WASHINGTON, February 20.-France no longer demands passports from American travellers or residents, but Mr. Seward advisos natural? ized citizens to continue to carry them. It seems that tho officials at tho Capitol do not regard the Presidents signature as neces? sary to a joint resolution proposing amend? ments to the constitution. Tbo bill removing officers of Mississippi, Yuginia and Texas, who cannot tako the oath, has become a law without the President's sig? nature. The President has nominated George W.

LONDON, February 20.-The papers comment on the rejection of tho Alabami troaty. The Standard (Conservative) regrets tho rejeotion, and says that advances for a new treaty must come from the United States. England is now unfettered from past concessions and here? after will only treat on terms of absolute equal? ity. The Time3 says the present treaty testi? fied England's amity. Its failure doss not en? danger the peaceful relations of the two coun? tries, but rather serves aa a warning' for a new convention.

A Boston hotel-z.ecper, wishing to famish his hotel with the very best of furniture at tho cheapest possible cost, went to Pans a short time since, rented a house, bought about sixty thousand dollars' worth of furniture, and took it :nto tho houso. A portion of the furniture, sue!) as bedd.ng, towels, caroo ts, Sw., wcro mado up in tho house by workmen employed for tbe -purpose. An officer cf tho customs in Now York City, who happened to bu in Paris at that time, was invited by the hotel proprietor to become his soest, to which he consented, thoreby saving all expenses of board, lodging, ?ic.

Greenville to be n City-Tbc Question of Taxation-The University Bill-An Im? portant Amendment-Final Passage of thc Charleston Election Bill in the House--The Tot J In Detail, &c. [FROM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT. ] COLUMBU, S. C., February 19_THE SENATE, today,was chiefly occupied in the second read" inc: and discussion of the bill to (arther amend thc acts incorporating tho University of South Carolina, and the bill to alter and amend the charter of the Town of Greenville. The latter makes Greenville a city, with all the corporate powers and privileges of cities, provides tor the election of Mayor and Aldermen, their powers and duties, including the levying of city taxes, &c. The subject of city taxation ehc ited quite a long and interesting discussion between Senator Corbin, of Charleston, Sen? ator Allen, of Greenville, Senator Wright, cf Beaufort, and Senator Cain, of Charleston. The main point raised was whether city author? ities, under the new constitution of thc State, can legally levy special or specific taxes, or whe? ther they aro not restricto.' to taxing property according lo its actual value. Senator Corbin held that taxation according to the constitution was to be uutform throughout thc State, both ?in city anti State taxition, and all property, real or personal, taxed according to its actual value. Senators Allen and Wright argued that it w*aB a well known and almost universal rule in every State in tho United States for cities to levy special or specific taxes, and that without such taxation they could not carry ou city government. The tax for tavern licenses, bil? liard saloons, drays, curiases, &c, was tho principal support ot many cities. Seuator Corbin was of tho opinion, however, that thc sooner all taxation was made to con? form to the uniform system proscribed in tho constitution, taxinar every article according to its actual valuation, tho better for the indus? tria] interests of ali classes of poople, whether in city, town or village. A question, ho ?aid, had been raised by tho City Council of Charles? ton as to theil" powers, under the constitution, to levy special or speci?c taxes, and this was the reason why the memorial now before tho General Assembly askiu : tho Legislature to val?dalo their tax ordinanco bad bee i present? ed. Senator Corbin thought tho poor drayman who invested his little capital in a horse and dray should only be taxed on the actual value of that horse and dray, and on tho profits aris? ing from.his iucomc. Senators Allen and Cain, on the other hand, cont aded that drays, carriages, &c, should pay a tax in proportion to their wear and tear of the streets, &c, compared with other pro? perty. Tito following substitute of Senator Wright for section 9 was adopted: SECTION 9. That tho Mayor and Aldermen of the City of Greenvdle are heroby authorized and empowered to make such ordinances as they may deem expedient Ju relation to licens? ing persons who are or may be engaged in und carrying on any business within their corpo nte'litnits: Provided, That no ordinance shall be made inconsistent with tho Constitution of lins State and laws of tbe laud. After discussiou between Messrs. Corbin, Wright and Allon, thc question was taken on agreeing to the substitute ofibred by the sen i I tor from Beaufort, and decided in the affirma? tive. Mr. Corbin desirad to bo recorded on the journal, ou the question of agreeing to the sub? stitute of the sen.itor from Beaufort, as voting 'n the negative. Tho following action was also adopted: SECTION 8 Tnat the said Miyor and Alder? men of Baid city, m addition to all such fines and penalties as may br incurred or rojovored, rad all licenses tor taverns, for sales at auction, public a bow*, and for wholesale and re tai t d .al? era in liquors within said city, all of which tbe said Mayor and Aldermen, or a majority of them, sholl have a right to grant in meir dis? cretion, shall annually, within ten days after entering on the duties of their office, appoint three fit and proper persons as assessors, who. after taking the following oath, in addition to the oath proscribed io tho constitution, to bo I administered by the Mayor or any o.ie of tho I Aldermen, to wit: 'T, A B, do swear (or af? firm, as tho caso may bc), that 1 will weil and truly, to th J best of my judgment and know? ledge, fairy and impartially assess ?ind value the taxa Lie propel ty within the City of Green? ville, and ma kc returns, as well of such proper? ty as, also, tho several proprietors and occu? pants thereof, to the Max or and Aldeimen of tho City ot Greenville, so uolp mo God," shall proceed to as.se- s and value all the taxable property with tho City of Creou ville in the maimer provided by au act entitled " An act providing for thc assessment and taxation of property, " ratified trio liftrontii day of September, A.

Senator Nash opposed the amendment, and said it w uld never bo Agreed to by the House of l{cprc60iitative?. Should the House refuse to concnr, the Senato will doubtless rocode ra? ther (ban delay the pa^sago of tho bill, so necessary for tho maintenance of the institu? tion.

BABXWELL, February 18.-It appears to me, with all deference, that ina recent editorial, omooeat other things, prophesying a largo crop ol cotton f jr tho present year, you aro possibly wrong in fact and have indavcrlently done an injury to the planter. The belief of a largo crop in 1860, entertained at purchasing centres, wi 1 certainly depress the price of tho portion of tho crop of 18J8 remain? ing unsold. The portion of that crop now on hand in our ports is chiefly held on account of tho producer, and ie a pretty correct exponent of his net profits on tho transactions of tho past year. He needs all he can get for it to bring him evon with tho losses of thc two pre? vious years. It is true fertilizers and improved imple? ments are being largely introduced upon tho plantations. Will they largely increase the crop of 1809 ? I think not. Noither fertilizers or implements can pick cotton; this must bo done with tho fingers of tho laborer; and it is only the amount picked, whatever may be made, that will l>e sent to market. Now, three crops with frc a negro laborers havo settlod the fact that, while in some kinds of labor tho oldslavo task may bo readily obtained and passably done, there arc others in which no amount of persuasion or pay can koop them steadily ap to tho old standard. And this very thing of cotton pic' ing is one. lam persuaded that tho general oxperionco of the country is, that from a half to three-fifths of the amount of cotton picked during a season in former timos, is all that you eau uow safely calcu.'ato upon from an average gnne. Experience has also chown au increasing indisposition, on tho part of tho freo negro, to put bia women in the field as n gular contract laborers. Necessity-tbo broad and meat issue-alone will m ike bim d ? it; and willi tho first gleam of prosperity ho withdraws thom. This year ho ts, und in every Bjcccediug prosp?rons year he will b'.-. able lo iudulgO his leeling itt this matter. Ho his not, how ever, the same objection to his women engaging in casu il day-labor; : .nd in thc dot ton picking season day wages promptly paid in c.'.sti nave bor-toforobrought them freely into the field, thuugh after they are lhere ibo amount inched by them per hand bears tho acme relative proportion to thc slave standard as that of the contract laborers. It is iu view of tlicso two facts that planters are taking so freely ol' fertilizers, and looking so anxiously for improved implements. They havo boon compelled to indulce the laborer's views as to hts women; and they seek, with di? minished force, to mako a crop by improved cultivation, which all the negroes on th? plan? tation may be able to gather-not exceeding three-fifths of what tho samo number ot hands would formerly havo picked. I am strongly impressed with thc idea that the number nf pounds of cotton made in thc South will not vary materially froui the crops of tho lust two years, until immigration puts more laborers in tho cotton field. Nor do I j see anything to i egret in the fact. Wo do not produce cot i on with philanthropic considera? tions of the consumer's purse. Thc present short crop, in the practical monopoly that we enjoy, QOtwitbstaudi ig all that has be?ii done ? and BiiJ to the contrary, nels us nearly as 1 much as the largest of slave timos; aud 1 the pinch is upon those who, by bringing about the chauge Ul our ?abor, put up tho price, i With s-cli labor us wo haw, and until we . eau get more, may wo not, on diminish "d ' areas and with improved culturo, make all ihe i cutten lhat our "foltow-citiaens" and their families eau conveniently pick with the imple? ments God gave them; and if guano and patent ploughs make the crop large enough to annoy , them ia the handling, wc can duccl a portion of our attenlion to tho cereals aud grasses 1 which machines will harvest.

The story applied also to W. W.

"Thc people of Tennessee can now breathe easier. -Tom Corwin, tho celebrated Ohio lawyer and politician, was notorious for impartially borrowing money from every one of his Monds ar.d seldom paying them.

Will you be Lind oaotigh to lend mo tho amount?" Tho Judge, foreseeing tho prob? able rosult of making tho loan icq nested, ad dressedbia reply to thc elerk: "You may romit that fine, Mr. Clerk. Tho Stato of Ohio can better afford to lose thirty dollars than I can." -Bromslaus Szwavc, ono of tbe most able and popular of tho leaders of the Polish nation? al movement of 1S61-2, disappeared mystcri" ouslya few months aftor the insurrection broke out.

He was sentenced early in 1S03 to Siooria, but it now appears that for the last five years ho Las been chained to a wall in one of tboso fatal casemates, lying be? low tho level of tho river Neva at Cronstadt, where so many political prisoners have died a miserable death. Tho?e who have seen him there, and who knew bira at Wara iw, when he was a handsome, spirited young man, Kay that it is now quite" impossible to recognizo him. Ho is a cripple, prematurely old, utterly broken dowu by diaoaso and suffering, and without a spark of his old energy left. -An event of a somewhat extraordinary charactor occrrred on Saturday at tho Jewish Synagogue, in Chicago. There, in tho pres? ence of an immense congregation, Miss Mary Gilmore, who has been brought up in tho Catholic faith, openly renouueed Christianity, and was.rcccived into Judaism. She is describ? ed as an intelligent and good-looking young lady, of twenty-two years, and on this occasion was dressed in a neat-fitting white tarlotan dress, and a "Grecian Bend" hat. Tho cjro mony was conducted by tho Rabbi, the Rev. Dr. Messing. In response to tho inquiry "Whether her adoption of Judaism was tho re? sult of conviction in its truths, and uninflu? enced by extraneous considerations?" she an? swered promptly and emphatically "Yes!" A fow other interrogatories followed, when sho was declared in communion with tho God of Isr iel and His people. In accordance wjjji tho custom on such occasions, tho convert chose a now name, and transformed herself from "Mary" iuto "Leah." Fojlowiug tho cc ?niony was her marriage to Mr. Bernard Bcrlian, a merchant of New York. -Aaron Jonos, the pugilist, who diol at Leavenworth, Indiana, on Tuesday last, will be remembered by Chailcstonians as tho burly orderly of General Beauregard.

' A call has been issued for a meeting of tho people of Greenville District on the first Mon? day in March, for the purpose of considering the subject of tho adjustment of old debts, and, it possible, agreeing upon somo general basis of settlement between creditors and debtors. The call says : '-The importance ol settling the indebtedness of the peoplo of the district, without tho sacrifice of all that war has left them, and putting them in a position to commence anew a career prosperity, and at the same lime doing justice, as far as pos? sible, to creditors, needs no argument to com? mend it to the good sense, humanity and pa? triotism of all. Probably no plan can beaereed upon that will meet all cases; and all tuat is proposed, is to agree upon some general basis for the compromise and settlement of old deb's, to meet, as far as possible, the depress? ed and ruined condition of the country.

Havener, having taught school in Atlanta, Georgia, last year, has returned to Barnwell, and reopened his school at Boiling Springs. The Journal, speaking of the Barnwell Rail? road, says : "Tho completion of tho railroad from Barnwell to Blackwell will greatly advance the prosperity of tao county. Too much work has already been done on the road to allow the entorpnse'to be abandoned. While tho road is a short ono, only eight miles, still it could be ma <c a valuable feeder to tho Sonth Carolina Railroad. Much of the cotton which finds its may to Savannah by the river route would take tho new routo to Charleston. This road will become very important it thc Port Royal Rail? road is completed, as it is hoped, during the present year. That road can then be tapped at a point convenient to Barnwell, which will but increase the freight and travel over tho South Carolina Railroad." Lancaster.

About tight droves of mules and horses have passed through this place during tho past turee weeks. Prices rango very high. Planta? tions and farms aro now pretty well stocked, and plautcrs aro operating with a will. Tho county, upon the whole, is prospering finely, lhose who havo heretofore operated ou bor? rowed oapttal are getting able "to chow their own tobacco." Mr. William Bowers, a residont of Pleasant Hill, in this county, mysteriously disappeared on tho night of the second instant. He was in attendance on court as a juryman, aud had boen drinking to excess the two days previous. He was seen here at ten o'clock Tuesday night, and told several persona he intended to go home that night, and endoavored to hire a horse, but failed. Thc creeks which oirolo our town wero impassable, and somo believe that lie lost his life m attempting to cross them, while others enteitain fears that he has been foully dealt witb, and his body secret y dis? posed of. Strict search has been mado for one or two miles around town, and a portion of the ereoks fished, but as yet not the least traces bave been discovered; Mr. Bowers was a young man about twenty-four years old, red hair and whiskors and blue eyes. Ho leaves a wife and ono child. A HOUSE IN BATTLE.-Kinglake, in his "His? tory ut the Crimean Iuvas on," gives the follow? ing" graphic description of a horse iu battle : "The extent to which a c'uargorcau apprehend thc perils of a battle Held may bo easily under? rated by one who confines bis observation to horses still carrying their riders; for as long as a troop horse in action feels the weight and hand of a master, his deep trust in man keeps him seemingly free from great terror, and ho goes through tho fight, unless wounded, as though it were a hold day at home; but the moment that death or a disabling wound de? prives bim of his rider, bo seems all at onco to loam what a battle is-to perceive its real dangers with the clearness of a human being, and to be agouiz td with horror of tho fate he may incur for want ot a band to guido him. careless of tho mero thunder of guns, he shows plainly enough that he more qr loss knows the dread nccent that isusod by missiles of war while culling their way through tho au, for as olteu as these sounds disclo-e to him thu near passage of a bullet or rouud shot he shrinks and cringes. His eyeballs protrude. Wild with fright, ho still does not commonly gallop homo into camp. His instinct, scums rather lo tell h.m that what safety, if any, there is lor lum, must bo found iu tho ranks; and he rushes at tho first squadron ho eau lind, urging piteously, yet with violence, that hu too by light ia a troop horso-that he too is \nliiug to charge, hue nut to be luft behind thai he must and ho will 'fall in."'
