The Memphis Avalanche notices
the case of Col. Harbut formerly of
the Confederate army, who is nowdying
in the City Hospital, in Memphis,
from the effects of having swam
the Mississippi in escaping from a
baud of jayhawkers. After the war,
he returned to his home, at Waverly,
Missouri, contrary to the advice of
his friends, as he had been outlawed
by the radical Legislature. He reached
the spot to find his dwelling, a smouldering
ruin, it having been set oil
f.rc, and his children having been
uurnci aiive iu it. nmic
gathering their remains, lie was set
upon by a party of over 100 men,
from whom he barely escaped in the.
manner stated.
Has it come to this, in free America,
that the Congress of the United States
are debating upon the propriety of a
law that shall prevent a supreme judge
of the United States from holding
court in one-half of the Union, save
bj the permit of a wearer of shoulder
straps. Is the Chief Justice of the
United States to get the gracious authority
of a military office to hold his
sitting in the Capitol of Virginia?
Well inav men ask, "Are we living in
v ' ^ O
a free republic in the midst of the
nineteenth century: or have we been
transported back to the violence and
intolerance and armed tyranny of the
dark ages ??National Intelligencer.

The Scientjic American says that
the centre rail, successfully used for
heavy grades on the Mount Cenis
Haihvav, is an American invention,
patented some fifteen years since by
Mr. Oeorgv- E. Sellers, of Cincinnati,
and practically applied by (lie
Coal Iliver Improvement and Coal
Company, for overcoming a grade of
one hundred and fifty feet to the mile
in crossing the eastern barrier of the
Shamokin Coal Basin,
The following is from the Zanesvillc
(Ohio) Times: "Among the marriages
occurring in this city last week was
one of a highly respectable young woman
to an individual who was a
Southerner, and at the beginning of
the war a slave, notwithstanding the
fact of his having, to all appearances,
no negro blood in his veins."

South-Carolina Bureau of Emigration.
Chaiu.eston, 21 tla February, 1867.
rpHE undersiged, having been appointed
t. Commissioner, has been instructed by
Ilis Excellency Governor Orrto organize the
Bureau at the earliest possible moment. In
a few days Agents will bo appointed by the
Governor to proceed to Europe, whose duty
it will be to induce immigration to our State,
to disseminate such information as may be
furnished them of lands for sale or lease, and
to engage such laborers, mechanics, servants
and other help as may be desired by the inhabitants
of the State. An Agent for the
same object will, perhaps, be sent to Now
York. It would be desirable that nil people
furnish this Bureau, without delay, with information
how they desire to be served, indicating
the kind of help they require and
the wages which they arc willing to pay; or
a description ol'the lands they have for sale
or lease, and their terms and conditions. If
combinations can be formed in the several
districts of the State for joint action, it would,
perhaps, facilitate mutual operations; and
where arrangements can be made to advance
part of the passage money of the laboring
immigrants, by accepted orders to that effect
on any of the factors or merchants of Charleston,
it would no doubt greatly advance the
result. If the people that favor this measure
would meet at their respective Court-houses
to consult, and indicate their wants, this
Bureau would take great pleasure in serving
their interest to the best of its ability. A
pamphlet will bo printedln several European
languages for distribution, describing the
capacities end advantages of our soil, climate,
productions, etc., in which many particulars,
that are promptly furnished, may be advertised.
The means at the disposal of this
Bureau being strictly limited, the kind assistance
of the conductors of our public journals
is respectfully requested.

Commissioner of Immigration.

twice and send their bills to the Commissioner.
