The singers are accordingly charged with ingratitude. -The Jewish Messenger says that the Hebrew libraries were always open on the seventh day or Jewish Sabbath. It adds : "We never heard of an Israelite objecting to read on the Sabbath, orto look at pictures either.". -Regarding Prince Bismarck's-Illness, the Lancet has authority tor stating that Hie nerv? ous exhaustion, due to anxiety overwork, has resulted in sleeplessness of such persist? ency that retirement from official duty is im? peratively required. -There ts to be (inite an Influx of English Immigrants into Virginia. Fifty families have recently settled near Gordon s vi l le, and anot lier. English party is now.prospecting in that State with the Intention of purchasing twenty-five thousand acres of land. -The Roanoke News says a boy in Weldon, N. C., has made fifteen hundred dollars clear in lour years peddling oranges and peanuts on the trains muni og into that town, and had. but forty cents to start on; and he has attended school every day besides. That>boy deserves to get along lil the world. ? -Gustave Dore is about to challenge the opinion of toe world of art on a grand scale.

The subject of this large composition ls "Christ Leaving the Temple," and lt con? tains about four hundred figures. -The topography of Vesuvius ls reported to be completely changed since the eruption. A correspondent, writing from Naples, says: ?It ls as though an earthquake had altered everything. Hills have appeared where, but a few days ago, stones stood for visitors to rest noon. Precipices have been formed which almost prevent further advance. All ls. altered; the very shape of tue mountain has lost Its well-known outlines, and the view ls appalling." -London has a new sensation in the person of a new tenor, ^gnor Cam pan mi, who ls said to be the long-looked-for successor of Mario, who "brok?all hearts like chinaware twenty /golden yearn ago." The new tenor, is thus de-, scribed by the Athenasnm: "He is above the ?middle height, with good features, and that essential one, a good eye. His action ls easy, unconstrained'and graceful; he commands the stage. Hie voice comes frqja the chest, and in Its range ls equal la quality-the four notes up to B flat he cm sing with ringing loree." - ?he accounts relating to the whereabouts of Dr. Livingstone are of late of a rather con? tradictory character. . At a recent meeting .of tbe Boyal Geographical Society In London, Sir FI. Rawlinson remarked t bat the .-opinion of the council of the society was favorable to the authenticity of the intelligence received b?telegram-announcing the-great explorer's safety; but lt Waa believed that if there had been any discovery, lt was Dr. Livingstone who had discovered Mr. Stanley, and not Mr. S tan rey who had discovered. and relieved Dr. Livingstone.* Tbe reason given for taking this view of the subject was, that by tbe last accounts they knew that Mr. Stanley was without supplies, and must have undergone much difficulty In gelling to Ujiji, whereas .this place-was Dr. Livingstone's headquarters. -We find in the Paris Journal the following Interesting intelligence relating to the suc? cess which onr travelling Princess has met with In the fashionable world of Parla : '-Miss Grant ts one of the most highly educated Women In Europe.- She speaks with facility English, German, French ana Italian. She has contributed under the veil of an anony? mous signature to several American maga? zines; and on her return to her own country she is tb marry the Bon of one of the richest manufacturera ot New York, who is a member Of the American Parliament." Along with tels important Information, the Paris Journal states that Hiss Grant's journey In Europe bas BO political character, and that no misunder? standing between France and the United States ls likely to arise from any point of ?ti? quette connected with ft. -,-Mme. Pattl-Caux ls really going to tear herself from her admirers over the water and return to America. She has announced that the next will be her last season lo Europe lor some time. The furore concerning her ap? pears to have Increased rather than abated. She had a benefit lately at Vienna, the opera was "La Travlata," and she was called out over one hundred times, and actually nearly smothered with bouquets. It is said to have been funny to see her try to relieve herself from tee miss of flowers with which she was surrounded, by adroit movements ot her feet; wbUe retuning her acknowledgments, for the bouquets really interfered wlih her making a graceful retreat Irom tee atoge. She receives sixteen hundred dollars per night, and scarce? ly makes an appearance without being the re ciplett ot some Jewel of rvalue, and olten seve ral offerlng8.arermade at her shrine ia. one evening. -Germany has decided against denomlna tlonalcontrol in education. The. education bill which bas Just passed the North German Parliament provides that every township of one hundred Inhabitants shall have a school, to be provided for by tho government, with whom shall rest the appointment o? teachers ana the providing of apparatus and suitable premises. The selection ot teachers shall be governed by education and collegiate train? ing, and persons of all denominations shall be eligible, provided they toke oath not to In? culcate their particular dogmas. The text books shall be the best known on each parti? cular subject, and the highest development In each of tee sciences shall be aimed at. The dally exercises are to be opened by the recita . lion ol'the Lord's Prayer. No clergyman of j any denomination will bc permitted to impart in school instruction of a religious nature; and any tutor so doiugwlllbe summarily dis? missed. The County Convention. The Democratic Convention for Charles? ton County met yesterday, and adopted reso? lutions emphatically endorsing the Cincin? nati candidates and platform, and requesting the delegates to the State Convention to use every effort to so shape the action of that body as to throw the whole influence of the State against any nomination by tho Baltimore Convention other than that of Greeley and Brown. This action is thoroughly in accord with the opinions of the Bemocrats and Conservatives of the county, and it only remains now to give effect to it by working manfully to secur9 the representation of the State in the Na? tional Democratic Convention by citizens who will not be overcome by the bullying or blandishments of the advocates of a straight Democratic ticket. The whole proceedings of tho convention were dignified, harmoni? ous and patriotic. The Phainix on the Convention. In the following parngrap h the Columbia Phoenix sums up its reasons for opposing the sending of delegates from South Caro? lina to the National Democratic Conven? tion : To sum up, we maintain that for South Car? oona to send delegates ti* Baltimore would be Improper, unwise and useless. Improper be? cause we have no D?mocratie party, and do not propose to bav? one; unwise because lt will prejudice uif. cause ot Greeley and Brown with me colored people, und, wiiat is worse, Impair our influence lor reform in the State Government; and useless because Greeley aud Brown will, In all probability, be endorsed anyway, and because Som li Carolina would exert equal If uot greater influence In teat di? rection by remaining away than, by casiing 1 the few votes to which she is entitled. l here is not a siogie proposition in this [ statement of reasons which will bear scru? tiny; it is a bold begging of the question from beginning to end. The Phoenix says that we huve no Democratic party in this State, and "do not propose to have one." What authority has our contemporary for making this assertion ? There are fifty or tifty-livo thousand white voters in South Carolina.who have always acted and voted with the Democratic party. At the State elections, two years ago, no Democratic or? ganization was had, because it was held that j the contest was not one in which party issues were iuvolved. An attempt was made to unite the good men of both political parties for the purpose of reforming the State government. That attempt was - a failure, and the Reform party was, very un? wisely, disbanded. But there was nothing in the movement to show that the Demo? crats of tho Stale had abandoned their party name and party associates, so os to exclude themselves from any further participation in ihe councils of the Democracy of the coun? try. We do not suppose that the Phoenix will venture to declare that the white citi? zens whom it professes to represent are Re? publicans. It says they are noL Democrats ; it knows they are not Republicans. What are they ? Sorely it is not seriously suggest? ed that the' nine-tenths of the white population of South Carolina who stead? fastly oppose Radical misrule, are miserable nondescripts, afraid to join tho ono party and ashamed to cling to the other. The Phoenix knows perfectly well that these white citizens of South Carolina are called Democrats by their opponents, and that, amongst Ihem 8 al ves, they go by no other name. They are ibat or-nothing! Bot tho Phoenix will doubtless say that there is as much assump? tion in declaring that the whites are Demo? crats, as in declaring that we have no Dem? ocratic party. This may be. The people, uot the press, moat decide this point. There is before.the people a call for a State Demo? cratic Convention. That Convention is io itself the best possiole reply to the state? ment which the Phoenix makes. If the people of any county rc fuse to send delegates to that Convention, wo shall all be justin ed in assuming that there are no Democrats in that county; unless, indeed, the people give some, other* reason for their inaction. But j until the people, npon tire call of the regu? larly constituted Democratic Committee, re? fuse to assemble in Convention, upon the ground that there is no Democratic party to hold meetings and elect delegates, the Phanix takes too much npon itself in an? nouncing that we have "no Democratic "party" in this State, and "do not propose to have one" The Phoenix proposes, bat the people disposo I The second point made by the Phoenix bas already been answered. It is not ad? vised, in any quarter, that Democratic can? didates for State or county offices bo nomi? nated i'frthis*canvass; and the State Demo? cratic Convention can so declare. We be? love that nearly every white man in the State, not an office-holder, will vote for Greeley and Brown if they be endorsed or nominated at Baltimore. One great object in sending delegates to Baltimore is to cast the vote of South Carolina in favor of the Liberal Republican candidates, and against Democratic nomination. This action, coupled with the knowledge that no Demo? cratic nominations for the State will bo made, can neither prejudice our cause wit j the colored people, nor impair our influence for refera in tho State government. It is painfully illogical to say that the determina? tion of the wi te citizens to support Gree? ley and Brown will turn the colored people against those candidates. And if that were so, what would become of the mass ratifi? cation meetings which the Photnix proposed to hold ? To have any value those meetings must represent the mass of the voters, and at every meeting most o? the persona present would bo wbitea Would noL this prejudice the cause of Greeley and Brown ? The Phoenix may say that these rn?tings would do no harm, because not Democratic. It is Loo late to try that game. The blacks re? gard the whites as Democrats, and call them so and treat them as such, whatever, the name by which they go.. Any movement originating with the native whites, and car? ried on by them, will be accepted as a Dem? ocratic movement, whatever hybrid title it enjoys. Thc movement for State reform must come from the Republicans-the three and four year old Republicans-and what? ever of honesty and decency there may be in that party will certainly not be repelled by the unmistakable willingness of the old Democracy, in both State and National affairs, to make common cause with the Re? publicans for the purpose of purifying anti regenerating the government. The dictum of the Phoenix amounts to this: Any man or party whom the while citizens of South Carolina support, cr are willing to support, is ipso facto condemned to political per? dition 1 The third point made by our contempo? rary is hardly worthy of serious examination. It is not by any meaos certain thut Greeley and Brown will be "endorsed any way," and it is idle to say that Soulh Ciroliuu, by ab? senting herseir from the Baltimore Conven? tion, will exert a greater influence than if she is present. When present, she has the weight due to the arguments and votes of her delegates. When absent, she can do absolutely nothing to aid the causo which her people have at heart. TUE Abbeville Press is squarely in favor of sending delegates to thc Baltimore Con? vention. A meeting is called to elect dele? gates to the State Convention. THE citizens of Williamsburg meet on Monday to elect delegates to the State Democratic Convention. TUE delegates to represent Spartanburg in the State Convention will be elected next Monday. DEWBERRY Couut.y elects delegated to the State Convention on Monday next. N,n> Publications. TUT DESERT *tTF TUE EXODUS.
