Gonural SLOCUM is to bo Naval Officer at Now Torie Prince ALFRED, Duke of Edinburg, is in bis 23d year, and has a pension cf $75,000. A man bas offered Opera House Leo $500 for thc "long-tailed night shirt" be wore when he got the news. We doubt the truth of this night-shirt tale. ARTEMUS WABD ia under the professional caro of Mrs. Dr. HABT WALKES, in London. A very nico brace of humbugs. We wonder what Betsey Jane will say? A compositor in Kokomo, Indiana, is said to bave had a soro finger from which, after suffering great pain, he Bqueezod two brevier typos. A co temporary advises bim to squeeze again and get the rest of tho font, and a double-cylinder press. Tho San Francisco Mining and ScierUific Press bas just come out in new typo from the first font ever cast on the Pacific coast. The Press ia ably conducted and of groat value to all interested in mining operations in that section. The United States Government appropriated, in 1856, a tract of land in Washington Territory, for war purposes, which ono GEOBQE W. JOHNSON claims as bis, and wanta Uncle Sam to pay $2,000, 000 for. BEN. BTJTLEB is helping GEOBQE in bis efforts to get it. The celebrated article in tho London Saturday Review, on the impeachment of President JOHN? SON, which appeared in tbat paper on January 19fch, was written by Hon. J. P. BENJAMIN, lato Confederate Secretary of State. A picture in a lato number of Punch represents a fashionable and affectionate couple, the busband searching vigorously in bis waistcoat pockets. The young wife inquires, "Have you lost your watch, love ?" and be roplies, "No, darling, 'twas a new bonnet I had for you somewhere." Gen. Bo BEBT E. LEE, the Baltimore Gazette says, is not engaged in writing a history of the Army of Northern Virginia, or of any work connected with the late war. A rather cruel battue hos taken place near Victo? ria, Australia, by which the enormous numbor of 3000 kangaroos were slaughtered in ono day. This .looks like a disposition towards tho extermination ot this singular animal. Another proof of tho pro? gress of what ia called civilization. Bev. W. J. BUTLER, formerly of Trinity College, Cambridge, has been elected Bishop of Natal, in place of COLENSO, wbo is on tbe ground, and pre? pared to make it extremely lively for bim incase be goes out. He bas agreed to take the advice of the Archbishop of Canterbury and the Bishop of Oxford about accepting. The Louisville Journal says : "Mr. JEROME, tho New York Journals announce, bas founded at Princeton College a prize for the first gentleman. The foundation is five thousand dollars. Every public-spirited citizen, who has road the proceed? ings in Congress on Thursday last, and bas five thousand dollars to spare, must feel strongly tempted by Mr. JEROME'S exam plo.' Beliable statistical authority says that the Epis - copal Church in tho United States have 2306 par? ishes, over which and in which 2530 clergymen of varions rank preside imd work. The total mem? bership of the church, young and old, is 161,225, from which tbe liberal sum of $3,911,667 was drawn by clivers charitable enterprises during the past year. The case of the State of Louisiana vs. tbe Lou? isiana State Bank, was commenced in New Orleans on the 6th. The suit is for tbe recovery of nearly $1,000,000 claimed as remaining to the credit of the State on bond of the bank, which was a fiscal agent during the Confederacy. Tho State alleges that, by permission of Generals BTJTLEB and SHEPLEI, 11,000 bales of cotton were purchased and brought to the city, and sold for tho benefit of the bank and State. GEOBQE PEABODY has been in Washington for some days past. His object is said to be to organ? ize and perfect a plan for disbursing a larger en? dowment than any be bas yet bestowed, and he in in consultation with the leading men of the coun? try as to the moauB to be employed in furtherance of his plans. His purpose is to effect, as far as in bis power, education in the Southern States by es? tablishing schools, endowing colleges, ?tc. No definite course of action has yet been decided upon. Efforts are being made by tbe authorities to pnt a stop ts the semi-slave trade which has for some time been carried on in Hesse-Darmstadt and Nas? sau. Children of both sexes- are purchased or hired from their parents and guardian*. The boys are exported to the principal European cities, where they are employed in begging, playing tho hurdy-gurdy, and selling common objects. Tho grown-up girls are brought to this country, and dance at the low saloons. The Albany Argus of the 1st bas the following : "Tbe Managers of the National Telegraph Com? pany, incorporated under tbe act of Congress, bave opened a subscription in this city. Syracuse has contributed about $200,000. The Managers allot to the Pacific States one million, to Ohio the same amount, to Missouri, Indiana, Ax., $700,000 each. They expect to establish their lines for $3,500,000, though their capital is $10,000,000. The enterprise is in the hands of vigorons men. A London paper says: "Newest among what Mr. TENNYSON calls. the 'fairy gifts of science,' we no? tice an invention of Mr. HTETT to make trees im? bibe color while growing. The results exhibited lately at a converzasione of the Cirencester Boyal Agricultural College, in the form of beautiful sec? tions and panchettes of wood, stained with various hues. Metallic Balts are introduced into the sub? stance of the growing substance of the tree, appar? ently carried up by the sap, and forced into the fibre and cells of-the stem." It is stated that Dr. BURLEIGH, delegate from Dakota, has organized a party to take a trip ont through Dakota, to star* on June ist. The party is to consist of Senators WADE, PATTERSON, of New Hampshire, CHANDLER, HOWARD, TATES, MOB BILL, of Maine, and POLAND; Representatives WIL? LIAMS, COVODE and BINGHAM; Hon. E. MCPHERSON and Chief Justice CARTTEB. They will set out from y anion and go down Bed river to the British pos? se asians, then along the line ofthe projected Paci? fic railroad to yellowstone river, and then return down the river. They are to have a military escort, and Indians to supply them with subsistence, and will be gone about three months. The London Times ot January 22 says that twenty thousand dock laborers in England have not earned a smiling for two months, and adds :. ' 'A g?htlem?n??s??lng'hT th? West India road states that he bad visited many of the working people at their houses in that neighborhood, and that the distress among, the mechanics and laborers is appalling. Many of them, he soys, are quite dis? heartened, sitting within bare Walls,.with neither bed nor clothing, and with their children almost naked and famishing. Strong young mon had burst into tears on seeing him enter, and pointed to their starving wives and children in silent despair." In Detroit, a new motive power for starting street oars has been invented. It ia thus described: A wheel is firmly attached to' tba centre of an axle. On this a "dog" impinges the moment an attach? ment intended to draw tho car! is acted upon. This so rapidly assists in moving the wheels, that the moment they aro started the" leverage ia re? moved, bat immediately on stopping it returns to its original position, and is ready for tho next start, This attachment and fulcrum are insepar? ably connected, and must act conjointly. Ita sim? plicity is a principal feature, and cannot-fail in one respect to commend itself. At the anti-slavery subscription anniversary in Boston the other night, WENDELL PHTLLTM came upon the platform with a curious looking weapon in his hand, which, he said, in commencing, was a veritable relio of tho battle of Fort Wagner. It was a pike of the JORK BROWN pattern, with which ' tbs Confederates in that redoubt were partially . firmed, or had on hand for a close emergency, when it was stormed by the Fifty-fifth Massachu? setts Begiment; Ho came upon tho platform, he said, 'in the character of an auctioneer. He had twenty-five of these weapons to Bell to the highest bidder. [ Tho result was that several were sold at $10. {Do ?ny of our readers know anything about these JOHN BROWN pikes that are alleged to have been used by the Confederates at Battery Wagner? Or ie this a mere pious fraud?] _ .SioJoo 5.00 . 3.50 ,0 cents .3 cents LARGEST OIROULATI?I?..-The DAILY NEWS publishes thc Official List of Let? ters remaining in thc Postoffice, at the. end of each week, agreeably to the following section of the Neto Postoffice Law, as the newspaper having the largest circulation in thc City of Charleston : SxcmortR.

TUESDAY MORNING*. FEBRUARY 12, 1807. TUE SITUATION. Tho Joint Congressional Committee on Recon? struction, at thc close of last session, brought in a report, recommending the passage of au amend? ment to tho Constitution of tho United States. This amendment hns since boon submitted to the soveral Legislatures or tho Southern Statos, and was almost unanimosly rejected by every ono of them. To punish theso Statos for their obduracy, tho samo Committee in Congress, within tho last few days, have reported favorably upon a Bill in? troduced by Senator WILLIAMS, of Oregon, tho main outlines of which wo published about two weeks ago in our telegraphic columns, and the full text of which we gavo in our issue of yester? day. If this Bill boeomos a law, and is not votocd by the Executive, or sot asido by the Judiciary, wo shall bo brought to tasto the bitterness of a despotism equal to tho worst f "rms of Asiatic rule rocorded in history. Stato lines aro to bo abro, gated, our municipal and State Governments over? thrown, our Stato Constitution and laws will be poworloss to afford us any protocticn, even the Constitution of tho United States will bo no bar? rier to the exorciso of this tyranny. It is distinct? ly and professedly set aside. Tho ptivilego of Jiabcas corpus is to bo suspended; civil rights, which aro claimed for the meanest, tho most ab? ject dwellers of the land, are to bo deliberately and studiously deniod to miUions of intelligent, peace? able men, who, themselves and thoir ancestors, have for ages boon in tho full and f. eo exercise of all the privileges of*enlip;htenod citizenship. All this is done to subserve tho wicked selfishness of party purposes. Tho old adage, "Tho voice of tho people is tho supremo law," will have to bo changed. Vox salrapea suprema lex will bc tho futuro reading. Events are rapidly culminating to a crisis. Con gross,-certainly tho moro Radical part of it, seomB bent on ono or another ol these destructivo plans of Reconstruction; yet theso projects, they know, can never bo executed as long as ANDHEW JOHNSON remains President. Indeed, Mr. JOHN? SON, at the White Houso acts as a check on all kindred measures; for although Congress over? rides his vetoes, and has restricted his power, and hampered the exercise of Iiis prerogative in every conceivable form and shape; still it is found that his mere presence "at the other end of tho Ave? nue," locks tho wheels of Radical legislation. Overruling tho Presidential veto is not a finality, it still leaves-room for objections on constitutional grounds from the Supremo Court. This tribunal cannot be abolished. It is found nocossaiy to re? organizo it, and thus change its political com? plexion. This, howover, cannot be done as long as JOHNSON is President. Tho one groat task thon before tho extreme fac tioniats is tho impeachment and removal of the President. This, it is folt, must bo compassed at any cost. No stone is left unturned to dragoon the party up to a state of political frenzy, reckless of all cousequencos. A whole army of scribblers and stump agitators are retained to familiarize the masses with these revolutionary tactics. An or? ganization is said to exist under the name of tho Grand Army of tho Union, 500,000 slrong, tho special purpose of which it is to bo at hand in case they shall bo ncoded to carry the impeachment. FOBNES'S papers ave recognized as the official organs that set the tune, and from them tho smaller fry take up tho cry. The respectable Re? publican journals, those which have heretofore been considered as the Organa of thc porty, with singular unanimity condemn tho whole plan and proceeding. But on the other hand, to compen? sate for this defection on tho part of tho faithful, a competent corps of mercenaries has been enlisted, at the hoad of which stands the Now York Herald. For nearly two months past this shoot almost daily has had ono or two editorial articles, demanding, with earnest solicitude^he impeachment and re? moval of the Proside? Coupled with this de? mand, says the Boston Post, Lt a very thoughtful leader on this subject, and as if to cover the tracks of the conspirators, it swoepingly proceeds to show how Congress can declare three-fourths of tho Statos represented to ho competent to adopt an amendment to tho Constitution; how it may pass a law deposing the Exocutivo whilo his trial is pro? ceeding; how Gon. GRANT, or some moro ductile General, may bo sot in his chair until a new elec? tion sholl be ordered, or Congross shall choose to make a President of its own; how tho Supremo Court may be abolished by legislation and some? thing created in its place to register the edicts of Congress instead of reviewing and deciding upon its laws; and how overything will proceed without a ruffle or a jar; the deposition of the President and the arbittary appointment of another be effect? ed without shaking popular confidence or under? mining the foundations of public credit; tho Su? preme Court be abolished by a co-ordinate branch of tho Government with no danger whatever to the steady working of our system; and the majority in Congress usurp all the functions of Government in the name of the people, though undeniably to the popular wrong and the downfall of the wise and equitable government sot up by the Fathers. There is more "method'' in this madness of the Herald than instantly suggests itself. It is in the strict Uno of its duty, which has always been that of its interest. The single principle which has in? spired the conduct of that paper from the begin? ning of ita existence has been, apparently, some? thing very like black-mail. It alternately sided with the Democrats and the Whigs, employing abuse when flattery failed, and always holding out its right hand and its left that so it might at least catch-something. Its editor made a good part of his living off actors and actresses, singers and mu? sicians, by making them fear the effects of his journalistic frown. Those who p .id their dollars into its gaping treasury, did so rather to silence its denunciations than beoause they believed its high? est terms of praise and nattery were of any real service to them. Tho .Herald has the most of its days been considered a black mail sheet, and at tho unmistakable close of its ca? reer is proving itself true to the rule which has been its reputed guide from the begin? ning. Just before the war, no paper in tbo coun? try so roundly abused Abolitionists and Repub? licans; now the war is ended, it out-radicals Radicalism itself in its bold assault on two of tho departments of the Government, and in its base? less declarations that the majority of a fraction of Congress compose ibo permanent and responsible authority of the nation. When the proposition for impeachment waa first presented in Congress, no paper was moro violent in its denunciations of the proceeding, or drew more vivid pictures of the dis? astrous consequences of such a measure to the business of the country lind its political welfare; now, none so vehement in advocating tho Ashley Bon tivoli -Eu tier crusade. It would bo travelling wide of the rule to sup? pose that the motives of this sheet were not, aa usual, mercenary in the present case. The reck? less perseverance manifested, where common pru? dence requires of the public journalist an exem? plary degree of discretion in discussing a matter of such moment, leaves little to be suspected in the case of a paper of such notorious antecedents. Where everything like principle is become abhor rontlv venal, fanaticism ia sure of finding ah ally by simply complying with its terms. Those are its favorito instruments, too, because, when tho obligations are mutually cancelled, each side is freo to treat the other aa if thoro had existed no temporary relationship. Such a prostitution of the responsibio office of a public journal is, at a critical juncture like thia, au unpardonable affront to the patriotism of all in? telligent men, and & disgrace to tho party geflty of it. There can bo but few who approve a conree so fraught with public peril. Tho deliboirate impeach? ment of the President of the United States seems to call for different treatment by the whole press of the country from that which porty passion and % paid advocacy suggest It ia a most serious ex? periment to try, whatever such a journal as tho New York Herald professes to thiuk about it. Par sued for selfish ends alone, aa is now proposed, it threatens to culminate in disaster not. leas wide ban a convulsion of all the elements of our ropub icsn system; involving the final overthrow of con ititutional freedom': A writer in the New York Times, a Black Repnb ican, signing himself''A Veteran Observer, " gives ?OHIO very cogent reasons, why tho President should not bo -impeached. Thcao, though con? ceived from different point? of viow, aro, many of them, almost identical with tho objections pointed out to such a course in a recant number of tho London Sa.urtlay Review. Tho writer iu tho Times holds, 1. That an impeachment of tho Prcsidont is ptr se a disgrnco upon tho country. 2. Tho im? peachment must morally fail, not upon tho tech? nical or Constitutional grounds, but because tho in? tent is tho offenco of evory crime; and tho utmost that can with truth bo charged upon Prcsidont JOHNSON is that ho actod upon a mistaken policy. 3. An impeachment will bo disastrous to American influonco over tho European mind. 4. Tho "Vete? ran Obsorvor" thinks that an impeachment will ro ault in putting the Democratic party into rowor, I whilo ho bolioves that tho succoss of the Govern? ment iu tho futuro depends on tho present success I of tho Union party. "Wo can afford," ho says, "to let Mr. JOHNSON-now practically powerless linger out tho short period of bia official power; but wo cannot afford to do doubtful acts which con? cern tho national character at home and abroad. Wo canuot afford to lot even robols indict ns beforo tho world for factious acts and malignant mo? tives." WANTS. WANTED, A SITUATION" AS WET NURSE, by a respectable white woman.
