What other mattera are to be touched upon by the two pTmdp*i' military chieftains is not definitely katya** hut from all that has leaked ont con? cerning the proposed conference it is fair to infer that it will be of. more than ordinary significance." -A New York letter, of Tuesday, says: "It is & long while since anything has occasioned ao nracb: remark in newspaper circles as the scandalous developments contained in the Son, ofQlt? uiommir, concerning the way fnwhish, i tl? alleged, Mr. John RuseeU Young, manag? ing ed! tor of the Tribune, has been using the IBHMIBB of his position to promote his own pl?tt??ary interests at the expense-(as it is frrtoer alleged) of Senator Cameron, of Penn? sylvania, Judge Chase, and other promin nt politicians; also, the Tribune stockholders; alaotihe New York Associated Press. The Wfeojle. press feel that the profession has been disgraced by these doings of one of ita mem? bers, if true; and, if not true, that it has been not lees disgraced by tho publications io the Ana. It io due to Hr. Yoong to say that he ja^MEt? hate a hearing before the public, and that it WOT ld be unfair, in the meantime, to oocdemn him, unheard, however much ap pear aaoermaybe against him. And yet, it most be added, that at a meeting of the Tribune Steroiden last evening, ho was deprived of his podtlon-though, for some reason or Diner, the Tote was reconsidered, and so the gejitteman still holds on." -The project of a ship railway across the Tsahinss has been discussed of late, ?ndame Tacotal in that behalf was lately offered by Mr. Wdeon ia the Senate. The idea ia or loading ships upon a railway track by the common principle of the floating docks, and transport i og them over the Isthmus rather than through it. Tbe scheme is said to havo the endorse? ment of some of oar ablest engineers and naval constructors. Tho magnitude of the pecuniary interests involved ia presented by some tables, prepared with great care by F. W. Kelley, Esq., of New York, which show that the saving of distance hy this route from New York tc Calcutta will be 9600 miles; to Canton 10,900; tc Shanghai 11,600; to Valparaiso 8100; to Sac Erancisco, 14,000. From a table showing the trade of the United States that would pass through the canal, taken from the official retorna Of 1857, the total value ol ships and cargoes ia $193.168.987; tonnage. 1,867,485. The annual saving to the United States ia insurance on vessels and cargoes, in? terest, wear and tear of ships, time, wages ol crews and provisions for the same, be est?mala at $35,995,930. The estimated saving to the trade of the world, based on the official retorna of 1857, ts $49,530,208. To these figures Mr. IL adds the statement that the exporta of Great Britain increased in ten years 107 per cent; ol France, 130 per cent.; of the United States. 9S per cent. "If the trade of the world increases 100 per cent in ten years, the saving will be $99,060,416 per annum." The savings of a sin pie year, then, far exceed the estimate of thc cost of building the proposed Bhip railway. Mr. Hansoom, engineer arid naval constructor, and builder of our monitors, estimates the cost ol a Bhip railway at one-eighth of the probable cost of a ship canal._ CHARLESTON. o SATURDAY MORNING, MAY 1, 1869. The Futur* at the South, at Seen Through Xon hern Spectacles If anything were wanting to reassure oui people in regard to the prospect that Ls be? fore them, lt might be found in the remark? able change of tone noticeable of late In all the allusions of the Republican prese of thc North to Southern affair?. The New York Commercial Advertiser tells its reader? that- "all classes of oar peop'e have a "common interest in the prosperity of thj "South. Another season's good crops in "that section of the country will do more to "place the nation in a condition to resume "specie payments than all the theories of "politicians, or the long-drawn out wisdom "of Congress. Through much distress and "misery the South, in spite of politicians "and the blunders of legislators, is now "entering upon a new and substantial ca "reer of prosperity that may soon eolipse "the glories of the West and North." The Philadelphia North American, hitherto one of the bitterest and most uncompromising of our enemies is - in high glee at the signs of our material recuperation. In Its issue of Wednesday it says : " It is found by a "careful investigation into the amount of "last year's orops, and their selling prioos, "that the South ret lins about $200,000,000 "gold from them. It is known that there "is little debt there,, tbe general crash hav "ing cleaned & way everything down to the "foundation, and economy of expenditures "hating been substituted for extravagance. . i ???.?*??????????????.? "fered as moah frora**(he war as any, has "over 3,000,000 head, of ?attie within her "limits, and can export 1,000,000 annually M-better beef at lower rates than oan be "furnished from any other section. The "freed people are working contentedly for ".rages. The.old credit system that ruined "the planters is dying out The planters "are using their current profits to stock "and improve their lands. The books of "our manufacturing establishments and "Bhipping lines show the value and "amount of material that ia weekly going "forward to enable greater production. ??Thia will be wealth, since it is paid for "beforehand, and not by mortgages on "hope. These facts oome directly home to "ow own interests. They underlie a good "and growing demand for our manufactures "of every sort, with a pleading assurance "of payment and a comforting certainty "(hat the nw material will sustain the oon "6u caption, and that prices will slowly tend "downward. They are the very facts that "are wanted to give to our commerce the "impetus it feels on the Paoific coast, but "has so long been without on the Atlantic" These are fair specimens of the spirit in which the whole Radical press of the North, just now, not excepting the " two papers, both -daily," of the notorious Forney treat the affairs of the long maligned and' persecuted South. - ? ? I .??> I I S Pacifie Railroads. To-day, we are told, the last rail of the Pacific Railroad will be laid, and within a fortnight passengers will be able to sweep through on a continuous line from Wash? ington to San Francisco. The completion of this great work, which was begun only five years ago, marred as it is, by gross defects inoident to hasty oona tm o ti on by a paok of greedy sp?cul?t ors and soulless contractors, is yet a mighty stride in the progress of the country. The next step in the same direction must be taken by the South. That the Southern Pacific Railroad is to be built, and built soon, is one of the facts of the fixture, although Congress has denied to su oh a road even the right of way. It will be constructed probably without the use of money abstracted from the pockets of the people, and, rightly managed, it will accomplish for the South double what the other railroads to the great Western ocean can achieve for other sections. Let the Southern press see to it that the subject is incessantly agitated. Technical Education. The latest recognition of the importance of technical education in this country, is afforded in a report transmitted by General R. E. Lee, President of Washington Col? lege, Virginia, suggesting a plan for the extension of the scientific and praotioal departments of that institution. The main points of the plan presented are as follows : 1. The establishment of new departments of agriculture, of commerce, and of applied chemistry. 2. A more complete develop? ment of the engineering schools now in operation, so that to the oourse in civil and nuning engineering shall be added a dis? tinct oourse in mechanical engineering, to embrace, besides machinery, the most im? portant branches of praotioal mechanics. J. The opening of a fara and workshops in connection with the instruction in agristli? er*, industrial mechanics, and praotioal chemistry. The Stream of Immigration. We are glad to see that business organi zations at the North are at last actively in? teresting themselves in the good work of forwarding immigrants to the Southern States, and so far, with'the nioBt encourag? ing success. It is true that their opera? tions, for the present, look mainly to the establishment of colonies in Virginia; but, now that a beginning has been made, the movement mu9t inevitably extend South? ward, and when inquiry is made as natural advantages of the States, South Carolina certainly need not fear the result of a comparison with the best of her neighbors. The following from the New York Times, of Wednesday, shows the character and extent of the movement to which we have referred : "The Manhattan Company have sent South "ward within two weeks 416 persons, and many "others are leaving daily. The locations chc "sen are south of the James River, in Semble, "amherst, Bedford, Franklin, Mecklenburg "and Halifax in Virginia. Each settlement "numbers from twenty-five to fifty families, "and the lands have cost them, in a state of "half cultivation, from $150 to $10 per acre. "The colonists have purchased from 20 to 300 "acres each. The payments may bo made as "follows : Some quarterly, in advance, some "semi-annually, and some in labor. The Old "Dominion line of steamers carry Southward "every trip some member or family of this col "ony. The next regular batch will leave May "2, and 5000 members ate expected to leave "within the next three months. The com? pany have added $860 to its treasury within "the past week, making $3000 therein at pre "sent, with a reserve fund of $14,000 deposited "in city banks." APPLETON'S JOURNAL continues to im? prove with each succeeding number. Its issue for this week is accompanied by the second of a series of beautifully-executed steel engravings, which the Messrs. Apple? ton intend to make a feature of their I journal. The one with the present number is from a painting by Mr. A. F. Bellows, and is entitled " The River Road." This series of engravings will, in the course off year, include landscapes by Church, Casi lear, Durand, James Hart, and other well known artistfl,%and of figure subjects illus? trative of American life, by F. O. C. Darley. The other features of the journal are scarcely less attractive than the engrav? ings. Of all the great Northern publish? ers, the Appleton's alone have kept aloof from sectional bias, and nothing has ever issued from their presses intended to wound or defame the Southern people. We hope that the journal will attain the wide circulation which it so well deserves. .."JUDOS GREEN has fellowed the lead ot Judge Carpenter in deciding that the Homestead law does not proteo t from levy and sale any land, when the judgment is older*rhan the law. ?
