SERIOUS DIFFICULTY IN C H E S T E R.-/The Columbia Phoenix, bf yesterday, says: "Passen-, gera from Chester state that the disturbances of Saturday were renewed Monday night. About 1 o'clock, the firing commenced, ana was kept up at intervals for several hours-the participants dieing whiles on the one side and colored persons . on the other. Aa the parties were not disguised, the difficulty canimt^r charged to the Ku-Klux. The information we have received is, that a militia company from Carmel QUI appeared in Chester vil? lage, armed, which excited the whites, and they began to arm themselves; in a short time another militia company made Its appearance, and a col? lision occurred. As far as we eau learn, trat one colored man waa wounded, although.several white* received bullet wouflds. The Stale and town 'officials finally succeeded In- quieting the disturbance,.and the military retired, but. it ls feared thai the troubles win oe renewed." THE FELLOWSHIP.

TBOE CHARLESTON GERMANS' GAZA DAT. Celebration of Peace-Scenes at the St hui*tnplatz a hld FrcuftilSt haft. bnnd Hull- The Oration. Yesterday will long be remembered in the annals or our German citizens, because set apart to celebrate the termination or that terrible struggle which has sent so many of their friends,. relatives and people "In "bloody Bhrouds tP sol? diers' graves." Without ostentation* or an un Feemly display of the national pride which may justly attach to a peace that, leaves Ger? many the master of a continent, and-makes the name - of a German soldier a - synonym |pr all that ls brave and puissant-with? out intruding their demonstrations, of happi? ness npon those who may have sympathized with the other side, the announcement went forth that the afternoon and evening would be devoted to j exercises suitable to the occasion. From morn? ing until night, however, the streets wore a noil day aspect, and were gay wtih flug3 and stream? ers nutting in the breeze. On King-street and the Bay-on Queen and Market -.treets-wherever, indeed, a German merchant had an abiding, place and a supply of bunting-he closed the one' and flaunted the other from the hou-etops and windows. At 12 o'clock scarcely a German estab? lishment in Charleston was open, and "shortly thereafter vehicles aud railroad cars were'called into requisition to convey the hurrying crowds to the Schutzenplatz. Between 1 and 2 o'clock a salute of a hundred guns proclaimed that "Grim visaged war had smoothed his wrinkled face ;" This was followed by music from the German band, after which Captain A. Melchers, president of the Sch?tzen Gesellschaft, delivered tbe follow - lng address, we may add, parenthetically, that all of the the speeches.were in German : SrF.ECB OF CAPTAIN A. M5LCE?-I:.-. My Dear German Fi'lenas anO Countrymen IQ thc name or the Sch?tzen Gesellschaft, I heart 1 ly welcome you here on Gentian soil, we have come t< gether to celebrate the advent of peace, and 1 ask you, in this wide world, ls there a Ger? man who does not feel proud at recent events, and whosemeart does not q>dckeu at their re? sults ? If there ls such a one, he ts no true son of Germania, and her warm blood does not course lahls- veins -If he reads the-names of Woerth, . Welssenburg,* Le Mans, La Tours. Gravellotte, Beaumancy, Sedan, Noisaeville. ' Orleans, Stras bourg?a.nd a (treat many others, and when he thiuka that over 100 eagles, 100 mltratlfeurs, loo cannon, 100,000 chassepots and the thous? ands of French soldiers taken prisoners, his pride must oe stirred indeed. This boastful nation France- brought about the war for the' express purpose of taking some of trie most beautiful pro? vinces of Germany, as. she has been doing for these two hundred years. This grand nation lias been conquered Who has won all this glory in suet; a short space of time, taken armies lu a day ? Kot. hirelings, but the brave 'sons of united Ger Sany. The German people In arm-.have evinced their enemies and the world at large that they are not Only great tn the arts and sciences, but also la the derence of German territory. Who was not overjoyed when he heard that the two jewels .-Alsace and Lorraine-were taken baok, without which this peace would be empty, and-the streams of German blood .which ha* flowed (br their re? covery would have been poured in rain ? M itch han bees said abono magnanimity to? fallen-foe, ti .1 ha? Francs" ever shown any-tb. Germen j f Uni 'the-h ret Napoleon ever show any to Prussia when he took half of her Kingdom? Was the heart of the Corsican moved when Queen Louisa. fell before him on her knees ? W.mld the third Napoleon or the French people. If they had been the victors, shown magnanimity? Np ! a thousand times no I To visit magnanimity to such a foe would be ill-timed. . lt.ls better that France should fear Germany. She has no cause to.com? plain; she. only loses what she has stolen lt. former years; aj\e should be glad that she gets off so well. We may well rejoice, my countrymen, ' ' that peace has -been made; and Germany tfc knowiedged as a leading nation of the world. Let. us not forget that.we came from this people, andi whether in a strange'-land or uet, let us be proud ? of our origin and naine. May we never forget the day, and may lt-Ur? long in our hearts.

AN ORATION BY UEO ROE KEW, ESQ. "They never shall have the free German'Rhlne, while German youths make love and marr v.-" Solt was written thirty years ago when, in-.1 1840, at the suggestion of the same Thiers who- is now des'iued by fate to sign the terms of peace at Versailles for humiliated France, Louis Phil? ippe proposed to annex the left bank of the Rhine. No I They never shall have the free Ger. juan Rhine If they cry like hungry ravens until they. are hoarse. A land so beautiful and which has cost so mauy lives must never be given to the Frenchman. At "that time-1840-Germany sturdi? ly prepared fur war. Uer warriors sharpened their swords for -the expected struggle, ami France, astonished and admonished, postponed the event. In.the year. 1808, Napoleon attempted to quarrel concerning Luxembourg'. Again the people stood ready with sword and rifle to- repel' the robber; but the German diplomats, knowing that ponce Improves while war destroys, submit? ted for tho tune, rather than let loose the furies Of destruction. * lt was; however, bu: au armed peace, for lu 1S70 the.Napoleonic throne was lot? tering. What did he ?lo with lils loud-mouthed Frenchmen who would only be satiated with the Imaginary glory of thc left bank of the Rhlde? The unconscionable tyran.trdeclared for- war, and threw the gauntlet fe- the face or'Prussia. . All Germania COOK lt up; she shook her garments proudly, drew ber sword, and the air rang with the cl&ng or steel. In two weeks the grandest ar? mies lu the world were In line of battle. We Know what followed. Tue years 1S70 au<4 1871 sj lil be recorded on the pages pf history In letters of fire and blood. The greatest events ia the world's career have occurred: In the short space of seven months the daring autocrat was dethroned and lamenting the loss of his Alsace and Loffalne Bright names have- been inscribed upon om* vic torious banners, and Indelibly, written In our an? nals. Welssenburg, Woerth, Saarbruck, Metz, Mars la Tour, Gravelotte and Sedan, with" the cap? tured Emperor, Orleans, Le Mans, Chambery, and even Paris, the proud courtesan, iles sup? pliant at. the.-feet of the victor. Rut lt ls now peace, and the heroes of Germany may'rest from their bloody work. The gigantic problem has been solved, and Germany, stands a conqueror on the throne of the great disturber of peace and at the head of a continent. "Thanks be to God who - gave ns the victory." German fellow-cltlzens and ladles, I have been delighted in watching your patriotism, your will? ingness to-make sacridces fur your wounded and the widows and orphans of the Fatherland, and. your confldenoe tn the justice of your cause. We are here to-day to give expression to our Joyous . feelings for . the victory we have gained. How can we do lt best ? While we remain Germans in fidelity, tn faith and In nutty, our gratitude must, and ever he, uttered for the great sacrifices the dear old Fatherland has made In shedding its noble heart's blood. I there*ore*propose that we unite in laying a * three-fold laurel wreath on the altar of the Fatherland, and seal the act with three cheers. First to those men who have brought Germany Jrer grandeur and her greatness, and especially those who have gained great triumphs-the nero-Klng, William, and his brave leaders-the German Emperor and hts mar? shals. "Three rousing cheers from the crowd.] Second to the German armies-those brave men who have united Germany with blood and steel, and who, with more than one hundred thousand ?lead on the hattie fields of France, have sealed heir devotion to the Fatherland. They were lions in battle, and lambs in peace. - [Three more immense cheers.] Third and finally, to the Ger man women who have given birth to such men, and made them heroes. [Three more tremendous cheers.] The popular and patriotic song "Die Wacht am Rhein" closed the Vocal part'or the entertain? ment, whereupon the ladies took possession of the hall; and until dark occupied every moment in un? alloyed enjoyment. Hundreds of Americans joined the happy throng during the afternoon, and at five o'clock there must have been three or four t housand persons m and aroumd the grouqds. Tiie scene'reminded one. of the Sch?tzenfest. Everybody was 'dry, aid the lager flowed like a young Niagara In washing down the dust which had lodged like a sand-bar in the multitudinous thro'.t. Three cannon shots announced the clos? ing or the festivities in the grounds, and the crowd wended their way homeward to prepare for the entertainment of the evening. It ls but. just to state that the excellent preparations for the accommodation of the public at the Sch?tzen platz were under the control of the following committee: A. W. Jager, D. Nordmeyer, M. J. H. Ost endo i rr, C. Berti usse, G. Nordel!, G. Marien h off, H. Belltzer. THE ILLUMINATION. The general display of bunting which enlivened the aspect of the city during the day was suc? ceeded, at night, by an Illumination, the like of which Charleston has not seen since the Confed? erate war. The various German organizations seemed to vie with each other in the elaborate and tasteful manner in which their respegtlve headquarters blazed iu all the glory of gas, multi? plied candles and chinese lanterns. Especially noticeable among these were the hall of the Ger? man Rand, corner of King and Society streets;, .the hall of the Broderitctierbnnd, Klug, near Clifford street ; the Turn Halie in King street, be. low Broad street, and ?rc hall of the German - Company, Chalmers street. A very large 1 ber of the private establishments of oar Get fellow-cit i zen s were also Ilium tn a ted, promt among "which we may mention the "Hi House, King .street, near Wentworth; the' deuces or Mr. William Sehachte, King street, .of Captain A. Melchers, King, between George Calhoun streets. But the chef d'outre In the of illumination was THE HALL OF THE FREr/KOSCHAFTSBUXD This beautiful building was-a blaze of-1 from top to bottom. Thousands of wax cat sparkled in the windows, and a double ro Chinese lanterns fringed the roof, The p wa9 also elaborately adorned with Chinese terns, while a huge transparency Ailed the f, central window wltli a device or the G?n*li Liberty unfurling the standard of Imperial many, the whole emblazoned with the symb the Rom&S fasces, and a legend in German, UNION IS STRENGTH !" Hundreds of our cit! surrounded the hall during the evening, adml themagnlflcent and Inspiriting display. -Within, the building was crowued to sun Hon by the throng who had assembled- to pat pate in the olosing exercises of the day. E' inch of standing room was occupied, and no considerable proportion of our native clth were Interested spectators of the rejoicing their enthusiastic German friends. .When curtain rose, about half-past 8 o'clock, the. si was occupied liy the singing, section of Bruderlicherbund, upon whom devolved choral portion of the entertainment. The exercises were begun with music by German band, and the song "Hell Dlr In Sie; krans," whereupon Captain Jacob Small, pi 'dent of the Freundschartsbund, delivered the lowing address of welcome: REMARKS OF CAPTAIN JACOB SMALL. Honored Assembly-This ts a great festival i on which all tue resident Germans of Charles! and those of their friends who' sympathize v .their cause and succe-ses, have met to enjoy occasion, and to give thereby a proof that t still appreciate au that ls dear to them wi makes the Fatherland great' and gloriaos.'

This is merely a greeting in name of tlie Freundschartsbund, and a hen weloonre to all who have met t?-nlgiit. .Then lollowed the song "Aur, Ihr Kreger, zl voa dannen." Declamation or the poem "Fl den." written by Captain Melchers,. and reel by a lady. Arter this came the song '-Tambo schlag ao," from "Zwei Bil 1er-ans dem Krlegi ben," ("two pictures- of the war,") by Rev. Muller. This solo and chorus was splendidly st and applauded to the echo. Tiie Kev. L. Muller, then delivered the follow] . handsome oration" :. ORATION BT V.EV L. MULLER. The telegraph during the past week brought tidlHgs most glad from beyond the sea. Tho gSntlc struggle between our Old Fatherland a Fiance is over; the sword ls put Into the sci bard; the angel or peace has shed lils beni countenance upon the. bloody field, and the ha of the destroyer ls stayed. The fell d?mons war are fettered, and the nations o' the ea: breathe freely once inore.. Like" unto that fi great Christmas carol. "Behold, I bring yon gi .tidings of great joy,"-ls this welcome announ 'ment of peace; tor we were engaged In this co bat heart and soul. We followed the vlctorlt army into the heart or France with feverish an ?ty. Ia splrlt^?wer?" never.absent from th< battle-fields, fof w*s not our own flesh and bib there engaged tn the most bloody strife the wo: has ever seen * Although the Ocean separates from our brethren beyond, the blood that conn through their veins ls one and the same with t stream that gives life to every German on tl continent. Though we have become citizens another country, in heart we remain the chlldr ' of our old Mother. . ?We live in no ordinary times, and lt ls onr prl liege to read the brilliant pages history wm ass! to- tills generation. Our own German people lia I conquered one of the greatest nations. In t .world's history. In the words of the Psalmist, j say; "The Lord has done gre? things for t j Waereor we are glad." It ls this thought th pervades the festival we celebrate to-day; and is my privilege to be permitted to say. this to-da in'the name of this assembly, represeniatlves the great family gr German peoples. -Like a clap 01 thunder In a clear*ky came tl French declaration of war, elgla months ago. : a fortnight, the two mightiest armies thewor has ever seen confronted each other, ready fi battle; The situation was grave to the last d gree. Two giants had stripped for the fight. Tl Erize was the leadership among the nations urope.*The whele world stood waiting lifbreat less anxiety, to see upon which si le tliet cale i ?fctory would Incline. The first blows were struck. "Tiiumph of th righteous- cause-victory." Such was the spoi taneous outburst of every German heart. (J twelve or the greatest battle-fields or the eartl from Welssenburg to Sedan, Germauflclonsof wi and valor won the most decisive victories. I less than a month, tbe armies or Frasee wei crushed, captured or beleaguered. Their Empi ror was a prisoner In the hands or the victo They began to talk i -f peace. Again they ralllet This, was fon].hardiness. The battles beean massacres. The opposing nations groaned andi the weight or the mighty combat. And ano God gave new victories to our "ag. ' Ike mighty stream or living lire, our armies pome into'the heart or France. Finally, the Frene capital, surrendered. The German army entere Parlaln-trlumph, and they who struck-thc* firs, blow were Torced to pray for peace. And peac came. What that means we can realize when w think of the horrors of war; when, before th mind's eye, the bloody battle fields appear, wher thousands ot the wounded and dead lie trodtlei under roqt-sacrificed uti the. altar of am .bttlon;. when the sounds of woe reach ou ear from the .mothers who mourn their sons from wives who lament; their fallen husbands from children who vainly call their father's nnme from the-betrothed who bemoan the crushe< hopes of a lire. There the holy angels veil taeii faces, weeping the destruction of the image o God. And the friend of humanity looks ou wltl an aching and a-despondent heart. How oftei did we think, at this time, of the words or tin p-)et: "Der schrecKUchste der schrec)cen, das ts der mensch iiLseinem.iohann," ("The most hor rlble or horrors ls man swayed by pa=sion."j Ami passion lt was which brought on this war The deception or a. people who called theuiselvei Great, because the good God used them as instr ti meats in farmer times ror chastising the nation or Europe. A deception it was to rancy that the* .were called upon to decide th? destinies of na tions-a" work which-ls God's alone. Therefore He sate In judgment Upon that people, and, shat tered in pieces, the fabrlo of their glory and po wei .lies npon the ground. 'But now lt ls PEAO? I And Joyfully sound the tidings over the face of the earth. Peace 1 Peace With what a thundering hurrah ! may thc war . riors have received the new3 I Peace ! Und jedes Hier mit Sing and Sang, Mit Pauken und Trompeten Klang, Geschm?ckt mit gr?nen Reisern, Zieht helm zn seinen Hausern, And every corps with shout and song, With beat of drum and trumpet's clang, ' Decked with leaveB and branches green, March onward to their homes. Peace I Like a Gospel to mothers, wives ana betrothed, and even if there are - many who have to cry out, "Too late for me," even they rejolce-ln the happiness or their people. Ttroseahat mourn their fallen ones know also It was a holy strife that they had fought, An object worthy of the noblest girt, To make that truth which, for many hundred years, Was Germania's fondest dream. . . Though the warrior rails on the bloody field, Plicenix-llke, CUjrmany?is born or the'war, The lives or the loved ones are lost and goae, But Fatherland flourishes for which they fought. Peace ! Now ls thc time to celebrate festivals of peace, for peace ls the hiebest earthly good of the nations. Napoleon boasted once that the Empire ls Peace. Led on by ambition he has five times broken this pledge given to humanity, but out of the baptism of fire ami blood regenerated Ger? many went forth.-the true Empire I And I see in my mind on her forehead, shining a glorious name. (Uh, that lt mighi shine for cen ta? rli s to come l) This name is Peace I Toe German Empire ls Peace. And what a triumph is given to us-the greatest knowu in the history of the world. What successes Germany has gained I We may perhaps couut the trophies and spohs of this war, but only the future can reveal thc grand results of our achievements. But what we see, even now, ls like a halo around the victorious brow of our people. Germany's Unity- -the dr am of our lire-has become a truth. Born amid the pains or war, baptised with fire and blood, nourv ished on the breast or peace, what a powerful em? pire maut that become. Its Influence as well as Its powerful situation among the nations of the earth wm be felt. We feel lt even here. How thu consequences of this German victory have already influenced the peo? ple. How lowly would we appear berore the rep re8entattves or other nations In this country ir our brethren on the other side of the ocean had been conquered In this contest. Now, however, they begin more and more to appreciate German mind and worth. To whom do we owe this victory? To the white haired hero-King William, now the German Em? peror; to Bismarck and to Moltke! So cries out the whole world, aud we should be the last to detract from their fame. We ho;d with- those who say: "Would to God we had such governors !" Even these great conquerors, however, ascribe- to the King or Kings and Lord of Hosts alone the glory. It was the superior education of the Ger? man people which conquered France. This edu? cation ls the work of tue church, and the church ls the work Of God.- To Him alone be glory ! He had made these heroes-shining lights be'foie man kind}and because they fear and honor Him, be? cause thev recognize His handiwork, He has made them names that wUl remain illustrious and gio ri?os thronghail the centuries.. When the-nev German Emperor Bits upon, nia throne, and around bim gathers his people with hero leaders as -glori? ous as those with which .David surrounded Zion, then may .lie call out with the-poe: "Vereint mit euche So fordr' ich mein Jahr hundert In die Schranken," United with you, I call my centuries into the liste.
