Sales 10,000 bales. -It is estimated that one hundred and twenty thousand peopb daily pass the Astor Honse, in New York on foot, and sixty-five thousand in carriages. -The Emperor of Austria, the King of the Belgians, and President Johnson Bent th?ir expressions of condolence to the Rothschild family on the occasion of Baron James' death. -Direct trade is to be established between Chicago and the West Indies, via Mobile, by the construction of a railroad between Cairo and Columbus. Ey., and the organization of a line of steamers between Mobile and Havana. -Mrs. Commodore Meade makes affidavit that her husband is not only affected in his in? tellect, but in one leg also. The New York Sun remarks that a man might be bliud of one eye without being crazy, but it is readily perceiv? ed that if he is lame of oue leg his walk in life must be somewhat deranged. -The Washington Star save: "Chief Jus? tice Chase bas notified the other members of the Supreme Court that no consultation will be held on the Legal Tender case for some time to come. This will prevent any decision on the matter at the present time, lt is under- | stood that no decision will be made till after the holidays." -The Lawrence, Kansas, Tribune has the following from a wife, which is a strictly legal document :-"To whom it may concern : I "hereby give notice that the sale of spirituous "liquors to Homer Hays is contrary to my "wishes, and that I shall prosecute according "to law any person who disregards this notice. "Catherine Hays." By the law of Kansas a woman can prosecute any Uquor-seller who sells to her lord and master. -A Washington telegram of Monday says : ..Tho Supreme Court of the United States was to-day engaged hearing argument upon claims of Southern ship-ownerd for vessels seized during the war. Tho ground of claim is that the vessels were forced into the Confederate service, and that owners were powerless to prevent it. General Butler, acting in place of Hon. Caleb Gushing, made a speech for the government to-day. These cases will occupy ?the-attention of the court all the week." -The Washington coi respondent of the Baltimore Sun writes: *'lhe whereabouts of Hon. Caleb Gushing seems to be somewhat of a mystery. It has been stated that ho had gone to Spain for the purpose of negotiating for the purchase of Cuba, but this is now con tradicted, and it is stated upon good authority that he has gone to Bogota to consult with the authorities of New Grenada in regard to a ship canal across the Isthmus, between the ' Aih.ntic and the Pacific, and it is further ? stated that he will return in about thirty days." -The Court of Appeals of the State of Mary? land has just decided in the case of Abell & Co. against the Chesapeake Bank, that even if the Legal Tender act be constitutionaLcontiacts to pay in gold or silver are enforceable accord ing to their terms, and judgments may and mutt be rendered on them tor payment in coin. This is no more than every one sees to be reasonable and proper ; but in view of the conflicting decisions on the subject, it is tobe hoped that Congress will pass the bil] legali? zing coin contracts without delay. -The question whether a person at the -theatre bas a right to hiss au actor or actress 'in token of disapprobation of his or her per formance, is about to be legally tested in Low York, it seems, by some gentlemen whom the police placed under arrest for hissing Miss Lydia Thompson, at Wood's Museum, Thurs day evening. The action will take the form of one for damages against tho managers of the theatre for trespass upon the rights of their patrons, and violation of the spirit whioh gov ems the various acts of incorporation by which places of public amusem ent are regulated. -The Archbishop of Armagh lately made the daring statement in the House of Lords, that if the Protestants could not have places of worship, thev must emigrate; aud if they emi? grated, then Ireland, left to Roman Catholics, must be governed by the gibbet and the sword. Ho afterwards tried to soften tho biu tality of the speeoh by expkining that what he meant was, that the difficulty of governing Ireland would be greatly increased by the emi? gration of the Protestants; but he really meant what he said, and thinks there is no hope of keeping down Catholics except by violent means. -A company has been formed in New Or? leans called the Mississippi aud Mexican Gulf Ship Canal Company, which bas for its object the opening of a ship canal f.-om the Mississip? pi River at English Turn to the waters of Lake Borgne. The canal is to be twelve feet deep, and, when finiahed, from one hundred and twenty-five to one hundred and fifty foet widc The company propose to have it ready for nav? igation by January 1, 1870. If the project should be successful, it will, it is asserted, shorten the distance by water to the Gulf ports east of the Mississippi about fifteen miles, and in many other ways materially benefit the commerce of New Orleans and the Western States. -The fifth Bession of the "Conference of Unitarian and other Christian Churches of Middle and Southern States" will be held in the First Unitarian Church, Wilmington, Dela? ware, on Wednesday and Thursday, December 16 and 17. The opening sermon will be preach? ed by the Rev. Everett Halo. This Conferenco includes the following churches: Unitarian Churches of Philadelphia, Germantown and Northumberland, in Pennsylvania; First Inde? pendent Church, and Church of the Saviour, in Baltimore, and the Unitarian Churches in Washington, D. C., Vineland and Alco, New Jersey, Charleston, South Carolina, and New Orleans, Louisiana. All the churches will probably be represented bv delegates or bv letter. -Speaking of steam as a motive power on street railroads, a New York letter says: "It costs the Third Avenue Railroad Company over a million dollars a yeur to work their line. They run two hundred cars, requiring them to keep on hand about eighteen hundred horses, and tho expense of running each caris about sixteen dollars a day. They are now consider? ing a proposition which, if they accept it, wiil enable them to run each car for five Dr six dol? lars, A gentleman in Detroit hag ?icovered a. meaos of supplying steam pawer to street cars in such a way that their will neither be smoke nor sparks, nor more noiso than is made by a sewing machine. The discovery has been tested in Detroit, and found to wo:k well, and it will probably be introduced on our city railroads. Besides Ita cheapness it offers the advantage of heating tho cara by steam pipes in cold weather, an advantage that must be appreciated by all who stamp the toes out of their boots in street care, in vain attempts to keep out the froBt. The street railway sys? tem in New York needs a great deal of improve? ment, and the introduction of steam as a mo? tive power might be a good beginuing. Tho horses might shy at it at first, and run away and kill people, and the boilere might blot" up, now and then, aud kill more people; but what :s this consideration to going along fast and being comfortable ? especially in a city that believes in killiug people as New York does." CHARLESTON. THURSDAY MORNING, DECEMBER 17,1868. CASH ts ADVANCE.-On and after this day, the payment of subscriptions in advance by all the subscribers of THE NEWS will be rigidly enforced, and the paper will not bo sent to any one unless it has been paid for. To this rule there will be no exception. Persons 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 system, and receive the paper at the rate of fifteen cents a week. Our Municipal Affairs. Mayor Clark presented to the City Coun? cil yesterday a paper in which he marks out the policy which, in his opinion, should control our Municipal affairs, and makes various suggestions which are expected tc have the effect of improving the financial condition of the city. The value of these suggestions will, of course, mainly depend on the manner in which they are carried into effect; but it is proper to consider at once the general outlines of the scheme of retrenchment, improvement and reform. In this city we are not accustomed to sud? den and violent changes, and, although we have passed through a war of gigantic pro? portions, and an armed peace which over? turned nearly all that stood erect when the clash of arms was hushed, the whole frame? work of our Municipal administration is the same that it was eighty years ago. There have been changes and modifications, it is true: but the organic law of the city has not been substantially changed since it was formed in 17S3. It is evident, then, that changing times and changing circum? stances have made necessary more than one amendment of the city charter, and when tho proper time comes we shall be prepared to define what modifications are most re? quired. In the meanwhile, it may be Baid that the Mayor should undoubtedly be nothing more than an executive officer with? out a vote in Council. This chango must be made at the first opportunity. We concur with Mayor Clark in the opin? ion that it is of the first importance that the city should meet promptly and punctu? ally the interest upon its obligations, and we sincerely hope that the interest on the city debt may be paid on and after April next. This would be of vaut benefit to the whole oity, as well as those most directly inter? ested. The estimated expenditures for the year ending January, 1871, show a flat? tering reduction from the estimates of the current year. A saving of one hundred and fifty thousand dollars is, in this way, expected to be made; while fifty thousand dollars of borrowed money will be paid, the interest maturing after January 1 be met, and sundry sub? stantial improvements be carried out. A ohange in the system of assessment may probably be made with advantage, and although the city may not call loudly for a new assessment, the citizens do desire that taxation may be equitably distributed, and that every kind of property shall pay its quota to the common fund. No change how? ever, could be made in time to affect the taxation for the year beginning January, 1869. We think that the Mayor is mistaken in his estimate of the value of the landed estate in this city of the South Carolina Railroad Com? pany, and we do not see how the city can tax property which is by charter exempt from taxation. This matter, however, could easily be determined by the legal adviser of Council. If the action of the railroad company is "in accordance with laws," no legislation can constitutionally deprive them of a privilege which is made perpetual. The consolidation of the two city hospi? tals, if it can be done without affecting the value of those institutions, is certainly ad? visable. This matter should be considered at an early day. We believe with Mayor Clark, that the remarkably healthy condi? tion of the city during the year is mainly due to the Health Department, and hope that it will be maintained in all its vigor? ous efficiency. The recommendations of the Mayor in regard to the House of Correction, the mar? kets, the police or Mayor's Court, salaries, the city buildings, the city printing, the tidal drains, and the plank and shell roads, are generally prudent and sensible; but we are not disposed, with the information be? fore us, to advise that every poor woman who is unable to earn bread for her family should be forced into the Alms House or allowed to starve. The police can, we believe, be reduced in numbers, without any injury to the efficiency of the force or to the city. We have, it seems, more officers than we need, and two horses, to be used for giving alarms, ought to be enou?. ?. We are well satisfied that it is cheapest in the end to do the eily work substantially and well. Much of the work done on the streets during the last twelve months has been of a lasting and durable character, and it has cost less money than the same work ?id under the old system. Lighting the streets is an expensive mat? ter. If the cost can be lessened, so much the better. The Fire Department it is"" better to leave untouched. It is a volunteer organ ization, and perhaps the most efficient one, paid or unpaid, in the whole country. We are opposed to any meddling with the Fire Department of Charleston upon any pretext whatever. We are constrained to believe that some changes may be made, with advantage, in the management of the Orphan House; and we are pleased that the Mayor directs attention to the manner in which the Sisters of Mercy conduct their invaluable institu? tion for orpban children. The City Orphan House is too costly for the length of the Municipal purse, and we think that the ex? penses could be cut down without interfer? ing with the noble purposes for which it was intended. The Fire Loan ordinance may, it seems, be amended with advantage. It is certainly important to build up our waste places as rapidly as possible. Of other prospective improvements suggested we are not ready to speak, but there can be no objection to any public work which will do much good at a small expense. We have touched but briefly upon the many suggestions made by the Mayor, and repeat that the scheme, as a whole, meets with our approval. Its success must, how? ever, depend upon the ordinances which are to give it effect, and upon the diligence and fidelity with which they are executed. Mayor Clark writes very much to the point, and has, we believe, laid down practical principles which will, in time and with proper care, lessen taxation, encourage trade, and place our Municipal credit be? yond a shadow of reproach. These happy results cannot be reached in a day, but the first great step has been accomplished in making public a programme, by adhering to the general plan of which they may cer? tainly be attained. A VAHisTT of cotton, called lace cotton, is beiDg introduced in some parts of Texas, and is likely to he extensively raised. It is to bc supoiior to any other variety for poor soil or uplands, having a strong, healthy growth and yielding heavily. Its strength is equal to a strain of seven and a half pounds to each thread, while a similar thread of tho best American cotton will lift only five pounds. Tboie who.havo examined it say that it re? sembles Egyptian cotton, which is worth in England a quarter more than American. Good results are anticipated from a cultivation of this variety of cotton. If it is successful it may quito generally supersede the poorer qual? ities, and largoly increase thc income ot tho Southern planter. THE COMMISSIONEE of Agriculture reports very favorably of all oar harvests, especially those of thc South, which is recover? ing in a remarkable degree some of ils former conditions. The present yield of cotton there is as great as that ol the year 1850 and about half tho amount of the extraordinary products of 1859 and 1800. Tho receipts in cash for tho year 18G7 were larger iu figures than those of 1859-though of coarse allowance must bc made for the different values o? the dollar. In tte last two years thc product in sugar has boen doubled, and rice cultivation is thriving in nearly the srme proportion. Nature is still tbc same in thc South, Mid ail her elements of plenty and prosperity are as numerous and flourishing as ever. SOMEBODY wrote to Bagby, ono of the bright? est wits of thc Old Dominion, and editor of the Native Virginian, as follows: "By tho way, what is to become of the la? dies and gentlemen of Virginia, born to afflu? ence, with rcfiucd tastes, but now bereft of means? 1 wish you would treat the subject, as you can so well, in your paper." To which ho makes pointed answer in this wise : "There is but ono way to treat tho sub? ject. We know a young gentleman in whose "veins tho best blood of Virginia and South "Carolina is mingled. He was a good soldier, "for he loves war and hates farming. On the "hottest days in summer, wo have seen bim, "hoe in hand, sleeves rolled up, arms bare io "the elbow, working like a steam engine from "dawn until dark. This man, by pluck, by "industry, and by prudonce will win back what "his fathers won before him by means of tho "same qualities. Not the pride of race, but "the strength of blood, will make him a mas "ter again. Such a man will not bo kept down. "As for those Virginia ladies and gentlemen "who will not stoop to conquer, (thatlact alone "throws a doubt on thc purity of thoir blood,) "they will live and die miserably." TUE XEWsparens are begining to growl at thc appropriation of the enormous sums annually voted by Congress fur keeping our coastwise forts in repair, when it is already demonstrated that nono of them can stand before thc fire of tho heavy guns that may be floated within range of tbom m front. Earthworks aro proved to bc moro effective as defences than masonry. The amazing improvements that have been made of late, and with such rapidity, in war projectiles, united to tho facilities for moving thc eame to any desired point by steam power, and thc still farther advantage to tho assailaut of protection !?y iron mail for his ships, have wrought a complete revolution in the science of coastwise defence, and render it necessary to begin the work almost de novo. The moni? tor can with ease bring up its twenty inch gun ond break the most massive masonry into crumls. Oo the other baud, no gun has yet been invented powerful enough in any respect to keep these monitors beyond range ot mis? chief, nor has any wall been consiructed that is able to resist the battering force ot the huge midern gun. Ia view of these undeniable facts, rendering it necessary to prepare to meet au enemy's monitors with guns afloat instead of ashore, it is urged that tho further repair of our cjast defences upon the elaborate ami costly scale, heretofore customary, ia a sb ?er waste of money.

Imp?t ter of the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps, \ No 32 Beaver-street. ? NEW Tons, November 3. 1868. J To thc People of tnc Southern States : WHEN THE PURE MEDICINAL RESTORATIVE, now so widely known os WOLFE'S SCHIEDAM SCHNAPP?, wes introduced into thc world under tbe endorsement of four thousand leading members of the medical protession some twenty years ago, tts proprietor was well aware that lt could not wholly escape the penalty attached to all new and useful preparations. He, therefore, endeavored to invest it with strongest possible safeguard against counter? feiters, and to render all attempts to pirate it diffi? cult and dangerous. It was submitted to distin? guished chemists for analysis, and pronounced by them 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 the United States, for purposes ot experiment. A circular, requesting a trial of the preparation and a report of the result, accompanied each specimen. Four thousand of the wost eminent medical men ia the Union promptly responded. Their opinions of thc article were unanimously favorable. Such a preparation, they Faid, had lone been wanted by the profession, as m r?ionco could be placed on the 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, wnich rbrmed one of the principal ingredients of the Schnapps, together with an unalloyed iharacter of the alcoholic cle? ment. give it, in 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 highest rank were published in a con? densed form, and enclosed with eoch bottle of the Schnapps, as one of the guarantees of its genuine? ness. Other precautions against fraud were also adopted ; a patent was obtained for the article, the label was copyrighted, a Jae simile of the proprietor's autograph signature was attached to each '.abel and cover, his name and that of the prcparatira were em? bossed on the bottles, and the ...irks were sealed with his private seal. No article had ever been sold in this country under the nome of Schnapps prior to the introduction of Wolfo's Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps, in 1851 ; and thc label was deposited, as his trade mark, in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York during that year. It might bo supposed by persons una quainied with the d iring character of the piratos who prey upon thc reputation of honorable merchants by vend? ing deleterious trash under their came, that he pro? tections so carefully thrown around these Schnapps would have precluded tho introductions and sale of counterfeits. They seem, however, only to novo stimulated tho rapacity of impostors. Thc trade mark ot th? proprietor has been stolen; the indorse? ment which his Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps alone received from tho medical profession has been claimed by mendacious humbugs; his labels and bottles have been iui(atct). his advertisements para? phrased, his circulars copied, and worso thou oil, dishonorable retailers, ofter disposing of the genuine contents ol' his boUles, have filled them up witta common gin, tho most deleterious of all liquors, and thus made his name and br ind a cover for poisou. The public, thc medical profession and thc sick, for whom thc Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps is pre? scribed as a remedy, are equally interestc ' with the proprietor iu thc detection and suppression Ol* these nefarious ptactices. Thc genuine article, niauuiac tured at the establishment of the undersigned in Schiedam, Holland, :s distilled from a barley of the finest quality, aud flavored with au essential extract ol'tho berry of thc Italian juuipc*, of unequalled pu? rity. By a process unknown in the preparation of any other liquor, it ls treed from every acrimonious and corro-ivc clement. Complaints have lieon received from thc leading physicians and famines in thc Southern States of the sale of cheap imitations of thc Schiedam Aro? matic Schnapps in those markets; and travellers, who are iu the habit ot using it a? an antidote to thc bauend influence of unwholesome river water, tes tify that cheap gin, put up in Schiedam bottles, is frequently palmed oil upon iho unwary. The agent- oi the undersigned havo been requested to institute inquiries on the subject, and to forward to him the names of such parties as they may ascer? tain to be engnged iu the atrocious system of decep? tion. lu conclusion, thc undorsigned would say that he has produced, from under thc hands of thc niost dlstinguirhca men of science in America, proofs un answerable of the parity and modicincl excel? lence of tho Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps ; that he has expended unny thousand dollars in sur? rounding it with guarantees and safeguards, which ho designed should protect thc public and himself against fraudulent imitations; that he has shown it to bo thc only liquor in tho world that can be uni? formly depended upon as unadulterated; that he has challenged investigation, analysis, comparison and experiment in all Its forms; and from every ordeal thc preparation whLhbcars his Dame, teal and trade mark, has come off triumphant. He, therefore, feels it a duly he owes to his lellow-citiz -ns generally, to thc medical profession and tho sick, to denounce and expose tho charlatans who countcrleit these evi? dencies of identity, and he calls upon the press and the public to aid him in his efforts to remedy so great an evil. The following letters and certificates from the leading physicians and chemists of this city will prove to the reader that all goods sold by tbe uuder signe J are all that they aro repre CDted to be. UDOLPHO WOLFE. I feel bound to say, that I regard your Schnapps as being in every respect pre-eminently pure, and deserving ot medical patronage.
