WASHINGTON, October 16.-There is the best
authority for saying that President johnson

elrTO THE VOTERS OF CHARLESTON
At regular nomination some time since, we believe
Colonel WM. PArrEN was the nominee for Mayor Of
this city. 1t will be recollccted when that nom na-
ton took place, that but few of our own citizens
could take the test oath and. according to the Re
construction acts of the Congress of the United
States, could not hold ofice.
Nov, Mr. Editor, would it be doing justice to Col
onel PArrEN 10 make another nomination ? We say
not. Colonel pATrEN was called upon in time OF
need and was the only available man anil choice OF
the citizens at that time.
We do not know Colonel PATTEN's politics, nor do
we ask them. He has lived amongst us for over
three years. invested his capital in the welfare OF tho
community, and from what we have seen of him, wo
ore surc he has the administrative abilities, and will

to poverty-many of them by the loss of
their slaves, the entire loss of their State

loss Of individual bonds and other proper

had never been so large as to oppress the
people. The Banks have surrendered, or
will surrender their entire assets for the
use Of their creditors. Under such circum-
stances, it will be found difficult, we Judge,
to obtain any jury IL the country who will
be willing to force the few remaining stock

outstanding debts of the Banks over and
above the exhaustion of the entire assets of
the Banks themselves

The Word OF God bidoth Forever.

We find the following beautiful thought
in the North British Review
'It is matter of congratulation that the
Bible has passed triumphantly through the
ordeal Of verbal criticism. English inf
dels of the last century raised premature
pean over the discovery and publication of
SO many various readings. They imagined
that the popular mind would be rudely and
thoroughly shaken, that Christianity would
be placed in imminent peril of extinction,
and that the church would be dispersed,
and ashamed at the sight of its Magma
Charta. But the result has blasted all their
hopes and the oracles of God are found to
have been preserved in immaculate integ-
rity.
"The storm which shakes the oak only
loosens the earth around its roots, and its
violence enables the tree to strike its roots
deeper in the soil.
$50 it is that Scripture has gloriously
surmounted every trial. These gather
around the Bible dense cloud of wit
nesses, from the ruins of Nineva and the
valley of the Nile from the slabs and bas-
reliefs of Sennacherib, and tombs and
mountains of Pharaoh; from roots of Chal-
dee paraphraSts, and Syrian versionlsts !;
from the cells and libraries of monastic
scribes, and the dry and dusty labors of
"Our present Bibles are undiluted by
the lapse of ages. Her oracles, written amid
such strange diversity of time, place and
condition-among the sands and cliffs of
Arabia, the fields and hills of Palestine-in
the palaces of Babylon, and in the dun
geonS of Rome-have come to us in such
unimpaired fullness and accuracy, that we
are placed as advantageously toward them
as the generation which hung on the lips
of Jesus, as He recited parable on the
shores Of the Gallilean lake, on those
churches which received from Paul or Pc.
ter one of their epistles of warning exposi-
ton.
yes the river of life, which issues out
from beneath the throne of God and the
Lamb, as it flows through so many coun-
tries, sometimes bear with it the earthly
evidences of it's conquests, but Il great
volume of its waters has neither been di-
minished, nor dimned in its transparency,
nor bereft of it's healing virtue"

Terrible Shipwrecks.

\ terrible shipWreck has occurred in the
English channel. The iron screw steamer
Gacoone, of Liverpool, while on her pas
sage from Bo! deauX to Liverpool, ran
ashore near the Lands End, and almost
immediately became a wreck. The cap
tain, chief mate, two stewards, and sixteen
passengers We're drowned, and the remain
der Of the crew had the utmost difficulty
in escaping IN the boats. A severe gale
ragged on the northeast coast on the 23d OF
May.
The Indian mail also brings accounts OF
terrible collision between two large ships
IN the river Hooghly. The impact seems
to have been very strong, and both vessels
sank, the calamity being accompanied by
the lpss of several lives and the destruction
Of 800, 900 worth of property. One of the
vessels, the Agamemnon, belonging to Liy-
erpool, was homeward bound for London,
aud the other, the Ethel. was about to
commence her homeward passage to Dun
dee.
