Bixtoon Egyptian dancers are ontertaining tho Piiriaiauo. , f A twelve foot alligator waa killed on tho bay ehoro o? Mobile, by a boy, on Sunday, 20th. TiAxi old eho wolf and six oubB were killed in Marion oouuty, 111., laet week. The colored levee laborera at Momphis struck for higher wagoB on Tuesday, 22d, and attempted to parado the streets. Tho Froodmon's Bureau authorities oausod their arrest. The N. Y. ?ZWounc ?f Friday, says on last Wed nesday and Thursday mornings thoro was sevore frost in nio?t of the suburban towns, and in somo of thom -very serious damage was done. Capt. JOHN COOE, formerly belouging to the rebel Gen. LEB'S stan*, was arrestod in Cbioago on Monday last for being the husband of two wives. The item goes "the round." We know of no auoh man on Gen. LEB'S staff. TOAD. STEVENS would consign the whole South to tho "Penitentiary of Hell." This figure of .peech snows the magnanimity and large heart ednees of THAD.-he would take the South to-bia own bosom. A fall of meteoric stones occurred near Mobile May 14 and 15. They commenced falling at 9 A. M. und continued at intervals all day. The sky was perfectly clear during most of the timo. The atones were of a siliciuus character, and some of them were quite hot whon they fell. Winona, Wisconsin, must be a nice place at the present time. Among the inducements for gen tlemen to settle there, it is montioned that "tho ean fish out of their garret windows, swim in their parlor?, build skiffs on their roofs, practice rowing over their door yards, and keep ducks." Colonel WH. PRESTON JOHNSTON is announced as a candidate for Clerk of the County Offlcea. So says tho Louisville Courier. Col. JOHNSTON is tho son of the late Gen. ALBEET SYDNEY JOHNSTON, and one of the personal aids of JEFFERSON DAVIS in Richmond. A new submarino telegraph cable was laid be tween Boston and East Boston ou the 22d, for the purpose of transmitting fire alarms from tho City Hall to the East Boston signal boxos. The length of the cable was 2G10 feet, and ila weight four tone, and it was laid in less than ton minutes. One of the officers of the police in 15th Ward, New York, has undertaken the horoulea? task of stopping the sale of newspapors on Suru_y. It is understood that his action is not auimorized by "The Board." As the city is undergoing such thorough reformation, wo suppose the Captain thought he would go the entire swine. The English papers say, there is no longer any doubt that negotiations have for somo time been . in progress for the cession of Vcnico by Austria. It is to be hoped theso negotiations may be brought to a successful iusuo, as in that event tho chances of a general European war would bo very much diminished. The Commissioner of Agriculture has received from T. G. BERGEN, of Jamaica, L. I., Now York, a bunch of asparagus, composed of twelve stalks, each about four inches in circumference and thir ' teen inches in height, the whole weighing five pounds. It is understood that it is tho intention to preserve this rare specimen of the agricultural world. Gov. SWAIN, President of tho North Carolina University, has published a letter in which he strongly condemns the conduct of somo students of that institution in issuing a ball ticket with JEFFERSON DAVIS, J. 0. BRECKIN-DOE, Z. B. VANCE and other insurgent leaders, as honorary mem bers. He says bo has no means of preventing oc casional outrages of this nature. The project of building an air-line railroad from Memphis to Cairo is boing extensively agi* taten in West Tennessee. Proposals will be made to the Illinois Central Bailroud Company to fur nish the rails and rolling stock whon the road bed is completed. 'Whon the line is fiuishod its connections will make a most an air-line railroad from Chicago to New Orleans. The proprietors of the Chicago limes have pur chased a lot on Dearborn stroot, betweon Wash ington and Madison, 20 by 90 foot, for $1500 per foot, aggregating $30,000. This is tho highest price ever paid for real estate in Chicago. The Times previously owned 20 foet adjoining. On the united lots the proprietors will erect a bande?me building adapted to the use of their business. Strawberries by tho "car load" 1B something new under the sun; but wo road that two oar loads of strawberries are arriving at Chioago daily from Codden, Anna and Villa Ridge, on tho Illinois Central Railroad. There is an aroa of over 300 acres of strawberries now riponing in those three towns, and promising the heaviest yield that any season has afforded. In I860 Illinois prodnood only six bales oT cot ton. The total yield in 18G5 is estimated at 10,000 bales, twice as much as was exported annually from tho whole country at tho boginning of tho century ; twice as much as was grown by Ken tucky, and nearly as much as Virginia, in 1800. Tho cotton is said to bo equal to that of Tonnessec in quality. The Government have awarded a .contract foi raising the vessels in tho river and harbor of Sa vannah which wore suuk by the rebels to obstruct the channel. The gunboats and other vessel* were souttled and sunk at tho timo tho city wat evacuated. Th oro aro in all about twenty, some of thom valuable, with all their guns and arma ment on board. . Tho Riobmond Ehqu'rer says: "Tho student? n tho University of Virginia arc remarkable for c .ripe nge. About half of the two hundred anti thirty pf the proaenjt mombors aro said to be tblrtj years'old-some of them have families of children, Miiaktora whoornoiate before the students should Jr_rwtbat they are said to be very averse to soi * entino and bolles lettre?

Tho Southern paper? havo an account of tho MCQUEEN will caeo, recently before tho Miss?Bsip- ' pi courte at Holly Springs. It wat* proven in tho ? trial that "tho testator bequeathed his estate to a I niece and four daughters; disinheriting his own daughters because thoy joined the Methodist , church." Tho man was insano, and not long since ho bcoamo BO violent and nncontrollablo that his neighbors took arm I and hunted him like a wild ' boas!, and overtaking him in Calhoun county, shot him down on tho road. The womon employed in "a shoe-binding Bhop in E.-cheater, N. Y., havo "alruok" against a reduc tion of wages. It appoars that somo weckn since, having a largo number of orders, tho employer requested thom to work out of hours, to onablo him to supply tho domand. They did this, hoping to receivo additional compensation for it, hut .veto disappointed to learn that, iusload of pay ment, ho had doterminod to redtico their wages nearly forty por cent. They offored to submit to a redootion of ten por cent., which was refused, and thoy then left. Their number waa 0110 hun dred and twenty-five. The increasing immigration from Ireland has already been noted. A lato number of tho Pall Mall Gazette observes: "Although labor is scarce and wages high in every part of Ireland, tho oxo duB to America ?B rapidly on ti- increase From Cork alone an averago of fifteen hundred embark wcokly, and from tho other Irish ports tho migra tion to the New World, by way of Liverpool, is proportionably rapid. The mastor wish of every Irishman belonging to Iho lower-middlo anti low class Boems to be to leavo his country for ever; an object which the Irish paterfamilias seeks to attain by sending forward across tho Atlantic his hardiest and most promising sons,and daughters, provided with all tho money hu oan rhiao, to carn more for the transport of tho roat of tho family. -.-__--? ,"i. . -' sr AU cominwitoatAont tnustsaed for publication In this Journal must be addressed to the Editor of the Daily News, No. l8 Hoyne-street, Charleston, S.

By foolish expressions of many Southern newspaper.., the Radicals and their organs are making rauch capital. We see, in a late ismie of the Cincinnati Gazette-a journal steeped in vituperation and villainous Blan der, but withal, of course, a prominent paper in its section-some quotations from certain Southern newspapers, which look bad for the South. These sentiments are considered as public opinion, and gives the Jacobins a won drouB amount of ammunition for firing. The paragraphs quoted by the Gazette, and heralded as coming from "the leading South ern journals," set forth that if the South was not so overwhelmingly conquered, another war might take place. As a matter of _ arse the Gazette warns the people of the North that a standing army and the Froedmen's Bureau should continuo in force in the "un reconstructed" States; that negro suffi-age should be admitted there, and that the people of that seotion should be considered subjects of conquered provinces. All this is simply twaddle. The paperB South which speak of another war, only do so because they are wickedly foolish. The respectable journals entertain no such feel ings. They are conducted by honorable and consoiontious gentlemen. They refloat tho views of a large majority of the public, and have no oooasion to resort to radical utter anoeB for support. We candidly confesa that in an ein. like thiB, tho wayward and foolish hot-blooded expressions of a Southerner strikes us with'the same impression that those of the mean and cold-blooded cant of the fri gid Abolitionist. Neither contributes to peace, justice and fraternity, and both unite in de laying the work of restoration, and both are heartily despised by the thinking mosses of the antagonistic Beotions. The Cincinnati Gazette is one of those de testable, perverting journals whioh do an enormous amount of harm. It copies ill meaning paragraphs from the weakest of the Southern journals, and holds them up to its roaders as Southern sootiments. It is one of those festering Bores that, for want of general attention, is constantly not only growing worse in itself, but infecting all that comes in contact with it. We entreat the peoplo North, who are not blinded by prejudice or fanatioismr to oon -der calmly and dispassionately the reports in continual circulation from this seotion. Whatever bitterness, disgust or contempt we may feel toward those who have made us fool, without cause, tho iron hand of military des potism-who havo, in their sole interest, robbed and plundered our homos-still we submit that we are more loyal to-day than those who continually traduce us. " THE LA WS OF WAR." Dr.'BiaUNTsciiiai, a Heidelberg Professor, with anejo to business, has taken advantage of the times, and published a treatise on the Modern Law of War. Dr. LIEBER'S "Arti cles of War," drawn up in 1863, for the use of the armier? of the United States, form the basis and the model of the work. Dr. LIEBER is BO highly flattered at this distinguished re cognition of his labors as a publicist, that he proposes to translate it for publication in this country. The German professor, with the unpro nounceable name, is in raptures at the con - duct of the Amerioan War. Ho says: "The 1 law of war has become more humane in the ( lost wars of Europe and Amorioa," and again . in another page "hopes that the belligerents [in case of a European war] will follow the i example of America." Sancta Simplicity I * Dr. BLUNTSCHLI must have been reading | Harper's Weekly during the last five year?. How else could he have formed snch optimist j notions about tho Amerioan War. But Dr. LIEBER'S "Artiolea" were publiah l? by the Washington War Department in 3enoral Order No. 100, and Buroly tho Ger man Doctor has road thom, inasmuch as ho - lays in his Pref.ioo, thoBO said ArtioloB form : the basis of his work. ThiB Order formed tho rulo of conduct for tho officors of tho Uni tod Stotos army during tho luBt two yorrs - of the war. If tho Hoidolborg Profoseor will como over thiB way beforo ho publishes hi? ? second edition, wo will act as his cicorono, lake him round along Bundry "swaths," mid | nfford bim a rare opportunity of rc-poriising ( G. O. No. 100, A. and I. G. 0. (1803), with tho aid of a very lucid commentary. . Wo shall show him tho beautiful Valloy ? of tho Shenandoah, from Harpor's Ferry to Staunton, as lino a country ao is to bo found this nido of Eden,-with a quiet, harmless, peaceful population, well uontouted to pur sue thoir innocent rusti? avocations, and de siring nothing BO muoh as to bo lot alone. The dear Doctor from Baden will please observe that, in accordance with Dr. LIEDER'S Articles, those peoplo wero "raided" every few weeks. Ono MILROY plundered them systematically till it pleased Gen. LEE: to "run him out" of Winchester. Tho brilliant exploits of Gen. SHERIDAN need scarcely be mentioned; for stand thoy not dooply written in tho thousands of barns and mills burned all over the fair Holds of Virginia ? Why carry the Professor to Eastern North Carolina, to our own Sea Islands, to tbo coast of Georgia or Florida? Why sponk to him of Generals MITCHELL and GRIERSON in Ala bama and Mississippi ? Bless his innocent hoart! has he ever heard of BEN BUTLER and the spoons ? We supposo not. Harper's Weekly never tells such tales. Wc will not trust ourselves to oicerone Dr. B. along SHER MAN'S track. The "Bummers" may still be about. But if tho Professor will honor us with a visit, we will promise to introduce him to several very nice Indies of our ac quaintance, who will post him on the human ity of SHERMAN'S brave boyo. The Laws of War ! Pshaw ! When you can tuko the twist out of the whirlwind, you may think of regulating the savage barbari ties of war. Wo may be mistaken in our opinion, but if so, it WUB in the American war wo formed it, and we are prepared to give ohapter and verse for evory word of it. ? ?i MR. SEWARD'S LATE SPEECH A TA UR- URN. Mr. SEWARD has reoently been on a visit to his home at Auburn, New York, whore he delivered another one of his able and schol arly ?pooches, the principal points of which wo give to-day. This address gives ovidenoo of Mr. SEW ARD'S consistent maintenance of the views heretofore and frequently expressed by bim as to the true policy to be pursued in regard to the Southern States. The word "recon struction," he hoots aB a misnomer-"restora tion" he regarda as an accomplished fact, and the only end now to be attained, he contends, is "reoonoiliation"-the reconciliation of the Northern Senators and Representativos, and their constituencies, to the Southern Senators and Representativos, and their constituencies. So far as tho South is concerned, it has long since signified its willingness to be reconciled. If the question is open, it is entirely the fault of the Northern Senators and Representa tives, and their constituencies. Mr. SEWARD has the consolation of knowing, and we have i ho pleasure of testifying, that he has faith lully done his duty in this rogard. a? a THE TRIAL OF JEFFERSON DA VIS. It is announoed by two of the New York papers--the Times and the Tribune-upon what they claim as good authority, that the trial of JEFFERSON DAVIS will commence at Richmond, Ya., on the fi?st Monday of June Tho defence, it is added, has been entrusted to CHARLES O'CONOR and JAMES T. BRADY, of New York ; W. B. READ, of Philadelphia; Mr. BROWN, of Baltimore Mr. PUGH, of Ohio * and GEORGE SHEA, formerly Corpora tion Attorney for New York. The argu ments, alike for the prosecution and the de f.'Mje, the Times remarks, will involve the um t comprehensive and searching inquest tub's the constitutional authority of the Gov ernment, and the relations of individual States thereto, that has probably ever been made since the foundation of the Union. a ? a THE Radioal journals keep up the most frightful growling over UNDERWOOD'S ridic ulous indictment of ex-President DAVIS. HO has done his work so bunglingly that the loading literary organ of the Radioais (the Nation) frankly confesses that it does not seem "very olear whether the bill of indi o t ment has bean found against him with the view of getting DAVIS off scot-free, or having him punished." Thus we go. UNDERWOOD'S reward for all his dirty work is the derision and contempt of the Radical lawyers, and the bate and suspioion of the prinoipal politicians HI ?I journals of the party. His burlesque DOUBKRHY nhargo to the Grand Jury, and lu- H uo ri y worthless indictment, have placed him just where all respectable people would havo bim. "Hari Kari" is the lost refuge of tho unfortunate man. . ? ? THAT vilo spawn of the Revolutionists, the Civil Rights Bill, is running tho gauntlet of the courts, and seoms to meot v/ith very muoh tho same fate in every section of the Union. Few, if any, of the most Radical judges have yet ventured to pronounce it constitutional, and it is being completely riddled by decis ions adverse to its constitutionality in every direction. Each of those well digested ju dicial thrusts seoms to pierce somo vital point of the monster, and it now HOB in a moribund state. Unless the Supremo Court shall play the good Samaritan to the Civil Rights Bill, bind up its wounds, and pronotinoo it consti tutional, it will do very little mischiof iu any section of the country. * a Wa_NTS.
