IsoLETTE, THE FEMALE SPY.-A STORY OF
CHARLESTON AND THE WAR-BY J. WTTHERsPooy
ERvN-The issue of June 4th Of that standard Caro-
lima paper the Yorkville Enquirer, will contain the
first chapters of thrilling nouYellette under the
above title, written expressly for ts columns by one
Of the most popular authors in the State
One of the most painful circumstances connected
with the heroic defence of Charleston, during its
three years of SIEGE Is to be found IN the fact that
during all this time, there we're persons IN the city
Sin high life, who were engaged as spies In sending
information to the besegers. Drawings Of the ford-
hcatons were furnished, weak points noted and the
movements of troops indicated as sooh begun and
the feet nened OF the time OF arrival and departure
of running vessels. So cautiously did these
emissaries Of the enemy conduct their work. TINT for
long time the skn of the most eminent detectives
was basd In their endesvors to break up the Illicit
correspondence. These spies were the source OF e1.
treme annoyance to the commanders IN Charleston,
and tho information they were enabled to furnish
often thwarted their best matured designs upon the
enemy. As proof Of the completeness of this con.
spiracy It may be remarked that the daily papers, of
the city were frequently read on board the blockade
feet the same day of their publication.
The author Of .Isolette, or the Female Spy" has
taken the principal character and incidents In this
sffatr and under assumed names has presented them
in the form of thrilling and well written romance
historic and imaginative. Fhe circumstances OF the
story are detailed as beginning on james Island, and
In connection with Of the South Carolina reg-
ments stationed there. After many thrilling ad-
ventures In which the "female spy" figures large
ly the heroes of the plot follow their regiment to
Virginia, before the walls of Petersburg. The sur
render Of General Lees army, in 1855, finds them
again among the santee hils where the narrative
closes.
Pereons who wish to secure this interesting story
complete should send in their subscriptions at once,
as only limited number of copies Of the paper will
be printed to supply future orders. To accomno.
date persons who desire the Enquirer on account Of
the story, the following are the terms In advance:
One copy, thres months. 81; ten copies, three
months 81 so; one copy, one year, s3 80. Address

TIE GOVERNOR ELEcT.-A correspondent
writing to the New York Tribune to correct some
errors of statement in regard to the career of Gene
raj R. z. Scott, takes occasion to say: "For two
years past he has been Commissioner Of the Freed
mems Bureau for South Carolina. During this tune
he has been known by the people of that State for
his fairness and honesty, his plain gentlemanly man
ners, and his repugnance to red tape. Indeed am
quite sure that no loya, could have been exalted
to the high position which General Scott has achieved
in South Carolina who would be more popular and
respected by all parties Of the Palmetto State than
himself"
