ADDITIONAL PARTICULARS OF BARON Won DER
HEYDT's RETIREMENT.
IRRoM ouR oWN CORRRsPoNpENTl


HEYDT's RETIREMENT.
IPRoM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT
BERLIN, Nov. 1891 am now able to give you some
additional authentic details concerning the retire
ment of Baron Won der Heydt from the finance de-
partment. Every bin bearing his signature or likely
to be traced to his authorship to encounter
violent opposition OF at least strong prejudice in the
Chambers on both sides. The Progressive party and
those members Of the National Liberal party that
formerly belonged to the progressive party, bore him
grudge, it is said, from the time when in 1866 he
managed to find the means for arming the country,
which means had been obstinately refused by the
Liberals, The landed gentry suspected him, the
banker Of Indifference even hostility, to their IN
terests This state of things, well known to the King
and the rest of the Ministry could not escape the OBJ
servatiOn of Baron Won der Heydt; he rendered bis
resignation The King could only bring himself with
difficulty to accept it, bearing as he did grateful
remembrance of past and important services. He
yielded at last to political necessity but did what he
could to sweeten the cup by addressing very kind
letter to Baron won der Heydt and giving him the
highest order of the kingdom, the Black Eagle. To
form an impartial Judgment of the man one thing
should be observed Prussan Minister OF Finances,
in order to be equal to his task, has to combine
two qualfcations-he must be q banker and
well trained official; he must have seen great
deal of city business as well red-tape. Highly
qualified in the former respect Baron der Ieydt
seems not to have been so well prepared as to the
latter to be equal to the task, unavoidable under
present circumstances, of cOnceiving and proponnd
ing q thorough and comprehensive reform OF the
whole financial system.
The present Minister has many advantages over
his predecessor. He is Liberal, although very mod
crate; he proposes to eXtricate Prussia from her
financial embarTassments by well regulated system
of reform instead of by additional taxation; he has
fOr been closely connected
ministratOn of the Department in this respect being
not whit behind Baron Won der Heyt himself,
while Mt the same time he appears to have greater
power to Judge of the expediency OF measures to be
adopted besides to all this he adds the weight OF
Count Bismarck's name which in itself is sufficient
to prevent such detection of the ConseryatyeS as
ruined Won der Heydt. Baron Won der Heydts adj
ministraton of the finances for the last two years
was nothing buta series of blunders moreover he
had not tact enough to secure for himself affirm sup
port in the Chambers, and while making himself
rival of Count Bismarck, he depended solely upon
the King for his support. His failure was great one,
regretted by only one power which IN the end was
insufficient to sustain him.

HANDSOME COMPLIMENTS.

We trust that the readers Of this paper will par
don the egotism with which we might be charged
for publishing the annexed complimentary notices.
The sources from whence they emanate are SO
highly appreciated by US, and the kind express
sions therein contained are so cheering and graft
fytng, that we cannot refrain from reproducing
them in our columns:
MA1yrAIyING ITS HIGH STANDARD.-The Ander-
son Inelligencer, an honor to the State, light OF

Will our friend Hoyt accept our heartiest congrat
uatons, that the Intelhgencer maintains with such
remarkable uniformity the high standard with

tered upon its career ?-Edgsfeld Advertiser.
The Anderson lntakgeacer with its issue Of the

ing alive to the interest and honor Of the Country.
The prosperous condition to which friend Hoyt has
brought his paper, through four years of despon-
dency and gloom that he has had it in charge is
unmistakabe evidence Of his superior ability both
as an editor and publisher. Now that brighter
times ahead are looked for, we trust he may reap
a handsome reward for the energy and persistency
with which he labored through the days of dark

THE APPROACHING ECLIPSE.

Those of our readers who have observed their
slmanacs this year are already aware that there
viii be remarkable total eclipse of the sun on
the eth Of August. The belt of country in the
United States over which the eclipse will appear
total s about 140 miles wide, and from the coast
of North Carolina stretches away, in Dorthwes-
tery direction through that State, Tennessee, Vir
ginia, Kentucky, Indiana, Illinois and Iowa. AS
we are off the line Of total obscuratian, small
portion Of the Southern disk of the sun will be
visible here. Generally speaking, says the alma
nae before US, this eclipse will begin in South
Carolina few minutes before o'clock p. m, in
crease for nearly On hour, when it will reach its
greatest observation, and pass away in about one
hour more. The last total eclipse which passed
over any inhabited parts of our country occurred
in 1884, when the Southern corner of our State
was in the path of the moons shadow, and many
years will elapse before similar occurrence will
take place here.

THE STATE PENITENTIARY.

The escape Of oonvicts from this institution is
becoming quitea nuisance. Every few days we OBJ
serve the mention of another betoh Of prisoners
escaping from the guard, generally composed of
negroes, we believe. In addition to this taking Of
French leave, Gov SCOTT recently pardoned six
teen convicts There are about four hundred in
mates of the Penitentiary, -eigths of whom
are colssed Republican voters. At the present
rate Of Elimination, these will oil have been set at
liberty in ample tine to exercise the right Of saf
aage at the next general election. 1t is also ru-
mored that Gen. SroLBRAND, the Superintendent,
who is likewise Commander of the Grand Army Of
the Republic for this State, has 10000 stands of
arms stored away in the Penitentiary buildings
Are the convicts drilled in the manual. in order to
Git them for the advance guard of the militia:
We are reliably informed that the wall of the
main building has not received single stone since
the removal of Maj LEE from the position of Su-
perinterdent. The outer wall enclosing the grounds
has not progressed any more rapidly. How are
the laborers employed:

REV. SAMUEL a. WEBER.

The friends of this talented young minister will
be pleased to read the Aattering mention made Of
him in the annexed paragraphs. Mr.. WEDEn de.
liyered the annual address before the Alumni
Association of WofFord College. at the recent Com
mencement, and this effort is referred to as fol-
lows by the correspondent of the Charleston
Courier:
On Tuesday afternoon the address before the
Alumni was made by Rev. Saml. A. Weber. His
theme chiefly was the Bible and its divinity, as
reflected, demonstrated and sustained by the
achievements of the world of science. 1t was q
learned and able production. With mind OF
unusual vigor and grasp for one so comparatively
young, the Reverend speaker grappled with the
profound and intricate of science and metaphy-
sizes, and came forth laden with beauties and with
weapons FURNISHED from The conflict. His closing
remarks, addressed to the Alumni specially, were
very touching He called the long roll Of honored
names who had perished in the late war, sank
down in glory's bed, martyrs Of their loved South
He is q graduate Of Woford College and reflects
great credit upon himself and the institution.
The Spartanburg Spartan speaks as follows Oh
the same subject:
This young divine gave, in this oration, fair
exempi6cation of the high order of his talents and
requirements, which, if physically sustained, are
full of most gratifying promise Of extensive USE
fuluess. His subject was the relation of Science
and Revelation, and their reciprocal influence Ii
was the highest degree creditable to both the head
and heart Of the speaker.

THE CUSTOM HOUSE WAR IN CHARLESTON
CHARLESTON, July "a.

CHARLESTON, July "a
Much excitement prevails here among the two
wings Of the Republicans DR.. Mackey, the late
Collector, leads the native wing, which includes
the mass Of the colored voters while Senator
SAWYER, Congressman Bowen and George w. Clark,
the newly-appointed Collector, in the place of
Mackey, head the Northern element. The remov-
al of Mackey has intensified the bitterness between
the two factions. On Thursday, Clark called on
Mackey and, presenting his commission. deman-
dcd instant possession of the Collectors Office.
Mackey refused to vacate until he had taken in
yentores of the public property and received re-
ceipts from Clark but promised to make the trans
fer ON the Slst instant Clark insisted on the inl-
mediate surrender, which being refused, he enter
ed Nackey's Office and attempted 10 act as Collec-
tor, whereupon he was foroiby elected by Mackey s
subordinates Yesterday afternoon, Mackey and
other custom house officials were arrested, ut the
instance of Clark, on charge of assault and OBJ,
strueting IN officer of revenue, and were bound
over to answer before the United States Commits
sloner ON Manday During the hearing OF the
case. Clark, with posse of thirty men, forced his
way into the custom house and took possession,
which he still retains. The partisans of Clark
attempted to serenade Sawyer and Bowen last
night but the colored Republicans rallied in large
numbers and prevented the serenade, charging the
procession and capturing the flag, which they car
Yied in triumph to Mackey, at his residence The
colored Republicans bitterly denounce the action
of the administration in removing Mackey, and
declare that Clark, the new Collector, is traitor
to the radical party.
