in Mcculloch and Bandera counties they have re?

The 'Wowan (Texas), of the 16th ult., says: "Al?

sengers, destined for Grimes County, in this State.
They were from Fayette, Coweta, and Merriweath
er Counties, Georgia. Let them come,- we still
have plenty of room." The Civilian says that the
travel on the street cars in that city is increasing,
?ad that the enterprise is a success. "From all
aiuArtera of Texas," says the New Orleans Picay?
une, "our accounts are most favorable as to the
industry and energy of the people in preparing to
*pitch the coming crop.' "
A Western editor, who has been a lawyer, in one
of-his lucid intervals, writes the following: "A
practice; of thirty years in the triounals of
civil and crimina1 justice, has satisfied us that any
man who will wilfully and deliberately tie, for the
purpose of benefiting himself or injuring another,
wifi as readfly swear to that lie. Oaths have been
BO cheapened, by being so universally and unne?
cessarily reqmred, that they have come to have no
sanctity at all. We should just as soon take a
man's testimony without his oath as with it. We
have seen more than a hundred instances of direct
?nd dihberate perjury. As to the moral guilt, the
man vhO attempts to injure another by a He, is
just as guilty as the one who attempts to do it by
perjury."
In the transactions of the Austrian Geographi?
cal 8ociety for 1867, just published at Vienna,
there is an article by Professor GOHLEBT on "The
Population of European Turkey." The author
gives the population of European Turkey (exclud?
ing Bo amarna and Servia) as 10,000,000. Of these
7,000,000 are Christians and the rest Mohamme?
dans, Turks, Albanians, Bulgarians and Bosnians.
The number of Turks proper is 700,000 only? who
chiefly reside in Constantinople (where there are
200,000 of them), in Eastern Bulgaria, in tho
pas had CK of Adnanople, and in some parts of
Thradtt and in Mccedonia. The Slavonians of
Turkey consist ofj 4,000,000 Bulgarians, 1,100,000
Bosnians and Croats, and 400,000 Servians. There
are also L200,'0fj0 Greeks, 1,000,000 Albanians, and
400,000 WaDaohiana. The superficial area of Tur
ftey in ;Snrope is 6520 square miles.

CHARLESTON.
TUESDAY MORNING, MARCH 5, 1867.
ELIGIBLE MEN.
The Richmond Dispatch says on this subject:
"Should the worst happen for this State, and a
portion of our citizens who have served in public
offices be rendered ineligible, it becomes a matter
of interest to consider who are eligible and how
the important offices are likely to be filled. Having
looked about somewhat, wo feel quite cheered to
find so many capable persons still left to take
charge of public afiairs." We think, ourselves,
that when the pfoper time arrives for selection, if
we only manage rightly, thore will bo no want of
j representative men for the State. Wo may be
troubled about Congress, if we ever get the privi?
lege of representation there. We think with tho
Dispalcli, that one advantage which may grow out
of disfranchisement will be the bringing into action
a number of young men, who have both energy
and hope to take the places of some who have little
of either hope or energy. The men we need now
are men of spirit and confidence in their ability to
work out a prosperous future for their country..
OUR SITUATION-A (?LANCE AT HISTO?
RICAL PARALLELS.
The Richmond Whig publishes an editorial with
the above caption, which is so excellent in temper
and sentiment, and so well suited to the present
unfortunate condition of our country, that we re?
produce it below entire, and give it the promi?
nence we think it deserves :
"While we cannot,.if we would, close our eyes to
the gloomy aspect of political affairs, we should
not surrender ourselves to despair. We should, like
sensible men, inquire what we can do to bettor
our condition, and do it candidly, manfully, and
openly. We all know that we cannot fight, and it
is needless, therefore, to talk about fighting. We
can grumble and scold, but who wants manly Vir?
ginians to degenerate into grumblers and scolds ?
We can fold our arms, stand still, and bo swept to
destruction by the torrent we seek passively to re?
sist. We can surrender ourselves to despair, and
doggedly invite fate to do its worst. These are
not remedies for our situation. A few hours will
develop the crisis with more painful distinctness,
and then we will have to determino, and quickly,
upon our line of action.
We avail ourselves of this pause to adores., some
remarks to our readers upon the analogies supplied
by history to our situation, and to draw from them
some useful lessons. Those- who have lived for
successive generations under a peculiar form of
government controlled by themselves, regard the
id aa of revolution with dismay and horror. They
imagine that life will be unendurable under any
other government. We aro just in that situation.
We have but now emerged from a war in which we
were disomfitted, and while the Constitution still
exista in name, we see before us, as in a panorama,
all the stages of rapid revolution. We see States
struck from their spheres, and their very names
blotted out. Instead of States they have become die
tricts-military dis trictd. We see civil law dethron
i ed and martial law substituted in its place. We eee a
white man's government changed into a negro
government. In one word, we see the government
of our fathers passing through a complete revolu?
tion, and with the sole object of subjecting the
Southern people to Northern rule. We see these '
things, and we are filled' with d'smay and horror.
Many fool that life ?B unendurable under such cir?
cumstances, and that it would be bettor to lie
: own and die. Let us not forget that this is not
the first revolution that has occurred in histor}'.
Almost every nation has had its revolutions, and
accompanied by violence and bloodshed. Those
nations survived them, and the people became
prosperous and happy. We have this advantage,
that we have already passed through the most
fearful stage--that of violence and bloodshed. ' In'
this instance, the revolution is culminating, peace?
fully, if painfully, after the war. If we survived
the war, why can we not survive the change of
government ?
Rome was alternately a commonwealth and an
empire. Every change of government was accom?
panied by civil convulsion, slaughter and confis?
cation. These were Pagan days, when pure and
exalted Christian philosophy was unknown, and
when unenlightened reason and,uncurbcd passion
governed men.. Ti those days it was esteemed
honorable in the patriot who failed to throw him?
self upon his sword and die. A few notable ex?
amples of this k-'nd have descended to us in histo?
ry. But honorable as it was esteemed, few i hua
threw away the;r Uves. They preferred making
their peace with their enemies, and living as quiet?
ly and contentedly as they could under the new
government. Tu a few years, the bulk of the peo?
ple became accustomed to it and prospered.
France has been scor-ged by revolutions in
which blood ran R.ko water, and terror palsied the
nation. Old governments were blotted out and
hew governments formed. Violence, bloodshed,
confiscation and barishment were the accompani?
ments of every such revolution. Yet in a few years
France became qriot, and ?,the people prosperous
and contented. But little more than a half century
has elapsed. sr'sce. thel revolution which ended in
?he elevation of -the Corsican prodigy to imperial
power was fo.'?owed by his overthrow at Waterloo,
by the occupation of his capital by rho ai'ies, and
hy the , utter exhaustion and impoverishment of
the French-people; but notwithstanding tfto occur?
rence. *of two, resolutions' since that period, they
are reckoned among the happiest and most pros?
perous people o?' earth.
LoDk at England^ if you wor'd learn what a na?
tion can pasa through and live'.' The Norman con
qest, which occuired about eight hundred years
ago, . threatened universal extinction. A more
ooinple?e subjugation was never known. Domes
?ay book- affords the most complete evidence of ?
the extent to which the Normans possessed them?
selves of the landed property of the country.
Ihis"book embodies the results of a general sur?
rey of the kingdom, and to show thc impatient
and-greedof the conqueror and his followers
his survey, which was ordered by WILLIAM whilo
ieepiug Christmas With his Coi'?i, at Gloucester,
Tas completed by Easter of the following year. So
ninuto was it that the chronicler teHsus " there
vaB not one single hide ot land, no, not even a yard
>f land, which waa not set down." He adds : "Not
sven an ox or a cow, or a swine, that was on the
and was left out of the record." Yet the native
wpulation survived this unexampled subjugation,
?roBpered, and booame in timejneorporated with
heir conquerors. They made the best of their
leplorable situation, and turned everything they
ould to their advantage instead of surrendering
hemselves to despair. That was a revolution
rrought by foreign domination.
England has since undergone internal .-?volu?
ions, accompanied by bloody, cruel and long-con
inuedwars. Tho revolution that culminated in
he execution of the first CHABLEB and the elevation
f CROMWELL to kingly power under the modest ti?
le of Lord Protector, was one that established an
in8paring tyranny over one-half of tho nation, ren
[ering their lives insecure and placing their liber
y and property in peril. CBOMV.ELL died, and
he commonwealth came to an end. The restora
ion of the STU/ BTS involved another revolution,
>y which the enemies of CHARLES tho Second and
ds house were puishod and humbled.
In all these revolutions the full measure of di
aster, degradation, confiscation and punishment
?as meted out to the weaker party. They, no
loubt, felt as wo feel, humiliated and despondent,
mt when they found that rcsistanco was unavail
ag, and opposition only exasperated the prevailing
?arty and incrensed their own burdens, they learned
o reconcile themselves to their situation. They con
eded what they had no longer the power to deny,
nd conformed to the authority they could not suc
e8sfully 8trivo against. Their wives and children
ould not, without criminality, bo sacrificed io
unctdios, and this criminality they wcro not wil
ng to incur. The bulk in all these instances sur
ived tho changes of government, and their pos
?rity are, at this day, aa much and as prosperous
portion of these several nations as if no such
evolutions had occurred.
Let us profit by theso lessons from history and
philosophy, and not Burrendor ourselves to des?
pair, and blindly and foolishly deprive our posteri?
ty of blessings to which they have a claim by'our
Quixotic refusal to make required sacrifices of
pride. We will not bo tlie first or tho last in his?
tory to put in tho plea of all who act under duress
or necessity-'Our poverty, not oar will, con?
sents.' "

"EXCELSIOR"_pi? OT?.
rD2 WATER OF THIS SPRING IS BELIEVED TO
be unequalled by that of any other in the far-famed
valley of Saratoga. Its virtues are such aa have secured
it the h<gh encomiums of aU who have used it, possess?
ing, as it does, in an eminent degree, cathartic; diuretic,
alterative and tonic qualiiio-.1.
From SAMUEL HENBY DICKSON, M D., Professor
Practice of Physic, Jefferson Medical College, Phila?
delphia, formerly of Charleston, S. C.:
PHILADELPHIA, November 15, I860.
I 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 tte several fountains which
boil np along that remarkable valley, dependent indeed,
upon them lor much of the comfort I enjoy, I am satis?
fied that the Excalsior Water is as wall adapted ss any
other among them, if not more to, to the purposes for
which they are generally employed. Ix is very agreeable,
strongly impregnated with the carbonic acid, lively and
sparkling. * * * I can heartily and conscientiously
recommend it to all who need a gentle cathartic and
diuretic. SAMUEL HENBY DICKSON, M. D.
The Water is put up in Pint and Quart bottles, and
packed in good order for shipping, Pints in boxen of
four dozen each, and Quarts in boxes of two dozen each.
