Columbia, April 10.—Chamberlain’s

ctina concludes as follows:
"Bat the edict has gone forth. No ar-
gumeLt or con- derations which yocr
friends con ! J pitsent have tnffioed to
avert Ibc d.e.Bter. No effective means
of resistancs (o the consummation of tho
wrong are left. The struggle oa be
prolonged. My itrict legal rights arn of
course, wholly nnaffacted by e, ho
action of tho President. No court
of the State has jnrisdiotion to pass
npon the title to my office. No lawful
Legislature can bo convened, except npon
my call. If tho ; use of these powers
promises ultimate success to our cause,
I should not shrink from any sacrific
which might confront me. It u a cause
in which, by the light of reason and con
science, a man might well lay down h'
life; but, to my mind, my present respou
sibility involves tho consideration of the
effect of my action upon those whoso
representative I am. I have hitherto
beo:n willing to ask you Republicans of
South Carolina to risk all danger and
endure nil hardships nntil relief should
oomo from tho government of the United
States. That relief will never como.
cannot ask yon to follow me farther. In
my judgment I can no longer serve you
by lnrtber resistance to the impending
calamity.
With gratitndo to God for the _ mens
nro of endurance which He has hitherto
inspired mo with, with gratitndo to yon
for your Donndlcss confidence in me,
with profound admiration of yonr match
less fidelity to the canto in which wo havo
struggled, I now announce to yoo, and
to the people of tho State, that I shall no
longer actively assert my right to tho
office of Governor of South Carolina. Tlio
motives and purposes of the President of
the United States in the policy which
compels mo to my present course, are
unquestionably honorable and patriotic.
I devoutly pray that events may rindl
cate tbo wisdom of his action and that
peace, justice, freedom and prosperity
may hereafter bo tbo portion of every
citizen of South Carolina.
[Signed.] D. H. Cuambzrlain,
Governor of South Carolina.

Sympathetic Letter to Chamberlain.
Columbia, Apnl 10.—llis RaceUetJy.
D. H. Chamberlain, Governor cf South
Carolina, Columbia, S, C.—Dear Sir: Ra-
cniring to tho views severally expressed
by us daring the personal conference
which wo had tho honor to hold with yon
yesterday, in regard to the political com
plications which have grown oat of the
Into canvass in this State, we beg leave
to apprise you formally of the conclu
sions we hare reached, after mature de
liberation and the gravest reflection,
which wa have been able to bestow npon
tho subject. Whilst we aro no less in
spired with admiration for the dignified
and resolute manner in which yeu con
sistently maintained your claims to the
Gubernatorial chair, by virtna of the
election held in November last, than we
are solemnly impressed with the validity
of yonr title to the office, wa aro cnam-
mous in tho belief that to prolong the
contest in tho absence of that moral aid
to which we foci ourselves and
our party justly entitled, at
the hands of an administration
installed in a largo measure through the
seme agencies which are now held to bs
icsnffioient for oar auintenonoe, will be
to incur the responsibility of keeping
alive partisan prejudices, which are in tbe
last degree detrimental to tho best inter-,
csts of the people of the State, aod per
haps of precipitating a physioal oontltct
that oouldhave out oue result to onr de
fenseless oonstituency. We cannot af
ford to contribute, however, indirectly
to each a catastrophe, even in the advo
cacy of what we know to bo onr rights.
Wo are agreed therefore in ooan*a!!ing
yoa to discontinue tbe stmgg'e for
tho occnpanoy of the gubernato
rial chair, convinced, as we are,
that in view of tho dissstriens odds
to which its maintenance has been sub
jected by the action of tho national ad
ministration, your retirement will involve
ho surrender of principles nor its motive
be disapproved by the great body of that
political parry to which, in common with
onrselvea, you arc attached and whose
■access in the past in this State, has
been ennobled by yonr intelligent and tire
unselfish services. We have the honor
to be, very respectfully, yours,

PATTERSON.
He Speaks His Mind About Hayes’
Southern Policy
Washington, April 10.—The Star has
thisr "Senator Patterson was at tbe
White House this morning, to have
final interview with the President, and
protest against the removal of the troops
at Columbia. Owing to tbe Cabinet be
ing in session, he did not see the Presi
dent. He is quite discouraged to-day.
Though he has sent repeated telegrams
to Chamberlain, ho has failed to receive
a response. He said to-day : "Yon hbar
that bell striking 12 o’clock ? It sounds
tho death knell cf tbo Republican party
in tbo South.’’
Patterson is apprehonBive that Cham
berlain has weakened, and will abdt
nate nnd leave the Stato Honse and give
np tbe archives of the State without a
straggle. Ha says that Ohamberlain left
hero last week with plenty of ner.'e and
backbone and moant to hang on. He
thinks that, when Chamberlain reach
ed homo, be fonnd the action of the
President in deciding to withdraw
tbo troops had thrown tho party into
a panic, and he had _ nothing to
rally npon. "You Bee," said Patterson
“our party down there is not like the
party you fellows havo teen used to at
the North. Wc, of that State, know the
Republican party in tho South was
created by an net of Congress, and tho
negroes associato the government and
tho troops with tho parly. Now, if you
take the troopa away tho party goes up,
for tho negroes will think the govern-
ment has deserted them. Now, if Hayes
had gone into office with a good round
majority, and hadn’t needed the vote of
South Carolina and Louisiana, why he
coaid have pursued his Southern policy
with a better grace; but the Republicans
of tho South have shed blood for
cho party, and hence tho ingratitnde
is all the more cutting. And yet what
do you think ?” said Patterson, “Why,
by God, because I tell these fellows that
I am going to vote to let Butler into tho
Senate, they say I am a Democrat. Yet
Hayes recognizes Hampton, who is a
Democrat, and this destroys all my po
litical chances and wants me to keep
Butler ont of the Senate. Well, I ain't
going ts <lo it with my vote. I will just
tell the friends of Hayes (hat I will see
them in hell first.”
Why,” continued Patterson, "this
fellow, Hampton, wonld pat mo in the
penitentiary if he could. They havo
been making their beasts in Columbia
that they will have to build one or two
more penitentiaries to accommodate tho
carpet-baggers. You see,” said Patter
son, “that Cainhoy masaacro was a God
send for us. I tell you, if it hadn’t been
for that massacre we should have lost
Charleston county and Hayes could cot
havo carried tho Stale. Why wo lost
ICO Republicans killed daring tho cam
paign and over 700 arrests were made,
bnt I understand that arrangements have
been made with Hampton to noZ pros
all tho cases.”
I tell yon what wa carpet-baggers
ought to do. Why, damn it, wo ought
all to resign and let the Democrats get
tho Senate.
A friend hero suggested that Senator
Spencer had said he’d be d—d if ho wa3
going to resign. Patterson, continuing,
Well, we ought to nil resign. I can’t
understand what Haye3 is driving at.”
The friend said ho could. "Why, he
is selling out his party. Talk about di
viding the Democratic party Sontb, why
its all moonshine. Hayes knows it is
Ho is deliberately selling out his party,
and it is given out that ho will divine the
Southern Democrats so that the infamy
of tho apostasy will bo surrounded with
this glamour and tho people wont seo
tho real object in all its fullness. He has
sold ns ont.”
A Confidence Operator.
St. Louis, April 10.—A man giving the
name ol*G. W. Thompson was arrcstol
hero to-day, charged with obtaining
goods from various firms m this city cn
lalse pretences, and giving bogus checks
therefor. He was placed in a cell at the
Chestnut street station, and while the
officers were looking over tho papers
fonnd in his possession he cut bis throat
with a pocket-knife, making a fearful
gaeh across tho windpipe, bat not touch
ing tho jngalar. He had also received
goods from Louisville and other places,
and seems to be a regular confidence
operator.
Foreign News.
Loedon, April 10.—A Ranter’s tele
gram from Constantinople, states that
ths Porto to-day telegraphed a long oir.
cnlar to all the Ottoman Representatives
abroad. It will not oommnnicate the
decision annonnoed therein to tho char
ges d'affairs in Constantinople nncu to
night. The oircnlar lays stress on the
Porte's decision for peace and determi
nation to exeento reforms. It does not
reject th» protocol absolutely bnt only
those points which admit of foreign in-
terferenea in Turkish international
affairs. It repeals tbo declaration ap
pended to the protocol by Count Sehou.
valoff, and says tho Porte will only con
sent to send a delegate to SL Petersburg
and disarm if Russia is disposed to dis
arm at the same time. It asks the pow-
to induce Montenegro to shew a
more conciliatory attitude. Tho Porte
will consult the Chamber of Deputies
to-day, about Montenegro, and give the
Montenegrins a final answer to-morrow.
A Renter’s dispatch from St. Peters
burg confirms the report that Russia has
fixed npon the 13th instant as the date
before which the Porte must give its de
cision in regard to sending an extraordi
nary embaiaodor to St.Petersbnrg.
The Ayenict Basse says everything de
pends upon the decision which tho Am
bassador would bring, but in any case,
Bnssia having gone to tho utmost limit
in the path of concession will not go a
single step further.
The Et.Petersburg Bourse Gazette de
clares that war is inevitable. The situ
ation is snch that retraction » impossi
ble for either party.
Berlin, April 10.—The Poste states
that the Emperor, in gracious terms,
has refused Prince Bismarck’s request
to be pensioned off, and accorded him
lengthened leave of absence. Oamphan-
sen, by right of seniority, will represent
the Chancellor in all imperial affairs.
A communication to this effect will he
made to the Reichstag to-morrow.
Hampton and Gordon.
Columbia, April 10, 3:30 p. a.—Gov-
eraZ J. B, Gordon, IVastiington, B. C.-tPer-
fect peace prevails. The troops have

n by a Large Majority.
Detroit Free Press.—A Detroit boy, aged
' twelve, whose nnele is a member of the
Legislature, was permitted to make a trip
to Lansing a few days ago in order to visit
the State-House. He came home yester
day noon ehnek fall of importance, and
when hts little brother ran to meet him at
the gate William coldly waved him back
and said:
“I refer yon to tba Committee on Fish
eries, bub, and how’s my dog? ’
His mother was glad to eee him, and
when she asked if he had enjoyed him
self ha replied:
“Ob, I suppose so, thongh I now move
to strike ent all after tbe enacting clause.’
“What sort of talk is that Wlfile, deal?"
she asked in surprise.
“Never mind the talk, mother, bnt
move the previous question and bring on
tbo panoakea.”
The hired girl came in with tho dinner
and wanted to know bow he liked Lansing.
He looked at her with great dignity and
replied:
“I now move to lay yonr petition on
the table, Hannah, for fntnre considera
tion.”
She got mad abont it, and William
slyly informed his mother that it was his
opinion that Hannah’s title sbonld be
msdo to conform to the body of tho bill.
He went ont to see tho boys after dinner
and a house-painter asked him where,
No. C57 was.
We’ll havo a call of tbo Honso and
see,” replied the boy, ns he looked
around.
‘Whose bouse?” asked tho painter.
'Or yon can rise to a question of privi
lege,” oonlinned tbe lad.
“I don’t want no sass,” said the painter,
who thought the boy was making fan of
his red nose.
Of conrso not. Lei's pass tho bill to
n third reading, orelsogointo oommitteo
of tbo whole and debate it.”
I think yon need diessing down!”
growled the painter, and he banged Wil
liam into a snow-bank and pushed a heap
of snow down behind his collar.
Hava tbo minority no rights?” yelled
the boy, as he kicked the painter on tho
shin.
He wonld havo been wolloped, had not
his mother appeared. Tho painter
moved away [at the sight of her, bnt
called ont:
‘T’llseo yon again, boy.”
"I refer tbe whole subject to father,
with instructions to report a bill to walk
you into the Police Court,” replied the
Representative, and he went in to tell his
mother the difference between suspend
ing the rales and rushing a bill, or refer
ring it to tbo Committee on Cornfields till
some cno came aronnd with tho oigar?.
Handling “Clropatra’s Needle.”—
The monument which armies were pre
vented from carrying to England, the
gift which the prince regent conld not
take possession of, is to Us conveyed to
London by tho generosity of n privste
oitizon. Professor Erasmus Wilson has
announced his intention of bringing from
Egypt to Eoglnnd tho long negleotcd
“Needle” at his own expense. Tho man-
ner in whioh it is proposed to oonvey tho
obelisk through the Mediterranean, tbe
Atlantic, the Bay of Bisoay, and np tho
English Channel to tho Thames river, is
peculiar. First of all, it will bo ballasted
in the water at Alexandria, where it
is at present lying, and a deck will be pnt
npon it, with a couple of masts. The
hinder compartment of the deck will bo
left open for the accommodation of two
or three men, whore duty it will he to
Btoer the "ship” by means of nn ordinary
rodder. The obelilk, thns shipped,--will
bo ready for tho steamer which is ap
pointed to tow it ont to Eca. Tho ba
rometer will be consulted daily, so that
the journey may be made under tbe
most favorable conditions. On tho arri
val of the monument in England, tbe
professor will at onco proceed to place
it in an upright position. To do so in
the ordinary way would bo a task of
jreat difficulty, as it weighs two
mndrod tons. Hyraulic power will be
applied to each end of tho obelisk, and it
will be raised by that means, foot by foot,
until it reachos tho hight of twenty-nine
fect|in a borizonliel position. A “jacket”
will then bo pnt aronnd its centor of
gravity, with a couple of trunnions fixed
firmly to it, and nil that remains to bo
done afterward will be to ont tho lashings,
when tbo massive pteoo of stono will drop
into its plaoe on the pedestal. There
are those who believo the experiment will
prove a failure, bnt the Scotch professor
is oonfident of suoaess.

In the course of a recent lecture in
Baris regarding the use of birds, an esti
mate was formed of tho damage to crops
by the robbery of a nest containing five
eggs. Daring the first month
each young bird eats an av
erage of about fifty-eight flies and other
insects in a day. The aggregate, multi
plied by thirty, for tbe month makes
7,500 insects to every nest. Every insect
eats daily from blossoms and leaves nn
amount equalling its weight nntil it
reaches maturity. It was calculated that
in thirty days each insect wonld damage
thirty blossoms, and thereby destroy
thirty fruits, and that 7,500 insects
wanld kill 225,000 frnits. It will bo well,
therefore, for farmers’ sons to reflect
npon tho damage done to their parents
by tbe wanton robbery of a single nc3t.
Try it; keep trying it, and try it again’
We say this because we believo that the
health, happiness and prosperity of the
people depend upon the proper use of
these medicines, which have proved so
successful in eradicating disease and de
feating death. The medicine so effective
in its enre of diseases ia the great South
ern remedy, Simmons’ Liver Regulator.
Try it; we believo that tho first trial will
be satisfactory. aprlOdlw
The wars of this century havo been the
most bloody and costly since the palmy
days of Rome and Greece. For its ten
great bloody periods, viz; the Napoleonic,
Grecian, Crimean, Italian, Danish, Aus
trian (1SG6), Brazilian, American, Abys
sinian and Franco-German wars—leaving
out minor expeditions and skirmishes—
the figures foot np J3S.967,600,000 ex
pended. and 11,70S.600 men destroyed
from 1SOO to 1871. Two-third3 of this
aggregate OHtlay of men and money are
to be charged on the ledger to Napoleon

Waterloo.
