I . - Further details of the loss of thc Sagaoaw says ; she was totally wrecked. The crew were on the | inland with three months' provisions, plenty of water and birds on the Island. The boat which left the Island for Honolulu was lost in the surf, butane of the boat's crew escaped. Thc Saganaw ? was lost October 19th. There ls little doubt but i ' that the ninety-three persons left on Ocean Island | will be rescued. -A New York letter says: "Mr. A T. Stewart ls soon to throw open for the reception of bis ' friends the stately mansion he has been so long constructing on Fifth avenue. Some idea of the splendor of the appointments may be inferred from the fact that the carpet for the drawing Toom was made expressly for taat apartment, In Benin, at a cost ot $27 ooo. It is in a single piece, and was woven upon a loom constructed 1 expressly for its manufacture." ] -Mr. Bret Harte, who has worthily taken In the humorous and very Western poetry of the ? country the place that was so capitally Ulled In Its ( prose by Artemus Ward, has been permanently engaged by the Harpers as a contributor for their ' -periodicals. They will soon publish a poem some- ' what different In style from "Truthful James" i and the "Heathen Chinee"-a little more umbi j Wons, perhaps, and elevated in tone, yet marke 1 by the Incisive humor that characterizes all Mr. Harte's verses. . -A London baker has bis bill heads printed ! upon paper of three different colors-red, green ; and white. The object of this ls to avoid giving instructions to the man who delivers the bread, nour, Ac, to the customers. To prevent mistakes when the bill was made out upon a red paper, lt -denoted "danger," and he was not to leave the goods without the cash; if en green, lt denoted "caution," as the ct stomer was doubtful, and the man was to get the money if he could ; if on White, it was safe to leave any quantity. -There is to be a new Democratic paper in 1 Louisville, Ky. It ls to be called the Ledger, and to be issued dally and weekly. It ls to be owned by a joint stock company, and based npon a capl - tal of $60,000. The first number ls to be issued February 1 proximo, under the business manage? ment of L. G. Mathews, formerly of the New Al? bany Ledger. Its ed Hors are to be John Forsyth, present editor of the Mobile Register; Paul R. Shipman, formerly of the Louisville Journal, and Richard Stanton, of Maysvllle. Ky. -The Raleigh (N. C.) Standard establishment ' owned and edited by Governor Holden, was sold at auction on Saturday last, under a mortgage, I and was purchased by W. F. Askew, Esq., Tor ] $4000. Immediately after the sale, the city sher- , iff announced that he wouid scU the same estab? lishment, the goods and chattels or which were ' then nnder execution to certain parties, and"give 1 a better title that the attorney or the mortgagee I could. He then proceeded to si ll out the concern < In detail, realizing not quite $300O. There ls a lively time now among the rival claimants of the property. 1 -An American writes from Paris to the Ciacin ' natl Gazette: "You should see us, the Americans ! I Such a lot for'military advice and appetite. We \ eat and sleep and advise the military authorities. ( We growl ?ll daylong and aU the evening through, and when we go to bed we growl in our dreams. You know those of us who are born In our native ' land are born military and political geniuses, i War and politics are with ns an Intuition. So you j should hear us discuss Troohu and Favre and , Dncrot, while wa discuss the bolled horse or stewed cat or roast ass, or frlcaseed cat which these great men entertain us npou." -The press or Germany are discussing the siege ?of Paris. A correspondent at Versailles asserts i that the delay in the bombardment has been cans- r ed purely by military reasons, and makes some . curious statements. The way from the terminus or the railroad station ls crowded with ammuni- 3 Xioa trains. In each wagon, according to Its size r and the power of tue horses, are from eight to tea boxes Ulled with t wen ty. rour pound shelis; each box bolds but two, so that a wagon contains bnt sixteen or twenty. Assuming that when the bombardment begins one thousand shots per minute.wUl be fired, then, lor one minute alone, fifty wagons will be required to bring the necessa? ry ammunition. This work would require two days. -The fearrul catastrophe on the Mississippi and Tennessee Railroad, four miles below Memphis, by which nine persons lost their lives and thirty were more or less injured, ls fully described in the Mem? phis Avalanche. The train was running twenty miles an hour, and part or it had crossed a gully oh an Iron bridge, when an axle of the baggage car broke, and the first passenger car, containing over sixty negroes and three whites, was thrown down the embankment. The stoves were over? turned, aud In an I stant the car was in flames. Tlie shrieks of the poor creatures in this furnace were dr adful, and, though every exertion was made, seven of the negroes perished In the flames. In orteen minutes ihe wood-work or the car was destroyed, and the burntng bodies exposed to view. Wm. White, an omnibus agent of Mem? phis, was rescued, but so badly burned that both hands had to be amputated, and one eye was burned from Its socket. The next ca: in the rear, filled with passengers, was totally wrecked, and a lad named Davis seriously, ir not ratally, wound ed. The ladies' car, next in rear, was badly dam? aged, but no serious Injuries occurred. One col? ored woman taken to the hospital died soon after rrom lier burns, and another ls reported likely to die. _ The German Empire ls Peace. The address of tue Reichstag of the North German Bund to King William, praying him to consecrate the work of unification by ac? cepting the Imperial Crown of Germany, contains these pregnant phrases: "The Teutonic Crown on the head of your Majesty will inaugurate, for there-establish? ed Empire of the German nation, an era of powe7\ of peace, of xoell-being, and of liberty, secured under the protection of tne laws. * * * United Germany ha3 proved Itself mighty and victorious in war, under the leadership of Its supreme commander. The united German Em? pire Kill be mighty and peace-loving under its Emperor." This is, undoubtedly, the desire of the German people. War, for the sake of war, they never will countenance.- It is their hope that the close of the war with France will be the beginning of a long era of abso? lute tranquillity. They are not willing to withdraw their armies to-day, with the cer? tainty that the work of carnage must be renewed two years or ten years hence. The war was begun for self-protection, and it will be continued until Germany has guaran? tees that site will be allowed to work out her own destiny; to develop her own re? sources; to increase her commerce and ele? vate still further the mental and moral stand? ard of her people, without any meddling or interference on the part of France or any other power. The provisions of the constitution of the new German Confederation indicate that an aggressive policy on the part of Prussia is not to be feared. That Power agrees that, henceforth, tho consent of the Council of the Confederation shall be requisite for a declaration of war in the name of the Con? federation, except when an attack is made upon the territory or coasts of the Confede? ration. Thereby, the Crown of Prussia has, in part, given up ita highest prerogative ; one which it possessed of old, and which by the North German Constitution it had to ex? ercise for the Confederation. War, except for strictly defensive purposes, is not to be declared except by a vote of the Federal Couucil; and in time of peace that Council is to have the control of the foreign ail'airs of the Confederation. This is meant, and is accepted, as a check on auy aggressive de? signs which Prussia might cherish, and Count Bismarck agrees to it upon the ground that the Confederation is meant to je mainly a defensive power. These are tho securities against such a war as that which Fruuce declared against Germany; against any war that would not receive the sanction of the majority of the Federal Council-that is, agaiust auy war but one for the defence and protection of the nation. It is, there lore, hoped and believed that in Germany, in very truth, the Empire will be Peace. A Lesson for Boys. What can be done by boy3 who are willing to work in play-time is shown iu an article printed in a Greenville paper. Two boys, just large enough to plough, who were going to school in the City of greenville, determined to spend their Satur- s jays in working, instead of idling away their ;ime in sauntering about the streets. They ! went out to their fathers farm, three miles s From'town, and selected patches of ground, which the tenants thought too poor to culti? vate. In the spring of last year, they sowed some of these little patches in oats, which grew finely, as the season suited this crop. Then they hauled several loads of manure ? and spread over other patches for corn. They were late in commencing, and had to , plant their corn and peas before breaking up I the ground. But every Saturday they went out and ploughed all day. The crop was worked well, and they made thirty bushels , of corn, fourteen bushels of peas, which they j picked themselves, twelve hundred bundles i of fodder, which they pulled in the hottest 1 weather we ever had, and eighty-four dozeu < of oats, besides a pretty good crop of water? melons. The corn at one dollar per bushel is $30; peas, ut one dollar and fifty cents . per bushel, is $21; the fodder, at one dollar and fifty cents per hundred, is $18, and the 1 oats, at 20 cents per dozen, is $16 80, makes , the nice little sum of $85 80. The water- ' melons were eaten or given away. They have not yet sold their corn, peas and fod- 1 1er, but hold on for a better market in the i jpripg and summer. So much encouraged were they by their crop, that they sowed aud sloughed in during the past fall, four bush- , ?Is of wheat, after manuring their patches \ pretty well with barn-yard manure, scraped ip and hauled out by themselves. They in :end to enlarge their corn crop the present ?.ear, and are going to clean up, during the J winter, sundry brier patches and nooks of t lld fields. These two boys, by working one day in .he week for one year, earned S85 80; and : ive warrant that they found a spare moment br healthy recreation. They are made of ! .he right stuff, and will grow up to be thrif? ty, money-making raen. ? THE Greenville Enterprise announces that ts arguments in favor of the re-establish- - neut of the Usury laws have not been ro- 1 uted by thia paper. When the Enterprise ?j tates its argument?, we will do our best to l< elute them. " The Land Ring Once More. The substance of the last pronuncianiento of Senator and ex-Land Commissioner C. P. Leslie is, that it is useless to ask' the Advi? sory Board about the op?rations of the Land Commission, because they have no records and know nothing about that ugly business; also, that the present Land Commissioner cannot tell the horrid tale, because he, like? wise, is in the dark in regard to the past transactions of the Land concern. This is a very cool way of announcing that $700,000 has been spent, and only Mr. Leslie cnn show where and how the money went. Mr. Leslie will not tell what he knows unless be is put on oath, and he is confident of being able to clear his skirts-a declaration which is not easily reconciled with the remark of the same senator that "we (the Radicals) "are all corrupt." How shocking is it, moreover, for a Radical senator to say de? liberately on the floor of the Senate that all the dishonesty and rascality which disgrace South Carolina are one of the effects of a Republican form of government. Folks who abuse what they call "this wicked world" are apt to forget that the world would be good enough if there were no wicked people in it. _ _ _ A Financial View of the War. A leading banker of Germany writes to his correspondent in New York, under date of December 20, as follows: . "There seems to be no end yet to this Prus? sian-French war, although the Germans begin to get tired; but when it ls over I think there will be a very large emigration of Germans to America, "In Europe money is very abundant now, because business in general is at an entire stand-still, and moneyed men do not want to Invest their money; but when the war ls over there will be such a demand for money that the rate of discount will go considerably high? er. France, Germany, Italy, Turkey, Russia, and even Spain, all want money, and if Prus? sia, while victorious, had to give a five per cent, loan at 92*, what will others have to do ? "The chances for America to sell a four per cent, loan at par, if ever there were any, (which I doubt,) are over. Should, however, the war with France last four or five months yet, I think revolution will come In Europe; In such a case the capltal of Europe will all fly to America, and there will be a chance to Issue a loan at a low rate of Interest. When such a time does come, and I tell you confidently I nm afraid it will come, then will be your coun? try's financial opportunity." TUE Orangeburg News handles without gloves the proposal to re-establish the old Usury laws of the State. It holds that to do so would effectually injure and cripple Hie commerce of the State; that it would depreciate and ruin the credit of the farmer; that it would debar our merchants from making advances to the poor aad dependent; that it would not only deter capital from flowing into the State, but would frighten away the little that now lingers here. The News is kiud enough to say in conclusion " THE CHARLESTON NETTS has nobly fought " and championed this subject, briuging as V it did invincible arguments against the " system. May it, in its earnest solicitude " for the welfare of our people, reap the re " ward of its labors, and have cause ere " long to rejoice with us at the re-explosion "of so retrogressive an idea." THE Union Times, under the management )f Mr. IL M. Stokes, is rapidly strengthea ng its hold upon public favor. The paper s well arranged and well printed, and wor? ldly represents the temper and spirit of the )eople. IDnnts. WANTED, A GOOD WATTTNGMAN. Recommendations required.
