Gfatrier-Journal considers it very "signi
fioant that the Republicans ore bringing
all their gana to bear ou what they are
pleased to stylo 'the now departure.'
Th? New York Tribune, the leader of the
Republican press, employs a correspond?
ent. at s hau Jeomo salary, to interview
every oonBpioaous hot-head in the South,
that nia insana babbling may be tnrned
to account, and every dilly utterance of
obscura and uoiofiuential publications
that are hanging to the. skirts of the
Demnoratio party ia copied by Repobli
oan journals and magnified into an ex
pression of public opinion. Everything
that'can bo tortured into a semblanoo of
opposition to the Constitutional amend?
ments ia heralded in capitals in Republi?
cen newspapers and doon monts, and not
one word ia loat upon their gullible isad?
ora." Tho facts abo YO stated admonish
os of the importance of observing a dis?
creet propriety in all of oar utterances,
if we wish well to oar allies at the North
and to ourselves-. "With proper manage?
ment on the part of tho Democratic
party, and a wise reticence on the part of
those Southern journals and politicians
Shat are naturally in sympathy with it,
there will be hardly tho ghost of a
. chanco for tho Radical' conspirators nt

It seems that the cotton interests <
Brazil are on the dooli no. While tl
exports of this ?tapl? from Rio Janeta
in 1868, amounted to 113.105 bales, th<
were, in 1809, only 45,005 balea-i
enormous falling off-which waa forth
reduced in 1870, when the exports fro
that port were, only 17,910 (Braziliai
bales. The exports ol cotton from Sai
tbs dariDg last year Were 248.727 arr
ba?,'equal to about 18,280 bales of 41
poonda, which, added to the 17,910 bul
from Rio, makes a total export of cottc

BrnUTKD GERMANG IRLS.-A charming
way to ring/out aw old ?aahiou and ring
io a new was that adopted by ; ?orno
young ladies of Berli D with roferenco to
the obigQ?D. TU? national apilit now at
white, heat in Germany is, if anything,
more ardent among the women than tho
men, as iudeed i' a?*ays has boon and
will bo the world over. So tho fuir pa?
triots resolve to reflect more of tho Ger?
man nationality in their dresa aud aban?
don and hoocofortb, ignore Freuoh
fashions, but moro especially tho really
odious obiguou. Aooordiugly the sixty
young ladies, daughters of the wealthiest
citizens, who were selected to welcome
tho returning army at the Bradenburg
Gato, had a meeting in whiob tho ques?
tion of their attire was settled. It waa
that of Margar ot in Kan 1 boob's sketch of
hor first meeting -vi th Faust, whiob bas
been thoroughly identified with tho Ger?
man maiden: in all art und especially
familiarized of late by the "Marguerites"
of tho Btu ge. Two plaits of their own
hair bunging down the buck wus to be
iudispeuBuble, aud they were pledged
mutually and to the municipal authori?
ties en no account to uso false huir.
These sixty wealthy young ladies otight
certainly to be more than a match for
ono Empress, and she nor so much of an
Empress as she was, and they will re?
ceive the congratulations of tho entire
world if they carry tho day against false
hair.
A cabio despatch has already men?
tioned the discovery and frustration ot a
plot to kill the Pope, oonoootod by men
connected with the International Society
of Paria, London and Florence. A let?
ter from London, of June 20, gives fur
i ther details of this contemplated atro?
city. The Pope waa to have boon killed
on tho 19th of that month, as be MOB
proceeding along ono of the corridors of
.the Vatican to celebrate mass in the
Sistine Chapel. Attention was first
drawn to tho plot through a wager laid
against tho duration of tho Pope's life,
aud visits of numerous suspicions charac?
ters to' the Vatican, on the pretext of
seeing membors of the household. A
number of-the Communie ts aro believed
to have arrived in Borne. Foreigners'.of
a low class have exchanged an extraordi?
nary number of 100-frano French gold
pieces. Th OHO desiring the- Pope's lifo
assert bim to be the sole remaining rep?
resentative and the only exponent of
legitimate authority oh the earth.- With
bis removal, they think that political
chaos will ensue.
A COLORED PRIEST IN TRINITY CHURCH.
Tho "new departure" was realized nud
exemplified at Trinity, for the congrega?

ly robes and assisting the surpliced band
around tho altar. Tho service pro?
gressed, still the dark-hued man conti?
nued, and af tor'the commandments had
been responded to, even to tho last,
which is a literal rendering of the great
compendium of the second half of the
decalogue, tho Rev. J. B. Love, a deacon
of the diocese of Florida, ascended the
steps and stood before the sacred desk.
He is here to find aid for bis missionary
work among the colored race ia bis own

COLOMBIA FEMALE COLLEGE.- The
cunniug rumor that this institution.is to
be sold in September, ia without autho?
rity, and we opine, without a good mo?
tive. We bad hoped to hear, ero this,
of something definite on the part of the
Trastees, who were empowered at the
last Conference to open, if practicable,
tho institution for education as soon
after the expiration of tbe present lease
au might be found practicable. Those
who have the matter in band will not,
we hope, suffer the rumoring and ma
nconvering of auy person outside or
inside, who pretend to be friendly to the
opening of the college, to baflto them in
the prompt and prudent execution of tho
trust placed in their bands.

TUE JULY COURT.-Owing to our Jury
Commissioner having not been con?
firmed by tho Senate, the juries drawn
are illegal. No case can, in consequence,
bo tried at tho court to be held next
week in which a jury is necessary. None
summoned as grand or petit jurors need
attend. Nor need any party or witness
in any criminal case come to the eourt.
The foregoing may bo relied on as au?
thoritative. If tho Governor does not
convene the Senate in extra session, wo
can have no juries until March term,

_ OBITUARY!
Tho death of DU. WM. REYNOLDS, which
occurred on tho 28th nit., has caused a vuid
in thia community thal by many will be long
and sensibly felt. No one baa cvor passed
away from among us whoso prosenco was
more familiar to all classes of our people;
and who, if not universally, waa, at least,
very generally respected. None contd deny
him tho possession of ninnyJiterliug qualities
of mind and lionet! which .could uot but se?
cure esteem-qualities not bo common aa to
escape observation, nor of each little practi?
cal worth au to fail to commend lum, in public
and in privat e, to a high degreo of regard, if
uot of admiration. His character was alto
gather a strong ono, and its chief elements
were an utter absence of duplicity, an usually
correct conception and maintenance oft
honorablo principles, and a loathing abhor?
rence of everything low, tricky, sordid or
avaricious. lt waa such constituents ns
theso, associated wilb a constitutionally
warm and excitablo temperament, which im?
pulsively led him indignantly to rebuko any
exhibition of meanness tuite faco, and by tho
pungcuoy of bia strictures to incur, at times,
moro or leas disploasuro. Rut tho trait which
waa auflicient to redeem tho faults and in
?rmitiea of disposition, from which bo may
not havo been exempt, w as the largeness of
his heart-his expansivo and self-sacrificing
benevqlenco-causing bia doora to ho thrown
wide open, bia tabla to bo aproad, aud bia
means, even beyond bia ability, to bo dis?
pensed, not only for the impoverished of bia
owu circle of acquaintauco or respectability,
but for any and every poor or ohs mr? ?tranger
iu need of assis tuneo and sin lt or, who might
casually havo como under his observation.
In tho domestic affections, none excelled
him In fidelity, tenderness and love. Aa a
friend, he had no eupoiiur, in point of the
firmness and constancy of his attachment.
Aa a citizeu of Columbia, ho was ever reidy,
aa far as was in his power, to aid in tho pro?
motion of bor welfare. And as a South Caro?
linian, by adoption, bo was truo to the State
in her prosperity and continued, until death,
an unalterable and sympathizing adherent to
her in tho days -of her adversity. But the
crowning glory of hia life waa bia steadfast
and aincere, though unostentatious profession
of tho gospel of Christ, and bia love for tho
church of which he bad boen for aoveral years
a worthy communicant, iu tho anrvice of
whioh ho long bore a conspicuous and useful
part aa a vost ry man, and a dolegatotoher an?
nual conventions, and of whose "Heavenly
ways and norcot communion," and time-honor?
ed principles and usages, ho could brook no
change. Iiis last days woro attended with

About tho clono sf tho yoar 1828, he arriyed iu

At tho latter place ho resumed bia studies in

ated at tho Medical University of Pennsylva?

hie profession roost suocoasfully at Camden,
and secured a largo sharo of tho confidence of
tho citizens of Kershaw. Abont thia time ho
visited Europo with his family, ami while in
his nativo laud he studied and made himself
maator of tho principles of the science of den?

his subsequent life woro dovotod. Ho remov?

THE C ELK n RATION OF THE FOURTH.
Tho, Fourth of Joly was d^uly^leb rated,
on Tuesday, by all dunnes of citizen*. At
4 o'clock, the city 1 >e 1 tj'-roojg out} ?nd
roused the slumbering ^populace; Jn a
short time, the popping of ?e-craokera
and banging of fire-arms, announced
that young Columbia was wide-awake,
and disposed to mako the most of their
mid-summer holiday. About 6 o'clock,
the different colored companies appear?

About ll o'clock, np immense assem?
blage-principally colorad-congregated
around a stand, wbicb baa been erected
iu Sidney Park, whore, after prayer by
Rev. Addison Richards, (oolored,) the
Declaration of Independence was read
by County Commissioner John H. Bry?
ant, (colored.) Then followed an elo?
quent address, by Attorney-General
Coamberlain-which exhibited great
dopth of thought and careful study of
his subject. Senator Scott, of Pennsyl?
vania, (of tho Kn Klux Committee,)
gave the colored people some excellent
advice; telling them, among other things,
that tho right of suffrage which had
been bestowed on them, was merely ac
experiment, aud it might be taken from
them, if not properly used. Representa?
tive Stoveuson, of Ohio, (of the same
committee,) delivered nu address on the
spread-eagle order. Senator Sawyer
and Bepreseutalivu Elliott followed;
which wound up the proceedings.
Thompson's baud furnished the neces?
sary music. A rnin storm disturbed the
proceedings, but tho listeners protected
themselves ns well os possible, and stuck
it, out. A number of booths and tablee
were scattered about the enclosure, from
which pies, lemonade, ice cream and
lager were dispensed.
Barbecues at Frost's Mill, the Wulkei
house and tho race course; pic nics al
Hampton's and other suburban, locali?
ties, with tho openiag of Seeger't

tho whites.

base ball, between the "White Stook
ings," from the garrison stationed a
Newberry, and the "Iudepondents," o
the garrison at Columbia. Parties con
versant with this Northern pastime, Btati
that there was aome excellent playing.
The great feature of the day, however
for the colored folks, was tho "lavis!

immense, whilo the maskers were lev
and fur-very far-between. They movec
through the principal streets singly ant
in twos-an d'threes. -'*..>.-- .

NEW BOOKS, OF LOCAL INTEBEST. -Wa,
learn that Prof. LaBorde proposes, to : .
publish a Recom? edition of the HISTOBT.
OF THE SOUTH GAROMNA COKLEOB. Oar, *
readers are aware of tbe interest with
which ibo first edition was received. - .'
This edition closed with the year 1857:'
The second will bring the history of tho -
college down to December, 1BG5? when
the Act was passed establishing tbe.ani*
varsity. We learn tbat the new edition
will hnve increased interest imparted to
it, not only because it will constitute a
complote history of the college, but for
tbo further reason that it will contain
several new sketches and additions *
to the sketches of those Presidents
and Professors who havo died since the
appearance of the work. It will be em?
bellished by portraits ot the Presidents
of the college. The volume will contain
about 500 pages octavo, and will ba fur?
nished at $3 per oopy. Subscription
lists may be found at the bookstores.
We deem it unnecessary to add anything
to the notice thus given. Prof, -
LaBordo's well-known fitness for the
congenial work he has undertaken, and
the work itself, will sufficiently commend
the enterprise. The friends and gradu?
ates of tho South Carolina. College,
throughout ho State, and the South, will, :
no doubt, be pleased to avail thenvBelvts
of this opportunity to secure a valuable
biok. '.iii Hi
The other volume io which we desire
to refer, and which will be published aa
Boon as a sufficient number of subscrip?
tions have been received, is- Mr. II. C.
Mack's work, entitled: DEAD ISSUES AND
LIVING RESULTS ? SHERMAN'S M AB OH'
THROCOH' SOUTH CABOLTNA. ! Of cours?;
such a work will ba .read with great in?
terest; especially in thia State. A num?
ber of our citizens' have already sob- '
scribed, and Dr. Di H. Trez?vaht, wb.0 ,
has taken., m nob interest in this work, ;
will receive any additional .norries that
may be offered. From the prosp?etus
which we have examin?e], we' conclude';
that Mr. Mack's volume will be a vain- '
able contribution to history.
