COLUMBIA, S..C. thursday ?fforninjr, August 18,1870. The Bourbons and thc Orlcanlst?. ?There have been some speculations as io tho possible successor of Louis Napo? leon, iu the event of his abdication or displacement, and of the coucurrenco of another contingency that Franco will establish a monarchy instead of resorting to a republic. In view of the curiosty thus felt, it may not bo without interest to mention Borne facts couuectod with the two houses whoso representatives are the most prominent aspirants for French sovereignty. The Baltimore Sun says: In 1830, fifteen years after tho allies had overthrown the first empire- and re? stored tho monarchy of tho old regime, Charles X, who had opposed tho pro? gress of liberal ideas, was driven out of France by a revolution, and took rofugo iu tho ancient palace of Holyrood, in Scotland, which had been kindly offered by tho British Government. Notwith? standing his flight, however, he cluug to tho idea that his grand-son, the Duke o? Bordeaux, in whoso favor ho had abdi? cated, was yet to regain the crown. The grand-son was then ton years of age. As the king took leave of his guard, and received from them their banners, he said, "These standards which I now take this child will one day restore to you." This prince, notwithstanding his long exile, has beeu regarded b}- tho old Bourbon party as the legitimate sove? reign of Frauce, under thc title of Heu ry V. When the revolution of 1830 occurred, all tho members of the Bonaparte family had for fifteen years been banished from the soil of Franco. The only son of the first Emperor by his Austrian wife, and who was his immediate and direct heir, was pining away in Austria of consump? tion, and soon after died. There was, therefore, no opportunity for the Impe? rialists to make an effort for tho restora? tion of the empire. In the event of the death of tho young Duke of Bordeaux, just mentioned, the direct branch of the Bourbon lino would becomo extinct, and in that event tho crown would pass to the Duko of Orleans, Louis Philippe, who was afc the head of the collateral branch of tho family. He was a man of ability, of high moral character, of strong tendencies to liberal opinions, and was the richest mau of Frauce. When Charles X was driven out the Duke of Orleans waa promptly ou the ground; his friends were ready for action; his vast wealth enabled him to place at tho disposal of his party any nmouut of money they might need; LaFnyetto and Thiers, mon of great ability aud of con? summate skill iu tho guidance of affairs, mauaged his case, and tho result was that ho was first appointed Lieutenant General by the Chamber of Deputies, and finally made King by a Legislature which had no delegated authority to perform any such act, and by a small miuority which did not exceed a third of tho full number of either the Chamber of Deputies or tho Chamber of Peers. In this connection it may uot be amiss to relate tho following conversation, which is said to have occurred during the course of the proceedings between LaFayette and Louis Philippe: "You kuow that I am a Republican," said LaFayette, "and that I regard the Constitution of the United States as tho most perfect that has ever existed." "I think as you do," replied Louis Philippe. "It is impossible to pass two years iu the United States, as I havo done, aud not be of that opinion. But do you thiuk that, iu the present ?tate of France, a Republican Government can be adopted?" "No," said LaFayette, "that which is necessary for Frauce now is a throne, surrounded by Republican institutions; all must be Republican." But tho liberal sentiments of thc "Citizen King," as Louis Phillipe was called, did not long survive his eleva? tion. Ho was a placid, correct, mercan? tile mau, and personally unexceptiona? ble But, to conciliate tho surrounding dynasties, ho was compelled to adopt measures not consistent with the spirit of Republican liberty and equality which had been generally diffused throughout Franco, and which ho him? self had avowed. Legitimists, Napo Ieonists and Rpnblicans alike dispute his title to the crown. The upshot was that, in 1813, he wrote the following words, under very similar circumstances to those which, eighteen years before, Charles X had written, when he abdicat? ed in favor of his grand-son the Duke of Bordeaux, now generally called the Couut do Chnmbour, both of these children being fatherless aud both minors: "I abdicate iu favor of the Count dc Paris, my grand-sou, and I trust that he will bo moro fortunate than I." It must have been uome consolation to tho unfortu? nate mau that ho took with him from Frauce $GO,000,000, Louis Napoleon being elected first President iu ISIS, and iu 1S52 made Emperor. Eighteen years have elapsed, just tho length of Louis Philippe's reign, and, unless tbe military failures aro soon retrieved, we may perhaps soon hear of another royal abdication. Since tho downfall of Charles X his grandson has lived in Germany; The family of Louis Phillippo ure still living in England. The Count of Paris, re? ferred to abovo, sou of Louis Philippe's eldest son (tho Duko of Orl?ans, who was killed during hii father's reign bj' being thrown from a carriage) is now thirty-eight years of age. lu tho early part of our luto civil war he served with his younger brother, tho Duke ol' Charles, on tho stuff of General McClellan in the Yorktown peninsula. Tho Count of Paris is married to a daughter of tho Duke of Montpelier; thc Duke of Chart ress to a daughter of Prince dc Joiuvil?e. They both offered their ser vices to Napoleon at the outbreak of tho present war, but wo believe they were not accepted, and are said to have lately renewed tho offer. Tho principal other representatives of tho Orleans family oro the second, third, fourth and fifth sons of Louis Phillippe, uncles of the two young men just mentioned. Tho second son is tho Duke of Nemours, fifty-six years old. Tho third son is tho Prince de Joiuville, fifty-two years old, in his father's time n naval commander of re? pute, remembered especially for his ser? vice in Mexico. The fourth is the Duke of Aumale, aged forty-two, who served in Algeria under Bugcoud and Barnguay d'Hilliors, rose to be a marshal of France, and had the glory at lost of receiving Abd-el-Kader's surrender. Tho fifth son is tho Duke of Moutpcnsier, candidate for tho throne of Spaiu. Since 1818 all tho family exoept the last-named have lived in England. There need bc no apprehension, there? fore, that if Frauce wants a King, the supply, as in the case of Spain, will not be equal to tho demand. It may bo, however, that the empire will be -suc? ceeded by a republic, if only, ns before, abridgoto'a monarchy. ?u a military point of view, if the experience of the first French republic affords a fair stand? ard, a republic would be n powerful card for Franco to play. Except under .the first Napoleon, she has never displayed suoh military prowess as when, thc champion of.republican principle, she defied all Europe. THE FETE NAPOLEON.-Tho 15th of j August came, but thc Freuch were not in Berlin. The gay gentlemen of Paris who are said to have laid a wager ou the celebration of ,the fete Napoleon in the capital of tho great Frederick are pro? bably drilling with ex-Minister Duruy in the Gardo Mobile, or with Poul de Cassaignac in the Zouaves, for the der fence of their own brilliant and beautiful metropolis. Thc gun-powder which is aunually burnt and exploded after so gorgeous a fashion around tho Arc de Triomrme is wanted this year for more serious purposes. Thc contrast between all that tho day commemorates and the actual condition of France and of the empire upon which it this year dawned is so obvious, that it is hardly worth while to dwell upon it. It tells its own story-and points its own moral-n morai ns useless ns all the experience of mau. Had the war which began, so liko a pieco of fire-works on the Piucian or the Place do ia Concorde, a short mouth ago, been conducted as the French people expected it to be, the day would doubtless have been signalized by some theatrical feat of arms in the heart of Germany. It is not likely that the commanders of the great army which is now manoeuvring in front of the invad? ing host of the Prussians will trouble themselves to celebrate it iu the same way on the soil of Frauce. CONTINUED LAWLESSNESS IN AEAMANCE. We learn that about daylight, a few morn? ings since, tho mail train on tho North Carolina Railroad was required, by an armed band of Kirk's men, to stop at Graham Station; and that this band, numbering about twelve men, leaped on board with seven citizens ?of Alamance, whom they had seized as prisoners, yell? ing and cursing the prisoners and point? ing pistols at their pei "ns, with threats of instant death, ?c., ?iud in this way took them to the Company Shops. The leaders in the crowd, and most boiste? rous iu their threats, were three negroes, who appeared to take great delight in the scene of barbarity. The defenceless vic? tims appeared to have been taken from their beds in thc night, and not to have been allowed to dress comfortably, and hardly decently. How long aro these outrages und oppressions to continue? [Raleigh (N. C.) Sentinel. Tho language of Thursday's leading article of the French paper in New York, tho Courrier des Etats Unis, is very pointed. The Courrier, it is well known, has always been a warm supporter of Napoleon, but the news from France, it seems, leads that paper now to givo the sign of alarm. Under the head of "Sursum Corda," it says: "What mat? ters that there is a mau named Ollivior, if luis mau leaves us tobe beaten? What matter that thore is a man named Napo? leon, if Napoleon is caduc and his hand too feeble to hold the sword? We do not;;;.ow anybody when there is ques? tion of tho salvation, of the honor, of tho grandeur of France. Let tho power be trusted to whomsoever shall toko it, and in whatever form it may be, bo it this incarnation 01 Lhc people, be it a monarchy or a republic-but let them give us victory." Tnt: NATHAN MuitDEKEi:.-The New York Times, in answer to the question, "What will be done if the Nathan mur? derers aro arrested?" says: "Half a dozen doctors will instantly step for? ward to prove that he is insane. One will apply au instrument to his head, and another will examine his diaphram, and a third will make a study of his heart. They will be able to demonstrate by these tests that tho assassin cannot possibly bo held accountable ior his ac? tions." Ou Saturday last, the colored people had a grand pie-nio at Jalapa, Newberry District-about 1,000 colored and six white persons present.

EDITOR: The Executive Committee of the TJuiou Reform Party do not claim, nor have they the right to control the discussion, except in the canvass for Governor and Lieutenant-Governor. The Executive Committee of the Union Re? publican Party ?eera to have a wide juris? diction. The following correspondence will* explain itself. It is strange that after such a letter (the contents of which must have . been kuowu to the editor,) the Ii<;p'.iblic?7i should make such a reckless announcement, that thc Re? formers would not meet thom, etc. ; still more strange, that A. J. Rausier, the au? thor of the letter, and Heail Ceutre of the porty, who appears to be so auxious for discussion, should absent himself from tli9 meetiug on the lGth, to which he was specially challenged to appear aud meet his opponent, ile says, "we ac? cept tho gauntlet that lins been thrown I down;" why did ho not stay, thou, and [speak?

Is it expected that we will consent to belittle the occasion aud dis? grace the dignity of the first two offices in the State, by meeting every popinjay they may choose to put up? Will Gov. Scott and A. J. Rausier meet Uriah Heap and Timothy Tugmutton? I be? lieve they would not turn the canvass into ridicule, if their party would. Come, Mr. E ?'publican, try it agaiu; givo us the facts. I call upon you to publish this commuuicatiou, with the letters below, and tell us, if you please, why your leaders-Governor Scott and A. J.

THE LITTLE KINGDOM Tn AT NAPOLEON HUNGERS Eon.-Tho kingdom of Bel? gium contains a little moro than 11,000 square miles, upon cadi of which dwell au average of 133 persons, making it thc most densely populated country in all Europe. Its anny numbers about 7-1,000 men, and half-a-dozen vessels comprise its navy. Tho prevailing religion is thc Hornau Catholic, and the French lan? guage is generally spoken. After a long subjection to Spain and Austria, and a forced subjection to Frauce under tho first Napoleon, Belgium was united to Holland in 1S15. Tho connection was very unpleasant, however, aud in 1S30 the Belgifius revolted. Three years later their independence was guaranteed, and a king furnished them in tho person of Leopold, of Saxe-Coburg, tho bereaved husbnud of the Princess Charlotte, of England. Ho was a .sagacious monarch, and. though u Protestant, was popular among his Catholic subjects. He mar? ried a daughter of Louis Phillipe, of France, and died abrv.-.t five years ago, leaving his eldest sou King in his stead. His daughter is tho unhappy widow of Maximilian, of Austria, Napoleon's pup? pet in tho invasion of Mexico. The late King Leopold was tho favorite uncle of Queen Victoria, and boneo fatuity sym? pathies combine with political necessi? ties in making Great Britain exceedingly solicitous for the welfare of Belgium. Should Napoleon pounce on tho king? dom, either ho or Prussia would swollow up Holland, and tho freedom of England in tho Northern seas be seriously men? aced. If Frauce is desirous of a second Waterloo, she can seek it in no place more acceptable to her opponents than on the soil where the first was fought. THE CARPET-BAGGER. -The New York Journal of Commerce, one of the most moderate of American papera, is really gleeful over the prospect of a carpot-bag Waterloo. It thinks North Carolina has tho honor of giving SUowhcgauites tho first grand warning of the wrath to come, so far as their distinctive political career in tho South is coucerued. Hoar this: "The iudignation, if not the blood, of tho South is now np, and the carpet? bagger hereafter will have to uiovc on with the almost ceaseless march of the Wauderiug Jew. That man must bo a thorough-goiug partisan who is not glad to throw a shovelful of earth upon the political coffin of the carpet-bagger. He hos been the curso of the South duriug his brief locust-like existence there. He took uothiug there but his carpet-bag, with its paper couteuts as aforesaid, his hate of the South aud his unscrupulous ambition. He had no interest in South? ern industry or Southern development. He wos a messenger of war, aud not of peace; or it was out of the disturbances which he spared no effort to foment, and for which he always had at hand the remedy of powder aud cold steel, that he expecred to probt. His vote at the last session of Congress was generally to be fouud ou the bad side of all political and financial questions. For jobs he has the fondness of a mouse for cheese, and was usually detected burrowing away the centre of every rich contract or franchise. Such is the species carpet? bagger-the worst of all the genus poli? tician. We congratulate the South aud the country that the fiat of a plundered and indiguaut people is abo'ut to stamp tho political life out of the whole odious race." THE TIEX-ISIX MASSACRE.-The details of the massacre nt Tien-tsiu, China, which have just been received, show that twenty-two Europeans aud thirty or forty Chinese children were murdered. Among the victims were nine sisters of charity, who were horribly mutilated. The internal fixtures and furniture of eight Protestant churches were torn out and demolished, and eighteen places of worship destroyed. The Europeans killed, except three Russians, were French. The Chinese childrcu killed were pupils attending Christian schools, and many more of these would probably have been murdered had not the parents of 250 childreu removed them from the schools just before the massacre. Jim Fisk is said to be driving the Pre? sident to the verge* of madness by a scries of petty persecutions at Long Brauch. Mr. Fisk drives bis six-iu-haud furiously past His Excellency on the beach, filling the Presidential heart with chagrin, and the Presidential eyes with dust. And the Prince is said to be in the habit of holding bis nose, as if he smelled something, wheu His Excellency saunters by. This is damnable. It is said that thc head of tho nation cannot take a quiet promenade without being treated as if he wore a night cart by a Yankee peddler; but, really, we don't see what we are going to do about it. Mr. Fisk's nose is his own, and can any? body blame him for holding his own? AN Isvci.NEKAnr.E CUIRASS.-The Courrier iles Etuis Unis gives the follow? ing account of this invention: It is a cloth cuirass of a tissue extremely sup? ple and tight, the stitches of which are exceedingly close and absolutely im? permeable. The process of making aud preparing it is a mysteiy, but what appears to be claimed is that bullets will not penetrate it; they glauce off or fall harmless. The inventor himself is said to have stood the test of this. Clothed in a sort of lianne] vest, very light, he re? ceived the charge of a gun without ex? periencing so much as a bruise. This belongs to the class "important if true." ARRIVAL OF THE PRESIDENT OF LIDE RIA.-The steamship Palmyra, from Liverpool via Queenstown, brought to this port, among other passengers, President Rove, of the Liberian Rcpnb 'ic, in Africa, and his Private Secretarj*. They applied for admission at several well-known hotels, but wore not per? mitted to enter on account of their color, and were conveyed in a coach to thc office of their agent in Wall street, who succeeded iu having them cared for at a private house.-Neto York Tribune, A singular marriage was recently so? lemnized in tho Mammoth Cavo of Ken* tucky, at the desire of tho bride, who had promised her mother that she never would many the bridegroom "on tho face of tho earth." The recess of the cave whero tho ceremony was performed has since been known as thc "Bridal Chamber." ANOTHEI: FRATRICIDE.-A colored mun was lodged in jail last week for the mur dor of his brother. We learn that the two brothers were playing cards, and a dispute arising, one deliberately cut thc other to death with a knife. . [ Newberry Herald. A despatch from Mr. Turner to the North Carolina Sod i ucl states' that the Yauceyville prisoners bavo all been re? moved to Company Shops.

Beullo had conceived the idea of recapturiug 1,200 Confederate prisoners on Johnson's Island, Lake lirio, but foll a prisoner aud was tried and sentenced a3 a spy. It was at Seward's instanco that Bealla was executed, aud Booth vowed a veugeauco which he consum? mated. DEATH OF A VETERAN.-Joseph Zelo zosky, a Pole, au old soldier under tho first Napoleon, died iu New York, on Friday last, aged ninety years. Tho de? ceased served uuder Murat, in the Rus siau war, saw Moscow burned, got safely back to France, was made sub-lieuteuaut by thc Emperor, served tho Bourbous during Napoleon's Elba life, rejoined the Emperor ou his re-eutrj iuto France, fought at Waterloo, and after the down? fall of Napoleon, was exiled to this country iu 1S35. THE NATHAN INQUEST.-The New York Evening Post, of Saturday, says: "Few people will be surprised at the result of the inquest iuto the Nathau murder. It lins, fortunately, removed from the sons of Mr. Nathan the painful suspicions which were, without cause, as is now plain, thrown upon them by reckless per? sons." Wno WOULDN'T CE A PRIMA DONNA?

In vain we drew thc bow agaiu and again. Only the same detestable, keen tone was eli? cited. In a rage, barely able to refrain ironi stamping the instrument upon the floor, we awoke.
