-Whilo the silk worm is dying ont in the

result of the wonderful climate of oar Pacific
coast is that the best worms and most healthy

fornia silk-growers have reached them from
Prance and Italy for all the eggs they can pro?
duce for. years to como at $4. per ounce, Each
ounce containi ag 40,000 eggs. The California
Legislature has sought to encourage this
valuable interest by offering a premium of $250
for cultivating 5000 mulberry trees for' silk
culture, and $300 for every one hundred thous?
and silk cocoons, produced in good merchant?
able order.
-The story about the importation into Tex?
as, and sale of coolies, was a joke. The cool
i es in question was simply cast iron figures,
designed tor segar, tea, tobacco and grocery
stores. Several Radical papers were thrown
into fite by tho report, bat are rapidly recover
Lng. The Philadelphia North American thus
-went off tho handle: "The worse feature in
" the affair is that two-thirds of these unhappy
Chinese axe- females, some of them beautiful
Uf coarse they wero bought in China on spoon
lation and sent to Texas to seek a market, just
as the same kind of live stock of a different
race used to be s eat to Ne w Orleans. This -dc
velopment is nothing new in regard to tho
Chinese coolie trade, except in so far as tho
importation of women goes. This is a novel?
ty."
-The New York swindlers have invented a
new method of doing business, the modus ope
randi of which is thus detailed: "Some few
days ago an elegantly dressed lady, accompa?
nied by a well dressed gentleman, entered the
store of a prominent jeweller and asked to be
shown some diamonds. A costly tray was
handed them by the gentlemanly and obliging
clerk, and as they were examining and 'choos?
ing, comparing and rejecting,' the clerk's at
teotion was attracted by the entrance of a man
who beckoned him cautiously aside, and show
ing a star concealed beneath his coat, in?
formed the clerk that he was an officer, and that
he had been watching the couple at the counter
for some time. He advised the clerk not
to interfere with them, bat show them what
they asked for, and if they attempted to secret
anything he would arrest them. The clerk
soon noticed that the suspected couple quietly
stowed away several valuable diamond rings,
and et this juncture another person entered
the store, als? bearing a star beneath his coat,
and at once gently tapping the genteel pair oa
the shoulders, blandly requested tho pleasure
of their society at the police station. Tho first
officer told the clerk that the prisoners would
have to be searched, and that ho would then
return the stolen property in the course of an
hour or so. The confiding clerk assented, and
the prisoners and captors disappeared. Thc
proprietors have thus iar looked in vain for the
glimmer of their leturning diamonds, and the
mon who have a right to wear stars are looking
after the pretended policemen."
-There are in California sixty-two thou?
sand Chinese, nearly all enrolled in 6ix clubs,
corresponding to the six districts from which
the emigrants eame. On the arrival of an
emigrant ship agents from the clubs proceed
on board and take cljarge of those who have
come from the districts represented by their
companies. At the club house the emigrant is
boarded and lodged at a small coat until he
has obtained employment. 8hould he be out
of work at any time afterwards he is permitted
to return, and should ho be siok, lodging is
provided for him. Ia case of indigent, sick or
disabled, the clubs, if they should not be pro?
vided for by private contributions, find
odgings, pay doctors' bills,' and, iB cases
where it it necessary for the patients,
to rotara to China, defray the cost o?]
their passages. The name of every member
is inscribed in a book kept for tho purpose,
and, to prevent "the absconding of defaulting
[ debtors, all persons proposing to return to
China arc bound to report their intention to
the committee of tho club, who only allow
them to depart when they are satisfied that in
doing so they will leave no just claim unset
tied. In most of the club houses a room or
I part of a room is set apart for the worship of
free spirits of deceased membere. There an
altai is erected, on which are placed the offer?
ings of friends and relatives; while behind it ia
kept the lengthening, melancholy roll of those
who have died in tho land ot their exile.

TUESDAY MORNING. DECEMBER 15, 1868.
CABH ta ADVANCE.-On and after this day,
tho 15th instant, the payment of subscriptions
in advance by all thc subscribers of THE
NEWS will be rigidly enforced, and the paper
will not be sent to any one unless it has been
paid for. To thia rule there will be no excep?
tion.
Persona whose stay in the city is to be short,
or who for any other reason may not be dis?
posed to pay the subscription in advance, can
avail themselves of our weekly delivery and
collection Bystem, and receive the paper at the
rate of fifteen cents a week.
A Vcvr Scheme ot* Direct Trade.
The chairman of the Agricultural and In
terna! Improvement Committee of Georgia
publishes a circular letter, in which he says
that it is his intention to introduce a bill in
the General Assembly of that State for the
incorporation of an association whose ob?
jects shall be "to secure commercial advan?
tages, gold for cotton and laborers for
"farm work." The capital of the associa?
tion is proposed to be obtained by a sub?
scription on the part of the cotton planters
of Georgia; it being estimated that enough
will become members to raise by cultivation
two hundred thousand bales, upon which
an assessment or subscription of two per
cent, would give an amount of two million
of dollars. This would be sufficient to es?
tablish a line of steamships between Sa?
vannah and Liverpool, and Brunswick and
Liverpool. The cotton of members of the
association would bc carried free of charge
by these lines, and the ships upon their
return would briDg gold for the cotton, as
well as farm laborers and such supplies as
the planters might require. Ry this plan,
it is estimated that thc producer would save
"ten cents per pound on long cotton and
"five cents per oound on short cotton," lost
by the pre?- manner of shipment and
sale; an.'' ' *-<? a saving of great
moment ' . '. Is imported di?
rect. W.. chemes to show
what Geo. of doing, and for
the addif ?. . our people may
learn how mue easy it is for this
State than for . to secure all thoee
graau naran uicn must grow out of
the direct ex\ .on of our produce and
the direct imp.. tatton of the goods required
for consumption.
We do not believe that the Georgia plan?
ters will act together with sufficient una?
nimity to make the new joint stook shipping
association a success, even ou paper; and
in the promise to carry free of charge the
cotton of members, there is room for un?
ending trouble and confusion. The Boheme
may become an accomplished fact-in time;
but to our mind the only certain and safe
way of continuing this business of direct
trade, is by forming a steamship company
in the usual form, but with Southern capi?
tal, whose shareholders shall rely for their
profit upon skilful and intelligent manage?
ment, and to which shippers eau well afford
to pay .a fair rate of freight. This, how?
ever, cannot bo done until the South can
command more commercial capital. For
the present, we must be content to have
"direct-line'' steamships owned wholly or
in part by foreigners; and it is a gratifying
circumstance that, while Savannah has not
yet been able to send from her waters the
first steamship of what is to bo the direct
line between that port and Liverpool,
Charleston has already dispatched one fine
steamship-the Golden Horn, of the Charles?
ton and Liverpool Direct Steamship Line,
and has the Camilla, the second ship of the
same line, already in port and receiving
cargo.
"While, then, Georgia is talking about
"direct trade," Charleston hus established
"direct trade," and it becomes us not to
relax our efforts. We mu3t not be content
with one line or two, six steamships or a
dozen; but should keep pushing things until
we have demonstrated to the merchants
across the water the importance of our South
era trade, and to the planter at home how
much he has regularly lost by allowing him?
self to be made, without a murmur, the com?
mercial bondsman of the merchants of the
North.
Wo do not expect, nor do we want, the
"direct-line" steamships lo bring us back
laborers to take the place of the freedmen
on the farms and plantations of the State;
but wo waut manufactured goods of every
kind and description, and we want the pro?
ceeds of our cotton remitted in gold, not
paper. It i3 this direct trade which has
made Northern cities grow up in almost
oriental magnificeuc?, and direct trade will
cause Charleston to become a port second
to none on the continent. Whatever the
efforts that may be made, no Southern port
can long keep in advance of Charleston; for
not one ha3 tho natural facilities and advan?
tages which are hers. But it is useless (o
speak of overtaking othors when we already
have tho start. The Charleston direct
steamship linc is in operation already, and
we hope that every planter throughout the
State will give it his immediate and steady
support, both in exporting cotton and im?
porting supplies. The nows should be
Bpread throughout the State and the adjoin?
ing States. We must talk for ourselves.
Others will not talk for us. The whole
South is interested in the future of Charles?
ton and we should not fail to .show the
South which way her interests lie. In the
meantime, Bond down your ootton for the
"direct-line."
Good News from the Country Districts.
? _?_>. .- g
-All the accounts which are received from
the country districts, of South Carolina
agree In reporting that the condition of the
people is rapidly improving, and that du?
ring the last few months there has been a
marked change for the better in their busi?
ness and agricultural prospects. A glance
at the local papers will show this to be the
case, and we are encouraged to believe that
the State is now making substantial pro?
gress in adapting itself to the new condition
of things, and in retrieving those losses and
misfortunes whioh were only aggravated by
the three first years of pseudo-peace.
In Lancaster County, on soles-day, the
lands in the market were sold at fair rates.
Four thousand pounds of seed cotton has
been gathered from o two acre lot in this
county. The Lancaster Ledger says that
preparations are being made for the intro?
duction of prolific cotton plants and im?
proved agricultural implements; also, that
"with us it may be truthfully said, that the
"old things have passed away."
In Abbeville County, on last sales-day,
more real estate was offered than is known
to have been in the market at any one time
before. This property sold well, although
it did not oommand the prices of before the
war. About fifteen thousand acres of land
were sold. The gross amount of the sales
was $23,000. This does not look as if there
was no money in the State.
In Oconee, the culture of tobacco, once a
staple product of that section, is to be re?
commenced. Tobacco, at present prices, is
expected to give the farmer about two hun?
dred dollars for each hand employed. A
factory is to be put up, and the plant will
be manufactured in the county in which it
is raised.
In Pickens County a new vein of gold has
been recently discovered, and machinery is
expected to be put up for pounding the
quarlz. The agricultural prospect is ex?
cellent.
In Greenville, the land sold on sales-day
brought prices far higher than the prices of |
one year ago, and money is said to be one
hundred times as plentiful as it was in the
first and second years after the war. Kcal
estate was sold amounting to about $24,000.
In Barnwell the farmers are sound, finan?
cially. They have a good supply of bread
stuffs, trade is more lively, and there are
no poor in the neighborhood.
This is but a little of the cheering news
which wc have received from thc country
districts of South Carolina.
THE EFFOBT lo purchaso Cuba outright,
which, as hinted in our telegrane yesterday,
is at thc bottom of Mr. Calal: Cushing's special
errand to Madrid, seems likely enough, ai this
time, to result in success. Mr. Seward, on thc
ono hand, is no doubt anxious to end his offi?
cial career in this Jeffersonian style-while, on
the other, the now government in Spain will
find in any fair offer of the United States thc
easy solutiou of a torritotial problem which
promises a good deal more trouble than probt.
It r.ould bc better for Spain to have her bud
in the hand than in the bush, as it is nor.-.
Tar. ISSUE in the recent English elections
was that of the disestablishment of thc En?
glish Church in Ireland. That matter may
thereforo be considered as settled. But it will
hardly end there. The principle touches the
church establishment throughout the United
Kingdom. In rooting out the establishment
from the soil of Ireland, it must likewiso come
jut from that of Scotland ; and tho samo pro?
cess must bo carried out in England. Thc de?
cision for Ireland is the axo laid at the root of
the tree. The connection of Church and'Stato
is to be severed. The prerogatives ol' tho
Drown itself, always held sacred, aro in the
same peril because so closely associated with
the threatened establishment. We may con?
sider the day of privilege in Great Britain to
have como to its close.
THE VEXED QUESTION ot the status, in an Eng-1
lieh point of viow, of a naturalized citizen of |
tho United States, who had formerly boen a
British subject, may bo regarded as settled at
last. Mr. Reverdy Johnsoa, m a recent speo?h,
delivered at Brighton, mentions a number ot
the points agreed upon botween tho "two gov?
ernments and Lord Stanley and myself.''
Among other things, it has beeu agreed "that
tho laws of citizenship between the two coun?
tries shall in tho futuro be tho same, and that
the naturalized citizen in either sJia'l in ali fu?
ture lime enjoy ai all respects !hc rights of a
native citizen." And au, said Mr. Johnson, "an
irritating cause of disturbance, a cuue which
has more thau once threatened imminent war.,
is closed, and dosed, thank (?od, forever.'' It
will be observed by the passa.^o wc have itali?
cized that this question has been settled with
England on piccisoly the samo terms that it
was lately settled with tho German States by
Mr. Bancroft. Tho measure is perfectly fair in
simply demanding that American naturalized
citizens shall be treated, when abroad, pre?
cisely as though thoy were native-born Ameri?
can citizens.

OFf ICE OF UDOLPHO WOLFE.
Sole Imp?t ter of the Schiedam A rnmatic Schnapps,
No- 23 Bcaver-strttt.
NEW TonK, November 3. 1868.
To the People of the Southern States :
WHEN THE TURE MEDIC1N \L RESTOIUT]
now so widely known as WOLFE'S SCHIEI
SCHNAPP?, was in roduced into the world m
thc endorsement of four tnt i-.sand leading mern'
of the medical profession some twenty years agc
proprietor was well aware that it could not wi
escape the penalty attached to all new and ua
preparations. He, therefore, endeavored to inve
with strongest possible safeguard against eour
feitccs, and to lender all attempts to pirate it c
cult and dangerous. It woo submitted to dis
guished cnemists for analysis, and pronounced
them the pares! spirit ever manufactured. Its p
ty and properties having been thus ascertained, s
pies of the article were forwarded to ten thous
physicians, including all the leading practitioner
tho United States, for purposes of experiment,
circular, requesting a trial of the preparation an
report of the result, accompanied each speeim
Four thousand of the most eminent medical mn
the Union promptly responded. Their opinions
thc article wero unanimously favorable. Sue
preparation, they said, had long been wanted
the profession, as no reliance could be placed on
ordinary liquors of commerce, all of which w
more or less adulterated, and therefore unfit
medical purposes. The peculiar excellence i
strength of the ol of juniper, which formed om
thc principal ingredients of the Schnapps, togct
with an unalloyed character of the alcoholic i
meet, give it, in the estimation of the faculty
marked superiority over evory other diffusive still
lant as a diuretic, tonic and restorative.
These satisfactory credentials from professio
men of thc highest rank were published in a c
densed form, and enclosed with each bottle of 1
Schnapps, as ono of the guarantees of its genuh
ness. Other precautions against frand were a
adopted ; a patent was obtained for the article, \
label waa copyrighted, a fae simile of tho propriotc
autograph signature was attached to each label o
cover, his name and that of the preparation were t
bossed on the bottles, and thc corko were scaled w
his private seal. No article had evor been sold
this country under tho nome of Schnapps prior
tke introduction of Wolfe's Schiedam Aroma
Schnapps, in 1851; and thc label was deposited,
his trade mark, in the United States District Cot
for thc Southern District of New York during tl
year.
It might be supposed by persons nnarqnaini
with the djring character of thc pirates who pt
upon the reputation of honorable merchants by vcr
lng deleterious trash under their name, that tho pi
tections so carefully thrown around these Schnap
would havo precluded the introductions and salo
counterfeits. They seem, however, only to ha
stimulated the rapacity of impostors. Thc bra
mark of th: proprietor has been stolen; thc ind on
ment which his Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps ala
received from the medical profession has bc
claimed by mendacious humbugs; his labels at
bottles havo been imitated, his advertisements pat
phrased, his circulars copied, and worse than a
dishonorable retailers, aftor disposing of thc genuii
contents of his bottle.', have filled them up wi
common gin, the most deleterious of all liquors, at
thill, made his name and brjnd a cover for poison.
Thc public, thc medical profession and thc sic
for whom the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps is pr
scribed as a remedy, are equally iutercstc ! with ll
proprietor in thcdcteeiioa and suppression of the
nclarioufi practices. Thc genuine article, manilla
tured at thc establishment of thc undersigned i
Schiedam, Holland, is distilled from a barley of ll
finest quality, and flavored with an essential extra
of thc berry of thc Italian jin lpe-, of unequalled pi
rt ty. Dy a precess uukuown in the preparation i
any other liquor, it ls treed from every acriraoniot
and corrosive clement.
Complaints havo been rceived from tho Icadiu
phys;cians and families in thc Southern States <
thc sale of cheap imitations of tho Schiedam Arc
marie Schnapps in those markets; and traveller:
who are in tho habit of using it as an antidote to th
baneful influence of unwholosomo river water, tel
thy that cheap gin, put up in Schiedam bottles', i
frequently palmed off upon tho unwary. Th
agents of the undersigned have been requested t
institute inquiries on the ai.bjecf, omi to forward t
him the names of such parties as they may afCt i
tain to bc engaged in tho atrocious system of derer,
rion. In conclusion, tho undersigned would say tho
he has produced, from under tho hands of ihc mo;
distinguished men of science in America, proofs ur
answerable of thc purity sud medicinal excel
lenco of - the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps ; tba
bc has expended many thousand dollars in sur
rounding it with gu?ranteos and safeguards, whiol
ho designed should prelect tho public and bimscl
against fraudulent imitations; that Lc has shown i
to be thu only liquor in thc world that con be uni
formly depended upon as unadulterated; that ho ha
challenged investigation, analysis, comparison an?
experiment In all Its form?; and from every ordoa
the preparation whi'.hbcors bis name, seal and trad)
mark, has como off triumphant. He, therefore, feel*
ita duty he owes to his follow-cltizons generally, tc
thc medical profession and tho sick, to denounce
and expose the charlatans who counterfeit these evi
dencies of identity, and he calls upon the prose anc
tho public to aid him in his efforts to remedy EO grc.ii
an ard.
The following letters and certificates from thc
leading physicians and chemist i of this city will
provo to tho reader that all goods sold by the under
signel are all that they aro rcprc- outed to be.
