Charleston Hotel 1t is much after the style of the


Aston, except the front, which is relieved by a
Corinthian portico eolonnade covering the whole
extent and height of the edifce. IL is the great
feature Of Charleston, and very Justly the pride Of
south Carolina. Yet it is a Southern hotel upon
Northern principles. The experienced propr etor,
Daniel Mixer, il q Northerner. The accomplished
and popular practical manager Of the house, Mr.
Thomas = Nckerson, is from Massachusetts the
polite and efficient clerk, Mr.. w. {. Rising il u
New Yorker late from Sharon Springs his
istant, Mr.. knowlton, is a Vermonter; and the
head waiter is from Albany. Il Is, in fact, North
ern hotel upon South crn territory; combining the
practical discipline and comforts Of the North, with
the elsgapeies of Southern society. For their Fat
tering attentions and moderate charges, endorse
the Enforcement Of the travelling public OF the
Charleston Hotel. NIB. Fifty passengers from the

We leave here, for the interior Of South Carolina
to-day. But, word or two before we 60. We have
found this Ileasant city for a stranger-the So
ciety hospitablc and polite-the white people kind
and considerable to the blacks and the blacks under
better discipline and department than any lat We
have ever met with in any other part OF the United
States. We do not suppose that there exists any
where n better Of more kindly understanding be-
tween the two races, than is to be found in the
pacific and amicable relations subsisting here be-
tween the white and colored population. The police
reports rather the want Of the materials for them
will yndcate the character of the city for the order
and quiet in which its 5000 people, between the
two castles are nearly equally divided. We leave
Charleston with the recolections Of pleasant So
iourn among pleasant community, and with
something Of regret that duty imperatiycy suggests
the unfinished portion Of these peregrinations.
We should have noticed yesterday, that among
the passengers Of the Isabel, there an unusual
number of Spaniards, or Cubanos, from Havana.
Whether they are going to the North to spend tho
summer, or are getting out Of harms way in antic
patton of trouble does not appear. 1t is said, how
ever, that many OF them are refugees, escaping
while they We also appraised that the
Cuba conspir ICY is not abandoned nor suppressed
but that the other hand the organization extends
from Georgia to Texas, and that they are still
extending operations for recruits. We have not
heard Of solitary South Caroliniap joining in the
movement. 1t is because this people expect little
affair Of their own within year or so, and too
busy getting ready for it to take much interest in
the affairs Of Cuba.
In company with large number of visiters, We
Sullyan's Island. AS the boat passed out from the
city wharf, VIC observed small vessel lying in the
harbor, probably pilot boat, with a singular flag
at the masthead. 1t had the stripes Of the flag Of
tHe oHteu Dut III Tue place. Oh the azure
field the federal constellation glittering all overit
there was whitefeld, with these ominous hyero-
glphics standing out in bold relcf-S.*C.-a single
star, with an $. on side, and G. on the other
On being asked what it meant the captain is reported
to have answered that il was ;. for Cinderella and
G. for Charleston. Is the Cinderella of Charleston
avery unsatisfactory explanation? IL signided South
Carolina setting up the "lonc star" ola republic
on her own account and nothing else.
The National Medical Convention, which held its
annual meeting this year in Charleston, having
closed its useful labors, the numerous physicians
lately here from all parts of the Union, have dis
pcrsed. AS they Were present in the city during
the sittings Of the Southern Rights Convention we
hayc doubt tho medical delegates from the North
will return with whatever scepticism they may have
had Of South Cardinals inclinations, entirely re-
moved. Bon jour ".
