, of yesterday, says this vcoerablo diviuc was so badly injured in one of his feet by a run off on tho Geor? gia Railroad, Tuesday last, that he will probably not bc ublo to walk for some time.

Parker, bas been removed from the Superintendency of the Asylum-ft post that he hos held for thirty-four years. Tho removal is mnde by Governor Scott upon thc basis, us he states, of tho recommendation of tho Board of Regents. This Board is, of course, thc Board appointed under tue radical regime, which now ewerts ?ts baleful influenco over so many interests in tho State. It was unnecessary for Governor Scott to add his commcuda tion to the manner in which Dr. Parker has discharged his high and delicato trust. Tho State and tho community arc well iuformed upon this point. It is known with what skill, kiudness and efficiency the late Superintendent ful? filled thc duties of his office. And it is equally well understood that Dr. Parker is removed for no cause whatever, ex? cept that tho demands of PARTY required that his place should bo vacnted by him. We regret that tho Lunatic Asylum bas lost its efficient bend, but we congratu? late tho ex-Suporintcndcnt upon the fact that even party prejudice, in remov? ing him from his place, could couueot with his name and services no disparag? ing circumstance. We arc pleased to be able to say that Dr. Parker's successor, Dr. J. P. Ensor, although a comporativo struuger hero, has commended himself to tho kindly consideration of many of our citizens, and wc consider it fortu? nate that a gcntlcmau like Dr. Eu6or fouud favor enough with thc Regents of the Asylum to receive the appointment. Dr. Parker, wo aro informed, will bo absent for several weeks-having niado all his arrangements to accompany ono of his family to tho springs before re? ceiving notice of his removal. The following is thc official notification: EXECUTIVE DETARTMENT, COLUMBIA, August 2, 1870. J. W. Parker, M. D., Physician Lunatic Asylum, S. C.
