The following paragraphs are from the Trashing ton correspondence of the New York Slimes: WA It is anders too d that the order reorganizing the Southern Military Districts was material); - ?hanged from its original form before it was issued ' It was originally designed to embody ac it a paragraph providing for the withdrawal .

It is . probable that if Congress had adjourned, in? stead of taking a recess, it would have been le? aned in its original form; but inasmuch as only eight weeks now remain before that body re? assembles, it wan thought best to make the codification alluded to. THE KEW SOtnrUXaN GOVERNMENTS. There is good authority for the statement that the administration will not at present at? tempt farther interference with the troops in ?tho Sooth. It ie expected that the President's assertions of willingness to recognize the offi -'?ors of the newly organized governments in .. the Southern States-will be put to a practical _ test very soon by an application from Governor Warmouth,. of Louisiana, for troops to keep the peace and enforce the laws in certain parishes of that State io which riot ons demonstrations iave occurred recently. * V 'i'UtiBA'?i'i'.Mm>' TMPF^wnnrvT.

GBE88--I)ES??NS:0P THE RADICALS. The Washington correspondent of the Balti? more Gazette writes : v There is a remarkable rmanimity of senti merit among leading men here as to the proba? ble result of a.September session of Congress. lt ia bche ved that such a session would be fraught with the direst evils to the republic, as nothing but a desperate determination to inau? gurate 'civil war or revolution could induce Radical politicians to abandon the political ?contest at home at the boighth of the canvass on which their political existence depends. This subject ia one of very grave remark here -among thinking men, and many are not pre? pared to believe there will be a September ses? sion. Yet the ?ecla?raiibn of Mr. Bchenck would seem to indicate otherwise. He suggest? ed that the recess should run beyond the Oc? tober elections in Pennsylvania, Ohio and In . diana, and then when, they meet they would comprehend the situation better and be able to do whatever might be found necessary.

LETTER PROM GEN, WAGEKEP. ?The Orangeburg Times publishes the fol lowing letter from General Wagener, the State Ooinmisaionor of Immigration: CHAflLESTON,'June 10, 1868. ; Sb W- ' W, Legare, Esq., Orangeburg: DOAB Bra :-lb affords me great satisfaction and much please e to learn from your letter of 4Sh inst, that the landowners in your section of country are beginning to take a livery inter ?st in immigration, ft has been my earnest endeavor, for many yeera to show that an enlarged industrious white population and a ?vexaified industry would be the trae founda? tion of an economical prosperity and success. Our former institution would not have been -weakened, as was feared, but strengthened by "tnumber of' small farmers to sustain the - staple cropping of the planters. Millions of ? dollars could have been saved ever; year to the resooroea of the State. But since our late revolution, more than ever before the small . Armer has .become a necessity, and if we are disinclined ourselves to circumauribo our agri ' traltural operations' and multiply our produc . tiona, it should be. an earnest endeavor to in . duce a people t?ceme among us, that is in lae habit and willing to apply all tho powers ?-' of mind and body to such commendable pur suite. It ia poesiWe, that I have too favorable an opinion of the resources of our State, bot I .deem her with a proper culture one of the gar flan-apota of the earth, requiring only an ener? getic, persevering and frugal people to make .. Sex a most happy home for millions yet un bora. The actual results of our labors in the field of immigration have been limited. I am sorry lo say, that we continue to meet with great opposition in Europe to any emigration to our Southern States, mostly on account of the mis? representation of Northern and Western agen? cies, that have had for many years pastan ni disputed control of public opinion in regard to that matter .and have shaped it entirely to snit their purposes. We are slowly gaining ground however, and if our circumstances - would permit enlarged operations and greater facilities of in ter ooo ?se than we no rf control, together with an increased and more general liberality an the part our people in oners of land atiow rates, and remunerative wages, I Jaave no doubt we should soon overcome all obstacles. A few places have been sold to ?trangers and as far as I have learned they are satisfied with their parchases and they them? selves win prove valuable citizens. Not quite lour hundred persons have found employment in the country, mostly on shares, one-half of Che crop after paying expenses, and from the parties that have communicated with me, I ?ave received satisfactory accounts. A consid? erable number of Europeans have gone np to laurens District last winter, but I have not xoeentl v beard ! rom the planters how they are progressing. A planter from the low country ?rote me, that with him white lab T had proved aauccesa. Another ic Sumter District, who worked with a small number of Germans last ?yoar, bas written me the same thing, employs the same force which he had, and has increased ll this- year by several bands through my assistance. However, there can be no doubt that here and there dissatisfaction w?l arise and disappointments happen, although I hav not been informed of any, but that cannot do aiway with our acknowledged need of an in? crease of efficient labor nor with the necessity of submitting to many inconveoiencies and unusual expenses, with a view and in the hope N cf attaining an eventual good, and conquering an existing great difficulty. I have exerted myself to induce the forma tion of an Immigration Society in every dis? trict, and a union of the proprietors and planters for combined efforts. Where they could make up a sum of money or combine their credit to defray the passage of soca .laborers as they might have employment for, they would increase the chances of our auc ?38C accordingly, and where they could per liaps join in donations of lands, or at leaBt in she offer of a considerable number of such tracts and placeB for sale on liberal conditions and at low rates, it would be another strength? ening feature in our plan. The system of working on shares will do very well, but the cash wages are a better, inducement, for a ?banger wiB know exactly shat to care for, and be never subject to doubt or misapprehen? sion, - .We moat start with this understanding -Meat wo are supplying our cwn necessities, and that we must make liberal sacrifice*. The old ^jbanerly and even fvery, recently prevalent {j idea, that wo are doing a deed of great human? ity in permitting the. ?tranger to come among ns mnst be entirely abandoned, and instead we must make np oar mind to heartily invite and sinoerely welcome him ; we most not be preju diced against the worthy for the unworthy, that will certainly sometimes come ; and we must be willing to submit oven to many incou venieucies and some losses, where they are un? avoidable to make him contented nnd prosper? ous, and thus our reward will be certain to como after a time I do not know whether I am responding' to your inquiry according to your wishes, ont if you should succeed in an organization, and have a public gathering, I will write you more fully on the subject if I should be unable to attend in person. I en? close you my circulars, which will contain some further information in regard to details. There are wh;- laborers to be had through Northern agences, and recently a gentleman from Newberry has obtained some twenty Ger? mans from New York. I had made arrange? ments with a gentleman in Pennsylvania to furnish labor of all kinds, and of a commenda? ble character to such plauters as would comply with his terms, which I considered very reason? able. I can furnish you his address, as also the address of other agents. But .1 am decid? edly of opinion that our resuscitation, depends upon the immigration of small families, who will certainly, if well treated and prosperous, be followed by reliable laborers and efficient mechanics, and by degress supply our wants, and I repeat, no inducements on our part ca n be too lib?rai, no sacrifice too great to obtain this object. To be fully understood, I would respectfully request you to organize a society at Orangeburg, not only for the encourage? ment of immigration, but to encourage a vari? ety of agricultural and industrial pursuits, to register as many lands and at as favorable ratC3 as possible, and combine for the intro? duction and proper remuneration of white labor, &c., &c., and then let me have a copy of your registry for publication ; inform me also at an early day of what laborers you will want, and what .wages- you will pay them, or what contracts you will make, and if you can secure their'passage-guarantee according to my cir? cular. It our people would talk less of politics and more of home wants, rf they would spend half the time and make half the sacrifices for the general industrial resuscitation, which they are offering for a political sucoess, we might rest assured, that at no distant day. we would be once more happy, contented and power ral, I am. reprectfully, Your obedient servant, JOHN A. WAGENEB. THE NEW ATLANTIC GABLE.-The following from the Pall Mall Gazette will be read with interest by our merchants : As the Moniteur has now confirmed io on official manner the statement of a concession of the right of laying down a .submarine tele? graph cable between Brest and the United 8tate8, it may be worth while to mention a few of the part icnlars of this enterprise. A cor? responding concession has been granted by the State of New York, an l the cible will tw laid direct from Brest to New York city. This con? cession ls understood to be an exclusive one on the French aide, at any rate-for twenty ?ears. Tbe grounds upon which the projectors ave found favor with the French and New York State governments have been, chiefly, that the proposed cable will obviate the circui? ty and delay incident to the present line, and wm also lessen the existing liability to casualties. By the only route we now have, not less than four submarine cables have/ to. be employed, whil J the electric fluid has to perform four lane journey a also before a met sage can be Bent from the Continent of . Europe to New York. There intervener-L the North Sea, or the English Channel; 2, the Irish Sea; 8, the Atlantic; 4, the Bea between Newfoundland and the Ameri? can Continent; while the wires have also to be carried across i England, Ireland, Newfound? land, and, lastly, from the boast of British America southward to New York. It is, per? haps, surprising that with this circuity mes? sages are Bent from Europe to the United States as quickly as they are; but there is no doubt that communication will be very much ac derated if, as is said, a merchant or bro? ker at Paris nil be able literally, to speak into New York. . It may posaioly be a sanguine calculation that messages between those cities may then be Bent and answered in half an hour, and that messages may be sent from Berlin or Frankfort to New York and answered within an hour; but the difference of time must obvi? ously be very great. It is thought, also, that the directness and simplicity of this route will very much diminish the chances of communica? tion with America beiDg from time to time put out of gear, Ocean telegraphy has now been car ried to such perfection that there is more fear of mishap by land than by sea; and, io point of fact, during the last two winters, when we ? have several times been alarmed by a stoppage 1 of messages, the explanation has in each case : been that storms had blown down the land tel- : egraphB, sometimes in Newfoundland, some times on the American mainland. From this . danger, whatever it may amount to, the new j line will be exempt. Aa the capital it will rep- i resent will, it is stated, be only one mil ion ; pounds, and aa the working expenses, with , only two stations (at Brest and at New York) ought to be very small, it is probable that this project will bring the luxury of telegraphing across the Atlantic within the reach of persons of very moderate means. A cable laid across the English Channel, from Falmouth to Brest, would also give us the benefit of it. It is un? derstood that tho new Atlantic cable will be ready for laying next June. A MODERN BLUE BEARD-A HORRIBLE RE? CORD OF CRIME.-A case has just been-tried in the Criminal Court of Posen, Prussia, which in its peculiar actrocity actually outdoes the sanguinary legend of Blue Beard. The criminal was a bookbinder named Witt man, and the crime of which he was accused, and for which he has been condemned to death, was the poisoning of four wives and two chil? dren in the space of six years. This Wittman, while working as a journey? man in Troll in some ten years ago, made the acquaintance of the governess of his employer, a M. Pinch,- who died suddenly not long after? ward, leaving his entire fortune to his gov? erness. Wittman thereupon settled at Wollin, and. in 1860, married the h errees of M. Pirsch. Two male children were born of this union. In 1862 Mrs. Wittman died very suddenly, leav? ing all she possessed to her husband. Three months afterwards the eldest boy was attacked by a mysterious disease and also died. lu June, 1863, Wittman married his second wife, who had likewise some money, and who died in the following December, after having made a will in her husband's favor eight days previously. In April, 1864, Wittman took a third wife to his bobom, in the person of an heirees, richer than either of the previous vic? tims; and this woman died within five months, shortly after having made a will dividing her fortune between ber husband and her mother. Two months after her death, Wittman enter? ed for the fourth time into matrimony-this time marrying a wealthy widow with one child, who died three daye after the marriage. Wittman then left Wollin and settled at Po? sen. His fourth and last wife died in Septem? ber, 1866, having like her predecessors, made a will in favor of her husband about a month be? fore. Under pretext that she had died of chol? era, Wittman wanted to have her buried imme? diately, but the extraordinary mortality in this man's family had at last attracted attention, and the police interfered with his rather pre? mature arrangements. A physician was called in, au examination made, the presence of arse? nic proved, and Herr Wittman was lodged in t>il just as the funeral procession started from is door. The bodies of bis former wives and of the two children were after warda exhumed, and a chem? ical ar -Tysie revealed traces of arsenic in all of them. The proofs were too patent to admit of doubt or discus8ioo, and after a brief trial, Wittman waa, as above related, condemned to death. Ere this, he has paid the penalty of his crime. FATAL DUEL NEAR NEW ORLEANS.-On tho 25th instant, Paul E. Laresche, Jr., son of a re? spectable notary, and Deputy Constable Bos? sier, of the Third Justice's Court of New Or? leans, fought near New OrleanB. Larcscbe was killed. A disonce in the courtroom was followed by a challenge from Mr. Laresche. The duel ista met at eleven A. M. in the pariBh of St. Bernard, some distance below the city, near the United States Barracks. Mr. Laresche was accompanied by Messrs. Marcel and Y. Smith as his seconds, and Dr. Beriet as his Burgeon, while Messrs. Fore tal ana Labatut acted as the friends, and Dr. Rance as tho sur? geon of Mr. Bossier. The ground was marked off at forty paces, and double-barreled shot? guns, loaded with slugs, were the weapons se? lected. At the first fire Mr. Bo sei er's weapon missed fire. At the second .Ure Mr. Laresche received a bail in the right Bide, immediately nader the ribs, the ball passing entirely through his body. The young man was borne to the dwelling of his parents on Royal-street, srhere he died. Mr. Bossier is a cripple,- hav hg lost a leg in the war. The victim was but i few moments past his twentieth year. Boe? der was arrested and imprisoned. Surgeons Berget and Rance were arrested ae accessories, Items ot* State News. -A grand tores ratification meeting of the Democratic party of Fairfield District will be held at Winnsbaro' on the Sd inst. -The dwelling of Mrs. Frances Williams and the kitchon of Mr. B. F. 8mith, both in Abbeville District, were burned last week. -The "White Cane Democratic Club, of Orangeburg District, have passed a senes of practicable and sensible resolutions, looking to the encouragement of white immigration. -An experienced California miner publishes a communication in the Pickens Courier, stat? ing that he has made discoveries of very rich ore in and around Walhalla. -The Clarendon Press says : t:Tbe weather for some days past has been somewhat leaky, though very warm and sultry. The prospects for a Dountiful crop never was brighter, and farmers everywhere are in high spirits, and seem to think that there will be no scarcity of bread next year."' -The Lancaster Ledger tells us: "Since our last issue we have been blessed with bountiful rains. The crops have brightened up wonder? fully-platers do. A tolerable good corn crop is now calculated upon. Cotton is growing rapidly ; though in many places backward and small, it has the age, and will make up for lost time. If nothing more serious happens, we think a pretty fair cotton crop will be made." -In all parts of the country Democratic clubs, white and colored, are being formed. The Barnwell Sentinel says: "Bamberg formed a club a few weeks ago. which now numbers over one hundred members, and there ore ac? cessions daily to its ran us. Blackville, Willis ton, Aiken, Graham's Turnout, and many other places in the district have formed clubs, and are all in fine working order. Our Demo? cratic friends have determined that the ball shall be kept rolling, and have rolled np their sleeves to tho work." Bethlehem Hospital. The London Doily Telegraph of the 29th ult contains the following account of a visit to Bethlehem Hospital, a celebrated insane asylum of that city : " Portraits enough ono could sketch'on the route through the building. It is hardly the sufferers from acute mania perhaps that afflict one the most. Here and there, over a fine and proud face, you see a shadow pass like a thunder-cloud, as che man's hour of torment comes upon him ; but in that there is still seme courage and manhood left. Yonder, stricken down by the worst kind of melan? cholia, a poor creature, his hair all gray or grizzled, rocks himself incessantly to and fro upon his seat, shrinks from a lench cs from fire, and gives no answer to a kindly saluta? tion but a moan. If this be his state at mid? day, what is it when the night closes in ? Pass on ; and now how old. think you, is the rosy gentleman half asleep m a chair by the chica? ne v corner? The rosy gentleman looks up, with a surprising amount of briskness, as he hears the question, and answers, "ninety, sir I" He is not dreaming, not romancing. He came to this hospital-think of it 1 in January, 1827, already forty-eight years old, and there is still a color on his cheeks. Less cheerful, but robust in his language to a degree which is almost terrific, is an old sailor in the neigh borhood. Our men swore terribly in Flanders, but this grand old veteran would outswear thirty troopers. Never was there an old gen? tleman so utterly unfit for publication. The worst kind of modern after-dinner conversa? tion, compared to his wonderful utterances, would be "as moonlight unto sunlight, and os water unto wine." We had better join the ladies. in the female wards, situated in the eastern part of the hospital, we meet with many more cases of chronic and persistent delusion than amongst the men. The very first lady, for in? stance, whom we accost soon describes her? self as "Queen of Heaven and Earth," and speaks of her most gracious Majesty Queen Victoria in a alighting tone and de haut en bas. Altogether, it is a more pitiable sight than that of the men, and for every obvious reasons. Here, too. we meet with one of the few inmates who recall the old type of ineanily. A poor, unhappy gentlewoman bas been here for years; eh e hos- grown old and sharp and wrinkled ; her white hair hangs in groat tangled heaps about her, and there is au awful Took, like that of hunger, in tar eyes as she presses towards the door of her litifp room, and would foin pass on and hustle by you. Involuntarily a man shrinks from the touch for just a second, and it is. not your first impulse, but a return of reason ana your reverence for woman, which makes you accept and press the hand that she offers you. Ah, it is a thin, worn hand 1 Hon? estly, one is glad enongh to mount to the up? per galleries where the more hopeful-at any rate the quieter-"cases" are to bo met with. Decorous as a private drawing room are many of these apartments, -where some of the patients Bit reading, others working, others again practicing at the piano. The strange cess ortho whole BOene seems to grow upon yon. If these calm, orderly youj:* iadiea ard mad, who ls Bane? Who ebal] draw the precise fine' o ^demarcation be'.ween the two states? "They draw it themselves" is perhaps the answer. It ia mournfully true. A poor girl who le, in the strict conventional sense, a young lady-eagerly accosta us as we pas4. As one might guess, it, is the old. story of a love that come to nothing. The face ls bright still, and pretty, though the fine eyesore troubled, and there is a painful little catch in the voice,. Sensibly. ano quietly, with a kind of subdued. eagerness that is wonderfully touching, she pleads for her release ; she is quite well : abe would be quite safe ; she can take care of h era alt perfectly. A crucial ques? tion is then asked; and she cries. "Ah I but shall I tell you the-troth, or not the truth? When I toll yon the truth, you keep me here." "And the truth," God helo us, is that she is engaged to a young gentleman "and that the greater part of Europe belongs to him." The Boft but earnest voice-a lady s in every tone trembles down into tears, but the eyes, though suffused, look proud, and have a touoh of anger in them, as she Bays, "you keep me here because I tall the truth." No quieter voice could you hear: and you must be strangely constituted if yon can tum away from euch an interview without pain and sick? ness at the heart. No attempt has been made in this notice to gloss over the fact that a visit to Bethlehem is a Btih painful and trying journey ; but, as pub? lic chroniclers, whilst deprecating any morbid curiosity on snob subjects, and refusing to satisfy it by entering into many details that might easily have been given, we are anxious to beor testimony to the excellence and order, sc far as we oould judge, of the general arrangements. On one point, indeed, it would be impossible to apeak with too much empha? sis. The behavior of the patients themselves is a proof of the influence exerted over them by the mingled firmness and kindness of the resident physician, Dr. W. Rhys Williams, who is welcomed with a emilo by all but the most hopeless as he puses through the wards. To that gentleman, as well as to Dr. Eemp thorne, the resident medical assistant, the best thanks of all interested in the good man? agement of Bethlehem Hospital are eminently due, not loss than our own acknowledgements for personal co ur Leay. SECSZTABV SEWABD'S POSITION.- The New Yerk correspondent of the Philadelphia Ledger thus writes on Thursday : The most interesting political rumor of the day is that Mr. Seward, who passed through this city yesterday, on his way to Auburn, gave his friends to understand that he was about to break ground in f ivor of Gen. Grant. A brief editorial in one of the Republican morning papers hos a hint to the samo effect ; but the becrotary, in conversation on thc subject, I am assured., was much more outspoken than the hint would ?eem to imply. The Democri.-.:c politicians aro not a little perplexed by ih:? movement. They aay they cannot nndersvand how the Secretary can take such a position, and yet occupy a place in the Cabinet of President johnson.
