The Pathway of the Future.
. c BT QKETIS JOHNSON CLARK.
There's ? pathway In tho future
That sur feet must firmly tiead?
Will the sky be bright with sunshine,
.. ,., Or will clouds hang overhead ?
Onee I asked this simple question,
Bnt the Future'.} lips were dumb,
VJ Keening as its own the secret
? f Or the years that are to come.
Then I aeked the sunbeams, playing
Hide and seek upon the tloor?
"Merry sunbeams, will you promieo
To stay with me evermore V
But the sunbeams out tho window
Slyly crept without a word;
Long I listened, but heard nothing
Save the leaves the light wind stirred.
Then the moon and stars I questioned?
Would thty make tho ftiture bright ?
But they gave me b&ck to answer,
Only twinkled down their light.
Then I bowed my head in sorrow,
Wl... tk. r ., .
<u?u VUV Viiuu couio iruui IUU went I
Softly saying, "Lot this secret
Bleep within tbo Future's breast."
Bo I ask no more the question
What tho coming years will bring.
Living in the sunny Present,
I am happy?eo 1 sing,?
Bing when sunbenms fall around me,
^ 6ing when clouds hang overhead ;
Never seeking in the Future
For tho pathway I must tread.
* lliot In Charleston?Military
Called Out.
Yesterday afternoon, about 6 o'clock, an
immeuse crowd (black and white) being
on tho Battery, a disturbance arose, it is
impossible to tell why or how, which soon
culminated in a general free fight, in which
bricks and other convenient missiles were
promiscuously used. The few policemen
on the spot, under tho command of Lieut.
Hendricks, proceeded promptly to dis
charge their duty and make arrests, and ]
had succocdcd in securing three of the
ring-leaders, when Capt. Fields, tho Pro- <
voat Marshal, appeared upon the scene, und
as he was tho senior officer, Lieut. Hen* j
dricks submitted the control of opciations ,
to him. Tho Captain, believing it seems j
in moral suasion, commanded the policemen
not to use their clubs, and went about
among the negroes commanding and be '
seeching them to disperse. The consc- {
quence was that tho disturbance wasqucll j
ed temporarily, and only threo uioro arrests <
were made. There were some two hun- *
dred negroes engaged in the first row. 1
Encouraged by getting off so lightly in [
the first infttiftnnA tho norrrrwifl nnllnntn/l o I
second time under the leadership of some i
eight or ten colored soldiers, unarmed but <
in uniform, and, in a kind of riotous procession,
literally took possession of Wards
1 and 2, marching around the Battery and
through King, Tradd, Meeting, Elliott aud !
other streets in that quarter, creating great (
alarm and ezoitemcnt, but meeting with c
no roaistonee. t
When nows of the second riot, which j 1
was in a manner a continuation of the first, '
was brought to the Guard House, Mayor
Gaillard sent a dispatch to tho military 1
commander of tho Post, asking for assist- i
anoe, and gave orders to the officer of the
day to await his action. Meantime tho
poliee rapidly gathered, and Lieut Minott r
soon had a squad of fifty at his disposal, *
Reports of the increased violence of the 1
mob being made, and demands for assist- *
ance becoming urgent, that officer deter ,
mined to await the military no longer, and t
sallied forth He had scarcely set out
when he mot an officer in command of y
twenty five soldiers who bad been sent to j
his assistance. No sooner did tho military
and police appear upon the streets than
negroes could bo seen darting off in every
direotion, evidently to give warning to tho \
rioters; and when, pursuant to a plan adopt- :
ed, tho soldiers and policemen, in twosepa- <
rate bodies, scoured Wards 1 and 2 from 1
Broad street to the Battery, they met with J
no resistance whatever. The whole crowd
had dispersed; and colored soldiers proba- i

[ Charleston Newt.
Mobile, Ala., June 23.?Tho shack- 1
ling of Jeff Davis, as described by Surgeon '
Craven, was puDlished in the Register this '
morning. It causes universal indignation. '
The "Register and Advertiser says:? The
treatment of Napoleon Bonapart by <
Great Britain was noble, chivalrous, hu (1
mane, courteous, magnificent, when com- '
pared with the indignities infiictcd in tho 1
name of Republican America upon Jefferson
Davis. It was not Jefferson Davis ,
alone that was subjected to cruel indignity (
by this cowardly act. Tho outrago was (
committed upon tho oight millions ot poo ;
pie whom ho professed to regard as broth- \
era.
Tho iron entered into their souls. It j
now entors into tho soul of every honest ,
man and every virtuous woman that reads
this shameful story. It is a story that will
stir the soul of the voricst stoio that exists." ]
Horrible Accident.?Tho Louisville '
Courier givo an account of a most distressing
accident that occurred at Louisville
a few days sinoe. The floor of a water 1
# . closet giving way beneath them, Miss Jen- 1
Die Brown and Miss Sailic Hart were preoinitated
together into tho sink below,
where their dead bodies were found about (
an hour after tho accident. Miss Brown I
and Miss Hart wcro both beautiful and >
accomplished, tho former being seventeen 1
and tho latter nineteen years of age. j
An old gentleman remarked the other
day that in 1776, wo went to war on ac- <
count of tho Stamp Act, and got the nig- >
ger; while in 1861, we went to war about i
the nigger and got. the Stamp Act <
Pacific Railroads.
Amoug the greet enterprises of the ego
which eppeer to hare boon lost sight of among
the more ezoiting topics that have occupied
publio attention, are the various railroads i hat
have been projeeted and are now reaching their
irou fingers across the western prairies to the
Paoifio coast. Contending with obstacles that
would have frightened men of any other ago,
the engineers ol those roads are pushing bravely
forward at the rule of about three q larters
of a mile per day. So earnest are the contractors
of one of these railroads?the Union Pacific?which
travels west from Omaha, that
they contemplate providiug artificial lights to
expedite the werk by night as well as da}*, so
as to complete if possible two miles every
twenty lour hours. Two passenger cars and
one hundred and uinclec. box and p at form
oars, are by this time running ono hundred
m.les west of the above named town. When
completed it is believed that this Uuiou Pucifiio
Railroad will become a feeder, as well as a receiver
ot trade and business of no ordinary
magnitude, ana it is no stretch of tticiuiagiuatiou
to suppose that the tonnage of this great
national highway will, at no distant day, consist
largely of the precious ores from the mineral
districts of our western States and territories
sent to the eastern States, where cheap
fuel, cheap labor, and improved machinery will
be used for their smcltiug and refining. The
development of this rich mineral domaiu must
enure to the welfare of the nation, borne dowu
as it is by a tremendous debt, but if the same
amount of capital and liberal spirit were bostowed
upon the development of the agricultural
resources of the South, the amount of
wealth that would be poured into tlic cotfcrs of
the country would be three fold as gieat as
that likely to resuit from these national pet
undertakings known as Union and I'acitio
railroads.? Carolinian.
Mr. H. Rivera Pollard and Mr. Saml. James,
brother in law of Mr. E. A. l'ollnrd, have had
some difficulty in Richmond. From the accounts
published, both of these gentlemen tussled
together before they were scpurated. when
according to Mr. James* version he was followed
down stairs by the wash bowl, a pair of

his Examiner of the 27 th, in which he says :
"1 now post him as a liar, poltroon and
coward.
Sam Jnmes is further informed that the
above card will be posted by nte in all the holds
of the city, and other public places, between
the hours ofO and 10 o'clock this morning."
M. Melsens, a French chemist, has found
lhaL tobaccos from various countries contain
licotino in very different proportions. In to
tacco from 6ouio parts of France there is 7.06
>or cent, of uicotinc, whilst Havana tobacco
ioutains only 2 per cent. IIo proposes to
unokcrs a way of preserving them from the
iffects of tho alkaloid, by putting into thctubo

impregnated with citrio and tannio acids.

if Prussia, who, it is understood, refuses to
nake any Masons (he being Grand Matter of

Railboad Acci^tst.?The train on Wcdlesday
evening, on the Greenville Railroad,
net with an accident which, however, fortulately,
did not result in an7 damages to tho
laseengers on the train. An Enpflne, with
three cars, was thrown off the track, in consequence
of some injury to the trestle work,
ibout one milo and a half this sido of Alston.
The trains ran up ycsterdity as usual, perhaps
vith only two or three hours delay. The dainige
to the road was repaired yesterday. All
s right again. ? Columbia Daily Patriot.
Salt Cuimnkys.?In building a chimuey,
lut a quantity of salt into the mortar with
shich the intercourses of brick nro to he laid.
The effect will be that there will never bo any
iccuuiulation of soot in that chimney. Tho
philosophy is thus stated : "The salt in the
portion of mortar which is exposed, absorbs
noisture from the atmosphere every damp day.
Tho soot thus becoming damp, falls down to
he fire-place. This appears to bo an English
discovery. It is used with success in Canada.
Genehai. Hampton.?A correspondent of the
Memphis Argus, writing from Egg's Point,
Mississippi, says : ?'Ten or twelve miles below
ticrc, at Lnke Washington, lives Lieutenant
General Wade Hampton, the second greatest |
;avalry chieftain of the Into Confederacy. He '
iwns extensive plantations, upon which he di- 1
rides his time, devoting himself chiefly to tho
jongoniitl pursuits of a Southern gentleman? I

resented as contented and industrious.
Governor Hamilton, of Texas, arrived in
Washington on tho 17th. He represents mat- i
.era as quiet in Texas, though lie does not re
gard the people us loyal now as they were one
pear ago. The cotton crop, lie states, would ,
iiavo heen very large in t .0 State, had it not
been lor tho recent heavy floods, which have
destroyed at least one half of it. lie further
idds that the lrco labor system is working
well.
Renewed efforts are in progress for tho re- ^
lease of Jefferson Davis from his prison house
it Fortress Monroo lix Governor Pratt and
some of his counsel had an interview with tno
President, to day. Tliey represented that a
release on hail, or on parole, or a change of
air, was absolutely indispensable to the health
of the prisoner- Horace Greeley has written
another strong letter urging the President to
release Mr. Davis.
The Unito.l States Senate was engage.1 on
ho 21st, in consideration of the Consolidated
Tax Bill, and made very good progress on the
neasurc. The House concluded tho consideration
of the new Army Bill, which was then |
passed. Yeas 72; nays 41. It provides for a
naximum of f>0,U00.
It is said that bail to the amount of two uiil- j
liou dollars ran be procured in Baltimore for
Mr. Davis, in five hours. Twenty-five thousand
dollars have already been subscribed to
iefray tho expenses of hi? trial.
