The call is signed by John Welch, William F. Johnson, and John W. Frazier. -The Bichmond Dispatch, in an account of the memorial ceremonies at Ashland, Ya., says that one incident occurred which touched the feehngB of all. The grave of a Federal soldier was found. "Shall we decorate this grave?" said a lady. For a moment there was s deuce, and then, with one voice, all said : "Yes, for he sleeps now side by side with our own dead." And the same fair hands which decorated the graves of the Southern soldiers now strewed flowers over the grave of their enemy sleeping so silently by their sides. -.McCoole?- and Coburn, notwithstanding their present predicament, have not given up the idea of fighting, and have ordered the stakeholder to keep the put-up until they are liberated. They hope soon to be at liberty, but ii they have to serve their time out, they will, as soon as discharged, leave Ohio and make all necessary arrangements for the en? counter to come off in Virginia, as there is no law in that State against prize-fighting. Only a few persons will be posted as to the place where the "mill" will take place, so that the authorities cannot get wind of tbe location. It ia reported that -McCoole aod Coburn cleared $90.0 each through the sale of railroad tickets. They chartered the trains in partnership, pay? ing two dollarsfor each person earned. Their rate for the trip was five dollars for each pas? senger. -The magician, Robert Heller, whose real name, it appears, is *W. H. Palmer, has applied to be discharged from his debts by the Bank? ruptcy Court in London, where he now is. He describes himself in his application as former? ly of Washington, United States, and after? wards of the Metropolitan Hotel, Kew York. His debts are stated' at ?2665. Most of his creditors are in Kew York and Washington. He ascribes his bankruptcy to having been sued by Biggs & Co., of Washington, one of the partners of which house is, we behove, his father-in-law. -It is impossible to read the accounts which have been published of the closing scene in the life of the venerable ex-President, James Buchanan, without being impressed with the evidences of a mind conscious of right in the discharge of all earthly obligations and imbued with unaffected religious reverence and resig? nation. The private virtues of Mr. Buchanan Lave never been questioned by his most em? bittered political opponents, which, unfortu? nately, is more than can be said of many ex? tinguished public men. It is rare that such greatness of intellect and purity of life are combined in the public service. -A Washington letter says: "A meeting of about half a dozen strong-minded women and three or four men, headed by Mrs. Dr. Mary Walker, in bloomer costume, was held on Fri? day evening (as the call for the meeting stated), to form a white women's franchise as? sociation. The participants were all of that hard-featured class always to be seen at wo? men's rights meetings, and after some discus? sion they adjourned. Before doing so, how? ever, they elected officers for an association, and among the vice-presidents named some of the most prominent ladies of this city-ladies who have no sympathy with these movements, the use of whose names was altogether unau? thorized." -The Association of Medical Superintend? ents of Insane Hospitals, now in session in Boston, has had under consideration the draft of a general law in regard to the commitment of insane persons to asylums. The division of sentiment on the necessity of requiring a pre? liminary investigation was very marked, tbe physicians from the West advocating, and those from the Atlantic States opposing, the adoption of the section providing for legal pro? cess as the only warrant for detention. The reason of this diversity may be found in the fact that there is not so much confidence placed in the honor of the medical men in the West as in the East. After a discussion lasting for two sessions, it was resolved, with only one n?gatif^ vote, that insane persons may be placed in a hospital for tbe insane by their legal guardians, or by their relatives and friends, in case they ?have no guardians, but never without the certificate of one or more responsible physicians, after a personal exami- I nation made within one week of the date i thereof; and this certificate to be duly ac- ? knowledged before some magistrate or judi- , cial officer, who shall certify to the genuine- . ness of the signature and of the respectability ' of the signer, j I ' CHARLESTON. WEDNESDAY MORNING, JUKE 10,1863. IT IS KOT to our taste to obtrude upon the , public any personal differences between ( ourselves and our contemporaries of the . press, but, inasmuch as there are in circu- j lation printed copies of the correspondence ? which bas passed between one of the con- ? iuctors of the Mercury and one of the pro- ] prie tors of THE NEWS, we consider it proper to publish the correspondence referred to, In connection with the articles which were Its immediate cause. Whether the demand of the conductor of the Mercury was prompted by a reasonable resentment at what he deemed a personal iff root, or whether it was an attempt to in? timidate the editors of this paper in their course as independent journalists, it will be for an impartial public to determine. The Vanity of Amalgamation. The Bound Table, than which there is no more able, spirited and independent ajour? nai in the country, publishes a thoughtful editorial upon the lesson taught by the utter failure of republican institutions in Mexico. It takes the position that the materials of which republican States are made-"the persevering^ardihood, the diffused intelli? gence, the self-respect, the physical stam? ina"-in Mexico do not exist, and boldly asserts that the attempts to establish a re? public in Mexico have failed heretofore, and ? will fail hereafter, for the single sufficient \ reason that the Mexicans are a nation of hybrids. "It is not the weakness of repub? lican institutions, but the weakness of those who, in that unhappy country, seek to adopt them, that constitutes the irremediable diffi? culty. The Mexicans are no more fit for such institutions than we ourselves should be if subjected to the same debasing condi? tions. As a very powerful thinker, Dr. PAGE, of Edinburgh, has lately said in a work now attracting a great deal of atten- , tion : 'It is vain to talk, as some well-mean? ing but sadly misinformed men often do, of the civilizing and ameliorating influences of : admixture and amalgamation. There can be no permanent amalgamation races that are widely d.fferent, no admixture of supe? rior and inferior types, which does not lead in the long run either to the extinction of the inferior or to the debasement of the su? perior.' Fusion of this sort works well neither physically, socially, nor politically, although no doubt the mischievous effects are more susceptible of diminution in the two latter cases than in the former one. Differences of religion and climate are totally insufficient to account for the aston? ishing disparity that subsists between the peoples of the two contiguous countries of the United States and Mexico. As Mr. SQUJ.EE well says, in a passage quoted by Dr. PAUE, 'If the United States, as compared with the Spanish American republics, has achieved an immeasurable advance in all the ele? ments of greatness, that result is eminently due to the rigid and inexorable refusal of the dominant and Teutonic stock to debase its blood, impair its intellect, lower its moral standard, or imperil its institutions by intermixture with the inferior and sub? ordinate races of mon.' " In Mexico one man has been as good as another, politically and socially, and the republic was hailed with enthusiasm by the numbers who see no difference between names and things, by those who imagine that to call all men free, to give every man a vote, and to style the System a republic ia really to insure good government, what? ever the time, place or circumstances. For the twentieth time the fallacy has exploded, and perhaps at this juncture the example may "lead the American people to pause before they give irrevocable assent to pro? cesses which will infallibly tend to make the whole vast area of the Southern States second Mexico, with a promise no less glit? tering and specious, and a performance even more mournful and destructive." New Books. BEATJIIARCHAIS. An Historical Novel, by A. E. Brachvogel, Author of Narcissus, A New Fallstaff, ic. Translated from the German, by Therese J. Radford. Illustrated by Gas? ton Fay. New York: D. Appleton <fc Co. 1868. Charleston : John Russell. The success which attended the transla? tion into English of the novels of Miss MUHLBACH, encouraged American publish? ers to fresh ventures. German historical novels became the fashion, and, until popu lar caprice has found a new literary love, there will be no lack of translations to make the American reader familiar with one of the lesser veins of that vast mine of intel? lectual wealth which enriches "Vater Land. All German historical tales are not inter? esting or amusing; but "Beaumarchais" will redeem many failures and whet the appetite which may have begun to pall. The scene is laid in the latter half of the eighteenth century; a period which witnessed the dis? grace and death of POMPADOUR,-the ele? vation of the brazen DUBARRT,-thc first dairyings of PHILIPPE EGALIT? with the Republicanism which devoured him,-the death of Louis XV, and, finally, the fall of the Bastile and the bloody carnival of the French Revolution. Beaumarchais, the keen, witty, philosophical author of Les Noces de Figaro and Le Barbier de Seville, is the central figure, and his scrapes and schemes, his contests with Ventadour and Chartres, folly and vice, make up the chief interest of the volume. Interwoven with the life of Beaumarchais is the career of | the gallant Nassau, of the Princess de La.ni baile, of Turgot, Malesherbes, and Morelly. Surrounding the whole is the profligate at? mosphere of a brilliant but corrupt oourt, and muttering above them is the voice of | the awakening and irresistible people. This novel gives to the reader a view of the days and scenes which immediately preceded and led to the revolution;-not such a view as is had by the historian, but such as would be had by one who lived in their midst, ?nd only knew violence and excess by the effects which they produced upon himself | md those whom he loved. There is no want of interest from beginning to end; Beaumarchais is one of the best German Historical novels published in this country. The translation is well doue, but the sug? gestion is made that too much translation s unwise, particularly in regard to proper lames. IN THE present condition of affairs, one nau has it in his power to injure a whole people, and a score of murders of the :haracter of that which has lately taken .-dace in Fairfied District will infallibly iring down upon our heads a torrent of ill eelirg which may end in scene; of violence ?ucli as this^dfee has never witnessed The hand of^r^y white man should be igainst the doer of wrong, and every cit i :en should feel that it is his duty to seize ?very disturber of the peace, and to dis lountenance any personal attack on account >f political conduct. ?0 Best.
