It ts ab|Ul seventy miles northeast of . ! flcations surrounding it form a vast camp, ' capable of containing one hundred thousand I men,- and combine the systems of Carnot and MonUilembert. ' Four forts protect it on the left bank of the Ehlne. These fortifica? tions, with the Fortress of Ehrenbreitstein, were over twenty years in rebuilding, after the downfall of Napoleon, and cost some $5, 000,000. The principal strength of the city lies in Ehrenbreitstein (honor's broad stone,) a village and fortress situated on a large rock which towers above everything for miles around. . It 1B impregnable to assault on three sides, but on the northwest it is considerably exposed. Four hundred heavy guns are mount? ed In the fortress, and these sweep the Rhine in all directions, and the road to Nassau. On the top of the rock is a great platform which ser ves as a parade-ground, and which covers large arched cisterns, supplied with water by springs without the walls, and capable of con? taining a three years' supply of the liquid. There is also a well, sunk 400 feet in the rock, communicating with the Rhine. It is not thought that any attempt will be made by the French to take Coblenz by a direct attack, but a Sank movement to drive the Prussians irom the place will doubtless be essayed. Reform In the Up-Country Tho candidates of the Reform party, ac? companied by that gallant soldier, General J. B. Kershaw, have been received in the up-country with unbounded enthusiasm. At Bickens Courthouse, on Monday, at Pen? dleton, on Tuesday, and at Anderson Court? house on Wednesday, the people were pro? fuse in their expressions of approval of the principles and plan of the Reform canvass; and the convincing arguments of the elo? quent speakers, while they proved the nec? essity of Reform, satisfied their attentive hearers that they were laborers in a patriotic work, in which all good men Bhould actively engage for the welfare and benefit of the State. General Kershaw, who was the first speak? er, explained the reasons which led him to become ao h oar ty a supporter of the Reform movement, and made a forcible exposi? tion of its platform, as one upon which all honest men might stand for the redemption of South Carolina. Gen? eral Butler, who spoke next, exposed, in barning, words, the rascalities of the Biog, and brought against Governor Scott a-series of specific charges, any one of which, while they stand uncontradicted, is enough to brand the Ring candidate as a man wholly unworthy of public confidence or pri? vate trust Judge Carpenter, who closed thc speaking, showed the consistency of his conduct as a Republican, and made an earn? est appeal for that harmony of race and class, without which the State cannot pros? per. The speeches, of which we print a full re? port, are worthy of the distinguished gen? tlemen who delivered them, and of the broad and liberal principles of the Union Reform party. They will convince all but thOBe who, like the idols of the Egyptians, have eyes and see not, have ears and will not hear. The canvass opens well. Let it be push? ed to a hapoy conclusion. The Last New Burlesque. This is the age of burlesque. Neither Shakespeare nor Boker is safe. The facile pen of the parodying writer makes fun alter? nately of the sorrows ot Werther and the agonies of the dime novel, and the wide range, of popular subjects - social, lyrical and dramatic-is sifted diligently and dex? terously in the interest of public kudos and private pence. One class of topics has, it is true, failed to receive its doe share of the burlesquer's attention. Political characters abd political platforms have not been done into verse' for public delectation. The op? portunity was not- wanting. Our smoky Cosar at Long Branch, the antics of Con? gress, the beauties Of Reconstruction-these were themes upon which the barlesqaers would naturally seize. But they did not They allow the opportunity to escape them of shooting folly as it flies, and leave it to a notorious Congressman-not a member of the literary* guild-to give to the world lt living, shining example of a political burlesque. This burlesque is-the so-called platform of the so-called Republican party of South Car? olina; and the burlesquer is no less a person than B. F. Whittemore, the twice elected, and doubly disgraced, member or tbe Na? tional Legislature from the First Congres? sional District Whittemore, as all the people know, re? signed his seat in Congress, and so, with the sid of Governor Scott avoided an ignomin? ious expulsion. Congress declared bim un? worthy to represent the people, bat, happily for him, his constituents could not read, and did not know the difference between a cadet ship and an ocean steamer. Whittemore wis re-elected, and Congress flatly Refused to! receive bim. Away he buzzed, with a merry,.merry hom', to' poor South Carolina, putting in an appearance at Columbia just at the time of holding the State Radical Con? tention to which ho wa3 a worthy delegate, ^tewinga just appreciation of the more than Roman virtue of the Congressman who sold un office' within his gift- aa a representative of : the people, and who is charged with stealing $5000 from Mr. Shaw, of Boston, the convention appointed Whittemore the chairman of the committee on credentials. Who,, of the Ring, might not enter in while Whittemore held the key ? He was then ap? pointed chairman of the committee on plat? form, and, in that capacity; submitted to the convention a platform, or declaration of principles, which, as printed in our issue or yesterday, was unanimously adopted. It was necessary, in the first place, that Whittemore should soft-sawder President Girant, and give Congress a big dose of praise,. This must be done to strengthen w'hittemore'a^ame ir, perchance, his be? nighted constituents should elect bim for the third time. Tl.'. ?xplains the fact that, on the threshold of a purely local canvass, three of the seven resolutions bf whi-.:ii the Radical platform consists, are exclusively addressed to questions of national policy. This being; done, in real en nest, for the benefit of Whit? temore, that, untiring intriguer gave rein to hts fancy. aud .perpetrated the heaviest joke of the age. No one. would dare to suppose that Mr. Whittemore was jesting, when he framed that portion of the Radical party platform Which refers to the Fifteenth, amendment ?ndtb?'Clvil Right? bill. The TTJmon Re? form party recognae that Amendment and that Bill as the law ot the land, and will obey them in letter and spirit . Even Mr. Whitemore can do no. more, jj however.: ie may "hail with'gratitude" what the Reform? ers accept as a fact, and however he may pledge "a firm, fearless and unfaltering sup "port" to what the Reformers acknowledge as a law to which, while it stands unrepeal ecl, every citizen owes obedience. The fun begins when Whittemore, for the Radical Ring, endorses "the administration of Gov "ernor Scott, as wise, economical and hon "est" How Whittemore must have chuckled as he wrote .tb>?e saucy words: Wise! Economical ! -"Honest ! This wisdom, thi3 economy, this honesty, are defined by Gen? eral Butler and General Kershaw and Judge Carpenter, in their speeches delivered at Pickens Courthouse, as Folly, Extravagance and Theft. And Whittemore knows all this just as well as the white people know it, but then "his constituents can't read," and his work is only a burlesque. But when Whit? temore declared that the party insisted on "a continuance of strict and close economy "in all departments of the government," he 1 may have told the truth. A "strict and "close economy," like that of the last two years, would make the Ring millionaires, and enable Whittemore to snap his fingers at the sale of $500 cadetships. If the Whittemore platform is not distress? ingly fanny, what is it ? The alternatives are plain. Whittemore was either poking sarcasm at the Ring, or he was telling a de? liberate untruth. Yet the man who can sell a cadetship, and argue that the crime was justified by the use said to have been made of the price of his shame, might well pick the pockets of the citizens of the State, upon the plea that carrying purses was unhealthy in hot weather. The man who can sit quietly down under the specific charge that he stole $5000 from a mercantile house in Boston, may give his hearty approval to the administration of Governor Scott. These are whitewashing times. Judas Iscariot is treated as the victim of ill-timed zeal and misplaced confidence, rather than as the be? trayer of his Lord. Whittemore may be re? garded by the Ring as a martyr, whose only fault was his detection. And Whittemore returns the favor in kind. After all, Whittemore was well chosen to chisel out the epitaph of the Ring. Such a man was best fitted to praise the gang of adventurers who treble the public debt, make taxation burdensome beyond endur? ance, prevent immigration, leave the re? sources of the State undeveloped, and neg? lect the education of the people. Such a man was best fitted to eulogize the nominee of the Ring-R. K. Scott-who, after his election, told General Wade Hampton that "he wished the Stale lo go Democratic,'" that he was "tired of the negroes," and that "he "would make enough of them resign to give "the whites a majority in the Legislature." This damning statement was made by Gene? ral Butler, at Pickens Courthouse, on Mou day last. The platform of the RiDg is made up of equal proportions of broad burlesque (or utter falsehood) and glittering generalities about accomplished facts. There is nothing in it, outside of its unqualified approval of Gene? ral Grant, which deserves consideration; nor does it contain one catching appeal to the voters of the State. The platform is worthy of Whittemore, and Whittemore is a conge? nial companion to Ransier and Scott "The Call to Arms.' It is announced, with a blustering air, that the "sensational statements" of this paper will not prevent the organizing and arming of the State militia This is more than we expect if not more than we desire. All that we claim is that the white compa? nies of volunteers should not be systematical? ly rejected by Governor Scott, while the col? ored companies are systematically accepted, and no questions asked. This conduct, taken in connectfon with other facts which have been made public, is a sufficient proof | that it is intended to use the militia for an illegal purpose-for the purpose of overaw? ing the white and colored voters who stand in opposition to the Ring. This being the condition of affaira, we call upon the white people to make ready-with or without a militia organization-to defend at the polls their own rights and the rights of the color? ed men who support them. We want no riot or insurrection. All that we demand is, a fair election, and no intimidation. And this we intend to have. WE ARE requested to give notice that Judge Carpenter, General Butler and Gene? ral Kershaw will speak at Cokesbury, on the Greenville and Columbia Railroad, on Satur? day night next. On Saturday morniDg they speak at Abbeville Courthouse. THE Ring, who insist that the Reform Party make specific charges against Gover? nor Scott, will, perhaps, be satisfied with the "specific charges" contained in General But? ler's speech delivered at Pickens Courthouse, on Monday. " Dare Scott deny the truth of | these charges ? . Now that Governor Scott is renominated, will he meet his opponents on tho stump, or will he skulk in the rear and leave this work to be done by his lieutenant, A. J. Ransier? _go Rent._ HOUSES, FARMS, STORES, ROOMS, Ac, now vacant, can readily be rented by advertising them m this column.

We beg leave respectfully to call the attention of the public to our Superior Flavoring Extracta. 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 eity or town of any note in.the country into which they have not found their way. The reason of this widespread popularity and dally increasing demand ls owing entirely to their peculiar excellence and Intrinsic worth. Being determined to make them the Standard Ex? tracta of the day, we have still hrtoteowl their Quality, and now we firmly and honestly be Uevethat they stand without a rival. Our Vanilla Extract cannot be surpassed for richness and delicacy of flavor. It ls a strictly pure?and high iv concentrated Extract of Vanilla Beana. In short we think it the best that is made, at least, this l? the decision of the best judges in the coun? try We don't pretend to compete in price with many of the so-caUed Flavoring Extracts of tba day. which are really but worthless Compounds, undeserving of the name. For quauty and style, we defy competition.
