just broken out on board the steamer Ellen S.
Terry, running to Newbern, North Carolina,
lying at the pier foot of Rector street. Many
other steamers and ships are lying adjacent,
and there is consequently much excitement
among the captains and crews, The weather is
very cola, and the 6remen are slow in getting
to work. The steamer, which was to have sailed
on the 18th, but was detained by the ice, will
probably be destroyed.
tsEooND DEsPATCH.l
New YORK, January ls.-The fire on board Of
the Ellen s. Terry has been subdued. The
damage Is not so great as was expected, owing
to the fact that the hull is OF iron, and having
iron water-tight and fre.proot compartments
The loss is partially insured and the business of
the line will not be interrupted

Honor Refore SUCCESS.

Judge Noah L.. Davis was Mr.. Conkling's prin-
cipal competitor for the Senatorship in New
York, and it is said that he was virtually noml-
mated at one time, but a surplusage of votes,
opportunely or inopportunely discovered, y1t-
ated the ballot, and on the next one Conkling
was nominated. A correspondent relates how the
thing came about as follows:-
Had MIR. Davis been guided by the advice of
his chief supporters, it is said he could have
been nominated without difficulty on the second
formal ballot In justice TO the honorable gen.
tleman, il should also be explained that the
reason he thus rejected advice was because it
involved the adoption of means which he felt
would degrade him personally, while at the
same time forbidden by the supreme law Of the
Commonwealth. In plainBAnglo-Saxon it was
proposed to him to use moneyin in obtaining votes
1t was represented TO him that the power of
greenbacks was becoming extensively exercised
on the other side, and that he would be justified
in doing the same thing to insure his election
To these arguments he replied substantially
thus:-
'Gentlemen, had consulted my own feelings
in this matter, l should not have come here at
all during tho progress of the campaign. |
came here at your solicitation, because my COM
petitoTs were on the ground, and because was
not personally known 10 my supporters. You
believed my presence was actually necessary,
and am here. But win not consent that a
single dollar be used improperly to further my
prospects"
This firm reputation of the bribery policy
disconnected his friends considerably, and left
them, they saw to contend against great odds
in electoneerlng. Notwithstanding this, how
ever, / am informed that some OF Judge Davis
commercial friends we're prepared at the eau
Gus TO shell out the 'sponduliX' literally, and
that an old railroad lobbyist actually operated
pecuniarily among the members to that end.

RICHMOND, January H.-Iuformation from
North Carolina reveals the existence in that
State of a secret organization in Union county,
II is intimated that 1t is revolutionary In char.

he is introduced and made acquainted with the
secrets. The organization will be established I'm

Additional intelligence has reached here of

Freedmen are mostly the victims, but SO terri.

that the civil authorities confess they are afraid
to pureue such villains with the remedies pro.

Too Much Government.

The Hon. GEORGE H. PENDLEToN, in bril-
liant speech, delivered at Milwaukee few
weeks ago, fearlessly laid bare the root of the
evils Of this over-governed country; and,
while appealing to sound sense and sober feel
ing, proved to his hearers BY the logic of facts
that the source of our troubles is excessive
administration, and that our present diStrac-
ted and oppressed condition has grown cut OF
the fraud, corruption and mal-administration"
of the party now in power
If the taxation of the United States for the
year 1866 were distributed equally it would
amount 10 the sum of Sill 46 in gold on every
man, woman and child in the country; or it
would amount to no less than $3.50 upon every
500 of real and personal property in the
United States The liquidatcd debt alone is
equivalent to STA per head, against S91 in
France and Sl2 in free and progressive Prus-
sia. And the immense debt which this repre-
sents has been heaped up by robbery, by
cheating, by open frauds upon the government.
Mr.. PEYDLEToN argues that the ten-forty
bonds alone are payable, interest and princi-
pal, in gold, and deridcs that cry of 'repudia-
ton" which comes with excellent grace from
those who have compelled the working man to
take payment in illegal tenders" and who
have authorized every man who had agreed to
nav hundred dollars in gold to discharge the
debt by paying hundred dollars in paper
He is in favor of paying off the whole bonded
debt in 'legal tenders except those bonds
expressly declared to be payable in gold' but
would only do so as far as might be done with
out initiating the currency beyond safe ana
Just point,-the proposition being that the
whole debt can be paid in greenhacks IN twelve
or fourteen years without the addition of one
dollar TO the taxation or circulating medium
Then let the expenses of the government
exclusive of interest, be reduced to Sl50,OVO,-
900; and, with the present income, the prln-
cipal and interest of the public debt can be
paid off in five years.

tcal and the two following extracts will give
an idea of his views upon the situation Of
affairs in tho South, and the means of saving
the whole country
Military government and the Freedmen's Bu-
reau have been established all over the South.
They cost the people of the country, by appro-,
priations and in other ways, 500, 900 900. And
what have they done? They have subvcrted
civil governments in ten States in the Union.
They hold the life and liberty, and property OF
those States in the mailed hand of military power.
They have subverted the social system; they
have su uoverted the labor system; they have de-
stroyed the supply OF labor; they have turned the
eight hundred thousand blacks from the pursuit
of agriculture and industry to the pursuit OF poll
have, by unjust and arbitrary acts and by still
worse threats, disturbed the repose of the people
of that country until every incentive 10 honest in
dustry is take away; they have utterly destroyed
the ability OF this people to pay their legitimate
share OF the taxation OF the country
MY friends, the first step in the right drec-
ton is to lay bare every fraud, to expose and
correct all corruptons, to cut off every unneces-
saYy expenditure, to dismiss every surperfuous
oficeholder, to abandon every unconstitutional
scheme, to abolish ali military governments, to
return to the achings of our constitution, and
tho endowment of the liberties which 1t specially
assures to u.s. to give repose to the hearts OF the
people, in order that labor may be stimulated
BY the hopes OF a rich reward lor its industry.
lhe rest Of til journey to happiness and safety,
and peace, will be comparatively easy. The irst
step will cost ycu labor. 1t can only be accom-
plished by putting out Of power the Republican
party, and putting IN its place the Democratic
party.

Gently had held his right up for thirty years,
and had let his finger nails grow until they had
penetrated the flesh. Usually there are about
800 priests on the island, but at the time Of the

1t would be queer enough if, instead OF cot
ton, guano should be king. At all events, the
Charleston papers speak in glowing terms OF the
enormous supply of fertilizlng material discover
ed in South Carolina. As to quality, it CONTAINS
from sixty to seventy-iNe per cent. of pure phos-
phate,n and is 'more valuable than the Peru
Wan guano," which brings ninety dollars the ton.
AS to quantity, the deposits ''extcnd Tor mil's
along the Ashley River, ''cover many square miles,
and NAV, 'sproduco s1O,OOO,OOO." AS to accessi-
bility, one bed, at least, is only few miles from
Charleston, and will give to that city, says ono
paper, ga large exporting trade, and create a
business that will speedily restore her former
prestige" The King is dcad-long live the King
