Sir Robert Napier has complied with the dying request of the poor Queen, and the lad is now on his way to England. All 'Abyssinian sur? names have a distinct meaning.

The bull expresses hopes that princes and other rulers will afford the ecclesiastics all possible facility for mak? ing the journey to Rome. The bull also states that the object of the council . o assure the integrity of the faith, respect L. religion and the ecclesiastical laws, the improvement of ? public morals, the establishment of peace and concord, and the removal of the ills afflicting civil and religious society. The bull finally adverts to the necessity for maintaining the temporal power, the sanctity of matrimony, and the religious education of youth, and de? plores the efforts of the enemies of the Chorch to overthrow those principles. -In the Admiralty Court, London, June 27, the application of the American government in regard to the affairs of the Mary, otherwise the Alexandria, was decided. lu this case an important question was raised as to the right of the United States to put certain interroga* ] tories to Mr. Priolean, merchant, of Liverpool, who claimed the vessel which had been seized by the government, on the ground that it had been used by the Confederates. The defendant alleged that certain interrogatories, if answer? ed, might render him liable to hiavy penalties, under the Foreign Enlistment act. It was urged, on the part of the United States Gov? ernment, that parties required the interrogato? ries to be answered. His Lordship, in giving judgment, reviewed the practice of equity and common law, and thought the practice of this court should be moulded on the courts of j equity. He allowed the interrogatories to be administered, and if any answer was objected to, it must be sworn by the defendant that he believed it would subject him to penalties un? der the Foreign Enlistment, or some other act. Judgment accordingly. CHARLESTON. -?-0 THURSDAY MORNING, JULY 16, 1863. . Modern Researches In Palestine. The Holy Land, after so many centuries, begins to yield up its hidden treasures. Until the time of Dr. EDWARD ROBINSON'S visit to Palestine, the geography of that country was traditional, and it seemed im? practicable to disinter the truth from the rubbish of legend with which it was over? laid. The sites and names of the Scripture lands were incorrectly indicated by the ecclesiastical guides of modern times, and it seemed impracticable to recover the chart of those antique historic regions which poe? try, romance and religion conspire to cele? brate: "Over whose acres walked those blessed feet, That eighteen hundred years ago were nailed, For our advantage, to the bitter cross." The religious was startled by the discov ery made known by ROBINSON that Arab tradition had preserved, ia many instances without any change, those names which had been dropped out of the ecclesiastical rec ords. Thus hundreds of localities were identified, most of them by the learned Professor himself, and not a few by the dis ?iples whom his spirit animated and his in? vestigations guided. WOLCOTT first of all, STANLET, YAN DEB VELDE, PORTER, indeed 2very subsequent traveller, American or European, acknowledges that, more than to my other man, he has been indebted to the researches of our distinguished countryman. A good deal of discussion, however,-not wanting in bitterness-has been provoked by ROBINSON'S scepticism in regard to what are called "the Holy Places" in Jerusalem. To the satisfaction of moat critics, he proved pretty conclusively that the knowledge of these Bites, except, indeed, that of the Jew ish temple, at the southwestern angle of the' temple area, has been, utterly lost. So far as the latter is concerned, it is fixed with absolute certainty by the position of the temple bridge mentioned by JOSEPHUS, and the spring of its first arch still breaking the level of the western wall; as also by the antique portal on the south, partly built up and hidden by masonry-the former being discovered by Dr. ROBINSON, the latter by another American, Mr. WOLCOTT. The lat? ter also discovered, near the Damascus gate, the long lost opening to the .quarries whence the stones of SOLOMON'S temple were hewn. The reality and value of these dis? coveries cannot be questioned. Other iden tificatious have been accepted by scholars, is that of the conduit of HEZEKIAH, which Et man on horseback could traverse, discov? ered in digging for the foundations of the English church and consulate; sculptured fragments from the temple itself, discovered some fifty feet or so beneath the surface of the Tyropceon Valley; the ancient sewers and aqueducts beneath the temple area, which Dr. BABCLAT courageously penetra? ted; and the successive rock basins of "Enon near to Salim," some six miles north of east of Jerusalem. But the strong arguments urged to prove that the site of the Holy Sepulchre was un? known, provokes something like indignant astonishment. The English clergy, headed by the Arch? bishop of Canterbury, took advantage of the recent visit of the Sultan to Great Bri? tain to secure .the privilege of making ex? plorations in the Holy City, as well as ia other parts of Palestine. The work was committed to Lieutenant BARTLETT-a gen? tleman who unites taet and industry with all the requisite scientific attainments. A large number of Arab laborers has been employed in striking shafts through the immense heaps of temple ruins that were hurled down into the valleys to the east, south and west; ia laying bare the ancient streets and causeways, aqueducts and reser? voirs; ia unearthing the buried features of the ancien: temple hill, and ia tracing the outlines of ancient buildings. Several im? portant discoveries have already taken place, as the causeway, arch upon arch, extending from Moriah to Zion; the deep ralley, heretofore unsuspected, lying to the south of the temple and overlooked bj the dizzy pinnaole of the Temptation; a fJW ancient coins and a seal of the time of EZRA, inscribed in the ancient Samaritan charac? ter, with the name of "HAaaAr, the son* of SHEBANIAH." So far, the explorations have served greatly to enhance the credibility of JOSEPHUS. It is hoped by those who are employing Lieutenant BAETLETT that discoveries sur? passing in historic interest, and not infe? rior, perhaps, in historic value to those of Pompeii, will result from the undertaking, This officer, who has recently visited Eng? land, has, therefore, been sent back to re' new his researches. ? more zealous and indefatigable agent could not be employed. It is computed that the expense of the work will be three hundred pounds a month. We trust that the contribution will not be withheld, but that the enterprise will be prosecuted until the cradle of the Christian faith is exhumed, and the most wonderful of lands shall serve as an illustrated com? mentary to the most wonderful of books, The Electoral College Bill. The intention of the Radicals in passing the j Electoral College bill, is to obtain the power to reject the electoral votes of all Southern States which do not elect GRANT and COL? FAX in the Presidential election; but it is difficult to see how they will manage, under the letter of the Jaw, to give effect to their determination. Take, for instance, the case of South Carolina. This State, "pursuant to the acts "of Congress in that behalf," has, "since "the 4th of March, 18G7, adopted a Consti? tution of State government," under which a State government is organized and in ope? ration. The ?lection of Presidential elec? tors will be held under this bastard govern? ment, and, as the State has ratified the Constitutional Amendment, it is, by the terms of the Omnibus bill, entitled to Con? gressional representation when the President has proclaimed such ratification. . In South Carolina, then, all the conditions of the Elec-. toral College bill will have been complied with, and the Radicals will have to take another tacL to exclude the electoral votes which she will cast for SEYMOUR and BLAIR. So that if our electoral vote is refused, Con? gress will not only set the constitution, but, as has been shown, its own action at de? fiance.* The Electoral College bill is, however, more especially aimed at Virginia, ia which State the negro constitution will be submit? ted for ratification on the first of September next. If a fair vote is permitted, the con? stitution will be rejected by a large major? ity, and, in that case, our Jacobin Congress will refuse to receive her ten electoral votes. These onward steps on the part of the destructives in Washington should cause us no alarm. The more violent, the more rev? olutionary, the more tyrannical and the more unconstitutional they are, the mtre repentant Radicals will return to the Dem? ocratic fold, and the greater will be the compact and united strength of the libera? ting Democracy. Our Men and Oar Measures. THE DAILY NEWS hoisted yesterday the flig of the National Democratic party-the j party of freedom, security and national . progress. Under that flag the people of ' South Carolina will make their fight for the I [ constitution and laws ; under that flag the I ' United. States will return to those enlight ened principles of government which made our country "stainless in honor, boundless "in prosperity, incalculable in her strength, "the wonder and admiration of the world." We hope that before many days every | ] D?mocratie journal ia South Carolina will have avowed its devotion to the cause, and will, as we have done, nail the Democratic colors to the mast. WE ARE glad to see that Governor SCOTT has cancelled the bonds of NILES G. PAR? KER, the State Treasurer under the new. dispensation, and requested the present incumbent to remain in office until accepta? ble securities are given. The amount of the bonds is $90,000, and there is not a shadow of reason for believing that PARKER or any of his clique can give responsible sureties for that sum. Governor SCOTT is a holder of State bonds to the tune of about $50,000, and this he will doubtless bear in mind when any Radical official presents his offi? cial bonds for examination and acceptance. If such men as many of the elect are allow? ed to hold the public purse-strings and feed out of the public crib, the little credit that South Carolina still has will soon be lost. j Copartnership l?oticc. ?TOTICE.-I HAVE DISPOSED OF THE N PAPER, STATIONERY, PRINTING AND AC?
