The Cotton quotations for the Liverpool market, on the 12th, were liid.for Middling Uplands. Prom 15,000 to 20,000 canary birds, valued at $80,000, were imported during last year. In Detroit they fined and imprisonod a returned soldier for having fits in the streets. The expenses of running an oil well is from $25 to $30 a day. Scotland consumes twice as much milk as Eng? land and Ireland together. The city of Moscow was lighted with goa for the first time on December 27th. A gay Duke in Paris, recently deceased, was noted as the possessor of 2700 waistcoats. Queen VICTORIA now we igha one hundred and seventy pounds, it is said, and threatens tobo colossal. Mechanics have worked six hundred years on the spire of the Strasburg cathedral. Ahorse thief, who avowed himself to have been a member of QUANTBKKL'S hand, was hung by a mob'in Kansas. Tn Paris the city toxos amount to ten francs, or about two dollars for every head of its popula? tion. . The Cmoinnati Gazette, Radical, quotes, approv? ingly, the Columbia Carolinian in favor of univer - al suffrage. A man in Memphis, has lodged a formal com? plaint before a magistrate that bis wife is in. the 'daily habit of cowhiding him. It is stated that the fare for the round trip to Paris and back, on the Great Eastern, during the Exhibition, will be about $150 in gold. The biggest snow storm that ever occurred in New England waa - one hundred and fifty years ago,-February 20 and 21, 17?7. The snow then fell from eight to len feat on a level. It is stated thf.t recently one steamer carried from Franco the enormous number of twenty-six thousand geese for the London market. About $8,000,000 were expended in St. Louis last year in the construction of building^ which ia a larger amount than ever before in the same length of time. The Portland Argus says an iron fence for the new park in that city is to be imported from Eng? land, at a cost of about $12,000, which is less than it can be built for in this country. The Tycoon of Japan, finding that some of tho officials of his palace had boen dishonest in admin? istering his financial ai?airs, ordered hari-kari for all of them before breakfast. The New Orleans limes says the sugar crop of Louisiana th's year will reach 50,000 hogsheads, against 16, OOO last year, and that only extraordi? nary obstacles will prevent a production of 100,000 'next year. ' Mr. MECSI, of Tiptree Hall, in a letter in the Times ot 28th of December, says: "The last cheap thing I heard of purchased land in Lombard street was over ?2,900,000 sterling per acre, or ?70 per square foot of area." The lord-Beutenaait of Ireland keepsnp the state doe to his viceregal, position, the marchioness never going out, even when' shopping, without four horses to the carriage, and two oat-rider a. The aggregate amount of claims for supplies furnished the army by 'loyal men" is said to reach $12,000,000. It is suspected,' however, that many of the claims are either forged or grossly exagger? ated. The Galveston News, ot the Slat ult., says; "There arrived by the steamer Morgan, yesterday, about two hundred negroes and six large white famines, consisting of some thirty persons in all, . all from Mecklenburg and Union counties, North Carolin* They are all going to Washington county. A large number of workmen are busy in their efforts to raise the frigate Brandywine, which was destroyed by fire about thr. i years ugo, just oppo? site St Helena, in the sei. ihern branch of the Elizabeth River, Ya. AU the appliances that mod? ern skill has produced fer such ? purpose are in requisition, and tho prospect of success is almost beyond a doubt. There is in New York, destined for the Paris Ex? position, a cooking stove which cost $1000. The boiler, tank and pot closet are of German silver, and the whole ia se splendid asa piano. Of course it embraces the latest improvements. In cooking, . current of air passes through the oven, and bread is baked in a brick oven. -General GHAUT, in a circular just issued, says that hereafter boys under the age of twenty-one will not be enlisted, except , for tho purpose of learning music, and then only under authority from the Superintendent of the Recruiting Service or the Adjutant-General of the Army, af ter thc written consent of the parent, guardian, or master has been obtained, and when that cannot be had boys will not be received. A firm in Brandon, Yt, use two thousand cords of wood a year, and employ sixty men, women and children, in making pill boxes and spools. The factory turns ont five hundred gross of boxes per day-72,000 boxes daily, or 21,600,000 per year's j work of three hundred days. Surely this country ' is "death on pills." Under the bounty equalization bill of last July about 114,000 applicants for the bounty of white and colored deceased soldiers have been made at the Second Auditor's office, and about 100,000 of living white soldiers at the Paymaster-General's office. Applications are still coming in at the rate of about 1000 per day. The manager of the New York Clearing House bas just made up tbs quarterly statement of the associate banka of that city. He reports their lia? bilities at 1368,871,305. A month since they were over $25,000,000 more than this sum. In Canada there are thirteen railway companies -two closed and eleven in operation-independent of each other. ? The joint earnings of the eleven roads in operation in 1866, as shown by ah official statement recently published, were, from pas? sengers, $4,200,776: from freight, $6,221,108; and from mails and sundries, $457,079. Total earnings in 1866, $10,968,963, against $10,793,378 in 1860. A company has been formed by men in New York and Meriden, Ct, for the manufacture of hats by a machine which weaves them whole. To perfect the machine : and buy up the different patents, cost $70,000. It .weaves a perfect crown and brim. The hat* may be either made of horse hair, linen thread, panama, or a kind of grass that grows in warm climates. The Jackson Clarion says that a few days ago the Governor of Mississippi received a letter from Peoria, Illinois, informing him that the writer had in his possession the sword presented by the State of Mississippi to Gen. YAM DOES, and which stolen property he proposed to restore to the State for the sum of five hundred dollars. He also informed the Governor that this price could be obtained from other parties, but that ho preferred giving the first chance to the State. The following advertisement is from the Bir? mingham Post : "Wanted-a general servant in a small family, where a man is kept. The house? work and cooking all done by the members of the family. The gentleman of the house rises early, but prepares breakfast himself. All the washing is put out and the kitchen is provided with ever}' comfort and luxury. Cold meat and hash studi? ously avoided. Wages no object to a competent party. References and photographs exchanged." The steamship Great. Eastern has boon char? tered by a French company to ruu between New York and Brest during the summer. Twelve hun? dred men are now employed in preparing her for this service. Tho price of passage in her will be $100 in gold, with extra charges tor extra accom? modations. There are no second-class rates-all the passengers being expected to dine at the same table and use the same cabins. Tho extra charges -will in no case exceed $40 in gold. The attitude of the people of Servia has become i ftc threatening that the few Turkish families which reside in the country deem it best to flee. While thus, fn the North of European Turkey, the out? break of a revolution is becoming more and more certain, the Government of Greece bas replied to the late Turkish note by a very warlike declaration. They officially state, in a note to Foreign Powers, that a crisis is at hand, and that they deem it' proper to proposo an increase of the army and navy. The declaration not only shows that Greece is preparing for war, but makes it also highlyprob- o able that she has assurances from Russia that no intervention by any European Power in behalf of Ib,e Tarka will be permitted. i LARGEST CIRCULATION.-The DAILY NEWS jmhlishcs the Official List of Let? ters remaining in thc Posh?ce itt the end of each teal; agreeably to //ii? following section of the Mic Posto?ce Laic, as the newspaper having the largest, circulation in the City of Charleston: SECTION- ft, Ami bc it further enacted.

THURSDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 14,1867. UNPARALLELED LIBERALITY. Our readers some days ago wero informed of the very munificent donation recently made by Mr. GEORGE PEABODY, to provide educition for tho des? titute in the Southern States. He has placed, for this piirposo, ii? tho hands of a number of gontlo men, solected by himself to act as Trustees for tho Fund, an amount, in money and securities, equalling $2,100,000. Of this tho interest is to be used and applied, according to the discretion oi tho Trustees 'Tor tho promotion and encourage? ment of intellectual, moral or industrial education among thc young of the more destitute portions of the Southern States of our Union, my purpose be? ing," says Mr. PEABODY, "that the benefits intended shall bo distributed among the entire population without other distinction than their needs and the opportunities of usefulness ito them." The Trustees also have permission to uso beside tho income thus domed, from tho principal sum with? in the next two years an amount not exceeding. 40 per cent. Mr. PEABODY also empowers the Trasteos, or their lawful successors, in ca0 two-thirds of their, number shall at any time, afl^tr the lapse of thirty years, deem it expedient to close this trust, and of the funds which at that time shall be in their hands, to distribute not less than two-thirds for: such educational purposes as they may determine in the States for whose benefit the income is no* appointed to bo used. The remainder may be dib tributed by tho Trustees for educational or litera? ry purposes.'wherever they may deem it expedi? ent. . The deed of conveyance closes in the follpwing language: "With reverent recognition of the need of the blessing of Almighty God upon my gift, and with the fervent prayer that under His guidance your counsels may bo directed for the highest good of present and future ' generations .in our be? loved-country, I am, gentlemen, with great re? spect, your bumble servant, GEORGE PEABODY. WAflHTNaTON.Febroary 7,1867. '" Tho document was addressed to Hon. ROBERT C. WnrrHBOP, pf Massachusetts,. Hon. HAMILTON FISH, of New York, BL Rev. CHARLES P. MCIL VAINE, of Ohio, Gen. U. S. GRANT, of the United States army, Hon. Wu. G. RIVES, of Virginia, Hon. JOHN H. CLIFFORD, of Massachusetts, Hon. Wad AIKEN, of South Carolina, WM. M. EVABTS, Esq., of New York, Hon. Wu. A. GRAHAM, of North Carolina, CHARLES MCALLISTER, of Pennsylvania, GEO. A. RIGGS, Esq., of Washington, SAMUEL WET MOBS, of New York, EDWARD A. BRADFORD, Esq., of Lo ui si ana, GEO. N. EATON, of Maryland, and GEORGE PEABODY RUSSELL, Esq., of Massachusetts. The abo va named Trustees, at JI meeting boll in Washington, adopted anti signed tho following resolutions, presented by Bishop MCILVAINE. liesot?ed, That wo hereby express to Mr. Pea? body our grateful appreciation of the enlarged and unprecedented generosity which, after having bestowed on the poor of tho city of London a bountv that drew forth the admiration of Europe, and after having exceeded the same on his return to his native land in benefactions to institutions of j learning and oducation in the Middle and Eastern States of the Union, bas now crowned the whole with this last deed of patriotism and loving kind? ness, so eminently suited to bind together the sev? eral parts of our beloved country in the last bond of mutual well-doing and rogan!. Resolved, That we express to Mr. Peabody our respectf' 1 and affectionate grayer that, in the gra? cious p. . videneo of our Heavenly Father, his valu? able lite may be long spared to witness the success ot his benevolent contributions to the happiness of his fellow-citizens in all prrls of his native and beloved land, and that many bf ftoso-whbin God bas blessed with large possessions may be induced to follow his example of wise and noble employ? ment of wealth for the good of man aud tho clow of God. An organization has already been effected, of whioh Hon. ROBT. C. WIBNBBOP, of Massachusetts, is Chairman, and Mr. RUSSELL, of Massachusetts, is Secretary. Committees of Finance and Inquiiy have been appointed, and it is tho intention of tho Trustees to commence active operations as soon as possible. Every lover of bis species must look with ploas ure upon this act of munificence on the part of Mr. PEABODY; and every American be proud tb call him countryman. Finis coronal opus. Mr. P. has devised liberal things for a third of a century; and while ho has always shown a special preference for his own country, bis large-hearted benevolence bas never been restricted,?nd his purse boen open to the needy of every race and every country. He is now near the end of a long and useful career, and has set a fitting crown to the glorious work of a life time. The annals of the world cannot equal Iiis liberality. Seldom before bas a private citizen had such a wealth of resources at command ns this, our li boral compatriot, but never has there been one who made such princely use of his means. Truth once again is stranger than fiction. The heroes of ro? mance, created by the rich fancy of a DUMAS or a SOE, SO lavish in their bestowment of money for the amelioration of? the needy of mankind, seldom go about it in n rational way, and generally accom? plish but little that can bo considered really use? ful; and the pictures aro in tho highest degreo ex? aggerated, and in no way natural. Whereas, here we find a private citizen, annually almost giving away millions;-not to street beggars, or to grati? fy a morbid sontimont,-but upon mature conside? ration, and for mac and lasting purposes. That Mr. PEABODY, in the exorcise of his benevo? lence, should know no South, no North, no East uer West, is enkiroly iu accordance with what wo would expert, in so magnanimous a nature. His long absence from this continent may havo con? tributed largely in preseiriDg his heart from tho inroads of sectioml hatred and narrow-mindod bitterness. Most of the munificent foundations for literary | ? and scientific purposca, cstabhtned by private par? ties, both in tbe old country and in our own, wcro istablishod by bequests ; tho results of death? bed liberality. It is unnecessary to e.iy that much ?Treater credit is due to men like Mr. PEABODY, who ore their own executors. WHAT IS TRUTH. Mr. RAYMOND, on the Sth instant, made a power? ed argument in opposition to tho Bill then under liscussion in the House of Representativos for the ?tablishmont ol Militury Governments in the -louth. In tho course of his remcrks he said : Until quito recently in our history thc army had jeen considered thc army of tho Government; its .ight band; the Executive power emanating from ibo civil power. Was there a necessity for revers ng that state cf things now? He know of no oL itacle to the establishment of civil authority in the Southern States on BUCII basis as Congress deemed vise and juBt. That civil authority should be cn itled to increase on resistance to it and to tho aid ?f tho army to execute its decrees. Mr. HotchkiBS inquired of Mr. Raymond wheth V it was not tho untveisal tcstimou}' of loval mon ?f tho South, that if the army were withdrawn heir fives would be sacrificed? Mr. Raymond replied that thc quostion would be nore pertinent if ho said ono word in favor of rithdrawing one portion of the army now there, le was in favor of having sufficient forco iu every ?outhern State to enforce such laws as might bo sade by tho civil authority for tho protection of ifo ana property. What "bo objected lo was not lin presence of tho army, not tho protection to be xtended by thc army" tiver loyal citizens, black nd white, but to clothing a solitary officer of that nny with power to make laws as ho pleased, and !?ake bis own definition of what his duties were. Now what are tho facts ? Is it indeed true, as Ir. HOTCHKISS asked Mr. RAYMOND, daring enntm* lotion, that the lives of the loyal mon would bo acrificed in tho South, if the anny wero with Ir^wn ? As we are within tho prescribed districts, re solicit information on this topic. Aro there ny loyal people in South Carolina, ur? there any a Charleston, who consider thal their lives would o in danger if tho United States army wcro with rawn? If so, wo invite then to communicate uch fact, at.d give their reasons therefor. Lot us now what is tho truth in tho case. Wo wish very community in tho South would euter on ach a self-examination, and then give to the orld the result of their inquiry. Only thus can nth be elicited. N< _WANTS.
