CONSTITUTIONALIST AUCiUvSTA. GhA. WEDNESDAY MORNING. SEPT. 28,1870 A CHANGE IN THE DRAMA. While the majority of men have their eyes fixed upon the French metropolis and regard intensely the details of physical strife, their attention is withdrawn, in a great measure, from the diplomatic cloud gathering in the eastern part of Europe, which seems destined, before many weeks, to burst in fury and involve the whole of the continent in carnage and desolation. Inklings have come to us, from time to time, that Russia was coquetting with Austria; that the armies of the Czar were marching into Poland and on the frontier of Bessa rabia. The latter movement has startled the Turk, and tremendous preparations are being accordingly made, very silently though, as is the custom of the East, to meet the coming wrath of the Romanoff, whose lustful gaze, since the time of Peter the Great, has never been turned from Byzantium. If Russia should move to ward the Black Sea, which she has coveted for centuries, what nation can stop the way? The Turk may make a good fight, but, without allies, he is certain to be beaten into lint. Austria might prove a lion in the path, but Austria -has probably a hand in the pie. France is in no condition at present to help anybody seeing that poor Mr. Thiers is sauntering up and down, from London to St. Peters burg, begging that somebody will help France, whose throat is in the unrelax ing gripe of the German. England is the only Power which would or could move to check-mate the Russian and save the Ottoman empire, so that her colonies may be spared. We think the Turk ought to be driven out of Europe; but it may not be best for the world that the Russian should supplant him. England has “ gone into trade” and her army appears contemp tible. But, she has an incomparable navy, an almost inexhaustible purse, an isolat ed position and, if needs be, can sub side ze armies to nearl v any extent. How she can help stripping for the fray, in case of a Russian war with Turkey, we do not under stand; and if she does enter upon the quarrel, she will prove an adversary, one way or another, of the most formidable character. Russia can probably put into the field an army of 800,000 men. The paper esti mates are greater; but paper estimates have wofnlly failed in the case of France and may fail in the case of Russia. Her navy consists of 310 vessels, 248 being steamers, and 25 iron-clads. Turkey is not powerful for aggression; but she is not to b - despised as a defensive Power, although mongrelism has sapped the manhood of the Ottomite since the days of the earlier Arabian conquerors.— She has a “paper army” of 450,000 men, but could not, it is estimated, raise at. once for the field exceeding 130,000. This force, of course, would be greatly iucreased in case of invasion, since the troops of Tur key and Egypt, during the Crimean war, numbered 216,000. The Turkish navy com prises 23 steamers and iron clads, com manded by an Englishman, a son of the Earl of Buckingham, known in Great Britain as “ Dog Hobart ” and among the Mussulmen as Hobart Pasha. Hq was a famous blockade runner during the Con federate war. The British standing army consists of not more than 200,000 men. Half of these are distributed in various quarters of the globe, the other half reinaiuing at home. Great Britain, however, has many millions of men, but whether they will come wheu called upon, and whether some, the Irish especially, will not come in the wrong way, remains for future determination. It may be that Russia will draw in her horns. If so, the world will be spared a further saturnalia of blood and crime. But if the colossus should move, she wiil agitate the world of Europe, and especially the dominions of John Bum, and Abdul Aziz. Jimfisk. —From Maretzek’s account, Jim Fisk is not only the vainest peacock in the universe, but a very dirty fellow withal. At a supper given to his blonde performers, Fisk requested the impresario to act as interpreter. “Inform these la dies, Max,” said he, “ that we have no kings or emperors in this country, but we have James Fisks ; that, in fact, New York is called Fiskville already.” Maretzek refused to be a go-between, and excited Fisk’s ire. He concludes with these terrible words: “On the morning after the Nilsson con cert, Mr. Fisk, with some little difficulty, owing to my own respect for my family, consigned me to the limbo of swindlers, thieves, and suckers, where so many of his managers had been sent before, and where l found congenial company in the press aud that part of the community which still has an old fashioned prejudice against the oc cupation of the panderer, and can stand all revivals except that of Sodom and Gomor rah.” From all we can gather, this portrait of the New York hero is a correct one. His mental capacities are undoubtedly immense, but he resembles rather some depraved gal lant revived from the obscene heathen world than a creditable specimen of the manhood of the nineteenth century. Great will be his downfall. Cruel.— The most cruel thrust yet given the negro race comes from the New York Times, an orthodox Radical organ. The Times tells the black men very plainly that votiug will uot entitle them to re spect, and even Intimates that uot to vote, at this juncture, is perhaps the best badge of gentility. The Times then informs the “colored” race what it must do to rise in the social scale. We quote: «It must furnish a fair quota of able and successful men of business, of learned and astute lawyers, of well-trained scholars, ofeloqueut preachers, of painstaking, and clear-headed, and thorough men of science. It must, too, do a reasonable amouut for the arts of music and painting, at least. Lastly, it must furnish a respectable quota of honorable and polished men of culture, and women of the same sort.” In other words, Sambo and Dinah must perform impossibilities. Wendell Phil lips has given the signal ior Radicalism to throw the Germans overboard. Pretty soon the colored brother will go the same way. The Difference.—G<ethe remarked that the French had abundance of esprit, but knew very little geography. Considering the name of the river that runs by Berlin, we suppose the Prussians have no less Spree and far more geography. Hon. C. C. Olat.— We are sorry to learn that Hon. C. C. Clay, of Alabama, was thrown frpm a wagon on Friday last at St. Paul, Minnesota, fracturing several ribs, find sustaining other injuries. A Paphian Dome.— The female brokers, Mesdames Woodhull & Claflin, of New York, have just opened what they call a Lady’s Club House. Everything is finished in the most extravagant manner, and the effort seems to have been to imitate the most gorgeous establishments sacred to, or profaned by, the male sex. We quote: “ The visitor, on ascending the grand staircase from the floor beneath and reach ing the lobby, is struck with admiration and astonishment on seeing a magnificent hollow dome—all fresco work and gilt, with beautiful images and florid scroll work, classic decoration, and grotesque picturings—directly over his head. On looking up his eyes are blinded or en tranced by a flood of light beaming through a circular sheet of glass, painted in the most exquisite colors and with inimitable grace. On Us surface the artist has pictured the loves of Venus in delicate lines." Very fine, no doubt. But what rational man would not pray to be delivered from choosing a wife from the female clubbists? The Male-Stowe. —Senator Henry Wilson has attempted to embalm the memory of the late Secretary Stanton by proving beyond farther controversy that he was a hypocrite, a coward, a conspirator and a sneak. Judge Black, who was once Stanton s friend, endeavored, some months ago, to save the dead man’s repu tation at Wilson’s expense. But Wilson has, without intending it, gibbeted the Yankee Carnot, so-called, as a detestable spy and traitor beyond even the possibility of Judge Black’s powers of veneering.— But it happens, however, that successful duplicity and mendacity are the very at tributes a certain class of Puritans wor ship in their god. Unkind. —Because some artist lias sculp tured Lincoln to the very life, the New York folks try to persuade the world that the figure of the late lamented, set up in Union Square, is a “ hideous nightmare which people have after supping ou roast pork and lobster salad.” When the people of the North shall have awakened to a proper perception of their great crime agains’ the South, an image of ugliness will stalk among them more in tolerable, by long odds, than the truthful statue of the defunct rail-splitter whom they once deemed divine. Tax on Interest or Coupons.— The ac companying correspondence, as setting at rest the vexed question whether railroad coupons and interest, maturing in the last five months of this year, are subject to United States tax, is of importance to the public: LETTER OF PRESIDENT SIMONDS. First National Bank of Charleston, ; Charleston, S. C., Sept. 14,1870. : G. J. Hascall , Esq., Assessor of In ternal Reve nue of the Second District of South Caro lina : Dear Sir : Are railroad coupons matur ing first September subject to a Govern ment tax of two and a half per cent ? Par ties in New York and Boston, for whom we have collected, complain of our permit ting the deduction, while the railroads here refuse to pay otherwise. Yonrs, respectfully, Andrew Stmonds, President. reply of the district assessor. United States Internal Revenue, ) Assessor’s Office, 2d Dis’t, S .C., > Charleston, Sept.. 23, 1870. j Sir : 1 have the honor to inform you that the honorable Commissioner of Internal Revenue has ruled “ that no tax is to be withheld from interest or coupons which fall due during the last five months of the present calendar year, but that they are to be returned, like interest from other sources, in the next annual income returns of the parties receiving them.” Very respectfully, Alex. Lindstrom, Aftfcitant Assessor. Andrew Simonds, Egg., President First National Bank. J|b w* Democratic Meeting in Burke. Waynesboro, Ga., Sept. 24, 1870. The Democratic party of Burke county met this day, in pursuance of the call of the Chairman of Executive Committee, for the purpose of selecting delegates to the Congressional Convention at Augusta, and the Senatorial Convention at Scarbow, the f. .rmer to meet on the 29t.h inst., and the latter on the sth October. On motion of Judge Perrv, Captain A. M. Rodgers was called to the Chair, and John D. Munnerlyn requested to act as Secretary. The object of the meeting being explain ed, Hon. J. J. Jones moved that a commit tee of five be appointed by the Chair, to suggest to the meeting suitable delegates to the Congressional Convention, which being adopted, the Chair appointed J. J. Jones, H. H. Perry, J. T. Palmer, A. 11. A. Bell and S. A. Corker, who retired and re ported the following nominations, which were accepted, viz: H. H. Perry, Thomas Burdell, J. P. Thomas, G. A.

Royal, H. C. Glisson, M. P. Green and James Barrett. It was resolved by the meeting that each of the above delegations have power to ap point alternates. On motion of H. H.

The Chair appointed the following per sons as the Central Committee under the foregoing resolution: H. H. Perry, M. P. Green, Jas. Barrett, John S. Byne, Roland Steiner, J. P. Thomas, T. J. Burton, J. J. Jones and Jethro Thomas. On motion of E. F. Lawson, it was Resolved, That these proceedings be pub lished in the Waynesboro Expositor and the Democratic papers of Augusta. And thereupon the meeting adjourned. Alpheus M. Rodgers, Chairman. John D. Munnerlyn, Secretary. The Word “ Jew.” —The following, which appears in a communication to a New York paper, is a piece of information that many do not possess: “The word ‘ Jew ’ is not the name for the once great nation of Palestine, but it merely describes their faith or belief. If you should ask me what religion I have, my answer would be H “lam a Jew.’ Ask my nationality—my Answer, ‘I am a German.’ >he same as a Protestant can be an Irishman, as well as a Catholic can be a German or a Jew can be a Frenchman. Mr. Sig. Kaufmann is a German by nationality and a Jew by re ligion; and if a Jew is born in Dublin he is as well an Irishman as a German born in New York is an American. I don’t be lieve there is a Jew living on the globe that could trace his descent: for, when the emigration from Asia to Europe took place, Jews and Geatiles went there as well as J ;ws and Gentiles came to Ameri ca. You have attended Jewish weddings and funerals as well as Catholic, and both were Germans. Can a Jew be a Teuton or can a Lutheran be an American are both the same question. The Jewish religion is taught all over the globe." A New Fish Story. — Mr. Sumner Clark, of Comvllle, Maine, a few days since, was digging a ditch through a piece of low land, and when at the depth of three or four feet he struck a vein of pure water that gushed out two inches or more in diameter. As he stood looking at It a fish five or six inches long appeared, and at last another, until he had gathered thirty. The fish resembled what is usually known as & chub.

TRUST WHAT TIME HAS SANCTIONED. THE MAXIM THAT THE VOICE OF THE people is the voice of the divinity, may in some eases be open to doubt, but the testimony of honest and enlightened witnesses, extending through a se ries of years, and all to the same purport, is worthy of credence-admits of no question. Upon such tes timony the reputation of Hoctetter’s Stomach Bit ters, as an antidote and cure for many ailments, is based. During the twenty years that it has been be fore the world innumerable preparations, intended to compete wRb it, have gone up like rockets and come down the extinguished sticks. Meanwhile the pro gress of that incomparable tonic has beeD swift and steady—always upward and onward, like the eagle’s flight. Its introduction produced a revolution in therapeutics, and it proved to be one of those salu tary revolutions that cannot go backwards To-day Hostetter’s Bitters is one of the mos’ popular reme dies in Christendom, and commands a larger sale than any other medicinal preparation, domestic or imported, on this side of the Atlantic. Asa cure for dyspepsia, bilious disorders, nervous affections, gen eral debility,-and of epidemic fevers, 1t bakes precedence of every other remedy. This fact should teach the ambitious country dealers, who endeavor to foist their local abortions on the public in its stead, how futile their small attempts to cajole the community must necessarily he. Where the game l sh have failed there is no channe for the “suckers.” seplb-toctl B&- PAIN MAY BE SAID TO FOLLOW pleasure as its shadow, bnt the misfortune is that, in t his particular case, the substance belongs to the shadow ; the emptiness to its cause. But pain may he relieved, and the affliction caused to turn from “ mourning into gladness,” inasmueli as the “ Old Carolina B.tiers” is the best friend of the invalid.
