Zion's Co-operative Mercantile Association," -Anew Brie of German steamships will soon be established between the Prussian port of Stettin and the port of New York. The pre? liminary details have already been arranged, and in a few months two steamships of the line Will begin their trips. Stettin is the capital of the Province of Pomerania, and is one of the moat important of the Prussian ports. It is y situated on the Oder, eighty miles from Berlin, with which it is connected by railroad. When %9direot intercourse is established between Stet? tin tod New York, it will doubtless result in a great increase ot oar commercial relations ?Ith that part of Germany. Not only will ad? ditional facilities.bo furnished for commerce, but also for emigration; and the inhabitants of the Baltio Provincas will be enabled to take their departure for America without the ne? cessity of the long and expensive railroad jour? ney to Hamborg or Bremen. -Dr. Nichols, editor of the Journal of Chemistry, and a scientific writer of some re? puto, expresses the opinion that the cool aver ago temperature of tho summer just past is . duo to tbe presence of spots on the son. Dar . iagboth Jane and Aogost unusually large spots .were visible upon oar luminary, and both these months were much cooler than Ute average. What ia the nature of the apota, or dark patches referrer! to, even scientific meo are ia complete ignorance, bot they sro known to be of immense area, fbi' .some of them have been accurately measured. ?-Daring certain years the whole equatorial region of tha sad bas been crowded wit h these spots, se y er al of them cov? ering a bpaca two or three times the diameter ' of the earth, and it ia certainly quita reasona : hie to snpposo that they sensibly diminish the amount of heat raya coming from the sun to the earth. Secohi, the Italian astronomer, has carefully studied those spots, and thinks he has discovered at least this mach about them, that their variation "is confined to a period which is all bnt triennial. If this is BO, a law may yet bs discovered which will enable as to foretell these spots and the variations in tem? perature which they occasion, if we cannot explain them. -The project for a grand international ex? hibition in Washington, in 1871, brings bright visions to some of the psople there those dal' day?. Foi- want of better amusement, they tjckle themselves with sooh fanciful calcula? tions as the following: It is estimated that eeveo equires of ground will bo required for the necessary buildings, streets, avenues, foun? tains, dc; akat five millions of people will visit the exposition, from whoso admission fees, BAY .fifty oents each, the sum of $2,500,000 will be realized; that twenty-five bandied articles will be on exhibition, each having its repr?sen? t?t ive man, who wiH, it is fair to pres?me, ex? pend in the oiiy daily at least $2, thus making an aggregate of $50.000 thrown into circulation ia the city per day during the continuance of the exf.o ition-in all probability six months; that it ia not at all improbable to suppose that th* expenditure of each of the five millions of Tatito? to the exposition would be at the least $10 or $20, this within the six montes amounting tr? ;h3 eaormoos sam of $50 000,000 Or $100 000000; that these almost fabulous sums of money would be left in the City of Washington, and distributed among its me? chanics and merchants and hotel-keepers and professional men and property-owners. -A bombio sensational story has been set afloat by a correspondent of a New York paper, in connection with the late coal mme disaster at Plymouth, Penn. According to this corres? pondent, an an agoniam has existed in that section for a year or two past between tue Welsh miners and those of the other nations, based upon the partiality shown to the former in the way ot promoting them to lill most of the superior positions around the mine. I his antagonism bas developed itself in evidences of ill-feeliug. The Welsh have always been slow to strike, and in tho meetings of the minera'' uni?os they have. nearly unanimously voted against the .^?8?." which is a term expressing an agreement among the minora to ?.trike whenever the sroal fell, .and not work until it went above that Ognre ?gato. The oner miners have mostly favored Ods mode of proceeding, and the Welsh alone hive been opposed to it. Three months ago a 1 meetinsr was l?eid, at whioh, afcer much de- 1 bate, it was agreed on all sides to strike, rbe ?trike was a f lilure, and the Welsh were more indignant tb o ever tvith those who led them bato the frat deas struggle to uphold the "basis." On Monday, the 6th instant, the men of Avocdalo raine went to work, and, ar> eorrhrnc to the story, threats ?exe freely made 1 fafahaat them by the other minera for their ihafdrty in striking, when, celled upon ta < hold out for any length of time against tho winc*owner?. On Monday morning last the funeral 'of a miner was anoounoed, to which all of the miners were invi? ted except the Welsh. The story now pre? vailing to some extent in the coal regions, ac? cording to the correspondent alluded to is, that when the Avondale miners went to their work on Monday morning the wooden petition in the shaft was fired with kerosene oil by some person standing in the tunnel, forty feet below the top of tho shaft, and the work of de? struction thus began. To give color to this horrible assumption of tho mine being fired, one man states that the brattice, (meaning the centre portion of the shaft,) was less burned below than above, and that if it were sot on fire from the furnace in the mine the lower part would be totally consumed, and the upper would be the least affected. The story is alto? gether too horrible for credence._' CHARLESTON. WEDNESDAY MORNING, SEPT. 15, 1869. Our Liverpool Steamship Line. Steam, of late years, has oome tobe the arbiter of commerce, and cities thrive and prosper just ia proportion as they choose to avail themselves of its power. The South? ern seaports are at this time engaged in an aotive commercial rivalry. Each is strug gling hard to seoure and fix, for its own advantage, that great stream of trade whioh, as yet, seems shifting from point to point, and ready to submit itself to the control of the first community that shall display the boldness, energy and tact to grasp BO rich a prize. The Gulf ports are practically out of the ring. The most natural outlet for the immense yield of the Mississippi Valley would undoubtedly be the water courses that flow to the Gall; but the saving of j time by the shipment of produoe via the Atlantic ports outweighs all other con? siderations, and the trade of the great West exhibits a steadily growing ten? dency to seek our seaboard. With reasonable exertions on our part to extend needful facilities, this tendency can be shaped and enoouraged so as to be? come the permanent and unohangeable oourse of trade. Charleston combines in a surpassing degree the natural and artificial advantages whioh should entitle her to the lion's share of this great Western business. Her great railway lines stretching out to the very banks of the Father of Waters; her fine steamship lines, connecting regularly and frequently with the Northern cities, and her noble harbor, all point to a bright and prosperous future for our city. But. chiefly, nan she claim a rightful precedence over her rivals inasmuca as she has al? ready established a line of staunch and splendid steamships to Liverpool, whioh are, we trust, to be but the pioneers of other lines of direot steam communication be? tween the South and Europe. It has already been stated ia THE News that this great enterprise, so successfully inaugurated last season, through the energy and public spirit of the house of R. Blare & Co., is to be maintained by the same house daring the season now opening. A cable telegram, received yesterday, announces that the first steamer will leave Liverpool for thia port direot, on or about the 9:h of October. Shippers from all parts of the Southwest can rely apon the most reasonable rates and the quickest dispatch by this line, and merchants in our own State, Georgia, Ala? bama, Florida, Tennessee and even Mis? sissippi will promote their interests by or? dering imported gooda direot by these steamships. We earnestly invoke the good offices of dial- contemporaries of the press in behalf of oar enterprise, which it should be a matter of pride with the whole South to sustain. A Jolly Defeat in Maine. The Radiaals, on Monday, achieved a vic? tory in M kine; but let a few more such vic? tories be won, and "the party of moral "ideas" is undone. The Governor is chosen ia the Pine Tree State every year; and iVr. Chamberlain has now for foul* con? secutive terms been elected as the Radical candidate. In 1866, when he was first nominated, his majority was 27,690 in 1867, this was cut down to 11,842. In 1868 his majority was 19,316. The oontest this year was looked 'for with espeoial interest, inasmuch as it was to be the first Northern State election of any political importance that would occur since the Grant adminis tration came into power. The result, as announced in our telegraphic advices, is significant enough. The Radicals have again earned the State, it is true; bit with a clear, loss since last year, of over fourteen thousand votes. Making h di to rs to Order. There is a general titter among news paper men at the well-intended bat utterly visionary proposition of a Virginia College to or?ate a "Chair of Current Literature, with a view to enable those who may wish to beonme journalists to learn the "princi? ples and practice of the profession." The knights of the quill declare with one voice that the true editor is "born, not made," and that the best possible training to de velope a latent genius for journalism is a term of service either as printer's devil or in some other equally practical capacity in connection with the off:e of a live news? paper. The learned faculty, we fancy, will find it a puzzling Question to decide what special bracobes should be taught, or rath? er what should not- be taught the youths whom they would train up as the lights of the Fourth Estate. For the journalist dif? fers from all other professional men, in having no specialty, on which he can afford to concentrate his attention. Tnere is no department of human knowledge from whioh the newspaper will not, at times, need in? formation, and henoe the best editors are often those who have the inborn power and tact to avail themselves with discrimination and in season of the brains and varied at? tainment* of other people. Another ob? vious objection to the scheme wouid be the impossibility of providing a suitable "pro? fessor or j urnalism." MAifestly none but a prac teat and first class journalist could fill tn* place, and it ia very certain that BO Bach m*n could be found who would accept lt Ou the whale, we are much inclined to soaear with % Western paper whioh advises ? any young man who has aspirations in the direction of the tripod, to make np his mind to ten years' hard work in the subordinate stations of newspaper life, holding out the cheerful promise that at the end of that period he Viii be an editor-or dead.* Thc Lancaster Railroad Movcmcni. A spirited railroad meeting was held at Lancaster Courthouse on last sales-day, which was largely attended by persons rep? resenting the wealth, intelligence and va? ried interests of the county. Communica? tions were read from Charlotte, Camden and Chester promising hearty co-operation in the movement to extend railroad facili? ties to Lancaster, and resolutions were unanimously adopted urging the County Commissioners to subscribe the sum of two hundred thousand dollars of stock toward the construction of a railroad from Lancas? ter Courthouse to Camden, Chester, Char? lotte, N. C., or to any other point of oon nection with the general scheme of rail? roads in the South, whioh they may deem most advisable, and which may hold out the best promise of succese. A committee was then appointed to act in conjunction 'with a similar committee on the part of Kershaw County, to apply to the presi? dent and director! of the South Carolina Railroad, and ascertain if the Camden branch can be purchased, and if so, upon what terms, and to report the same to an adjourned meeting to be held ou the first Monday in Ootober. A responsive meeting was held in Char? lotte, N. C., on the 9th instant, at which much encouragement was given to the pro jeot. Delegates were present from Lancas? ter and Kershaw, and the meeting was ad? dressed by Dr. DeSauesure, of Camden ; Messrs. Moore and Connors, of Lancaster; and by Dr. Fox, Governor Vance and Gene? ral Barringer, of North Carolina. Reso lutions were passed warmly commending the proposed enterprise, and giving pledges of assistance in its prosecution by liberal subscriptions to the stock. Charlotte de? clares that she wants a more direct route to the seacoast and more markets openec to her trade. COLONEL D. Wyatt Aiken, the Secretary of the State Agricultural and Mechanical Society, officially announces the offer by the Charleston Chamber of Commerce of silver goblet as a premium for the best ten bales of upland cotton exhibited at the State Fair in November next. He urges every planter in the State to consider him? self a privileged competitor for the hand? some prize. THE Air Line Railroad whioh is to con? ned Charlotte, N. C , with Atlanta, Ga., is evidently a popular enterprise in the up? country, and the people of several towns- j Walhalla among the rest-are pressing rival claims for the privilege of having the line so looated as to pass through their respec? tive limita.
