Furthermore, it is not 'to be sold at a public bar or to be drank on the premises. -Mr. Patrick Henry Jones, late registrar of New York city, has been appointed postmaster ?of New York city, in place of Mr. Kelly, who was nominated but not confirmed by the Sen? sate. He is the same gentleman who generous? ly came forward and accepted the registrarship of New York city, made vacant by the death of Charles G. Halpine, (Miles O'Boilly) to whose -widow he turned over the full salary of the of? fice for the unexpired term. -Goueral Howard proposes to continue the educational work at the South, which was commenced while he was at the head of the Freedmen's Bureau. It is stated in recent reports that State Superintendents, under the Bnreau, show a desire for a continuance of this work at all points except in Texas, . where prejudice is so strong that it is found impossible to do the proper educational work, and within a brief period not less than sixty school-houses have been closed. For the purpose of continuing the work, General How? ard proposes to raise the funds in the North. -It is said that General Lee who was, at last accounts in Baltimore, is about to visit Presi? dent Grant. A dispatch to the New York Her? ald says : "A gentleman who professes to know the facts connected with this projected visit states that General Lee, who is now in Balti? more, where he haB been staying for a week past will como to Washington shortly, and will be the guest of Montgomery Blair. It is stated that the General will visit the White House during his stay here, and will have one or more interviews with the President, who -lias requested General Lee to call upon him. It ls intimated that the object of the inter? view sought for by the President is to obtain from General Lee his opinion in regard to the working of the reconstruction laws in the State of Virginia, and of the present temper of the leading citizens of the South. What other matters are to be touched upon by the two prinotpal military chieftains is not definitely known, but from all that has leaked out c on? coming the proposed eonferonco it is fair to infer that it will be of more than ordinary significance." -A New York letter, of Tuesday, says: "It is a long while since anything has occasioned so much remark in'newspaper circles as the scandalous developments contained in the Sun, of this morning, concerning the way in whian, it ls alleged, Mr. John Bussell Young, manag? ing editor of the Tribune, has been using the influence of his position to promote his own pecuniary interests at the expense (as it is further alleged) of Senator Cameron, o? Penn? sylvania, Judge Chase, and othor prom in nt politicians; also, the Tribune stockholders; also, the New York Associated Press. The Whole press feel that the profession has been disgraced by these doings or one of its mem? bers, if true; and, if not true, that lt has been not less disgraced by tho publications in the Son. It is duo to Mr. Young to say that he is yet to have a bearing before the public, and that it would be unfair, in the meantime, to condemn him, unheard, however much ap pea* ?noes may be against him. And yet, it must be added, that at a meeting of the Tribune stockholders last evening, he was deprived of l&Is position-though, for some re ison or other, the vote was reconsidered, and so the gentleman still holds on." --The project of a ship railway across tbs Isthmus has been dis mased of late, and a me? morial in that behalf was lately offered by Mr. Wilson in the Senate. Tbs idea ls of loading ?hips upon a railway trank by the common .principle of the floating dooks, and transport I sig them over the Isthmus rather than through it. The Boheme ia saul to havo tho endorse? ment of Bomo of our abl?st ouginoors and naval constructors. Tho magnitude of tho pecuniary interests involved is presented by somo tables, prepared with groat caro by F. W. Kolley, Esq., of Wow York, which BIIOW that tho saving of distance by this route from New York to | Calcutta will be 9600 miles; to Canton 10,900; to Shanghai 11,600; to Valparaiso 8100; to San Francisco, 14,000. From a table showing tbe trade of the Unitod States that would pas? through the canal, takon from the official returns of 1857, the total value of ships and cargoes is $193.168.937; tonnage, 1,857,485. Tho annual saving to tho United States in insurance on vessels and cargoes, in? terest, wear and teat of ships, time, wages of crews and provisions for the same, bo estimates at $35,995,930. The estimated saving to tho trade of the world, basod on the official returns of 1857, is $49,530,208. To tbeBe figures Mr. K. adds the statement that the export s of Great Britain iooroftsod. in ten yesr? 1.07 per cent-; of Franco, 130 por cent.; of the United States, 93 per oent. "If the trade of the world increases 100 per cent, in ten years, the saving will bo $99,060,416 per annum." Tho savings of a sin? gle year, tbon, far exceed the estimate of tho cost of building tho proposed ship railway. Mr. Hanscom, engineer and naval constructor, and builder of our monitors, estimates the cost of a ship railway at ono-eighth of the probable cost of a ship canal. OH ABLEST ON. SATURDAY MORNING, MAY 1, 1869. The Futare ' ot thc Sooth, at* (Seen Through IVorthtr-r, Spectacles. If anything were wanting to reassure our people in regard to the prospect that is be? fore them, it might be found in the remark? able change of tone noticeable of late in all the allusions of the Republican press of the North to Southern affairs. The New York Commercial Advertiser tells its readers that " all classes of our people have a "common interest in the prosperity of tho ?South. Another season's good crops in ?that section of the oountry will do more to "place the nation in a condition to resume "speoio 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 eclipse "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 oar material recuperation. In its issue Of Wednesday it says : "It is found by a "careful investigation into the amount of "List year's crops, and their selling prices, "that the South retains about $200,000,000 "gold from them. It is known that'there "is little debt there, the general crash hav "ing deaned away everything down to the "foundation, and eoonomy of expenditures "having been substituted for extravagance, "laking one State for all, Texas, that suf? fered as much from the war as any, has "over 3,000,000 head of oattle within her "limits, and oan export 1,000,000 annually "-better beef at lower rates than can be "furnished from any other section. The "freed people are working contentedly for "wages. The old credit system that ruined "the planters is dying out. The planters "are using their eurrent profita to stock "and improve their lands. The books of "our manufacturing establishments and "shipping lines show the valus and "amount of material that is weekly going "forward to enable greater production. "This will be wealth, sinoe it is paid for "beforehand, and not by mortgages OB "hope. These facts como directly home to "our own interests. They underlie a good "and growing demand for our manufactures "of every sort, with a pleasing assurance "of payment and a comforting certainty "that the raw material will sustain the con? sumption, and that prices will slowly tend "downward. They are the very facts that "are wanted to give to our commeroe the "impetus it feels on the Pacific 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 exoepting the " two papers, both daily," of the notorious Forney treat the affairs of the long maligned and persecuted South. Paelfie 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 Ave years ago, marred as it is,, by gross defects ineldent to hasty construction by a pack cf greedy speculators and soulless contractors, ls yet a mighty stride in th? progress of the oountry. The next step in ! the same direotion must be taken by the South. That the Southern Paoiflo Railroad is to be built, and built eoon, ls one of the faots of the future, although Congress has denied to such 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 aeoomplish for the South double what thc other railroads to the great Western ocean oan aohieve for other sections. Let the Southern psess see to U ?hat the subjeot is incessantly agitated. Technical Kducatlon. The. latest recognition of the importance of techaloal education in this country, ia afforded in a report transmitted by General R. E. Lee, President of Washington Col? lege, Virginia, suggesting a plan for the extension of the soientifio said practical departments of that institution. The main points of the plan presented are as follows : 1. The establishment of new departments of agriculture, of commeroe, and of applied chemistry. 2. A mor* oomplete develop? ment of th? engineering ??hool? now in operation, so that to th? ?cnn? in ?(vii and mining engineering shall be added a. dis Uoot oourse in maohaaioal engineering, ts embrace, be sidas mechlnary, the most im? portant bvanohea of practical mechanic?. 8. The opening of a ihm and workshops ta connection with th? instruction is agricul? ture, industrial mechanics, and. practical ohemistry. The Stream ot Immigration . We ?rc glad to eoe that business organi? zations at the North are at last act ivoly in? teresting themselves in the good work of forwarding immigrants to the Southern States, and so far, with the most encourag? ing success. It is true that their opera? tions, for tho present, look mainly to the establishment of colonies in Virginia; but, now that a beginning has been made, the movement must inevitably extend South? ward, and when inquiry is made as to natural advantages of the States, South Carolina oertainly 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 oharaeter and extent of the movement to which we have referred : "Tho Manhattan Company have sent South "ward within two weeks 416 persons, and many "others are leaving daily. Tho location? cho "sen are south of the James River, in Eemblo, "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 $1 50 to $10 per aero. "The colonists have purchased from 20 to 300 "acres each. The payments may be made as "follows : Some quarterly, in advance, some "semi-annually, and some in labor. Tho Old "Dominion line of steamers carry Southward "every trip some member or family of this ool "ony. The next regular batch will leave May "2, and 5000 members aro expected to leave "within the next three months. The com "pany have added $830 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 oontinues to im? prove with each succeeding number. Its issue for this week is accompanied by the second ofa series of'beautifully-executed steel engravings, which the Messrs. Apple? ton intend to make a feature of their 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 oourse of a year, include landscapes by Church, Casi Iear, Durand, James Hart, and other well known artists, and of ?gure subj ec ta illus? trative of American lifo, by F. O. C. Darley. The other features of the journal are scaroely 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.

April 15_tbs tal mo YOU OUGHT TO INSURE IN THE CHARLESTON BRANCH LIFE ASSOCIATION OF AMERICA, FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS : lat Became it is a home institution minfcged and controlled by your own citizens. 2d. Because it is the only monied institution of the kind that loans its fonds hi the States from which they are derived. 3d. Because it is purely mutual; all policy holders share ia tte profits or earnings. Its large and in? creasing assets belong exclusively to the policy holders. 4th. Because its tates are lr wer than those of most other companies. And its dividends will be larger. G th. Because it Invests ita funds at rates of interest averaging ten per cent., while Eastern comp unos' rates average less than seven per cent Thia makes the dividends of the Assoclat'on larger and the rates ot premium smaller. One hundred dollars improved at six per cent for fifty 5 ears will amount to 11,842 01. The same amount invested at ten per cent will pro? duce $11,739 09. Difference in favor of the ten per cent investment ?0,897 08. ?th. Because you ought to iraure in a successful in ? tims ion, ana the Lito Association of America is ac? knowledged by ils enemies a* well as its friends to be by far the most successful life in saran co institu? tion of its age in the United States.
