NEWS OE THE /XAJfT,
-Gold closed In New York, on Saturday, at
ll 3allf.
-Cotton closed firm at 16 cents for uplands;
sales 4665 bales.
-In Liverpool cotton was buoyant; uplands
7?a7?d, Orl?ans 7Jd; sales 15,000 bales.
-The Montgomery, Alabama, MAU and the
Advertiser have consolidated, and will here?
after appear as one publication, under the pro?
prietary control of Colonel W. W. Screws and
Mr. M J. Williams.
-Horace Greeley, of tho New York Tri?
bune, Ts to start out soon on a Southern tour,
and will stop a few days in Charleston. He
will probably arrive here about the latter part
of the month.
-Bismarck's new title of prince ls heredi- j
tary, but can only be assumed by the eldest
BOO ot the family in each generation. The title
in full is "His Serene Highness, the Prince
Von Bismarck-Schoenhausen." It-is asserted
that the present income ol the chancellor is
not in accordance with his princely rank, and
there is talk of additional dower for the title
from the crown.
-General Steinmetz, the cit* hero whose im?
petuous valor accomplished so much for the
German army upon the bloody field of Grave?
lotte, has been created a field marshal, not?
withstanding the fact that he was relieved of I
his command for "too much fighting" on that f
eventiul day. Having "disciplined" him for
the technical act of transcending his orders,
the Emperor now pays this deserved compli?
ment to his chivalrous daring and courage.
-Governor *Vamoth, of Louisiana, has been
brought to griel. In a speech made a few
days since at a reception given to General J
Sherman in New Orleans, the Governor fa-1
cetiously alluded to the fact of his having been
"badly demoralized" in the attack upon Vicks?
burg, and to his having solicited a leave o? ab?
sence on that occasion. General Sherman re?
sponded: "You ought to have been shot,
sir." The Governor probably had not much
appetite for the rest o? the banquet.
-The Paris correspondent of the London
News says that the devastation caused by the
bombardment of Neuilly is even greater than
might have been expected. In the avenue
leading to thc- Portes des Ternes whqle?eides of |
houses are smashed in, and the streets around
are aheap of ruins. The trees are toron to
shreds, and scarcely a lamp post is left stand?
ing. In Ihe other main thoroughfare leading
from Neuilly to Paris-the Avenue de la Grand
Armee-there is not a house which has es?
caped being hit. Some are riddled with shot.
-Says the Paris Univers: "The Concierge?
rie contains at this moment about sixty priests*
all torn arbitrarily from their religious house's
or from the churches of Paris; and in addition
others are incarcerated at Muzos, La Ro?
quette, La Sante, &c. The first named receive
no other food than early in the morning a ra?
tion of insufficiently baked black bread; at 9.
a basin of what is supposed to be broth, and
at 3 a small portion of rice or meat. They are
not allowed any knife or fork, but only a j
round wooden spoon, and are by special or?
ders deprived ol the privilege enjoyed by
other prisoners ot obtaining better food from
the canteeu. Yet many ol the clergy detain,
ed at the Conciergerie are old mi.n, are forced
to remain in their cells night and day, and are
forbidden to take exercise in the yard."
-It is now proposed to introduce the system
of uarrow-gauge tracks for street railways ia
small cities, where tracks of Ihe ordinary
width would not pay. It ls suggested that a j
track of only two ieet wide, or even narrower,
with light rails and light one-horse cars, with
a driver who will also act as a conductor, nay
pay where two-horse cars could not be sup?
ported. It ls calculated that by this plan the
track will cost originally only about one-half |
as much as the ordinary gauge; that it will
save two-thirds of the expense of paving., and
repairing, and that it will dispense with the
pay of conductors. It will require only one
hall the number of horses, and consequently
only one-half the amount ol* stable-room and
feed, while the original ccst of the cars will be
much less. The advocates of the new system,
with a good show of reason, claim other ad?
vantages for the narrow track, which it ls said
is about to be introduced as au experimeut in
Troy.
-The original Rothschilds hare still a large
banking-house al Franktort-ou-the-Maiu. It
ls situated at the loot of the old Jews' street,
near the place where the old Anselm, the
founder of the firm, was born. On the 10th of |
April the peaceful inmates of that house be
came terror-stricken. A Frenchman had en?
tered the counting-room in the morning, de?
manding the payment ci a milliou lruncs for
the Commune at Paris, threatening the whole
Rothschild family with destruction in case of
a refusal to pay the required bounty. The fool
was shown the door, but immediately alter
his exit a small bombshell, like those ol Orsini,
filled with nitro glyceiiue exploded in the ves?
tibule in front of the counting-room, in conse?
quence of which a heavy will, separating the
ante-room from the office, was driven in and
one of the clerks badly wounded. The police'
got hold ol'the miscreant-it is not yet ascer?
tained whether he is simply a fanaticised tool,
or a member ot a secret society ordered to
commit the act.
-A dispatch from Mr. Washburne, thc
United States Minister at Paris, gives some
interesting details of the treatment ol' Mg
Darboy, Archbishop ol' Paris, who was thrown
into the dungeons ol'the Mazas prison hythe
Commune. After narrating the difficulties he
encountered in obtaining permission to visit
the archbishop, Mr. Washburne says: ?I
must say I was deeply touched al the appear?
ance of this venerable mau, with Iiis Blender !
person, his form somewhat bent, his lon:,
beard, (for he lias not shaved apparently since
his imprisonment,,' his face haggua w ith ill
health, ail could not have failed io have moved
'he most indifferent. I told him I hud great
pleasure, at the inslauce of bis friends
in intervening in his behalf, and while
I could not promise myself the satisfac?
tion of seeing htm released, I was very glad to
be able to vUit him to ascertain his wants, ann
assuage the cruel position in which lie i'oiiud
himself. He thanked me most heartily and
cordially for thu disposition I had manifested
towards him. I was charmed by his cheerful
spirit and hts interesting conversation. He
seemed to appreciate his critical situation, and
tobe prepared for thu worn. He had no
word of bitterness or reproach for his persecu
tors, bul, on the other band, remarked that
the world Judged them to be worse than they
really were. He was patiently awaiting the
logic of '?yents, ana praying that Providence
might Hud a solution to these terrible troubles
without the further shedding of human blood*.
He is confined in a cell about six feet by ten,
possibly a little larger, which has the ordinary
furniture of the Mazas prison-a wooden chair,
a small wooden table and a prison oed. The cell
is lighted by one small window. As a political
prisoner, he is permitted to have bis food
brought to him from outside the prison, arid in
answer t o my suggestion that I should be glad
to'ser?d :iim anything he. might desire, or fur?
nish hinrwttb any "money he might want, he
said lie was not in need at present. I was the
first man he had seen from the outside since
lils imprisonment, and he had not been per?
mitted to see the newspapers, or to have any
intelligence o? passing events. I shall make
application to the prelect fof police to be al?
lowed to sand him newspapers ?tiri other read?
ing mager,' and snail a?stravairriysBl? ?f the
permission granted me to visit him, to the end
that I may afford him any proper assistance in
my power. I cannot conceal from myself,
however, tht. great danger he 13 In, and l sin?
cerely hope that I may be Instrumental In sav?
ing him lrom the fate which seems to threaten
him/' Minister Washburnealso writes an ac?
count of his subsequent successful efforts with
the Commune for the protection of property of
Americans in Paris, and the release of. Ger?
mans and others cast Into prison by the Com?
mune. Among fjhe persons released by his
Intervention were two French sisters of chari?
ty, who had been dragged from their convent
by members of the national guard, and a Ger'
man priest. He afterwards visited the Arch?
bishop of Paris, taking him some newspapers
and a bottle ot old Madeira wine. He lound
him abo it the same as he was on the occasion ol
his previous visit, and manifesting the same
cheerful spirit
The Work of the Convention.
The Taxpayers' Convention has accom?
plished its work and adjourned. It is conce?
ded by nil parlies, and by all intelligent men
without regard to politics, that the Conven?
tion is cue or the most important delibera?
tive asiiemblies that has ever met in South
Carolina. The platform of the Convention
established the fact that the people meditate
no resistance whatever to the Government
of the United States; that they regard the
Reconstruction measures as finalities; that
they look tu time and peaceful agencies only
for the solution of any ditliculties lhat may
no? or lereufter exist in the administration
of the ailairs of the State; and. tinnily, that
certain measures of reform are essential to
the peace and prosperity of the Common?
wealth. Committees were appointed who
were charged with the duty of reporting
upon in?; existing public evils, and the rem?
edies therefor. These committees were com?
posed of the ablest citizens of South Caro?
lina- men who have many times before been
tried in council and not found wanting; the
men most distinguished for learning, judg?
ment, prudence and statesmanship, and
their vit ws have been presented with force
and moderation. Let"u3 briefly review the
results of their work:
L Tho plan of Cumulative Voting, to the
end that the taxpaying minority of sixty
thousand may be represented in the next
Legislature, has been adopted, after endorse?
ment by pronounced and leading Republi?
cans, and a committee appointed to press
the mat :er upon the General Assembly when
it next convenes'.
2. The credit of the State hos been
strengthened. The sum total of the public
debt is discovered to be, say $8,800,000, and
"the honor and funds of the State arc law?
fully pledged for'the redemption thereof."
A plan lias also been suggested for the more
advantageous manipjiktiou of the funded
debt lo the eud that expenditures muy be
reduced.
3. It was solemnly declared that the Ster?
ling Loau, or any other obligations hereafter
issued by authority of the State, would not
be held binding on the people, and the tax?
payers were urged to resist ihe-puyment of
the same by all the legitimate means in their
power. A Committee of Five were also ap?
pointed lo confer with the representatives of
the Fire Loan Securities of the State with a
view to un early liquidation of these obliga?
tions.
4. A pledge was given by his Excellency
the Governor that be would use his influence
iu securing a change in the present election
law, so Hint the ballots would hereafter be
couuted in public, und temptations to fraud
be removed.
5. It tras agreed by the Governor lhat the
penalty 'or the non-payment of the Novem?
ber tax would not be enforced until the first
of March, thus practically extending the
time of payment for the benefit of the tax?
payers.
6. The alleged frauds committed by the
Legislature in the passage of the Blue Ridge
Railroad bill were discussed, and the mutter
was referred to eminent counsel for further
consideration.
7. The Governor admitted that the State
uud Conuty officers, elective and appointed,
were unnecessarily multiplied, and it was
agreed lo urge upon the General Assembly
tlie adoption of some plan' of retrenchment
and reform. His Excellency likewise prom?
ised to remove incompetent trial justices and
other officials, uud to replace them with per?
sons wt o enjoy the confidence of the com?
munity.
S. In view of the many frauds which have
been perpetrated, the Attorney-General was
requested to uttach the property of persons
in defac.il to the treasury, to proceed against
Hiern by legal process, in order that a public
example mav be made, uud to provide
suitable remuneration to informers.
9. Provision was made for a rigid investi?
gation of thc ailairs of the Land Commis?
sion.
10. The Governor und Attorney-General
were requested to require of the Fiscal
Agent of the State a bond, with sufficient
security, to protect the interests committed
to Iiis charge.
11. A series of recommendations to the
Legisla .ure were adopted, looking to the pas?
sage ol laws whereby honesty would be
secured in the administration of public af?
fairs, and a reduction of expense be effected
in various departments of the State Govern?
ment.
12. Ic was ordered that both tue Execu?
tive Committee and UieCoinraiu.ee of Eleven
have authority to continue iu permanent
session after thu adjournment of the Con?
vention; to call thu body together whenever
the exigency may require; and to appoint
sub-committees to proceed to New York and
to Columbia to aid in carrying out thc views
of the Convention, by co-operating"with
Governor, State officials and Legislatui
any efforts they may make to promote
prosperity of the State.
13. And, finally, it was recommends!
the Convention that aH secret organizati
without reference to their political charac
bc discountenanced by the people of
State.
The action, of which we have givei
outline above, carries with it its own
comment. Calm, just and prudent, it
extorted the praise even of those" who
dieted that no gooi would come of the (
vention. It has already brought aboi
state of feeling that should produce the'l
piest results. "We shall now see whe
this temperate course on the part of
best men of South Carolina, speaking
the people, will have the weight it desei
with those who sway ker destinies.
