Foreign AITA lr?. BEHLIN, April 9.-Bismarck read the Emperor's speech opon the opening of tho German Parliament. A uniform beer and malt tax and the acquisition of Alsace and Lorraine wore the most start? ling topics. The speech oonolndes as follows: "The strength acquired by the imperialization is the bulwark of the fatherland, and a guarantee of peace to Europe." LONDON, April 9.-A remonstrance to the Spanish Government against the prohibition of the departure of Chinese laborers from Coba was urged in the House of Commons. The Ministry stated that the Government was aware that the Havana authorities forbade their ?xodos. The Post's rumor that the foreign of fice had received a despatch from the United States, whioh solved the question of consequential damages, is authorita? tively deniod. The contradiction pro? duces general disappointment. LONDON, April 9.-The grand jury at the Old Bailey indicted the Tichborne claimant for forgery and perjury. A special despatch to the Manchester Guardian Bays Hon. B. C. Sohenck, while in Paris, from whioh city he re? turned yesterday, had au interview with the American counsel before the Geneva tribunal of arbitration, and upon his ar? rival here called upon Earl Granville. The result of these interviews, says the despatch, is that neither counsel nor ar? bitrators will meet nt Geneva on the 15th inst.-the day appointed for the as? sembling of the board-but that the English and American agents will meet and exohat ge counter cases. The de? spatch further states that the board of arbitration will not again assemble until the 15th of June. America.ii Intelligence). NKW YOI?K, April 9.-A meeting of the Demooratio National Committee is called for Wednesday, the 8th of May, at the residence of August Belmont, in this city, to designate the time and place for a national convention. The World says Belmont's procrastination meets the ap? proval of the Democratio leaders. The World adds: "The delay seems to have been occasioned with a view to take ad? vantage of the Cincinnati Convention results, whioh may determine as to tho time for holding the Democratio Na? tional Convention." At a meeting of the Cl ar lng House, a resolution to expel the Tenth National Bank was defeated by a compromise to put the bank upon its future good be? havior. The Tribune says Fenton will address the liberal Republicans at Cooper Insti? tute on Friday. Schurz will address tho German citizens at Cooper Instituto on Wednesday. WASHINGTON, April 9.-The State Department has received advices that the Madrid Government is investigating the case of Dr. Howard. Meantime, Dr. Howard remains at Cadiz. Orders havo been given for his good treatmeut. The Senate is discussing a depot in tho heart of the city for tho Pennsylva? nia Central combination. Tho question is upon its reference to a favorable com? mittee, though the merits of the depot enter largely into the discussion. The Way s and Moans Committee is consider? ing details for a uniform tobacco tax. In the House, Sypher, from the Com? mittee on Bailways and Canals, reported a bill to incorporate the Shreveport and Okalona and the New Mexioo Railroad; whioh waa ordered to be printed and re? committed. A bill for the relief of Chatterton & McGuire, of Borne, Ga., waa passed. Three members were ap? pointed to co-operate with the commit? tee for the Morse memorial, on the 16th instant. Probabilities-Tho lowest biromoter, now probably centra! ovor Goorgian Bay, will move North-eastwardly down the St. Lawrence Valley with diminishing pressure over the Now England States. Bising barometor with Westerly to Northerly winds and clear and clearing weather will prevail on Wednesday from the lakes to the Gulf and South and Middle Atlantic oo ists, and extend over New England by and on Wednesday morning. Brink Westerly to North? westerly winds will extend during to? night from the upper to the lower lako region, and to the middle Atlantio coast, but dangerous winds are not anticipated, exoept possibly for the lower lakes. In the Senate, the morning hour was oxhausted with tho depot matter. Other business gave way, and a test vote, to refer the bill to tho Committeo on Pub? lic Buildings and Grounds, understood to be opposed to the grant, waa lost nyes 18; nays 38. The bill waa thon re? ferred to the District of Columbia Com? mittee. This notion secures the ultimate triumph of the Pennsylvania Central combination in scouring depot facilities in tho oity, which the Baltimore and Ohio combination baa been fighting quite bitterly. A bill authorizing the sal o of tho old arsenal grounds at Augus? ta, Ga., passed. Pomeroy, from tho Committee on Public Lands, reported ?hills to incorporate tho Now Mexico Central Railroad Company and tho Now Mexico and Gulf Railway Company, and grant them rights of way. In tho House, a bill authorizing tho issue of one cent postal cards passed. The Houao members of tho Morse me? morial oommittee are Roberts, Palmor and Shober. In the Senate, to-day, upon intima? tion that Parker's namo, ut his own re? quest, had been withdrawn, and that Ingrabam, colored, had been nominated as Surveyor of Customs nt Now Orleans, Senator Wilson moved for an executive session, when Kellogg reported Ingra ham's nomination from the Committee of Commerce, and moved a suspension of the mles, and tho nomination was confirmed. COUNCIL BLUFFS, April 9.-Fifteen inches of snow, and weather threatening still. ?? 1 1. I* '? ' ' ?. ALBANY, N. YV, April 9.-?-The Hon. Erastus Coming died last Bight, after a long illness. He passed gently away. HAT ANA, April 9.-The Spaniards here rejoice over the result of the e leo ti o na in Spain. The Spanish conservatives triumphed in Porto Rico in the election for members of the Cortes. Yalmaseda is gone to Santiago. CHABXIESTON, April 8.-Arrived steamer Champion, New York. Sailed steamer Maryland, Baltimore. CHARLESTON, April 9.-The Ku Klux trials did not begin to-day, owing to the non-arrival of lodge Bond. NEW YORK, April 9-Evening.-The Atalanta boat club, which is to row tho London club on the. Thames, leaves here next Saturday. Daniel Drew publicly asserts that he was not interested in the locking np of money by the Tenth National Bank. He was examined before United States Commissioner Davenport this morning. It was proved that the bank had not withheld money from circulation for a consideration, und thc complaint was dismissed. BULLYING GRANT.-We learn, says the Beaufort Republican, of the 4th instant, that a meeting was held in Columbia to decide upon tho names to be handed to the President to fill the vacancies. The meeting was harmonious in nil save the names. No agreement could be como to, and the meetiug adjourned to meet in Washington this week. Tho facts of tho case aro, that no such instructions were given to the delega? tion. General Grant will not need tho votes of South Carolina in thc nominat? ing convention. If they should cast their votes for another, they will proba? bly stand alone. To this we would have no objection if it proceeded from a no? bler motive. We think our delegation would honor itself and the State br? easting the vote of South Carolina for Charles Sumner. But to do so because General Grant will not dispenso the pal? try patronage of the State in aooordance with the desires and interests of Tom Mackey, wonld be no compliment to the pure record of Mr. Sumner. Nor do wo believe that Gen. Grant is the man to be coeroed into any line of action, but ra? ther that the very means, conceived to be so powerful by the petty politicians who have devised the scheme, will resnlt in fixing more firmly the present officers in their places, and close his mind to any arguments against them. Tho whole scheme is worthy only of small political bummers. NAVAL ACTIVITY.-Persons lately re? turned from England roport that there is a very bitter and angry feeling th;?o against the position of tho United States in relation to the Geneva arbitra? tion. The press shows this very plainly, bat it is said that these organs of public opinion are mild and reserved upon the topio, in comparison to the outspoken sentiments at the clubs, and in society generally in London. Tho Government itself regards tho matter so seriously as to go to work in nrsenal and navy yard with unwonted vigor. On ono iron-clad now building at Chatham, COO men are to be employed during the year, and ?S2,500 is put down in the navy esti? mates to bo expended on labor and ma? terials for the hull. During the samo time, nine thirty-five ton guns, made at the royal gun factories, Boyal Arsenal, Woolwich, have just beon bored ont to n calibro of twelve inches, and havo beon added to tho naval armament. Tho navy has also recently received thirteen guns, called tho "Woolwich Infants,'* which aro called tho most powerful pieces of ordnance now in existence in England or elsewhere. They will send a steel shot through fifteen inches of armor plate, or carry a GOO-ponnder cannon ball from Woolwich into London, a dis? tance ot seven miles. These guns will be used iu the three large iron-clads now in course of completion, all of which looks very siguilicant at the present time. "OLD PROBABILITIES."-Tho writer remembers a farmer iu this Couuty who was always very much exercised on ac? count of the influence which lie sup? posed the telegraph lino, which ran Eastward from his littlo farm, exerted upon tho clouds, insisting, with the greatest gravity, that it diminished tho , rain fall Westward aud increased it East? ward. Now comos a California editor, who says a meeting was recently held at Lako City, Florida, at which a resolution was adopted, with scarcely a dissenting voice, to drive away tho signal service observer at that place, "beoauso it was believed that his instruments caused tho unexampled bad weather and largo amount of rain which has fallon lately." IAugusta Chronicle and Sentinel. Tho Governor of California has signed tho bill requiring plaintiffs in libol suits against newspapers and others to give security ia tho sam of $500 for co?ts. Tho bill was asked for by tho entire press of tho State, and its passago will have a tendency to check n very injuri? ous* class of litigation, some of which was purely malicious and much mcroly speculative. No meritorious aotion will i bo hindered by the now law, while black? mailing principals, and attorneys who live upon champerty, will be checked in their pernicious career. The editor of the Now Orleans Repub? lican thinks it must havo beea the proof? reader who mode him call tho Governor "our enterprising thiof," when he meunt to say "our enterprising chief." The oitizens of Bock Hill havo taken stops to establish a malo acadomy at that place. Five Ku Klux prisoner?, confined in Rutherford, N. C., jail, mado their escape on Thursday night last. There was a grand temperance cele? bration nt Blackville on Wednesday lust. Tho Apache campaign is likely to bo suspended for want of mouey. i ? i . gg Financial ?nit Commercial. COLUMBIA, 9.
