CONDUCT ojf THE WAB.-In a^TyVcent'' dumper, '?f 'tt Southern magi?zibia,' Q^q? Beauregard coroniente upon tho s?eeo ?!, Charlea ton and Grant's last Virginia campaign. In regard to the attack of the monitors upon Fort Sumter, he ia evidently of the opinion that it failed chiefly because ii was undertaken in tho day-time, instead of at night: "Wo hud great doubts as to tho im? pending result, ?ud I was always af the unqualified opinion that, if the enemy's iron-clad fleet made a night attack against Fort.Sumter by coming within I sufficiently close range to see the fort, whioh was a large and elevated .object, and yet not be seen from the fort, the latter would certainly bo Bilenoed or de? stroyed in tho courso of a few nights, without serions injury to the monitors, and the channel to Charleston and the harbor would have been opened to them after hnviug removed tho torpedoes placed at their entrauce." Tho failure of Gen. Gillmore to ap? prehend tho true point from which to attack Charleston, is thus commented upon : "Being an engineer by profession and acquainted with Gen. Gillmore, I felt confident, as Goon as be assumed com? mand ot the forces operating against Charleston, that he would turn his at? tention to attacking Fort Sumter, ns he bad dono Fort Pulaski (at the entrance of Savannah Biver) tho year before, in? stead of employing bi? means to the taking of Charleston, which could and ?tiould have been doue at that time by tho way of the Stouo River und James Island. I often remarked to my general officers at that period, thnt the latter island was tho door to Charleston, whereas Morris Island was only the wiu dow to it; aud it was fortunato iudecd for that city and the Confederacy that Gen. Gillmore preferred attempting to enter through the window, instead of tho door." General Beauregard is plainly of the opiuiou that the siege of Petersburg by Grant was a mistake. He says: "What General Lee and myself feared most, was, that Geueral Grant should continue to ro?ale around Riohmoud on the South side of the James and Appo-1 mattes, as he had done on the North side of the former river. It is evjdent that, with our inferiority of numbers at the time (50,000 against 150,000) and paucity of resources, we could not have checked him by placing ourselves in his front without uncovering Petersburg and Richmond, which required very strong garrisons, (more than we could safely spare,) tobe abandoued to them? selves even for a moment. For tho same reason we oould not have threat? ened bis fine of communication with City Point ?r the lower James River, where he could have re-established his base ut any point most suitable to him. * * * By that movemeut of rotation Graut would have effectually destroyed the Weldon and the Danville Railroads, tho only two liucs which continued to furnish Richmond and the army with scanty supplies of provisions and am? munition from Wilmington and the neurly exhausted States of South Caro? lina aud Georgia. We were living then, ns it were, from baud to mouth; and any sorious interruption to those lines of supply would have compelled an immedi? ate ovuouatidn ot Virginia by the Con? federate Government and army fer North Carolina and South Carolina, or for Tennessee and Kentucky, where a new 'theatre of war' might have boen established. But General Graut pre? ferred 'to hammer away all tho year ou that line' (against the fortifications of Petersburg) like an infuriated bull, which, losing sight of his tormentors, rushes madly at the ted flag which is flaunted in Iiis eyes. As General Bos? quet said of the gulluut charge at Bala? klava, 'Cela cst magnifique, mais ce n'est pat in guerre*-'That is magnificent, but it is not according to the art of war.' " FROZEN TO DEATH.-Mr. Jumes N. Taylor, who lives in tue vicinity of Mush Creek, in this County, was found in his mill, tho other morning, so badly frozen as to prevent all efforts tunde for his re? covery from proving successful. It ap? pears that hu had boen on a visit in tho neighborhood, und on returning townrd his home in the evening, he concluded to stop nt tho mill over night rather than risk crossing tho foot log. When found be was lying in a bod of cottou seed, nud was in an insensible condition, death following in a few hours. I Greenville Mountaineej\ Tm; DEATH oi' JONAS BYRD.-We icarn with regret that this staunch color? ed citizen died yesterday; tho principal cause of his death being a severo fall which injured his head. Jonas Byrd took a prominent part in tho Reform canvass of 1870, aud stumped tho State with Judge Carpentor and Geu. Butler. His courageous and consistent conduct at that time won for him the respect of the people.-Charleston News. LaviniaLabiro, of Erie, Pennsylvania, after being poor but honest for three? score years and ten, at the advanced age of three-quarters of a century, endea? vored to escouco herself in the lap of luxury by toying with tho band-writing of a rich old gentleman in tho neighbor? hood, and signing hiB name to a check for $10,000. She took his name in vain, however, and a check has been put to further proceedings of a similar nature. Tho Boston Post says: "By tho im? peachment of Gov. Reed, of Florida, anothor namo is added to tho list of ras? cals." Tho name was added to the list long ago; but it has just gotton to that fix where his Radical friends eau ho longer disguise tho infamy. A skuuk may be buried in rosea; but the odor will creep out after a while. Thu President has pardoned John Scully, connected with tho illicit distilla? tion of whiskey. He is supposed to have done so in the words -"with all thy faults I love thee! ?till." . I?EGI9UA'?lVJS PllOCEKUINOS. J T?rj1h^?A?; TEnR?AnY 22, 1872. w . SENATE. The Senate assembled at 12 M., 0. W. Montgomery, President pro lem., in tho Chair. A. bill to incorporate tho South Caro? lina Agricultural College and Mechanics' Institute- waa referred to the Committee on Education. The following Mere pasuod: Bills to authorize and empower W. C. Garrity, F. W. Towles and IX H. Towles to esta? blish and build a wharf ut Martin's Point, Wndmalaw Island; to renew tho charter of Marion Lodge, No. 2, I. O. O. F. ; to grant, renew and amend tho charter of tho village of Rock Hill, in York County. At 1.40 P. M., tho Senato adjourned until to-morrow, ut 12 M. HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. Tho House met at 12 M., Speaker Moses in the Chair. A message was received from his Ex? cellency the Governor, transmitting thc report of Dr. Otto A. Moses on phos? phates. Tho Governor concludes hit message as follows: "At this late day of thc sosiiion of th? General Assembly, I can say but little more than to call to your notice tho im portauoe of providing some moaus tc insure the collection of the royalty dui the State, und for gunrding this vnluabh interest again deterioration und spolia tion. There has existed a vague impres sion that tho phosphate property of tb? Stute was very large, but it hus only re contly boon developed that the neglectec phosphatic strata, foriniug the beds o many of our streams, are of vast and in creasing iinpottauce to tho welfare o the world. These, if protected, will, ii a short period of time, yield a revenu* almost sufficient to supersede the noces sity of levying a tax on other property The reference, in the communication o Dr. Moses, to tho revenue derived b; Peru from her guano iuterest, will giv you some conception of the value o these deposits. "I earnestly recommend that you wi; take snob action, under the suggestion contained in my lost annual message, a will give adequate protection of luw t those most valuable possessions of th State." Mr. Yocum offered the followiug pn amble and resolutions, which were lai over: Whereas it is believed that the pm chasers of the Columbia Canal have ni glected, in important particulars, t fullill their contract, according to the ii tent and meuuing of au Act approve tho 21st day of September, A. D. 18C! authorizing the sale of the Columbi Canal; therefore, be it Resolved, by the House of Represent) tives of the State of South Carolina, tl Senate concurring, That a commissio of ?vo persons on the part of the Hous and-on the part of the Senate I (appointed to investigate the same. Resolved, That said committee shn j have power to send for persons au papers, examine witnesses, and to ec ploy such experts or engineering assis ance as to them shall seem prope They shall inspect personally and e amine minutely into the stability ai sufficiency of tho work performed apt thu canal, and if the same shall be foul to bo in all particulars according to co tract, and to conform in all respects the Act authorizing the stile of sa cana!, thoy shall approve tho same, at the said contract shall stand con linne But if it shall be found that tho wo has been performed iii an insufficie manner, and shull in anywise fall she of the conditions of the sale und t provisions of said Act, then und in tb CHAO tho Mt id committee shall emulen the said work, and the said sale shall declared null nnd void, aud the said C luinbia Canal shall forthwith revert I and be taken possession of, by t State. Mr. Wilkes introduced a bill to i erenso tho official bonds of the Clerk tho Court of Common Pleas and Ger ral Sessions, and Jutlge of Probate : Anderson County. Messrs. Whipper, Frost and Jot wero appointed as a committee of ct terence to adjust the differences on bill relating to the payment of the p indebtedness of Darlington County. Mr. Cousait introduced a bill to i thorizo tho County Commissioners Lancaster County to issue bonds to I amount of 818,000, for the relief of I County. A resolution from tho Senate, lo jouru sine die on tho 20th instant, \ postponed uutii thc 27th instant. A motion to reconsider tho v whereby a substitute for a bill to mi appropriations and raiso supplies for fiscal year commencing November 1871, was laid on tho tablo, was doha up to '? o'clock P. M., when a resolut of Mr. Smart, to adjourn in commet ration of tho birth-ting of Gem Washington, was adopted, und House adjourned :.t 3 P. M., until morrow. TUB GUISA? TICUUOKKE TAMC London letter writer says: "Yesterday. February 2, Sir J Duke Coleridge, opening the case the plaintiff, hail talked two weeks four days.

Califo ' tige 12S J ea: r, TUE INTENSE GOLD WEST.-? despatch from Sioux Git;, February 19, Bays: One of the most distressing incidente of tho terrible storms that have swept over this region during tho present win? ter is connected with tho discovery of the remains of Dr. Hall, of Osoeola, Iowa. He was lost in a terrible storm three weeks since, and though every possible oxertion was made to discover his body, all efforts were vain until some four days ago, whon a dog belonging to tho family brought in a portion of one of his legs. The friends of the deoeased afterwards followed the dog and found the mutilated body of the unfortunate man only a half mile from his house. Later reports from Dakota confirm thc statements in regard to the depth of snow, and terrible severity of tho wea? ther during December and January. John W. Smith's wagon train left Whet ctoue Agoncy, December ll, for Spotted Tail's new roBorvation on White Earth Uiver, only 200 miles distant, and was six week?; making tho trip. They en? countered vast snow drifts, many of them 100 feet deep, cxtendiog a great distance, through which it wac necessary to effect a passage by shoveling. The weather was so intensely cold that every watch stopped and every mao connected with the train was frozeu, some of them severely. Tho suffering was intense, but no lives lost. DESTRUCTION OF THE SOUTH ERN ME? THODIST DOOK CONCERN.-A destructive tiru broke out ii the building of the Southern Methodist book couceru, in Nashville, about 1 o'clock, last Thursday morning. We extract tho following account from the Union and American: "Tho fire commenced in tho bindery, and us tho house .was closed since ? o'clock, yesterday evening, its origin ia no*, known. This was tho iudividual pro? perty of John Lockeu, of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and was uniusured, though the building belonged to tho company. Tho loss in machinery-, etc., j to this department, auiouDts to over ?20,000. There had beeu an insu rauca ou this until tho present year. Uuder I the bindery were the press rooms und stereotyping department of tho com? pany, the contents of which, together with somo small nccwuut books, and the library of Dr. T. O. Sommers, contain? ing sum? of the most valnublo volumes in tho South, were destroyed. Tho fire was checked when it reached the rear of the book house, ou which there is an in? surance of $10,000. Printing material, tho composing room, etc., with ma? chinery and books, were burued. In? cluding the above amouut ou the build? ing, uuinjured, tho compauy bad ?50,000 insurance ou the stock und buildings destroyed. This amouut will not ap? proximate the value of the buildings and stock." A NORTH CAROLINA GOURMAND.-The Elouuoko ?Tetes, of February 17, is re? sponsible for the following: .'A most marvelous feat of eating, and one that seems altnodt incredible, but which is vouched for by a dozeu wit? nesses, occurred in this pluce a few nights since. Ouo Tom Weaver, colored, a rather small mau, aud seemingly of ordinary eating capacities, was induced to eat u good 'square meal' at Noah Hicks , some other pur ty agreeing to pay seventy-five cents for as much as ho could out. The following amount of eatables were actually devoured by bim, and, upon a wager, will bc eaten again at auy time-some hour and a half being occupied iu tho arduous duty : 2-i pound? of hum, 2 pounds of baussugo, 1 pouud roast meat, '?}.? dozen eggs, 1 pound of butter, 51 biscuits, 21 cups of coffee, 1 quart of oysters; aud taking six drinks of whiskey aud one quart of cider in the meantime, and immediately afterwards olding au ordinary snack, obtained else where. We should like for somebody to boat this, if they can." A PRESENT TO TUE CZAR.-Capt. Jehu Cowden has made a gift to tho Emperor of Russia of tho plans, specifications and drawings used in the construction of the celebrated Confederate rams Arkan? sas, Virginia and TouDessec. Thoy were taken from tho archives of tho Confede? rate Government, and presented to Ad? miral Poisset iu trust for his imperial master. Tho theory developed in the papers reforred to makes the uso between the iron plates of cotton, or home other clastic substance, imperativo in tho Imikliug of this kiud of craft. It is claimed that shut from guns of tho heaviest culibre onuuut take effect under such circumstances. In addition to this, the vessels aro supposed to be so shaped that they cannot he struck at right angles. An exchange indulges iu the following sensiblo reflections regarding ladies' head-dresses at the theatre: "If aman were to tuko his seat at auy place of pub? lic gathering or amusement and keep his hat on ho would bu hissed, or hustled out, or handed to tho police. Dut women, night after night, go with the most preposterous pilo of rigging on top of their heads, just as high as mon's hats, and keep tho unhappy mon behind dodging tho uevorqniet pile, and never giving ono moment's clear view of tho stage or tho performers. Perhaps it would bo well to revive the old Puritauio text: 'Top knot, como down.* " llenrj Dorry Lowrey and his guug of outlaws made a raid upon the town of Lumbortou, N.

DIED FROM HEH INJURIES.-Mrs. Sech rest, who was so badly burned on tho morning ot tho -4th iust., died ou Sunday afteruoou last from tho injuries she sustained.- Yorke Hie Enquirer, Some jocoso Philadelphiaus drenched a negro with kerosene aud set tiru to him just to seo how he would wriggle aud squirm. The coronet said the job was well done. THE-SIZE OF LOKBON.-According to the lust census, Loudon - hos a popula? tion of 3,883,092. This is more than tbe combined population of New York, Philadelphia, Brooklyn, St. Louis, Chi? cago, Baltimore, Cincinnati, Boston, New Orleans, Ban Francisco, Buffalo and Alleghany City, Pa. To lodge this vast multitude, 777,000 dwellings are required, and the people consume annu? ally about 4,480,000 barrels of flour, 420,000 bullocks, 2,975,000 Bheep, 49, 000 calves, 61,250 hogs, and one market alone eupplies annually 7,043.750 head of game. This, together with 5,200,000 salmon, beside other fish and fleib, is washed down by 75,600,000 gallons of ale and porter, 3,500,000 gallons of spirits, and 113,750 pipes 'of wine; 1 22,750 oows are required to supply the daily consumption of milk. The streets of the metropolis are about 2,900 in number, and if put together would ex? tend about 4,000 miles. They aro light? ed by 630,000 lamps, consuming, on an avorage, every twenty-four boura, 22, 270,000 oubic feet of gas. The water! system supplies 77,670,824 gallons daily, while the sewer system carries off IC, 629,770 oubic feet of refuBe matter. . A fleet of 1,800 sails is employed, irre? spective of railroads, in bringing annu? ally 5,250,000 tons of coal. Bituminous I coal is exclusively used, aud the smoke arising from this immense, quantity is said to bo so dense that it can bo seen thirty-five milos from tho city. To \ clothe the inhabitants requires 4,1G0 tailors, 54.400 boot and shoemakers, and nearly 70.0U0 dressmakers and milliners. Berlin, accordiug to the recent census, has a population of S28.013; Paris, in 1867, thc year of thu Exposition Uni? verselle, 1,889,462, and Constantinople, iu 1864, 1,075,000. We are told that "John Byan has been sentenced, in New York, to Sing Sing for twenty years, for highway robbery. This poor devil robs somebody of a few dollars and is sent to tho penitentiary for twenty years. At the same time there are men iu the custom house of thc same city who are known to have robbed the people of millions of dollars, yet they can't even bo gotten into the cala? boose, even for twenty minutes. A fire occurred at Savannah on Satur? day night, resulting in $20,000 loss. Tho building in which tho fire originated belonged to Mr. J. T. Blacklock, of Charleston, and was occupied by A. Schlesscyer, wholesale grocer aud com? mission merchant. The building and stock were seriously damaged. Both were insured. Tho Charlotte Democrat is informed by a geutlumatr from Union County that on Friday, the 9th inst., u negro mau did most horribly aud brutally violate the persou of a young lady living in said Couuty. After tho wretch had commit? ted his hellish purpose he fled, but was captured tho next dav and lodged in jail. There is a Shanghai rooster at Trinity College, N.
