Fretz, of San Francisco. -The running time between Baltimore and Washington has been diminished twelve min? utes by the construction of a cut-off on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad near Baltimore. -Arrangements are being made in San Fran? cisco to give a banquet to Anson Burlingame and the Chinese Embassy, lt is expected that the affair will be on a gi and scale. * -The New York car companies propose the Berlin system of issuing numbered tickets to passengers to prevent conductors "knocking down fair," if possible. -One of the severest epidemics of scarlet fever ever known in this country has prevailed in the City of Boston during the past year, and still continues, though the number of deaths is gradually diminishing. -The Brownsville Ranchero announces that Miguel Lopez, Maximilian's betrayer, has been arrested and imprisoned for not complying with an order from the government to leave Mexican territory. -The fonds of the Republican campaign committee are exhausted, and a member of the committee has gone to New York to solicit aid for the pending campaign in the unrecon? structed States. -People in Cheyenne are informed of the crime for which persons are lynched by observ? ing the tree from which their bodies depend. There is a special tree for each crime in the code Cheyenne. -The exciting steamboat race from New Or? leans to Vicksburg^ between the "Champion of the Waters" and the "Robert E. Lee," has re? sulted in favor of the Champion, which boat still retains the "horns," the emblem of victo? ry, on her pilot house. -A Washington dispatch to the New York Commercial Advertiser says General Grant is 80 mancouvermg troops as to virtually neutral? ize General Hancock as commander of the De? partment of the Atlantic, and place him with? out any men under his control. -The Arkansas Legislature has chosen two United States Senators, B. F. Rice and A. McLeod, and it is said they will try to procure admission to the Senate in time to vote in the impeachment trial. The new Arkansas Sena? tors are Republicans. -It is stated that the lace trade of Notting? ham, England, is now in a condition of activity unexampled within the last eight years. Every available machine is in motion, but hands are scarce. Young girls who have been only a few months at the business receive in many cases as much as 20s. a week. -Bavaria has recently broken out with vari? ous riotous demonstrations, as an evidence of the popular hatred of Prussian rule. Prussia is enforcing its conscription, which is very distasteful; and at one town, Traunstein, the populace shouted "We will not be Prussians," and, in spite of the soldierv, sacked the, town hall. -The Geneva Chamber of Commerce, in Switzerland, has sent Congress an address, which was presented to the House this week, asking the United States to discontinue, as speedily as possible, the use of paper money. It says the Swiss have never tolerated the ex? istence of any kind of paper money, and would have us prout by their example. -Nassau, the old-time haven of the block? ade runners, is still in a condition of govern? mental excitement. The Legislature has re? fused to pass the appropriation bills, and the Governor has dissolved that body. A new election is going on, the white voters being arrayed against the blacks, and violence being threatened by both sides. -Thc New York Sun says: "Tho feat has r?nen practically accomplished cf sending two t?l?graphie dispatches at tho same time from opposite directions, over the same wire, on long distances. It will prove of great value in the construction of new lines, making only a single wire necessary, and saving the sixty or seventy dollars a mile which would be required for a second wire. It will also increase greatly the actual working power of existing compa? nies." -An English paper states that Mr. Whit? worth, the celebrated gun manufacturer, has offered to found thirty scholarships of thc an? nual value of ?100 each tor the promotion of technical instruction. This donation will re? quire an investment of ?100.000 in the English three per cents. The scholars are to be select? ed by open competition "for their intelligence and proficiency in the theory and practice of mechanics and its cognate sciences." -The New York World and Tribune are en? joying themselves hugely at the expense of their brother of the Herald. It will be recol? lected that Mr. Bennett strongly animadverted upon Congressman Van Wyck's expose of the the Gettysburg lottery scheme and gave the association an unequivocal endorsement in the columns of his paper. Now that the a nair has proved to be an unmitigated swindle, a sug geation has been made that Mr. Bennett make good the losses of the ticket-holders, inas? much as their ranks wert doubtless largely augmented by his patronage of the institu ion. On Wednesday morning a statement wa8 published to tho effect that Slr. Bennett 1 consentec to adopt this course, and that that afternoon he wouid be ready to reimbur all who presented themselves with cei tificates o? stock. This announcement, savs the Tribuue, '"drew together one of the larges crowds ever assembled in New York. The peo pie began to gather at an early hour and some, we understand, were on tho ground fore dawn. A good deal of impatience was manifested while they waited for the doors be opened, and we regTet to leam that Mr Bennett's very handsome behavior was not duly appreciated, many ili-conditioned fellows affecting to doubt whether the money would be refunded, and even going so far as to damn Mr. Bennett very distinctly. After awhile the veteran joarnnlist appeared, followed Mr. James Gordon Bennett, Jr. who carried in a striped carpet-bag the accumulated vings of his father's long and honorable reer. Tito party were hoisted up stairs over the heads of the crot\ d and the process of pay iug out commenced, lasting until 4 o'clock when the bueiness was necessarily suspended until to-day (Thursday;, when we understand that the yacht Henrietta will be sold at auc tion in the Herald editorial rooms, and the amount realized from the sale will be de voted co the liquidation of the outstanding claims." -Advir-es from Havana give many muddled reports concerning the stale of things in the West Indies, Honduras and adjacent parts. Hayti, one of our cherished 3ister republics the civil war is geing on briskly, the "r?volu tionists" being aided and abetted, it ia said, Americans. The American Minister was ex pected daily at Port-au-Prince. In Honduras an American colony has made arrangements found a settlement, and a national bank is be established in that republic. Of course the prosperity of the country ia now a fixed fact In Yucatan it is thought that England has i taken possession of one of the provinces, and the papers "deplore the fact that thirty tho sand natives are paying tribute to foreigners Yucatan thus presents a sad contrast to our own free country, where conquered millions pay tribute only to their countrymen. In Venezuela revolution is gaining ground, and the President will probably be deposed. Con stitutionid government is thus being extended over that region. In Nassau an election was being held on the 12th inst., and "at the pol] color was arrayed against color." -Telegraphic signals, it is stated, are now designed for use on shipboard. On a naval steamer, a circular dial, with movable bands and indicatory words, is titted on deck; a simi lar dial is placed in the engine-room, or on the gun-deck, or at the rudder, each connected by metallic air tubes with the one on deck. The officer wishing to givo an order, turns a handle fitted in ;he side of the dial by which he stands and instantly the same signal appears on the steersman's dial, and he obeys the order. In the same way, the captain may send bis com mands to the captains of the guns, or to the engine-room. CHARLESTON. TUESDAY MORNING, APRIL 21, 1803. Tne Election in South Carolina. Enough is known of the general result of the late contest in this State to justify the conclusion that the new constitution has been ratified bj a large majority. The State officers, nominated by the Republi? cans, ht.ve likewise been elected beyond peradventure; but as regards candidates for Congress, and for State Legislature, local efforts to elect Conservative men have probably been attended with success in some of the districts. "Nine districts, which registered 38,220, polled 21,383 votes. A partial canvass of these votes Bhow 7227 for, and 4C0O against the consti? tution." So reads a dispatch to General GRAUT. We learn that the official returne, as far as they have been made up, show about 34,000 votes in favor of, and 11,000 votes against the constitution. The relative proportion of whites and blacks is not given; but it may safely be assumed that the vote of the two races is, approximately at least, represented by the vote on the constitution. .Harrlage Service t bungeet. It is not generally known that the mar? riage service of the Northern Methodist Episcopal Church bas been so altered as to obliterate every vestige of the pledge for? merly given by the bride in regard to con? jugal obedience. The reference to the Day of Judgment is also omittted-being, as Borne say, a mooted point among these in? teresting people. . The chnrge to the contracting parties used to be in the following language: "I require and charge you both (as you shall answer at the dreadful Day of Judgment, when the secrets of all hearts shall be dis? closed), that if either of you s)now," kc. The words put in parenthesis are left out. What need of so solemn a reference when in these days, as in those the Apostle speaks of, there are many who ask: ""Where is the promise of His coming.'- or why should people look for the sanctions of duty in any world beyond that secular sphere in which they live and move and have their being'.' Thc church in question seems to be quite engrossed at present with thc management of public affairs and the inculcation of radi? cal idees. So, too, the pledge of the bride to render obedierce to her husband has been stricken out. Instead of the question: "Wilt thou obey him, serve him, love, honor and keep him,'' and the declaration. N, take thee, j M, to love, cherish and obey, till death do us part," the service now reads, in the first instance, "Wilt thou love, honor and keep him:" and in the second, N. take thee, ! M, to love and to cherish." Whatever may j be urged in vindication of the change, ' there can be no question that the pledge ex? punged is scriptural, and that while mutual consideration and service is essential to the happiness of so tender and vital a relaiion as marriage establishes, there mun, never? theless, be some gradalion of authority in every well-ordered household as in every harmonious society. Where opinions differ, there must be some ultimate court of ap? peal-some decision which ends. This final j authority, not only revelation, but reason also, assigns to the husband and father. It ?3 only the idea of marriage without love that renders these ancient regulations distasteful. There can be no tyranny in the magistrac}- of love on the one h ind, or humiliation in love's service on the other. That indeed in such or such a case there shall be a limitation to marital power, law may wisely provide; for power in every sphere, even the parental, may be grossly abused. But when household authority itself is expunged, marriage becomes mere contract-a relation of convenience-o teuantry at will. The marriage should be recorded with a lead pencil, not with ink, in the fly leaves of the family Bible. Nay, in a union which should be the most inti? mate and trustful of all, a provision is reade for contention and divorce. Cotton lu the Future. The last report of the United States Commissioner ot' Agriculture enters some? what largely into die discussion of the cot? ton qucstiw, :in 3 r.uikes thc prediction that thc South wi'l rt cover its ascendency 'Af cotton producing section of the world. Though Europe, by stimulating the produc? tion of the staple in Egypt. Brazil. China and India, threatened for a time the cotton interests of the South, the danger is now past. "The view," he says, "that cotton planting in the United States must for time be abandoned, was too hastily adop? ted, with little consideration of the facts in the case." He then produces the following among other statistics, to show how the tables have been turned upon India in single vear. and how Great Britain has in? creased her American purchases, while those of India, China, Turkey, Mexico, and other countries, have been diminished with a diminution of the total importation: Cotton, raw, from 1866. 1867. United States.cwts. 4,643,370 4,715,733 Bahamas and Bermudas.. 7.515 10,623 Mexico. 8,145 22 Brazil. 611,808 623,761 Turkey. 92.996 57,024 Egypt. 1,055.900 1,127.541 British India. 5,943.770 4,449.259 China. 52,120 4,707 Other countries. 335,249 278,981 Total. 12,295,803 11,272,651 Commissioner CAPRON s figures might have been a good deal more satisfactory had Congress chosen, after the close of the war, to vouchsafe peace and tranquillity to the South, so that the capital required to give efficacy to our labor might have been en? couraged to seek investment here. Lincoln's Opinion of Lee. The late President LINCOLN was certainly a copperhead. Becent revelations leave no doubt whatever of the fact. "We have it on the high authority of the intelligent and respectable colored woman who - acted as femme dc chambre to Mrs. LINCOLN, and who is now turning an honest penny by publish? ing a book about what she saw and heard in the White House, that on the very morning of the assassination, President LINCOLN took up a portrait of General LEE, scanned the face thoughtfully, and said : "It is a good face : it is the face of a noble, noble, brave man. I am glad that the war is over at last." Looking up at his son ROBERT, he continued : "Well, my son, you have returned safely from the front. The war is now closed, and we will soon live in peace with the brave men that have been fighting against us. I trust that the era of good feeling has returned with the close of the war, and that henceforth we shall live in peace." Wero President LINCOLN alive now, these words would certainly be held to constitute a high crime and misdemeanor an impeachable offence. Cn ?tnt.
