The official in? auguration bas now been fixed to take plaoe on the 17th of November next. -Tho Macon, Georgia, papers say that their new colored postmaster makes sad work with his business. The Telegraph says: "Day be? fore yesterday a gentleman brought ns two thirds of our newspaper mail which had stray? ed into his box. Yes'ord iy nearly one-half of our letters came in the shape of voluntary con? tributions by outsiders, who had undesignedly been placed in possession of them. These are imes in which the people mast be neighborly. Pass aroand the letters and documents until they get into the right bands." -A tian Francisco paper of the 27lh ult. says a contract bas boen mode ia that oily to supply 20,000 Chinese laborers to be employed as plantation hands In Tennessee. The same paper commends the Chinese laborers for tbe manner in which they performed their work on the Pacific Railroad, and thinks general at? tention has been attraoted to this olass of labor for the reason that they have proved them? selves unsurpassed as rough workers. The Terme seo immiir?nta will receive their fare to the State and $20 per month wages. Anoth? er force of 26,000 is being contracted tot to proceed to Mississippi. -The fares, in gold rates, for a journey round the world, vlsi ting the most important cities, it is asserted, will amount to $1554, made up of the following items: flew York to San Francis? co, $100; San Francmoo to Shanghai, $300 Shanghai to Hankow and back, $100; Shanghai, to Hobg Kong, 75; Shanghai to Canton and Maoao andreturn, $30; Hong Kong to Calcutta, by way or Ceylon. $850; Calcutta to Delhi (second class), $24; Delhi to Allahabad, ?10; Allahabad to Bombay, $25; Bombay to Suez, $300; Suez to Marseilles, $00; Marseilles to London, $20; London to Now York, $180. A liberal estimate, however, of the fares will bring tho charged up as high as $1803 to $2000. -The New York Herald remarks upon the result of the Virginia election: '1 bo lesson to be drawn from this Virginia cleo i iou is, first, that by pursuing a similar conreo to that of the sensible Virginia Conservatives, tbe re? sponsible ?hites of every Southern a ta te, from Virginia to Texas, may m ure posBeasion of tbe State, And secure tho negro bal ?mee of power for future operation?. Thus, within the .hort space of a single year, we may have an end In the South ot Northern Radical carpet? baggers operating for Soul hern negro supre? macy. In a word, the Conservatives of Vir? ginia have developed a new party organisation, which, if followed hp by tho anti-Radioal ele? ments throughout the Union, may soon give ns the dominant national party of the future.'' -The Democrats of Ohio have put in nomi? nation the io. i J wing ?tato ticket: For Gov r nor, General W. S. Roseorans; for Licutenaot Govomor, T. G. Godfrey; for Judge of Supreme Court. W. J. Gilmore; for State Treasurer, Ste ' phou Rubrer; for At tor ney-G en era 1, < Colonel J. M. Council. The resolutions adopto j by the convontum fi vor the taxing of bouda and their redemption in greenbacks; and oppose tho Fif? teenth amendment, the national bank system, and military commissions; and embody beside those features, tho usual vague electioneering clap-trap about hours for labor, a homoBteud exemption act, thu donation of public lands to actual Bottlers, &o. The ticket may be regard? ed as a strong ono, and the contest in the State promises to be exoeed.ngly close. What tho result of putting a war man at the head and tail of tho tioket ( .Mr. Connell having beea a colonel in active service during tho war) may be, cannot be accurately judged until tho rural press is heard from pa tho subject. There wee danger that tho selection of a military or even a mixed ticket would lose in the peace wing of tho party all that it would gain from the wax? wing; but the result would seem to indicate that tbero bad beeu a tunion, and that the whole party bas determined to lay aside old feuds and redilectious au 1 go in to win. -Gilbert Carloton Walker, who has been elected Governor of the Old Dominion, is a native of Bingbampton, Now York, and is thirty-seven years of age. He was educated at Hamilton College, New York, at which insti? tution ho graduated with honor in 1854. Adopt? ing tho law as a profession, ho practiced awhile at Owego. Meanwhile bc took some interest and part ia politics, earnestly espousing the Democratic faith. He wus frequently sent as a delegate to Democratic Stale conventions, aud waa a leader among tho young Democracy. Not content with oouutry practice, Mr. Walker removed to Chicago, and soon acquired a large and lucrative business in his pro te ss ion. In 1865, just as the war was closing, Mr. Walker took up his abode m Norfolk, Virginia, and in a short time became largely identified with tho commercial interests of his adopted oity. He was elected president ot the Exchange Nation? al Bank, a position he still holds. Last year he went to Liverpool os a representative of the commercial men of Norfolk, with a view to furthering their interests by way of direct trade. While abroad Mr. Walker visited Con? stantinople and other portions of the far East. Io the election for members of the Constitu? tional Convention of Virginia, Mc W., then a recent resident of the State, was elected as the Conservative Bepublioon candidate tor the Norfolk District, but, by the aid of iron-clad oaths and Federal bayonets,, his opponent, the well known Dr. Bayne (colored Radical j was elected. Mr. Walkerie or large frame, aa inch or two over six feet in height, has a piercing blaok eye, aid is called the handsomest man in Virginia. Those who know him best attribute ' to him rare executive ability. ? CHARLESTON. ---o MONDAY MORNING, JULY 12, 1869. Direct Trade. Last season a line of safe and commodi? ous steamships plied regularly between Charleston and Liverpool. This was un? dertaken at a time when the people were gloomy and depressed, and only the most sanguine looked forward hopefully to a revi? val of our trade. There was many a difficulty to be encountered, and muoh lukewarmness and indifference to overcome; but the pr ojeo tera of the line persevered, and made it so successful that the owners on the other side are highly pleased with the result. Charleston has done what no other South ern port has dost. Ws ha-? saad? lut ?tni and most diffioult step; and it remains with us to decide whethi r i a will retain the vuutage grouud whit h wi h ?ve gained and KQrjcase the streogt.li ol our position, or throw away one ol I toa - go lea opportuni? ties which come but rarely to even a favor? ed community. It is no question now of establishing experimentally a direot steam? ship line between Charleston and Liverpool. That has been done. What we now have to determine is, whether the trial trips of lost year shall be repeated under better prospeots and with a greater certainty of profit. We believe that we are justified in say? ing that, if our merchante and brokers take any active interest in the important matter of direot trade with Europe, a Charleston and Liverpool steamship liae will be in regular operation through the coming business sea son. The support whioh ia required is but a small matter in comparison with the magni? tude of the benefit whioh may reasonably be expected; and the active efforts of our sister oities should teach us the necessity of bestirring ourselves on all ooeasions to per? fect our communications and increase our facilities for the shipment of the staple. A little exertion will make the line permanent and sure, and we cannot think that the en? terprising merchants of Charleston will, allow this to be wanting. The ohief points to whioh attention should be given, in conneotiou with this question of direot trade, are-1. The propriety of capitalists in this city'being part owners of the line. 2. The adoption of measures for securing the ships a good inward freight. 8. The perfection of arrangements fer filling and dispatching the ships without an hour of unnecessary delay. 1 A subscription of a few thousand dol? lars by merchants in South Carolina would prove ont faith in the direct line, aud show, that we ar? in earnest. The ships eau be i worked so aa to make money, and with a proprietary ie ter est here we could obtain better terms than we can obtain while the whole of the Uno ia owned across the At? lantic There, ia money, enough in the State, and to spare. It could not be applied to a better purpose than that of establishing a direot steamship line whioh, in tho end, would go far to make Charleston the great importing and exporting oity of the South We have the start now, and c-innot be beaten unless we are wilful laggards in the race. 2 Immigrants will form the best kind of inward freight for our steamships. They can be brought hq re as cheaply M they can be taken to New York, while the passage will be attended with less risk and discom? fort. The railroad fares for immigrants from Charleston to tho West are lower, we believe, than from Mew York or Baltimore to the Weet, so that the Charleston line can take immigrante lot St Loni?, for instance, nt a lea? rate than the Now York lines can take them. This portion of the immigrant business would mainly he arranged on the other side. Car work ?would be to bring over white immigrante fer South Carolina/ Thia can be done by an agreement on the part ef different farmers to give ao many acres of land to each whit? family actually settling in the State, the titles to be deliv? ered when the immigrants have oooupied the farm, say five years. Thia influx of white 1 thor would redone th* prion of negro If bor and make it moro efficient. Ia tko mean* willie, real estate, encouraged bj the in? crease of population, would rapidly rise in price. By giving away land which is almost without Talus, we can obtain immigrants who will fill our steamships, and do good service in renewing and invigorating the agricultural life of the State. 3. There is no trouble in giving our steamships full and prompt freights, if our merchants will only remember that a simple appreciation of the advantages of direot trade will not enable owners to pay run? ning expenses and the interest on oapital. Each merchant should strive to do some? thing, however little, for the line. There ?B no use itt relying on others. Every man should do his own part without regard to his neighbors. This is all that is wanted, and if all our merchants determine to do something towards filling up the Liverpool line, the ships will have more freight than they can carry, even if they make a trip every two weeks. These things certainly deserve immedi? ate and careful attention; and we hope that both the Chamber of Commeroe and Board of Trade will at once take measures to give all the assistance in their power to the di? rect steamship line, and will concert arrange? ments for a live and hearty oo-operation with the owners and agents. There is no time to lose. Let the representatives of our trade and commeroe meet and act at WK see it stated, but oan hardly credit the news, t hat Miss 8allie B. Banks has been appointed Deputy Collector of Internal Revenue for the District of Sumter, S. C. Miss Banks has been for some time teaohing a colored school. leo I?tlUkatttfiU.

THAT ANT SICK MAN SURVIVED THE treatment of Atty years a;o, uiust be CDuttiderei a proof th it hum tn beings are very hard to kill. The lancet, calomel, cantharldies and drastic pur? gatives were thou the order of tho day. The phy. sic an played into the hands of thc apothecary, and the unfortunate patient was drenched morning, noon and night with prostrating medicine*. Wo live in a moro rational and conscientious era. Th? Importanco of supporting Nature in its conflict with disease is now understood. Complaints in themselves weakening are no longer aggravated by artificial depletion. They are met with TONIO3 that rally ibo vital powers and enable them to de? feat the enemy. Chief among these allies of Nature, in its battles with sickness, is PLANTATION BITTKKS. This wonderful vegetable restorative ii the sheet anchor of the feeble and debilitated. As a cordial for the aged and decrepld it has no eljf?al among stomachics. As a remedy for the nervous weakness to which the tender sex are especially subject, it is superseding every other stimulant and nervine. In all climate?; tropical, temperate or frigid, its acts aa a specific in every species of disorder which un? dermines the bodily strength and breaks down the animal spirits. Wherever it is introduced lt be? comes a standard article-a medicinal staple. Drug, gists, although their profit upon it is small, find lt absolutely necessary to keep a preparation for which everybody Inquires, and for whick nobody will accept a substitute. It is to-day the most popular medicine in the civilized world. Extensively as it ia advertised, ita beat advertisement is the beneficial result which uniformly follow i its use. Every bottle sold insures the Bale of at least haifa doz an more. Unlike other stimulants it braces and fortifies the system without exciting undue cerebral action. The cheering effect which it producei upon the mind is not momentary, but permanent. There ia no subsequent depression. It does not, as ia the case with sU other stimuli, begat a oraving fox ex? citants. On the other hand, lt soothes and calms the nerves, comb ning, strange aa the anomaly may seem, tua qualities of a sedative aad gentle anodyne with those of a tonic and lnvlgorant. The perfect purity of all ita ingredients, their admirable adap? tation to the purposes they are Intended to sub? serve, the judicious proportions in which they are combined, and Ute sol an tifio skill with whioh they are blended, render this famous article at ono? the most potent and the most harmless of all known tontes and alterative*.
