If it be a correct definition, a de facto Government can never exist in Ireland Scotland, Cknada, or anyi of the British provinces. If it be true that the Confederate Government was never a de facto Government because ‘it never held the na tional capital,’ then the fleeing Parliahient . -of a 'dethrdned KIng might easily prevent the formation of a defacto Government by passing a law removing the capital; and. then, also, the Confederate Government would have been :->a defaito Government.!! Eably had oniji^an- tured Y¥ashiiigton, as-he * coild’- ehsiiy have done*^g!864, or if BeaoreqaeiS and John son had taken it after the battles in July, 1861. If the Confederate Government was not a de facto Government because it ‘never asserted any authority to represent the nation,' then we are to lose, because instead ,of con fining ourselves to our own States, we did not also assert the right to govern the Northern States. If our rulers had only captured Washington and claimed to be the real Gov ernment of the United States, instead of the Confederate States, then the Confederate Government would have been a Government de facto, and we should be entitled to the protection of the United States Government against any suit or claim of any sort that might be brought against ns for having yield ed obedience to that de facto Government. Jlr. Chase says “it cannot be maintained that acts against the King committed in obe dience to a usurper temporarily in possession "of a part of the kingdom would not be trea son in England.”’ We suppose the “catch” in this point is the word “usurper.”. But, then, the .unsuccessful man was always, in British law, the usurper. Henry VIL was a usurper. Richard m. was a usurper. Either the ..“good'Elizabeth” or one of the children of Edward was the rightful heir. Yet Rich ard held part of England, and Henry anoth er part before the battle of jBosworth field. Were not the, adherents of ’Richard'held to be.guiltless of treason after Henry.took the crown ? Was not Richard merely temporari ly in possession of a part of the kingdom ? Practically . .the great mass of the people of England were always held to be innocent of crime, no matter to what King “temporarily in possession” they yielded obedience. The judges of Charles II. respected the decisions made by those of that most notorious or fa mous-of usurpers. Oliver Cromwell. The amount of Mr. Chase’s definition is that a de facto Government can never exist in this country. For if it succeed, it is at once a de jure Government; .and if it fail, it has never been even a. cie/acfft ‘Government In a word, he does away with de facto Govem- ments altogether On‘this continent, explodes them as unsubstantial things, and proves that their existence within the limits of this immense ocean-bound republic is impossible. They may flourish in little England; but they cannot even be bom in colossal America. We respectfully submit that the definition is morally and legally wrong. The people of these Confederate States are as clearly en- titled.to the protection accorded "to “people who have yielded obedience to a de facto Government as any people that ever lived. Cessante ratione, cessat ipsfi. et ■ lex. We re verse the maxim, and say that the reason ex isting the law also exists. We are shrely en titled to all the protection ever accorded to people who were held blameless for obeying n powerful Government, We imagine that the history of the world might he searched in vain for a previous instance in winch .the reason of the policy of recognizing the acts of d« facto Governments could with greater truth be urged in favor of the supposed de linquents.” ' Foreign Immigration.—But few persons have an adequate idea* of the number of im migrants annually arriving in the United States, or of the amount of w,ealth.they bring with-them. Statisticians estimate the num ber of immigrants from European States to this country since 1790 at six millions five hundred thousand,; and that 1 heir descend ants to-day number folly twenty millions, or about one-half - of the entire population. Prom 1829 to 1830 the number of foreigners landed on our ghores was 244,490; from 1830 to 1840, 552;000; from 1840 to 1850, 1,588,300; from 1850 to 1860, 2,707,624. The annual average of immigratiqp since I860 is pnt down by Mr. Banks at 350,000, and actual investi- 'gationnas proved that each,emigrant, man, woman, and child, represents from eighty to one hundred dollars. Thus, in the a§gre- gate, nearly $30,000,000 in gold is added to the money resources of the country annually by immigration alone. A cotemporary says: ‘•But we mast look farther than the money value of the immigrant, and consider his pro ductive capacity .” Estimating his * labor at five hundred dollars a year, at this rate onr annual immigration would add one hundred »nd‘fifly millionB.. a year to.the cash yaiue of flaeconntijyii £ ~ J ' 1 ** r< DEMOCRATIC VICTORY . The newly elected Democratic Mayor and Board of Aldermen of Augusta were inaugu- rated On Thursday, the oath being adminis tered by Hon. John C. Sneed, in the presence of a large soncourse of citizens who thronged the Halt" and who dembnstfiited their joy at the restoration of the city government once more into the hands ’-of honest citizens of their choice by enthusiastic applause. Mayor Russell, in assuming his official i seat, made a most sensible and appropriate address, which was received with marked approbation hy tiio urmfr in AmiftwiffTfiifflBiiiiihfijnT- called for addressed his fellow citizens, con gratulating themfqpi (the; fh&^ithat their city government will now he controlled by “pure, .orable men.” of yesterday thus des cribes the celebration of Thursday mght Theeditorflays-7 , The gratification .of our .citizens over the election for Mayor and Members of Council, culminated ■ last night in a general - celebra tion. Our streets were brilliantly illuminated with bon-fires, while the very air seemed on ■fire with .beautifulpyrotechhic displays: The - enjoyment was participated in by old and . young,' making tbe city almost “a jubelee of leasts,” and showing how deep was the joy of our people for their release from the terri ble misrule’which, like a “tyrant grim and fearful in hie rage” up to Wednesday lash held them in bondage. The feature of the oc casion, however, was the mock funeral of the late “Mayor;” This was participated in by an immehse' crowd, who, with torched tin pans, trumpets and other fearfully discordant instruments, marched in solemn array behind a' coffin borne upon the shoulders of some ten pall bearers, who were biack, or appeared to be; all wore the deepest habiliments of wbe, and the glare of their torches reminded one of night bnrials Bometimea^witnessed in the glades of Florida and the low lands of Louisiana. There were appropriate and exceedingly expressive banners and signs, bearing the date and place of his death, the manner and cause thereof, and one we noticed extended an earnest in vitation to all to attend the funeral. The cortege, preceded by outriders, paraded through, the principal streets to the mnsic of their various instruments, which produced the most “discordant harmony" we have over heard, and finally proceeded to the bridge, where, with appropriate ceremonies and military salutes, the coffin was cast into the river. The march to the bridge was to the tune of the “Dead iMarch,” and the cortege returned with enlivening strains and soon disbanded. Want of time and space forbid farther details of the most complete political burial that has ever, been witnessed in this or any other city. We -were exceed ingly pleased at tbe good feeling manifested byall, and nothing occurred during the night, as far as we are informed, to mar its events. The enjoyment of the occasion was happily concluded by a brilliant reception at the Masonic Hall, where large numbers regaled themselves with many good things, and.in the matter of food and drink, furnished through the generosity of our municipal offi cers. Thus ends the life of an illegal govern ment and commences that-of law and order. In common with the white people of the State, we heartily sympathize with our Au gusta friends in their deliverance from Radical rule. a c; A beautiful woman is to be sold at auction i n this city.

IN AU- • ** >' SPECIE -PAYMENTS, The New York Commercial is discussing, with the Times, the feasibility of resuming specie payments. The Times, as a step to that end, is in favor of. the government- em ploying its gold in the purchase of green backs. The Commercial, on the contrary, thinks any attempt to approach resumption bythat means would inevitably be abandoned, from its ruinous consequences and. tbe force of pnblic protest: y With the business of the-country every year expanding and requiring a freer circula tion, and with no elasticity in our currency system, (the Commercial thinks), contraction is becoming more and more impracticable. With the present ‘ amount of circulation, we are subject to small panics every spring and fall, causing a damaging recoil in business; and if that specific^ form of circulation which is the basis of our banking operations were to he farther curtailed, the work of recupera tion would he thrown back, the country would be disheartened, and the .preparation for resumption would be indefinately post poned.” ir The New York Post, on the same subject, expresses itself opposed to all propositions looking to sudden resumption—or resump- - tion, say, on a certain fixed day. The Post Bays: -“This would give a violent shock to all business; it would suspend everything like regular trade until the . result of .the experi- "ment could be known; .and wild fluctuations in apeculative prices, meanwhile!; would draw into gambling vast amounts of capital thus left idle. » Whether the experiment should sncceed or fail, it would ruin thousands; for no fault of their own.” That some preparation should be made for specie payments beforehand, there can hardly .be a doubt. Economy, pnblic and private and productive industry, |are the practical steps thereto. These, with good crops, cot ton and cereals, ought, to turn the exchanges in onr favor, and then resumption easy and can be* maintained. First, there must be the.will—then there will be the way.

Such a prepara tion,'the^ Baid, had fong been wanted by the profes sion, as no reliance could be placed on the ordinary liquors of commerce^ all of which were more or less adulterated, and therefore unfit for medical purposes. The peculiar' excelence and strength of the oii of jpni- per, which formed oneof the principle ingredienU of the Schnapps, together witlran unalloyed character of the alcoholic element, give it, in the estimation of the faculty, a marked superiority over every other diffusive stimulant as a diuretic tonic and; restorative. These satisfactory credentials 'from professional men of the highest rank were published in a con densed form, and enclosed with each bottle of the Schnapps, as one of the guarantees of its genuine ness. Other precautions against fraud were also ' adopted; a patant was obtained for the article, the lable wascopywrighted, a foe simile of the proprietor’s autograph signature was attached to each lable and cover, his name and that of the preparation were em bossed on the bottles, and the corks were sealed with his private seaL No article had ever been sold in this bouhtry under the naipe' of Schnapps prior to the in troduction of Wolfe's Schiedam Aromatic 'Sqhnapps, in 1851; and the lible was deposited^ as his trade mark, in the United 8tateSDistric^Court‘ for the Southern ' District of New York, during that year.' J It might be supposed by persons unacquainted with fiie. daring character of the pirates, who prey uppn the reputation of honorable,merchants by vending delete rious trash under fiieir,name, that the protections so careftilly thrown around these Schnapps wuuld have precludedithe introductions and sale of counterfeits. They seem, however^ only to have stimulated the rapacity of impostors. * The trade mark of the proprie tor been stolen; the indorsement which his Schie dam Aromatic Schnapps alone'received from the medi cal profession has been claimed by mendacious hum bugs; his labels and bottles have been imitated, bis ad vertisements paraphrased, ‘ hia circular?'copied, and worse than all, dishonorable retailers, after disposing of the genuine contents of his bottles, have filled'them up with common gin, the most deleterious of all liquora, and thus made his name and brand a cover for poison. * - The public, the medical profession and the sick, for whom fiie Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps is prescribed aa a remedy, arc equally interested with the proprie tor in the. detection and suppression of these nefari ous practices. The genuine article, manufactured at the establishment of the undersigned, in Schiedam, Holland, is distilled from a barley of the finest quality, and flavored with an essential extract of the berry of the Italian juniper, of unequalled purity. By a process unknown in the preparation of any other liquor, it is freedfebto every acrimonious and corrosive element. Complaints have been received from the leading physicians and families in the Southern Slates of the sale of cheap imitations of (he Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps in those markets; and travellers, who are in the habit of using it as an antidote to the baneful In-, fluence of unwholesome river water, testify that cheap gin, put .up in Schiedam bottles, is frequently palmed off upon the unwary. The agents of the undersigned have been requested to institute inquiries on tbe sub ject, and to forward to him the names of such parties as they may ascertain to be engaged in the atrocious system of deception. In conclusion; the undersigned would say that he has produced, front under the hands of the most distinguished men of science in America proofs unanswerable of the pmity and medicinal ex cellence of the Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps; that he has expended many thousand dollars in surrounding it with guarantees and safeguards, which he designed should protect the public and himself against fradulent imitations; that he has shown it to be the only liquor in the world that can be uniformly depended upon as unadulterated; that he has challenged investigation, analysis, comparison, and experiment in all its forms; and from every ordeal the preparation which bears his name, seal and trade mark, has cozne off triumphant. He th erf ore feels it a duty he owes to his fellow-citizens generally, to the medical profession and the sick, to denounce and expose the charlatans who counterfeit these evidences of identity, and he calls npon the press and the public, to aid him in his efforts to remedy so great an evil. The following letters and certificates from the leading physicians and chemists of this city will prove to the reader that all goods sold by the undersigned are all they are represented to be. ^ UDOLPHO WOLFE.
