"hnr">rt"hi"* natnraliwt and fr?mallar, a work of great merit. The medal, two lashes in diameter, is composed of bronze; the ob verso presente a profile head of Ton Humboldt, copied from the best models to be procured in Germany, with the inscription, .?Alexander von Humboldt," in large leite?, and underneath tbs name, in smaller letters, "Born September Hth, 17?9, died May. 6lb, 1859;" the reverse contains the legend, "Earth And Heaven be explored, revealed Nature and freed tho mind." This medal was executed by Mr. Anthony C. Paquet, of Philadelphia, the skilled die-sinktir, whose .-other medals, and whose seven yeats' servios in tbe United States Mint, have proved bis ability as an artist. -A special rtisnr.teh tr tbs Nsw York Times, frou Washington, says: "There is good reason to believe that Senator Sumner, who is to pre? side at the Massachusetts Republican State Convention at Worcester, on the 22d instant, nVsajgyiB on that occasion to make an important ?nd possibly very significant speech on the present condition of public affairs. Hs is known to be dissatisfied with the present atti* trude of the administration on the foreign ques? tions, Coba and Alabama claims, and will strongly oppose any movement for tbe reoog tion of Cuba, to which he fears the administra? tion is already committed. He is for maintain? ing tbs high ground of non-interference, thus enforcing a gmt moral example upon Eng? land's attention, and increasing by its effect the enormity of her wrong-doing ia lbs hasty and complete recognition of tbs Southern bel? ligerency." -Fall bonnets are decidedly larger than those Of last season. They are high, towering tinctures, io the Henri Quatre and Louis Quinze styles, and once more begin to resem? ble a bona fide bonnet. Tbs frame fits tbs l|S*fl,Hkr) a close oap, and worn very fax for? ward. A stano'aiT revers of velvet or silk is turned up at the front and st the bick. The space bot vet rx these is filled by a high Wal* tesa puff, on which is looped a mass of trim? ming, which seems to be held in place by toe upright revers. Nsrrow ribbons tied under the chin hold the bonnet securely. Another style, of Quakerish simplicity, resembling an infant's bonnet in shape, has a close fitting band in front, and a deep, flat back, or crown, falling in two or three carves below to flt over tbe cDiffare of ch?telain braids, with reference to which it was evideutJy designed. The front > frames tbe fa09 plainly, without ornament; the back is adorned with trailing feathers and Tines that hang among the low braids. , _An exhibition of noble devotion to duty, Tinder the most fearful trial lo which human nature could be subjected, is to be recorded of an obscure servant of a railroad near New York City. The deed demands the warmest \ and widest recognition, lt needs no fine words . to embellish it. The simplest recital of the facts suffices tor placing the so'jon before the world as worthy "of its homage. Albert 0. Dreoktr ia the watchman of tbe Paesaio Biver drawbridge on the New York and Newark Bad road, whose basin ese it is to see that the dr*jj is closed apon the approaeh of the trains. dPf Friday afternoon last, JSVM before a passenger | train was to pass the badge, tbs draw iras open and Mr. Drecker began to close it The train was not yet in sight at this moment, but the watchman knew it was coming, and that no fr?* should be lost in putting the bridge in its proper positi m. While engaged in closing the draw, a little son of slr. Drecker, ten years old, foll from tus bridge into the deep vitar below. To ss vt tbs cid d's lifo would bo an easy matter; but Mr. Drecker now saw the bain thunder mg along the track, and knew that ^he rescue of his boy would involve tbe d ea true tion of the train. What was be to do? We may well suppose it was a moment of extreme agony. His child was drowdng before his eyes, and its life could only be purchased at tho loss of many other UV? g that were in his hands. God mercifully spire us all from the bitter anguish of such a t dal as was forced upon Drecker! He stood by his duty; the bridge was cloBed, and the train pdlsed safely over it, bul the boy was drowned ! Little did any passenger in this train, dream at what a fearful struggle between a ?ense of duty and the natural promptings of the human heart the safe passage or the bridge bad been so cured. -A locomotive boiler explodion of a peculiar? ly terrible character occured last Friday on the Erie Railwav, near that fatal spot-the scene of so many disasters-Port Jervis, and resulted in the almost total destruction of the locomo? tive and the deatb of four men-Russell Harris, the engineer; William Bowers, the fireman; George Bosencrans, the brakeman; and John Borleigh, the flagman. At the time of the ex? plosion, the traiu must have been running very slowly, as it ran only about a hundred feet siter the accident. Tbe terrible foroe which lies pent in a locomotive boiler may be inferred from the fact that in this instance the dome was blown into the air, over two lofty trees, and landed on the river bank nearly an eighth of a mile distant; large fragments of the boiler were hurried over the dwelling houses in the vicinity, and to great distances from the scene of disaster, and the rails under the engine were bent into semi-circles. The repori was heard five miles away and resem b'dd the discharge of a cannon, followed by a rumbling which reverberated for two or three seconds. The explosion took place near a tan? nery, and nearly every one of the one hun? dred and fifty employees were soon on the ground. The body of the flagman waa first discovered lying on a stone wall about one bandred feet from the train; another was found fifty feet beyond, aud a third was thrown over two hundred feet from the wreck. The bead of the flagman was flattened out like a plate, and the soles of his boots were swept off, and the fireman and brakeman were disfigur? ed almost beyond recognition. The body of the engineer wis not found nntil nearly nine o'clock in the forenoon. It was fish jd up from the river, and it was discovered that an iron bolt had entered the left side and passed al? most through the body. Tho face, however, was not disfigured, and expressed nothing but perfect rest aid repose. The cause cf the dis? aster is unknown, CHARLESTON. THURSDAY MORNING, SEPT. 16, 1869. Tho Immigrants. The Newberry Immigration Sooiety is still actively pushing forward the important work which it inaugurated last year with flo much success. A letter from Mr. T. S. Boinest, the president of the society, an? nounce*, that it has already brought in about three hundred immigrants, the large majority of whom have proved excellent laborers. In view of the probable scarcity of labor next year, the sooiety anticipates more order? for immigrants than it will be able to fill. Those who wish to obtain laborers through this dannel are therefore urged to file their orders as soon as possi? ble. The society's agent will go to Castle Garden early in November and remain there until near the end of December, and secure all the laborers whe can be induoed to come South; and these will be given to ?rties who have ordered, the operations of s sooiety being conducted upon the "first tome-first served" principle. It is hon** j inst Borne of the immigrants will be sent on as early as the middle of November, so as to be of service in securing the cotton orop. Negotiations are now in progress to induce all (he railroads in the State to transport immigrants at reduced rates. God speed the movement! The Championship ot* the Oar-Coffee on Ilia Muscle, Some months ago, when the Oxford Har? vard rowing matoo, was first projeoted, THE NEWS offered a mild suggestion that an op? portunity be given to a picked orew of the lusty biaok oarsmen of our sea islands to show what they could do in one of their own peculiar race-boats in a oontest of power, enduranco'and skill, with the oraek crews who claim to represent in its perfec? tion the rowing science of the two conti? nents. We knew that the trained boatmen of the plantations, whose lives had been spent on the water, had aoqnired a style of rowing which, previous to the war, had been the wonder and admiration of all strangers who were competent to judge of snob mat? tera, and we had hoped that no mawkish prejudice as to "race, oolor or previous con? ation" would have denied to "the man "and brother" the ohanoe to assert his claim to th? championship of the oar. Onr p -opoeition was reproduoed in the North? ern papers with various comments; but nothing ever oame of it, and no invitation was extended to Coffee to take part in the Great Base. We understand, however, that a Northern gentleman of means, who is extensively engaged in planting on the sea islands, struck with the remarkable speed whioh he saw attained by sime of the ne? gro boatmen in bis employ, has now deter? mined to extend in their behalf to the row? ing clubs of the world a challenge to an? other grand oontest. We trust that the offer of Cuffee to exhibit his muscle will, this time, meet with a more cordial wel? come. THE skies are brightening. The Demo? cratic viotory in California is overwhelm? ing, and the Democrats have three fourths of the Legislature. In the last Legislature the Bepublicans had the Senate by four 1 majority, and the Demoorats the Lower House by twenty-four majority. A Chey? enne dispatch announoes that the Demoorats have also carried Wyoming Territory, elect? ing their candidate to Congress. Thus the extreme West thunders in response to the Democratic victories in Kentucky, Tennes? see, Virginia and Montana. Tai Winnsboro' News thinks the propo? sition of the meeting in Union County to repudiate the Radical State debt comes too lat?. With regard to Governor 8cott's pet scheme, it says: "Now the State would "not perhaps approve of the Bine Ridge "Railroad job. if it were a question ab mido, "but throe or fonr millions having been in? fested in tho job already, tba sentiment "of th? stat? is, that lesa will be lost by "finishing it tian by stopping short with it "halfway." ? A White Man*? Government. When the '?Little Giant" of Illinois terse? ly gave nttcrance to the truth that "this is "the white man's government," he little dreamed of the importance that his words were destined to assume, as an axiom in the future politics of his country. In spite of the moutbings of demagogues and fa? natics, in spite"of the temporary prevalence of negro rule over some of the fairest sections of our land, that grand, yet simple declara? tion of Mr. Douglas steadily gathers force and credit with the people of North and South alike. And it is worth while that our col? ored people, who have been taught to re? gard the saying as a denial of their inhe? rent rights, should hear what a negro-an unquestionable Ethiopian, but one of the very few individuals of that raoe who have exhibited the white man's comprehension of a great truth-has to say about it. At an eduoational convention, recently held at Louisville, Kentucky, P. H. Clark, a negro, living in Cincinnati, made an address, in which he said : "I trust that I shall shock nobody's preju? dices, alarm no person's fears for my sanity, when I, a colored man, and a life-long agitator \ for colored men's rights, declare, as 1 now do, that this is a white man's country. In all its wide-spread grandeur of mountain, valley and plain, of river, lake and ocean, of densely crowded city and uninhabited wild, from ste? rile, frozen Alaska to the warm shores of the Gulf, this country belongs to the white man, to him and bis heirs forever. It was a white man's ship burst through tue gloom which had shrouded this continent from tho eyes of the old world for so many oentuiies, and it was a white mau who leaped first upon the shorn, claiming the new land for himself and bis breth? ren. White men have' conquered this conti? nent. Its leeming fields, it * mines, its wealtn producing industries, its thousand cities, be? long to them. Tbis is a white man's civiliza? tion. We gain enlightenment from a litera? ture which, in all its varied departments philosophy, theology, physics, mathematics, poetry and the drama-white men have been perfecting for 3000 years. This, too, is a white man's government. Our Union of States, our guarantee of free thought and free speech, our method of enacting laws by men selected by the people-all these are bia peculiar modes, and are the crystallized results of his political ex? perience. In numbers, in intelligent energy, the whiteman stands at the head of all the races which have found a home in America. White men have come to us by hundreds of thou? sands each year, by millions every ten years. They have, do and will control the destinies of the people residing upon this continent." Could Stephen A. Douglas himself have uttered a more forcible and eloquent vindi? cation of his race ? THE RKV. DR. LORD'S SCHOOL FOR YOUNO LA DIE--School Boom of ft. Paul's church.
