TBS BOAT BiOS.
LONDON, August 23.-The London Telegraph,
discussing the chances of tho approaching
boat race, says: ''Taking our information as
sorreot, we should consider the superior hard?
ness, of the Americans as more than a set off
against the style of the English, sod conclude
that the contest will be mainly a battle of cox?
swains." _
THE CUBAS QUESTION.
PASTS, August 23.-La Prance says: "How?
ever painful it may be for Spam to accept the
suggested solution of the Cuban difficulty,
there is no other plan possible. It is the only
way for Spain to save some valuable payments
from the wreck. The duration of Cuban in?
dependence nz der the protection of America is
another question. The desire to absorb which
characterize a the Americans, qualifies them
very badly to perform the part of Platonic
protection. It is very probable that th9y are

WHAT AN AUGUSTA f DITOR SAW IN HIS
TRA VB6S.
A Graphic Description of Beaufort and
Port Royal Island.
- *
Tbe editor of tbe Augusta Constitutionalist
publishes in that papera graphic account of
a summer excursus to Charleston and Bean
fort. The extracts which we give will be found
highly interesting :
CHARLESTON.
For six of seven y ?are, we had been a stran
ger to the "City by the Sea," aud BO, although
oar stay would be but brief, tbe temptation
an ear y morning stroll could not bo resisted
Ere the sun was up, when the town was quiet,
before the burly-burly of trade had commenc
ed and while the pure atmosphere hallowed
everything, we strayed hither and thither over
the dear old place, and could not but think
that, in spite of war and fire and tbe negro po?
lice, there was au aspect of improvement visi
bte on all sides. The streets were clean, the
sidewalks smooth, the buildings neatly arrang
ed, and even the rains picturesque. Nothing
can take away from Cuarleston a certain pro
priety of demeanor. Even its brick, mortar
and wood work are hienly respecta ble, and we
petition all whom it may concern to permit tbe
Circula. Church to remain just as it is, with
its crumbled wall, its mysterious nooks, and
tbe pigeons wheeling in and out of the belfry
tower. We could bave watched the blithe
burda and their graceful gyrations, by the boor,
but our plans prevented, and, with reluctant
adieux to
"The people
Who dwell ap in the steeple
All alone-"
POST BOYAL ISLAND.
There used to be, under the regime ancien
a superb shell road leading from the ferry to
Beaufort; but it has been long neglected, and
is now churned into an ordinary track of sand
At Yemussee we had beeu joined by Mr. Gada
den, Superintendent of the Charleston and Sa
vannab Railroad, a most skilful engineer and
intelligent Rentlemao; mentally and physically
a noticeable man. Ile waa familiar with eveiy
foot of land hereabout, and enlivened out jour
ney when it grew tedi?os by reminiscences
anecdotes and suggestions of pith and value
Port Boyal Island, as is commonly known
waa BO long occupied by Federal troops that it
became a sort of Yankee empire. At present
it is very much io the similitude of an Ethio
pian province, thanks te that great, good and
tender-hearted man, General W. Tecumseh
Sherman, lt waa he, we believe, who instigated
tbe parcelling of the abandoned lands among
the negroes; and it was mainly through bim
that Congress passed a law bearing on the di?
rect tax, which hts suddenly, aud, for very
little cash in band, enriched multitud i iou ?
blacks and; so we learn, sundry Down-East
suilers el id omme genus. This grand domain
has been turned over t>late slaves and tbe
trooly loll who followed tbe dram m some ca?
pacity or other. These Northern gentry have,
in some instances, behaved with much discre?
tion; v?ry badly lb 61 hers. We heard, for ex?
ample, that opportunities were given the for?
mer proprietors to repossess themselves of
houses-not lands-by the payment ot incon?
siderable Bums. Others of this class, howe er,
did nit behave with equal amiability, asserting
in defence of their despicable maanne-ts, that
the "d-d rebela and traitors ought to be made
to pay dearly for theil dwellings." Let us hope
that each deviltry was exceptional. The
houses held by government were the only ones
secured by their old owners. Those sold bef re
the termination of the war, to satisfy the impo?
sition of a d rec t tax, are, in a majori ty of cases,
still held by those who purchased them at some
ridiculously low fleure. Elegant residences,
costing some $20 OOO in gold, have been bought
for 1300 in greenbacks, and some ii m es tor
much less. General Bufos Saxton, the no?
torious negropbiliat, ia the possessor of a $20,*
OOO house, which coat him only a month's pay.
And so it is in a marked decree io all the Town
ot Beaufort.- The war proved a decided bless?
ing to many poor fellows who never dreamed
of such luck, lang syne, in Connecticut, Mas?
sachusetts and Vermont. They are civil, and
try to imitate Southern manners; but tue effort
is not always graceful, and none that I mot
with were able to eat okra soup, because,
as they avowed, it waa "auch darned Btickv
stuff." They are not absolutely satisfied
with tho tenure of Vkeir property, and
the old proprietors' steadily reject all
application for "quit claims." Some among
th .rn are satisfied that they are rounded iu the
matter of their new acquisitions as firmly KB
the true church is founded on a rock. Some
thmk Uncle Samuel will, some day, vote the
dispossessed parties a bonus of $200,000. Thia
they consider an ample amount, although the
Port Royal Railroad terminus may net the
lucky loyal holder some fabulous amount ot
"demoition c sh." We aaw the former own?
ers of one of the probable termini ot the road.
He waa an elderly gentleman, plying buber
aud thither, like Old Mortality; and the shrewd
young fellow *ho picked uo his patrimony at
a bargain is a very important personage, as
times po. There is another old gentleman
io Beaufort,, .who whilom had a munifi?
cent income, accruing from his plantation. He
wandered back to Port Royal, after tbe war,
andhiB former slaves "magnanimously" gave
him. or lent bim. fifteen acres of bis own soil.
Every morning this venerable but unconquered
patriarch trudges, hoe over his shoulder,
towjrds his little patch, which he works him?
self; and, every evening, hoe over bis shoulder,
he plods wearily bick to Beaufort. We are
disposed to be as charitable as we can to our
Northern brethren, so suddenly made rtch by
the possessions of other*: but oh 1 friends!
there is something that makes wrath drive ont
meekness when wu witness sights like these.
The younger members of the outlawed propri?
etory families take matters with a charming
philosophy; for usage has turned a great
wrong into a great burlesque. But we saw the
water come into the eyes of more than
one youngster as he gazed on the house
where he was born, now turned into a den of
negro prostitution, or a convenient negro ren?
dezvous. Such has been the fate of the capa?
cious Barnwell mansion, a conspicuous land?
mark for the region all arouod. If a case is
ever rn? de up for the repossession of the Port
Royal property, the Barnwell estate will proba?
bly be the test. This well known family re?
ceived their grant from the British Parliament
before the United States existed as such. A
Democratic Congress will simplify matters ex?
ceedingly, aod we do not deppair of seeing that
sort of a Grand Council before onr hairs grow
gray.
The crops in Port Boyal are indifferent. As
a general thing, they are poor, being cultivated
almost entirely by the black owners. These
blacks did not seem very thrifty, but starva?
tion is out of tue question while fish, oysters,
crabs and shrimp are so abundant in a;l the
waste of waters. They seem to have come
down considerably from the "high bone" of
politics, and are quite incensed with their ne
gio legislators because of their taxes, and in
one notorious instance, because the big-bug
buck of all has played them, it is said, some
scurvy trick in the s.ile of their commodities.
BEAUFORT.
It is a protty placo yet; but its interior lifo
and society are no more like tho Beaufort ot
1860 than Beast Butler is like the Apollo Beici
dere. Tho people who once made elysium of it
are no tonger, save with a few Mraggling ex?
ceptions, in their old haunts of delight. The
buildings are left, somewhat the worst for
wear; and the moss-grown old chapel, where
the darlings of the land came to make the
Sabbaths more hoi i ly beautiful, still stands.
But the Down-East gentry live under the
orange and the fig trees they used to read
about in the bleak shadow of the White Moun?
tains; and the choir in the old church, no
doubt, reverberates with nasal psalmody un?
known once to those who slumber beneath the
grouping trees, or thoso who rest on distant
battlefields, or those lovely and beloved ones
who dwell in poverty afar. Dear God I we
could preach a pathetic sermon in the vesti?
bule of that gray pile; but our space forbids it
in these columns.
Perhaps the most striking contrast between
old and new Beaufort may be found in the
COURTHOUSE.
It ia an awkward shanty; but it answers the
purpose of dispensing Judge Plait's bob-tailed
law. It was court week when we were in Boau
foit, and so the town was unusually astir.
Near the boilding aod on the porch unlimited
negroes were distributed. Some sat on a huge
log ou'side, under the sweltering sun, hke
"four and twenty black birls baked in a pie."
Others clustered ai ound the sacred precincts
an unctuous and unsavory mass. Under pro
teat ot our Dose, we made our way into tho
Temple ot Justice-the new-fashioned jade now
philandering poll mell in South Carolina, ibe
negroes were in a decided majority in court.
It would not be a great stretch of imagination
to suppose a Congo millennium at this noint.
We directed oar gaze toward '-His Honor.''
He is a dry, adust old fellow, looking, when
gowned np. marvellously like a performing
weasel. His lips are per etna Hy twitch
I ing. Hardly with a pin of tobacco.
The poor man has lost bis aw-cud; that's
I the matter with bim. His month seems
to be in despiiring search of bis nose. We
really pitied him and wished ho could seizj
upon the desired proboscis. It would be such
a satisfaction after so much of vain endeavor.
But that nose was an unreached paradise
while we were there. To the right of "His
Honor" were the jurymen-ten gentlemen ot
Ethiopian extraction and two white men; at
least the) resemb'ed Caucasians, in tbe body
of tbe ball were tbe lawyers. The white attor?
neys sat on the left of the aisle; tbe black ad?
vocates were on the right. This array of legal
lore in ebony was a novelty to ns. It was
worlb the price ot admission, in front of all
sat Whipper, one of the finest looking negroes
you ever clapped two eyes on. His wool was
cropped so close to his scalp that another clip
of toe scissors wonld have drawn blood. His
complexion was of (be duskiest and glowed
greasily rad act. He is a robust fellow, shapely
withal, affects clean shim, paper collars,
broadcloth coats and immaculate panta?
loons. He is a sensation in eclipse ;
and when he strides down Beaufort
streets with a common negro behind n m,
groaning under a green bag. you might taney
that the King ot the Kickeraboo Islands bad
cometo to wo to have a ban quot Of man-steak.
It is said that he acquired a fair common
sobool education at Oberlin; that he is a
shrewd aud adroit man; that he conducts an
ordinary criminal case' passably wei), but
flounders like a mad porpoise when be quotes
"tbe authorities." He is said to be quite civil
to Southern white men, but does not hesitate
occasionally, so the story runs, to use the
Northern solicitor's pocket handkerchief. At
Whipper's elbow is a spruce but not very
noticeable darkey, who baa grown aristocratic
since he came to Beaufort, and now calls him?
self-Robert Barnwell Elliott." Behind these
worthies carved out of lead oenoil is a
slim, brownish negro named Wright. Like
his dusky brothers at law, he is a Sou h
Carolina legislator, aa well as a disciple of
BLACK-very black-oro**. He turna over hi?
documents with ranch dramatic display, and
ever and anon looks furtively, and, we thought
mockingly, at the white advocates on tbe other'
aide. The bailiffs of the court are all sooty,
and armed with staves wonderfully like rejec?
ted bed-posts. When they ye 1, "Call JOHN
Surra at de do r," or "JoaW Burra a cumin in
de oort," it is a spectacle for gods and men to
contemplate. Tney bave some conundrums
about the "Judge." One in: "Whv is Judge
PLATT like Necemttfl" "Answer: "Because he
knows no law," "His Honor's" decisions are
put down satirically as "Platitudes." During
the time we were uncovered before the carica?
ture cf Justice, two dogs had a difference of
opinion in the presence. It enlivened matters
greatly, and from the perfect indifference mani?
fested for such contempt, it must be a litiga
tfon too frequent for interf?rence and too
unpromising of fees to adjust.

-Lord Taunton, better known formerly as
Henry Labouchere, paid back ?100,000 com?

the ordinary price of the land taken from him.
-It is told that Aurelien Sch?ll, the Parisi?
an feuilletoniste, married tbe rich English
brewer's daughter by the advice of bis lane
lady. Her prudent papa settled a handsome
sum upon her, but tied it up beyond Aurelien's
reach. The honeymoon over he sought to get

that this young man had become a drunkard.
Ho is attending to his military duties as officer
of a regiment of hussars, and employing bis
bisare time in improving his education. The
national subscription taken up for him amounts
so for to 70,000 roubles. Though he is not
known to have taken a temperance pledge,
ho is noted for his sobriety and excellent
character.
-Offenbach wears a "stunning"- costume.
A con es pon lent at Baden-Baden writes that in
a certain place at a certain hour ot the day,
"you will be struck with the approach of a
pair cf yellow pants, surmounted by a veet ot
a sympathetic color, over which is worn a short
coat of bright blue, the whole accompanied by
pearl-colored glove?, a large green hat. a la
Fra Biaoolo, delicately ornamented with a
peacock's plume, and roofed iu by a large,
long-bandied, blood-red umbrella. Among all
these wonderful things a man moves, and that
man is Offenbach."
-The marriage of Princess Louisa, of Swe?
den, to the Crown Prince of Denmark, was

everywhere received with cordial manifesta?
tions of loyalty, and at both Stockholm and
Copenhagen a series of fetes were given in
honor of tbe occasion.
-Spanish parties and politics are pretty well
muddled. A Madrid paper, "El Puebla," has, on
the division of parties in Spain, a remark
which is not devoid of sense: "The Carlists
have a King; the Isabel'ists a Queen; the Al
fon ist s a Prince; Unionists a Duke (Montpen
sier;) but tbe Progressists, alas! have neither
Duke, nor Prince, nor Queen, nor King 1" The
partisans of the Duke of Montponsier and the
Republicans seem to be taking advantage of
this confusion. The "Centenella del Pueblo"
concludes a long article in fi vor of the Duke
with these words: "Place for Montponsier
avaunt the Reaction 1"
-A new sensation is announced in Italy.
Not long since a young and beautiful woman
appeared before the Roman Senate, and ac?
nounced herself to be the last descendant of the
Emperors of the East, living unknown with her
father in a valley in Piedmont; and, producing
documents, she demanded an investigation of
her pretensions. The Senate complied with
h-T request, and finally recognized her as the
Princess Laecaris-Paleologus, ordering her
! name to be thus inscribed on the '.Bonk of j
Gold," at the capitol. The Princess subse?
quently went to Florence, where she has now
taken a bolder step, and founded a Masonic
Lodge tor women.
-From Arcachon, France, on (he Bay of
Biscay, a very singular result of the heat is
reported, which at one moment threatened to
produce a regular pestilence. The muddy
shore near that place is at low water the i-esort
of innumerable eels, which bury themselves in
J the slime till the return of the tide. The ex
1 cessive heat, by drying up the mod, had killed
them in thousands, and the smell of their dead
bodies, washed np and down by the tide, was
I beginning to spread fever in the neighbor boort,
A large number of fishermen were therefore
I engaged to collect them in heaps on the beach,
whence they were carted in la ni and buried.
The total amount thus disposed of was over
[ 400 eart-loada.

ANCE COMPANY, ATLiNTA DEPABTMENT.
To the Asyle of South Carolina:
The above Company was or:an zed in 1866, to
consequence of the wholesale forfeiture of Southern
policies by Northern companies. The unparalleled
success of the enterprise has torced several of these
companies to restore their Sout em policies, tram
the tact that they could not operate in our midst
without the appearance of honesty.
We keep all our money at home to balld up our
Impoverished country-every dollar of premium
being safely invested in the State from which it ls de?
rived. The institution is purely Southern, and hence
sbou:d appeal with great force to the patriotism and
and sympathy of every Southern heart
'Tis not our purpose to make war on other com?
panies, but to exhibit the special advantages offered
by this purely Southern Company-founded on
patriotism and solid wealth. Its ratio cf assets to
Uah.li ties-the true test of a company's strength-ls
second to none on this continent, being nearly $300
to Slut).
Whenever and wherever we have presented the
claims of t'jis Company, it has not only enlisted the
sympathies of our pewple, but bsa also secured their
hearty co-operation. We hive secured 503 policies
in South Carolina since the 10th of February. We
number among our Directors General Wade Hamp?
ton and Colonel Wm. Johnston, gentlemen well
known to every citizen of South Carolina. We ap?
peal personally to the people of South Carolina to
assist in pushing forward this deservedly popular
.Southern institution. J. H. MILLER,

?-PAINLESS DIGESTION .-'?NO MAN,"
says Sir Astley Cooper, "ourht to know by bia sen?
sations that he has a stomach." In other words,
when digestion is perfect there is neither pain ncr
uneasiness in the region where it takes place. Nau?
ses, waot of appetite, flatulency, oppression after
eating, shooting pains in the epigastrium, a flash,
log of the face at meal times, and a faned tongue in
the morning, are among the direct symptoms of ia
digestion. CODS libation, biliousness, hea-ache, ner?
vous irritability, physical weakness, and low spirits,
are ita almost invariable accompaniment?. AD these
indications of dyspepsia, whether immediate or
secondary, are usually aggravated by hot weather.
The close of sa minor is, therefore, the Mason
when the victim of dyspepsia most urgently neada
a tonic and regulating medicine. Ot course, every
invalid bas many advisers. One Trlend recom?
mends one drug, another another; but in a multi?
tude of counsellors there Is not always safety. The

In cases of constipation resulting from a want of
