COLUMBIA. S. C. Tuesiay Morning, March 16,1875. The Address for the Removal of tit* Treanurtr. The General Assembly is again at its post, prepared by several days' rest to enter apon the consideration of the uddreBS for the removal of the Stute Treasurer. It is to be hoped that all parties will oom? to this work with clean bauds and houest purpose. We hive recognized that there was a etrong showing of irregularity ngainst this officer, and that so far he has failed to answer in a satisfactory way. But the proceedings have now taken a shape which makes it practicable for him to use the amplest powers for his vindication. He has able counsel, the Tight-to produce records, books and vouchers of all the publio offices; in short, he has the opportunity to show the transactions of his bureau and to explain his own conduct in its manage? ment, ^ft the oharges are frivolous, at j can be made to appear. If they are grave, but the Treasurer innooent of them, thatoan be abundantly proven. Some objection, wo observe, has been expressed against the limit of time fixed upon by the Speoial Joint Com? mittee. If that objection should be insisted upon, if nine hours should not be found sufficient for the argu? ments of his counsel, and the produo -41 on of Alf, necessary and pertinent tes? timony in hie behalf, the timo enght to be extended. .As a man, the Trea? surer is entitled to a full and fair can passing of his oase; as one of the exe active officer* of the State, haeaoaloY not be denied any fair means to estab? lish the integrity and dignity of his part of the Administration. This is a publio matter, in whioh no private feelings or personal interests should enter. Every man charged with any responsibility in connection with it should approach it in a judicial epirit, free from accusation, and be as ready and willing to allow justice to the party arraigned as to demand it for the State The argument of our contemporary, of this city, that, because frauds have been oharged by the committee against the Treasurer, and they have not brought in artiolea of impeachment against him, for having been engaged in them, therefore, the present pro? ceeding has no ground upon which to stand, and must fall of its own weight, proves too much. The utmost that can be made of it is, that there is not in the charges aud specifications^ an exact adaptation of punishment ae de? signed to the offence whioh is oharged. But if the ouargas justify impeach? ment, they all the more justify an addresser removal. Upon this point we Urtica that Governor Chamberlain has BUMlantiiilly approved that mode of prooeeding, where he says of it, that it ^s "probably now the only way to bring the whole case to a point where- justice- can be done." The dis? tinction whioh the Union-Herald makes in another place, between the right of the General Assembly to remove an executive officer by a two-thirds vote for au address of removal, the fiaal act of removal, of course, to bo made by the Governor, and the right of the Governor so to remove "on the address of two-tbirds of each House," is one without a difference. It is only the condemnation which is convoyed in the two-tbirds vote of the General As? sembly for removal whioh is potent to effect it, although the final act is to be consummated by the Executive. We notioed very early in this contro? versy, that Treasurer Cardozo meant to have the investigation of the charges against himself discounted as bo much opposition to the State Administra? tion. We saw no necessity for accept? ing this construction then, and we see none now, or in the future, so long as candid sesroh for the troth in the case, a regard for the interests of the State and the observance of the principle of strict justioe towards the Treasurer, shall not be violated or compromised. Looking at the vote which was given for the comriHtee to draw ap the: ad? dress, ws hate, a right to aay, that altbongh it courted some opposition to the Goverapry it at ths saVe time inoluded alln^rtrength; It embraced the best men in both Houses and of both parties?the very men who stand a wall of defenoeaud protection around him. His redent set in placing himself so unreservedly by the aide of the Treasurer, Will induce the Conserva? tive elements of ths General Assembly to review this whole matter most care? fully an'd to weigh it dispassionately. They will Hirten to the argnmoots of the eminent counsel who are to ap? pear for the #rsusnretf )H.b every pro? per respect, and they will give its Jost I weight to every particle of evidenoe whioh may be presented ia his behalf. Tbey will be more than pleased to ac? quit, if grounds are shown upon which tbey may do it. They will adhere to tbe positiou already taken, if, after fall consideration, tbey shall conceive it to be their duty. But it must not be un? derstood, and no one has the right so . to understand, that a vote for tbe ad? dress, or a vote of want of confidence in the Treasurer, is also a vote of want of confidence in the Executive. It is morally certain that such vote upon tbe address, if it correspond to the vote cast for the committee to frame it, will not be in pursuauce of u "conspi? racy to knock down one of tbe strong? est pillars of the preseut reform ad? ministration." As things go on, bow ever, if developments of this kind should be made, if, contrary to the ex? pectations we now express, the reform policy of the Governor should appear to be put in peril by a factious and oorropt opposition gathering head ander a false guise, then all the best elements of tbe State of ?11 parties and colors should rally to his support and save the system which is now our best hope and chief reliance. In that event, tho interest of self-preservation will bo strenger than the correction of an evil which will appear small iu com? panion with it. We are free to say tbat we have eeen no such signals in the present investigation. An Independent Movement. Wo have not yet seen a full report of tbe action of ? the convention which met in Cleveland, Ohio, on tho 11th instant. Its purpose was to take ini? tial steps to organize a new financial and political departure upou the "Basis of Union" whioh was promul? gated from Indianapolis on November 25th, and which calls for: "A mouetary system based upou the faith and resources of the nation iu .harmony with the genius of tbe Go? vernment and adapted to the demands of legitimate business. To this end the circulating notes of all national and State banks, as well as all local currency, should be withdrawn from circulation, and a paper monoy issued by the Government directly to the people, without the intervention of any system of banking corporations, which money shall be a legal tender iu pay? ment of all debts, publio and private, duties ou imports included. This money to be interchangeable, at the option of the holders, with registered Government bonds, bearing a rate of interest not exceeding 3.G5 per cent, per annum." It appears to aim at tbe founding of a national Greenback Party as tho panacea for our ills, and to unite all the reformatory elements in the two great national parties against tbem both, under the name of the National Independent party. Amongst others who have responded to tbe call of tho Executive Committee aud given their views of the mo7emeut is Col. D. Wyatt Aikeu, of Cokesbury, aud known favorably iu tbe North west as one of tbo Executive Committee of the National Grango. We give au ex? tract or two from bis letter, whioh we find iu tho Indianapolis Sun, of tho Cth instant, lie says: "Why it was that the North ever submitted to tho national bank law, bos always been au cuigma to mo. Tbe South hud no vuic<* in tbo enact? ment. The South is peculiarly agri? cultural, and yet the best gilt-edged agricultural paper cannot secure a loan from uny nutioual bank in tbo South. This pruc'.iee, so averse to tbe 'good of all tbe people,' is of itself sufficient to condemu this low, even if it bad iu its conception any feature to commend it. Before tbe war, my own little Statu bad a banking capital of $30, 000,000. aud with the bills of the Bank of tbo State of South Carolina iu 1859 and 1860, I paid hotel bills in Boston, Cincinnati uud New Orleans without a discount. To-day, we have a banking capital of barely $5,000,000, which is almost entirely confined to specula? tion, and is frequently so scarce tbat there is not money enough in the country to move our crops. Only last December, my own individual crop lay bore on the market nntil money could be brought from New York with whioh to purchase it. Now, to my mind, these faots alone prove in oonteetably, that we cannot think of 'specie basis,' but must have oheaper enrrency. I can oonoeive of no better method of procuring snob a oorrenoy than by advocating the policy as set forth in your 'Basis of Union.'" The suggestion at the close of the next extract is a good one. If adopted, it wonld go far towards restoring tbe Union as it was: "We must punish corruption; we must destroy monopolies; we must cheapen money; we must multiply tbe facilities for transportation; we must curb party spirit; we mast destroy sec? tional prejudices; we must purify tbe press; we must restrain tbe centralizing tendency of tbe Executive and legisla? tive branches of our Government; we must oreate a more correctly informed publie opinion, by edifying the masses; end we must inform the world, and prove the truthfulness of the informa? tion, that there Is one people able and Willing and determined to govern themselves. Until all this la done, we cannot re-establish oar former credit, both at home and abroad, and without this we cannot be a thriving people. The sorest way to effect this end, in my judgment, (please pardon the pre sumption,) woaid be, build np a peo? ple's party, upon whose banner wonld be insoribed two names in.lhe cam? paign of 1870?one from too North sod one from the So nth." Louisville Courier 3 ovunallsms .? "The Christian Union stakes its life," says an exchange, "upon Mr. Bench? er's inuocecoe." Then it is about timo for parties wiehing tn atteud the funeral of the Christian Union to begin to grease their boots for the occasion. They say that the Rev. Mr. Ham? mond, the great revivalist, who went to California some time since to re? deem the people of that Slate from the wrath to com-, has since made a for? tune by speculating iu stocks, and has quit preaching. Brother Hammond is persuaded, we presume, that, an a rich man, it will be about as bard for him to get to Heaven as it would be for a needle to go through the eye of a camel, and that be will have as much as he can do to Bave bis own soul with? out fooling away his time in trying to save other people's. The New York Commercial Adver? tiser, speaking of the illegality of min? ing operations in'the Black lid's, eaya "General Sheridan will not be long in setting matters to right " Very likely, if any butchering is called for; but before Sheridan goes to the Black Hills and runs the risk of a campaign, would it not be better for bim to give the publio that "bill of particulars" about the -1,000 murders?political murders?in Louisiana? It would bo sad to have Sheridan go dowu to his lonely grave with a lie on his bead. The Chicago Inter-Ocean quotes from a private letter from a Northern "gentleman" at Helena, Ark.: "Times are simply terrible here; all confidence is destroyed* animosities, reveugeful nesB and persecution prevalent every? where; uo safety, no justice, no sympa? thy for any one born North of Mason andlDixon's line." Terrible times in? deed! And the worst of it is, they won't give this "gentleman" a chance, it would seem, to steal money enough to pay his way to a place of safety! The Government is under a solemn pledge to the Indians to keep all miners off their reservation among the Black Hills; and yet six or eight hun? dred white men are now digging gold among those reserved oolorml emi? nences, and laughing consumedly at the idea that tho Government lias a sufficient military force to drive them out and guard the Louieiaua Legisla? ture at the same time. We heartily deprecate the use of violent language, but we must say, nevertheless, that these miners are treating the Uuited States Government aud its army in a mauuer that is disingenuous, not to say cowardly. The ice gorge on the Delaware must be a beautiful, although a terrible sight, and tho people at Port Jervis are watcbiug it with feverish anxiety. A correspondent from that town writes that its formation is very irregular. Iu some places great blocks of ice have evideutly become firmly planted iu tho bed of the river, and these have served as piers from one to auolher, of whioh arches have formed, several feet above the water, up bearing the great dome shaped mass. Since the ice has settled deeper into tho bed of the river, the locality of these arches is marked by great hummocks on the surfuco of the glacier. It is very dan? gerous walking on the glacier, since the deep covering of suow hides from view the many rifts and holes betwteu tho cakes of ice, some of which ex teud twenty feet or more downward. The surface is very irregular, being intersected iu every direction by sharp ridges with deep depressions between them, in the bottom of which snriace water has collected iu considerable quantities. The bed of the river is full of rocks and shoals, aud the e have served ui Shoulders to hold tho ico more lirnily, as the pressure from above drives it down. Science is en? deavoring to avert the calamity to the peaceful town that appears so inevita? ble. Oa Wednesday experiments were made with glycerine and giant powder, and the main muss, n block 100 feet square, was blown out and sent float? ing down the river, amid the enthusi? asm of the spectators. Pieces of solid ioe twelve inches thiok were thrown moro than 100 feot into the air by the explosion. Strenuous efforts aro being made to protoct the suspension bridge from harm, great iron piers being built in front of it to enable it to with? stand the terriblo pressure it must endure. Soienoe, however, will find a dangerous antagonist in nature, and it is sad to reflect npon the loss of pro? perty, and perhaps life, that must reBult from the eeverity of the past winter. John Mitchell.?Mitchell has again contested the representation of Tip perary. This time he has a Conserva? tives opponent, and though folly one third of the oonotitueuoy, including the rioh tradeamen and the Oatbolio elergy, absented themselves from the polls, Mitchell is thought to bave ae cured a majority of about 1,000 votes. It ia probable that Mr. Moore, the Conservative, will be deolared elected by the House of Commons. The Home Rulers will thus bave lost one of the moat important seats in Ireland, through Mr. Mitchell'* very ill-advised candidaoy. A Missouri woman lived twente-three years with three pins roving through her wasted frame. Th? ADJUSTMENT OF THE DlFFIOUIi tics in thk Charleston Cotton Mae ket ?After nearly foot days' suspen sion of tho usual business in ear chief staple, owing to disagreements be tween the buyers and sellers, tbe points of difference were . arranged about midday on Saturday last, after a full interchange of views ou botb sides. Tbe matters at issuo have been care? fully considered and fairly und fully discussed, and tbe result can hardly be otherwise than satisfactory not only to tbe great body of our own cottou dealers, but to our customer* in tbe in? terior as well us in Europe aud ut the North. The oireful scrutiny which will be given to the weighing, whilu it may Lot prove itny more successful in arriving at what the weight of cottou may be wbeu delivered across the j Atlantic or elsewhere tbau under tbe' old system, will at least show that every possible eudeavor has been made to deal fairly with our customers. The following were the results arrived at: Until tbe 31st of August next, or the end of the old crop year, cotton will be sold und delivered in this mar? ket an heretofore. From aud after the first of September, 1873. or tbe begiu ning of the new crop your, cottou wiil be sold by delivery weight, when the buyer nhsll have the privilege of im? mediately reweighiug it with the beam scale, and should any difference occur in reference to tbe weight be? tween tbe sworn weigher aud tbe weigher of tbe hover, tbat difference shall be submitted at once to a third weigher, whose decision shall be final. The adoption of these rules by our cotton dealers will, it is believed, muke tbe practice iu the market uearly perfect, aud give a further impetus to the alrendy greatly increasing business at this port. I Charleston 2>eics and Courier. Tbe Legislature of North Carolina having recently passed a law to amend the charter of the city uf Wilmington, wbicli law re-organized the wards of the city and required a registration of voters iu the respective election pre? cincts, thereby preventing illegal vot? ing, and giving to the tax payers of tbo oity a voice in the election of of? ficers of the municipal government, now in tbe control of the carpet-bag? gers, the latter petitioned Judge Bond, of the United State? Conrt, for a writ of iujunolion restraining the registrars and poll-holders from registering voters or holding an election under the amend? ed ehsrter. The petition ulleged seve? ral frivolous objections to the new charter und against the registration law, which tbe petitioners intimated would lead to violence if enforced. Judge Bond refused to grunt the iu juuetion?says he knows of no case where a court of equity baa interfered by injunction to prevent au election upon general gronuds of fear commou to ull the citizeus, eveu if tho Uw under which it was about to be beld was clearly unconstitutional. Ii tbe elec? tion be illegal, a writ of quo warranto is open to them. If it be legal, aud anybody bo deprived of rights under the fifteenth or fourteenth amendments to the Constitution, bis court is open, and tbe complainants uud others may cause proceedings under laws of Con? gress. Tbo decision gives great satis? faction to the people of Wilmington. Lady Mordaunt Guilty ?The cable has already announced that tbe jury in the great English matrimonial seusution?the Mordauut divorce case ?has rendered a verdict, finding Lady Mordaunt guilty of adultery.* It will bo remembered that nu effort was made to prevent Sir Charles Mordaunt obtaining a divorce, on tho ground of hin wife's insanity, iu order to shut out a child he bad good reason to believe illegitimate from succession to tbe Mordaunt title and estates, ho per sisteutly sought legal redress, und bus at length triumphed. The appearance ! of the heir presumptive to the Eug lisb throne in the case gave the scan? dal unusual interest for tho people, as it seemed likely at one period that tho Prince of Wules would be joined as co-respoudeut. This expectation was, however, defeated by the Princo ap? pearing as a witness aud swearing positively that, though bo had visited tbe lady very frequently, their rela? tions bad never gouo beyond tbe bounds of friendship. Tbo verdict aguiust Lady Mordaunt is a eovoro b.ow to several noble bouses in Eng? land, us bur three sisters?ail remarka? ble for their beauty?arc married to great territorial nobles. ?.-. - .? . New Hampshire.?The clouds which at first bung over the returns from tbis Stute, cleared np in an absolute Demo? cratic victory. Two out of tbo three Congressmen the Democrats have, and the Republican candidate for Governor fails of an electiou by tho people, and has to look to the Legislature. We may well suppose tbat tbe office? holders made the election a life and death struggle. It was everything to them; while there was no very extra? ordinary personal interest to bring oat tbe Democratic strength. Then the anti-liquor party whioh had sloughed off from tbe Republicans last year, had found out that they could make little headway without standing by tbe Republican party, wbioh was the place of refuge for all monstrous isms and fanatisisms of the land. They returned meekly bsok to their natural alliance, and, as thoy very nearly held the balanoo of power, they wore felt in their hostility to the Democrats.

Quick Work ?Ou Sunday night, the gauge of the North Carolina Rail? road, for ninety miles, was ohanged between 11 o'clock and day-light, to correspond with the gauge of the Atlanta Air Line. This opens a through line from New Orleans to New York; no change of oars between New Orleans and Riobmond. The Railroads? Acotdkkt?Deten? tion.?A freight and wood train col? lided, on the Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroad, yesterday; bot as both were running slowly, only little damage was done. Two of the em? ployees were slightly* hurt. It is thought the track will be oleared in timo for this morning's trains to pass. The passenger train over the Wilming? ton, Columbia and Augusta Railroad did not arrive until nearly 13 o'oloek, last night. The cause of the deten? tion was the partial undermining of a trestle, about nine miles below Colum? bia, from a broken mill-dam. When the water went down, tho trestle waa repaired and the train passed over safely. Feabctui Storm ?We learn tbat a fearful wind etorm, accompanied by hail, ocenrred in tbe Mill Creek neigh? borhood, yesterday afternoon. Tbe dwelling of Mr. Padgett, on tbe Wil? mington, Colombia and Augasta Bail road, aboat nine mil's below Colum? bia, was blown down, bat fortunately nooe of the inmates were injured. Tho mill-bouse, about fifty yards from the dwelling, was blown into tbe pond aud a colored man bad bis ankle broken. A wagon and team were also blown into tbe pond* and two of tbe ani? mals drowned. The cotton screw was also blown down. Wo could hear of no further damage, although, from tho accounts of tho tremoudoas force of tho gale, there must have beeu great destruction in its pathway. Trees were twisted and torn up by tbe roots, while others were cut down as though with an axe. Mr. Padgett is truly un? fortunate, as it is only about two years siuce his mill was destroyed by fire. He is a hard-working man. Pikenixiana.?You cannot equeeae happiness out of avarice. You ehonld forgive many things ia others, but nothing iu yourself.
