GOVERNOR SCOTT IN NEW YORK.

The New York Times of Wednesday says: "Gov
Scott, of South Carolina, was in this city day or
two ago on business connected with the interests Of
the Palmetto State. He represents the condition
of affairs in South Carolina at this time as very
promising. The State is profoundly peaceful, and
it appears to divide the credit with North Carolina
of being the most orderly of all the Southern States
The coorcd people are becoming more and more
INDUSTRIOUS and are showing themselves better
adapted to tho new condition OF things. There is
o promise of something being done to advance the
railroad interests of the State, and other projects
of internal improvement are under discussion
The leadings Democrats of the State accept the
facts of the late election in proper spirit, and
press willingness 10 labor heartily in the direc-
ton of peace and concord. While in Wail-sreet
attending to certain monied necessities fthe State
Governor Scott passed round an open letter signed
by Wade Hampton and other representative South
Caronians, giving their views of the prospects of
the State, and the feelings entertained by the white
population Governor Scott is hopeful of the fu-
ture and gives good grounds for the hopes he ex-
presses"

story Of his achievements. The posts are cannon
employed in the Revolution, while two sabres
crsssed, and surmounted with cavalry cap cast
in iron from the connecting link overhead the en-
trance. This monument is not far removed from
the graves of the poor Confederates, and we could
not help contrasting the legacy bequeatheo by
fortunate soldier with the results attained by the
noble defenders of an unsuccessful cause But we
must draw veil over this picture, for such Thoughts
always awaken memories too dear for the rude
hand of the present day.
These grounds are laid out with great regularity
and becoming taste. The placid waters oil TIC
beautiful lakes seem fitting accompaniment Tor
the silent slcepers beneath, and the perfect wealth
of evergrecns, with the huge trees deeply fringed
by long grey moss, add much to the quiet attract
iveness of this sacred place. On the outer edge,
the eye beholds n vast ezpanso of water, and be-
yond are the villages of Mt. Pleasant and sulli-
vans Island, with the forts and other prominent
defenccs familiar to every one in this generation.
To the right is m excellent view of the city, and
the towering spire of old St. Mich@pa rises far
above the rest. Aside from the beauty of the Gene
terry itself, this scenery is we'll worth q visit.
The shades of evening coming on, We we're forced
to leave this lovely retreat, and driving rapidly
back to the city, passed over the s'shell road SO
lately constructed, and on through to the battery,
which is the fashionable promenade for pleasant
afternoons. But we had fingered too long at
Magnolia, and the moonoeams assured US taat the
ondness of pedestrians for this favoritc resort did
not include the chilly air of November evening.
Receiving this admonition rather forcibly than
otherwise for the atmosphere had again changed,
we sought more cheerful welcome indoors.
And so ended our days ramble. II.

To-day has been balmy and bright. The cold
east winds of yesterday have vanished and the at
mosphere indicates brief enjoyment of the de-
lights experienced when the Indian summeris upon
us. In this glorious old city, where are to be seen
so many beautiful faces, such day allures one 10
King street, the thoroughfarc of beauty and fash
ion. An excellen: bachelor friend of mine, from
one of the upper Districts, has devoted much Of
his sojourn here in Witnessing the array Of blie-
some maidcns congregated uron this street. Why
not married man. and an editor at that, share in
the transisory pleasure? But mn not going 10
describe King strcct, even when gorgcousiy attircd
and thronged with hundreds and thousands Of fair
creatures Many are familiar with the sccne, and
others might not be interested.
This afternoon, in company with pleasant and
agreeable lady, visited Magnolia Cemeiery,-thc
beautiful home of the dead, which is being taste
fully renovated and adorned. We drove leisurely
through the grounds, but time forbade any minute
examination of even the principal monuments
e.cctcd to departed worth. The Plat of land ne
sigrcd to the Confederate dead is an object Of
great attraction, not less for its simple beauty
than from the fact that herein arc deposited the
mortal remains of unpretending heroes. Hum
dreds of graves are regularly arranged, and care
fully marked with the namo, rank, company and
regiment of The deceased.
The next object of interest was the monument
erected to Col. WILLIAM WAsHNGToN, of Rcvolu-
tiouary fame and memory. This enduring tesli-
monia of q country's gratitude to ali ardent pa
triot richly deserves passing notice The nscrip'

Complaints have been received from the leading
physicians and families in the Southern States OF
the sale of cheap limitations of the Schiedam Arc
matte Schnapps in those markets; and travellers,
who are in the habit Of using it as en- antidote TO
the bancful influence of unwholesome river water,
testify that cheap gin pu: up in Schiedam bottles,
is frequently palmed off upon the unwary. The
agents of the undersigned have been requested 10
institute nruries on the subject, and to forward
to him the names of such parties as they may as
certain to be engaged in the alrocious system OF
deception. In conclusion, the undersigned would
say tha: he has produced, from under the hands OF
the most distinguished men of science IN America,
proofs unanswerable of the purity aud medicinal
excellence of the Scheidam Aromatic Schnappss;
that he has expended '.any thousand dollars IN
surrounding it with guarantees and safeguards,
which lie designed should protect the public and
himself against fraudulent limitations: that he has
shown it to be The only liquor in the world that
can be uniformly depended upon as unadulterated;
that he has challenged investigation. analysis,
comparison, and experiment in oil its forms; and
from every ordeal the preparation which bears his
name, seal and trade mark, has come of trium-
phant. lie therefore feels it duty he owes to
his fellow citizens generally, to the medical pro-
fession and the sick, to danounce and expose the
charatnns who counterfeit these evidences OF
identity, and he calls upon the press and the pub
lie to aid him in his efforts to remedy 80 great an
evil. -

leading physicians and chemists Of this city will
