HEWS OF THE DAT. -Gold closed in New York yesterday at 12j. -Cotton closed quiet; uplands 19} cts. ; Eales 75? bales. -In Liverpool cotton closed strong; up? lands Od, Orleans 9?d; sales 18,000 bales. -The crew ol the wrecked steamer Wyo? ming are safe. -Travellers complain that Paris was never so expensive as now. -Foi next season, lt is said, that bonnets are to have all their trimmings on the back, Instead of in front, as formerly. -The potato blight has developed to an alarming extent in Ireland, and it is feared that the crop is almost ruined. -Forty-four vessels, ganging 38,000 tons, passed through Ute Suez Canal in June. One steamer had touched sixty times on the way. -On Friday last St, Louis sold seventy hogs? heads of tobacco for shipment to Dublin, Ire - land, and exults in the extension ol "direct trade." -The Italian opera season at London was closed Jnne 22, by the performance of ''Dino rah," la- which Adelina Patti appeared as the heroine. -Eighteen towns in Great Britain have pop iiU?ons^exceedlng .100,000; there being thir teen in EugJacd.atreo in Scotland and two In Ireland. -The approaches to the bridge across the Mississippi, at St. Louis, are being rapidly completed. Four of the approach piers on the east side of the river are finished, two are sunk, and will reach their foundations ia about a week. -It ls now said that the unfortunate woman In New York, whose demise furnished the basis of the sensation story ol the cholera hav? ing appeared ia that city, was taken off by just such an attack as one might expect to fo?ow a repast of twenty over-ripe peaches, two can. telopes and a watermelon, which was her last banquet. -The ex-Empress of Mexico, Carlotta, it is positively stated, cannot live through the com? ing autumn, as she now has periods of perfect prostration lasting forty-eight hours, and her death is expected almost any day. She is on y thirty-one years of age, having "been married to the unfortunate Archduke Maximilian when Bhe was but seventeen years of age. -The San Francisco Call has been making a census o? the rich men of the city, and In a late issue gives the names of all who are worth half a million of dollars or more. The list comprises seventy-eight who are worth from a half a million to a million dollars each; thirty-two over one and under two millions; ejeyen over, two and under three millions, lour over three and under four millions; four worth from four to ten millions. -The Rothschilds are said to be such firm believers lo luck that they will never employ any orle In any capacity who bas been unlor tunate. They always ask the man who ap? plies to them for a situation, however hum? ble, ^ave you ever had any bad luck and. if the.--ply be in the affirmative, he is deject? ed without any further discussion. To this apparently severe and unjust mode ol dealing they attribute much of their extraordinary success in business.. ..-LA Berlin letter says there ls much bitter complaint in Prussia growing out ol the dis? tribution ot the four million thalers (about three million dollars) which has been voted by the German Parliament for the reserve and the landwehr, and of which two and a half millions fall to Prussia. This is an avenge of three dollars for each man which, when com? pared with the equal amount divided among the generals, makes a strange contrast. In the first place it is four millions divided among 700,000, and in the other, lour millions divided among sixteen. -It is amusing to observe the many modes people have of dead-heading their way through this world. A Michigan farmer went into Detroit and bucked the tiger until he got bucked out of the currency he possessed. He vainly sought various means of transportation home, and finally concluded to effer a tract of land for sale cheap, and thU3 induce some one to go out with him and look, at it. This bait took. Next day a gentleman started witn him. and after two days' travel, arrived at a little station and put up for the eight, only fire miles from borne. Next morning :ue former was gone, and investigation proved that he didn't own any land, bul he had sold the would-be purchaser nevertheless. -The British Parliament was prorogued on Monday by royal commission until November 7. The Queen's speech acknowledges with satisfaction the provision made by Parliament for the Princess Louise and Prince Arthur. The announcement Is made that the relations of Great Britain with fo. eign powers are of a friendly character. The treaty of 1856 having been revised by the conference recently held In London, a hope is expressed for continued tranquillity in the East. The speech dwells with satisfaclion upon the treaty ol Washing? ton, and hopes for a general recognition of the j principle ior guiding ma-itime conduct of neu? trais. Full reliance 1?, placed upon the dispo? Bition of Amerlcanp. to carry out all the pro? visions o? the treaty. The Queen is anxious to meethhe expressed wishes of the French Gov? ernment for ibe alteration of some of the pro? visions of the commercial treaty of 1860, but would witness with concern any change which would restrict commercial intercourse. The Commons are thanked for the liberal supplies they have granted. Extraordinary powers granted for the repression of agrarian outrages in Westmeath have thus far answered their purpose, while in other portions ot Ireland there is a gratifying immunity from crime. The remainder of the speech is devoted to topics ol a local character. An English Estimate of the South. An article in the Saturday Review of August 5, reviewing Professor Draper's His? tory of the American Civil War, is worthy of notice as a pleasing evidence that, in Eng? land at least, the principles involved in the war between the States are reasonably well understood, and,, also, that a disposition ex? ists to do full, though tiW., justice to the defeated South. The reviewer says, with reason, that a fair history of the war is not yet to be expected, and he doubts whether such a history-dealing impartially with the motives and actions of both belligerents will ever be written. Those histories, there? fore, "must be regarded as comparatively "fair and honest, in which the conduct and "claims of the South are not wilfully dis? torted and misstated-in which the writer, "if himseir unable to apprehend, and there "fore incompetent to present to bis readers, "the political aspect of ihe dispute unen? cumbered by ethical questions, which "neither of the parties to the Federal com "pact were entitled to import into it, at "least endeavors to give the factB as they "really occurred, and to repeat the argu? ments of the South as they were actually "stated by Southern writers and orators." The reviewer is of opinion that no other Northern author bas approached so nearly to the comparative standard as Dr. Draper, who "makes an evident and studious effort "to be not only accurate, but liberal-not "only to etate the facts correctly, but to clo "justice to the motives and the convictions "of men whom he regards as utterly and un? pardonably wrong." From such a source this is high praise indeed. The reviewer, however, believes that a careful reader will find in Dr. Draper's pages "abundant reason "to doubt whether the North was really so "thoroughly in the right as it appears to "thia Northern author." He says : uThe reader will find, In short, that the case of the North res'" entirely on the assumption that slavery is a aime ; and however little he may be dispos?e to dispute this assump? tion, it will occur to every one not blinded by partisanship, or rendered careless by pre? conceived judgment, that it was one which the North had no right to Import into its Fed? eral relations. No point was more clearly as? certained, more distinctly laid down in the very lormaUon of the Union, than the uninter? rupted and Inviolable sovereignty of the States over their own domestic institutions. The right of the South to maintain slavery wilhin her borders was constitutional;y indisputable; it had been donbly recognized by the North, I In the clause forbidding Congress to prohibit the slave trade before 1608, and in the fngl live slave law, which formed an article ol the constitution; and having once entered into union on equal terms with the slave States, the North was bound, within that Union and during its 'continuence, cot only to make no attacks on slavery, where it existed under State laws, but to recognize ils existence as an institution coeq.ial with lreedom within the area ol Federal jurisdiction. It ls absurd to suppose that the slave States were to admit the enormi'.y cr even the inferi?; ity of their own system, and to accept its exclusion irom Ihe Territories in which they bad an equal right-most of which were, indeed, originally their own. Thia fact once understood-lt being once perceived that, so long as the Union subsisted, the South was equal with the North, and slavery as good as lreedom, in point ol all Federal rights-lt ia impossible for a reader of Dr. Draper's History not to per? ceive that in the political battles waged be? tween North and South, the latter was usually acting in self-defence, and that in nea -Iv every case the Forth was the aggressor, and was en? croaching on thc equality and infringing the rights of the South. The commencement of the feud was the attempt of the North to exclude States claiming to enter the Union with slave constitutions, at the same time that free States : were admitted without dispute. It was clearly impossible that such a pretension could be tol? erated ; it was clear that those who advanced ? }t did in fact deny the equality of the slave States, and violate the first condition of Federal unity. The Missouri Compromis^ which grew out of this dispute, gave u^ tne larger part of the Federal territory l0 l?e Nor^, and gave the South on)- an e^nai r]ght lri the remin? der. In ?ifj annexation of Texas and the Mex? ican war the South might seem to be acting aggressively. But Dr. Draper himself shows that she was animated solely by considerations of sell-protection. Immigration had given the North an overwhelming ascendency in the House of "Representatives ; the only security ol the South lay in maintaining equality within the Senate, and to do this it was essential that 'she should have the means of forming new slave Slates, to counterbalance those rapidly growing up in the Northwest. All her alleged rapacity ot territory arose from this one cause. She had more land than she could cultivate with ber actual population ; in Texas and In Cuba she sought not new plantations, but new States ; not additional cotton lands, but addi? tional votes in the Federal Senate. She never claimed to control the North ; she desired only that the North Ehould not be able to domineer over her. From the moment that she gave up the hope of maintaining equality In the Sen? ate, it became evident that secession was only a question of time. From the moment that a party formed on the principle of sectional hos? tility to the South acquired the control of the Federal Executive, it was obvious that the time had come. And no one baa ever been able to maintain that the South cou d safely have re? mained in the Union save on the inadmissible hypothesis that she should have made np her mind to submit, and net only to allow her in? stitutions to be remodelled, but to allow them to be remodelled by Northern legislation. JVo ' people ever accepted such subjection till they had appealed, and appealed in vain, to the arbitra? ment of battle." Than this, no more compact statement of the position occupied by the South, and of the necessity as well as the right of Seces? sion, could, under the circumstances, be made. Dr. Draper makes it evident to 4he re? viewer that "the bombardment of FortSam "ter was in realiiy an act of self-defence, "forced upou the South by Mr. Lincoln's d?? termination to reinforce the garrison.*' The election of Mr. Lincoln was "a formal "d?claration of war agaiDSt institutio*s as "warmly cherished by the poorest white as "by the richest Blave-owner ;" and it is "an "absurd misconception of the whole Situa? tion" which ascribes the action of the South to "a conspiracy." This is candid, anti to the purpose. Of the Southern temperament and char? acter the reviewer writes as follows' : "The course of the war presents another point on which his history contradicts his the? oretical doctrines, as-to those who read lt with vigilant and open minds-it does in almost every page. Dr. Draper believes pro? foundly in the influence of climate on national character, and is perhaps the more tolerant and temperate in his treatment of Southern polity, because he imputes the preference ol slavery, the fiery temper, the independent spirit ol the South to the influences of isother? mal lines. But the records ot the war show that the climate had not affected the military character of the Southerners. They still re? semble Englishmen more than they resemble any Southern Ration ; are still distinguished by the pei'tinaciXF,- the endurance, the discipline, and the steadiness of the English soldier, while the . Northerners showed more of French Im? petuosity in the onslaught, and French liability to panic in repulse. Much more truth lies in the contrast between the family life and do? mestic ideas of North and South, as drawn, however reluctantly, by our author ; and a perusal of his work will leave the thoughtful reader impressed with new respect and sym? pathy for the thoroughly English character of the South, and with an earnest hope that, when she emerges from the gloom that still hangs over her, it will be found that the best features of her social life have survived the lall of slavery-that Vie love of home, the rev? erence for parents, the womanly and wifely virtues of one sex, the chivalry and hsnor of Vie other, still remain, as on the testimony of an enemy they once were, the characteristics of the Southern American, as of his English an? cestry." During the war the Southern people had little reason to bless their English cousins, whatever the attractive force of the noble qualities which they possess in common, but it is none the less gratifying, on this ac? count, that the first critical journal of the day should write so warmly upon subjects which lie near the Southern heart. MAJOR D. B. TOWNSEND is the President of the Cheraw and Greensboro' Bailroad Company, and not of the Cheraw and Dar? lington Railroad Company, as stated, by inadvertence, in THE NEWS of yesterday. UPON the subject of the Conference pro? posed to be bekl in the fall, the Marion Star says: "We doubt the policy of these conf?r? ences of 'leading men,' and are inclined "to think we bad as well expend no gas so "early in the campaign. 'Tis a poor general "that betrays his plaos to the enemy. When "the organization of the party for the Presi? dential campaign commences, will it not be "lime sufficient for a conference of the ' lead " 'ing men?' " iflameo.

With? in the last twenty years, however, the whole system or medical practice has been changed ror the better, in diseases or complaints caused by excessive heat, ror Instance, the doctors no longer recommend the reduction or the Invalid's strength by prostrating medicines. The vast sue cess which has attended the use or HOSTETTER'S STOMACH BITTERS as a remedy lor debility has given even the most prejudiced members ol the old Behool an Insight luto the only trne and ra? tional theory or cure. Cantharldes, calomel, and overpowering doses or opium are now among thc obsolete nostrums of another age.

The principle or life ls no longer drained from the [veins by the qaart, and water-gruel for the strengthes Invalid has ceased to be cunsldered an appropriate diet. Vigor is the motto ol the rational members of the profession, and they understand at last the value of a sterling vegetable tonic. So also with the people at large; and without consulting medical men at all, they have adopted the Bitters as a household remedy, thereby economizing both cash and health.

O, FOE THE EDUCATION' OP YOUNO LADIES, UNDI* THE IMMEDIATE SUPERVISION OP THE RELI? GIEUSES OF THE URSULINE CONVENT. The ladies of the Ursuline Community, s. C., re? spectfully annonnce to their frieads, and to the public, that the annual exercises of the Academy will commence September 1st. Their Institute being devoted to the education of youth, an 1 each member having received a long and.: ire;ul training lor that purpose, the school unjer their charge, as well in the various rountrieHf Europe as in America, have never tailed to win and retain the confidence or parents and guar? dians. Nothing will be left undone in imparting to the pupils confided to their care a thorough educa? tion, in the highest sense of the word-not alone instructing the intellect, but with maternal care guiding sui training the heart. The situation of tte Convent ls all that can be desired for health and beauty. The buildings are on elevated ground, about two mues from the Capital, and in the midst ot au oak grove of twenty acres. It is within half an hour's drive from the depot, where omnibuses and baggage wagons await the ai rival or passengers. No distinction or religion will be made (n the admission of pupils, nor will any undue influence be used over their religious principles: bat, for the maintenance of good order, aU will be requb> ed to attend the exercises of Divine worship pre? scribed for the Academy. From Individuals or societies disposed to aid in the education or yoong ladles, applications for the admission of pupils, at reduced terms, will receive the most favorable consideration that the circumstances of the school will admit. The Scholastic Year Is divided Into two Sea;lon? -the first commencing September 1st, and ending February 1st; the secund commencing February isr, and endlog July 1st.
