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.

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

Washington, April 19.—The Senate Imme

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.

Boston, April 19.—Win. Emerson, piano roan-

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.

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

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

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.

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.

, rpHIS noble little machine
- - jL was intended by the in
ventor for dropping peas, for
which purpose it clrims a spe
cialty. And even as Com and
Guano Dropper it has so'
equsi. As a Pea Dropper, it
needs only to be seen to con
vince anyone that it is a per
fect success. The present
season the inventor has drop
ped nearly one ton of guano
with theDropper, in the hill,
with his com, and he is now
prepared to recommend it for
patting guano into ths hill
with more correctness and rapidity than any other
mode he has tried.
It is light, only weighs one pound and a half,
simple, and not liable to get ont of order. It is
used in the same manner and with as much ease as
a walking cane. Children can use it with perfect
success before they can drop by band.
I. wish to establish
