COLUMBIA, S. C. Wednesday Horning, August 10,1870. Tlic Pu?t and tho Future of tho South. In bis groat vindicatory work, entitled "A Constitutional View of the Late War Between the States," Mr. Alexan? der H. Stevens, speaking for tho South, remarks: "Amidst our ruins, bereft of fortunes and estates as well as liberty, with no? thing remaining to us but a good name and a public character, we will, iu the common misfortune, still cling to tho land of our memories, for a land without memory is a land without liberty." This sentiment will address itself with a sad emphasis to the hearts of thou? sands in this section, and yet are wo in? clined to think that there is in Mr. Stephens' declarations something too much allied to that spirit which lingers rather long by thc memories of tho past, when the future lies before us with its claims, its hopes and its duties. Heaven forbid that the true sous of the South should ever cease to hold in grateful romombrauce tho labors, the sufferings, tho trials, the services of that grand company of patriots, dead aud living, whose uames aro linked with our "Lost Cause." But is it uot true that sra best honor the memories of the past 'by a Ijrave trust in the future? It is ttruo thal we have beou bereft of much in the South. Much of the prido and the flower of tho land has fallen by bat? tle or disease. We have lost precious lives. It is true that much of our liber? ties as well a3 of our fortunes and estates has been lost to us. Yet whilst appre? ciating all this, lot us remember that much more than a Rood name aud a pub? lic character is left to us. Much, but not all, has boen lost. We have left to us our energies, our resoluto hearts, our wills to do and achieve, and great natural resources in fields, forests, metals nnd climate. We have the meaus to build np what has been thrown down, aud to sow the fields once devastated by war. Whilst, therefore, we do romain loyal to the "land of our memories," let us march steadily to realize the land of our hopes. In spite of tho untoward cir? cumstances around us-in spite of the political curb that has been put upon us let us bear ever in mind that the same spirit and genius that made the South what it was, can siezo thc reins of powei and mastery, and make her in tho future what wo would desire her to be. Let that sublime impulse that moved our troops at Gettysburg and that nerved them on all the fields of victory, or of brave endeavor, in the late war betwecu the States-let this spirit and these ener? gies and thesa patriotic labors now seek to repeat themselves iu the departments of civil life; and the South aud South Carolina will live agaiu in the prido and prosperity of a renewed aud regenerated and redeemed people; aud agaiu we . shall take iu our bauds the sceptre of our influence aud power. Whilst, then, the great heart of the South responds to Mr. Stephens' sentiment aud resolves to cling to the "laud of our memories," it will also respond to the demands of tho present, aud "go forth to meet thc sha? dowy futuro without fear and with a manly heart." --?-4 4t ? ?-1-1 The following appointments have been made for Judge Carpenter and Oeueral Butler: Laurens, Saturday, August 13.

With prompt and ready spirit his gallant comrades elevated him to high commnud, aud fol? lowed his lead to battle. A tried aud trusted soldier of the State-an uncor? rupted and incorruptible citizen-a ge? nial sou of tho up couutry-sans pour cl sans reproclic-Col. E. P. Jones is our choice for Congress. GREENVILLE. TUc War. Weissonburg is a small but strongly fortifiod town on tho French side of the littlo river Lauter, about ton miles from the point where it empties into the Rhino. It is connected by rail with the German fortress of Landau, about fifteen miles to tho North-eastward, and with tho French town of Haguenau, about tho samodistanco to theSouth-westwurd. Haguenau is ou tho railroad from Stras? burg by way of Bitche (whore the Prus? sians sonic days ago destroyed n viaduct) to Saarbruck. Tho Prussian victory, ac? cording to present appearances, makes a bad break in tho Freuch frout, and, in connection with tho subsequent damage to tho railroad South of Weisseuburg, uirkcs a French advance towards Landau much moro difficult. Tho destruction of tho viaduct at Bitcho had already brokeu the more Northerly (and somewhat longer) liuo of railway communication between Stras? burg and Motz. The present positiou of tho German forces threatens that liuo in auothcr poiut near Hagueuau. The moro Southerly lino of commut-icatiou is still safe. Tho French seem to have at? tached more importance to Weisseuburg than tho Prussians did to Saarbruck, aud defended it heroically. "Valuing it so much as they did, it seoms remarkable that they did not value it more, and mako themselves stronger there. Tho region around Weisseuburg has secu some hard lighting in old days be? tween the same natious which ure now arrayed upon its soil. Just bcyoud the towu, on tho Freuch side, stretches the considerable forest of Haguenau, and immediately around it are drawn the now crumbling embankments of tho once famous "Hues of Weissonburg," erected by Marshal Villars in nnother war of "tho Spauioh succession," a ceutury and a half ago. The town itself is a small place, with a picturesque old (?orman ca? thedral, aud some six thousand quiet German inhabitants. Besides the Zouaves, tho French army contains thc following special corps: THE ZEPHYRS.-They resemble the Zouaves iu their uniforms, arms, and ?quipaient, and their organization and drill aro almost tho same; but while the Zouaves are a proud corps, aud believe in military honor, such is by no means tho caso with tho Zephyrs. They are simply a corps of culprits and jail-birds. If a soldier of the Freuch army commits a vulgar aud dishonoring crime, that is, if he robs, steals, cheats, or proves to bo n coward, ho is condemuod to serve ou tho galleys, but if he only commits what might be termed a genteel crime, that is, if ho commits manslaughter, or ravishes a womau, or is insubordinate, then he is eoudemued to servo in tho corps of tho Zephyrs. Thoy are permanently sta? tioned in Africa, aud the discipline among these rather dangerous and des? perate characters is terribly severe. Eve? ry officer has the right to kill a Zephyr ou the spot, should ho show the least sign of insubordination, aud to this circuui stauee thoy owe their name, which they adopted themselves, to express thereby ' of how littlo valuo their lives are, which at any time might die out liko a zephyr. Their official appellation is Corps of Puu ishmeut, and they uow cumber so i veral thousand meu. They paiut them? selves with blue ink all over their bodies j in tho most fantastical manner, nud eveu thc hardest punishment could uot put a stop to this singular amusement, to which they seem to havo taken becauso they are not permitted to have cats, aud get no pay. When General Pelissier was ofibr ed tho command in tho Crimea, ho ac? cepted it only upon tho condition that the Zephyrs would accompany him there, and if they should behave well, they were to be pardoned aud permitted to return to their regiments. They were seut there, and their success was complete. lu tho battle near Tactics, tho Rus? sians had formed a square which tho Sar? dinian cavalry had vainly attacked, when General Bosquet, who then commanded thom, advanced tho Zephyrs. Some English officers requested him not to sacrifice his mon uselessly, but General Bosquot made them a speec which com meuced, "You sons of hell," and closed with "forward to tho attack." With a war-cry, Viva la Morl, instead of Viva l'Empereur, they swept into and over tho Ru??iau bayouots like a whirlwind aud soon their yatnghans had mado such ter? rible havoc in tho Russian linop, that tho most desperate exertions of the Russiau officers wero unable to avert defeat. TUE CH ASSEUKS D'AFRIQUE.-These are a cavalry corps consisting of four regi? ments. They carry a long rifle, two re? volvers, aud a sword, and are all mounted ou select horses of the best Barbary blood. Their continuous service in Afrioa amongst and against the Bedouins has made them superior riders, and they perform all the feats on horseback in which thu sons of the desert ezoel; and wiU ride at full gallop, turn in Baddie, and fire to the rear with precision. They also distinguished themselves during the Crimean war. Qeueral Allonvilly, who commanded a corps of 1,500 Chasseurs d'Afrique, attacked with them 12,000 Russian dragoons, tho favorite cavalry corps of tho Emperor Nicholas, on the plain of Simferopol, and dofeated them so completely that their commander, General Corff, committed suicide from shame. How THE FRENCH EMPEROR WENT TO B.VTTLE.-European papers state that tbe baggage of the French Emperor, which preceded him to tho sent of war, looked more liko a traveling hospital than like the traps of a general. It con? tained, among other things, a large medicine chest, three kinds of bathing tubs, and some other bathing appurntus, an invalid's easy chair, a stretcher of peculiar constructiou, aud a great deal of other medical and sick-room apara? tos. Tho horses of the Emperor which were sent, to tho frout were most care? fully selected from thc Imperial stables by tho Emperor's own valet. He picked out the tamest and goutiest brutes he conld find, and even went so far as to buy somo horses, not so much for their beauty and spirit, for they show very little of either, as for their meek and geutlo demeanor. Before they were sent to the front, they were exposed to a great deal of artillery firing, to accustom them to tho roar of cannon, the only thing their rider will probably hear of tho battle, and this took the last vestige of spirit they still possessed away from them. The valet was also most particu? lar iu cxaminiug the saddlos destined for tho usc of his Majesty, had all double wadded, aud bad extra paddings put on tho back. Funeral Invitation.

Lunch overy day at Pollock' HOLPEN DEFIES JUDGE BROOKS.- If any thiiig farther was needed to convince any sane man that Governor Holden is indeed demonted, it is furnished iu the following iuceudiary article taken from his paper, the Standard, of yesterday: "We learn that Judgo Brooks, tho District Judge, who waa in this city, yesterday, hos issued a writ of habeas cor? pus against Col. Kirk, commanding him to produco tho bodies of certain prison? ers held in Yancey ville by order of tho Governor. .'What has Judge Brooks to do willi mordor cases in North Caroliuu? Gov. Holdeu is sustained by tho Supreme Court of tho State. By "what authority docs Judge Drooka disregard tho action of tho State Court ? "Is Judgo Brooks ready to involve thc people of North Carolina in civil war? Does ho suppose Gov. Holden will ro cede before him? "Gov. Holden takes uo advice from Ku Klux murderers or their sympathizers. Ile ia nut in thc confidence, nor is ho the tool of such Ku Klux lawyers as Graham, Moore, Bragg, Merrimou aud Battle Tho Governor will not recede until tho { Federal army is used against him; aud the Federal anny will not bo used against him. Wo arc on the eve of civil war, aud when it begins all the blood and all the horrors of it will be on the skirts of Judge Brooks." A SMASH UP.-Saturday night lust, while the Augusta down passenger train of the Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta Railroad was near Pine House Depot, and going at the usual rate of speed, the locomotivo struck a largo wagon with lour rn ules attached, smashing the wagon, killing one mule, and wounding another so badly that it hud to bc killed. When the accident occurred, the pissen gera felt a little shocked, but had uo idea until tho traiu was ptopped ami an exam? ination made what caused it. It appears that the driver, a colored mau, attempted to cross the track, but while on it his team balked. He heard the train corning and attempted to move forward, but Hull? ing this impossible left his team and rnu for the woods. The cow-catcher struck thc fore part of the wagon, smashed it into little bits and strewed them and thc contents of tho wagou along the left side of tho embankment. Tho wheel mules were toru loose from the leaders, and one hurled a mangled, bleeding mass cf llcsh to the right side of the embank? ment, and the other carried along on thc cow-catcher for about dOO yards, and de? posited dead iu the ditch beside the road. No portiou of the train was injured; the fancy work about the locomotivo received I some severe bruises from the fragments of the wagon. That tho traiu was nut thrown off thc track seoras a miracle. MANLY AND JUST.-The Cincinnati Commercial, being impeached by an ultra' radical newspaper with infidelity to thc party, among other things in reidy, says: "If the policy of governing tho reconstructed States, as illustrated by Governor Holden, of North Carolina, is endorsed by the Republicau party, as it seems to lmvo been by tho President, then tho Commercial is not Republican."
