Tho latter was pardoned as Hebel Minister to France, and this note is added-2fble: ."Mr. Lincoln promised Mr. Faulkner a full and free pardon if he would come within thu ?. S. lines and take the oath." Mr. F. never received -the-'letter from tho President, -'and consequently was not pardoned by him. The House Bill to commit Indian affairs to tho War Deportment was referred to the Coinmittco on Indian Affairs. Thc Committee on Commerce were directed to inquire into the expediency of in? creasing the pay of Light House Keepera. The Secretary of War was required to inform the House what steps bod boen taken to remove the wreck of the steamer Scotland from New York harbor.

WASHINGTON, January 9.-There are many con? flicting statements regarding the President's de? termination in the matter of pardons. Nothing definite can bo learned, but it is asserted on good authority that several pardons, among them that of Governor Letcher, of Virginia, sent to the At? torney-General's office to be put in proper shape, were returned from the State Department endorsed too late. It would seem, therefore, that pardons previous to conviction will be discontinued for tho present. The President to-morrow gives a dinner to thc Cabinet and the lhdiea of their houses. WASHINGTON, January 9.-The Radio als seem con' rident of seating tho Senators from Nebraska and Colorado wiUuS a .few days.

WASHINGTON, January 9.-General Grant's r?cep? tion was attended by the entire city. There was an immense jam.

WASHINGTON, January 9_The Republican of this morning publishes the following: "WASHINGTON. D. C., January 9. 1865.-His Ex? cellency Andrew Johnson: liv dear Go vernor I cannot too heartily thank you for vour lotter dated Nashville, December 30, 1804, received on Wednesday evening. There is not a word or sen? tence in the article from tho Nashville Times, which you inclose, that docs not meet mv warm? est approbation. I have read and reread all vour ietter, and I havo shown both to several intimate friends. I hope soon to be able to endorse both in my two newspapers, the Chronicle and tho Press. After a pretty thorough canvass, I think the Sen? ators and Repr?sentatives from Louisiana will b-? admitted; and if this is so, it is easy to anticipate that those of Tennessee voil nlso be roceived. The only person that I have found opposed to your theory, and who is now hesitating as to the true course to bo pursued in roferonco to the admission of Louisiana, is Mr. Sumner, of Massachusetts. Ho may probably be followed by Wade, Atchinson, Ohahdler, and a few more, but Senator Wilson, of Massachusetts, is opon and determined in his conree, and I think ho will carrv with Rim a good number. "The attempt to embarrass tho admission of States, as Tcnnossee, aft;r having gone through such sufferings an yours, and having reorganized their Stato from the very foundation of principle and law, would bc a sad* proceeding. Tho fact is. my dear Governor, wc cannot resist peace should the Southern people lay down their arms and de? mand to come back into "the Union undor tho terms of tho Amnesty Proclamation, agreeing to the abolition of slavery by the amendment to the Con? stitution and consenting to the restoration of thc old Union. Any party that opposes such an ap? peal will surely como tb'confusion; nor can we at? tempt to embarrass such questions as those pre? sented in the case of Louisiana and Tennessee by legislation on the subject" of negro suffrage, bo causo that question belongs to the Stales, and it will look very odd if the legislators from the free States should cncloavor to confer tho right of svtfirago upon illiterate negroes, just dofivored from slavery in tho South, when in nearly all the free States tho negroes are nearly whollv disfran? chised. I feel in high hope that the courso of the people of Savannah, which you have by this time seen, coming forwaid voluntarily and partlv-agree ing to the terms offered by tho Government, will be followed in other quarters, and that we are, in fact, about to realizo tho beginning of tho end of the rebellion.

This title might seem to be a misnomer for a company whose lines aro to bo wholly in China, but they con "sue or be sued" under no other. Tho act of Incorporation waa passed Apriljt?, 1864. The object of the company is to build a; telegraph between Pekin and Canton. The importance of the enterprise will be understood by a glance at the map. The Collina' or Russian-American Telegraph Company have already pushed their line tc a point but eight hundred and fifty miles from Felon, so that telegraphic connection between that city, San Francisco and New York may be looked upon as nearly an accomplished fact. " 0n_ tho other hand, tho London and Calcutta line is now completed and in operation. Negotiations aro in progress for tho extension of this lineto Canton. Regard? ing tho commercial and political interests involved, there can be no doubt that, sooner or later, this will be done. There will then remain in the tele? graphic belt encircling tho world a gap of one thousand four hundred and thirty-five miles, the distance between Pekin and Canton, which this ! company proposo to fifi. They have'had to en- ! counter a gravo difficulty at the very outstart, in the superstition of the Chinese Government and, people. .... . It is commonly thought that the poles and wires of tho land telegraph would disturb the equable flow of good lnck through tho Empire. The nois? ed extorts of tho diplomatic corps at Petrin havo only so far succeeded in obtaining permission for the company to lay submarine wires between the seaport cities. The comoany, however-haye the active good will of the Chinese in San Francisco, and the efficient services of an able resident agent, Dr. McGowan, who is thoroughly acquainted with the Chinese language and oharaoter; and it is be? lieved that the requisite concessions will be ob? tained at an early day. Tho immenso size, wealth and commerce of the Chinese Empire, ore eo well known that comment upon the importance of this enterprise is quito unnecessary. Apart from its commercial advantages, it will furnish, in counec . tion with tho line from Calcutta to Canton, over? land telegraphic communication between Europe and this country. A difficulty may have suggest? ed itself to some readers in the peculiar nature of the Chinese language, which would seem too com? plex and cumbrous io be reduced to any systemof t?l?graphie svmbols. Thia crUncrdty, however, Dr. Mocgowan has ingeniously overcome by tho inven? tion of an adequate, system, con'aining fewer signs than are required by the alphabetic languages of Europe. Is Colin County, Texas "pork sells for six cents a pound; butter at twelve and a half conte; eggs at ten cents a dozen; wheat one dollar a bushel, and flour four dollars a hundred weight. Corn is rat? tled off at fifty ?ente a bushel. Those rates are for specie. In that portion of Texas ono dollar of United States papor- enrrency is worth only two thirds of a silver dollar. In Rusk County mast fed pork readily brings six cents, corn fed seven cents. There is an. abundant supply .of food in that region, particularly of bog and hominy. East Texas is unquestionably one of the best countries in tho world for raising pork... A fire occurred in the Crystal Palace building. Sydenham, England, on the 80th of December, and was only extinguished the following afternoon, after the section appropriated to Eastern products had been destroyed, and property to the value of a million and a half of dollars lost. At one time it was feared that tho great ? 'World's Fair" emporium of England, which has commanded such attention from the nations and peoples since the dato of its opening onr tb* first of May, 1851, would bo com? pletely destroj-ed. . The Street Railway ffsHBHBlghts. Mr. Editor: Tho only objoctioWthat we havo ever heard urgod against this measure, was as to its effect on a particular class of hard-working cit? izens who earn their bread by cartage. Now, we venture the opinion that this particular I class will be certainly bencfittod, bocause there is almost a certainty that a largely increased brini? ness will como hero, hy the convenience affordod j to original shippers, thus multiplying tho local [ work bot ween local points in the city. Wo illustrate by pointing to tho Street Railway Company. Two months ago, Mr. Jackson had four omnibuses running for passengers, four drivers wero employed, with proportionate teams. Now, tho same sized community has in service eioAf roomy street cars, trigla drivers aro employed, eight conductors bosides earn their support, and in less than a short month it is found necessary to order four additional cars. When theseare'run? ning, which will bo in a few days, where four of our pooplo got employment, twenty-four will bo at work. We make this statement to show that tho work? ing man need nover fear any innovation which tends to multiply business or increase public con? venience. The illustrations on this point could bo multi? plied, bu1 this will suffice. EAST BAT. The A'CWB as a Text Boole. " ' An old and honored friend, a teacher by instinct, choice and profession,-a pedagogue of long ex? perience,-ono who has road deeply in tho boo': of human nature,-recently wrote us a privato letter, in tho course of whioh he gives us tho following bit of school-room experience, which, in justice to ourselves and to our readers, wo must publish, * even at tho hazard of incurring his displeasure. Ho says : "There is one use of a daily paper j which I have long appreciated, and never more than just now in the case of THE NEWS. I mean its adaptation to the schoolroom. I really owe you all, editors, printers, and all, a vote of thanks for tho good my boys have gained from your paper. 11 t?ko a copy with me regularly to the school-room, and find it a manifold text-book, or rather cyclo? pedia of text-books. If my boys know anything of geography, they owe it to THE NEWS, rather than to MITCHELL and CORNELL. Your list of cable dis? patches and your review of the markets furnish a daily losson, fresh and warm from" tho living world. We made the tour of Germany this ses? sion cheaply and profitably, thanks to G. W. W., whoso instructive letters were listened to with growing interest, as we followed the happy trael lor from city to oity on our maps. "But not geography alone do we find thore, but a daily paper toaches ovory subject that comes up. When tho 'big boys' came up with 'per centage,' 'commission,' 'custom house,' etc., as an arithme? tic lesson, they were surprised to find examples and illustrations drawn from the newspaper; and the young beginner in geometry hod to calculate the town lots, which aro described and advertised for salo. Many a time an example from Insur? ance,' 'exchango,' etc., has come in so exactly, that the boys havo begun to suspect that I had some? thing to do with 'putting all these things into that ?vondorful papor.' "And then, additional to, and separate from all -hese distinct kinds of information, is tho general iwakoning of mind, which is worth all the infor nation that can bo poured nto young minds. AU .his and more wo have found in your sheet; and I lave sometimos thought of trying to draw the at? tention of teachers to this means of instruction, vith a view of inducing them to add a daily paper ' 0 the apparatus of the school-room, but I have j 1 lover done it." Our friend has "done it" now, however, and we col assured that the entire of the honorable guild if pedagogues will thank him for his valuable sug? gestion. . ". . , ,. .. How can a teacher desire a moro suggestive ext than the latest news ? Tho "living present" ios claims superior to all the ages of antiquity, ind speaks in clear intelligible tones, striking a :hord of sympathy in tho heart of every boy. None )f our friend's numerous pupils will over forget he broad range his "school talks" used to take, ind what a vast amount of useful and practical in? formation was brought home to them on those occasions. w~ ..I,.,.,Ll kn tn aaa thia -r.1?.. ~UW~_Jt ntroducod, and let the morning paper be assigned 1 regular place in the curriculum. The judicious ?acher will find no difficulty in turning this hint X) profitable account. Address ol' the Representatives of Texas. An appeal to the Congress and people of the United States ' by the Representativos elect of 1 Texas, is published in the Washington Intelligencer, at Monday. The address is .-signed by Senators ROBERTS and BURNETT, and Representatives EP? PERSON, BRANOH and CHILTON. The address brief? ly sketches the formation of the Republic of Texas and its incorporation into the Union. The subee- i 3uent secession was due, in the main, to conflict? ing interpretations of the Constitution, one class iffirming that the General Government was the creation of the States, any one of which could withdraw its assent from a Government no longer acceptable; the other declaring it was the act of I the people of the United States, from which ' no section or community could withdraw. It is claimed that the weaker porty sought to "withdraw from tho Union "not .to prevent ! tho Northern States.from retaining their govern? ment over themselves with their own construction, but to insure its preservation as to the Southern States as they understood it," In the warlike struggle which ensued, the South was overcome, and the address gives the history of tho Presi? dent's efforts at reconstruction, ana forcibly says: "The laws of tho United States aro being executed within its limits without hindrance or resistance from tho people or thc State authorities; the Fede? ral army is on our frontier for protection; the Federal judiciary are performing their functions^ the United States mails are being carried all over I the State; the navy is protecting our commerce; : the officers of customs and internal revenue are doing their duty, and the people are paying duties and taxes as in other States. What more could be said of tho people of New York and Ohio-except that they have their Senators ard Representatives in Congress to speak for and represent the rights, interests and necessities of their States. The impolicy of imposing disabilities on the Southerners is forcibly argued in the standing warning of Ireland quoted. The address concludes as follows : . If the restoration were now complete, the test oatn repealed, or stowed away with the relics of the war, universal amnesty proclaimed, what joy would there be in thia lanai It would be Uko the j sun bursting suddenly from the clouds after many | days of gloom and darkness. Then, indeed, a day 1 of national thanksgiviug might well be proclaimed. Then would the whole .people, in every Dart of this broad lind, and those now in exile' and in foreign climes, who are Americans in heart, go into the. ; temple of the living God and. offer up heartfelt thanks for tho restoration of kindly feeling and I brotherly loreto a united nation of freemen - I united not merely in name, but in toot-who have been divided anet at war with each other, but are BO no longer. Then would a people, united truly and in fact, pour ont upon bended knees the.overflow ing gratitude of pure hearts, unsullied by theTe membrance of past bitterness, to the God of their fathers, for the blessed happiness afforded by mu? tual forgiveness, good feeling and esteem. ? MANUFACTURING IN THE SOUTH AH? WEST. Among the changes whioh are-likely to result from the late conflict between the North and tba South, those of a commercial and manufacturing. character promise to be the moat conspicuous. Before the war, the natural course.of business was to send cotton from the South to the North? ern Atlantic cities for the purpose of being 1 manufactured or reshipped to Europe, receiving in return such goods as the planting States con? sumed. Now the tendenoy is to localize the' business of the South-to produce there, as far 1 as possibb, the manufactured goods required, for home consumption. Meanwhile, the natural ! effect is for a larger proportion of Southern pro? ducts to find a market at Baltimore than ever before, and thia will probably continue to be the case. With the growth Of manufactures in the South, the advantages of cheapness, resulting from having tho raw product on the' spot, will be realized, and eventually nho may undersell others, and sena her surplus direct to such, foreign mar? kets as are in need of them. As a symptom of thia introversion of trade, it may bo noted that be? tween seventy and eighty cotton mills are now said to be in process of erection in the Southern States, besides sundry woollen ones, all tending to the change in. trade and business to-whicn we have adverted. Nor is this tendency confined to tho South solely, but seoras to be actuating the people of the Western States also. There, too, in? creased attention to manufacturing enterprises is manifested, promising changes in commercial af? fairs not anticipated ten years since. These have been expedited iii the South by the late conflict in arms; whilo in the. West they are the result of views antagonistic to those entertained by the manufacturers of tho Atlantic States. .... {Baltimore Sun. - REPEAL OJ THE USUHT LAWB OT Soin? CABO?

THURSDAY ^MORNINGr, State Items. OUTRAGE.-Wo regret to bare to chronicle such an outrage as tbe following, which we clip from the Edgefleld Advertiser :. On Christmas Eve night, about tho rising of the moon, a band of seven or eight men rode up to the door of Mr. James McCarty, an old mae living on the Columbia road, about fourteen miles from this place. Three of them dismormied, entered tho nous?, represented themselves as "Yankoos," de? manded Mr. McCarty's keys, forced thom -from him, unlocked a small iron safo, io which ho kopt his money and papers, and -took from it $1016 m told, $130 odd ul silver, $150 in greenbacks, r.nd 10,000 worth of notes ond accounts. They then left, the house and rejoined,(hoir comrades at tho Kate, taking with thom the said money and papers. Thoy took with them alsoMr. McCarty's shot gun, already loaded Mr. McCarty and his wife follow? ed them into tho piazza, and, as they made roady to ride, off, denounced them. At this .the old man's own gun was fired at bim. Ho received in one leg some thirty or forty squirrel shot. Mrs 'Mc- I Carty was also painfully wounded in the thigh, ono large ball, apparently from arovolver, passing entirely through tho leg. After this the despera? does rode oil with their booty. Luaus NATUBK.-We bad the pleasure a few days aso of examining at the office of Dr. Elliott one" of the rarest and most astonishing freaks of na? ture ever before seen. It Was the twin offspring ot a colored woman of this prace^still-born. The twins are j oinod together from the side of tho face down to the stomach, having all the parts of each perfectly formed. Dr. E. tolls us that he bas never known anything like it, although he bas seen many kinds of deformity in children. This speci? men ho intends presenting to the Medical College of Charleston, for the benefit and wonder of the youthful sprigs of medicine.-Georgetown Times. Warren D.

LOCH, of Columbia, made ber first appearance this season in the Italian Opera, in Kew York, on Mon? day. She sang the soprano part in VEHD?S "Bailo in Maschera," and made a very agreeable impres? sion. We append the critical remarks of the World, as of interest to the fellow-townspeople of the fair prima donna: Of course, the main interest of the evening cen? tered upon Miss Mcculloch, and it is pleasant to be able to say that this young lady achieved a posi? tive success with on audience which included | many of the most accomplished musicians, both ''professionals" and "amateurs," of New York. Miss Mcculloch's voice ia of a pure and excellent quality, and ber style, which is essentially modern, ats her peculiarly for executing tbe muslo of that, it presont, most popular Maestri, Signor Verdi. 8he gave proof lost night, too, of a degree of dra? matic feeling and taste, which, with an enlarged sxperienco of the stage, cannot fail to put ber high m the roll of strictly operatic, as distinguished ?rom purely lyric singers. MKLANC?IOLT ACCIDENT.-We are pained to learn of a sod accident which occurred to Walter 5. Mitchell, son of our \follow-townsman, Mr. H. Mitchell. Young M. had gone into the country, lome sixteen miles, to a party at Mr. Samuel Smith's, near limestone Springs, on Saturday ?voning last. As he was returning on Sunday norning, h:j3 horse's feet became clogged, and dipping into a gully the horse fell with bim and ipon bis right leg, shattering it above the ankle. [Spar?anouro- Express. FOBNEY AGAIN UKGES MOB VIOLENCE.-FOBNEY s attempting to incite mob violence against the termer Confederate soldiers whom business may iraw to Washington. He had better tackle ono of | bern himself. Tbe writer Bays : Our readers have probably observed upon the itreets and at public resorts, numbers of persons vealing gray clothing, manufactured of gray Jo th of the description used for rebel uniforms luring the war. Some of those gentry have lot even discarded thc rebel buttons, but ap? pear in suits which, while the war was in pro? gress, would speedily have drawn forth a Union Bullet. Tho charitable supposition of a year igo, that the wearers, through the pecuniary losses incident to the destruction of their prop srty and currency, were unable to purchase zither clothing, is certainly inappropriate-.at the j present dny, and no reason can now be ascribed | ither than a lingering love for the color in which they and their traitor brethren were arrayed when soaking to destroy our National Government. The \ aS?fia^tiri^Jit Jrle^-l?JSSS?..ftn4 wwr?ai?jy.jiud people,, give countenance to this belief?"-In the I breast of every true and loyal man tile sight of a reconstructed rebel fans to a flame the old feeling of hatred, and an ex-soldier, upon beholding the hated color which recalls to mind sufferings in the prison hells of Andersonville, Belle Isle, Libby and Salisbury, must instinctively fool a strong de? sire to wreak summary vengeance upon one, at least, of.the inhuman fiends by whom be was sub? jected to starvation, exposure, and almost death. BISHOPS OF THE UNITED STATES.-There have been, in the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States, eighty-two Bishops; of whom forty three survive. This includes the Foreign Mission? ary Bishops. In order of seniority Bishop Elliott iras seventh on the list cf Bishops living, and thirty-seventh on the roll of the American Church. Se waa consecrated February 28,1811, in Christ Church, Savannah, by Bishop Meade, Bishop [ves and Bishop Gadsden. He was tbe senior" Bishop in tbe Confederacy after the death of Bishop Meade, Bishop Otey and Bishop Polk. - Six of the Southern Bishops have died within the last six years, viz : Bishop Cobb, of Alabama, January, 1861. Bishop Meade, of Virginia, March, 1862. Bishop Otey, of Tennessee, April, 1863. Bishop Polk, of Louisiana, June, 1861. Bishop Rutledge, of Florida, November, 1866. Bishop Elliott, of Georgia, December, 1866. Six Northern Bishops and one Foreign Mission? ary Bishop have died within tho same time. TBS Cincinnati Enquirer, of Thursday, contains an important announcement from Washington : I learn from a reliable source that the Hon. Mr. Morris, formerly a member of Congress from Uli-, uois, and other prominent Conservatives of that'' State, intend to meet to-morrow night at Spring? field for the purpose of considering a proposition to nominate General Grant for tho next President. Same of the parties intend to urge the proposed Constitutional Amendment as part of the platform in this movement, but this proposition ia not likely to meet with unanimous favor. Leading Demo? crats of other States have been invited to join the. Blinoisians in their meeting. ' If GRANT will consent to commit himself to the Conservative policy, there can be no reasonable doubt as to bis success in 1868; and the consequent annihilation of the Radical party. FBOK KENTUCKY.-Governor Bramlette, in bis message- to the Kentucky Legislature (January 4th), takes strong ground against tho proposed Oonatitutionai Amendment. The Governor argues that two-thirds of a quorum does not constitute two-thirds of the members chosen. He, there? fore, does not consider that the amendment is presented to the Legislature in the mantinr pre? scribed by the Constitution. He says : "Enter? taining this view of tbe constitutional powers of tile Congress to propose amendments, the amend- ! ment submitted to your consideration is not re? garded as coming with the sanction of the Consti? tution, and therefore should be rejected. I will only say that, were the provisions as acceptable as they are objectionable, the fact that they are not Sreposed in conformity with the requirements of ie Constitution would bo sufficient to ; compel i their rejection, and more especially so when they are held out as a condition precedent to admitting rights already secured by the existing Constitu? tion." - - . RETTJBNING FBGM MEXICO. -Gen. Sterling Price arrived a few days aso in New Orleans, from Mexico, where he has been since the close of the war. He was very cordiallx.received. The hotels were thrown open to him, important positions .sera tendered him, and a tract o? ?and containing six hundred acres, in Taxas, was presented to him. -He was also offered his choice of the river steamers to convoy "him and hiB family up tho Missouri- ' General J.

A brig, called the Jacmel Packet, entered the port of Aap in wall a few days ago, and was seized by United ?States Consul Rico under suspicious circumstances. ./The vessel sailed some months ago from Singapore under a charter for Melbourne, Australia, wiirra cargo of spices, Ac, but ran out of her legitimate voyage rounded the Cape of Good Hope, put into two or three ports on tho way, and finally brought up in Asp in wall for re? pairs and supplies to continue her voyage On ar? rival, tho captain and owner, John A. Hawes, tried to dispose of his cargo for half its value, but Con? sul Bice, suspecting him to bo a runaway, stopped the trade, and with the aid of Lloyd's agent, Mr. Cowan, succeeded in procuring all her papers, and proved a plain case of barratry against tho cap? tain. A guard from the United States ship Macki? naw was then placed on board of hor by tho Con? sul, who will Bend her to Now York, consigned to the Collector of Customs. Tho Jacmel Packet was originally an American vessel. She afterwards changed to British, and by the aid of tho United States Consul at Singapore was enabled to procuro an American flag, under whioh she came to Aspin wall. THE FREEDMEN.-General Howard and suite, of the Freedmen's Bureau, arrived in this city on Saturday, and since that time have been visiting tho colored population and examining into their condition. Last night the freedmen turned out in large numbers, with ..torches, banners, transpa? rencies, etc., and escorted tho General and porty to the African Church, where sovoral addresses wero delivered. General Howard advised them to remain where- they were; that inducements were hold out to them to emigrate tri other States, bot that removals wore always troublesome, and often very far from advantageous. He advised them to be industrious and abide by their contracts; im? pressed upon them Unimportance of education, stating that throughout the Southern States there were now over 150,000 colored children being edu? cated, and concluded his remarks with certain patriotic expressions, which created considerable feeling among the dusky auditory.-Columbia Pluznix.
