' -A letter "has been received from Mr. Max Guggenheimer, of Lynchburg, Va., now on a tour In Europe, stating that he had been ar? rested at Augsburg, in Prussia, for a French spy. Having served as a soldier in the Con federate army, Mr. Ouggenhelmer experienc? ed some curiosity lu-the prussian preparations for the war. and passing through the cars; in speoted carefully some- of the- needle-guns In the hands of the' privates. ?

Tbhis denied by^'ths Germans as to. Baron Ger cdt, although, lt may be . true as. to one or moro of the^ODQun consuls. From what can be learned, both th?

C., conditioned upon the donation of a suitable spot of ground for the purpose, and thaxeUnqutehmont-by the State o? any claim to Us oontroU !Ot course time was required to comply with these conditions, but they were all met so-far as the people or State of South Caro? lina were concerned.

The.Colombia people, with their real estate, find themselves situated similarly to the Imitan agent who found a dam by a mill alte, b ?t'n o m il 1 by a dam site." -A Berlin letter ttf.thi ifew York Times* mentions that business In that city ls at on en tire, atand-aiili Al moat Immediately after, the fact became known that war would be lnevit* abie, Uio Boya? Baak of Pr, ussla'ralw? lae rate : - ix!*a y ti . ' ..'..*'. ' ?"J.?/.1;.; ' of discount from four to ehjht per cent. This proceeding caused the spread of intense alarm, and excited apprehension of coming danger. To add to the confusion among the people, in? tercommunication -had been stopped at all points; letters which formerly reached their ^destination in twelve hours, do not now arrive In less than forty; the railroads have ali been placed In the hands of the military authorities, and a genecal and unruly commotion every where prevails. The exodus ot strangers has Jibeen unlversal^aad in a few dayj, when the remaining military must go, to the iront, the numerous large hotels " unter den Linden" will be entirely deserted. The theatres for the most part are closed, some maintain a fee bleexiatence and must shortlyfollow; all other places, of amusement are equally deserted .This is a peculiar hardship, since Berlin has a pleasure-loving community outnumbering that in most other cities. n -The scene at the circus at Kingston, N.lr., on Thursday, where five persons wore killed by a single stroke of lightning, is represented as being Intensely dramatic. The tent was crowded, and the voice ot the clown, getting off his stale Jokes, was drowned by the peals of thunder, while vivid and blinding flashes of lightning lit up the pallid races of the crowd Suddenly a peal of thunder shook the very earth, while the whole air seemed filled with a sulphurous smell The band played its loud? est, the clown performed frantically, and the performing horses went through their tricks to prevent a rush .and consequent trampling to death. Meanwhile the fatal shaft of light? ning had descended on the outside, and striking a group of colored persons near a tree, killed* five of them instantly. They were struck d?wa with smiles on their lips All in the vicinity were struck dumb and un? conscious,, twenty-five persons being knocked down and severely injured. Hundreds under the main tent are said to have been partially paralyzed by the shock. One man had a part of his coat torn away; another had lost the ? rim of his hat. and dozens were almost uncon? scious. They sat like statues, and there was a gaze of vacancy in their eyes that was fright? ful to look upon. Friends shook them and urged them to go, but they moved not, appar? ently dumb. Never, says the correspondent of the Standard, (who is responsible for this story,) were such frightful results of a stroke j of lightning recorded before. Dirty Work. The sad notoriety which he has gained by [ his connection with the Land Commission, - and by his arithmetical gymnastics at Ches? ter, does not satisfy the public greed of Mr. Attorney-General Chamberlain. It is ne? cessary that Mr. Chamberlain should work lustily to save himself and his fellows from political extinction, but, if we mistake not, President Grant will be sorely chagrined to find that he has, for the nineteenth time, been hoodwinked aod humbugged by an unscrupulous politi? cian. The President of the United States may, with perfect propriety, correct a statement which would put a false color upon bis sen timents and opinions; but President Grant, j j addicted though he be to startling sensa tions, will not thank any one for causing bim to commit himself publicly to the sup? port of a clique of adventurers who disgrace the name of Republicanism, and who have been denounced and condemned by the most influential organs of the National party. Nor , should his fiasco in North Carolina encour- J age the President to invite a similar defeat j in this State. On the 4th of August, General M. C. But? ler, the candidate of the Union Reform party j for Lieutenant-Governor of South Carolina, ' dgjiseted a iteeecfc--??- Spartan^org-- Court- ' house, in this State. A Radical paper pub? lished at that place, in its report of the meeting, said that General Butler made use of the following language: "When a few days since I visited the capital for the purpose of having my political disabilities removed, and called on that great soldier-hero, General Grant,'did he say nay ? Not at all. He said go back home and beat Governor Scott, for he ls no Republican." ' No such words appeared in the report I made by THE NEWS, nor. so far as we know, . / in the report of our contemporary, the c Courier. But Mr. Chamberlain, unwilling - to lose an opportunity of distinguishiug him- j self in a bad cause, wrote at once to Pre3i- | dent Grant, asking him, "on behalf of our "party," whether there was any truth in the statement. After the letter was written, perhaps before, Mr. Chamberlain was an? swered by General Butler that "he did not ' 'use the language attributed to him. " This should have tiel the hands, and sealed the lips, of au honorable adversary. President Grant received the letter of Mr. i Chamberlain, and made a prompt reply, in * which he says '-he did not use the language J( "attributed to him by General Butler. * This 1 was the plain truth. Generai Grant did not \ ase that language, nor has General Butler j said that he did. The careless, if not mali- i cions, reporting of the Sparenburg Radical. ? paper was the only authority for the state-11 mont, and of this circumstance Mr. Cham be ri ai u was perfectly well aware. Yet Mr Chamberlain prints thr tetter of President Grant, leaving it, with a half contradiction, to convict, if it could, a dreaded political op? ponent of downright untruthfulness. . Notwithstanding his praoK3 on Wadma law, some years ago, we had hoped better th inga of .Mr. Chamberlain. It is only too evident now that lie is quite capable of do ing his full share of the dirty work of "the I c "party." ' \\ Thc Way thc Honey Goes. c \ When the act to organize the State mili-1? tia was put in operation, Miss Kate Rawlins, a comely mulatto woman, (sister ot Mrs. l Whipper, we believe,) was appointed by t General Moses to bo a clerk, or, an assistant e of some kind, in the military bureau, with a 1 salary of $75 a month. The appointment was made by order of his Excellency Gov srnor Scott, whose-flying trips from Colum? bia to Charleston with the same Miss Raw? lins, two year3 ago, were noticed in the pub? ic prints. For the first nine niontiis the lew appointee received, with commendable egularity, her pay of two dollars and a half a. day; but about three mouths ago the sala? ry was increased to S100 a month. Will General Moses inform the public whether this young lady of color has ac- s tually done a week's work in the department ? since her appointment? We are told that General Mo3es lias been heard to say that jj she has not done a day's clerical work iu ? twelvemonths. This spiteful remark may, however, be accounted for by the circu?a-jj,1 stance that the private assistant of General Moses (also a mulatto woman) draws no c] salary.

Fifty thousand dollars was ap? propriated by.the General Assembly for car? rying out the provisions of the Militia law, and we are informed that, ia one way or another, the whole of the money is spent, Miss Rawlins having her share. Has that appropriation of $30,000 been exhausted? How was the money spent ? Is the militia orgauized? What of the 3100 a month to Miss Raw? lins? And how many more such cases are we going to bring to light before we have done with the Bing? Information Wanted. Secretary Cardozo is a member of the Land Commission, and a defender of the Scott Ring. Was he not a poor man wh?n he came to Columbia, only a few years ago? He ha3 prospered. Has built a house at considerable expense. It is known that lands iu Georgetown and lands on John's Island have been sold to the State-more of those blessed lands for the landless-at the urgent solicitation of Secre? tary Cardozo. Is he now willing for all the facts and figures to be given to the public ? There are audible murmuro upon the mat? ter, of these rapidly-accumulated fortunes, and they come from both races, and from the most honest Republicans. A NOTABLE instance of the marked influ? ence of the war upon newspaper circulation is to be found in the case of the New York German News, a peony sheet, which though started but four months ago, is said to have already attained ? circulation of over fifty thousand copies a day.

We beg leave respectfully to call the attention of the public to our Superior Flavoring Extracts. As ten years have now elapsed since we nra: in? troduced them to the notice of the American pub? lic, we deem lt unnecessary at present to enter tato a lengthy description of their merits, Ac. There ls hardly a elty or town of any note Ia toe country into which, they have not found their way. The reason of this widespread popularity and dally Increasing demand Is owing entirely to their peculiar excellence and Intrinsic worth. Being determined to make them the Standard Ex? tracts or the day, we have still further Improved their quality, and now we firmly and honestly be? lieve that they st and without a rival. Our Vanilla Extract cannot be surpassed for richness and delicacy of flavor. It ls a strictly pore and high? ly concentrated Extract of Vanilla Bsans. In short, we think it the beat that is made, at least, this is the decision of the best Judges In ?.Li coun? try. We don't pretend to compete m price wita many of the so-called Flavoring Extracts of the day, which are really bat worthless compounds, undeserving of the name. v For quality and style, we defy competition.
