At General Grant's reception on Wednesday night he divided with Sheridan the honor of being the greatest attraction.

Life and limb should be made safe on lines of city travel if possible. The accidents on the horse-cars are of very frequent occurrence in most of the cities hav? ing such Unes. -A telegram from Vicksburg, datod tho 38th ultimo, stated that on that day Ser? geant Gilbert H. Bates, of Wisconsin, who made a bet to carry the stare and stripes from that place to Washington, unarmed and without money,had started on his journey. The sergeant was a soldier of the Union anny; was one of the first to enter the service, and one of the last to leave it. A Democrat from principle, he remained true to the party dur? ing all the coufliot, and returned to bia home an advocate of liberality in the treatment of the unfortunate people of the South. In a con? troversy with a party of Radicals, who main tamed 'hat the Southern people were outlaws, who did not hesitate to take the Ufe of any I man, white or black, suppected of Unionism, tho sergeant denounced the assertion as a falsehood, and declared that he, an ex soldier of thc Union army, could march through the South with the Union flag e - posed, without a cent in his pocket, nnd not only escape bodily harm, but receive hospitable treatment from the Southern people, upou whom ignorant Radicalism was heaping so much abuse. A purse-heavy Radical offered to bet a certain amount that he would be killed if he under? took the journey; and, in the event of the ser getnt'd death, agreed to pay the sum to the "fcolhardy young man's family." The bsnter was accepted by the sergeant. He will travel from Vicksburg to Jackson, thence to Mont? gomery, Ala.; thenco to Milledgoville, Ga.; thence to Columbia, S. C.; thence to Raleigh, N. C.; tbonce to Richmond, and thence to Washington, at which placo ho is to arrive or boi ore tho fourth of July next. The sergeant ia a poor mau, described SH devoid of conceit and perfectly honorable in his conduct. Let tera have been received by bim from promt neut gentlemen living in thc cities on h march, inviting him to be their guest when passes through, and tendering bini a guard honor. CHARLESTON. FRIDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 14, 1868. The Bran New State Constitutions. Some of our newspapers are clamoring loudly at this time for instant and effective organization of all the conservative ele ment8 at the South with a view to insuring tho rejection of the constitutions framed bj the reconstruction conventions, when those instruments are submitted to the peo pie in the several States for ratification by the people. It maj be that tho movement suggested will do no harm; but we sadly fear that it eau now do no goori. The sole aim of Congress at this time if to prolong the existing Radical rule at Washington To do this, the electoral voten of the ten Southern States must be obtained, by fui means or foul, for the Radical candidate in the approaching Presidential contest. So willj-nillj, we shall all be comfortably re constructed bofore November; and it is of little practical consequence what we may do or say. It has long ago been deter mined by the leading Radicals to accept by Congressional enactment, thc State consti tut iou9 to be sent to Washington by the con veutions, irrespective of the action of the people, and that the requirement in the Re? construction acts that these constitutions shall be ratified by a majority of the reg? istered voters is to be repealed, or (which is the same thing) wholly disregarded. The action in the oase of Alabama tells us what we may expect. Odious as thu new consti? tutions may be to the whole body of the Southern people, we need not tihul our eyes to the fact that they arc alm-jnt certain to be saddled upon us within the next few months, as the most convenient substitute that party expediency can devise for the ex? isting military rule. The .nodal Kevcrscd. An Indian proverb quoted by SOUTHEY is to the effect that "curses are like young chickens; they always come home to roost." Those States to which SHERMAN'S bummers, or to speak more'respectfully, "foragers," have returned are beginning; to find this out. It was a great military discovery, ac? cording to General GRANT, that an army could be subsisted upon the resources of a State it invaded. He oould ht,ve conquered Vicksburg long before it actually fell, had he suspected this faot, which General SHER? MAN succeeded in proving. Buta war upon a defenceless population such as these Gen? erals inaugurated, not only supports but demoralizes au army. This rifling of corn cribs and meat houses, of drawers and trunks, the -'.ealing of spoon.', and watches, and the firing of houses, and the impunity of rapes and murders, may easily generate habits, and habits are hard to break. Per? haps in this may be found au explanation of the late astounding report of the "Citi? zens Association of New York," upon the condition and management of the various public institutions, charitable und penal, of that oitj. The report staten that in 1867 over ninetj thousand persons passed through these institutions, either as paupers or as criminals. This number constitutes one tenth of the entire population ! The Tribune, our authority for this stat? ment, does not pretend to explain the fact; but carelessly remarks that "it would seem that pauperism and orime among us are rapidlj on the increase; in 1880 the per oentage of pauperism was only one in every one hundred and twenty-thrre inhabitants." Does the Tribune feel no twinge of remorse in reflecting upon the carnies which have reduced the whole South to beggary, and aro now glutting the New York almshouses and prisons ? Or will it insist that what was military necessity and ?ven glory here, becomes crime when transferred to a colder latitude ? The same war, Mr. GREELEY, is still going on, but the battle field is changed. English Sentiment In itrgnnt to the Alabama Claims. The intelligent and usually well-informed English correspondent of the New York Times says that it seems to be the general impression in London-not as reflected in the London Times merely, but conveyed through all the channels ol public opinion in the metropolis, save the Morning Star alone-that England has gone as far in overtures towards a compromise as it can do consistently with just.ee. The public sentiment in England is briefly this: that it is ready and willing to have the whole question of liabilities on account of the Alabama claims referred to arbitration, and to pay all claims which are given in against England by an arbitrator agreed upon by the two powers; but that the good faith of England in recognizing the bellige? rent rights of the South, eleven days after the President's order for the blockade was published in England, and lifter Mr. Seward himself had declared to Lord Lyons that the United States were 'belligerents,' and referred to England as 'neutrals'-ihifl is a question which the people (not the govern? ment alone) seem to feel ought not to be re? ferred to arbitration. With this reserva? tion the feeling of the country is said to be for paying the money and making an end of the business. Periodical Literature. DEBOW'S REVIEW for February contains several excellent articles. The first, by the brilliant and facile pen of Professor GEORGE FREDERICK HOLMES of Virginia, is a learned and readable exposure of the futile attempts that have been made of late to de? prive SHAKBPEARE of his laurels, by Miss DELIA BACON and Judge HOLMES of Mis? souri, who have written with learned length, to prove that Lord BACON and Sir FRANCIS RALEIGH, and not WILLIAM SHAKSPEABE, have written SHAKSPEARE'S plays. Profes? sor HOLMES very properly remarks that the hasty inference drawn by these would-be discoverers of literary larceny is that an unlettered man could uot have composed these works, and that, as SHAKSPEARE WBB unlettered, he could not have written them. Professor HOLMES shows that this conclu? sion rests upon a purely arbitrary assump? tion. The prevalent misapprehension, which has so i -g beguiled the literary pub? lic, rests upon the misconception of tJEN JONSON'S language in his eulogy of SHAKS? PEARE : "Though thou hadst small Latin and less Greek From thence to honor thee." The full import of this expression cannot be apprehended until it is remembered that BEN JONSON was himself one of the finest scholars and most learned men of his age; and what would be "small Latin and less Greek" in his estimation would be copious erudition for any ordinary student. Professor HOLMES, ia the oourse of this article proves beyoDJt a doubt that neither BACON nor RALEIGH, but WILLIAM SHAKES? PEARE alone could have written the plays that go under his name. Tho number of DeBow before us has an article also upon "Negro Agrarianism," by GEORGE FiTznooH, of Virginia, which, with the "Industrial Interests of the South," by H. T. MOORE, of Alabama, and "Conser? vatism," by E. B. SEABROOK, of this city, will well repay perusal; as they treat with ability the great social and political prob? lems that now agitate our section of the United States. TU KENT-THE DESIRABLE RESI?

A Pure, Unmixed, Natural Guano, aa Fine as Floor (although not Ground), Just In the Condition In ?iiieli lt il Im ported from the Island. THIS GUANO 18 FBOM A BECENTLY DIS? COVERED deposit on Boduoda Inland, in the Cami i eau Sea. West Dadles, latitude 16 degreea 5C minn eu north, longitude 62 degrees 23 inlnatar weat It !ias been used for many years in the West India Islands in the cultivation of Sugar Cane and cereals with i rreat success; waa introduced for the first time to th i farmers and planters. of the United States in the BJ ring of 1866. and has met wi. h unprecedented succe SB, as the subjoined reports and testimonials tul? ly coi ro bor ?te. Tho RODUNDA GUANO is not a mineral 'phos? phate, requir ng the action of tho Sulphuric Acid tc rend? r it ratable; its great power as a fertilizer ie in its eiitiro solubility, without the aid of acid. Uta not a "manlpulauon" or Compound of r ish or Flesh with Mineral Phosphates, the regularity of which is al wa B uncertain and dependent upon, and controll? ed by the honesty ol tho manufacturer. The RO DUNDA is a PURE NATURAL GUANO (that term beini.: understood tornean the excrement offish-eat? ing iirds), as the large per centage of organic mat? ter sifficiently at tas ts, ondas found upon the Island of R< dunda, in tho very state as imported and sold to consumers. Ifce regularity and uniformity of the flnoness and condition of the various oargoes already imported by us ii to tho United states, tested by tho analysts ol the most eminent Cb onusta of this country and Eu? rope, is sufficient proof of its origin and a guarantee o? oi ir ability to furnish this Guano of the quality and purity represented. Tlte PRICE of the-RODUNDA GUANO is not the lea?: unimportant in these days of agricultural com? pet? ion and pecuniary embarrassment. Ti to very low price at which it can be sold places it witlln the reach ot overy farmer, and avoids the risk of Urge loss frequently incurred by failures of the croi s in tbepurchase of high priced fertilizers. Ii tho preparation of lands for Wheat and other cereals this Guano possesses proper?es that reuder it moro desirable lor these crops than any yet offered to tl ie public. Pamphlets containing tho analysis anil oxpori mei ts made bv thc tui>t prominent enemista of this couutry and in Europe, together with innumerable ceri tficateB of its enure success tran farmers and plat tera, can be obtained at our Office, to which we invite attention.
