inuruKTANT SPEECH BY NAPOLEON.
1'aiiis, July 20.
The Monitcur contain* tbc following :
Yesterday evening, the Kuipcror received
tlic grout bodies of the State, tint Presidents of
which, M. Tropling, Count tie Morny, ami M.
liaroehe, addressed congratulatory speeches to
his Majesty. The Kniperor thanked tliciu fur
tlicir devotion, nml then explained the reasons
for bis conduct during the great events. He
tlieu said: "Arrived beneath the wall of
Verona, the struggle wits inevitably about to

THE ANGLO-FRENCH ALLIANCE.
The l'aris llchats, speakimr of the suspicion
fast mi France hv the recent debates in the
English Parliament, says:
"France does not. lay claim to denominate
nnywhere. On the sea, as on the mainland,
rIic only wishes her legitimate share of liberty
nnd action. Does this imply that she must adniit
and submit to sueh domination from another
I'ower! Like Kngland, Franco possesses

linve felt it our dutj- to point out in the point
of view of the alliance we should wish to uphold
? When n c!<>ud passes overhead pregnant
with electricity, why attempt deliver the
thunderbolts Who knows where it might full."
THE CONCLUSION^3F PEACE.
The London correspondent of the Charleston
Mercury writes as follows as to the state of
feeling in Kngland with regard to the continunncc
of Pence.
The feeling lioro is that the penco will he of
short duration, and that Austria has been let
off CBRily, like Russia, that aho may hecomc nn
ally and stand aloof, while Jfapoleon settles
accounts with l'rursia on the Rhine ; they may
be balanced hv the transfer to France of the
Rhine Provinces ; less than 80,000 men will,
perhaps, win them. And then the Mtm of
England may come, that the defpnt of Waterloo
may be avenged. Of the "allied powers"
of 1815, two tape been humiliated by war;
why should nouhe process be carried on to the
l.in/1 mill e. .? '
Lirr- 1 lie UIOW Will IIOt tall this
way j*et; nor, probably, will il take the form
of uii invasion. I5ut there are otir outlying
Costs (if Gibraltar and Malta; Spain has been
uilding gnu boats here lately; lhe Mediterranean
onuht, as all the world knows, to be n
French lake. So, perfidious Albion, look out!
And she is doing r.o. Our nuvy is growing
weekly ; we are casting Armstrong guns nt a
re-assuring rate, and Mr. Gladstone, the Whig
Chancellor of the Exchequer, lins laid an ndditional
fuurpeuee in the pound on the Income
Tax, which gives him ?5,000,000 to clear olF
old scores and start afresh.
In the debate on this subject last, evening, |
Mr. Bright attempted to show that the French I
Emperor is a most peaceable man; that the |
fl.wu vvupj !* ?*? l?:--1' 1 n
...... .viiiu I'll 111 nve years were
{Hire accidents; nnd that lie would dismantle
lis navy, nnd give nu unlimited furlough to
160,000 soldier*, if it were not for the lenders
in the Knglioh newspapers! Nevor did r<i
ciovcr a limn ah John liright talk so much
trash. "Muke yourselves lambs," ho says, nr.d
shut your eyes t<? tlie other half of the proverb;
don't believe that the wolf will "behove
as such," while you nre bleating out your
peaceablc wishes to be left alone I
The Citors in the Bbithu I slash.?The English
Journals give good accounts of the wlieut
and other crops. From Ireland and Scotland
wc have equally good reports. Tho Dublin
Mercantile Advertiser Buys:
Wo have now passed the time when, in former
years, accounts of appearances of blight
in the potato crop usually begun to appear.
As yet, fortunately, there have not been even
rumors of disease in the growing crop, unless
frotn one or two Wei'tern districts, and the po'&
tatoe? which are in very abundant supply at
the Irish markets, are excellent in qunlty.
> Owing, however, to the severe frosts at the
UI nuty, II I-Uimuurttuio poruon
nre small in size ; ami we fear that this complaint
is rather general.
A late Scotch journal says:
We have bad another week ?>f charming
weather. The land has been made soft with
thowc-ra, and the springing thereof has
been blessed. The pastures are covered with
flocks, the valleys are covered with corn, and
all nature rejoices in the sunshine of it* great
Creator, The crops in this district are such us
to leave no just cause for grumbling.
Another journal says:
The weather continues dry and warm, and
the crops are being forced on at hot hou%a rate
of growth. It is curious to observe the barley
'??
e,vi?i aucBuy. xi^rvesi will Do commenced
in the curly districts in the first week
of August if the heat continue*. Observers
profess to say that the yield will not be abundant,
though the quality will be superior. 80
for as the eye can detect, all over the Sontb of
Hootlaud the country never looked more beautiful,
and grumbling sould be held in reserve
till a more fitting occasion offers. We hear
- nothing of potatoe failure ; the crop everywhere)
looks WelL .

Since our Inst is>ue we have had copious \
?1 lowers of min which lias somewhat revived j
the drooping vecclatioii. It seems to he the
opinion of our planters generally, lhat it is loo
late to he of material benefit to corn and cotton,
and short crops of both must lie the conseipicncc.
We think an occasioned drought
might be of service to our farmers in teaching
them the necessity of planting more grain
and less cotton. When cribs aro empty who

A TOWN CLOCK.
It has been suggested that arrangements
might be made with the building coinmit'.ce of
the Kpiscopal Church now in process of erection
to place a town chick in the cupola. This is a
thing much needed in our village and worthy of 1
consideration. A good clock sufficiently lurge

for about thr'-e. hnndnd dollars, and this sum
wo nrc (satisfied can be easily raised. There is
no building now in tlie place suitable for a '
largo clock, and the cupola of the new church
can be so ai ranged as to hold it without ma- !
tcrially altering the plan. Let us consider the
matter and act at once.
ABBEVILLE FEMALE ACADEMY.
By reference to the advert'beuieutin another 1
column, it will be seen that the exercises of '
this Iustitutiou, will be resumed, on the second
Monday of September, under the charge of the i
Principal, Miss M. E. Putnam, assisted by
Miss C. Wrigiit. a graduate of one of the best
Normal Schools. The Principal, Miss Putnam,
l.as during the pant Session, proved herself to
be an accomplished Instructress, and under
I.or vcr}' fcllicienl management tlie Academy
lifts enjoye?l more tliuu its usual measure of
public patronage. We trust that her renewed
efforts to increase its usefulness, will be duly
appreciated, and that she will continue to receive
the public support, which will enable her
to sustain a flourishing Academy in our midst.
PASSING AWAY.
The domolitiou of the Episcopal Church here '
coinmcnced on Monday last preparatory to the
erectiOD, upon the samo sito, of a handsome
brick structuro. On Sunday, the pastor in ,
charge, the Rev. B. Jons so*, held service for |
the ln'st time in the old church, upon which 1
occasion he delivered a most solemn and impressive
sermon from the tejt, "Old things <
havo passed away." Seventeen years ago this I
church was erected under the most unfavorable
auspices, hut such has been the accession of >
members and attendants of late, that it has j ]
l ..:t 1

dious house. In the midst of the improvements 1
going on around us, it is gratifying to Ree that j
the spiritual interest of the community is not <
overlooked, nnd that the lofty spires of onr <
churches like the finger of <JoJ are ever point- '
ing us to a home in heaven.

of peculiar interest. The following flattering

rHE LONDON TIMES ON NAPOLEON'S
pp?rv
The Kinpcror of tJic Frcnch lias cofided to
liis nriny the rcanoiiB which induced him to
[ unit. Austria the just, aee.om pi foiled peace. It
is a document which repuires frequent re-per u*nl,
nii'l which invites unceasing conjecture.
1'lie principal aim of the war was, it, seem*, to
render Italy a nation, ami thfopriiicipal aim, it
nfooseems, lianbeen obtained. "It. istrue/'pays
Napoleon III. (illustrating the proverb, "Qui
h'<sense nViw") "that Venetia remains to
Austiia;" but he explains that this exception
is immaterial, because Venecia will continue
Lolm an Italian province, forming part of an
Italian confederation. We confess we <h> not
follow the Emperor in this explanation.
That Venice will remain Italian we can cl? arly
eeo ; we should have more difficulty in understanding
how it could become Bohemian or
Hungarian ; but how this fact renders its possession
l?v Austria of less importance we cannot
prctAd to explain. It is one of those logical
sequence's which none but an Emperor at.
the hftml of many letrions can enounce with
[ Ifeet.. To the eve nf common iittiloi-utntnlimr
litis possesion of Vendia by Austria would
<01:111 to give Austria a ritrlit. which she never
before bad to intermeddle in the polities of
nil ltnly. Austria, a great military monarchy,
is, l?y this possesion, a incmlicr of a confederacy
which is made up of Austria and it few insignificant
ami unwarlike States. In this confederacy
who will obey? Austria is right in
boasting that it matters not what may l?c the
fortune of her arms; for, beaten or victorious,
she always gains the prize 111 the contest- That
which was limited is now become universal ;
that which was an encroachment is now become
a right. We have nothing to say when
1 lie French army is told that the union of Lombard
y and Piedmont creates for France a powerful
ally. It is undoubtedly true, Itut France
has bought this alliance at a frightful cost, and
the independence of Lombardy is not that independence
for which ihe Lombards sighed.
It is notoriously very difficult to pet lit the
meaning of Louis Napoleon, lie is the great
modern Sphynx, nn-1 his very existence, depends
upon his not being found out. l$ut, of
all the riddles he has pro|>osed lo Europe, none
is more puzzling and intricate than this Treaty
of Yillafranca, the sense of which we have attempted
to read in the description he has himself
given. It is usual when we doubt ns to
the authorship of an net to ask?for whose
benefit was it done ? Hero, however, we ask
this question in vain. The treasure is spent
and the blood is shed, the war is ended, and the
pence is made, but no one, so far ns we can
see, is the better for the light. {Sardinia is not
ipiite happy in her new possessions, and even
Victor Emanuel will find in Lomhardy n poor
substitute for the enthusiastic affection of an
Italy. France has pained no accession lo her
territory, and no friendship from the oppressed
populations of the earth. She has gained nothing
but the knowledge that her Emperor is
ubie to manoeuvre an army, fclic has not, even
lit this moment, the conviction that his sparing
Austria was an net of unmixed generosity. The
Emperor now says lliat he sta)cd his hand under
an npprehonsion that the strupple was likely
to assume larger proportions than he desired.
It i6 not a very chivalrous reason to give
nil army which had jnat fought a campaign and
lost thousands ot its comrades for no result
which any one of them would have desired.
I'licse soldiers want work, and glory, and promotion.
To tell them lie made pence for fear
the war would spre&d, could only he to set
them guessing who it was who had staved theni
in their full march of conquest. It was not
England. Was it Prussia? It is not very proLablc,
unless this pause in fighting should he
rather a diversion than a cessation. Was il
Russia i Did Kuesia think Austria had been
beaten enough? Was Russia actiug all tho
time as the surgeon, with his finger upon the
pulse of tho patient, and did she give the signal
to cease when that eymntom of Hungarian
fever developed itself? All or any of these
reasons may huve operated. Or the Emperor
Napoleon might have known the state of his
own arms host. There is, indeed, a last supposition!
which we offer to the consideration
Df those who were not long ago so fiercely
scolding us because wc doubted that Napoleon
was about to eet up a free Constitutional Govem
men tin Italy; perhaps the French Emperor
has imposed some secrct obligation upon
Austria never again to interfore in the affairs
uf Italy. If this should be so. then all is right,

iredulity, nnd there may he credulous idolators
>f Chaos, who, even nt this thirteenth hour,
nay believe in such impossibilities us these.
L'he same tuen of tlio age, however, know bet.cr.
They recognize in this new settlement
milling but an universal nnd irresistible deslotism.
Wo yesterday announced that Cavour
lisgustcd by the disappointment of all hopes,
tad thrown up his employment. The des
latch of to-day confirms our previous infornation,
and announces that the King of SarJinia
has acceptud Count Cnvour's resignation,
ind has replaced liiui by Count Arese. This
:vent determines the nature of the pence. Cav>ur
was au earnest man. lie believed iu
Italian independence as a future work of Napoleon
III. It W4s by menus of the confidence
ne felt himself and inspired in others that Maz
tini anil Ins emissaries were discredited
throughout Italy. It was Cavour who gave the
iignal for the successive risings in the smaller
Italian Htntes. It was by means of his influence
that the revolutions at Florence, Parma
ind Modena were bloodless, and that Home rc
iiinined tranquil. Cavour believed in a Conjtilutional
Iinlinn Unity, and unfortunately he
believed that the Emperor Napoleon entertained
the same views as himsell. Warnings
were throwu away upon him. Patriots and
young ladies have a faith in men's promises
which no expositions can shake, and which
nothing but bitter personal experience can des
troy. Poor favour 1 llo once had a great
oareer beforo him, for he was honest and zealuus;
bnt he was credulous and impatient, and
he became the tool of crafty selfishness.
History tells us what nonsm! n?. TilaW nnrl
some French memoir will doubtless at a future
day relato what was tlio conversation at Villa
Franca. It is not neccasary, however, to wait
for the authentic report; the result suggest
what the conversation must have been. "Surely."
we can imagine Francis Josoph to have
said, "my Imperial brother cannot intend to
revolutionize Hungary, and to establish a focus
of insurrection in Italy!" "Not tho least in
tho world. I enre no more for these Italians
than you do. This matter has gone quite far
euough for my purpose. You see now that
France is necessary to Austria. We will settle
this atfair, and I will leave you stronger in
Italy than you ever were. 1 will also make
everything straight between you and Russia.
You shall be one of us, and wo three together
will impose law on Eur<y>e." Is it to be wondered
at that Francis Joseph, with a beaten
army and a bankrupt Exchequer, was not
proof against such temptations f < ?

THE CHARLESTON NORMAL SCHOOL.
A correspondent of the Winnsboro licyintcr
snys:
This school is intended for the education of
girls, ko iih to enable t hem to become teaehers,
and ctnbraci'fi the whole curriculum of a liberal
education. The r.<*nh>us and patriotic Commissioners
of Free Seltools ill Charleston have not
been merely satisfied in extending to upwards
of two thousand children nil the advantages
of llio most excellent, and thorough tuition, but
pursuing their labor of love and ueefuj ness,
they now aim to edueate teachers, who shall
still further develops the eyetenj, of which the
schools iu St. 1'hilip street and Friend street are
modela.
The advantage# of this school are not intended
to be confined to Charleston. By an act
of tho Legislature, passed in 1857, the State
appropriated $10,0<K) towards the erection and
furnishing of the building, and agreed to appropriate
the sum of $5000 annually for five
years for it* support, provided the citizens of
Charleston contributed an equal anaountto both
these purposes. The contribution has been
made, bo as to secure the appropriation by tbe I
State, and the school is now in successful operation.
In consideration of thin, it is made the !
duty of the Commissioners to receive into tbe
school, free of any charge of tuition, female
pupils from every part of the Stat e, not exceed
ing fifteen to en ell Congressional District, for
tbe purpose of being trained as teachers. 1
am very sure, that as it is the duty, so it would
boa great gratification to the Commissioners,
to receive pupils from the State at large. 1
know that they arc desirous that all parts of
the State should reup a portion of the harvest
which now cheers the heart of every patriot
and philanthropist who visits the schools, now
in operation, und?r the new and improved system
of education which has been introduced,
I and we are anxious that our own District
should avail its?-lf of the liberality of the
Stale and the labors of the friends of education
in Charleston.
It would be out of place, in lliis eommuriieation,
to dwell upon the advantages and noees?
i sitv of female education. They are apparent

Philadelphia Inquirer writes:
The dry goods trade the past week has been
quite active, and with the upward and advancing
tendency in raw material prices are buoy
nut for nil descriptions of cotton goods. The
announcement Unit peacc had been cstiiblinlicd
between France aud Austria lia<I a tendency to
advance prices on tlie oilier side, which also
had a beneficial influence upon our market, and
holders, iu view of the light stock here, generally
insisted upon lull, and iu most cases high
prices.
The fall season bids fair to be an aclivo and
profitable one, as prices for most descriptions
must soon show an advance, as the supply of
cotton goods here is very limited, and manufacturers
are busily engaged on contracts
which will keep them employed for at least
three months to come.
Brown sheeting* are in demand at 8} a BJ
for heavy, and 7A a 7f for lipht ditto. In
brown shirtings a I'tiir business is doing at 7J
for light, nnd for heavj*. with a i^ood export
inquiry. lSlcached sheetings and shirtings
have been active ut full prices, with large sales
for export. Drills are in good demand for
shipment to China, and with a reduced stock;
prices are firm at KJj- a 'Jc. for hleachc<), nnd
10J a 11S for blue. Cotton flannels are in brisk
demand at slightly higher prices. Printing
cloths are scarco and firmer, with a good inquiry.
In all other descriptions of cotton goods tho
market is firm, and prices generally tend upward,
with a good demand. Woolen goods
are in good supply, nnd with ft moderate inquiry
prices remain stendy and unchanged.
(Jassnners and Satinets, however, have been

Massacre ok Ei'iomNS in IJonNKo.?A correspondent
Iiab forwarded to Messrs. Finley it
Co. Glasgow tho following intelligence :
"We have the greatest regret in informing
you that wo huve, by tlio arrival of the Dutch
Government steamer Ardjueno, from Banjeruiasting,
on the 21st inst, rcceivcd tho most
disastrous tidings regarding the conl rnino establishment
of Kalungair, which has, by some
accounts, been entirely, by others only partly,
destroyed by an insurrection among the native
subjects of tho Sultan of lianjermassing; but
sAdde&t of all, the whole of the European employees
have been brutally murdered, without
leaving one to tell tho tale. The tragedy was
cnnctcd on the 18th of tlio month, and nttendcd
with horrors not exceeded by anything
which occurred even at Cawtipcire. Tho particulars
you will find described in a circular
addressed to the shareholders by tho directors
of the company.?Reinforcements of troops are
being sent in all haste from this and Samarang,
with three or four steamers, which, will no
doubt bo sufficient to restore" nence and nrJcr
| in the country, and wo trust may arrive ia
lime to save the remaining Europeans at Banjarmnssing
and neighborhood. The cause of
the insurrection proceeds in no way from dislike
to the mines, where the greatest peace And
contentment have always prevailed, but to .
long-brooding disaffection of the natives or'
Banjoruia&sing to their new Sultan, who had
been maintained on his throne mainly by tho
protection of our Government, contrary to the
will of tho people, and, au it would appear, in
disregard of tne legitimate right of succcssion
of another Prince, named Hidayal, who was at
the same time tho favorite of the people. This
disaffection among the people, excited to revolt |
and murder by some Mohammedan priests late- I
ly returned from Mecca, it'supposed to have
been the cause which bos led to the saorafice
of so many nrecious lives, already amounting,
so far as Known, to 60 or 61 in nnmber.

of their wives, and 10 ehildrea are stated to

BATTLE OF SOLFERINO.
Mr. Uaym?>ni>, of ttp New York Times, in a
second letter to Lis paper about the buttle of
Solferino, says:
"All agree that tli? Austrian* foil pi it with
desperate courage and resolution, and that
tlieir artillery whs i^peeially effective. The
men stood to tlieir guns until lliey were absolutely
cut to pieces or driven ofl" nl the point
of the bayonet. It was in that weapon, and
in tJg^Jicadlong, uucnlctilating and unconquerable
courage with which they use it tlint
the superiority of the French was most iniirked,
nnd it was this which gave them the victory.
Napoleon took a most active personal part
throughout the day. After getting a general
view of the field from the bights of C'nstiirli i
otic, lie descended to the plain nnd moved
about froin place to place, us the emergency require'].
(,>ne of his body guard told us tlio
next day that )i? was repeatedly exposed to
the most, imminent danger, as the ball:) of the
enemy fell thickly nroiuid him. The guard
himself, who stood near the Emperor all day,
had received upon the front rim of his heavy
hi'lmet a grape-shot, which indented the metal
and inflicted a flight wound upon his liend.
The Austrian Kmperor is said, also, to have behaved
with sutlicient gallantry', and to have
thc<J tear* when the Solferiuo hill was taken,
and he saw that the day was lost. Louis Napoleon
did not return to Castiglione after the
buttle, hut immediately established his headquarters
upon the advanced portion of the
held, at Cavriana??ix miles further on. As
I descended thehilLat dusk, the enormous train
of his equipages was already in motion, and
the flags from the house he had occupied were
taken down."
Per.u on Douulas.?From the Benton Ifrrald
of the 14th inst., wo extract.the following
statement of Mr. Puoit'a position, in respect to
Douglak, as announced in hin speech, at that
place, in answer to n question whether he
would support tlmt gentleman if nominated
by the Charleston Convention :
lie repudiated Stephen A. Douglas and his
odious doctrines?his squatter sovreigntv?his
territorial policy?his construction of the Cincinnati
platform, and the whole string of his
his vile teachings. Being asked if he would
support Douglas under a nomination of the
<.;imrieston Convention, lio said emphatically,
"No. I woulil not support Stephen A. Douglas
if he accepted a nomination on my own platform."
11o said that ho regarded Douglas a
corrupt man, and not worthy of the support of
true patriots, no matter what platform lie
might run on, or what promses lie might, make.
If Douglas should receive the nomination at
the Charleston Convention, lie advised that
we nominate a separate ticket, and appoint our
bc9t men as electors and heat him. Ilo
advised southern rights democrats to go to the
Charleston Convention and demand tho endorsment
of the southern construction of tho
platform, the repudiation of squatter sovereignty,
tho protection of slave property in the territories,
and the recognition of al! the rights
claimed by the South. If the southern members
could not control the convention anil car
ry these points, that they should then quit the
concern an?l conic home. He desired to make
one more effort to preserve the Union on principle,
but hud very little confidenco in the success
of the effort. If it failed, then he wanted
the South to be united as one man, to burst
the unholy bands and take an independent position
out of the Union. By this atop, the
South could lose nothing, having tho resources
and power to control the muunfacturing and
commercial interests of the world.

commencement of this great enterprise. This
amount is almost daily increasing, and thore is
every reason to warrant the assurance that
within a very few months, if not weeks, the
entire sum will be made up. This $340,000
has been subscribed by some fifty or sixty individuals.
in sums of from 1,000 to 40,000, aniong
them the last named amount has been,
subscribed by ex-Governor Henry Johnston, of
this State. Several gentlemen in Louisiana and
in other States havo signified their intention,
