~ Major J. Walker of the Fifth United
States cavalry, regular army, who has for
some time past resided in South Carolina,
in command of all the cavalry in that State,
has arrived in Washington. His opinions
on the condition of politics and society in
that State are set forth by the correspond
ent of the New York Times, who says:
The best and most loyal part of the white
people of South Carolina are the officers and
soldiers of the rebel army. They mingle
freely with our troops, and extend the cour-
tesies of society whenever able they frank
ly accept the situation, denounce the lead
ers of secession, and declare strongly against
any further war, except it be against q CON-
mon enemy. The meanest and most disloyal
portion of the South Carolina people are
those who stayed at home, refusing TO fight,
and the women most of the latter are an
bitter and rancorous as ever, and do all they
can to deprive Northern officers and resi-
dents OF the pleasures of society; but the
backbone of their hate is occasionally bro
| ken by manly face or a plethoric purse,
and time, too, will also cure them Regular
| officers are held III better favor than volun-
| teers, for the reason that the rebels look up
on the latter as especial instruments against
| them while regulars are esteemed - part OF
| the army, as IL existed before the war Gen.
Ames in command st Columbia, is popular
with all classes from the urbanity aud fair
ness of his administration. Loyalty is fos-
| tered under his command.
On the whole, Major Walker thinks the
condition of affairs in the cradle of secession
| far more favorable than could have been ex-
| pected considering the intense hatred of the
| Government INDUCED in by the entire white
| population but one year ago. If the Re
| construction Committee desire cool-headed
| impartial witness, who bases his statements
| upon facts, aud not upon prejudices, they
| cannol do better than examine Major

r Repairs on the Central Railroad are
being rapidly pushed on under the direction
OF President West and the interchangeable su-
Perintendent, Mr.. Frost. Since these were
undertaken not less than thirty miles of
bridges and trestle-work have been built
TheIate destructive floods have, we fear, re-
tarded operations. But for these the re-
pairs would be completed in two weeks or
less from this time. The season of foods,
however, having passed, no further inter
ruptious need lie anticipated, and we hope
TO be soon able 10 announce that this impor-
tant route is in full operation to our sister
city Jackson, Tenn. This will be q great
event for our own city, bringing it into oil
rect communication with the great West %
nesrly au air line.

The Jackson Standard comes to hand con-
siderably enlarged and otherwise improved,
thus giving evidence of prosperity and use
fulness. Jackson now has (omitting those
at New Orleans) three of the largest daily
papers in the southwest That each estab-
hshment is clearing an immense amount of
money, there can be no doubt. The circu-
lation of these papers is so immense, and
consequently the wear of material so great,
that each one keeps type foundry con-
stantly engaged to supply it with type! We
are gratihed to hear as we do privately, that
the next time they enlarge and come out in
new dresses, (Which will be the 4th of July
next they design presenting the type they
are now using to the country offices in the
neighborhoOd We don't wish to hurry
up the cakes" but we must be permitted to
express the hope that the Office that is elect
ed to supply us will not ship by the South
ern Express Company" as we shall never
be able, at the printing business, to raise
the money TO pay the freight bill. Ship by
some other Line, or-ddrdnce the freight blu

Since the departure of the negro troops,
the displays of magnificent wedding parties,
among the colored population which were
daily seen parading our streets, have come
to be so scarce as to be altogether invisible
From the frequency of the weddings, a few
weeks ago, it is fair TO presume that each
eolored soldier was a husband, and, prob
ably, the non-commissioned officers among
them were husbands TO two or three fair
creatures more or less at any rate, we
have been informed that many of them
were very numerously married-here and
elsewhere, But they will come back to
their blooming Dulcinaes as soon as they
are discharged and paid off. OF course they
will-they always do. Meanwhile, the
girls they left behind them" should fold
their wedding drapery and lay it carefully
away. and endeav5r to keep dark" til

Resolred, That it is the sense of this Gen

delegate from each annual conference, to be
selected by the delegates of each CON

Glycerine is the sweet principle of oil.
and is extensively usedfor the purposes of
the toilets but it has now received an ap-
pheation of rather an unexpected nature.
In lS47 pupil of NJ. Pelouze's, NJ Sobrero,
discovered that glycerine, when treated
with nitric acid, was converted into high
ly explosive substance, which he called
nitro-glycerine. 1t is oily, heavier than
water, soluble in alchohoI and ether, and
acts so powerfully on the nervous system
that single drop placed on the tip of the
tongue will cause violent headache, which
will last for several hours. The liquid
seems to have been almost forgotten by
chemists, and il is only now that NJ Nsble,
Swedish engineer, has succeeded in ap-
plying it 60 a very important branch of his
art-namely, blasting. From a paper ad-
dressed by him TO the Academy of Sciences
we learn that the chief advantage which
mhis substance, composed of one part of gly-
ceriue and three parts of nitric acid, pos
sesses, is, that it requires a much smaller
hole or chamber than gunpowder does, the
strength OF the latter being scarcely one
tenth of the former Hence, the miners
| work. which, according TO the hardness OF
| the rock, represents i've to twenty times the
power OF the gunpowder used, is so short
that the cost of blasting is often reduced by
| fifty per cent.

Tbe Radical PrsDs.s,,e,.

Radicalism requires now that the South
ern States shall subscribe to universal suf-
hage, TO be conceded in ten years, for the
bestowh Of her rights not under the Consti-
tuition, but under radical rule. 1t is with
no generosity, no high sense of justice that
this proposition is made. It is power and
overwhelming numbers tempting weakness
and paucity Of numbers, to barter rights
and principle for pretended consideration.
We know it viii not be accepted ANY one
who would accept it, has an eye only for
the flesh pots and sells liberty TO personal
ambition. Once let US depart from firm
demand of our rights and concede the priv
ileges which we know are our due, and the
surrender will but mark the precedent for
future aggressions, and future demands, TO
be followed by further concessions on our
part Let US never depart from principle.
It would be better for Us to remain as terri
tories, to render tribute as conquered prov
inces than sell our birthright for temporary
position What degrading thing it would
be if when claiming to be States equal in
| all the rights Of any Of the States of this
Union, we should send representatives to a
| Congress IN which our members would be
| compelled TO occupy positions Of second
rate and inferior stations in which our low
cred dignity and bartered rights would
place them. 1t would be better TO suffer
and to wait little longer. Let us not agree
to compromise our rights TO the demands OF
radical madness. A State, a people, lose
their position in the political world, and the
respect which mankind ever shows, and the
sympathy which right ever excites, when
they fall from their high. estate as equals
before the world with other States, to that
ofinferiors. Let US not cause our own deg
radiation A people who are true to them
selves cannot be degraded by others.
Chains may be presented to fetter our lib
critics Let US not rivet them.
