By M. A. C. author of "The Little Episcopalian," "Bessie Melville,' etc. Philadelphia : J. B. Lippincott & Co., 1867. M. A. C., we learn, is M?SB MAST ASK CHOSE, of Huntsville, Ala., and "Cameron Hall" is tho first of her books we have seen; and although the title of the work-"A Story of the Civil War"-usually prevents any farther reading of a book on our part, we in this instance, by an effort, overcame the repugnance, and faithfully and conscientiously read the whole 543 pages of "Cameron Hall." Our objection to novels founded on the facts connected with the civil war, ate the same we should have to romances on any other cotemporary historical event. The scenes, events, and characters of the story aro all too fresh in our memories. Every statement is instinctively measured by tho truth of history; and not only this, but by our individual viow of such truth. There is an intuitive running criticism in tho mind of the reader, fatal to all en enjoyment of the story. . No man is a hero to his valet de chambre. Familiarity must ever remain antagonistic to all attempts at romance. The child's fancy delights in picturing a world of prin cos, palaces, fairies e.r. i genii. Wo are aware that thc daring and sacrilegious utilitarianism of the day hos invaded this domain also; and JACOB ABBOTT has written, and the HARPERS have pub? lished, some six or seven dozen of Rollo Books, Beechnut Stories, etc.,-the most dreary and unat? tractive children's books over known; full of preachments, short stories and long morals. We think, however, we can safely predict a short? lived immortality for the whole tribe or them. In reading novels big folks a- e children, and pre? fer the great, the lofty, tho unattainable, the vague and mysterious, even if exaggerated, to a moro common place narration of thc incidents of every dry life around them. Sir WALTEB SCOTT well un? derstood this idiosyncracy and profited by it. "St. Bonan's Well," perhaps the best of his co temporary novels, can only bear comparison with his historical romances, becauso the hand of tho same transcendent genius traced tho picture. DICKENS succeeds in treating such subjects be? cause of his humour, his knowledge of humaa characters and unporalelled descriptive powers. THACKERAY deli ghted a select audienco, ' 'fit though few," by his trenchant satire and inimitable sketches of socloty. But neither of thests great masters, we think, would have ventured, so soon after the event, on a description in narrative fic? tion of the scenes and incidents of a civil war, all the occurrences connected with which perfectly familiar to every one of his readors. It is too soon to treat the subject from au ideal point of view, and realism, for the reasons above given, is fatal to it as a work of art. There aro great masters of painting in both schools; but to entitle a picture to admiration, true and lasting, it must show something more than the hare realism of the Pre-Raphaelites, which finds nothing bizarre in the cobbler's judg? ment, whose acumen exhausted itself in tho crit? ical examination of the Papal shoe. A tree, a mountain, figures of animals, and the human face divine, all are susceptible of a variety o' treatment in both styles. ROSA BONHEBB will paint you a horse, or a dog, or the highland heather, true to nature and to life, while Sir EDWIN LANDSEER'S in? terpretation of the same themes, equally true to life, are yet highly idealized. But what is in itself commonplace, cannot be rendered poetic or beau? tiful. A mathematically correct drawing of a house, a wall, a locomotive or a sewing machine, arc not without their merit, and may be isometrically beautiful, but they are by common consent ban? ished from the domain of the fine arts. So is it-certainly should be-in the field of literature. The characters of a novel may be very true lo nature, and yet bo intolerable. Is it not enough that we must endure stupidity in our daily intercourse with men and women? Are we prepar? ed to have all this ineptitude phonographed, and then be compelled to read it ? The more faithfully such characters are drawn-the more life-like the conversation-the worse the book. No amount of unexceptionable morality, virtuous example, and poetic justice, can compensate for this, oven though it be all written in excellent English. But if to these drawbacks is superadded, as is not unfrequently the case, a total want of invention, and the hook is unredeemed by aught that could relieve the dull monotony of proverbial platitudes, then we have the perfection of the modern moral and religious novel-"The Wide,. Wide Worlds," '.'Queechys," Atc. . To show how difficult a task it is at this time to write either a fair history of the civil war, or a novel bearing upon it, we will mention the case of MARION HARLAND, who recently made the essay in her "Sherbrooke." Herself a "Virginian born, but a resident of New Jersey, she was condemned by the Southern press for viewing everything from a Yankee stand point, and by the Northern papers because of her partiality for "rebels." We do not wish to be understood as applying any of the foregoing remarks specially to "Came? ron Hall" We have spoken of the characteristics of the genus, and as belonging to that genus, the book before us must be considered open to the same objections. The onus probandi ia with it; and we are happy to say a deal of very good proof has been submitted showing cause why this pres? ent book should be acquitted from the severe charges under which it has been brought into court. The language' is good, style simple and pleasing, and there is an abundance of mystery. We have two or three secrets running all through the story. The idea of the blind girl Agnes and her sayings and doings is not altogether original; rathor a .favorite theme of late years with lady novelists. Uncle John is a sort of Squire All worthy, only found in romances. There is, how? ever, too much talk. The conversations are many, very long, and often pointless. A deep religious tone pervades the whole work; and although there is a total absence of anything like wit or humor, "Cameron Hall" is, nevertheless, a very interest? ing story, and will be read with pleasure as well as benefit by the average class of novel readers. ANDREW JOHNSON IS READX PCB TRIAL.-The Washington Republican, the special organ of Presi? dent JOHNSON, in its issue of Tuesday, says : A member of the United States House of Repre? sentatives, who, a few years since,'was charged with corruptly using his office as a member of che Committee on Territories, arose in his place yes? terday and presented ''articles of impeachment" against Andrew Johnson, President of the United States, for corruptly using his office. It appears by our report that the Committee on tho Judiciary is "authorized" to investigate the subject 1 Whv did not this Territorial Surveyor-General Ashley, who offered this bill of indictment against Mr. Johnson, provide that the Committee should bo inatruoted, a term usually employed by honest men engaged in a work of Christian patriotism, and not use the weak, unmeaning word "author? ized," which, to a Congressional Committee, is inst what they may choose to interpret it ? Lotus tave no mockery 1 If Congress means to enter upon the grave work of impeachment, let the trial progress with some degree of respectability and dignity, and then the people will understand that their representatives are in earnest. If Congress does pot mean impeachment, but is engaged in a work of buncombe, announce the fact, and no longer paralyze the whole business of the country. Andrew Johnson is ready for trial. CHARXiESTOlSr, S. C., The French Exposition. Lord DEBUT, in an after-dinner speech, published in THE NEWS a few weeks ago, alluding to the Paris Exposition of 18C7, jocnlarly remarked that an invasion is on foot against tho French Capital, but contrary to the usual custom, in this instance the invaded will levy on tho invaders for the costs of tho expedition. La Pairie, a journal published in Paris, takes ombrage at this jeu d'esprit, and says that Lord DEBBY, in saving this, doubtless had in his mind tho unchristian exactions made by the people of London during the great Exhibition of 1851. It then goes on to say, at some length and with considerable apparent resentment, that the Parisians would be actuated by a different spirit, and that no such forced contributions are to bo apprehended on the part of the foreign visitors. We suspect, however, that the remarks of La Pairie aro intended more for the benefit of the Parisians tb an as a rebuke to Lord DEBBY. Under the guise of a protest, it lectures them, showing what is expected of them, and what is to their true interest. Pru salon Prize Money. WrxxiAK, by the grace of God, King of Prussia, m the lGth of November last, decreed that, with he consent of the two Chambers of the Diot, the lum of one million and a half of thalers, to.be de? frayed from the contributions from the several conquered territories, shall bo donated to the shiels of the Prussian army, who have contributed JO any remarkable degree to the brilliant resolte )f the late war. The Nord Deutsche Zeitung says hat public opinion generally approved of this idiot. The French press is very severe on this ii odom money reward for valor, and denounces it is a direct incitement to plunder. They say that Then NAPOLEON parcelled out (he kingdoms of Europe among his generals and the members of lis family, it proved more a source of weakness han of strength to him. j passage of the District 'jnflkmge Bill over thc veto-Scene in. tho Senate-Ashley's Impeachment Resolution. We moke the following extracts from the Bal imore Hun's Washington correspondence of Mon tay : The Senate galleries were not more than half j Hied at the opening of tho session to-day, not? withstanding it was well known that the President fould send in to that body his veto of the negro rnfirage bill for the District of Colombia. The President's son and private secretary, Colonel Robert Johnson, appeared a few minutes before me o'clock and announced the document. The norning hoar exoiring almost immediately there? after, Vice-President Foster ordered tho message o be read, without waiting for any motion on the mbject. It was thou read by the Secretary of the Senate, Colonel John W. Forney, amid perfect ilence, tho Senators having been simultaneously uppliod with printed copies. The reading occupied thirty-five minutes, when [ebate was opened by Mr. Morrill sa Chairman of he District Committee and father of the Bill. Iis remarks were brief, consisting in mero denials if the positions assumed by the President. In a hort time the galleries were largely reinforced, nd much interest was manifested in the debate, t was noticeable that not over half a dozen blacks rere present. Hr. Sherman followed Mr. Morrill, nd announced his readiness to toko op cse garant? ?t thrown down by tho Democratic party in Ohio, nd to fly the banner of uni vet sal suffrage. The debate which followed was animated by ?lessrs. Cowan and Wilhams, the latter in favor of nfranchising tho negroes, though in the Conven ion to form a State Constitution ?or Oregon he oted against colored suffrage, when there were trobably not a dozen negroes in the Territory. lr. Sainsbury frequently pressed Mr. Williams nth pointed questions until he declined to answer. Ir. Johnson, of Maryland, also spoke at some angth against the measure, and the debate was oncludou by Mr. Doolittle, when the question was mt, twenty-nine votes being recorded m the affirm tive and ten in the negative, thirteen Senators icing absent. ?he chair announced tho passage of the bill .mid profound silence, when the crowded galleries ap idly dispersod without tho slighest manifesta ion of feeling. The impeachment resolution of Mr. Ashley, if li vested of tho importance that has boen given it >y tel-grains sent off by excited correspondents railst tho mattor was under consideration in the man */w1"p. -J--*? ?-.J l.l.l..0 "u.U an a simple resolution authorizing, not directing, he Judiciary Commitee to investigate the general iharges made by Mr. Ashley, and the vote, when indorstood, does not indicate that the House will mstain the charges. Many of those who voted for ho resolution did so to get it out of the way or tito tho hands of tho committee, where it is be reved the thing will die ont for want of proof to sustain the charges of commission of high crimes ind misdemeanors, as those terms are defined by aw and understood by jurists. No one has yet named a singla case in which the groofs are of the character to sustain the legol.in ierpretation of the terms above mentioned. The Luthor of the resolution is not regarded as a law? ler, and I believe does not profess to be one, and ns cases suggested to sustain tho charges merely unbraces acts of a political or partisan character, lot criminal in the legal sense. Georgia. Items. A CHABTEB VETOED.-The Macon Telegraph .carns privately that Governor Jookins has vetoed he bill passed near the close of the session to ?barter the New Orleans. Mobile and Chattanooga Railroad. The Telegraph learns the ground of oo oction to be, "that it confers an extent of power md privilege dangerous to railroad interests gene? rally, and especially to the Westarn and Atlantic Railroad-in fact, that it would be equivalent to admitting the new company as partners with the State in a considerable portion of that important work." Wo have not noticed allusion to the sub? ject in any paper but our Macon contemporary. A negro named Beeman Calla way was killed near Washington on Friday night last. It is supposed hat the deed was prompted by jealousy, as de? based was a "gay deceiver" among the females of lis own color. An affray occurred at Woodstock, Oglethorpe County, on Wednesday of last week, between Tames Glonn and E. F. Daniel, in whioh the latter EVOS killed by being struck over the head with a stick in the hands of the former. Both were*yoang nen of most respectable families, and the occur? rence will cause great grief to a large connexion. Mrs. Kendal!, wife of Mr. Be ?ben Kendall, of Wilkes County, committed suicide, on Monday of last week, by taking strychnine while laboring ander mental derangement. The Cuthbert Appeal says: "We do not think there can be found on the globe a place where there is as much whisney drank, and as many peo? ple gather, and where there is as little gambling ind fighting os in Cuthbert, and where tho people }f all classes are more respectful to each other." We leam from the Atlanta Intelligencer that for savors! days past large numbers of moles have been received m that city, coming from the blue grass region of Kentucky. These animals, whioh ire reported to be fine ones, are mostly destined for tho fine cotton regions of Southwestern Geor? gia, thongh many were taken np by citizens of Atlanta, while on their way. - Mr. John Bice, President of the Chattanooga Na? tional Bank cf Columbas, has been torced to re? sign that position on account of Ul health From December 1st, 1865, to December Slot, 1866, there was, - in Columbas, hat one fire and sight alarms of tire. Amount of property de? stroyed $18,000; covered by insurance $1?300. At Colombia, on Tuesday, there were sold at auction 15 shares of Georgia Home Insurance at $29.50 per share. Henry G winn, a colored man, well spoken of, lectured in Savannah, Thursday evening. Subject: Labor-morally, mentally and physically consid? ered. The lecturer's object is to impress upon his race the necessity of industry and good faith in their contracts as laborers. Bight Rev. Bishop mimer, of Alabama, will, Deo volente, be ic Savannah the last Sabbath in this month to preach a sermon commemorative of the life and services of the late Bishop Elliott. Mr. D. H. Hill, a worthy oi trisen cf Sumter coun? ty, committed suicido on Chrirtmos day, by shoot? ing himself in the mouth, il* tutd for some time past been Buffering from ill health. Major Mosebaek, Bureau Agent for the Columbus District, hos issued an order that the regulations of last year, requiring contracta to be made with freedmen through tho Bureau, are still in force, and freedmen hired without Bach contracts are ai liberty to leave their employers at any time. Should any difficulty arise about compensation, while hired without a contract, employers will be required to pay the highest wages that are paid in their vicinage. The Enquirer protests against the order as an unauthorized assumption of power, since civil law is restored. The Oglethorpe Fire Company, of Savannah, are about to receive a new Steam Engine of Poole & Hunt's manufacture, Baltimore. CHANT APPROVES THE VETO.-A Washington let? ter says: "The President's message vetoing the District Suffrage Bill was read in Cabinet session on tho afternoon of that day. I now learn that General Grant was, by invitation, present daring the reading of the document, and that he folly and ? unequivocally approved the message, as also the members of thc Cabinet, except Mr. Stanton, who read a short opinion, taking the ground that the Bill was constitutional, and advising the President' to approve it." MIGRATION OP AFBIOANS.-This seems to'have increased within the ?vaat week. Every cay wit? nesses a group of one hundred or more assembled at the car-shed a tri ting shipment to the West. Their condition, in many instances, ie pitiable. Seduced from comfortable homes by fair promises, we fear that tho Elysium they hope to reach wilt vanish as the mirage does before the eager gaze of the desert traveller. Bot "thou art freedom's now, and fame's." swarthy men of Ham-continue thy peregrinations westward. THE following is given as the statistics of the Protestant Episcopal Church- in this country : Whola number of parishes, 2306: number of clergy, 2 KV) ; t. til inember?vip, 161,225 ; contributions for tho past year, $3,951,667. SATURDAY MORNING-, The Historical Seven. A Northern paper, of a lato date, romrsajs ns of the canons fact, that almost ovory decade in the history of this country, ending with tho figaro seven, has marked tho beginning ol a, financial crabb, or severe depression. It says: Historio fatalism, if not actual signs of the times, incline many to the belief that 1867 is to be added to the periods in our p&cit history, made memorable by financial troubles. With 1797 came the crash that wiped out tho Continental currency, and in 1807 our troubles with Franco and prospective war with England, throw the business of the country into confusion, while in 1817 we got the legacy of tho war of 1812-14 with England, which was a tremendous financial revulsion. That of 1827 was loss se? vere, but ten years later, it came in good earnest-the smash of ail previous smashes, in whioh the whole banking system and buRir.ess of the country went down, not to rise for no ai ly fivo years. If for nothing else, Gon. Jackson and his successor will bo remembered for their reckless? ness in smanhing np the currency to gratify por sonal and political spite. King Hudson reigned over the English railroad speculations of 1847, and famine stalked over Europe, and especially in Ire? land, spreading Buffering and causing wide-spread failures. A purely commercial snap emphasized 1857, caused by inflation and overtrading. But tho crash of 1867, if one is inevitable, which we neither proclaim nor admit, will be " Pelion apon Ossa." indeed.' The chasm is too deep and dark to think of, much less to look into. Let us hope the rather, that by rigid economy among con? sumers, the present heavy balance against us on the year's foreign trade may be made up, that favoring skies will bring ns abundant crops, and the hands of producers be multiplied rapidly ail over the land, so that the present heavy burden of taxation can be borne; that Congress will be suc? cessful in so adjusting the correr.cy and imposts, that the year 1867 may be securely tided over, and our domestic comfort and foreign obligations be securely and honorably provided for. HORSE TH I KV ABBEBTED.-A young man, who calls himself L. Spell, of Sampson County, N. C., was arrested in this city last night on a charge of stealing a horse from a Mr. Carter, of this county, and was committed to await his trial at tho next term of our County Court. Tho young man came to the Mansion Hotel, in this place, on tho night of the Slat of December, and registered his name as above. On the first day of January, under the name of James Lewis, he hired himself as a la? borer to Mr. Carter, wno resides some miles west of this place, and remained with him until Sunday night last, when he decamped with Mr. Carter's best horse, bridle, saddle and overcoat. Mr. Carter came. immediately to this place early yesterday morning, and had somo hand bills s true off, announcing: tho fact, describing the thief, &c., which were posted in different parts of the town. On last night tho young man came to the Mansion ' House again, having come down from States ville on the Western train, and registered himself as before, "L. Spoil, Sampson Co., N. C." He was at once recognized hy some one as the party described in the hand h?ls, and was arrested accordingly. After his ar? rest he made his escape from tho hands of his cus? todians, but was soon recaptured. After his com? mittal we leam that he mace a full confession con? firming the above statement of facts. He rodo the horse to Stateavflle, sold him there, changed his dress, and came to this city on tho Western train and was arrested_Salisbury Old North slate. A GOOD JOEE ON BENNETT.-The New York cor? respondent of tho Louisville Courier, alluding to the recent yacht race, says: I may as well tell you a little incident. It was naturally supposed, as young Bennett was one of j the most interested parties in it. tho New York Herald would bo the first to receive nows of tho arrival of tho Henrietta, provided she reached Cowes first. Well, she did, but the first tho Herald knew of it was a dispatch sent to it by the cour? tesy of Mr. Craig, of the United States and Euro? pean Association, which boat the broken down Associated Press, as it does every dav, both in the quantity and quality of its nows and thoprcnipt- j ness with which it is transmitted. The Hera lu is | a fast newspaper, and Mr. Bennett too sagacious to remain long with the "monopoly concern." ~ PEDESTRIANISM. "BJTB. JOHN SHEPPARD WILL GO TN TRAINING lU.

SARATOGA "EXCELSIOR" SPRIG WATER. FTVKE WATER OF THIS SPRING IS BELIEVED TO I be unequalled by that or any other in the far-famed valley of Saratoga. Its virtues are such as have secured lt the high encomiums of all who have need it, possess? ing, as lt does, in an eminent degree, cathartic, diuretic, alterative and tonic qualities. Prom SAMUEL HENRY DICKSON, M. D., Professor Practice of Physic. Jefferson Medical College,' Phila? delphia, formerly of Charleston, S. C. : PHILADELPHIA, November 16,18S5. 1 have been for a year or more past in the habit of taking the water of the "Excelsior" Spring of Saratoga. Accustomed during the great portion of my invalid life to use the different waters of the several fountains which bott up along that remarkable valley, dependent, indeed, upon them for much of the comfort I enjoy, I am satis? fied that the Excelsior Water is as well adapted as any other among them, if not more BO, to the purposes for which they are generally employed. It ls very agreeable, strongly impregnated with the carbonic seid, lively and sparkling. * ? * I can heartily and conscientiously recommend it to all who need a gentle cathartic and diuretic. SAMUEL HENRY DICKSON, M. D. The Water is put up in Pint and Quart bottles, and packed in good order for shipping, Pints in boxes of four dooen each, and Quarts in boxes of two dozen each.
