Hi s election is not contested, as is gen? erally supposed. His opponent talked of con? testing, but did not give legal notice of such purpose. -The Hungarians resideDts in the United States are asking tho government to establish a Consulate at Pesth, for the purpose of plac? ing within tho reach of their countrymen" in? formation whioh would facilitate omigration to America. -Boston papers hint mysteriously at an "event" which is to take place ia that city in a few weeks, and which is to he the grandest re? union of instrumental performers and the largest cnorus ever known in the musical an? nals of this or any other country. -The Vicksburg (Miss.) Times says: "We understand that tho distinguished soldier and statesman is houoring our county with his pre? sence. lu years gone by General Hampton was a frequent visitor to his "possessions in Issaquena and Washington, annually taking his favorite sport of bear-hunting ia these grand old swamps. -In Erie, Pennsylvania, some brauches of manufactures, such as soap-making, aro car? ried on by the burning gas from wells, the constant stream ot flame hoing made available for heating the kettles. These streams of gas can be quickly lighted, cause no trouble, there being neither dirt nor cinders, and at the same time are sale, as every partido of fire can be shut off in au instant. -Tho New York Sun favors the opening of the public libraries ou Sunday, also lectures, Ac. The Sun says: "It ic, easy enough to say that people ought to go to church, teach in Sunday school, and read good books, but they will not do this, and the next hast thing ia to give them at least something that they will do, to keep them out of mischief." The desideratum then, according to the Sun, is to be found in pleasant and comfortable reading rooms, where they could find books, magazines and newspapers in abundance. -Gus Holing, a mulatto, was hanged in Tarboro', N. C., on New Year's Day for the murder of Matthew King, a negro, in May ^ 1867. He confessed the crime before he died. While on the scaffold the negro popu? lation, which was out in foroe, scaled the fenc3 built around it, in accordance with the law di ? recting that executions shou'd be conducted privately, and sung hymus and prayed with the condemned until he had to request them to cease. He was unable to stand when tho knot was adjusted, and the sheriff and a negro held him up cnlil the drop fell. -The Constitution of Iowa requires tbat in tho State University women shall be admitted to aU the classes and in all the departments on tho same terms as the men. ibo institution is not fully organized. In the academical de partaient, women form thirty-two per cent, of the freshman CRIBS, seventeen per cent, of tho sophomore and seven per cent, of the junior class. There are no females in the senior class nor in the law department, which was organ zed last Septembsr. Thc medical dopa riment will not go into operation until September, 1869. -Whiskey, it is asserted, is manufactured in New York city according to tho following recipe: Common whiskey forty gallons, water forty gallons, tincture Guinea pepper three gal? lons, tincture of pellitory ou9 quart, acetic ether two ouuees, and strong tea ono and a half gallons. Tho alcohol m this mixture is so much reduced in streugth that the dratrs must be added to restore tho tasto, which burns tho palate like fire. Tho dealer thus makes eighty five gallons of imitation whiskey out of forty gallons of common stuff. This recipe should warn all persons against tho use of such poi. sonous bovorageF. -The Washington correspondent of the New York Commercial writes: Senator Sprague re? turns to his seat in the '"Senate, re-elected for six years by the Rhodo Island Legislature. It is said tie senator proposos' to take a more active part than formely in tho debates and public matters generally. He is turnius his attention especially to the rehabilitation of the South, and towards such moans as pre available in aiding the development of mar u factures and the restoration of commercial prosperity. Report says that his recent pur ohase of nine thousand acres of choice laud at ten dollars per acre on Cumberland Island, op? posite Fernandina, Florida, is but the first of j the investments of a similar character tLnt Governor Sprague intends to make in the South." -Congressional proceedings opened on Tues? day with a senatorial attack upon the constitu? tional prerogative of tho Executive, which led to an animated debate. Mr. Ferry, of Connec? ticut, submitted a resolution calling on Presi? dent Johnson for a copy of his late amnesty proclamation, and the authority under which it was issuod. Although it was ostensibly a simple call for inform?t'~i, in reality it was notice of a combined assault by the Radical wing of the Senate upon his constitutional power to grant pardons and reprieves. Tho resolution was finally adoptoi, and much in? terest will be felt to know how the President wiU respond. The point, as made by the Radi? cal side c' the Sc nato, is that the clause of ihe constitution which says the Presideut "shall have power to graut reprieves" does not em? brace "amnesty." -The Now Orleans Crescent relates the fol? lowing circumstances in connection with the recent death of ex-Governor Morehead, of Kentucky, at his plantation in Mississippi : "lhere was something touching and even tragical in the circumstances of Governor Morehead's death. The plantation at which he died was a property which, after tho war, when noarly 3sventy years of age, by a dint of cheer? ful avd indomitable euorgy, undor difficulties which might hav.-> appalled a much younger man, he had restored from a state of wreck of devastation to a condition of (?pod order and productiveness. Ho had made an unusually fine crop the past season. His pecuniary hopos it seems were dependent upon its proceeds, and the bulk of it was stored in a treacherous gin house. Called up in the night by the an? nouncement that the gin house had caught fire, he rushed forth to behold the flames bursting through tho roof. He rea:l in them the nothingness of the year's arduous labor and expenditure, with the possible sequel of bankruptcy and romcdiless poverty. Tho shock killed him OJ the spot." CHARLESTON. FBIDAY MORNING, JANUARY 8, 1869. The New British Ministry. The London Telegraph says that the ab? sence of so conspicuous a name ns that of Lord Russell is simply explained-the vet? eran Liberal chief prefers not to take office. The appointment of Mr. Bright to a com? paratively unimportant department-the Board of Trade-may also excite some sur? prise, arising from; the singularly high po? sition of the occupant. It is Mr. Bright's own choice. He could have commanded one of tho Secretaryships of State; but not for the first time has he shown an utterly unselfish de? sire to postpone all personal considerations and to help his leader in any fashion or in any way, either by standing out, a friendly looker-on, or by taking a post which, while comparatively humble, will give him his full share of Cabinet responsibility. All things considered, tho Chancellorship of the Exchequer is, perhaps, the bett posi? tion into which Mr. Lowe could have been put. Not to put it too finely, "he has a "temper of his own." In a department where he would have exercised direct rule ever permanent officials and been able practi? cally to oarry out his own, extremely con? crete ideas on some questions, his special qualities-those faults of his that "lean to "virtue's side," and those faults of his that don't-would have brought him into con? stant collision with less acute intellects, and with men not always accustomed to obey. But the Chancellor of the Exohequer, wielding an immense power in a small office, has a wide criticising control over al. tae departments of the State, and we are quite euro that Mr. Lowe will bc a fear? less financial critic. The Telegraph hopes Mr. Gladstone will observe that the Cabi? net already contains au ample measure of the "aristocratic" element. The country will not be satisfied unless the Ministry be further reinforced by the addition of more than one distinguished commoner. A Pat on the Bach. Charleston is stretching out her iron arms to Vicksburg, New Orleans, Memphis, Cincinnati and Mobile; wo are urging the complet ion of the Savannah and Charleston Railroad, which will open direct communi? cation by the seaboard route from Portland, Maine, to New Orleans; consolidations aro contemplated which will enable us to draw to our waters thc trado of the neighboring States. In fine, we are at work, and arc working with a will. Thc North is begin? ning to take notice once more of this giant baby South, and the sober Financial Bulle? tin, of New York, pats us on tho back in this fashion: "The mest encouraging and satisfactory ac? counts of the present and prospective condition of the Southern States aro those which reter to the growing interest manifosted in increas? ing and extending tho railroad facilities of that section. AU this is very gratifying. If Con? gress will devote its attention to legislation baaed on tho necessities of tho poople, rather than thc demands of party, tho progress of the South in all forms of material improvement will bo certain and rapid. Wo arc deeply inter osted in the trado of the South. It was former? ly a source of large profit to tho North, and can be male so in tho future. They havo valuable products to sell, aud in return require tho man? ufactured articles of tho Northern States. In ?xteading and enlarging tho facilities for trans? portation the peoplo of the South ara doing that which will give the country a fresh impe-' :ti3 iu her progress towards greater wealth and power." It c views. LHE HOUSE INBALFOOE-STEEET. A Novel. By Charles Dimitry. Now York : George Wil? cox. Charl: sion : John Russell. We should like to be ebie to speak favor xbly of n, novel by a Southern author, but unfortunately "Tho House in Balfour "6treet" lacks the first essential of a suc :essful story-it is very uninteresting. Add to this, that the development of the plot is jbscure, the springs of action being diffi? cult to discern, and, for the most part, fail? ing to account sufficiently for their conse? quences; and it will be seen that Mr. Dim? itry's appearance as a novellist is not a promising one. For tho rest, the book is quite unobjectionable au 1 can do no possible harm to UH readers-which, in these days, is saying something. MADA? E DE BEAUPRE. By Mrs. C. Jenkin, Au? thor <i "Who Breaks, Pays," &C. New York : Leypoldt & Hj?t. Charlo'toa : John Russo1!. This is another of those charming stories of modern French society which Mrs. Jen? kin tells so wei!. "Madame de Beaupre" ts worthy of its predecessors, and is marked by the same incisive and epigrammatic atyle, the same sprightly dialogue and vivid characterization, which distinguished them. The book, which is uniform with the series of Mrs. Jankin's novels now in procees of publ cation by Messrs. Leypoldt & Holt, is very prettily gotten up, and both inside and out, is one of the most attractive vol? umes we have lately seen. TOBACCO AND ALCOHOL. I. It Docs Pay to Smoke. IL The Coming Man will Drink Wme. By John Fiske, M. A. L. L. B. New York : Leypoldt A Holt. Charleston : John Bussell. This little pamphlet is'an elaboration of what the author tells us was originally in? tended as a review of Mr. Patton's book upon "Smokingand Drinking,"and at' -\ined its present size and form by reason of his desire thoroughly to expose and completely to refute the numerous fallacies set forth by that new convert to teetotalism. The serious portions of the essay are marked by thought and discrimination, andar?, in our judgment, founded upon sound physiologi? cal bases. Without pretension to thc dig? nity of a scientific treatise, the book pre? sents an intelligible summary upon the vexed question of which it treats, and is worth an attentive perusal by all interested in a subject of so large popular importance. THE ENGLISH PAPERS assert that thc peo? ple of India have not adequately taken ad? vantage of the opportunities afforded them by the civil war in the United States to acquire pre-eminence in the cultivation of cotton. To improve the quality of cotton, to increase tho production, to open or re? move all existing obstacles, to provide bet? ter reads and ample means of irrigation, and, in short, to make diligent use of all the appliances which exist, in order to retain and increase so valuable a trade, it is stated, should be an object of oenstant solicitude. The new Governor-General of India, it is believed, will exert himself in the promotion of the cotton interests in that country. THE NEW YORK TBIBUNE speaks of the sale of the water-power at Columbia, to Senator Sprague for two hundred dollars, and says that great as this sacrifice must be "to the immediate owners," it will be a still ?greater gain to the State. The wa? ter-power which w.s sold was the property of the State, it being wisely given away lo secure the erection of. mills and factories for the benefit of all South Carolina. We ail know now that men live not by cotton alone; therefore it is that we arc determin? ed to have, ere long, as many ootton facto? ries as we have thousands of bales of the raw material. A BILL OF INJUNCTION has been granted against the Southwestern Railroad Company and the Central Railroad Company, of Geor? gia, forbidding their purchase of the stock of the Albany and Gulf Railroad recently transferred to them by the City of Savannah, and restraining them from all attempts to control thereby the operation of the Albany and Gulf Railroad and the commercial and business interests of Central, Southern und Western Georgia. The Savannah Newe says, mournfully, that "it is never wise to "count chickens until they are hatched." THE CHARLESTON DELEGATION in the Gen? eral Assembly should take up and push for? ward the bill for the relief of the Savannah and Charleston Railroad. Not one dollar is asked from the State, direct'.y or indi? rectly, beyond the sum for which she is liable by her endorsement on the bonds of the company, and the company will be ena? bled to complete the road to Savannah surely and speedily. This is a mest im? portant matter for Charleston and the whole State. _^Jt^ WANTED, A LOAN 0 F $5U00 OK $(?000 tor ono or two years, on some of the best located properly in tbe city.
