Prince Alfred went into the mines at Bellaret and dug out gold nuggets that had been carefully placed there for the purpose. -Hon. Robert Hooper, who has been promi? nently identified with the financial, mercantile, and manufacturing prosperity of BoBton for many years, died on Thursday at the age of seventy-seven years. -The Empress Cariotta has addressed to the Pope a touching letter, imploring his prayers for the soul of her unfortunate hus? band. Tho letter ib written in very good Italian, and exhibits no traces of the late lu? nacy of the Empress. '-Prince Napoleon wants his cousin, the Emperor, to resort to war as a means of re? storing his waning popularity, and as the only means of saving the Napoleonic dynasty. He thinks a war with Prussia for the Rhine Prov? inces would be a good movement. -There is a curious rumor in Washington that Mrs. Senator Sprague, who is quite a politician, sympathizes strongly with the Presi? dent, represents to her husband and her father, Chief Justice Chase, that it is an act of tyranny, and that Mr. Johnson has only stood up for his rights. -J. Stuart Mill writes to a lady in Michigan, that in his place in Parliament, innis writings, and by every other influence he possesses, he has long dono the best he could to promote the admission of woman, not only to political, but to all other rights, on the same conditions as men, and that he intends to persevere in this course. -The Fenian prisoners who were captured recently at Dungarvan, Ireland, were offered their pardons on condition that they would give their parole to leave the kingdom. The prisoners unanimously refused to assent to this proposition. A double guard has been placed around Newgate, where Messrs. Burke, Casey, and Shaw (the Fenians), are confined. -In Philadelphia, six women physicians re? turn incomes ranging from $2000 to $10,000 a year. In Orango, New Jersey, there is another, whose annual income ranges between $10,000 and $15,000. In this city, there is one whose income is rarely less than $20,000 a year. Some of these physicians are successful surgeons as well as capable medical practitioners. -Mr. Gathorne Hardy, in the House of Com? mons, stated that the police were perfectly advised of the intention of Fenians to blow up the wall of Clerkenwell prison, but waited to surprise tho perpetrators as they approached to light the fuse. They supposed, however, the- explosion would bo attempted at night, whereas the work was dono in broad day. -The wife of David Lewis, residing near Sharp8town, New York, last week while ascend? ing the stairs with a child in her arms and a kerosene lamp in her hand, was bumed to death through the kerosene exploding in con? sequence of the air coming down stairs and forcing the flame too near the fluid. Mr. Lewis was severely burned in trying to save her. -The plan of the English Government in regard to the pacification of Ireland embraces the following points : The consideration of the church question will be deferred until after the report of. the commissioners has been made. Another commissioner is to be appoint? ed to report on tho relation of landlord and tenant. A charter is to be granted to the new Roman Catholic University, and Irish railways are to bo subsidized. -With rele ance to telegraphic delays, it is recorded that a Massachusetts cotton manu? facturer sent a dispatch to Memphis, a few weeks ago, ordering his agent to sell his goods in store there, bnt the dispatch was not re? ceived until three days after it was sent. Meantime his goods advanced, and he made $7000 in consequence. He does not propose to sue the telegraph company for damages, but if prices had gone down instead of up, he would probably have taken a different course. -An important opinion was delivered on Monday, in the United States Supreme Court, by Justice Nelson, in the case of Snchet Mau ran vs. the Alliance Insurance Company, and four other cases. The case involved the ques? tion whether the Conferato Government was a defacio government, which was decided af? firmatively. It was held, however, that the States should not lose their status as members of the Union. This opinion has been much commented upon as possessing considerable political significance. The Chief Justice and Justice Swayne dissented. -The lost ball . . the Tuileries was very crowded. The Empress wore a robe of green crape trimmed with evergreens. Green is the color of the house Napoleon. Upon her brow flashed a bee of diamonds and rubies, which is the emblem of the Bouaparto family. Thc Princess Metternich, Austrian Ambassadress, was enveloped in a perfect cloud of white gauze. The Princess Korsakoff (Russian) woro drab ^rape. A very pretty young lady in'a pink robe, had ridiculous wings of white satin at the back. But still more ridiculous was the appearance of an English beauty, large, foll, pink and white, who wore mauve crap;-, cover? ed with every specimen of garden vegetables, from the shoulder to the feet. -At the last calling of the case of the Uni? ted States against Jefferson Davis, in the Fed? eral court in Richmond (last November), the trial was postponed at the instance of the gov? ernment, to Thursday, 26th instant, wu order, as was stated, to afford the Chief Justice of tho United States an opportunity to be present and conduct the trial. It was also agreed be? tween the oounsel of the respective parties and the court that if, as the day approached, it 'should be ascertained that the Chief Justice could not attend on the day named, tho caBe should bc informally adjourned to some other day, without requiring tho presence of the ac? cused or his counsel. A letter was received some days ago from Judgo Chase stating that it would be'out of his power to be in Eichmond on the 26th of March, and suggesting a post? ponement to the 9th of April. But since that lotter was written the impeachment proceed? ings against thc President have been institu? ted, requiring the presence of Judge Chase in "Washington for an indefinite period. It is, therefore, impossible to say when the case of Mr. Davis will be tried. Probably never; almost certainlv Dot till after the Presidencial election. CHARLESTON. THURSDAY MORNING, MARCH 12, 1868. Newspapers for thc Times. The great and successful newspapers all over the country agree in recognizing the necessity of giving their readers all the news that is of value, in a form so compact and convenient as to enable them to get what is really of interest in th? easiest way, and with the least consumption of time. It is hardly necessary to say that this is the principle upon which THE DAILT NEWS is conducted. The days have gone by when blanket ?sheets, laden with endless political essays and speeches, and other matter of J an equally heavy character, could command success. The men of the present genera? tion are too busily engaged in the practical affairs of life, and time with them is too precious to allow them to wattle it in pur? suing through a whole column the news or the facts which may be and should be con? densed into a small paragraph. The Phil? adelphia Ledger, itself a model newspaper for the times, forcibly remarks : "The first object of the busy man in these days is to discover what is worth knowing in the news of the day, in the shortest perusal he can give to his newspaper. Hence, the journal that puts its news in the most com? pact and accessible form is the one of great? est value. Such newspapers, too, are those which are of the highest advantage to ad? vertisers, because they are the papers that are really read, those of other kinds often being merely glanced at until the mind is wearied of the great mass of matter, and are then thrown aside. These are the pa? pers, too, that are read by families of all classes, and all parties, and all persuasions, and thus enable advertisers to reach the home circles, which, after all, are the places they should carefully seek to reach. Newspapers of this kind, when otherwise well conducted, are sure to command not only temporary but permanent success, and the largest circulation." Mr. Tennyson's Late Poems. After a silence of several years the Poet Laureate of England has at last conde scended to revisit that publio who have so often hung spell-bound upon his utterances Tempted by the munificent offers of various magazine editors, he has consented to emerge from the classic retreat of Fnrring ford, whence, as from another Sabine Farm, he has been for eo long contentedly watching the world go by, and to put him self once more at the mercy of those "irre sponsible indolent reviewers," for whom he is known to entertain so sovereign a con? tempt. Whether the enterprise of these literary gentlemen was dictated by a laudable de? sire to redeem magazine verse from the slough of despond into which, since the days of HOOD and Father PROUT, it has gradually and with a tendency ever to deeper depths been declining,-or whether the more "pent-up Utica" of their own financial horizons confined their view, does not appeor; but whatever were the reason, the example set by the adventurous editor of Good Words, was abundantly followed by his brethren of the journalistic craft. The opening months of the new year have been marked in the annals of modern peri? odical literature by the appearance in divers of the numerous literary magazines of the United Kingdom of poems by JEAN INGE LOW, ROBERT BUCHANAN, Miss ROSETTI and Mr. SWINBURNE, as well as by the quartette which bore the charmed signature of ALFRED TENNTSON. An event of so much literary interest could not fail to excite some com? ment in England, and the Saturday Review in an able article, to which we cannot do better than refer our readers, has contras? ted the merits of the several competitors in this new field with much force and spirit. We have not space, however, to notice more than the four poems, which the Lau? reate, in the plenitude of his powers and of his fame, offers to the world as the latest fruits of his genius. Most of our readers have probably seen them, and we venture to say that there are none, even-and per? haps especially-the warmest admirers of the poet, whom they have not most egregi? ously disappointed. Never has a great rep? utation trifled more wantonly with an ex? pectant public than ir. crowning with its afore-gathered laurels the paltry stuff which we have here. Like the singer of old, the Laureate opens his mouth in a parable and declares sentences hard to be understood. Did ever more arrant nonsense profane the sacred name of poetry than the folio '.ring, "the very latest" of the bard of Farring ford ? 18G5-'(JG. I stood on a tower in thc wet, And New Yeal- and Old Year met, And winds were roaring and blowing : And I said, O years that meet in tears, Have ye aught that is worth the knowing ? Science enough aud exploring, Wanderers coming and going, Matter enough for deploring, But aught that is worth the knowing? Seas at my feet were flowing, Waves on the shingle l ouring, New Year roaring and blowing, And Old Year blowing and roaring. As we read, we wonder if the right hand has indeed forgotten the cunning music of the "Lotos-eaters,': and if there is in truth "the little rift within the lute"' of which he himself so sadly sang, making dumb all the subtle .melody of "Elaine" and of "Guine? vere." Nor do the other poems redeem the poet. The longest of the four, "The Victim," for which the author is said to have received a hundred guineas], would, if fathered bj a lesser fame, he esteemed, we imagine, but indifferent verse. Only in one stanza does the poet risc to anything like his wonted felicity of expression. There is something ef the picturesque power of j Mariana in the second verse, which gains, however, by comparison with thc common place which surrounds it. The third poem of the series, which bears the enigmatical title, "Wages," Mr. TENNYSON has himself | aptly described in a well-known line from an earlier poem. It is, indeed, "a tale of | little meaning, though the words are strong." It has been already published in these columns, and will hardly bear repeti? tion here. The verses "On Receiving a Spiteful Let? ter," might, as the Saturday Review suggests, have been improved by a few more months' careful elaboration. Some envious poetas? ter, who does not see why his verses should not be as well received by the public as are those of the laureate, of whom ha?does not seem to entertain a very exaltet?pinion, vents his wrath in a spiteful letter to his more favored rival. It was certainly a very practical revenge to answer the missive in rhyme, for which the coiner no doubt ob? tained a handsome price. We cannot help thinking, however, that the spiteful verse? monger must have reaped some consolation from the reply. It would be hard, indeed, if | he could not do better than that. No doubt he regretfully exclaimed on reading it, "0, si sie omnia !" Considerable interest, according to the London Fun, has been excited as to who sent Mr. TENNYSON the spiteful letter re? ferred to. Ia an article of some hu? mor, that paper professes to present the answers of several of the more prominent rhymesters of the day to the question "Was it you ?"' We have only room, however, for Mr. SWINBURNE'S reply, which we have no doubt will be found eminently convincing : "Sick of the perfume of praise, and faint with the fervid caresses, Flushing his face with a flame that is fair, like the blood on a dove; Weary of pangs that have pleased him, tho poet refrains and confesses, Shrinks from the rapture of death, and tho lips and the languors of love: The rootless rose of delight and the love that lasts only to blossom; Blossom and die without fruit, as the kisses that feed and not fill; Famishing pleasure dry-lipped, with the sting and the stain on her bosom, And all of a sin that ia good, and all of a pood that is mr "This explicit language of Mr. SWIN? BURNE'S," says the Fun, "will, we are sure, be satisfactory to all our readers. No explanation could make his reply clearer and more readily intelligible." M S?t. FOR SALE, ONE BREAD CART.
