Adyices from strasbourg state that the Prus-

been exchanged. The people are determined
to defend the place to extremity.
In the Corps Legslatif, to-day, Deputy Kel-

days, and there was no news as to what had
been done. The Corps could not think Of any
other matter. The meeting must be perna-

Minister Palikao said it was not proposed to
speak Of the defeat the Prussians are said to
have sustained. He had no official dispatches
touching yesterdays events, but had news
from reliable sources that the enemy were
checked several times, and was retiring from

lFRox OUR OWN CORRESPONDENT

COLUMBIA, August 10.
The effort OF the Columbia correspondent OF
the Scott Ring organ to make capital out OF
the burial of Pleasant Goode is 80 feeble a
thins-so pitiable falsehood-that nobody
would care to mention it were it not that its
littleuess shows to what straits they are re-
duced. This correspondent stated that the
Reform party had refused to pay for the coffin
OF Pleasant Goode. The coffin was ordered
and paid for by private ci,izsns; and the Re
form party hal MO more 10 do with it than the
Scott Ring or the Randolph Monument COM
mittee have. The fact that they resort to
such, trickery as this invention, shows that
thew are in O condition when men catch at
straws.
The Reform movement has already made I'M
porsant DR. ,sress among the colored citizens VI

per time. But the u1easiness of the snti.Re-
formers appears in scores of ways.

NEWBERRY y. H., August IA.
On Saturday last the colored people had
grand picnic at Jalappa, about seven miles
from here, on the Laurens Railroad. About
one thousand colored and about six white
people were present. These white men had
circulated a report that the white people in
tended to break up the picnic, and induced the
negroes to bring their arms. During the pic
mic politics were discussed and the crowd
divided on some local issues, and commenced
quarrelling. While thus engaged a coiored
man accidentally shot an opponent dangerous
ly in the thigh. The friends Of the wounded
man opened fire upon the man who had inflct-
ed the injury; his friends returned the fire.
This was kept up for few seconds, and both
sides left the field hurriedly. No one was kill
ed. but few were mortally-scared.

The Northern Pacific Rail-
Road.

The following are named as
among the comparative advant-
ages Of the Northern Pacific
Railroad, the early construc-
ton of which now seems TO be
assured:
J.. The distance from Lake
Superior to Puget Sound is
shorter by more than three
hundred miles than by the road
now opened. For purposes of
Asiatic commerce, it is practi-
ally q thousand miles shorter,
it being well known that vessels
sailing eastward from Japan
and China to our Peciic coast
are compelled by winds and
currents to beat up north so
far as Puget Sound, and then
hold to the coast southwark in
order to reach San Francisco.
2. 1t is the most direct line
from the great cities on the
Atlantic coast.
3. Puget Sound, the Pacific
terminus of the road, as a large
bay extending far into the inte.
rior of the country, and nav
igable for the largest ships,
which may be moored in safety
to it's very banks; while at the
eastern end there are the ad.
vantagesof uninterrupted water
communication from the head
of Lake Superior by way of
the Erie Canal to New York,
and by the Wellond Canal,
Lake Ontario and the St. Law
renee TO the Atlantic Ocean.
q. 1t has very marked ad-
vantages over the Central and
Union route as respects grades
and snow distractions.
5. II has better facilities ofI
construction as respects timber,
iron, and other materials, and
navigable waters by which to
transport them than any other
route which has been examined
or can be found.
6. The Northern road will
open to settlement and cultiva-
tion a better agricultural region,
and probably attract a larger
and better emigration from the
States and from Europe, than
the other line most favored as
to location.

Getting Rich.

Some of the Banks in Ohio
are, even during these dull and

semi-annual dividends of 7 IL
per cent. The reason why
these Banks are becoming rich
so fast is because these great

tage of city and village depoS.

villages, school districts, ETC.

Sometimes rust can be re-
moved from polished iron or
steel with little difficulty; but
sometimes it can be made to
disappear without polishing
the surface anew. Rust is OK
ide of iron. The oxygen of the
atmosphere unites with the iron
chemically, thus forming a thin
scale on the surface, not one
thousandth part of an inch in
thickness, Red rust may be
formed on the polished surface
a thousand times without mat
erially corroding the metal,
provided it be removed soon
after it has formed, The usual
manner of removing red rust is
to cover the rusty portion with
common olive oil, and rub it in
we'll with a woolen CLOTH
After it has stood a few hours,
rub the parts with finely pul.
verized Stacked lime, or Span
ish whiting, until the rust is all
removed. fired rust is allowed
to accumulate until the polished
surface is corroded, sweet oil
and severe rubbing will sci.
dom remove it. The entire
surface must be repolished with
emery, or some other grit, be-
fore black rust will disappear
from polished steel OF any other
metal Manufacturer.

Important to School Teach.
ePg.

There seems to be a very
general impression among
teachers throughout the State,
that a school teachers Ger.
tifcate issued in one county is
vailed in another. This is a
wrong impression. A certi.
ficate to teach is only valid in
the county in which it is issued,
and is worthless to its possessor
outside of the limits Of that
county. We are informed by
State School Commissioner
Henkle that he is beseiged
with letters asking for infor-
nation on the subject. There
was a bill introduced at the
late session Of the legislature
providing for a change of the
present law on the subject, but
the bill failed to pass, and the
old law is still in force.

An eruption of the volcano
of Ceboruco, in the State Of
Jolisco, in Mexico, commenced
on the Goth of February last,
and is still belching fort flames
rocks, minerals, ashes, &C.
The noise is like that Of thun-
der.clapS continued in quick
succession. There are eight
cavities open. Four of these
are conspicuous for their tre-
mendous force. When they
belch forth simultaneously, as
they oftent do, the ground for
miles around seems to shake as
if moved by an earthquake;
volumes of flames ascend to-
ward the heavens, and clouds
of ashes 6ll the air; great piles
Of stone are whirled about as if
they were strawS picked up by
the whirlwind.' During the
nighttime the scene is awfully
grand. Masses of snperititious
people gather in the distance,
and looking toward the volcano,
plead to "JesuS, Mary and
Joseph" for mercy. Artists,
savans and newspaper men
from different parts Of the Re-
public are taking sketches and
notes of this most unprecedent,
ed voclanic eruption.
