THE REVIEW AT CHALK LEVEL.
On Saturday last the Lower Hattalion of thz
Sala<la Kegimcnt was reviewed at Chalk Level
liy Col. Wu. Cuskscalrs anJ Staff?Mnj. J
?? . r-HiMiK commanding. Tlicrn was only n j
small attendance on the occasion, and there !
was an evident dee ay of the Military spirit, of
ihc Hutt.ilion. V'pon tlii conclusion of llic
Review Mnj. Foosiis made nn earnest and forsilile
address, in which he lamented (lie present
Jeeline of military spirit and ur^cd Hie im[lortauce
of sustaining the present system. Jt?
. fticiency depended upon the rigid enforcement
>1 the law, and he urged (he prompt, perfor
nance of the duly uj>on all good citizens.?
liiherto the Saluda Regiment has heeu noted

reived liigb commendation for its ofTSeienev i
ind promptness in tin; Ji.-*cliarg? of the duty ' j
tnd we Itcdieve that a. proper oifurcifinciit of !
he present law would do much to restore tin; I
.noietit military spirit. j
W? think thai the present remissness in tlie !
(erformance of military July nri?es not so
molt from the onerousness of the present bj-r ,
em, and a conviction of its inefficiency, hr from '
he fact tliat its burden* are sustained uucijual- 1

THE ABBEVILLE SQUADBOlf. [
According to previous announcement, the ,,
.bbeville Squadron was reviewed at this p lace t
n Saturday last, by Col. J. T. licnufcss and I
lafT. The attendance was unusually small '
n the occasion. Our fine Village Company, f
ic Southern Right* Dragoons, commanded, liy '1
aj?t. J. W. 1'enuiN', turned out in nearly its '
suft} strength, but. from sonic cause, there was
uJy ?.f,rjiall rejir<'fi?-ijtatiiin, of that, well known
>t-]>s, the Washington Troup, commanded hy <
Slit. J. C. M?ttTIX YV.? ?M o-lfwl IA <!.- 'I
measure was proposed by the Colonel, which
ay have the effect of reviving the Military t]
liritof his command?namely, to substitute cl
ie Gamp Muster System in the place of the "

ithusiastienlly reeeivad by the Southern
ights Dragoon^ and we have nn doubt u,
ill meet the approval of the Wellington

At Uie close of the Drill, appropriate speeches w

THE EUROPEAN HEWS.
The statement of the London 77me* that
France and England had formed an alliance offensive
and defensive wcms ?*> hare cau??d a
general panic upon the London Exchange. It
; was positively annouoced that Russia had enI
caged to declare war against Austria u'ithin
| fifteen days after the Austrian troops should
: have crossed (he Sardinian boundary, and that
the fleets of France and Russia were to co-op|
crate in the .Mediterranean and j>a 1 tic. This
I statement proves to have heen entirely un!
founded, and Uie trniin - ?
- j u<*v~> w uv mure
than an engagement ?a the part of Russia to
hold I'ru^itaui] tii?: other German State* in
check in the event of an Italian war, the effect
of which will lie limit the area of hostilities, :
and to confine it U> the ltnlian States.
On (Ilia subject we make the followiog cx
tract from the New York Tvnr$:
Although the Persia and the Kanparoo yesterday
arrived nt this port, bringing us the
most disastrous intelligence from the London
Stock Kxclionge which !ins ?M-os*ed the Atlantic
f<ir many a year, there is not one feature in all
their news which, on a calm exiitniualion at
this distnnee of time and space, appears to offer
no anything like a serious warrant for the
fearful effects it had produced. We, of New
York, have l>y no menu* a i.iouoply of panics;
and (lie widespread ruin scattered through
hundreds of Knglisli households, liy the mad
nixi meoiifnleralile language of the lx?ndnn
Ti'iiOR, may well be taken at mic of the most
ftrikinsi among ninny c?ii^|iicuou4 evidences
which hi>torv iiin.-l iwuril of the fact that the
" communities of Gr<*at Britain rule
themselves with no more ampler or more
steady wisdom than our own nervous and excitable
ix-opk
The shame of this senseless exhibition will
tic likoly, we think to strengthen the influence
of thr A tili-Austrian party in Kngland; and so
to confirm tin* disposition of all Knglish statesHK'ii
who lioM a hojte for<'l7ice, in favor of a
strictly neutral uM.it utlc for trreat, Britain in the
pending conflict. The public opinion of Kngland
will probably soon begin to echo the
strong words if the Ix>iidon Daily News, that.
" J>ord Malim-tbuiy is as truly the author of
the Uus-o-lYcnch combination as if his name
Xi'i atI5x?-?l to the Convention.*' IJythe vacillation
of himself nn<l his colleagues during the
early progress of the negotations; and finally",
hy their foolish avowal before Parliament of
their respect and regard for Austria on the
lSlh *?f April. Ixird Slalmcsbnrv and his chiefs i
literally forced the Emperor Napoleon into tlie i
ullijuio- o( the Czur Alexander. Tliey may be
darnicd, ami utter repentant Palinodes over
[.he I VatikensW-iu of their own imagining, now
ihnt. it is too late for litem to undo their work.

!i?ur, of Knglnnd"* proffered mediation of a ,
i (Kiwor whose ministers had already expressid
their sympathy u-iih the Austrian view of

ind it is not surprising tliot tiie latest I
tews should inform us of its practical rejection (
?y the French Government. Napoleon 111 hail

rian ultihuitmn, and compensation for the ex- ?
tenses to which she has been driven by the

LETTER FROM MR. BOYCE.
Sabikk Faiim, Mny 11, 1865.
An intelligent correspondent. "Harper," in a
recent number of your paper, seems anxious
to know my opinion on certain point* that he
alludes to.
I utterly repudiate Judge Douglas' idea that
a Territorial Legislature may discriminate
against slavery, and nothing could induce me
to support for tli? Presidency any one standing
on this platform.
I consider it as clear as a mathematical problem,
that the South have & right to bo protected
with their slave property in the Territories.
and that Congress, or their instruments,
the Territorial legislatures, should afford this
protection. As a qu?-etion of practical action,
I u-ould not at this time have originated this
issue, but having been raised ?s a Southern
Ueproeeutative, I shall demand the fullest measure
of our rights.
In reference to the African slave trade. I cor
>11it 11V airree with "llarnor" ilmf. ?i...
I Union lasts "it will prove a. firebrand to di?!
tract and divide our people, ami divert us from
' the greater and more important issue" of safety
and independence.
When I Ituve gathered my fodder I design to
vii>it my constituents in their several Districts,
and liope tlien to be able to give tliem at length
my views upon the political complexion of the
times. I may be permitted, however, to BAy
now, that never has the future looked more
gloomy to me. We are threatened with the
greatest possible calamity?the domination of
an imperious North, ntnl the paralysis of a disunited
South. We shall need all wisdom and
moderuti'-n to nvert the disasters that, threaten
us, and yet how marked in the absence of these
great, qualities oil the part of many who aspire
to direct publii: <>>>inion at the South.
It is but too probable tint a hostile sectional
party North will soon acquire possession of the |
(>overiimcnt. In that event (lie South should '
not. remain a moment longer in the Union.?
Yet who ?loes not feel that the success of that
movement for independence depends upon the i
opinion of the people of thotVonth as lo how
far the success of the seelionnlized North was t
owing to tiie itii|>olicy of the South. But i
how little deference do n: my of the best friends
nf Smit It*ii i,nt? ? *1
|iu_y hi ill is irulllf
Iii conclusion?1 fear the North sectionslized
will soon take possession of the Government.
Then I go for Southern independence at ull '
hazards, by a single State leading olF if neees- i
fury. To make this movement successful the I
South should he made as much as possible one [
in sentiment, the North should he divided us
much as possible; to accomplish this, in my
opinion, the three great requisites of Southern 1
statesmanship are?moderation, moderation, '
moderation.
Very respectfully, s

WASHINGTON NEWS.
Washington, May 10,18G9.
Tlio contract for carrying the mail between
Now York and San Francisco ami New Orleans
and San Fiancisco via Nicaragua, connecting at
West, ha* been awarded to I>. JI. Johnson of
New York, at one hundred and sixty-two
thousand dollars for a betni-monthly scrvico
for nine months from tlio 1st-of October. The
schedule time between New York and San
Franci'co is not to exceed twenty-three days,
and between New Orleans and San Francisco
twenty days. The ocean service is to bo performed
in good and sufficient steamboats and
land carriages.
The despatches recently sent, to Mr. BigJer,
our Minister to Chile, require hiin to make a
prompt demand for satisfaction in consenuence
oi rue outrages on American citizens mid
property. While tlie conduct of Consul Trevitt
is not altogether approved, tlio authorities of
that republic are required to punish the soldiery
for tlieir lawleba proceedings on his
premise*. and to restore to liini hisezajnatur.
In addition to tlie instructions eent to Utah
yesterday to General Johnston iiot to order out
the troops as a poMe eomitatun, unless by order
of Gov. Cummmg, explanations with regard
to th? President's former proclamation were
transmitted, the purport of which is represented
to he that the amnesty extends only to political
oflfencen. As Judge Cradiebaugh's efforts
were to punish certain Mormons on other
and different charges, the prominent, if not the
only blame attached to him is in calling on
General Johnston for troops, and in this the latter
does not stand excused. There has not yet,
however, been any definite action on the
Judge's conduct.
