Frederick, who only few months ago sue
ceed his father William as emperor of Ger

morning of cancer of the throat. Although
his reign was SO short, yet, perhaps mainly
on account OF his being all the time on the
brink OF the grave, he won the love Of not
only his own people, but of the civilized

He is succeeded by his son William, with

the 18th instant has been received. I have
read the proceedings of the City Council OF
Charleston in reference to the amendments
Of the City Ordinances, SO as to permit the
sale Of certain articles on the Lords Day.
regret to see that the bill providing for
fhis amendment has passed. It is but the
opening wedge that may il the end destroy
the respect which Christian people have
always had for the day that God has conse-
Grated and set apart as "day Of rest"
The ordinance as amended IS IN direct
conflict with section 1852 Of the General
Statutes Of the State, and under Section ], ,634
Of the same statutes it will be the duty of
the trial justices of Charleston, notwith-
standing said ordinance, to impose the fines
and forfeitures prescribed by said section
upon such persons as may expose to sale
any wsres, merchandise, &c, upon the
Lords day. Yours very respectfully,
Jos. II. EARLE.

refers prohibit the sale OF 'any wares,

cases, though be has done nothing bat his
