There is no pov? erty and there is no joviality. Of all countries that the traveller visits, the United States is thc most gloomy. Every- one in tho cars has . an?ppressod and gloomy appearance." And eg on, through u long ea?ay. -Recent dispatches from the East Indies :?tato that earthqualc? shocks were felt in the Punjaub on August 20th. The catastrophe in . Soath America ooarred, it will be recollected, from August 13th to 18tb; it is therefor o pro? hibi? that the two phenomena were caused by the same convulsion of nature. As a continu? ous route of shocks from one point to another cn the surface of the earth cannot be traced, it is conjectured that the force of tho internal commotion may have been communicated through the diameter of the earth, Encador and India being opposite. These facts, how? ever, may support the theory of internal fires ?.beneath the crust of the earth. -In the recent South American earthquake, the only person lost belonging to tho Watereo was the boat-keeper of the gig. He was a Scotchman named Tait, who, in this last liie scen?, displayed the native heroism of his race. The frail craft and its sole occupant were car? nied on the crest of the first tidal wave, and thrown back to shore again with the retaining foam of ibo liquid mountain. Tait saw at once, -And seemed to be folly aware of his impending -doom. Seizing the gig's ensign in his right hand, he stood for a moment erect in the stern shoot of the boat, and waived to his comrades a last adieu. All on board the ship looked on .-this .tragic scene with breathless interest. He continued to wave the American flag in the midst of this elemental horror, but the second recoil of the angry waters dashed the gig to pieces, and swallowed the hardy sailor, so that he was seen no more. - The Wisconsin papers tell terrible tales of 'the effects of the collapse of the hop bnbblo, the termina ti cn of the hop fever and tho fall in -the price of hops. For some years past the hop crop has been so abundant, prices so high, and tho returns so large that hop-growers were completely infatuated, and great numbers -of otherwise sensible men were converted into .hop monomaniacs, who thought of nothing, talked of nothing, and cared for nothing but .hops. Every other interest gave way to hops. The- tumble in the price of hops has produced widespread disaster. The farmers in tho hop regions, since the magic reed upon which thoy deaned has broken, are without money and .withont bread; in short, they are left with nothing but mortgaged farms, needy families and ramed credit. The Wi-oonsiu papers say ?that tho result of the present stalo of affairs wilt bo the uprooting of probably one-half the hop yards in the State, and predict that the recovery from so disastrous a crash will be -Blew. -M'ile Luzgel, the pretty French actress, was recently married to Prince Tolstoi, one of tho wealthiest young noblemen of St. Peters? burg. The Prince 4'popped the question" in a -somewhat unusual manner. There was a fair ?fct tho bi. Petersburg French Theatre, for tho boacLL cf tho French hospital. Mlle Luzgel presided over one of the stands at the fair, and Prince Tolstoi banteringly asked her how much she would take for a kis?. She glanced at him rather sternly, and replied that she would not kies any man but her bethrothed. The Prince passed on, but returned to M'Uo LuzgcPs . stand a quarter of an hour afterward, and said rather thoughtfully to the young actress, "Will you permit me to aek you another question, Mademoiselle ?" "With pleasure, sir." "Have yon a bethrothed?" She eyed him a moment in surprise, and said then, with a blush and smile, "No, sir." "Would you like to havo one ?" "That depends on circumstances," said she laughing. "Well, then, would you take me ?" So saying, he handed her his card. She was greatly astonished, and finally stammered ont she would give him an answer next day. .On the following morning he called at her house, tho ro. ly was in the affirmative, and to - day Mademoiselle Luzgel is a Princess and a happy wife. -A duel took place on the 27th, on Dutch ? territory, between M. Rochefort, of the Lan? terne, and M. Ernest Baroehe, son of the Min? ister. M. Ernest Baroehe i3 Master of Re? quests in the Council of State, acd an officer of tbe Legion of Honor. The cau?e of tho duel was an article in the Lanterne in reference to the recent demand of a schoolmaster named Bochefbrt for permission to change his name. J&. Rochof?rt thereupon asks what will happen i M. Baroehe pere should grant the required permission. He will bo obliged, for controver ey sake, to change hie own name, since it is borne by a son publicly accused of swindling, and of malversations in the affair. Mires caused it to be affixed with ignominy to thc walls of Versailles. He then proceeds to taunt M. Baroehe for having arrested all tho world excopt his son. Thia appears to havo lcd to a challenge from M. Ernest Baroehe, thc Minis? ter's son, and tho gentleman alluded to. The duel was with swords. It took place on Dutch territory, and lasted no less than thirteen min? utos. M. Ernest Baroehe received three wounds, one on tho thigh, another on the breast, and a third in tho side. M. Henri Rochefort was slightly wounded on thc right arm. Tho witnesses of the latter were Messrs. Charles and Francois Victor Hugo, the two sons of the illustrious poet; those of M. Ernest Baroehe were M. Adolph Bclot and an officer j of whose name we hre ignorant. Dr. Lausss was present at the duel, and attended to the wounded gentlemen. -Thc New York Evening Mail says: "One of the curiosities of Printing House Square-is the huge engine which runs the Mail press as well as many others. This is owned by a firm in Spruce-street, between William and Nassau, and occupies the basement of tho* building. There is a large one hundred and fifty horse? power engine which ruus during tho day, and a seventy-five horse-power which relieves it at night. From this shalting and belting distri? bute the power in every direction. One shaft run8acro93 Frankfort-street,supplying the Mai audcthor ofhaes. Another crosses William street and runs the six cylinder presses which print the three hundred thousand copie3 of the Ledger in its beautiful press room. Another shaft crosses Spruce-street, runs through and across Beekman, and even supplies presses in Ann-street. Altogether this engino supplies over one hundred and twenty-five presses, each being estimated and charged so much for horse power, according to thc estimates. It ruus three-quarters of a milo of main shafting, be? sides a mile or more of connecting shafts, and ;is much belting. One of these belts (au India rubber one), one hundred and twenty feet long, connects a fifth-story pross-room on Nassau street with the main shafting on Spruce, across tho intervening yards, and another ?eather ono on Beekman-street, one hundred and forty feet lone, perfectly peipendicular, "connects the sub cellar and attic. This engine prints all McLauchlin's coy books, runs tho immense establishment of Bradstreet and J. N. Oliver, besides many other job printers, a hocpakirt manufactory, and several bint'erioa, and prints nearly fifty papers, besides maaazines and books innumerable; among them thc Mail, the Independent, the Dispatch, the Leader, Star, Examiner and Chronicle, Observer, Courier, Clipper, Wilkes' Spirit, Turf, Field and Farm, Police Gazette, La Crosse Democrat, Ledger, New York Weekly, Literary Album, Sunday Times, New York Democrat, Commonwealth, Scottish American, Freeman's Journal, Tablet, Emerald, Irish People, Irish American, etc. Truly, a power in the world. CHARLESTON. THURSDAY MORNING, OCTOBER 15,1868. For President.HORATIO SEYMOUR. For vice-President.FRANCIS P. BLAIR. NU Desperandum. Thc result of the elections in Indiana, Pennsylvania and Ohio is a grave disap? pointment; but neither Radical victories now, nor the possible election of GBANT in November, should cause our people to aban? don their struggle with difficulty and mis? fortune. They have hitherto maintained a firm front under doubts and troubles with? out number; and :hcy must not now fold their arms and cry that all is lost. For this State, as for all the Southern States, there is n higher law than?that popu? lar creed which makes riches and prosperity depend on the election of Democrat or Rad? ical. Tbe election of Mr. SEYMOUR would not, in a moment, lift the country out of the depths, close the wounds of war, and change the fields made desolate into smiling towns and villages. Upon our own energy and constancy would still depend the meas? ure of our success. A Democratic triumph would give assurance of a helping band and moral aid to our people; but it would be fraught with danger if it lessened our fortitude and relaxed our industry. The election of GRANT, on the other baud, could not destroy us. It would niako our task harder and more painful; but all the gods in the Radical Pantheon cannot keep us in the dust, if we firmly resolve to be stout of heart and never to falter in the determina? tion to work out the redemption of this stricken Southern land. Even though our negro government should seem to bs permanently fastened upon us, we know the white people of thc South; we know the resources of our State; we know the weakness and dependence of the freedman; and knowing these things, we feel that if we are true to ourselves, and do not fritter away our time iu talk, it is simply impossible that the black man should con? tinue to hold the reins of government, or that this State and this city should be long prevented frcm growing rich in all the ele? ments of substantial and lasting prosperity. Thia may seem unreasoning faith; but it is faith with works, and the root of (hat faith is confidence in the white race, and in the unflagging persistency of our people. Had the Democrats carried the October elections, no one would have doubted the coming of better days. As it is, there is still room for manly confidence. This is our country, the country in which we all must live, and with which ov fate is linked for weal or woe. The enduring record of an unsullied past, and an intelligent appre? ciation of the means to a prosperous future, alike forbid our people to despair. Wc can yet rule the State as it was ruled of old-by intelligence and worth. We can yet make the country oveitlow with pros? perity and rich in the elements of great? ness. We can yet retrieve our every dis? aster, and make bright our darkened page with the gilding of hope and promise. This* we can do, let November bring what it may. Shall it not be done ? Bulwer. MISCELLANEOUS PEOSE WOK KS. BV Edward Bulwer, Lord Lytton. In two volumes. Sow York : Harper & Brothers. 18C3. Charts ton : Holmes' Book House. BULWEE impresses the reader with the idea that his fame has been won by hard work. In his first literary production of any merit-a poem in 1S2?, on sculpture he symbolized his literary life. His s'udio has always been thronged with models standing thick around the half formed 'HE CHARLESTON DAII groups through which thc incessant chisel wrought its way, and when the perfect forms appeared, few had such finish as not to betray here and there the mechanical secret of their origin and the design for which they were put together. There is more mind than heart in his genius-more constructiveness than passion. His char? acters feel cold to the touch, although often? times the ;>0AV is so admirable, thc situation so dramatic and the figuroso airy, so grand or se beautiful, as wholly to disarm criti? cism. You willingly forget that Pelham is a ?aricature of BULWER in society, and Pvienzi a political friend of BULWER in Par? liament; that Glanville is a civilized "Cor? sair," and Paul Clifford an artistic and philosophic "Jack Sheppard;" that Zauoni is a fable of Love's Sacrifice, and that the terrible scene of Clifford's condemnation by his own father is borrowed from Mrs. LNCUUALD; for consummate art conquers your convictions, and persuades you that the ideal lives and the beautiful copy is a great origin?!. The remark specially applies to the earlier period of his literary career, to which most of the essays now before us belong. His later novels, although char? acterized by the melodramatic, are, never? theless, marvellous triumphs both of skill and of genius. And they differ in an im? portant particular from their predecessors, for their moral is high and pure. BULWER'S prose essays have been com? paratively ignored, ou account of the trans? cendent interest attaching to his novels. Yet they are well worthy of attention, as among the best of their class. Buring his editorial charge of the ' New Monthly Mag? azine," the author served an apprentice? ship to this style. lu undertaking "to show "that a gentleman could be au editor," he succeeded in taking a high rank among British essayists : for the sketches written at this time and subsequently are among the most finished and thoughtful ol his produc? tions. They are full of movement, brilliant with fancy aud wit, and, in their allegories, fu'l of truth and imagination. The philo? sophic wisdom which ever tinges his versa? tile pen, here becomes the more impressive beoause undisturbed in its tranquil flow by the necessities of the narrative. The short stories and the essays, whether airy or grave, all have a certain family resemblance, and lead a train of sweet and serious medi? tation. The first volume contains, for thc most part, the essays of the author's mature life; the second the lighter tketches of his youth, if, indeed, we can apply that name to a series which contains tho admirable "Con "versations with au Ambitious Student in "111 Health;" thc third, yet to appear, wi'l coDlain the "Caxtoniunn," a collection of j his more matured opinions. The essays on GOLDSMITH;, Sir THOMAS BROWNE and SCHIL? LER are charming biographies, full of?pirit and character. In the oecond volume, we have been particularly pleased with "Lake "Leman and its Associations," and with the "Influence of Love on Literature." The introduction, which, we are sorry to say, is badly written, reminds one of the dingy portal of one of the Greek houses nt Con? stantinople-it admits into a scene of beauty and magnificence. _ Co Ucnt.
