Mb- Editor: Id your last paper, I promised to give other reaqops.wbj I shbald opt vote for N-ieh,' and with my view 6f tue ease. I can not for a mo mout believe that any property-holder, , tux-payer or honest Conservative can. I Nash voted to exteud the limits of the oity of Colambiu, ordering a now elec? tion before tbe term of office of Johu McKenzie and bis council expired. Tbe oity limits were extendud aud tbe old honest, trustworthy and economi? cal council wero ejected. Then fol lowed the Act to tax personal as wull as real property. Nash voted for this bit]. Next followed tbe Act to impose taxes on business, occupations and professiouc. Nash voted yea ou tbis. Then followed the bill to issue tnoru bonds, and increase tho debt of the city to 0(500,000, as I have shown, aud Nash voted jea on that qaestiuu. After that, Nash voted to empower the Mayor uud Aldermen of thu city of Columbia to levy a Rpecial tax ou all real aud personal property, to pay tile interest ou the city bonds, aud the vote of Nash is recorded for that, too. Now, Mr. Editor, let me see how this has eflVcted tho interest of tho proper? ty-holders of Columbia. First, ut the beginning there was ouly 10 mills levied ou real est.ite, aud the value thereof !'? the oily limits lining about 33,500,000, realized about $35,000, aud this and licenses for liquor dealers, market aud public exhibitions was the entire source of income of the city. Now thero is oolleoted 10 mills on all real aud personal property, and 8 mills ou real und personal properly to pay interest ou lho bonds, or 18 mills, which, uu a valuation of uhotit. 36 000.000, brings iu $108,000, against $35,000 former taxation; and whit have wa lor it? Ouly u city hall in? complete; an exhausted treasury; dis? credit destroyed; city officials unpaid; city doubt doubled, for it is tbis day increased over $100,000 above thu limit placed by the Legislature; tbo city government carried ou by orders re? ceivable for next year's taxes, (which are worthless,) and the moneys collect? ed from an over-taxed people tquuu dercd aud gone' where the woodbine twiueth, tho people having received actually nothing for the increased debt and the increased taxation. N iw Nash is responsible for this, for ho voted for and advocated these measures, which have ut this day ruined our fair city. Theo the onerous licenses were im? posed by the vote of Nash, aud kept upon au impoverished people strug? gling to keep afloat through all their troubles. N.ish, by his vote, ban sown the seed which has brought ubout these deplorable results;"'uud uow, when ho has sown the wind, ho must, reap tho whirlwind, by merited defeat. But this is uot all, Mr. E liter; a blight has been ou everything which the hand of Nash has touched, except' inn only his own prosperity, and tliat bus increased wonderfully ou a salary of $6(10 per year for tho past six years. Uis gains have been like the widow's cruise, never failing and ever respon? sive to his wishes. The blight is ou the penitentiary uud on the Eunatio Asylum; the suffering ou the inmates and the merchants who were so credu? lous as to believe tho promises of Nash laud his associates. Another curse on j the city has resulted from the vote of Nash. I moan tho water works con? tract, iucroasiug the animal taxation I to a large umont, and recieving no fair equivalent therefor. Tho people, j therefore, of the County and the city have nothing to thank him for. Every act has been to their injury, und not the leust has been to keep tbe races apart for his own ends and for his own I purposes. The defeat of Nash de? stroys his influence; therefore, iu no case, should he recutve tho support of any tax-payer or property owner. 1 have scanned bis public course care? fully and without prejudice, and (iu humming up the whole result, ? cannot vote fur Nash. I ANOTHER CONSERVATIVE. Starting a Newspaper?A Little KXPEItlKN?U WITH a 11 UNO It V LlTTLE Daily.?The Peoria, Illinois, Review is to be sold ut Slier ill's sale to satisfy a mortgage. We are under obligations to a Peons friend for promptly ail vis? ing us of tbis opportunity to regain an interest in that excellent paper, cheap, but wo don't want any. We have loved tho Review; so did the gods; hence il bus died young, loss than u year and a half old. It marked au era iu our jonrnnlistic career which we love to ponder over, with tours. It was the only daily paper we helped to start. It precious Boon got thu start of everybody connected with it. We had the littlo twilight twinkler for nearly a quarter of a year. Then it had us the rost of the time. The in? satiable maw that pretty deceitful littlo sheet, in its nobby, metropolitan dress of minion and nonpareil, iiad for cou? pons; the wild, uugoverned appetite it had for shekels; the excellent voice it hud, which it retained to the last, for louis d'ors; tbo avidity with which it reached out for base bullion, and tho equal avidity with which it didn't get any! Snob a fearful old inflltionist it was on tho debtor side; such a terrible coutruationist it was on the credit side! We hope it will sell well. We hone the mortgage will bo satisfied. If it is, it will be the first thing tho lit vieio over satisfied. We hope some good man will buy it and run u successfully, though we doubt if it can bo made lo ilo belter than it did under Mr. Colli u berry's excellent uud careful manage? ment. But. with all due regard and teuder feeling for thu joyful of our earliest love and highest aspiration:, we do not wish auy more Of the trint, if you please.

The Bios Man in Europe.?If it be true, nn reported, that Austria has eon eluded a tfeaty of oommeroe with Roumania without unking the consent of the Porte, the importance of the act oaa scarcely tie over estimated. It is neither less nor more tb>in a recog? nition of tbe disintegration of the Ottoman Empire in Europe. Austria hu9 not taken tbe step alouc, but with tbo coucutrunce of her two powerful neighbors, who will noon do whut Austria has done, thus recognizing and sauutiooing the not. Tho attitude of the three Empires, all-powerful iu Central und Bistern Europe, will de? termine the future relations, not only of Moldavia and Wallnchiu, but of Servin also, to the Ottomau Empire. If these provinces may couclude treaties of commerce without tho con? sent of their nominal Suzerain, it is difficult to see what they may uot do. They already possess legislative unto I uomy, a constitution, k sovereign of their own choosing, aud a cabinet re-j sponsible to the Legislature. They i manage their owu budgets, maintaiu 1 an army, the strength of which they themselves determine. They contract1 their own loans an 1 levy their own taxes. The Porte reserved only the right id investiture upon the ucco.ssiou of the sovereign, and refused them the privileg > of uiiiiltuiiiiug an accredited representative abroad. This last pri? vation was, however, compensated for by tb" permission to maintain a politi j ual agent at tho Court of Vieuua. Not a shred of sovereignty now remains lo tbo Porte i xjept the right of investi? ture, which uin-muts to just uothmg. Turkey iu Europe bus nu urea of 207,001) square miles uud a population of 15,500,000. The virtual sevorauee of Moldavia aud Wallachia from the empire detaches 45,000 square miles and a population of il.801.OUO. Servia, which will speedily follow the example of the two Danubian principalities, will carry clT 12,000 square miles more, with a population of 1,00S.000. This reduces the empire by 57,600 square miles, and by nearly 5.0IJ?.000 of souls. And what is m ist siguiticaut, tbo pro? vinces whose virtual defection is thus recoguiz-d by .Austria.

They are proud of their lineage und etil them? selves to this day "ltim iiii" and their ootiutry "it mmania." Their language, no twit list and i ng the occupation of their etinntry by Bulgarians, Goths aud other barbarians, still shows ti ground-work and frame-work of Latin. It is possible that this action may foro simdow the ultimate solutiou of the Eisteru question. ltonmuuia may form a nucleus to which Bulgaria, Ru melia, Albania, Bosnia and Servi i may attach themselves out) by one is th-y detach themselves from Starnboul. There might -thus grow up by degrees a natiou Christian iu chiracter uud progressive iu policy, whose exist cue.i tho great powers would rceogui/. But it'seems too much to hope for tins. England aud Franae, however unwil? ling, will hud themselves compelled to acquiesce iu a palpable violation of the treaty of Paris aud the convention of 1858, ami stand by in silence while tho threo umpires encourage the principalities to trample on tbe lien.in of 1861. Death or Jons Laird ?The death of J diu L-iird, the celebrated bllip builder, occurred on Thursday. He was born at Greeunck, Scotland, in 1805, and was a brother of the African explorer, Macgregor Liird, who tirst introduced into Africa steam naviga? tion. Ho was generally uud widely ? kuowu as i be head of tho celebrated j firm of sbip-builders, Laird, Sons ,v Co., of Birkeuhuad, in which business be was actively eugaged for neatly forty jears. As early us the ycir 1820 ho began to build iron vessels, but so groat was the prejudice against this class of vessels that it was necessary to send one tu sea several tlines before the public c ?nid by induced to accept them as sea worthy. Mr. Liird's tirm soon achieved a great reputation and became very wealthy. In l?til, the year of his retirement irom the ship building linn, he was elected to the llritish Parliament, in tbo interest of the tories or conservative party, beiug the tirst member to take a seat as rep? resentative of the growing town of Birkntihoad. During the late war in tho Uuiteil States his tirm became ex? ceedingly unpopular, owing to the alleged manner of deception employed to get the steam-ram Alabama <dl the i ways and out into the English Channel without the knowledge of the olli rials of the British Government. He was j called to account severely iu tho House j of Commons ami charged with having 'allowed his love of money to overcome Ibis patriotism and the obedience he had sworn to observe as a subject to tho laws of Great Britain. He replied I on ouo occasion very curtly, refusing I to be catechised for tbo nets of u tirm over which he no longer bad control, and pointed out tbat thousands ot others, while hiding their beads within ; the folds of the Union-jack, were, reck j ltssly sidling lit defiance all interna j tioniil law, und all honor was sunk in I tho endeavor to become neb on tho 'disasters of n friendly people.

Good Indians.?A significant letter from General Onater was quoted by Mr. William Welsh, of Philadelphia, oa a lute occasion in the Episcopal Convention at New York. Mr. Welsh bus been long known as an advocate of the policy of civilizing as well as Christianizing the Indians, bat, like bis comradoa in the Indian Commis* sion, bus met much opposition from the whites. But Gen. Ouster's testi? mony will be accepted even by those who snspect tbe Indian Commission of too Kauguine feeling, and bo gives hearty evidence in proof of tbe fact which we have long upheld, that tbo Indian is noithcr "a red devil" nor a "problem," infernal or otherwise, but only a man, very like ourselves, more easily roused to a-.-ger, perhaps, by foul treatment, nr .i more easily con? ciliated by fair dealing and kindness. The S^ntee guides in the Black H?ls expedition were subjected to a strict i test. Guu. Custer uot ouly commends [ them as soldiers, but emphatically as men, "free from the prevailing vices of young men," and bo "doubts whether a liko number of white men of tbe same age could be collected in any community of the sumo size whose moral bearing would excel if equal theirs." General Custer tells of tbe singing of old familiar hymns ut night? fall iu the wilderness by th.se men, '?who but a few years ngo roamed over the country in u statu of barbarous wildness." - ? ??
