CHI A R LES TON.
THURSDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 8, 1861
The Daily News-rho Cash System.

When the price Of The DAILY NEWS was re-
duced to six dollars year, we resolved to in
sist upon the payment of subscriptions in ad-
vance. This rule was Immediately applied to
our mail subscribers, and at this time we have
not subscril or outside of Charleston, who
has not paid in vance the price Of his sub
scription. We GO , no credit, and the paper
was invariably stopped when the term tor
which payment had been made expired. The
experience of the past year has confirmed our
belief that the cash system is the only plan
ulon which paper can be conducted with
safety and success, and We have therefore de-
termined to apply that system uniformly to our
subscribers in Charleston.
On the 18th instant, oil papers fer which the
subscription price has not been paid will be
stopped without further notice, and from that
date no paper will be delivered after the e3pi-
ration of the time for which payment has been
made.
In order to accommodate persons who may
be uppropared to pay the subscription in ad-
vance, ne have made arrangements to deliver
The News within the city limits at fifteen cents
week, instead of eighteen cents as heretofore
payment to be made weekly. This reduction
of the weekly rates will 80 into effect on the
18th iust Orders from weekly subscribers viii
be received at this office, or at the bookstore
of Mr.. c. C. Fighter: No. 161 King-strcot.

that the conduct of the administration
wes illegal, and their declaration was
Immediately signed by over fifty mem
bcrs Of the bar. The papers which were
seized stopped printing the lists, but
the others still printed them, showing
each day greater number of the foremost
names in France, while nearly all the papers
denouncc severely both the blunder of the
government and the inequality with which
it apportons the administration of justice.
No more seizures we're made BY the gov
ernment, but the prosecutions were pressed
ou with vigor, and the dispatches yesterday
announced that the editor of the Reveii had
been sentenced to two months imprison-
ment and fine of two thousand francs, the
editors Of the Tribune and Avenir to fine
of two thousand francs each, and the Temps
and Journal de Paris to O fine of one thou
sand francs each.
Of course no one cares much for Baudin,
but the circumstances of his death were
capable of being converted into telling de-
monstration against the government, which,
by its war upon the press, had excited the
quiet and deep seated animosty of the edu-
Gated masses Had the administration been
wisely passive, the movement would have
died natural death; but the violent meas
ures which have been taken have excited
the malcontents and Liberal leaders to speak
more freely and boldly than they had done
for many years. The puissant master of
many legions is not likely to recoil from the
storm which he has copjured up, and yet
Frenchmen are less willing to pardon q
blunder than to overlook q crime. Blunder
upon blunder, mistake upon mistake, would
make insecure the throne of any monarch of
France, and the 'Baudin affair" is another
important indication that the empire is ra-
pidly growing weaker where it should have
sought its lasting strengthen the respect
and confidence of the people.

tends that lenient policy on the part OF the
dominant party is all that is required TO bring
about full return to peace and prosperity.
He predicts that Grants admins ration VIII
be eminently liberal and conservative, -and Its
first and leading mission will be to bring

The Indian war continues, and General
Sherman's report furnishes good reason to be-
lieye that he will havea rough job to subdue
them. There is no satisfaction in lighting
with these redskins. Thoy are Ubiquitous
and defeated in one place, they appear IN
another, and the first we hear OF them Is
through their ravages. The General says that
summer does not favor the SEPARATIONS OF his
army against them, because they have plenty
of provender, aud know the country so well
that he cannot get at them. He will attack
them. however, in their new winter quarters
and either drive them out of their villages to
perish in the SHOWS Of the wilderness, or dc-
stroy them in their wigwams.
Despite the statements published from day
to dav to the effect that the instruction IN
Cuba is gaining ground, those familiar with
the condition of affairs in that island express
the belief that the uprising there will amount
to nothing. The population Of Cuba is about
100000. More than half of this population
consists OF negroes (free and slave) and OF
Chinese laborers. These classes are po~eriess
for revolutionary purposes, and certainly up
to this time have shown no disposition to take
part in the present insurrection, except few,
the immediate dependents Of those concerned
in it. The white population of Cuba is divided
into Spaniards and native Cubans, or Creoles.
The first are devoted adherents Of the
mother country, looking upon either lnde-
pendence or annexation to this country with
horror. The native Cubans are more progress
sive in their views, and, many of them being
educated in the United States, have moro or
less liking for Republican institutions. Ihey
would not as o class object to annexation 20
this country, but it must come IN an orderly
wav, and not through annexation. Both Span
iards and Cubans are alike, however, in nat
ural love Of ease and habits Of Incidence, in
disposing them 10 plunge into revolution at
the risk Of losing life, property and home.
Taking out, therefore, from the population OF
the island, the negroes, Chinese, merchants,
and planters, and there is nothing left to base
q successful revolution upon. 1t is estimated,
by competent judges, that the whole number
of persons engaged in this insurrcctionary
movement does not really amount to FIVE hum
cred persons. The region dominated ny Pu-
orto Principe is mountainous, and the occupa-
ton of the people principally the raising OF
cattle. Tley are the rouehest and widest OF
all the population of the Island, and the insur-
reotionary force composed of this element is
guerilla organization, difficult to suppress in
their mountainous retreats, but which is capa-
BILE OF effecting little in the way OF organized
warfare.

Direct Trade and the Future Lf
Charleston.

The value of direct, safe and expeditions
communication with European markets, is
not yet fully understood in the South; nor
is it's full Importance realized in Charles
ton, although direct steamship line to Liv-
ernoo has been established with the fair
est prospec. CO saccess. A direct trade
with Europe does not merely add to the
business profits of the factor, the broker
and shipping agent. Its advantages are
confined within 10 narrow bounds, for it is
not too much to say that the root and source
of the greatness of such cities as New York
and Baltimore is their direct trade with
the "Old World"
We do not expect Charleston in the
course of generation to rival the CONNER
cal opulence of New York; but the causes
of the wondrous progress Of that city may
be made the causes of parallel growth of
this; and circumstances similar to those
which nave caused the population Of Balti-
more to Increase in thirty-eight years from
eighty thousand to three hundred thousand,
may be made the lever by which to raise
Charleston to position as high and as Sc
cure as that which Baltimore now holds
Cotton is the CHIEF article of export from
the United States to Europe. 1t is this sta
pie, the product of the Southern States,
which is relied on to balance the immense
imports OF the country. The South gives
TO the United States the means Of paying
for the products and manufactured goods of
Europe. 1t is the South alone which gives
the great staple which is paid for in Euro
pean gold, not in an inconvertible currency;
and nine -tenths cf the profit growing out of
the handling and shipment cf this staple
and of the articles imported in exchange
for its selling price, has hitherto gone into
the purses Of the merchants in the North,
who haze, by the riches coming FROM South

themselves the princes of the world Of

The Last Blundcr of Napoleon.

The Baudin affair, which has been fire.
quently referred to of late in our cable tel
egrams from Europe, promises to cause the
French Government no little trouble and
danger. NAPOLEON has gone so far that he
cannot well recede, and each forward step
is fraught with pcrple1ity and peril 1t is
one Of those peculiar cases in which success
may prove more dangerous than defeat,
and where, nevertheless, defeat must, if
possible, be avoided.
Alphonse Baudin, member of the French
Republican Assembly of 1S4S, was shot and
killed by the soldiers of Louis Napoleon
Bonaparte on the third of December, 1851,
the day of the coup d'etat, while in the act
of shouting to the people "vive la Consti-
tuition! vive la Republique!" Upon the
second of November, the feast of All Souls,
it is the custom in Catholic countries to de-
corate with flowers the graves of the dead.
The exact place where Baudin was buried
became known to the people of Paris upon
All Souls Day, four weeks ago, nnd few
days la,er LAvenir National, leading
Liberal paper, announced the opening, at
its Office, of subscription for the purpose
of raising q monument to his memory. On
the eighth instant the same journal printed
the list of subscribers, and the whole of its
issue, in the news shops and at the post
office, was seized By the government. No
notice or explanation was given to the edi-
tors or proprietors of L'Arenir, which
printed the lists again on the ninth and tenth,
with the same result. AS it now became
certain that the government intended 10
prevent this publication, several other oppo-
sition papers, believing the seizure to be
illegal, Immediately opened lists of subscri-
bers in their offices, heading them with the
names of their principal contributors, and
published the lists in their columns. These
papers-.he Rcveil, the Tribune and the
Revue Politique-are all Of them in opposl-
tion to the government, aud they were i'm
mediately prosecuted, together with L Ave.
mir, under the law which Furnishes by iue
and Imprisonment the crime of "mar~uv-
"ring with the design of stirring up haired
"or contempt against the government of the
Emperor
Upon the evening Of the tenth, the Temps,
an influential and cautious paper, said that
the rumored assumption by the administra-
ton of the right to forbid the simple
act of subscribing for the erection of q
monument 10 the memory of Baudin would
amount to violation OF the law, "and would
Impose on ali citizens the duty of protest
.ing against it," The Temps said, further,
that it gave no faith 10 the rumor, and
would put it to the proof Immediately BY
opening the subscription in lis office. Other
journals Of the highest standing in Paris,
among them the Steele aud Journal de Pa
ris, and ten or twelve of the most influential
journals in the departments, followed the
Temps at once. The opinion Of three
eminent French lawyers was obtained
