NEGRO GOVERNMENT IN South
CARoLINA.-A Columbia correspon-
dent of the New York World begins
a picture Of negro rule in South
Carolina, with the following state
ment:
The Auditors exhibit shows that
only II 900 persons paid the poll
tax last year. These, of course,
were the white property-onwers,
(Democrats,) who had real estate to
return, and from whom this tax, in
addition to the other, was easily col
lected. But the last election shows,
by official return, 100000 votes poll
ed, an excess of some ninety thou
sand over the number paying the
poll-tax. Here, then, we have the
evidence of an official report that the
10000 Radical voters in this State
who fill this Legislature with the
piebald company now sitting here,
and send men to Washington as rep
resentatives of South Carolina, pay
no taxes whatever.

poL1TIcAL TENDENCIES.

The Atlanta Intelligencer states
the fact that the adoption of the Fed
eral Constitution involved two oppo-
site political tendencies in the system
Of goveynment-one towards disin-
tegration, the other to consolidation,
and quoting the opinion of MADISON,
that the former would be most dan
gorous, says d" how fallacious has the
reasoning of these greatmen proved"
Not so. Disintegration came near
being an accomplished fact and its
failure gave to consolidation a result
ting force which alone makes it dan
gerous. 1.-THE government: had beer
made little stronger, we would, per
haps, have escaped secession an(
consolidation.
The truth is the great Statesman
who framed the Federal Constitution
foresaw clearly the political tenden
cies involved and history has illustra.
ted the wisdom Of HAMILTON anc
MADISON.

Senator Cameron has been chosen
President of great Scottish Society
in Washington, formed for the pur-
pose of inviting their countrymen to
participate in the carnival celebra-
ton on the goth and 2lst insts. 1t

men will be congregated, wearing
their full Highland costumes, includ-
ing about fifty pipers, and that they
will participate in a number of Scot
fish games for prizes, valued at
over 81, 1000.

The negroes at Atlanta who are
attending Turner's pow WOW, make
tho following modest request of Con-
gross:
"Your committee would further
recommend that, owing to our mon
eyless condition, that this Conven-
ton do ask Congress to appropriate
one million Of dollars as a loan, to
assist such of our people as may de-
sire to settle on Government lands,
to be expended and accounted for
by commissioners appointed by the
President of the United States, and
that the Government hold such a
claim on all lands settled and cult
waited as will insure the payment Of
said claim with a lawful interest. -
! And that the said agent or agents OF
emigration be requested in his IN
spection of Government lands tc
give special attention to their pro-
ductive resources, water facilities
and such other conveniences as may
be OF interest to new settlers.

WAR JuST BEGUN Am English
dispatch says Earl Russell express
es, publicly, the opinion that war on
the continent of Europe has just be-
gun. God send he may be wrong.
God keep US all out of it if he is
right. But we have an idea that
the current decade is going to be one
of the bloodiest in human history
Woe, woe to the people when kings,
princes, potentates and politicians
sport with war. The big Williams
done feel it's death and ghastly
wounds-its cold, hunger and all
other suffering. Whatever happens
Heg are taken care of. 1t is the
wretched people who are dragged
Dip to the slaughter-whoso bodies
are maimed-whose cottages are
burned-whose families are exposed
to violence and misery in all shapes
whose little stores are destroyed
or stolen, and whose labor is mort
gagged for generations to pay for the
waste and ruin.-TelegrGi,,,'H. d "''-

The yearly production of cotton
seed in the sections tributary to this
market is $4,000 tons. This will
yield 10000 gallons of oil, worth, in
its crude state, $15,000,000; and
800, 900 tons cake, worth S9,0OO,-
600. The 100000 tons hulls and
pieces of fibre left afseF the manu-
facture of the oil and cake, could
make several millions of dollars
worth of the finest paper. If the
entire cotton seed product of the
Mississippi valley were msnpfactur-
ed into oil, oil cake, soap and paper,
and the oil refined and bleached, it
would be worth some $4,000, 900,

THE oAPITUbAgIoN OF PARIS.
Views of the Press.
[From the Philadelphia Press. ]

Iron the Philadelphia Press,]
The surrender of Paris virtually
ends what will be known in history
as the greatest of all the wars of the
first three-quarters of the nineteenth
century. In point of duration 9TH
ers have exceeded, but none in the
rapidly with which battle has sue
ceeded battle, the strange and almost
unexampled success which followed
the fortune of one Of the combatants
from the very outset, and the inn
mense loss of life upon each side.--
The capitulation of Paris makes the
third surrender of an entire army
first McMahon's, then Bazaine's,
and now that of Trochu. The Prus-
slams have captured fully seven hum
dred thousand men since August
I'd, when the contest was initiated
with a skirmish on the heights of
Saarbruck, where the Prince lmpe-
rial received his baptism of fire.
The loss in killed and wounded, in
the aggregate, will amount to half a
miIlion-an awful sacrifice Of life,
| for which Louis Napoleon is mainly
answerable. And that
Paris has fallen, we look for an ear
" peace in France. The armisticc
agreed to by Favre will not very
likely be accepted by Gambetta and
the Bordeau Government, as we'll as
the terms of peace. These men,
clinging to their old ideas of glory
and the military supremacy oil
France, will refuse to be bound by
the treaty of Paris, but their re-
fusal will not amount to much. The
Capitalization which has made Paris
the head as well as the heart o.
France will compel peace.
But even in the event of the pro-
vincials persisting in this mad strug-
gle, the German mics will be able
to overrun the whole country, from
the English channel to the Mediter-
ranean sea, in week. The besieg-
ing forces of Paris are now turned
loose, and will be able to defeat any
force the French can put into the
field
