Void closed at That old cabinet-maker, Mr. BLAIR, is reported to Lave gone to Boston to offer the portfolio of State io Governor ANDREW. So says the New York Meratd. THOMAS A COLT, the Irvington School teacher, convicted in the Essex Court of assault and batte? ry on a childe so that he subsequently died of dis? ease superinduced by the brutal beating, has been fined $250. _ A report^ Manchester, England, Free Libraries states that these institutions now contain 116,170 ?volumes, of wMch.38,426 are books of reference y and that the average number of volumes daily lent S106S. A special from Auburn, De Kalb County, Ind., states that the safe in tho office of the County Treasurer of De Kalb County? at that place, was blown open by burglars and robbed of $15,000 in greenbacks. The robbers escaped. The Brat?eboro'Pfuenix says: "A tapeworm .preserved in alcohol, has been shown us; which -waa removed a few/weeks ago from HENEY A BEYNOLDS, of this village,' by Dr. KETCHUM, that measured 546 inches in length." The yoong Jew, MORTABA, whose abduction some years back caused such a great excitement in Europe, bas. juat. entered the Church oi St. Peter's,; ?tBpm?, as ra ^novice, Before joining the order of regular canons of St. Jean-de-L-etran, at Rome. He is now fifteen years old. A cable.dispatch reports the loss vf the ship Ad? dison, ot Kennebunkport, with all hands on board, except Captain SLOAN, the mate, HENEY WABD, and four seamen. Tho captain's wife and child -were lost. No further particulars have been re ceived. y \. ? > ? ? The Court of Claims has made an important de? cision by which ?very officer bf the army in com? mission between May 1,1864, and March 8,1865, receives sixteen dollars per month for each ser? vant allowed bim by law, or five dollars additional io what he has already been paid. A large oscillating rook is said to have been found in the wilderness of Western Arkansas. It is situated in the channel of a torrent, and moves to and fro, apparently from the actic-. of the water. The motion produced a load noise, which can be beard for se veralmi?es, so thee tory runs. A cable, dispatch ; from Berlin/dated Friday, states that Count BISMARCK'S condition is improv? ing, and that it is now thought that he will recover. His death at the present moment would be an ir? reparable loss to Germany. He was present at the opening of Parliament on Saturday. . According to some statistics recently published ju a French paper, there is one murder committed in England for every 178,000 inhabitants; in. Hol? land for every 163,000; in Prussia for every 100,000; in Austria for every 77,000; in Spain for every 4113, and in the States of the Church for ?very 750. The -House of Representatives, iii considering the amendatory internal Revenue Bul, has fixed the tax on segare as follows ?. "O? a? segara, che? roots and cigarettes, five dollars per thousand, and twenty; per cent, ad valorem on the market value." This is an important change, being a reduction of Tato reported by the committee. * The barn of INGALIS DAMON, of North Reading, Mass., was burned last week, Wednesday, and the - remains ol the owner found in the ruins. As he .jvas a penurious old man and lived alone, there was some suspicion of foul play. " But his house does not appear to have been disturbed, and about *6800 was found in a box in the oellar untouched. The Bath Times says Brig. Gen. F. D. SEW ALL, I of that city, Inspector-General of the Freedmen's Bureau, is ordered to virginia to dispose of the freedmen who are encamped in-various portions of that State, procuring homes for them when it j ?can bo done, forwarding the remainder to other j pointe North and West, where homes are to be j provided for them. Tho London Header has come to A termination, I after a very agitated and unhappy Hie. Its last ?number was signalized by a strange blander in a review of DrJ LATHAM'S new edition of JOHNSON'S Dictionary, where JOHNSON'S preface was spoken cf ss the modern editor's, and denounced for pre? sumption, boastfulness and worthlessness, while j tho disappearance of JOHNSON'B admirable writing I ia lamented I j Tho English mint, established at Hong Kong, meeta with a difficulty in the refusal 'of tho Chi- I mese Government to accept the coin as currency. The Daily 'Press says : "Of course a currency of any kind, if the Chinese would only be civilized enough to see it, would be an immense improve? ment on the clumsy system of bartering goods for SO much bunion, but you cannot.civilize them to a. perosption of this at a Wow." I The Tallahassee'Sentinel says the peach trees in that locality are blooming beautifully, and that ?almost all kinds of shrubbery are-beginning to as- 1 .sume a vernal dress. We are sorry to hear it, for St is almost certain the young peaches will be kill- j ' .ed by cold and frosty weather between tins and h 'the middle of March, and there will be no fruit 1 thereabout ~? throughout that country the coming < season. I i From Chili it is once more reported that a ' speedy conclusion of peace between Spain and the M Allied Republics is probable, and a truce was said * io have already been agreed upon. The internal 1 condition of most of the republics continues to be U most deplorable. The Peruvian Government is ? charged with swindling operations to an almost * unparalleled extent, and the speedy fall of the < president was expected. President MOSQUERA is 1 rapidly losing the reputation which his Liberalism f iad gained fur him. ( Ble is strongly snspeotod of j < an intention to annex Ecuador and Venezuela, and I < even of monarchial tendencies. M If it is true that outside pressure has so far changed the opinions held.by the House two weeks E ago, says the Tribune, that the.friends of the c Bankrupt Bill are even afraid to move a Committee 1 cf Conference, the fact is not creditable to Con- 1 gross. The Bankrupt Bill is indispensable to a H healthy condition o? national business ; its neces- e sity has been demonstrated again and"again, and 1 asserted by the majority of the House. That a c few merchants who are afraid of losing their bad I debts by its passage should have the power to ? threaten its defeat would be a startling proof of a tho weakness of the legislators, and their inability s io form an opinion in the Hall of Representatives g which cannot \>e changed by a walk into the 6 lobby. Tho country insists chat the Bankrupt ? Bin shall be passed without delay. j s Our Mexican letters, says the New York Herald, L cf Friday, are dated at Mexico city, February 6, c and Vera Cruz, February. 12. On the evacuation ti cf the capital by the French, MARQUEZ declared ? martial law. The United States Courts inquired of ? him if some of the provisions of his proclamation, tl -which were more than usually strict, applied to h American citizens, but received no answer. No t] liberals were yet in sight. The first of the French a transports, had arrived from Brest. BAJATNE had u issued a proclamation taking a very affectionate L leave of the Mexicans in Mexico city. CORONA, I commanding ia the State of Jalisco, had given no- a tice to aU who took part with the Imperialists to i* leave in five days. The Mexican Minister at Wash- f < ington has received official conformation of the de- a feat of MIRAM ON. The report of the capture of S JUAREZ is said to be only a wild rumor. fi Li the House of Commons in London, on the 1< 6th instant, Mr. KAVANAGH, the now member for a Wexford county, Ireland, having seither hands nor h feet, was brought to the table in a wheeled chair to t K sworn. The honorable member, after taking ? th) oath, signed the parliamentary roll by placing o tho pen between ?he ends of his arms. He ap- tl pcared to write with great fluency. After signing si .Jun name he was, in the ush? form, introduced to si iba Speaker, to whom he bowed, and then, by a placing his arms in brass sockets and turning some n screw* which operated upon thc wheel of his chair, I n he passed out of the House. Considerable curios? ity was Bwoifeated, and several honorable mem? bers went to the table to inspect Mr. KAYANAOH'S signature. After the House rose Sir D. LE MAR? CHANT, Captain G?SSET and Cclonel FORESTER wero engaged in finding a imitable place in th? House fox tlie honorable!member during the debates.

CHXRTLESTON. TUESDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 26, 1867. THE NEW CIVILIZATION. The institution of slavery was sanctioned in the Scriptures. Political and even social equality is'no part of the doctrine of the Bible. Woman's Rights is denounced definitely, explicitly, and repeated? ly hy ST. PAUL. Yet the higher law teachers of thes? latter days find no difficulty whatever in making their doctrines appear in entire consisten? cy with theological orthodoxy. Oms, said the Rev. HENRY WARD BEECHER, in a recent lecture on ? suffrage, before the Brooklyn Fraternity-ours ia a suporior civilization. ST. PAUL only adapted himself to the narrow views of the Greeks, whom he was addressing, and his teaching is in no wise to be considered binding upon xis, who are blessed with the light of the nineteenth century. Equality and philanthropy are two virtues that have been added to the old catalogue. Consistency, however, once deemed a jewel, is now in repute. For. while th? letter of the law is not binuing in slavery, and in thepubli.i exhibition of women? there is no such latitude allowed when it comes to "Rebellion" and "Oaths to tho Constitution." Treason and rebellion, from their very nature, can be considered crimes only in monarchical' oountries. The very idea is foreign to the spirit of the government, as originally founded in these 1 States. We hear much of the sanctity of the oath, taken by sundry persons to support the Constitu? tion of the United States, and of the guilt of per jury'incurred by these persons, in joining the re? bellion. The arguments, the tirades of abuse, the vituperation made use of in denouncing these per jurera, is precisely the same we find on the pages of English history two hundred years ago, in ibo mouths of the most bigott?d and narrow-minded High Church Tories. The fallacy of such reason? ing has boen exposed again and again. When Lord MACAULAY, in the brilliant introductory chap? ters to his History, a few yeani ago, reviewed tho argument, and exposed and derided its sophistry, it is safe to say, he had the entire number of his American readers in sympathy with his views. Now look what a change. In vain are our North? ern friends reminded cf that traitor and perjurer, (as. the Tories of his day were pleased to style him,) GEORGE WASHINGTON, of the First Military District, lately known as Vkginia. They can see no analogy. ; , ' "Treason must be made odious." Here is the trouble., They have conquered the South. The South accepts the situation, and renews its alle? giance to the Government; but it is not sufficiently humble-Bmi tea not its breast, and cries peccavL. This must not, shall hot, be, say they. "Treason must be made odious." These rebela, must fall down to the earth, put on sackcloth and ashes, and cry out : "We have sinned against the flag; we are not worthy to have the patriotic bunting again wave over ns. - We are miserable, degraded wretches." Nothing else can satisfy, them. JEFF. DAVES has been punished for two years; he has been locked up in a lonely fortress, during part of the timo experiencing the most cruel rigors; but they feel they have failed in making him odious. They can make him suffer, but they cannot degrade him.; . .. . General SHERIDAN wrote a very valiant letter to the Mayor of Galvj.-ton, denouncing the heroic ALBERT SIDNEY JOHNSTON. Although this letter endeared him in the hearts of all loyal persons (so said the New York Tribune), we fear it failed of its professed result-to degrade the memory of the dead hero, against whom he was waging-warfare. So Governor PTEBronrr could soe nothing to ad? mire -in General Stonewall JACKSON. It seems that in this he differs from Mr. THADDEUS STEVENS, who, in one of his recent speeches on the floor of the House of Representatives in Washington, re? ferred with admiration to Stonewall JACKSON and his Brigade. Gen. THOMAS, in his recent letter to the Mayor of Reme, Ga. (which document has been eopied into and lauded by all tho papers of the North), is the most recent specimen of this character. So well versed are all these gentlemen in matters of law, pomology, casuistry, etc., that their letters generally contain copious doctrine and much vol? untary advice, relating to the orime of rebellion. He says that rebellion is not a mere venial mis? take, it is a crime, a heinous crime,-worse far. than any one contained in the decalogue, nay, equal in enormity to the sum of all the crimes of the decalogue. ' If we were to hint that there waB something akin to blasphemy in this assertion, snob opinion would be set down as the natural out? growth of disloyalty; and inasmuch as we have not the faintest wish to be, or even seem to be dis? loyal, we shall not venture to pronounce General THOMAS' remark blasphemous. This is the method resorted to make treason odious.' Treason and rebellion are undoubtedly considered crimes in monarchical countries, and, when unsuc sessful, are punished. But not even in the days when the right divine of Kings was all butun traestianed, was there any personal dishonor at? tached to this crime. Lady JANE GREY, Sir WAL IEE RALEIGH, RUSSELL, the Earl of Derwentwater, md LOCHIEL, are not, we behove, held up by his? torians as monsters of iniquity, to be scorned and lespised by the readers of the tales of their mis? fortunes. The many political oxiles, doomed to ive abroad hythe frequent changes of government in France during the last decade of the 18th cen? tury, were never, as far as we remember, de? barred entrance even into tho best society of Eng? land or Germany, simply because a fanatical rab? ble at homo per eis ted in denominating them trai? tors. If then this is the case in countries where lemocracy and the doctrines of self-government ire as yet scarcely known, with what grace or plea )f consistence can the people of America pursue an >ppoaite course, seeing that rebellion to King ?EOBGE TH was the very foundation stone of this ?tepublic. But do the people of the North really hold such lentiments? Do they bebe ve that rebellion ex? pects the Bum of all the crimes of the decalogue ? )o they believe that the people of the South are itterly devoid of all moral sense ? Do they be ieve that JEFF. DAVIS is no better than a pickpock it, Stonewall JACKSON a Jack Shepard, and General ICE a malefactor ? Do they believe it ? Not one >f them. For private purposes, they may at times .retend to hold such views, but not one can lay his land upon his heart and say truthfully, that such re his sentiments. "Rebellion"-if they will in ist on so calling our late Revolution-cannot do? rade a man of honor, any more than loyalty can nnoble a scoundrel. The one proposition carries rtth it tho other. If Genoral ROBERT E. LEE is a coundrel and a vUlain, then is BENJAMIN F. BUT? ER a soldier and a gentleman, and BROWNLOW a hristian and a gentleman. And in fact we find hat, in obedience to the doctrines of the new civil? isation, BUTLER has been thus ennobled, and noxt 'eek goes to Congress; a representative man of tie new American civilization, to which he owes is nobility. POPE says: "Not all the blood of all lie HOWARDS" can work such a metamorphosis in man of BUTLER'S composition. But POPE wrote ot with nineteenth century light. And BROWN ow is Governor. Treason cannot thus be made odious. Hoiaoi nd disgrace come from within. If a man's heart 3 right and his conscience clear, what recks h? >r the taunts of fools, the jeers of the rabble, nd the spite of those who hate him without caune ? uppo8o every paper in the North should seo fit >r the next six months, to pursue the policy fol )wed by some of them, of abusing General LEE, . nd calling him by vile names, would this degrade 1 im one iota, either in his own estimation, or in I bo eyes of tho world? Character Uko his cannot \ bus bo assailed, or aspersed. And what is true | f him individually, is no leas true of the people of ae South as a whole. Let them be true to thorn elves ; accept the inevitable as becomes men of anse and courage ; quietly pursue their several vocations ; deal justly and honorably toward all len, and ero long the pubbc mind of the North mst chango, and those crazy fanatics must see io base cowardice that characterizes their prs 3nt policy toward us. On thc morning after tho military Rcconstruc- ' on Bill bad passed Congress last week, the Rev. ? ir. BOYNTON, Chaplain of the House of itepresen itives, in his prayer, thanked God that tho Bill ad passed both Houses, and that the Almighty, working through Congress, had "impressed a proper stigma upon rebellion." So the New York Times, a few du; 8 since, com? menting upon Governor ORB'S recent spoeches in this city, says "tho acceptance of Governor OBB'S advice would vindicate the South from the stigma under which it labors. Now what is a stigma? WEBSTER defines it: '. a mark mado with a burning iron, a br md ; any conduct which stains tho purity -or darkens the lustro of reputation." Now to heap gratuitous insult and injury on a defenceless people, and then call it a stigma affixed by tho Almighty, may .be honorable and christian like. It is not for us to say that it is otherwise; we can only regret our ina? bility to see it by the light of Mr. BEECHER'S new civilization. . "The stigma, under which the South labors," as the ?Ym?shas it, is not a mark of disgrace ; it is only imputed dishonor. Thc disgrace, the stig? ma, exists only in the diseased minds of a certain party in the North ; not a trace of it to be seen in the manhood or the womanhood of the South. WANTS.
