"Thc Princess of Galena."

Miss Nellie Grants foreign campaign will
make her the envy of all her schoolnates on
her return; for, while others may make the
"grand tour" in as superb republican style as
they will, it has been given to no American
girl in our previous history, and possibly
never will be in the future, to have the great
fountains of Versailles played for her especial
benefit after the cascades and the spout had
rested dry through TWO years, and then TO be
presented to the Queen of Great Britain as
the LADY Of highest place In America" But
most notable In the very eventfal trip OF Miss
Grant is the sudden aud proiuSe amicab. y
which her visit has inspired In the London
Times. To be made the subject of leader in
this Journal Is OF itself a distinguished honor;
but when the Thunderer tames it. usual roar
to mild phrases On her account, halls her
corr ag as an omen Of reconciliation and good
feeling, and predicts that her return to Ameri-
ca will lead to the diffusion of a better knowl-
edge of English opinion and sentiment, and
ultimately heal existing dissensions, the
tribute is flattering indeed.

The Financial ChnronIcIe and Its Cot
ton Statement.

Tho cotton review of the Savannah Daily
Advertiser of a late date contains the follow
Ing remarks on certain defects in the stalls
tics of the New York Financial Chronicle, a
periodical which Is now received as high au-
tbori,y even in the Sonth. The Immense
value of this staple, and the Importance OF
having it's movements correctly represented,
would seem to call on the Chronicle for nm ex-
planatlon OF the charges made, with much ap-
parent force, by the Advertiser. The state
ment OF the Advertiser says:

The End OF our Solar Syste m.

Professor John Fiske, in his lecture on
,the nebular hypothesis" in New York on
Tuesday, made some startling statements as
to the processes going on in the solar sys-
tenn and their probable results on the globe
on which we live, move and have our being,
but as the terrestrial smash-up ia reserved
for the 'sremote future" we don't see after
| all that we need worry ourselves much about
it. The professor says that planets are con-
tinually integrating difIused materials which
they encounter in their progress through
space, and it has been estimated that the
earth adds to itself nearly one.hundred and
fifty billion such meteorlc particles each
year, Secondly, it has been proved that
every planet must be slowly losing part oil
its molar motion or rotation. The effect
OF the tidal waves, which are caused by the
gravitation OF liquid matter toward other
planetary bodies, is to retard diurnal rota-
tior; and, in fact, the terrestrial day Is
leDgthening by reason OF the friction OF the
tides, and is destined in the remote future to
give albeit 4sO hours between sunrise and
sunset. How about your eight hours for
days work when that time comes?
The present condition OF the moon-a
dead planet OF igneous rocks without water
or an atmosphere affords an example, says
The professor, OF the universal death which
in an inconceivably distant future awaits the
entire solar system. II along with the dis
sipation OF the mofar and molecular motions
the planets are also losing angular velocity,
this loss OF motion will ultimately result in
their integration with the sun. AS The
planet slowly draws near the sun its tan
genital momentum is replaced, aud some
what more than replaced, by the added Ve-
locity due. to the increased gravitatlve force
exerted by the sun at the shorter distance.
At the last the planet must strike the sun
with tremendous force. The beat generated
BY the earth and sun alone in such COL
lision would suffice to produce tempera-
ture OF nearly 6, 1000, 900 degrees, centrigrade.
This is good deal hotter than the present
heated term. Or course, disinlegration
would Immediately follow, and the. next
stage is the dissipation OF the whole into
nebula. The question Of new era OF evo-
luton presents an impossible barrier. We
can only catch vague glimpse OF stupen-
dous rythmical alienation between the eras
OF evolution and eras OF dissolution, succeed
ing each other without vestiges OF begin
ming, and without prospect of on end.

The Beginning of the End.
From the NatIon.1


Ii a crisis is not approaching in South Caro-
lima, there is no value in signs. The Scott
Parker Ring, as our readers are aware, have
sadded the State with debt, from which her
honest citizens see no escape but In repudia-
tiou. Since the Legislature adjourned, the
public institutions dependent on annual appro-
prialions have found their drafts on tine treas.
ury dishonored and the alternative forced
upon them either to appeal to private DeneVo-
lence or to succumb at once. Nearly all the
free schools were suspended on Inc nrsI Oh
Mrv. The Deaf and Dumb Asylum Is on the
nolnt of being closed. The Slate Lunatc
Asvlum. with two hundred and ninety-ive
| patients has atterly been enabled TO ieed
them only by private charity. And finally,
even the Slate Penilentiary is in want, and
has been compelled to bring the State treas
urer into court for WithhQlding large part OF
the appropriations Ode 10 it. All this Is sympto-
matte of q society tumbling to pieces, ana
good observers predict that the wreck is not
far of. The Ring, whose members have
thorough contempt for each other, which tney
scarcely attempt 10 conceal, VIII fall as
Tweed's fell-when any one Of them Is iaiily
cornered. That Mr.. Niles G. Parkers turn
will come first Is not unlikely. Should the
superinlendent OF the Penitentiary be success
full In his suit against him, 1t is'understood
that the superintendent Oft the Lunatlc Asylum
| will enter like complaint, with the schools
looming up in the background. What renders
the situation all the more intolerable Is that
the people OF South Carolina are almost model
taxpayers, and have promptly met every year
the burdens thus Imposed upon them; and
| that on January Is they paid into the now ex-
| hausted treasury over million Of dollars,
| besides what has accrued from the operation
| of the license law.

The South for Greeley.

Our Washington correspondent tersely re-
produces the views which have been i'm
pressed, in these columns, upon the atten-
tion of the Southern people. Again and
again has the South been bartered away Tor
the benefit OF the Northern Democracy.
Now the honest Republicans and the honest
Democrats of the North and West are 10 ac-
cord with the South. Their opponents, and
ours, are the obstinate politicians who would
fatty refuse to go 10 Heaven by any other
faith than that OF their own choice. They
demand to be saved, but they decline to be
saved except by the process which jumps
with their own ideas OF consistency and pro-
priely. These men are doing their best to
kill off Horace Greeley. They might COM
NIT political homicide as long as they
pleased, il they were The only sufferers; but
their folly is The ruin Of the innocent South.
They shall not be permitted TO destroy our
only hope OF peace and Justice because the
instruments Of redemption are not Varnlshed
and iewelled 30 as to suit their dainty taste.
It is time for the South to speak out; and
the way to do this is to elec. delegates to
Baltimore who will vote for Greeley, and can-
not be cozened or bullied into acqulescing
in q Democratic nomination. The South
has at last the opportunity OF striking a
stout blow for deliveraace. The West is her
ally. A solid delegation from the South in
favor OF Greeley will COW the sore-heads and
secure to our people on era. OF good fellow
ship and substantial prosperity.
