One of these usually gave the som of rooney appropriated for the relief 4 of the case, in the name of the Empress, stat- P rag that they bad been sent by her. It ap- u pears, however, that the Emperor, fearing, it " is said, to expose her Majesty to over-fatigue, ? ha? appointed, two competent persons to fulfil <? this mission of mercy. The tact of one of the ^ four visiting ladies being her Majesty once accidentally revealed, naturally her mission, " which led her into crowded Iaoes and remote J "J oourts, became impossible. The secret has been kept for a lengthened period. -A certain professor of spirit nalia m profess? es to have recently risited the moon, by and with the advioe and consent of the ghost of j Benjamin Franklin. The professor states that in anatomical structure the inhabitants of ^the moon are very peculiar; that they are on the average about three feet high, having, very J large round heads, with a couple of horns in front, and something resembling human faces on the back side of the cranium; that they al? ways walk sideways, like large, odd-looking crabs, with the face turned over the front shoul? der as they walk; that they have very large protruding eyes, one on either side of the nose, which is broad, snout-like, and taros ap at the end; that they wear clo th es of an exceedingly coarse and peculiar kind of grass, only found at the moon, woven together by. a very simple procees, aud that they are, on the whole, a very intelligent race of oddities, greatly given to the study of metaphysics. The professor will "pass." -A Paris correspondent writes that bonnets are lovely. AU garlands. The new thing is fruit; but there bas appeared another novelty in the arrangement of flowers on fauchons. A rose wreath, for instance, is made of full ros?s on ibo top for the diadem, thence they gradual? ly lessen in "size and come down quite to a trail of 'buds among tbs folds of drapery under the chin. White rice straw fauchons, with no.liing bot a silver drab* scarf, trimmed with blonde of the same abade, and a- garland of tapering mignonette, make ??nsvA head-dresses for j driving. Underskirts are made of green and white, mauve and white, blue and white mus? lin or foulard, striped alternately. The green and white are the prettiest. The over skirts to these flounced petticoats are of the same material and shade, with moob narrower stripes. The pelerine is fringed round and raised np to the centre of the black, where the folds are stopped, not by a rosette, which is very heavy, bot an elegant satin bow. On the back of the waist behind comes a sheaf of rib? bon and sash ends to match tbs green stripe. Tho overskirt is raised .on each side and frilled round. Another very favorite stripe is the botter cop and ?bite, under a black lace overskirt looped as above, with a corsage nke the underskirt, and a black lace fichu crossed behind over an elegantly looped bow, like the bodice. CHARLESTON. ? -o SATURDAY MORNING, JUNE 20, 1868. The Best Ot the Bu neb. The new constitution of Alabama requires all persona,- before registering as voters, to J swear to. accept the civil and political equal? ity of all men, and that they will not at? tempt to deprive any person, on account of j race or color, of any privilege that he now enjoys. The Arkansas constitution con tains a similar provision, and adds j an ingenious. clause, by which persons who do not take the electoral oath are pro? hibited from following certain trades, or | professions. The Mississippi, Georgia, Florida and Louisiana constitutions are ; mode after the same pattern-all disfran? chise a greater or less number pf white men; but tho proposed Virginia constitu? tion, in wholesale proscription, goes far be yond its xnmpanionB. In 8ooih Carolina, ibo oolored people have an Immense ma? jority. They are wall disciplined, and in Ac Reconstruction Convention had the nu? ll er ?cal control. They bad been, taught hat Carolina, ?'the -radie of the rebell on," ieaerv?d punishment and degradation, and ret tho eons ti tu ti on framed by the Reoon itrueticu Convention is more liberal in re? gard to the right of suffrage than any other j lonstitution in the Southern States, made Uder authority of Congressional legisla? tes. In the constitution of this State, there is io oath to be taken by voters, and no dis ranohising clause. Every male oitixen wenty-cne years of age is entitled to vote ; all elections, and the only disqualifica ion is, that no person shall be allowed to rote or bold office, who is or -may be dis- j juaiified therefor by the Constitution of the Inited States.- No person whatever is dis 'ranchiaed by the United States Constito- j ion, land, until the fourteenth constitutional [ amendment is declared to be a part of that j jonstitution, no persons are disqualified Iron .holding office. - So that, under the lonstitution of this State, there is.no dis Tanchisement, and every person, not loellisi, ia entitled tc hold office until j he fourteenth amendment is ratified. Nain that ratification has 'taken place, he persons included in its provisions viii be disqualified from holding office a the State; but there will still be no liminution in the right of vo*iog. Paupers md persons of unsound mind are, of course, lisfranohised, bat the General Assembly nay never pass a law ?hat will disfranchise ipy citizen, except for treason, murder, .obbery and duelling. Whatever toesuooess of the Democratic >arty in the Presidential election, whatever he action of the Supreme Court, Soath 'arobina must be governed for months or 'ears under the constitution of 1868. It rill be our..law whether we like it or not, rid, opon the principle of fighting the devil nth fire, all the provisions of the constitn ion should be known, and its every enaot l?nt turned to the best account. We are io lovers or defeoders of the Reoonstruo ion Constitution, but we need not fear o give the Radicals their doe, and ac-j inowledge that, when the soldiery are emoved, there will not be one man in tooth. Carolina who is disfranchised by eason of his political conduct,-and this oder a constitution drawn op and adopted ya con ven tien of negroes and white Re oblioans, aod ratified and approved by a inge negro majority. Immigration from Germany. Oar people, we believe, at last fully ap? rec?ate the value of the influence whioh forman immigration, if successfully st im - ilated, must exert opon the future fortunes f Sooth Carolina- Professor ? ACHTLE BUN , f Colombia, has recently published an in aresting letter giving some praotioal and vidently well-oonsidercd views on this im ortant subject. He remarks that ??the stream of immigration from the German agrie ultural districts bas for many years, been steadily directed towards the North? west. Whole communities of Germans iave there been formed, in whioh the Ger? man language continues to be the common median? of intercourse, and where Ger "man manners and modes of living contio "almost exclusively, to prevail. Nea "every town and Tillage in Germany ! "contributed its quota of men to Build "these thriVing settlements. A oonst "correspondence with their relatives i "friends, keeps those who have, so far, "mained at nome fully informed of "prospecta and advantages whioh the W "offers to the industrious immigrant; i "so it is bat natural thal'the great majoi "of those who desire to exohange th "German for an American home, and hi "the meanB of crossing the Atlantic w "their families, should join the friends v "have preceded them and., have met w "success, instead of risking their for li "in comparatively unknown regions, wh "their language _ is mot understood, f "where they oannot oounl on the advice "the helping hand of their : oountrym "Still, it might be expected that, were ?to make the superior advantages of < "mate and soil whioh we can offer to I "foreign immigrant sufficiently known "Germany, we might induoe many who t ?not attracted lo the Northwest by the t "of friendship or kindred to' settle-arno "us. But here an almost inBurmountal "difficulty-insurmountable, at least 1 "the present-would oppose our; effor "The prejudices which exist in Genna "against the Sooth, both with regard to t "salubrity of its climate and its social cc "dition, are as deeply rooted as they a "unfounded. The belief prevails that t "foreigner falls an easy prey to maligna "fevers, which attack him in every porti "of the South, and against whioh no pi "dence or caution can protect him; that t "heat of the climate prevents the success "white field labor; but, what is still mo "absurd, and at the same time worse, tb "the planters of the South, now that Afi "can slavery has been abolished, will e "deavor to make the white immigrants slav "in the place of the negro. This ignoran "and distrust of the people of Germai ! "is purposely and constantly kept ali "by th?'most shameleBB lies, with whit "the Bed Republican correspondents fro "the North and Northwest regale the Ge "man newspapers, while all, with hard "one exception, are bitterly hostile to U "8onth, and do all in their power to wai "emigrants against directing their steps ti "wards the former slave States of U "American Union. Nor can the editors i "the German 'liberar press be io du oed i "publish statements contradicting and di "proving the slanders of their America "correspondents. It is their interest I "praise the Radical North at the expense c "the Conservative Sonth, because their ow "policy tends to social radicalism. The "therefore dose their papers to Souther "communications whioh might rectify an "remove the prevailing prejudices. "Under such circumstances, it is hopelea "to expect that the publication of pampb "lets, setting forth' the advantages whiol "the South offer to the foreign immigrant "or the labors of travelling agents and lee "tarers in Germany, however ably am "zealously directed and performed, wi! "produce any beneficial o h an ge in the feel "inga whioh there prevail against us, o: "that we may look for any immigratioi "worth talking about of those who ha vi "property enough to transport th ems el vs i "and families across the ocean. We mast "therefore direct oar attention to a olasf "who have not the means of paying theil "passage, who are in a hopeless st tte ot "poverty and dependence, from whioh the} ?long to be released; and we must make uj "oar minds to bring them across at oar ex "pense, expecting to reimburse ourselvee "gradually by deductions from the wage? "whioh we agree to pay to those whom we "thus employ." Professor SACHTLEB EH concludes that this is the only practical way in which large numbers of German field ? laborers can be obtained. He adds: "At an expense of sixty "dollars they oan be brought from their "homes to Charleston; a farther expense of "twenty dol?an for the necessary furniture "will settle them in their new "homes; half "wages paid daring the first two years will "repay the oatley incurred by the employ - "er; and if the planters will only see that "liberal treatment is their own interest as "well as it is that of the foreigner whom "they employ, thousands of others will no "doubt follow, and will, in the course of "time, build up all over our State settle "monts like 'our own Walhalla, whioh re "fleets so muoh honor on ifs founders, and "which, by its prosperity,' proves what a "thrifty German population can aooompl.sh "in a few years." THE RIOHMMOHD DISPATCH saay: "The "recent elections in South Carolina were "for Judges of Probate, Sheriffs, -Clerks of "Courts, &c. The thirty-one distriots are,' '?we BnppoBe, judicial distriots." The "districts" of Sooth Carolina are what are known as "counties" in Virginia, and, we believe, every State in the Union but our own. The name "district" has been changed to "county" by the Recon? struction Constitution, bat the old term is still in universal ase. By the way, what was the effect of the military order chang? ing the name of Mayo's Bridge, Richmond, to King's Bridge ? Wc UNDERSTAND that General SCOTT re? ceived, a day or two ago, a telegram from three Republican senators, urging him to convene the State Legislature at once. In his reply to this telegram, General SCOTT Baid that he had no more right to convene the Legislature than any private citizen bad; that he did not desire to follow the examples of the Governors of Louisiana and North Carolina, by doing what he had no right to do, and that he did not intend to be made thc tool or the laughing slock of any politioal party. THE MKBCUBY ia in error in saying that ander the Reconstruction Constitution of the State, "No white man can obtain the right of voting, unless he swears that he sever will, by any politioal action of his, endeavor to overthrow negro supremacy by altering negro voting." Under the Recon? struction Constitution no oath whatever is required to be taken in South Carolina by ?ny person before he can obtain the right U> vote, Vants. WANTED.

A^BH CROFT'S LOW WATER DETECTOR PREVENIS THE EXPLOSION OR BURNING OUT OF STEAM BOILERS. THE PRIME CAUSE OF STEAM BOILER EX? PLOSIONS ARISEN FRO ai A DEFICIENCY OF WATER IN THE BOILER WHILE IN ACTION. V EXPLOSIONS FROM DEFICIENCY OF WATER. Low water In steam boilers ia no unusual occur? rence. Imminent danger frequently arises from this cause, sud lt cannot be too forcibly impressed upon the minds of engineers, that there ls no part of the apparatus constituting the mountings of a boiler which requires greater attention than that which sup? plies lt with water, In a properly constructed boil? er every part of the metal exposed to the action ol the fire should be in immediate contact with the wa? ter, and when proper provision fs made to maintain the water at a sufficient height above the parts so exposed, accidents can never occur from this cause. Should the water, however, get low from defects in the pump, and the surface over the fire become over? heated, then, even at the ordinary working pressure, there is great danger of an explosion. There is no occasion, under euch circumstances, to search furth? er for the cause of explosion, from the fact that the material, when overheated to a certain degree loses about five-sixths of its strength, and ls, therefore, unable to resist the internal pressure. When a boiler becomes abort of water, the first thing usual? ly done ls to put the feed pump in action; this cer? tainly remedies the deficiency, but increases the danger, and may lead to the explosion of the boiler. Ashcroft.'? Low W?ter Detector Is eminently fitted to guard against accidents caused by low water. It needs not the care or attention of the engineer or fireman to keep it in order. Opera? ting by the force of natural laws, it takes care of it? self, and is only called into action by the fall of the water below any fixed level, and then ft gives the alarm to all within sound of (he whistle of a defi? cient supply of water. It stands as a watchful monitor over the magazine of power OD which it is placed, and not only guards lt, but notifies the attendant, if he ls forgetful or negligent of his duty. JOHN P.
