Whew ! -The remains of John Willies Booth were transferred Tuesday from the pine box in which they bad beon buried, to a splendid me? tallic coffin. It was found that tho flesh had all disappeared, leaving naught but a mass of blackened bones. Upon one foot was an old anny shoe, and np >n the other a loot cot open upon the top. This covered the left toot, the leg having been bretton in his leap from tho . stage-box of the theatre, after he bad assassi? nated President Lincoln. The remainder of his dress consisted of a rough brown coat, black pants and vest, all of which were rotten and docayed. The hair all remained, and the silken curls of glossy black reminded one of the han deo mo face which people once so muoh admired, bnt the intelligent 1 ?ok was gone. During the afternoon hnndreds of people visit? ed tbe piac?, and some were allowed to view the remains.. Afr er a short time it was found that tbe curious crowds had cut the blankets almost to pieces to get souvenirs. On tho ar? rival of Mrs. Booth and her sons Edwin Booth and Junios Biutus Booth, the body will be secretly interred-, m the presence of the family, at Baltimore Cemetery, boside tho remains of I junina Brutus Booth, the sonior. -A Washington tolcgram of tbe 17th inst., | tb the New York Tribune says: "A special meet? ing of the Se.iatj Foreign Affairs Committee having been called to-day, tor tho purpose of taking final action on tbe Alabama treaty, every member was present. Senator Sumner opened a discussion o i Ibo subject, in which he declared bis unqualified opposition to tho letter and spirit of tito document, and showed conclusively that by its ratificatioa our pov ernment wou'd sun ender every important prin? ciple wbic i it had laid uuwu as a basis of settle? ment of the pondi, g questions at issue. Sena? tors Morton. Patterson. Cameron, Fo senden and Harlan uiatntaiued tho samo views, and when the quest io J WJS ujit by thc chairman, Mr Sumner, aa to wi ut report should be made on tho subject thtj unanimously instructed him to make a . advorsc report ut the uext ex? ecutive session. When it is called up in the Senate it will lead io considerable debate, as it is understood there aro several sena'.ora on the Republican as well as ou the Democratic side, who will slr. nuousJy urge its ratification. But its friends .-ay it is impossible to gota two-thirds vote lu thc face ot the unanimous report of ihc committoe against it.

The Treasury building is solid, roomy, well ventilated, p'easantly warm? ed, full of broad haUs and corridors, provided with a commidious stairway, id admirably adapted for the purpose. Ou the third and fourth floors will be located thc rei irine; and reception rooms fir the general public, and ou the second flo jr two elegant suites of parlors for the acoouam jdation of thc President and Vice-Presiduut eieot. Tho splendid cash room, to be used to- dancing, is lartror than any of the others and tho ceiling is much higber, the height of tho room including the combined height of the first and second stones. Tho waite sra faced with variegated marbles, tho general finish being co.npusod of two orders ot architecture, thc Conminar and composite, separated oa a lino with the .second floor by a bronze balcon v. Each order is mounted on a stylobaio uf variegated marbles. Tho facing of tho walls is of y. llowSijuoa marble, with paucls ofBardiglio. ibo c.-iliug is laid oil in oblong and squaro p mel, of wiiito, bordered with- gilt cornices, and rho hoavy cornice of tho wall is also richly gilded. Tho room will be lighted by three- laryo and magnificent bronze chande? liers, tbe centre one oontainiu? forty-two burn ero and tho end rne3 thir?y-six barners each. makins in all one hundred and fourteen burn? ers, each bhadod by a ground-glass dobe. Tbe floor will be covered by a smooth board floor, and tbe music will be placed in thc balcony at the east end of the room. This frout of the building will be handsomely decorated and brilliantly illuminated, and the blaze of light, together with the music from four excellent bands, the fine view to be had of the dancers as they whirl past tbe broad windows, the vast assemblage of carriages in tho adjacent streets, and the general excitement, will at? tract a rauch larger crowd outside of the "build? ing than thero will be withiD. The refresh? ment and supper department will be in tho basement. A room of ample proportions is set apart fer the sui per tabies, and several small? er rooms, one for ices, confections and mild beverages for tho refreshment of tho ladies, nnd two for such refreshments as arc moro generally soucrht after by the sterner sex. " CHTRLESTOIST. MONDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY 22, 18C9. k iigiumi as a li cpui>Hf. lu the face of the questionable success which has attended the experiment of popu? lar government in America, the develop? ment of republican ideas in conservative England is advancing with giant strides. Professor Goldern Smith contributes to the last number of the North American Review a very interesting paper, discussing this subject in connection with the future soeial and political condition of Great Britain. It is not surprising that Professor Smith, who has so lately exchanged a position of honor and eminence in his native country fora similar one in America, should betray throughout his essay a marked sympathy with the progress of republican sentiment in the land he baB left. Always an advanced Lib? eral in feeling, his natural bias has doubt? less been strengthened by his removal to a country where, whatever may be the actual condition of things, the catchwords of Lib? erty and Equality are constantly upon the lips of men who have just enough learning in the science of free government to mis? quote the letter and misapply the spirit. It has evidently been a labor of love with ihc Professor to prepare this exhaustive summary 3* "the signs of thc times," as far as they relate to tho progress of Libe? ralism in Great Britain. Admitting at the outset that there can hardly be said to exist, as yet, an avowed republican party in Eng? land, and coufessing that it is probable that "even the most advanced radical would dis? claim the name of republican," he never? theless finds among bis countrymen a deal of latent republican sentiment, and detects thc traces of republican ideas und princi? ples in the history of the Empire for thc last ten or twentyyears. Strangely enough, he even Suds confirmation of these ideas in what he calls "tho overthrow of our South? ern rebellion." The English conservatives having sympathized with the "rebellion" as a movement against popular freedom, he holds' that its failure has substantially strengthened tho cause of its opponents. Professor Smith regards the present as a transition period, bounded on the one aide by "a monarchical past," and on the otber by "a dtmccratic future;" and while he handles very cautiously the necessarily sug? gested question of the fate, under such con? ditions, of the m .march j- itself, and is careful not to ooramit himself directly to tho prophe? sy of its overthrow, his words leave no doubt whatever about the direction of bis hopes and anticipations. Alluding to the saying that has become common in England, that ' the nation would not bear another George .'IV," he makes the significant prediction : "We may be perfeotly sur.; that, in the "course of nature, another George IV will come." Much of the essay is devoted to the consideration of the present and future character of the House of Lords, and be expresses the belief that it must inevitably give way ere long to a body ia the nature of an elective senate. In short, the gist of this remarkable paper consists in a thor? ough recognition of the omnipotence of what the author calls "thc court of free "opinion," and of the approaching deraoli tiou of all institutions and ordinances which will not bend to tho imperious demands of the giant of Human Thought. Professor Smith's views, though tinged with partisan prejudice, have undoubtedly great force in themselves, andar? presented with singular clearness and ingenuity. It ?3 hard, after reading his essay, to resist the conviction that our children, if not our? selves, are destined yet to behold a^rcpub lican Congress assembled in the halls where TuJor and Plantagenet once wielded u sceptre, now, ut lasr, become too weighty for the patty arms nf an effete dynasty. HAS Representative Rawen fallen from Radical graci? If not, how are we to ac? count for the fact that be is made thc sub? ject of the marked and repeated commet? dation of ?or. Brick Pomeroy? The "red "bot" editor, while walking into "tho scal? awags aud oarpci-b^ggers that represent "thc Freedmen's Bureau ia Congress," in characteristic style, as "queer looking cus? tomers, with a hesitating, uncertain air "about tin ni, no', knowing how they ought "lo be ?ak<?u, aud apologetic of being there "at all"-m ikes poimed and honorable ex seption of the member from Charleston, as "a genuine repr?sentative who, while being "fully imbued with the progressive spirit "of the age, nevertheless represents the "in'crests of all classes of his constituents." And tiny, not once only, but in several soc cjssive issues of Brick's paper. How ie this? Have the lion and the lamb lain down togeiher? Or do the loyal electors of the Second Congressional District snuff treason in ?he tainted cale ? IT IS A. pleasant indication that our Slate is, one of these days, to get something else besides kicks and curses from Congress to hear that the amendment recently proposed by SeD Jtor Roben sou to the River and H :r bor hiil, rdding an appropriation of $60,000 for the improvement of Charleston harbor, was adopted with-ut serious opposition. Wo arc not lik'dy to reap any immediate beui-iu from the appropriation, however, as the bill was subsequently recommitted to the Committee on Commerce, which is probably the last we shall hear of it during the present session. . . Feminine Telegraphy. The elastic article called by modern phi? lanthropists and strong-minded ladies "Wo? man's Sphere," is about to receive a nota? ble extension of its already rather uncer? tain limits. We aro now to have the fair creatures us telegraphists, and their noto? rious faculty for disseminating nows is to be pressed iuto the service, and invested with all the re'sourccs of modern soience. Schools of telegraphy for women have already been opened in several of the large cities of the Union, aud the movement is gaining strength every day among the "progressionists" of the North and West. Women undoubtedly possess many of the requisites for the po? sition of operator?. Their touch is deli? cate and their perceptions are acute. These latter may prove as quick in dissecting the monotonous click of the magnet as in catch ing the meaning of a glance .or the signifi? cance of a lifted eyebrow. The same fem inine patience that is now displayed in abiding the slow but sure triumph of that odious Miss Flutters in the little matter of Captain Fitz Noodle's heart, will come ad mirably into play in awaiting the last bul? letin of the rising in Cuba, or the latest fluctuations in gold or cotton. But the great consideration, we imagiue, which must enlist all the sex on the side of ibis new movement by the advocates of their "sphere," will be the vastly increased fa? cility which the situation offers for beariog and diffusing the tattle of the world, lt will be delightful for the fair operator in Charleston to prattle of the latest scandal in Chicago, or the newest fashion at Fon? tainebleau, so far in advance of the rest of man or womankind: and if there should bu one of her own sex at the other end of the line, why the fascination of tho labor would be complete. So let tho ladies try their hands at the wires by all means. Wc print to-day n letter from an expe? rienced and intelligent planter in regard to the probable extent of the next cotton crop. His views, though differing mate? rially from the generally received opinion on the subject, are evidently well consid? ered, and i he reasoning by which they are sustained is strong and practical. We com? mend the letter to the attention of our readers. Stotts. WASTRO, A SMALL. HOUSE IM TUB LOWER part of tho city ,bolow Broad-stn rt ?pr-'forred.) Rent must be moderate.
