This case will be tried before tbe first chamber ol the elv??tribuaal at the beginning of the next j term. By'"delivering" the Life of Caesar, means sending copies gratis to function? aries, reviewers and landlords ot country Inns, who : were the only persons that could be In? duced to take them.

We say a victory, although a compromise was effected, for tbe arrangement j Is one that advances the wages of tbe men and lessens the hours of labor. The agree? ment is, briefly: "Thai the working hours be fifty-two and a hali per week for Joiners In shops all the year round, and fifty-two and a half hours per week for forty weeks in som? mer and forty-eight hours tn winter for out? door work, the wages being eight and a half penoe per hour all the year. Overtime to be paid at the rate of nine and a hair pence for the first hoar, ten anda hali pence for the second and third hours, and one shilling and three-quarter pence lor every hour after? wards." A resolution was also agreed upon to refer all future disputes In the trade to con? ference or to arbitration. -Soys a correa po o de n t of tbe London Tele? graph i "The glories of Biarritz, I find, have departed.

"My letter, Blr. ls sufficiently clear to myself, and if not to others, I can't help lt." The reporter made a desperate final effort to ascertain il O'Conor would Berve, ii spontaneously elected President, but he re? fused absolutely to answer. Imperator Ulysses. Before Grant was even nominated, a conn try papor in Virginia came out with the startling announcement, "For Emperor "Ulysses Grant." The article was a good deal copied and commented on, but it was hard to tell from ita tone whether the edi? tor was in earnest or not. After Grant's election, a really earnest effort was made in behalf of imperialism. "The Imperialist," started in New York, and conducted with ability, lived bnt a short time, and with it died apparently all serious thoughts of a thorough change in our form of govern? ment But, of late, tue subject bas revived. Gram's candidacy for a second term has set many long heads to work. Governor Short? er, o? Alabama, puts the pertinent ques? tion, "Shall it be Caesar or Cinclnnatus ?" To which Wendell Phillips replies, "Long "live Ulyeses S. Grant ! May he continue "to be President of the United States until "every white man over forty years of age, "who lives South of Mason and Dixon's line, "bas been put forever into the ground." And bis Massachusetts auditors applauded loudly and long. Mr. nunter, In his carefully-weighed ad? dress, tells the New Yorkers that there is more danger of the Empire than they sup? pose. Much is to be said on both sides, and he is not prepared to say that be who hearti? ly prefers a Monarchy or an Empire to a Republic is either a knave or a fool. When a statesman of Mr. Hunter's reputation for sense and discretion says this openly, it is time for the mass of the people to put on their Considering Caps. The Virginia editor to whom we have alluded may have been in earnest, in jump? ing to a conclusion which many Bbared with bim after the downfall ot the Confederacy. On the other band, his purpose may bave beena subtle one to defeat Grant. Had tbe Southern press followed his ene and come out wltb general unanimity in favor of Grant as Emperor, one of two things would have followed. Either the North, taking alarm, would have rejected Grant, or else, accept? ing the Southern view of imperialism as an inevitable result of the war, they would have vested him with that power, truly im? perial, which is now lodged in the "National L?gislature." Ia that event, recognizing bis Indebtedness to tbe first promulgators and advocates of imperialism, Grant wonld have bestowed the lion's share of honors upon Southern men. As lt is, if the Empire now come to pass, the South will be left out in the cold. Bat a few Bourbons will be signally rewarded. L;VU. rv nt oe ii HUM-, J. oom os an Earl, [ Stephens a Page ol the imperial bedchamber, Mosby an Equerry of the royal stables, and Blanton Duncan a Field Marshal and Prime Minister at the least.

No Convention. m The Sumter Watchman, In noticing the pro? posed call of a Conservative State Convention, says: "The people of different localities, too, "will think and act for themselves, as circum? stances or Interests may Indicate; and upon "the whole, we think lt decidedly the wiser "course, looking to the future good of the "State, as Involved In tbe future influence ol "tbe Conservative element ot the State, to re? frain Irom any attempt at concerted coo "ventlonal action." A Charleston Novel. EBB-TIDE. A Novel. By Christian Reid. Au? thor of Morton House. Valerie Aylmer, Mabel Lee, Ac. With Illustrations by Alfred Fredericks. New York: D. Appleton A Co. The novels of Miss Frances Fi sher are widely read, especially in the South; and yet she has not received the meed of substantial praise to which she ls entitled. Kind words have not be?n wanting. Miss Fisher bas not, how? ever, been accepted by her public as the first of living writers of fiction in me Southern suites. This ls tbe position she now bolds, and that lt is not everywhere confessed is due far more to indolence than to any ignorance other merit. There Is an Impression abroad that the woman of genius can make her way, in spite ol the "critical calm" of those for whom she labors. This Is true, and Mles Fisher cannot be put down. Nevertheless we owe it to a Southern woman whose kinsmen poured out their blood for the South-who loves her country devotedly, without cherish? ing a bitter thought, or uttering a harsh word, against the victorious North-that we should cheer her and praise her, not only be ! cause ol her own great gilts, but also because of the honor which she wins for a people whom lt is the fashion to decry. We do not desire to be understood as saying that Miss Fisher approaches tbe front rank of European novelists. Upon previous occasions we have pointed out ber faults ot construc? tion and style. These remain; but In the ex? quisite purity of her works, in her glowing descriptions of scenery, in ber crisp and spark? ling dialogue, In the nobility of ali her aims, we find ample room for eulogy, and abundant reason for speaking ot ber as highly as we do. Miss Fisher's writings are rich In whatever Nature could bestow. Their short-comings arise from a want of that bard experience or life which growB out of a wide acquaintance with men and things. The remaining blem? ishes will steadily grow less, and might have entirely disappeared ere now had not the cruel necessity of bread-winning precluded the Biudy and elaboration needed for complete success. What we mean we cannot better explain tuan in the language of Miss Fisher herself. In the novel before us, this description ls given of a sea-piece painted by the heroine: "A stranger could "scarcely have believed that this beautiful "conception was from the hands of a girl of "twenty, whose art-training had been of that -entirely amateur kind which ls bestowed "upon young ladies who have a weakness for "spoiling canvas and wasting paint. There "was nob? of the weak prettiness which "usually damns even the beat of such efforts; "the very faults 'o? the piece were faults of "power, and there was a dramatic intensity "about the whole scene which proved-more "conclusively even than the wonderful color? ing-tho God-given power ot the born ar "tisi." This la what we feel in reading the novela of Misa Fisher. Most of the characters In Ebb-Tide are resi? dents ot Charleston, where the opening Bcenes are laid. We give the picture of a May-day morning on the Battery: Ten o'clock, on a glorious May day, with the freshly-risen sea-breeze sweeping over the sparkling waters ol Charleston Harbor; the bright sun gilding all things with a flood of golden glory; the while shipping dazzling ihe ?yes like snow; the wooded Bhorea clothed ina royal gaiment of solt purple mist; the stalely city throned like a queen between her "swiftly-flowing" rivers, while the surf or the great Atlantic beats like music at her feet; a fragrance ol roses pervadins the air, and an abounding sense ox glory and vitality In the buoyant atmosphere ! Nature has opened all her choicest stores on this marvellously lovely day, this 15th of May, 185-; lhere is not a tint kDown to art which she Is not wearing, and many-how many ?-for which art has neither name nor power to reproduce. Out on the sea there is an opalescent glory, changing and shuting with every gleam ot light that catches the foam-crested waves as they rise and chase each other like merry children in the sunshine ! The land seems panting under il s wealth of loveliness, of fragrance and or bloom ! Everywhere ls spread earth's match? less livery of green and gold; every breath of air is flower-scented; every sound-even toe city's distant hum ol pleasure and traffic-Is subordinate to the divine anthem which the mvrlad voices of nature are chanting-the sweet invitation which they give to the cb 1 dren of men. "Come !" say the waves In their soft tones of ceaseless, rhythmic music. "Come !" echo tbe happy songs of birds, the merry chirp of the great, invisible insect world. "Come !" whisper the breezes solter lhaa those ot Araby the Blest. "Come !" murmur the trees, gently swaying their emer? ald leaves, and flinging graceful shadows over the velvet turf-"come and be happy !" And how few answer !-how lew do not go on their way, be it to funeral or to reast, with blinded eyes and deafened ears ! Yet, lo those who love her as Bhe should be loved, ls not Nature God's ambassador upon earth, speak I og, in every quiver of her wondrous Hebt and shade, "glad tidings of great Joy ?" O rare, sweet ?magna maier ! In all this weary. slB-laden, Buflerlng-sieeped world, there is nothing like to thee; there ls no Joy like thy Joy, no beauty like thy beauty, no glory like thy glory; thou who art still as lair and young and ires h as when thy first dew-drops glittered in the sun? light ol the creation morning, and even thy gracious Maker owned that thou wert "good !" And who would see this noble mistress in her most royal mood, wbo would worship at her most royal shrine, must seek her where she loves best to dwell-under the deep-blue Southern sky, by the purple Southern waters, tar in tbe gorgeous depths and dim receses of the aromatic Southern woods ! Nowhere else does she bold out ber arms with such a tender embrace; nowhere else does che woo IIB with such regal charms; nowhere else does she wear such robes of state as clothe her amid the glory and beauty of these en? chanted scenes. Yet a girl who stands on the pleasant Bat? tery, leanlug against the railing, and looking with wistful eyes lar adown the bright bay lo Ute broad ocean beyond, seems wholly uncon? scious of all the witchery 'round her. .She has lilted her hat forward so os to keep the Bun out of her eyes, and there Bhe leans, a motion? less, absorbed figure, heeding the cut loua glances of the lew loiterers who come und go us little as the boundless gloiy ol' earth, and sea, and sky. A vessel ls jost crossing the bar Into the harbor; the day is so wonderfully olear that, through "The pnrple noon's transparent light," lt ls possible to catch a glimpse of the spars and rigging outlined against the sky-no hor? rible, ugly steamer, belching lorlh black smoke, but a graceful sailing-vessel, with slen? der masts and snow-white canvas, outspread like an angel's wings. The girl lifts an opera glass to her eyes, and gazes eagerly-oh, BO eagerly 1-toward the new-comer, the strang? er, perhaps, tbe friend lt may be. Two or J three nurses, accompanied by children, pass, and, stoppln?, gaze also, open-mouthed, at the cloud of canvas lar away. Tney can find nothing remarkable about lt, however; BO, after a lime, they continue their promenade. Other nurses follow, other children scamper g?8feesee MWl??VWSS^? then 1 uutuo iwo mates, (veneu so os to effectually shut out all possibility of enjoying the day;) then an old gentleman, walking leisurely with bis hands bebind hi? back; then a young gen? tleman on horseback, who looka keenly at the graceful, motionless figure with the opera glass levelled (apparently) at Fort Sumter; men a tall, handsome girl, who, ascending the steps, walks directly up to the figure Iii question and touches Its arm. Io Borne respects, Ebb-Tide ls the best of ? Miss Fisher's novels. The heroine ls a win? some thing wbo steals the reader's heart away; J who suffers and ls strong. Tbe hero ls very much like other heroes, but the type ls one that .11 of us admire. Madelon Lau tree is a care? fully drawn character, attractive even in her moral deformity. The villain of the story is a j I smooth-spoken rascal who, as In real life, escapes the punishment he deserves. MIBB Fisher also gives us a capital specimen ol the match-making mamma, and the spoiled blonde beauty. Tbe draw-back: ls that all the young women are exquisitely lovely, and all the men strikingly handsome. This, unfortunately for the world, ls not true to nature. We should prefer to meet with a sprinkling of ugliness, if only lor the sake of contrast. There IP, besides, so much ilch coloring that lt threat-] ens to cloy. An occasional stretch of cold, vigorous writing would give greater effect to the rich descriptions of Southern and tropical scenery. In saying tbis, we have finished our fault-finding. The conversations are spark? ling, and there is, here and lhere, a flash ol unexpected wit. Ebb-Tide is an lndesorlba bly touching story. In the English tongue, there ls no loftier sentiment or truer pathos than ia lound in the scene which closes the evenliul history. The plot we retrain from describing. Miss Fisher is making progress. Let her I remain where she Is, and she is still without a rival In America. Let her advance for len years, BB she advances now, and she will be DO unworthy rival of the queens ot English flcllon. In the same volume with Ebb-Tide are three short sketches, lively and spirited, but ol the kind known to artists as "pot-boilers." No words of ours are needed, we are confident, to insure for Miss Fisher's tatest novel the support and favor of the public. For sale at Holmes's Book House. Price $1. financial.
