writing from Abbevile, furnishes the
following letter Of Secretary. Cardozo'
for publication
...t s..... COLUMBIA, July %, 1872.
Ncssrs. Boactc and Titus:
GENTLEMEN: In accordance with
your wishes have engaged two young
men from Charleston to teach the school
at Abbeville. Their names are +. NJ.
Stewart and Joseph NJ. Morris. They
arc students Of Howard University,
Washington. ID. c., and are thoroughly
qualified and competent to teach. They
obtained first-class certificates from Mr..
Jillson to-day. l know them well and
would recommend them highly. l will
warrant that they will make a first-class
school at Abbeville Court House.
Yours truly,
P. S.-These young men are here in
Columbia, and if you write to me by re.
turn of mail, or as soon rs possible, they
will leave on Monday morning with

you, therefore, as sooe as possible.

The correspondent takes issue with
the suggestions of the letter. and thinks
it must have been written upon in
formation furnished by those who seek
to divide the Republican party in Able
Vile. The colored school is now taught
by two Northern ladies', whom the wri
ter compliments, as cnlinently compc-
tent, and as being the choice of tho
patrons of the school. ...

March =. 1ST2

A dispatch from Washington tt
this coast. dated March ID, asserts
that Minister belongs presence, Al
that place, is neither by invitation
of the Japanese Embassy, 10 by
permission of the State Department,
other than may be inferred from a
sixty days leave of absence. The
dispatch further adds that the story
put in circulation that the japanese
Government ever intended appoint
ing him to a mission similar to that
of the Burlingame mission, was en-
tireIy without foundation, and was
only intended to advance the private
and political fortunes of DeLong in
a contest before the people OF this
State for Senator Nye's seat. Now
that the Japanese mission has been
raised to the rank of first class, with
a salary of ST. 900 a year. we hardly
think there can be any truth in the
rumor that belong intends to enter
the Senatorial race in this State.
Should he do so, however, he will
find the field so completely occupied
before him that there will not be
found a place to drive an entering
wedge. He would lose acomfortable
and honorable position without the
remotest chance of winning the Sen
atorial prize in this State. We are
not disposed 10 think belong Will
be guilty of so grave a political
blunder as to enter the field with
but one chance in Thousand to win,
at the sacrifice of the honors and
emoluments of his present position.

colt Miner, of February 26th, we
have the annexed intelligene:
At Mineral Park Camp, where are
congregated nearly five hundred
miners, there was not, on the 11th
ultimo, one days rations of any
thing except wheat and corn in the
berry, which was intended for horse
feed. The Indians, who are also
destitute of food, are stealing and
running eff stock, and threatening
to attack the town. Six weeks have
elapsed since any merchandise has
reached Hardyville OF Fort Mohave,
and a Miner correspondent from
Mineral Park says that starvation
stares them in the face. Parties had
left for this city, Prescott and Phoebe
for supplies. Several wagOn-loads
of supplies have left here for that
region this week. which, it is hoped,
Will reach the destitute miners by
the 18th or Goth. On the other
hand. from the Bradshaw and other
mines we have the most encouraging
reports. The marvellous richness of
the Tiger and Lorena lOdes is the
subject Of much comment, and it is
claimed that they are the richest
mines in the world. Parties in the
Hualapai District feel certain Of the
early establishment of a daily mail
to Los Angeles, and Prescott has
hopes that the telegraph Will be
extended to that city.

The sacramento Union has been
doing a little bit of figuring for itself
upon the chances in the coming
Presidential campaign, and 1t finds
that the out look for General Grant
is anything butgood. Among other
things. on the subject, it says:
From the Democrats as an organi-
cation nothing IS feared. The dan
ger OF the Philadelphia nominee will
have to apprehend must come from
the Reform Republican and Labc"
Union movement concentrated upon
the same ticket. which ticket the
Democrats. observing their ''pasSive
policy" may have it in their power
to elect. The only sure way todefeat
the coalition now threatening is for
the Philadelphia Convention to
spike the guns of the Ref ,rmers by
accepting and adopting their pro-
posed reforms. But with leaders Of
small nature like Morton and Conk-
ling. who have bought their way into
the Senate and the public offices,
what is to be hoped? To such men
reform would be a deadly poison

The New PosrAL REeuLAr-oSs ON

THE New POSTAL REGULATIONS ON
NEWSPAPERS Postmaster General
Creswell has directed that the new
regulations on newspapers sent by
mail be strictly enforced. No name
or memorandum can be made on a
newspaper inside of the wrapper on
which the address is written. 1t is
barely permissible to mark an article
with pen or pencil. More than this
subjects the paper to letter postage,
and the v~iolator of the law to a fine.
No printed card, handbill or adver-
tisement. no written notice. letter, or
slip of any kind whatsoever must be
folded in the paper. To do any of
these things is to violate the law.
Printed slips pasted or the outside,
or folded in papers or periodicals,
soliciting notices, are also violations
Of the law. Senders of transient
papers can send bundles of printed
matter by weight on transient post
age charges, but must not send any
matter in such bundles.
