COLUMBIA, S. C. Friday Morning, August 5,1870. Joe Crtws va. Napoleon ?nd va. King William. Oar readers have recently been read? ing the stirring words with which Napo? leon and King William have been ad? dressing themselves to thc natioual pride of their respective countrymen. Bat (how tame do European pronunciamcntos read Bide by sido by tho electrical battle? -cry of that old war-horse of radicalism "Joe Crews," of Laurens! He summons his troops to the rescue. He parades thc virtues of Wallace-inot of Scotland but of York, and ouds with these thrill? ing words: "Republicans of the Fourth District, the viotory I?03 within our grasp, if we will but unite to achieve it! Let us then buckle on tho armor for tho fight, carry? ing consternation aud dismay into the very ranks of tho ouemy, and until tho set of sun on tho 18th day of October next, let our battle-cry be, Scott! Ban? dier! Wallace, and Victory! " 'Let us have peace.' " Who will deny, now, that "Joe Crews" is not tho man for making appeals as well as money ? Napoleon and Bismarck & Co. must now stand aside, for Joseph Crews is on the war-path. "On with tho .dance!" ? ?* .?-? Tile Theatre or War. It is tho good fortune of Belgium, which, in so many continental WO/fs, has >been the battle-field of contending na? tions-the cook-pit of Europe, as it has been not inappropriately called-this .time to be couqtcd out. Not only that, but like trespassers "warned off," aud threatened with the law, the combatants ?iave been told beforehand to march else? where with their stakes and ropes, and find another place to pitch their ring. Tho soil of the Low Countries-Flan? ders, as it was formerly called-has drunk enough blood. Not one of its principal towuB but has been repeatedly besieged, sometimes taken and re-taken repeatedly during tho same war, or in a .single campaign. Not ono of its little streams but has hud its water crimsoned .with the blood of wounded and dying oien, while the grass of its meadows has been made greener by the graves which is covers. Not to go back to medieval times, Alva and the Prince of Orange, Marlborough, Turenne, Conde, 'Saxe, Taubau, Napoleon, Wellington, names ?he most illustrious in military annals, Are associated with battles and sieges which have tokon place in Belgium. It is time that the little kingdom rested from the sights and sounds of war. It has proclaimed its neutrality; England stands apparently ready to enforce it, aud, after the "secret treaty" business, neither France nor Prussia will proba? bly be in a hurry to violate it. So the theatre of war is transferred Southward 3nd Eastward to where the frontiers of France and Prussia join-a narrow strait ?rom Sierck to a point a little East of the fortress of Sa?rbruck, not measuring .over forty miles. Westward lies the neutral ground of Luxembourg, au ap? pendage of Belgium, aud Eastward is the Bavarian Pfalz, not neutral, since Bavaria is allied with Prussia, but not Prussian. Southwardly, where the Shine forms the Eastern boundary of France, is Baden. To indulge in sur? mises as to the probable' plan of cam? paign or movement of armies, when any hour may bring decisive news, would be simply idle. A few general speculations ouiy may be hazarded. Tue magnitude and proximity of the opposing armies, with the facilities on both sides for observation, prompt communication and transportation, almost preclude the pos? sibility of anything like a surprise, or thc successful accomplishment of what we used to hear so much ot' during our cwn war-a flank movement. Such a movement, always dangerous in tho pre? sence of a powerful aud active enemy, vould, nuder present circumstances, be ?ttended with infinite peril to the army attempting it. Whenever aa advance takes place on either bide, it will, thcrc lore, probubly bc a direct advance-a cautious one, no doubt, for the situation compels caution-but one which, if thc two armies are anything like equal in numbers, must lead to a battle. From the present'location of the French and Prussian headquarter?, with tho mass of troops on both sides, it would not be unreasonable to look for that bettie somewhere in tho triaugle formed by Metz, Kreuznach and Coblenz-with the probabilities iu favor of au advance by tho French. Tho invading arni}', of course, caunot select its owu battle-field; thc force which is act!Lg on the defen? sive may. After thc first battle, whither ibo tide of war will ultimately roll whether in thc direction of Paris or Bcr ilu- - whether thc Prussians will bo ablo to maintain their position in front of tho Xibiuo, or whether they will be com? peli?.1, to retire behind that stream, aro I questions which not tho wisest of our military oracles or gentlemen who do thc strategy for the newspapers aro able to answer. In the meantime, tho tele? graph may flash across tho ocean at any momont tho nows that war's dread game has opened in earnest. "Tile Blighted Palmetto.1' Under this heading the New York News, a staunch Democratic journal, comments upon the state of affairs brought upon South Carolina by the radical influence, and ha? the following remarks upon the reform movement: Tbc two parties now havo tboir candi? dates in tho Acid for State officers. Tbc radicals bavo ro-nominatcd Robert li. Scott, of Ohio, for Governor, aud A. J. Ransier, (negro,) of Pennsylvania, for Lieutcuant-Governor. Thc opposition has organized as tho Union Reform Party, aud around its platform havo rallied all tho conservatives in tho State, both white and black. Its candidato for Governor is ox Judgo R. B. Carpenter, a conservativo Republican; and for Licu tonant-Governor, Gen. Matt C. Butler, tho famous cavalry officer, formerly of the Confederate army. Both of tho Uniou Reform candidates are flue orators. Judgo Carpenter has the repu? tation of boiug one of tho most power? ful stump speakers in the South. These gentlemen have been addressing large audiences in different parts of tho State for the past four weeks. Grant's ma? jority in South Carolina in 1SG3, when a full vote was called out, was 17,079. This is a largo majority tojovorcome, when so much of it is composed of gross bigotry and ignorance. But the Union Reformers do not despair of getting a ray of light into the negro braiu, by showing him that his truo interests lie with his own people, rather than with strangers. They are further encouraged by the important quarrel which has arisen in tho radical ranks, between tho Sawyer faction on the one hand, and tho DeLargo (negro) faction on tho other. Whittemore gave his influence to DeLargo in the State Convention, and Senator Sawyer and his friends were kicked out. Out of this feud tho re? demption of the State may eventually be secured. A DiSASTitocs STOBM.-Thc Mobilo Register, of tho 3d instant, contains tho particulars of a disastrous storm, which has damaged the city aud shippiug to tuc oxtont of $250,000. It suya: A peculiarity of our bay and coast is thc August storms, so-called, occurring in some locality every fow years. That of 1852 is tho most memorable in tho annals of Mobile, which escaped any further visitation till 18G0, when the storm of August 2G, doiug its chief da? mage on thc Eastern shore, was succeed? ed by that of tho 8th of Septombor, which discharged its fury principally upon thc city and tho shippiug at the wharves. We havo siuco then enjoyed, until now, an immunity from these spe? cial visitations. The present storm has occurred earlier in the season than any of its predecessors, and has been more sudden in its advent and more; brief in its duration. We are informed that thc baromoter yesterday morning fell to 27J?j inches, sicking two inches in as manj hours. ?-??-?-. TUE RIGHTS OF MINORITIES.-Upon this subject, now receiving thc attention it deserves, tho New York Neus says: Of the Republican statesmen of Ame rica, Mr. Madison was undoubtedly thc ono who saw, tho earliest and most clear by, the indispensable necessity of pro viding in tho scheme of the new govern mont some safe-guard for the rights ol the minority, which should not bo iucon sistcnt with the fuudamental principle itself of popular institutions. lu a let ter writtcu to Mr. Monroe, tho yeai before the adoption of the Constitution, he says: "To secure the public good and pri? vate rights against tho dangers of a fae tious majority, and at tho same timo tc preserve tho spirit and form of populai government, is tho great object to whiel our inquiries should be directed." And afterward, when defending th< Constitution in the Virginia Conventiot ngaiuat thc eloquent assaults of Patric! Henry, who put forward thc claim, ii the name of Democracy, to tho absolu tl and supremo control of a majority o numbers, Mr. Madison opposed the grea lesson of history and human corruptioi when he said: "Ou a candid review of history, wt shall find that turbulence, violence auc abuse of power, by a majority tramplinc on tho rights of a minority, havo pro dticcd factions and commotions, which ii republics, moro frequently than anj other cause, produced despotism." Aud this is pre-eminontly true; for i wo go over tho whole history of auden and modern republics, we shall fine' their destruction generally to have rc suited from theso causes. If wc consi der the present peculiar situation of thi United State.-, wo shall find that there ii great reason to fear that the same cause may terminate hero in tho same fata effects which they produced in those rc publics. A year or so ago, Senator Buckalov brought forward his cumulative systeu in tho United States Senate, and sus lamed it in a very elaborate aud cxbaus tive speech. Its startling truths fell upoi tho public miud with great force, au? gave riso to lengthy discussions. Grea good has grown out of this investigation for already ono of thc Western States Illinois, bas incorporated the ctimulativi system into her constitution, and hence forth minorities will havo rights in tba State. If tho experiment succeeds ii Illinois, it will bo followed in all th Stales of tho Uniou, and we have ni doubt with immensely beneficial effects I Driukists, go to Pollock's. MB. EDITOR: Can you explain to your subscribers tho meaning of certain gen tlemen in different .patts of the State, who labor nuder political disabilities, running for Congress? Don't they know, aud don't the public know, that if they get every vote i n their Congressional Dis? tricts, they will not be allowed to take their scats in Congress, unless they can tako the "iron-clad" oath, or unless their political disabilities havo been romoved?. Why, then, this repeating the farce of 1868, of men running for office who cau not take thoir seats, if elected? Look at both Wallace and H?ge. Each of them was beaten by thousands of votes, and yet both of them have been pormitted to tako their seats, becauso their opponents could not, on account of thoir political disabilities. I fear that some of tho gentlemen who are candidates for Cougress uro laboring nuder the delusion that their political disabilities were removed by tho Inst Congress. If they will only take tho trouble to investigate tho matter, they will discover that the bill before the last Congress, "to relievo certain perssns therein named from the legal and politi? cal disabilities imposed by tho fourteenth article of amendment to the Constitution of tho United States," and which con? tained 3,000 or 4,000 names, did not pass. The bill passed tho Senate, but failed in tho House, aud hence did not become a law. QUANTUM SUFFICIT. North Carolina. The Raleigh Standard publishes tho public confession of sixteen citizens of Alamanco'County, North Carolina, to the effect that they have been members of a secret organization styled the "Whito Brotherhood," or "Constitutional Uuiou Guard;" and that thoy have withdrawn from it, and are sorry for what they have done. It is tho old story of thc reigu of terror-thc cowards and knaves turn State's evidence, and publish their own shame to the world. Among the sixteen, is one Mr. James E. Boyd, who was no? minated by tho Democrats of Alamance for tho Legislature. Holden had him arrested; his wifo got sick; ho begged to see Holden; was allowed to do so-being escorted by a guard to Raleigh for the purpose. Result of interview: Boyd is bailed and publishes his coufession heaping odium on the friends whose ap? probation he had sought, aud whose honors ho had accepted. These peoplo are, by their own public coufessious, im? peached and their testimony mada o*f little value. Holden is both cunning and unscru? pulous. He has managed very adroitly to spread alarm and apprehension among the timid and fearful. Ho thinks, and probably justly, thnt there are enough of these, when joined to his own secret "leagues," to Rive him the victory in the State. Hts coolness in denouncing se- j oret political organizations, while himself being a beneficiary of that sort of party organization, is quito lemarkable. Wo aro glad that tho North Carolina elections will take place at so early a day : as next Thursday. Tho disgraceful and outrageous scenes now occurriug there, which have been gotten up to bear upon tho elections, will probably end ns soou as they are over. But there is one thing that will not end, that is the bad effect of the usurpa? tion of power by the Governor in a timo of peace, and bis trampling upon the courts, the constitutional aud legal tri? bunals for tho punishment of crime and tho protection of the citizen. That does not wind up with tho elections. It is the sown wind-the seeded retribution the embalmed revenge. Power that is corrupt nover thinks of tho future. It never considers that it may, at some day, ucod tho protection of tho laws aud tri? bunals it now scorns and stamps upon. And so, by their own net, those who misuse it, rob themselves of the only shield upon which they could roly when others succeed to tho power which they havo so vilely abused. Parties are no? thing, principles everything in tho ad? ministration of public affairs. Tho great grievance to the country is tho outrages upon tho laws and upon the public peace aud safety by the atrooious corruptions and usurpations of bad men, such as we uow seo in power in North Carolina. f Richmond Dispatch. RE-ORGANIZATION OF THE PORT ROYAE RAILROAD COMPANY.-Tho Augusta Con? stitutionalist, of yesterday, says: We aro advised of a re-organization and change of officers iu tho Port Royal Railroad Company, by which Mr. H. H. Boody, thc former treasurer of tho com? pany, succeeds Mr. S. C. Millett as Pre? sident. Tho work ou this lino of road is to be at once takon chargo of by Mr. Gustavo Lohibach, eugineer of thc road, under whose direction aud management wo understand that it is to bo pressed forward to completion as rapidly as pos? sible. To that end, ho has already com? menced tho re-organization of a laboring force, having engaged about 1U0 of tho bauds who recently deserted the contrac? tors, Georgo D. Chapman Sc Co., on ac? count of the f.iiluro of the latter to meet their monthly payments. FRENCH GRIEVANCES.-Thc Paris Pays details ti.o "grievances" which Franco has to complain of against Prussia, since 1863: 1863-Convention with Russia during the Polish war. 1861-Violation of Jutland and cap? ture of D?ppel. 1865- Installation of Prince Charles in Rouraanio. 1866- Sadowa. 1867- Luxembourg afluir. Military treaties with the South. 1S6S-Customs Parliament. Non-exo cution of Articlo 5, of tho Treaty of Prague. Annexation of Darmstadt (South of thc Main) to thc Confederation of tho North. 18G9-Military convention with Uadcn. Belgian Railroad affair. Ib7u-Mount St. Gothard Railroad i affair. Spauish throne question. MlBABEAU ON GEPMAN CONSOLIDATION EIGHTY-TWO YEAHS AGO.-Tho North German Gazette publishes an interesting historical fragment. This is the elo? quent discourse addressed, eighty-two {ears ago, by Mirabeau to Germany, in is work, De la Monarchie Prussienne, (London, 1778. V. 405.) It is as fol? lows: Citizens of Germany, to whatever con? dition you may belong, listen to a stranger who honors you because you form a great nation, who, wise, enlight? ened, and less corrupted than most other peoples, are equally incapable by your national character and your posi? tion of subjugating Europe or of tarniug it iuto a wilderness. Regard the banner of the House of Brandenburg as the symbol of your freedom; unite with it, support it, favor its legitimate growth, rejoice at its successes, hinder it as much as j-ou eau from committiug faults, for they will bo fatal to it, as it has uo other reliance than its own capacity. As an admirer of the great king, to whom moro thau all tho rest the House of Brandenburg owes its power, I would tako au interest in this really grand, though still unconsolidated edifice, were it only because it is tho work of that ex? traordinary mau. But wero tho welfare of Germany not bonud up with it, I would not invite you, my country-which is entire Eurdpe-to support thc Prussian monarchy, but to leave wisdom and ex? cellence time to widcu the foundations. To tho discovery of tho means for at? taining this cud ninny long and weari? some nights have beeu devoted. These means aro simply peace and freedom, civil liberty for all, unrestricted trade, religious liberty, freedom of thought, liberty of the press, freedom of things aud of men. Here, as in a fruitful germ, reposes the prosperity of kingdoms. But the Prussian mouarchy is better pre? pared than any other to reap tho glorious harvest that awaits it. Ul is mature for tho great coming changes; no insupera? ble impediment stands in tho way. May the protecting genius of Europe and the human race watch over its fate, and strengthen it in the dangers to which it is exposed. May it thus arrive at thc summit of majesty and power, which it by justice and wisdom alone is capable of reaching. AMERICAN SYMPATHY WITH PRUSSIA. The foolish attempt of the Republican party to utilize the present outburst of German patriotism will prove no excep? tion to thc uniform rule. Our Germau citizens sec through and despiso it. Their enthusiasm is spontaneous and gouuiue, and therefore respectable; but tho attempt to rais3 a Republican chorus is sheer demagoguism. The Germans arc uot absurd enough to expect our Government to aid Prussia, aud they sc.' as clearly as wo do that tho question cannot enter into American politics. Thc grounds and probablo results of the war arc a proper enough subject for in? dividual opinion, but not for political action. Whether pro-Prussian or pro French sympathy is well bestowed, de? pends upou whether free and wise go? vernment will bo promoted in the coun? try to which we give our good wishes-a question which nobody can answer at this early stage of the quarrel. [Nea York World. A new trade has sprung up between Egypt and Euglaud. The old land of tho Pharoahs is sending the boues of its millions of mummies to the shores of thrifty Albion, where they aro reduced to powder and used as fertilizers of the soil. Euglish agriculturalists express a decided preference for thc ancient bones, having discovered, by long practice, that they exert a beneficial iuflucuce ou tho turnip lands, whero tho famous Southdown sheep arc raised and fat? tened. Thus tho remains of the aucieut Thebans aud Memphians serve to fur? nish food for thc tables of the London? ers of our own day. AN OMISSION IN THE APPROPRIATION BILL.-By an oversight the last appro? priation bill contained no provision for tho payment of tho salaries of tho janitors at any of the post offices or court houses, and tho Secretary of tho Treasury has sent ont a notico of this fact. Inquiry was mado from several quarters whether theso persons could not bo paid from some other appropriation, but thc Secre? tary replied that under the new law he could not transfer funds in any case. So, hereafter, post-masters and judges will havo to do their owd sweeping and build their own fires till Congress can remedy their troubles next winter. VERY STRANGE.-Of thc fiv.e promi? nent instigators of Mumford's death, but one-thc chief assassin-remains alive, and he, though as hard as flint to the world's reproach, is a moral leper. The other four, according to tho New York Democrat, have died terribly and swiftly. Andrew J. Butler lived miserably after his return from thc South, and then desperately committed suicide. Bell, a member of Butler's staff, and also of the military commi ssion, died a raving luna? tic. Hnggerty, tho Judge Advocate, perished in thc streets of New Orleans of delirium tremens. Another member of tho stud", and au interested party, re? cently, at Houg Kong, blew out his brains. A LITTLE GIRL BURNED TO DEATH. We regret to learn that a little girl, two and a half years old, a daughter of Francis M. Gibson, living a few miles from Monnt Willing, was so badly burned, on Saturday, thc Otb of July, that she died in about six hours. Thc child took fire while tho motlier was absent a short while from tho house. I Edgejhld Advertiser. At Morris, Illinois, Saturday night, two miners, namod Alex. Me Alpine arni James Oswald, got iutoxicated, laid down on tho Chicago and Rock Island Railroad, were run over and toru to fragments.

TAXES REPEALED.-The new tax bill provides that from and alter the first of October next, all taxes imposed upon carriages, watches, piano-fortes, billiard tables and gold and silver plate shall cease, together with the taxes upon lega? cies and successions, passports and thc gross receipts of railroad, insurance and other companies. After the first of May, 1871, the special or license tax now im? posed upon all kinds of dealers, pbysi ciaus, lawyers, brokers, claim agents, Sec., will be discontinued, except that paid by distillers, brewers, cigar and to? bacco manufacturers. The tax ou sales also ceases after the first of next Octo? ber, except that paid by stamps, (bro? ker's tax,) together with the stamp duties on promissory notes for less amount than S100, such notes now requiring a five cent stamp. Thc two cent 6tamp upon receipts for money is abolished from Oc? tober first, and tho income tax of 2)4 per cent, on all over 62,000 shall be col? lected only during the years 1870 and 1871. Tho license tax, due Moy first, has already been paid in advance for the present year, hence, persons will not be called upon again for that. CRUMBS.-Mr. P.

The New York Express charges that tho majority of thc people are gamblers by nature, and that they will lay wagers upon almost everything, and as evidence, cites tho fact that in ono public placo of resort in that city, on Saturday night, July 23, bets to the amount of ??200,000 were made concerning the result of the war in Europe. Tho majority of people would object very decidedly to beiug judged by New York. The slang expression "blinky dory'' is Scotch, aud is a synonyme of the Latin "nou compos." He is "nuco* dour in thc uptak," is thc full expression, and means half-witted. "Quo" opens the tempting feast spread for the young in Morry's Museum for August.
