South CAEoLINA.--It is the universal opin
ion Of Union men, rs well as many of the Op-
position. says the Appeal that the State Of
South Carolina should be degraded and dis
graced. The most feasible and practical plan
we can conceive would be to convert the State
into black colony. Condscate all the lauds,
offer them for sale at Government rates TO 6e-
gro settlers, and allow no white man, unless a
Secessionist, to live in the State This done
instruct the negro Inhabitants to hold a Con
vention and change the name Of the State by
calling it Africa, and naming Charleston Eth

white men cannot survive the climate it IS this,
and We say give it to the poor BLACKS. 1t

bowels Of the earth. Her appetite is unap

pounces upon as eagerly as does swallow upon
a plump, well fed mosquito. She is not at all
particular, her olfactories are proof against
offense, her fingers not too delicate for any
necessary work. and her stomach is not squeam-
isb. Nothing is too nice nothing too nasty,
for her curious manipulation. She has plunged
into petroleum, and has demonstrated that that
compound has many valuable medicinal quail.
ties. A student OF hers, Dr. Decaisne, of Ant
werp, announces that it is a remedy for many
cutaneous diseases, and that itch may be in
simultaneously cured by simply applying petro
leum to the parts affected. The mere emana-
tions Of the oil are sufficient to disinfect the
patients clothes, and the Doctor adds that all
other parasites Of the human body may be i'm
mediatey destroyed by the same means. A
San Francisco savan says petroleum is sure
cure for corns, and no doubt il will ere long
become the base of a score of patent cure ais
and the inventors thus convert it, by scientific
process, into that very essential oil whose
'ubricaiing qualities, as exemplifed in imparting
locomotion TO "the mare" are ptoYcrbial.
