V\. Tho Nevr?pa.|*rj-Its, C?c?.
? ?The even te of fc&day have more
interest than those of yesterday. So
xoeu are fast giving tip booka for
-newspaper*.''
; /s That thia is true, is beyond ques
. tion. Even the child of a few years,
just spelling ont the words he can
scarcely pronounce, as be pores over
. ,-*he advertisements or tho locals of
a morning paper, is a living evidence
of the universal utility of the news
ua?er; for we have ue?er yet seen a
. -y family bf children grow np ignorant
or uninformed of ourrent events,
when the nexespaper was a daily
<!'?? visitor at their homo. And when wo
say newspaper, we mean emphatically
a daily jounjj^ of vmcs. Literary
weeklies or moi^hly periodicals, and
especially the dfcjority of those pub?
lished at tho North, aro no substituto
for the newspaper in a family, and,
indeed, too frequently are injurious
to the formation of correot habits
and tastes in literary matters.
As the boy grows up to manhood,
i he does not lose the desire to peruse
the ne wspapers. From mere ourrent
local events, he passes on to para?
graphs of more importance, which
are to bo found in every newspaper
in the country-paragraphs briefly
stating the merits of new inventions,
soientiSo discoveries, what is going
on in Europe and other countries,
and what progress the world is mak?
ing in arte, science and literature.
From these, he begins to turn to
politics-which, by-the-way, as par?
ities, are now manipulated by politi?
cians, had better be avoided-and
soon begins to form an opinion for
himself on the public questions of
' the dayl The daily teachings of his
political monitor soon begin to mani
fest themselves, and he is a "party"
man before he is well aware of it.
Although politics is a bad trade to
follow, yet it is highly proper that
the rising young citizen should have
a knowledge of political events, and
educate and prepare himself to dis?
charge the duties and obligations
that will soon devolve upon him.
He reaches manhood and enters
seriously upon the business of life.
He now finds that the information
? . he has garnered-the result, perhaps,
of an hour or two's reading every
day-is really invaluable to him in
almost any avocation or pursuit in
life he may select, or into which he
* may be compelled to embark by cir?
cumstances. The merchant, the me?
chanic, the petty tradesman, tho
large contractor, the dealer iu small
wares-all feel the benefit nf ?heir
newspaper reading in the past, and
all realize the necessity of keeping
posted up in the daily events of the
world. The world moves forward
npw more in a day than ten cen tu
ries ago it moved in ten years, and
the people npon it live now longer in
a day than Methuselah did, perhaps,
in his; long, long life; and in this
accelerated progress the newspaper
has been tho chief agency-the most
important lever, in rolling it onwards.
The merchant, tradesman or me
ohanio commences business, and the
newspaper opens up to a daily cor?
respondence with thousands of cue
tomers-if he chooses to avail him?
self of the opportunity. He may get
hundreds of hand-bills printed, and
supply himself with reams of circu?
lars, but the advantage derived from
this mode of making known to his
friends what he has on hand to sup
ply their wants, most be very limited
and frequently is of no use whatever
The hand-bill is read and forgotten
and the circular probably thrown
' among the pile of waste paper. With
the newspaper it is different. Every
impression that comes from the press
is read, on an average, by fl vc people
and that journal must have a limited
circulation which does not every
morning present his advertisement
Wore the eyes of more tuan a thou?
sand readers.
The farmer has his seed timo and
harvest, and the capitalist has his
season for investments, and so it is
with the merchant and tradesman.
Now is the seed-time-heavy and
choice stocks of goods are rolling out
into our stores, and as "quick sales
and small profits" is now the motto
of most of our mercantile friends,
ihe only true way to realize its bene?
fits, is to ativertiso liberally. Every
dollar spent in arJvert?Bin'g, is as seed
so'.ra in good ground-an investment
thatpays a botter par cen tage than any
other ventare the merchant makes.
Within our own knowledge there aro
striking illustrations of this fact; br?t
lest it might appear invidious, we
forbear to individualize. Such are
some of the. uses and benefits of the
newspaper; but they are not a tithe
of the number we could mention, did
our patience, or' that of the reader
permit
FREE SCHOOLS AT THE SOUTH.-We
clip the following paragraph from
ons of our Northern exchanges :
Tho American Freedmen's Union
Commission and its auxiliaries are
laboring with enlightened zeal to
open tho way for the introduction at
the South of the free school system
of the North. At the present time
they are especially anxious to secure
the co-operation of the freed people
'< in the support of the schools. A
conference of delegates from the va?
rious societies was lately held in this
city-Judge Bond, of Baltimore, in
the chair-to devise a plan for carry?
ing thiB objoct into effect. Tho result
arrived at is embodied in the follow?
ing resolutions:
1. Resolved, That the best interests
of the freed peojde require the per?
manent establishment of free schools
in tho South; that, a? in tho North?
ern free school system, tho people
should co-operato in their support;
and, therefore, that no uow schools
should be established, except where
co-operation can bc secured.
2. Resolved, That our teachers and
agents in the South should organize
the people into associations to raise
means to aid in the establishment and
support of their schools.
POLAND.-A correspondent of the
Pall Mall Gazette, writing from War?
saw, on the 5th instant, says:
"An important decision has been
arrived at by the authorities here and
at St. Petersburg. In order to de?
stroy as much as possible all histo?
rical recollections among the Poles,
it has been determined that Warsaw
shall cease to be the capital of Po?
land. The kingdom will be divided
into two districts, in which the chief
scats cf gover??i?uL will be Ivaiisch
and Lublin, Warsaw thus being re?
duced to the rank of a second-rate
provincial town. Arrangements are
already being made for the removal
of the principal Government officials
from Warsaw, and the rents of houses
have accordingly fallen considerably.
This summary measure is supposed
to be partly intended as a defiance to
France, which nation, since the Be
rezowski affair, has been the subject
of constant attacks in the Russian
press."
EQUAL TO THE PRIMITIVE APOSTLES.
Tho Louisville Courier, speaking of
a sermon preached in that city by
Bishop Pierce, of the Methodist
Episcopal Church, South, eulogizes
it as follows:
Tho Methodist Church South in
the morning was filled to overflow?
ing, ond hundreds went away who
could not even get standiug room.
Bishop Pierce preached. The primi?
tive apostles never preached better.
We do not believe it to be iu the
power of mortal man to do it. Said
an eminent lawyer of this city, and
a man of tho world: "I have heard
Clay, Prentiss, Marshall and Bascom,
but George F. Pierce is the greatest
orator of them all." The enthusi?
asm was tremendous. The sermon
gradually rose in grandeur and power,
until it reached a point where the
universal outburst of feeling seemed
imminent. It was directed to the
ministers. Said au old Presiding
Elder: "Well, none of the preachers
will locate after that, and some of
them will refuse to go to their ap?
pointments " An eminent member
of the conference said: "It has al?
ways been hitherto a question with
me as to which was the greatest ser?
mon I ever heard. It is no longer a
matter of doubt; the sermon of to?
day settled it."

MOVEMENTS TO TEST THE AMNESTY.
The Washington correspondent of
tho New York Tribune says:
Positive information has been re?
ceived hore, that in Alabama and
Virginia, where the lists of registra?
tion are being revised, under the Re?
construction Act, a number of rebels
who have been pardoned by the Pre?
sident's reoent amnesty proclamation,
have applied to have their names
registered. In Alabama the Boards
of Registration, by order of Gen.
Pope, have refused permission, and n
number oi these men in Montgome?
ry, Alabama, have taken the matter
before che courts, intending to test
the constitutionality of the Recon?
struction Act. This, of course,
opens up the whole matter again, and
may cause delay in the elections.
It is a curious foot, that news from
South America comes now by way of
England. Yankee enterprise has not
yet established a line of steamers
with South America ports, and the
British lines bring to London the
items whioh are conveyed here by
the Atlantic cabio.

Th? Wart -iNl-Cftf Ate?r^?i C? ra from
Uenontl N. IS. forrest.
To (?ie Editor of the JNete York Times:
A correspondent ot tho Times,
whose letter was published on the
26th instant, says :
"At the time of the capture of
Fort Pillow by the rebel General
Forrest, and the massacre of its en?
tire garrison, General (then Colonel)
Lawrence, was in command of F. rt
Columbus, a point on tho Mississippi
river above Fort Pillow. General
Forrest, flashed with his victory and
his murders, marched from Fort Pil?
low directly on Fort Columbas, noti?
fied Colonel Lawrence that the com?
mander and garrison of Fqrt Pillow
had been massacred, 1:1 foiiucd Inui
that he commanded 10,000 troops,
and knew that he (Lawrence) had
only 1,000, and ordered him to sur?
render in one hours' time, or he and
his command should share the fate
which had been visited on the garri?
son at Fort Pillow."
I have hitherto bo rae in silence
these outrageous assaults upon my
character as a mao and a soldier; but
a decent regard for my own reputa?
tion, and a sense of duty to the brave
gentlemen who fought under mo dur?
ing the late war, will not permit me
to remain silent any longer. I must,
therefore, ask you to be pleased to
allow me to say through the columns
of the Times, that tho charges made
against me by your correspondent
are utterly false, and that their falsi?
ty can be easily demonstrated by
proof, which is within easy reach.
Tho official report of the United
States officer commanding at Fort
Pillow, and the testimony reported
by the Congressional Investigating
Committee, of which vice-President
Wade was chairman, show that the
garrisou consisted of only about 580
officers and men. Other proofs,
which I can produce at any time,
show that I captured, nnd can ac?
count for, more than 300 of these
sixty-five of them, who were badly
wounded, having been delivered by
mo to the officer commanding n
United States gun-boat in tho vicinity
of the fort, and about 250 (an official
descriptive list of whom is now in
this city, in the possession of General
Thomas Jordan,) having been turned
over by me to General Polk, at De
mopolis, Alabama. Of these cap?
tured men, ninety were negro soldiers.
Nor were the rest, nf the garrison al]
killed; for many of them effected
their escape, while others we?
drowned in the attempt. It wil
thus be seen that the proportion oj
killed was not greater than is usua
in the case of so severe a fight, ac
companied by a desperate assault auc
defence.
These facts are koowa to tho Go
verameut of the United States, anc
acquit me, not only in the opinion o
the Presideot, Mr. .Stanton, nn<
Judge Holt, bat ia that of Congress
of any violatioa of the rules of civil
i zed warfare. Otherwise, I woul<
have been long ago arrested and t rici
upon that charge. For my own part
conscious of my innocence, and know
ing perfectly well that I havo alway
waged war with tho strictest regan
to the usages of civilized nations,
have never shunned any investigr
tion to which the Executive or Coe
gress might subject my military cou
duct.
As to the absurd charge that
marched agaiust Columbus with 10
000 men and demaaded its surrendei
with the threat that I would, ia th
oveut of refusal, "massacre" its ga:
risen, I have only to say that I uev<
was, during ?the war, withiu fort
miles of Columbus, after its evacui
tioa by the Confederates in 18G2; an
that the ouly troops which approacl
ed it at the time referred to, was
scouting party of less thau 100 mei
and that the official report of Gener
Lawrence himself utterly disprovi
your correspondeot's statements.
N. B. FORREST.
Caora IN THE PEE DEE SECTION.
A correspondent of the Charlestc
News writes:
"It is difficult to give a rehab
opiuioa as to the crops ia tho P(
Deo country. So far as my observ
tions extend, the corn crop appea
to be poor. There was not mut
plauted, as compared with the cn
before the war, and the cultivate
has been slovenly. The grain ero
although better thau last year, w
not bo suflicieot for tho country, ar
largo supplies will be required fro
abroad. The cotton crop is uadout
edly better ia the Pee Dee count
than it was last year, bnt it will n
turn ont what it promised some wee
ago. There hos beon too much ra
for cotton all through the season, ai
the rust is now blasting the pla
rapidly. This orop will stand b
treatment and disasters better thi
any other gro-jrp st the South; b
this year very late planting, hen
rains daring the entire season, ai
very imperfect onlture, will undoul
edly cut this production down mu
below general expectation. The
impressions, derived principally frc
observation, are confirmed by t
planters in the country."

CHEAP GAB AT LABT.-Messrs.
Smith. & McGowan, patentees, have
joBt received a patent for the manu?
facture of gas. This invention con?
sists in tho manufacture of gas from
coal and coal tar, every parti?le of tar
being converted into gas. By the
ordinary process of gos manufacture,
large quantities of coal tar is made,
which ia sold for. a trifle, or suffered
to run off around the gas-works.
This invention is to demonstrate that
coat tar is the very essence of the
coal, containing more gas than is nov
made from the coal itself. In fact,
by this invention coal is used more
for the making of tar than for mak?
ing gas, as no coal would be required,
if coal tar could be obtained in suffi?
cient, quantities. For instance, in
gas-works of a hundred retorts, they
are each filled say with three bushels
of coal every four boura; whereas by
this new process, these same retorts
would only require filling with coal
once iu every twenty-four hours, the
coal tar which is made being suffi?
cient to supply the requisite umonnt
of illuminating material. These gen?
tlemen claim that by improvement, a
superior quality of gas cnn be made
ut twenty-five per cent, of the present
cost.- Washington Republican.
HYDRAULIC STEAMERS.-Tho hy?
draulic propeller steamship has had
auothcr triul at Stokes' Bay, Eng?
land, with two Admiralty screw ves?
sels pitted ""jainst her. The Loudon
Tunes devotes nearly three columns
to the subject, giving a very minute
report of the trial, from which it ap?
pears that in six runs over the mea?
sured mil?, the gun-beat Water Witch
(hydraulic) obtained an average speed
of 9,223 knots with forty-one revolu?
tions of the turbine, against nn aver?
age of 9,267 by the screw boats, with
107.25 revolutions of the starboard
engines, and 108.2G of the port en?
gines. The Times says the hydraulic
machinery "worked perfectly and
noiselessly," without "even so much
as a warm bearing from the time of
its erection" in the hold of the Water
Witch. The Admiralty hos ordered
two other vessels fitted with the hy?
draulic propeller, to more fully test
its powers.
A SHEP SAVED AT SEA BY PUMPING
OIL OVERBOARD.-The marine tradi?
tion that vessels can be saved in a
Btorm at sea by pouring oil upon the
v.aler, has lately been verified-if the
tale is true-in the wonderful in?
stance of a vessel loaded with oil and
blubber, and voyaging from St.
John's, Newfoundland, to Bristol,
England. According to the story, in
a terrible storm the vessel was thrown
on her beam ends, tho sea ran high,
when Bomo ono suggested the oil
remedy, anda hogshead was broached
and pumped overboard. "Tho ef?
fect," says the narrative, "was mar?
vellous; around the ship the sea ap?
peared as though there was a calm,
and, in spite of a tremendous gale;
tho sea never broke on board for the
eight days the vessel lay to."

EXPENSIVE LITIGATION AND EXTEN?

suits of England. We have seen tho
formidable octavos of testimony
which grew out of tho controversy
of the Delaware and Hudson Canal
Company and the Pennsylvania Coal
Company, which has been going on
for a decado and more; and we no?
tice that the famous lierden-Spike
case, which has been in litigation for
sixteen years, was up before Justice
Nelson, at Cooperstown, a few days
since, the testimony in which is com?
prised in nine volumes, accompanied
by a volume of briefs. Had the
parties compromised, they would
have saved lawyers' fees, court ex?
penses and vexation of temper that
has, doubtless, shortened life.

Little Alice found out an ingenious
way of getting to bed in a hurry.
The crib in which she slept was so

she could easily spring in. "Mamma,"
said she to her mother one evening,
"Do you know how I get to bed
quick?" "No," was the reply.
"Well," said she. in great, glee, "I

Mr. Stanton called the "late lament?
ed" a gorilla. "Why," oried he,
"need we send to Africa for the go
rP't, when we (referring to the ar?
rival of Mr. Lincoln) have one in our
midst?"
In 1839, Mr. Forney styled Thad?
deus Stevens a "villain at heart."
Now, Mr. Stanton alludes to Lin?

Forney calls Stevens n pure- and

' 'MABTBB.'*-Some colored folks ob?
ject to using tbis word, thinking,

The great diotiohary-maker, Webster,
thus defines the word:.. "Master"-A.'

either men or business. A man who
own slaves is their master; he who
has servants is their master; be who
has apprentices is their master, or he
who has the government and direc?
tion of them. The man who super?
intends and directs any business, is
master or master workman. 'Nations

AN EDUCATIONAL HINT.-As the
most of our schools will be re-opened
during this and next week, we note a
hint that should not be lost on teach?
ers and parents. Ia a recent speech
on education, delivered by Sir John
Browning, before the British Asso?

tion should be paid at the publie
schools to reading, writing and arith?
metic. He stated thal when he was
Governor of Hung Kong, a highly,
connected young gentleman was sent
out to him for public employ mont,
bringing recommendations from very
influential quarters. A report having
shortly afterward readied him of the
gentleman's ignorance, he sent for
him and examined him as to his pro?

to spell the word candle, the highly
connected young gentleman spelled it

AN OWNER FOR STOLEN PROPERTY
WANTED.-A friend, says the South
era Opinion, writes us from Shawnee,
Johnson County, Kansas, asking in?
formation of a family named Bad
cliff, who, during the ww, resided in
or near Columbas, North Carolina.
The writer says a Yankee soldier in
Shawnee, who was with Sherman injpj
his raid through the South, has in
his possession a captured ring, and
claims to have bought the jewel from
the man who first captured it. The
ring is described as a very valuable
family relic, apparently of gold,
largo and heavy, intended for a gen?
tleman's fore-finger. On the inside
is engraved, "Mrs. Eliz. Radcliff,
died 21st February, 1800, aged 78
years and G months." On the out*
side, set in gold, is a lock of hair,
under glass plate, tho whole sur?
rounded by a circle of pearls. The
gentleman who seeks this informa?
tion and communicates these facts,
promises, upon receipt of the certi?
ficate of ownership, to purchase the
ring from its present possessor, and
forward it to the family, upon the
single condition that the receiver
shall pay express charges, he gener?
ously contributing the cost in aiding
the restoration of the jewel into the
rightful bauds.
Any person having knowledge of
the family inquired after, will please
communicate with the editor of the
Opinion, who holds the address of the
writer of the letter referred to. It
may be that Columbia, South Caro?
