tions) armory at that place was reduced because
"Bur. BXTTLEB is interested in a new breech-loader,
and is determined to feist it upon the Government
and make it supplant the AT.T.TN gun, which actual
service has shown to be an excellent weapon."
A Leipsio bookseller announces that he is about
to publish the works of MAXIMILIAN. They will
form seven volumes, of which four are in the
hands of the printer. The publication is made
by the express desire of the Emperor FBANTIS
JOSEPH.
Several Austrian department secretaries have
been detected in the nice business of selling diplo?
matic documents to foreign papers. The richest
part nf the developments in this affair is the dis?
covery that four-fifths of the dispatches thus sold
were forgeries.
A very marked illustration of the power of im?
agination was given at Portland, Me., the other
day, when several express and truckmen were
overcome and sickened by a supposed stench from
a box containing the neatly carved Indian for some
tobacconist's sign, but what they imagined to be a
coffin oontaining a corps.

The VICOMTE DZ MEAUX has written a volume
upon the Revolution and the Empire. It is
divided into two books, the first of which begins
with 1789, and comes down to the foundation of
'the Empire, and the last ends with the Hun?
dred Days. The point Of view is a royalist one,
though the tone of the work is temperate and im?
partial.
In the University Convocation at Albany, Dr.
Lanni said that physiology should . ? taught in
schools, iso that one could learn what food to eat.
He said "if a scholar cannot resolve a problem
easily, his brain should be strengthened by a good
dish of tripe. The superiority of Scotchmen is
owing to oatmeal, and the degeneracy of tho pres?
ent inhabitants of Massachusetts to th? use of
flue wheat flour."
When a Paris omnibus is full the word " com?
plet" is placed on the rear of the stage. An
American in Paris waa anxious to see all the sights,
and conceded that he could m part accomplish his
purpose by going about in the different omnibuses.
He saw many interesting spots, but states that he
was never able to get to " Complet." That place
must possess superior attractions, though not
spoken of in the guide book, for every omnibus go?
ing there was always fufl."
Of the new monastery to be built at Dubuque,
tb* ?raid says : "The building is to be ot stone,
now being quarried, and when finished will be the
most magnificent and imposing building in the
State. Ita dimensions will be equal to a block of
buildings in the city, with side walls forty feet
high, and on the church a tower two hundred feet
high. In tho oentre of the building will be a court
square of one hundred feet. Tho designs, it car?
ried out, will give Dubuque a monastery some?
thing like the grand old structures of Italy."
A Hew York firm have just completed a very fine
steam fire engine for the Japanese Government,
which will be shipped in the ram HUmewad, re?
cently purchased by the Tycoon. The American
Artizan says : "As this win bo the first steam
fore engine introduced into that country, we can
easily rmfLginft the wonder and astonishment
which will be depicted upon the grave visages of
the sedate Japanese, when for the first time they
witness what effect thia "barbarian" machine can
. The Prince Imperial of Austria is a boy of very
fiery temper, and at a recent juvenile party ho
thrashed the eon of the Prussian Ambassador for
some disparaging remarks respecting Austria
during her recent war. ' The Emperor and Empress
4mWtt& to enter the room while the young Prus?
sian was whimpering, and the scene was promptly
changed- The Empress consoled young WEBTHZB,
dried his tears, and kissed him, while FKANCXS
JOSEPH inflicted a summary castigation on hm im?
petuous scion, tefling brm that it was disgraceful
for him to attack his own guest.
The Natal Caffres of America are in profound
grief. Hard times prevail there, and have caused a
great rise in the pri?e of that indispensable com?
modity to a Caffre as to every one else-a wife.
Heretofore the matrimonially inclined Caffre could
buy a wife for the moderate price of ten cows
cows being the Caffre "greenbacks," and a legal
tender at NataL POT fifteen cows he could secure
the best girl in the village. Now, however, owing
lo a scarcity, the price of the most ordinary wives
>?S risen to twenty cows, and. above that m "pro?
portion to the deairablf ^l^oter of the article.
Henee the grief of the Caffres,
Ira Aldridge, the celebrated negro tragedia Q"
died on Saturday last during a processional tour
In Poland. He was a native of Marv Land; picked
np the shipbuilding whens boy,'and attracted the
notice of EDMUND KEAN during the tour of the
latter in this country forty years ago. He accom?
panied the great actor .to Europe as a body ser?
vant, manifested considerable theatrical genius,
sad went on the stage. The prejudices of color
wera too strong for huh to succeed in this coun?
try, but he was popular in Europe. He waa en?
gaged to appear at the Academy of Music, in New
York, during the month of September. He was
fifty-seven years of age when he died.
The burning well at Petrolia, in Canada, was a
marvel to the spectators.' After many hours of
labor, the flames % *xe extinguished. The Beposi
tor says: "The magnitude of the flow of oil now
became apparent, and such a rill of pars oil issuing
from the ground and Ailing all the ditches around,
had never before been seen in this locality. The
production was estimated to be from one to two
thousand barrels in 24 ho ors; in this manner it
zan to waste for about 48 hours after the fire was
extinguished, when it ceased in consequence of
the bore becoming choked with dirt. Machinery
is now in process of erection for the purpose of
casing and tubing.
Letters from France state that the south of that
empire will scarcely meet the requirements of its
consumption. In the centre of France the wheat
eazs are light, and their quantity is not so consid?
erable as it had been hoped and supposed to be at
the moment of flowering. In tho cist of France
merchants are concluding for contracts for wheat
from Germany, and especially from Hungary. Tho
North of France is somewhat divided in its esti?
mates %s to its crops. The French provincial mar?
kets have i ison thu week one franc to two francs
per quintal; at Marseilles there have been large
transactions at an advance of two francs; an up?
ward movement has also been observed at Bor?
deaux, Nantes, Havre and Dunkirk.
The machinery of the New York Watch Compa?
ny, destined for their works in Springfield, Mass.,
approaches completion at the Company's machine
shop st Providence, R. L, and there is little doubt
that the manufacture, of watches will begin in
Springfield early in September. The works will
give employment at first to one hundred and fifty
persons, all but twenty-five or thirty of whom will
he girls, the excepted cl&aa being workmen skilled
in the business. The Company will eventually
make ten or twelve different styles of'watches,
and expect by-and-by to enlarge their factory till
it equals in capacity any other in the country.
They will make no watch cases, but merely the
movements, which will be wholesale to the trade.
The Company will have a capital of 1500,000, of
which $850,000 is already subscribed.
A curious illustration of JOHN BULL'S want of
confidence in the honesty of his countrymen is.
given in the account of the precautions it was
thought necessary to use in connection withs
recent royal banquet in England. One of the
young Princes of England gave a dinner, in his
own "room," to the Belgian officers of the Rifle
Association, lately the guests of the nation; and
being sparingly provided with the means of hos?
pitality, was obliged to borrow' a large amount of
piste from the jewellers. The value of this plate
iras ?25,000, and it was lent by TtvnmnK and other
'00mwt silversmith*. The question was how to
preserve it. The matter was effected by having
the company waited upon by detectives dressed
np as waiters. Nearly every attendant was a po
officer in disguise.
CURRENT TOPICS.
EYES SINCE GENERAL SICKLES bas boon placed
in command of this Department, his detractors
everywhere, from all kinds of motives, have in?
vented slanders and libels against him of every
shade and form. Generally these stories have only
had currency iu obscuro and irresponsible shoots
hke the Metropolitan Record, the La Crosso Demo?
crat, and tho like ; and the respectable press, os
also tho personal friends of General SICKLES, have
hitherto deemed it beneath thom to notico thoso
malicious libels, and impotently spiteful assaults.
But now, to oui- surprise, we fiud the National In?
digence?, for private reasons of its own, copy and
pretendi? believo one of these foolish stories,
which it copies "from a Northern paper." It
os follows : " lu Charleston, OB hero,
?smoking is prohibited in the street cars.
General SICKLES recently condescended to
ride with ordinary folks in tho street cars, but he
I forgot to observe the rule, " no smoking permit
! ted." The conductor called his attention to the
I fact; "What did you observe?" said tho General.
{I morely desired to inform you," said the man,
in the blandest mannor posible, " that passengers
are not allowed to smoke in tho cars. It is con?
trary to the rules." " Ah indoed," roplied the
great man, taking out his watch with the utmost
nonchalance. "Indeed! TheD you shall consider
the rules suspended for the next half hour." ' 'But
that was a pleasantry," remarks the InleVigen
cer, " those who wero present must have laughed,
for among them some doubtless were of the class
who always see the magnate's joke, and who then
would have dared frown ?" Now wo have it upon
undoubted authority that there must be some mis?
take in this matter; for in the first place, General
SICKLES has never been inside one of our street
cars, since ho has been in the city. If this first
reason is not satisfactory to any of our readers,
near or distant, we will at the first practicable op?
portunity, resumo the subject, and present other
reasons, why we behove the whole story a malicious
fabrication.
THE WASHINGTON CHBONICLE says: "Tho simul?
taneous illumination of the rotunda; dome and
tholus, by Professor G A EDIN EB's electrical appa?
ratus, on Saturday night, was witnessed-by a largo
assemblage, and proved a brilliant success, not a
single burner of the thirteen hundred failing to bo
ignited. One hundred and twenty-eight addition?
al burners, supported by handsome bronze brack?
ets, have been placed over tho largo paintings in
the rotunda, which presents a bettor appearance
than by the light of day. A large number of per?
sons had assembled previous to tho illumination,
and when, upon a given signal, tho bi Ul ian t gos
jets, from their hundreds of burners, simultane?
ously burst into full blaze, bringing out in strong
relief the lights and shades of BBUHADI'B magnifi?
cent allegorical painting in tho dome, tho pictures
in the rotunda, and every niche or projection of j
the architecture, the enthusiasm 'of tho throng
betrayed itself iu a sudden burst of applauso and
expressions of admiration. Tho illumination was
continued for an hour or more, during which thoso
present devoted tho time to an examination of tho
paintings, and in discussing the wonders of elec?
tricity. Not a few visited Professor GAUDES-EE'S
laboratory, where they inspected the elegant gas
lighting apparatus constructed for the Paris Ex?
position. This apparatus, showing the difierent
modes by which street lamps, public buildings and
private residences can be lighted, is a marvellous
instrument, and is adapted to light any number of |
burners, turning on the gas and igniting it at tho
same time. The circular hall in the passago be?
tween the rotunda and tho Senate chamber, which
heretofore has been but insufficiently lighted, is
now illuminated from tho roof by a circlo of gas
jets, with reflectors, tho whole having been put up
under Professor GARDINER'S supervision, and the
burner* being lighted by electricity, in common
with those in the rotunda.
JOHN MCDONOUGH, the millionaire of New Or?
leans, has engraved upon his tomb a series of |
maxims he had prescribed as the rule for his
guidance through life, and to which his success
in business is mainly attributed. They contain
so much wisdom that we copy them: "BULES
FOB THE GUIDANCE OF MY LIFE, 1804.-Remem?
ber always that labor is one of tho conditions
of our existence. Time is gold; throw not
one minute away, but place each one to account.
Do unto all men as you would bo done by. Never
put off till .to-morrow what can be done to-day.
Never bid another do what you can do yourself.
Never covet what is not your own. Never think
any matter so trifling as not to deserve no?
tice. Never give out that which does not
first come in. Never spend but to produce. Let tho
greatest order regulate the transactions of your
life. Study, in your course of Ufe, to do the great?
est amount of good. Deprive yourself of nothing
necessary to your comfort, but Uve in an honora?
ble simplicity. Labor, then to the lost moment of
your existence. Pursue strictly the above rules,
and the Divine blessing aud riches of o very kind
will flow upon you to your heart's content; but first
of all, remember that the chief and great duty of
of your Ufe should be to tend, by all means in your
power, to the honor and glory of our Divine Crea
ator. The conclusion to which I have arrived at
is, that without temperance there is no health;
without virtue no order; without religion no hap?
piness, and that tho aim of our being is to Uve
wisely, soberly and righteously.
THE GERMANS IN HANOVER and Frankfort are
not yet M reconstructed." They do not take kindly
to Prussic acid. Our European advices state that
on the 16th of July, the anniversary of the entrance
of the Prussians into Frankfort, oU the ladies of
the city wore mourning. The Prussian Govern?
ment, whioh knows what largo results may follow
from trifling causes, has just confiscated aU tho
maps in Hanover upon which that kingdom is
laid off with ita primitive boundary. They havo
likewise seized the plates, and broken thom, so
that no moire shall be printed. BISMARCK wiU
not permit the existence of Hanover even on paper.
A cornie paper at Munich gets off tho following
apropos of this topic : As the daisy of the meadow
represents a white and yellow cockade-an ' ' anti
Prussian demonstration," and may provoke a con?
tinuous spirit of disloyalty, all Hanoverian pro?
prietors are ordered to mow their meadows within
eight days, under penalty of confiscation. They
shall likewise remove from the roads and the gar?
dens on their properties all the daisies which may
be found there, otherwise these said daisies will
be considered as seditious cockades, and the pro?
prietor and his wife shall answer before a justice
for this breach of the laws of Prussia, which do
not permit God to create flowers of tho Guelph
colors.
WHEN MI*. BARNUM instituted his famous prize
baby-show he was thought to have started a novel
and original idea. But it seems he only followed
an illustrious example, slightly modified and en?
larged to suit the circumstances. Queen VICTO?
RIA has long, it appears, been prompted by her
motherly heart to bestow a pecuniary prizo upon
such of her servants asare blessed by bountiful
nature with especial fruitfulness in childbearing.
The amount or this royal offering is duly propor?
tioned to the fecundity displayed; at tho rate of
one pound per baby, according to the last in?
stance, which is thus reported in an English pa?
per : "The Queen has sent her usual bounty of
three pounds to the wife of ANDREW CASSELS,
ploughman at Balfark, on tho Balbiruie estate,
who the other day had throe daughters at a
birth." The good Queen is, perhaps, unconscious?
ly a sharer in tho opinion! of tho first NAPOLEON,
who was wont to say that the greatest woman in
France was she who had horne tho most children.
The charity, however, is a worthy one, and credi?
table to tho maternal sympathies of her Majesty.
AN ENGLISH medical paper says: "The last freak
of fashion is to give the coup de grace to thc pearl
powdor, white lend and rouge that havo so long
reigned. Even bolladonna is fto bo discarded, and
'golden' hair w?l shortly be as raro as tho real au?
burn tint of nature, if not stiU rarer. The decree
has gone forth for black hair and bronzo com?
plexions, and these will, do doubt, shortly crowd
the parks. How thoy are produced is the only
question that need concern us. The destructivo
nature of tho chemical agents usuahy employed
for dyeiDg tho har black is woll known. To give
a lady of fashion the complexion of a gypsey,
nothing is needed but a little walnut juice, and wo
have reason to know that this has already found
its way to the toilet table. It has at least tho
negativo merit of not being so dangerous as som o
of the poisonous cosmetics that havo preceded it.
Whether a dirty face will long he tho rage it would
bo rash to predict."
Col. FOBNEI writes to tho Philadelphia Press :
" Nothing escapes the French passion for the arti?
ficial-not even death. The loveliest lorms of
nature aro mado grotesque, and the graveyard is
invaded by curious dramatic inventions. If you
visit Pere le Chaise, the chief cemetery of Parij,
you find the tomb of RACHEL, the aotress, covered
with the cards of daily visitors ; and the railing
round the base of tho great monument in the
Place Vendome, erected to NAPOLEON the First,
embossed with the names of his veterans and
his victories, is hung with garlands of immor?
ales, some of which are made of wire, as if to
last forever,"

CHARLESTON.
THURSDAY MORNING, AUGUST 15,. 1867.
JOB WORK.-We have now completed our
office so as to execute, in tho shortest possible
timo, ALL KINDS OF JOB WORK, and we
most respectfully ask tho patronage of our
friends.
POLITICAL SENTIMENTALISM.
Wo would fain belicvo that thoso sentimental
I persons who would thoughtless!v entice us all to
I ruin by thoir invocations of honor and heroism,
will havo thoir trouble for nothing. Human life is
short enough at best, our burdens many, our en?
joyments comparatively few. It is poor policy to
seek needlessly and in a mock heroic spirit to
multiply those burdons and diminisli thoso enjoy?
ments. Tho poetical eye may discern attrac?
tions in self-imposed martyrdom and volun?
tary death. But all men are not poots.
They shudder when tho skeleton appears before
them, and recoil with horror from the crown of
thorns, from tho stake, aud from the flames.
These horrors are not to bo Bought. Tho man of |
sound and healthy mind would not dio bofore his
time. He feels Uiat the honors of martyrdom,
which ho cannot enjoy after death, will not com?
pensate for the sacrifice of Heaven's blossings
which he can enjoy. Martyrdom ia bad enough
when demanded by conscienco aud religion, by
duty and patriotism-but unnecessary martyrdom
is Huicide.
We who have suffered as no peoplo havo suffered
in our day; who have lost the flower of our youth,
and many of the noblest and most gifted of our
leaders; who have lost our political rights, all of
our currency, a large share of our property, and
are crushed to tho earth by tho weight of our
afflictions, are appealed to in the name of poetry
to pursue a course which will result in tho sacri?
fice of tho littlo that is left. Wo lived pootry and
history for four years. Our inspirations wore all
drawn from the tragic muse. Tho Southern peo?
ple have exhausted all tho resources of poetry and
fulfilled to the lettor all of its demands. It is time
for us to tum our attention to plain, solid prose.
We aro for reconstruction, restoration, and the re?
demption of our State. Wo will attend to poetry
after those grave and great duties, are discharged.
LET US AVOID EXCITEMENT AND
STRIPE.
! Reconstruction, after such complete dislocation
and derangement as tho war produced, must ne?
cessarily provo a difficult process. Whatever our
wishes may be in tho South,it would scarcely be
reasonable to expect the dominant party to recon?
struct the State Governments on tho ante bellum
basia. It would bo quite as unreasonable to ex?
pect that party to allow Confedoi ate men or Con?
federate sentiments to gain the ascendancy under
tho now order of things. But, whether reasona?
ble or unreasonable, tho fact must be plain to all
that it is the fixed purpose of ibo Republican party
not to allow this. Their policy of reconstruction
is determined upon, and it is that it shall be con?
summated in the interest of Unionism. The ques?
tion, then, for ns to decide is, whether wo ah all j
array ourselvos against that party aud its policy,
or bold back, doing nothing, or cooperate in the
work of reconstruction so as to got back into our
practical relations with the Government, and thus
be enabled to resumo the management of our do?
mestic affairs, be relieved from tho terrors of con?
fiscation, and bo placed in a situation to develop
and turn to profitable account tho resources of the
State.
While wo have no quarrol with thoso who hold
different views, wo favor the policy of "co-opera?
tion" as the only policy that promises repose. Wo
maintain that points of honor were settled by the
war, and that the only questions now remaining
relate to expediency. If wo had choice, there aro
many things we would not do, which necessity now
impels us to do. A stronger power has entered
our house and bound us, and we must obey his
will. It is vain to attempt resistance, for we would
thereby only aggravate our miseries.
Theso are our sentiments. Others think differ?
ently and proposo to act differently. They have
tho same right to thoir opinions that we have to
ours. Nor do we claim all the honor and honesty.
We think they are in error, and that they are load?
ing others into error-fearful error, that thoy will
repent of in sack-cloth and ashes, and when too
late.
CONOVER.
When Doctor FAUSTUS sold his soul to Ibo ovil
one, he not only made a inistako as to a principio,
but he exposed himself to a groat personal incon?
venience. MEpmsTornu.Es was always at .hand,
jogging his elbow or threatening him with expo?
sure. As with : ?ales, so with purchases. They
are sometimos vory troublesome. Wo romember
to have heard a shrewd friend of ours say that
once, out West, he owned a judge and he found it
a very poor investment. When HOLT and STANTON
bought SANFORD CONOVER, they mado a profitless
purchase-for from lime to time ho stands grimly
in their presence, and Uko the ghost of a better
man, will not "down at thoir bidding." CONOVER
has recently reappeared in a very ghastly form.
A more atrocious scheme of villainy, perjury,
and subornation of perjury, than this never was
devised. If there is any competent officer of jus?
tice in tho District of Columbia, there should not
be a moment's hesitation on this evidenco in initi?
ating a prosecution for conspiracy against ASH?
LEY, HOLT, BUTLEB, MATCHET and CONOVER. It
would be a striking spectacle to havo tho impeach?
ers indicted, and an Executive requisition on Mas?
sachusetts and Ohio for BUTLEB. and ASHLEY as
fugitives from justice. There is no difficulty as to
HOLT, who is on the spot and can be taken at any
time. CONOVER, also, is on hand.
HOLT especially cherished him. Ho manufac?
tured witnosses then, just as he says he has been
asked to do lately. Then carno tho catastrophe.
His confederates (we do not mean HOLT alone)
turned against him. He was exposed, tried, con?
victed and sentenced to penal servitude for per?
jury. No doubt he was guilty-no doubt he de?
served all he got-but it don't lio in the mooth of
his friend, Mr. JOSEPH HOLT, to say so. Nor docs
he. He has a kind feeling toward CONOVER. He
did not want to make him desperate. Ho was Uko
GILBERT GLOSSIN with the murderer and smug?
gler, in GUY MANNEBING (abs?l omen), and accor?
dingly wo find that no sooner is CONOVER finally
sentenced, and tho Albany Penitentiary
yawning to receive him, than HOLT hoists a friend?
ly signal and recommends this doublo-dyed villain
for a pardon. It was a beautiful tercetl, this inter?
cession for CONOVER. ASHLEY begins piano. "I
think Mr. DUNHAM (mark the Mr..') ia clearly en?
titled to a pardon." Thou follows RIDDLE cres?
cendo, "It seems tome that for his services (1) the
Government should mark its appreciation of them
iu a way not to bo mistaken." Lastly comos HOLT
con forza-stronger than them all. Thus ho de?
scribes the pcijured CONOVER, tho liar whom he
had himsolf convicted : "His services seom to
have boen performed in tho interest of TBUTH and
justice, and his disclosures should bo accepted as
proof of his repentance, and as au atonement to
the law." Ono shudders at tho thought of him
who writes thoso words, and him of whom they
are written. The dead riso up and gibber at thom.
Now here let us, for a moment, pauso on a fea?
ture of this dark transaction which, perhaps, has
not attracted casual attention. Lot it bo remem?
bered that tho attempt of ASHLEY and his con?
federate to persuade tho President to pardon
CONOVER, was made when they thought he could
bo iuducod to implicate Mr. JOHNSON in (he mur?
der of LINCOLN. In plain English they ask tho
President by his pardon to restore competency to
a witness who has promised them to perjuro him?
self anew and to testify against his bene?
factor. CONOVER; is to go boforo the Im?
peachment Committee to swear away the
character of tho President with the
President's pardon in his band. Such a par?
don would have been a great endorsement. It
would have been what we believe lawyers call an
estople. Teste meipso to SANFORD CONOVER'S
"truth," ANDREW JOHNSON could not have said a
word against him. Happily for himself, happily
for tho country, more happily for the cause of jus
tico, tho President cscapod this pitfall, anil tho
consequence thus far is that a now conspiracy is
baffled. It is a subject of vost interest, of which
we have presented but one phase. There are
others quite as interesting. In tho meantime,
CONOVER goes to Albany and HOLT is at large in
Washington.

I have been fora year or more past in the Imbi t ot
taking the water of the "Excelsior" Spring of Saratoga.,
Accustomed during tho great portioa of my invalid hia?
to use tho different waters of the several fountains whic'u
boil up alon, : that remarkable valley, dependent inde e<]|
upon them tor much of the comfort I enjoy, I am 'satis?
fied that the Excelsior Water is as well adapted as any
other among; them, ii not moro so, to the purr,0srStj?.
which they a rc generally employed. It is very 'agreeable,
strongly imp regnated with the carbonic acid, lively and
sparkling. . * * I can heartily and cor^cicuiiousiy
recommend it to all who needs gentle ca thur Lie and
