Politics IN THE SouTH.-Southern politics
must have assumed very novel phase when
we find such veteran democrat as Henry A.
Wise taking prominent place among the
candidates for Governor of Virginia, backed
as it is asserted. by republican national adj
ministration. There is but little doubt that
there is friendly feeling in Washington tow.
ard the venerable virginian politician, in
consequence of the course he took during the
late Presidential contest, and it would not be .
matter of very great surprise to see him taking
the reins of the State government of Virginia
again in his hands. This is good way of
establishing reconstruction. 1t is practically
reconstruction without misconstruction.

the Union and Central Pacific is about three
thousand three hundred and eighteen miles,
and by the Northern Pacific about two thou
sand nine hundred and eighty-three miles,
while the total line from London or Calais to
Calcutta, via Constantinople, would be about
six thousand four hundred and nine miles

cilities as the latter would afford in the old
countries of the East through which it would
pass, its value and significance, in q military
and diplomatic point Of view, would be greater
Constantinople occupies geographical posi-
ton which has always made it, in the eyes of
the great Powers Of Europe, ''the key to the
East" A railway such as our Pacific rail-
ways, running eastward from the great Turk
ish emporium, midway between the Black Sea
and the Eastern Mediterranean, skirting the
Persian border and the northern frontier of
Aghanistan, would in o few years develop and
people these regions with living wall Of op-
position to Russian encroachment from the
Caspian basin, Khiva and the Oxus Valley. It
would enable England and her Continental
allies to interpose an effectual barrier
to the Cars long-chershed designs of
supremacy in the Black Sea, which met
such bloody and disastrous defeat in the
Crimean war; And, what perhaps is Of quite
as great moment, not only to England,
but to all Southeastern Europe and South
western ASIA it would cut of the present Rus

Hall grows better and stronger, but re-
lapses soon into what is described as paralysis,
suffers exceedingly, becomes delirious, insensi-
BILE, and at last dies-'swent out like the snuff
of candle says Heron, the steward. Bessel,
the doctor, ascribed the death to apoplexy.
The absorbing question will be how this can
tally with symptoms of the disease. Sus-
picions, quarrels, open-worded or ominously
silent, distrust and dislike among those left
after Halls death, fit in ugly, ghoul-lke forms
across the narrative. The grave on the shore
Of Polaris Bay to all its other forbidding sur
roundings adds the mystery that enshrouds
the death of him who lies below. How will it
be solved?
In connection with this subject there recurs
the opinion pronounced to HERALD reporter
q few days since by DR.. Hayes, the Arctic sx-
plorer, that Captain Hall had been murdered.
It was o bold and startling theory which the
Doctor announced. But do the recitals Of the
survivors look as though it was all fair play
that had been used towards the strong man
who SO strangely died? In his touching con-
fidences with the half sayages by his bed
side there is o whole volume of doubt that he
had been fairly treated The reticence on the
subject of the officers who have sur
vived is another mystery in itself. They
are emphatically called upon by
every claim that man can make
upon his fellow man to throw what light they
can on this mystery in the Polar night, cost
what it may to whom it may.

TEE COLLEGE OF 0HARLEsTOM

The annual examiualion of the Sophomore
class of the College OF Charleston was COM
pleted yesterday morning. The subjects on
which the class was examined were Latin
and Greek-Tne Salires aud Epistles Of Hor-
ace and Xenophon's Memorabilia being the
textbooks; Roman History, from Montesqnieu
sur Ia Grandeur ct Decsdence des BurnalDs;
Spherical Trigonometry, Surveying. Level
ling and Topography.
The plats exhibiting the field work per-
formed By the claes during the term, were
brought out and examined. One Of the trus-
tees who was present, Mr. Ufsrhardt, was 80
much struck with the practical tendency OF
this branch of the general course, aud the
credItable manner In which 1t had been exc
culed, that he took from his watch a rich
compass, which hung as useful ornament
from bis chain, and handed it to the professor
to be awarded to The student whose examna-
tlon should prove most satisfactory.
The professor of mathematics habltually
takes his class into the fields fer practical Illus
tratlon and performance OF field work; and
the professor OF history and belles-lettres
u,ilizes the French language by usipg text
books only In that language.

BENEFITs OF LIFE ASSURANCE

We take the following from the Charleston
Courier OF yesterday:
"a good deal has been said In the public
prints about the benefits of life assurance, but
perhaps the most convincing proofs uro TO be
found in our own city. We allude to a case
which has come under our notice, and of
which we have been at some pains to get the
figures. In January OF the present year, Thos.
D. EAsop, E.q, well known citizen OF
Charleston, died. having his life insured In
the Equitable Life Assurance Society, OF which
Mr. VIM. B. shaw Is the general agent In this
State. The amount of the Insurance policy
upon Mr.. Eason's life was fifteen thousand
dollars. The following statement shows the
amount OF premiums paid by the Insured, cash
dividends paid to him and the amount OF cash
paid the claimant:

ut will be seen that the amount OF pre-.

an Offset to This, the total cash dividends re-
ceived by him was s5ss ss, which ls about
twenty-five per cent Of the whole amount of
premiums paid In.
"The amount OF the policy, sl5,00s 04, was
paid 10 Mrs. Eason on the 18th Of the present
month.
"Thls exhibit and promptness 10 settling
Its claims is another argument which cannot
fall to commend the Equitable Life Assurance
Society to the favor of the public"
And In this connection We would state that,
since its organization in 1859, the Equitable
has nobly fulfilled Its mission OF bene6cence to
the sorrowing, BY distributing among the
families of deceased policy. y.holders more than
81. 500, 600; and has paid, In this State, within
the past ninety daye, upwards OF s45, 900 to
