The desire.for the repealof the-13th section of the
Amnesty Act seems to be abating, in view of the
fact that nineteen-twentieths of the property af?
fected by it has already been restored to Southern
owners, Which restoration cannot now-be disturb?
ed. The repeal would affect only a few promineni
Southerners now absent from ;the country, and
who own hut little to be confiscated. It will be
.contended, we learn, by several Senators, that the
tendency will be to disturb the confidence, embar?
rass the industry, and hazard loss .to Northerr
creditors of Southern merchants.
Tlie New York Herald's Washington .correspond
. ent, in .referring to the action of the Radicals re?
garding-the President's appointing .powers, says :
"It has heoomo a i interesting question here
whether.it will not check, If net entirely stopi thc
machinery of government, if Congress persists ir
its proposed.nieasures abridging .the powers of thc
Executive. For instance, if Congress persists thal
appointments shall be made by tho President in a
certain m??ner, and the President does not choose
to appoint afc all, there is no constitutional an
thority.to compel him to. Hence in case of vacan?
cies in important office's the damage to the inter?
ests of the conntry is obvious."
It is believed in-;Washington that after thc
: adoption hy Congress of the Suffrage Bill for that
District, the city charter will betaken away, and
tb.3 city governedby a board of 'four Commission?
ers, to be appointed hy tho President. These
Commissioners . will absorb the functions of the
.?ty governments of Washington and Georgetown.
Along bill on?he subject bas been proposed foi
presentation to Congress. Most of the large
property owners of the city are in favor of the
. change, because they believe such a commission
?will have more influence with Congress, and obtain
;larger appropriations for improvements, &c
Southern Senators and Representatives now in
Washington held a meeting for consultation at
Willard's on Sunday evening. Among those pre
eenfc were Governor STABKJE, of-Mississippi; Gov?
ernor PASSONS and Mr. FOSTEB, of Alabama; and

finite course of action was agreed on. Should
events require it, a general meeting of .all the
Southern Representatives may be oalled early in

The New York Journal of-Commerce thinks that
the impression is gainingground that staple goode
have reached about the lowest point, and here and
there a hold operator has been induced lo pick nf
invoices of desirable goods offered at a .concession,
io hold them over for another season. We think
?hat many houses with moderate capital, which
have bought for cash or abort time, have been toe
liberal in granting credits to their country custo?
mers, and finding, themselves disappointed in ma
Jsmg collections, will bo pinched in their finance^
feefore the opening of the next season. But a little
-pressure of this sort does not imply insolvency.

CHARLESTON.
THURSDAY MORNING. DECEMBER IS, 1866.
THE SOUTHERN STAND-POINT.
Thc view to bc taken of thc present posture of
national affairs, and the actings nnd doings o^
the dominant ps vty at Washington, from the
stand-point already indicated in our ideas of the
situation, cannot but afford something of a grim
satisfaction. It is true that the rights of thc
States are not more likely to be preserved in?
violate now than they were a year ago, but a
fairer prospect affords itself that the integrity
of thc Constitution will be maintained; that thc
Southern States will be admitted to their full
share in the Government, and that they will be
left to pursue thc prosperity still in store for
them, freed from tho embarrassments and diffi?
culties incident to the present abnormal state of
affairs. Then, bovvovcr, wc reasoned as io thc
future from a continually shifting base; then we
were continually perplexed by the doubtful is?
sues of a conflict between two powerful
branches of thc Government; and arguing from
thc right of our position, and our confidence in
thc ability and desire of the . President to pro?
tect that right, we were induced joyfully to ac?
cept, as conclusions, what proved as unreal as
the promises which supported them. Upou
what seemed the clear revelations of one daj
the glad assurance was based that our people
though disappointed in their exertions for ?
separate government, could still proudly clain
the title of freemen; while the doubtful inter
pretations of the next mocked their hopes, ant
seemed to present nearer still the bitter chnlic
of subjugation. Now the issue of the struggl
seems no longer dubious, and, however gloom;
may be the thought that our expectations have nc
been realized, still there is, as we have said
a satisfaction in finding something certai
in our situation from which we may argue ast
our future prospects.
It is argued by some that the power of the Presi
dent, constitutionally exercised, may still prov
an effectual barrier against the further raging
of the Radicals; that, as the executive, he hs
the right to judge himself of the constitutional
ty of laws, and to refuse to allow those to ope
rate which, in his opinion, violate the provL
ions of the Constitution.
We are disposed freely to accord this pow?
to the President, but we con feel no assurant
that it will ever be exerted. On the contrar;
he has exhibited a disposition to interfere wil
Congress no further than in the way of gra1
} protests in messages, and the use of the ve
power. Laws have been passed over his ve
for constitutional reasons, and however the J
diciary have asserted their high prerogative
dealing with them, yet the President himsi
. has offered no bar to their execution. Beside
: if he should venture on such a course, the o
. stacie he presented might be removed by 1
1 impeachment, or he might be forced from 1
1 constitutional basis to a physical issue wi
Congress.,
To us it seems certain.vthat the President c
. never carry the principles of his policy to th
[ logical conclusion in any manner, without
i some point asserting an authority not deducil
1 from the Constitution, and it appears very cit
' that he has no idea of doing anything of 1
1 kind.
Armed, then, only with the thunderbolts
. have already referred to, the President can
: Congress but little harm, and he seems to hi
? virtually retired from the contest. In his messs
1 he says : "The Executive Department found t
1 it had accomplished nearly all that was wit!
\ the scope of its constitutional authority."
' goes on to say that one thing remained to
j done, that is, the admission to Congress
. members from the States which seceded, '
? expressly recognizes the power of Congres!
. fit that keystone in its proper place. 5
Executive bas done all that it can do or is go
1 to do, and it is well, therefore, that the Sot
' ern people contemplate, with whatever ct
placency they may, their situation and pi
i pects under the sway of the Republican pai
i As one consequence of this situation, let
recover from the delusion that we have i
active part to play in the drama of natic
' affairs. Our people have been laboring un
' this idea-as they generously responded to
call of the President and yielded, as far as
logic of events required and their honor wc
. permit, to his exactions ; but, now that
? arms have fallen powerless, let them .qui
. contemplate the spectacle as those who i
suffer but cannot resist ; not, without " ntei
\ for that would be unnatural-but an inte
. made subservient to tho calls of duty in
. ways of usefulness and the paths of prospe
i now Opening before them. Tnr enterprises
1 local objects, projects for developing the
. sources of th? State at large, for benefit
ourselves, our neighbors.and a whole com
J nity, the citizen may find scope* for his ?bi
[ his talent, and his virtue, and we can now
i no ground for apprehension that .such exert
i will be without their legitimate fruits. ~ ' '
1 CULTIVATION OF . WOOL IN THE BO I
i . .. .. . ... _ ... . ' ? .
The Baltimore Transcript, in referring t<
, above subject, says the following, whicl
, commend to our readers : " The increase ii
wool of the United States from 1860 to 1
. was 8,064,885 pounds ; increase Southern S
1 815,164. The Southern States are better a?
ed to sheep husbandry than any portion o:
world, and we would specially commend
branch of enterprise to the attention of
people. The idea entertained by some St
' ernerB that the South is. too warm for she?
flourish, is entirely .without foundation. &
have been bred on the eastern, continent
the Equator to the 65th degree north lati
J"h? Merino has boen bred in Europe a
south as between thc 86th and 88th parall
latitude, and as far north as Sweden. ~ li
, have flourished among the rico swamps of
da and South Carolina, and are just as healthy I
is in tue mountainous regions. Any part ofi
Maryland or Virginia is admirably adapted
[br sheep raising.. The -whole South has a
most decided advantage over other parts of the
United States for the production of wool, in
Boil, climate, and abundance and variety of
grasses. The winter feeding of thc most favor?
ed parts of the North averages 150 days, and
costs, under the most favorable circumstances,
27? cents per pound, whilst in the Southern
States it is not necessary to feed in winter, ex?
cept in the most extraordinary circumstances.
The Southern States, including those west of
the Mississippi river, embrace an area of four
hundred and fifty thousand square miles, or
two hundred and eighty-eight million square
acres. The attention to sheep husbandry need
not impair the cultivation of the great Southern
staples. The United States, before' thc late
war, produced 578/ J,478 pounds of cotton
more than half the /op of the whole world.
Thc cotton crop of . the world amounted to
1,000,000,000 pounds, which would require
4,000,000 acres. The four States of Louisiana,
Mississippi, Alabama and Florida, contain 130,- ;
000,000 acres, and could alone supply the de?
mand of all thc markets in the world. After
deducting ail the land in thc Southern States
devoted to cotton, rice, wheat, oats, rye, tobac?
co, &c, a balance is bpft of fourteen millions of
acres which might bo employed, in sheep hus?
bandry. The time has come when tho South
should make available every species of enter?
prise, and there is none more eligible, under
present circumstances, than sheep husbandry."
BEFORM I2f ENQLANB.
The great reform aernonstration in London,
on the 3d instant, is said to have been the most
important affair of the kind ever seen in that
city. There were forty-seven tra<*e societies
in line, and fully fifty thousand persona, which,
in a population of over 'hree millions, is not
much to boast of. But the magnitude of ?he
English reform movement is unquestionable,
and the fast anchored isle may ere long slip
from its moorings, and be tossed like a cork
boat on the waves of revolution. We, do not
anticipate any permanent enlargement of civil i
liberty from the success of the English Radi?
cals. JOHN BBIGHT and the other leaders are
ambitious men, looking, like all demagogues,
to their own advancement, and using .popular
professions simply as means to that end. The
experience of mankind is, that successful dema?
gogues are in general greater tyrants than
those whom they supplant. There are abuses,
no doubt, in the English Government as well
as in all other governments, but whether they
are greater than those which will follow a
change, remains to be seen. On the whole,
there is no Government in which there is so
much of liberty regulated by law, and it will
be a bad day for Old England when JOHN
BRIGHT succeeds, in . substituting his theories
and abstractions for' the British Constitution,
which is simply the experience and common
sense of the English people.
ABVICE TO THE SOUTH.
The New York Times has been one of our j
most persistent advisers of late. The last num- 1
ber of that consistcnt(?) sheet (edited by HEX- |
RY J. BRAYMONT*-the fellow who wrote the
"stunning" Philadelphia Convention address,
and who was lately begging to be let into the
Radical caucus at Washington), tells us most
sweetly as follows :
We can tell the South something more. Unless
the pending Amendment be accepted by the South?
ern Legislatures, the fate of existing governmental
organizations at the South may be considered
fixed. We indulge in no menace. We affect no
prophetic vision. We essay no abstract argument,
and lay claim to no exclusive information. But
there is a fact which the South cannot too quickly
comprehend, and that is, that in the absence of a
settlement based upon the proposed Amendment,
Congress will affirm"the territorial existence of the
Soutu, legislate out of official being its present
functionaries and machinery of government, and
provide for the - organization of Territories on a
plan suited to tho emergency.. Are the Southern
people prepared for this alternative ?
M?st of our readers would answer Mr. R.,~
we have no doubts as a prominent character in
a very old play once did. when offered advice :
"D-your sentiments and advice."
PUNISHMENT FOB. MISBEHAVIOB IN CHDECH.-A
Dublin letter, of November 13, says: Peter Donnel?
ly was brought before Mr. McDermott, at tho Head
Police Court to-day. charged with "having con?
ducted himself in a disorder!;' manner, calculated
to provoke a breach of the peace, by having hissed
his Grace the Archbishop of Dublin, with intent to
insult him, when leaving St. Mark's Church, after
Divine service on the 12th instant" The prisoner
was among a number of young men who waited in
the churchyard and hissed the Archbishop when
ho came out of Church with his daughter, and he
was arrested by Chief Superintehd?nt Campbell;
but it was doubtful whether he had himself actual?
ly hissed, and witnesses were produced to prove
the negative: He was, therefore, let off on his
own recognizances to appear when called on, espe?
cially as ne seemed much distressed at the posi?
tion in which he-was placed.
There was a large number of strangers at the
church, as an attempt had been made by posting
placards in the pariah' to get up. an organized dis?
turbance. AUwent.cn quietly, till the Archbishop
read his text. Then two hundred or three hun?
dred persons, mostly . young- men, who crowded
the'aisles, left the-ehurcbv . There was some noise
made' during their departure, and a few persons
hissed and coughed, but these attempts were
quickly suppressed. During' ' this ' insulting: der
monstrataon the rn o st. re ver end preacher stood Ul
the pulpit calmly looking, on, its ? pitying his anti
tractanan antagonists, and then. proceeded with
his sermon for the Society for. the Propagation of
the.Gospel without the slightest allusion to the
occurrence. The congregation which remained
waa large and attentive: . ?no'ofihe. placards con-1
tained a denunciation of ' ritualism from the late
church of the Bishop, of Cork.
FACTS OF' HISTOKI AND ABT.-Under this head
there is a lively anecdotal article in a late'number
of the Edinburgh'Review,'in which lively articles
are rather few and far between. The following are
short random extracts : Dr. Morrison breathed
his last, grasping a box of. hie own pills, and call?
ing for morel The Curieux relates a trait of en?
thusiasm ott the part of a milord, which, we sus?
pect; will prove new to nis- countrymen. A Scotch
Earl, Lord Fife, gave Madame Vestris a thousand,
guineas to allow a cast to be taken of her leg; the
Earl died, and this cherished log1 was sold for half
a cr?wn. Frederick !the. Great's collection Of snuff?
boxes amounted to. more than one thousand five
hundred. Talleyrand had a . peculiar. snuiT-box; it
was double, two . snuff-boxes joined together by a
common bottom!.- . The-one was politely offered to
his acquaintances;- the other, never to be profaned
by the finger" and thumb of a third person, was
reserved for himself. Here we recognize the cbplo
matist, so eternally on his guard,' that when a lady
requested his .autograph, Too wrote his name on
the very top of the sheet of paper handed to him .
The fashion of powdering the hair with gold dust,
which has recently found votaries at London and
Paris, was commenced by Hoppaea, the wife of
Netti,- and copied .by Lucine Vorus. tho adopted
son of Aurelius. The golden and aubnrn tints in

PHILADELPHIA UNIVERSITY OP MEDI?
CINE AND SURGERY.
Organized, 1848-Chartered by the Legislature, Feb. 26,
1853-Amendments to Charter, Feb. 15,1860, and March
15, 1865.
TWO FULL SESSIONS OF LECTURES EAL H YEAR,
commencing the first of October, and continuing
until April. The Dissecting Rooms are open, and pri?
vate lectures and quizzes continued during thc entire
year. The first session continues until Christmas, or for
three months, and the second until the first of April, or
three mouths ; the two constituting one full course of lec?
tures. Examination or candidates for graduation wQI
occur at the end of each session.
Exquisites for Graduation-The requisites for gradua?
tion are three sessions of lectures, and three years study ;
or four sessions, including two years spent at the Uni?
versity.
The System of Medicine Taught-The University is a
liberal medical school, in which all branches of medi?me
and surgery are taught including the preparatory studies,
without regard to any sectarian views. Hence, white
they deprecate the exclusiveness of Allopathy, Homoeo?
pathy, Eclecticism, Hydropathy, etc., they believe that
all principles of cure and therapeutical agents should be
' taught in all well-regulated medical schools, and that
every intelligent honest, and thorough practitioner is
entitled to all the courtesies and privileges of the
I profession, without regard to his peculiar notions ia
therapeutics.
Fees.-The fees for all branches, including all the
tickets, matriculation, and dissection, are $60 a session,
or $120 per year. Those who purchase tickets only have
to matriculate once, which makes the second session $56r
including demonstrator's fees, or $115 for a fall course.
To aid young men of moderate means, thc University
j has issued five hundred scholarships, which are sold to
first-course students, for S75, and to second-course stu?
dents and clergymen for ?50, each constituting the holder
a life member, with the perpetual privileges of the lee
, tures, and all the teachings of the school. Tho only ad?
ditional fees are a yearly dissecting and matriculating
ticket each of which is SS.
T?ie Advantages of Scliolarships.-The student holding
a scholarship can enter thc College at any time during
the year, attend as long as he chooses, and re-enter tb?
Institution as frequently as desired.
It requires no previous reading or study to enter the
, University on scholarships, hence all private tuition fees
i are saved. ?
Students, by holding scholarships, can prosecute other
business a part pf the time.
The candidate for graduation con present himself at
any time, and receive his degree as soon aa qualified.
In case a student should hold a scholarship and not be
able to attend lectures, it can be transferred to another,
thus preventing any loss.
Parents, guardians or friends of students wishing te
purchase scholarships for them a year or more before
their attendance at the University, eau secure them by
advancing one-half the price and paying the balance
when the student enters. Physicians and benevolent
men can bestow great benefit upon poor young men by
presenting them a scholarship, and thus enabling thens,
to obtain an honorable profession. .
