COLUMBIA, S. C. Wednesday Morning, Jane 4,1B73. Ftwer but Stronger J<ju?*iiul??Tlieir Proper Function?. A significant change js taking place in Soatbarn journalism. It is found that the business, in most of our cities, hau been ove*-crowded. Tho process of thinning out began two or three, yearn ago, in Richmond, Va. Moro recently, Mobile followed suit, and the Tribune expired, leaving tho Held exclusively to the Register. A few weeka ago, the venerable Courier, of Oharleston, whose voice has beun potent and influential for three-fourths of a century, was sold for a song, and tho luaty yonng Neves (tor the evening-morning- B tUletin-Chronich has hardly settled itself) alone, .remains tc tell the tale of Charleston commorce aud enterprise, and to reflect its viow3, policy and opinion?. The Augusta Constitu tionalist, also respectable in age and in? fluence has likewise been oompollod to succumb; and now we read tbut the Sa? vannah Republican^ which has been con? ducted with ability 'and spirit, has boon merged in the Advertises. Richmond, wo believe, has threo duilios; Atlanta three; Wilmington two, and Columbia, until recently, had four; while Charles? ton, Mobile, Savunnah and Augusta have but ouo euch. Sometimes iuflu enoes, other than circulation, advertis? ing and- job business, temporarily sus? tain a journal, as must have been the case in this city, when so many dailies appeared and kept the field. Those in? fluences are mostly political, and the newspapers whioh reflect only dictated or partial viefrs, are bolstered by par? ties, oliques or individuals of moucyed influence, who keep prudently in tho baqk ground. Resting on this flimsy foundation, they cau only have a limited term of existence, and they command no respect while thus galvanized into life. Being small organs, out of tune uith the great mass of tho community, 'their wheezing utterances are disregarded, and soon bring them into contempt. They are ol no* use even to their up? holders, except for -a special oooaoiou or limited time. The;example of GhurlL.3 ton, Augusta, Savannah, and Mobile will have to be followed, sooner or later, by the other cities mfcntlonod. .If Charles? ton, with u population of 50,000, Mobile 32.000, and Augusta-; 1,0,000, .each with large advertising ? bdaiuess, can only aft'ord ouo daily newspaper of good size and good matter, of oourse town:, of from 5,000 to' 10,000 can do no more, legitimately. The expense of couduet ing newspapers is considerably greater than before the war, and these expenses have to be met every week. They must have large circulation, abundant adver? tising of a paying sort, be muuugod with economy and skill, and oven then, in most cases, they have to be aided by jjb offices, whioh are run in connection with them. . ? ? We are not surprised, therefore, nor need we be grieved.at the munifest ten? dency to consolidation in this business. Where there is not adequate support for two or three newspapers, it is to the inte? rest of tho community, as well us to that of newspaper men themselves, that only one should continue to exias in it. There i3 but ono fiubacriptiou to pay instead of two or three,fand ouly a half or third of the expenses in advertising, with us greatrafncl probably greater ndvantuges in reaching those interested in adver? tisements. Rivalry in this calling, as in all others, is, of course, of gre?t value; but competition, .which is tho life of trade, is hazardous where the Held and ojputlitiout! arc unsuitable. j-Ceudurs and supporters of newspapers, ou the other hand,, can generally rely for protection from monopoly or> the wholesome fenr of opposition, aLuou a failure to come up to the highost standard will produce. Whore ono papor, instead of two or threo or four, represents a community, it ought to be bettor in the quality as well as the quantity of its matter. It should become more iudopeudont, and its euergy aud enterprise must not bo backward to oc? cupy the wider field opened to it. Fix? ing upon a reasonable amount of matter ut< noeo.siary to its nsefalueijs, the pro? prietor should sco to it that it be good, suggestive, varied, sound aud timely. In mechanical execution, it must, of course, bo unexceptionable and attractive, and no reasonable expense ought to bo spared to inako it fresh, pleasing and instruc? tive. The activity and resources, and tho cloae scrutiny of the proprietor or business mauager, are indispensable to eiTect these results. Suitable comments, appropriate reflections, a proper mea? sure of information and facts and a can? did spirit,'shonld mark the editorial con? trol. Exposuroof wrong, commendation of right, encouragement oi ail that is good and true, andn generally charitable construction of motives, should pre-emi uontly distinguish this department of a journal. The avidity with which newspapers are road may bo fairly taken as tho mea? sure of their possible influence, either for good or bad. It imposes correspond? ing obligations apon those charged with conducting them, to make them as weighty as possible with instruotive fact, inspiring suggestion aod wholcBome truth. Who oan eat a breakfast now in comfort till he has glanced ovor the morning journal and caught tho coup iVit'il which it presents of the world's busy lift?? "It is the thought aud action of tho world about us, caught ou tho wing and transferred, throbbing with life aud death, with' love and hate, with terror and joy, into our hands." The newspaper was the theme a week ago of an eloquent sermon by Robert Oollycr, of Chicago, with a short extract from whiou wo will conclude: "I believe," ho said, "that a great and good newspaper is as aacred in its own way as the Bible. It has somothing in it of the very pre? sent word of God to man, and the very present word of man to God. The heart-boat of both puleato In its news? papers; the hand of both Beta tho type, und tho spirit of both reads tho proof. A good newspaper is. as true aministruut to tho best life of the soul as good bread is to that of the body, and it has become about as indispensable." The Judicxat. EijECTion in It r.'Nois.? An election was held on Monday in Illinois for two Judges of the Suprorao Court and thirty-one Judgea^of tho Cir? cuit. Court, and it presents an unprece? dented issue in Slate politics. It will be remembered that the Supremo Court of the 3tate deoided (Judge Lawrence de? livering the opinion) that tho freight law of that State, forbidding discrimination and limiting tolls by the railroad compa? nies, to be in violation of the provisions of tho State Constitution, which, under the head of "railroade," gives certain powers of regulation, but which the court held had been exceeded in tho law. The Patrons of Husbandry, composed of farmers whose interest influenced tho pp.Hsngo of the law in tho Legislature, took offence at the decision, aud imme? diately organized for a canvass in the judiciul eleotionB upon that issue alone. The ucliouof theratrous of Husbandry, m fur ay this canvass ie concerned, has disorganized both political parties in tho State, and the singular issue is presented in that State of reversing, by uu appoal to the people, the decision of the Su? preme* Court of tho State. Judge Law? rence is a candidate for re-election, and is oppoaod by Mr. Craig, who is under? stood to favor a different construction of tho law. Keuche to tue G. A. R.? We take the following acoount of nn episode during Federal memorial day, at Mcbiln, ou the 3(Uh ult.j from the Register, of that city. It is certainly a withering rebuke to the Grund Army of the Republic, who deco? rated tho graves tit Arlington, aud issued that infamous order prohibiting the de coratiou of Confederate graves at the same time aud plaoe: . A boautiful bouquet of flowers, ar? ranged in most exquisite taste, the blue and the gray being b'ended, waj set upon the mound, with a cird which road I as follows: TUE Muli CiF.

It was also an evidence that the South made no war j anon tho dead, obliterating all paseion land animosities at the portals of the tomb. The Remains of Minister Oku.?Tho Washington correspondent of the Now York Herald writes: "Tho Secretary of State uns received a despatch from United States Consul Robinson, at Hamburg, stating that the body of ex-Gov. James L. Orr, of South Carolina, the late Minister Plenipoten? tiary to Russia, left thut placo on the 2Sth ultimo, on the stoamor Thuringia. It is understood that tho remains will be received In New York by the Grand Lodge of Masons of that State, with tho distinguished honors of thut order, Gov. Orr having been the Grand Master of the IGrand Lodge of South Carolina. Thero will also be a civic demonstration in Now York, in whioh the Government I will bo duly represented." The Governor of the State of Mexico has arrest od a number of monks and nuns, on the charge of maintaining im? proper relations with eaoh other iu tho privato Louses where they have lived as religions oommanities bir.ee the abolish? ment of the convents.

Horace saya that the heart of [ tho first navigator tuu.it have been shielded With three-fold brass,' and yet traft poet could hardly have found words to express his astonisnment at the intrepid seaman who first ventured to face the unknown terrors of the frozen world. Many bold men who have penetrated those inhospi? table Bhores have lived to tell the moving tale of all its hardships and ' dangers, while many others equally as skillful have sauk into nameless graves boncath tho mighty iceberg. Moro than 800 years ago Heriolf became soparatcd from his Bon, Biron, who in vain searched long and far for his father's vessel; it was nevor seen again, and entitles him to become the first in the roll of Arotio victims. lu 1550, tb?j Oarteresls searched iu vaiu, and with loss of life, for tho North? west passage to Cathay. Following the leading idea of Columbus, and fiuding the American continent stretching be? tween them and tho loud of spicea and silks, they* oudoavo.ed to rouud its Northern shores, and were loft amid the Polar snows. Tho Spaniards long con trolled all the known routes to ludiu. Iuetead of sailing over its entire circum? ference, the other nations hoped to roach tho Orient by climbing over its end. The Museovey oompany, with this view, sent out tho gallant Sir Hugh Willough by, who, with bis ontire crew, wore frozou to death at tho month of the river Araina, in Lapland. Uareutz pe? rished off tho icy capo of Rasnau Ame? rica in 1500, nnd ho was followed in 1011 by sturdy Hendrick Hudson, the Dutch discoverer of Manhattan, whose crew set him afloat in a small boat iu the centre of Hudson liny, whoso waters bo cama his gravo. On the 8th of December, 1711, old Behring gavo way to the infi-niitiea of age aud temper, aud wii3 buried no the bleak ii-land called after him, and in 1700 ShaluroiT, another itussinn, with all his Ciew, perished Crom starvation of? tho coast of Siberia. Captain Cook'? last expedition, although ho met his death from the club of a'Sandwioh Isl?nder, was on its way to attempt the Polar Soa through Behriug's Straits. On the Cth of July, 1815, tho brave and experienced Sir John Franklin, iu command of the Erebus and Terror, was loft by a whala-ship moored to an ice? berg near the eeutre of liufliu's Bay, waiting for an opening into Lancaster Sound, through which ho hoped to achieve his life-dream by hading the North-west, passngo. Thin wan tho last ever bcc-u of his crow by civilized eyes, and beneath some floating hummock or moving glacier rests all that is mortal of him, while Arctic explorations have been changed from a search fo~ u high? way of nations into a mourning exhuma? tion of ucattercd frogrncuts, indicating tho cotireo and progress of the terrible death struggle made by him und bis men. Dr. Kane survived his voyage iu search of Franklin aud the ship that bore him, ouiy to linger for a short time beneath the cocoa aad the palm of the tropics. A more pleasing reminiscence is that of I the "Resolute," which was abandoned by Sir E. Belohor, who was on the same mission, and was recovered by Captain Hartstino, who was looking after Kane, and after floating sixteen mouths and 1,200 miles, was brought to New Lon? don, purchased by our Government, and, amid the miuglucl masio of ''Hail Bri? tannia'' and "Hail Columbia," was re tnrued to the dominion of ?oen Vic? toria. Capt. Hall made two successful expe? dition before he engagod iu this lost and fatal one. Ou the 29th of May, 18G0, ho sot snil from New London, to tiud, if possible, aome survivors of Sir John Franklin's party, whom he hoped might still be living on the shores of that open Polar Sou which Morton, Kane's trusty lieutenant in June, 1854, saw boating at his feet with the steady pulsation and regular swell of a mea? sureless ocean. In July, 180M, be suited again, and from both expeditions ro turnod safely, proving himself an expe? rienced traveler for those Arctic regions, ns well an an acute and careful observer of their wonderful phenomena. Ho will return no more. Those fatal fuscinn "tions of Polar ! lcry and adventure have lured bim iu... tho foot-stops of his unfortunate predecessors.

A DisoaACEVtTj Riot?Three Uer maks Wounded.?Oa Sunday afteruoou a disgraceful riot occurred near the city limits, in which sevoral white men were Beriously hurt. The particulars of tho affray, as nearly as can bo ascertained from an eye-witness, arc as follows: About 5 o'clock a party of eh/ht or nine Germans were playing cards and nine? pins in the store of Sir. August Tionekeu, immediately above the three-mile house. At that hour a colored man, evidently drunk, entere"! the store, and iu a very boisterous manner jostled against several of the party. Upon being remonstrated with, he rubbed from the store in a rude manner, knocking over the proprietor, and Bwearing vengeance upon the heads of the ontiro parly. \Xo more was thought of the occurrence until the party arose to return to the city. They were mot at tho door by a crowd of about seventy-five oolored men, armed with sticks, clubs and brick-bats, and who forthwith attacked tho party of Germans. The brick-batting wan kept up until the party reached Chinquapin Line, and took ah niter in tho omnibus. Turee of the Germans, Richard Graver, A D. Heucken and Henry Henckeu. wore cut on tho head by bricks or clubs, and were taken homo badly wounded. Their wounds were dressed by Dr. O. L. Mover, who was called in for the purpose, tho attacking parly was led by the drunken negro who litBt entered the store, and was Yory violent and offensive. None of them were recognized, and consequently no arrests have been made.
