Resolutions in favor of reconBtroe t?on on the strictly Congressional plan, in favor of universa* amnesty, and indorsing the ad ministratwr. of General Grant, were reported. The Conservative Convention adjourned to night. They organized a National Union Be' publican party io Mississippi, passed resolu? tions looking to an early restoration of tbe State Government in strict accordance with the Beconstniciion acts, and setting forth that the repeated failures of all former and existing organizations to restore the State and meet the requirements of tbe spirit ot our institu? tions, by insisting on measures of prescription far exceeding the pr ovino ns of the Constitu? tion of the United States and the Reconstruc? tion acts have rendered them unworthy of the respect and confidence of the vot? ers of Mississippi. Favoring the Fifteenth amendment, they deprecate any attempt to imposo greater disabilities than arc imposed by Congre3e.

The Newberry Herald says : "For tbe past few days tbe temperature bas been sweltering, and just such a degree of heat as tbe most decided cotton grower could desire.

TEA CULTURE IN SOUTH CAROLINA. COLUMBIA, June 21. TO THE EDITOR 07 THE NEWS. "Gentlemen-In regard to yoar inqairies re I tspecting tho culture of the tea plant, I would I say that having read, some moat hs ago, an in? teresting article in the Scientific American on the culture of the tea plant. I wrote to Dr? J. Hinsdale, of Fayetteville, -North Carolina, who was mentioned as a connoisseur, and obtained from bim, with great courtesy, quite a number of healthy plants, aH of which are thriving well. I gave them no particular care more than to our "Cardenas," to whose botanical family the tea belongs; and my belief is that wherever the "Gardenas" will grow the tea plant will also. I have since received from a lady ia Georgia some tea seed, the produce of her own shrubs, which are large ?nd nui-like as an acorn. Of these I cannot report BO favorably, -because of want of care. I suppose voa know that the people of East Tennessee baw turned their attention quite largely to the culture of the tea plant. 1 would have thonght that secti nof country too cold for field culture cf the tea plant; but the newspapers say not. Nh- doubt the eastern sbores of North Carolina, "\South Carolina, Georgia and southward, would suit tbe tea cul? ture better. AMADEUS. SCHWEITZER EADE. Its >L? nattie ture la America. The large element of foreign population now among ns, and more especially that from the German States, has introduced a demand for certain articles wh'c'u a few years ago were almost unknown in m inj parts of the country The Schweitzer Ease and Limburger cheese a few years ago were imported, and perhaps are to eome extent at tbe present time ; but their manu tact ure now having been establish? ed m this country, there is no necessity for Buoh importation. Snob cheese can be made here of equal quality with the imported article and can be afforded also at less cost? Hwiss cheese, wuen eaten before itacquirea that strong, rank flavor, whica is deemed es? sential, or at least seems to Bait the taste of a majority of foreigners, is very palatable, and many Americans who have been accustomed to eat of it. grow fond of it, and prefer it to oar best grade of Cheddars. Ita use is increas? ing among Americans in cities, and three is a larger call for the article from year to year. There is a factory io Oneida County, New York, erected for the purpose of making Swiss cheese, and where a very superior article was produced. The manager here was a Swiss cheese maker, and tbe arrangement and ma? chinery of tbe establishment were after the most approved Swiss pattern. In the proper coring of 8wies cheese a room in which a low. even tempi rature oin be se? cured is requisite-hence a callar basement of stone is deemed important for a good caring room. The' chees?-e are pressed into two sizes-the ooo thirty-two inches, and the otber twenty-eight inches in diameter-bat both are uniformly bat five and a half inches thick. The larger sized cheese will weigh, when cored, somewhere near a hundred pounds, and the caring process will require at least three months. The milk is made np fresh from the co w that is, the morning's and evening's mess sep? arately. In pressing, light, adjustable hoops, made of thin strips of elm wood, are used. They are arranged with cords upon the ends, so that the - size of the hoop may be contracted or expand? ed aa desired. On removing tbe cheese from the press to the caring room, these hoops are kept apon the cbeeso, and serve in hen of ban? dages. No salt is used in the cord at the ? tung of making, as is asnal in other styles of ] cheese, but the salt is applied in the curing room. Here dry salt, in small quantities, is daily sprinkled over the cheese during the space of three months, and alter that tbey are treat el witb Bait every otber day. Every two or 'three days during the curing process, the cheeses axe washed with bnne, which serves to remove any mold that may be inclined to form or adhere to the rinds. The cheeses, while curing, appear to be moro elastic, and will not so readily break and fall to pieces as that mode in the ordinary way. When well made they are mellow and riah, and of a sweet, delicate flavor if eaten before they acquire age. They are quite porous, which is esteemed a mark of good quality. Good Swiss cheese usually brings an advanc? ed price over the best grades of factory cheese as commonly manufactured, which we suppose comes from the small quantity made, an4 the supply being kept witbin the demand. We he jr of no exports of American factory Swiss cheese. A WELCOME TO THE COOLIES. In speaking of the negotiations now pend? ing by which Charleston capitalists intend to introduce coolies on the rice and cotton fields of South Carolina, and tbe contract by a Chi? cago company for the transportation of fifty thousand across the Pacific Railroad, tho Mem? phis Avalanche says : This is not theoretical, but practical immi? gration. Iu8:ead of figures and theories it produces tbe needed laborer himself, setting bim down at our doors. We may as well pre? pare to face tbe Cclesti.il, for flo will face us, with his pigtail, his docility and industry. There ia no longer room for him in California, and he will push across the railway to the uew El Dorado of labor. He is the coming man, and we must make up our minds to meet him. He is comm:, because the conver? sion of our blacks into a race of politicians and idlers is making room for bim. He is comiug because, for waat of labor, oar broad fields ar? uncultivated, and forests occupy so 1 which should teem with colton and carn. He is coming because the country ia languishing for bis industry and thrift. The fact that he one day expects to return to the empire of more genial suns and more luxurious flowers, thereuo die among bis kindred, is that much more in his favor. We do not desire bim as a permanent addition to our population. He is not desired at all. for that matter: but biaiead ?ncBS to work, and our millions of acres of un? cultivated fields, settle this in a practical way. We have work to be performed; be has tbe muscle and disposition to perform it Chinese wbo can cultivate tea, cm manage cottoD. For that matter, cotton bas always been cultivated in tbe Flowery Kingdom, and it ia as a field laborer that the Chinaman ex? cels. Ten years from to-day will see a hun? dred thousand Cbi?eso in the Mississippi Val? ley- perhaps twice the number-but we preter moderate estimates. The ball will soon com? mence rolling, and it will never stop. As rap? idly us Sambo quits the fields or becomes to useless that tho fields will qntt him, tho acres Eres -ed by bia coarse brogans will be trodden y wooden ?boes, and bis crisp 'wool' will givo way to the pigtail. Mako way for the commg man. He baa but awaited the hour, and it has arrived. FIRST COTTON SHIPMENT OVER THE NEW ROAD. On last I ucaday the hm lot of coi ton was -hip? ped from this city to tho North by tho new rail? road which b:is boen recently opened through to Augusta-the Columbia and Angosta Rail? road. The cotton waa abipped by Me.-sra. dag born. Herring a. Co., cotton lac ors and com? mission merchants, doing busim-BS oi Warren B.ock in this city, nd consigned to their firm of tbe same name in Pbilad Ipbia. The lot consisted of t wo hundred and twenty-five bales, and left the cuv on Tuesday morning at nine o'clock. It was shipped tbrongh by way of Portsmouth, Virginia, and the "Auuamesaio Route," and, it no accident happens, we sup? pose will reach its destination on Frida) morn? ing-making tbe time between Augusta and Philadelphia three davs. [Augusta Chronic'e <t Sentinel. FIRE COTTON.-Ur. R. O'Neale Jr., bas sent ns a Btalk of cotton wbicb ia considerably ahead of anything iu this vcmity, at least any ming we have seen or heard of.

FOREIGN ITEMS. -The Londou Standard has an editorial on what it calls the "Mnsical Tornado at Bos? ton." -An American wedding is Boon to come off in Paris, a clergyman h av i og beeb imported from this side expressly to tie the koot. -Theexperiment or providintr specially for infant? brought in arms to the Royal Alfred Theatre In London proved a Terr great suc? cess ta one respect. The children left were so numerous that it became necessary to post np notices that no more could be admitted. It was discovered, however, that the mothers Who brought their babes looked upon the ios ti -tation as a foundling hospital, and did not call promptly for their-offsprwir. There is an ac? cumulation of bibies.-and the management does not know what to do with thom; bat the: "children's cloak"1 roora bas been closed. -Sir Rutherford Alcock, the Bri tie h Minis? ter in China, gives an unflattering bat appar? ently truthful account of the pro Tress which China is willing to make. The representations of Mr. Burlingame would seem, according to Minister Alcock, to bs entirely unfounded. The mandarins show no willingness to favor commerce, and their sole object in tolerating foreigners is to secure that their coal fields be properly worked. Tho Englieh Ambassador further warns all capitalists against believing representations which might irdnce them, in the hope of increasing civilization in China, to invest in companies organized with ?he object of making railroads and cons'meting telegraph lines. -During the recent disturb in ces in Paris there was but a single attempt to raise a barri? cade. This absence of barricades is quite a new feature in Parisian erneutes, and there is a very good reason for it. Barricades are pos? sible only in a very short or crooked street, where the nature of the ground renders them secare from an attack by artillery. For this reason, our July rioters did not attempt barri? cade fighting, for the dullest of their leaders could not avoid perceiving that barricades are impossible in a city where the streets are laid ont on a uniform rectangular plan. Napoleon, during the last twenty years, has been steadily converting the tortuous, narrow streets of Paris into broad, straight avenaos. There is now hardly a quarter in Paris where any ex? tensive Bystem of barricades could be built. All the new boulevards can be swept from end to end by cannon. -The "woman question," so far as educa? tion and diversified means of employment are concerned, is, if possible, more persistently and successfully agitated abroad than here. Women aro being more and more employed in postofficcs and other government departments. In France and Russia they are now in the tele? graph offices, and the government proposes to make them eligible to the postal service. Courses of lectures on history, philology, ma? thematics, and the natural sciences are to be opened next fall at the St. Petersburg Univer? sity, for the benefit of women, and an inter nation periodical ia about to be established in London, ander the patronage of the crown princess of Prussia, Queen Victoria's eldest daughter, for the promotion of feminine edu? cation io the higher branches, and for an ex? tension of the hst of occupations available to women. The workers for the elevation of wo? men have certainly cause for thankfulness and courage at the progress everywhere being made. -Prussia and France are already pursuing a hypothetical war in the newspapers. A writer in the Spectateur Militaire says that wheu the crash comes "the northern frontier of France will be ably defended; a part of the active {sic) army will embark at Brest and Cherbourg, os? tensibly for an expedition against Kiel or Dant sio, but in reality it will go e outh ward, passing the Straits of Gibraltar, take up with a part of another active army, and then land at Genoa or Trieste. If the South German States are allied with France, the Danube will be gained at Ra tis bon, Pasean or Linz, from whi :h point the united army will inarch through Tyrol and Bavaria to the Main." Geography is no ob? stacle to this writer, only it ought to be sug? gested: How will the "united army'' get Inn sprnck at some point between Batisbon and Frankfort-on-the-Main? Then, in the opinion of the writer, Austria is to side with France, the army isrfo march from Trieste to Vienna or Presbnrg, then along the March through Moravia to Silesia, avoiding the Bhine, the Weser and the Elbe. "A great battle will be fought somewhere between Dresden, Bantzan and Breslau, the road to Berlin will be cleared, and the peace of the world assured." But what will Prussia be doing all the time France le to be accomplishing these fina things ? -Bismarck's Gannan Confederation is net composed entirely of harmonious elements. The citizens of Frankfor. cannot forget the fame of the old " free city," and even now chafe bitterly under the humiliation of Prus? sian rule. A correspondent who attended the Oarer-feet, bold in the forest near that city, last May, gives, in the following anecdote, a good illustration of the feeling of the people, as Vieil as ol theil peculiar way i of expressing it. He BATS : " Bat one incident occurred to mar the festivities of the day, and even threat? ened a gi eater disturbance between the people and the soldiers. I have said that politics were apparently forgotten; tbe old hate against the Prussians only slumbered. The Prussians could not get oar forest, anyhow, hard as they tried,' said one. 'The old Wald is consecra? ted by too many fests for the city to part with it,' said another. About seven o'c'uck in the evening, some Frankfort journey mon beer brewers began to tease two Prussian soldiers, who wcro seated very peaceably, drinking their bser, on tho grass. A few other rough fellows cime np. and began to join in abusing the Prussians, until one of tho soldiers, becoming exasperated, drew bis sabre and Isl! cted a wound in tbe skull of one, which threatened at first *.o prove fatal. The soldier then drew his sword, and the fight between the two parties became goneril for a time until a mounted offi? cer and some policemen came upon thc ground. Some three or four civilians were seriously wouodol. Tho fight cause1! a general panic y mons the great mass of people, and an almost indescribable scene ol contusion resulted. Pa? rents shouted for their strav cnildren, singing societies gathered their members together.and a hasty Hight from the spot was resolved npon by so ne of tho more cautious. HaDp.'ly. in half sn hoar peace was partially restored, though fears that the fight would again break ont prevailed. Naturally enough, the Prus? sians came in for a good share of abuse. The most amusing remark 1 heard was from a stout Bavarian, who looked os if he was very well acquainted with the Court Brewery : 'Civiliza? tion!' said he, 'this is the boasted Prussian civilization I Io our Bavarian Sohnetzen and music fests we have never bad such scandal aa this ! Yes. if this ie the boasted Fra esma civilization, I will go I waut to live a littlo longer in my Bavaria I Fritz let us go. This hato pgarnet Prussia pervades every class in Frankfort.'" THE MONET KINGS. The Astor?, Vanderbilt ?nd tbe Reit. A New York letter says : Tbe largest owner of personal property is thia city and the United States ta Commodore Vanderbilt, who is said to hold $20,000,000. The Asters, whose chief wealth is in land, bave abont $5,000,000 in personal estate. Moses Taylor has abont $4,000.000, ot which bis coal stocks, m connection with those of his son-in law, Teach $1,600,000/ George Law has $2.000. 000, while ont of the estate of the late John J. Phelps, amounting in all to $8 000,000, abont two-wirds are in personal property. These last mentioned men were not ambitions of being numbered among oar real estate tordis. Their money had been made by handling personal property, and .they preferred to keep it in this shape, 'i hey wished to have their pecuniary; resources ready for action at a minute's warning, in order to take advantage of any opportunity. If a cer? tain stock fell in price they wanted to be able to bay it ap, and having the control ot vast amounts of cash, they could enter Wall-street at any tune and cut right and left with great effect. Such active, nervous, resolute men do not care to be troubled with the ?low details of real esta1 e. Baal estate is like foices shut np in a stronghold, while personal property is like soldiers in the field. There is a constitutional difference between Commodore Vanderbilt and William B. Astor, wbicb is shown by their aptitude for their Feculiar positions. Astor sits in an office on nnce-street, and simply holds on to bis land. His life compared with that of an active busi? ness man is a mere vegetation. He bas none of the excitements of gain or loss, and never knows what it is to corner a clique or to be cornered h rms elf. , How could such a man as Vanderbilt endure this lite ? It would be like cooping the eagle. He prefers to rule Wall street with a rod of iron, and make the finan? cial world to tremble as he goes marching on. printing. PRINTING.
