COLUMBIA, S. C. Sunday Horning, October 9,1870. It ia believed in London, from tho constant passage of EngHsb and Prus? sian couriers between their respective capitals and the Prussian headquarters, that an armistice is being considered. Reports sro carrent that a suggestion ?B being disouseed for the iucorporation of both Mecklenburgs into Prussia, the Grand Dukes thereof to bo compen? sated by the coesion to them of Alsace and Lorraine. The reputed manifesto of Napoleon in favor of a French-Prus? sian alliance is officially contradicted at Berlinj and the Empress Eugenie repu? diates any direct or indirect connection with the London paper in which it ap? peared, or with any other newspaper. A Berlin telegram asserts that Marshal Bazaine still adheres to the Emperor. A message from Paris to an English jour? nal states that at a meeting of tho coan oil of ministers on the 29th ult., Favre and Arago protested against further con? tinuance of the war without consultation with the people, bot that Karatry, Tro chu and Rochefort dissented. THE FALL ELECTIONS.-A great deal of interest centres in the elections which will be held this month and next, as upon the result of these elections de? pends the character of the forty-second Congress. There are a number of Radi? cals in the present House of Representa? tives who were ol cc tod by small majori? ties. For instance: Root,.of Arkansas, had only 467 majority; Julian, of Indi? ana,.116, (although defeated before the people, he was awarded this majority by the House;) Orth, of Indiana, 457; Hill, of New Jersey, 78; Ketehum, of New York, 425; Schenck, of Ohio, 245; Ste venson, of Ohio, 497; Smith, of Ohio, 333; Winans, of Ohio, 105; Wolker, of Ohio, 462; Bingham, of Ohio, 416; Cake, of Pennsylvania, 225; Mercer, of Penn? sylvania, 811; Cessna, of Pennsylvania, 54; Paine, of Wisconsin, 429. In the twenty-first district of Pennsylvania, Foster was elected by a majority of 41. but the Radical House of Representa? tives gave Covode the seat. It will be seen that-a slight chango in opinion will in many of these districts, and in many others as well, where the vote was nearly as close, change the result. The Demo? crats are confident of carrying many of these close districts. On the 11th of this month elections will be held in In? diana, Iowa, Ohio and Pennsylvania. COLUMBIA, S. C., October 8, 1870.

EDITOR: In the month of May, 1869, the PHCW-OC contained order? for the rogolation of the "Sunday Batta? lion," signed by tho Mejor Commanding, the fifth paragraph of which, sajo: "At evening e or vico, parade, until further orders, is dispensed with, but mombnrs of the organization may attend at their u*nal rendezvous, if so disposed. It is, however, moat earnestly requested that no laughter, or othor noises, be made at the ohuroh doors, so that the preachers and hearers may not bo dis? turbed. Reform that altogether, for the praotice is dishonorable, and the batta? lion most see to it that no unseemly be? havior he allowed on any pretense what? ever." / This request of the Commandant scorns to have fallen on listless ears, ns it is meekly ignored by members of the battalion. They assemble in front of some of the churches of onr city, and spend the hour of worship in smoking cigars and in laughing and talking, to the annoyance of the minister and hearers. Is there no remedy? It hos, to use the mildest term admissible, under the circumstances, become a nuisance, and calls for the speedy interposition of the "Major Commanding." DISTURBED HEARER.

BUTLER AND JCDGE BACON.-Tho an? nouncement having been rna Jo on our bulletin boord, yesterday, that General Butler would address tho citizens last evening, the Court House wo9 crowded at un early hour with a mont intelligent and earnest crowd. Upon motion of Maj. Seiblew, Col. Thomas was called to presido over tho meeting. After some prolimiuary remarks, tho chairman in? troduced, as tho first speaker, Judge Bacon, the caudidate of the Reform party for Congress from this Congressional District. Judgo Bacon spoke with force and eloquence, and made a number of striking points. Next, General Butler was announced. Ho was received with great applause Geuerai Butler proceeded to repeat his charges against Governor Scott, and to accompany them with distinct specifla tions. He repeated and re-affirmed them all, aud io connection with his charge that Governor Scott had made certain pledges on tho evo of the last Presiden? tial election, with regard to tho colored members of the Legislature, &c, Gene? ral Butler read n letter from General Hampton, which produced a profound sensation. General Hampton fully con? firmed tho charge that had been made in connection with his interview with Governor Scott. At this late hour, we have time only to add that General Buller literally ex? coriated Governor Scott und other State celebrities, and made a powerful and telling speech, closing with an eloquent appeal to ull good citizens to mako a grand effort to redeem and restore the State. General Butler was urged to leave the Court House, and speak in the open air, but he found it more conve? nient to remain where ho could refer to the documentary evidence with which he fortified his assertions. The gns having boen probably tam? pered with, the audience was ut one time thrown into darkness, but order was preserved, and the lights were re-es? tablished with candles, and in spite of this and the noise of the outsiders, the occasion was carried to a brilliant close.
