The Cotton Market.

Late cotton circulars contain the fol-
lowing statistics: Total receipts since
Sept. /, 1872, 10000 bags against 1900
last year. Stock, 4,90J bags against y
700 bags last year. On hand, $500 bags
against 5000 last year. Quotations are
Tor common, 3'@42c; medium, 4jc;
good, 4S@55c; fine, 7jGS5c; extra,
90@l2Oc. The crop has been fully three
lourths marketed, but a large part OF
that to come consists Of frost and stained
cotton.
In this vicinity, from earnest inquiry,
we are convinced that seven.eighths OF
the crop is now ginned and in market.
The buyers all co plain of the scarcity
of seed cotton. The crop comes into
market carly this year because the
drought matured the plant and picking
began aud ended early. Another reason
is found in the fact of the greatly in
creased facilities for ginning. Planters,
who last year sent their crops away to be
ginned, this year have their own gins.
The market in Charleston is very dull
even for good cottons. The price is alto
gether in the hands Of the buyers, and
any reasonable BID is sure to find takers

Elliott en- the Psttersonians.

Congressman r. B. Elliott was recent
y interviewed by correspondent Of the
Cincinnati Commercial. He is quite pa
thetic over what will be thought Of his
race when 1t is known that they prefer
Patterson's green to Elliott's black argu-
meuts. 1t is sad enoughto think of seats
on the U. S. Senate as objects Of mer-
chaudize, but it makes one smile to hear
of Elliott bemoaning the venality Of his
colored brothers. Heis an example him.

feated impeachment; how he helped
pass the validating bill; onwhat terms
he favored the settlement bill; what it
cost to pass the Blue Ridge bill; why
he-left his place in congress to spend his
time in the lobby at Columbia, The
weapons which beat him in his contest
with Patterson were perfectly familiar to
him. 1t is thepot calling the kettle black
for him to cry out against Patt rson.

The Death of Napoleon.

The cx-emperor Of the French died, at
Chiselhurst, England, on the 9th inst.
History will name him the greatest
sovereign of his time, Notwithstanding
the disasters which closed his reign. He
gave to France government suited to
ner and the trccst she has ever known.
But good or bad it was the choice of a
vast majority Of her people. Could that
people now speak We believe the dynasty
could continue in the Prince Imperial.
The man who made himself Dictator
of France, who huibled Russia, de-
feated Austria, and made Italy possible,
will remain forever the Caesar of the
nineteenth century. He ruled France,
not by the grace of allied armies, or by
the money bags of the bourgeois king,
but by the stern mailed hand of dicta-
tor. Under his rule there was no insur-
rection of raging madmen of the Com
mune. The Partisan knew that his life
and property were safe from the assassin
and the robber, and the Frenchman, of
whatever party, recognized that Napo-,
leon had made France the arbiter Of
Europe. Napoleon may have been the
coward that Kinglake paints him, and
the dull dreamer that so many have dis

THE BULL RIVER RAILROAD !
NECESSITY.

The disaster to the dRcHYa furnishes
IN arguments in favor of the speedy
construction of the Ball River rIlrold
Or, rather. it adds one tc long list Of pre-
vioas arguments of the same kind
If the phosphate de,osi'sia the neighbor-
hood of Bull River are ever to be fully
developed and the immense expenditure OF
clpitol already made is to be supplemented
by greater efforts on the. part of owners,
the facilities for the shipment Of the rock
must be made safer and cheaper.
No port in the south has now worse
reputation than St. Helena Sound. 1t is
dangerous TO 20 in and more so 10 go out
Within year there lave been half dozen
,ases of injury TO the few ships entere l. and
the narrow escapes may be set down as al
most as fseQuenr as the departures. Since the
.4ac,lla disaster we have heard Of one Of
these narrow escapes made by Spanish
bark going in, which ran ashore near the
entrance to st. Helena Sound, but fortunate
ly it was at low tide and she slid of easily.
When we think of the different experience
VIC had at Port Royal entrance during the
war the contrast is so great that it hardly
needs to be restatcl. Then, we saw often
;po hundred sal. Of vessels lying in our
harbor. The arrivals ere sometimes scores
in day. Every rig and every size were
represented, from the smallest coaster to the
Hd6Gsh and the Vermont. During the
whole war, from November, 1861, TO the
close in 1865, no instance of disaster oc-
Cured. Ships and steamers came in ut all
hours of the day and night; at all stages Of
tdc at all seasons Of the year, with the
weather running the whole gamut, from
Gains to the iiercest gales. !,
No shipmaster, who had ever entered,
waited a second time for pilot, and hun
dreds who never saw the bar sailed in with
out tear. No instance of vessel striking
on the bar ever occurred to our knowledge.
except that of the Vermont. She, after
u ling three years as storcship, lost her
moorings and went tosea in n gale. She was
drawing twentyscvcn feet, with the accu-
mutation of three years upon her bottom.
She touched but came of without hurt.
If the railroad were completed now, ships
could be chartered for Port Royal AT rates
of freight and in>ura nee sufficiently lower
when compared with Bull River to Pny q
handsome freight to the railroad. lnstead
of having to lighter the greater portion Of
tacir cargoes they could receive them from
shoots and be loaded in n few days. When
loaded they could goto sea at once, without
waiting for just such favorable wind as at
ST. Helena. -
In fact, it may be said, that the success
of operations at Bull River depend upon the
completion of the railroad Large sums
have been expended there, and as yet no re-
turn has been made to the impatient holders
Of stock in the different companies. We
predict that the matter will soon receive
the earnest attention of these so deeply
interested.

year, and whose taxable property is
twice that. Of the entire state of
South Carolina, has been brought
to it's present prosperity by manu-
features. Its wealth is created by
labor and machinery. No license
scheme was ever put in force to re-
tard the development of business
to prevent the union of capital, in
genuity and labor for the creation
of wealth. There are thousands of
men in business there, adding mil
lions to the capital of the city, en-
ploying other thousands Of laborers,
attracted by employment from
every quarter of the world, who
have never consciously paid a state,
county or city tax. They do not
escape taxation, for they live IN
houses and carry on their business
in houses. Their workmen live in
other houses. They buy of and
sell to other men who live in houses.
The only tax is upon real property
-immovable property-which IS
the only place yet discovered to
put tax which will b. universal,
equal, impossible to evade and
cheap to collect.
To this will be replied: Phila-
delphia is so prosperous that her
real estate can bear all the burdens
of taxation. But what made it
prosperous We reply, labor. La
Dor created the capital. Capital
in turn employs the labor and stim-
ulates it. This again demands
homes for its votaries; real estate
rises in value by reason of demand.
Thus labor creates and sustains all.

sand tons of the crude rock, beside Il
large quantity of lumber. The value of
the cargoes of phosphate alone will reach
