-General Moltke has addressed the follow?

received with grail; ide from your representa?

document wblch confers upon me the title ol
a burgess ot Lubeck. The- numerous monu?
ments of power, ol patriotism and of benefi?
cence, recalling the lime when Lubeck stood
at the head of the confederation of cities-a
confederation whose fleets commanded the
sea and made war with kingdoms-the venera?
ble town hail, the lofty towers, the protecting
bulwarks with their shady trees, the great
ships upon the narrow river, tbe ancient
gates-one of which is so admirably- repre?
sented in the document you have sent me?
are the. earliest recollections of my childhood.
But, Ineffaceable as they, there remained in
my heart the Impatience with which I then
witnessed the violent preponderance of
France. My whole life bas been spent under
the feeling of the powerlessness of Germany
against her over-exacting neighbor, until at
last, under the ! flag of Prussia, tbe nation bas
risen to the struggle which, by God's help,
has assured the union and the strength ol the
country. And, in that struggle, the children
ofyour city, brave among the bravest, have
talen part. May a long and happy peace
compensate ns for tbe sacrifices which were
inevitable, and may Germany, with her an?
cient and venerable Lubeck, develop ber
greatness, and march forward to new desti?

-Phoebe Cary, who died at Newport, R. L,
July 3lst, was a native of Ohio, born In 1825,
in the Miami Valley, about eight miles north
of Cincinnati. Pbuebe and ber sister, Alice
Cary, born in 1820, were the daughters of
Robert Cary, a plain larmer, and grew up OB
simple country girls, owing most of their early
education to their mother. They saw foV
books, but acquired a familiarity with natural
scenes which afterwards was displayed in their
writings.. At an early age they contributed
poems and sketches to the Cincinnati weekly
papers, and next~-wrote for the "National
Era.* TulMra^roTameofpoems byAlioe-and
Phoebe Cary, one-third of which was furnish
-ed by the youngest sister, was published_ln
Philadelphia. This volume was received with
great praise, and in 1850 the sisters resolved
upon going to New-York to "seek their for?
tunes," and resided for many years In that
city in a house Ot their own, which formed the
centre of an agreeable literary circle. Alice
Cary published seven or eigbt books, and
Phoebe published two, both being volumes ol
poetry. The style of the elder sister was t?n?
der and emotional, while that of the younger,
although marked by a sentimental vein, was
chat acterized also by strong humor, with a ten?
dency to burlesque. Alice Cary, it may be re.
membered, died on February 12tb, 1871, and
the effect of the loss, it is believed, broke
down tbe constitution of Phoebe, who soon
I followed the sister to whom she was tenderly
j attached._-_
The Greetings to Charleston. .
*
This good city tastes already the first
sweers of the priceless victory won at the
polls on Wednesday. From all parts of the
I Southern country come pleasant words of
hearty congratulation. There has been, at
times, even in the South, a suspicion of
doubt and misunderstanding; but sympathy
and love, born of battles gained and pangs
endured together, rise above the current of
political thought, and find expression in the
booming of artillery on the shores of the
Savannah, as in the plaudits which every
Southern State bestows, with no muffled
voice, upon a people who have, through toil
and travail, worked out their own redemp?
tion. Our joy is theirs, as their joy shall be
ours. They are nearer to the goal, but
South Carolina, after weary delays, has en?
tered upon the long walk where opens a
broad vista of plenteousness and* peace.
This, to the peoples of - the South, is the
plain meaning of the overthrow, in this city,
of the league whose rule has encouraged
ignorance, and set .brazen infamy in the
high places of the public temple.
Nor are South Carolinians laggards in
giving tongue to their content. Every
county in-the State greets Charleston with
phrases as candid as sincere. The Palmet
? to State, from the passes of the" mountains
to the golden sands of the coast,
.?Is breathed upon by Hope's perpetual breath."
For Charleston was regarded as a city for?
saken and lost; asa city all whose glories
belonged to the ever memorable past. It
was believed thal Charleston must be slow
to shake off the yoke, because upon her
broad bosom pressed with grievous force the
burden of Radical wrong-doing. All earlier
straggles for deliverance had been vain.
Her own people spoke as those who have no.
confidence in their own energy and skill.
The political situation was, upon the sur?
face, as discouraging as in 1868. ? But when
the hosts were marshalled and the banners
raised, doubts and fears were pnt away, and
the whole line moved forward with a quiet
enthusiasm which cheered the souls of the
people. The fight was won against tremen?
dous odds. AU the powers -of Radicalism
were leagued against us. No wonder, then,
that South Carolina is buoyant and light of
heart this day.
What Charleston bas done the whole State
may do. The campaign was short and
sharp, and is splendidly decisive Our can- j
didates were wisely chosen, representing all
classes, and commanding the respect of the
opposition. Work and fair dealing did the
rest. It is true that the opposing party, by
the infamous character of their candidates,
and by the riot and marauding which gaven
bad pre-eminence to the last hours of the
contest, depressed their worthiest leaders
and gave a corresponding encouragement
to the phalanx which moved forward to en?
counter them. This, however, does not ac?
count for our marvellous success. That is
the fruit of nominating good men; and of sap
porting them with brain and muscle.. It is
the re? ult of devoting three days of time to
Watching the polls and protecting timid
voters. And it is oar own fault if Charles?
ton ever have again a government conduct?
ed in the interest of a political party, and
for purposes of personal profit. Two years
of just and equal government will convince
all classes and all races, as no words can
convince them, that it is to their interest, to
keep the city ander the control of jost, hon?
orable and experienced men. The colored
people will be satisfied before many months
are past that a city government has not the
power, if it had the will, to return them to
bondage. They will find that they enjoy
more comfort and security, and earn more
money, ander Wagener than under Ihe "pa?
ternal rule" of Pillsbury. And they and
the whites, acting together even more gene?
rally than at last election day, caa at any
time defeat the disturbing Radical faction,
and can make Charleston a model of rational
progress and steadily increasing prosperity.
In this way Charleston may exert an influ
ence which will be felt at every election in
every county in the State.
For the good words which reach Charles?
ton, for the kindly phrases in which we and
the city are praised, we are deeply grateful.
They are garnered up in the heart of hearts j
of this people, and, as an evidence of gener?
ous confidence and afi'ection, shall never be J
forgotten. _
The Spirit of the Defeated.
From the beginning it was evident that
.there wa3 not a ghost of a chance for the
Radicals to contest successfully the munici?
pal election of last Wednesday. Tbis is now
publicly confessed tn the lower deep as well
as the higher circles of "the party," where
Lieuteuant-Governor Ransier's declaration
that "no protest will be gotten up," and
that 6uch a thing "ought not to be thought
"of," meets with lugubrious approval. The
Organ goes a step beyond this,.in announc?
ing that the election "was probably about as
"fair as any election can be. in the disturbed
"condition of oar politics," and in urging all
"to submit gracefully and heartily to the
"present decree of thepeopie." Daddy Cain,
also, bas his say. To him it is a "sad com
"ment on the morale of the Radical leaders,
"that it requires thousands of dollars to get
"them to withdraw from the ticket because
"of their unpopularity with the people." He
vows, moreover, curiously enough, that "tho
"people of Charleston will not be ruled by
"d?magogues," and sorely inteade td devote
Mmselff&ereafjpr to^^joyicgV: the s|^rse
.profits ;bf po?tico-r?jiigioaB journai^ra?" In
conclusion, be-gives;the coloreb/people some
sound.radviceV- telling them that tte'Mdyor
'.and Aldermen elect are "citizeDB of worth,*
ri?nbnor, integrity and property, and will,
"when they enter apon the discharge-oi their
"duties, seek lo benefit all classes ofth&cil
"izens." - - - . --?
. These words, if sincerely ottered, augur
well for the future of Charleston.
-?..???'?>
Owning TJp;.
We asked the .Radical- Organ to have
the candor to tell its colored readers that the
Citizens' party have stood squarely up to
their pledges to the colored Aldermen nom?
inated on their ticket. The answer comes
in theBe words : '
"We are not the least afraid to answer the
question of the NEWS. When the Citizens'
party do right by our colored citizens, they
should receive commendation. They have
kept their pledges in electing the colored men
they nominated."
The Lee Monument.
A movement to erect a bronze statue to
Fitz Greene HaJieck, one of the minor
America;i poets, was begun in Kew York a
few weeks ago. Already more than one-half
of the amount ne?ded for the statue has been
subscribed. ? movement to erect a monu?
ment to General Robert E. Lee, one of the
greatest men of the South, was begun in
Richmond marjy months ago. Nobody
knows what amount has been subscribed.
At the time of General Lee's death, he
would have been a bold man who would have
affronted Lee's countrymen-his cquntry was
the South-by venturing to doubt that ?
million of dollars could easily and quickly
be collected' for any purpose, the object of
which was to do honor to his memory. . In
the first outburst o? grief, when .hearts were
soft, a tenth part of this sam might, perhaps,
have been raised, if the collections could
have been made in the instant
Bat grief cools rapidly. Large Bums are
not to be gathered in a day. Calm heads re?
membered that .Virginia had allowed the
home and grave sf Washington to become
the property of aliens. Reflecting men could
not efface the picture of that national dis?
grace, the unfinished monument of Wash?
ington in the city named after him. There
it stands a deformity and a mockery, as if to
point a raordl. Millions upon millions have
been squandered to preserve anion at the ex?
pense of liberty, to fill the pockets of thieves
and to debauch the national sense of probi?
ty, but not one dollar to complete the monu?
ment to the maa whose wisdom and courage
achieved both liberty and union. And there
it is likely to stand, while untold millions
more are squandered. Nay, as this tr?ncate
spectre has looked down upon the prostrate
form of Liberty, it may yet look down apon
a .shattered Union. . Before completion, it
may share the fate of the column of Ven?
dome.
There seems to have been unnecessary and
excessively unpleasing dispute as to who
should be the medium of Southern contribu?
tions to the Lee monument. Washington
College, now the Washington and Lee Uni?
versity, put in its claim not only to the
ashes of the great chieftain, but to his mon?
ument as wei!. The Ladies'- Memorial Asso?
ciation of Richmond made, a- modest but'
prompt movement in the monument direc?
tion. Lastly the Association of Confederate
Soldiers and Sailors, with ? General Early at
its head, claimed, and not without some
show of justice, the right to collect the funds
required and to build a monument worthy
of General Lee's fame. Of the three, Wash?
ington College alone has made progress.
We hear of a sarcophagus, ."not costly, to be
erected in the College Chapel at Lexington.
From the Ladids'Monument Association, we
hear nothing whatever. From General Ear?
ly we have obtained, within the past fort?
night, some pointed correspondence with a
brother officer. The Southern people would
be better pleased could they soe a more ami?
cable blt of writing-say . a report of what
has been, done by the Association of whieh
he is the head. The Southern people are be.
ginning to be 'afraid that in Early's hands
the Lee Monument will not make progress,
and may fail to be completed within the car
rent year.
History of the South Carolina College.
Dr. LaBbrde, whose "History of the South
"Carolina College" appeared just before the
war, has in the publishers' hands a second
edition of the work. The new edition brings
down the history to the end of the College
and the beginning of the University; so that
as a history of the College it is complete.
The work has been enlarged by the addition
of several biographical sketches of much in?
terest, among whicb/are these of the Hon.
R. W. Barnwell and Judge Longstreet The
work is to be published, by subscription, in
Columbia. %
The Latest View of Reconstruction.
[From The Nation.]
Surely lt ls not wonderful that the respec?
table portion of Southern society, seeing what
rogues and thieves their rulers and law-mak?
ers are, should not be very earnest In putting
down tbe bands of lawless young men who, if
they do disgrace themselves, their State, and
often humanity itself, do also sometimes whip
a greedy tax-collector, shoot a bribed law?
maker, and compel a disreputable office-seek?
er or office-holder to run the country. It was
only this iaat week that the leading Republi?
can paper of Charleston, while supporting no
less Radical a candidate than Mr. Gilbert Pills?
bury, an old-time Abolitionist, who is now the
Mayor of the city, and is up for re-election,
pronounced a good part of the rest ot thc tick?
et an insult to the honesty, inteligence, and
decency of the party, lt was of necessity that,
in a country like the South, violence should be
the response to the frauds and rascalities car?
ried on by such peculiarly sneaking and base
rogues as were too many of Hie Southern
"carpet-baggers." lu view of the cost of re?
construction in money, in thc reputation ^
the North, in the embittering of the Soutb, in
the wrenching which Buch legislation as the
Ku-Klnx law has given our syBtem of govern?
ment, it is far from clear that lt would not
have been cheaper if we had abandoned Mr.
Lincoln's Byst?m of galvanized States, and
garrisoned the Southern county for "five years,
keeping lt in order with soldiers till the South?
erners themselves were ready to behave sen?
sibly. It would have cost us fully ns little In
money, Constitution, and cr?ditas we have had
to pay out on the other system; and. we are
not done yet.
