It is asserted that many more Japanese, adhe? rents- of the Northern Daimios, who have recently been defeated by the Southern Dai? mios; will also emigrate.

The dis? tance from Sacramento to Omaha is not yet ac? curately known. The commiaaioners appoint? ed to examine the roads have recently reported on the oondition. of the track, as it was built on Marah 10th, 1869, and give the length at that date of the Union Pacific at 1035 miles; of the Central Pacific at 651 miles, with 193 j mile! uncompleted.

"What," isidor. Sumner, " Do you mean to say that Lord Palmerston, Lord Derby, and Mr. Glad? stone, have their superiors in the Chinese Cabinet t* " It ia not for me to malte auch a personal comparison,'* said Sir Frederick, "but I repeat what I said, that I have not met European statesmen who were the equals of the Chinese Ministers." Dr. Martin, professor in the College at Pekin, and translator of Wheaton's work on international law into Chinese, corroborated this anecdote by saying that Sir ftadarieg tntd him, in regard to the Emperor's Prime Minister, that he had never met a man that was fairly his superior in intel? lectual ability. AB to the ease with which the Chinese acquire other languages than their own, it was creditable,but by no means rernark able. _ CHARLESTON. o WEDNESDAY MORNING, JUNE 2, 1869. ? Free Helisrlon." The latest folly whioh hu taken root in the congenial soil of New England, ii what ii called "Free Religion." The sect of the Free Religionists seems to have had its origin ia Boston, but has already establish? ed larg? organizations in New York,Chicago and other Northern cities. Ita aim is essentially an irreligious one. It has no oreed to propagate, bat professes simply to be animated by a desire to correct error in others. Ita adherents, by the title whioh they hare assumed, seek to escape the odium, whioh attaches to the name of Free Think? ers; and yet it is difficult to discern in what material particular the two differ. At a publie meeting of the Free Religion? ists in Boston, last week, the views ad vane ed presented a singular medley of extreme radicalism and unbelief. Rev. O B. Froth ingham, whilst disclaiming any purpose to make war oa any form of religion, declared that the BOW movement ?was calculated to "inaugurate an era of the absolute su "premacy of haman reason in spiritual matters." Rev. Colonel Higginson believ? ed in the inefficiency of Christianity ac practiced at the present day, and had con vineed himself of the high moral purpose of the Free Religionists, by finding that "the persons composing the association "were among the leading reformers ia the "most suooessfol reforms of the day." Another io-s ty led "reverend" speaker was disgusted with Protestantism, because it waa "^compromise between Catholicism "and free religion. " He wanted to throw all compromises behind him. Ez-ReT. Ralph Waldo Emerson, the philosopher of Concord, avowed in Tagne terms his belief in natural, and his disbelief la revealed, religion. Rev. Miss Gibson discussed the necessity of a religion " that would know "no sects, and would reeogniie woman as "the moral aad political equal of man." Thii religion of the ballot-box might be supplemented, she thought, "in another "way." Sh? wanted to know "why all the "niles of knowledge, science and truth "whioh modera, civilization had discovered [ "and analysed should not hs gathered into "oas univeraal religion of. humanity for the "benait el. mankind?" After developing ?his stupendous idea, the Rev. Miss Gib? son, ex-chaplain in the army, gathered up the character of the "new movement" and the views of those who uphold it. The sys? tem of religion whioh is thu to be built np by the joint labors of atheist?, deists, spirit? ualists and free lovers, aims st nothing else than the total subversion of all religious belief. They would make reason the su? premo guide, and humanity the grand object of worship. For things spiritual they weald substitute things sensual and material, and for a living soul with an im? mortal future, blank annihilation. Rnenin nn? tate Siek flan. A strange piece of news oomes to us from Rusia. It is said that the Czar Alexander has decreed the removal of the capital of the Russian Empire from St. Petersburg to Kiev, on the River Dnieper. A palace is stow building for him at the latter place, sad the Empress hu purohued a large es? tate there. Great political significance is attached to this extraordinary movement It is taken u a formal advance upon the grand system of policy devised and com? menced by Peter the Great for civilizing his empire and incorporating it into the family of European nations, and it is re? garded also U an announcement to the world that the designs of Russia upon Turkey are henceforth to be eteadily and unrelentingly pursued. Kiev is 670 miles nearer Constantinople than St Petersburg; it is within 800 miles of the port of Odessa, on the Black Bea ; and, by the aid of the railroads built and soon to be built, it is a I point upon whioh, in the shortest spsoe of time, the whole military force of Russia o an be concentrated, ready to march immedi? ately upon either the Turkish or the Hun? garian frontier. Of course, it will speedily be made an immense depot of military, stores, and in the event of a war would be botbj convenient as a military base, and as th? headquarters of military and civil gov? ernment. IT IS a significant sign of the times that a journal advocating Imperialism, with marked ability, boldness and force, should be able to live and flourish in the very heart of the vaunted " Model Republic." The striking article which we reproduce in today's paper from The Imperialist shows that the men who are blowing the trumpet of The Empire know perfectly well what they are about, and regard the cause in whioh they have enlisted with so muoh vigor and seal, as anything but desperate. Tan London correspondent of the New York Times writes : "All Germana cherish the ideal of a great, powerful, united Germany; but the States of Southern and even of Central Ger? many cannot abandon their State rights doc? trines. They stand out for that as Hungary hu stood against Austria; as Irishmen against the union. They fear that a Federal Union will put State sovereignty in peril. Hanover and Frankfort detest Prussia, which has ab? sorbed them. Saxony, which still preserves the semblance of nationality, hates those who threaten it. The doctrine of State rights bars the way to the consolidation of a German em? pire; and to make one by force would be to fill 50,000,000 of people with the samo rage and hate that you can now find in the hearts of the T poople of the annexed Provinces, and, more or less, there is little doubt that the same feel ing is at work in Italy. No glory has come to Italian unity sufficient to reward them for the the IOBB of independent sovereignty, and they are swallowed up only to find heavy bardens of conscription and taxation. Their sove? reigns may not Lava been any great affair, but they have not gained much in Victor Emanuel. Meantime, Spain gets along so well without a King that kingship itself is at a diseount. Englishmen are finding that the Queen is not the head of the church, and only by a figure of speech the head of the Stat?-a rather costly myth, used in legal documents as a mat? ter of form, and ref,-ired to in national an? thems as a popular superstition."

FOB THE FOLLOWING REASONS: 1st Because it is a home institution managed and con trailed by your own citizen 2d. Because it ls the only monied institution of the kind that loans ita funds tn the States from which they are deriven. 3d. Because it ia purely mutual; all po uv y holders share in its profits or- earnings. Its large and in? creasing assets belong exclusively to the policy holders. 1th. Because its rates are In wer than those Of most other companies. And ita dividends will be Alger. 6th. Because it invests its rands at ratea of interest averaging ten per cent, while Eastern comp mi ea' rates average less than teven per cent This makes the dividends of the Associaf on larger and the rates of premium smaller. One hundred dollars improved at six per cent for fifty j ears will amount to $1,842 ol. The same amount invested at ten per cent, will pro? duce $11.739 09. Difference In faVOi Of the ten per cent Investment $9,897 08. 6th. Because you ought to insure ina successful in? stitution, and the Life Association of Americs is ac knowledged by its enemies as well as its friends to be by far the most successful life Insurance institu? tion of its age in the United States.
