THE MIssINa DEPUTY COLLECTOR is
reported that after the missing and alleged
defaulting deputy Custom House collector
Blatchford had mysteriously disappeared, and
after he was held to be fugitive from justice,
his resignation of his Office was received and
accepted by Collector Grinnell as if from an
honest man. This charge, no doubt, is ga
weak invention" Of some Of the enemies Of
the Collector, disappointed as office seekers;
but still the public have the right to know, the
delinquent deputy's leave of absence having
expired, whether he has been dismissed or not
for his failure to report for duty. This failure
called at once for his dismissal, to say nothing
Of the criminal charges against him.
Nor THE MATERIAL FOR SLAvRs.-It Is evi-
dent that the coolies are race from which
slaves cannot be made. Whoever has any
fear that we shall only cultivate new system
OF slavery in the encouragement OF Chinese
emigration on the most extended scale, or by
the transportation of Asiatic labor even un-
willingly, may take comfort from the general
disposition Of the coolies to revolt on ship
board, as shown more remarkably in some
recent instances. Already the coolie trade
has its annals garnished by many bloody
story Of massacre and these stories are suf-
ficient guarantee that the coolies will take
tolerable care Of themselves. Already, with
out the hostility Of any government, that trade
is more dangerous than the African slave
trade was with English, French and American
men-of-war always on the lookout for Offend
ers. His desperate readiness to strike for his
freedom is a new feature in favor of the coolie
as an American laborer.

NEWS FROM WASHINGTON.

WASHINGTON, September 2s.-Under the cap
tiop, minister Sickles Sustained by the Ad-
ministration, the Chronicle has the following
editorial paragraph:
Those officers OF the Cabinet who have ut
tered an opinion on the question say there is
nothing in the communication OF Minister
Sickles to the Spanish Government TO justify
the alarm that imperfect disclosures have
created. and concludes: "Secretary Fish de-.
clines to make the note OF Minister Sickles
public for prudential reasons, but it is cafe to
say that there will be no such thing done as
backing down. 1t is safe to reiterate that the
State Department apprehends no Warlike re-
suits, and will favor, the tender OF GOOD cfhces
having been thankfully declined by Spain,
mastery inactivity"
Sickles' injudicio1s use OF words alone, it is
supposed, caused the hubbub. The text OF
Slckles' note has not yet been received.
Shureman, charged, while messenger Of the
trNsury, with taking national notes and forg-
ing signatures, aud in whose transactions Tur-

hotels in the country. The rooms are light
airy and we'll furnished, the table is well sup
piled; the cooking is good, and the servants
are polite and attentive. The proprietors,
Messrs. German & Badenhop, talk of making
many improvements in the arrangement of the
house, but they and their able assistants,
Messrs. Davis and Kinloch, have already
brought the Columbia hotel into the first
rank, and made it as comfortable and pleasant
in every way as any one could desire.

The work of making ready the State capital
for the reception Of the General Assembly is
progressing finely, and if there is any virtue

The frame work of the main building for the

transatlantic spiritual wife. He adores the
feminine virtues, which he places far beyond
all the masculine ones; expatiates on the beauty
OF the female character which he thinks is to
be the rule Of the future. Perhaps. though,
be goes of into panegyrics on the Vikings and
the Berserkers, or else p1unges boldly into the
miste OF the Arthurian era, and gushes in
obsolete English about chivalry and the Round
Table, Sir Launcelot and the Holy Graal, to
the bewilderment of his entranced audience, to
whom he does not supply glossary. In re-
igon he is generally mystic, and always in
extremes. He can never be pinned down to
logic, to facts, to reason; and to his mind the
golden mean is the sin for which the Laodicean
Church was cursed, Feeling and emotion and
imagination do all the work Of the world accor-
ding to him; and when he is asked to reason
and to demonstrate, he answers with the lofty
air OF one secure Of the better way, that he
loves, and that love sees further and more
clearly than reason.
If the strong-minded woman is mistake
among women, so is the gushing man among
men. Fluid, unstable. without curb to govern
or rein to guide, he brings into the masculine
world all the mental frailtes Of the feminine,
and adds to them the force Of his own charac-
ter and nature as man. Whatever he may be
he is q disaster, and at all times is associated
with failure. He is the revolutionary leader
who gets up abortive risings-the schemer
whose plans run into sand-the poet whese
books are read only by school girls, or lie on
the publishers shelves uncut, as his gushing
ness bubbles over into twaddle, or exhales
itself in the smoke of obscurty-the fanatic
whose faith is more madness than philosophy
the man of society who is the butt Of bis male
companions and the terror of his lady acquain-
tances-the father OF o family which he does
his best, unintentionally, to ruin by neglect or
by eccentricity of training-and the husband OF
a woman who either worships him in blind be-
lief or who laughs at him in secret, as heart or
head p1eponderates in her character. In any
case he is man who never finds the fitting
time or place, and who dies as he has lived,
with everything about him incomplete.

THE PoPE's REPLY TO DIR. CUMMINGS.
LONDON, September M.-The Pope has GENT
o communication to Cardinal Manning in refer.
10 the proposal Of DR.. Cummings to appear at
the E umenical Council. The Pope refers DR..
Cummings to the terms Of the letter Of invita-
tion sddresse6to Protestants, and says he will
find It is an invitation not to discussion, but
only to profit by the opportunity, and return to
the church. The Pope. says. ia conclusion,
there is no room at tue council for the defence
Of errors already condemned.
The Times, commenting on The above. says
the decision Of Rome on DR.. Cummings appi-
cation is pronounced with unexpected prompti-
tude. The Pope must have acquainted himself
with. the purporte Of DIR. Cummings letter
through the newspapers and replied before
its receipt. DR.. Cummings is to be congratu-
lated on the authoritative reply elioited. The
Pope speaks plainly. II DR.. Cummings had
considered the claims Of the church, he would

TIE POLICY OF CHINA.
The Pail NAH Gazette reviews the idea OF
Chinese policy put forth BY Mr.. Browne, late
American Minister to China. 1t says the sum
Of bis argument is the opening Of new mar
kets to Christian traders. In point OF fact,
there is nothing 10 show that the Difficult
ties between. foreigners and the Chinese are
merely questions Of Interpretation. Atruer
account would be that the former forced the
Chinese to grant privileges which the latter,
not daring to Withdraw, seek to eyade. The
e1tortiou Of such pffYlleges is mistake. II
intercourse with China is to be better than
series Of little wars, we must becontent tornea-
sure the right ottrade with China by her viii

CHINESE SERVANTS.
The Housewives Problem Solved at Last.

.
A correspondent of the Cincinnati CONNER
cial writes as follows from San Francisco:
The problem which every housewife in the
world has been watching with interest from
the BEGINNING of timeis going 10 be solved, 80
far as this country is concerned, by the China
man. In the capacity OF house servants he has
not, according to the universal opinion here
among housekeepers, o serious fault or any
dlssgreeable habit from which itis not possible
to break him in very short time. They are
very tidy; they like steady employment, uni
form ways, and ask few privileges; they are
honest, frugal, careful, and industrious, and
take great pride in the excellence OF their work,
whether in cooking, or in chamberWork, or as
body servants or as general walters, or Den
bows, They do all classes Of work tl.at the
American servant girl does. Many OF them in
this State are even employed as child nurses
and seamstresses.
A lady with whom eonversed here, the wife
of banker and very prominent gentleman.
ssye she has had many years experience with
the Chinese as house servants. and that
Eastern people.can form no idea OF the cleanli-
ness of the Cinnamon and their general excel

mendstion that can be given, considering how
plenty servants are here. AS tor their vases,

To the People ofSouth Carolina:
The above Company was organ zed in 1866, in
consequence of the wholesale forfeiture OF Southern
policies by Northern companies. The unparalleled
success of the enterprise has forced several of these
companies to restore their Southern policies. from
the fact that they could not operate in our midst
u1thedt tho appearance Of honesty.
We keep all our money at home to build up our
impoverished country-every dollar of premium
being safely invested in the State from which is de-
rived. The institution ispurey Southern, and hence
should appeal with great force to the patriotism and
and sympathy of every Southern heart.
'Tis not our purpose to make war on other COM
panles but to exhibit the special advantages offered
by this purely Southern Company-founded on
patriotism and solid wealth. It's ratio CT assets to
labilities-the true test Of companys strength-is
second to none on this continent. being nearly $500
to 500.
Whenever and wherever we have presented the
claims of this Company 1t has not only enlisted the
sympathes of people, but has also secured their
hearty cooperation. We have secured GOO policies
in South Carolina since the 10th of February. We
number among our Directors General Wade Hamp-
