Nor are the parties confined to plain eating, drinking and dancing. Cards are out for a grand masquerade and fancy dress entertain? ment at the residence of one of our leading cit? izens to-morrow evening, and the shops have been ransacked for materials for costumes. It is understood tho party will be the event of the season. No guest will be admitted without a mask. At the tap of a boll during the evening the parties are to retain their positions and un? mask, preparatory for supper." -Forney has opened a land agency in con? nection with my two papers, both daily, one re sultof which is the formation of a company of capitalists, who propose to purchase a tract of three hundred thousand acres of timbered land in North Cai ol i na, grind up the bark of the trees and extract tho principle of tannin and saw up the timb.-r, and then go to farming on tho cleared up land on a most extensive scale. The Southern correspondent, who pub? lishes an account of this gigantic enterprise, states that Forney bas latterly bas?me exceed? ingly liberal in his political views touching the South, so much so as quite to put to shame those who have all along regarded themselves as conservative and modorate mon. Forney finds that radical virulence bas ceased to be profitable stock, and invests in a conservatism that will be agreeable in the region whore his future possessions de. -Tho confession of Atzerodt, made the night before his execution for the murder of President Lincoln, has just beon given to the public. He says that he consented to aid in the abduction of the President, in conjunction with Booth, Harold, Wood, Payne, Snrratt, O'loughlin and Arnold, but that he refused to take an active port ia the murder. About tho middle of March Booth heard that tho Presi? dent was to visit a carno, and lay in wait for him on Long Bridge all night, but ho did not appear. All was then quiet until the night of the 14th of April, when Booth made tho re? mark that "Lincoln ought to be killed," and pro? posed a plat for the murder. To this Atzerodt distinctly avers that he refused to consent . Ho says, however, that "Booth appointed me and Harold to kill Johnson. In going down the '.street I told Booth we could not do it. Booth said Harold had more courage and he would doit. Harold and 1 weie on Pennsylvania avenue together. I told him I would not do it, and should not KO to my room for fear he ?would disturb Mr. Johnson. Ho left me to go for Booth. This was after 9 o'clock. " Atze rodt 6&ys that ho knows nothing about Spang ler's rope, and believes him to bo innocent. His confession is very.incoheront, and only es? tablishes the fact that he took no active part in the crime for which he suffered the penalty of death. A similar statement was made by Sam? uel Arnold. -A New York Herald correspondent says it is certain that General Schofield will ro nain Secretary of War. Admiral Porter ij evident? ly fitting up his newly pur-'hasod fllty thou? sand dollar house to cntortain thoso who wish to pay cocrt to the Secretary of the Navy. Now 'hese littlo appointments from the army and navy are not to the liking of cither branch-. General George H. Thomas freely asserts that it is a very bad policy td introduce tho shoul? der Btrap element into the Cabinet, while Adr mirai Farragut, with "equal soundness, depre? cates the accepting o? the naval portfolio by Admiral Porter. It will be remember? ed that it has been one" of the most cher Jsbed rules of West Point and Annapolis - that the branches of the public service rep? resented bj their graduates ebould hold them? selves entirely aloof from political life, main? taining their, positions as the great sturdy i conservative element in the country. Farra I gut and Thomas may be rightfully considered ! in their respective branches as representing the highest embodiment cf this principle. Both of them do Dot hesitate to say that it is the 1 hist step towards the corruption of the army . and navy and the increased corruption of polil . ical Ufe. Secretary Seward, gossips this cor? respondent, is doing his uttermost to retain ! his office. He will not carry his point, how? ever, but, still determined to have a Seward "ring" element in the Cabinet should he him ; self fail, will try Mr. Evarts afterwards for a 1 Cabinet appointment, and in event of his fail ' ure will push Marshall 0. Roberts for a posi? tion. CHARLESTON. WEDNESDAY MORNING, JANUARY 27, 18W. Esparto Grass-A New Crop tor our Rice 1 ' ? .Fields. In the Esparto grass we are confident that there has been found another new , means of adding to the strength and power of the State. One more golden opportu? nity is given us of proving that, with this glorious climate and this fertile soil, we never need depend for our prosperity on cotton and rice alone. The Esparto grass of which we speak is , already the successful rival of rags, as a material for the manufacture-of paper. It i is no more difficult to grow than rice or hay; but it often brings in the market as much fes seventy dollars of our currency per ton. The production of the grass has inoreased with great rapidity, and it is now consumed to the value of about one million of dollars monthly, on thc continent and in Great Britain. New mills are being erected and fitted with machinery exclusively adapted to its use, while old mills are changing their machinery for the same purpose. There is no doubt that its general adoption is but a question of time. In the United States the Esparto grass is as yet unknown; but the high price of rags and the failure of almost all materials,-ex? cept, perhaps, maple wood,-used in their stead for the manufacture of paper, which has now become one of the leading com? mercial interests of the world, will soon induce our quick-witted Northern paper manufacturers to try this new material. As its name deno'es, the Esparto grass is of Spanish origin, being now extensively grown in Spain, Portugal and the French colonies in Africa. The questions for us to settle are, whether it will prove a profit- ! able crop, and whether it can be grown in South Carolina. The cultivation of tho Esparto is no more difficult than that of hay, and it brings three times thc price. There is, then, but littlo doubt that it will be very profitable. This is tho first point to be determined, and we are sure that in this State it could be grown with perfect success. Tho writer has not only seen the Esparto taken from the bale and put through all the processes of manufacture into fine printing and wri? ting papers, but he has also seen the grass growing, and is confident that our climate and soil will produce it at least as well as the countries in which it is now cultivated. The Esparto grass yields to the paper maker nearly as much pulp as average rags yield. It is no moro difficult than rags to work up, and in many respects, although not all, it is to be preforred to them. Thus, after two hundred years of experi? ment and the trial of a thousand different substances, just when the civilized world feels its necessity the most, a perfect sub? stitute for rags has been found, and will be used wherever a book is read and the art of writing known. It is for us to determine whether the Iberian peninsula and the North of Africa shall be allowed to monopolize all the profit of this new crop, or whether wo who are in the same latitude and enjoy a more equa? ble climate shall take advantage of our sit? uation, and make South Carolina produce thc raw material to supply tho paper mills of the United Sates, and perhaps of a part of Europe. We do not believe that the prize will escape our grasp, and we take pleasure in informing our readers that some enterpris? ing gentlemen in this city have already sent to Spain and to Algeria for the Es? parto seed. When it arrives, which it is expected to do in time for planting this sea? son, we will at once announce the fact. We have now some samples of the Esparto seed and of pulp made from it. These may be seen at the office of THE NEWS. The City Election*. We oan hardly believe that the bill of Mr. Corbin, which proposes to validate tho re? cent Municipal elections in this city, will be permitted to become a law, whatever the bitterness of personal feeling, or however sharp the crack of the party whip. The bill is as unnecessary as it is unjust, and the Legislature will surely realize, before it is too late, the serious importance of what tb ey are asked to do. If Mr. Lesesne, the Democratic candidate for Mayor, were in office, and his election were contested by tho Radical candidates, we could understand that the anger of de? feat would tempt the Legislature to over? ride the law, to dispense with the courts and judiciary, to set aside the tribunals n hich they themselves had formed, and to in 8<al the defeated candidates without giving the law a chauoe lo take its oourse. But in this case there is no such excuse. Neil ber Democrat nor Republican took his peat; the election was contested before thc Board of Aldermen as prescribed by law, and that board, consisting, with but three excep? tions, of persons holding office by military appointment, declared that there was no legal eleotion. Mr. Pillsbury and his friends commenced proceedings, as they had a per feet right to do, for the^mrpose of forcing the City Council to declare their election. A writ of mandamus isBued, and Council de? clared that at the November elections Mr. Pillsbury and the Republican candidates for ' Aldermen received (he highest number of votes, repeating, however, their previous declaration that there was no legal election. The courts were at once open to Mr. Pills? bury and the Aldermen declared to have received the highest number of voles. There was no legal difficulty in their way, and yet they leave the courts and ask the legisla? ture to take the matter into its own bands and to declare that the Republican candi? dates were duly elected, notwithstanding the irregular manner in which (he election was conducted, in spite of the frauds which are known to have been practiced, and in the teeth of a protest signed by our most responsible and trustworthy cit:70ns. We say that this conduct cannot be justi? fied either by law and precedent, or by par? ty necessity. The act under which the elections were held provides a special tri? bunal for trying contested cases, and if that is not enough, there are (he courts of the State, in which the whole case may be tried and finally determined. If the courts are corrupt, let the judges be impeached and removed. Let it not be said that the cause of the Republican candidates is so weak that they fear to have it heard before Re? publican judges, and repudiate the decision of their own tribunal-the Republican City Council. Party, whatever its obligations, should in ihis case haye nothing to do with the action of tho Legislature. The Mayor of Charleston, who will hold office until this election question is decided, is a moderate Republican. AU the Aldermen save three are Republicans, and four or five of them are men of color. Thc city has a Republi? can government now. What more does the Legislature require ? The city is tranquil; there is every prospect of an improvement in trade and general business; we can scrape along very well with the Municipal government whioh we have. All that wc ask of the Legislature is (bat the question of who were elected Mayor and Aldermen iu November last, shall bo deter? mined b/ the courts of law, and not by par? tisan legislation. We arc prepared to ac? cept the decision of the courts of the State, whatever it may bc; but we must oppose to the last the unusual and unjust course of passing an act which shall seat party candidates, by dedaring that eleotion to be legal and valid, whioh from the begin? ning was big with fraud, irregularity, and patent and manifest wrong.

NEW TOBE, November 3. 18C8. To the People of the Southern States ? WHEN THE PURE MEDICINAL RESTORATIVE, now so widely knov.n as WOLFE'S SCHIEDAM SCHNAPPS, was introduced into the world under the endorsement of four thousand leading members of the medical profession some twenty years ago, its proprietor was well aware that it could not wholly escape the penalty attached to all new and ueefn^ preparations. He, therefore, endeavored to invest i( with strongest possible safeguard against counter? feiters, and to render all attempts to pirate it diffl cult and dangerous. It was submitted to distin? guished chemists for onalysis, and pronounced by them tho 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 of experiment. A circular, requesting a trial of the preparation and a report of thc result, accompanied each specimen. Four thousand of the most omiuont medical men in the Union promptly responded. Their opinions of the article were unanimously favorable. Such a preparation, they said, had long been wanted by thc profession, as no reliance could be placed on the ordinary liquors of commerce, all of which were more or less adulterated, aud therefore -unfit for medical purposes. The peculiar excellence and strength of the oi of juniper, which formed one of the principal ingredients of the Schnapp?, together with an unalloyed character of the alcoholic ele? ment, give it. in tho estimation of the faculty, a marked superiority over every other diffusive stimu? lant as a diuroiic, tonic and restorative. These satisfactory credentials from professional men of the highest rank were published in a con? densed form, and enclosed with each bottle of the Schnapps, as one of tho guarantees of its genuine? ness. Other precautions against fraud were also adopted; a patent was obtained for the article, the label was copyrighted, a.fae simile of tho propiielor's autograph slgmture was attached to each label and cover, his name and that of the preparation were e m? bossed on thc bottles, and the corks were sealed with his private seal. No arricio hod evor been sold in this country under tho name of Schnapps prior to the introduction of Wolfe's Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps, In 1851; and tho label was deposited, as hie trade mark, In the United States District Court for the Southern District of Now York during that year. It might be supposed by persons unacquainted with the d iring character of the pirates who prey upon the reputation of honorable merchants by vend? ing deleterious trash under their name, that tho pro? tections so carefully thrown around these Schnapps would have precluded the introductions and salo of counterfeits. They seem, however, only to have stimulated tho rapacity of impostor-, The trade mark of th2 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 bpttles have been imitated, his advertisements para? phrased, his circulars copied, and worse than all, diehonorablo retailers, alter disposing of thc genuine contents of his bottles, have Ailed them up with common gin, tho most deleterious of all liquors1, and thus made his name and br mil a cover for poison. 'J ho public, thc medical profession and the sick, for whom tho Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps is pre? scribed as a remedy, aro equally intereste 1 with tho proprietor in thodctocliou and suppression of these uolari?us piactices. Tho genuine article, manuiac lured at tho establishment of tho undesigned in Schiedam, Holland, is distilled iron a barley of thc finest quality, and flavored with an OBS on ti ul extract of the berry of the Italian ju: lptr, of unequalled pu? rity. Dy a proco- ? unknown in the preparation of any other liquor, it ts treed from every ac-imonlous and corrosive element. Complaints have boen received from the leading physicians and families in tho southern States of the halo of cheap imitations of thc Schiedam Aro Uiutic Schnapps in thoso marlie's; and travellers, who are in thc habit ot using it as an antidote to the baneful influence of unwholesome river water, tes? tily that cheap gin, put up in Schiedam bottles, is frequently palmed off upon the uuwary. I he sgonts of thc undersigned have bcou requested to institute iuqulries on thc subject, and to forward to him the names of such parties as th o y may ascer? tain to bo engaged in thc atrocious system of decep? tion. lu concludion, the undersigned would say that hu has produced, from under tho baud* of the mo>t distingui'hca men of science in America, proots un answerable of the purity and medicinal excel? lence of the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps ; that he hos expended miny thousand dollars in sur? rounding it with guaranteer and safeguards, which ho designed should pro.cet tho public and himself against fraudulent imitations; that ho has shown lt to bo tho ouly liquor in tho world that can be uni? formly depended upon ai unadulterated; thit he has challenged investigation, analysts, comparison and experiment in all its forms; and from every ordeal the preparation whi h bears his namo, seal and tracie murk, has come off triumphant. Ho, therefore, feels it a dutyhe owes to Ins tellow-cit'z ns generally, to the medical profession and tho sick, to denounce and expos? the charlatans who counterfeit these evi? dence* of identity, and ho colls upon tho 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 aud che mst- of this city will provo to the reider that all goods sold l'y the under? side Jaro all that they aro ropro cntcd lo be.
