The Sun ofthat city says: "As the procession moved along, the vehicles creaked and groaned,, the horses strained and sweated, whUe the hage Germans reposed in ?calm solidity, and gazed forth complacently -upon those less gifted In the matter of flesh. . Before the destination was reached Ave horses - gave in, hopelessly exhausted, and ten of the vehicles broke down. In spite of the delight? ful coolness of the weather, the supply of table? cloths with which the members were provided Xor the mopping of perspiration from their massive brows failed, and a fresh lot had to be procured on their arrival at (he Gardens. The subjoined is a schedule of nourishment, solid and liquid, consumed during the procession and at the picnic: 1519 kegs of lager, 1827 bushels of clams, 17 pretzels, 305 gallons of Rhine wine, 211 pounds of schweitzer kaese, , 193 pounds of sausages, and 21,599 cigars." . -A. Washington letter to the Cincinnati Commercial says: "Some years since a gentle? man in this city married a widow lady, who had one child, a girl of ardozen years. At the time. of the marriage the husband's newly acquired step-daughter was sent out ol town .?o a boarding school, the couple not desiring * liny embarrassment upon entering upon the new state of marital happiness. After being away for five or six years, the girl returned to town &nd to her parents' house, hading now grown to bo an accomplished j?nd beautiful young lady. Presently lt was evident that her atep-fiither had fallen desperately in love with her. Her mother, or his wife, very soon saw thc situation, and after a brief struggle with herself, prepared to accept its unfort^anatc-con aequenoes. Terrible to relate, having procured a divorce for herself, she permitted her hus .hand to marry her daughter, to whom she also gave over a young child which she had borne during her Becond wedlock. She continued to live in the house as thc friend to all the par? ties; but lt soon happened to be the ex-wife's turn to be courted by another aspirant for her hand, to whom she was, after a time, married* Both of the parties and all parties continue to . dwell together in one household, all the de? tails of the affair, from beginning to enclav? ing been arranged satisfactorily and without ? the least misunderstanding. Is not this a fearful incident as well as a queer one ?" ' -The Hudson Rive? Railroad Company in Nefr York has Just adopted the English meth? od of giving locomotives water, a method at once novel and very efficient, and practicable on other railroads. The company recently, constructed at Montrose station a trough In the centre or the track, twelve hundred feet In length, fifteen inches in depth, and eighteen Inches wide, and caused it to be lined with sheet; iron, heavily painted.. This trough ls perfectly straight throughout the entire twelve hundred feet. A short distance to the north and east of it is a spring which supplies it with water, the trough holding - 16,000 gallons, whictrcan be lot into it at will. A locomotive was next takcG from the road and put in th shop, where in a quiet manner skilful me chanicssoon titted her out-with an ingeniously formed pipe, curling from the man-hole in the tender down through the latter to a position Inside of the hind trucks, where the pipe forms a tvalf-eircle, at the end of which is the nozzle, which a'.ways points the way the en? gine goes. Fastened to this nozzle is an iron bar, which connects with a bar from a point near the fireman's box, by which, when the locomotive comes to the trough, the nozzle or pipe can be dropped instantaneously into the water, while the train is running at thc rate of thirty miles an hour. Thc nozzle sinks to only a depth of two inches in thc trough, yet, even at that depth, when the one thousand feet is passed over, one thousand six hundred and thirty-four gdlons of water will be found in thc tender. Thc Happy Family. The Charlton Radicals seem to bo hav? ing a lively time of it in their Ward meet? ings, and some of the Papas and Mammas of the Party threaten the political Happy Fam? ily willi a sudden dissolution. Part of this feeling is du?}, no doubt, to what is knowt as "incompatibilityof temper," but themain reason p"obably is, that thc colored voters are tired of sustaining corrupt men, who give them more kicks than dollars. This vein of thought cropped out at the "Mass Meeting of Republicans" held in Morris street on Thursday night, when Land Com? missioner De Large, while deprecating dissen? sion in the party, uttered the home truth, that "many men are Rqablicans because it "is prMtable." This hi I? dowed up by warn? ing "the white men in the party" that if they think that "the Republican party was "made for them, for their special benefit, "they are badly mistaken." After^squelch ing with this wet blanket the fiery zeal of some of the new converts who hunger after the political loaves and fishes, thc Land Commissioner said: "TAere arv bad men among our State officers, and they car. remove me as soon as they please for saying sc. Why is it that wc colored men have become identified with the Republican party? Is it because there is a loadstone which attracts and holds us there; or is it be? cause we are deluded and follow blindly cer? tain men? No! WejoiucdUilspajtybecau.se it professed equal right and privileges to all, and as long as they do as they profess I stay with them. We thought, on the ground of ex? pediency, we must do nothing to offend them, but some Impudent scoundrels in the party now say : Tou want too much; you want everything.!' We placed them In position; wc elected them, and by our votes we made them our masters. We noio propose to change this thing a litttt, and let them vote for us. It is no more than reasonable they should do so. When a colored man is capable of filling an office, I say give it to him; and I shall fight this over thc entire State. This movement has not beeil made without consultation. You will find no intelligent colored man who is not with me. Some ]>aHies thought tliey had worked tlteir own schemes, but we worked too. There is not a prominent colored man in this State frho is not pledged to stand by the doctrine which I pronounce." These aro bold words, but they were ?choed by A. J. Ransicr, thc County Audi? tor, who asked, very pointedly, "whether "the colored men had been fairly treated," 3 eel ari ng that he and his friends assert ;heir claims to office "not because they are ' colored, but because theg are menJL Con Linuiug this line of argument, he sairP ^Though we dread the issue, it must come. It nay drive colored men in South Carolina to c ake a stand which may ruin the ship. I t herefore warn you of the Issue to be made in c he next campaign," . These- remarks of County Auditor Ransier j ^ vere listened to, we are told, with deep at ention, and were loudly applauded. Major Delaney came next, and announced hat neither Governor Scott nor "any other 'man" can lead black men. At the same ime, he protested that he had no idea of 1 fl orming "a black man* party," although he j, vanted it understood that the colored roters "want a fair share of the offices, ilajor Delaney kindly consented to forego 'a colored Governor," but ho was deter? mined to have a colored Lieutenaut-Goveru >r, three colored^Congressman, (ono Seuator \ ind two Representatives,) and the just quota t >f State and county offices. The Congres? sional districts which he wauts black men ,o represent are the Second (Bowen's) and he Third (Hoge's. ) This speech, also, was, ive presume, vociferously applauded. 11 How Crops Peed. Agricultural inquirers have long been di? vided in opinion as to the substances which ire necesf tary to perfect vegetation ; one . ? ichool under the lead of Bo uss i uga ult, J Maintaining that nitrogenous food is neccs lary to plants, and must be supplied in ex :css of what the soil and air furnish, or we :annot get any satisfactory results from our and ; the other, supporting the theory of liebig, who allows slight value to the stiin llating or creative influence of nitro^y in he form of nitrates or ammonia, but be ieves that, with a proper supply ol phospho ?ic acid and saine food, plants can attain to i maximum production. A very interesting work, recently pub ished, under the titreV'How Crops Feed," jives a condensed and well arranged ac :ount^of many experiments which have been ,ried, bearing on this subject, and the re? mits recorded in the transactions of pt?ilo ?ophical societies not accessible to the gene? ral reader, or even to most hard students. Some singular results appear in these exper? iments. Analyses of soils show, for instance, that, in a given acre of land, there may be 50,000 pound.3 of potash; on this acre, divi? ded into nine lots, barley was cultivated, and manured with potash salts in different amounts, C tf?*'282 pounds. The crop was | ^ carefully saved and measured, aud it was fouud that the largest "amount came from the plot to which 71 poSlfcs of potash wa3 applied ; up to that amount the crop w*as less according to thc potash used, and there | ( was no more yield ev^jj. with double or tre? ble the dose of manure. It seems to tho casual thinker impossible that on au acre of laud containing uiauy thousaud pouuds ol' any particular substance, the crop /can feel the presence of a few pouuds appliSct as ma? nure; but every experiment shows that it is 30, and that when nitrogenous manures are 11 used, we may almost predict the crop from the amount of the manure applied. The author, Professor Johnson, shows au- 1 other interesting fact by quoted experiments, t and by some of his own, that vegetation de pends'less on the obvious moisture of the soil tor its support, thaa is commonly sup posed ; there is what he calls hygroscopic moisture, which is so., intimately blended with, or adherent to, the particles of soil, as to be removable only by the solicitation of tae plants themselves, or by extreme beat; from this moisture plants seem to procure their actual food, the large amount of water absorbed by the roots and exhaled through the leaves appearing to make very little difference to Hie growth of the individual plant. Experiments show that the roots of the plants not only have some discriminat? ing power, but also that by their vital force they can affect the chemical relations of C8ft mineral elements, and can sever combina? tions and. create new alliances, between dis? similar substances, quite beyond the power of man. Some of tlie experiments recorded by Pror fessor Johnson show very clearly the im? portance of good fanning and a perfect dis? integration of the soil, as an aid to the chemical changes going on all the time. No matter how much manure may be applied by man or furnished by the elements, unless it can be held for the use of plants, they would receive but very little benefit from it; the quick rush of water after a shower through the earth, even if loaded with the wealth of a manure heap, would be too rapid to bene? fit any growing plant, but the earth, accord? ing to the amount of humus or clay it con? tains, and in proportion to the fineness of its particles, can instantly separate out and ab? sorb into itself whatever of value there is in pas?ing water. By keeping one's land in good tilth, by adding peat, clay and straw, we create a sponge which will hold incredi? ble amounts for the supply of future crops. _ A "Whopper. The published statement that Major Gary, of Edgefield, In the Reform Convention, de? clared that "he saw no difference between "Scott and Carperfter," and that "he would "jost as eoon vote for Scott as to vote for "Carpenter," is scandalously untrue from beginning to end. The writer of this para? graph was present during the entire session of the Convention, and knows, of his own knowledge, that neither the words quoted nor any others of similar meaning were ut? tered by the gentleman in question. The Maternent that he did so is, we are constrain? ed lo believe, a wanton and wilful falsehood. Flanco ! The "Grand Republican Mass Meeting," lield in Columbia on Wednesday night, was i jolly failure. Governor Scott, Attorney Seneral Chamberlain, Beverley Nash, and Miter notables were announced as speakers, )ut they did not put in an appearance, and he crowd had to make the best of such ?mall fry as H?ge, Dunbar and Worthington. This will not do. Unless the Ring make a ?how of light, it will be poor fun to defeat .hem. - ?? I So, GOVERNOR SCOTT, according to his or? ran, finds the duties of hisofllce too engross ng to allow him to meet the champions of ieform upon thc 3tump! Really, the people nust hasten to relieve the Ohio Doctor of i )olit?cal anxieties, and allow him to go quiet- ' y back to his pills and potions. A second } erm might endanger bis Excellency's health, i "NEVER give up the Ship!"-that is, the :adetship ! Whitteraore already announces j hat he is to bo a candidate for the Forty- j iccond Congress. In truth, Radicalism, as ? t exista in South Carolina, could not have a nore titting representative. ? A RADICAL sheet says, by authority, that - 'whoever announces him (Governor Scott) 'to make a public speech will know, hercaf- J 'ter at lea3t, that he (who ?) is perpetrating i i fraud." Aud Governor Scott wili know, 1 lereafter at least, that Him what prigs what Isn't his'n. When he's coiched will go to pris'n. 1 TIIK Newberry Herald, the Bennettsville j Tournai and the Camden Journal hoist the j inion Reform banner, and set the names of . he Reform candidates at the head of their lolumns. ? New Books. J >R0 ARIS ET FOCJS. (A Plea for our Altars and Homes.) By thc author of "Waiting for the Verdict," ?tc. New York: Virtue Si Yor- ? ston. The question discussed by the author of j his interesting work (republis! ed from the ? Snglish edition) is, What is the rifest fittiug J phere of woman's activity, and what can be I lone by women to preserve and increase tho ! mrity, peace and power for good of our 1 litare and our hordes ? The author attacks he new-fangled pleas for the so-called 'woman's rights;" shows whaj arc the real . md the demanded rights of woman ; what . roman should be at her hearth, and might ? ie in public; compares male and female < ?haracter and intellect, and weighs their dative Btrongth; and boldly states what roman's real end aud aim in life ia, and vhat is deemed worthy of au ambitious i roman's desire or pursuit. As the motlftr ind trainer of coming generations, as the i iel per at id stimulator of th.king men - corking through them for the glory and veil-being of humanity-woman is in a jrander position than if Ftntiding in the narktil place, loudly proclaiming her virtues, ier talents or her rights. The whole book s glowingly and earnestly written in a large md Christian spirit, and the author appeal warmly to her fellow-women to be pursuad ;d that the worthy rearing of children, the .aising of debased classes and the results irising from both, are the noblest of works, [t is a generous and a healthy work, and ?rill, we hope, find thottsauds of readers. ?.The typography of "Pro Ari3 and Focis" s very good, and the paper is excellent For sale at Fogartie's Book Repository, in the jend of King street.

We beg leave respectfully to call the attention of the public to our Superior Flavoring Extracts. As ten years have now elapsed since we first in? troduced them to the notice of the American pub? lic, we deem lt unnecessary at present to enter into a lengthy description of their merits, Ac. There ls hardly a elty or town or any note in the country Into which they have not found thebr way. The reason of this widespread popularity and daily Increasing demand ls owing entirely to their peculiar excellence and intrinsic worth. Being determined to make them the Standard Ex? tracts of the dav, we have still further improved t'leir quality, and now we tlrmly and honestly be l eve that they stand without a rival. Our Vanilla E.'tract cannot be surpassed for richness and delicacy of tlavor. It ls a strictly pore an? Llgh .y concentrated Extract of Vanilla Heals, in short, we think lt tuc best that is made, at least, this ls the decision of the best judges in the coun? try. We don't pretend to conqu?te In price with many of the so-called Flavorings Extracts of tti?T day, which are really but worthless compounds, undeserving of the name. + ,,t For quail'., aud style, we defy competition.
