NEWS SUMMARY. _Gold closed in New Yjrk yesterday at ilia 414. -Cotton closed doll and a shade easier. Sales 2800 bales at 22a22jc. -In Liverpool yesterday cotton closed dull but steady; Uplands on the spot 9}d.; to arrive 9fd. -Canada has adopted a judicious severity with regard to application for divorce. They must give notice in the newspapers for six months before their application can be re? ceived. -In New Jersey, a strong effort is being made to procure the passage by the legisla? ture of a law to have vegetables in that State bought and Bold hereafter by weight, instead of by measure. -The Great Eastern steamship has been laid up in idleness for several months, waiting for some new Atlantic cable company to com? mence operations, as that seems to be almost the only business she is fitted for. -Manufacturing is gradually extending in the Southern States. The Mobile papers re? port, with much apparent gratification, the opening of a new paper mill in Alabama, on the line of the Mobile and Ohio Railroad. -A torrent of boding water burst up through the shaft of an artesian well, whi"h was being sunk at La Crosse, Wisconsin, scalding several men, melting off the snow for some six acres and boiling things generally. -The Indians are lively in Texas. Flake's Galveston Bulletin tells a story of a German whose horse became tired, and who was cap? tured by the red skins. They only flayed him alive and then let him go. From the position in which the body was found, it is evident that the miserable man ran a hundred yards after this torture. -Another terrible accident is reported in New Yoi k from the explosion of a ooal oil lamp. It occurred about daylight on Friday morning, in a tenement house. The bouse was partly destroyed; the inmates had a narrow escape with their Lives, and some eight persons, near? ly all children, were badly burned. The'ne cessity of the greatest care in the use of coal oil cannot be too strongly impressed upon the public -In Arkansas, the Reconstruction Convention having framed a new State Constitution and adjourned, General Gillern, commanding the department, has ordered an election to be held f- U~ i II|1?M? -? Mjw?U?? -r U wuoU tution, by the registered voters of Arkansas, beginning the 15th day of March, 1868, and continuing until completed. The election, it will thus be seen, is to continue for an indefi? nite period. Polls are to be opened in every precinct of every county of the State. -Advices from Mexico state that the Mexi? can Government has recognized the English and Spanish debts, and that a sinking fund has been created for the redemption of the converted bonds. The revolutionists in Yuca? tan hold possession of the town of Tramal; which was besieged on the 12th instant. Gen. Alat?rre expected the place to capitulate on the 13tb. A number of leading rebe.s, who escaped from Sisal on the schooner Oriente, were driven ashore by two of Juarez's gun? boats. -The life insurance business has grown most rapidly in the United Stales. There is scarcely a State that has not one or more com? panies organized; and in Connecticut we And that the town of Hartford depends for its busi? ness almost solely upon its insurance compa? nies. In New York, thirty-five yeara ago, there was but one company. At the end of 1866, there were twenty-two; and as the coun? try grows, and as people become more im? pressed with the necessity of taking care of I themselves and their families, we may look for | a prodigious increase in the years to come. -The Democracy ot New York City are de? lighted with the decision of the National Ex? ecutive Committee in favor of New York as the place for holding the National Convention. They will now go to work and push forward to completion the magnificent new Tammany Hall in Fourteenth-street, in order that the convention may hold its deliberations there. They intend also to erect a mammoth marquee in Tompkins* Square, near by, for the special accommodation of the army of outsiders, while there is talk of having a general illumination on the evening of the day on which the nomi? nations will bo made, with salvos of artillery every hour till midnight from Union Park to the Battery. -The world, before long, will have enough trans-Atlantic cableB to satisfy its wants. France is about to have one; Spain is prepar? ing to submerge another; and the latest news from Europe says that Portugal is to have ono. The Portuguese Governr .mt has given Mr. Meddlicott, a Lisbon merchant, and Mr. Rum hall, of London, the right to form a company which shall lay down a line from Falmouth, in England, to Oporto; thence to the Azores, and from there across to the West Indies, or to Borne part of this continent. This competition will have the effect of lowering the cost of j ocean correspondence, and merchants will prefer the cable to the po?toffice for the trans? action of their business. The estimated eoBt of the proposed Portuguese line is $8,000.000. -The Washington correspondent of the Balti? more 8un writes: "'Tho regret that the services of Hon. Reverdy Johnson have not been se? cured to tho State of Maryland by Iiis re-elec? tion is universal here among the Conservatives. There has been great gratification afforded by the report that it was probable that the Legis? lature of Maryland would elect Reverdy John? son for the term for which ex-Governor Philip Francis Thomas was elected, and upon the re? signation of Reverdy Johnson of tho seat he holds until March 4, 18C9, would elect in his room some senator who could aid also by his vote in checking the {removal of the President by the impeachment process. With two Maryland senators in their places, the President cannot be removed. Without their aid it is claimed that the vote would bo large enough to secure the result for which the im? peachment was designed. -.The New York correspondent of the Phil? adelphia Ledger writes on Monday regarding the effect of the impeachment news in that ^ city: "The excitement over the events at Washington continues at fever heat, and peo- 1 pie on all hands are anxiously waiting to see 1 what is going; to turn up. Thc newspaper bul? letins arc crowded, and wherever thero are two meu ta'king, 'impeachment' is tho question discussed. Not a lew individuals, who find it difficult to repress their feelings, ore making an effort to get up a groat indignation meeting in the Park against Congress-while another set, equally irrepressible, are drumming up a demonstration against the President, but nei? ther will como to anything. The great body of the people meanwhile maintain their equa? nimity and appear to be acting on tho convic? tion that, because Congress and the President have got into a brawl, that is no reason why Tom, Dick and Harry hero should get into a worry. At the same time it cannot be denied' that the 'muddle' (if that is tho proper phra?e) has anything but a favorable influence in busi? ness circles. Capitalists are distrustful ol the future, and until the difficulty is settled one way or another, everybody will be shortening sail and keeping in shore. CHARLESTON. FRIDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 28,1868. A Matter of Coarse. Congress bas decreed that a majority of the votes actually cast in the Southern States sbnll suffice for the ratification and acceptance of the new "Republican" con? stitutions. This is but a move in the game which the Radical party managers had long ago determined to play. The time when it was the policy of Congress to deny us re? presentation in the government is past. The Southern electoral votes are wanted next November, and therefore the South must come in. The row between Congress and the Executive will not in the least affect our fate. Whatever the issu; of the im? peachment, we 6hali be reconstructed in the Radical fashion all the same. If the President should be turned out, and WADE put in his place, Congress will no longer have a scapegoat on whom to lay the odium of "obstruction," and to save its own con? sistency must open the door. If, on the other hand, the President should win, his adversaries will have all the more need of the additional strength which (as seems certain in their view) the Southern States will bring to the Radical party, in its des? perate effort to retain the control of the government. Congress has the power to admit the Southern States and means to use it. Suoh "quibbles" as the inconve? nient provisions of previous acts will not be allowed to stand in the way. The Death ot William Rathbone. It is with deep regret that we make the announcement of the death of WILLIAM RATHBONE, Esq., of Liverpool, England, which took place at his country residence near that city on the 1st instant. Mr. RATHBONE bad been connected commercially with Charleston for moro than half a cen? tury, and, in thia city, his name was the synonym of all that is honest, upright, and unswervingly true. Virtues and noble qualities are not al? ways inherited, but WILLIAM RATHBONE, descended from families distinguished by thnir henCVil*PTW,,> OT"' r^,'"a""1,'or}". proved himself by a life-time of generous deeds to be fully worthy of the high reputation of those from whom he sprang. Nor were his days wholly absorbed in the cares and am? bitions of a mercantile career. Cradled in times of political agitation, taught from his earliest years to lisp the watchwords of reform, he boldly entered the field of poli? tics and waged incessant war against every form of tyranny and wrong. It becomes us not, with the sad experience of the present condition of the South before our eyes, to discuss the wisdom of that strug? gle for the general abolition of slavery, in which WILLIAM RATHBONE bore an eminent part. The man was earnest and sincere. This was his vindication, and he did not spend all his generous sympathies upon the Indian or African slave. Strenuously did he labor for the extension of the privilege of political representation, and it was a meet reward that one of the first uses made of the municipal franchise by the enlarged constituency of Livcrpoo?, was to send WIL? LIAM RATHBONE into the City Council and, soon after, to raise him to the civic chair. In religion Mr. RATHBONE was liberal and tolerant. Strong in his own religious feelings, he was anxious to secure for all persons the most thorough religious free? dom and equality. For fifty and nine years WILLIAM RATH? BONE was the head of the house of RATH? BONE, BROS. S? Co., but for several years befoi ehis death he had altogether retired from public and business life. The house of which Mr. WILLIAM RATH? BONE was the head was one of the stoutest pillars that supported the cotton trade of Charleston. With one exception, all the leading cotton firms in this city did business with RATHBONE, BROS. & Co., and Mr. RATHBONE himself was ever regarded as the model of a liberal, enlightened and fair dealing man. What more shall be said of him who, with the snows of eighty winters upon his brow, has passed to rest eternal ? Th" j man had a full, warm heart, a quick ?ml ready tongue, a matured and cultivated mind. Eloquent in language, "thorough" in all he did, practical in every word and act, thoughtful in benevolence, sensitive to every ill that afflicts poor humanity-this was WILLIAM RATHBONE. Charleston now, through her merchants, exchanges a sad greeting with her tra as Atlantic sister. Those who have suffered belong to the brotherhood of those who suffer still. Our reverence for WILLIAM RATHBONE grew out of our knowledge of what he did and did not do; it was not even encouraged by thc magic of his presence or the fascination of his words. Because he was an honest man our ir er chnnts loved and trusted him, and now that he is dead his memory shall be garnered in our hearts, with all our own dear ones, ns one whose name was honorable, whose es? cutcheon was untarnished, whose deal h was without a fear, and whose life was without a blemish. Skilled and Educated Labor. The English people are quite disturbed >y the information that, during some three veeks, orders for machinery and engines o the amount of ?600,000 have been re ceiveJ in France. These orders would have como to England, but for the fact that the machinery oan be got in France better manufactured and cheaper than in Groat Britain. Moro than half of the orders coming from Russia, went to Creusot, a little French town of some twenty thousand inhabitants, where the mo3t careful atten? tion is paid to the scientific education of yoi-th. In America, as woll as in England, the welfare of the working classes, aa well as fae profils of capitalista, depend upon improvements in science and art. At pres? ent, the principal woollen manufactures are in Belgium, Prussia and France. The highest artistic education ia imparted in Sa sony and the Swiaa Cantons. Technical science ia confined to Continental Europe. If we had a government worthy of the name, this new, rich, undeveloped continent would lend the world in art and science. This great problem could be solved quite SB well, if Washington, with every man, woman and child therein "pre sunk in the depths of] the aea, and il : ;:e politicians were all gib? beted, which we hope they may be before this present agitation comes to an end. New Books. OLD Farra AND THE NEW EBA. By Louisa Muhlbach, author of Joseph LT., Frederick the Great, &c., &c. Translated from the German by Peter Langley. Completo in one volume. Illustrated by Gaston Foy. New York : D. Appleton & Co. Charleston : John Russell. 1868. This is the last work of Mias MUHLBACH w?ich haa been presented in English to the American public, and in it the author haa proved that her former novels on the same general subject have not exhausted the vast fend of material for the historical romance that ia found in tho eventful years of the reign of FREEDBICK the Great. "Old Fritz" beginB with the war of the Bavarian succession; and, aa the old mon? arch prepares to retire from the acene of life, the Crown Prince, the fair WILHEL? MINE EUEE, and the immortal GOETHE, ap? pear prominently upon the stage. The r.osicruciana and their so-called mysteries, the enthusiasts of the new era, the think? ing, hoping, German people, live upon the page of fiction, and the whole is enlivened ty a gleam of that unselfish love and devo? tion which Kings and Princes seldom if ever know. The popularity of Miss MUHLBACH is steadily increasing, and it need not be feared that "Old Fritz" will di8appoint those who now look upon a new novel by the distinguished German author aa an un? failing souroe of information and amuse? ment. THE ELEMENTS OF PHYSIOLOGY AND HYGIENE, by Thomas H. Huxloy, L. L. D., F. R. 8., and Wm. Jay Youmaes, M. D. New York : Apploton & Co. Charleston : John Russell. In this little scientific (realise which is intended lo serve aa a text-book for educa? tional in8tilutiona, we have a large body of facts and principles brought within the narrowest compasa of lucid presentation. The professed aim of the authors baa been to set down in plain and concise language that by which any person who desires an insight into tho principles of human physi? ology may learn with a fair prospect of hav? ing little to unlearn as the field of knowl? edge widens; and they have therefore ex? cluded from its pages any statement or doc? trine which cannot be regarded as the com? mon property of all physiologists. ?0 font.
