Thoy regard it as ?. breach of good manners for any one to appei r in public when he is liable to cough or sneeze, "becauso nothing would bo easier than to euro himself at onoe by taking a drug which they call io quian wkian, and assort to bo a certain specific for a cold." -Ml. Johuson'a nomination of General Dent, General Gram a brother-in-law," to be Minister io Chili is a strange movement'. Nobody un? derstands it. Somo say he meant it as a joke others as a peaeo offeriner to General Grant others, again, aa a blow at Kilpatrick. Dent declines positively. If.il. is triumphant; and what Mr. Johnson meant is ?till a mystery. -President Johnson intends, shortly after ho goos out cf office, to make a visit to Europe. The oiler ol' a passage was lately made him by one of tho Gorman lines of steamers, and the offer waa a ccepted by Mr. Johnson. It is his purpose, immediately alter tho 4th of March, to make a brief visit to Tennessee, With the view of arr angine: his affairs, and ho will sail for Europe about the fir?t of April. -The Emperor ol tho French is said to bo more embarrassed by his private indebtedness than even previous to tho coup d'etat. Both ho and the Empr ess have been living for the past fifteen years far beyond their means, and all of Eugenie's privato property is heavily mort? gaged. She never thinks of the rainy days which may bo in store for her in tho future, -but is as extravagant as if the French exche? quer were inexhaustible, and the Imperial ay nasty not founded on sand, but sure to reign for centuries to come. -A neat specimen of the slashing style in literary oriticism is the following notice of Captain Clayton's Look on Spain from the Pall Mall Gazette: "Not worth the trouble of cut? ting the leaves. An utterly uncalled for ac coo.nt.of a tapio* railway journey right through from Havre to Valencia, with a snatoh at tho Balearic Isles, and a dash home by Barcelona and Perpignan. The mere idle scribbling of a chattering traveller on a beaten road, doing towns in tho intervals allowed for refreshment, and eking out his original matter by hashed guidebook. Occasionally vulgar, often flip? pant; generally silly, always stupid." -Louis Philippe, in 1840. by permission of tba British Government, removed tho remains of Napoleon I from St. Helena, and deposited them, on December 15th of that year, in the Hot ol des Invalides. Ott January 28th last, tbe French Senate had before it two petitions call? ing tor tho renie val of the remains ot Louis Philippe from Eugland to France. The Rrounds brought forward in ono of these petitions wore that tii? lato king bad brought tho bones of bTapolcon from St. Holena to France; but the Senate reject ed tho petitions, laying down "that the pious duty of restoring these noble ashes to their native soil belonged exclusively to the family of the illustrious dead." -Captain Duehosue commander of thc steamer Perctre in her?ate disastrous voyage, commanded in 1854 the little steamer Vesta, which collided with the ill-fated Collins steam? er Arctic off the banks of Newfoundland. Tho Vesta had a great hole' knocked io her. and . seemed destined to sink; the passengers and sailors flow to the boats, but the captain, bran? dishing an axe. declared be would fell the first man who embarked. This bold aot re-estab? lished order. The cargo and ballast were car? ried aft and brought the ship upright, again; with much tronble and patience the hqle was temporarily mended, and, thanks to extraordi? nary caro, the vessel was brought safely into the port of St. John, Newfoundland. By this time the unhappy Arctic had sunk, with three hundred people on board. Captain Dnoheihe's conduct won him the Cross of the Legion of Honor. ? -More than five thousand persons were present at the mass meeting of Irish citizens : at Cooper institute, New York, on Tuesday night. Mayor Hall presidod and made a very able and eloquent address.. Resolutions were unanimously adopted dedaring the sympathy of America with every people who ore strug? gling ter free institution a, and calling upon tho Executive and Congress "not to entertain or ratify tony treaty with England wluoh dos? net guarantee, as a oondition precedent, the Im? mediate release of our captive feliow-citizona and the amplest reparation for individual wrongs, as well ns atonement for the intuit offered to our national honor." Addresses wore then mado by Dislrlct-Attornoy Garvin, General O'Neill, Kev. Fathor McAleor, and others, after which a committee numbering Horace Greeley and Mayor Hall in its ranko was appointed to submit tho resolutions to Congress. -The St. Louis papers givo tbo particulars of a peculiarly atrooioua child murder which took place in that pity last week: It scorns th it ono Sebastian Iliipfor,^. shoemaker, had an attack of insanity, during which ho con? ceived the idea that tho devil wa*s in his dog, and Uiat by killing him ho would perform n righteous service. He accordingly Ticspatohed the canine. Awhile alter, tho shoomaker imagined tho devil was in ono of his children, a little girl eight yoare of age. Calling her to him, ho seized hor, pfaced a strap around her neck, t hrow her to tim floor, glaced his foot on ber head, and taking a knife, cut out hor heart, and swallowed the coagulated blood. He was arrested some time after committing tho deed, being found in his own boneo with the door fastened. Hupfcr made no attempt to concoal his guilt, but gavo ?h straightforward history ol' tho. affair., manifesting no regret at tho oc? currence. Ho staled that by drinking tho child's blood bo would nover want iood, mid that ho felt justified in tba courso ho had pursued. He had not tasted food since com? mitting tho foul deed, claiming that ho will want no nourishment tho remainder of his lifo Ho will probably bo sent to tho insane asylum. "CHARLESTON. SATURDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 20, 1869. -w - Small Wares. r~- - _ We aro glad to see that the State papers are impressing upon their readers the im? portance of a diversity of pursuits; not with the idea that every, man should bc "Jack of all trades and master of none;' but in order that the majority of our wanti may be supplied at home, and that we may not. neglect tho smaller ways of making money, which are often quite as profitable in proportion to tho capital employed m ?he culture of cotton itself. Tho State pa pers aro working earnestly to this end, ?inc none more earnestly than the Edgcfield Ad vertiser, which published some weeks agi an excellent article oh the manufacturo o small wares. Tho writer in tho Advertiser speaks o the good use to which rniny days mid win ter evenings are turned in tho New Englaui States. In Masstichusettp, on tho margi) of little brooks, aro miniature mills wher the farmers spend their spare time iu mak 'ngi'ny the aid of machinery, articles whic they can sell at the atoros. In one village years ago, children were required to brai a certain number of yards of straw cac day. This braid was exchanged at th stores for such things aa the families neoc ed. Thc quantity increased annually, an a hat factory was established to use up tb straw where it was braided; and thiB fat tory now gives employment to one thouean persons, most of them being women ac children. Here is an evidence of what tl ohildren may do; but there is as much at more to be done by Children of larg growth. The Advertiser says : * "Had our people tho tad to avail themseiv of their natural advantages, it would bo foul that we could compete successfully iu makii various articles which would produce a larg profit than working in the fields. Enterpris could bo built up from small beginnings. 1 stead of sending away tho hides of auima slaughtered, why not tan thom hero, and tin convert them into hart ess, shoes, and otb articles which aro in constant demand? 1 stead of sending North for brooms, bucke and woodenware, why not make them in Edg he'd District? It is estimated that sevei millions of dollars' worth of baskets and willo ware are annually imported into the Unit btates. In 1857, a poor woman stated that s' supported her family by selfing to the visito at Glenn's Spiings-, baskets of willow, ma by herself and children. Peacock's loathe neatly made into fly-brushes would comma) a high price if sent to New York. Surat wh'oh grows wild in our woods and on o roads, is in groat demand now, and would p well to gather anti ship. The wild flowers the woods furnish an abundance of food 1 the bees, and the honey produced by thc will always sell, if carried to the piopermi ket." In a like manner hundreds of artic] might be enumerated which would gi paying work. And it is very properly su gested that merohants shoulQ hunt up t commodities which their section can pi duce to advantage, anti send them to t markets whore they will command the b price. This will encourage production, giving the producer the certainty of a m ket. Let a merchant, for instance, acqua himself with the value of sumac in tbe near market, and thc cost of transportation, ? then offer to buy all that in brought to h and engage bauds to gather it, paying si prices as will leave him a fair margin profit to compensate him for his time i trouble. This would at once develops sumac trade. In the' same way tioorei other new pursuits might be made rei ucrat ive. The silk Worm, .which.}s said to be dy out in the old world, affords us another portunity. In California, tho bu?mo8f flourishing, all the eggs that can be ] duced being sold at $4 per ounce. It wc be bu?, little trouble to plaut a few hh Multicaulis s witches on each plantation, to give thc needed oare to a few woi Instead of being a tank it would be a re ation, and the business when shown it profitable might be infinitely enlari The Advertiser says : "Tho culture of silk has been considere tho Chinese for four thousand years as sec io importance to that of r oe. There, e species of worms produce four crops du tbe year. Tte value of silk goods ann) produced in Europe exoeeds 1275,000,00 which Austria produces 160 000,000 and : lfiO.000,000. Ia France, 600,000 persona employed by it, or one la eighty of the p lation; and in England 16 000,000 pound? annually imported, thus giving em. loyme the manufacturo to 40,000 poisons. ^ reared m a doss, moist atmosphere the c pillar is subject to varions diseases; but climate as pure, dfyand olastio as ?tatt Aiken, the? are far more hardy, and rei less attention. Whilst in Barops from 80 por cont, ara lost from the effects of dil food and disease, hero scarcely 5 par cent and there are hat few ants or insecte i airey the eggs. The moras multioeoHs j Isles' without any more care or attention any of oar forest trees, and the growth rapid that tho leaves eau bo unod the second I year aftor planting. Tho whole business of ' managing a cocoonory, rearing tho worm? and rooling tho silk i < so simple that it can readily bo learno'J from booka. The silk husbandry affords the most rapid of agricultural returns, being completed in six or eight weeks. Tho small amount of oapital requisito, tho great remuneration and tho light nature of the work, is suggestive of its adaptation as an em? ployment for that largo class whoso delicate health requires a mild climato, but whose moans do not enable them to lead a lifo of idle? ness, as well as for women and children who arp unable to undergo tho fatiguos incident to other labor. A cocoonery, in connection with ' a vineyard and orchard, would afford a con? stant round of employment, which would bc a source of amusement, health and profit." We belive that the small industries, which in tho North have built up villages and |?towna and mayado the same here, nre now attracting more attention than ever before. Requiring no capital, and giving? a fair profit with but trifling ritk, they are within the reach of all Glasses of our people. Tltc Mouth Carolina ltnllrouu. The SpartanbUrg Spartan speaks in high? ly complimentary terms of the recent report of tho President and Dircotors of tho South Carolina R&iirc&d, which it terms " the aorta-tho main artery of trade and travel through South Carolina-and thence to all parts of tho South, tho North and the West." We quote from its article : " Lot us soe through what difficulties tho road has had to work ita way,and what enormous losaos it has sustained. Throughout au unex? pected and protracted war-with, .the im? mense wear and tear of machinery - in spite of tho lack of suitable workmen the wearing out of iron track with no means of replacing it, nor to obtaiu new loco? motives-yet it still lives. The speed of tho train had been necessarily reduced to about ton miles per hour, as a measuro of safety to the thousands upon thousands of our br?vo soldier pnssongers within and on top of tho cars. This was a great loss to the company. But, when wo consider that in 1865 eighty-three miles ot the track was utterly ruined-bridges, cars, shops and depots liid waste by Sher? man's ruthless army, an empty treasury, save Confederate bonds and no credit, it is matter of astonishment that tho road yet lives and is doing well. Against all thcao losses and diffi? culties, ?this great institution has contended successfully-and wo aro proud and glad that Southern honor, endurance, enterprise and patriotism bavo been vindicated, and this old? est and most magnificent highway of the South stands reclus in curia before a liberal and generous public. A word more. What woula wo have done without this road during tho late war ? What would wo do without it now ?" Want*. t ?f T ANTED, TO UlltlS. A HOUSB COW.
