SERVICES AND PUBLIC LIFE OF MAJOR-GENERAL JOHN SULLIVAN OF THE A MER? MAN REVOLUTIONARY ?BMY. By Tliomas C. Amory. Wiggin &, Lunt: Boston. Mr. Bancroft has bccomo thc standard his? torian of America,, perhaps not so much by inherent merit-although it must bs admitted that his merits are not slight-as by the de? fault of authors of firsc.-n.te abilities. Tho evonts of thc Revolution have been sufficiently illus? trated by such writers as Botta, Ramsay, and other--; and in the field of American biography there havo been workers sufficient in number and in talent; but ot tho entire comprehensive range of our history, from tho first discovery of the continout to the present, time, there has not been, as yet, any undertaking which caa comp re in pretension, or even in real merit, to that of Mr. Bancroft. The time may come when the attention of some fatal e generation having beeu fixed with that greater degree of curiosity upon the past, which the very re? moteness in time of tho events tends to create, some historian of America may arise, to whom Mr. Bancroft will bo what Rapin, or perhaps i e.-s than Rapin, is to Hume. In the mean? time, he stalls solo master of a theme already splendid with incident and philosophy, and cloy hy day becoming rapidly enriched, on tho scalo of a national increase, such as the world has never before witnessed. Perhaps ono of the worst effects of this par? amount authority of a singlo writer on a his? torical subject, is the false cstimato of indi j viduals which his wilful misrepresentations, or even his honost mistakes, will inevitably transmit to posterity. Thc great mass of men have neither thc means nor tho inclination to sift thc truth with regard to those whoso ac? tions no longer affect thom with a personal in t jn-st; and the prevading opinion of a people will ai way3 bo io general accord moo with tho views and assertions ol' tho ruling historian. Thc errors of Mr. ?ancroft, nnd his frequent deliberate injustice, bare Often boen combatted with regard to tho lives and services of emi? nent men in our past history; and in no in? stance with which wo aro acquainted, with moro careful research and groater success than in the book before ns. Especially is this, true with regard to his military reputation, which is tho point particularly at issue in the discus? sion. Wo canDot but think that Mr. Amory has erred in announcing himself, with all tho pomp of sounding prcfaco, and with frequent iteration through all his pagos, as tho defen? der of Genoral Sullivan. Thc object of a wri? ter of biography is always hindered by thc declaration of a partisan purpose; for mon know that love influences thc reason as much as hatred, and receivo, with just as m any grains of allowanco, that which is ostensibly written to exalt a character, as that which is ostensibly written to traduce him. Mr. Ban? croft also enjoys au advantage m this, that he undoubtedly did not write his history ia ord er to dolract from the fame of Goneral Sullivan, wbilo Mr. Amory, from his own continually ob? truded declaration, did coinpojo his book iu order to defend his reputation. This conside? ration, however, refers merely to the eifjct upon tbo prejudices-which no writer is wise to disregard-and it has nothing to do with tho facts and proofs, as stated, which alone, the mind of ono anxious to discover tho truth would regard, and by which alone be influenced. Wo morely mean to say that tho same indonti cal facts and inferences, whoa irrayed npou tho pages of a volume, would produce a oor taiu offset upon the minds of readers ia gon? eral with a creator certainty, when unattended by tho positivo declaration that it was intend? ed lo be produced. Ia tho performance o' Mr. Amory wo recog nizo many merits, and but ono conspicuous fault. It is in places uaduly prolix. Uulortu natoly, too, this prolixity oxpoeially abounds in the paucgyrical portions of tho book-thoso very portions iu which a proper regard for his objoct should have prompted Mr. Amory to bo concise. Tao mind, nuder tho most favorable circumstances, receives with a certain caution and suspicion the praises of anoth?r, and it dangerously magnifies the diffi;ultios of con? viction to weary the reader with Iboir too frc quont repet?tiun, or too long continuance. Wo do not desire, however, to appear hypercriti? cal, and hasten to say that tho style of compo? sition is grace.u! and vigorous, and tho narra? tive interesting, with a clear und succinct utatemont of facts. Tho research, which tito l-erforoianco indicates, is highly coinnvjiidablo, and, as its fruit, presents to tho reader both a full account of thc lifo and actions ot Goneral Sullivan, if not Boswolliau in its minuteness, yet aiiflicieutly Boswellian to nuke up a first class biography, aud also a fuithful and t xcccd ingly instructive piclurc of tho timos in which , General Sullivan lived. Decidedly tho most instructivo and entertaining portion of tho 1 book is the narrative from tho ti :io when Suili- '< vin retired from the army, after the Indian campaign iu 1799, to tho date of hu death. Willi a full cjlloct:ou of eontoinporaue- ; ous documente, judiciously selected, and i with just aud sensible commcul, a com- - pluto picture of those troubled times aubso- j quent to the revolution, when ovory thing was ( now and nothing dotei mined, is brought to our ' view.

F1?03I TUE STATE CAPITAL. The Charlotte Mails-Thc Congaree Bridge-The State Un i vt-rs i ty-The Ro? per Hospital-The Loan BUL [FBOM ODE OWN CORBESPONDENT.] COLUMBIA, February 3.-The recent change in the schedule of the Charlotte and South Ca? rolina Railroad will, even if it is not so design? ed, work serious injury to tho trade of Charles? ton. Both passengers and the mailB from your city are compelled by tho change to lie over in Columbia from four o'clock in the afternoon to twelve o'clock the next day. The change, however, in no way affects the communication with Augusta. They still connect with tho 6 A. M. tra:n going to Charleston and Augusta, but fail to connect with tho four o'clock train as usual from Charleston. The Governor sent to the Setutte to-day the following message, accompanied by numerous? ly signed petitions of tho citizens of Columbia and Lexington : STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA, ) EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, \ COLUMBIA, February 3,1869. j To the Honorable the President of the Senate: SIR-Tho enclosed memorials pf citizens of Columbia, and ol the County of Lexington, for the erection of a free bridge across the Con garec River, opposite Columbia, aro respect? fully transmitted to your honorable body, with a recommendation that they may bo favorably considored. The importance of the means of safe and speedy communication between this city and tho biirrounding country cannot be over estimated, and it is highly desirable that they should bu provided at as early a date as practicable. The question as to whether tho expenses connected with the construction of a free bridge across the Congaree should ba dofrayed by tho Stato or tho counties moro especially heneflttoa by tho improvement, is a matter ap? propriately for your consideration. It may also be a question whether stops should not bo taken to compel the corporators of tho old bridge to comply with the requircmeuts of their charter, or to surrender the privileges couferred therein. Very respectfully, ROBisRT K. SCOTT, Governor. The message was referred lo the Committco on Hoads, Ac.

Tho committee fool that it would be both nnvriso and injudicious for the General Assem? bly, in view of the present financial condition of tho State, to make any appropriation for the support of institutions the oxercise cf whoso functions is not urgently and impera? tively demandod. The above reasons have been sufficient to induce the committee to report unfavorably upon the p tition, confidently behoving that the House will concur in tho opinion that the appropriation sought to be obtained should be withheld. Thc Speaker laid<kefore the House a message from the Governor, enclosing a memorial of citizens of Charleston, against thc passage of a bill to confirm and declaro valid the recent election for Mayor and Aldermen of tho City of Charleston. On motion of G. Lee, the memorial wad received as information, and referred to the Committee on Privileg andElections and the Judiciary Committee jointly, with instructions toprint. Fcriter introduced the following concurrent resolution : Resolved, by tho House ot Representatives, tho tenate concurring, That a commission of throe members of the House and-mem? bers of tho Senate bo appointed to consider and r .-port upon the present railroad system of this State, aud they aro hereby authorized to request the attendance in this city of tho pres? idents of the difieren t railroad companies of this State or en tenn? this Stale to deviso a uniform schedule of rates of freight and connections throughout tho State, and to recommend what railroad companies, by their management and importance, are worthy of aid by this State. Mr. Tomlinaon moved to reter tho resolution to tho Committeo on Riilroids. Agreed to by a vote, on division, of yeas 39, nays 13. A bill to authorize a loan for the relief of the treasury was read tho first time. Thia bill is intended simply as a precaution? ary measure to furnish collaterals to supply any defioit in the State Treasury, if any should occur on any cause during tho fiscal year. As yet tho old public debt of the State has not been incieased, and it is expected that vory little, if auy, addition will have to be made. Tho hill to re-enact certain acts lending tho narnu and credit of tho Stato to tho Urecnvillo and Columbia Railroad Company received its third reading and passed. AFFAIRS IN TME STATE. ridgefield. Tho Advertiser thus chronicles an outrage already noticed in THE NEWS: "Near Granit? ville, OP.

Saxe, that the reason Thomson wrote so charmingly about the seasons was because he d.d it at "10 A. MM" while lying in bed; but we-freely ad? mit that the following facts, as told by the Sat? urday Review, meet our cordial s ;pport, and we are fully convinced of their correctness, Franklin "to tho contrary notwithstanding :" Of course to rise early is a virtue of the highest quality, if yon want to catch the first railway tram, or if you want to get through a certain quantity of special work or correspond? ence before beginning the routine of busi? ness of the day. But who does not know a creature of the ascetic sort, who "will tell yon at nine o'clock, with in vincible pharisaism that he has been np ever since six, bas had his breakfast ever BO lon? ago, and that he eanoot endure to he in bed after sunrise ? You ask bim what be has been doing with the three hours which bis heroic fortitude has thus given him. The chmoes are that he has been doing nothing, except contemplating, in Bran mime fashion, the beauties of his own perfec? tion and comparing them with the miserable weakness o? mou who he abed until seven or eight o'clock, Decaose they know that thero is still hours enough in the sohd day to use up all their energies. On the whole, perhaps, amau might as well be comfortably recruiting him? self in bed as stalking hither and thither over tho house, round tho garden, into tho stable, thinking all the time how good and great a being he is because he goes in for hair shir's. Eating and drinking give men of this temper auother Une chance, of which they never re? fuse to avail themselves, of donning the hair shirts and tho laurel wreath which they sup pi so to belong to it. DARKLES LS THE GALLERIES OF CONGRESS_ Don Piatt writes to the Cincinnati Commercial: I was greatly amused at what one of the door? keepers of tho gallery said to me not long since. I remarked to him that theoolored people were not so fond of .it tending the debates of Con? gress as thoy weis formerly. "The weather is too Ano," he responded, sen? tentiously. "Why, what has the weather to do with it ?" I asked." "Everything. When it ia cold and uncom? fortable and no warm sido of a wall to bo had, tboy flock here, for tboy have comfortable seats and a warm place without paying for it. You como here some bitter, cold, inclement day, and see how crowdod the galianos will be with our colored friends. They will Bit aud sleep and snore here all day, like black snakes in the sun of spring." Poor creatures. I am gl d the galleries can be mado so useful-lodgings for improvident negroes. H OKS! HOES!
