COLUMBIA, s. c. Tuesday Morning, May 30, 1871. TH ii TRIBUNE PHILOSOPHER IN TEXAS,' -?We have . lang regarded Mr. Horace Greeley a poor philosopher, bat a kind? hearted man-sincero, though not uh > frequently mistaken ia his oonviotiona. Certain jit is, ho wovor, that.be ha? wiold : ed and still wields considerable influence opon the Radical party of the North through the Tribune. He ia now ou a visit to Texas-the Empire Stato of tho South-to deliver tho annual addr?ss at the Texas Stato Fair at Houston. ' We regard it a good move on tho part of tho association to bavo thus .selected "the philosopher of tho Tribune." Ho will BOO for himself tho. condition of tba South, and judge for himself of the tem? per-of the Southern people. He will find bis mind disabused of many preju? dices and false impressions. Ho will, of course, find himself treated ; with cour? tesy. He will probably bavo delightful impressions of Texas aad tho Texans.

Probably this:-veracious gontlemati may romembcr publishing last winter, an account of tho murder of Wiley Dru-, per, near Cross Keys, iu Uuion conuty, by the horrid Ku Klux. Thia wu?, ac? cording tc the Union's definition, asensa (ional report. A fow days after tho publi? cation of this report, hu wns called upon by a gentleman of undoubted veracity, who assured bim that it was i fabrica? tion, and requested bim to correct it. Instead of doing Ibis simple net of jus? tice, he came out in bis next issue with n reiteration of the false assertion, that Wiley Draper bad boen murdered. ' In tba other ease, thu Union editor undertook to correct what bo oiled some misrepresentations of the Raleigh, North Carolina, Sentinel, in 'rofprebco to tho arrest and incarceration of several citizens of Laurens, for alleged com? plicity in certain murders committed in that County a day or two after tho elec? tion, last fall. lu that correction, bo denied that tba writ of /tabeas corpus had been disregarded in tho easo of those prisoners, und wound up by saying that the prisoners bad'been liberated; wbon it.was a notorious fact, that, ibo-great Writ bad been disregarded iii their case, and every body in Columbia, except this wide-awake, truth-loving editor, knew that the prisoners were then in jail, right bore in this city, and wcro so held, in durance vile, for sevoral days after his assertion that they had been set at liberty. Now, Mr. Editor, as the presiding genius of the Union plumes himself on his industrious endeavors in obtaining and publishing'tho nows,' it is presum? able'that'hu would not feel compliment? ed should-we charge bim with ignorance lu the cases'referred to. To what shall we charge bis app'erent tergiversations? Is it moral oil.quity?' Surely not. Sure? ly one who is so full of expressions mani? festing a desiro-to do full justice to every one, would pot wilfully pursue such an unfair course, i Be this aa it may, Wiley Draper still lives to attest that the Union published one outrage that never hap? pened; and the legal records iu tho case, and the columns of that paper, attest tbat he <fenleaf tho' occurrence of one, while it was still in cxistenco. As tho defiance wan given .foe a "singlo in? stance," and we have given two in? stances, one of thc precise nature called for, and the other of the same nature, "with a ?light Variation," we desist for the present. ARGUS. 1 A PEN PICTCBE OP PRESIDENT DAVIS. Tho Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel fur? nishes, the following pen picture of Pre? sident Jefferson Dav fa. as be appears to? day: The central figure, of thc group is a tall but thin man, straight as un arrow, and with moro the port and bearing of a soldier than u statesman, though bis manners aro moat winuing and graceful, and every comer is immediately put at bia ease. , A handsomely slurped head, covered with thick iron gray hair (strange this is, for few men in America sport na? tural bair after fifty). The face is thin and narrow, and the cheeks aro sunken somewhat,, but tho forehead is high and intellectual, and the nose, slightly aqui? line, is delicately chiseled. Tho bps, drawn rather cloaely together, don?te tba extraordinary firmness and resolu? tion _ charuot cristie of tho man. The chin is covered with beard, and in addi? tion to a goatee, be bas allowed beard to grow upon his cheeks, and a olosely trimmed moustache is sported upon the upper lip. The board is like the huir "a sable streaked with silver." The bands are narrow and symmetrical, and .tbs fingers tapering and aristocratic. His whole appearance donotes the high? est nervous organization, combined with a wonderful quantity of brain-power. Always unostentatious in his attire, Mr. Davis wore last night a neat but unpre? tending suit of gray, tho color remind? ing one of tho cloth worn by tho soldiers of tho "Lost Causo." A SKILI?PUIJ SUIIOIOAII OPERATION.-A very skillful and successful surgical operation, tbat of tho transfusion of blood from a lamb to a btimau body, wus performed in this city on last Fri? day afternoon by Drs. J. F. King and J. E. Wiuants. The subject was a colored man, an inmate of the City Hospital, who bas be Qu suffering for some time past and who has lately seemed in danger of death from mere exhaustion. When laid upon the table he was too weak to talk, and appeared to have' but a few boura of lifo lqft to bim. When his vein *waa opened but one drop of blood fell from it. Tho Carotid artery of tho lamb was'opened and tho blood was forced from thence, by tho palpitation of thu animal's heart, through n small glass tube, into tho patient'scopbalio vein. lu thia way, about eight ounces of blood was convoyed from tho iumb -to the man. Tho operation wnaentiroly satisfactory in its results, and tho patient is now doiug very well. This is, we boliovo, tho first operation of the kind ever performed in .this oity, and wo aro not sure that it bas over before boen attempted in tho Stato. It was a dolicate one, and will bo woll worthy of a full report in some of tho surgical journals of tho day, I \Yil1ni7\glo\ Journal. -^-. ? . Tbore are. twenty-seven candidates in the field f&r Governor of Massachusetts, A STRICKEN CITY.-The New York He? rald's ^ Montevideo correspondent write? as follows, ol the ravages of yellow fever in Bile noa Ayres: . .- , ' ' ' ' Fa nr iii cs are broken np abd scattered ; husbands; abandon their dying .wives; mothersl?avo their children tb die alone, and in some oases entire families are swopt away. As many , as" five or nix corpses have beeb discovered in a single house, and there.?B a lack of laborers to porform the duties of removal and se pulturo of the dead. There is also, as might naturally be supposed, a scarcity o". pbysioiuns and nurses to 11 end th ; sick in the various hospitals, and where almost every inhabited bouse is a mi? niature hospital in. itself, th/; extent of tho suffering must bu indeed dread? ful. Several of thu must eminent physicians of Montevideo volunteered to tho succor of tho stricken Buenos Ayrcuns, and have labored with a zeal in tbo faco ol nu imminent and terrible death that stamps them us heroes aud philanthropists second* to none iu thc world's history. Bich and poor arc alike stricken with the malady, uud it is doubt? ful whether yellow fever ever before,.nt least in tho New World, held Hitch ti ghastly carnival among mankind. "A now cemetery to receive thc fever victims bas been opened in tho campo South of the city, toward tho Riaohulen, tho old pantheons being inadequate, A tram railroad has also been laid from the city to this new necropolis, and tho bo? dies aro carried out on the trucks like so much packed freight.' There is no time to construct collins or burial cases. The stock on, band was long since ex? hausted, and the undertakers bavo in some instances fled from the terrible har? vest of business that has sprung up. , "About 150,000 persons have fled.'tbe -Ciiy.-soirie biking refuge in Montevideo and tho towns up tho river Barana, hut by far the larger portion aro iu the campo, within a distance of from ten to fifty miles from Bueuos Ayres, i'ea sauts and gauchos living in miserable mud-walled buts, with straw roofs, bavo been besieged'with importunate tenants from among the wealth, and aristocracy of the republio, and, in scores of case?, aro receiving as much as $230 to $500 per month rent for their squalid abodes. Familios wbo lived in superb style two months ago are now cowering among tho buts on tho plains and sleeping on beds laid upon the floor or earth." HELD HER BREATH FOEVER-The Alexandria (Va.) Gazette mentions thu novel suicide of a little girl twenty-one months of age, tho child of Mr. Wm. Deavers, about niue miles below Alexan? dria, on the Poh?ck road.- Tho child held her breath while in a pct, as chil? dren frequently do, and died, although she was perfectly well before tho crying fit. Au effectual way to prevent un? fortunate results of this kind is to throw cold water-in the. face of tho child us soon as it'begins to hold its breath. Tho shock of .the water will make it gnni;, und necessarily force it to take breath, as well as divert attention from thc fit of auger. -The Radical negroes of Henderson mobbed the Democratic negroes who lately voted, in tho municipal ?lectiou. On last Saturday night tho "trooly loil" beaded.by'Allen Eaton, a colored J. P., attacked tho Democrats in asbop belong? ing to the latter, and severely wounded two of them. Here is a case for Mr. U. S. Commissioner Shailer and bis Ku Klux hunters.-Battleboro Advance. A man recently died in Indiana from u wound received at tho battle of Queenstown, Canada, in 1812. Au once mnsket baril which had remained imbedded, in the bones of bis face over fifty-eight years, ulcerated its way into bis mouth and was spit out. From this cause inflammation arose, which, extend? ing, termihatod fatally. Joseph Singleton, a laborer, died sud? denly in Beaufort on Friday lust. He bud drank an immoderate quantity of water au hour previous to bis death, aud had beoome heatod by his work, and congestion of the stomach bad followed, resulting in inflammation, cramp and deatb. lu July, 1872, tho grand explosion, which is to remore the obstructions at Hell Gate, New York, is to tako placo. After that event, vessels from Europe, by taking tho Sound route, will savo over 100 miles of hazardous coast navi? gation, and avoid tho torrors of Squam Beach and Burnegat. A lotter fr?m a Well-informed aud pro miuout source in Franco, to a gentlomuu in Washington, states that tho harvest fields of France present a good appear? ance, and tbat the country outside of Paris is rapidly recovering from the ravages of war. The naval academy fire nt Annapolis on Sunday morning was not so desirae* tive as at first reported. By tho ener? getic efforts of tho cadets the moin building wus saved, and tho sum .of ?3,000 will more than oovor thc entire loss. Tho Nutional Insurance Convention, j in session nt Now York, bas resolved ! that no portion of the taxes levied upon ! premiums in one Stato-pbould be charged ! to or imposed upon the policy holders residing in another Stato. Coroner Taft hold an inquest Sundoy morning, on Atlantio wharf, Charleston, i over tho body of a oolored.child named I Rebecca Wilson, who died suddenly on tho preceding night. Tho jury, found that tho death was ?aused by exposure and neglect. Tho Camden Journal, under tho bend? ing "a general crash imminent," pub ? lishes a long list of tho misdoings and j shortcomings, ?fcc, fcc, of the sovernl j officials nf Kershaw County. Tho cata? logue is sickening. Tho last lotter of Biabop Andrew?, of tho Methodist Church, was a loving re? proof to his brethren for "levity in the pulpit." Ft?tE AT WuiTPiTTAiaj.-Sunday m or ti? ing lout, tho Btoro ?if J. Stern & Co., located ab vWhitehall, on tho Savaunnh and Charl eaton Railroad, with its con? tents, Was totally destroyed. The con? flagrution was the work of "an incendia? ry, without question. The occupants did not retire until after % A. M. Sun-1 day morning, and at that hour all was safe. The loss on tho store and con? tents is not far from 810,000, which, we learn*was insured. There was a fire on Tuesday night last at tho store of Messrs. Bourke & 'Pilton. Georgetown. Datango of stock and building slight, and covered by insur? ance; but about 81,000 in greenbacks, contained in a tin box, was so burnt by the beating of the box as to render it almost, if not entirely, impossible to distinguish the denomination of some of the bills, while others aro entirely de? stroyed. Tba fire is supposed to have been the result of accident. STRANGE MAIL.-Tho Wheeling Intclli gmcer was shown nt tho post ellice, ou Wednesday last, a mail-box of bees, that wore ou their way from Illinois to Chris? tian shu rg, Vu. They wcro of some rare species, and seemed to bo doing well, not a dead ouo being visible. A short time ago a "horned toad" passed through the office, bailing from San Francisco and bound fo** Washington, und a lizard ?ls?i lately performed tho same journey. Tho largest shark of the seasou was captured off Atlantic wharf, Charleston, Saturday afternoon, about 3 o'clock. Ho measured eleven feet two inches. Upou au anatomical investigation, tho vora? cious monster was found to co?tait) several lurgc king crabs, numerous pieces of bone and a mass of dark hair, pronounced to bu that of a human being. SPANISH GUN-BOATS -Five of these boats, we leam from the Beaufort Rc publican, ' built expressly for tho Cuban war, aro expected shortly to coal at Beau? fort. A ship is now on the way from the North with a cargo for this special pur? pose, and will bo landed at Battery Point wharf, from wheoco it will bo taken by this mosquito ileet. Last year they coaled in Charleston. OBITUARY. Wini, ut Spartanburg, 8. 0., on Frirtav, May 20, 1871. MISS C AHO LINK BRYCE, daughter of D.
