She is to begin with an investment of forty thousand dol? lars. -Mr. Chorlos Dickons, inanswer to an ap? peal made for the printers' almshouses in England, writes : "I beg to say I shall be happy to devote the cross amount of my next reading in London to the fund. What should I have been without printers ? I am grateful, and wish to snow it." -Mr. W. A. Yislett, one of the largest pro? duce dealers of the Southwest, died in New Or? leans last week. Ho was a native of Alexan? dria, Va., and possesaod the best traits of the Virginian character. For thirty-threo years he had been a prominent merchant in New Or? leans. His op?ration? in Western produce were on the most gigantic scale. -A buried city, it is reported, has been dis? covered beneath extensive lava fields, in the vicinity of the village of Tayahualco, Mexico. Well preserved buildings and dried remains of - human beings, it is stated, have been un? covered. A commission of scientific men has been sent from the City of Mexico to conduce -the explorations. -The State Department suggests to travel? lers that, in view of the troubled condition of a good many foreign countries, passports are a rery desirable thing for American travellers, .and that they cost about five dollars apiece. ' Passports are given only to citizens of the Uni? ted States upon applications supported by proof of citizenship. Applications should be ., made to the Secretary of State in Washington. -An idol temple has been erected at Port? land, Oregon. The building is completed and the Chinamen are actively engaged furnishing it The vestibule contains two large oil globes, insidoof which lamps are burning to show to advantage the heathens h ip figures painted on the outside. One of the transparencies repre? sents celestial warriors or saints, some on foot and some on horseback, who go ronnd and round, propelled in Borne m anner by a current of heated air. -Pictures by old masters, it is asserted, aro seldom to be met with in this country, as tho paintings known as such aro manufactured abroad for this market. The exact apot where the genuine productions of tho psnoils of fam? ous painters can be found is known to the art dealers, and the galleries and priva to collec? tions of Europe, where those relics are pre . served, havo not of late years been broken up and dispersed as they were during the time of Napoleon's wars; hence there is no probability that a real "old master" could find ita way t ) this country. . -A New York letter of Wednesday says : Trinity Church Corporation are not a little dis . turbed by a call which appears in some of the papers to-dav, for a general convention of the heirs of Anake Jans Bogardus, at Orange, N. J., on the 23d of next month, in order to institute the necessary legal measures to reoover the vast property now held by that body. Impor? tant documentary evidence as to tho validity of the claim set up by the heirs, and never before used in the litigation, it is said, will bo sub? mitted to this Convention, together with various other new facts, bearing in their favor. Dele? gates to act for the heirs in all parts of the country are invited to be present. -Low fares on railways, according to the English Quarterly Review, have always resulted In filling the treasuries of the companies. For the last two years Belgium ha3 been trying the experiment of reduced rates, and the success of the plan of cheapening travel has had, it ia asserted, great influence upon tho faros in other countries of Europe. Franco, and espe? cially Prussia, are montioue J as having reduced tho price of railway tickets with beneficial ef? fects. In this country, although competing lines have reduced the fares for a abort time, yet no trial has ever been made for a period long enough to give the cheap fare system a fair test. -The Emperor of Russia has sent to this country two civil engiueers, instructed to make a complete examination of the operations of the Pacific cid1 other great railways in thc Uni? ted State?. The Emperor contemplates build? ing a railroad from China, across Asia to the capital of Russia, his purpose being to prevent tho United States, with its railroads and steam? ships, from monopolizing the whole China trade. These agenta,of-the Russian Emp are in Washington preparing for a winter' sc paign in New England and on the plains. T j will spend a month or two in New Englan learn the mac uer iu which the railroad tn I there are kept clear during tho severe s: storms. -It is reported in Richmond that tho before the recent shooting Grant went Jo . lard and asked him if he was the author bf obnoxious article about his (G.'e) sister. . lard said he was and refused to retract. Gi then challenged Pollard and offered to fi bim then and there. Pollard refused on grounds that he was under bonds and was at liberty to accept a challenge. Grant thi upon told Pollard to beware; that as he had fused either to retract or give houorable sa faction, he (Grant) would shoot him on si; This threat, it seemed, caused the police carefully watch Grant, and tho result was t be found but ono opportunity to wreak his v gean ce upon Pollard, and that was when saw him euteriug his office. The explanat given by Miss Grant's family of her abse from the city is that she had expressed a w to visit Miss Duncan, thc daughter of father's correspondent in Philadelphia, i that tho family withheld their consent, f determined to go, and left last Saturday ni? week, on the Richmond, Fredericksburg t Potomac Railroad train. Her father recer a dispatch on Monday stating that she was Mr. Duncan's sick. Mrs. Grant and her oro cr James wont to Philadelphia, and as soon she was able to travel brought her home. 1 family knew where she started to go. CHARLESTON. MONDAY MORNING. NOVEMBER 30,18( Tue Protested Election. During the progress of the investigati by the Board of Aldermen of this city the manner in which the late Municij election was conducted, we refrained fr making any comments, either upon t statements of the witnesses or the arg ments of counsel. The published procec ings kept the public informed of what w being done, and it was best that no werd condemnation or approval should be-utter by the press while the case was incomple and the result yet undetermined. No however, the long trial has been brought a close, and we may with propriety reheat the causes of the protest-and the means which it was sustained. At the time of holding the Municip election of November 10, party feeling u doubtedly ran high. The friends of tl rival candidates left no stone unturned their endeavor to gain the day, and whi the votes were counted the chagrin of (1 one party at being beaten by a handful votes was equalled by the disappointmei of the other at having been successful t so trifling a majority. Chagrin and disaj pointaient were useless; but there wei many circumstances connected with the pn liminary registration of voters, aa well c with the actual voling, which caused it ( be doubted, by both winners and loser: whether there had really been a regula and lawful eleotion. These things wei promptly inquired into, the result being th presentation of a protest against the elec tion as illegal, irregular and void. Thi protest was signed by some fifteen hundre substantial citizens, who were anxious, no to seoure the election of any man or set c men, but to vindicate that law of the lani which they firmly believed to have beei grossly, if innocently, violated. It was no a movement in favor of Democrat or Re publican; it was the performance of asolemi public duty. The machinery provided by the very lav under which the election had been heh was set in motion. The members of th? City Council were called together, and de (ermined, as the Acting Board of Alder men, to proceed at once, according to law, with the examination of the testimony reli?e on for the proof of the grave charges which had been laid before them. And it is proper tc remark here that, under the circumstances no less objectionable tribunal than the present Board of Aldermen could have been selected to decide a case so peculiar in itself, and which was of so supreme an im? portance to every respectable citizen. The Board of Aldermen, or City Council, hold office by authority of an order issued by General Canny when in command of this State. Only three members of the old board, who had been elected by the people, were retained, thc whole of the others, as well as the Mayor, being appointed by Gen? eral Canby. Six colored Aldermen were appointed, and in the whole Council of eighteen members, there were but three Democrats. At the time of their appoint? ment, they had no power under existing laws to act as judges of contested elections. This power was entrusted to them by the act of 18C8, under which tho elections of November 10 were held, and it may be fairly as?umod that it would not have been conferred upon the Board had not the Leg? islature been confident that they were free from party animosity and from any undue sympathy with the Democracy of the city. They had no personal interest in tho result, for their places were not places of profit or emolument, and it was thought that they would act with fairness and render an im? partial decision. The Republicans did not dream of objecting to the protest being judged by the Board of Aldermen; and the Democrats, while they expected no favors, had faith that justice would be done. Able counsel were not wanting to present and argue the case on behalf of the protestants, and the claimants-those who claimed that they had been duly and legally elected were represented by the Attorney-General of the State, the United States District At? torney, anl the member of Congress from this district. The Board of Aldermen, being rroncrly orgr.uized, begun the hearing of thc case, and met day by day, until all the facts touching the alleged irregularity aud ille? gality of the election had been brought (o their atU?Ucit. It was not attempted to show that this man or that had been or had not been elected. Every argument and every word of evidence was directed to proving that no one had been elected, be? cause the whole election was unlawful and void. The Board heard patiently and consid ered seriously the evidence of the witness*! and the explanations and expositions of coun? sel. They listened to the -argument of the protestants and the reply of the claimants; they compared-as far as might be done the returns with the ballots; they looked into the way in which the managers of thc election had been appointed, the manner in which the managers had organized their boards, the manner of conducting registra? tion, the manner of receiving, counting and returning the votes; and the result is thc decision published this morning, that "there "has been no legal and valid election, aud "that no persons have been duly elected to "fill the offices of Mayor and Aldermen of j "Charleston." Eleven Aldermen and tho Mayor voted for this decision, and three Aldermen voted against it. Three Aldermen were absent and there was one vacancy. So was de? termined the question which had boen agi? tating the public mind for two anxious weeks, and upon whose proper solution de? pended, in a greater or less degree, the happiness and prosperity of every man, woman and child in Charleston. Reviewing now the law and the evidence, we cannot see that it was possible for a body of conscientious men to come to any other conclusion than that which has been announced; and yet it is gratifying to see that the Board of Aldermen, setting aside all unworthy motives, have not sought to evade the burden of responsibility, but have done their whole duty, without fear or favor. Had the decision of the Board been differ? ent, there would have beca but little hope for this people; for it would then have been shown that right must bow to might, and that party success was more to be regarded than constitutional principle. As it is, the truth has prevailed, and the pleasure that wc might feel iu the knowledge that our city is saved from the grip of thc adven? turer and stranger, is swallowed up in the greater joy that constitutional liberty has been asserted and maintained, and the purity and majesty of the law redeemed from all reproach. Two Hundred and Fifty Immigrants. The Bremen bark Gauss, which has put into this port, has on board well nigh two hundred and fifty able-bodied German me? chanics and farm laborers. Most of these were on their way to thc Western States rta Baltimore, but they are willing to live in this State if they can find employment. They have been told at home by itinerant Northern lecturers that there is no law in South Carolina for the foreigner, and that in the South their lives would hardly bc secure. Yet they will settle here if we can give them the same prospect of success which they expect to find in the West. We need not speak now of the value two hundred and fifty hardy and industri? ous immigrants in stimulating the colored people to unflagging labor, in increasing the value of land, and in encouraging thc advent of thousunds of their sturdy fcllow ceuntrymen. They are here at our doors, and it is our true policy to keep them here. This could be done, it would seem, at but email expense. Mechanics are wanted throughout the upper part of the State, and the German mechanics would doubtless have offers of permanent work as soon as their presence in Charleston was known. The laborers can be even more easily disposed of. There are tens of thousands of acres in the most fertile and healthy sections of South Carolina lying idle, provisions are abundant, and lhere would be no cash out? lay in employing the German immigrants beyond the cost of food and clothing. They would, in ull probability, rather have land than wages, and ten acres of land would not be too much to pay for the servi.-es of a German family for one year. These ten acres would be worked by the Geimans the second year, and their cultivation would in? crease the market value of the land which remained. We are not wedded, however, to any particular plan There are two hundred and fifty honest aud industrious white men asking to be made citizens of South Caro? lina. All that we want is to add them to the working power and conservative Btrength of our State. BY OUR Columbia correspondence it will be seen that the receipts of the State Treas? ury in May last were $5G,34G, in June $17,809, in July $41,218, in August $17,102, in September $142,023, and in October $64,307. Total receipts for the B?X months, $339,820. During the preceding seven months the total receipts of the State were only $299,584 The balance in tho State Treasury November 1, 1807, was $20,285. The report of the Comptroller General shows a balance to the credit of the State of $070,750, against a balance to its debit of $1,100,000, when the ldte Comptroller made his report. Governor Orr estimated that the expenses of the Stato for the cur? rent year would be $1,057,000. The esti? mate of the present Comptroller-General, including tht interest which falls due on the first of November, 18GS, and first of November, 18G9, is only $825,000. ?o Sent.

To the People of the Southern States i WHEN THE TURE MEDICINAL RESTORATIVE, ww so widely knov>n as WOLFE'S SCHIEDAM SCHNAPPS, waa inToduced into tho world under be endorsement of-four thousand loading members >f the medical protesslon some twenty years ago, its proprietor was well aware that it could not wholly ?scape the peualty attached to all new and useful preparations. He, therefore, endeavored to invest il with strongest possible safeguard agninst counter citere, and to render all attempts to rfrate it diffl :ult and dangerous. It was submitted to distin? guished chemists for analysis, and pronounced by diem the purest spirit ever manufactured. Its puri? ty and properties having been thus ascertained, sam? ples of the article were forwarded to ten thousand physicians, including all the leading practitioners in tho United States, for purposes of experiment. A :ircular, requesting a trial of the preparation and a report of the result, accompanied each specimen, four thousand of the most eminent medical men in the Union promptly responded. Their opinions of die article were unanimously favorable. Such a preparation, they said, had lona been wanted by :he profession, as no reliance could be placed on thc ordinary liquors of commerce, all of which were more or less adulterated, and therefore unfit for medical purposes. The peculiar excellence and strength of the oi of juniper, which formed one of [he principal ingredients of the Schnapps, tojether with un unalloyed character of the alcoholic ele? ment, give it, m the estimation of the faculty, a marked superiority over every other diffusive stimu? lant as a diuretic, tonic and restorative. These satisfactory credentials from professional men of the Inchest rank were published in a con? densed form, and enclosed with each bottle of tho Schnapps, as one of tho guarantees of its genuino. no?s. Other precautions against fraud were also adopted; a patent was obtained for the arl ide, the label was copyrighted, a Jae simile of the proprietor's autograph signature wav attached to each label and cover, hi3 name and that of thc preparation were cm bossed on the bottlc8,and the corks were scalodwifh his private seal. No article had over been sold in this country under tho name of Schnapps prior to tho introduction of Wolfe's Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps, in 1851; and the label was deposited, OB his trade mark, in tho United States District Court for the Southern District of New York during tbat year. It might be supposed by persons unacquainted with the diring character of tho plratos who prey upon tho reputation of honorable merchants by vend? ing deleterious trash under their name, that the pro? tections so carefully thrown around those Schnapps would have precluded the introduction:, and role of counterfeits. They teem, however, only to have Ktimula'ed thc rapacity of impostor*. The trade mark of th ; proprietor has boen stolen ; thc indorse? ment which his Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps alone received from the medical profession has been claimed by'mendacious humbugs; his labels and bottles have been imitated, his advertisements para? phrased, his circulars copied, and worse than all, dishonorable retailer?, after disposing of thc genuine contents of his bottles, have filled them up with common gin, the most deleterious of ull liquors, and thus made his name and br md a cover for poison. The public, the medical profession and tho sick, for whom ?he Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps is pre? scribed os a remedy, aro equally intercsto-i with the proprietor in the detect iou and suppression of those nefarious piacticcs. Thc genuine articlo, manaiac lurcd at thc establishment of tho undersigned in Schiedam, Heiland, ts distilled from a barley of ihc finest quality, and flavored with an essential extract of the berry of the Italian Jutipo-, of unequalled pu? rity. By a process unknown in the preparation of any other liquor, it ls treed from every acrimonious and corrodive clement Complaints have been received from tho leading physicians and families in tho Southern States of tba sate of cheap imitations of tho Schiedam Aro? matic Schnipps in those markets; and travellers, who are in tho habit of using it a? an antidoto to tho baneful influenco cf unwholesome river water, tes? tify that cheap gin, put up lu Schiedam bottles, is frequently palmed off upon the unwary. The agouti of thc undersigned have been requested to institute inquiries on th" subject, and to forward to him the names of such parties as they mc/ ascer? tain to be engaged in thc atrocious system of decep? tion. In conclusion, the undersigned would say that he has produced, from under tho hands of tho most distinguished men of science in America, proofs un answerable of the purity and medicinal excel? lence of the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps ; that ho has expended many thousand dollars in sur? rounding it with guarantee! and safeguards, which he designed should protect tho public and himself against fraudulent imitations; that he has shown it to bo the only liquor in tho world that can be uni? formly depended upon as unadulterated; thit ho has challenged investigation, analysis, comparison and experiment mall irs forms; and from every ordeal the preparation whi.h bears his name, seal and trade mark, has come off triumphant. He, therefore, feels it a duty bc owes to his lellow-eiftz-ns generally, to thc medical profession and tho sick, to donounco and expose the charlatans who counterfeit these evi? dencies of identity, and he calls upon the press and tho public to aid him in his efforts to remedy so great an evil. The following letters and certificates from thc leading physicians and cbc mstof this city will prove to thc reader that all goods sold by the under? side J are all that they arc rcprc outed to bc. UDOLPHO WOLFE. I feel bound to siy, that I regard your Schnapps as being in every reaped prc-Mniuently pure, and deserving of medical patronage.
