It Beesl that "the woman ques tion" has reached the halls of Con gross and Mr. Julian is the pioneer of the movement. This Mr. Julian ro poses a sixteenth amendment, wEich is to forbid any State to deprive any of its citizens of the right-of suffrage, by reason of their sex. On this sub. jeot, the New York World says: "Doubtless, \1r. Julian's bill will be killed after the House has disoussod it to soeie extent; but its introduc tion is only another evidence of the prominence which the woman ques tion is rapidly assuming. The agita. tion of the subject will succeed to the anti-slavery agitation, juat as the lat. ter sucooeded the temperance move ment. It is a note-worthy fact that three topics, which, more than any others, have engaged the attention-of the present generations of Americoa.s, have had no direct connection with religion. The questions which can interest 'an entire nation to-day are not religious, but political, economio, or sooial ones. No attempt to oreate a -No-popery,' excitement could sue coed eith ir in this country or Eng land ; and the tone of the press has lately shown how little Interest our people have taken in the discussion of Mormon peculiarities which the bill abolishing polygamy has called forth in Congress. Matters of faith have no longer the hold they once had, when a whole community could be agitated, as New England was a cen tury ago, on such purely theological orotchets as "Hopkinsonianism.' T hose schemes which propose the improve ment of the phy aioal, social, or politi eal- condition of mankind ean now alone command the interest or arouse the enithusiatsm of~ a populatio." iED30AL, Col.LCOs.-At a meeting of the Trustees of the Medical Cole loge of. the State of South Carolina, held at the Medical College yester day, Professor E.] Geddings's resigna tioni from the chali- of InstItutes and Practice of Medloine *as needpted.

The, returns of the field and general hospitals are known for 1861-6-, and if it be fair to assume that the total mortality of 1863, and 1864 wasfuxlly equal to that of 1862, then the total of deaths In tho.Cgnfederate army in 1861-65 was at least 160,400, etolusive of the deaths in the Northern prisons, which would swell the number to near 185,. 000,; and if the deaths among the discharged for wounds and disease, and among the slok and wounded on furlough, be added, the grand total of deaths in the Confederato army, dur Ing the entire war, did not fall far short of 200,000. Accoording to this calolation, the deaths from disease were about three tines as numerous as those resulting from the casualitlo of battle. The available Confederate force capable of aotive service did not, aor. ing tb 'intire war, exceed 600,000 men. Of this number not more than 400,000 wore enrolled at any one time ; and the Confederate States never had in the field more thin 200,. 000 men capable of bearing arms at any one time, exclusive of siok, wounded and disabled.

These are not the times that were prorised the laboring men and me chanics under the reign of the "Gale. na Tanner" by Republican journals and orators, and laborers are walking tho streets of loya towns askiug for work. The Galesburg Free Press draws a gloomy picture of our neigh. boring city of colleges and railroads. Itsays: "We are sorry to record the fact that'soores of men are at present out of employment in this city. It is indeed a pitiful ight to see healthy, able-bodied men begging for a job of wood sawing, and hardly i6 a load of wood uilouded in any part of the city, before there are hlf a dozen applicante for th privilege of cutting it up. A gentleman, living near the depot, informed us this morning, that a Swede man, with tears in his eyes, implored hini for the job of sawing his wood, as he wanted to earn some thing, no matter how small the amount. Those are every day occurrences, and are sources of deep regret to the be nevolent and philanthropic." D'IsRAEL, WATEs.-Beyond all question, the most remarkable doen. ment of the nineteenth century is the inaugural message of Alcorn, of Mis sissippi. No mortal man has ever bfore seen such a jumble of sopho. merio hifalutin, sycophantic toadyism, old-flag sentimentalism, undigested and sesquipedalian pomposity, aggre gate I and aggravated platitudes, con ceutrated and conglomerated twaddle about nothing and everything. Grant himself could act write a mere un meaning rigmarole, and Boutwell with his "eye ini a fine frenzy rolling" at "Lho hole in the aky," coul d not send op wetter rockets of rhetoric that will neither fiash nor fizzle.

The New York &press comments on the fact that prices ',0enorally are not showing sympathy -with the fall of gold. The reason add the obsta Ole to such a common teoding as thus stated : "Prices of the neceVerles of life will never reach a rois'ohable level until the 6xisting high tkriff is swept away. What advantage Is it to the industril classes if government pap or is as good as gdld, if thq ,puruhusable power of that paper ia.no greater than it was when gold wA at 20 or 25 premium?

Until we are relieved of that load, the decline in gold will not matorially %elp the far. mor, laborer, artisan, or the salaried clerk-muoh as the stook -gamblers of Wall street may makeo( it4 "The way to bring down the neoos. saries of life to time old ante-war level, and to make the disappeerance of the gold premium tell in tho interests of the industrial and commercial olasses, is to go to work and get Congress at Washington who wilt ezoecto the will of the people, and not the will mere ly of the greedy and ail-devouring monopolists. In this respect, the qu^'.eon is one quite beyond the nar. t , itrcle of partisan , politics, and taere is no reason,' therefore, why honest Republicans,, opposed to tax ing the many. for thebopefit of a se. leot and pampered few, should not,for once, pull in the sami harness with the Democrats. . . It is a long time sinoe anything has been hoard of South Carolina. It has been so thoroughly subjugated to negro domiration that.. we did not know there was a partiloe of pluck left. Recently, however, some of the whites have ventured to remonstrate against the great crime' which Oon. grcas Is eiacting. Thoylay : "You ma11ke us poss u1ddor the yoke, and we shall have to do 0n, by Ivety means which God- ahd ogtees tave left us under the Constitution and laws we shall resist this domination of an inferior race, by peaceful means, by , political efforts, by ind ustrial agency. We will carry on this po litical cotitest until we regain the control which of right belongs to the power of mind and the influence of virtue." We like to hear even this modest remenstance 'against a crime wholly without a parallel in the history of the world. It certainly justifies any meanb of resistanco and retribution I and we only regret that South Caro lina has not the power to deal with these audacious usurpers and despots as they deserve.-The Crisis, Ohio. SOMFTHING NZW IN THE STNA' GoGuE.-It is stated that a number of Jewish ladies in this city have estab. lisbe.d an industrial home for poor Jowesses, the first of the kind orgen ized in tho Jewish Church.

Howard, of Kiugston. Ga., a gentlo man of high standing, acknowledged skill as a geAogist, and of superior intelligence, made a minute examina tion of the mineral region of Georgia and Alabama, at the request of Mr. Hulbert, then superintendent of the Wostern and Atlanto Railroad, (the property of the State,) to whom Mr. .oward made a very able report of his investigations, showing beyond a doubt the extent and valuo of the mineral -deposit of the country to which I refer. Had a similar report from an equally high authority been made about Montana, Idaho, or the CoUntry adjoint tn the highest peak of the Rooky Mountaine, a floo ofI emigration would have set in towards the El Dorado, and companies would have been formed, with sales of stock at fabulous prices. But hore at their very doors, within fifteen or twenty miles of several railroads and navi gable streams, peoplo are told that the "rioho.t Copper gnown to the min. er,'" some of "tho richest and most valuable iron ores of our Western mountains," and that the finest coal in any qatantitles, are within their reauh with no "difficulties to over. come,'' and the infurnation is as lit. tle heeded as if they had been told oue of tho least probable tales of the au. thoress of "Vaahti." Sinco the pub. lioation of Mr. Howard's report, to which Mr. Hulbert gave a very wide circulation, I do not know of any or g anized effort having been made, nor do I bullove that any has boon made to make this mineral treasure avail. able. One of the chief causes of th's strange apathy is the cotton ma nia. Eovery energy is bent to raise Cotton. Thero is no time and no moans to engage in any other enter prise. "We are an agrioultural peo. plo," it is said ; "we do not under stand anything else. Wo havo plenty of land, and we can raise plenty of cotton and sell it at twenty-five ene a pound. We cannot, go into any business that will pay as well as that." Nobody seems to romeiber, and few to know, that a diversified industry concentration of capital, are essential to the material prosperity of a poo. people ; that it depends altogether upon a singlo product of the soil, iA a fatal fallaoy in the long run ; that a ootton erop exceeding two and a half millions of bales will result in bring ing the price below a remunerative standard, and that those countries and communities which are the most pros porous are those whose industry and productions are the most diversified. A Goo) Wire.-All who have ex perienced the happiness of married !ife will acknowledge the beauty of the following sentiment of Daniel Web ster-of course confirmed bachelors have no more conception or apprecia. tion of it than the blind have of the beauties of nature : "There is noth ing upon this earth can compare with the faithful attachment of a wire ; no oreature who, for the object of her love, is so indomitable, so persevering, so ready to suffer and die. Under the most depressing circumstances, woman's weakness becomes a mighty power, her timidity becomes fearless courage, all her shrinking and sinking passes away, and her spirit acquires the firmness of marble-ad mantine firmness-when circumstances drive ber to put forth her energics under the inspiration."
