This institution, established since the war by one of the first ladies of the State, has met with deserved succeed. It affords every facility for obtaining a kuowledgeof the higher branches of education and those a.complish ments deemed necessrj-y to young ladies enter? ing society. But wlmt is of more voluo, it en? ables tho pupil to ajqmre that refinement of thought and feehng, aDd those graces of de? portment, which can' only be imparted by a true lady. With such advantages, it is no WOD der that this school has already taken its place in the front rank of our Southern female insti? tutes, i : ' ' _.

THE HEALTH OF CHAELESTON.-The sum? ming up of the bill of mortality for last week only one death among the whites and twenty among tho blacks-affords two subjects for serious reflection-?rst, tho extraordinary health of the city at this soason of the yoar; second, the remarkable contrast between the mortality of tho whites and negroes. In re? gard to the health of tho city, Charloston is always healthy except when visited by epi? demics, and there is,.with that exception, of course, but Little difference between the ave? rage mortality in winter and summer. From epidemics; we have been entiroly free since the close of the war, uuless the small pox io 1865 and 1866 was entitled to bo so-called. That wo have been'free from yellow fever is easily accounted tor by the strict quarantine which has been maintained, and tue absence ot trade with yellow fever ports. As tc whethor that is the true way of accounting lor it, doctors differ. Thc large mortality aaion;' the colored pop? ulation as compared with that among the whites, will aston's'a no ono who Las seen the squalor and filth in which tho majority of the negroes of this city live, to gay l.o'.btug of their addiction to mid light carousals of every kind. Thoy live iu tho wurst Louses and in the moat unhealthy localities in thc city. Un? accustomed to take care of themselves, they aro satisfied to Uve from hand to mouth, often s lending in a day tho belter part of ibo carn- j ings of a week, or even of a mon'ii, and nearly stirvmg themselves until thc next pay day. Of course there arc mauy creditable exceptions to this account, but it is correct as regards the largo body of the negroes, and especially of those who havo drifted to thc city irom tho plantations of tho hw country. Want of cleanliness, tho lack of proper nutri? ment, and thc abicnco of skilled medical at? tendance, doubilcss render many cases among the colored people falal, wh ch. but for these causes, might have a more favorable termina? tion. Thc wreck cf the prosperity oi the white people has of course enhanced, m a great de? gree, thc misfortunes of thc blacks. From thc very nature of thc negro, however, these causes must continue to work with more or less fatality, no matter what may bo (ho condi? tion o? tho whites; and although in ela very thc negroes increased rapidly, in freedom they will gradually disappear. CONGDON'S SYBTEM OF PENMANSHIP.-We are indebted to Holmes' Book House for eight numbera of this series. Tne copies are care? fully graduated, tho pupil being conducted from tbe elementary strokes to the most elabo? rate achievement of penmanship. He will hero find every thing in the way of help and sugges? tion, needful for the attainnent of a distinct and beautiful chirography-shaded lines, ob? lique and perpendicular, striking upon the usual parallels, and thus guiding him in the formation, s'opin? and spacing of thc letters copies for practico, perfect in proportiou and execution-analyses of tho first principles and structuro of letters-commercial forms-forms for ladies-ornamental texts-German, old English, Roman and nondescript, and uhtpely flourishes in great variety. Instructicus aro given to teachers and pupils in regard to the use of tho books, tho positioa iu writing, thc grasp of thc pen, and tho movements by which the letters are to be executed. In this system the long letters are more deeply shaded than the rest; thc small a's and -s's are similarly dis? tinguished-a peculiarity which seems to bo a mere conceit until one observes how it breaks the monotony of the mating, which would otherwise tire with its delicate strokes and consummate fiuish. Congdon's penmanship needs o ily to be examined in order to win its way to general favor and use. HOTEL ABRIVALS-September 16.-Charleston ZTofeL-rJesso D. Horsey, steamer Falcon; Wm.
