In that way he made a great reputation in surgery; -The inhabitants of Toulouse, France, have subscribed 1br th? purchase of one hundred ?sd fifty Bemington rifles as a present to the Pope.

It seems that -with the majority, a fifth or a sixth of the funds -only aire devoted to the ostensible business, and the remainder is appropriated in adminis? tration. The patronage in many of these or? ganizations is of a highly valuable kind. It has been computed that the Earl of Shaftes . bury, from his Exeter Hall connections, has more places to give away than the Prender has. -The military conference called by Russia, in reference to the disuse of explosive bullets, -appears likely to take place. A letter from Berlin says that Prince Gortschakoff's invita? tion will be accepted by Prussia, which will 'probably be represented by Colonel Count de Schweinitz, military attache at St. Petersburg. The belief is that France and England will name similar officials. Italy will send a special commissioner. It is asserted that Austria and "the other States invited will also be dulyrepre JsenlocL . . -Tbs President and Cabinet have decided . "that the treaty of 1828 between the United -State? and Prussia covers all of tbe States of 1 - the North-German Union lately annexed, so far . as it applies to the arrest of deserters in Uni- i ted States ports from, merchantmen and war , vessels-sailing from ports in the North-Ger? man Union. This re verse p the opinion of the TJnited States Commissioner in New York, who -.decided that twelve deserters from the ship . Niobe could not be arrested under that treaty, ' ? because the vessel sailed from a port in the Gorman Union. -As age advances upon the Emperor Napo- , leon, the difficulties of bis government in- , crease. It is a significant comment: upon the trna | nature of his rule, that the moment po? litical opposition rises a little above the sur- 1 -face there is a general cry in Europe, "Be- 1 Ware, he is going to war I" The theory is, that I -be can only meet internal discontent by wav- < mg the flag of foreign conquest. The youth < of the great cities are determinedly against, 1 .him, and respect the young son of Cavaignac much more than they respect the young son of 1 .Napoleon. The latter h&j a stormy life in pros- ' peet. That refusal of Cavaignac's son to take ? ? prize from his hind, ii but a sign of what is I to come. i -The private execution, which recently took .place for the first time in England, bas elicited . Tory different expressions of' feeling as to the "benefit resulting from the change. The Lon? don-Times, thinking that private executions W6* e intended to be private, limited the re- > marks of its reporter to a few brief, bald para- > graphs. The other papers took a different "view of the matter. The Star sent Mr. Ed- j mund Yates, the novelist; the Telegraph sent , Hr. George Augustus Sala, and the News sent Mr. Joseph Parkinson to describe the soene, all with instructions to make a sensational 1 ?tory out of tha occurrence. As a conse- f ?menee, the journals are arguing that execu- ] tiona which afford food for such articles in the ? papers are not half private enough. The law , in England now provides that a black flag shall j bo displayed, and a bell tolled when the drop falls, so that all may snow that the criminal is ?lying, and so that the impression of terror may be made upon every mind. 1 -Extensive ruins in Arizona, it is reported, : have been discovered recently bj a party of surveyors engaged m exploring the country for railroad purposes. The ruins extend for nuiles along the Little Colorado River. Some of the walls of the buddings are yet in their ' places, and stand six or eight feet high. The streets may be traced for miles. The old irri? gating canals and ditches are yet in a fair state i of preservation, and may be traced for miles also. The ground is strewed with broken crockary-ware. The party found some nearly whole vessels of curious form. The ware seems to be of a different quality, and finer than that found at most of the ruins in Ari - sons. Many of the walls of the buildings were 1 built of hewn stone, and put up in a workman- 1 like manner. To all appearances here once < stood a city of many thousand inhabitants. , On tbe east bank are the ruins of a large struc? ture or castle, covering several acres of land .onie of (he walls aro yet standing to the ' height of twenty or thirty feet. 1 -Austria, by the unfortunate results of her < -recent war with Prussia and Italy, was forced i from her position as the head of the Gern Dations of Europe and driven back upon 1 Slavonic possessions. Prussia prides hen greatly upon this feat, but Austria is still termined to remain German in her princi characteristics, and is using every exertion establish German colonies in the heart of 1 hernia and Gallicia. The Invalide Busse, i oraran of the Buesian War Office, says that I Austrian Government, in pursuance of a 1 passed in the last session of :he P.oichsra has just sold extensive crown estates in Ga cia and Bohemia for $7,350,000, and some ii mines in Styria for $3,370,000. Gallicia a Bohemia protested against this sale, as it h not been approved by their respective Die but the government disregarded their prc tee The eagerness of Austria to carry out 1 measures was also exhibited in the conditio of the sale. Instead of conducting the si by public auction, and in small lote, as is usi in such cases, tbe government disposed of t estates privately to Prussian capitalists, though the local authorities had offered a hig er price for them. These Prussians will, it assorted, introduc? colonists from the Bhi and the Hartz, and in this way Germanize t Bohemian and Slavonic countries. -The railroad track layer now in use in Ca forma is said to operate successfully, ai places the iron rails in position at the rate one mile per day, though n^rao ri the work h been done at the rate of two miles in twel hours. The machine is a car sixty feet bi and ten feet wide. It has a small engine < board for handling the ties and rails. Tl ties are carried on a common freight car b hind, and conveyed by an endless chain ov the top of the machine, laid down in the places on the track, and when enongh are la a rail ia put down on each side in a proper poe tion, and spiked down. The track layer thc advances and keeps on its work until the loe of ties and rails is exhausted, when other c: loads are brought. The machine is drive ahead by a locomotive, and it is stated tt -work is done' so rapidly that six men are n quired to wait on it, bat it is asserted that thc do more work than twice as many could do t the old system, and the work is dobo quite t well, The chief contractor on the Vallejo an Sacramento- railroad, where the machine is i use, gives it as his opinion that when the mt chine is improved by making a few changes i: the method of handling rails aud ties, it wi t e able to put down five or six miles per day. OH A KL E S TON. -o TUESDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 1,1868 For President......... HORATIO SKI MOIR For r?x-Pretident.FRANCIS P. BLAIR. Thc Veto ot the City Charter BUI. "We print to-day in our telegraphic col umn the message of Governor SCOTT vetoing the bill to amend the charter of the City o: Charleston. There is no doubt that an election ii Charleston at this time would exoite even more trouble and distrust than Governor SCOTT seems to apprehend ; and if that elec? tion were held bj virtue of an act which offered a premium to fraudulent and illegal voting, and placed resident citizens under the control of a newly ! imported swarm of country freedmen, the consequences oould not fail to be Buch as would be deprecated by any lover of peaoe, order and security. Governor Seo IT, in (his instance, has acted with sagacity and prudence, and has shown that he can so far rise above partisan feeling as to judge of a measure by its merita and probable effects, rather than ac? cording to the hopes and wishes of some few violent spirits amongst his political sup? porters. The Fall Trade. Notwithstanding the customary depress? ing influence of an approaching Presiden? tial eleotion, there is a good reason to be? lieve that in the North ?ad West, as in the South, the fall trade will be brisk and ac? tive. The full swing of trade may be somewhat late in showing itself, but this arises from causes other than dullness and want of commercial confidence. The change in the credit system from six or eight months' time to ten, thirty or sixty days', has done its part in postponing the opening of the season, while the general use now made of the telegraph and express companies has done more towards securing the same result. Large houses in the inte? rior which have their agencies in New York, DOW use the telegraph daily, and purchases sf goods are made no longer in advance of the time when their distribution should jommence than is absolutely necessary. Saving of time by the use of the telegraph ind express systems is a saving of credit; md there are so many different means of oommunication that slow lines or cheap lines, at low freights or high freights, can be taken advantage of as the situation per? mits. There should not, then, be any disap? pointment if the Northern and Western fall trade does not begin as early as it did when the means of communication with the inte? rior were limited and uncertain. The won? derful advantages which the merchants now possess enable them to delay their purchases for three, four or five weeks, according to the distance of their places of business from the great centres of trade. The South jannot go into the market until they are assured of the measure of their success in planting, and Southern buyers must be somewhat backward as long os the pros? pects of their section are enshrouded with the least uncertainty. In the South the prospects are fairly bright, and in the North the sky is equally clear. Our cotton is likely to bring fair rates, and the market for cereals which will be wanting in the South on account of our abundant crops of grain, will be found in Great Britain. In that country there is a scarcity of grain, and the shipments already made from San Francisco to European mar? kets prove that a healthy drain from this Bide has already begun. The prairies of Illinois, Missouri and Kansas will supply any deficiency whieh may occur in Texas and New Mexico, and lill up any vacuum caused by foreign shipment from California. The return trade from the West will come to the East in the purchase of dry goods, hardware, agricultural implements, ma? chinery, and boots and shoes, and both East i ?nd West will draw from the Southern , States their supplies of the great Southern staples. Looking, then, to the approaching ? fall trade, we do so with the confidence that ] :here is no reason to anticipate any other than a fairly live and profitable season. The Work and tue Cost. The following aots and joint resolutions have been passed by both houses and been signed by the Governor.
