Mortality OF White and Colored Races
in Charleston Compared-Census Re-
turns-Sevon White and Five Colored
Counties.
fFRoM OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT


The official repor; of the registered deaths
in the City OF Charleston give US some interesting
points which may throw light upon the census re-
turns now coming in. The relative death-rate OF
the two races appears in the following figures:
In 1858, there were registered in Charleston
1908 deaths, which, assuming the population to
have been the same as this year, Is per cent OF
2.6s. or these 1905 there were 800 whites and SlS
colored persons; and as the numbers OF the two
races were 2o 1855 whites and 24,7S6 colored, the
per cent. OF deaths was, Of whites .193 and OF
colored persons $50.
II we now take the year ending the 31st OF Oc-
tober, 1869, the number Of deaths are 4a7 whites
and el5 oolored persons, and this gives US I'll per
cent. Of whites and $3.50 Of colored persons.
Again, If we take the deaths Of the ten months
ending the 31st Of October, 1859, we have 375
whites and IT'S colored persons which Is 2.9S per
cent of whites and 3.74 Of colored persons per IN
mum.
That is to say, the difference in the per cent. OF
deaths, between white and colored, was, In 1868,
l.S7 In the year ending 31st OF October, 1869, it
was 1853; and in the ten months just ended, it has
been 1.51 per annuna.
THE STATE CENSUS.
Thus far twelve counties have been heard from,
and in seven of these there is majority OF whites,
and in five there is majority Of colored persons.
The seven are-Anderson, Chesterfield, Green
vile, Horry, Lancaster, Oconee, and Spartan
burg.
The five are-Chester, Darlington, Marlboro,
Sumter and Williamsburg.
In Chester the per cent Of white population
that votes is 2O6o; while that of the coored popu-
lation is 1s.49.

When Thackeray died it was supposed, from
his generous sympathies and his free mode OF lv-
ing, that his daughters were left without sup
port, and Messrs. Smith & Elder, the London pub
fishers, to their honor be 1t said, sent them check
book with every check signed, to be filled up as
their wants should require; but fortunately the
father had left behind a competency for their sup
port.
"A New York letter of Tuesday says: "At last
Judgment is to overtake the hero of Fort Fisher
and New Orleans. In the Superior Court, to-day
Judge Jones granted an order Of arrest against
General BENJAMIN F. Butler. on the application Of
a party now residing in Florida. The charge
against the doctor is for stealing spoons. 1t is
hoped that no cunning on the part of the valiant
defendant will prevent pure justice from being
meted out to him. Verify, the way Of the spoon
stealer is hard.
Since Mrs. Stowe has brought up the subject
OF Byron's matrimonial infelicities attention has
been called to the trouble which the nuptial tie
has occasoned the authors OF Britain. Some es-
capped by deyoting themselves TO celibacy, promi-
nent among whom are David Hume, Macaulay,
Charles Lamb, Goldsmith and Gibbon, though
the latter, like Cowper was crossed in love. Keats
and Kirke White died single, but were too young
to marry. Colcridge's married life was buried in
his opium excesses. Shelley abandoned his wife,
who subsequently committed suicide, while in
later days Bulwer put his wife in a lunatic asy-

whose cup OF domestic bitterness has often over
flowed.
The Emperor monopozes an entire wing OF
the new Paris Opera-house. The imperial car
riages, on arriving at the private entrance which
is as large nearly as the principal facade, drive up
an inclined plane, which takes them right into
the house, on q level with the principal tiers OF
boxes so that his Majesty steps out Of his equip
age almost at the door OF his lOge Another in
clIned plane takes the carriage down again on
the other side, where stables and coaches are pro-
viied for them. Inside the house, beside the state
box, with its private salon behind it, with boxes
adjacent for the suite, and waiting rooms for the
cent-oardes and attendants, there is magnif-
cent circular saloon, OF vast height and dimen-
sions, adorned with twelve gigantic marble col
umns, and out OF which open, on either side,
other retiring and dressing rooms for the Emperor
and Empress.

Mg- IMPAlRED DlGESTION. "A u u
the organs Of the body are, so to speak, the pen
sioners OF the stomach. In that living laboratory
Is prepared the nourishment required to sustain
them, and by the vessels and ducts connected
with the digestive apparatus, that nourishment Is
conveyed to every part Of the system. Upon the
quality and quantity Of this element Of life, and
upon the manner in which it is distributed and
apportoned, physical health mainly depends, and
as the mind inevitably sympathizes with the body,
the vigor OF the one is absolutely necessary to the
well-being Of the other.
1t is because HOSTR ER'S STOMACH BIT
TIERS accomplishes this double object that IL en-
Joys a reputation as preventive and curative
never heretofore attained by any medicinal prep
aration But its direct beneficial operation upon
the weak or disordered stomach is not its sole re-
commentator. 1t is the most comprehensive Of
all known remedies. 1t tones, strengthens and
regulates the discharging as well as the assimi-
lating organs; gently moving the bowels, promo
ting heathful evaporation through the pores,
rousing the inert liver from Its torpor, and induc-
ing harmonious and natural action in the whole
animal machinery. This benign result Is not pro-
duced by any OF the reactionary drugs which are
used so lavshly in the old school practice, found
ed by Paracelsus; but by mild, safe and agreeable
vegetable agents intermlxed with pure and mei-
low stimulant which diruses their innnuce
through the system and renders their sanitary
