United States five-twenty oonda at S6 arc really higher in price than British consols at 92. -A letter from Richmond Virginia says: "The agent here of the Virginia and Tennessee Railroad says that his linc ls dally crowded to the extent of its capacity with negro laborers going South and Southwest. Whatever may be the more re? mote effect of this remarkable exodus, it ls certain that lt saves the negroes and the State from thc quasi famine threatened by the failure of thc crops last summer. -The Paris Moniteur of Saturday states that after the 10th or May next thc privileged admis? sion of cotton fabrics into France, as temporary Importations, will cease. Thc merchants of Bor? deaux held an excited meeting last week, at which speeches were made and resolutions adopt? ed, denouncing commercial treaties, and protest? ing against the abolition ot restrictions on impor? tations in foreign bottoms. -The Paraguay question ls looming up. It ls said there is a proposition now under considera? tion in the Cabinet to renew the offer of media? tion between thc allies and Lopez, and In case thc offer ls not accepted the United States Govern? ment to withdraw ?ts representatives from lite capitals of Brazil and the other allied powers, and dispatch to the scene a sufllcicnt naval force to reinstate Lopez In the possession of his authority. -The Washington letter or Saturday says: "The National Intelligencer died this morning at au carly hour lor thc fourth time. This pitch, however, it is not only dead, but buried, and be? yond resurrection. Its last proprietor, in pen ning its obituary, takes care (?ike Cervantes willi his hero, Don Quixote,) to give ample notice that no more sallies can possibly occur. Thc coast is therefore clear, aud I learn that parties have already arranged lor the Issue or a purely Demo? cratic paper at the metropolis." -There was a balloon ascension at Atlanta, Ga., on New Year's Day, Dr. Gilbert Hasse going np alone, and thc Era tells thc following in rela? tion to it : "When the balloon had reached thc height or about one mile, those who were watch? ing it were horrified to see it explode and col? lapse in thc upper air. For about an hour thc anxiety was very Intense, when, to the astonish? ment of every one, the doctor rode in sound in body. The doctor fell about three miles out or town, and thc only Injury be srtstaiued was a rcw scratches from some bushes tn which he fell." -The publication of tho letter from Berlin, Prussia, or Dr. Gneist, in regard to the Schceppcs, father and son, and their conviction there for forgery, theft, ic., has reopened discussion of thc case of Dr. Paul Schecppe, convicted or murder at Carlisle, Pa. In the Berlin trial, one or thc most Important witnesses was a locksmith whom Paul Schoppe had employed so make the key with which Paul Schoppe robbed his employer's safe, although the locksmith was innocent of Schocppe's purpose In procuring the key. That witness ls now In New York City, and called at the onice of the Staats Zeitnug to corroborate the statement In Professor Gneist's letter, lt is now suspected that the testimonials of character Schecppe pub? lished some weeks ago are forgeries. -Thc Nevada earthquakes, which occurred at the close of 1S?9, were very heavy, tho cart h beiug In a constant tremor for nine hours. The first shock occurred about six o'clock on the evening of December 2T, and lasted ten or fifteen seconds, alarming and arousing thc whole city. Thc shock was preceded by a sort of rumbling sound or very short duration, when down came the malu "quake"' in full force, dcmg conslelerable damage. At about ten o'clock the same evening, when the frightened inhabitants had succeeded in chasing thc pallor from their cheeks and declar? ing that they rather liked earthquakes, came another shock, and there was another grand Btampede for the streets. This shock seemed to come more directly from the west than the first. Between these main shocks there were constant tremors, scarcely amounting to distinct shocks. In fact, from six o'clock Sunday evening until three o'clock Montlay mornlug the eart:? was at rest scarcely ten minutes at a time. A great many ladies were so badly frightened that they fainted; children cried aud clung to the gar? ments of their parents; dogs howled, and the horses and mules in the stables broke their halters, and, crowding together, raised a terrible hubbub. In one hotel up town three ladies fainted at one time; one made n dash to jump ont of a window, while another, in slippers and night clothes, made a break out Into the e rect, with her husband in full chase. In thc big hotel down towu the ladies got into the parlor and held a grand pow-wow, which was about hair prayer meeting and half lt-nutic asylum. At Dayton the shocks were very severe, shaking bot? tles and crockery from thc shelves, and creating a general panic. In Carson City the shocks were also very severe, anil brittle ware liad to sillier. On Six Mile Canon, a short distance above thc Empire State Mill, a boulder weighing some M en tous rolled down oiV the mountain into thc road, where it now lies. In thc vicinity of steamboat Springs thc earthquake seems to have been more severe than i:i any ??her place in thc country. At thc time ut Ute lirst shock jets ?>f water, liftcen or twenty in number, and of great volume, were thrown up to thc height of twenty feet, and dur? ing thc night twenty-six shocks wore felt-tour very heavy ones. Thc minis were not in t'.ie slightest degree injured by the earthquake. Thc no n working below felt thc shock?, but were but little alarmed, nut] com inned working. C limntc and Immigration. Thc South liai a;i advantage over other sections of the Union which no misgovcm nient can neutralize-a benignant cli? mate Elsewhere winter arrests the opera rations of Hie working man. The mechanic is housed or sutlers terribly. The mill-wheel io frozen by the stream upon which its revo? lutions depend. The lieMs arc locked up by frost or imbedded in a thick pall of snow. '.Tho ruler of the inverted year paralyzes industry Itv the touch of Iiis icy sceptre. Cut ail thc while with us, the mellow earth, the kindly heavens, the unchained exulting streams, minister to the wants of men. A few brisk winds, .a few frosty niorninjrs, ti few sharp bracing day?, are all the rigors of winter that we know-if rigors be indeed the name for that salutary discipline which girds thc loins ami tightens the sinews for the labors of the advancing year. The con? trast only serves to lend a charm to the gra? cious season, which, like the Scandinavian mother, tosses her nursling into thc snow wreath only that she may take him back, thrilling and all aglow, to the warmth and refreshment of her bounteous breast. Thank God ! wc have something that Congress can? not reconstruct, that a motley Legis? lature with its musky exhalationscannot be? cloud or befoul, that Scott. Kimpton & Co. cannot "bull"' up or "bear" down-some? thing inalienably our own .'These days so sweet, so calm, so bright The bridal of tile earth and sky !" This advantage which we have enjoyed without realizing how great it is, is begin? ning to exercise its just influence, aud will contribute more and more, in thc years to come, toward our prosperity. First the spoils of war invited adventurers, who Hock? ed Southward, like buzzards, to feed upon the dead carcass of slavery. Of these ob? scene birds we have had more than our share. Then caine invalids, like Mr. Derby and Mr. Weed, in quest of health. Then caine self indulgent retainers, like Mrs. Stowe, athirst for oranges. Then came capitalists, covet? ous of cotton. Soon we shall have an im? portant and limiterons addition to our popu? lation in the immigration o? laboring men from-Europe. Already many of the English artisans are petitioning the government for the use of thc national vessels to transport them to the tropical colonies f.. the Empire. Eut these islands cannot compete with a continent. When once the tide has fairly set in, it will seek America. And in all America there arc no fields so iuviting as those whose white lleece have clothed the nakedness of the world-no clime so pro? pitious as that which "warms in thasun and "refreshes in the breeze" above us and around us, and makes thc dreariest season of out year the bland harbinger of spring. Mr. Cornell, of Ithaca, New York, has recently imported some English builders into that city. Of these, one of the most intelli? gent has written several letters to thc Lon? don Spectator, giving his impressions in re? gard to this country. He finds thc wages of labor higher here than in England, cvci rela? tively, although the expense of living is also higher. Food ls more abundant, bat willi less variety from meal to meal and from day to day. Clothing is coarser. Thc ale is scant and poor, and the whiskey deadly. Eut the great trouble is the climate. His fellow workmen are obliged to betake them? selves to some other employment than their proper business during the se? vere months of winter. They become glass-blowers, wheelwrights, hunters, team? sters and the like. And the resu't is that the quantity and quality of lite work done is sensibly affected, according to thc old saw, "a jack of all trades is good at none." The letters are very suggestive, and to us very encouraging. For we have more than the physical advantages of Hie North, and in addition, enjoy the generous climate for which the frost-bitten artisan is yearning. Thc system of slavery, which he was taught to regard as a degradation of labor, has perished. The arts of unprincipled mcu who have subsisted upon social disorder are losing tiieir power. Thus thc main obsta? cles to immigration have disappeared or aro disappearing. We shall soon have a fair field for industrial competition with thc Northern States. No fear for thc result ! We can offer to capitalist and laborer work for every month in the year, from January to December-gliding water wheels, when the wheels of the North are locked with ice; free rivers, when the rivers of the North are frozcu ; open roads and clear fields, when at thc North the whole country is one unbro? ken drift of snow; a winter balmier than a Northern spring. The Northern game of abolition is played out; that sentiment which was capital has dissipated its resources; that policy which made Mason's and Dixon's Line a Chinese wall to the foreign immigrant has i overreached itself. Anti now thc way Southward is open, and the people and the lund invite ! We shall have laborers from Europe be? yond all question. And wc shall, as cer? tainly, draw them from the North and the' Northwest. WE hoped that the resolution of inquiry into thc management of the affairs of the Elue Ridge Railroad Company would be adopt? ed. The public want to know, among other things, why 875,000 was paid to the con? tractors for doing S1500 worth of work. SEK.VTOU LESLIE vows and declares that "Democrats will steal." Well, Mr. Leslie wa3 a Democrat himself, until it. became more profitable to din thc cloak of llepubli caniem._ _ Ax attempt is making to upset the Land Commissioner, and to have, in his gracious stead, a land commissioner for each coun? ty. But Leslie is '-an honest man !" IF Senator Corbin doe3 really want to know who "Free Trude" is, we doubt not that his curiosity, it: tbat particular, can be easily gratified. The City Extension Bill. We print this morning the concluding sections of thc Charleston Extension bill. This bill, if passed, will injure every capital? ist anti every workingman in Charleston. The enlargement of the city will add lo the city expenditures, and this must he met by additional taxation, wbicli will be felt by all classes. If the Radicals want an election in April next, they can have it. They can turn out Mayor Pillsbury without increasing the cost of the city government There is no justifi? cation for orgies like that at tho Guard? house yesterday, when hundreds of dollars were spent in regaling the City Fathers and the city policemen. But when Charleston is extended to the "Six Mile House, " or lo the limits of the old Parish of St. Philip's, there must be more taxes, higher rents, a further depreciation of real estate, and a greater in? ability to meet the municipal liabilities. A ru mor ls abroad that the Radicals de? sire to crush out Charleston, because of thc "rebellious temper" of ils people. The tirst blow may conic h the shape of this bill to ex? tend the limits of the city. t'ost ano .found.
