"Look out then for a letter," and down it would come into the fire-place. - The internal condition of Italy is becoming critical.

She disclaims any recollection of having fired the pistol. -The Washington Express of Wednesday uSfn: "At a private gathering of gentlemen, of both political parties, one of the Justices of the Supreme Court spoke very freely oon oarning the reconstruction Pleasures of Con? gress, and declared in the most positive terme that all tbese laws were unconstitutional, and that the court would be sure to pronounce them so. Some of his friends near him sug? gested that it was quite indiscreet to speak so positively, when he at onoo repeated the views In a more emphatic manner." This is the paragraph referred to in the telegrams pub? lished yesterday. -Lord Ranelagh, an English Peer, has been prosecuted again for smoking in a railway car? riage, and fined. Some time ago be was fined for smoking on the South Western, und a week after the company put on smoking carriages. In his defence his Lordship said that when these laws were made smoking in England was the exooption, now it is the rule. Tue Princs of Wales smokes; the Duke of Cambridge smokes; several bishops smoke; Mr. Bright, Mr. Carlyle and Mr. Diokens smoko. As the maiority smoke, it is only necessary to put on fvery train carriages in which smoking is for? bidden, as they have in France carriages in .very $rain into whioh men are forbidden to outer. -Tho bill far the reorganization of the Frenoh anny having passed the Corps L?gisla? tif, came before the Senate this w?ck. Michel Chevalier tn a powerful speech opposed the bill He took strong grounds in favor of poace for Franco, and on this basis argued against the measure. Franco Bhould maintaiu close relations"with the neighboring European pow? ers, all of whom should unite to resiBt the empire ot' Russia and tho republic of Amori:a nations which, in tho extraordinary growth of | their terr, tory, power and ambition, threaten to overshadow the world. Marshall Neil re? plied in support of the bill, declaring the grounds on which tho arguments of tho Chev? alier were based were untenable. His fears in regard to Russia were absurd. Such news were refuted by every event in the history of | Europe Bince the war in the Crimea. Tho de? bate ended yesterday evening, when tho bill was passed. -In a recent private letter to a friend Gene? ral Hancock saya : ''I always objected to being placed in command here when considted. When in obedience to orders it became neces? sary to occupy the position, I came determined to carry out the laws-not to make now ones unless necessary, and only when civil one3 fail? ed. I shall always regard tho law, aoting in? side of it, not outside. If the laws are required it is for Congress to make them. Those in force I shall not execute in a partisan spirit ; as long as I remain I will execute those in full. Having often to choose between the civil and military law I take the formel, and where powerless will try and build it up. If the officers fail I will appoint now ones, ?md if no good ones oan be found may have to resort to military despotism. I do not believe that will oome. When it does I may make at good a despot as any one. I shall send you copies of my orders, which will show my course of j action to be in conformity with the law." m i -- " BM CHARLESTON . SATURDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 1. 1868. The StAte Tax of 1866. In another column will ba found an ex? planatory order from General CAHBT in referenoe to certain clauses of State taxes for the year 1866. It is proper to mention in this place that General CANBT ha l con? sistently shown a desire so to use th J vast power entrusted to him as to wort the greatest practicable advantage to tho peo? ple of the State at large. Militar/ rule must always be condemned; but, in his willingness to listen to the explanado is and suggestions of our public men, and n the enlarged liberality of his views, the Gene? ral Commanding this Distriot bas shown that he is determined to make military su? premacy as lenient and equitable an mili? tary supremacy can be. The order published to-day will lie the means of relieving many who, by th* legis? lation of the State, had been embarrassed and injured. It will assist in encouraging the growth of that buoyant spirit which is tho parent of business prosperity, and will remove one of those dangers whici have hung like fetters on the limbs of trade and oommuroe. As newspaper proprietors we thank Gen? eral CANBT for the consideration shewn the public press of South Carolina,-e. press w?iioh appreciates justice from wi at ever souroo it may oome. The Truth Coming Ont! Geueral SCOTT has made another report to General HOWARD upon the condition of affairs in South Carolina; and, aa far as oan be judged by the synopsis, whioh will be found in another column, it is tho truth and nothing but the truth. This ?port, at least, is not written for political effuct; and it gives as fair a statement of the indolence and improvidence of the negroes, and of | the difficulties and troubles of the v. hile people in this State, as could be either ex? pected or desired. It is understood that General SCOTT is now in Washington, and, if called on to do to, he can verify the words of his report from personal experience, and pro,re to the members of Congress, for once, that what has been published over and ov< r again in tba columns of Southern newspapers in regard to the condition of the negra was no fabrication to serve a party purpose but a plain recital of an unmistakable fact. Intemp?rance nt Washington. A Washington correspondent ms kes Borne astounding disclosures in regard to Con? gressional "weaknesses." He states that one gentleman who was an exemplary mem? ber of the Congressional Temperance So? ciety, a year ago, astonished and appalled the boarders at Willard's, one moaning last week, by entering the breakfast room in his night shirt, at about ten A. M.; another was taken home in a hand-cart, not many Sun? days since; while still another, over whose conversion all the ladies were, a year ago, saturating their pocket handkerchiefs, and "oarrying on" in a more melodramatic way than anything recorded of the Brick Lane Branch of the Ebenezer Temperance So? ciety, of which the elder Mr Weller'e "second wentur" was such a bright and shining light-that gentleman (a distin? guished Senator from the West), has been, for a week or more, confined to his room and a diet of pickled cabbage to help him over a prolonged carouse, terminating in the delirium trsment. Nor is this all. It is not even the worst. As this subject is a delicate ona the name is withheld. Yet the eminent oosition of the inebriate in question is clear from the hesitancy and even dread with which the matter is referred to. The statement is to the effeot that a particular case has become so serious of late that an eminent bishop of j the Methodist Church has beer sent for, and has oome all the way from Philadelphia to see what he oan do in the way of reform? ing tho eminent sinner. In a late number of the Citizen JOHN MITCHEL bluntly charges with this vice a great military personage. Spartan sim? plicity would be out of place in that oentre of luxury and corruption. Th?re life is excitement and the orgies of iiociety are rivalled only by the orgies of legislation. But all this excess betokens ch inge. The relaxed hand of the inebriate cannot retain the soeptre. When ALEXANDER revels his conquests end. Ir IS RUMORED, wo know not with what truth, that JAY COOKE & Co . the Phila? delphia bankers, have offered to take one hundred thousand dollars of the South Car? olina Bills Receivable at eighty cents on the dollar. to Seit ClTORB TO RENT, THE STORK AND O DWELLING No. 410 King-street, between Cal houn-Btreet and Burn?'
