The l'ahnctto Orpluuv Home was, organLed last April; and' is n.nv progressing with ciieouragii;g prijsj.ccts. The Hoard of Trustees have adopted a Constitution and By.-Laws which define the nature, design and mode of operation of this Institution. Its direct management is to he by a Local Board consisting of nine persons, in the city of Columbia, which Board is to be subject to the direction of a Ccnoral Board consisting of t wo persons, from each county in the State, "which is?to he called to meet annually in Columbia, at such time as the Local Board may appoint ' 1 ' * '' ah 41*i\L*r\ In UlC CIIOICC UI ptUWHin III ,|||,VII Boards and of the officers of the Institution, no partiality is to be allowed on account of the religious sect to which persons belong; hut all appointments arc to he made on the broad principles of humanity and charity. The Constitution docs not limit the ages at which the children shall be received; but leaves that at the discretion of the Board, who are to decide froui the nature of each case as described in the application. The Board are desirous of purchasing suitable and valuablo property, now for sale at low figures, for the Ideation of the, Home. We arc, therefore, confident "that our appeal to the generous people of South Carolina will at once bring many liberal donations* rind pledges to effect the permanent establishment nf the Palmetto Orphan lhme, which will ' be the best monument to the memory of our dead we can rear in our Slate. ?

And the Hoard will take pleasure in acknowledging all amounts paid to him or sent dicctly to us at Columbia. Donations may hemadc in money, provisions, clothing and anything that may he made useful. All applications for entering children must he made to the Hoard. Address, 1)r. J. W. Parker, Oh'ha. Columbia, S. C. Hy order of the Hoard of Trustees, H. Kzell, Sec'y.

A Norle Henkfactiox?The Trustees of the Louisville Medical College, (Louis ville, Ky.) have created one of the most liberal benefactions ever conferred by a publie Institution. ' They have instituted otic Jicuijin'ut')/ Srlu)larsfii/>{ii?r each Cnm/rrssioii. til Dislrirt in all of the|Statcs. Hy tikis means very many poov but deserving young hicn will be enabled to obtain a thorough medical education. Any one wishing to take advantage of this Hcneiaction should write to Dr. K. 8. Caillard, Dean of the Faculty . of the Louisville Medical College, Lonisville, Ky., when he will receive a college catalogno with full information in regard to all that is" necessary for him to do to secure oncoflhcse Scholarships. With proper delicacy the the names of those who have secured the jJcueliciary Scholarships will he known only to the Dean of the Faculty. In accordance with the old Ilippocratic oath, forbidding physicians to cliarga the families of each other for services rendered, the Faculty of this College' will make no charge for leaching sons of physicians, and as no physician charges a clergyman's fami ly, the sons of clergymen will receive the same privilege. The next College session begins October 1st., 1872. As the lecture fees charged for each stndeut who has not obtained a Dencficiary Scholarship, amount to 812(1, annually, the public can appreciate the extent of this benefaction. - 1 Radical Riots in Ceorgotown. /i ,? ? ,i;0 i I1C UCOrgCUOVll nua-a uvauuui;.-! .1 ui.v graccful riot in tliat town. On Friday night, some scoundrel tried to set fire to the place with "a turpentine barrel, but failed. On Saturday a tar barrel was tired near George Holland's house. This was put out without the aid of the fire companies, which were promptly on the ground. They were dismissed by the chief of the fire department, and ordered by liiui to their quarters. The Kcstoii Company did 'not obey the orders of the chief. but went about the town, stopping where liquor could be had. and imbibing very freely. The result was, that night was made hideous by the drunken screams of an intoxicated mob, whose foul, obscclic aud ribald language would have disgraced the neighborhood of the To- mb-. Shortly after they had repaired to the house of Hori:U\V ll.'.Anei Jr.,'1 nominally the second, hut really the fust, ollicer in command of the company, the cry of fire was raised almost simultaneously in a dozen different parts of the town, and oue of its members was found ruwhiu'g. to the market to ring the - alarm bell..

The alarm called together the Heston,the Star and the Salamander Honk and Ladder (Companies. It seems that there is some bad blood between the first named companies, and the scene presented at one o'clock on' Sunday morning last at the place of fire would seem to Justify tljo Relief that there was not only bad blood between tbo companies, but an utter disregard of the interest of the- community. Instead?^ employing themselves in putting out the fire, the two companies amused! tteu|clttyinj nl free fight, in which 0?}0 was onuly beaten, another ftabbed, and others bruised- T>} tljis time, H< pnsiututicc Jours, a maf/ktmta sworn to hn-p thr peace, instead of using his influence and exorcising the powers which the law conferred on him, was the most conspicuous figure iu-tha group, with coat off and revolver in hand, encouraging in coarse vulgar and indecent language, a con-' tiliued violation of law and good order. ^ Rehearsals at Thoatroa. 1 The Pull Mull Garsllr. loaches thus upon * rehearsals at theatres: "The stage manager 1 shouts'lJcgin!'and the interesting heroine 1 enters.

The following is an extract from a speech of Mr. Duncan Stewart at an immense Greeley and JJrown ratification meeting in Detroit recently. Mr. Stewart is a member of the Board of Trade of Detroit, a prominent and wealthy merchant and a Republican of lifelong standing and extended political influence: A great many have a3kod uic tho same question that li:us been asked General Blair, ;i Why can't you support Mr. Greeley?"? Well there is a by-way that has led me in that direction for the past two years. I will tell you where the" turning point was. Two years ago, feeling a little unwell, I thought I would go down South, and I went down there full of prejudice. There never was a North, jrn uiair went South with such a prejudice igaiust the Southern people as I had. I had .bought they wore just what the Northern [ircss has represented them? a band of ruff sins, every man swaggering with his pockets rail of bowie-knives and pistols. And when [ got out of the cars Ht. Norfolk I began iglit off to look around for the bowie-knives md pistols. Rut I did not sou one. [Laugher.] I sat in the scat with a gentleman md had sonic conversation with him there, tnd be turned out to be an old trooper in Wade Hampton's cavalry, and he "damned ill Yankoes, all Jews and all everything elso. Well I thought that was going it pretty strong, but lie was exceedingly civil. From Norfolk to Italeigh I found everyone civil and polite. I heard no blasphemy, saw no Srunken men, saw 110 pistols, snw no bowieknives. When vffi arrived at the station at Raleigh a gentleman there was very much jhagrmcd because there was no omnibus to ake us to the hotel. He said he was exjccdingly sorry that this neglect had taken place, He never had known it to take place adore, as we were strangers there he would ake ns to the hotel himself, and this genlcmhn. n man of seven tv-fivo vears of aye. T , j -j "O-J ihould judge, walked through the streets ully one and cnc-quurtor miles, until he irought us to the nflfel, and I thought after hat, that the Southern people were not so >ad after all, even if they hud been rebcllous. This was on Saturday night. CARl'ET?HAG LEGISLATURE. ? On Monday morning 1 went to seo what ort of a legislature they had at llaloigh. I an tell you something about these men and omething about their actions-. I staid there or a week or so to see how they conducted hcmselvcs. And hero was the first thing hat made me think whether we were right r whether we were wrong at the North. On londay thoy were discussing a bill to give ome $lfl.AOO,OOfl (?u 1$12,000,000 to some 11 1 Ht villains that ever lived, South or North, asked them how they expected to sell these onds, seeing there had been no provisions lade for paying the interest on the old State cbt.

Swcpson went to Now York with Item and sold them for 05 cents on the dolir, and from that down to twenty-five und lien pocketed tlw tnonoy and wcut toWashlgton, aud Gen.

That was cramming a lie down the throats of the American people. I found, when I visited the South, quiet and peace; that I could talk as freely as I can in the city of Detroit. Hound that instead of the people being base, as they have been represented by the Northern press and Northern editors since the war, that we were cutircly misled. I found people of great intelligence, people ot great suavity, people.ot unbounded Hospitality, and I said to myself why is it that we can not live on good terms with these people ? Are we to hate them forever? And I ask the same question here to-night, when is this trouble between the North and Sonth to end ? Arc these politicians like Mr. Chandler; Mr. Morton and Mr. Howard aud those rncu to continue this ill feeling to the end of time ? I tell you no ! As Gov. Blair has said, "we must have peace." [Great applause.] And I say further, if we were so cowardly and so be afraid to punish' thesemen when bur blood was up?and I felt that wc ought to havo punished them perhaps? but still we did not, aud I say it is mean and cowardly, and detestablo aud unmanly to keep up this thing. We ought toh$ve punished them completely or .pardoned them fully, aud for my part I go forfree forgivenss. [great applause.] Being Drowned. Somo extraordinary Qiental phenomenaoccur in drowning. As soon as respiration is suspended, by the yidrawing of water into the lungs, consciousness is immediately extinguished From all that can be gathered in regard to the action of the heart, that orgjm probably* acts feebly* a oonside able time after the function of respiution is suspended. By its muscular force arterial # blood is driven ouwardly to the head faster 1 than the veins bring it back, and consequently the mind is plunged, as it were, into a pro'found sleep; for the loss of consciousness results/rom a sudden appoplexj induccd by an extra accumulation of blood in the delicate texture of the brain. When the pulsations of the heart stop, < thon the tension of the muscles relax, and if < tttj?ewffo at vital heat gradually diminishes, and the change is an expansion of compressed gasses in the !j cavities of the body, duo to tlio proce.-scs of decomposition. If the body, however, is 8 recovered immediately, even though respiration and circulation are quiescent, it is posr t sible to re-establish the movement* of the t lumrs bv artificial inflation of tho lun<?s. : . y. f ? vigilantly continued for a longtime. The trial-is not always successful, but so encouraging that the prospect demands the utmost 1 perseverance. -V ' With the revived action of the heart, the e moment the lungs begin *to take in oxygen from the air forced upon them, life begins ? to roturu. Soit is -admitted by physiological" philosophers that the soul is w?m back, if it had gone, in the act of restoration j or else it is morully certain its departure at loath is a gradual process, which may be E interrupted and re-imprisoned in the brain ? by human effort and skill. 0 e Singular Variety of Cotton. e Dr. T, L. Anderson, of Wilkes county, dco., has developed, by cultivation and care- n Kil selection of seed, a variety of cotton r which is certainly a curiosity, and may t prove a very valuable variety. The eottou r is peculiar on account of its-excessive fruit- s fulness and the manner in which the bolls . ire developed. As* described by the Wash- , itn.fan in on/1 n 111 giun UU UI1U W|^VU1MMVVJ the weed has the fcseniblancc of the prolific ^ varieties, growing up in a conical form, though wo think the growth is more vigorous than these varieties. The squares and j blossoms grow in clusters, and very thick. _ A very large proportion of tho bollsare ? what wc would call double for the want of i better word; that is, two bolls are produced from tho same square. The tendency to. Jj doubling is exhibited throughout the plant J uid stalk, and the limbs of many specimens tl seem to take on the same characteristic, there being a groove on each side, presenting somewhat the appearance of a double barreled gun. The crowding of the bolls ^ Joes not seem to diminish their size, but a they arc generally very large and healthy in uppearnnc.* Upon one stalk in his field Dr. A. exhibits one stalk with fifteen young bolls so closely clustered as to be covered with a single open hand, lie has taken ^rcat pains during the past two or throe* years to preserve the seed pure and unmixed with other varieties. He has now several iicres planted in this cotton, aud wc wish } that his experiment may bo of value to him- a self and the cotton interests of the country. ? ? v ings. and"red morocco slippers.
