/ COLUMBIA. Thursday Moraine. Bec. 17, IB68. ' . 1 -; ..Wa LOVB THBH NOT AS ONCE," Ac-The Herald directs attention to the affectionate (?) manner with which the rooontly elected negro Congress? man from Louisiana is received bj the radical House. '-Lo! the poor Indian," may do Tory well, but when the darkey demands the rights to whioh they have always claimed he waa entitled, they turn up their noses and show very plainly by their con? duct that "we lovo thee not as onoe we did. " This is the extruoi.: "At first, for a long, uncomforta? ble time, he was left severely alone upon one of the sofas in the rear of the hall. The poor fellow, annoyed at the social ostracism to whioh his radical colleagues from the Northern States most illogically condemned him, arose and sought in vain for an opportunit? to seoure a desk. Every? where the radicals turned up their noses as he approached, and at length he felt compelled to leave the floor of tho House in disgust and to seek refuge in tho gallery behind tho great clock, where a hundred or more of his own race were congrega tod and kept him ih countenance." A private letter from a prominont and well-known South Carolina Re? publican, to a gentleman in New York, says: "Our prospects in South Carolina, and, I think, nil over the South, aro now very encouraging, both politically and materially. Lawlessness has ceased almost as if by meglo since the elections, and everybody seems to adopt the motto of Grant, 'Let us have peace.' Good feeling seems rapidly returning be? tween the two parties, and a promi? nont Republican is treated different from what he was only a month ago. The financial prospects of the State havo improved wonderfully within tho last two or three weeks." ?-??-> THB JANUARY MAGAZINES.-Put? nam's Monthly Magazine, for January, presents a rare table of contents. Among the contributors aro Wm. Cullen Bryant, Fennimore Cooper and Lucy H. Cooper. G. P. Putnam & Son, 661 Broadway, New York, are the publishers. The now volume begins with this number. The Galaxy-Sheldon & Co., 498 and 500 Broadway, New York-is up to the mark. It contains nearly 170 pages of interesting matter-some of it a little sensational-furnished by such authors as Eugene Benson, Mrs. Edwards and others. GEN. TOM THUMB AND TROUPE. Speaking of those little folks, who are to exhibit in Columbia, on the 19th, the St. Louis Republican says: The renowned Gen. Tom Thumb and his associates, consisting of Mrs. Thumb, Commodore Nott, and pretty little Minnie Warren, although the veriest Lilliputians in size that have ever been known, are Brobdig nags in the way of attraction. They give a levee each day at eleven o'clock, one at three, and a third at half-past seven in tho evening, yet the Mercantile Hall is filled on each occasion with adults as well as dele? gates from tho juvenile population. In addition to the exhibition of their diminutive selves singly, in pairs or altogether, and in a variety of poses and costumes, they sing, dance and amuse the and ?unces in a variety of ways too numerous to mention. Commodore Nutt is quito au actor and mimic, and displays much genuine vis c?mica in his personation of the shilelah-brandishiug Irishman. He is noticeably acute and sprightly in all he does, and Miss Miunie is a model of daintiness, prettiness and propriety. Tom Thumb and his wife demean themselves with a gra? vity and sobriety becoming in mar? ried people, yet add their quota to the general entertainment. Our readers will miss a raro spectacle if they fail to to seo them. MELANCHOLY SUICIDE.-Mr. Thos. J. Price, sr., avery aged man, com? mitted suicido in Macon, on Friday night last, by taking poison. Ho was well known as Assistant Bridgc keeper of that city. He had been luboriug under a tit of insanity for si vi ral days previous to his commit? ting this rash ?nd fatal act. Mr. Price tarns a native of South Carolina, and lived in Columbia for many } ears. Wc are informed that tho corn? cribs of Mrs. Ann Vernon, of this town, were burned at her plantation, on Tyger River, about 2 o'clock cn Saturday morning last. Tho cribs contained about 1,000 bushels of earn, the entire crop of this year. This outrageous deed was certainly tho work of an incendiary. [ Spartanb ury Sj untan.

Messages Nos. 7 and 8 from 1 Excellency the Governor were a nonnced and presented to tho Sena by Mr. John Heart, Private Seorel ry. Message No. 7 is ns follows: EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, COLUMBIA, December 15, 1868. Tu die Honorable the President of t 'Senate. Sin: The delay in transmitting t report in relation to tho Uuivorsi of South Carolina lias been <>.?< finned by my desire to avail mys of the results of tho deliberations the Board of Regents, at its rece annual meeting, on tho condition a prospects of the institution. I gather from thc prevalent t ne tb osa discussions, and also from tho opinions of intelligent citizens from various portions of the State, that a very general impression prevails that there should be an essential modifica? tion. In the constitntion of the go? verning body of the University-the Board of Trust?es. At present it consists of thirty-eight members, Of which eighteen are ex officio, includ? ing the Governor ana Lieutenant* Governor of the State, the President of tho Senate and the Speaker of the House nf Representatives, the Chair? man of the Committee of Education of the Senate and House of Repre? sentatives, respectively, the Judges of tbe Court of Appeals, the Circuit Judges of the Courts of Law, und tho Chancellors, and twenty other per? sons elected by joint ballot of the General Assembly, to hold their office for four years, and until others shall have been elected. Tho cumbrous and unwieldy char? acter of the Board, as at present con? stituted, detracts materially from it? efficiency and usefulness. Where responsibility is divided and dissi? pated among so many, it is almost in? evitable that it should bo lightly ap? preciated; and engaged as many of the Trustees are in othor important public duties, ana residing at a con? siderable distance from the capital of the State, it is not to bo wondered at, that their obligations connected with this appointment, often merely complimentary, should bo frequently overlooked and neglected. To such an extent has this been carried, that important meetings of the Board have had to be repeatedly postponed for want of a quorum, although but nine members cf tho thirty-eight were requisite for tho purpose. It has been suggested that the remedy for this evil is tho substitution of a Board of fivo or seven Trustees, se? lected fer their special capacity and aptitude for tho position, and who would be willing to devote more of their time and nttoutiou to tho im? portant trust confided to them. It has, also, been suggested that tho internal regulations of tho Uni? versity would bo moro satisfactorily managed if the election of the Chair? man of tho Faculty were loft to the members of tho Faculty themselves. Tho experience of the past two years admonishes ns that somo changes in the tuition fees oro neces? sary to popularize tho University, and bring its advantages within tho reach of tho greatest possiblo num? ber of students. The present charge of twenty-five dollars per term, for each academical school, with ten dollars additional for tho library to each student, whether used by bim or not, prevents many of the youth of tho State from enjoy? ing tho educational advantages of the institution. It is deemed advisable, therefore, to reduce tho tuition fees for each school to one-half tho pre? sent amount, and a corresponding diminution iu tho charges for the library and other extras. In order, howover, that tho Pro? fessors employed shall bo insured a reasonable compensation for their services, it is recommended that an appropriation bo made by tho State j of S2,000 per annum, for each of them, and also to allow them tho additional sum of $500 per annum from tho fees for tuition, should a sufficient amount bo received for that purpose, and if not. thon tho amount so received shall bo di ! vided among thc Professors pro I r>tt<t. All moneys received for tui? tion fees, and other sources of re? venue, shall bo deposited with tho Treasurer, and accounted for in his annual report, or at any time when called on by thc Board of Trustees. Tho Board of Trustees havo au? thorized a committee of tho body, if deemed advisable, to arrange with tho State for an increase of freo scholarships, on tho basis of annual appropriations for the salaries of the Faculty. A small appropriation-say about $600-is required for necossary rc vuirs to the University buildings. I have submitted briefly such sug? gestions in reference to tho Univer? sity as I deem important to its pros? perity and tho public interests, and earnestly invite to thom your care? ful consideration, pledging myself to cheerfully co-operato in carrying out the policy which may bo designated by you. There are many matters of detail which will appropriately come np for the action of the now Board of Trus? tees, should tho changes recom? mended bo adopted by you. Very respectfully, ROBE KT K. SCOTT, Govornor. Roferrcd to tho Committee on Education. Message No. 8 transmitted a re? port of Hon. J. L.

A HEEMAPnEODiTE. -In Vienna, Catherine Hohnann, a native of Ba? varia, is exhibiting herself at tho present time to tho physicians and naturalists of tho Austrian capital. She is neither a man nor a woman, but a lus tis natura?, a caso of hernia phrodisia vera laleralis. A journalist who saw ber, writes to tho Vienna Press: "I pitied the poor creature. * Although in good health, and of ro- \ bust, even beautifully shaped form, she sat boforo mo in deep distress and wept. And she has wept al? ready a great deal in her joyless life. She loved aman for twelve years; he loved her, too, and even proposed to her to go with him to America,where nobody would know of her misfor? tune; he would live with her there and bo happy with her. But she re? fused ^to accept his j generous offer, saying she would not make him un? happy. And then sho loved, dread? ful to say, for seven months-a young girl. Both of them were greatly attached to each other, until the .young girl finally turned from her and married. 'From this time forward,' says tho poor hermaphro? dite, 'I could no longer look at the girl; I hated her.' The most con? flicting feelings always surge in her breast and torment her heart. She feels love for both sexes, and does not belong to either. 'What shall I do hero on oarth?' she exclaimed; 'what am I? In my lifo, an object of scientific experiment, and, after my death, an anatomical curiosity!' " Tho rumors of vast unexplored gold fields in South-east Africa aro generally credited. Tho Governor of Natal, some timo ago, expressed his firm belief of the existence of the precious metals in that district, and recently a member of the legislative council writes that there eau now be scarcely a doubt that a large region, bordering and extending to tho North? ward of tho river Limpopo, has for ages yielded gold to tho natives, who have obtained tho precious metal by means of tho simplest processes and thc rudest appliances. . ? ? ?
