THE JoBBERy HEAD0U4REERs.

There Is no portion OF our city which during
| the past year has echoed more constantly the
/ cheerful ring OF the trowel and hammer, than the
vicinity Of the Charleston Eote. The MOTEL itself
has been thoroughly reftted and painted, and
now the wide.awake proprietors are again i'm.
proving. Indeed there is scarcely assessor when
some movement to promote the comfort and con
yenienee Of the guests Of this establishment Is
not going on. The dining hall is being touched
up for the winter, and changes are to be made in
Its decoration.
On Hayne street, our country friends will note
the restoration Of many Of the old and well
known business stands. During the war quite
number Of these stores were burned anG injured
.by the bombardment Of the city. Last year
few OF them were rendered, available for bust
ness purposes, but not until this season mas TINS
street resumed In full Its former air OF bustle anu
importance. To-day we see faces here which
have for years past been familiar on King and
Meeting or East Bay streets. Gentlemen; who
have been known formerly only In retail lines Of
business, have moved into the newly-ntted and
admirably adapted stores here, and established
wholesale houses, .epd now there Is hardly a
branch OF trade not represented In the short but
busy street. ,:,-<l
-tFhe new store Of Messrs. D. O'Nell + Sons, No.
80, Is one Of the hcndsomest buildings that has
been erected In our city since the war. 1t Is three
stories high, and Of the same length and width
as most OF the stores on this street. Four large
doors, with semt.eircular headings, open on the
street, and five square iron coinmns, OF brown
ish color with corinthian capitals, constitute the
front OF the first story; the second and
third stories have each four :wiadows, with
seml-clrcular headings on the front; and
q square parapet crowns the whole. The front,
irrom the second door up, is finished with cream
colored cement. The work was supervised BY
Mr.. Daniel Lyons Of this city. The lot In the
rear, extending through to Market street, with
the buildings thereon, has also been purchased by
the Messrs. o,Neill, and win be used for storing
purposes. These. gentlemen have recently re-
moved their wholesale department to this stand,
where, In future, they will be happy to see their
friends from the country. They win continue
the retail trade at their old stand on King street,

THE WHITES AND REDS.

The Defeat of the "Red Stocsinss,'-wha

The special correspondent Of the Cincinnati
Gazette in his report Of the recent baseball match
between the White and Red Stockings, at Chicago,
We were beaten! We know it, we feel 1T, but
how could we help it? The umpire vas against us,
the weather was against us, the crowd was against

where they were doomed to be sacrificed at about II
O'Clock on Wednesday evening, and at once sought
their temporary abiding place-the Briggs House.

ious-lOoking countenances told too well that they
hailed from Cincinnati and were looking for faint

faces Of the gallant boys On the way to the ground

Terrible eHurrIcane.Awfni Loss ef Life at Ma
taDzas-Apprenticed Negroes Liberated.
HAVANA, Oct. 16.-Captain-G de Rodas
has issued an order liberating two thousand ap-
prenticed negroes captured from slavers in the
years 1855, 1885, and 1857.
Steamship Lost.
The French mail steamer Darien has been lost
fifteen miles to the windward of Guantanamo.
All hands saved.
On Friday night there was
severe Hurricane
in the bay. But slight damage was done,
however, to vessels and the property in the city.
Trees were prostrated, but no houses. In
the country, growing cane and other crops were
damaged.
Disaster at Matanzas.
A hurricane has also occurred at Matanzas,
with most disastrous effects. Communication
between that place and Havana was interrupted
till to-day. An extraordinary rise of two rivers
inundated the intervening ground where the
railway depots were located, and the depots,
trains, passengers and houses all disappeared.
Two Thousand Persons
are said to have been lost The damage to pro-
perty was enormous.
The steamship Missouri sailed from this port
for New York, but when two miles off Moro
Castle encountered heavy sea, and was COM
PEELED to return.
The steamer of the British line hence for St.
Thomas was obliged to put into Matanzas on
account of the heavy weather.
Sugars-Prices are stiff, but unchanged. The
business is large.
Another despatch from Havana says the
Effects of the Hurricane
upon the island are much worse than at first
supposed. The disasters at Matanzas are con-
firmed. No particulars have been received.
The heavy weather renders communication by
sea between Havana and Matanzas impossible.
Suffering at Cardenas.
HAVANA. Oct. 16.-Cardenas also suffered
mnch from the hurricane of Friday. The lower
part of the city was laid waste. The interior of the
| island back of Cardenas and Matanzas is DESC
lated.l The cane being somewhat backward this
season, sustains less damage than other crops.
The hurricane was the severest which has
visited this island within a century. The fol-
lowing is q list of the total wrecks at Matanzas:
| The Vessels Damaged.
Brig Baxter, of New York; bark Hunt of
Portland; brig Charles E. of Portland; schooner
Edwin, of Bridgeport.
The following vessels were damaged: :-Schoon-
er Palmer, of Bath, and bark Mary.
There was great loss to cooperage and stock
in the warehouses on the low ground at Matan-
zas, which were all destroyed. The influx OF
| the sea caused great rise in the rivers, and
when the sea receded everything was swept
away by lhe returning food.

When Bismarck spoke these words all Europe was
in deep peace, and no one could have foreseen the
thorough thrashing which the Germans would give
the French - -
''Thesc diplomatists at small courts Bismarck
continues. taking up another subject, "are an un-
mitjgated nuisance; shallow, lazy fellows who do
not see and observe public AFFAIRS but pick up court
gossip from the chambermads or ladies-in-waiting.
What can you do with these good-for-nothing cos
mopolitan loiterers7 cannot act as should like
to, but since have been at the head OF the foreign
department have at least cut down the list of the
fatherandless exceencies TO one-half Of their ORR
ginal number" In this way he went on for an hour
with scarcely an interruption.
The popularity, however which he has won by two
successful wars, will, apprehend, wither in the
time OF peace. Bismarck has neither interest for
nor understanding OF civil freedom, sef-govern-
ment, and constitutional liberty. He is a despotc
character he is an ingrained legitimist, who con-
sders it O social calling to hold down popular de-
veopment II It does not directly serve his purposes.
What Germany next needs is a Bismarck for its
home policy, q man who knows how to develop
more fully or rather to give free scope to, those
rich resources and quality Of character by which
Germany has just won the admiration Of the civilized
world and earned the hatred OF the French and the
Fenians. In her days OF misfortune and national
degradation she had such man in the great Baron
Stein Will she be less productive In the success OF
her military greatness and prosperity?

WAsHINeToN, Oct. 17.-The Hon. Benjamin
Vaughn Abbott one of the Commissioners for
the Revision of the Statutes, now holding daily
sessions here, publishes card concerning the
effects OF the repeating clause In the new patent
law, which has been under consideration by the
commissioners. He states that the new patent
law appears to give full effect to the
evident legislative purpose, without
creMing confusion or embarrassment
in other branches of the public service. The

with grave apprehensions that the objections
so positively urged against the act of 1870
could not be surmounted by any rule of legal

of the statement employed by the act is very
concise, hut it is not too concise to
afford reliable guide. Rhode Island has
labors of Mr.. Jenckes, to whom one hardly
knows how truely the framing of the clause In
question is attributed in general law reform;

United States steamer Plymouth.
Despatch TO the Associated Press
WASHINGTON, Oct. IA letter from on
board the United States steamer Plymouth in
the English channel, dated the latter part of
September, just received here, 1--WE
passed a large number of vessels this afternoon,
among them Frenchman, of our size, passed
us going out. We showed our flag, and she kept
on for about mile, when, suspecting that all
was not right, she came after us full tilt. We
went to quarters and loaded the guns and
waited for him to come up. We logged along
at our usual rate of speed (six knots), and
Frenchy after us, with hiscrew at their quar-
ters. He came up on the starboard quarter, and
we thought he intended putting shot across
our bows, so we lowered the first ports and ran
out the 11-inch gun, when he showed off and
went aWaY.n
