On Monday evening the commencement of the New York Medical College for women was held, and, in the presence of a large audience, eight ladies received diplomas of graduation, thc address in presenting the diplomas being made by a lady, Mrs. D.

It never has walked a step since it was made. Il was carried from tho shop where it was mado to an ice-cream gar? den; then it was propped up, so that its feet did not touch the ground, and set agoing. Its legs swung back and forth in tho empty air, but that was all. -Forney grows bolder as impeachment ad? vances, and charges the President with "su? preme audacity in asking delay upon the frivo? lous excuse of preparing to defend himself.' He furthermore announces that the "case is made up and disposed of," which may be honest, but is certainly disgraceful in any? one-but Forney, j I -Gran?, is said to be afraid of Butler since I ( the latter loomed up ?9 grand panjandrum of impeachment, and to i egret the epithet of "bottled." which Rawlings anti Badeau put in the General's mouth.

The latter claims that before next sum? mer a new republic will be established from | | M&tamoras to Mazatlan. Lopez, the betrayer of Maximilian, has been imprisoned in Mexico.

The weapons used were Trench navy broad swords whetted up to keennass. The parties wero experts, sec? onded by equally good swordsmen. The com? bat lasted a few minutes only, when one con? sist ant received a cul over tho ricrht temple anti the other a serious wound in the left wrist in his successful endeavor to ward off a deadly blow of his adversary aimed at his ab rtorac .. The combat was then arrested, and the wounded parties received attention cf their physicians. The floor upon which this desperate duel took piace was literally covered with blood, which flowed in great profusion from tho wounds of both combatants. Tho cause ot tho duel was of a personal character and lor a wonder no lady was connected with the affair. CHARLESTON. MONDAY MORNING, MARCH 30, 18GS. Tile Proposed Convention. It is proposed to hold a convention at Columbia on Thursday next lo consider, it is presumed, what is necessary to be done for the well-being of the State and tho avoiding of the manifold dangers with which this people is threatened. This proposition, however, is open to the grave objection that, if held at the time sugges? ted, it cannot represent, in the true sense of representation, the feelings, determina? tions and desires of the citizens of South Carolina. No sufficient time has been al? lowed or warning given, and if thc con? vention be held on Thursday it cannot rea? sonably include delegates from this district or from many other districts in the State. The convention, whenever held, should be composed of delegates chosen delibe? rately by the people of each district, and who are fully acquainted with the wishes and intentions of their constituents. It should be above mere party names, and, wiile avoiding those irritating questions in which there is more of idea than of fact, should so behave as to retain the confidence of the whole State and secure the hearty co-operation of every conservative man within our borders. This is necessary be? cause only a united and persistent action, in a well defined manner and direction, can work any lasting benefit or give to right any substantial protection. This is no time for rash or hasty meas? ures,-for thinking once and acting twice, for the scheming of disappointed politicians, for the dogmatism of hereditary malcon? tents, for the clamor of those whose peace is war eternal. It is a time, on the con? trary, when the people may, and should, take counsel together, when they may meet to consider where lies the division between :ustom and principle. It is a time, above ill, when the people should be sober, pru lent and just, behaving in all things with i dignity, a forbearance and a calmness worthy of them and their cause. Tnt President's Fate. The preliminary moves in the matter of impeachment have been completed and tu? lay the trial of the President will begin in ?amest. The result is not doubtful, nor ?viii it be long delayed. It is a predeter? mined fact that tho President is to be thrust out of office and BEN WADE thrust in. Nor is this all. Under the WADE regime, it is authoritatively announced, the aumber of Judges in the Supreme Court will be raised to thirteen, thus relieving the Radical mind for the future of all appre? hension in regard to that adverse majority which ha? haunted it for months past. The remedy is certainly simple, and will un? questionably prove effectual, but how the jountry will regard this method of "stack? ing" the highest tribunal in the land is jar Jly a matter of doubt. Measures like .bese can but hasten the retribution, cer ain though long deferred, which awaits the party and its leaders, who are now in power. The National Finances. While the Radicals seem to have matters, politically, all their own way at Washing on, the more far-seeing among them are mowing unmistakable symptoms of alarm it the plight to which their party policy las already brought the finances of the :ountry. The demagogues who rule upon he floors of Congress, having in view thc :oming Presidential election, seek by every ?xpedient, and at whatever cost, to make political capital for themselves by tempora r elieving the people from taxation. Secretary MCCSXLOCU has vainly remon? strated against theBe time-serving measures, although his views are sustained by some of he shrewdest of the Republicans. Senator MORRILL, who was, it will be remembered, he Chairman of the House Committee on (Yays and Means during the war, regards Mr. SHERMAN'S exhibit that the deficit will aot be over SIG,000,000 at the close of the ?scnl year 18CS-C9, as fallacious. To bring x down to that, Mr. SHERM IN has estimated ] he receipts from the whiskey tax at $50, XiO.OOO, and has placed the receipts from ?cornes at an equally high ligure, nor has ie taken into calculation an annual increase )l* the public debt for several years to come c consequence of subsidies to railroads. "I tay," remarked Mr. MORRILL, "and I am .villing to have it put upon the record, that :he deficit, instead of being 310,000,000 will more than SJO,000.000!" This is an em? phatic declaration, but the senator from Vermont is a practical business man, and his statement was indorsed by Mr. FESSEN DEX, who believes that the deficiency will bi even greater. ' Then," continued Mr. FESSENDEN, "wc shall have to go into thc parket to borrow money, and to go there nuder a very beautiful state of circumstan? ces, too, with a large portion of thc mem? bers of Congress talking about rei udiation is a matter of fact". Mr.WASHBURNE, of Illinois, Chairman of the House Committee m Appropriations, is equally pointed in iis warnings against reducing taxations, but increasing appropriations. "Your rev? enues," said he, "will not be enough to meet your expenses. The country will be bankrupted, dishonored, disgraced. Yet the Republican Party is responsible to the country for the legislation of this Congress, and the country will hold us to that respon? sibility." These admonit ons, however, are all un? heeded, and the people at large cannot be expected to complain of any law that gives them, even for a time, some little relief from the load of taxation that is now crushing them aud their industries to the ground.

J^-ICK OF THE WOODS tit NICK OF THE WOODS! IS THE "FIRESIDE COMPANION." GEORTE MUNRO & CO., HAVE AT AN IM menso expense, secured the exclusive right of pub? lishing that wonderful story of Border Life, "NICE OF THE WOODS!" in the "FTBESTDE COMPANION," which wfll be com meaced in No. 24 of that popular journal, issued on April 2nd. "NICK OF THE WOODS" is the most remarkable and exciting story of the k ind that ever appeared, and is the Founiain-head from which myriads of lidian talcs have been derived. >ome of tho characters are unequalled in the whole range of Fiction for a certain kind of weired, myste? rious interest that hangs around them. For instance, the terrible Jibbonainosay, the " Spirit .hit walks," Bloody Nathan, the " Man of Peace," and Roaring Balph Stackpole, the " Ramping Tiger of the Roiling Fork," who was equally at home whether stealing Red men's scalps, or a pale face's horse. The detire to r. a i a story of such intense iuteiest, of course, will be universal, and we trust that our friends will order tho paper of their newsdealers in season, to prevent disappointment The FinssinE COMPANION ls the best Family Story Paper published. It is for sale by all Newsdealers. Price, 0 cents a copy: $3 a year; 4 coptes 910; or 9 copies for $20. GEORGE MUNRO A 00., No. 137 William-street, New Yolk. March 30 3 jp USSELL'S BOOK STORE.

The RO ?UNDA is a PURE NATURAL GUANO (that term nunderstood tornean the excrement of fish-eat . irds), as the large per centage of organic mat :r sufficiently attesta, and aa found upon the Island f Redunda, in the very state as Imported and sold ) consumers. Tho regularity and uniformity of the fineness and rendition of the various cargoes already imported by s into the United States, tested by the analysis of ie most eminent Chemists of this country and Eu Dpe, is sufficient proof of its origin and a guarantee four ability to furnish this Guano of the quality nd purity represented. The PRICE of the RODUNDA GUANO is not the ?st unimportant in these daya of agricultural com cation and pecuniary embarrassment The very low price at which it can be sold places it .ithin th : reach of every farmer, and avoids the risk f large loss frequently Incurred by failures of the ropa in the purchase of high priced fertilizers, pn the preparation of lands for Wheat and other ?reals this Guano possesses properties that reader . more desirable tor these crops than any yet offered i the public.
