CURRENT TOPICS.
NATIONAL ACADEMY or SCIENCES.-Among tho
distinguished sa*ans who assist at thu mooting of
this learned body, now in sossiou at Hartford,
Conn., we noto the presence of our venorablo fel?
low-citizen, Dr. UOLBBOOK, for many yours Pro?
fessor of Anatomy in the Medical Coiiogo of South
Carolina, and tho author of tho only systematic
work on herpetology ever published in this coun?
try. From the correspondence of the Now York
Times, August 15, we have tli9 proco ?dings of tho
socond day, which must have been of groat in?
terest to those capable of appreciating tho higher
sciences. Unfortunately, however, the loamed
mon who take part in the proceedings of such
Conventions usually come to be hoard rather than
to hear, lt is through the published "Transac?
tions," therefore, rather than from personal com?
munion and intercouBe on such occasions that the
domain of science is enlarged. Professor PIXBOE
delivered two lectures on Algebra during tho
morning, and Professor G EBBS read a paper on
Atomicities. "The Significance of Classes m the
Anima.! Kingdom" was the subject of the lecture
by Professor AGASSIZ, who said that OXEN, the
German naturalist, based the classifications of
animals on character, and that he was better ac?
quainted with the significance of a group of ani?
mals than had been shown by his successors. AB
far back as 1811 he had expressed views indicative
of a belief in the existence of classes as the repre?
sentatives of structural ideas. Th?re had been
bnt little advancement beyond that point since
that time. The learned Professor said he had for
many years divided the scaly reptiles and the am?
phibious into two classes. They were distinct in
nature. Classifications he based on nerves, mus?
cle and bones. He had began with those roptiles
which had been divided by BATNVTLLE into reptiles
and batrachia. These classes had features which
were totally different. Professor AGASSIZ said the
animal kingdom was not a mere combination of
fortuitous actions. It was susceptible of a posi?
tive classification in which each group would be
the embodiment of a distinctive i d' a. For thc
present condition of science, however, the subject
was too broad, and could not be fully and clearly
understood. All that he (the speaker) had suc?
ceeded in doing, after many years' investigation,
was to examine a tingle group and glean there?
from a mere glimmer of light, whioh, he believed,
would help investigators hereafter in forming a
correct and comprehensive scheme of classifica?
tion.
IT IS POPULARLY supposed that California has
the biggest trees in the world, but Professor
SWALLOW, of the Missouri Geological Survey,
claims the distinction for his own ?state. He gives
the following actual measurement of big troca in
Southeast Missouri: "The largest is a sycamore in
Mississippi County, sixty-five feet high, which,
two feet above the ground, measures forty-tmeo
feet in circumference. Another sycamore in How?
ard County is thirty-eight and a half feet in diame?
ter. A cypress in Cape Girardeau County, at a
distance of one foot above the ground, measures
twenty-nine feet in circumference. A cotton wood
in Mississippi County measures thirty feet around
at a distance of six feet above the ground. A pe?
can in the same county is eighteen feet in cir?
cumference. A black walnut in Benton county
measures twenty-two feet in circumference.
A white oak in Howard County ia twen?
ty-six feet in circumference. A tulip tree (poplar)
in Cape Girardeau county is thirty feet in circum?
ference. There is a tupelo in Stoddard county
thirty feet in circumference. There is a hack
berry in Howard county eleven feet in circumfer?
ence. A Spanish oak in New Madrid county
twenty-six feet in circumference. A white ash in
Mississippi county is sixteen feet in circumforenco.
A honey locust in Howard county is thirteen feet
round. There is a willow in Pemiscot county that
has grown to the size ef twenty-four feet in cir?
cumference and one hundred feet in height. Mis?
sissippi county boasts of a sassafras that must be
king of that tribe ; it measures nine feet in circum?
ference. There is a persimmon in this
same county nine foot in circumference.
ID the same county is a red bud six feet
in circumference. In Pemiscot > y there is a
dogwood tree six feet in circumference. In Mis?
sissippi county papaws grow to a oirourafarenoe ot
three feet, and grape vines cd trumpet creepers
to a circumference of eighteen to twenty-two
inches,"
i Tarax is som BOPS that the reign of terror has
let up somewhat in Mexico, and that the blood?
thirsty temper, of Esoonxoo toward Americana
and other strangers is not to furnish inspirations
for the government that is to be. An election for
President is shortly to be held, at which JUALEZ,
with real or affected reluctance, consents to be a
candidats. There can be Ut tie doubt aa to his
being retained in office. There was a story that
he would prefer to corns to Washington as- Minis?
ter; but different considerations have probably
Svailed. While affairs are jn their pr?, cat sit?a
i, he is acting with vigor to reestablish order
and prepare the way for permanent peace aad in?
ternal prosperity. He insists on the necessity for
labor, which he tells the Mexicans is the "basis
of social welfare." If he can convert guer?
rillas into industrious agriculturists, he can
work miracles, indeed, and will prove him?
self qualified to lead and rule, by other
evidences than the one of power merely. The
Church property has been ordered' by bim to be
sold. That party, therefore, need expect nothing
from bim. EBOOBXOO puts forth a directly oppo?
site platform to that of JCAKEZ. He believes in
violence and blood. It was his wish mainly that
was conceded to by JUAREZ, iu the disposal of
MAXIMILIAN ; the Mexican President should have
known then ofEsooaxDo's character as well as
now. He could oppose him now with far greater
effect, if he had refused to give him his head then.
MOO-o well represents the bandit element of
what may by favor be styled the Mexican civiliza?
tion. Bobbing, and plundering, and murdering are
the only practices by which he knows how io ex
hibit statesmanship. Mexico is never to be re?
deemed by thal road ; she has been traveling it far
too long already, and it has cost the character of
the nation. All things aro to be made new in that
country, and government on the basis of murder
must disappear.
A OOSBX8PONDENT of the New York Times, giv?
ing an account of the recent Commencement of
the University of Georgia, at Athens, says : The
medals were delivered to the successful sophomore
oratora by Right Eev. Geo. Prracx, Bishop of the
Methodist Episcopal Church, accompanied by an
address on ''Oratory," which illustrated its subject
more happily than any speech I have heard in
some time. From grave to gay, from lively to se?
vere, from smiles and laughter to tears and: back
again to smiles, the learned prelate at his pleasure
led one of the largest and most refined audiences
pr?sent during the exercises.., Hi s address was a
gem of the rare article of which it treated. It is a
long, long time, since opportunity and circum?
stances have allowed me to enjoy as much of a
east of reason and allow of soul as was served up
here during the past week. For some years my
life has been passed among scenes in which intel?
lectual culture, literary refinement, classical at?
tainments, oratory, have had no part. To find
them all combined and engaged in their own estab?
lishment and diffusion, was a treat which I confess
I have relished, and I dwell over the recollection
with a pleasure that I am reluctant to dispel by a
return to the busy haunts of men.
THE LONDON CHUBCH TIMES remarks: "The
truth is, the Catholic party are not satisfied with
the prayer-book, or anything like it; only they do
not care to trouble Camarina. But if the matter
is to be stirred, then they will put in a claim to
have restored to them everything of value that
was lost at the Reformation, and they will never
cease the agitation which their indiscreet oppo?
nents have begun till they have gained what
they wish. Among these things axe the invita
tories, the antiphons to the Psaltor-at least on
the groater holidays; a revised lectionary, fuller
and more varied preces, improved occasional
prayers and thanksgivings, rules for the occur?
rences and concurrences of holidays, moro precise
rules as to vestments, tho ancient introits, the'
ninefold Kyrie, the old graduals, tracts and
sequences, the restoration of the canon to some?
thing like its ancient form, tho omission of the
second part of the words of administration, tho
restoration of the Agnus Dei, weekly celebration,
and a set of votive masses, to say nothing of a
great number of matters of detail."
PENDING THE ARRIVAL of Governor GREEN CLAY
SMITH, the inhabitants of Montana had organized
a militia lo fight the Indians, adopting ARTEMUS
WaBDsplan of organization, viz.: All volunteers
to be Brigadier-General's. The Governor has,
therefore, caused much discontent by his military
eiders reorganizing the commands and consoli?
dating them. "General" THOBOUGBMAN . takes
command, with the rank of Colonel with a field
and staff of two Colonels, one Lieutenant-Colonel,
three Majors, and the proper officers for ten com?
panies. But all the uncommissioned Brigadiers
have faded to come to time, and the impression
prevailed at Helena that the attempt to form a
militia was a failure. Indeed, the necessity for it
wasn t so muon believed to exist after the supply
of ?houlder-etraps became exhausted.

JOB WORK.-We have now completed our
office so as to execute, in the shortest possible
time, ALL KINDS OF JOB WORK, and we
most respectfully ask the patronage of our
friends.
THU REVULSION OF FEELING.
There are some men who live on agitation
the very breath of their nostrils is revolution.
Nothing is so hateful to them as dull hum-drum
peace. They are ''spoiling for a fight," and
if the conditions of combat are too unequal for
a fair battle, they court the crown of martyr?
dom. These men can he found at the North
and at the South-among Radicals and South?
ern Obstructives. But for this class of poli?
ticians and agitators, the Southern States might
ere this have been restored, and once more in
the full enjoyment of equal rights with the re?
maining States of the Union. As it is, we have
had nearly three years of painful and bootless
agitation, and there is great danger in conse?
quence of this continued opposition to recon?
struction, that the end may be far off yet,
though this, we are glad to say, we do not be?
lieve.
The grounds for opposition have varied from
time to time. Now it was because the measures
proposed were alleged to bo unconstitutional;
again, because their requirements were con?
trary to the behests of honor, or contrary to
reason; and, lastly, because by holding off and
practising a Fabian policy we shall strengthen
the hands of the Conservatives at the North,
and be ready to profit by the "revulsion of
feeling," now said to be in progress at the
North. As one of the proofs of the existence
of the latter, we are told that the tone of the
Northern press is "more moderate than it has
ever been before. It deprecates harsh or se?
vere measures, it advocates a restoration of the
Union, abd it shows plainly enough that, al?
though it is not ready to break with the Radi?
cal party, it does feel that the continuance pf
Radical dominion is the continuance of dis?
cord and disunion, the encouragement of revo?
lution, and the continued decline of political
power and commercial prosperity."
This declaration is clearly based upon the
'ate gymnastic feat of the Herald; for the im?
putation i? promptly disowned by the Conser?
vative Republican papers. How much reliance
is to be placed in the political opinions of the
Herald we have already seen. A few weeks
ago it was the most Radical of all the Northern
press; the Tribune even was lectured by WEN?
DELL PHILLIPS and others of his creed, and
told to take the Herald as a model for a truly
loyal paper. A newspaper that is ultra-Radi?
cal one day,- lauding BUTLER, ASHLEY and
THADDEUS STEVENS, and hounding them on to
the impeachment of the President, can scarcely
lay chim to high authority as a political
preacher or prophet, if, on the very next day, it
turns on i's Radical friends, praises the Presi?
dent, and abuses Congress and the negroes; es?
pecially when we consider that all this wonder?
ful change of sentiment appears to have been
effected in the twinkliug of an eye, and with?
out any corresponding change in the conditions
upon which it might be supposed to depend.
The Herald is thoroughly unprincipled and un
I trustworthy; and they who steer their craft by
its light may find themselves lured into danger?
ous reefs, if not dashed against the rocks, in
which event the demon of the Herald would be
the first to commiserate in scornful laughter
with their misfortunes.
A much more reliable paper, one that has
been always conservative, the New York Times,
in a recent article on this "Southern Blunder"
of the expected "Revnlsion of Feeling," is en?
deavoring to correct this mistake. It says:
" 'Tho leading Radioed members' have been over?
borne by more moderato Republicans, because the
fooling predominant in thu party is adverse to
greater severity than is essential to tho comple?
tion of thorough reconstruction. Let it be gene?
rally understood, however, that other and severer
penalties ore necessary to perfect tho work, and
extinguish rebel resistance, and these penalties
will be promptly enacted and sternly enforced. If
confiscation of the estates of rebel landowners be
found necessary, confiscation will be carried. It
has been resisted thus far simply because it has
not appeared indispensable. The same spirit
which led Congress to supplement the very mild
constitutional amendment with the existing lawB,
will compel the adoption of moro Radical schemes,
so soon as the failure of the present law shall be?
come apparent.
"The more friendly tone of the Northern press
admits of a similar interpretotion. That which
the Charleston Mercury hails as a proof of change,
the result of fear, is the effect of a belief that, de?
spite all opposition, the loyal elements in the
South, black and white combined, will prove strong
enough to ensure compliance with the law. This
belief is predicated on observations and reports
akin to those of Senator WILSON, touching the
rapid growth at the South of a disposition to abide
by the law in good faith. We hazard nothing in
Baying that if this belief thus fostered be not veri?
fied-if the anticipations of reconstruction which
have grown up within the last few months bo not
fulfilled-"the public press of the North" will, un?
der tho twin impulses of duty and self-interest,
quickly dispel the delusions cherished by those
who imagine that they may defy Congress and its
laws with impunity.
"We do not accept Mr. HERSCHEL V. JOHNSON as
more than the exponent of a certain class of
Georgia politicians-not of the Southern people;
n Dr do we regard the Charleston Mercury as a rep?
resentative organ of Southern newspaperdom.
Both are noticeable only as indexes of particular
difficulties to be encountered at the South, as well
before as after reconstruction. They are reasons
for making the work thorough, rather than for
despairing of its success."
We believe the object we aim at, restoration
and peace, must be brought about by other
means. We cannot change the temper of the
Northern people, or their opinions on the lead?
ing topics of the present controversy. This is
specially the case as regards the negro. We
arc free to say that we consider the universal
enfranchisement of the negroes a great politi?
cal misfortune, and the reverse of wisdom. But
we believe that we brought this calamity in a
groat degree upon ourselves, and such as it is,
it will remain. The status of the negro is fix?
ed, und will be maintained, do what we will.
If we want peace, we must begin by practis?
ing the virtues of peace, and if we would go
back to the Union, we must do so upon the
terms prescribed by those who have it within
their power to give or to withhold us permis?
sion to do so. We can nover obtain it upon
any other terms. We are not without abun?
dant experience of the effects of the much talk?
ed of revulsion of feeling at the North. Wc
heard much of it before the war. The Hon.
HENRY S. FOOTE, in Richmond, every day for
months during the war, used to look mysteri?
ously wise, and whisper " Eureka "-what ?
Why, the great revulsion of feeling in the
North, and more especially the Northwest.
The iynUfatuus soon fell into merited neglect.
Upon the close of the war it reappeared, as be?
fore, however, only to disappoint its deluded
victims.
We must submit to the terms of the conque
ror,4' there is no reasonable hope of attaining
a permanent peace short of that. Wc cannot
fight ourselves back into the Union, and it is
not probable that wc ?hull accomplish this feat
hy quarrelling. lld i tors awl politicians may
write, speak, or agitate, anti perchance gain
immense applause, us Mr. HILL, in (jeorgin,
seems to have done by his "Notes on the Situ?
ation," and his "Notes on the Notes," now pub?
lishing; but, as we have remarked before, in
our opinion this agitation is fraught with great
hann. Suppose the President were finally vic?
torious in Iiis present struggle with Congress,
an issue exceedingly doubtful, is it probable
that any of the leading features of reconstruc?
tion would be changed ? Negro suffrage, to us
the great stone of offence, is determined upon
in the minds of the Northern people, and we do
not believe that, whichever party gains posses?
sion of the Government during the next Presi?
dential term, there is the least possibility of a
repeal of this provision.
The Richmond Whiff, a few weeks ago, closed
a very sensible leader on this subject with the
following paragraph, which we commend to the
careful perusal of our readers :
"There is no proposition that ingenious minds
cannot support with plausible arguments. There
were wiso men during the war who had infallible
theories for terminating it speedily-with glory to
the Confederates and with ruin and shame to the
Federals. There aro men SB wise now who have
their theories for getting Lick into the Union with
drums beating and colors flying. There were
those during the war who were resolved to die in
the last ditch sooner than give up. We are happy
to know that many of these brave men thought
better of the matter when the crisis came, and are
now in robust health and tolerable spirits. Men
ot ardent natures sometimes say, and really think,
they will do what they afterward conclude it would
be folly to do. There are men and newspapers
who, transported by what they honestly mistake
for patriotic indignation, fancy that they can fool
the Republicans into letting tbe Southern people
into the Union without eating one morsel of the
traditional peck of dirt, and who vow that they
will rot by inches before they will in any degree
humiliate themselves. The cunningest of these
people are waiting in the hope that enough people
will be found to carry the South back into the
Union, without them, so that hereafter, when
things settle down, they may nave it in their pow?
er to say, 'You did what I scorned to do-you be?
trayed the South while I preserved my honor and
my fidelity untarnished. These are the cunning
ones who really want the question settled, but
without their agency. The more honest people
whom they have delnded are in earnest in what
they say about not eating any dirt. But they are
not more honest than w?re those brave men dur?
ing the war who said and thought they would die
before they would give up. These gentlemen, like
them, will come to think better of it and will gradu?
ally come up and submit to their share of the
common humiliation. The course of affairs will
cause them to see ere long that we cannot get our
beloved South out of ber troubles uniera our white
population shall meet the emergency like men of i
sense and do what is required of them. When
they see thu their very honesty will drive them to
the admission that il would be mean and unmanly
to make their brethren bear all of that humiliation
without which the South will never get into the
Union. As General LIE gave up his sword, so
they will have to give up their pride. They will
all come along after a while. They come slowly
and reluctantly, just as they are dragged by the
events of the day. It would be easier and hand?
somer to march promptly up and face the music
without a grimace, a groan, or even a 'squeak.' "
