C )LUMBIA. S. C. Sunday Horning, Octobor?8 1871. Q,ueeti Victoria. Mr. Disraeli bas succeeded in creating a greater sensation than he did either by the publication of ??Vivian Grey" or .?Ltothair," or by introducing a refotm bill when be was at tbe head of a Con? servative Ministry. This has been done by a late speech, in whiah ho said that the Queen has become "morally nod physically incapacitated" for the per? formance of her public duties. The term ?'morally" is, of oonrse, not to be understood in its popular sense, as re? flecting in any way upon the persoual character or private virtues of the Qneon. who is confessedly above reproach or suspicion in all the relations of sooial and domestio life, but upon ber fitness for the official duties of a sovereign. Tho subjeob of tho Queeu's health bad' been already much discussed io the pub? lic journals, but no public expression had been made by auy one occupying tho conspicuous position held by Mr. Disraeli, or wielding anything compara? ble to his vast influences upon tho publia mind, and the effect has been startling, if we may credit the telegraphic ao counts. The excitement recalls the me? mory of that which prevailed in 178S, on oooasion of tbe first serious uttaok of the mental malady of King George the Third, when Fox-who ocoupied tho po? sition now held by Disraeli, thongh be? longing to the opposite party-startled Parliament by the memorable declara? tion that 4,Hia Boyal Highness, the Prince of Wales, has as clear, as express a right to exercise the .power of aove-! reignty, during the continuance of the illness and incapacity with which it bas pleased God to nilli ot his Majesty,, aa in tho case of -his Majesty's having under? gone a natural demise." Whereupon Pitt,- then oconpying the place now h sid by Gladstone-the position of partiet being reversed-slapped his thigh, one said to the member flitting next to him '?I'll unwhig the gentleman for the rest of his life." Whether Mr. GI ada tom will undertake to uh tory Mr. Disraeli, or whether he would gain advantage b^ ticing so, if he could, we are unable tc say. There is an element in the presen case which hopes to give the matter i very different turn from that which i took either io 1788, or iu 1810, whoa tbi King's malady became permanent. Tbi elemeut is the ??republican" faction-, le< by Bradlaugh and Beale, which -avowed!; hopes to revolutionize the British Go vernment and put an end to the mon archy on the termination of Queen Vic torin's reign. American newspaper have had much to soy about this faction but we buve no idea that it is more thai a faction, or that the people of Euglaut are going to try the experiment of a re public, with tho melancholy spectacle a mis government in the United States be fore their eyes. If they do, they wil deserve the punishment inflicted upo the ancient Israelites, when, unsatisfied with their "Judges," they clamored fo a king. The New York Evening Post deriving its information from sourot not stated ogives, in tbe following arti ole, a more minute account than wo bav seen elsewhere, of the nature of th '?moral" incapacity to which Mr. Dian eli is supposed to have alluded: ''QUEEN VICTORIA'S HALLUCINATION. - Whatever nvty be the truth ia regard t the report that Queen Victoria intend to abdicate the throne of England, it i known that she hus been laboring fe some years past under at least one pirns of mental infirmity. She has a fire conviction that Prinoe Albert, is nlwat present with her, and that she can hoi communion with him. Her privai roomo are arranged as they wer? whe be was alive. His chair ia placed oppc site to her own in the library, and th books which he delighted to read to ht are arranged lovingly, iu order, upo the table. In some of'ber moods, sh will converse with him for an hour togi tber, conducting her own share of til conversation aloud and with the vigc and interests ' of old times. He ba taught her, by bis example, the sucoei of his business enterprises-enpeciull by his management of tbe Duchy i Oornwall-to superintend as munn < possible all her private affairs herself; I reduce all unnecessary expenditure and to forbid extgavaganoe. Hence, tl greatest simplicity is observed at tl; Queen's table, and sho imagines that b< husband looks on, well pleased, i times, when she is more than ordinaril impressed with a sense of his presenoi the poor, fond woman will order a kui and fork to be placed on the din ne table for him, and causo the atteudao to place every course before ihn eiopl obair as if the master still ocoupied i Every morning, a pair of boots a deaned and set down against the dot of the ehambor wbioh be ouoe ocoupiei and at breakfast, when in Scotland, si will often sit a long time in silence, wai iug for the Pri6.ce. . "Tbe Queen's strong belief in tl communion of the living with the spiri of the dead she received, no doubt, fro Prince Albert himself, who wus a aort theosophist--a .something between J cob Behmon, the mystic, und J. I Fichte, the philosopher of transcender aliam. Whatever may be thought of it us a theory of philosophical or religious belief by sober, common-sense people, it is to Victoria a source of great conso? lation, and she often talks with the Prince conoerning the stato of the soul after death. She bas been gradually withdrawing from publie life for some years past, und lives in u world of her own. Her harp and her easel are both neglected, aud she neither sings, plays nor paints, except ut rare intervals, when she will sweep her harp-strings for a few moments in memory of some sweet Ger? man air tbat her husband loved to sing or to hear sung. ". City Affairs. Our readers will observe tbat tbe ques? tions raised as to tbe now oily hall and market, and the accrut issue of new city bonds, are still .attracting publio atten? tion. In the meantime, we presume that the committee of tho Board of Trado ure pursuing their investigations. There is much to be brought to light. It is kuown that gross irregularities bavo occurred, aud it is believed that swin? dling has been perpetrated, and th ut the interests of the city bavo been shame? fully sacrificed. It appears that the City Council are awaiting the arrival of .Mr. Wigg, one of the Aldermen, to hold a special meeting. Tho public aro very patiently waiting for the explanations 'that have been promised. "Our just censure shall attend the true event." Correspondence. MAYOR'S ' OFFICK, COLUMBIA, October 7, 1871. To James JJ. Trudewell, Esq., City Altor ney- . . BIB: A "Tax-Payer" has submitted in the PIIONEX, of this morning, uu in? quiry to me as to the right of Alderman Wigg, who was elected to represent Ward No. 2 in the City Council, but who has removed from that ward, and "ts living beyond Ute corporate limits of the oily," longer to Bib in Council. I ru? ler you to the card of "Tux-Payer," aud request to be furnished with your answer to the question. Very respectfully, yours, JOHN ALh.Xa.NDER, Muyor. OFFICE OF CITY ATTOUNET, COLUMBIA, October 7, 1871. To Hoit. John Alexander, Mayor., SIB: I have examined the card of a "Tax-Payer," to which your note refers, and the answer to the inquiry it makes is very obvious on the statement of fact made by your interrogator. If Alder? man Wigg has removed beyond the cor? porate limits of Columbia, he baa there? by forfeited hi? right to sit at your board; for no one but a corporator is qualified to occupy a place there. If, however, Judge Wigg has only removed from the ward which he was chosen to represent to another, ho has not, by I such removal, vacated his seat as au Alderman. I am not aware that the question has been judicially settled, but I know that it hus boen fbng since adjudged by both the Town aud City Council of Columbia, that a change ot' residence of a Warden or Alderman from his own ward to another, during bis term, does not affect his right to sit in Council. I tLink that it will be found that "Tux-Payer" is mistakeu in the principal fact, of non-residence within tne eily limits, and that Alderman Wigg'o aol ive and valuable services may be continued to the city. I have the honor to be, your very obedient servant, JAMES D. TRA DE WELL, City Attorney. SOUTHERN SECURITIES IN NEW YORK. The Herald, of the -1th, says: The Southern State bond? were unfa? vorably influenced by a fresh display of weakness in tbe South Carolinas, which tu-.'cbed the lowest figures recorded since their restoration to the call of tho Stock Exchange a few years since on the re sum ptiori of interest payments. It seems that a large amount of the bonds had been hypothecated with tho Tenth National Bank, which culled tho money, and was compelled to sell the hoods on account of the default of thu borrowers of the money. Tho January aud July bonds sold at 4fl-}? uud the April und October bonds at 48 }n. THOSE OUTBAOES.-The grand jury of York County was engaged during nearly the whole two weeks of the recent court iu attempting to ferret out the perpe? trators of the various outrages that were committed last winter in York County. In accordance with the suggestions of Judge Thomas, Major Merrill and A. S. Wallace, who, from their representations to Senator Scott, it was supposed ought to know all about it, wore subpoenaed be? fore the jury to give them whatever in? formation they might be possessed of. Wallace know nothing, and bad to acknowledge it. His blood and thunder stories were made of whole cloth. Major Merrill, we learn, waa able to retail a great deal of hearsay, but very little of Hiiffioient importance to warrant present? ments by the grand jury. As to out rages since the investigating committee visited Yorkville, we hear there was no testimony whatever. This is just about as we expected. One of the chief attraotious on Mon? day last, upon the publio square, WUH a steam ; engine belonging to Mr. C. B. Gilmer, intended to run a portable cot? ton gin. It was manufactured by Mr. R. Tozer, of Columbia, who was in charge of this beautiful specimen of his skilful workmanship. By direction of the owner, the engioo beurs the uamo of "Gen. Hampton." Upon n trial of tho engine, in the presence of a largo crowd of spectators, it rained twenty pounds ol steam in twenty minutes from cold well water. -A nderson Intelligencer. The New City Mall and Markci-A Few Plain Fact? ana Suggestion*. MR. EDITOB: It is generally under? stood that on the return of Alderman Wigg to the city, that City Council will hold a speoial meeting and adopt mea? sures to protect the city in the late nego? tiations of oity bonds made by the Com? mittee on Ways and Means. No doubt this bond matter will be satisfactorily arranged, but very little has beonsaid as to action to bo takeu relativo to continu? ance of oreotion of City Hall nud mar? ket, upou terms of cont mots outored into. What of tbo now murkot? More than four-fiftbB of the bona fide tux payors, by petition to City Council, ou? tored their solemn protest against tho oreotion of a now market. Will it pay as an investment? It is couaodud that by tbe timo o? completion it will have oust 820,000, considering contract price, arobiteot'd fees and interest on thu money; ibero will bo only sixteen stalin, consequently oneil stall would cost SI,250. Tho revenue from sixteen stalin, at SO per mouth, (thu rent in present market, but petitions for reduction have been frequently Bent to Council,) would produce $1,728 per nnuum. Now, de duot from tins tho salary of a now Clerk, or additional salary to present Clerk, iu Buruuco, wear aud tear, Seo., all inclusive at least $700 por an nu m; therefore, the net revenue would be but u fraction over $1,000 per unuum, nud, of course, tho market would pay for itself in just twenty yours I It is said that tbe city is at present paying hf teen per cont, per annum for the usu of money, ami as figures show the murketmight pay au in? terest of tivo por cuDt. per unuum, we have a spectacle of sublime stupidity on the part of u city burrowing money uud loaning it at a loss of tun per cont, por annum. Cau tho haud-ful of ruarkot advocates calculate how long a private individual could stund this? The writer did not sign the protest seut to Council, but hu is opposed to tho erection of this now murkot, uud, iu fact, is opposed to a market huuse iu atiy portion of tho city UH city property. Public markets aro public, nuisances. They ure being abo? lished by tbo authoritias of Northern and Western cities. Why compel a etti zen to travel a mile, or even three blocks, to obtain meats and vegetables, any moro than to compel bim to go to a specified.depot to obtain his sugar aud coffee? It is a restriction that American citizens should not submit to. Abolish tbe present market, do not oreot the uow market, soil the bricks and other materials, then license ono or two "meat and provisiou slot os" in each blook, uud make wise regulations as to the conduct of such business. The ruvenuo derived by the oily from license tax aud tax on personal property, requisite for con? ducting the burin?es of "meat and pro? vision dealer," would exceed by 100 per cent, the revenue derived from any city market house that could bo erected, aud, as a great publio accommodation, oould not be surpassed. We do not be? lieve tho tux-payers intend to quietly submit to this unwise, unoalhd-for aud totally unnecessary outlay of $20,000 of their mouey. Bettor by far uso this mouey in lighting the city with gas, re* pairing streets nud oaring for tho sick and poor properly. Let a public indig? nation meeting bo called, of rich und poor, black uud white, aud bave a "free talk." If nothing else is doue, lut a pe? tition be circuluted for signers favorable to tho total abolition of city market. Will the City Couuoilmon pause aud re? flect? What of the new City H.?ll? It is conceded that nine-tenths of tho tax? payers do favor the ereotion of a City Hall, but do obj ??at (so doos tbe writer) to un outlay of $138.000 to secure ono. It has been asserted that fraud has boon practiced in the award of tho contract at $138.000, und that the building could be erected for $80,000 or $90.000-the truth or falsity of this assertion will soou be ascertained by tbe committee of the Board of Trade. Wo do not bolievo fraud bus been p/ao ticed, but think the high cost arises from tbe extravagant "specifications'' made by tho architect. From oue who hus carefully road tho specifications, we learn that tho con? tractor is required to furnish tho finest and most costly materials throughout, including handsome chandeliers, gua fittings, marble weah-stand?, orin?la, water closets und general plumbing work, US also the entire fitting lip of opera hall, fresco work, &q., Seo. Herein lies the high cost. We dismiss the nhargo of fraud for another reason; our fellow towusmeu and ex-Aldermen, C. Waring und R W. Johnson, made written bids"; uud it cannot be possible that either of tuese gentlemen (both tax-payers) would sacrifice their honor and reputation by engaging with any party or parties in a s?beme to defraud the publio. We throw out tho suggestion, that the fol? lowing clause in the contract he taken advantage of: "Alterations or additions can he made and the cost of same added to. or deduoted from, the con? tract." Now, we ask the Council to "go through" the specifications, strike out the "luxuri?s" referred to, have oost of warne deduoted, aud when the oity is finnncially better off, weean indulge in the "luxuries." This would so materially reduce the Dost aa to satisfy the publio and warrant the erection of the City Hall, even if it ousts $100,000, as the revenue from rental, &c, would pay a good intercut. Tho writer is not a Democrat. He voted for the present Mayor and some :>f the Aldermen, und the conduct of tho oity government, up to the present time, meets his approbation, and, ho believes, that of almost the entire community. COLUMBIA. Tho Southerner suys tho Darlington County Fair was a decided success, and the display of animals and wares excel? lent. Mr. Chattet) G. Conner, of the Soath ern and Atlantio Telegraph Company, died in Charleston on tho 5th. Mr. Con? nor was a native of Maoon, Ga., only I thirty-six years of ago, and his death is regretted by a large oirole of 'friends. Last Sunday afternoon Mr. Joel Deas, aa old and highly respeoted citizen of Wilkinson County, Ga., was foully mur? dered and his body found in tbe woods near Toomsboro. No obie to tbe cause of the bloody deed or the perpetrators bas been obtained. Mr. Wallace Wilson, living eight miles from Hillsboro, N. C., was drowned in a braneb two inches deep und twelve indies wide, last Thursday, 29th nltimo. Ho was taken with a lit, while crossing, and full in faae downward. He was for? ty-five years old.
