T °f the American guns used in defence of Paris, April 18.—CluKret reports the past night has been comparatively quiet. Dorn- browski is steadily and surely advancing. Con siderable breaches have been made in the walls •f Vaierien. The situation everywhere is •sat isfactory. Several of the enemy’s batteries have been dismounted and all their attacks re pulsed with small loss to the defenders. The morale of the men is excellent. The Mot d* Or- dre intimates that negotiations will soon bo re opened with the government at Versailles. The Official Journal pronounces false the re ports that Imllier has, been appointed to com mand tho gunboat flotilla iu the Seine. The snpply of provisions by the northern and eastern railroads is uninterrupted. In Commune they are discussing questions of commerce, preparatory to the restoration of trade and credit. . . •■ >-** Versailles, April 18.—Marshal McMahon’s headquarters are now at Fontenay aux Roses, near Sceaux. Rumors that the Prussians threaten forcible intervention in the affairs of Paris are un founded. 81 ■; Fifty Insurgents were taken prisoners in Chateau Brecon and others wore captured in the vicinity. An iron-clad railway battery has been captured from the Insurgents at Colombes. London, April 19.—The following aro the de tails of fighting at Asnieres: The Versaillists compelled the Communists lo evacuate Asnieres, but the Communists reoccupied Asnieres in the afternoon and were again attacked in the even ing with a fierce fusilade. The Versaillists with difficulty held their positions. Paris dispatches of Tuesday evening, say the Versaillists have not resumed the offensive. The belligerents are separated by the Island of Grande latte.— The losses of the Communists yesterday were very heavy. It is said the National Guards are greatly discouraged by their sufferings and losses. A special to the London Standard says the spirits of the Versaillist troops is unsatis factory, and even discipline is wanting. The Insurgents will probably evacuate Asnieres to-day. . c ' ! " ’ • ' Changes in the French ministry are reported. The Versaillists carried the woods of Colombes. The Communists are suffering fearfully in killed and prisoners. Asnieres is now threatened on both sides. HerrDolinger, a distinguished Bavarian The ologian, has been ex-communicated by the Pope. A dispatch from Versailles to-day says the Government troops occupied Asnieres yester day, driving the enemy across the Seine, and capturing some prisoners. The loss of the Ver sailles troops was small. A battery has been placed in position which prevents the Insur gents from using the bridge which crosses the river from’ Clicby to Asnieres. The Insurgent troops were qniet and their batteries silent dar ing last night. Washington, April 19.—The Senate Imme diately went into executive session. The House is discussing the Ku-klux amendments. There is no prospect of adjournment to-day. The Deficiency Appropriation bill still hangs in the Committee of Conference. The Senate adopted the conference Ku-klux report, but asked a new committee on the Deficiency bill. J. H. Hooker, recently from Mississippi, com mitted suicide at St. Louis. New York, April 19.—Arrived, San Jacinto, Huntsville, James Adger, Ashland. Washington, April 19.—The House non-con enrred in the conference on the Ku-klux bilk A new conference was appointed. The Senate adopted the new conference re port on the deficiency appropriations. Both Houses are in session to-night with the understanding that they adjourn finally. In the oonfusion it is impossible to obtain the exact fea tures of either the Ku-klux or Deficiency bills. Grant goes to St. Louis for a week. The new Deficiency Appropriation conference reduces tho appropriation to the Sisters of Mercy, of Charleston, to $12,009, and strikes out the clause appointing an attorney to repre sent the Government before the Southern claims commission, and strikes out the clause increas ing the compensation of oensus Marshals. Sherman’s amendment Is the chief point of contention between the two houses on the Ku- klux bill. Thirty Republicans voted with the Democrats, defeating the conference Ku-klux bilL There were fifty absentees. The House adopted the conference report on the Deficiency Appropriation bill. The session now only hangs on the Ku-klux hill. It Is understood that the Senate will recede from Sherman’s amendment. Confirmations: Brown, of Arkansas, Gover nor of Idaho; Garland, Attorney of Western Texas; and Fes toasters: Condri, of Aiken, S, G.; Fraser, of Charlotte, N. O.; Markham, of Madison, Ga.; Bond, of Macon, Ga. Charleston, April 19.—The News of to-day prints a extended report of an interview with Governor Scott, who gave his views very fully on the subject of the State finances and taxa tion, which have lately caused wide spread agitation among the tax-payers of South Caro lina. The Governor declared that the State debt was grossly exaggerated, and that the in crease of the bonded debt represents mainly unfounded liabilities contracted by the previous administration, and that their endorsements by the State ate amplv protected by the actual-as sets of the roads, and that the entire bonded debt of Ssuth Carolina is less than eight mil lions dollars with about one million of floating debt, whioh last will be paid immediately, with funds now in the treasury, and with the in creasing-taxes. He said his object of chang ing the time of collection of taxes was to insure the collection from poorer classes, and should add two hundred thousand dollars to the State revenue; also that an extension of time would be granted if required. The Governor added that the people are now paying the taxes with unaminity and promptness, and that it sur prised him, and which deserved the highest praise, and illustrated their law-abiding eharac ter. In alluding to the tax payers’ convention, called for next month by the Charleston Cham ber of Commerce and Board of Trade, be said the convention would result in showing the people that the State finances were in a healthy con dition, and the debt as he had represented it. He hoped also that it would create better feel ing, and re-establish confidence by preparing the way to give a fair share in the offices of the State to men of ability and experience. He pronounoes in favor of minority representation as the readiest cure for the existing grievances of the whites: He thinks the present moderate tone of the State press tends to obliterate the fears and prejudices of the Republicans, and considers that the large majority of whites in the State, by accepting Constitutional amend ments, are practically Republicans in all but the name. He expressed the belief that the aims of the Ku-klux are political, but thinks the operations of that organization are the surest means of strengthening and consolidating the Republican party. The Governor said, in conclusion, that his future policy would be to disregard party lines in making appointments, and be guided chiefly by considerations of per sonal fitness. New York, April 19.—Specie shipments to day over $1,500,000. The Telegram gives currency to a rumor of the failure of Von Sauer & Co., on contracts of $2,000,000 In gold. Arrived, China. Chevalier Rangabe and Miss Gerolt were mar ried this afternoon by the chaplain of the Rus sian and Greek Legation, at the Greek Chapel., Boston, April 19.—Win. Emerson, piano roan- facturer, is dead. - -- J _ London, April 18.—Dispatches from Versailles give some particulars regarding the fight at Nenilly. The incessant fighting around Nenilly, which lasted throughout Sunday night and all day Monday, was followed by an ominous calm Monday night, which was broken shortly after daylight Tuesday morning by the Insurgents. The conflict raged all day, with little advan tage being gained on either side, every inch of ground being obstinately contested, and both sides fighting with most determined vigor. Houses were on fire in various parts of the town, and the inhabitants' had’ all sought shelter in cellars, where many of them, including women and children, were burned to death. Towards night the Nationals, from some unknown cause, became panic stricken and fled precipitately towards Paris, the dead and wounded lying 1 thick on the road. The Government forces did not follow the Nationals. The wildest excite ment prevails in Paris, and the inhabitants are leaving by.thousands. All churches are closed, but war on the 6acred edifices still continues, and the priests are daily being insulted and im prisoned. Almost every church in the city has been pillaged. The road to St. Denis is choked with fugitives from Paris, Provisions are plen tiful, and the northern and eastern railroads are stiil bringing' in supplies. Brussels, April 19.—It is ascertained the Peace Conference concedes nothing to France. Charleston, April 19.—Arrived—Bark Oth ers, New. York. Bailed—steamer Georgia, New York; schooner J. B. Marshall, Philadelphia, schooner M. R. Somers, Philadelphia. Paris, April 19.—The programme which-has been suggested meets with general approval among the people"of Paris. It provides for the maintenance of tho Republic; granting communal rights to Paris and other cities; the dissolution of the Assembly; the election of a national communal representative assembly, instead of the formation of ad interim govern ments for Paris and Versailles, and a .declara tion .of .amnesty for all offense's against the Government and the signing of an armistice. . The insurgents admit a repulse at Nenilly, but claim victories at Issy and Clamart. Gen eral Okelvir succeeds General Dombrowski’s brother, disabled at Asnieres. London, April 19.—A dispatch from Asnieres via Versailles, says the weather is rainy, and operations to-day are next to impossible, but adds the Insurrection is falling to pieces. New York, April 19.—A Tribune cable dis patch, dated Paris, 19, says the cannonading slackened owing to the weather. The fighting was not serious enough to continue daring the rain, which has been incessant daring the past few days. There has been much moving of troops with small results on either side. The markets are badly supplied, bullock meat bringing a shilling per pound after killed. The Commune says arrangements are being made to provision Paris by northrrn and east ern railways. A special dispatch dated Tuesday evening says, the Insurgents met with a severe defeat yesterday. The defensive works have been completed at Asnieres within the last few days* The Commune generals believed their posi tion safe from an attack beyond the bridge over the Siene. A strong barricade has been erected fifteen yards from the railway stations, armed with mitrailleuses, and another earth work was thrown np last night to cover the attack from the Gharlebonrg road. The Colombes road was protected by a barricade of paving stones covered with earth two yards thick and eight hundred yards long, and connected the principal Insurgent posts. Seven armor plated locomotives armed with American metrailleuses were ready along tho railway to defend the Na tional Guard. Washington, April 19.—Tho House has taken reoess to wait the action of the Senate on the Ku-klux bill. It seems certain that Congress will adjourn some time to-night. Washington, April 19.—Both. houses have taken a recess to wait the report of the Confer ence Committee on the Ku-Klux bill. The Conference Committee on the Deficiency Appropriations bill Btruck out the clause re pealing Drake’s proviso regarding Presidential pardons. Synopsis or Weather statement. War Dep’t, Office Chief Signal Officer, > Washington, D. C., April 19,8:40 p. il> The storm center, which was Tuesday eve ning west of Iowa, has moved slowly north eastward, and is now central over St. Paul, Minn. Threatening weather, with falling bar ometer, has been experienced on the Gnlf and Atlantic coasts, which is now generally succeed ed by clearing np weather. Rain has fallen north of the Ohio and on the Lakes eastward to Ontario. Brisk easterly winds, followed by high southwesterly winds, have generally prevailed from the Ohio and Missouri rivers to Lake Su perior. A severe northeast gale has continued, but is now abating, on the latter Lake. Probabilities: It is probable that tke storm will move northeastward, and that tke winds will abate on the lower Lakes. Clear and par tially cloudy weather is probable for Thursday on the South Atlantic and Gulf. The Shaker gleefully remarks that an EDglish Journal, descanting on the various degrees of connubial bliss, states that the official record of the city of London for one year stands thu3: Runaway husbands 2,348 Runaway wives - 1,132 Married parties legally divorced 4,175 Married parties living in open warfare 17,345 Married parties living in private misunder standing ....13,270 Married parties living mutually indifferent... 50,310 Married parties regarded as comfortable 8,185 Married parties nearly bappy. 127 Married parties perfectly nappy 10 A Passage from: Prof. DeMobgan’s Will.— The will of the late Augustus DeMorgan, the -eminent mathematician, contains the following remarkable passage: “I commit my future destiny, with hope de rived from experience, to Almighty God, who has been and will be my guide and my support; to God, the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, of whom I believe in my heart that God has raised him from the dead, and whom I have not confessed with my mouth in the sense usu ally attached to theBC words, because such con fession has been, in my time, the way np in the world." Ah extraordinary blast of granite fookplaoe lately at the Bonaw quarries, Argyllshire. A perpendicular rock-face, about 100 feet square, was pierced below the centre by a tunnel 2 feet high and 24 feet wide for 50 feet inward, and then braneningoff at right angles for 13 and 15 feet, terminating in a couple of chambers, wherein 8,000 pounds of gunpowder were de posited, and fired by a galvanic battery. There was a slight report, and then a burst outward into the quarry of about 80,000 tons of granite. A spiritual circle in Cincinnati has learned from a departed shade all about the next Presi dential election. The departed shade raps out that the Republicans will nominate two candi dates, General Grant and a Radical, and the Democrats Chief Justice Chase, and that the last will be elected, and we shall dwell In peace and good will ever after. .The New'BunDiNas.—The new Court-house is now attracting much attention, and is rapidly assuming beautiful and imposing proportions. The main' roofing has all been put on, and the workmen are engaged on the two turrets—both of which are very beautiful, indeed, but, we fear, rather light in Btrnoture to be durable. It is the fault of modern.architecture, that it will not stand the test.of.Aimlt sa lt should do. The architect of tttidayjnakee a greater effort to please the eye ferawhile; than to erect endur ing monuments to hishfame. When Completed, the new Court-house will, undoubtedly, be a model of beauty in point of architecture; but the builder, himself can scarcely clnirn for it that durability which should attach to suoh a- public building. . : - 1' Thu work of the four large brick stores on Poplar street, being erected by Mr. J. J. Cor nell, for Mr. Green J. Blake, is progressing as rapidly as the weather will admit of, and the walls have now reached the second story. It is the purpose of the builder to have them ready for occupation by the first of October next, if possible, and he is one of those contractors who push their work with alacrity and vim while it is in hand. Mr. Cornell has built np nearly the whole square bounded by Third* Fourth', Plum and Poplar streets,, and has con: tracted, we believe, for the erection-of. several more stores on ihe grounds immediately ad joining the stores he is now putting up. The new stores of the Daly Brothers, on Cherry street, are now receiving the finishing touches, and present a very handsome front on that street. * v ; . .r Fast Stock.—A parly of ladies and gentle men went out yesterday morning to the race track at tho Central Georgia Fair Grounds, to witness a little fancy trotting by some of the fast stock about town, including Mr. Jno. Harr’s noble brown horse, “Bismarck”; Mr. Clay’s splendid gray, “Gray Engle” and Mr. Lockett’s beautiful and fleetzoah, “Bazil Duke.” TheBe extra fine horses are now in. training, and their speed yesterday elicited much praise and admi ration.. Of course ‘‘Bismarck” was the centre ‘ of attraction, but there are few finer looking horses than “Gray Eagle” or “Bazil Duke.” While the party were on the grounds, Mr. Harr did the handsome thing, in placing before his visitors a cup of most excellent coffee, of his own production, and “talking horse” to them while they were sipping it. An Infamous Den.—There is a sink of perdi tion, located nearly opposite the Guard House on 4th street, and presided over by one Henry Cooper, that the city authorties should devise every means in their power to abolish. It is. the common resort of negro gamblers, thrives and inebriates, and scarcely does a week pass, that some crime is not committed in this ini quitous hole. Rather than retard, we desire in every way to promote the advancement of the colored people, in their efforts to acquire an honest livelihood, but when a gang of scoun drels band themselves together for the purpose of preying npon a community, we shall use all the means at our command to expose their vil lainy and bring them to punishment. Again do we say, this 4th street hell should be uproot ed and totally annihilated. Corn Thieves.—Judge Logan had before him yesterday three negroes charged with stealing com from Messrs. Holmes & Clay. The prin cipal thief, Ed. Hawkins; employed by Holmes & Clay, and to whom was entrusted the keys to the corn-house, stole a quantity of corn and de livered it to his accomplices, Wm. Jackson and Feter Wiley. Hawkins was committed on his own confession. Ciroumstanoes fully estab lished and corroborated the guilty participation of Jackson and Wiley in the theft. All were bound for their appearance before the Superior Court next week. Misplaced Confidence.—A young gentle man from the rural districts came into the city yesterday and, securing his horse and buggy at a street corner, proceeded to do some trading at the adjaoent stores. On his return he dis covered that his fine traveling shawl had been taken from his buggy, and the picture of blank despair whioh he presented would have made a capital study for an artist. The last we saw of the victimized youth, he appeared to be either in a fair condition to do some tall cursing or to get down and have a big cry.
