Cy|LUj?tB??rsTc. Tuesiay Horning, August 8. 1871. Our colored fellow-citizens will be deeply grieved to bear Mle latest newe from borne, kindly furnished by the Now, York* Tribuno. Their higbly-rcsp?cted and vonorated countryman, King Archo bong, of Oulabnr, is exceedingly ill and Iiot expected to long ?urvive. The cause of his sickness is attributed to Vpndoriic iuflaenoes, invo'ked by Prince Adam Arobebong's wifo, the King's sis? ter-in-law, and a lively dispute, not free from-occasional battles, is now occurring between tho friends and enemies of that estimable lady, in oouaeqSsnco of thc latter desiring to "drink bot blood." Upon the old King's.death-an event not very distant in all probability-a vast n a mb or of the relatives will bo sacrificed, followed by a battle royal for the crown. Oalabar, it is true, is a long-way off, still it ia well enough to romind the natives of. that neighborhood, who are now rul? ing the white people of tho South, bow affairs are progressing at home. :-" -1-" V'? t ?-^ Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton puts her faith jointly in .the fourteenth amend? ment and Ben. Buller. According to her interpretation, the amo?dment nays that women are "citizens," and Ben! says they are-"persons;" and if they ure both citizens and persons, she thinks thom entitled to the ballot. Then she sdmes down on the Republican'party for not arising to tho height"of tho grout'ar? gument of natural- and. ', constitutional I law in its dealings with, the wives and daughters of the country. liven' tho j Domooruts, she thinks, are less averse to woman's rights. "Are not White women aa good as niggerB?" she sneeringly in? quires, And as the Republican party al? lowed: their colored brethren the right of. suffrage, why are their white sisters thus- held back? A nigger, maimed, orippled, and not moro than nine-tenths of aman at most,.is permitted to exe? cute tho freeman's will, while a whole woman is denied! This abe considers a orying shame, which balls for a Bpecdy remedy. We think the poi nts she makes are good, and we commend them for so? lution to the male lights of Rudi o alia m. In just so much as the Frenoh spirit is exceptionally buoyant, so ia the Ger? man implacable.. Notwithstanding their complete success in the late war with France, and the receipt of ah indemnity of five milliards, still they are not happy. The Berlin VoU?keilung asserts that it will not add to - tho. wealth of Germany, since it comes from their own customer?, for whom, they work in time of peace; unt\ that in just so much as France is made poorer in money so much lees em? ployment will that country afford to Germany. Farther, that .the chungo of relative wealth afforded by the five mil? liards transferred from France to Ger? many will raise wages in the latter and lower them- in- the former country, thereby destroying Germany's market. Very interesting, if not very sound, philosophy this, particularly os it reads the world a healthful lesson upon the unprofitableness of wars, even when suc? cessful. But for all that, it is certainly the first time we ever heard anybody se? riously protest against being made rieb, and, in the point of self-denial and dis? satisfaction, think the paper quoted, to? gether with all believers in its dootrine, entitled to the palm. We have often heard of people having too much of a good thing, bat this Is the first practical illustration of it furnished on an exten? sive scale. If all Germany shares the opinion, Kaiser William is certainly the moAt unfortunate monarch that ever wore a crown. SALUDA DENTAL. SOCIETY.-The third meeting of the Saluda Bental Society was held in Greenville, S. C., on tho Isl .and 2d of August,? 1871.

Supposing the two parties to bold their ground in the States put down as Demooratio and Republican, tho Demo? crats would have to draw six votes from the States Bot down aa doubtful to oleot a Pr?sident. To carry Couuectiout would accomplish that. New Jersey, which bas- generally been Democratic, und which tbcro is a probability the De? mocrats . wjll secure- again, would , givo one vote more than wanted. Texas would secure, the election to that party under the circumstances we have ns 8amod. Then there are the two great States of Pennsylvania und Ohio, whioh, to all appearances, will be debatable ground. Of course, either of these, even without Connecticut, New Jersey hud Texas, would give moro votes than necessary to oleot a Democrat. In fact, with either Obio or Pennsylvania the Democrats could afford to losy twu'oi three of tho smaller States set down in the Demooratio column, as. New Hamp? shire, Florida and Arkansas, and still havo votes to spare. But, supposing New York, wbioh is now Democratic throughout, should, through late oventi and mismanagement, be revolutionized and go for the Republican Providentia candidate, there would be still Penneyl vania, Ohio, Conneotiout, New Jersey and Texas to fall book upon. Pennsyl vdu ia and Now Jersey would make uj for the loss of New York. Ohio, Nev Jersey and Conneotiout, even with th loss both of New York and Pennsyl vd nia, would give the eleotion to the De mocrats, if the other States should stam as placed above."

Borne two thoa? saud pngoa of printed testimony haye been taken, arid it illustrates the patri? otic 'energy of the sub'-oommittee Bent into South Carolina that, within a day after their returu to Washington,' and in violation nf tho rules they bad adopted for thoir government, they were able to furnish a ono-sided and partisan account ot tho investigation for tho press, pro? secuting a scene of bloodshed and out? lawry in that region that must satiate tho kcouest and mont rapacious appetite fur horrors. It is this one-sided account which the Washington Chronicla, of Monday, parades in a nummary of what it <!alls "atrocious factH," which, it says, avis established out of tho mouths of more than 2U0 witnesses, besides-what wo believe equally credible-tho lesli-1 mony of "moro than 10,000 of the Hiiro lidless dead, who, from hidden places by the wayside, in swamp and mountain, and from the sleepless usheB of fired homes, ehout their ghostly amen I" Upon analyzing Ibo Chronicle's "atro? cious facts," which wo concede to bc us "atrocious" and incredible aa most of tho purtisau "facts" which appear in tho sumo interest, we find the sum and sub? stance of tho. allegations to bu th ut tho Kn Klux exists in nil thu luto itumrreo ttonary States, and generally diffused; that.the object ia to carry tho South at Hie next Presidential election for tho Demoer.itio nominee; that the intimida? tion of Itepnblican voters, black and white, is one of its priucipal purposes; that this intimidation is Bought by every species of violence and bloodshed; "that noliool-tench era and preachers of the Methodist Church North seem to be tho special abhorrence of these Democratic assassins, and hundreds of school-houses and Methodist churches have been given to the flames, and Christendom will stand aghast when it is made known the scores of schonl-teaohern and Methodist preachers who, by this Democratic igency, within th?se three year.", bnvo been whipped! snot! bung! and, in some instances, it is believed, bumed -nt the stake/" And, to all this, it is added that "in nearly one-half tho States of tbie Union this work of hell is now going on night by. night-every mouth extending the range of its bloody operations, and fearfully multiplying the number of its victims." We submit that such "facts" rs these ure too "atrocious" to b* credited; nt 'atrocious" as their authors, aud, oe the faco of -thom, improbable and pre? posterous. It would, perhaps, be neurei the truth to say that in that half of tlx StateB of tho Union referred to there ic less bloodshed and more security of life and property than there is in the otbet half. There are, doubtless, exceptional acts of violence in some localities in r few Southern Staten, but the oppression, corruption and acts of violence on thc other side which have led to them arc probably quite as numerous and flagrant. Before giving credence to the all?g?e sensational pioturings presented by thc Chronicle, which may bu but a reflex o: the report to be presented by tho ma jority of the oommittee as an election cering document, tho public will demain lo know not only the names, but charac ters of the witnesses, and what it is thoj say. So far as bas transpired, the ru speotable white witnesses generally denj the existence at present of any armec Ku Klux organization. Yet the Chroni de bas the audacity to assort not ooh that it exists, but tbat it is officered bi tbe leading and active Democratic poll tiaians of the South; that it is solely anc immediately in the service of that party that the Democratic party, North ouc South, are equal sharers in the responsi bility, whereupon it asks: "Is a part> worthy of life io this land which seek* supremacy through snob hell-born mea Bures?" Whioh inquiry shows the ani mus of the whole thing-to deprive th? Democratic party of politioal existence as if there could be auoh-a thing as th? toleration of only one political party ii the country; and, willi inch on objoct it may only bo wondered-such is th irrational party spirit of the day-tba the "facts" reported by the committci arc not more exaggerated, bloody nm "atrocious" than they are. There is oei tainly a no worse Ku Klux spirit any where in the South than the Chronicl displays in behalf of the majority of th committee.-Baltimore Sun. DISHONEST TKIAI? JUSTICES.-Th Orangoburg News calls upon tho Gram Jury, at the rseit Court of General See stone, to examine carefully the docke books of tho Trial Justices of tho Ooun ty. It says: Some of them have held thoir posi tiona for nearly (wo years, aud not wi th standing their courts being alway crowded with criminal oases,.not on dollar bas tho County received fron them. But, on the other hand, thei acoounts against the Stato are presente frequoutly. The system is rotten to it very coro, and wo demand that it bo es amined into.

He came in military state, after the fashion of a South American ruler, supported by two generals, who aro called secretaries in. contempt of law, and a tribo of obsequi? ous followers, who havo boen long wait? ing for something to turn np. The me? lancholy event of this visit-of which drawing tho full pay wns tho silver lining -was the decapitation of poor PleaBau ton and the blow at thc military ring. All tho previous accountB and assurances frcm tho seashore capital bad authorized the belief that Boutwell would bo cor uerod and expelled by tho combination which governs tho President. And it s kuown that "his Excellency" carno, hero in that spirit. But tlio startling figures produced by the Secretary, showing a loss of ?8,000, 000 of revenue, and u reversal of former d?cisions and practices in tho internal oveuuo ollico, which might well excito listrust, alarmed tho Cabinet, produced a re ootiou, conquered tho Prenideut und Moored Pleasantnu. ile is uow in a con? dition to receive a forcigu mission, limier tho rules which buvu governed thu diplo? matic appointments of tho Administra? tion, and thus do honor to tho civil service abroad, after having failed at homo.

Tho moat singular feature of tho business is that the rep? tiles will not Btay in tho couutry, where tbey properly belong, but aro forcing themselves into town and town society. On last Friday night a colored man, named Jim White, who is o m ployed as a servant in the house of Mr. V. Richards, on the upper portion of Broad street, was snake bitten.

By way of conciliating the Irish, the Prince of Wales has gono to Dublin, and has condescended to attend a oattle j show, and to express himself pleased with the character of the stock displayed.
