THE "SITUATION."

The question of adjournment still re-
mains unsettled in Congress. The House
resolution to adjourn upon fixed day in
July, has not received the concurrence of
the Senate. The latter body prefers to
await the action of Tennessee in relation to
accepting the reconstruction programme.
The radicals are evidently anxious to admit
somebody into the Union before adjourn
ing, and hope that Tennessee will array
herself in readiness for initiation before
that time. They fear to 60 back to
their constituents with an eight months
session of empty labor. Such result will
prove damaging to the future success of
many of the party.
The new Army Bill which has occupied
an unusual amount of time and discussion,
has been adopted by the House. 1t pro,
vidss for standing army of $4,000 men,
besides making other important changes in
the organization of companies, etc. 1t
prohibits any person who served in the
civil or military service of the late Confed-
crate States from entering the United
States army at any time.
The Secretary of the Treasury, who has
proved himself beyond question an able
and practical fuancier, has sent to the
House a communication advising an addi-
tional enactment to the direct tax, bill,
authorizing the Southern States to assume
the amount of direct taxes due from the
citizens of the same. He also advises,
in view of the impoverished condition Of
the South, that the collection of taxes be
suspended until an opportunity for assump-
ton by the States is afforded He also
suggests that the sums realized by the
Government from property bid in by the
Government and re.sold, be allowed to the
States as credit for taxes. These views are
urged in consideration of the impoverished
condition of the South-the scarcity of
money, and to save from confscation the
property of many against whom the Gov
erpment has no cause of complaint. Con.
gress had not, at last advices, taken any
action on the subject.
THAD STEVENS sup again, with another
constitutional amendment. His last, is an
effort to allow Congress to impose an export
duty on cotton. The previous question
was called, and debate upon the measure
stiAed. The House in this instance, how
ever, proved refractory and rejected the
measure by vote of 81 to SO.
RAYMOND seems to change sides upon
every question that comes up. He recently
voted for the Civil Rights Bill, and sus-
tanned its passage over the Presidents veto.
He voted for the Constitutional amendment
in the House, yet has recently delivered q
lengthy speech in opposition to it, and
announcing himself as supporter of the
President. He is crazy.

THE WAR IN EUROPE.


On our outside pages of this issue, will
be found an interesting statement of the
cause of quarrel in Europe, as also syn
opsis of the Treaties of 1915, by which
severa! important principalities were oblit-
Grated and sliced out to ambitious SOY.
ereigns. ...... ....r.,
There seems at this time, to be sort of
ominous quiet between the CONTESTANTS
across the water 1t is regarded as the
pause that always precedes the shock of
conflict. The peace Congress has broken
up failure, and the parties are apparently
gathering their strength in order to give
the utmost force to the first shock. Wheth-
er this intervening quiet will bring peaceful
measures again into discussion, remains to
be seen. All intelligent observers seem to
coincide the opinion, that the war has virtu.
ally begun. -
The enthusiasm of the lower classes in
Europe in favor of the war is one of its
strangest features. The quarrel does not
rest upon questions in which the masses
are interested, but on the contrary involves
nothing further than ambitious projects for
dominion. With Prussia and Austria this
is especially the case. Italy is enthusiastic,
because part of her territory is yet to be
rescued from the Austrian grasp. The
motives impelling her people to the conflict
are thus more excusable.
We have felt an interest in this gigantic
European question, because its settlement,
if by arms, is one that will effect, to large
extent, the material interests of this coun.
try. The South will especially feel it's
weight. Her cotton will decline just in
proportion to the number of spindles that
the war stops in Europe. All foreign pro-
duotions will appreciate just in proportion
to the reduced manufacture entailed by the
war. Breadstufs and provisions, that we
import more or less Of, will rise in price, as
the demand to supply the vast armies in
the field increases. The drain of money
from this country has already affected us
seriously, and may continue to do 30. For
these reasons the South would gladly see
the sword hung away in repose in every
country in the world.

POST OFFICES,

We publish in this issue list Of post of

about seventy Offices have found post mas
ters that can take the OATH This District
has but four Offices, so fur as we know, now

The subject is one of so much Importance
to every community, that we feel constrain.
ed to urge it again to the attention of the
people. If there be any person, male or fe'
male, who can swallow the "iron clad," as il
has been appropriately termed, let an appli
cation for appointment be forwarded to Gov

be unobstructed. The Test Oath will not

COOP NEWS TO MERCHANTS. Our cit.
izens will be pleased to learn that freights
have been reduced on the South Carolina
Railroad, and an era has been insugurated
by the Company that calls to mind the pal
mier days before the war. We cite as in
stances, reductions on the freights of the
following articles: Oats to 10 cents; Corn
to IL cents; Salt to 10 cents; chartered
cars to $50; coal and ice to $5.25 per ton ;
and 25 per cent on stock.
Arrangements have likewise been made
for the early rebuilding of the depot, and
the commencement of the old system Of
receiving and forwarding. General Super.
intendent Peake has also issued orders for
the reconstruction of the platform at the
Charlotte Junction, SO that freight may be
shipped through from Charleston without
the present delay and inconvenience
Freights may then be paid here, instead Of
at Charleston. All this work will be ac-
complished between the first and fifteenth
July. An improvement. of this description
has long been desired, but the difficulties
with which the Rail Road Company have
had to contend, have measurably prevented
the consummation so devoutly wished for

THE NEW ARMY BILL.

That clause in the new Army Bill pro-
hibitiug any person who served the late
Confederate States either in civil or mill
tary capacity from entering the army Of the
United States, brings us some soace in our
affliction. We can now listen to war rumors,
and hostile Congressional debates against
Great Britain. Mexico and other offenders.
without any fears of ever being dragged
out again to dig trenches, or become targets
for rifle practice. We are decidedly pleased
with the arrangement We shall now ad.
vocate war fercely and persistently, when.
ever the slightest proVocation for it arises.
We think the United States ought to
lick Great Britain at once for her past Of
fences. Cuba might, at the same time, be
wrested from that crazy old power-Spaiu,
and Maximilian unseated in Mexico. Our
voice is for war decidedly and emphatically !!
FIRES.
The mails from neighboring Districts in
this State, frequently, oflate, bring the pain
ful news of heavy losses by fire. The
pretty little village of Darlington was few
weeks since, almost demolished by this ele-
ment, through the work of incendiaries.
A few days later second attempt was
made to destroy that portion of it left BY
the ravages of the first conaagration. The
populous little town of Newberry, has been
more recently the scene of one of the most
destructive fires that has ever visited the
up.country. Property of great value, the
result of years Of industry, was swept away
almost at breath.
The frequency of these occurrences in
our rural towns, must bring painful appre.
tensions to property owners residing in
them. 1t would be we'll for US in view of
such accidents, to make better preparations
to meet them, should such occur in our
midst. Each town and village should Or

surance agencies are also important as a
means of equalizing losses, that would
otherwise fall heavily upon single individ.

may save many from loss.
