This lady ', is reported to be highly accomplished, and bas ? always enjoyed a high reputation for purity of ' character. A morganatic marriage only differs 1 from the usual ceremony by the fact that ibo 1 .children do not inherit any right to assume ? the throne which may descend to the noble , parent. . -A theological seminary, il is reported, has recently been established in Berlin, for thc 1 purpose of educating clergymen and teachers 1 to accompany the Prussian emigrants to the < United States. The number of emigrants from j Germany has been so large for the last few ( years, that great difficulty has boon experienc- ( ed in obtaining educated pastors for tho colo- ( nies, and this institution has been established to supply the want. It is supported by volun- f tary contributions. ' -The construction of a ship canal from < Now Orleans to Lake Ponchartrain, it is as- < sorted, would diminish the port charges, in \ pilotage and towage alone, by the sum of $1800 ( on a vessel of one thousand tons burden. At ( present it costs $2553 to bring a vessel of that size from the mouth of the Mississippi to New 1 Orleans. The charges to bring vessels of one 1 thousand tons burden from the ooaan to the 1 wharves amount to $570 at Boston, and $676 at New York. It*Js argued, therefore, that a ship j canal at New Orleans would place that port on ? An equality with Northern cities. -It is now definitely determined that Mr. 1 Stillman S. Conant shall be the successor of 1 Mr. Raymond in the editorial choir of the * Times. This action affirms the confidence BO t long reposed by Mr. Raymond in Mr. Conant, a ?Who has for two years been the responsible a manager of the Times, standing in the place j, ?of the chief when he was absent in Europe or elsewhere. Mr. Conant has had a long and varied experience as an editor and writer upon 0 the daily, weekly and monthly press. He has 8 been on tbe Times nearly six years. He is a t man of sound judgment, culture and good t scholarship. He is a practiced and rapid writer. D -Mr. Conant is a young man, and he is placed c -?t the head of a great undertaking. That he ^ will acquit h i mae If well in his high office ia the belief of all who know him, and he has a 0 boat of warm personal friends. Mr. Conant P ia a son of the distinguished Hebrew scholar F and professor, Rev. Dr. T. J. Conant. h -At Eolio, on the Union. Pacific Railroad, g the other evening, three freight trains etood ? upon the main track, when word came flash- fl mg over the telegraph from the super in ten dent, "A locomotive and tender, with steam up, and with nobody on board, have broken 1 -from a freight train and a tai tod do .rn the fe .grado." Ab ! then and there was hurrying to and fro. In a few seo >nds came a second message : "She has just psssed Castle Bock Station." Never were three trains got off upon a siding with less delay. Then the work- * men piled sleepers high upon the track; lest B eventbat should not stop "her" and she t should do murder farther down the road, they fi tore up the ralla below. Just as this waa ac- B compbsbed she came in sight. She shot t through the sleepers Uko % bullet through a pino board, sending them flying in all direotiene, And darkening the air with the splinters, bolt * at tbe broken track she jumped np and down ! with vexation, and Anally plunged angrily, I . Jb^ad foremost, into a ..hill-side. Sho hidmn j ? ..: tweuty-aix miles in twenty-nine minutes-the J e best time yet made upon the road. f -Xlio ?triking exhibit of the business on ibo ! Atlantic Cable will attraot attention, speoially 1 . in consequence of the revelations it makes con- } corning the infljaite advantage to business of t Judicious cheapness, that seems at, first to ig? c nor o tho question of profits. When tho cabio . was opened, ?20 were charged for each mia- ( sago of ten words, and under that tariff an . average daily business of ?505 waa transacted. After tbree mouths' trial the ratos were r?- ( .ducol precisely one-half. Tho cable was still 1 able to do all the business that offered, and at tho reduced price the daily receipts rose to < ?579. After a years' trial another r?duction Of j almost one-half waa made, and a message of ten words waa transmitted for ?5 53. With ^ charges thus only one-fourth of what they j wet? at the outset the daily receipts still rose, jaow averaging ?683. On the first of Septem? ber last tits charges were reduced to ?3 ?a..6d>* ' about one-sixth of tbe original tariff, and un- ! der this rats the daily receipts rose to an aver? age of ?150 moro than at the price charged , when the cable began operations. Ten days ( ago the company made one moro reduction. For what, at tbe outset, they charged ?20, they now charge ?2. At one-tenth tha origi? nal ratea the figures fully warrant the predic? tion that their receipts and profits will rise st leas't tai per cent, above the average of any ' ^vloua year or month. T -Tho political situation in Virginiaatracts a. great deal of interest, for upon tho vosfcilt of . the coming election dependa tho on tiro futuro ?of tho S taw. Impressed by the importance of 'ih? occasion, Hon. R. M. T. Hunter publishes a long letter, urging the people to deal with the ofrcumstanoes in which thor aro placed, so ae to make tbe most of them. "Between two evils, he says, "let us choose the least. Under this view of the case, I should not hesitate to give my vote, if I had one, to Walker for Gov? ernor, for a Conservative State Government, and for the expurgation of the Constitution submitted to the people of Virginia for ratifi? cation. I ann for toking .every step towards self-government for which an opportunity may bo afforded me by the majority that rules ns. Concessions may be forced upon thom by the necessities of the times, or be made hom a Mow returning sense of justice. I will take them as they como, bo they little or mach, without in? quiry into tbe motive which prompts them, if they onable us to take another step towards tho restoration of our Stato to the rights of solf-government." Mr. Hunter elaborates his views at some length, concluding as follows: "Tho white people of Virginia have now an op? portunity to restore the Stale to the right of solf-government, and to obtain the control of its political power at home and in the General Government. If they fail to do so it will bo their own fault, and owing to their apathy and indecision. Before they lose such a rc suit, lot them contider in time what a loss it will he; let them remember, too, that thoir majority, though decided, is small, and to secure such relief as is possible, every oonBtrvative voter should cast his vote and unite in the common cause. I know that our position IB difficult, and that evon if WT obtiin the victory, wo shall require windora, forbearance and energy to reap its fruits; but I have faith in my follow citizens, and when I seo Virginians ruling Vir? ginia, I shall feel that the first great step, which costs more than any other, has been taken towards the restoration of her rights and prosperity." CHARLESTON. TUESDAY MORNING, JUNE'29, 1869. Peace or War. The position of the Emperor Napoleon ia' one fall of embarrassment. There ia no doubt that the departments are still wir him; hut the cities and towna are oppos?e to bis dynasty, and their power is shown by the faot that out of 8,000,000 votes east at the late election?, 2,500,000 were given to the opposition candidates. Even Paris, for whioh Napoleon has done so much, will not he mollified, and has given the government candidates but a beggarly show of votes. If Napoleon is determined to maintain peace at any prioe, he may adopt one of three lines of polioy. The ohoioe is between taking back the modicum of freedom he has already grant? ed, changing the form of government to that of a constitutional monarchy, and , making a new bid for general popular sup- , port. Any one of these is open to many < obj cotions. To set up a new despotism j would be to falsify the pledges and maxims )f many years. To make himself the head 1 )f a parliamentary government were dis- ' asteful in the highest degree, whatever . laorifioe he may be willing to make for the take of the Prinoe Imperial. To bid for , .he clamorous applause of the people by a ; mange of polioy in regard to Rome, would ? ie to alienate those who are now his strong- - sst supporters. And it must not be forgot en that the bitterest foes of Napoleon do lot desire to be appeased. They want a .epublic, and will be satisfied with nothing ess. < It ls, then, evident that In a peace policy j Napoleon can hardly find an easy way of ' scaping from the difficulties whioh sar- i ound him. Oa the other hand, it ia cer ain that a brilliant and victorious war vould restore his prestige and seat him ? nore firmly than ever on the throne. The rmy ia with the Emperor, heart and soul, >nd Napoleon may be willing , to run the La* ards of a failure fer the sake of the i hanoes of success. The Emperor ia not ? ne who threatens before he ia ready to trike the blow. When war comes it will . is without a word of serious warning; bat he speeoh of the Emperor at Chalons is lost significant, whether it be taken aa en* ouragement to the army or as ft means of t seling the pulse of France. Napoleon can, ? f o ourse, deolare onoe more that tbs Em; l >ire is Peaqe; but there is now ft grsater v i rob ability of a European war than there a aa been since the first days of Magenta and . tolferino. A war, indeed, is the only sola ion of the difficulties of the position whioh uggests itself to the outside observer, and lapole?n is not the man iftjfaesiUte because here is aeme chance that tbe remedy may ie ss bad ?a the disease. ?3 Sae State Taxes, Most of tho Stats papers now contain I rtioles or communications showing the aanner in whioh the assessed value of tba ,* exable property has been increased by the ? Itftte Baard of Equalization. Tbs, effect in c tesrly every case ie oppressive 1? tbs ?x rsme; bat the people have no means of rs- ,< tressing their grievances. It was our op?n- i on that the total value of the real and t lersonal estais in South Carolina should < ie at least $200,000,000, but the Teepee- ' able men who made the returns are better J ibis to determine the pashvalas of their' g troperty than are the Columbia Triumvi- ] ate, and even if'io some instances the rs- J urns were too low, it is unjast and arbitrary ] o tax a whole county for the fault of ft few if its cit i s ens. ( Artioloe whioh we find in the Ooonee i fourier, Spartanburg Gazette and Sumter fews, show the state of affairs in tho ' ountieeof Ooonee, Piokens, Spartanburg 1 md Sumter. The value of the real and personal prop- ? irty in Ooonee and Piokens, ss fixed by the ] Itftte Board of Equalisation, is : < Ooonee. Piokens. Total. \ teal estate... 12,870.693 8 854.182 $3,227,855 ?eraonalty... 097,078 408,867 1,297.7*5 83,270.771 tl ,254,829 $4,525,600 fha personal property in Ooonee includes ?387,780, the assessed value of the Blue lidge Railroad in thftt county. Upon the etsi property in tbs two counties, $4,625,- -: 100, the State tax is $88,041. Ia the year inding Oatober 1, 1867, the State tax, of tokens districts--now divided into Coonee md Pichaos Counties- - was $7,456, so that inder tu? new regim* the Stats taxes are ?early five times as large ss they were two pears ago. The county taxes will amount ? $18,678 mors;;so that the total tax ttlon of the two shantis*' this year will ie $47,614 Oaonee; t$ 'cornposed largely of =3saU?l?? sod sandy ridges, and many j farms ar? assessed at double and treble their value. Two farina which told after the ?lose of the war for $18,700, and oan be bought now at that prioe, are assessed at $27,400. In Spartanburg, aooording to the Gazette, lt seems that after tho County Board of Equalization had met and art ed upon the assessment, as made by sworn assessors, the County Auditor assumed the personal responsibility of increasing or equalizing them. lu what manner or by whose au? thority this equalis it ic n was made the people are ignorant. The county which had been regarded as one of the poorest in personal effects in the State, now ranks next to Charleston; the asBeesed value of the per? sonal property being higher than in Rich? land-tvhioh includes Columbia-George? town, Beaufort or Greenville. This is com? ment enough. In the Town of Sumter the real estate was returned aooording to the valuation of three sworn appraisers, the owners having nothing to do with it. The assessment for the whole oounty has been raised 50 per cont., whioh has put the town property at ull events at a prioe far higher than, it would bring in the market under the most favorable circumstances. THE CONDITION of things on our sea islands is the subject of a very interesting letter, printed in another column of to? day's NEWS. The writer, by a lifetime of assiduous attention to the culture of long staple ootton, has identified his name in the markets of both hemispheres with its suc? cessful production; and the thoughtful and highly praotioal views he presents are emi? nently worthy the attention of all who are interested in that important branch of the agriculture of our State. THE coolies are coming, in earnest, at last. Five thousand Chinese laborers arrived at St. Louis on Friday, en route to New Or? leans, to work on plantations under ne? gro superintendency. " HCTlOWi, THE 8 ACRISTAH'S HOUSEHOLD : A Story of Lippe Detmold. By the Author of sunt Marga? ret's Trouble. With Illustrations by C. G. Bush. New York ; Harper <k Brothers. 1869. Charleston : Holmes' Book House. It is not often, even in those days of trans? lations, that we meet with a story of Gurman life so fresh, and withal so pure, as the one now before ua. There is no striking original? ity of plot and no straining after effect; but the characters are well and clearly drawn, .and those who are familiar with the miniature cap? ital towns of Germany will acknowledge the truth and fidelity of the whole quaint picture. The story opens in 1865 and ooveis the excit? ing times of the Austro-Prussian war, when youth and mature age were eager to wield the sword for an United Germany. The popular contest between Conservatism and Progress, which was the mark of those stirring days, Lends zest to the story, an 1 the chances of tho active struggle enable the honest hero to win a willing bride. As we have said, it is a lively md amusing story, one which every ono may read with pleasure if not with aotual profit. Pp. 158. Price 75 cents. (?o??rtncrat)ip lottie.
