Extract ola letter from Mr.. Adams, Sec
rotary OF State, TO Mr.. Hughes, Charge d'-
Attaires ofthe United States at Stockholm ::
DEPARTMENT OF STATE,
18th June, 1919.
"The President has been absent from
the seat OF Government, on tour to the
south and west, since the Both March,
His return to this place, in the course Of
two or three weeks, is expected. Since his
departure, Mr.. Russell's latest correspon-
dence with the Swedish government. on the
subject OF the Stralsund claims, has been re-
ceivcd, as well as that which followed MIR.
Russelfs taking leave of the court. il is
painful TO perceive the perseverance of the
Swedish government, in Withholding the
indemnity, so justly and indisputably due TO
our fellow citizens, who suffered by those
seizures, for which not even plausible pre-
text is alleged. 1t is still more painful 10
lind this denial OF justice, accompanied bv
insinuations, neither candid nor friendly. and
by allegations utterly destitute of founda-
ton. Earnestly DESTROYS ofmain,aining. with
Sweden, the most friendly and harmonious
relations, shall reserve until after the Pres
idenrs return, all further remarks on tbe
subject"

SOUTH CAROLINA.

When we put our paper to press, we had no.
thing late or important from South Carolina.
The Fayetteville (N.C.O Observer says that re.
ports prevail there, that the Banks In South
Carolina have ceased to discount. and that in con.
sequence business was almost entirely suspended.
One gentleman from Camden states that he saw
number OF wagons with cotton on their way
from Camden to Chersw;-that cash could not
Do had for the article IN Camden; and if the
same state OF thing existed in Cheraw, they would
come on to Fayettev,lie;-that when he came to
Cheraw he found that place in the same situation.
Many letters concur in stating that the times are
"a"fuF'-business suspended, and confidence
destroyed. These are bui the beginning of evils,
unless something be speedily done to prevent the
collision which now appears almos, inevitable.

4Nr. Sno,oden: Though not q member Of any
Temperance Society, | cordially assent to the
Precept of the Apostle" Be ye temperate in all
things"
Without pretending to decide for others, it has
always appeared to me. that total abstinence from
wines and strong liquors is a,doctrne unsupport-
ed either BY scripture or experience;--that it is
strictly matter Of ind,uiduu concern, to be re.
gulated by the peculiarities Of constitution aud
temperament;-and that excess alone is criminal.
On perusing the proceedings Of one Of those
Temperance Societies, in your paper Of yester.
day, was struck by the unqualified resolution
OF a Reverend member, that this traffic in ar
dent spirits is an immortality, and ought to be
viewed and treated SUCH"
The reverend proposer was not, perhaps,
aware of the consequences Of such a sweeping
resolution, if carried out to its full extent-de-
nouncing, as it does, large class Of our most
respectable merchants, with all our Inn Keepers
and wholesale and retail Grocers. Permit me,
like uncle Toby, to shake The ashes out OF my

PROSPECTS, OF SPAIN.

The new Spanish ministry is composed of
men OF as liberal principles as we could have
expected to have enjoyed favor with any gov.
eminent in Spain.
The threatened demise Of the crown has no
doubt led TO close scrutiny into the state of
things, by persons of different parties. There
Is already strong party in favor of Don Carlos,
whose principles are Of the most ultra and vio-
lent absolute character. The Queens party,
IN seeking friends and support against their in
fuence, naturally cast their eyes on France
and England, and probably also on tho liberals
and Constituencies Of Spain, who are much
Identified with the general system of political
Improvement in Europe. In evidence of this
we lind the Queen granting freedom to polite.
III prisoners in Spain, intimating, as is reported
disposition to permit the Constitutional exllcs
to return, expressing opinions in favor of edu
cation IN decree restoring the universities.
The conduct Of the Spanish government in
regard TO the Miguelite. fleet is an indication of
the same ch1ngc of spirit in the Cabinet Of
Nlndrid. That feet had taken refuge in the
Spanish port Vigo. Th!lhcr il could not have
gone from choice, except under presumption
that the government of Spain would be favOra
bic to II, and permit II 10 remain, with its arma
ment during the pleasure Of the Admiral
Probably the Migueltes had reason TO count on
such favor. IL SOFT was good policy TO enter
that port instead of Lisbon, because the Tngus
would then be left unblockaded Contrary TO
calculation, however, the Spanish authorities
denied the fleet every favor, and finally refused
10 permit il TO remain unless 1t should be dis
ar med. The fleet Of Don Pedro, which appears
10 have been cfuizing off that port, foil in with
