Swifts j?ojrni^rHPTei^^|^; THE WAS ON NEW YORK IN 1870, AND OH BOSTON IN 1770.-The wat -which General Grant and the administration myrmidons aro making oje Now York in 1870, 'says the Cincinnati Enquirer, strongly resemblee ihkl "which the old British King, George III, made npon Boston a century before. Troops in large numbers are now being aeut to New York by the Federal Government for the pnrposo of intimidating its citizens and controlling the political action of elec? tors. This was what tho British min? istry, with the consent of a tyrannical monarch and an odious Parliament, did in 1770. "They sent cue red-coats to Boston, thfa rebellious capital of New England, to enforce tho stamp and other obnoxious acts that were iuveuted to op? press and impoverish the American peo? ple. So, now, Grout sends his armed force to New York, under pretense of en? forcing an odious and unconstitutional election law, that is designed to secure the same.end. Oar fathers of 1770 met this military usurpation upon tho threshold, lu Boston and Massachusetts it was openly resisted. The soldiers were compelled to leave the town and take refago in Castle William. The whole country sympathized with tho city, whose rights were thus invaded, and the fires of liberty blazed from the hill-sides in Maine to those of Georgia. The w?r prosecuted by tho British Go? vernment On Boston a century ago, was mo^.honorable, however, than that of ohs administration oh New York nt thc pret?j?nfc tinte'. Tdiat was an ago. of regal proscription; this h . ooo of popular liberty. The relations between Great Britain and the col?nr?s;\vere Ulrdefiued; in the United Sia?fes tuey=?i?o'ocarately drawn betweeu "tho States and the Federal Government. George theVKjng, in sending his military force to Boston, bad an excuse that cannot be set up for our Ulysses the First, who threatens to sweep tho streets of New York with his gun-boats, and to take tho ballot-boxes with his soldiers and marines. We, in 1870, have fearfully degenerated from the revolutionary pluck and .spirit that was manifested in 1770, or otherwise there would be an answering blast of in? dignation expressed from one end of the Union to tho other at UI?B brutal-may be bloody-policy which has been inau? gurated at Washington. BAD FOR LONGSTREET.-The Lynch? burg Virginian thus speaks of Gen. las. Longstreet, tho renegade: "We have heard from a gentleman of character and responsibility that, after Gen. Lee's death, his former trusted and beloved comrade in arms. Gen. James Longstreet, now United States Surveyor of Customs at New Orleans, and n sup? porter of Grant's Radical Administra? tion, refused to permit the flags of tho Custom House to be lowered at half mast! So it seems that there! are some other people besides Virginians who, when they fall, fall heavy and fall hard. THE ART TREASURES OF PARIS.-Fears have been expressed that the wonderful art treasures arranged in the Palace of tho Nouvre, iu Paris, will be subject to destruction by tho threatened Prussian bombardment. These facts are, in a measure, groundless. The Palace of the Louvre ia situated at a distance of over three miles from any portion of tho en? circling wall, and the detached forts from 1,000 to 6,000 ynrds beyond the walls. The Prussian army lies from one to tbrae miles beyond these forts. Hence the chances that tho palace will receive dam? age from tho bombardment are very re? mote. Only in the event of street fight? ing, with its usual concomitants, suck and pillage, are theso art treasures likely to suffer serious injury. Even thou Ger? man devotion to art may save them. A QUEER BUSINESS.-WO aro informed that when the election commissioners, Messrs. Williams, Gleaves and Langley, were arrested at Beaufort, their clerk was sent by them to obtain the papers containing the record of tho vote in Beaufort County. As thin clerk carno out into tho street, having tho papers in his possession, n match was struck aud a man mado a desperate grab at the pa? pers. The dork drew his pistol and the assailant fled, not, however, before ho was recognized. This man who attempt? ed to steal the election returns is, as we aro informed, Isaac Reid, upon whose affidavit the warrant for tho arrest of Williams, Gleaves and Langley was is? sued, and who was appointed a deputy marshal to execute the warrant issued npou his own affidavit. These are queer ti mesh-Charleston News. Affairs in Mexico, according to the latest advices from tho Mexican capital, aro much moro quiet than they have boon for some timo past. Comparativo tranquility reigns. How long it will continu?is another question. Peace in Mexico is like the little joker of tho gambjor -"Now you see it and new you don't see it." Let us hope, however, for the best aud be thankful for oven thc shortest reign of quietude poor Mexico obtains. A monster, at Cleveland, Ohio, last week, while in a state of intoxication, threw his child out of doors and beat,his wifo to death. TUo City C?ancU and th? CU jr VlaukSMM?. MB. EDitoBi tn fch? pTooeediog? of Cou^r^^ i^bJ?^CML In ,tkB^m*fx> 04, yeaterdtf, we Ind thii fol?owijf g tami "The Committee (that ia. tho Committee of Wa?p? and M>ans,y was instructed to>j report?t the next meeting at what, rate certain unproductive stock can be dis? posed of, and as to the feasibility of so doing." This resolution, I have reason to bo liove, means mischief-means a Ring operation. I desire the City Council to know that the eyes of thc public ure upon them. Let mo see if I cannot foreshadow a big job -a nice affair for soino secrot ring. I learn that the oity of Columbia owns $100,000 of atoe';, in the Charlotte, Co? lumbia and Augusta Railroad. This is the stock that tho Council call "unpro? ductive stock," and aro inclined to sell. But, why sell this stock, which is "flat" now, as tho bankers and brokers term it? "Hereby," I havo reason to be liovo, "hangs a tale"-or a nioe opera? tion. I learn that cortain parties have bought up tho past due bonds of the city of Columbia. Note, to sell the city's siock in ike Charlotte, Columbia and Au? gusta Railroad, and then to pay up thc past due bonds of the city, mostly in the hands of a Ring-is THIS THE (?AME? If so, it may be a good thing for the ope? rators, but it is a bad thing for tho city. It is not good policy, I think, for the city to soil its Charlotte, Columbia and Au? gusta stock at tho present rates. Nor sha!! th? City Council unchallenged sac? rifice tho interests of the city for per? sonal gain. I call upon those members of tho Council, not of the Ring, that may be iu collusion with outside parties to protect the interests, of the city. I do not uso names now, but if necessary, I shall bring the deliuquents out. COLUMBIA.

THE AIMS OF MEN.-The aims of mon are so very different that a mere enume? ration of them would occupy- more space than we can afford. One grand and uni? versal object of mankind, however, first suggests itself to the observer of life, and this is, desire for accumulating wealth. Men toil and strive, for weary years, tc amass a little hoard of yellow dust, one perhaps, after youth, energy and laboi have been expended to secure this, they find that wealth cannot bring happiness aud go disappointed to the grave, searct knowing how to dispose of the frui which wasted life, so far as they are con cerned, produced. It must bo indeed i harrowing reflection to man, ns he near that figurative river which divides timi from eternity, that he has buried im mortal hopes in a sphere undeservinj the tremendous sacrifice; that, thoogl his meed be won, thc triumph is useless Naked we came into the world, unke< we must leave it. The pomp and splen dor of worldly surroundings benefit ni longer their possessor than thc air of th earth sustains his being. As life departs they recede, and leave the spirit oui; nlive to its better instincts. Dross o earth is forever dissevered from thu otherinl substance when it plumes it wiugs for a flight into the unseen, th real and the eternal. But, love of gain if predominant, is not the only life-lov of frail, misjudging mau. There is higher, though not less fallacious ambi tiou-tho last iufirmity of noble minds which, whether on tho battle-field or i the forum-whether hovering around th midnight lamp of tho student, or an; mating tho adventurous explorer, look to fame, rather thau wealth, for its finr reward. Wo confess that thero is some thing in this last-named halluciuatio which demands respect never to bo nc corded to tho mere accumulator of gob; Thero is something in every huma bosom which asks remembrance-eve on earth. Savage nations tacitly by their revoreuco for tho dead, ar plainly seen to share this universal ser timent. Those master works of nr. tiquity, tho pyramids, were doubtlot reared for majestic tombs, aud thc Ir dian hunier, even when abandoning hi hunting grounds and prairies, takes wit him the bones of his fathers, and chant iueir warlike deeds in his wild batt! song. Ossian, of all poets, is, perhaps most effective in allusions to this uuivci sal feeling. "Tho famo that rises iron death" was always, with his misty wai riors, superior in esteem to proson gratification. It is tho virtue of Chris tianity that another and better fame im pels its followers to moro glorious action Looking to a hereafter of eternal dorn tion, the high-thoughted and high-prin cipled Christian awaits his reward til oarth, his probationary theatre, an? time, its concomitant, shall have vanish ed into nonentity. How sublime, in tb: aspect, does his ok'iracter appear! Hot frivilons seem the aims of other, bc aido his, in this view of things: Win I dares assert tho contrary? ~"T?sT'??^?3r,^orj^;-^drtn> mail opens 4?? $,,$.f?\pju3!? fi A,M. .
