General Cole, indicted for the murder of L. H. Hiscock, the alleged seducer of his wife, has commenced at Albany, New York. -General D. E. Sickles, delegate at large for New York, is named in many quarters for the post of President of the Republican Chicago Convention. -The English journals received by the last foreign mail, which brings our advices down to April 11th, express great joy ai the mtelligenco of Dr. Livingstone's safety. -The Paris correspondent of the Morning Post writes: "Tho rich American, Mr. Pea? body, on leaving the Pope, left five millions of francs for the Pontifical treasury." -A first-class daily newspaper ia English, it is stated, is soon to be published in Hamburg. Five hundred thousand persons in Northern Germany, it is estimated, are able to road the English language. -The London Spectator thinks the present British Ministry determined to hold on to pow? er, notwithstanding theil' recent defeat, and says that Mr. Disraeli wiL not quit office "until taken out by the collar." -The St. James Hotol, a new establisment, under the charge of the Stetsons, has been opened in Boston. It has four hundred rooms. Two thousand friends of the proprietors wore present at the opening and lunch on the occa? sion. - The Prussian schoolship Niobe, which ar? rived at New York Tuesday, is the first Prus? sian war vessel that has ever visited tho United States. Sho is a sailing frigate, and carries twenty-two guns, most of them smooth bore. -A physician, in Chicago, was called, a few days ago, to testify as a medical expert in tho United States Court in that city. He refused to testify unless he received fees as an expert to the amount of $23. The judge decided he was right, and the fees were paid. -We read oi new and dreadful cases of acci? dents from kerosene-one in Norfolk, another in St. Louis, by which a mother sustained frightful injuries which will probably provo fatal, and her daughter was killed. The cause in both cases was the use of the oil to kindle fires. General T. C. Bondman was brought before the United States Circuit Court in Little Bock, Arkansas, on the 13th instant, on an in? dictment for treason. The case was continuod until the next term of tho court, and General H in dm an was held to bail in the som of $5000, which he gavo at onoe. -The Right Rev. Cicero D. Hawks, D. D., died in St. Louis last Sunday, at tho age o f fifty-six years. For more than twenty years he filled the office of Bishop of the Episcopa 1 Church for tho diocese of Missouri. He was a native of North Carolina, aud a brother of the late Dr. Hawks, formerly pastor of Christ Church in Baltimore. -A Miss Nellie de Mare, of New York city, has agreed to walk from Jersey city to Phila? delphia in thirty-six hours, for one thousand dollars. The task is to be performed botwoen the 15th and 22d of May, and the route is to be over what is known as tho old post road. The lady is to have a body-guard accompany? ing her all tho way through. -Brazil is determined to encourage immi? gration. It now offers to build a comfortable house and clear six acres of land for every im - migrant who will give a guarantee that ho will occupy the house and till the land. Of course the location of the house and land will enter considerably into the estimate the immi? grant will place upon their value. -The great Erio struggle seems to havo ended. A compromiso was effected between the conflicting interests, and no objc -tion was made to the bill, which has j ust passed the New York Legislature. The Tribune save the termination of these difficulties has already had a favorable effect on the market, and opera? tions for an advance ore made with great confidence. -In an appeal for a grand rally in behalf of protection, signed by Peter Cooper, of New York, occur these words : "It is of great ini ponauce that advantage should be taken ol the brief administration o? Mr. Wade to get ihr nish Congress on adequate and well ad? justed tariff." So the manufacturing interest is to be brought to bear against Mr. Johnson, and to assist ir. his ejection from office. The "necessities" are accumulating upon the Senate. -The Mormons have recently held a synod in London, in which it was stated that in that city Ibero are nine Mormon churches, ono bun? dled and seven elders, fifty-three priest.-, twenty-four teachers, thirty deacons, and a membership which swells the total number of London Mormons lo one thousand one hun? dred and seventy-two. All these live right un? der the nose of thc Euglish Government, and carry out their principles the same u6 if they were at Salt Lake City. -On tho same day that Mt. Dickens left New York City foi- his home, in Eu?land, another English novelist, Mr. Anthony Trol? lope, standing in the next immediate rank after Thackeray and Dickens, stepped onshoie from tho Scotia. Mi'. Trollope is well known in America by his works, aud perhaps he has not had his equal in description of English clerical life and manners m this century. Trol? lope will remain in New York a lew days be? fore leaving ior a tour of the States. -A New York letter, of the 22d instant, says: "As the impeachment triul draws to a close, the general public interest in it seems to re? vive. Promineut Republicans who came on from Washington this morning, and who nie supposed to be hand-in-crlove with thc leading members of the high court, speak very confi? dently of conviction, while some ot the more enterprising of tho Wall-street stock jobbers are offering to make bets backing up that pre? diction. We shall probably be entertained with this kind of guces work in order to promote this or that little private scheme of Tom, Dick or Harry's, until the end is known. It is also woifb. noting that thc very powerful Weed und Seward interest here is being silently but vigor? ously engineered iu favor of the President; not that it cares for Mr. Johneon so much as it does for the retention of the lucrative patron? age it still controls one way and another in the customhouse, postoffice, and the internal reve nuo department. If Ben Wade once gets in, it is r.o sccicL thai he will make short work of these, in order that tho more radical men of thc porty may Lavo a tnrn at the public crib. The Evening Post, which represents tho ins, has a strone; article ic-day against conviction, and Ibo Evening Post, you know, is something of a pc wer." CHARLESTON. MONDAY MORNING, AFREL 27, 18GS. Preaching and Practice. Our colored people should never lose sight of the contrast between the professions of Northern politicians, who claim to be their especial friends, and the practice of the Northern people in the matter of negro suf? frage. This contrast is all the more strik? ing, when "we consider the insignificant number and vastly superior intelligence of the Northern blacks as compared with their brethren in the South. As the laws now stand, the only "loyal" States in which negro suffrage is tolerated, are Maine. New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Island, Wis? consin and Tennessee. In Virginia, the Carolinas, Georgia, florida, Alabama, Mis? sissippi, Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas, it has been established by the existing recon? struction laws. In some of the others, the blacks are absolutely disqualified from voting. In Ohio, by a law just enacted, every man who has any visible admixture of black blood, no matter in how small a degree, is excluded from the ballot-box. In New York, any black man who owns a freehold property worth two hundred and fifty dollars may be registered and vote. The question whethei .uis qualification shall be retained is to be submitted to the people as a separate matter, at the same time that they pass upon the new constitu? tion prepared by the recent convention. But if the States that have already voted afford any clear indication of popular sen? timent, equal suffrage will be conclusively voted down whenever the electors of New York are called to act upon it. Education. There has been a great deal spoken and written lately upon the subject of what con? stitutes a practical and liberal education, and in England, especially, a reaction seems very generally setting in against the uni? versity and public school systems which have been so long in vogue. Men are be? ginning to apply the crucial test of utility to maDy forms and modes of action with which their ancestors had long rested con? tent, and to demand that the growing child of popular thought and activity shall no longer be cramped and confined by the swad? dling clothes of infancy. The reform move? ment which has made itself so deeply felt in Church and State, was not likely to leave unmolested questions which have perhaps even a more practical bearing upon a na? tion's character than tho precise form of their government, or the width of the ortho? dox door to heaven. The problem of edu? cation, lying as it does at the very root of the matter of popular progress, was sure to excite the attention of those who, believ? ing that a new era. of national life had dawned upon the world, are naturally led i to examine with interest a matter involving so nearly the character of a people. It is, however, proverbially more easy to point out deficiencies than to suggest reme? dies. To find fault with the modes of edu? cation in common use is one thing-to show practically how those modes may be effec? tually superseded, requires something more than that iconoclastic diltiantttism which generally prompts the critic of venerable institutions. It is very easy to cry out de? struction to tuc classics, and not difficult to suggest with some plausibility a substitu? tion therefor of a liberal education in the practical necessities of life, but to the eye of the careful observer the proposed changes seem somewhat vague and unde? fined, and hardly vested with that system? atic unity which one naturally looks for in a scheme which proposes to overturn so much that has, apparently at least, been of large effect in man's past history. When Professor Hr XL EY describes his views on the subject of education to consist in "the instruction of the intellect in the "laws of nature, under which nam j is in? cluded not merely things and their forces, "but men and their ways: and the fashion? ing of the affections and of the will into "an earnest and loving desire to move in "harmony with those laws," we first ad? mire, then hesitate, and end by being slightly perplexed. And while we arc bound to admit that in elaborating his scheme he points out many grave errors in tho present methods of popular instruction, and makes many useful suggestions as to the general drift of the improvements tobe desired, we are nevertheless haunted by a sense of impracticability which may, of course, be the result ol' prejudice, but which is a serious drawback to the satisfactory contemplation of the change. That there are faults in the present system of rublic education, few will deny. But we a?e inclined to believe that the error und arly ing all others is simply a lack of elasticity. Men's wants and necessities vary widely, and & scheme of education which admits of only one method of intellectual training must be defective. There is no dcubt of the fact that a mau who expects to spend his future existence in some particular pursuit ought, iu a per? fect educational system, to be provided us far as possible with ibo apparatus and the mental training especially lilted for that purpose; and, as time is so short, encum? bered with the least practicable amount of superfluous matter. Menare divided Into the two classes of those who wish to kuow hov: a thing is done, and those who desire to know why it is done,-and the mental discipline and educat on of these two classes require, it is evident, very different treatment. The world could not get on without theoretical men, without scholars, without poets,-nay, even dreamers might be shown to be not wholly useless members of the body politic. These men from their peculiar turn of mind require a peculiar education, and the sys? tem is defective which denies it to them, and which instructs the poet in the minu? tia) of steam engines, and compel? the man of speculative tendencies to an intimate ac? quaintance with commercial arithmetic. And on the other hand, there are men of | practical talent whose time and energies would be worse than wasted in an exami? nation of metaphysical systems, or in ac? quiring a facility in the composition of halt? ing anapaests and unmelodious alcaics. A system which would he elastic enough to admit of all the varieties of training which "The miraculous infinite heart of man With its countless capabilities" requires, is perhaps an utopian impossibil? ity. It may, however, be approximated, and the present wide-spread agitation of J the subject can hardly fail of some good result. The danger will be that in gather? ing away the tares much of the wheat may be rooted up with them, and that what is really useful and necessary in the old sys? tem may be destroyed along with its fossil? ized inperfections. ?0 ?flt TO RBXT, THE UPPER PART OF House southwest corner of Calhoun and King strnets.
