NEWS SUMMARY. -Gold closed weaker at New York yesterday at 394. -The New York cotton market opened firm, but closed dull and a shade lower. Sales 2800 bales, at 25.ja25jr3. -The Liverpool cotton market became easier; but closed finn. Salea 12,000 bales. Uplands, on the spot, 10 jd. to IO4d. -Gambling ia reported to be alarmingly on the increase among the fast youth of Paris at a certain club. The average gains and losses are one hundred thousand dollars a night. The players place no money on the tables, but sign an L O. ?. for the amount they require, and receive counters for it, the obligation be? ing to cash their indebtedness within a fort? night. -General Grant's father informs the public through the Ledger that hiB son was a very good salesman of-leather, because "he had a faculty to entertain people in conversation, although he talked but little himself.'' He also says that at the beginning of the war Grant, or rather his wife, owned three "very likely slaves" in llissouri; but he told them to go free, without waiting for any proclamation on the subject. -With reference to the impeachment, it is said to be a rather singular coincidence that the last previous case of impeachment was that of Judge Humphreys, of Tennessee, who was impeached upon the testimony of Andrew Johnson; and that one of the managers prose? cuting that impeachment was Mr. Pendleton, who is a presidential rival of Mr. Johnson for the Democratic nomination. -A Washington dispatch says that the Ways and Means Committee are endeavoring to fix upon a revenue system which will be reliable for $800,000,000. Their present hope is to se? cure fifty million dollars from whiskey, twenty five millions from tobacco, fifteen millions from oils, twenty millions from stamps, fifteen millions from licenses, thirty millions from in? comes, eight millions from railroads, and the balance from customs. -A moustache spoon is said to be one of the latest Yankee inventions, the object being to provide a spoon by means of which soap, medi? cine, etc., may be carried to the mouth without liability of being spilled or of soiling the mous? tache. The invention consists in a movable eover so combined with the bowl of the spoon that it may cover the greater portion. It also consists in tho combination of a lever and a spring with the spoon and the cover, so that the latter may be readily closed or opened. -In the Italian Parliament, a member has called the attention of the government to a regular traffic that exists in Italian music boys. The mode of operation is to go through the poor districts of Italy and purchase the boys of their parents for a small sum, and then transport them to London or New York. The member farther asserted, of his own knowl? edge, having for many years lived in England, that a company existed in London that had made a large fortune by engaging in this traffic. -The Supreme Court of the State of New York has decided that an express company, as common carriers, may limit their liability by express contract; but in order to make such contract tho company must not only call the attention of the other contracting party to the terms made by them, but there must be au as? cent to those terms by the other party. That is, a notice printed on a receipt to the effect that the company will not hold itself liable for the value of the article beyond the sum of $30, is of no value whatever, and does not release the company from its liabilities. -Eev. S. H. Tyng, Jr., convicted of violat? ing thc canons of the Episcopal Church in preaching in the parish ot Rev. Dr. Stubbs, in New BiunBWick, N. J., against the reiterated protest of the latter, was publicly reprimanded in tho church of the Transfiguration, in New York city, on Saturday, by Bishop Potter, in presence of three clergymen. The church was crowded. At twelve o'clock Bishop Potter, ac? companied by Rev. P>.. McYikar, Rev. Dr. Eigenbroclt, Rev. Dr. Dix, Rev. Dr. George H. Houghton, Rev. Dr. Hoffman, Rev. Messrs. Hollingwork and Moore, entered the chancel. The Bishop delivered his admonition, which was very long, and partook of the nature of an argument reviewing the entire case. Rev. Dr. Tyng offered a protest, as counsel for his son, but the Bishop refuse i to hear it. -The Internal Revenue Bill, which passed the House of Representatives on Tuesday last with but two dissenting votes, and is now pending in the Senate, repealed all parts of the Internal Revenue laws which lay a tax upon domestic manufactures, excepting so much of them as relats to tho taxes imposed on gas made of coal, wholly or in part, or of any other material; on i?uniinating, lubricating or other mineral oils or articles the products of the dis? tillation, redistillation or refining of crude pe? troleum, or of a single distillation of coal, shale, peat, asphaltum, or other bituminous substances; on wines and on snuff, and all the other manufactures of tobacco, including cigar? ettes, cigars and cheroots. The particular por? tions of the law repealed, are sections 91 and 95 of the Internal Revenue law of June 30, 1861, and subsequent acts amendatory of these sections, and the repeal is to take effect on and after May 1st, 181)3. -The real cause of Stautons intrenchments has at last leaked out, although great care has been taken to keep thc matter a profound secret. Here is the story : "A detective em? ployed by Mr. Stanton to bring Lim early in? telligence of any danger that might threaten the safety of his oflicial sanctuary, appeared before him on that day and imparted the start? ling intelligence that Mosby, the famous rebel guerilla 0: Virginia during the war, had organ? ized a force in the country adjacent to the Po? tomac River, and was prepared to enter Wash? ington, surround the War Department, and seize the refractory Secretary of War, so called. What disposition was thea to have been made of the illustrious pnsouer was p.ot clearly known, but the most uncomfortable visions filled the mind of the nervous Stanton, and he at once ordered out a force of seventy-five men. The force was held under marching orders to move to the scene of action at a mo? ment's notice. At night while the weather was nuite cold, a strong guard was sent to the Long Bridge across the Potomac to look out for the approach of the enemy aud contest the ?la-u>t. ' iToasckecl in rte edd tight a:r ti? the Leu.,- Bridge for two aights^&ct war doomed re- Sisaopointmeat, ::" SiOSjymacs his appearance Ti. rs it was resolved to loci the rear of the War L<.rartmc-i:t ir. oidcr t:rat tLero .-Lo-.?J U i ut OJO onirance, which it was thought tue Forty-foaith Regiment, assisted by the Twelfth Raiment of infantry arid thc Fifth Cavalry, would be abie to hold against any force that couid be brought upon it.:' -The New York World closes an article upon the New Hampshire election and its results a3 follows: "At thc 6ame rate cf Democratic gain as in New Hampshire, wc shall keep Connecti? cut by an increased majority, and perhaps carn- Maine. We shali carry New York by an increased majority; New Jersey by an increased majoritv: Pennsylvania by au increased ma joritv; Ohio bv an increased majority; Califor? nia bv an increased majority; we shad retain Maryland, Delaware and Kentucky without an effort; and we havo escelleut chances for gain? ing enough more to make a handsome majori? ty in thc Electoral Colleges. As the Republi? cans cannot hold their own in New England, they must lose prodigiously elsewhere. Nor is this a mere inference. At the same time that we have been making small and slow gains in New Hampshire, the general drift of the town elections in New York, and other States, shows great Democratic gains." CHARLESTON. TfJESDAY MORNING, MARCH 17, 1868. St. Patrick's Day. There is one day in the year when the thoughts of every Irishman turn with es? pecial fondness to that fair isle, seated on the broad bosom of the Atlantic, which has won through the lofty deeds of her sons a lofty and enduring renown. Around Ireland cluster the memories of the valour of the soldier, the fire of the poet, the wisdom of the statesman, the silvery tongue of the orator, the honesty of men, the chastity of women; and on St. Patrick's day every Irishman, old and young,, is dreaming and thinking of home. Whether he live under the burning sun O? the tropics, amid the icy wastes of the regions of perpetual snow, on the pampas of South America, in the busy cities of the North, on the plains of the far West, in the mines of California, or on the cotton fields of Carolina, for this day he is wholly Irish in thought, word and deed, all and ever for Ireland. It was right and proper that a race which has set its seal on a thousand walls, which has had the universe as its battle-ground, which bas built up cities, and given the riches of its genius and labor to West and East, North and South, should have one grand festal day, when each of its wander? ing members might place an offering of love on the common altar, and vow renewed alle? giance to that luxuriant land which may not yet be free. St. Patrick's day is the link which unites Irishman with Irishman the wide world over;-it is the tie thatjoinB them in a perpetual league of fellowship and love. On this day grudging and bit? terness must be buried out of sight, and from sunrise to sunrise mirth and hilarity should govern and prevail. Centuries of alien dominion, decades of misunderstanding have neither weakened faith nor extinguished hope. Erin mourns the children whom she has lost, and grieves that they who should of right gather the fruits of her soil and garner up the abun? dance of her wealth should have been driven from her shores by the iron rod of neces? sity. But she does not fear or falter; and is still confident that the time will come when those who have done so much for others may watch and work for her. On this St. Patrick's day, whatever the gloom of the future, let every eon of the Emerald Isle be joyous, blythe and gay. It is useless to seek trouble ere it comes, and the few hours now given to merriment and mirth will wipe the cobwebs from the brain, restore to the hand its wonted cun? ning, and enliven every Irish heart with brightness and with trust. But wbilo the laugh is loudest, while the eye is most bright and the voice most full, Erin must not be forgotten; and, on this the day of good St. Patrick, from every quarter and every clime, should rise up in fervor the simple, earnest prayer-God bless Ireland. Another Chance to Register. General CANDY in his order in reference to the coming elections in South Carolina under the Reconstruction acts, provides that there shall be another opportunity given to all who are entitled to the franchise according to those acts to secure their privilege by placing their names on the list of registered voters. We trust that not one of our citizens, whose claims to loyalty will pass muster under the new dispensation, will fail to avail himself of this last chance to obtain the not very ex? clusive, yet not wholly unimportant prerog? ative of the citizen. These are practical times; and ordinary prudence in our own behalf, as well as a decent regard for the common welfare, demands that no good citi? zen should lightly sacrifice so substantial an advantage as the ballot may at any time prove to be, to a mawkish but natural re? pugnance to mingle in the motley concourse which now-a-days gathers around the pells. We know not how soon an issue may arise in which the vote of every right-minded man may be of the last importance. Let us take care now that, when the time comes, our hands shall not be tied. A Nice (?ucstion. The Northern Radicals have eagerly seized upon the iiimsy pretext which some? body lately devised for the exclusion of negroes from Congressional honors, namely that the emancipated slaves had not been citizens long enough to render them eligible as members of Congress under thc provis? ions of the constitution. But in their hypocritical zeal for strict construction of constitutional limitations thc dominant party seem to have overlooked thc fact that the negroes of the South were not all slaves. How will they manage to ignore the claims of those who were never "sot free," but who were freemen always and the sons of freemen ? .Tn the light of the Radical gos? pel can these colored "men and brethren" be rejected as ineligible ? izante.

MAPES' MTEOGEMZED SUPEB-PHOS PHATE OF LIME. rIE PRACTICAL EXPERIENCE GIVEN BELOW of planters during the past season, fully establish all the advantages claimed for thia well-known FER? TILIZER: Received the highest premium awarded to Ferd;, iz ere by the American Institute of New York, held October, 1807. For foll report, with analysis made by the Com. mlttee of the Institute, composed of Dr. C. E. Boos, Professor J. G. POHLE, and other prominent Chem? ists, see pamphlets. The oUstlnguiched feature of thia SUPER-PHOS? PHATE from other similar Fertilisers is, that all of its ingredients art of animaljprigm, and art either ???We m voter, or ir. c'< condition to quickly become soluble in the soil and be takeraop by the crop. Contains no inert or xiineral material?. The proper reIative>proportion of the Ingredients in MAPES' 8CPER-PH0SPHATE to meet the re? quirements of the Cotton crop on Georgia and South Carolina soils, is folly proved by the experience of planters who testified that wherever applied, even to land noted for rusting cotton, the disease ls entirely corrected, and a healthy, vlgcrous growth produced. On thc same land Peruvian Guano and other f?rtil, lzers have failed to secure a healthy growth. REPORTS FROM PLASTERS, 1867. For Letters in full set Descriptive Pamphlet. Dr. E. M. BOXALL, Christ Church Parish, writes: Applied at the rate of 150 tc 300 pounds per acre on 11th ?pru, on 22 acres blue clay land, a good deal worn from being planted in cotton from 1857 to 1867, with only one year's rest during that time, and not? withstanding the long continued cold and heavy rain, and gales during the spring and summer, about the first of September the crop on this field waa estima? ted by some of our best J achtes to promise a yield of 180 to 200 pounds fine Sea island Cotton Lint to the acre. Notwithstanding themvages of the caterpillar, the first cotton picked was .-'rom the field on which MAPES' PHOSPHATE was used, and it has made about 65 pounds to thc acre, while no other man? ured land made over 16pounds. Has used MAPES' PHOSPHATE on melons, potatoes and the garden with satisfactory results. THOMAS 8. SALTES, Washington County, Ga, re? ports that seventy-five pounds per acre on old land increased both the Cotton aad the Corn three-fold, considers lt fax more economical than Peruvian Guano. Dr. E. PASSONS, Sondersvule, Washington County Ga., saya: _ "My observation ia that MAPES' SUPER-PHOS? PHATE is a preventive against rust in Cotton. Has about doubled the Cotton and trebled the Corn. Eas done better than Peruvian Guano per pound." J. W. SCOTT, of some section, reporta: "That his crop m?nured with Peruvian Guano waa far more effected by drought and excessive raina than where MAPES* 8UPER-PH05iPHATE was used. Shall use MAPES' in preference to any fertilizer he has seen used by his neighbors." W. H. SPASZB, EH ton ton, Ga,, reports "On land abouc half covered with sedge, and which had not been cultivated In two years, when the manure was put on, badly manured, crop wonld yield two pounds where the naman axed would yield one." B. B. HAMILTON, Amer!CUB, Ga. reporta: "Obtained tho most satisfactory results from MAPES' SUPER-PHOSPHATE, applying it aa a top dressing. Considered to have had the best garden this year In Southwestern Georgia." W. J. ANDEBSON, Fort ViiUey.Ga., reports: "MAPES' 8UPEE-PB0SPHATE has doubled the crop of cotton In every caie reported, and some re. port it has more than doubled their crop. On wheat and oats the results are very satisfactory." D. A. WARNOCK, Beach Eranch, S. C., reports "On land which always rusted cotton, increased the crop twofold; se fine cotton aa he has seen this year. Prevented rust. Four rows unmanured rust? ed in August. Everything the MAPES* SUPER. PHOSPHATE was tried on did welt. Cotton stood the cold weather in 8pring; kept perfectly green, and growed flnc'.y; hoe beat Peruvian Quana in his neighborhood. Believes it to be the BEST Manure now in use." E. R. LILES, Lliesvule, Anson County, N. C., re? ports "As compared with Peruvian Guano andBaugh's Super-Phosphate, the result was decidedly in favor of MAPES' SUPHER-PH03PHATE; atnibuted.be. youd doubt, to the fact that the ravages of the rust were not, by a marked difference, so severe where lt was applied os where the other manures were. JAMES MCMEEKTN, Alston, 8. C., reports: "Used a ton of Peruvian, and found the result but one half as compared \ntk those from MAPES SUPER-PHOSPHATE. Soil mostly sandy, with clay subsoil. Marked difference In the size of the bolls, in fuvor of MAPES' S UPEB-PHOSPHATE. On Cot? ton plants the increased growth waa about 100 per cont," Jons R. HAU:, Mims, S. C.: "Cotton was more vigorous and healthy, and ma. ru-ed at least two weeks earlier where MAPES' SUPER-PHOSPHATE was used as compared with other Fertilizers applied. MAPES' SUPER-PHOs PHATE produced luo pounds per acre more Cotton than Rhodes' Super-Phosphate, and 50 pounds per acre more than Soluble Pacific Guano. Same quan? tity of each, 150 pounds, used to the acre, cultivated in the same manner. MAPES' SUPER-PHOSPHATE more than doubled the yield of Cotton. B. s. VETOING, Christ Church Parish, S. C., re? ports: "One application, 200 pounds MAPES' SUPER? PHOSPHATE, per acre, made the cotton grow to the height of six feet, where it grew only two feet the year before. Considers MAPES' SUPER-PHOS? PHATE the best Fertilizer for SEA ISLAND COT. TON, and would safely recommend it to all plant? ers." S. C. ME ASS, Spartanburg, S. C., writes: "Used 240 pounds per acre, applied May 18th. Can safely say never saw a more vigorous growth impart ed to cotton from the use of any manure. Satisfied the use of MAPES' SUPER-PHOSPHATE pays hand? somely," Rev. W. A. MESETWETHEB, Valle Cruels, near Co lumbla, S. C., reports: "MAPES'SUPER-PHOSPHATE has given perfect satisfaction, and that it permanently improves the soil Has no hesitation in saying it is the special manure for thc turnip and Irish potato." P. C. PENDLETON, Valdoaton, Ga., writes "MAPES' SUPER-PHOSPHATE has exceeded my most sanguine expectations. The effects of its use on Corn, Peas aud Garden Vegetables waa moat marked. If it can be always kept up to the stan dard it must take the piefc-rence of all fertilizers in M. B. HrsTEs, Quitman, Ga., reports "Applied at the rate of 150 pounds per acre upon every alternate four rows. The result was truly as? tonishing. The manured^ rows yielded fuRy double the neighboring alternate row?." TERMS-?G5 A TON, CASH. TESTE SALES CAN BE ARRANGED FOBj EATABLE TN NOVEMBER. H. W.
