'-The British Government have granted a pension of ?5000 a year to Lady Mayo, and one of ?$0,000 to her children. -An exchange announces, a wild serial en? titled "Quick as Lightning, or the Chemist's Journey ; a tale of altrc-glyceilne." -The Italian fleet has been ordered to be ready to sall for the SpanlBh coast' in order to provide for the not Improbable contingency of King Amadeus's sudden departure from Spain. -The Chicago Post misanthropically re? marks that "Nils son has Invested ber $400,000 In America because she loves the country, and the rates of interest are so much higher than In Europe." -It ls now said that when the restoration of the Column Vendome takes place the "classi? cal" statue which crowned lt will be replaced by the "Little Corporal," In bis famous gray coat, as appealing more strongly to the popu? lar sentiment. -The squabble between the proprietors of the St. Louis Democrat has ended in the pur? chase of the paper by Fisuback, one of the disagreeing partners.

McCullough remains the chief editor. -The rate of taxation in North Carolina for the coming year IE less than lour mills on the dollar, or 38? cents on every one hundred dol? lars' worth of property. This tax 1B levied by a Democratic Stale Government, whose econ? omy has enabled lt to impose so moderate a borden upon the people. -It is said that John Bussell Young, for? merly of the Tribune, writes the leaders in the Herald sustaining Grant. He is in Wash? ington, and most of his articles are for? warded by telegraph-after being duly can? vassed over clg&TB and old Bourbon at the White House. -A curious confirmation of the truth of Thackeray's assertion that a lady could not write a letter without underscoring some of the words was shown in Queen Victoria's * recent letter to the people, acknowledging her gratification at the enthusiastic reception with which she was greeted. In lt three words were underscored. -Hackett, the actor, before he died, mar? ried bis Irish maid-servant. She was a good wife, and Is a very estimable woman. He was seventy years old when he married her, and she was about twenty-five. The fruit of the marriage ls a son. Hackett's will has just been admitted to probate. He leaves the bulk of his property to his son, entlrly ignoring Re? corder Hackett, who ls his Bon by his Ant wife. -A careful calculation as to the number of human beings addicted to cannibalism at the present time gives a total of only a fi ac? tion inside of two millions, which actually re? presents the six hundred and ninetieth part of the whole population ol tbe globe. The motives assigned beyond mere hunger, in? duced by dearth of other animal food, are the passions of revenge and hatred, as well as re? ligious sentiments and gloomy superstition. -Mr. Charles B. M. Moulton, husband of Mrs. Lillie Moulton, who bas sung io concerts durlog the past season, died at Cambridge, Mass., last week, at the age of forty-three years. He had been in delicate health for some lime, but his deaih was quite unexpect? ed. It will be remembered that Mr?. Moulton cancelled her engogamenta once this season on account of bis failing health, but it was thought he had temporarily recovered, and she began her concert tour again. This bas now been abruptly ended. . -In the rapid progress of political events ! those who lag behlud must necessarily be ne? glected or forgotten. But there is one name, the omission of which by presidential prog? nosticators at the present lime may surprise I many. It is tbat of Chief Justice Chase. But the truth ls, Mr. Chase's health is so extremely poor that he may be considered a confirmed Invalid. This truth he does not attempt to conceal, even from himself, and he acknowl? edger that "human ambition has become a dead sentiment to him.*1 -The New York Tribune, of Friday, says : 'Directives have been for some time on the truck ot the robbers of several South Carolina banks, and yesterday Deputy Sheriff Jarvis re? ceived a requisition from the Governor ol South Carolina, approved by Governor Hoff mao, for the arrest of J. L. Steavens, < these alleged robbers, and his delivery U ert Shiver, who 1B charged with the di taking Steavens to South Carolina. O r?quisition Mr. Jarvis arrested a young who passes under the name o? D. B. Bbet claims to be an Iron merchant lrom CD) and ls the person interested in manuiact and selling the "charm bell?," sold as rei the Chicago fire. A man named Sample tl?es Eoerhard as a person who is kno him as J. L. SteavenB, and who sold to I quantity of bank notes and bills of bi banks said to have been a portion ol money stolen from the South Carolina b Eberhard strenuously denies this, claim it ls a case of mistaken Identity, and ca support his statements George P. Smith resides at the Hoffman House. Mr. Smlt clares that Eberhard is not 8teavens, and Sample is mistaken, and he has glvei sheriff references which have excited re able doubts in the mind o? that officer." Watch ?nd Walt. The Columbia Phoenix thinks that honest members of the Republican part; disgusted with the management of the p affaira, and that the Democracy ah allow them, this time, to make the step. Let the independent Republi make the tight, and the white people of State can snpport them at the polls. -These views appear to be concorrt by nearly all the Conservative papers ic State. There is some difference o! opi as to the details of the policy proposed; the people seem resolved to move slo and to Beize every favorable opportnnit; improving their condition. It is unq tionably trne that there are serions J ivis in the ruling party-divisions which only be healed by a common danger, io shape of a Democratic opposition to warring Radical factions. This would ct the leaders of the factions to fraternize statuer, and the party would go to the 5 as compactly and as blindly as in 1870. need not, therefore, expect to run in De eratic candidates, because the Radicals now engaged in the profitable bnsines catting each other's throats. II we let tl alone and do nothing, they will contii their bickering, and in nearly every coe there will be two Bets o? Radical candida This will induce one of the two seclionE nominate far better men than are ever c sen when every Republican must either v for bis party candidate or for the candid of the Democracy. A liberal, well-mean, Republican will choose the best o? the J publican tickets submitted for bis appro? bot if the choice lie between Republican s Democrat, he will certainly take the Rept Bean, BO strict ia party discipline. The white people of the State hold 1 balance of power. What they desire a need is an honest and intelligent adm i 0 ist tioD of the a Hu irs of the State. This is m< 'imporUrht to each and every one of us th; the fallare or the success of any politic party. _ _ The Democratic Party. [From the Columbia Sooth Carolinian.] It will be observed that a peculiar reticen has long characterized the represen tall vc m and leaders of the National Democracy, our judgment this Is wise. Not only in Sou Carolina, but In the United Si ates In pener our public affairs are in a critical, au unsat factory condition. Here, as well ai elsewhere, we hold that tl general policy called ior is obviously for tl Democracy to bold ilseli ieady to move whe ever the voice? of duty and patriotism mi call. ! Ii gcod men of all parties unite in the n cesslty of reform aad a change of admnlstr Hon, there is no reason why they should n cordially unite to accomplish these great r suits. Here in Soulh Carolina, and also in tl country at large, we should sink minor diffe enees and move for the common good. Let the Democratic party, remaining unite be ready to throw Its heavy columns where vi the best blows may be given for the publ good. ? _ New Booka. MABEL LES. A Novel. By the author of Yi lerle Aylmer, Morton House, ?fee. Wiih Ulm (rations. New York: D. Appleton <fc Ct 1872. Charleston : Holmes's Book House. We assume that Mabel Lee, although pul llshed later, is an earlier work than the tw novels by which the author is best knowo, an upon which, for the present, her reputatlo rests. Its strong points are the charming pk turea of Southern lite and Southern scenerj the polished and unaffected dialogue, and tb ingeniously devised plot with which Ya! erl Aylmer and Morton House have made the put lie pleasantly familiar. It ls imbued with th same lofty purity of thought, and elevation c sentiment ; but lt is far from being the artist! equal of its predecessors. Most of the cbarac acters have very little true individuality. The; are carefully described; but they do not be come, to the reader, living realities, so dis: i nc and separate, the one from the other, that I may be confidently predicted what, under an: circumstance?, they, will say and do. It 1: evident, Indeed, that the author bas not mad< her heroes, at all times, consistent with them selves. The reader is sedulously reminded, for inetance, that Phillp Conway may be ex? pected to prove as big a scamp as his profligate father. He ls told that this handsome spend? thrift ls a cynic, and is food of gaming and rac? ing. The opening chapters show him to be pet? ulant and flippant. And in the twinkling of an eye, at the crisis of the story, he becomes digni? fied, earnest and self-contained-a model of sensitive honor and gentlemanly propriety. Of course, the reader must take lt for granted that a passionate love workB the happy meta? morphosis, but it is an artistic defect that we have no hint of the mental process by which the result is reached. Nor is a sufficient rea? son given for the conduct of Ainslie. His ex? planation of his motives is not borne out by his words and demeanor during the halcyon days ""jfrsey ton House. We m in ht also suggest that the public like to be told what is the fate of all the prominent characters. It does not satisfy us when the curtain falls so suddenly that we only know that Hero wears widow's weeds, and that of Leander's bones is coral made. We reiraln lrom describing the plot, for the reason that we do not wish to deprive the pub? lic ol the gratification of solving for them? selves the mystery of the disappearance of Mabel Lee. The scene ls laid in the Carolinas, the d?nouement taking place in Charleston; and the graces of its style, the dainty bits of description and stirring incidents make ita novel which, once begun, will not willingly be laid aside until the last word is read. But lt has blemishes which might have been avoided, and we have not hesitated to point them out. The high opinion we entertain of the merits of Valerie Aylmer, and ot* its worihy successor, Morton House, prompts us to urge the author not to abate a jot of study and care In elabora? ting ber productions. Unless we are sadly 1 mistaken, Hiss Fisher can obtain and retain the first place among the novelists o? the South, and may reach the iront rank of the writers of American fiction. But the public, especially her own people, expect of her that any ten? dency to Braddonlsm shall be repressed, and that there shall be a steady Improvement in the conception and execution ol whatever she undertakes. They are not ready to admit tbat she has reached the matu til y of her splendid powers. A bountiful Nature and thorough culture have done much. Time, experience and an enlargement ol the circle of her per? sonal knowledge ol the world of bard fact and sad reality, may be trusted to do the rest Pp. 162. Paper. Price IL BIGHTED AT LAST. A Novel. With Illustra? tions. D. Appleton ? Co., New Tork. 1872. Charleston : Holmes's Book House. Hauy a worse novel than this finds a willing publisher nowadays. It drags somewhat, and the characterl and situations are not particu? larly original! yet lt is reasonably interesting, and just misses being a work of considerable merit. There ie no ''blood and thunder" In Its pages, and to some classes of readers lt will doubtless be exceedingly attractive. Paper. Pp. 172. Price $1. ijostetter's Sitters. ~l?rWHAT SPUING BEINGS WITH IT. Regarded from a medical standpoint, Spring ls not the delectable season described by vernal poets. On the contrary, its yield of intermittent fevers, bilious attacks, rheumatic ; alns, disor? ders of the stomach, nervous complaints, and pulmonary di eaBes, Is altsoit as large as its crop of violets, snovrdrjps and cherry blossoms. The invisible seeds or Innumerable maladies rise with the morning mists, and are scattered broadcast by the vapors or mr:nt. Who can resist their mephltlc influence? Certainly not the weak by nature, or those whose nervous energies have been overtasked by mental or physical labor, un? less they tone and Invigorate their systems, and thus enable the_a to cope with the unhealthy in? fluences by which they are surrounded. The o-iy mc ile.nal egent by whlCi this object can be rapidly and safely accomplished li the great vegetab e r?novant and Invigorant, Hi s TETTERS S. OMACH BITTERS. Tne operation o? thiB celebrated specific ls four-fold. It strength? ens the digestive organs, regulates the secretions, improves the condition of the bio d, su peru doces a regular habit of body, and thereby Imparts such vigor and elasticity to the whole physical structure as to render it capable of resisting the action or the poisonous miasma, ?iib which tbe spring atmosphere is always to some exteut im? pregnated. Here, then, ls a ready and certain means of escaping the disorders prevalent at this season, or (If they bave already fastened upon the system) or conquering them speedily and thor? oughly.
