M. Swain, founder of the Philadelphia Ledger, loft over three millions of property to bia two sons. -Private advices from Brazil state that a general conscription has been ordered to pro? vide reinforcements for the army. -A young millionaire of Boston celebrated his twenty-first birthday, a few days ago, by giving a grand party costing $20,000. _Thomas C. McCreery has been elected United States Senator fr > 1 Kentucky. He is a Democrat, and has n "? r heid public office. -Several clerks in tho Revenue office at >ew Orleans have been doing a good busi? ness steahn'g cotton permits and selling them on the street. -The House Committee on Claim3 have agreed to report a bill making an award of $100,000 of the reward offered for the capture of Jeff. Davis. -Advices from Wisconsin state that the del? egates to the national convention who favor Mr. Pendleton will receive the voto of the State. Dubuque county, Iowa, instructs for him. The Dubuque Herald raises the Pendleton flag. -Fifty-three persons, male and female, re? ceived a free breakfast at the Essex Market stationhouse, New Yoik, on Thursday, and at Jefferson Market sixty-seven. Some of the re? cipients said they had not tasted food for two days. -The government has ordered the necessa? ry buoys to be pla ced in the harbor and river waters of Lr una wick, in Georgia, and supple? mentary orders to carry this into effect bave been issued by Admiral Shubrick, of the Light? house Board. -Another defalcation is reported from Now York. The house of Ezra Goodrich & Co., importers in Exchange place, in that city, are said to have lost from $100,000 to $300,000 by the defalcation of their cashier, who has re? cently disappeared. -A letter from Senor Romero, dated Mexico, January 19, Bays he accepted the office of Sec? retary of the Treasury of the Republic of Mexi? co. He has therefore given np his position as Mexican minister at Washington and tho idea of returning to the United States. -England seems to be thoroughly frighten? ed by the Fenians. The Euglish Government has determined to fortify all ita police stations, and has begun with those of London, which are now provided with bullet-proof iron shutters, and stocked with small arms and ammunition. -Tho Cincinnati police are making a raid upon immoral picture sellers, and :n the course of it ordered an optician to remove from his window a stereographic picture of the Apollo Belvidere. This, to be sure, is rather an excess of morali? ty, but both Cincinnati and Philadelphia have ?et an example for Chirloston to follow. -Tho United States steamship Wampanoasr arrived at Fortress Monroe on Monday. She made the passage from Sandy Hook to Charlo. - ton in thirty-three hours. Her greatest speed in one hour was 20? miles; for twenty-four hours, 1074 knots; and ber average speed dur? ing the entire trial was 16i knots. The trial was a complete eucoees. -The Carlist party have effect ..d a revolution against the authority of Queen Isabella in the North of Spain, and their adherents have taken up arm B in considerable numbers in Navarre. Skirmishoa have token place between the civil guard and the insurgents in the City of Na? varre. Some few persons were wounded during the tumult. The movement appears to be the retrait of a deliberate and well-planned or? ganization. -The trial of Rev. Stephen H. Tyng, Jr., was brought to a conclusion in New York on Tuesday. Judge Fullerton made an argument for the defence, and Mr. S. P. Nash made the closing argument for the presenters. Tho court then recited the canon direoting them in the further proceedings, and adjeurned. This ends the case for the present. The next step will be the report of the court's decision to the Bishop, who will then be called on to act upon it. -The departure of the Papal Zouaves for Borne created immense excitement in Montreal. An immense audience was present at the special services held at Notre Dame Cathedral, on Tuesday night, in connection with the event, and on Wednesday over twenty thou? sand persons assembled at the station to see them off. Several parsons were nearly crushed to death by the pressure of the crowd. The greatest excitement prevailed among the Ro? man Catholics. -The New York poor are hereafter to bo fed at the public expense. Tho commissioners of public charities and correction in that city have mode arrangements to feed them daily between the hours of 7 and ll A. M., at three of the New York prisons. All the police au? thorities are furnished with tickets to give to such of the suffering poor as they may deem deserving of relief, and these uacasures, it is thought, will relieve much of the distress now existing in New York. -J. J. McGowan, tax collector of Chatham County. Ga., was arrested Thursday by the mihtary for refusing to carry out a general order from the Military Commander of the Third District, requiring him to collect taxes which conflicted with Governor Jenkins' in? structions requiring him to suspend the col? lection of State taxes. Mr. McGowan preferred to obey the instructions of Governor Jenkins, and refused to deliver up the books and papers of his office. He was arrested and imprisoned in the United States barracks. -A dispatch from Indianapolis to the Cin? cinnati Commercial says : "A prominent banker of this city has just returned from Washing? ton, wheie he has spent some time to ascer? tain the feeling among the senators and mem? bers of Congress upon financial questions. Ho says that if tho Senate is compelled to vote upon the question of the right of the govern? ment to redeem the five-twenty bonds in legal tenders, they will sustain that view. But thev will not vote to increase the volume of the cur? rency at all. There is a strong feeling in the House in favor of issuing legal tenders to the foll amount contracted by the Secretary of the Treasury; but it could not pass the Senate, and if it did, tho President would veto it, ? opposed to ai creasing tho volume of I rency one dol ar. Thore will probably unfriendly l?gislation toward tho i banks, but not of a character to cause wind up. Sherman's bill will probably i Se?ale, but its chances in the House so favorable." -Speaking of tho political movoin Now York Ste.te, the Now York Heral< "The town ele ctions thus* far in this Sta shown Democratic gains over the 50.00C ity in 1867. We have already given the in the counties where elections have 1 been held thin year. These counties re different sections of the State, showing! Democratic gains cannot be ascribed < causes. The counties that 1 ave thus in a Democratic appearance may bc om ed as follows: Broomo, Herkimer, Otscgo, Montgomery, St. Lawronco, St< &c. -One of the most ccld-bloodod and at murders that bas been committed fe timo was the assassination of a conduct New York horse car Monday eveninp testimony at the inquest shows concl that the murdered man gave DO cause fence at the time, and that the assassin a insulted and threatened him in the mos ton manner, refusing to pay his fare asked to. The conductor, after vainly voting to bring hiB refractory passer reason, wan at length compelled to eje from the car. Thereupon the ruffian ra the car and stabbed tho conductor, w standing on tho rear platform. In the sion the assassin escaped, leaving his vic a dying condition. CHARLESTON MONDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 24, CONGRESS has at length declared against the President. Again and thc country was led to suppose tba peachment had received its quietus; b day the project looma up once more, a a guise, that shows it to bo no long' empty threat of a handful of crazy re Monists. Immediate impeachment is t the settled purpose of the Radical par the floor of Congress. The hour is 1 and the sun will not go down before aim is consummated. Impeached b' House, the President must be tried b Senate ; and unless the prescribed cc tutional forms are disregarded, the will be a tedious process, and many a < must elapse before it is possible for President to be displaced. But in t disjointed times, tho mandates of wr constitutions are of little moment, am one will be surprised at any turn that ev may take, or, indeed, if at any hour Man on Horseback should make his app ance as the master of the National Cap La Revolution va blent Congress is supremo. General GRANT been secured by the offer of the Preside and has dexterously reinstated Mr. STAN in the War Office. Tho President's effoi checkmate GRANT with SHERMAN has fai He has ceased, virtually, to bo Commat of the Army and Navy of the United Sta And now the appointment of General KENZO THOMAS to the position of Seorct of War ad interim, and the rapid promot: proposed in the case of General GEORGE THOMAS, are the Presidential moves for recovery of lost ground. The fight se< as hopeless as that of the Black Kuigh romance against the strong towers of Fr de Boeuf; and we are as helpless as wounded captive and the dark browed li within. Yet, notwithstanding all odds, pulse quickens and the heart revives, as hear the renewal of the contest. Tho 1 liberties of tho American people may be redeemed. Every motive that personal pride i public spirit can afford conspire to mi the President resolute and strong. C gress has taken the ground that he ho I his office at their pleasure, that his pot ! is not co-ordinate but ministerial, that j has no right to any opinions whioh are i j noxious to the ruling majority. Hence tl have interfered with his control of the ct inet and usurped his command of the arc They have denounced his constitutional i of the pardoning and tho veto power. Th have scouted his treaties and his nomi: tions of officers in the executive depa ment. Himself they threaten with remo' from office on partisan charges. They c sire to reduce Mr. JOHNSON to a roifainea in plain English, a nobody. And Mr. JOH SON objects ! The control of the army essential to the independence of the Exec tive, as its reduction is indispensable to t relief of the citizen and the liberty of t republic. At present, Congress reta?, sixty thousand men in tho field and coi mands them through Mr. STANTON ai General GRANT. The reliance of all these worthies upi the army is becoming moro and more app rent. It is said that General GRANT h already assumed the state of a militw dictator; that soldiers are stationed at h house, and even attend the members of h family in their pleasure-rides, after tl fashion of European princes; that details i soldiers officiate as a 6ort of body-guard i his receptions. A military guard is mom ted before the War Department. It is pn posed also to garrison the 'capitol. Tl silver buti ons and holiday clubs of the pi licemen who now wait upon thc nation legislators, must give place to the brazo eagles, the clanking sabres and the g!e;>-r ing bayonets of a Pretorian Guard, traiuu and prompted to execute the will of th nation's sovereigns. Instead of the peace ful assembly once trusting in and truste by the people, our laws will be dictated b; a suspioious and relentless oligarchy, sur rounded by tents and batteries and round of grim and silent sentinels, and lines o serried regiments. What laws may be ex pected out of the heart ofthat armed array what orders will como forth from that con fusion of early roll-Calls, and grounder weapons, and rattling drums, it is not diffi cull to anticipate. Yot even should Congress triumph now, we will not despair. That day which re? duces all the States of the Union to the condition in which we are held, may be our day of redemption. Moro Trouble for Mexico. The Juarez Government has hardly suc? ceeded in crushing opposition and in? timidating disaffection at home, before it is again menaced with destruction from abroad. Private advices from London have been rcoeived in Washington, stating that the intelligence from Mexico, that the gov? ernment has determined to repudiate all debts due to foreign countries except the United States, has given rise to an intense feeling; of indignation on the part of the English Government. The reason assigned by Me.-cico for the adoption of such a course, is a revenge upon the nations of Europe for the recognition of MAXIMILIAN. England, however, not having followed the rest of Europe in this hastv 'ding, is conse? quently doubly affected by the new Mexican policy. The English Government, it is said, is seriously contemplating the fitting out of a fleet to take possession of the ports of Mexico and hold them until satisfaction is given. If th:? He true, the murder of the Austrian prince may yet be avenged. go Mnl EUOMS TO RKST.-TWO HANDSOME ROOMS, cither furnished or unfurnished ; a dresaiDg room attached, opening on piazza.
