COLUMBIA. Thursday Morning. Dec isl 18?8. The latest news from Eastern Europe is of a more pacific obarao ter. Some of the mest scssatio?al despatches, received several days ago, .are contradicted. The Greek steamer Erosis has not been sank by tho Turks; the Turkish Embassador has not left Athens, nor the Greek Embassador Constantinople. The Greeks, moreover, it is now asserted, are by no means unanimous in favor of war; for while the Athenians are exultant over the warlike prospoot, tho deputations from Nauplla, Pa? iros, Corfu and Corinth, protest against a war policy as being ruinous to the interests of Greece. A still w^htier argument in favor of the maintenance of penco is the una? nimity of the great powers in coun? seling both Turkey and Greeco to come to terms. Greece has been ad? vised that sho cannot rely on Russia, which limits itself to insisting on greater moderation on tho part of the Turks, and she is now reported to be ready for a compromise. MENARD, 4'THB MAN AND BROTHER." Menard is indignant nt the manner in which his cano hus been turned over to the Committee on Elections. He regards the professions of radi? calism, of regard for the "man and brother," ss hollow and hypocritical, and intends, on his return to Louisi? ana, to report his treatment to his ?''colored constituents." We subjoin the account of his casu by tho cor? respondent of the Baltimore Gazelle: "Menard, the negro member eleot to Congress, is indignant to-day at the manner in which tho radicals disposed of his case. Ho was elected only for the residue of the present Congress, which expires on the 4th of March, and be says the reference of his caso to the Committee on Elections he regards as equivalent to his rejection, and that he shall so re? port to his colored constituents in Louisiana. Menard further says that tho whole thing was an experiment, on bis part, to test the sincerity of thoso who were proclaiming negro equality. He could have secured the nomination for the next Congress, but he thought it bost to accept an election for the fraotion of the pre? sent Cougress, as a test whether n negro was a 'man and brother.' Mr. Sypher, it appears, had agreed to urge his claims to n seat under the rulo heretofore observed, that the 'broad seal' voa prima facie evidence suflioieut to seat the holder. Bul when his credentials wore presented this morning, Menard, who was pre sent in the Rouse, had the mortifica tion to soe his case go to the Com m itt co on Elections without a wore of comment or discussion, as if by s preconcerted arrangement and under standing among tho radicals. Thu: ends tho first effort of American citi zens of African descent to be re pre seuted in Congress." Tho attempt to drive the Sou then people into overt acts o? resistant*! aud disorder still continue, in th face of ibo promised peuce b> 1> brought about by the election o General Grant. In Arkansas a mili tia general coolly seizes upon citizc: hostage, imprisons them over powder magazine, and threatens t blow them up if intefercd with in hi lawless acts. Beside this, tho Legit (attire entertains a bill making i felony to belong to a political ussoci; tion. TUE CENSUS.-The following is tl: result of tho census of the Unite States, taken during 18G7, by tl] Bureau of Statistics through tL agency of tho revenue officers, an just published: Six Now England States-white 3,480,397; colored, 30,701. Tota ?3,111*093. Five Middle States -whites, 9,072 ?47; colored, 352,460. Total, 9,425 HG. Thirteen Southern Stales - white 6,764.028; colored, 3,884 :\'o? Tota 10,649,460. Thirteen Western and Pacil Hates-whiles, 12,356,081; coloree .?i, 170. Total, 489,950. Niuo Territories-whites, 435,77 r\;lorod, 54,176. Total, 489,950. Total number of people in tl United States in 1807-whites. '.VI 109,820; colored. 4,408,371. Tot? 36,743,108. Total in I860-white '26,975,570; colored, 4,469,505. T tal, 31,445,080. Thc smuggling case, lately disc vered in Now York, turns out havo uuexpocied limeusions, and .involve unexpected parties. Frau t? a quarter of a milliou dollars ha' already been traced to a singlo fin ????l tho guilty par tiefe, iu or out til? Custom House, ?io not yet see to bo all brought to light. NOTHEHG H=w UNDER TIT* Sun.-Ia a lecture upon "The Lost Arta," Wendell Phillips ?aid, the ether doy, in Nev York, that of some 800 dia tingaiihed stories published in the English language, the plots of folly 250 were invented thousands of years before the Christian era. Newspaper jokes were of remarkable antiquity. The stories put on the Irish were mostly all Greek stories. Joe Mil? ler's Jokes, instead of being 200 years old, were fully 2,000 years old. He next in turn showod the antiquity of glass, the telescope, the steam en? gine, making steel from iron, the balloon, tomb-stone, electric tele? graph, revolving pistols, breech loading guns, and other inventions. He, in fact, could find nothing-not even sherry cobblers, which wfiro made in the time of Aristophanes new under the sun except the daguer? reotype and the priuting press. In conclusion, ho showed how the old arts became lost through hiding knowledge in the bosoms of kings, and priests and the upper castes; through using it as th j sceptre of tyrants, and to overawe the masses of the peoplo kept in ignorance and ser? vitude. It being a natural result of the Alaska purchaso that tho ladies of the United States should desire a knowledge of tho prevailing fashions among their sister citizenesses, wo rejoice in being able to afford the in? formation. The body dress consists of equal portions of fnrs and dirt, arranged to snit tho tasto of tho wearers. Tho married ladies all wear silver rings in their noses, and needles through their lower lips, while elderly Indies add to these ir resistable charms by tho addition of a "stopper," whatever that is, in the upper lip. Their amusements are an yet restricted to gambling and drinking whiskey. The law of divorce is rendered unnecessary in Alaska, from a habit thev have of getting married for a n limited number of o^onths, consideration for which is payable in fish bones, whale oil and junk. As tho doctrino of perfect equality is soon to prevail, a little information upou this point cannot bo considered out of place, tho New Orleans Times thinks. REM ARK anu? TOPOGRAPHY.-A very remarkable feature in the topography of the country, presents itself in Wise County, Virginia. At or near Pound Gap, on tho Kentucky side, is a mountain, about four miles in cir? cumference, at its buso; in tho mouu tain, bend four rivers, flowing in different directions, nearly corres? ponding with the four cardinal points of tho compass. Tho four springs cnn bo seeu nt ono view from tho top of this mountain, and they are nearly equi-distant from each other, soy a mile apart. These rivers are: Tho Guest River, flowing South into the Clinch; tho Liekfork of the Ken? tucky, running West; Cumberland River South und the Pound River North into tho Sandy. They flow through four States, and aro tributa? ry to the Ohio River. [ Lo u is ville Co uriel''Jo ur uni. A writer in tho Boston Congrega? tionalist speaks of n parish up in Berkshire Count}', "that lins not been ashamed to employ a faithful, labo? rious, gorily pustor, for tho amazing sum of $200 per annum, since April, 1854, till last spring, when they de? cided to turn him out to 'pasture,' i>s being too old to answer their pur? pose any longer. He is guilty of the crime of being sixty-three years old, i brother grad nato of Dr. Todd, but five years his junior." The Spring-? fluid Republican fears Hiero are n great many parishes around the j country equally menu, and ii ought i lo kuow." A petition is in circulation for Ino pardon of Jeff. Davis, and all others under presentment or indictment for having been engaged in tho rebel? lion. Thus far, we believe, it has only been signed by D?mocratie j members of Congress; but there aro , a great many others who would hoi very glad to see an end put to this dismal farce of trying to impose on tho public, by pretending to wish to ! try Davis, or anybody else, in this matter. It is time tho curtain had fallen.-New York Times. A young mun ran away from his parental roof live years ago, and grad? ually sank until lie be found himself in tbs guurd house in Charleston. Among the articles bo owned was a watch, winch, while in the possession of the police, was accidentally seen by tlic lather, who thus discovered bia long lost sou. Tho watch was a present to the young man in other, ? earlier, happier days, and by retuiu ' mg that memento cf bis boyish home i he has been restored to his family. TUNNEL UNDER THU HUDSON.-It is reported that tho Erio railway is about to construct a tunnel under tho Hudson River, to connect tho shores of New Jersey aud New York. The plans and specifications of tho work havo been prepared, and ope? rations, it is anticipated, will bel commenced uoxt spring. The tunnel, it is estimated, will cost about $3,000, 000, and will bo completed in two and a half years. Some follows never pay a debt ex i cept when they owo a grudge. Boira FETJOH.-Of all painful things can there be any so excruciatingly painful as & bone felon ? Wo know of none that flesh is heir to, and as this malady is quite frequent and the subject of much earnest considera? tion, we give the latest recipe for its cure, which is given by that high au? thority, t lio Loudon Lan cet: "As soon as the pulsation which indicates the disease is felt, put directly over the spot a fly blister, abont the size of your thumb nail, and let it remain for six hours, at the expiration of which, directly under the surface of the blister may be seen the felon, which can be instantly taken out with tho point of a needle or a lancet." -? The French and English journals aro onrrnged in discns?i?ig tho ".-.peck of war" on the Eastern horizon, which is daily growing larger. They have como to the conclusion that Greece opened the ball by firing upon the Turkish men of-war. Senator Ferry is confident that his amnesty bill will pass the Senate by a small majority; but he fears that he may not carry a two-thirds vote, tho Southern Senators being nt present almost unanimous against it. A negro attempted to violate the person of a white lady, near Browns? ville, Tennessee, lost Monday night, but waa foiled in the attempt. The next morning ho was found hanging to a tree, near the scene of the out? rage. SENSIMJE.-The telegraph rates throughout Canada have been re? duced over one-half. A despatch can now bo sent from New York to Mon? treal for Hf ty cents. Thc elections for members of thc Spanish Cortes are progressing quiet? ly, and n monarchy will bo the pro? bable form of government.

Scott has de? clined to issue the bonds of the State for the redemption of tho bills of the Bank of the State, on the ground that the assets of the bank are not yet in his possession. The Act of the Legislature authorizing the issue of these bonds, provides that the assets shall be placed .in tho hands of tho Governor.
