NAPOLEON UL, well known to be great as an
artillerist, has iuvented a fowling-piece of wonder?
ful power. In using i* '.here is no need of taking
sight, a simple leveling of tho gun insuring the
certain destruction of the bird which has risen,
and making it dangerous for those which still lie
perdu. The workmen employed in making this
extraordinary weapon aro locked up night and day
lest they should reveal the secrets of its construc?
tion. L. N. evidently aspires to a higher notch
t han the Admirable CRICHTON occupied.
It is stated in the Hagerstown Herald that the
Governor and his staff of New York, the Governor
and his staff of Connecticut, the Governor and his
staff of Maryland, and the Mayor and City Council
of Chicago, have accepted invitations extended
them to be present at the dedication of Antietam
Cemetary on the 17th instant. It is expected that
the President of the United States and heads of
departments will also be present. Ex-Governor
BRADFORD, of Maryland, will deliver the oration,
Ex-Governor C?BTTN, of Pennsylvania, who was
first selected, having declined on account of ill
health.
On Wednesday last, the 28th inst., JOHN
McGarzB and CHABLIS KINNEY, of Kelly Island,
near Sandusky, swam a race in Lake Erie, from
Kelly's Island toward the main land at Marble
Head, distance four miles and a half. When they
bad swam three miles Ka... NEY was so far behind
that ho gave up and got into a boat. MCGREER
kept on and reached Marble Head in just two
hours and a half, making the entire distance with?
out halt or rest. He smoked, chewed tobacco,
drank wine and tung songs on the way, and at the
end seemed very little fatigued. This is the most
remarkable swimming feat on record.
It is given out that CHARLES SUMNER has ad?
dressed a letter to an important personage here
earnestly warning the Radicals against GRANT.
The letter charges duplicity and conservatism
upon the General, and hurls several Latin and
Greek denunciations at his head for his abetting
the displacement of STANTON by accepting tho
Secretaryship. GRANT is said to be exceedingly
annoyed at tho insinuations of SCSINER and GREE?
LEY, and in consequence of the Tribune's impu?
dent assaults upon him, cherishes an antipathy
toward all newspaper men, which has proved
fatal to the enterprise of the correspondents who
hare within a few dayj had occasion to visit
him.
The Honolulu Advertiser, speaking of Lieut.
BROOKE'S soundings between San Francisco and
the Sandwich Islands, says : "About three hun?
dred miles weat of the Golden Gate he found a
submarine range of mountains, running parallel
with the Sierra Nevada range, the depth of water
on which was about two miles on an average,
while the lowest depth reached did not exceed
three miles. The project of an ocean telegraph
between Europe and America had been then talk?
ed of, and Lieutenant Brooke had sounded the
route. He said, while here in 1858, that there
would be vastly less difficulty in laying down a | ]
cable between these islands and the California
coast than between Ireland and Newfoundland. t
It is stated that a radical change in the manner j
of collecting the whiskey revenue tax will be re- j
commended at the next session of Congress, em?
bracing a proposition to dispense with the offices
of inspectors, detectives, ?xe., and providing that
each whiskey still shall be taxed to the amount of
its capacity. An inspector or gauger of stills will j j
be ordered to measure their capacity, after which
the proprietor can obtain from the collector of the
district a license to run them for a week, month | ]
or year, as they choose to select, which license
must be paid for in advance. The cost of the | j
changed license will, of course, amount to the
present tax on the manufactured article. It is
believed that by this method the government will
be enabled1 to collect ten times as much tax as it
now does, and will at the same time protect honest
distillers.
An English paper says.- The disappearance of
all the four moons of Jupiter on Wednesday night
proved an object of attraction to all astronomers,
because of the rarity of the pnenomenon. From
the number of clouds about, the evening proved
very unfavorable. At Twickenham Observatory,
Mr. J. R. HIND, watched for the disappearance of
each moon, but did not see the phenomenon in
any single instance. Several times after the moons
had disappeared, Jupiter was seen apparent?
ly without his satellites, through openings in the
clouds, the great length of time the disappearance
lasted, apparently from 10:04 P. M. to 11:49 P. M.,
favoring observers in this respect. When tho
phenomenon was previously seen, on the 27th
September, 1843, Jupiter appeared without satel?
lites only from 11:53 P. M. to 1228 A. M.
The Parts Magazine amuses its readers with a
discourse on soap, and especially the famous Mar?
seilles soap, which defies adulteration. This kind
is made in cubical cakes, whose foundation color
of white or yellow is varied by lines of pale or
bright blue. Theso veins aro made by tho addi?
tion in the 6oap-boilcr of some sulphate of iron for
the pale blue or peroxide of iron for the brighter
color. (This is the'statement of the Paris Maga?
zine.) These substances being extremely heavy,
can only remain in suspension in the soap if that .
is of a certain consistency. If a dishonest manu- 1
facturer attempts to add too much water the '
minerals sinK to the bottom, and the soap ia not I
marbled. 8o theso veiniugs are the freak of no
fancy on the part of tho manufacturer, but the I 1
eertiflcate of good quality to the washerwomen,
who accordingly prize them highly.
The Paris exhibition palace is announced for
sale, and all the constructions of that marvelous
park with it. It seems to have been of little use
to have made so much effort to describe it, now
that it is to be torn to pieces and sold to the
highest bidder as BO mnch oki material flt only for
firewood. The minister of war demands that by
tbe first of Januaryaiext every vestage of the great
exhibition shall havo disappeared, and that the
army may enter into possession again of their lit?
tle miniature desert of Sahara, lt appears that
the old officers pine after this desert waste of sand,
because it recalls tho exploits of their youth, and
the arid country in which they gainod their lau?
rels and their promotion. So this little consola?
tion, ihiB little souvenir of Anica's sandy plains, is
to be restored to them, and every souvenir of the
grand exhibition, with its mountains of curious
and instructive things, are to be 87,opt away as
completely as if they had never existed.
The following facts in relation to the money
order department of thc postal service are inter?
esting, showing, as they do, the rapidity with
which business has increased. The system was
begun on the first of November, 18o4, when one
hundred and forty offices were oponed. By tho
80th of June, 1865, $1,360,122had been transmitted,
the revenue paid to the department amounting
to $11 534. lu J866 the number of offices was in?
creased to lour hundred and seventy-three, and tho
amount of business done reached $3,977,259. Tho
revenue was $35,779. During the fiscal year end?
ing June .10th, the number of offices was seven
hundred and sixty-seven, except in the last quar?
ter of the fiscal year, when sixty-eight more were
added. During the last year the experiment paid
all expenses, and left a surplus in the hands of the
government, lt is estimated that the business
amounted to $10,000,000. Daring the present year i
four hundred more postal offices will be put in op- lc
?ration, making a total of one thousand two bun- w
aired and thirty-five, H
CURRENT TOPIC?.
JUDGE DAWSON A. WALKER, ol tho Georgia Su?
preme Court, ha? written a letter, in which, after
statine; that, since tho dosi- or tho war, he bad
invariably advocated the acceptance of the terms
of Reconstruction proposed by Congress, ho says :
'.These are views I entertained and expressed
prior to the passage of the Supplemental Dills,
and I entertain them still. 1 have in my quiet
wav endeavored to disseminate them, believing
that the course indicated ts for tho best interests
of our whole people. Our people tried to adjust
these difficulties, under tho Presidential plan,
v^fthout .ucess. Our Governor applied t<> the
Supreme Court of tho United States to sta) the ex?
ecution of the unconstitutiouil acts o? Congress,
and WUK told that tho Court luis no jurisdiction of
tho question. The Executive an?! Judicial Depart?
ments ol thc Government having been applied to in
vain, it would seem to be the part of wisdom to make
the best possible terms with the Legislative Depart?
ment. Congress represents the people of tlie North,
and has shown (hat ii has both the power and tho
will to cont i ol the v dole quest ion of Reconstruction.
Wo now undera'... : i what is required of us as
conditions preiv.l . u to oui full restoration
to our posilion in the Union and tho protection of
tho constitution. I think we should promptly ac?
cept the terms proposed, and reuder the Military
BUI '-inoperative in said State." AU who are al?
lowed a voto should vote "l'or a convention." and
tho best mon they can get as delegates to that
convention, "who will appreciate our condition
and do tor us the best that circumstances sur
romiding them at the time will permit." Dy pur?
suing this course, our political affairs will soon be
quiet, capital and skilled labor will come into our
State, and ere long Georgia will again l>e properly
designated as an "Empire Slate." Our people,
thus becoming prosperous, will havo thu means to
reward labor as it deserves, and they will cheer?
fully do so. They can establish a system which
will enable our active population to receive tho
benefit of a common r?hool education. Such
would be a "consummation devoutly to be wish?
ed." I hope the time is not far distant when every
citizen of Georgia will possess the means of pro?
curing the rudiments ol a good English ?ducation.
li is the duty of the whites to facilitate tho educa?
tion of the colored ; and the duty ol' all is to cul?
tivate relations of amity and friendship, as neigh?
bors having a common interest and a common
destiny. The legislation which will benefit tho
white man wdl benefit the colored, and vice versa.
By acting upon the true theory that wo aro all ono
people iu interest, peaco and harmony will prevail,
tho laborer will bo amply rewarded for his toils,
.nd the country will be prosperous and happy.
THE SAN FRANCISCO Bulletin says : "Consider?
able attention has boen given of late to the climatic
changes consequent upon tloiiudititr forests. In a
recent pioneer address, delivorcd in this city, tho
speaker mentioned the noblo rci-woods which
could be seen from thiB point a few years ago, cov?
ering the hills in the rear of Oakland. Not a tree
is left, and the hills present an cxcedingly bald
and barran aspect, lt is also certain that there is
not now sufficient moisturo concentrated on these
hills to germinate a now rod-wood forest. Tho
Coast Range is being rapidly stripped of red-wood
trees, and naturo, bafflod iu its work of restora?
tion by fire and drought, lets the vcrduro-clad h?ls
go back to barrenness. It is a rare thing to lind a
new red-wood forest springing up anywhere. The
impiovident axeman slashes away right and left
the annual fires follow, spreading over miles of ter?
ritory, and thus the young red-woods aro killed off.
In 50 years wo shall nave finished up the red-wood
forests now confined to a narrow strip of thc coast
range. The effect of this wholesale destruction and
waste of forests is alroady beginning to bo seen
in the climatic changes which follow. Less mois?
ture is concentrated on tho hills which havo been
stripped. Tho redwood will not grow without ex?
tra moisture, and when loft concentrates it as a
necessary condition of its existence. Tho present
summer has been a singularly dry one in tho
ooast range. Years ago it was held that annual
crops, such as wheat and barley, would mature in
?ioso localities even if not h drop of rain fell du?
ring tho whole season. Ami during the dry est
winter we have yet known, so great was tho mois?
ture in the spring and summer ? idowiiig that ex?
cellent crops wero raised all along thu toase
range, while the same crops wore a completo faU
ure in tho interior valleys. But this year, not?
withstanding the heavy rains of tho winter, tho
ate sown crops in the coast rango wore pretty
aear a failure. The hills were singularly dry all
the spring and early summer. Whoever has pass?
ed along one of these mountain ranges in midsum?
mer, and has watched the drippings of the trees
in tho morning, could not fail to notice tho impoi
;ant office they fulfil in saving a country from
Ironght and consequent barrenness."
UHDA?NTED nr a hundred failures, from the
lays of PARRY and WRANGLE and SCORESBY and
FRANKLIN to those of our own KANE and HAYES, a
lociety of fifty well-known Frenchmen aro going
a make a uew effort to reach the North Pole. A
graduate of the Polytechnic School, young M.
LAUBERT, is tho enthusiastic adventurer, for
ffhosc outfit 25,000 francs are to be raised. The
mrious point ie that M. LAMBERT is going to
:ssay a " route never before tried." This route
?ve can hardly figure to ourselves, as tho couimon
y received maps of high latitudes aro crossed in '
jvery direction with the hues which represent the '
keel-tracks of exploring ships. But tho spirit of
Polar adventure is ono to bo encouraged, not so I
much for what may bo found M on tho Pole," as
(or collateral scientific jesuits. Let us hope that
the French expedition will go better equipped than
those our own country has sent. Everything, as
experience shows, depends on previous prepara?
tion. Two excellont irou steamers ought to ac?
company every such expedition. Dr. HAYES went
IL a single wooden sohooner, lacking many things;
and his book records how fai short he fell of his
object. The Russian Government havo, wo bo
lieve, an expedition preparing under lmporial
auspices, from which much may be hoped. Hero
is a fine chance for a match between France and
Russia, with the North Pole as both stakes and goal.
IT IS NOT so surprising that there is such an
uni versal loss of art in Paris, when we read of the
growth of schools of design in that city. Lu the
year 1S62 tho city inscribed upon its annual budget
of subvention tho sum of 30,000 francs for the dif?
ferent classes of design which in all had but 2888
pupils. This yoor the sum of 312,000 li anes has
been devoted to this important branch ot educa?
tion, and not less than 9000 scholars havo boon
found worthy of profiting by tho opportunities
afforded them. Within tho past four years moro
than 800,000 francs has been expended upon this
organization. It bas distributed 32,500 examples
af design, which havo proceeded from both tho
primary schools and thc classes of adults. At tho
present time sixty clas?cs of design are in opera?
tion during tho day in the boys' primary schools,
md classes are being opened in the primary
schools for girls. Thirty-two night schools for
idttlts aro open, seven supported for and devoted
to men, receive thc pupils sent by the city authori?
ses ; twenty schools supported for and reserved
or women ; givos gratuitous instruction to young
rirls. With such admirable means for perfection
in the art of design, is it to bc wondered that
Paris invents tho fashions l'or all tho rest of tho
*orld ?
THE HO:IIE JOURNAL gives its reeders a lung
irticlc on "Sexual Assimilation,'' in which it says :
'Female physicians aro multiplying ; civil offices

JOB WORK.-We have now completed our
o?ice so as to execute, in the shortest possible
time, ALL KINDS OF JOB WORK, and we
most respectfully ask the patronage of our
friends.
TI1K PALL TRADE.
During the ?lecade immediately preceding
the war, Charleston did a large and lucrative
business. Her harbor wah filled with ship?
ping, ber warehouses were stored with cot?
ton, her presses engaged night and day pre
paring bales of uplands for coastwise and in
teroceanic shipment. Lines of packets and
steamers took her cotton, her rice, and other
products of less aggregate value to New York,
Philadelphia, Boston, Baltimore, New Orleans,
Havana, Matanzas, New Providence; to Liver?
pool, Bremen, Havre, Bordeaux, and many
other ports; and in return were freighted with
bales of costly merchandise for our jobbers and
importers. Our banks had a large capital at
their disposal, which was liberally and judi?
ciously used for the accommodation of our
merchants, and the constant extension of the
sphere of the commerce of Charleston.
With the commencement of the war, and the
enforcement of the blockade, all the wheels of
this extensive and perfectly constructed piece
of commercial mechanism necessarily stopped.
The mainspring was not deranged; thc earth
was ready as ever "to yield her increase;"
labor, conduoted on the best organizad system
to be found anywhere in the world, was ours,
and in full operation; but the balance wheel
was disordered-the motive power was there,
but couiu not be utilized.
Gradually the whole machinery of trade fell
into decay. At the close of the war, old and
time-worn channels had become obliterated,
and for a while it seemed as though the whole
elaborate organism bad to be re-constructed.
The well-known laws of trade seemed to have
lost their force. Demand and supply no longer
preserved their wonted equipoise. The mer?
chants were nearly as numerous us the consum?
ers. There was a dearth of goods all over the
late Confederacy. The articles ordinarily con
sidered necessaries had become luxuries; and
in the first reaction upon the terrible privation
enforced by the war, every available means
was at once exchanged for provisions and sloth
ing of a character somewhat better than we
had been compelled to be content with during
the two or three years immediately preceding.
Stores were opened everywhere. A fortunate
few took advantage of this flood-tide, and some
of them at least, reaped rich harvests of gold,
silver nnd greenbacks.
This factitious activity of trade in thc South
deceived thc merchants of the North. Instead
of viewing it as thc dying flicker of the expir
ing light, one last deceptive glare, and then all
darkness, they ignorantly considered it n fair
index of thc financial condition of the South
ern States. They soon, however, found their
mistake, but not without paying dearly for the
experience. The country was indeed exhaust?
ed; there was neither money nor a surplus of
products convertible into currency. Not only
this, but there was, moreover, a universal want
of horses, cattle, and hogs; of seeds, fertilizers,
and fitnuing utensils; and, asa matter of course,
of ready money with which to procure these
pssentiiils, or to carry on agricultural opera
lions with hired labor.
The march of a hostile army had destroyed
thc railroads; public travel being thus inter?
rupted, our city jobbers and their country cus?
tomers found it difficult to keep in communica?
tion. Large numbers thus went to New Y ork
mid to other points, and established new rela?
tions, and many of our merchants found too
late that they had not taken this new state of | ],
things into due consideration, and a large stock
of goode, purchased at the high prices then cur?
rent, remained on the shelves.
In additiou to all these drawbacks, the crops
during the last two years fell far short of the
yield anticipated. The deranged Bystetu of
labor, together with our political troubles, have
largely impaired our credit and depreciated
our securities; interest has ranged nt unprece?
dented high rates, and money, even on those
terms, has been almost impossible to obtain;
and, to complete the long iliad of our commer?
cial woes, all this while, taxes, internal, State
and municipal, have been increasing, from
year to year, as by a geometrical ratio, and
have made less the little that had been left us
out of the wreck of our former prosperity.
Notwithstanding, however, all these depress?
ing influences, we are happy to know that
Charleston has been steadily progressing in
the great work of commercial reconstruction.
Her railroads, by the unparalleled energy of
officers and directors, were promptly placed in
running order; her wharves rebuilt at con?
siderable expense; her commercial relations
with distant ports have been resumed; old lines
have been re-established, and new ones added.
Although our banking facilities still fall far
short of the flush times before the war, we
have at least made a commencement. True,
their resources are limited, and inadequate to
thc "accommodation'* of all who are "hard up, '
we think we have reason to expect an enlarge?
ment of their sphere at an early period.
Nearly all our old friends may again be
found on Hayne, Meeting, King and East Hay
streets, and not a few new ones in addition.
Their stocks, though very prudently not ns
large as lHGO, are well selected, and afford the
fullest variety-ample to all the demands of
I lie trade.
Although the depreciation of cotton cannot
in itself be considered an advantage to this
part of thc country, still its coincident effect
nf lowering the price of goods, must conduce
indirectly to the advantage of the trade, as a
lunch larger consumption may confidently be
expected. Indeed, not cotton goods alone, but
merchandize of every description is much lower
now than two years ago. The crop now har
rctiting is superior to any we have had since
1800; and our merchants, we think, have
'very reason to anticipate a fair average fall
rade.
From an inspection of thc extensive maga?
zines in Hayne and Meeting streets, it would
tppcar that our importers and jobbers have
jjovided themselves fully for such a demand,
rheir stores are filled with the products of
;very variety of goods, domestic and foreign.
Our merchants, some of whom have been
.ngaged in this trade over half a century, have
iccutnulated a large store of valuable experi
ince. They know the wants of the several
ections of country, tributary to this market ;
,nd their former customers will find it as
ver to their interest to visit the good old city
y the sea, and procure their supplies of those
on whose word they know they can implicitly
depend.
In conclusion, it may not bc amiss to revert
once again to tho health of Charleston. A
kind Providence has ?pared us t his year, when
disease iu various forms bas visited cities both
North and South. Never before has Charles?
ton enjoyed such entire immunity from epi?
demic disease, as has been thc case this year,
and our friends in the country everywhere
may confidently visit us. with an assurance of |
entire safety.
THE TOME OF THE COUNTRY PRESS.
We have bofore reverted to the different
sentiments expressed by thc country press,
and have shown that they were gradually be?
coming convinced of thc necessity of comply?
ing with the requisitions of Congress. Those
papers ure mostly conducted by Editors .. na?
tive and to thc manner boru'" and their public
opinions during the present crisis merit more
than a passing notice. Originally devoted to
the States Rights doctrine, in nearly every in?
stance, they gave their adhesion to the cause
of secession and fought manfully for their
rights as freemen. At the close of the war
they resumed their editorial labors, but with
few exceptions either remained mute on thc
great topics of the day, or gave thci rsupport
lo the doctrines promulgated by HILL, PERRY,
and others. Latelj'. however, quite a different
ent tone prevails. Among the papers which
have taken a different stand, the Winnsboro
Tri-Weekly Newt, is probably the most fearless
and outspoken. It repudiates the past tenets
of the State and urges its readers to accept the
conditions of Congress as the only method by
which they can ever regain their rights in
the Union.
The Winnsboro Newt is published in a popu?
lous district, and has a large circulation. With
the exception of the Columbia Phoenix, it is
the only paper outside of Charleston that is
issued more than once a week. Its present
political position is of a comparatively recent
date, but under the control of the new Editor,
Major W. W. HERBERT, an ex-officer of the
C. S. A., it bids fair to become one of the or?
gans of the Southern Reconstruction party.
Mr. HERBERT eschews Radicalism, but advo?
cates reconstruction principles; his editorials
are not confined to political subjects, but treat of |
matters of general interest. In thc last issue
of the paper an article on confiscation exposes
the views of the extreme Radicals and shows
that if carried out either by the action of Con?
gress or by the principle of taxation proposed
in the recent Republican Convention, it would
be of no material benefit to thc colored laborer.
While asserting and defending these and
similar principles, the Editor states that his
views are open to discussion and that believ?
ing in the freedom of the press, he deems it
but justice to those differing with him politi?
cally to say, that he will always hold himself
ready to give place in his columns to original
communications, let the political complexion
be what they may.
