H remarked; "I didn't come to re-buchu, Mr. Presi? dent," and Orant kept on smoking. '-It is said that Lee used sometime} to speak of the enemy as "General Meade's people," "General Grant's people," or "our friends across the river." ' -Chief-Justice Chase continues to Improve ta health, and expects soon to resume his seat on the bench. -Colonel Ames's circus company will be dis? banded in Macon.

Lee, and Mrs. Lee, are named as the executors, and the former qa a! med on Mon * day. ' -Sew York Imported last week $18,578 worth of jewelry, $16,214 watches, and $16,442 fancy goods, all Indications of the coming holidays. The dry goods-silks,: satins, Ac-are nearly a minion"ahd a quarter,'thus" Bhowlifg that Flora McFlimsey, as usual, gets the lion's share. -Tennyson's admirers will be glad to hear that ^ he wUl shortly appear again before the public, In a series of twelve brief poems connected by a love-story, and illustrated both by the pencil and by music. Mr. Arthur Hughes win give the artis? tic Illus! rations of the new work, and Mr. Arthur Sullivan will set to music these latest utterances of the poet laureate. -The siege of Strasbourg lasted thirty-one days. During that time two hundred and forty one guns were employed throwing balls, shells and projectiles of various kinds Into the fortress. These numbered In all 193,722. On an average ?349 were thrown every day, 269 every hour, and from 4 to five every minute. Fancy any place, however strong, standing that kind of treatment -one month. -Although no precise date has yet been an? nounce?! for the marriage of the Princess Louise to Lord Lorne, lt ls understood that the nuptials will probably be celebrated about the first week ita February, at Windsor Castle. It is expected that Parliament win be asked to present tie Prin? cess with the same dowry as that granted to the Princess Helena on her marriage to Prince Chris? tian of Schleswig-Holstein-namely, ?39 000, and? an annuity of ?sooo. -Th? family of General Lee have selected Colo? nel Charles Marshall, of Baltimore, to write a fnU biography of the great chieftain, and win turn over to him ample material, Including that col? lected by General Lee himself, and his notes and letters of his campaigns. Colonel Marshall will also prepare the biographical sketch for the forth? coming Lee Memorial, which the Faculty of Wash? ington and Lee University are pushing forward to completion. To his high literary attainments Colonel Marshall adds the rare qualifications or haying been General Lee's pri /ate secretary du? ri ng. tie war. -Our Texas exchanges bring us frightful ac eeunts of destruction of property and crops, both of corn and cotton, by the overflow of rivers from the heavy ratas recently In that State. The flood In many of the streams ls represented to exceed ta destructiveness that or the spring or 1869. The floods have extended to the entire territory or middle and western Texas. Many fields of cot? ton on the bottoms, that had not been touched for want or sufficient picking force, were totally de? stroyed. Gnat gloom and despondency prevail among the people, many of whom, In their eager? ness to gather cotton to the neglect of their corn, have lost their entire oom crops. -A correspondent of the London Times, writing from Germany, says the tone or feeling lu that country ls (October 26) very hostile to England. He says the German public ls being prepared for the exhibition of a still mire determined hostility *owi,rd England, and or rrlendshlp toward Bus? ala, when at the close of the war In France, ir not berore, Russia will take rrom Turkey her re - ward tor her present attitude or neutrality, j'o asserts that a secret understanding to this effect exists between Russia and Prussia, and advises England to make riends with the firmer by ob? viating a coin,lon on the Eastern question. It was to prevent Russia joining with England for the restoration of peace on terms ravorable to France that the understanding was promoted by Prussia, but the correspondent thluks mat lt is not ol such a uature as Irrevocably to prevent Russia from withdrawing rrom lt In return tor certain privileges withdrawn from her in 1865. -The Peck bargain and corruption divorce suit in New York is now a sensation In that sensation lovta? city. The incidents or this case are re? markable, and ir trae give us the spoctacte of the most contemptible characters fl gm lng m a way that would shame the worst schools of Acion, which refuse to produce a novel without relieving lt by at least one virtuous and honest character. The Peck divorce suit gives us thc following incl? ients: "A scheming mother-in-law, offended at her daughter-in-law, offers a son $30,000 to di? vorce his wife. The son. a paper collar manufac? turer, who seems worthy of such a mother, con? sents. The wife, deservedly bound to such a hus? band, secretly agrees to the separation on the faith of his promiso to marry her again as soon as the mother has been robbed of her $30,000. A rascally bookkeeper, worthy of Buch a master, j swears to the commission of adultery with the I wife, and the divorce ls granted. Very naturally auch a husband refuses to re-marry sach a wire, and quite naturally tc* wife gees into court, ex poses the conspiracy, and makes humanicy blush at Its baseness." -The story of the capture or Orleans reads like a page from the history of the Crusades. The French, destitute of artillery and fearfully out? numbered, were forced to defend the city by in? dividual b'avery, and made the victory a dear one fer the Germans. Daring the night befere tho assault, little "snake parties" were organized to creep out through the long grass and meet the Prnsslons crawling In. And every now and then the silence was broken by a sharp, hissing cry AB snake met snake in the underwood, and the stings, In the shape or the long hunting-knives carried on these expeditions, went to work. Next day. lt being evident that the town must rall, lt was d elded to save tho bulk or the army by re? treat, while the Foreign Legion and the Pontifical Zouaves engaged the Prussians and covered the retreat. And nobly they did lt. The Prussian artil? lery rained missiles of death upon them, till they Judged them broken, and then assaulted en masse, only to be driven back In ruin. Four times did they meet repulse, but on the fifth as? sault not a shot was fired against their heavy masses as they deployed In the open, but as they swarmed lr to Bauten and Into the raliway station about a hundred and fifty ghastly creatures In the rall tar y garb rose up to meet them In the longed for embrace or death. Orleans was won. But of these iso men not 60 escaped to tell the tale of how lt was defended. Of 1500 or the Foreign Legion 36 came back to Blois, and or 370 Zouaves, but 17 left the field alive. * - * The Leopard and the Kid. Governor Scott is fast developing a vein of turnor which promises to throw his clas? sical allusions into the shade. A genial glow relaxes his tense muscles, and a stead? fast contemplation of his official majority dis? poses him to be at peace with the good peo? ple of South Carolina and "all the rest of "mankind." Should not bygones be by? gones? Only a few days ago Governor Scott denounced the mild Reformera as tur? bulent Bebels, and suggested that a body of armed men were harrying tho innocent Re? publicans, who cultivate peanuts and party politics in the upper part of the State. Treasurer Parker and Auditor Tomlinson swelled the chorus of patriotic remonstrance. "Our smoky Caesar" nodded his august head, and promised an indefinite amount of heavy infantry and light artillery. A shadowy Colonel Baker flitted across the stage, prating of "many more murders" and all the other sanguinary nightmares of a dyspeptic imagination- Thi3 is done with now, and Governor : Scott, rippling with solemn smile, proclaims a. day of "public "thanksgiving" for the 'manifold blessings" with which the year is crowned. On bended knee the twice-elected Gover? nor may return "fervent thanks" for what ia to uj, at best, "a blessing in disguise." We wonder, however, whether he remembers .trie speeches of Joe CrewBtfcOo., when he proclaims that "political bitterness has been "ameliorated;" and whether he has forgotten the Winchester rifle speech, and the anning of the colored militia, when he declares that "public tranquillity has been greatly im? proved." In all soberness, nevertheless, we have roach for which to be thankful. The health of the State has been remarkably good. The earth has given forth abundant fruit, and the whole State is anxious to pre? serve peace and increase the prosperity of the people. For this we may sincerely and devoutly thank a Beneficent Providence; for thin ?o ui?y conliuuc LO labor-Lt mm de? ferred hope, at least without despair. But Governor Scott will be satisfied with nothing less than the immediate coming of a ' moral and political millennium, when "the $wclf shall dwell with the lamb" (as during the past four years?) and when "the leopard "(who shall first .change his spots?) shall "lie down with the .'kid." Which ?3 the wolf and which is the lamb; which is the leopard and which is the kid, Govern? or Scott, does not condescend to explain. Bnt be bas given Joe Crews the cold shoulder, and is said to have promised that the rioters in the up-country shall be disposed of by the civil tribunals. These two crumbs of comfort be follows up with a "peace proclamation," aboutiding fn text and metaphor. And this time, perchance, he is not poking fun at the people of the State. ? _ Oar Wharves. A good deal bas been said during the past few years about the policy of wharf manage? ment in Charleston, and it has been con? tended that wharfage rates should be prac? tically abolished, in the face of the fact that ancient Boston, and even Baltimore, maintained their wharves by a trifling tax on merchandise and produce passing over them. New York was held up as a pattern of excellence, because no wharfage charges were made there on goods. This policy has brought the piers of New York to such a wretched condition, that the great com? merce of that port is seriously hampered, except on piers owned by steamship compa? nies, and which, at great C03t, have been im? proved by these private corporations. It has, therefore, been found necessary at New York to change the past policy as to wharves and the old-fashioned p'an of Boston and Charles? ton is to be adopted, as will be seen from the following official report published in the New York Journal of Commerce: THE IMPROVEMENT OF THE WATER FRONT. The majority of committee No. 5, of the Chamber of Commerce, have recommended the following pian for the improvement of the water Iront of the city, and it was adopted hy? the chamber at a special meeting yesterday, (Wednesday:) South and -vest streets should be made a width of about ono hundred and thirty (130) feet for Sottlh street, uud about one hundred anti filly (150) feet for West street. Along the water front u substantial bulkhead ol masonry should be built, from which wharves at least sixty (60) feet wide should be extended into the river to the exterior harbor line, and, as far as practicable, the wharves should be placed at the loot of each street. The slips Oetween these wharves should vary iu width, In the clear, from about two hundred feet to about two hundred awl twenty feet, i he foun? dation of the wharves should be large hollow iron columns, to be filled In with solid mason? ry laid in cement, (uuless it should be consid? ered belter at an increased cost to substitute stone piers and arches,) with sufficient space between these columns to leave free passage for the currents and for the tides. Upon these wharves should be built, when? ever the demands of trade require, warehouses of brick, stone or iron, three- or lour stories high. The first floor should be open and free from all obstructions, except stairs and the columns which would support the other floors. These warehouses should be of suitable width and size, and extend over the whole length of the wharves. Iron gates should be placed at the front of each wharf, and could be closed except during acilve business. Along tho. bulkheads, beficeen the wharves, iron sheds, open at all sides, aoout twenty-floe feet icide and about twenty feet high at the peak of the roof, might be very serviceable In giving merchan? dise temporary protection from the weather. * * * **-*?? The construction of the wharves and ware? houses should be by individuals and companies In conformity with the plans that shalt be adopted by the commissioners, and these In? dividuals or companies should be allowed to retain or to acquire one or more warehouses in fee or on lease, subject to such reasonable restrictions and regulations ot the commission? ers as will conduce to the public good. For the carrying out of the above improve? ments we have to suggest the following plan, namely : Fix upon the above as the kind of wharves to be built; then fix upon a rate of wharfage on ships, and on all goods shipped and discharged from the wharves; then pro? cure the pi- sage ol an act of the Legislature authorizing the above improvement and the rates of wharfage, dividing the river front Into sections of convenient size, Inviting compa? nies to organize under the act In such manner as may be deemed Bate In the Interest ot the city; let these become the owners of the prop? erty by purchase, at a price Axed by a board of commissioners appointed for the purpose. All present owners to have the right of mergln? their property in the stock of the company. Now, in our judgment, these Improvements can be made better, cheaper, and more expe? ditiously by this plan, than in any other way. The improvements should be made under the supervision of the dock commissioners. With respect to designating where the dif? ferent kinds of business shall be located, tor very many reasons, too numerous to specify, some of which must be obvious to every one who gives the subject any thought, lt ls much better to leave this localization lree to adjust Itself. We would remark, however, that we consider lt very desirable that trade should be localized, and that there are many good rea? sons why the business coming from the East should be confined as far as possible to the East River, and that coming from the North and West to the Hudson River. The report Is signed by Messrs Ambrose Snow, W. H. Webb, L. B. Lyman, Paul N. Spofford, Wm. H. Galon. E. P. Fabbri, Jas. H. Frothlngham and Geo. W. Dow. ?Another Outrage In Union." The TJnionville limes shows that there are four palpable falsehoods in the Radical account of "another outrage in Union." A number o? "indiscreet men and boys" were boisterous, and said some "very naughty "things" about the constables, but the out? raged person was not fired at, and there was no disturbance whatever. Perhaps, after all, if would be well to turn over these .indiscreet men and boya" to the care of the school commission. Their idle words enable the Radical papers and Radical poli? ticians to make mountains out of mole-hills, and give to these people an importance which they can never obtain while they are treated with serene contempt. The School Commissioner of Union County can already spell words of three syllables, and the "in? discreet men and boys," in sobering them? selves, might finish the commissioner's edu? cation. _ _ THREE Radical county commissioners were elected in Union on the 19th ultimo. One of the three can actually read and write. Glory ! (Eoncatumal. lYyTISS JULIA V. ROACH WILL OPEN A IXL SCHOOL FOR GIRLS on MOND VT, Novem? ber 14th, at her residence, No. 13 Society street.

THE MARION FIRE ENGINE COMPANY Propose, on thc 7th day of December next, to give A GRAND B AL L AT THE ACADEMY OF MUSIC The object of the Company is to relieve itself from the pressure of debt, so that its service to the community'may be rendered more free ead efficacious. The pay of the Department has been reduced, and the usual resource for discharging necessary expenses has thus been greatly limit? ed, J "he members of the Company give their services, which are not free from risk, very cordially, and they make liberal contributions themselves; but they cannot sustain the burden that ls upon them In the purchase of their Steam Engine and their current expenditures, without aid from those who derive the whole benefit of the service. The Marlon Fire Company therefore appeal to the citizens to give them liberal aid in the pur? chase of Tickets, and in the countenance and support of their present enterprise.
