News from the European WARM
dicates that the armistice will close
without peace being attained. The
dissensions between the Bordeaux
Government, headed by G1mbetta,
and the Paris Government, headed
by Favre, seem irreconcIlable. All
seem to think that the days OF tho
Republic are numbered, and that
either Napoleon or an Orleanlst
will ASCEND to the control Of affairs
eventually. The Pope is announc-
cd as interesting himself in behalf
of Napoleon. Bismarck is said to
be insane, his mind having given
way under the great labor that has
been upon him.

ing lands that can be adopted? I predict they
will, and that draining by Tile will soon be-
come quite popular hobby: The reason I
offer for the faith that is in me is, that it will
pay we'll. 1t will touch the financial artery
and give it increased force. Self:interest is the
great motive power of the human heart and if
undertaking shall be found as compehsating
here as elsewhere, it must soon become part
of the policy of our farmers generally. Nor
have any doubt but that the value of real
estate, unless thwarted by maladministration
Of the laws, will be doubled, and in many in
stances, quadrupled.
AS have not the vanity to suppose that my
humble opinion in favor of this policy is cal
culated to influence others to adopt it, + insist,
in conclusion, that all who are unbelieyers will
visit the Tile factory of Mr.. Graytorj and wit
ness their practical application on his farm,

complished an important purpose by its publi-

A DESERVED TRIBUTE.-The Saturday Re
sic,o, the most scholarly and discerning of the
English weeklies, in noticing the memoir of
the late General J. Johnston Pettigrew of this
State, written by W. H. Trescot, Esq, pays the
following well-deserved tribute to the integrity
and motives of the Confederate leaders:
"a brief, touching, sensible and manly me-
moir of General Pettigrew, one of the many
brave distinguished Southerncrs who fell in the
service of the Cenfederacy, is not only becom-
ing monument of good and honorable life
tration of the general character of the South
ern military leader-of the spirit and temper in
which the 'save-owning oligarchy' really en-
tered into the war. No one who has read or
heard enough of the character of the Confeder-
ate Government and staff to know how largely
both were composed of such men as Lee Jack
son and Pettigrew-mcn of the highest moral
character, of pure and simple piety, whose
course only the bitterest party malice can
ascribe to any other motive than a profound
sense of duty--can doubt that from first to last
the Southern people firmly, devoutly, and even
dispassionatelY, believed in the justice of their
cause, and, IN taking up arms for the State
against the Union, conceived that they were
acting in obedience to the law as we'll rs in de-
fence of the right To talk Of 'causeless and
wicked rebellion is possible only to those who
will not or do not know what manner Of men
the rebel leaders wero; and there must be
something wrong about the heart or intellect
of the man who, having read this short and
simple record of the life of one who was an
active participator in the events which led to
secession, and an active soldier in the war
which followed it, can repeat that party shib-
boleth without sense of compunction and self
distrust."

Mr.. EDITOR On a recent visit to Columbia,

DR.. Ensor, the Superintendent of the Asylum,
and his assistant, DR.. Henry Sloan, (who, by
the way, is native of our County, the son of

inspecting the Lunatic Asylum, and was so
rnuch pleased that I can not refrain from say
ing that the institution, in my opinion, is man
aged as well as it could be, under existing ar
rangements. Everything is scrupulously clean
and neat, and DIR. Ensor appears to have pc
culiar adaptation to his charge. In the two
days that visited the Asylum, did not see a
single inmate in bad humor. I saw and con-
versed with most of the inmates from this por-
ton of the State. found one enjoying game
of Billiards, and another amusing himself work.

understand that liberal appropriation was
made by the last Legislature to extend the
building, which is an absolute necessity, and
that another appropriation will be made as
early as practicable to renew the furniture, &C.,
which will add greatly to the comfort of the

pie could but visit this institution under its
present management, no complaint would be
uttered as to any money necessary to alleviate
and restore this afflicted portion of our people.
