His house and grounds at Norwalk, . Conn., are valued, In their incomplete state, at $800,000, and it was lils Intention to expend more than a million upon them. The owner's chamber is furnished With elaborately inlaid rosewood, the bedstead canopied with green forming a framework of gold and Jet. At? tached are a dressing-room and an oratory, the latter frescoed In imitation of fluted whit . satin, the windows hang with Persian fabrics, and the celling in rose drab and gold with a dome of sky-blue studded with stars. -Mr. C. Redding, of England, has written another letter on the Byron scandal. He as? serts that there is not a shadow of foundation for Mrs. Stowe's charge against Mrs, Leigh, and declares his belief that Lady Byron herself never circuir ed such a statement. The letter concludes as follows : " The cause of s?para? tion will perhaps remain a mystery. I karte ? forty-four years a<jo. but the secret never passed my Ups. It was told to me by a friend of Lady Byron's, it matters not to a curious and censorious world, which In reality cares not a jot about the matter except to gratify an idle curiosity, which Mrs. Stowe's sensation fictions and affected sympathies about black or white have the effect ot stlnuUatlng." -The Hartford (Conn.) Courant punishes the following card: "Mrs. Stowe desires thc friends of Justice and fair dealing to publish for her this announcement: That she has kept si? lence heretofore in regard'to criticisms ou her article on Byron for two reasons: First, be? cause she regarded the public mind as in too ex? cited a state to consider thc matter dispassion? ately; and, second, because she has expected the development of additional proofs in Eng .^fiand, some, o^viilch, of great importance, J haveaireadyfome to hand. Mrs. Stowe is pre paring a review of thc whole matter, with further facts and more documents, including several letters from Lady Byron to her, attest testing the vigor and soundness of her mind at the period referred to, and also Mrs, Stowe's own letters io Lady Byron at the same time, which were refttrned to her by the executors soon after that lady's death. She will also give the public a full account of the circum? stances and reasons which led her to feel it to be her duty to make this disclosure as an obli? gation alike to Justice, gratitude and personal friendship." Social Equality. The folly that prevails upon this subject is amusing. There is a whole class among us who, like the freed people in Barbadoes and Demer&ra, have come to the conclusion that they ctn realize a social Utopia by the le? gerdemain of words-by talking down the in? telligent and talking up the ignorant. The other day we were striving to identify a col? ored man who accostai us, when he under? took to assist an uncertain memory. He stated that he used to belong to "the old "man, so and so," (white gentleman,) and that he was now residing with "the old lady, ' 'Mrs. so and so," (colored cook and washer. ) A friend of ours, a person of remarkable courtesy and consideration, took the pains to go to a honse where % colored family re-* sided, for the purpose, of doing a kindness to one of the s?ns. Wtien/ in accordance mth his fif?-Jong custom, aiW irt,daed in token o? good will and respect; lie addressed ^ the woman who came to the door as "Mnu ! "ma, "he was assailed with such a torrent of abuse that he had no alternative but to hurry away.. A day or two ago, the Charles? ton papers contained the advertisement of "a lady who wished a place to cook and "wash;" but who had no idea that such a notice was fatal to her purpose-that no? body would be so cruel as to employ her to soil her dainty fingers among the tubs and pots. Such are samples of the curiosities of Southern life-of the confusion of distinc? tions-the loud self-assertions-the eager, tumultuous aspirations-the social masquer? ades, which Eatlical statesmanship has con? ferred upon our people. The present condition of things reminds one, to some extort, of the FrenchJ Revolu? tion. We see among us a modified Jacobin? ism-that is to say, a Jacobinism with its ferocity tamed and its grotesqueness height? ened-but still it is the same coarse dema? gogue who proclaims "liberty, equality, fra "teruity," in all our streets, and whose proclamation means precisely what it meant eighty years ago-"Down with the gentry "and up with the canaille!'' What wc see c"ery fray strikes us as a curious travesty, as a funny anachronism, as the France of 1792 contemplated through thc wrong end of the telescope. The Longshoremen put on the airs of a Paris mob; Alderman Mackey leads his cohorts to the City Hall, and there harangues them with the courage and dignity of Danton; the City Council wrangle and conspire in a mildish way, like a Jacobin club hybemating; Robespierre's house up town is haunted by dusky serena ders and ghostlike '-Hto-s from dewy eve , till dawn; ever and in the oflicial guil- ? lotine obeys the promf Mig of an invisible I hand and sombody's head comes oil*; anti < ?las 1 the goddess of liberty chants the rude Viarsellaise, and sends forth her missives and 1 iier oracles, beside the cooking pot and the * ?.aali tub. Ah, Wily cannot tho ?ood old ? Lime return ! The contrast and the cojnpar- ^ ison which hisiory recalls to the gentle pro- j etarian is intolerable; tia "Hyperion toa | "Satyr." She whose claims are snfih that j uiy "gentleman'' iu thc land-"Might not < 'between the winds of Heaver, visit her face i "too roughly"-is, by thc hard fortune of hese days, begrimed with smoke und be? spattered with soapsuds. Yet notwithstand ng all these disadvantages, she will cling to 1 ?er gentility to the last. Has not the "black ( 'major" shown, in his immortal autobiogra- 1 my, that the deeper the color the richer Um 1 flood that runs below ? " ( The little squabbles in regard to social ( irecedence that so often occur among us, j irise mostly from the younger portion of a i slass who have been intoxicated with the 1 sudden privileges of freedom, but have no 1 sense of its serious responsibilities. The 1 elders are steadied less by reason than by 1 habit and custom.1 The decorous proprieties J of the life in which they have been trained itUl .cleave to them. And they have a cer- 1 tain instinctive sense of the fact that equali ty and fraternity are further removed from their race now than under the old regime. among thc classes and ranks into which ( society was formerly divided, there were a ' thousand friendly associations connecting j the employer and the employed. There were ^ bridges over the gulfs of caste. There was Et frequent and kind intercourse between the extremes of society, which was carried on without a degrading servility on the one hand, and without an oppressive conde? scension on the other. But in the contest , that now exists, a new spirit is awakened, a i 9pirit that in the end will be quite uufavor- i able to the interests of the laboring classes. I A gentleman jostled in the streets may 1 philosophically say: "Let the blackguard 1 "take the wall !" or a.lady interrupted at an ' entrance may repeat the sharp rebuke of ' Frederick I, "Let thc greater fool go first !" Bot these contests leave a rankling sting, 1 and will be settled, after awhile, before another tribunal. Tiiis country cannot be orjven over, any more than France was, to ' the shirt sleeves and the nans culottes. The most important duties pertaining to ' the present condition of society-perfect self-possession and considerate kindness in dealing with the uneducated classes-have 1 been well understood and admirably carried 1 out by our people. This is a cunning fence ' against coarseness and boorishness-a ni0fr { terly inactivity which in the end will carry" the day. Nor need the better classes of so? ciety be seriously disturbed at the foolish self-assertion of au inferior race, or the ef- . forts of adventurers to thrust their constitu- 1 jncy into more relined circles. As a ?ecent Italian traveller, who philosophizes on the social chaos of Victor Emanuel's dominions, lias well said: "The only equality which "can be officially recognized in human so? ciety is, the equality qi civil duties, the "equurtfy of rights being a mere deduction ?.from it; social equality is a prize to bc "fought for and toiled for, and for this very "reason an ever-receding mirage, which may 1 "very well be ignored altogether; at least by "those few elect who aim at higher things "than wealth ami power, und who would be l ..rich even in rags and free in chains." If society is "a race-course where everybody "has a fair field and a fair start," we ueed entertain no apprehensions as to who will I trio at last. Ii i-u th of Franklin Pierce. The news of the death of ex-President Pierce will be received with sincere sorrow at the Soutii. He belonged to a class of patriot statesmen who are fast passing away. Throughout his public career he breasted with unflinching steadiness and courage the tide of fanaticism, which has at length swept over the republic, whelming in its ruthless course most of the landmarks which have hitherto been our guides to na? tional prosperity; and he bears to his grave a name and fame worthy of the best of our Presidents. Mr. Pierce was born in Hillsboro', N. H., in 1804, and was educated at Bowdoin Col? lege, Maine. He commenced the practice of law in Massachusetts, but subsequently re? turned to his native town, where he was elected a representative in the Legislature, and soon after Speaker of the House. Iu | 1833 he was chosen a member of the United States House of Representatives, where he .held hit seat until 1837, when he'waa fleeted to represent New Hampshire in the Senate. After five year's serviee iu*tliat body, 'he resigned his seat and resumed the practice !uf law, at Conc?n!, N, H. From this time' he resolutely declined political ollie? though urged again and again to accept the can dicacy for Governor of the State or United States senator. President Polk tendered him 8uoces3ively the positions of Attorney General and Secretary of War in his Cabi? net, but these honors were likewise declined. When the Mexican war broke out, Mr. Pierce enlisted as a private in a New England regi? ment, but President Polk sent him a colo? nel's commission, and subsequently pro? moted him to the rank of brigadier-general. He was in most of the battles which were fought between "Vera Cruz and the City of | Mexico. On the conclusion of peace he re? signed his commission and returned to private life. And he so little courted politi cul prominence, that the whole couutry heard with surprise of his selection, by the Baltimore Convention of 1852, as the stan? dard bearer of the Democratic party. After a very exciting canvass, ho was elected by a handsome majority, beating General Winfield Scott, who was at that time the war idol of thc Whig party. The administra? tion of President Pierce was able, dignified and successful; and the country recognized the fact by entrusting the succeeding ad? ministration to.thc hands of-the same party which had placed him in power. While his public career was thus prosperous and honorable, his private life is conceded by friends and enemies alike to have been con? sistently upright and unsullied. OUR esteemed contemporary, thc York ville Ear/Hirer, is of opinion that neither ar? ticles nor speeches will produce any effect upon the negroes, and defines its position in these words : "TUE CIIARI.KSTON NEWS says they already feel indirectly the weight of taxation, and de? sire to throw it otr. All t hat is necessary, then, ls to make them leel lt directly^ and this can lie done before the next election, if tho people nf the Stute will adopt the plan proponed; by fork, and require every laborer who works for a share of the crop Lo pay a fair proportion J t if the tax on whatever land he works. This I 1 ivill bring the subject of Radical taxation homo JO tnr.n. ??i r ?) ut a tuna ?finen me; cnn com? prehend. It will produce agitation just where lt is wanted, viz: among themselves. Occupy? ing this position, thq Democratic party can j ilford to wait and let tho medicine work, with )ut exhibiting any extra anxiety to persuade J legr?os to become Democrats." t THE Union Times says : "The actual, bona fide settler from the North ve Invite. Upon his arrival wo will show him )ur lands, tell him of our soil nnd climate, the Y ?atural advantages of our country, and the 1 nlneral deposits and manufacturing Induce- J nents on every side. If his manners and. his i leportment Indicate the gentleman, we will jarry him to our homes and extend to him the .ights of hospitality. And nil this wc will do irithout any reference to his political feelings. Wc will sell him lands at low prices; at prices that will enable him to realize per annum from Ufty to one hundred per cent, on his invest? ment. And above all, we will let him experi ?nce a climate which, taken the year round, s unsurpassed in the world, and a soil that will \ produce almost anything." 1 This is the feeling of the whole State, in I ivhich the ouly proscription is Radical pro? scription-the proscription of all honest mon. We notice that President Jeter, of the Spartanburg and Union Railroad, will trans? port over his Une, at two cents a mile, North? erners who desire to purchase land, and - :hat he will carr)* actual settlers at one cent t i mile, and their baggage at one-third the ? isual rates. THE Columbia Phoenix says : "We have been requested to state that, the resignation of the two professors will not im mediately affect the course of study in thc t University, as Professor Sachtleben's resigna- 1 ion has relation to the end of October-by which time the vacancy may be supplied-and Professor Rivers has signified his willingness , , to remain in the discharge of his duties until | 1 lils successor shall be appointed." We do not assume that the resignation of | ? the distinguished gentlemen named by the Phoenix will affect the course of studies at thc University. The professors who re maiu will doubtless be willing to take charge )f the twenty-five students who opened the I i session. If the people had confidence in thc 1 Roan! of Trustees, the resignation of thc I j ivhole faculty would not affect thc standing if the institution. But the professors to fill the vacant chairs will be appointed by Scott, Sengle, Carduzo A- Co. This, in itself, is enough te cause the University to Ive shunned by the good people of the State.
