COLUMBIA. S. C. Tne.jay Morning, Mareil 12.1872. ' Look on that Flotara anti then OB Thia. A correspondent of the New York Time*,-, the loading Grant organ now in the United States, writing from New Hampshire on the conduct and progress of the canvass there, aaya: "The faot that the Dem?crata have possession of the State Government oaring the carrent year, has also been of great ase to their opponents, who have been able to show that the expenses were inoreasod $17,000 in the first six months, and the session of the last Le? gislators extended seven days, both of which are very seriooB matters with this fingal people." Did snob a statement appear ia any other than an unswerving Republican jonrnal, like the Times, we should be inclined to regard it as a hoax. It mnst be borne in mind that the Republicans ?re exerting the whole strength of their mighty organization to seoare New Hampshire for their party, or rather for Grant. Every means and appliance known to political Btrategy has been brought into play ia their behalf. Their Organization is perfect. Republican olnbs are organized in every precinct, **d the election fever wrought np to raging heat. Speakers, great and small, and from every section of the Union, irosa Wilson, of Massachusetts, to the sometimes Senator from Charleston, of oar own State, have been mastered into Grant's service, and the work is going bravely on. Every error, or mistake, or appearance of anything of the kind, on. tito part of the present Democratic administration, mast, of coarse, be ierro ted oat, and ased to their damage; colored, too, with all the extravagance which partisan zeal begets. This, then, ia the sam and sabstaace of Democratic Binning in New Hampshire, for last year, "their enemies themselves being the judges." They have inoreased the State expenditures $17.000 in six months, and prolonged the session of the Legislature seven days, and these facts, says the correspondent of the Times, give a great advantage to . their opponents. The thing appears supremely ridicu? lous to a progressiva South Carolinian. The prosper?os and wealthy inhabitants of New Hampshire should oome down and take a few lessons from our princely flnanoial ring in the art of expending public moneys. They would hang their diminished heads for shame, when they would placo their little old $17,000 along? side of onr millions, and that ono weeli of extra session by oar three mouths. And Corbin, d- t- Corbin, how droll it . Bast be to any one knowing his connec? tions and career here to hear him, with saintly horror expressed on his Puritanic visage, detailing to the honest people ol New Hampshire the profligate expendi? tures of the corrupt Democracy, whicL sam ap the enormous amount of $17,00C in six months. Oh, that Sol Smith Ru; . aell might see tho sight. His fortune would be made, and we would all groo fat with laughing. "Corbin on the Non Hampshire finances," woaldbein charm' rag antithesis to Sol's school-boy thal boo hooed "Bingen on the Rhine." HOM Corbin must giggle in his sleeves at thc simplicity of his audienoe, when he endi ono of his virtuous harangues. It is tc be hoped that in his efforts to depict Democratic dishonesty to the people o the Granite State, he may become per sanded into the belief that he is honesl himself, and remain ander the delusion if ho will act accordingly when ho re tarns to Sooth Carolina. Bat what mos surprises us in this matter is, that Nov Hampshire, one of tho Now Eaglauc States, tho sent of soience and oracle o wisdom to the Western Hemisphere should have fallen so far in tho rear ot the grand march of civilization tba characterizes tho age, as Mr. Chamber Iain says. Only $17,000 increased ex penses in one year! Oar Northen friends need never prate moro abou "Yankee go-aheudativoness and progress Wo are a moro pre grossi vo people thai they. Look what we havo done, nni though wo must admit that Norther: men have given us this great impetus oi the path of progress, still thoy claim t be identified with our section now, an> they never could mako snob rapid ad Tances with their people "to hum." .Under oar old fogy ways of doin business, it used to cost the State les than $f>00,000 to support ita govern ment a year. Seo how we progresso last year. There was in the spring tax of nine mills on tho dollar, levied o upwards of $183,000,000 of taxable prc perty, assessed at its full valae, profest odly, but really nt more. Thia woul bring in upwards of $1,000,000. Tba ia somo progress itself. Compared t $500,000, it is a geometrical progreseio of un increasing series, with three ami traction for a ratio. Still, it by no mean forma the measure of our advance, J year ago, wo only had a public debt of 87,665,908 08, according io the report of the Comptroller-General. Now, upon the same authority, wo can boast of a borden of $15,851,327.35. The pro? gress, then, in one yoar, is as ?500,000 to $10,000,000, or 1 to 20. To make this progress certain, the Legislature is taking steps to valid?le it, so that there may be no slipping back to old fogy notches. This is necessary, as tho pole of progress is a slippery one. Who does not fool 'proud to be a South Caro? linian? * "Lives thoro a mun with soul so dead. That novur to himself has said Thia is my own, my nativo laud. Of nigger rule aud Ku Klux Klan?" Pursue lite ringi Our Municipal KIrclion. The Union, yesterday, gave us a very fair-sonndiog article npon the character and qualifications of the men who should be elected to control our city affairs for the next term. Says that jonrnal: "When a candidate presents himself for one ot these positions, let these questions first be settled: Is be competent to ma? nage his own affaira successfully? Is he intelligent, capable and honest?" That is all very good, and for once, mirabile diclu, the Union and the PHOE? NIX may be said to be of ono mind, to Borne extent. Bot the question is, how is this object tobe attained? There ia where the Union makes his mistake. J How ere honest, intelligent and capable ' men most likely to be scoured, and the j city government administered alike in tho interests of the property-holders and the laboring olasses? It will not) best be done by making a party iaaue of the matter. We do not believe that every man is dishonest who is a Repub? lican. There areas good men in tho Republican party as ont of it, we are free to admit. While this is true, it is equally evident that a just proportion of honest and intelligent Republicans have not been bronght to South Carolina yet, or grown here. The conduct of oar Stato Government, oar financial oondi Lion, and the actions of our present City Council, shows the vastly preponder? ating influence of corrupt mon in the Republicanism in South Carolina np to this date. Judging of the futuro by the past, if Republicanism is made a pre? requisite qualification for candidates-if party lines are drawn, and the election carried on through tho agency of more political oluba, which, os a rule, are worked and manipulated by a few bad men-political trickslern and the veriest demagogues-we may expect nothing but to nee a set of men in tbs main un? reliable placed in office. Tho material interests of the city will inevitably be sacrificed to the privuto greed of n few individuals. There is no reason why politics should be dragged into a municipal election. Where there is no groat diversity of in? terests, aud cnoh parly embodies a fair proportion of the wealth, integrity and intelligence, sucha course works co groat harm. But it is wrong anywhere, and specially reprehensible in Buch a condi? tion of affairs us exist in Columbia whero tho mass of tho property-holders and of intelligent citizens are ono nido, and that side iu a minority. Party ?sm is the ourse of our country. lu their blind zeal for party advancement, even good citizens forget their country and knaves profit by it. Noarly all political parties are basod on pure and patriotic princi? ples; but, as has been trill}- said, they first become powerful and thou corrupt. In oar city government every sousible, reflecting citizen must admit that it is eminontly desirable, if not absolutely necessary, to seen ru at least an economi? cal management of city affairs, that the tax-payers who happen to be, a? a rule, anti Radical in their political viows, should bo represented in Ibo City Coun oil. Thc truo idea of Republicanism is that all tho varied interests of society, or as near all as can possibly bo m ido practicable, should bc represented and have thoir due influence in tho govern? ment. This follows, logically, from tho ground-work of our political oreed, that all governments should rest on tho con? fient of the governod. If wo had tho system of minority representation by cumulative voting in operation hero, there would be no trouble or difficulty in thu matter. As it is, we must endeavor to secure as nearly tho same result as is possible, by compromiso und agreement betwoon our two classes of citizens. Both white and black desire, or should desire, tho best possible govornment at tho smallest possible cost. On this latter point tho body of tax-payors aro the moro directly interested. They foot the bill of costs, aud they want it kept at ns low a figure as is ootiHistont with an effi? cient and proper government. All they wish and will Btrivo for is to keep down taxation and provent fraudulent or ex? travagant increased of tho city debt. Tho colored peoplo, wo believe, aro will? ing \i) accord to tho whites the privilege of Daming some of the Aldermen. A fa w demagogues and newly-fledged Re? publicans are the moat bitter opponents. TICHBORNE COKE TO GRIEF.-The cele? brated Tiohborne oase, which baa been ao long on trial in London, has come to an abrnpt conclusion, the plaintiff bov ing decided to withdraw bia case, and tho defendant's counsel thereupon mov? ing the arrest of the claimant for per? jury, which motion was granted, and Tiohborae taken into custody and con? veyed to Newgate. The bottom of the tub has come out of the pseudo-baro not'? pretensions at au earlier stage of the trial than any ouo could have ex? pected. Sir John Coleridge, who opened for the defence on the 15th of January, when the case was resumed after an ad? journment of somo months, must have talked the unhappy Tiohborne to death, for he had occupied four hours a day from that dato np to the 21st of Febru? ary, when the testimony for the defence commenced. The reports of the entire case, down to about the middle of Feb? ruary, bad occupied more than 700 co? lumns of the closely-printed matter iu the Times, and nearly 100 days have now been spent by the court in ita con? sideration. Tho celebrated Tiohborne bonds will DOW probably approximate the value of the Confederate cotton loan obligations, anti might bs otnployed to advantage by being presented with them as an offset to the United States claims at Geneva for indirect damages. Tm ax, OF MAYOR HALL.-So far the trial of Mayor Hall, of New York, for complicity with Tweed and others, in the Tammany ring frauds, has proved a tedious bnsiness-a mere conflict of technicalities as to the admissibility of certain forms of testimony. The de? fence bas ocenpiod much time in au at? tempt to role out of evidence a certain warrant issued to Garvey, the plasterer, for over 841,000, to which the Mayor's signature was attached; but on yester? day the objections ware overruled, and the warrant admitted as secondary evi? dence. The prosecution thon offered a book of audit, and the defence objected, and so the fight will, doubtless, con? tinuo to the end, if, indeed, it ia ever euded. -? ? ? ? A DESPERATB EXPEDIENT. - Colonel Dudley, of Marlboro, has allied himself with the Republican party, and has pub? lished in the Charleston Courier an ela? borate statement of the motives that impolled him to suoh a ooarse. All summed ap, it amounts to this, that the Democratic party and tho Reform party are defunct, and that the only way pos? sible to regenerate the State Govern? ment is lo join tho Republican party, and thereby .secure tho confidence of the negro; that the negro prefers to be led by his former master, and that the white people of the State, if they would win their ooufidcncu by joining the Repub? lican party, could have everything their own way. DIPLOMATIC BLUNDERS.-Tho New York Express does not consider the di? plomacy of the Admiuiatration a suuoess. Besides the apparent break-down of the treaty of Washington under ila manipu? lation, the Express enumerates the fol? lowing: Tho diplomatic blunder of the prcsont Administration was the Motley difficulty. Then came tho Catacnzy scandal, with violations of national cour? tesy, aud then tho complaint of Bancroft Davis against Biron Gorolt. the Prussian Munster, ending iu his recall, aud tend? ing to alienate tho kindly relations be? tween Germany aud the Uuitod States. Eighteen months ago George P. Marsh, Minister to Italy, 3ent to tho State De? partment a letter, in which ho declared that the course of thu Italian Govern? ment was "characterized by vacillation, tergiversation and duplicity;" and this letter Secretary Fish has published. The scan.luis of thu Rev. Mr. Kramer, at Copenhagen, aro known, nnd the list closes for the present with tho report from Madrid that Sickles made himself obnoxious to the Spauiah Government by his intermeddling in their affairt. A STOLEN PIANO.-The Beaufort lie publican says: The case of Behn, execu? tor of Belau, against C. C. Dudder, pre? sents some points of interest to mauy of our readers. There is a great dual of property held by the samo dubious title in this vicinity, and it is probable simi? lar suits will be plentiful. Suit was brought in this casu by Buhn to recover tho value of a piano taken from tho house of Belan during tho occupation of Grahamville by Sherman's army. De? fendant claimed to have received tho [Mano from an officer of the Federal army, and that ho saved it from the burning building, in which otherwise it would have been destroyed. The jury gave a verdict for plaiutii? for $200 and interest since commenuemu. t of suit. A B?llalo girl hus taken advantage of le ip year to such an inordinate extent that she is eugngod\to seventeen men, ami has buen sued for breach of promise by uino moro. Let V? be Vp and Moving. There ia a manifest inclination on Ibo part of the colored people and the better white Republicans of the city to lay Mida politics and join ia s citizens' moTsment to seonre honest and efficient city officials at the coming eleotion. All that is needed is a little energy and zeal on the part of the white people The work should be commenced at once, and meetings called in every ward in the city. Let the common platform be op? position to the Oity Hall fraud and to the issno of the $250,000 of oity bonds, low taxes and no increase of the city debt. All good mon will combine for that laudable purpose. If there is any public spirit in onr people, now is the timo to develop it. Wo deserve to be bankrupted and ruined if we can't muster courage'to make an effort to save ourselves. We have the pledge of several prominent colored oitizens that they will lend their influ? ence to aid the movement, provided it ia divestod of all political bias or color? ing. We can Bhow that by the nomina? tions mads, if in no other way. Will onr oitizens not go to work? There is no time to lose. The presa is a power? ful lever, bat the most it can do is to waru and-oounsel the people; they mast act for themselves. TUB HAVANA STTJDBNTS -Onr readers will remember that some months since ten or a dozen young students, mers boya, were murdered in Havana by order of a military oourt martial, for an offence which it was believed, at the time, they had never committed. A large number of studeotu were, at the same time, and for an alleged participa? tion in the same offence, condemned to the chain gang fur a long term of years. The following New York telegram ahows that even tho power of the young King of Spain is not equal to relieving these young men from their loathsome punish? ment. It says: A Havana letter in the Sun says seventy Spanish representatives recently waited on King Amadeus in Madrid, with unequivocal proof of the innocence of tho young students oondemued to the chain gang. The King telegraphed Valmaseda, at Havana, to release the atudeuts at once, but Valmaseda declines on the farcical pretenso that the volun? teers will assassinate thu lads as soon as ont of prison. Over 2,000 persoas of various shades assembled in Steinway Hall, New York, a few evenings ago, to listen to the sweet carolings of Alias Nelli? Brown and Miss Marianne Williams, the two Afrioan-Americaa prime donne?, who have lately magnetized fashionable co? lored society in that oity by their musi? cal talents. Miss Nellie Brown is an octoroon, with very haudsome features, aud a rarely ?weet voice, of rather small compilas at present, but capable of fine cultivation. Miss Brown has enjoyed the attention of the highest colored fa? milies of New York for aoine time past, and she is now aboot to proceed to Italy, to study music and improve her voice under tba great masters of song.' Sho baa all the material to become a tine singer, and will no doubt suooeed in her laudable effort to ascend the ladder of fame. Miss Williams sang in several concerted pieces, and displayed remark? able talent aa a vooalist. MAIM ARRANGED BETWEEN GEORQIA AND SOUTH CAROLINA AND TUB UNITED STATUS.-The New York Sun says: A great main has been arranged be? tween tho well-known Southern sporting mo?, Maj. T. G. Bacon and Mr. J. Bow? ler. Tho former represents Georgia aud South Carolina and tho latter bucks the United States. Eich party is to show thirty-ouo cocks, at weights ranging from four pou m's and teu ounces to five pounds and three ounces, and fight ac? cording to Turner's rules, as construed by Dr. Gee, of Selma, Alabama. Each battle is to be for $200uside, and 35,000 tho main. Maj. T. G. Bacon belongs to South Carolina, and Mr. J. Bowler is a resident of Georgia. Tho main is to be fought on the 10th and 11th of April, at Now Orleans. Conkiing dresses in tho ila.di ?est man? ner, aud walks with a gingerly stop, us if his shoes pinched him. Sumner's face is inclined to bu fluffy, and his well-dyod hair ia very abundant. Ho wears a much-cultivated top-not, which falls be? comingly over his forehead.

TAKING TIME BY THU FORELOCK.-lu anticipation of a removal of Judge Gra? ham by the Legislature, on tho unfound? ed charges reoeutly brought against him, au ambitious member of the bar armed i himself with a petition with forty signa? tures, aud took an early train for the capital, with a view to securing thu va? cancy.

BREAK IN THE CANAL.-Thero was : serious break in the bank of the canal & the revotment, juBt below Geiger's Mill on Sunday morning. A boat, hoavil; laden with wood for the penitentiary had boon carelessly left croBBwiso th canal, and fastened on either bank to stake, ou Saturday eveaing. There wa not sufficient water in the oanal at th time to bring tho boat on down, bu during tho night the wator gradually ir creased, and the boat, from its positioi forming a kind of dam opposing th current of water, was tora from its fat tellings sometime after sun rise, on Sm day moroing, und was precipitated without pilot or helmsman, down th canal. This battering ram, as it wen y M d ri rou with all the force of the rapi nod strong current against tbs rove ment, which finally gave way.

REDUCTION OF EXPBESS TARUP.-The different express compaaies have adopt? ed a new tariff, whioh went into effect on tho 1st instant. This is a very sensible step, and one that will be of great ad? vantage to the publie at large; and will, no doubt, vastly increase tho revenue of the companies in the increased amount of business that will accrue from thia chsDge. The reduction will be about fifty per cent, on the old rates for small remittances of currency, samples and email packagos. On sums pf twenty-five dollars, or nuder, destined to any point within the territory of the Southern Express Company, East of the Missis? sippi River, the charge will be twenty five cants. The oharge for the same to auy point West of the Mississippi River, whether in tho jurisdiction of the South? ern, Adams, American, Merchants, United States or Texas Express Comps* niee, will be fifty cents.

Baldwin's Monthly (edited and pub? lished by Baldwin the clothier) is one of the prompt and welcome visitors to our sanctum. The March number comes to us with interesting original contribu? tions from soveral authors of note. The editorial columns bristle with sharp, pointed paragraphs relating to trade, whioh ure in marked contrast to the hackneyed style of introducing a busi? ness to the public.
