wealth Of the Carpet-Baggers.

The Charleston News says: When
Governor Scott left Ohio TO come 10
this State he paid taxes upon blind
mare, valued at $ll 10, and delapi-
dated chaise valued at IS. For two
wears he has been Governor OF South
Carolina at salary Of $1,000 year
And now, according to his own admis-
sion, he is worth $4,000. Where is
the man that believes that this huge
sum was come by honestly? Let him
step forward"
Bullocks wealth might prove curl
Gus subject of investigation: True, he
pays no taxes except his poll, and that
irregularly, but it is understood that he
is a member Of the Kimball ring, while
he and Blodgett share the profits OF the
STATE road-from forty to sixty thousand
dollars month-equally between them,
At this rate his nest must be pretty well
feathered.-Sdrannah Republican.

FINANCE AND TRADE.
New York Money Market.
20. New YoRK, August 16

ICAc, New YORK, August 16.
In Wall street dizziness is the pfinci
pal feature of the market. Private
cable kilograms to leading bankers as
serted that the engagements Of yester
day ended in favor Of the Prlrssians
that the French fortress at Marsaille
was captured; that a revolution was
imminent in Paris, and that the grow
ing hostility to the Bonaparte family
caused the Emperor to be very much
detected. Under this news gold declined
ic, and the share list advanced 2@3c,
with very limited transactions. Late in
the day the decline in gold recovered.
The stock market sustained the ad
vance, while governments remained sta
t:onary.
MONEY-Market active at 4@6 per
cent. The hardening tendency is due
in some measure to the sympathy with
the condition of monetary affairs in
in other cities, and the fear that the
banks may call in loans in consequence
of the drain Of currency. In Boston
money is in good demand, while in
Philadelphia it is stringent, and at New
Orleans positive pressure exists.
Prime discounts los per cent; little
business. Foreign exchange firm.
There is increasing ease in money at
London, and an anticipated further re-
duction in the Bank of England rate of

According to unofficial statistics re
Gently published in Berlin, the German
populations Of Europe number fiftsfoul
millions. This estimate inelades aeer'
lain porfion of the other races hinder
kGerman rule, with whom the official
language has insensibly taken the place
of their native tongues. Forty-nlne
millions inhabit a compact territory,
and are subjects of different German
soyerigns. About five millions, or a
little more than one-tenth of the whole
number, are denizens OF nonGerman
States The German language is spoken
in Europe throughout space Of ter
ritory equal in extent to 270,0C0 square
miles; five-sevenths Of the soil Of Prus-
STA and eightninths Of her population
are included in this vast tract. The
foreign races still existing in German
speaking countries number about mil
lion and a quarter, and Of these more
than one-half are Prussian subjects.
Fifty percent Of these however, speak
German in addition to their own Ian
guages or dialects, and the fact is great
" to the credit Of the system adopted
by Prussia in the treatment Of the
aliens inhabiting her more recent terri.
torial acquisitions.
1t is circumstance worthy Of atten-
ton tllat while Austria, during the long
years sway over the Magyar and Tech
races, utterly failed in substituting the
German language for the Hungarian
and Slavonic tongues in Pannonia and
Bohemia, Prussia has succeeded in
Germanizing Posen and Lithuania so
completely that the Slavonic dialects, to
which the inhabitants of these coun-
tries were formerly so attached, have
fallen into comparative desuetude. As
soon as the disasters of 1866 had effect
tually strangled Capitalization in
Austria, the Magyars, TECHS, Roumans
and Serbs freed themselves, as if by
magic, from German lexieons, typo
graphy and conversation. Yet every
year sees German literature, customs
and organization striking deeper roots
into the once wild frontier districts OF
Prussian Sarmatia. Should the scheme
of united Germany ever be realized,
and il we may judge from what the
leading intellects of the Teutonic races
have done are doing, the German nation
will assume the position OF the leading
people of Europe. They are now emf
nent in literature, learning, philology,
philosophy, freedom Of thought and
nobleness OF Imagination, music and
poetry; and to these laurels must now
be added those of the highest qualities
of the soldier and the statesman
Phiia. Ldsger.

How the Dead Soldiers are In be Iden
tilted.


A Berlin letter in the London TEE
graph says:
Mark one instance Of the German
practical spirit as proof Of the fashion
after which these Teutons prepare TO
fight. In recent wars popular feeling
has demanded that rank and file, cap
tains and generals, shall be equally and
impartially mentioned in the lists of the
slain; but difficulties have arisen, be-
cause the enemy cannot know the dead
mems names, and, when the muster
roll is called after battle
the missing may be only wounded or
prisoners. Germany has, in her solid,
calm manner, arranged, in view Of this
difficulty, that each wife and mother
shall speedily know the best or the
worst about those who go to fight with
God for King and Fatherland." Slips
OF parchment, like luggage labels, have
been prepared, on which the name OF
each German soldier is plainly written,
and one of these will be fastened inside
his coat when he goes into action.
After the day is decided, the enemy, II
he be master of the field will be re-
quested to collect and return these
labels, of which about million have
been provided, grim tickets for an
unknown journey! Think OF the
German wife or mother sewing It on
the battle ticket Of her stake in the
1uarrel-the address of her particular
material Of war" the awful travelling
label wherein no loving hand may
write, with care seeing that It's
bearer goes into the Valley Of the
Shadow, TO come forth again or not az
heaven shall decree. Sewn on with
German thread, ripped of, perchance,
with French knife, whole packets and
parcels of these little human memoir
anGa will surely be returned; but yet
every man who buttons his coat over
the label oil death has looked his fate
full into the face, and made himself
ready for the burial.

The baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Troubles.

The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company has sued out an injunction
restraining the Harper Ferry Water
Power and Manufacturing Company
from removing the bridge crossing their
canal lust above the armory. At that
Mace il seems that the whole business OF
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad de-
pends ON this bridge, over which single
track runs. The bridge as 1t now
stands is in very unsafe condition
and has no other support thana wooden
trestlework set in the very centre OF the
Water Power Company canal. This
trestlework, it is said, not only impedes
the natural flow Of the water IN the
canal, but has made a heavy backwater,
causing a break in the bank of the
canal, and while it remains threatens to
destroy the most valuable portion OF
the property. The Water Power Com.
psny contend that the railroad never had
the shadow of permission TO cross the
canal at that point, and that they knew
the penalty they were incurring by sc
doing. 1t seems. also, that Mr.. Gar
retts attention has been repeatedly
called during the last six months to tn,
serious damage this bridge was doing
the Water Power Companys property
and requests made that he apply tn
nroner remedy. The Water Powe
Company, acting under the advice o
their counsel, were about to apply fore
to remove the bridge and its trestle
werk; hence the injunction, which vii
bring up the question as to whether Tn
railroad company has any rights at al
! on the property,
