-Henry Vf..ri Beacher, noticing recent attacks
upon him by orthodox papers, sayot "L.ko a drum,
I nevor seom to be answering tho ead of my beiug
?nicas somebody is beatiug me."
-The sum of $190 OOO has been expoudod in the
registration ot tho voters of tho First Military Dis
tnet. Tho fund is now exhausted, and notkinc
more can ba paid untd Congross makes another
appropriation for reconstructioa.
-?poak.nsr of tao Everett statue, a New York
paper says: "No po .vcr ot human geoius oan make
the human figaro dignifioi in t?o modern dress of
mea, aud seulpture always fails when she tries to
do so, even wita tho pretence of tho Spanish cloak
or tho ScJtti h plaid."
-Dancing is becoming unfashicnable. "In New
York," so says tho Gazetto, ''moro elegant and in?
tellectual diversions bavo bean given." We
further learn, irom the same authority, that the
in'alleotnal diversions comprise "nae readings and
reflations, ending in some oases with delicious
tappers 1"
-A Mississippi railroad has an onglno named
"W. Booth." Uudor thc impression that it was in
honor of tho murderer ot Mr. Lincoln, the milita?
ry authorities forbade its being run, but on learn?
ing that it was purchased before the war, and was
in honor of some local celebrity, the order waa
rescinded.
-Ca.ir.cs Diokens, a high authority, leans to
the position that first impressions are usually cor?
rect, and also sa\st "I have kuown a vast quantity
of noosecse talked about bad mon not looking you
lo the face. Don't trust that conventional idea.
Dishonesty will stare honesty out of countenance,
any day in tho week, if there is anything to bc
got by it."
-An Englishman, carrying a long nuigo rifle
with telescopio sight, accompanied Garibaidi'd ex?
pedition for sport. Ho would establish himself
weil out of hum's way, and pick off bis man at
leisure, puttii g down every successful shot. in a
sporting book. It is supposed that he killed Mr.
Julian Watts Bussell, of Staffordshire, Englaud,
who W.S fighting in tho Pope's army at Mentana.
-Loudon correspondents make a good deal of
fun of the Abyssinian exp?dition, and speak of the
supplies as coubistiog ot "cords end handles for
bell-puLs, bottled -cor, rat traps, cases of blacking
and mangles." The soldiers aro advised to beware
of tho "serpents, ma_y cf whom are said to be
venomous," and not to drii'k water from poisoned
weil*. The sxpodition doesn't meei with much
favor from the people.
-Artio.es v. ere exhibited at the Paris Exposition
apparently made of meerschaum, tut manufac?
tured entirely oui of potatoes, prepared in a peou
b'ar manner by a chemical process. Turnips
tieatcd in the same way furnish an excellent imi?
tation of stag's horn, which can be cot into thin
plates for veaoering, and rendered as flexible as
leather by soaking in dj corine or water. Carrols
similarly prepared make an imitation oural.
-ibo pit in the St. Lox: theatres has beea al?
ways occupied by rowdies and "low persons.'* A
few Kent.cmea thought the matter worth reform
lng, so they arrayed thomselvos like tho lilies of
the field, iu waite vests, "ohokers," gloves and
faultless broadcloth, and took their scats in that
part ot the house. Tue innovation had its effect.
Awed by tho gorgeous attire and polished demea?
nor and lorgnettes of tho swells, the "low per
-mvuw ?JU m TB-J W WBBBBW t'UlOt, attentive
and abashed throughout the performance. St.
Loa.s prides itself upon the porformanoo of the
prigs.
-In Brooklyn a very beautiful church spiro is
being erected, and it is said that the modo of de?
ter xi bag tho inclination of the spire and regula?
ting its perpendicularity is ingenious, though sim?
ple. It i". acoomphshed Dy an instrument called a
hatter plumb. This is made of two wooden rules
joined together at tho extremities, wi h a plumb
line hanging fxoo bet v con them. One of the e
?rules is pex^endicuLr and the other inchnedat the
angle required for the awe 1 of the st ire. This in?
clined rule is placed againut tv o spire as it is built,
and the plumb line f dang more or less from tho
perpendicular of tho other rule shown whether the
une is accurate.
-The systems of sign ding and telegraphing
are now uniform in the army and navy of the
United Staten. The cadets at West Point, and the
midshipmen at Annapolis, are instructed in the
samo system, so that when they become officers
they will bo enabled, in any contingency of land or
na i al service, to open and maintain communica?
tion by cod.s of signol.ng and electric telegraphy
identic J in thor operation. Tho systems in use
during tho war in tue army, are the foundations of
tacos taught, aad it is announoed from Washing?
ton, that G.lonel Myer, the Signal Oifiotr, is im?
proving them by adding modes of signaling and
telegraphing in oypher.
-A very unpleasant scandal has come to fight
in England witfi regard, to one of h:r Majesty's
Consola, Mr. Calvert, whose post was at the Dar*
dandles. Ho is now accused of having attempted
to defraud Lloyd's agency by insuring for ?14 OOO
a ship which never existed, and then pretending
that it had bean destroyed hy fire, and Bending in
a claim for the money. Lloyds were suspicious,
and sent out a commissioner +o inquire into the
carcuma tan ces. Upon bearing is, Mr. Calvert,
as it is alleged, fled anu hid himself-certain it is
that ho disappeared for some weeks. A prosecu?
tion has been ordered by the British Government.
-The prospect of heavy taxation is not very
pleasant at present in England. Tho London
Times takes a desponding view of the prospective
financial condition of that country for the coming
year. What with the necessity of expending $10,
000,000, an income tax of fis. n >w, an increase of
8d. in the tux of 1868-9, and a probable riso in the
taxes on tea and sp nt duties, there is much, it
says, to be seriously considered by the govern?
ment. The trade returns, likewise, give cause for
despondency. For October, 1837, they shew a
falling off in the exports of 6 per o ut. as com?
pared with October lust year. For the first ten
months of 1867 that have passed, the faning off is
per oont. from tho roturas of the samo period
; niue.
-i^o KcntuOlcy Senato has adopted, by a voto
of twenty-five to six, a resolution providing for
the appointment of a soleot committee of five from
the Senate and five from tue House, with instruc?
tions to report as early as practicable the assesed
Taine of slaves taken from tho citizens of Eontucky
"o. Federal Exetu ive proclamation, by acts of
Omgress, and by the amendment to tho Constitu?
tion of tho Uuitsd Stales, known as the thirteenth
article; a td, also, tho value of such slaves taken
from each county in the commonwealth; and that
said committ'je report what steps aro necessary
and proper to enable tho citiaons of the State to
obtain compensation from the Federal Government
for such slaves so takes?
-11 March 1SG6, Congress suspended the reci?
procity treaty with Caua Ja, which it waa thought
would bo au udmiiublo moans cf venting its wrath
against Great Briton. Previously to that time
large supplies of whoat, oats, potatoes, lumber,
and other articles of Canadian production, had
been obtained from Canada, increasing our com- j
maree wita the provinces at tho rate of from fif?
teen to twenty-five per cent, annually, but, since
..here has been a reduction of fifty-two per cont, in
our impor:s irom that quarter, tho cons?quence of
which is felt in higher pxic?e. Ti.ere is now a
prospect o? the re-enactment of the treaty, it hav?
ing been discoveted that we have ooaa punishing
oaxaolvesin this brilliant experiment to afflict
"perfidious Albion."
-Tho contemplated mustering out of General
Howard from tho volunteer army, it is said, will
not necessarily romovo him trom tho control cf
the Freedmen's Bureau. A Washington dispatch
states that no Will doubtless bo rotaiaei as a
civilian Assistant Comuussioi.er o' the Freedmen's
Bureau in tho District of Columbia. It ie also
stated that General Howard is anxious to have a.l
the volunteer officers on duty ia his bureau retail -
ed in the srrvice untd tho bureau is discontinued,
and bas, it ie said, requested General irant to de?
fer their muster out, ou condition that the Pay
Department bo reimbursed for tho amounts of
their salaries from the funds of the Freedmen's
Bureau. General Ho.iard as igns as his reasons
for this request that the bureau cannot yet dis?
pense with the sorviccs winch those officers per
-ona. and if tboy aro discharged civilians will have
tobo employed in their plao^s who will not be as
familiar with tho duties required of them.
CHARLESTON.
WEDNESDAY HORNING, DECEMBER 18, 16G7.
Tile Friends of thc Xcgro.
Nothing is more common than the practice
of Radical emissaries-whether preachers, pol?
iticians, schoolmarms, or bureau oiheera-of
sneering at the professions of Southern gen?
tlemen when they tell the negro that they are his
best friends. The lash, thc handcuff and the auc?
tion block are at once brought out from the ever
ready abolition arseaal, to combat and refute
tho stateuiout. A great pliilauthropical dust is
raised, but when we come to examine it closely,
we na.i nothing substantial behind the vapid
denunciations of these negropuilists, unless il is
selfishness and hypocrisy. It is too late in the
day to r: pea: what has beea said a thousand
times already about the history of slavery,
fhe institution is now dead, and we have no
desire to revive it. With its death, moreover,
we would fain bury all tho crimiuutiou aud
recrimination to which it has for years given
rise. The subject is, however, forced upon us
from time to time, and we do not feel at lib?
erty to ignore it.
One of the most striking features of the
I controversy has been the fact, that, while the
Western Status have always been the strong?
hold of abolition, 6evcral of them enacted
stringent laws, forbidding the sojourn of
negroes within their limit9, and this at the
very time when they vero hounding on the
dogs of war upon the hated South. With the
abolition of slavery carno the ory of negro
equality ; aud the eame fact si ill stares us in
the face. Ohio, Kanst-^and Minnesota, all three
strong Radical States, voted on thc question of
negro suffrage during the past few months,
and "liberty" suffered a most crushing defeat.
Ohio rejected the political negro equality
amendment by about 50,000, Kansas by 8000,
I and Minnesota by 1300 votes majority. Thia
vote it 6hould be recollected includes many
of the freedom shriekers, who insist upon sad?
dling negro suffrage upon tho South. The
case is much aggravated, and their inconsis
' tency rendered moro glaring, when we bear in
mind the large proportion which the negro
population bears to the whole population of the
.South, while in the three Western States just
named, they form but an inappreciable laction.
I Thus Ohio hts 1,171,720 white males, and only
18,442 male negroes; Kansas 57,892 whites and
286 blacks; and Minnesota 126 male negroes
to 91,804 male whites. These facts require no
comment._
Across thc Continent.
When tho rich deposits of gold were first
discovered in California about tho year 1848,
letter took from four to six months 'o get
from New York to San Francisco, and some of
our readers may perhaps recollect BATABD
TAYLOR'S lively description of the scenes at
the San Francisco Postoffice, when half a mile
of sturdy miners, iu Indian file, patiently
awaited their turn at the "general delivery,"
upon the arrival of a steamer "from the States."
Tho voyage round Cape Horn, and the whole
of South America was more tedious than pleas?
ant. The Panama line of Bteamers soon rem?
edied this evil, and shortened the time to one
month. Fifteen days is now the sohedule
?me, and in three years more, we are prom?
ised it in six days.
Although we spoke of tho Pacifio Railroad
only a few days ago, thc enterprise is of such
momentous importance, not only to the United
???tot>, but to tho whole civilized world, that
we have no hesitation in again oalling atten?
tion to it. About one hundred and thirty-five
miles are now completed of the Central Pacific
Railroad, from Saoramento City. Ten thou?
sand men are employed on it. The Union
Pacifio Railroad now runs a few miles west of
Cheyenne City, five hundred and seventeen
.ailes west of Omaha. Cheyenne City, which
three months ago, had not even a name, now
has its thousands of inhabitants. Thc receipts
from these two roads, the Central and the
Union Paeiflo have been very large, and with
the liberal aid they receive from government,
the oompany will find no serious hindrance in
completing the whole line of the road at the
earliest practicable period.
The effect upon Amerioan and European civ?
ilization, this great annihilation of distances
will effect it is impossible to foresee. The
East and the West will probably join hands
upon the great American plains. The poor
starving millions of ludia, China and Japan,
may, in another decade, be covering the Pa
oific slope of our continent, and perhaps also
a large part of the basin east of the Rocky
Mountains. When the tide of immigration
once fairly sets in from that quarter, there
will soon be an abuudauce of labor, a surplus;
and "SuratB" will then have no terror for
the American ootton planter. If we eau but
hold out until then, we are satisfied that our
large area and fertile acres will prove an irre?
sistible inducement to emigrants from every
quarter of the globe, and we shall then onoc
more have control of the markets of the world.
Nor in cotton alone will we be benefitted.
The introduction of Chinese and Japanese la?
borers to our shores, will bring with it the cul?
ture of tea, and of the silkworm, the manufac?
ture of their earthenware, etc. Our industries
will beoome greatly diversified, and many new
sources of wealth developed. The subject is
temptiog, but we must rein in our speculative
steed, and await developments, before we in?
dulge in further day dreams.
Thc Election for Convention.
In the table below will be found the returns
from two districts in addition to those wo gave
yesterday, vii: Marlboro' and Chesterfield.
The fgures now stand as follows: Total regis
tered, 127,089; required mojority, 63,545.
The vote for and against Convention, as far as
heard from positively, is 59,030, whiou, in
addition to the probable vote from th? five
districts not yet finally heard from (12,116), is
71,146, or a majority of 7,601 :
