IRosrAAu on TIN CABrs l ,nsrATcans.-The
transition state Of the contineA OF Europe o.
present. the daily changes O policy and
events which are occurring there, exhibit IN
remarkable manner the value of b 10 Atlantic
cable to this country. We have new nom the
Old World almost by the hour. We are In
constant communication with the in4 'ortan'
centres Of intelligence. Thesystem Win % the
HERALD has adopted Of furnishing the \ 'ewl
has developed the usefulness Of Che AnaA tic
cable almost Immediately upon the estsblisA
mont Of Geographic connection between the two
countries, and Il is to this system that the p0b-
lilo are indebted for the news As for the As
ISOLATED Press 1t has no arrangements for the
perfect transmission Of news, and is in fact a
worthless institution. The executive business
is managed by Nincompoop No. One-Mf. Mar
ble-and Nincompoop No. Two-Mr. Sinclair
who understand nothing about the business;
and hence if the public were dependent upon
the Associated Press for news they would be
behind tho age in knowledge. The agency in
this city is equally badly managed, and should
be either rem0delled or the whole concern
abolished. There have been frequent Cola
plants in Wall street that the news has been
held back and otherwise used for purposes Of
speculation. Be this as II may. we know that
dispatches have been held over for seven or
eight hours by the Associated Press agents to
the great detriment OF public Interest,"
fact which is In itaelf sufficient to prove that
the agency Of the Associated Press ought to
be entirely remodelled or the present agent dis
missed.
We have succeeded in placing before the
public the earliest news from Europe bearing
upon important topics at considerable ex-
pense but we are quite willing to incur the
cost rs long as the community are
benefited. Some Of the other journals are dis
posed to bear fair ratio of the expense, ac-
cording to agreement The mean man Of the
World, however, continues to take our des-
patches; and, while he publishes them from
time to time, is silly enough TO abuse them
and attempt 10 lessen their value as matters of
news. While Europe is IN its present transit
tory state. with wars and revolutions imminent,
and every days intelligence by the cable rep
resenling new phases in political affairs, 1t Is
OF the utmost moment that we should have
the means Of immediate communication; and,
having that means at our command, it would
be dereliction Of duty in q great leading
journal not to employ 1t, and therefore we
mean to use 1t to its utmost capacity for the
public good.

AFFAIRS IN sourH CAROLINA Lieutenant
E. P Docherty of Booth capture notoriety,
has just returned to Washington, from four
months residence in South Carolina, and gives
rather discouraging account oft the crops and
the general condition of the country. Lieu
tenant Docherty was for several months pro
vost judge for the Sumter, Clarendon and
Kershaw districts, in addition to discharging
the duties of apost commandant, and is there
fore familiar with the workings of the freed
mems bureau. He pronounces the contract
system failure, and is decidedly of opinion
that the labor question would soon adjust
itself to the advantage of ali concerned if left
to itself. The abolition ofproyost or military
courts he considers would also contribute to
peace and harmony, and better subserve the
ends of Justice.

ton of the language of written Constitution,
which is the basis of law. There is yet another
axiom Of equal or greaterimp portauce that's that
plan and specific direction found in one article,
should not be overrated by forced OF latitudiqa-
rian construction Of subsequent article in the
same Instrument
In art. l. sec. 2, the Constitution directs " that
the electors in such State shall have the qualica
tions requisite for electors of the most numerous
branch OF the State legisature.n
Here we have clause without any qualification
or condition whatever, which fully satisfies my
mind that the clause relied on by the Chicago Re-
publican, for distranchsing Southern Yosers, is not
it; and furthermore admitting that the language
can be tortured so as to bear it, yet it would be
a direct violation Of the preceding article in re-
ference to the qualification of electors, which is
plain and anmistakable in its import. w.w.P.
