TIE SAoR1srAN's HOUSEHOLD : A Story Of Lippe
Detmold. BY the Author Of au unit Marga-
ret's Trouble, With Illustrations BY @. e..
Bush. New York; Harper & Brothers. 1869.
Charleston: Holmes Book House..
1t is not often, even in these days Of trans
lations, that we meet with story of German
life so fresh. and withal so pure, as the one
now before us. There is no striking original
ity of plot and no straining after effect; but
the characters are well and clearly drawn, and
those who are familiar with the miniature cap
ital towns Of Germany will acknowledge the
truth and fidelity Of the whole quaint picture.
The story opens in 1865 and covers the excit.
ing times of the Austro .Prussian war, when
youth and mature age were eager to WELD the
sword for an United Germany. The popular
contest between Conservatism and Progress,
which was the mark Of those stirring days.
lends zest to the story, anl the chances of the
active struggle enable the honest hero to win
a willing bride. As we have said, it is lively
and amusing story, one which every one may
read with pleasure if not with actual profit.

farms are assessed at double and treble
their value. Two farms which sold after
the close Of the war for $1,000, and oan
be bought now at that price, arc assessed
at $27, 400.
In Spartanburg, according to the Gazette,
1t seems that after tho County Board. of
Equalization had met and acted upon the
assessment, as made by sworn assessors,
the County Auditor assumed the personal
responsibility Of increasing or equalizing
them. In what manner or by whose au-
shortly this equaliz ation was made the people
are ignorant. The county which had been
regarded as one Of the poorest in personal
effects in the State, now ranks next to
Charleston; the assessed value of the per-
sonal property being higher than in Rich
land-Whioh includes Columbia-George-
town, Beaufort or Greenville. This is COM
ment enough.
In the Town Of Sumter the real estate
was returned according to the valuation Of
three sworn appraisers, the owners having
nothing to do with it. The assessment for
the whole county has been raised so per
cent, which has put the town property at
oil events at price far higher than it
would bring in the market under the most
favorable circumstances.

CHI A r T. E S TON.
TUESDAY MORNING, JUNE as, 1869.
Peace OF. War.

The position Of the Emperor Napoleon is
one full Of embarrassment. There is no
doubt that the departments are still wits
him; but the cities and towns are opposed
to his dynasty, and their power is shown
by the fact that out of 5000, 900 votes
cast at the late elections, $500, 900
were given to the opposition candidates.
Even Paris, for which Napoleon has
done 80 much, will not be mollifed, and
has given the government candidates but q
beggarly show Of votes. If Napoleon is
determined to maintain peace at any price,
he may adopt one Of three lines Of policy
The choice is between taking back the
modicum Of freedom he has already grant
cd, changing the form Of government to
that Of . constitutional monarchy, and
making new bid for general popular sup
port. Any one Of these is open to many
objections. To set up q new despotism
would be to falsify the pledges and maxims
Of many years. To make himself the head
of 2 parliamentary government were dis
tasteful in the highest degree, whatever
sacrifice he may be willing to make for the
sake of the Prince Imperial. To bid for
the clamorous applause Of the people by a
change Of policy in regard to Rome, would
be to ALLEVIATE those who are now his strong
est supporters. And it must not be forgot
ten that the bitterest foes of Napoleon do
not desire to be appeased. They want q
republic, and will be satisfied with nothing
less. 5at
1t is, then, evident that In peace policy
Napoleon can hardly find an easy way Of
escaping from the difficulties which sur
round him. On the other hand, it is GER
tain that brilliant and victorious war
would restore his prestige and seat him
more firmly than ever on the throne. The
army is with the Emperor, heart and soul,
and Napoleon may be willing to run the
hazards Of . failure fer the sake Of the
chances Of success. The Emperor is not
one who threatens before he is ready to
strike the blow. When war comes 1t will
be without word OF serious warning; but
the speech Of the Emperor at, Chalons is
most significant, whether it be taken as en-.
couragement to the army OF a. q means OF
feeling the pulse Of France. Napoleon can,
Of course. declare once more that the EN-
pire is Peace; but there is now q, greater
probability Of European war than there
has been since the first days Of Magenta and
Solferino. Awar, indeed, is the only solu-
ton Of the difficulties Of the position which
suggests itself to the outside observer, and
Napoleon 10 not the man hesitate because
there is some chance that the remedy may
be as bad as the disease.

The CONDITION of things on our sea
islands is the subject Of very interesting
letter, printed in another column of TO-
days NEWS. The writer, by lifetime of
assiduous attention to the culture Of long
staple cotton, has identified his name in the
markets Of both hemispheres with it's sue
cessful production; and the thoughtful and
highly practical views he presents are emil
nently worthy tho attention Of all who are
interested in that important branch of the

a long letter, urging the people to deal with
the circumstances in which they are placed, so
as to make the most OF them. "Between two
evils, he says, ''let us choose the least. Under
this view of the case, should not hesitate TO

returning sense Of justice. I will take them as
they come, be they little or much, without in
quiry into the motive which prompts them,
If they enable us to take another step towards
the restoration Of our State to the rights Of
self-government." Mr.. Hunter elaborates his
views at some length. concluding as follows:
"The white people Of Virginia have now an op-
portunity to restore the State to the right of
self-goyernment, and to obtain the control of
its political power at home and in the General
Government. If they fail to do so it will be
their own fault. and owing to their apathy and
indecision. Before they lose such re suit, lot
them consider in time what loss it will be-;
let them remomber, too, that their majority,
though decided. is small, and to secure such
relief as is possible, every conservative voter
should cast his vote and unite in the common
cause. know that our position is difficult,
and that even if We obtain the victory, we shall
require wisdom, forbearance and energy to
reap it's fruits; but have faith i'll my fellow
citizens, and when I see virgnians ruling Viz

taken towards the restoration Of her rights

The opposite division of schismatics is
known as the POpOistchena. These possess
several distinct communities but their antag-
oniem is not SO clearly marked as that sub
sistipg between the brotherhoods Of the Bsz-
popoistohena, and their associations tend
rather TO union than to an infnity of petty
subdivisions. Their most ancient colony Is
that Of Kershenz, 80 called from the name OF
one OF the atfluents of the Volga, where an es-
adjustment was founded by the dissenters,
who were forced to flee before the persecution
OF the council Of 1866. They were the first to
depart from the creed of the mother Cauroh,
by admitting trinity composed of three hea-
veDly powers, amongst whom Jesus Christ,
whom they regarded as fourth divinity, was
not included. But in 1899 this heresy was
condemned by the Kersheng community
itself, and the dissidents returned to the ori-
ginal belief, and henceforward must be con-
sidered to be "anoient believers" in the same
sense as those of Vetka. About this period a
similar sect was founded by a monk named
Job, in the neighborhood OF Tamboff, which
spread to the Caucasus, the banks of the
Kuban, the Caspian and Azoff Seas, the 0dral,
the Terek, and the Don.
The Vetka colony first came into being in
1867. A great body of sohismatios, flying
from the rigorous treatment experienced in
their own country, crossed over the frontier
into Poland, and there obtained permission
to establish themselves, and build villages on
the little islet Of Vetks, formed by afluents
of the Dnieper, in the government OF Mohilef.
They erected a church; and soon their num-
bers decreased to forty thousand, and the Isle
of Vetks became kind of mother city for all
the scattered dependencies.
A Russian correspondent of the London
Herald, who has gathered these facts, says
''M. Schedo- Ferroti, to whose interesting
works am indebted for most of these details,
puts the number of dissenters of all kinds in
Russia at about nine millions"
