CHARLESTON.
TUESDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 20, VM.
Wi; roui.1811 lo-day, on our inner pages, n
great variety of interesting matter, among
which ia ft further contribution from G. W. Waj
the exceedingly interesting story, as related by
Mr. Fir."i>, of the great undertaking of the
laying ol' the Atlantic Telegraph Cable ; late
State, Georgia and North Carolina items, and
our usual full and accurate commercial and
marine intelligence.
THE EFFECT OF THE LATE ELECTIONS
ON THE SOUTH.
There ?b, wc believe, a general disposition to
admit at the North that the people of the South
Lave abandoned the hope of vindicating their
own rightB and fortunes in the country; and
this commendable condition they attribute to
the results of late elections in that section. lu
the facl, wc presume, they arc not mistaken.
Wc believe that the people of the South are
utterly without the purposo of resistance
further. But there is error in supposing that
this slate of apathy and acquiescence has result
ed from the late elections. Thero were some,
perhaps, who believed that the Union was
stronger than the party that assailed it, and
that a sentiment of fidelity to that Union,
even at the North, would be sufficient to resist
tlio Radical movement to overturn it. But the
number, wc beliove, was small. Our delegates
to the Philadelphia Convention, under the ex
citement-of that occasion, exhibited, if they
did n*5t feel, the hope of some available reac
tion; but that hope was shared by very few
who stayed at home. It was evident that the
one parly would offer to popular action the in
ducement- only which consists, in the per
formance of an act of justice ; the other, the
more potent inducements, which consist in the
promises of plunder; and it could scarcely
have been a question which of these would have
the most effect. The result, therefore, was a
foregone conclusion; and the apnthy and ac
quiescence at the South is not now more pro
found than it has been at any period since the
termination ol' the war.
Wc have had hopes, it is true, that the better
policy of the President? will prevail, and that
no further sacrifice than the loss of our negro
property will be necessary to the restoration of
the Union. It seemed important to the well
being of whites and blacks that States charged
-with a large uneducated population, just free
.f the only restraints it had over known, should
have the powers of self-government; and it
seemed, also, that there was yet much of
promise in the Union, and the hope was enter
tained that a senso of common right or of com
mon intcrcbt would sustain that policy, and wc
could not, therefore, bo unmoved spectators of
the contest between the Government and the
Radical party; und naturally and necessarily,
therefore, there have been expressions in
approbation of the course the Government, in
-vindication of its policy, has had occasion to
pursue. In these expressions, however, there
has been no utterance of the purpose to inter
vene in the proceeding. Wo knew too well
that our aid would bo unavailing, and tlint our
utteranocs even would but perplex the for
tunes of the Government. It was in its tenden
cy to protect tho people of the South that the
ta8k of the Government to restore tho Union
-was rendered onerous. Even radicalism would
have accepted the Union, if in that there had
been no necessary abandonment of the material
acquisition of the war. Thi3 wc knew as well
then as wo know it now. The purposo of inter
vening then was not more entertained than it is
now ; and if it be a pleasure to the people at
the North to know thal wo acquiesce, now at
last, in facts accomplished, it is a pleasure they
might haye enjoyed at any time since hostilities
were ended.
It is said, however, thal, inasmuch as wo
have the good senso, at prosent, to accept the
situation, it were but a further exercise of that
good sense to anticipate the purposes of that
party with respect to us, and disarm it by in
flicting its policy upon ourselves. This deduc
tion, however, is not logical,and tho suggestion
wo cannot accept. Wc . cannot know, nor
do they themselves, what that policy is, or
what complianco will content them. That
party must antagonize tho South. Our condi
tion, however changed, will present as many
objects of exception; and if thcro were no other
reasons for repose, it were at least moro con
Vf nient to await results than, by impotent ac
tivity, to fatigue ourselves with unavailing cf
' forts to appease them.
THE REFORM MOVEMENT IN ENOLAND.
A now phaso has been exhibited to the re
form movement in Great Britain, which vwill
render it a subject of more legitimato interest
to the friends of liberty. At a recent enter
tainment given to Mr. Bbioiit in Dublin, it was
announced that the reformers in England would
make common causo with the people of Ireland
jn their effovts to emoncipate themselves from
I
tbc political restrictions under which they huvo
long anil painfully labored ; and if this be done,
important cons?quences may result. That the
reformers will ultimately triumph, there can be
little question, ami if, in that triumph, they
shall insist that Ireland shall share, and, in
good faith, shall require (he obliterations of dis
tinctions to Hie prejudice of her people, the
work of Irish emancipation may be really
nenicved, and without the turnibil and blood
necessarily incident to any of the plans for the
achievement of that great object proposed by
the organizations lately moving in the matter.
Ii is to be doubled, however, whether this
promise, in good faith, will be performed. If
Ireland shall be necessary to the reformers of
England, and so long as she may be necessary,
she will bo conciliated.; but when their end shall
have been obtained, they may not be considerate
of tHc means of its attainment. Men love
liberty, but they love dominion also, nnd, if
they can secure their own liberly, which, in
fact, is but nnothcr name for the ntlninmcnt of
the power to influence, to n greater extent, the
action of tho British Government, they will
find it not more profitable than pleasant to re
tain the sister island in ?v condition in which it
can be made the convenient subject for the
exercise, through the Imperial Government, of
such power us they may be able to exert; and
as the attainment of their own ends will" be
made easier by their readiness lo sacrifice to it
the fortunes of Ireland, it is abundantly proba
ble thal, of nil the enthusiasm inspired by the
prospect of such n coalition, this inuy be the
janie and impotent conclusion.
For the present, however, it will be apt to
arrest flic further prosecution of the Fenian
enterprise. Of that there is but little pros
pect of any positive results. No enterprise
could be more visionary than that of conquer
ing England by force of arms. Of that projec
tile enthusiasm inspired by ils novelty has neart
ly subsided. This scheme of coalition with the
reformers of England is more feasible andmore
safe, and to that, therefore, it is to be expected
that the energies of men devoted to the libera
tion of their country will ultimately be turned.
And it is truly to be hoped that the forces of
Ireland, if turned on this measure, will be so
turned upon it ns that, she will surely purtici-1
pate in the results of their achievement.
The Charleston and Savannah Railroad_Tho
U. S. Circuit Court, on its Equity sido, has been
engaged for several days on the case of .? Tho
Rooe-8 Locomotive and Machino Works, a Corpo
ration of New Jersey, vs. Isaac W. Hayne, Edward
Sebrino, John E. Carew, citizens of South Caro
lina, and others-Bill^for account Discovery, In
junction and Relief." This Bill is filed by Gen. Wa.
E. Martin,- Complainants' Solicitor.
The present discussion arose on a motion for
injonction against tho salo of tho Charleston and
Savannah Railroad, which is advertised to take
placo this day. From tho bill it appears that the
above-named Locomotive Company furnished, some
time boforo the war, to the Charleston and Savan
nah Railroad Company, " Twolvo flrat-class loco
motives, and other stock and material, their whole
account amounting to $99,290.65, and received
payment on account, leaving a balance, which, with
interest, now amounts to S-18,630.97.
It further appears that somo timo before the last
work was delivered, tho Locomotivo Company be
came approhonsiv? of loss, and requested n return
of tho engines. At this time 0110 engine, called tho
"Southward Ho," was in Charleston, with tho box
ing unrcmovod, and tho Prosidont, Gen. Drayton,
consented io return tho "Southward Ho," and ar
rangements for hor reshipment wore being mado,
whou Gen. Drayton changed his mind, and re
fusod to rodclivcr the locomotive; and tho Railroad
Company retained possession of tho locomotivos,
and have failed to pay thoir debt, to rocovor which
the Locomotive Company has commenced an ac
tion on tho law sido of the Circuit Court.
On the 1st of January, 1858, the Charleston and
Savannah Railroad Company issned two thousand
bonds, of $500 each, payablo January 1, 1878, and
secured thoir payment by a mortgago of the road,
beds and superstructures, and all thoir present
and in futuro to bo acquired property. The de
fendants named abovo aro tho trustees for tho
bondholders under thiB mortgago. Thoso trustees
propose to sell tho road this day, in pursaance of
the provisions of tho said mortgago, for tho bone
flt of tho bondholdors.
Tho complainants, approhonsivo that tho sale of
the road will leave them without redress, havo ap
pliod for an injunction to stop tbo salo, and in
their bill allego ninetoon grounds in support of
their application, tho principal of which aro, that
tho locomotives, being property acquired after tho
date of tho mortgage, could not pass by that in
strument, and that the locomotives having been
ncqnirod upon a promiso of payment in cash upon
dolivory, the subsoquont possession of tho compa
ny was fraudulent, and did not affect tho com
plainants' lion upon thom for tho amount of tho
pni .baso money.
Tho dofonce to the bill is to tho cflbct that, bow
evor just tho debt of tho complainants may bo,
they havo lost their lien npon tho locomotives,
and havo, thoroforo, no right to apply to a Court
of Eqnity to enjoin tho solo of thom, under tho
lion created by a mortgago. ^
Mossrfl. Wa D. Porter and C. 1{ic_a"d.son Mixes
appeared for tho trust?es; Messrs. Henry Buist
and J. B. Campbell for -tho bondholders; and
Moasrs. MoOuady and Simonton for tho Charles
ton and Savannah Railroad Company. *
Tho decroo of the Court was as follows :
"It is ordorod that the dofondants, Isaac W.
Hayno, Edward Sobring, and John E. Carow, Trus
tooa, bo enjoinod from soiling the four locomotives.
Isondiga, Mayor Macboth, Jamos Adgor aud South

them to bo Hold, until tho further order of this
Court, or until tho said Trust, os givo .u?ioieut

The Union Wharves.-At tho foot of Pinoknoy
street is an oxtonsive and valuable wharf proporty,
formerly known as Moy's Wharf. Tho groat firo
of 1861 swept away tho immonso two-story ware
house, 100 fcot front on East Bay and 600 foot deep,
with cotton proas and othor convonionces of busi
ness, noglccted from nocossity during tho war.
Worms destroyed tho pier, and the action of tho
tidos chokod np the dooks with mud to such an ex
tent that not ovon a schooner could got to a berth
whero once tho largest ships floated.
It has bcon a work of nino months to rebuild tho
pier (875 fea. in longth), to drodgo ont tho docks,
and re-erect tho counting rooms. Captain James
Copes undertook what provod to bo a horculoan
task, for this pier had to bo reconstructed to
its very foundation, below tho low water mark.
Tho ontiro .truoturo has .bcon also raised thirty
inchc. above tho old lovel. An extensivo shed
spans tho splendid pier, ami wo venturo to-say
that thero aro no hotter arranged wharf premisos
in Oharloston. Wo aro ploasod te loam that
furthor improvomonts aro proposed.
Tho property adjoining to the south still exhibits
tho neglect and weor of fivo or six years, but both
tho piora aro available for business purposes. Tho
ontiro proporty is now in clinrgo of Messrs. Cochte
NA- & TitENiioi-j, ngcnls of tho Bnltimoro slcam
cra, for which vessels berths arc secured at Pier
No. 1.
Tho entrance to tho dockn by Piin-knoy-strcot is
wido; but by way of Uuync-otroot, from Anson
stroot to tho water, it is very narrow. Wo have
heard it rumored that City Council havo marked
off tho lrnoa for tho extension of Hayno-atrcct, and
as tboro is nothing but blackened ruin?, it would
?com a propitious limo to carry out tho original
plan of llaync-strcot, viz: to mako it a business
thoroughfaro from Mooling-street to Ea_t Bay and
the river.
Wo tata ploasuro in recording the reopening of
Union Wharf, and bavo no doubt that it will soon
bo a crowdod mart. It certainly is a most conve
nient landing for IJayne, Meeting and King-street
merchants, and much tho most convenient to tho
principal railroad depots.
.Stbeet ADVEn-nsmo.-Tina ia ono of tho fea
tures of every largo town, and ia ono of tho most
auccossful modes of attracting attention that has
over been practiced. From the 'Brobdinagian let
tors to tho mystic anagrams that puzzlo tho un
initiated, every effort is used and no pains spared
to bring tho notico boforo tho public. Tho intlo
fatigablo assiduity of these knights of tho pasto
pot ?b so woll known, that thoso palliou who wish
to preservo thoir walla intact aro compelled to
warn tbo intrudor off by tho mandato, "Stick no
Bills." An old fonco or dilapidated wall changes
its nppcaranco in a night, and tho noxt day a won
dering crowd of small fry snrround tho spot, where
all tho glorios of a circus or somo wonderful now
euro aro displayed in glowing colora. It is par
ticularly amusing whon, aB is ofton seen, tho cir
cus, opera, patent medicine-, and a variety of
other at?vcrtisemonts, aro mixed together and
paBtcdovor each other, so aa to partly loso their
identity in tho gonoral confusion. The words that
can bo read here and thcro havo no connection
with each other, but ofton upset tho gravity of
tho roador as ho attempts to wado through tho
jnmble. Fow prominont places escapo tbo touch
of tho paste, and long after the performance has
closed and tho parties havo left, hugo letters, so
arranged that all who run might read, recall pleas
ant memories and old associations.
This system of advertising has boen wonderfully
dovclopcd lately not only jn tho number, but in tho
style and variety of theso street notices. Dbaki:,
of tho Plantation Bitters, led tho way, and now, on
every streot cornor, somo curious and puzzling
figures attract tho attention. What these moan is
unknown to many, but others study it out and per
haps invest. (?) At tho North.whoretbia science was
originated, thoy conduct it according to Bottled
principios, and affix their trado marks and pastors
to rocks, mountains and trocs, and, indeod, in
every placo where tho oyo of man can observe
thom. All tbo colors of tho rainbow aro used to
delineate the romarkablo euros, and to render the
announcement moro startling and attractive.
Traveller?, who aro fond of picturesque lieau
ties, aro often annoyed at finding some quack
medicine advertised on tbo rocky sides of a hill,
completely destroying tho effect for a lover of
nature. This system is by no moana new, for, in
making tho excavations at Hcrcnlaneum and
Pompofi, ko-sos woro unearthed that had on their
walla tho romains of-ltd street advortiuomonts in
which t lui Homans of that day called attention to
tho different shows and amuBomonts thon being
porformod. Every roscaren into tho mysteries of
the past only tonds to show that the ancients wore
not behind tho present ago, and tonda to prove
conclusively that thero ia indo?d nothing now un
der the sun, not oven in tho advertising line.
The Mills IIouse ?m a Blaze.-Thero was quito
an excitomont last night at this popular hotel
than which thero is-nono better throughout the
longth and broadth of Undo Sam'a dominions.
The excitomont was canxed by tho introduction,
by Joseph Purcell, of tho Gas Multiplier of Mr.
Poznans*!! into bia olegant establishment. Tbo
Multiplier has boon tested in tho Daily News
office, and has so far proved to bo a perfect success;
tho samo result has followed i' s application in tho
Guard House, and last night the Milln Uouso was
added to tho list. Somo of our good citizens may
not, porbapa, clearly comprehend what it is that
the Multiplier purports to do and, what ia botter,
does. It may bo thuB summed up in parvo and
placed in a diminutivo nut sholl : If youl' gas bill
is $100, by naing tho Mnltiplior you aro furnished
with a far moro brilliant fight by paying $50 to the
Gas Company and $10 to tho patoutco-in other
words, you save forty per cont. or forty dollars on
each hundred that you pay at present, and your
fight is fr.r brighton
The Weather_For tho past two or thrco days
it has soomod as if Autumn was transformed into
Hummer, and if it wero not for. tho dead leaves
that drift wildly around, and tho desolate appear
ance of tho bare troo", wo could easily bolievo that
time had retrograded and Christmas was still
somo months off. Tho air is balmy and delicious,
just sufficiently tomporcd to mako it bracing and
pleasant, and though thore aro not many itci-B of
intoi-OBt to bo collected, yet it ia a luxury to hunt
for thom in auch weather. Diana, too, lias turned
up again on hor monthly round, and is favoring
the inhabitants of this earth with her rays, caus
ing gas lamps and all lessor constollations, oxcopt
tho guardians of the night, to hido thoir diminish
ed heads for a season. The looso bricks on tho
pavomont are now discovered and avoided, and
many an execration on tho unpleasantness of oui'
ways suppressed on account of her gonorous light.
In a word, it is not only tho woathor to enjoy, but
it is just tho kind to writo about, and if wo havo
not dono tho subject juatico, it is becauso we aro
not out of doors whoro wo oan fool its happy in
fluence
o %
Tableaux Vivamts and Soiree Musicale.-By
tho programme published elsowhoro, it will bo
soon that a rich treat is in otoro for tho lovers of
music, recalling tho days of tho Philharmonic and
Coryphcoan concerts. Tho ladies of St. Mary's
congregation will doBorvo tho thanks* of a grateful
community for furnishing this ontortainniont, and
wo hopo thoir praiseworthy efforts will meet with
suitablo recognition. The object is such as will
roadily commend itself to all our oitizons.
Tho program ruo promisoi? woll. "Titania and
hor Court" wo know will draw; bo will "Joan of
Arc," and tho "Smiling Facoa," wo fool assured,
will finish tho work. Tho musical selections aro
all excellent, and, wo feel assured, will be rendered
with tasto and admirablo execution. Lot all go,
and go early, au tho Hall can only accommodate a
limited nnmbor.
Captu-e of IIonsE Thieve-.-Somo wooka ago
information wa. rocoivod hero of a horse thoft in
North Carolina, and it was known that the thieves
had crossed tho border. Tho detectives of tho
city woro instantly put on their track and suc
ceeded in capturing ono of tho party in Orango
burg. Bo is now in jail, whore ho will await tho
requisition of tho Governor of North Carolina.
The Social Cinc"_.-A numbor of tho young I
persons of this city, of which S. Zemansk?, T. Loelt
and J. M. Bimpso?i aro tho mauagors, have fonn.d
a society entitled "The Social Circle," wh.ch will
meet onco every two weeks for the purpose of so
cial recreation.
To IIousEKEE-Eits.-Attention is directed to the
advertisement of Mr. II. MoCall, who ofiers at
private sale many articles that aro needed for tablo
uso. They are all of the finest quality, and will bo
sold at a sacrifice. Tho war broke up many fumi
lies, and few now have all their wants supplied,
but a visit to Mr. McCall's, and a judicious invest
ment of a few greenbacks, will soon remedy this
evil.
N-ono Killed.-A negro named Nero Clodding
wau run over on last Saturday near the Five Mile
Curve, and instantly lulled. Ho was walking on
tho South Carolina Railroad, but, when the train
approached ho beenmo confused, and, as tho
whistlo blew, stepped on the othor track, about
thirty feet from tho ongino. Though every effort
was made to stop tho train, it was too lato, and
tho unfortunate man was run over and killed, an
inquest was hold on tho body on Sunday by the
Coroner. Tho Jury returned a verdict of acciden
tal death, completely exonerating the engineer
from all blame.
' -o
, PnisoN Rules and Discipline.-Sinco it has
boon satisfactorily arranged that our State is to
havo a penitontiary, tho best modo of governing it
will next bo the question. Fortunately this is very
easily answered by reforring tho parties intorostcd
to Mr. Samuel Hart's Book Store, at No. 332 King
street. Mr. Hart, who ia a perfect Nestor in his
business, has long seen tho necessity for works
flint would throw nome light on thiu subject, and
?fters for sale a valuablo collection of Reports on
tho different prisons in tho world, with tho advan
tages of each system described fully. This is by
far the best collection of its kind in the United
States, and should ho owned by every person who
wishes lo know the manner of prison government.
Pbecocioiis Thieves.-Six email "white boys, be
tween tho ages of six and twolvo, wcro arrested
and brought before tho Mayor yesterday morning,
charged with having oponed tho machino shop of
Messrs. Chapmvn & Wightman with false keys and
stealing a number of articles from there, including
a quantity of city property. Thoy confessed tho
theft, nnd stated that tho goods were sold to differ
ent junk shops in tho city. Part of the goods
woro recovered, but a largo quantity lind boon
broken up and shipped to Boston. Mr. Chapman,
who traced tho goods to tho boys, declinod to
prosccuto them on account of their ago, but turned
thom over to tho lender morc.es of their parents.
The Carriage Emporium.-Our readers, in glanc
ing over tho paper this morning, might, perhaps,
be misled by the number of cuts in it into tho bc
liof that it is an illustrated shoot. Wo hasten to
correct such an impression by stating that tho
carriages, buggios, &c, seen thoro, aro onlv ,a
sample of tho stock of Messrs. R. W. Gale &. Co.,
and that thoso gcntlomen havo taken this method
of informing the public that their Emporium, in
Wentworth Btreet, is well supplied with vehicles of
every description, which thoy will offer for solo at
tho lowest figures. The roputation of this firm is
bo well known that comment iB-hnrdly necessary,
but as many aro ignorant of tho p.aco where they
can procuro a fino vehiclo, wo confidently recom
inond MosBrs. Ra W. Gale & Co. as being carriage
dealers par excellence, and who make it a point to
satisfy all who apply.

who was fond of tho weed, was observed puffing
his segar in the Market. Ho was remonstrated

him. A small fino of $5 was also imposed for his
obstinacy.
Caoear Holmes smoto a little white girl with a

Ono of Isaac Walton's ebon disciples refused to

to the domand in the choicost Billingsgate. Fish

Honor ordered him to forfoit $5.
A jolly Teuton, who waB looking for meteors
