There has been .1 frightful loss of life on both sides the Russians suffering most severely. According to Russian reports received to Friday, 239 wounded officers and 9,482 men have passed through the hospitals since September 7. The number of killed is about 3,000. The total lost is about 300 officers and 12,500. I men. The Chinese, the carpet-1 a ;gers who 1 have invaded California, are to be ex- 1 terminated if the working men of the Pacific coast are able to do it. Meetings 1 have been held by the unemployed laborers who ascribe their lack of employment to the Mongolian and the sooner * the two races settle the dispute the better for the progress of civilization in the West. The Chinese companies in San Francisco, under whose protection most of the Chinese have been imported, have written home advising no more emigration lor the present, as they dont feel satisfied of the safety of the pig tails while so many white men are idle for want ox work. 44^^ The New York Hen Id has received a dispatch from its African explorer and correspondent, Henry M. Stanley. He had reached the western coast of Africa, having had a fearful journey, enduring great privations, fighting his way through and losing a large number of his men, He has solved one of the African problems, having proved by actual exploration that the Lualaba river and the Congo are identical. His journey through Africa was o e of the* most ]>erilous and heroic on record. The last of his white assistants, Francis Pocoek. an Englishman, was swept over the falls of the Massassa on the 3d of June last. His faithful companion, Kalulu, was also lost. The political campaign iu Ohio is a puzzle this year. According to all accounts there is au unusual apathy among the voters of both the old parties, and there is no enthusiasm for the candidates upon either State ticket. The workingmen's movement, which at one time ? r\r\c-'.fvrrr* l*Ari>n in tkn I pnjUUSCU IV krj u mivu vaiv/ canvass, has already split into two opposing factions, and thus far it is impossible to form an estimate asj to how the new issues that have arisen since the last 1 election may change the relative strength 1 of parties, when Hayes had a majority of ' 7516 in a total vote of65S,649. At pros- ' ent the main interest in the canvass centres upon the possession of the Legislature, for upon it will devolve the duty ' of electing a United States Senator for ' six years in place of Stanley Matthews, i whose term will expire in 1879. In Mas- i sachusetts the canvass is without any 1 enthusiasm and the prospect is that a 1 very light vote will be cast. I i Unless the French character has great- ( changed within^thc las' five years, there , will be a violent explosion in France ere ( long, in consequence of the course of the j government. .President MacMahon is . establishing the reign of despotism with- j a high hand. Gambetta has had a star j chamber trial, and for allowing the | printing of his speech, which was char , acterized by great moderation and by , true patriotism, he was convicted in his j turn vviiuvuiuv/u vu imvv j months imprisonment and to pay a fine ( of two thousand francs. He has appeal- | el, but is threatened now with j disfranchisement of all the rights of , citizen-hip for five years. This is intcn- , ded to prevent his taking any part in . public affairs. The Kepublicans in j France, with Gambetta at their head, ( have borne themselves with moderation ^ in these trying circumstances, and should , they succeed in electing an increased , majority of Deputies, will be able .to thwart the designs of the Imperialists, for the present at least. But even . in France, should despotism triumph, it can be but for a short time. It is too late , in the day. Our Advantages for Truck Farming*. 1 < Now that South Carolina can no longer 1 . ' -,v be called the prostrate state, and taxation has been brought dowu to an equitable ' basis, it would seeui to be a favoiablc ;! time to call the attention of our Northern friends to the advantages offered settlers I nt this pointy particularly to such as pro ! pose to give their attention to the j' cultivation of fruits and vegetables. The fact is that the territory lying ; 1 about and around Port Koyal Ilarbor has j * no rival in the Uiiitad tatcs, and never ! 1 can have, considered as a shipping ix>rt ! ( . . to New York and other northern cities; j ' and undoubtedly the further lapse qf a!( few j*ears will bring the cities of the northeast aluiOst at our doors by the com- j ' . pietion of an air line trunk railroad, j{ having Port Poyal as it objective Allan- j ' tic terminus. ! We propose to point out some of the | 1 advantages offered to such parties as J ; may decide to locate in this vicinity, with ' the above mentioned objects in view. 1 Premising that everything can be! grown here that can be crown north of j t*3: frost-hue :o Fv?rid~. *\ 1. ? vt: u':.rf ,^-a tv.nirst sight that our geographical position s^reatly in our favor as computed with trorc*southern points. Perishable nier handize leaving here hy steamer will, incidents excepted, be placed upon the j New fork market safely and regularly j >n the fourth day after the day of ship- : incut. Compare this with the five, six i >r seven days of transportation inseparable j from all Florida produce and it appears i that the average condition of such si ij.ments hence wiii be found much superior an delivery. This is the vital point, ?ince want of good condition is fatal to values. In addition to steamer facilities wc have daily rail communication with the interior, and it only needs that a speedy system of.transportation for pciishable stuff by mail and passenger trains be organ1 zed on a reasonable scale of charges to give producers an ample outlet in all directions. Another advantage is that the season here, in consequence of the modifying influence of the immense bodies of saltwater interlacing these islands in all directions, is some two weeks earlier than that at Charleston; and for this reason early produce from this point will always command the cream of prices for 8. C. products. Possibly some persons wili doubt the correctness of this statement, but it will only be necessary to remind such that the orange tree under proper cultivation thrives wonderfully hereabouts, and will unquestionably soon be made a leading object of cultivation. The saltncss of the air. and the constant absorption of cold by the creeks, inlets, bays and entrances whenever Jack Frost descends upon us, olfers the only explanation of our exceptional Sea Island climate. Further advantages are to be found in the superior postal and telegraphic facilities enjoyed at this point: in the cheap method of transportation by water replacing as it docs that by carts joltiug over "ough j-nd dusty roads; and in the certainty that, whatever may betide other localities, a great and ccrtaiu future awaits those who at this early day ? 4 *\%% vkAAM *hi^ rfPAUnniT locale Inuiusuives iit UI iicai mis commercial centre. \\ hat?bettcf invest ineut for one s children than a few acres of well-chosen land at a point carrying such possibilities, even if temporarily unproductive ? ?. . . - .. - ^ c The reception of the President and his party by the Governor of Georgia was one of the most hearty and enthusiastic extended to Mr. ILiyes on his late remaarltble trip through the South. Gov. Colquitt's speech of welcome was received with great applause by the larsrceoncoursr gathered to do htmor to the President. The Governor said : "Mr. President?In behalf of the peo pie of Georgia I bid you and your companions, the gentlemen and ladies present, a cordial welcome. "We arc in the habit of opening our hearts and our gates to strangers who may come among us from beyoud our borders, and to us the virtue of hospitality is its own exreeding great reward. Under any circumstances, the hospitality, of which, we trust Georgians may justly boast* would make the President of the United States cordially welcome upon our soil. But you, sir, come into our midst not a\ President only. The great interest.over which you preside, the stupendouspower which you wield as a Chief Mag istrare, the dignity with which your name is invested by tliut power-thcsc are jot the soie ideas which move us in this greeting to-day. But most prominent in our minds, higher, greater than every >thcr distinction, is the character which ;ou illustrate, as tlie peace-maker be:ween brethcrn estranged. It is enough :o fi'l the measure of the loftiest imbition to remove fear and suspense from the hearts of twelve millions ol people, your fellow-citizens, and restore to thorn a sen ? O'" repose and security mder your administration. If the genius which brought together forty Millions of people in a fearful and unhappy conflict excited the attention of he whole world, the moral purpose, the Inn will of the fortunate magistrate who is first to control and calm the spiiit which raised this mighty conflict, will it'met the admiration an 1 plaudits of ill men, wherever goo I will among men is known. IIow strange, how passing strange, that men, brethren of the same political heritage, can differ or doubt as :o the beneficent effect of so holy an undertaking. We invite you Mr. Prcsi lent, to the closest scrutiny. We arc no\ mistaken, we do not deceive ourselves md we don't intend to deceive other.-. W hen we say we are for peace and union we mean good government?we mean to give a helping hand to any and to all who shall aid in the establishment of joniitutioual government and in the res toration of fraternity between the States. The great moving cause of tjiese hearty Ieuionstrations which have greeted you since you reached Southern soil is to be found in the generous confidence with which you believe what we say, and rotir magnanimous trust which will not xa't cringing and servile guarantees. Differ though we may in party, without, ihinking of the complications of the past j >r caring for them, we can a-sure you of the sympathy and support of this goo i )ld commonwealth in your every effort to restore peace and - good will between j citizens, people and States. "Again, sir, let me assure vou of the j iov which your presence here gives us, and utr urgent desire to make your visit and that of your companions pleasant while rou stay with us. In this spirit, and in the name of the people, I welcome you \nd your noble wife, and these gentle l?id?cs and honored gentlemen to the hos- I pitality of the people of Georgia. ' * ? Gen. McClcMan !ps been nmiinr.fcl lor Governor of New .It r -v b<- ?!io 1\ n- t .. r ?>n i i" =>! ' ? SOLOMONS HANK. A en*re?pondent of the Cincinnati En- j quiver furnishes some more facts regard-' ing the actions of the Columbia ring and i how Hardy Solomon was made use ofj during the campaign of 1S74. Tlio cor- ; respondent says of Mr. Chamberlain: "Patterson knows enough of Chamber- j Iain's exploits as Attorney-General to ; hang him. At that time Patterson was1 working to secure for Chamberlain the! nomination for ( Governor, and, when the j Convention met to make the nomination ! he was the lobbyist. Every vote given i in that Convention for Chamberlain was J paid fi>r-in one ease as high as $500 be- I ing paid for one vote. Patterson told ! me this himself. The funds were supplied by Hardy Solomon, the banker of the party, whose bank was to become the depository of the State funds. After Chamberlain became Governor more money was wanted, and Hardy did not have it. He had a small fund of ?200,000 wherewith to pay the interest on the public debt, but this lie could not touch. Finally, however, he allowed himself to bo persuaded upon the guarantee of Chamberlain and Cardozo, and as the campaign became hot, dollar by dollar it was drawn on the checks of Cardozo the Treasurer. Here Hardy made a second mistake; he entered these checks as cash, not as the representatives of it. When the taxes came in, however, Cardozo did not pay tliom over, ana tnc day approached when the interest had to be paid. In vain Solomon appealed to Chamberlain and Cardozo. Then he got mad, and there was a little faceslapping between Cardozo and Solomon, but just the i Chamberlain wants some securities for 840,000 or 850,000 which he had given to Solomon. In fact, the securities were in the wrong place, as Puffer of the State Bank knew. Hardy, however, says: "Ihavc no! got them; i hey are in Charleston as collateral for the money I borrowed for you, and I cannot get theui." The Financial Board mot Chamberlain, tire Comptroller Gen. Dunn, and the Treasurer, Cardozo. The little matter was reconciled and the Treasurer directed to increase the amount of the State ? - ? i i .i ji.i deposits by a iew nunurea inousana uoilars. This done, the securities were restored to the proper place, and tlien the bank suspended, costing tire State | about half of the increased amount of deposit, about ?100,000. Dunn, it must, however, be said, was unaware of the by-play which led to this step. He sup' loosed the bank solvent-, as did almost every one except Chamberlain and Car dozo. The teason why Patterson does not like Chamberlain is that he found out that the latter proposed to take lib scat in the Senate; so he went to work to stir up a hornet's ncit around Chamberlain. In this he succeeded, and Chamberlain saw that his only chance 1 i.v with the Democratic party. lie commenced to wheedle tjiem. They foil into the trap and Chamberlain l>egan to feel eminently respectable. Tlic Lcgi.Jature met in December, 1875, and showed the Conservatives that Chamberlain had no -strength, and to punish him they cleete i Whipper and Moses as Judges. To prevent this Chamberlain had been re-enforced by Mayor Cunningham of Charleston and a ten thousand dollar express package, but it was of no avail. The Mayor took his money homo with him. Chambcrlain*callcd on the Democrats to rally to him. As soon as ho fv.tn I that they did not rally much lie jumped hack again where Wade Hampton found him." There is said to he but one purely American mercantile firm in Valparaiso, most ot the foreign merchants being English French and German. France sends bouts and shoes, hats, furniture, ready-made clothing, jewelry and fancy articles. England sends machinery, agricultural implements, provisions and dry goods. Cargoes of beef and pork, which have been sent from the United States to England, have often been rcshipped to Valparaiso. A few domestic goods from Lowell have been lately introduced and well received. With the exception of railroad rolling stock, American machinery is comparatively unknown. The Philadelphia and Heading llailroad has sent a few cargoes of anthracite coal at a satisfactory profit. It is found much more desirable both for cooking and heating than the inferior bituminous coal mined in Chili. If the United States were to have a reciprocal treaty with Chili similar to those with Canada and the Sandwich islands, a powerful impetus would be given to Trade with that and other South American States, and an opportu. nity for a speed}' development of the immense resources of our Port RByal harbor would be presented. A train on the Illinois Central Railroad near Sandoval was thrown from the track at 3 o'clock Tuesday morning, killing 7 passengers and injuring a number of others. Masked men were seen by the passengers irom the car windows as the moon was shining bright, but after the accident they wee not to be seen. It was smmosed (hat thev intended to plunder and rob tlic passengers, butj were frightened away. c c The loss of the Russian and Roumanian armies in the engagements at Plevna are placed at 2a,000 in killed and wounded. The United States frigate Trenton was recently fired at from one of the forts at Sinyrmn for leaving the port after sunset and before sunrise, contrary to the harbor regulations. *<iy* The Rev. froorgc Hull baptized fnr'y persons by immersion in twenty-seven ininuto in Savannah, and is 80 years old i I hii i hi wll ii ? ?? A lariro meeting of the delegates from ! the counties of Greenville, Spartanburg,; I'nion, and Abbeville was held at Laurens (J. II., on the 3rd inst., to discuss mode of giving Laurens railroad facilities. The claims of various routes were vigorously urg'-d, but tluU from j, Spartanburg to Augusta seemed to be the | favorite. Another meeting will he held i in October, when some decisive action I will probably be taken. A man at Niagara is building a raft of i pine logs, with a house at one end j for the accommodation of cats and dogs that are to make a compulsory voyage over the falls. If the raft goes over smoothly and the cats and does are not j hurt, Hubert White says he wi'l attempt the same perilous vogage on a similar j craft. | [ (Official notices. Notice To TaxPayers.
