Tho Municipal Elections In Mow lark, So great is Now York with her million pf inhabitants, her vast moana and her |)ro-ominent position aa the metropolis of tho repnblio, and so closely connected as she is by business interests with nearly every section of the Union, that we hear as mach of, and attach equal importance to, her municipal affairs, and probably more, than to that of most States. The oity sooma to be in a oritioal situation now from the queer conduct of the Re? formers, so-called, or Committee of Seventy and the Republican party, which. threatens to throw into power again thp sanio .corrupt and thieving set whioh. fleeced tho people under the role -of Tweed and Connolly. ILast year, when the frauds of Tam? many were disclosed, seeing the utter impossibility of patting forth reliable candidates from their own party organi? zations, which were in tho hands of tho corraptionists, the Democrats, by the thousands, being more of patriots than partisans, joined hands with the Repub? licans, who were lustily crying for re? form, and sucoeeded in breaking the power of the Tammany ring, and iu res? cuing the State from their hands. The city government of New York belongs by right to the Domooraoy, their party having a majority of from 40,000 to 60,000. When, therefore, the Demo? crats, having purified their party orga? nization, and plaoed men of spotless character, like O'Oonor, Tilden, ?ca., at the head of affairs, pat forth an unex? ceptionable ticket like the one which they have, it was to be expected that the Republicans, who profess a desire solely for an honest and capable selection of city officiais, would combine with them, and insure the defeat of the Tweed fac? tion, whioh Jimmy O'Brien now leads. Bat not BO. Hoping to take advan? tage of the split in the D?mocratie ranks in municipal affairs, so its to aid in the Presidential election, the Grant? ees have put a third ticket iu the field, with Mr. Havemeyer, a very excellent man, it is said, for Mayor, but with creatures of Tom Murphy and the Cus? tom House clique as candidates for sub? ordinate positions, whioh latter com? bined must shape, the character of the administration, should the tioket be elected. Bob there is but little if any chance of the iincoess of their ticket, and the scheme appears .very palpably to be to gain accessions tb their State and Presi? dential vote by consigning the oity again to the thieves of old Tammany. It is to be hoped that they will not succeed, and that the chief city of the republic may be saved from the clutches of vampires folly as greedy and dangerous as those whioh ate now feasting upon the life? blood of South Carolina. The latest novelty in New York jour? nalism is the rapid multiplication of what is known as "Society Journals." These papers are generally well edited, and aro radically Bohemian in tone. Upon the staff of each, a scion of the veritable Jenkins holds prominent place. In pursuit of his duties, he invades the bosom of every private family, studies the personnel and costume of all party goers, attends all the weddings, and rashes all engagements into print. In short, the society paper is a sort of court journal for the million, and when en riohed, as it generally is, with intelligent art and dramatic oritioism, lively anec? dote and pleasant fancies, finds its woy readily into every, drawing-room. In this seotion, a natural repugnance would be felt at the publicity thns given to private life; but in New York, whioh is so rapidly growing Parisian in tone, it is generally liked. The eca of humanity there' stretches over such a vast area of dead lovel, that any one fortunate enough to get his or her head above water, for a brief moment, is too mach gratified to question either the means or connection to which suoh distinction is due. A Roman Catholic priest at Paterson, N. J., baa forbidden his oharge to accept money for their votes, and ILstrnoted those who may have received money with snob, understanding to return it at once. Doubtless Harpers Weekly will de? nounce this as ambitious intermeddling bf Jesuits in American politics. The Santy of tho ballot-box must, at all azards, be preserved. I ? i Carl Schurz, whose prescience as a statesman has been so often signally il? lustrated, foretells the tendency pf this oonntry toward a similar condition of affairs as that existing io Mexico, and other South American republios. He points to the virtual abrogation of fran? chise at the South, to the open and un? disguised prostitution of exeoutive power and patronage, to the interests of cliques, to the consolidation of the United States Treasury with tbatp>f tho Badinai party, to the arming of the Exeoative with ex? traordinary sad despotic power, and to the tame submission manifested every? where by the people to overt nota of out? rage and oppression, each provocative of resistance, if not rebellion. Tho history of all republics .baa, been the same; indi vidual ambition invariably outlives popa lar Vigilance, and unbounded prosperity too Often beare on its bosom the seeds of I dissolution. The very individual liberty guaranteed by republios is au element of weakness through the absence of all in? centive to proteo? it.-: rights against Go? vernment encroachments. lu time this sapiuoness and inanition must provo fatal; it has always done BO iu the past, and the - aspect -of America to-day gives color to :pfir. Schurz'a fears, if not his theories. : There-election of Gen. Graut, should fitch a mjtiiorluriu ocour. will vir? tually endorse every step he has taken outside the Constitution, and secures to him every jjower be has wrongfully usurped. . His future administration, judging by tho past, is likely to be tho most porrupt over experienced. The same unwarranted means .used to secure a eecoud terra may be quite as.unscrupu? lously used to enforce a third, and be? yond- that no patriotic eye dare pen?? trate. .Whether the. people will ever be ready to follow. Mr. Schures ad vico, given at the same time, to "fight fire with fire, and force with force," is ex? tremely . problematical; as a general thiog it is only tho poor who rebel, the prosperous never. No doubt our form of government is destined to Some changes, but for a generation, at least, these will tend toward centralization and consolidation, aiming more at the per? fection of a strong cation than a free people. Tho Qr int faction is a war faction that is, it .vants the Government of this country conducted on the military prin? ciple. General Sargent, iu a speech at Apollo Hall, is reported as making tho folio wi ug startling declaration : "Ho sug? gested that bereu/^r tho Government oharacter should beoomo more military, and, therefore, 'vigorous.' 'Ballots baoked by bullets,' should be the motto of every soldier, and an appeal to arms should be made whou one to reason had failed. Hu was iu favor of ono y oar's camp service for every man in tho na? tion." Now, this threat-for so we re? gard it-this threat against the personal liberty of tho citizen, ought to ho a warn? ing to every patriotic man .iu the coun? try. It ought to make votes for tho cause of Liberalism next Tuesday. REMOVAL, OF Titi AL, JUSTICE JAMBS MCCABLAN.-We regret to announce, and we are nure that the citizens of our County, especially of bis own section, will learn with unfeigned surprise and regret, the removal of this highly es? teemed and effloieut Trial Justice. Tho reason assigned in the notice of bis re? moval is a failure to keep the peace; but how a magistrate is to be made responsi? ble for the preservation of the public peace, without somo specific allegation of official neglect or malfeasance, we aro at a loss to imagine. That any such oould be established against this excel? lent magistrate, noone who knows any? thing of tho man, could for a moment suppose. This removal of pnblio of? ficers, upon ex parla statements, without affording an opportunity of meetiut; the occasion and vindicating one's offioiul oharacter, is one of the crying evils ot the present system of appointment and removal. Uuder the old system magis? trates oonld only be removed alter due indictment and conviction of officiai mis? conduct; but now any ono who may have the ear of tho Governor, to gratify some private pique or advance some party purpose, may effect tho removal of the most efficient Trial Justice in the Oounty.-Abbeville Press and Banner. Mit ETI NO OF THU FORTY-THIRD CON? GRESS.-The forty-third Congress will not meet until the first Monday of De? cember, 1873, unless sooner called toge? ther in extraordinary session. The im? pression prevails among many persons that the Aot of January 22, 1867, re? quiring a new Congress to assemble on March 4, immediately on the adjourn? ment of its predecessors, is still in force; but this law was repealed by the thirtieth section of tbe United States statute ap? proved April 20, 1871, and to bo found on page 12 of tho .^wa passed at the first session of the forty-second Congress. The repealing section is contained ia a deficiency appropriation Aot, and the entire statute ia well worth examining, as a ourious illustration of tbe incon? gruous measures that are crowded into one bill during the expiring boura of a session of Congress. Hyacinthe's example is contagious, Abbe Bauer, chaplain to the Empress Eagenie, will be married. INTERESTING REMINISCENCES OT TBS. CHIMES OF Two CENTURIES.-Mra. Peli? gra Carson contributes to the last ?asno of Appleton** Journal the folio Wieg plea? sant sketch of old St. Michael's and its Chimo of bells: Very dear to the people of Charleston, South Carolina, ie St. Michael'e Church in that city, whioh is said to have been bnilt after a model furnished by Sir Christopher Wren, aud copied from St. Martin's-in-tho-Fielde, London. The likeness to St. Martin's is so strong that no, Oharleatonian, on coming - to Lon? don, i needs ^he?ve i hut church pointed out. -The spire . -of-St.- -Michael's, how? ever, is much the niore beautiful. Any one who had, seen it would remember tho church, with . its old-fashioned ma? hogany pulpit, and .great brasa chande? liers, and high-buck mahogany pews, whore the devout might pray, and the oareless sleep unseen. But chiefly were tho people proud of their.bells. There was no euell chime in the colony when they were hung, and, after they had changed their tune of God save the King for Yankee Doodle, there never were any bells in New York or Boston that came up to them in their Fourth of July performances. Of all the works of man's hands, there is none which seems to have snob a life of its own as bella. How they sympathize with the people, giving voice to their joys and their sor? rows! How, with prophets' VO?COB, they speak to eaoh man in his own tongnel And now, sometimes, like mocking spirits, they urge the mad jury of the mob with peals of vengeance and tri? umph, which in tho ears bf the wiser fow uro a knell of despair. \ When the British took Charleston in 1780, they stabled their hornes in the church, and, unhanging the bella, sent them off to London, where they were dumped on the Tower wharf, and loft unnoticed for many years. At lost, tho vestry of St. Michael's received a letter, bidding them expect their bells by a certain ship-sailiusr from London. The people went !?n procession to bring up from the ship their beloved bells, whioh they had never hoped to.listen to again, and with prayers and thanksgiving they were replaced in the church tower. The pions benefactor never made himself known, but he was supposed to have been some British officer who bad been at the taking of Charleston. For seventy years, did those bells regulate the social life pf the oity. For, not only did they call to worship, and celebrate all occa? sions of public joy and Borrow, but nightly they rang a curfew which ruled everybody's movements. It was intend? ed to warn the negroes home at 9 o'clock in winter, 10 in summer; aftci that hour, they might not go iutu the streets without a written pass. The uimble negro often eluded the statute, giving leg-bail to the "guardman," bul the whites put themselves under thc rule, of their own accord. All vittiton were expeoted to take leave at boll-ring, and thoy punctually departed at th? same moment that Caffy was bruuhiu? along to gain his gate before the tap o the drum should make him amenable tt the law against strollers "after boura,' as it was called. It would not Bait this sketch to reoal the memories of the day whou tin .United States flag, lowered from For Sumter, was brought up to the city, amid a hush so general, one might havi thought thu people repented them o this rash act, till some one ordered th? bells to ring <\ mad clamor, and witt shouts of exaltation, they drowned th voice that still warned them to forbear. Time went on, and Charleston, bellini her defences of sand, resisted all th efforts. to carry her. Daring the 501 (516) days of bombardment, all tin lower part of the town had to be aban doned. Houses and churches were shat tered, the cannon balls tore np the ver gravo-yarda, and the bones ol the dom wore scattered. Yet the spire of St Michael's was untouched. Perhaps tb cannoneers tried to spare it-perhap good augols guarded it. But, whu neither the malice of the enemy nor th spite of fortune did, tho people them selves effected. For the bells were take down and sent to Columbia, to be cus into cannon. Gen. Beauregard, porhup shocked ut the desecration, pronounce' them unfit for the purpose; and the fat which heaped up at Columbia for safe keeping everything of value iu the State there detained the bells also. The: Sherman's army passed through, leavin its traok as of lightning. A party c half-drunken soldiers, out for a lark au for plunder, wero aocosted by a negro bo offered to show thom tho bell nich bad rung in secession. "Never, said the men, "shall they play that tun ?ginni" and they smashed them into hundred pieces. Sad was tho return to the desolate homes, and tho meetings in tho dum church, to whioh no miruole might no restore the voioe of the chimes the loved. But they were mon of plao still, and as soon as they bad shake themselves up aud provided for the fin pressing needs, they resolved to ta themselves to tho utmost to get a ne chime. Scarcely had tho rector bread, and tb veetry and congregation were all vei poor, but they wrote to C. R. Prioloai of London, to inquire the cost of a ne set. This gentleman bad lived so lou in Eoglund as to havo become almost H Englishman, with a fair English wi: and bluff handsome English ohildrei but his heart stirred at the recollects of tho dear old voices that had calk him iu ohildhood, and he undertook tl task with a loving zeal that brougl about tho most surprising results. Thoi was no reoord at Charleston of where tl bells carno from. But Mr. Priolea searched the directory for the oldei founders of the oity, and went from oi to the other until, at Meares & Co White Chapel, London, a firm wino has been iu existence 800 years, 1 found, by patient examination, tl record of bells cast for St. Michael Church, Charleston, S. C., in 1769. Tl proportions of the metal, and tbe size? of tbe' bolls, were nil entered in tbe books; nud.tho present Meares engaged to turn out o new sot, which, when hung, should make /|h<- Chariest oninns ^them? selves think they heard their veritable old bella. Bat* Mr. {Prioleau was not Content with this;'tie wrote buck to have all the frognVe'htfl* that could be found Bent ont, and thii was done. Mean? while, Meares found still in their eer vice au old man ot seventy-six, who bud boon an n npT utico under the very fore mnn who,-coot;? than? IOU years before, had cast tires" bells; and be, stimulated by Prioienu^B-generosTty, never rested till be brought to Jigbt - tho very original moulds for tho eastings. Into them tho uew metal was melted with carobil dis? tribution of tbe broken fragments, so as to make the illusiona reality. All that was wanting to . make up the cast Mr. Prioloau added, and tho reward of bis perseverance and generosity was to send to the vestry these new behn, Which are the very old ones still. Again did the congregation with tears Abd thanksgiv? ing receive the bells from this their fifth voyage across tho Atlantic, and buug thom up in ?St. Michael's steeple. May tbey never again bu removed by the rough band nf war, or ever sound aught but peace ou earth and good will toward men. MRS. PETIGRU CARSON. A SM Ann FORTON E ON TUB WINO. - j Monday afternoon the police authorities received ? despatch from A. E. Kent, at Stun cuit Point, Lexington County, Smith Carolina, stating that Dr. A. Taylor h...' Committed a breach of trust ut that place; that he would renell Augusta by the train on the Charlotte, Columbia and I Augusta Railroad, due at 2 o'clock, and requesting that he bo orroitod immedi? ately upon his nrrival. lu compliance with the request, Taylor wus arrested when the train came in and d butted to uwait the arrival of Kent, who ?ad also stated in bis despatch that he would fol? low on after Taylor and reach Augusta Tuesday evening. Taylor had in Iiis possession, when arrested, two guns, both heavily charged, n loaded revolver, und a large sum of money iu currenoy and silver coin. His story is that BOCIO time since be wus engagod to a young lady at Mount Summit, for whom he was also guardian. Every thing went as merry as a murringo bell aud nothiug disturbed the course of true love uutil a Northern mau named A. E. Kent mudo bis appearance, and set up a store iu thu place where lived tho affianced pair. Kent immediately luid siege to tho heurt of the young lady, and finally succeeded in winning her affections aud inducing her to break off her engagement willi Taylor. He then-according to Taylor's statement-made a demand upon the re? jected lover for the property which the lutter held as guardian for tho young ludy. Taylor refused to comply with tho demand, and, discovering that mea? sures were being tuken fur his arrest, ho .left for Augusta, taking with him the mouey mentioned ubove. This money, Taylor states, belongs to tho young lady, and is held by him as her guardian. He says that should he givo it np to Kent, ho would, by law, be responsible to his ward fur it, and that he left Carolina in order to prevent Kent's taking it from bim by force.-Augusta ConstilulionatisU SYMPTOMS OP CATARUH.-Dull, heavy headache, obstruction of nasal passages, discharge fulling into throat, sometimes profuso, watery, acrid, thick and tena? cious mucus, purulent, muao-pnrulent, bloody, putrid, offensive, etc. In others a dryness, dry, watery, weak or inflamed eyes, ringing in oars, deafness, hawking and ooagbing to olear the throat, nicer:? lions, soabs from ulcers, constant desire to olear nose and throat, voice altered, nasal twang, offensive breath, impaired smell and tuste, dizziness, montai de? pression, tickling cough, idiocy and in? sanity. All the above symptoms are common to the discaso in some of its stages or complications, yet thousands of cases an? nually terminate iu consumption, und end in the grave, without ever manifest? ing ono-third of the above symptoms. N? disease is moro co ai mon or less un? derstood by physicians. The proprietor of Dr. Sago's Catarrh Remedy will puy $500 reward for a case of Catarrh which be cannot euro. Sold by druggists. The justice of the verdict rendered by the public yeurs apo in favor of the MEXICAN MUSTANG LINIMENT must be apparent to all \. '-;.> have used that fa? mous preparation, or seen it nsod.

The worst of this sort of thing is, that if the above quoted paragraph should ever reach Eugland, it will probably be ac? cepted as a true, although extraordinary, feature of American development in the West.

In the Roman Church, thia is a fast day, preceding 'this feast of All Saints Day, the 1st of November, which is followed by AU Souls Day, the 2d of November; a day of feast or.so? lemnity by tho Roman Catholia Church, to supplicate for the souls of the faith? ful dead. Respecting Hallow E'en, the vigil of All Saints Day, thero are many acconuts of customs. On this uight, young people in the North of Eaglaud dive for apples, or catch at them, when stuck upon one end of a kind of banging beam, at the other end of which is a lighted candle. They catch at the apples with their months only, their hands being tied behind their backs. From the custom of flinging nuts into the fire, or cracking them'with their teeth, it has likewise obtained the Darno of nut-crackine night. In an an? cient illuminated publication, a person is represented balancing himself upon a pole laid across two stools; at tho ond of the pole is a lighted candle, from which he is endeavoring to light another in his hand, at the risk of tumbling into a tub of water placed under him. The yoong people in Scotland de? termine tho figure and size of their husband or wife, by drawing cabbages blind fold on Hallow E'en. &eV?,go into the gorden band in hand. P.Hbfl fblde'd, ano poll the first fctock Tuey/foeet with. Its being large or.small, gfcniight or crooked, ia propfaeUo-otrtho aia*i.-and shape of . the grand object o f..their spells. If any earth clings to the roots, that is fortune; and tho taste of tho heart uf the cabbage stock is indicative of tho teni .per and disposition of the ohosen one. Lastly, the stems are placed feomewhere above the head of the door, and the Christian names of the people whom chance brings into the house are, ac? cording to the priority of placing the stems, the names in question. Burning the nuts is a favorite charm in Scotland. Name the lady and gentle? man to eaoh particular nut, as you lay thom in the fire; and accordingly as they burn quietly together, or start from be? side one another, the course and Issue of the courtship will be. f In Ireland, when the young women would know if their lovers aro faithfi. they put three nuts upon the bars of the grates, naming tho cuts after the lovers. If a nut oracku or jumps, the lover will prove unfaithful; if it begins to blaze or burn, be has a regard for the person making the trial. If the nuts named after a girl and ber lover bnrn together, they will be married. Another charm ie by eating an apple at a glass. Take a candle, and go alone to a looking-glass; eat an apple before it, and, some tradi? tions say, comb your hair all the time; the face of your conjugal companion, to be, will be Been in the glass, as if peep? ing over your shoulder. " ~ There are some lines, by Charles Gray? son, Esq., ou "Nuts Burning, on Hallow E'en," which we reproduce: "These glowing nuts are emblems true Of what in human life we view; Theill-match'd oonple fret and fume, And thus in strife themselves consume, Or from each other wildly start, And with a noise forever part. But see the happy, happy pair, Of genuine love and truth sincere; With mutual fondness, while they burn, Still to each other kindly tnrn, And os the vital sparks decay, Togetner gently sink away; ? Till, life's tierce ordeal being past,. Their mingled ashes rest at lust." HOTEII ARRIVAIS, October 30, 1872.
