-Some time pince, a Savannah fire company
vlei ted Bostop,: where they were handsomely
entertained by two of the principal companies.
Since the return o? the visitors, a regular fire
of presents has been kept up on both sides.
From the Savannah companies, those In Bos?
ton have recently received a consignment of
valuable mocking-birds, turtles, coons, and
other productions Indigenous to the South,
which, it ls needless to say, were fully appre?
ciated. In return, one ol the Boston com?
panies is about to send a consignment of Mal?
tese cate, nine In number, with a promise of
others yet to come.
- . -The chronopher is the name of the instru?
ment which itupplies all England with the cor?
rect time. It is In direct communication with
the Greenwich Observatory, and with sixteen
of the principal cities of the kingdom, and pre.
clsely at 10 o'clock A. ii. the hour is flashed,
not only to those stations, but to every post
office in the country, so that all time is regu?
lated to the twentieth part of a second. Time
guns are fired evajy day at TP. M. at Ne weis
tie and Shields, by batteries connected with
the chronopher, and all the prominent watch?
makers In London receive the exact second
every boor from the same Instrument. Un?
der such strict regulations the uniformity of
time all over the kingdom ls as nearly perfect
as it can be made.
. -There are physicians who contend that
there ls no well authenticated case of hydro?
phobia affecting human beings; that it Is all
the work ol .he Imagination, acted OB by the
fears of the person bitten by a mad dog, or
one supposed to be mad. How do these gen?
tlemen account for the death of a child twen?
ty-one months old in Chicago on the 5th in?
stant, which, about four weeks previously,
had been bitten by a rabid dog? The doctor
in attendance reports that the child manifest'
ed every .'symptom o? rabies, refusing water
and all nourishment; seemed endowed with
supernatural strength, and showed all the
canine tendencies to bite its attendants; and
that it died In agony on the fourth day from
the attack. There was no imagination In
that case, certainly. Better that every worth-1
less cur in the land-muzzled or unmuzzled
should perish suddenly than that one human
being should suffer such tortures as the vic?
tims ot hydrophobia undergo.
-A curious condition of impecunloslty bas
overtaken the Chinese Embassy in Paris.
These Orientals were originally sent to France
about the time of the outbreak of the European
war, to off.T the apologies of the Emperor of
China lor the massacre of French subjects by
the Tien tain mob. They found, upon their
arrival, that the Emperor Napoleon had gone
^soldiering. But the Emperor never came
back, and while waiting for some opportunity
to present.their message to somebody author?
ized to receive lt, the. Government of France
took so many shapes as to perplex and con
lonnd the envoys. With the accession of M.
Thiers to power, the Embassy has attempted
to make the proper explanation to bim. M.
Thiers, however, refuses to receive the apolo?
gies which were intended tor the ex-Emperor,
and the envoys have been compelled to send
to China for a fresh set o$excuses, suitable to
the changed political aspect of French affairs.
But it seems that, en attendant, the envoys,
whose money has given out with the long de?
lay, ar? suffering the pangs ol poverty, and
have, lt ls whispered in diplomatic circles,
nearly exhausted their wardrobe o? t'lks and
satina iQ surreptitious visits to the national
pawnbrokerage v8tiblisbtu,ent ol the Mont de
P?ete, in ? heroic resolve to keep up appear?
ances.
-It ls not often that a millionaire makes a
compulsory visit to a Jail, and when he does It
is sufficient to command general attention and
draw together a great crowd to witness the
strange spectacle. On Thursday the stern de?
crees cf the New York coroner were lulfllled,
and the president, superintendent and engi?
neer of the Buiteu Island Ferry Company were
led to the Tomba. Mr. Vanderbilt, the venera?
ble president, as he walked by the police
captain, wore* a serious expression of counte?
nance, and staggered along with unsteady
6tride8ln his endeavor to keep np wilh the
jounger anti L risker officer. Mt Braisted,
the superintendent, was inclined to be taci?
turn, and listened reflectively to the conversa?
tion or the others, putting in an occasional grin
by way of comment. He was shabbily dressed,
and expended all his energies, apparently, on
whittling a pine stick which he carried under
his left arm. The negro engineer, Robinson,
we s the most agitated of the party.- He slid
along in a shame-faced manner, ana slunk into
the darkest corner as soon as the coroner's
office was reached. Here an ineflectual effort
was made to procure bail, and the queer trio
were marched off to the Tombs, where they
entered with wo-begone countenances-Bob
inson gloomily, Vanderbilt tremblingly, and
Braisted still whittling hi3 stick. Three hours
elapsed, and then the prisoners found bail and
liberty. ._
The South Carolina Railroad-Good
News nom England.
We are authorized to say that W. J,
Magrath, Esq., the President of the South
Carolina Railroad Company,*bas completed,
in London, the exchange of the new First
Mortgage bonis: of the Company, Tor the
over-due'Sterling bonds, endorsed by the
State. Mt'Magrath -sailed from ?Liverpool
for New York, in the" Java', on Saturday last,
and brings with him the old Sterling bonds
which were held in England.
This news, will be received with satisfac?
tion by the friends of the South Carolina
Railroad Company. The bonded debt of
the road is now in manageable shape, and
while the bondholders have a better invest?
ment in the amply secured First Mortgage
bonds, the Company is the gainer in being
relieved from the contingent danger of leg?
islative interference or State supervision.
This fact should enhance the market price,
as it unquestionably does the real value, o'
the stock of the Company.
The negotiation with the English Ster?
ling bondholders, was both delicate and
difficult. That President Magrath should
have closed the transaction so thoroughly,
and so quickly, is another justification of
the confidence reposed in bim, for so many
years, by the stockholders of his road.
Gloomy Crhp Accounts.
Very gloomy crop reports reach Charles?
ton from the whole Sou' t, and it would seem
that the sections of country which escaped
the floods and high winds, of Friday and
Saturday, are suffering severely from the
long-continuing drought.
Above Columbia, in this State, the rains
were light, Corn bas been terribly injured,
and.a half crop c! cotton is the best that
i can be expected. Similar accounts are given
by gentlemen who have recently passed
through the Georgia cotton region. The
staple there is said to be parched up by the
dry heat.
Upon the crop of long cotton the effect of
the gales is extremely disastrous. A plan?
tation on John's Island, which had the finest
cotton in the neighborhood, was entirely
submerged on Sunday. This crop is lost.
Nor are the accounts from Ed is to more en?
couraging. The crop was the finest since
the war, and equal to any of the crops be?
fore the war, but, according to the estimate
of one of the most intelligent planters on
the island, the gale has reduced tbs crop by
one-third.
There is a natural disposition in the South
to take a gloomy view of the crop prospect ;
because the last, two months have nipped so
many budding hopes, and because the
Northern operators are so universally san?
guine. But, making every allowance for a
tendency to look on the dark side, we are
confident that, under the most favorable cir?
cumstances, the cotton crop of ibis State
will be one-third less than that of last yoar.
And we doubt that any other Southern State
will do much better.
Bayonets at the Polls !
The Radical press throughout the land
protest that there is no danger to the citi?
zen in posting United.S tates troops at every
polling precinct in the Union. They treat
the arguments of Democratic statesmen and
journalists as "twaddleand buncombe," and
are positive that Blue Coats and Bayonets
ore rather favorable than otherwise to an
untrammelled exercise of the right -of the
suffrage. Against the experience of genera?
tions, the Radical writers and declaimers
cite an isolated fact. Because the United
States soldiers who were stationed at the
polls in Charleston on August 2 did secure a
free election to oil classes, the Radicals are
satisfied that bayonets will never be used for
securing a party triumph.
The civil authorities of Charleston are
Radicals of tho strictest and most unscrupu?
lous sect. Mayor Pillsbury was a candidate
for re-election. Sheriff Mackey regarded a
defeat in Charleston as likely to endanger
Radical supremacy in the State. The Chief
of Police, a Radical for the nonce, knew that
only the election of the Radical ticket could
save bim from official decapitation, or some?
thing worse. It could not be expected,
therefore, that these worthies would inter?
fere on behalf of the free American citizens
whom their negro bullies abused and beat.
Any demonstration on the part of the whites
would have been deemed here, and in Wash?
ington, a '?new rebellion." The only course
was to call upon the Federal soldiers, and
Mayor Pillsbury, driven, into a corner, gavj
to this measure his assent Mark this ! The
civil authorities were not unable to protect
the peaceable citizen. They were only un?
willing. The United States troops did what
the civil authorities, for their own selfish
purposes, abstained from doing. It was the
policy of the Radical officials to pump oil on
the flames. The soldiers, impartial and in?
flexible, were the conservators of peace.
As we have said, the United States soldiers
were stationed at the polls in Charleston to
prevent a political party from carrying ah
election by brute force. They insured fair
play to every citizen. But what the Radi?
cals aim at, in their Force bills and Bayonet
bills, is the overawing of Conservative vo?
ters by a display of armed men, who are
supposed to be ready to execute any order,
however iniquitous. This ?B the whole dif?
ference between that guarding of the polls
in this city which the Conservatives applaud,
and that eternal camping around the polls,
for party reasons, which every lover of con- j
stitutional freedom constantly and justly
condemns. And we confess that we cannot
see why the broadest knowledge of these
simple facts should, as the opposition main?
tain, spoil a barrelful of Democratic
speeches, or bluat the edge of their lo^ic.
That it should be necessary to call in a mili-!
tary force to protect a community from .oat
rages which the Radical officials permitted,
il they did not plaD, is bat one more potent
argument against the continuance Of that
infamous party mle which, in the blasphemed.
name of Freedom and Civilization, would
impoverish and make desolate the fairest
States of the South.
"Syndicate?."
Wall street rejoices in a new nomenclature.
Pools and cliques and rings are to be known
no more, and combinations and communes
are things of the past. "Syndicates" have
sprung lrom their ashes, and now we have the
Erie Syndicate, the Beading Syndicate, the
Panama, Western Union,"Pacific Mail, ?c..
Syndicates. There 1B 'something ponderous
and respectable about a-Syndicate. The very
sound of the name repudiates any suspicion of
aught but the most high-toned Integrity. Can
a "lame duck" ever be a Syndic ? Can a
"equeeze" ol the "shorts" ever form part of
the dignified operations of a Syndicate ? Un?
less words have lost iheir meaning, such a
name is a .guarantee against anything of the
kind.

^-MEDICAL MISTAKES.-IT TOOK
the faculty about a thousand years to discover
that the best way to cure disease was not to rend
er the patient too weak to contend with it. With?
in the last twenty years, however, the whole
system of medical practice bas been changed
for the better. In diseases or complaints caused
by excessive heat, for Instance, the ductors no
longer recommend the reduction of the Invalid's
strength by prostrating medicines. The vast sue
cess which has attended the use of HOSTETTER'S
STOMACH BUTE RS as a remedy for debility has
given even the most prejudiced members of the
old school an insight ic to the only true and ra?
tional theory of cure. Cantharldes, calomel, and
overpowering doses of opium are now among the
obsolete nostrums of another age. The lancet,
once as mnch the legitimate weapon of the physi?
cian as the 6word ls or the soldier, ls seldom
drawn from its case. The principle of life ls no
longer drained from theivelns by the quart, and
water-gruel for the strengthless invalid has
ceased to be considered an appropriate diet.
Vigor ls the motto of the rational members of the
profession, and they understand at last the value
of a sterling vegetable tonic. So also with the
people at large; and without consulting medical
men at all, they have adopted the Bitters as a
