He has received letters from the twins and their famines which induce him to be? lieve in- the possibility of their separation in case of f?e pre-decease oT one of them. A.'letter from one of Chang's daughters says that her father is low-spirited, can scarcely move without assis? tance, and that his whole right side is perfectly useless. "Cncle tries to cheer him up, but he bas nothing to say." From the sentence mea tlonmg 'Fog's endeavors to cheer and comfort his brother, Dr! Lee Infers lu each a distinct and sep? arat? volition and vitality, and hence that Chang could fetrcessfufly be cut from the dead body, of Eng should tiie Utter die first. -It ls said that,although undistinguishable by dress fi om their men, tho- drath rate am ?ng the Prussian o meera during tho war has been enor? mously bltih. This can only arise from their throwing^themselves Into positions bf the great? est-danger, a course In whloh the better educated' in tho'ranks are likely to follow them. When this 13 taken into account, together with the dis- , '.ase which must arise among the more delicately nurtured'from exposure-no tenu beinj allowed In the Held-we begin to appreciate the vast losses that are the price paid, by united Germany for her successes.. The Economist estimates her loss or young men to amount to not less than two hundred thousand by casaaltles of every sort, even should the war. terminate now. What lt may be with an indefinite continuance of hos? tilities can;only bfc.surmlsed. -General Jordan'wrttes a letter contradicting the s?rement that the patriot army in Cabals growing smaller In number and welter in re? sources, lu the matter of territory he claims that, they have lost nothing substantial, and", that in' ammunition they are Btronger. At the tlme GeneralJordan left the Island, there were, at the most, MOO rules, carbines and shot guns lu possession of the patriots, necessarily limiting their, force .to. that, number. Since teat time,, several thousand arms have gone into the island, adding that number to the armed party or libera, tlon, while considerable amounts of ammunition and sulphur have been received. While thus showing that the Cuban army ls m-ore-favorably 'situated than lt was one year ago, he scouts the Idea that any attempt win be made to settle the troubte there exoept.byxruSbing the patriots. | Cordovans ?madera as bad aa.DeRodas, and the j Spanish volunteers rule the admlatetratlon of the I i HtMg^a? regard jo the 'home ' government. The letter of General Jordan" concludes with the ! sr atemeni that the Cubana : look for nothing but I ?var;-aad hope only to be allowed the same prlvi-1 loge aa their oppressora In exporting suprliea I irom this country. -The YersalUes correspondent of the I Times gives ? glowing description of the b al af the Iron Cross upon several Prussian < for gallan try displayed in the recent battle presentation took place m the arena in fi the equestrian statue or Louis the Great babbles br bravery were awarded by the Prince of Prussia tn person, standing on 1 per pedestal of the statue. He wore on th( .sion a flat cap,-with peak-and-red band, ur ed frock, and long boots, coming above the On his lett an o ulcer or dragoons^ held aj "encircled ~with Taurels,' on." which was | a heap or the Iron Crosses and ribbons. The cross is or iron, with a edge; on one side is a crown, wit: letters "P. W.,? three oak leaves, an date 1813; on the other side a crown, wit letter UW.,?" and the date 1870. The rlbb broad blaok, with a white border. On the ot the Prince stood a group or generals a fleers or the staff. As the happy recipients up, one after the other, to the number or than thirty, the Prince said a word or two I shook hands with some, and when the cere; was over drew his sword, raised it in the air with a loud voice called ror "three cheers fe King." Then a general called ror ' three c for the Crown Prince." which were given immense effect, and the drams and bugh peated a sort of triumphant blare and i Thea the Crown Prince descended' from the of the indignant statue, and, mounting hts h rode ont to the Place d'Armes, where the gen and stan*went on foot to see the troops ni past, which excited the admiration of the c: of French onlookers. -A London dispatch, of the 16th Instant, i "Official information received by this govern of the events of the last few days before Pa ora nature gravely to modify theprospec the pending campaign. The Prussian Emt here, which lt was expected .would be pi charge or a secretary by the recall or Count Bernstorff, has, on the contrary, addressed i to-day to the English Government, with a ' to secure the co-operation or Great Britain I effort ror peace.. The English Government 1 structed that Prussia ls prepared to mm seriously, her demand for a money indemnity indeed, to abandon it altogether, and thal neutralization or Strasbourg and Metz w.i accepted In lieu or their surrender. The dem ol Prussia ror the Bartender of French m en -or? nas been abandoned entirely, the Eua government having signified distinctly its a lute determination not to permit the transie any part of the French fleet to the North Geri flag.

This demand of Rossi supported by an info r ra il not?' from the Aus Hungarian Chancery. The Government or Hague has also presented a claim to be heard the terms or settlement in a Congress of Powers, and the Dutch nose has received the probation and support of tin Russian Gov? ment." WE beg that the correspondents of 1 NEWS throughout the State, as well as I County Chairmen, will forward to this offli as soon as possible, their reports of t result of the elections. Well Done, Charleston ! The election is over, and the result of t contest, though still veiled from o ur gaze, at last fixed. Many days must pass befo we eau hear enough from all sections the State to enable us to judge,'with ev approximate accuracy, of the measure success which has crowned our campaig As yet; we may riot speak of how the stur yeomanry of the mountains have bor j themselves id the crisis of the straggle, n yet of the gallant fight marie by the Refori ors of tho seaboard, north and south of c against overwhelming odds; but th ls Wees say, and wc say it with pride and pleasar -that, whatever the result may be, the City Charleston has dono her whole duty. Nev before have her people shown so deep ar so active an interest in any election'.' Tl day was absolutely given up by all classes I patriotic effort. Silence reigned along tl the wharves and in the marls of the ba, and the grimy workshops of the artisan, ac the gay bazaars ot King street, were alii closed. The citizens of every age and i all conditions in life worked nobly from earl mora till the closing of the polls, and, the battle be not won, it-,will not have bee the fault of this good old city. This paper, as ocr readers know, has no hesitated to sound a warning when it sai the community plunged in o perilous polit cal torpor, and it now gladly bears testi mony to the fact that Charleston bas richi; earned the "Well Done!" of the people o the whole SUte. Hot Water. To the outside public a heated politics contest is the source of infinite amusement A few serious souls remember that their bat tie is fighting, whether they laud or condemi the plan of the campaign. But the .many 'mouthed reading public Und ia tho thrust and parries of political disputants only tb thrilling excitement of a railroad. ho!ocau3 or wholesale . murder, with the ? a?dicioaa advantage that uo one of the combatants h likely to be seriously hurt. The stage i< heaped up with slain, but when tho curtail falls the defunct heroes spring to their feet, . and Macbeth and McDuff, Franchi and Chateau Renaud, goody youth and hardened scoundrel, quail the flowing bowl together. This is what the public Lhink of it. They .forget that men have eyes and ears and hearts and immortal souls, whether they strut upon the mimic stage or tread the broader boards of public political life. The public/inust bc amused. Their favo? rite paper, whether it be the Morning Toma hawk or Tlie Evening Slop Tub, must give them a liberal allowance of biting scarca3m or ingenious denunciation. They demand -brilliancy by the yard and invective by the iineal mile, or complain that they don't get the worth of their money. Jone3 may be as. saulted with -a; fifteen-inch Colambiad; Brown may be lampooned until he becomes black in the face; Robinson may bring the scattering hairs of his aged maternal parent ia sorrow to the grave. But it is all fun for the public-sport for the boys aud death-ta the frogs. Effervescence and Ebullition arel' as they take it, the normal state of the poli? tical journalist. Upon : the .principle that eels, when the operation is often enough re? peated, rather like the process of skinning, it. is assumed that every "anopyrnoua scrib? bler" takes kindly, to hot water, and hacT. rather ber flayed and grilled by a haughty : I Tival than live In quietness and peace. These are the flattering conclusion's to which the public jump, and K is perhaps useless to suggest that journalists do some? times feel what they say, and think -what they write. This is strange, isn't it ? - And yet it-is the truth. It becomes tbe duty of the journalist to defend the true and assail the false, to expose corruption and honor, official integrity, to protect the weak from imposition, and defend public. and. private right. And the more earnest, the more con? scientious, and the more unselfish the jour? nalist-the more enemies must he make, and the less will be his reward. Every man who is, of necessity, attacked by the indepen? dent journalist becomes an unrelenting enemy, and the public whom the journalist serves would not wag a little finger to save | him from contumely and misfortune. The hostility of the men whose rascality is bronght to light is certain and enduring; while the. public, who require that this be done, have not a word of thanks to waste upon those whose fault is their fidelity to the interests of the people. Some there are whose aim in life it is to perch upon the fence. Others run with the hare and hold with the hounds. Both take color from what they feed on. But for the journalist who bas opinions of his own, and is not afraid to express them, the road is rongh and the goal distressingly uncertain. So be it. The journalistic Ter?um Quid will one day pall on the popular palate, and, if not, there is still a blessed band who vene? rate the man -.whose doctrine, and whose life, Coincident exhibit lucid proof ... That he ls honest in the sacred eau se. The Vote tn the State.

New Books. OLD So.vo AND NEW. By Margaret J. Preston. . Philadelphia: J. B. Ltppincott A Co. 1870. pp. 312. Price 52. ' It is no small pleasure to welcome to the company, ?'fit though few," or American poets a woman, Southern born and bred, who may justly and fearlessly take her place in the foremost ranks, at least, of the sweet singera of the New World. Mrs. Preston hos clearly evinced in ber literary history the rare quality of growth. Uer present book is so far in advance of anything she had previously written, as to warrant us, for even this comparative reason, in according it a warm welcome. Bat this volume is not only an improvement, it is a very positive and vital achievement. We do not know a single volume of American verses which excels it ia rhythmic melody, in concentra? tion of expression, in felicitous simplicity and purity of diction. If her thought ie not very profound, it is at any rate fresh and vigorous, and it never ontruns nor logs be? hind her utterance. Whenever she speaks, 3he has something to say, and she says it gracefully and welL Her greatest success is achieved in her ballads, which fulfil VJ ry nearly all the requisites of that difficult form of verse, and some of which are very highly artistic. She seems generally to avoid the temptation (very rarely escaped by the few balladists which late years have produced) of stepping aside from the dominant idea of the lay, to say something only remotely con? nected with that idea. Her ballads embody one thought, or incident, or action, and are faithful to that. The setting in which she clothes it is the simplest and most trans? parent possible. In this she has excelled a poet whose influence is vary perceptible in her writings, and whom we imagine she must have carefully studiei-we mean Mrs. Browning. Mrs. Preston is not per? haps troubled with the wealth of thought which was to her great predecessor an embarras des richesses, and which, while it renders every poem of Mrs. Browning's a mine of suggestion, interferes frequently with the dramatic unity and simplicity of her finest ballads. As a striking example of Mrs. Preston's restraint and fidelity to the true spirit or the ballad, we would mention "Lady Hildegarde's Wedding," which is, we think, nearly perfect in its way. In her' strictly dramatic attempts, we do not think Mrs. Preston quite as successful as in- her lyric poems. Her genius is tender, thought? ful, sweet, anything rather than strong or, perhaps, profound. Her sonnets also are open to criticism as sonnets, though not without very great merit of their own. As an. example of very striking compression and artistic truth, we cannot help referring to the six irregular poems called, "The Royal "Preacher," which are a versification, singu? larly succe63ful, we think, of the la3t chapter of Ecclesiastes. In brief, we arc sure that any of our readers who may purchase Mrs. Preston's book because it is the work of a Southern author, will soon learn to love and value lt for a higher and deeper reason-for the rteason that in its every page they will [^find the traces of a true woman-and a true .^poet.
