COLUMBIA, S. C. Sunday ai om m pr, June 12, 1870. Tho Death of Charlea Dickens. IQ the world of LITERATURE-in the REPUBLIC OF LETTERS-a bright and shining light bas gone out-has set in death to live in fame. Wo aro informed that Charles Dickens, the eminent no? velist, is dead. This announcement will be received with interest by o vast body of readers, both in Europe and America. The reputation of Dickens was not con? fined to England. The civilized world claimed him in its appreciation and its sympathies, and now that death has sot its seal upon bis rich and busy life, many pens there will be to write his eulogy to tell tho story of bis life and its achieve? ments; to speak of bis -wonderful powers; to analyze hiB great and, comprehensive genius; to commend, in terms of just eu Iogium, the high and noble uses to which be pat bis God-given talents. Wo shall not undertake this work. Wo shall leave it to other pens. But we shall take oc? casion to express our appreciation of this great writer's services in behalf of a broad, a generous, and a genial HUMA? NITY. His humor wos penetrated with a divine-like Bpirit, and he used bis power to excite our sympathies in behalf of the "poor and lowly." We cannot but think that Diokens bas dono the world a great Bervice, and that it is better and moro sympathetic, sinoe suoh a man lived and wrote. And now that the cable brings to this country tbe swift tidings of his death, and we realize the solemn fact that be is dead, what memorios spring np and what a gallery of mental portraits spreads out before the minds of those wbo have read bis deathless works. Wo see Pickwick and his Club and Sam. Weller-Nicholas Nickleby and Squoors Oliver Twist and Smike, Fagin and Sykes-Little Dorritt, David Copperfield, and a numbor of other pictures drawn by the master pen of the great novelist. Truly, Dickens, though dead, yet lives in his great productions! An informal canvass of the House shows that Whittemore will hardly get the seat to which his colored constitu? ents have returned him. Members very generally say that they cannot consistent? ly vote to admit bim when they have voted at the same session that he is un? worthy to be a representativo of the peo? ple in Congress. General Logan will take the position, it is said, that Whitte more's ro-olectiou is an insult to the House. <-??-? Tho world at this juncture in its his? tory, furnishes a series of strange mete? orological phenomena. From one quar? ter we bave accounts of immense rains and floods, from another tidings of parch? ing droughts, and from a third news of terrific storms. SPOTS ON THE SUN.-An exchange, speaking of the remarkable phenomena revealed to scientific eyes in the im? mense spots observable upon the face of the sun, says at length, so numerous are they (the spots) that they appear as thick almost as tho pit-marks on the face of a man pitted with the small-pox. Thoy seem to bo in n dozen largo groups. Somp of them seemingly great gulfs or dark abysses, doubtless far largor than tho planet on which we live. These so-called "spots" change from day to day, sometimes disappearing almost en? tirely. Their existence presents ono of the most interesting nnd stupendous of tho phenomena of the heavens. Their cause can only be conjectured. The latest opinion of the savaus is that they aro simply appearances produced bj* vast down-rushing whirlwinds, pierc? ing through the luminous and dazzling envelope of the sun, known as tho pho? tosphere, and revealing glimpses of tho loss dazzling body beneath. It is pretty definitely ascertained that vast storms of so no kind exist in tho sun's atmosphere of an extent and degree of violence far transcending anything known to terres? trial experience. One thing only seems to be certain about it-these great spots do not apparently diminish tho sun's heat, at least not to any remarkable ex? tent. GOOD TIME AT FORDHAM.-Tho racing at Fordham shows well for tho quality of horse flesh grown among us, and unanswerably indicates that we have the first great necessity for tho cultivation of this sport. Two heats of tho mile race wero run in 1:47, which is good time. The Derby-a mile and a half-was won this year in 2:45, and this is not up to the timo of the Fordham milo in 1:17. Ot' courso tho nddition of hnlf a milo to a course cannot in all cases bo fairly calculated as simply an addition of half the time of the raco that is only a milo in length; but if it is far from that there is a want of bottom. Tho Derby time would givo 1:50 for a single milo, while tho Fordham time would give for a courso the length of tho Derby 2:10j.j, as against Kingcraft's 2:-15. I New York Herald. A Paris despatch states that a biro oc? curred in tho beautiful forest of Fontain? bleau, only a few miles from that city. It raged fiercely nearly all day, sweopiug over hundreds of acres und causing much datnngo. Tho people of the city of Fon? tainbleau turned out in largo force aud succeeded in checking tho flames. EDITOR PHONIX: I am a staunch Re? publican, and am in foi* the fifteenth amendmont, but entirely opposed to the sixteenth, namely: our militia to per? ambulate the streets until a late boar in the night, when honest people ought to be in bed, and when chickens ought to be left to roost undisturbed. Very re? spectfully, CHICKENS. COLUMBIA, -S. C., Juno ll, 1870. INDIAN SrEEcn-RED CLUOD VS WASH? INGTON.-The following is Red Cloud's speech to tho Secretary of the Intorior: I came from where tho sun sets. You were raised on chairs. I want to sit whero the sun sets. (Hero tho Indian warrior sat upon the floor in Indian fashion, aud proceeded.) The Great Spirit has raised me bia way. Ho rained me naked. I run no opposition to tho Great Father who sits in the White House. I don't want to fight. I havo offered my prayer to the Groat Father so that I might come here safe and well. What I have to say to you, and to those men, and to ruy Great Father, is this: Look at me. I was raised where the sun rises, and I come from where he sets. WhoBe voice was first heard in thia land? It was the red pooplo who used the bow. The Groat Father may be good and kind, but I can't see it, I om good and kind to tho white people, and have given my lands, and have now come from where the sun sots to seo you. Tho Groat Fa? ther bas sent hh people out there and left mo nothing but an island. Our na? tion is melting away like the snow on the side of the hills, whore the sun is wnrm, while your peoplo are liko tho blades of grass in spring, when summer is coming. I don't want to see the white people making roads in onr country. Now, that I have come into my Groat Father's laud, seo if I have any blood when I re? turn to my home? The white peoplo have sprinkled blood on the blades of grass about the lino of Fort Fotterrnnn. Tell tho Great Father to remove that fort, then we will be peaceful, and there will be no more trouble. I have got two mountains in that country, Black Hill and Big Horn. I want no roads there. There have been stakes driven in that country, and T want them removed. I have told theso things threo times, and I now have como hero to tell them for tho fourth time. I have made up my mind to talk that way. I don't want my re? servation on tho Missouri. Some of these peoplo hero are from there, and I know what I say. What I hear is that my childron and old men aro dying off like sheep. Tho country don't suit them. I was born at tho Forks of tho Platte. My father and mother told mo that the laud there belonged to me. From the North aud the West the Ped Nation has come into the Great Father's House. We are tho last of tho Ogallalas. We have come to know tho facts from our father, why tho promises which have been made to us have not been kept. I want two or throe traders that we usk for. At the mouth of Horse Creek, in 1852, there was a treaty made, and the man who made that treaty (alluding to General Mitchell, who performed that service for the Government,) told me the truth. Goods whioh have beon sent out to me have been stolen all along the road, and only a handful wonld reach mo to go among my nation. Look at mo. Here I am, poor aud naked. I was not raised with arms. I always want to bo peacea? ble. The Great Spirit bas raised you to read and write, und has pot papers be? fore you; but he has not raised me in that style. The men whom the Presi? dent sends us, soldiers and all, havo no sense and no heart. I know it to-day. I didu't ask that the whites should go through my country killing game, ?ind it is the Great Father's fault. You are the peoplo who should keep peace. For the railroads you are passing through my country I have not received even so much as a brass ring for the land they occupy. I wish you to tell that to my Great Fa? ther. You whites make all the ammuni? tion. What is tho reason you don't givo it to me? Are you afraid I am going to war? You are great and powerful, and I am only a handful. I do not want it for that purpose, but to kill game with. I supposo I must, in time, go to farming, but I can't do it right away. Each sentence of this speech was re? ceived with loud grunts, denoting hearty applause, from the Indians present. On the banks of the Fox River, forty miles from Chicago, is the city of Elgin. Built upon tho sides of the hills, that rise from the river on either side, and peoplod largely by an intelligent and thrifty population, few towns, West or East, surpass it in general attractions. Hero are located the works of the Na? tional Watch Company, that employ a capital of nearly $1,000,000, and a force of 500 hands. It is wonderful, indeed, that in the second year of their sales, they should find a ready market for $500,000 worth of movements, on cash terms, in competition with forojgn goods offered in the market on long credits, ns well as tho products of older and well established manufacturers in this coun? try. Tho secret is this: Whercvor Elgin Watches aro sohl, they make for them? selves a reputation for superiority over all other watches sold for tho same mouoy. PRESERVING MILK.-Asimple method of keeping milk fresh for a loug timo is now extensively practiced in tho vicinity of Paris. This consists merely in add? ing to each quart of fresh milk, before tho cream has risen nppn it, about six grains of bi-carbonito of soda or potash, and then placing tho milk iu bottles, which are to bo corked for four hours, in a water-bath healed to a temperature of about 190 degrees, taking oaro not to go boyond this limit. When the bottlos arc removed from tho bath, thoy aro to be inndo perfeotly tight by coating tho cork with wax, and the milk can then bo kept a long timo unchanged. Thirsty people, go to Pollock's. CHURCH ETIQUETTE,-We quote from the Lynchburg News some remarks on chu rob etiquette, that are both sensible and seasonable: As to-day is Sunday, and many we know of are not quite BO pori oct in chu rob. etiquette, which should guide them in attending divino worship, we moy re? mark, first, that there is no etiquette for any place like etiquette cf common Rt??so; it avails when the rulos of the Chesterfields and the Hickmans often ranko ono ridiculous. On entoring a church, thon, with a Indy, precede her when ascending and descending stairs, as also in seeking a sent. In the lntter caso, it is especially polite-you act as a sort of shield to her modesty, and then you Have her tho confusion of selecting a pow. It is proper, if you aro a believer, to knoel or stand nt prayer, according to the onstom of the church. To disregard these is vulgar-ot least, it shows too muoh false pride, or too little reverence for the requirements of Christianity. Excessive whispering during service is decidedly vulgar, rt is somotiinos ne? cessary to address an under-tone remark to your companions, bat seldom. Listen to the service, especially the sermon. In this age of church opera, called music, you cannot help hearing that part of the oeremony. It would woko up a Van Winkle. But the sermon you may not sleep over or disregard. It is wrong. Ap? pear to hear, if you do not. A good way is, when the minister is dull and you can't liat?n-which happens often enough -to make a rule to atudy phrenology; examining the bumps of heads before you. An hour may bo passed thus po? litely and pleasantly. If yon chow to? bacco, do not uso it in church. It is annoying to those around you, then the saxton gives you jesso. Never leavo church daring service, unless it is abso? lutely necessary-ns in sickness, a house on lire, or professionnl. It is vulgar to como too Into. Sometimes it is unavoid? able; a person wishes to display a new dress, watch chain, or perhaps a beau. It will occur sometimes that a poor goose wants to be driven from his seat thon it is proper onough also. Theso causes and the like excuse lute coming, and the congregation endure them. Any other delay is unendurable. Dress ns plainly as possible. We don't mean that a lady should appear in her morning wrapper, nor a gcntlemnn in his shirt sleoves. A nico medium is tho thing in all matters-Indies should not be takon ; for milliner's show-cases, nor gentlemen for bo-jeweled nud nock-tied monkeys. A plobian goes to church to show fine clothes; an aristocrat to show respect to God. In entering and in leaving tho houso, do not walk too slow, like tho shoddies, nor too fast, liko tho bashful. In tho one case, people ridicule you for affectation; in the other, there is danger of knocking down the pow, or running over somebody. "Hasten slowly." When you look around too much in church, people think you want to show your profile, or that you want to attract attention to your style, or that you wnnt to marry, or that, like poor wheat, there is not euough weight about your head to keep it Btill. Don't look too pious in church either-it is ns suspicious ns too much levity. Religions worship is nei? ther a joke nor an emetic. If you feel extraordinarily devotionnl, begin to think of putting somethiug in the trea? sury, and it will shorten your face quick? ly, and spread over it the pleasant look of duty. Colonel H. R. Boglo, Sheriff of Tnze well County, Va., who was shot on Fri? day last by Reese Luster, while in the discharge of his ofliciul duty, died on Saturday morning, from tho effect of his wound. DEATH KY Liarrrs'iN'O.-On Thursday afternoou, a colored rann, named Jacob Bookhnrt, and a mule were struck by lightning and both killed, at Mr. David Fersncr's place, on Four Hole Swamp. \ Orangeburg Neics.

From "Andrews' Reminiscences of a Georgia Lawyer," we extract the follow- j ing: On tho night of the 13th November, 1833-1 beli eve that WOB the time of "the falling stars"-an obeso old farmer was lying on bis sofa, having a negro woman scratching his head, two children piok ing his ears, two rubbing his hands and two bis foet, when ho was startled by one-who had been looking out of tho window-exclaiming, "lor, master, some? thing is on fire, soe how tho oonls are flying." Kicking and kuocking away tho seven attendants-besetting him like ants around a dead worm-he went to tho door, and seeing the grand pyro? technic display, sent the whole seven to call Phillips, the overseer, whom, when ho came, he ordered to call the negroes, and making him select four of the strong? est, ho had himself lot down his well, and tolling Phillips to stand at tho mouth to transmit his orders, proceeded shouting from his lower deep, "Phillips, rank? Tom and Poter get on the gin-houso, Snm and Bob on the barn, Joo and Jeff on the corn-crib, and mako the others oarry thom water." "Phillipsl" "Sir. "Have thom foddor stacks in the gin houso field caught yet?" "No, sir. " "Phillips, aint tho grass field, on tho South hill, all in a blaze?" "Not yet, sir; the fire goes out beforo coming to the ground." "Phillips, have a bottle of that old poach brandy, in the cellar, ient down-for hot ns it is up there, it is mighty cold down bore-aud give tho niggers what they want, for it will all be burnt up before day." "Phillips, do you smell auy brimstone from the fire?" "I thought, sir, I had a whiff of it just now." "Phillips, if any of that fire falls down hero and should miss me, it will scald mc like a hog iu a scaldiug tub, nt loast it will parboil the lifo out of me. Phillips, get pen, ink and paper, (after they were brought ho proceeded:) Phil? lips, cnn you writo on tho bench whero they set the water-bucket?" "Yes, sir!" (After dictating a short will, Phillips said ho would have him come up and sigu in the presenoe of witnessess, when he pro? ceeded:) "Phillips, what is the stato of the fire?" "Pouring like it was raiuiug ten thousand brush-heaps." "Can't come up yet, Phillips. Phillips, have you heard Gabriel's trumpet?" "Not yet." "Well, let mo know the first toot you hear, that I may have timo to pray a lit? tle." (Phillips proceeded to tell him that there was no uso making a wili, no? how, for all his property would be burned, and it would bo of no use.) "Well, Phillips, I forgot that." The old peach having began to operate, gave him Dutch courage to como up, having first had tho wagon-body brought near the well and turned upside down, under which he crawled. Phillips proposed having straw put under the body for him to lie ou; he objected, "because it would take fire too easily." But, ordering sheep-skins and blankets, ho gave direc? tions to havo himself let down agaiu if the wagon-body caught fire, and went into his M-oolen nest under it. The re? action from tho warmth and soothing qualities of the emptied bottle, wrapped him, with his fears, into forgetfulness, until tho blessed sun, rising beforo the sleeper, blotted out all appearance of the falling fire.

A friond writes to us from Kingsville, that tho train which left this city for Camden, yesterday, nt lp. m., was fired into, near tho old junction of tho South Carolina and Chnrlotto Railroads. Tho ball (supposed to be from a pistol) passed between Miss Wright, of Sumter, and Mrs. Disekor, of Columbia. Tho broken glass was scattered over Capt. Frederick, Dr. Diaeker, and Messrs.

Loud speakers should bear in mind that it isn't tho thunder, but tho light? ning, that does the damnge.

NEW MUSIC.-We have received iron: tho youthful authoress-Miss Minni Crawford-a copy of a piece of music entitled tho "Charleston Galop," ant after hearing it performed by a skillfu pianist, fully concur in tho opinion ex pressed by our cotomporary, th Charleston Courier, The young lady is native of Columbia: "It is a pleasing task at all times ti note the evidences of progression in ou own people. And tho task in this iu stance is rendered moro agreeablo, fron the peculiar circumstances thatsurrount it. Tho gifted young lady who compose* this piece of music isa Columbian, youu? in years, but of ripe experience in tb knowledge of music. The gnlop, with out being particularly grand, is a ver; admirable composition, ono of thosi charming dashes of brilliant and spark ling melody, which wo nil love to hen wiihin tho sacred walls of homo.

" We toko pleasure in commending to public patronage our neighbors, Messrs. Iiorrick & Lowrance, in their new part? nership. They are young men, full of energy, strictly honorable, and with their economical and business babita, ore bound to succeed. No one will regret giving them a call. They have, we un? derstand, made considerable additions to their capital, and as trade demands, will increase their stock. There is no doubt they will retain tho largo trade of tho old firm. Of the retiring partner, Maj. lt. N. Lowrance, we can truthfully say that he will gain friends wherever he locates. Tho officers of tho Carolina National Bank, having fully settled themselves in their new quarters, gave a house-warm? ing, yesterday, which was attended by an immense concourse of friends, patrons and tho general public. Mr. Barry fur? nished the "spread"-and a good ono it was, too. The building-which bad been occupied as a store, banking-house and by the State officers-has undergone such an overhauling, internally, as to mystify its original constructors. Stair? ways, halls, etc., have been removed; and all necessary adjuncts provided, so that now tho establishment will rank with the most convenient in the South. Tho necessity for increased room, owing to increased business, is positive proof of the careful and successful manner in which tho operations of the concern are managed.
