Ho feels coofideut that the Senate will agree to pass it, and that with the aid of the Southern members he will get it through the House. t . ?-Tho Washington National Monument As? sociation has appealed to the pastors of all tho churches in the United States to take up col? lections on Fobruary 17th, the Sunday im? mediately preceding Washington's birthday. ' The object is to obtain funds to resume the work, whioh has for some time been sus? pended. -A New York letter says that Chief Jsstice Chase, in conversation with reference to the effect of the President's amnesty proclamation ou Jefferson Davie' case, intimated that the country had probably heard the last of-that case, but that if Davis would consult his own self-respect he would spend the rest of bis days with bis friends in E i eland. -Norwegian felted boxes, for cooking, are attracting great attention in London. Tbe food is placed upon the regular fire for a short time, and the dish is then removed and en? closed in ihe felted box for three or four hours, by which time, it is asserted, the confined heat completes the process of cooking. The appa? ratus is coming into use in England for shoot - ing parties and picnics, and is recommended as admirably suited to the wants of the poor. -The following is put forth as the pro . gramme of Napoleon III to secure the Im? perial throne to his eon: A few days previous to the general elections in June nest, Napo? leon? to abdicate in favor of his son, and this abdication is to be ratified by a pelbiscitc. This move, it is thought by tho Imperialists, would bring out a very fall voto in thc country districts, and it would not only be ratified by an overwhelming majority, but would also secure the election of the government candi? dates in all the CIOB3 and doubtful districts. -The establishment on tho river Uruguay, South America, for the manufacture of Liebig** Extract of Meat, it is stated, has the largest kitchen m the world. The buUding covers an . area of 20,000 square feet, or nearly half an acte. In one hall there are four meat cutters, which can dispose of 200 bullocks each per hour. There are twelve digesters, in which the meat is boiled by steam. They can hold altogether 144,000 pounds of beef. About eighty oxen per hour are actually slaughtered for this immense manufactory of meat ex? tract. -The announcement has just been made to the Royal Astronomical Society of England of the discovery, by means of tho spectroscope, of a hitherto unknown envelope of gaseous matter surrounding the sun, of a thickness of seven or eight thousand miles. Its precise composition has not yet been determined, but will probably before long be ascertained. At the same time, Mr. Huggins, who has made so many important discoveries in roferenco to the comi.osition of the heavenly bodies, by means of th. spectroscope, presented a communica? tion stating that at least one comet contains carbon ina state of ignition. -Compressed air, it is asserted, will soon be used in Now Orleans as thc motive power of the street cars, since the necessary machin? ery is rapidly approaching completion. At? mospheric railways have hcretoforo proved failures. The apparatus consists of a cast-iron tubo of about forty inches diameter, having a slit of about two inches wide on its upper side. The slit is covered by a flexible flip or valve, and furnishes an opening through which the mechanism of a piston, working within tho tube, is connected with thc carriage. Two short railroads on this plan were constructed in Eng? land, and ono in Ireland, but tho expense and care necessary to keep tho tube and valve in good working order were so great, that the at? mospheric machinery was soon abandoned. -The New York Times, of Wednesday, re? marks: "An enlarged trade was noted yester? day in cotton at a fractional advance in price?, the reported sales making an aggregato of nearly 7200 bales. The estimated supply now here is abonb30,000 bales, and at all the ship? ping ports of th? country, at latest .dates, 295, 0P0 bales. The receipts at thc ports since Septomberl add" up 931,000 bales,- against 807.000 bales same time last season. Tho ex? ports since September 1 amount to 453.000 bales, against 401.000 bales the corresponding period la*t year. Thus it appears that tho exports since thc commencement of thc cur- ' rant season hare been equal to nearly fifty cent, of the receipts at. the ports, or appn lu.itely in the same proportion as durin? first four months of the year 1867-8. Midd! grades closed in this market yesterday at ?26i cents, against 15*?164 cen!s per pom year aso. The currency value of the exp< Curing the hirst four months of the curr colton year will be probably forty per c< - aore than that of the shipments from thc 1 the corresponding months of tho last cot yoar." -Mr. Peabody's gifts for benevolent purr, cs are larger than wo lld be supposed, fi the mere publication of the donations as tl occur. A list has recently been publisl placing the gold value of this eminent Ann can's benefactions at $7,735,000, not includ tho large sums contributed to promote tho terosts of the United StateB at the Worl Fairs and at international banquets. T largo amount is made up of tho followi items : To tho poor ot London, $1,750,0 Baltimore Instituto, $1,000,000; foreducat iu the South to blades and whites, $2.000,0 for a museum to preserve American reli Yalo CobVge, $150,000; for a similar musei in Harvard College, $150,000; for institute a education at Danvers, $230,000*; for a free n scum at Salem, $50,000; to the State of Ma land, $250,000; Bishop Mcllvain for Reny College, $25,000; Kane's Arctic Expeditii $10.000; for "Memorial Church" to his moth $100.000; to members of his family, $2,000,0 This total of $7,735,000, when reduced to ci rency, will amount to $10.560,000._ CHARLESTON. SATURDAY MORNING, JANUARY 2, 186 The havannah and Charleston Rallroi Company. The bill before the Legislature for t relief of this company proposes-first, an e dorsement by the State ot the companj bonds, in an amount sufficient.to absorb t past due coupons, on the five hundred and fi thousand dollars of bonds originally endor ed by her-which new issue shall rank u der the lien then given her,-and second', her retirement of this lien, and her coi sent to another having priority over it, fi the security of an issue of five hundn thousand dollars in bonds, to be used f< the reconstruction of the road. We belier that this bill embodies the true and ju: course to be pursued. It does the State n harm: secures what the majority of he citizens desire, viz: the earliest possible rt construction of the road; promotes tb public good in the greatest degree; and, a the same time sustains and vitalizes th corporation which asks its passage. What are the objections to it ! The fol lowing are among those urged : 1st. Tho it asks of the State a "further contribution iu behalf of this road; 2d. That it will in crease our taxes; 31. That it will swell th' "contingent liabilities" of the State, am thus imperil her credit; and 4th. That it in volves a breach of good faith towards thi company's bondholder. The two first are met by the simple facti of the case. The bill does not ask the appro priation of a single dollar, and, couse quently, there can be no increase of th< public debt on its account, the interest 01 which would have to be provided by addi tional taxation. On the contrary, it look: rather to a diminution of taxation, by con verting a neglected and unproductive sec lion of the State into an improved and tax paying one. But it is said, that while the bill may not ask an actual appropriation, il certainly would be adding to the "contin? gent liability" of the State, and so impah her credit. Wo reply that it would dc neither the one or the other. What already exists cannot be considered as "contingent." None will deny that the endorser upon a bond is as liable for the interest thereon SB for the principal; and hence the State is, this day, as much bound to protect the accu? mulated interest on these bonds, which she endorsed, as the bonds themselves, when? ever due. Why object to giving au expres? sion tb this liability ? and placing it in a rhape available to her creditor and conve? nient to herself. The omission to do it is far more calculated to impair her credit. But the broader ground is taken that the bill proposes to fasten upon the State the liability to pay a certain debt, when she might rid herself of it by a sale of the prop? erty; and that she is next asked to weaken ber position, by accepting a second lien upon this property in lieu of a?rst, which she now holds, and thus render this "liability "to pay," almost a certainty. Now, all this is based upon the supposition, and, indeed, thc assurances of those taking this position that 1/brought to a sale, thc road would to? day command a sum equal to all the obliga? tions of the State in its behalf, or say seven hundred thousand dollars. Any chance of loss is not, then, admitted by them. Now, all might agree that, let the road belong to whom it may, an assumed sum of five hundred thousand dollars is necessary to its completion. This expendi? ture cannot be avoided. If, then, the property was worth seven hundred thousand dollars before repair, it should unquestionably be worth one million two hundred thousand dollars after such repair; and, consequently, if the State was safe in the first case, she is not one whit the less so in the second. And here, in passing, let it be borne in mind that the principal of the debt, about which so much anxiety is manifested, is not yet due. But we aro next met by the sup? position that the road may be unprofitable, and may be unable to pay its interest, when the State would be compelled to interpose its aid-and it is this liability we would have her avoid. In reply, we would urge with equal, if not greater plausibility, that it will bi profitable and will be able to make its iuterest. This is tho conviction of sound, shrewd, disinterested and prac? tical men. It must also be that of parties willing to buy the road, or else they would manifest no disposition to parchase it. We have next io consider tbs objection of the bopdholder-that the passage of this bill would be nu iujustici to him. We really do not see this; iudeud, we are at a loss to discover ia what way he is tobe affected by it. We have, first, to rcuind him, however, of a fact of which hs may b? ignorant, that when the State endorsed his bond, she expressly reserved to herself the right to enact any laws she might think proper fer her protection in the premises And that period has arrived. To secure herself in this endorsement, the State took a mortgage of the company's property. This mortgage is directly to her, not to the bond? holder. The latter can, in no way what? ever, reach it-no more than any other property held by, or mortgaged to, the State. In fact, he holds nothing more than a State bond; and, the company being in? solvent, his sole recourse is upon her. How she may determine to manage her asset?, in order to meet his demands, is a matter for her own discretion, not his. If a course is pursue ' which is not approved by him, he may arraign tho policy and wisdom of the Legislature; but be should not impugn its motives, and charge it with any breach of good faith. The fact is, he is chagrined at findiog himself the holder of a bond, with (aB he thinks) an "equity right'' in a certain mortgage which he cannot touch, and with an endorser whom, being sove? reign, he cannot gue; in other words, that he is completely " without a remedy," as both persons and property are inaccessible to him. Thi3 may be so, but it should not make him impracticable or unjust. In this case the endorser is certainly in the wrong place-he is in front of thc property, instead of being behind it. To remedy this, we should not, object to such an alteration in the bill, if practicable, as would make the property directly liable to him in the event of acy failure to pay principal or interest, and requiring him to exhaust it before having any recourse upon the State. We think, how? ever, that the bill provides for this contin? gency-in authorizing the State to take possession of the property, &c -which mig! be deemed sufficient. Oae point more. The opponents of this bill are anxious for a Bale of the road, and would invoke the aid of the Legislature to that cud. They claim that its present own? ers, though originally bondholders, became so at very reduced pricer; that they have not appropriated their private means to the completion of thc road, and that they should now be a wept off, and bc made to give place to others who arc ready to take hold of the property and restore it. The answer to all this is a brief one. We have nothing to do with the cost of this property to its present owners, the date of their purchase, or tht price or currency paid for it, though, doubtless, many were interested in it be? fore thc war. It i9 enough for us that they now own it. They have not been, and are not now, as a body, in a condition to restore it to usefulness and yet they are strug? gling to save it to themselves, as others have done, and arc now doing, with their wrecked property, in the hope eventually of* realizing something from it. With the assistance ' of thc Legislature they can do this; and, furtheimore, we believe that they can and will rebuild the road in a much shorter time than would be required by any other parlies. This is thc point which most con? cerns (he public. They nant the road, and will, we think, cheerfully endorse the men and measures securing it lo them in the shortest possible time. QUITE A STIB has been created in Now York during tho last week by thc publication ol' facts in regard to thc adulteration of liquors in common use. Tho World newspaper has been sending around to tho bars of the leading ho? tels for samples of the liquor sold by those in? stitutions, and nobody will be surprised to loam that most of it proves to be badly adul? terated. A chemical analysis, prepared by Professor John 0. Draper, shows that in most cases both brandy and whiskey are piovedto contain large proportions of fusil oil, a dan? gerous poison with powerful intoxicating qual? ities; while there waa not a single case in which tba liquor had not been largely diluted with water. Professor Draper certifies that out of nine different samples of brandy, pro? cured at tho beat places in New York, and paid for at from thirty to fifty cents a glass, there are but two which h3 pronounces genuine, and o/en of these he can only say thoy ?re probably real brandy. If this bs tho fact respecting the aristocratic driuking shops, what uort of stuff is that which is retailed in tho cornsr grog shops to the great mass ol' consumers ? IN A COEESNT magazine article Horace Gree? ley says of the '-Virtue of Persistence :" "I think the world is vory gonerally misled by that vague term, genius. Far be it from me to tlcuy that comc aro born with loftier ca? pacities, quicker perceptions, happier mental constitutions, than others; ye4.1 think what is best in a human intellect is not capacity, but tendency. Of tho three decideJly moat giftocl and brilliant young mon I lia ve kuowu, one died in a poorhouse of delirium tremens, an? other sunk into an early grave, respected, but also the victim of alcoholic stimulation; tho third, tbousii h rJly thirty, is to-day a vaga? bond and a cumbcrer of thc ground, to (vboin it would be very unsafe to lend a dollar."

[ NEW ?OUK, Nov.mb?r 'J. 18CS. j To thc Pf o jilt of thc Southern States : WHEN THE PURE MEDICINAL RESTORATIVE, now so widely known as WOLFE'S SCHIEDAM SC?NAPPr, was in rod need into the world under the endorsement of four thousand leading members of tbe medical profession some twenty years ORO, its proprietor was woll aware that it could not wholly escape the penalty attached to all new and useiul preparations. He, therefore, endeavored io invest il with strongest possible safeguard against counter? feiters, and to render all attempts to pirate it diffi? cult and dangerous. It wa; submitted to distin? guished chemists for analysis, and pronounced by them the purest spirit ever manufactured. Its puri? ty and properties having been Urns ascertained, sam? ples of the article were forwarded to ten thousand physicians, including all the leading practitioners in the United States, for purposes of experiment. A circular, requesting a trial of the preparation and a report ot the result, accompanied each specimen. Four thousand of the most eminent medical men in the Union promptly responded. Thoir opinions of tho article were unanimously favorable. Sucb a preparation, they said, had long been wanted by the profession, os no reliance 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, which formed one of (he principal ingredients ol the Schnapps, together with an unalloyed character of the alcoholic cle? ment, give lt, in thc estimation of the faculty, a marked superiority over every other diffusive stimu? lant os a diure-ic, tonic and restorative. These satisfactory credentials from professional men of the highest rank were published in a con? densed form, and enclosed with wich bottle of the Schnapps, os one of the guarantee^ of its genuine? ness. Other precautions against fraud were Uso adopted; a patent was obtained for the article, the label was copyrighted, a Jae simile of thc proprietor's autograph signature wa; attached to each label and cover, ki i name and that of the prepara ti on were i m bOBMd on the bottles, aad the corks were scaled with his private seal. No article had er? been sold in this eouniry nuder tho nome of Schnapps prior to the introduction of Woiro:n Schiedam Aromotic Schnapps, in 1851; and the label was deposited, as his tindo mark, in tho United States District Court for the Southern District of New York during that year. It might be supposed by persons unacquainted with-tho d iring character of tho pirates who prey upon thc reputation of honorable merchants by vend? ing deleterious trash nuder their name, that the pro? tections so carefully thrown around those Schnapps would have precluded tho introductions and sale of counterfeits. They seem, however, only to have stimulated tho rapacity of impostors. The trade? mark of the proprietor has been stolen; the Indorse? ment which his Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps alone received from the medical profession has been claimed by mendacious humbugs; his labels and bottles have beon imitated, his advertisements para? phrased, his circulars copied, and worso than all, dishonorable retailers, aftor disposing of the genuine contents of his bottles, have filled them up with common gin, tho most deleterious of ull liquors, and thus made his name and brind a cover for poison. Tho public, thc medical profession and tho sick, for whom Ihe Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps is pre? scribed as a remedy, are equally intereste i with thc proprietor in thc detection and suppression of these nefarious practices. Tho genuine article, manuiac tured at the establishment of tho ui'dprsignpd in Schiedam, Holland, is distilled from a barley of ?he finest quality, uod flavored with au essential extract of the berry of the Italian ju ipe -, of unequalled pu rit y. By a process unknown in the preparation of any other liquor, it ls heed from every acrimonious and corro.-ive olomeut. Complaints have boan received from the leading physicians and families in the .Southern States of the sale of cheap imitations of the Schiedam Aro? matic Sclin .pps In those markets; and travellers, who are iu tho habit ot using it as an antidoto to the baneful influence of unwholesome river water, tes? tify that cheap gin, put up iu Schiedam bottles, ls frequently palmed off upon the unwary. Tho ogents of the undersigned havo boen requested to iustitutc inquiries on th? subject, and to forward lo him the names of such parties as they may ascer? tain to bo engaged in the atrocious system of decep? tion. In conclusion, thc undersigned would say that ho has produced, from undor thc banda cf the aio.-t distingui-hea men of scionco in America, proofs un answerable of the purity ond medicinal excel? lence of (be Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps ; that he has expended many thousand dollars in sur? rounding lt with gnurantoc.? and safeguards, which ho designed should protect the public and himself against fraudulent imitations; that ue has shown it to bo tho only liquor in the world that can be uni? formly dopended upon a? unadulterated ; tu it Lo has challenged investigation, analysis, comparison and experiment In all Us form*; and from every ordeal the preparation \v hi h bears bis name, *cal and trade mirk, bas come off triumphant. He, therefore, feels it a duty he owes to hi3 lellow-cit'z ns generally, to thu medical protesten and the sick, to denounce and expose tho charlatans who counterfeit these evi? dencies ol identity, and he calls npon thc press and tho public to aid him in his efforts to remedy so great an evil. Tho following letters and ceri i il ea tes from the leading physicians and chemists of this city will prove to the roader that all goods sold by thc under? signed arc all that they arc rcprc outed to bc UDOLPHO WOLFE. I icel bound to say, that I regard your Schnapps as being in every respect pre-diniuenlly pure, and deferring ot medical patronage. At all events, it is thc purest po.-riblc article ol Hoiland Gin. htreto lore unobtainable, and as such may bc safely pre? scribed by physicians. DAVID L. MO CT, 51. D., Pharmaceutical rheinist.
