of SATURDAY, MARCH IS. 1t is one of the
choicest productions that has yet adorned the
pages. Of that celebrated Journal of American
Literature. The fame of Miss Braddon is too
widely and warmly accepted to require any ex-

of all who appreciate pure, refined, and lofty
thought, expressed in language easy, bright and
cheerful. yet dignifed, and freefrom any approach
toward afectation, either grave gay. There lis d.
undercurrent Of genuine and natural humors
too, that runs like silver thread through Miss
Bradden's text, and lends peculiar charm to tie
ost serious as we'll to the lighter portions of
all that abe has written. Her very best charae-
tsristics appear in this her latest and undoubtedly
most matured and artistic performance.

J correspondent OF the New York Tribune,
7rriting from Charleston, South Carolina, gives
me following statcmcuts of affairs there:
INTERVIEW WITH THE school,. 7EAcuEEs-NEGEors
TO GO TO TIE WHITE sCRoeLs. -"
The frsn general order issued by the command
or oiythe post related TO the rc-u3ening OF the
putlc schools. Hi.herto 10 schools for Solored
people, bond or tree, have been .permitted in
Charleston, excepting as special taTorS TO the
wealIhieC classes, and then only under the most
onerous surveillance and conditions. Other such
schools have been--as the FIRST Christian congTe-
cations met-hv stealth and IN secret places AS
the military force here is snail in comparison
with the amount of work 10 be done, two North
ern ctizeps interested in universal education, who
are here on visit---james Redpath, Of Boston,
and Kane O'Donneil, of Philadepha-were in
vted to reopen the public schools and re-organze
the system of education on the most liberal basis.
The school buildings were immediately taken
possession of and a Bureau of Instruction opened.
Tuesday and Wednesday were named as. the
times when applications for the privilege of teach
ing either at public or private schools would be
considered Certain of the old teachers applied
to be re-instated in their former positions. There
were some interesting scenes at these interviews.
The applicants were received with distinguish
ed consideration, and evidently believed that
they would be at once installed after favorable
opinion had been expressed us to their fitness
They were asked if they we're willing to take the
oath of'aieg;ancs. The first two applicants were
astonished that females" should be required to
take the oath, but POSSIBLY because they looked
on Divine truth as too precious 4 thing TO be
wasted on Yankees, for they were violent reoetS,}
,bav said thav ba6, never hecn pOljticiarS and Ot
course would do whatever the authorities thought
right. They we're then asked:
'tAre you aware, ladies, that there is no dis
rinction to be made hereafter in the public
schools between any, class Of chdren-that If
white children apply, they shall be admitted,
and if colored' children apply, they shall be ad-
mitted?"

''In the same school, madam
One Of these ladies, not fguratively, but lite.

the other made extraordinary contortions with
her mouth
After sufficient time had been given to the
two ladies 10 restore nose and mouth to the
pristine condition, they were courteously inform
the old South, with all its preudces and aristoc-
cacies, were done away with forever; that a
large majority of the first families, so-called, of
South Carolina, had already been reduced to
beggarv, and that before the VAT ended there
would be very few of them who would not be
paupers; that i high social order would be
established here, and an entirely different class
of people rnIe; that the Government could only

MARTIN LUTHEa AT HOME AND AS re Was
But could not, bring up my conception ofLu-
ther in Germany to the idea had of him be-
fore 7 saw his manuscripts, collections of his
works, and portraits, but his big drinking
cups were, after all, the most prominent
memorials ne left behind hin. He was jolly
old Soni; hearty and hoEest, I, dare say, and
banged away Mt the Pope and the devil with
good effect. But there was nothing high and
Grand about him. I went TO. see the place
where the devil is said to have helped him
over the walls of Augsburg; but even there,
not glean of poetry associated itself with
his name. The huge drinking cup seemed to
swallow up everything and the couplet, said
to be his, appeared to tell the whole story.
Who loves not wine, women and song,
Remains fool all his life long.
IN short, his burly face and figure, and the
gobets toat testify to his powers, made it
absolutely impossible for ME to connect any
heroic idea with the mani Professor Fulton.
KIsslxG-The "editress'- of the Ladies'
Repository, talking about kissing, says -
Kisses, like faces ofphilosopheTs, vary. Some
are as hot as fire, some as sweet as honey,
some mild as milk, some tasteless as long
drawn soda Stolen kisses are said to have
more nutmeg and cream than other sorts. AS
to PROPOSED Kisses, they are not liked at all. A
stolen kiss is the most agreeable We have
been kissed few times, and as re are not
very old, re hope to receive many more. -
st what hour may the lady be found in her
office?
