D., Rector of Trinity Church, Geneva, New York, was unanimously elected Bishop of Vermont by the Episcopal Convention in Burlington, on Wednesday. -Brigham Young, who, as every one knows, has a large and constantly increasing house? hold has established a cotton faet?n-, to meet the demand for goods. He believes in foster? ing domestic industry. -A corps of artists connected with the prin? cipal illustrated weeklies are en route to Wash? ington, to photograph the scene in the high court of impeachment. A special artist from the London Illustrated News is said to be among them. -In Vienna, a woman has just confessed that, during the last ten years, she and her father had committed sixteen murders for money. Under her direction a search has been made, which resulted in the finding of all "the skeletons. -A bill is before tbe California Legislature providing that persons who shah plant high? ways with trees and sustain the growth of the same for five years, shall have a reduction of their tax at the rate of one dollar annually for every tree thus planted. -The building of the Great Exposition in the Champ de Mars, Paris, which cost 11,000, 000 francs, bas been sold for 1,010,000 cranes. It was somewhat in the way of the military displays to which the Champ is devoted, and the military insisted" on its removal. -Colonel M. C. Galloway, editor of the Mem? phis Avalanche, was arrested on Wendesday night and confined in jail under a warrant issued by Judge Hunter, of the Criminal Court, sentencing him to ten days' imprisonment and a fine of ten dollars, for an article in the avalanche relative to the arrest of the local sdi tor of that paper by Judge Hunter. -Governor Baker, of Louisiana, appeared >ef ore the United States Commissioner in New Means on Tuesday, to answer to a charge of perjury in taking the oath of office, and was re? leased an giving bonds in two thousand dol? lars to appear at some future day. The affida rit making the charge against him is signed 'Henry Dennis-his mark." Dennis is a negro. -A new method of propelling steamboats is ihortly to be exhibited. The propelling power is steam, but is to be used in an entirely dif? ferent manner from that common at present, rhe ponderous, expensive, and dangerous narine engines, with their enormous shafts, ranks, and walking-beams, are to be done i way with, and the power is to be applied di? rectly to the periphery of the paddle wheel. -That venerable bche of Baltimore, Mad line Bonaparte, widow of Jerome, preserves ber face from wrinkles by abstaining from both laughter and tears. She also nightly en? cases her taper fingers in metallic thimbles, and has done so for the last forty years. "Con? sequently," says Jenkins, "her hand retains much of-its original symmetry, and the decay jf her charms is as sweet and as faultless as bhe falling leaves of the rose." -In Boston, the bootblacks and newsboys are licensed. Eaoh bootblack has his stand, which is located in a place where it will not in? terfere with the convenience of the public. The issuing of licenses is done in the most syste? matic manner. No license is issued to any boy who does not attend school during some portion of the day, and those who do not attend the public schools are required to attend the news? boys' school at least two hours each day. A very large portion, nearly all, in fact, of the boys who apply for licenses are members of the public schools of the city. Each boy receives % leather badge to be worn on his hat or cap while pursuing his occupation. This badge contains the word "Licensed," and also the number of his license in polished letters. The bootblacks also have the letter "B" upon their badges. The boys are not required to pay anything for their licenses, but for their badges they pay $125, which vrill be refunded when required, if properly used. A record is kept of all the boys Licensed, with their age, the school they attend, and the officer who has charge of their district. The applications for newsboys' licenses are very numerous, and it is thought that probably three hundred will be issued be? fore all are supplied. -The most horrible outrages are reported as having been committed by the bandits in some of the Mexican provinces. The Gaudalajara correspondent of the Brownsville Banchero writes, on the 16th ultimo; "Chavez and his band, after disappearing from before Matar?an, were not heard from for several days. The night before last, while attending a dance in one of the San Pedro gardens, several of the beautiful daughters of our wealthiest families were seized by a large number o? masked vil? lains and carried away. This morning Inez de T. was found at the same garden a raving lu? natic. Her hair had been shaven, her breasts cut open, and her person violated, and reason dethroned through her sufferings. She was nearly naked. On her was found a letter from Chavez, saying that unless $200.000 in gold waa sent to his camp in tho mountains west of Guadalajara, all ot the other five ladies would be similarly treated. The money was aeut, and after Chavez received it-and it had to be carried to him ou a mule with a single ser? vant-be and his companion fiends tell upon the ladies and outraged them. They then ried them on to mules and left them in charge of the servant who brought them the money. For fiendishness, for brutality, for all that is awful in crime, modern history furnishes few deeds to match this." -Ihe system of underground telegraph hues, insulated with au asphalte compound, noticed so favorably in the Par:3 Exhibition, has lately been tried witi highly satisfactory results by the royal engineers in the yard of the Brompton Barracks, at Chatham. Eng? land. This system, the invention u? IL-. Don Kid Nicoll, consist j in laying dawn a series of rigid sections, or rods of asphalte containing the wires, in trenches in tue earth, as lengths j of hon gas-pipe ave laid. These sections are :u ?boat twelve iee: lengths, tbe conducting vrires protruding at thc ends, and being alter? nately left straight ami twisted into -'eork acrowe."' In planting the lines t... straight ends ot one section are pushed into ibo '.cork? screws" of thc next, and so ou. The blow of a hammer upon the '-'cork-screws" ensures perfect contact, and wlieu tho junction is filled in with incited asphalte perfect insulation ia also effected. Inthisw.iva dozen joints may bo insulated at once. A prominent feature of this system is that the insulating material is poured iu at a temperature considerably above that of boiling water, so that if any moisture settles upon the ends of the sections it is driven off in the form of steam as soon as the melted insulator reaches it. The cost of lay? ing is one hundred dollars a mile. CHARLESTON. MONDAY MORNING, MARCH 1G: 1868. Tbe Coming Elections-An Important Order. In another column will be found au order from General CANBT, establishing regula? tions for the conduct of the elections for State officers and members of Congress, to be held on April 14, 15 and 16th next. A revising session of the Board of Regis? tration will be held, commencing fourteen days prior to the election. All persons not entitled to registration will then be strick? en from the lists, and there is the highly important provision that the Boards of Re? gistration shall add to the lists of persons en titled lo vote the names of all pers< ns who, at that time, are entitled to registration under the Reconstruction acts. Certificates of registration are to be given to voters who are removing from the dis? trict in which they registered-the elections will be superintended by the Boards of Re? gistration-the polls will be open from 6 A. M. to 6 P. M.-no candidates for election to any office to be filled at the election shall serve as judge of elections or manager in the precinct which he seeks to represent threats of violence and the carrying of deadly weapons are prohibited-no soldiers are to appear at the polling places unless as quali? fied voters, but troops will be held in hand and prepared to act promptly if the civil authorities are unable to preserve the peace. The order specifies the State officers to be voted for. and the composition of the election districts in the State. ' Disraeli. A good deal of curiosity prevails in re? gard to DISRAELI'S policy. After the great revolution in the Tory party the Secretary who led the movement and whose dexterous policy changed defeat into triumph, is now with universal applause accredited with the honors he has fairly won. The aim pur sued by a Parliamentary career of more than thirty years, is won. The wondrous Alroy realizes the vivid dreams of his youth and sways a mightier sceptre than that of the Prince of the Captivity. What '.viii not genius fired by ambition effect ? Tho most dreamy and sentimental of novelists has become the most practical of statesmen The dullest of speakers-the man who made the terrible failure of 1837, but who, as he sat down amid the derisive cheers of the House, exclaimed: "The time is coming when you will hear me!"-is now heard with pleased attention. Amid a haughty exolusire aristocracy, amid a people who hold together "close as Scotch herrings," this member of an oriental race, distinct and peculiar, and preserving a certain for eign air after so many centuries of exile in the lands of the West, stands to-day the ruler of England. The recent changes in the constitution of that country have been so radical that the administration of public affairs demand the greatest fertility of resource and the most practiced skill in direction and con? trol. In these respects no British states man has the reputation of DISRAELI. Per sonally he is very popular. He was greeted with cheers from both sides of the House when he appeared before them as Premier. He ?9 an anomaly-a Tory with Radical tendencies-and so is fitted for these very anomalous times. Between the two ex? treme parties in England he has succeeded in crushing the Whigs. He is admired by the Tories, as the politician who saved them when their overthrow was confidently predicted. He is beloved by the lower classes as the politician who has widely ex? tended the privilege of suffrage-and that in such a way as to gratify the pride of Englishmen. The fundamental maxim of the domestic policy, to which the new Premier stands committed is "the recognition of national traits as the best security for national in? stitutions." The maxim may be commended to Congress. Mr. DISRAELI believes that progress is an evolution, not a demolition. He believes that while every country must be affected by the spirit of^the age, that spirit must conform itself to the national genius, as well as to public opinion. He has accordingly succeeded in arranging the electoral franchise to the satisfaction of the people of Great Britain by adjusting it to the parish system, one of the .''dest insti? tutions ol the kingdom. Those who had a vote in the local government, now have a vote in the general government. Those who were the electors for the parish, were made electors for Parliament. The pian was simple, wise and easy of accomplish? ment; it was adopted. Its success, at once confirmed and consummated the reputation of its projector. The policy of DISRAELI toward Ireland will be conservative and kindly. He is pledged to treat that distracted dependency '.with tender regard." It will be au awk? ward business- to redress the evils of which Irishmen complain, and that in such a way as will be agreeable to the tempe1:' of the English people. lu this instance the labor of the statesman is no: to develope. but to undo. He must carry cu c peaceful r?vo? lution. Ia dealing with Ireland ?ie must coasult the national traits anti oM ins'.itu tious of that country-net of England. ? Will the English submit tu the reversal of a uclicy which extends back to the days ci j CROMWELL and even of ELIZABETH ! A few years ago the question coull have been aa ^'..irei with a decided negative. Bu: per? haps '.he Feuiia excitement may lead the English Parliament and people io accept the conciliatory measures of DISRAELI. In regard to the foreign policy of the new administration the general statement is made that thc course adopted by Lord DERBY, will still be pursued. Besides an assurance is given to all foreign govern? ments of "a generous sympathy with their institutions." This official declaration, as well as the temper of the Parliamentary houses, makes it pretty certain that Eng? land will not go to war, in regard to the j Alabama complication, unless some rash act of the American Congress shall necessi? tate the conflict. A conservative legisla? ture, and a dignified, courteous and politic Premier guarantee peace, if peace can be maintained consistently with honor.
