that OF France or that Of Spain; why,
then, should she be singled out for such
enduring resentment, while other ma
tions equally oulpabie are tacitiy for
given? It is we'll established, as O his
torical fact, that during the war the EN-.
peror Napoleon proposed to recognize
the Confederate Government on condi-
tion that England would join him in so
doing; and nothing but tn. peremptory
refusal Of the English GoverRment pre-
vented his doing so., Yet General But
ler has nothing to say OF the unfriendly
action of France, and no exhortation for
Americans to cherish undying resentment
against the French for this act of her
Government
General Butler is understood to be in
favor of war with England, not only as
means of Furnishing her for her hostile
action during the war, but as q means Of
promoting the growth and enhancing
the prosperity OF our own country. That
question is certainly open to argument,
and there is no reason why General But
ler should not seek to make converts to
his view of the case. The closing para
graphs of his Gloucester speech may be
intended to accomplish that purpose.
We are not greatly alarmed at his pros
pect Of success. Past experience shows
that the great body OF the American
people are accustomed to take more
calm and dispassionate views of ex-
citing public questions than the Eng
lish; and we have no doubt they will de-
eide this issue wisely and with due
regard to the public welfare.
General Butler not only favors war
with England, but the 'hest rigors Of
martial law toward the 'ople of the
Southern States for the preston of
crime. We have no symp.. .ly with the
policy, or the feeling which prompts it.,
in either case. The paramount necessity
of the country is peace, and the growth
which peace cannot fail to give us. And
we have very little doubt that we shall
have it, in spite Of General Butler, if not
with his help. The duty of the hour, in
our view, is rather to allay than to arouse
resentments either toward the people of
the Southern States or toward Eng
land.-Ne,o York Times.

A FRIEND TO THE 1t is

strong sympathizer with the "Lost
Cause" and especially that she at one
time ordered steps to be taken for active
hostilities against the North; yet Mr..
Secretary Perry, Of the American Lega-

divide this country was 80 great in 1868

South, in the following language:
In this speech the orator setsforti and
proves that the Southern cotton interest

lie, before the rebellion, used to bring
into the country an annual sum of $780,

WHY "TwINKLETH" THE STARs?--
About the twinkling of stars much has
been written, not merely by nursery
rhymsters, but by true philosophers; for
the subject, simple enough at first
thought, becomes pUzzling when it is
closely studied. The momentary changes
Of color, and the flashing intervals of
obscurity, are not susceptible of rough
and ready explanation. Arago invoked
the principle known as interference to
account for the phenomenon. Light
being n wave motion, if the elevation of
one wave meet the depression of an
other, destruction of both ensues, and
darkness comes of the interference. He
held that the different strata of air en-
countered by stars light coming to the
earth refracted the component rays va
riously, and threw them into confusion,
making them clash and become extinct.
But q Roman astronomer, Professor
Respighi, has lately oyerthrown this
theory, and shown that the scintillations
are to be referred to momentary devia-
tions from their straight path of certain
OF the colored rays which unite to form
beam of starlight. Our atmosphere
first disperses or separates the colors,
and then, for an instant, turns the
course OF some of them, leaving the
others to come to the eye. The curious
part OF Professor Respigi's announce
ment is, that the rotation of the earth
has an influence on the twinkling, for,
by spreading out,stars's images into long
spectra, he has noticed that these lumi-
nous streaks are rapidly traversed by
dark furrows which sometimes pass in
one direction and sometimes in another.
These shadowy streamings are doubtless
the spread-out scintillations, and their
varying directions across the spectrum,
upwards for stars in the West, down
wards for stars in the East, and oblique-
ly for those in other parts of the sky,
show them to be, to some extent, caused
by atmospheric fluctuations depending
upon, or connected with, the earth's ro-
tation. The professor finds that not di-
rection only, but speed OF passage also,
is coincident with the terrestrial motion.

Mr., EDITOR Permit me to call atten-
ton to matter Of public interest. The
drop-letter box, lat the post Office, in Co.
lumbia, isiplaced withinEa few inches of
the window, for the general delivery of
letters. That portion of the miserable
building used for the post Office is usually
blocked up with people applying for let
ters; especially is this the case about the
time for the mails to be delivered. AT
such times it is almost impossible to put
letter in the Office. This may be avoid
ed by placing the box for drop letters in
that portion of the building fronting on
Lady street. If the new postmaster de-
sires to evinoe any consideration for the
convenience of the public, the change
will be made Mt once. The key-boxes
and glass-boxes furnish some protection
for the quiet citizen to receive letters;
but in order to drop letters into the Office,
every one has to fight his way through
the crowd, at the general delivery win
dow. At present, no lady can go to the
Office in the face of the crowd of anxious
letter seekers. Might not this be avoided
by having separate window for females?
These suggestions, if carried out, will
promote the convenience of all parties,
without regard to color, race or pre-
vious condition" I"
