Light Literature.

AsMoDEUs IN New YORK. Longchamps g. Co.,
New York.
This book attempts to initiate the adven-
lures of LeSage's famous Diable Boiteu1,
and succeeds-about as we'll as might have
been expected. It's locale affords it an op-
por,unity of being coarse and prurient.
while its frequent misstatements Of the con-
dition of the negroes Of the South previ-
Gus to and during the continuance of the war,
give it all the air of Radical campaign
paper. 1t is likely, therefore, to be popu-
lar among the sensationalists of the North,
and will probably fulfil the aim of its pub
lication and put money in the purse of some
worthy Iago. AS an exposure of the social
sores which infest the great representative
city of Am erica, the book has some interest
and value, and there are some shrewd re-
marks upon this and cognate topics which
will amuse and instruct reader who has
time for such frothy literature.

CHI A r L E S TON.
TUESDAY MORNING, ocToBERe7, 1868.
For President. ........ .HoRAT10 SEYMOUR.
For Tiee-presile,,t. :. FRANCIS p. BLAIR.
MIR. Seymour on the Stump.

The third day of November is now 80
near, that Mr. SEYMOUR, despite his great
ability and personal popularity, will be able
to do but little in dispelling the gloom and
distrust which overhangs, as with pail,
the fortunes Of the National Democracy.
Time alone could convince the "doubtful
voters" of the North that the Democratic
leaders and the Democratic masses looked
to peaceful and constitutional agencies
alone for the vindication Of violated con-
stitution and the restoration of downtrod-
den land; and the thirst for quiet and fear
of dissension which enabled the Republi-
cans to oarry Indiana, Pennsylvania and
Ohio two weeks ago, cannot be allayed and
calmed by even the reassuring words of the
Democratic chieftain. Yet we are glad to
see Mr.. SEYMOUR in the front of battle, for
we feel that to him is due but little, if any,
of the blame which must be attached 10 those
who have heaped blunder on blunder until
success is we'll nigh impossible.
Had the Democratic journals of the coun-
try been unshaken in their faith, and await
ed With oalmness the official returns Of the
October elections, the Democratic party
would now have been in e condition to meet
its opponents With at least an unbroken
front. But the pusiilanimity Of certain
leading journals, and their recommendation
of change of candidates at the eleventh
hour, so demoralized the party that no
addresses or appeals can give them back
the confidence they felt before. The Demo-
cracy of the country have been disposed to
believe that they were betrayed by the men
whom they had honored most, and no e1-
PLANTATION will calm the indignation of the
sturdy few who never doubted, or arouse
again the hopes Of the timid many who have
given way to despair.
But Mr. SEYMOUR, if he cannot do much
to help his own election, can be of great
service in securing the success of the New
York Democratic State ticket. Encouraged
by their recent victories, and the open
dependency of their antagonists, the Radi-
calls are making desperate efforts to carry
New York State. They seem to be earnest
aud hopeful, and it is an indication Of Dem
oc7atic danger that it should have been
thought necessary to bring Mr. SEYMOUR
into the field. In the State, and for the
State ticket, he can do much, and will,
there is every reason to believe, save New
York from longer experience of the bless
ings of Radical dominion. 1t is of vast
Importance to carry the State in the inter-
est of the Democracy, and in this particular
Mr.. SEYMOUR can probably give more
strength to the canvass than any other man
in the party.

Mark Twain tells the following story OF one
of the small republics of South America:
"There was war in one of these little repub-
lcs-the one have been describing. The
general-in-chief asked the President for three
hundred men; the President ordered the Min
lister Of War to furnish them; the forces-lust
the number wanted--were down on the sea-
coast somewhere The Minister of War re-
ouested the Minister of the Navy to place the
navy of the republic at the disposal of the
troops, so that they might have transportation
to the seat of war. The Minister OF the Navy
IAN official who had seen as little OF ships and
oceans as even MIR. Secretary Welles} sent
courier to where the schooner was with the
necessary order for the Lord High Admiral.
The Lord High Admiral VIZ Jte back: Your
Excellency, it is impossible. You must be
aware that this is q sixty-ton schooner. Ihere
ia not room enough for three hundred men IN
her. The stern old salt in the navy ONCE
wrote backs: Impossible! Nonsense. Make
room. Heave the tons overheard and bring
the soldiers Any way to get them there, so
they get them there, was all this brave sea-
horse called for"
A novel swindle has been carried on in
Jersey City for some months past. TIE opera
tor-called C. @. Clarke--sent envelopes con-
tanning genuine ten cent stamp to all parts
Of the country This was accompanied bya
decoy circular stating that the stamp was OF
his own manufacture and Offering to sell the
same at the rate of eight dollars per thousand
copies. The strictest secresy was, Of course,
enjoined. In few days the harvest began to
come in. Clarke was perfectly inundated with
letters, each containing money in sums varying
from two TO fifty dollars, and requesting imme-
date transmission of the coveted stamps. The
money was pocketed and 30 were the letters,
and the successful swindler laughed to himself
at the credulity Of his dupes. So large a cor
respondence soon aroused tho suspicious of
the Postmaster at Jersey City, which he,com-
'1iuuicated' to- headquarters. Investigations
were set on foot which resulted in the seizure
OF a great many letters-and the escape of the
culprit. There the matter stands. The let
ters now on hand will be returned to the writ
ers with their; enve' opes intact, but the great
bulk of the money is beyond recovery.

Montgomery and Charleston.

We have already mentioned the fact that
there has been no through rate for freight
from Montgomery to New York ria Charles
ton, because the Montgomery and West
Point Railroad will not make or accept a
through rate which is not twenty or twenty
FIVE per cent higher than the rate uia Sa-
vannah. The Montgomery and West Point
Railroad demanded its full local rates, and
so anxious were the connecting lines ria
Charleston to give the public every possible
accommodation, that they cut from the gum
they were receiving for transporting freight
between West Point and New York enough
to allow them to pay the West Point its
local rates, and still leave the rates from
Montgomery to New York the same as ria
Savannah. To this, however, the West
Point Railroad objected, on the ground that
it was thus made party TO through rate
ria Charleston not exceeding the through
rate ria Savannah. The liberal policy of
The Charleston daily news. [volume] (Charleston, S.C.) 1865-1873, 1868-10-27
the Charleston interest was thus again frus-

the Charleston interest was thus again frus-
trated -
1t need not, in the face of these facts, be
supposed, however, that the West Point
Railroad is actuated by any hatred of
Charleston or love of Savannah. Not long
ago the Montgomery and West Point Rail-
road labored under great financial embar-
rassments The pecuniary relief that was
wanted could only be obtained from the
Savannah interest, and the loan was made
to the company uion condition that it
should not be party to any through rate
via Charleston which was not higher than
the rate between the same points ria Savan-
nah There was no way of evading this
demand, and the line between Montgomery
and West Point was closed against Charles
ton.
Without denying the assertion that Sa-
vannah paid for an exclusive privilege and
is entitled to enjoy what she bought, we
may fairly direct attention to the conduct
eof this city under similar circumstances.
When, ten or twelve years ago, Charleston
subscribed nearly one million of dollars for
completing her Western connections, she
made no attempt to cut off her sister city
from o share in the Western trade. Charles
ton paid the money and went into the field
as competitor with interests which nae
contributed nothing. Free and fair COM
petition was her maxim, and her business
showed that she need not fear any open and
legitimate adverse combination. Ana later
still, when Charleston was offered exclusive
privileges, when the offer was made to dis
crimirste in her favor, she rejected the
proposition and allowed her rivals to have
in oil respects an equal chance with herself.
