A Card from Cnpt. de Reviere.
Capt. H. A. de Keviere has called on
ns and furnished the following response
to a statement which was transferred
to the Courier from the Augusta Loemrg
[Charleston Courier, 30/A instant.
Charleston. May 28, 1859.
Capt. H. A. de lieviere has never
boarded in Aiken, as the books of the
hotel show. He was never in the place
at all but twice, and only a few hours
each time, coming from Savaunah to
Augusta by railroad. He was in Savan
nah boarding at the Pulaski as late a«
the 6th of May ; then came to Charles
ton by steamer Gordon, and boarded at
the Mills House up to the 20th of May ;
went then back to Savannah and boar
ded at the Marshal Hotel up to the
26th; came l»ck on the 27t'n to Char
leston at the Mills House, where he now
is. These facts can be ascertained by
the books of the various Hotels. Cap
tain de Reviere most emphatically de
nies knowing, with any degree of inti
macy, any Ladies responding to the de
scription given in the Augusta article,
which he declares a fabrication of the
basest character, inasmuch as it attacks
the reputation of Ladies with whom he
never had any social intercourse.
He would not take any notice of any
such contemptible libel, were it only to
concern himself, but if tlm parties in
sulted would choose, he will be ready
to punish the calumniator either by
law or personal chastisement at their
° Ptl ° n ' H. A. de REVIERE.
We trust we shall be pardoned for
presenting an unvarnished statement ]
of the exploits of “ Captain H. A. de
Reviere,” during his late tour South, 1
not so much in response to the above
warlike proclamation, as to illustrate
the achi vements of shameless impudence
and sublimated scoundrelism.
The illustrious Captain did, board at
Aiken several days, under the cowardly
disguise of an assumed name, “as the
hook t will show. 1 ’ At one place he wrote
it Derussv ; at another, de Rcssky. —
How he could pass through Aiken, in
“ coming from Augusta by railroad,”
it about as surprising as his other übi
quitous exploits.
It was while in Savannah, about the
6th inst., that we first hear of his gal
lant attention to the ladies whom he
pretends not to know. From Savannah
he went to Charfeston, and here we be
lieve the ladies were induced ro leave
their reputuble escort, and fell into his
meshes. He sneaked on to the train
.after them, on the 20th inst., and
claimed that thoy were under his pro
tection, after suffering them to buy
their own tickets. He even desired the
Conductor to open a vacant car for
them, alleging that they were sick. He
took rooms for them at Aiken, under
v the pretense that they were relatives,
AOd passed as “Cousin Harry,” during
bis stay. He was there from Friday
the 20th until Wednesday, the 26th,
which period he falsely claims to have
passed in Savannah. During his stay,
he was almost constantly with them,
exciting the attention and disgust of
the whole village ; and yet the puppy
says he never “ had any social inter
course with them.” We would like to
know what kind of intercourse he con
sidered it.
We cannot comprehend his logi: when
he says that our article is a fabrication
‘‘inasmuch as it attacks the reputation
of ladies with whom he has never had
any social intercourse ” He probably
means that it is slander to censure a
woman who has never been honored by
his disgusting familiarities.
He returned from Savannah on the
27th, as he avers, and stopped again at
| Aiken, as he does not aver. Finding
W that the Dispatch was about to expose
his infamous conduct, he suddenly left
for Charleston, in too much of a hurry
to get his wet linen from the laundress.
Reaching Charleston he sent to the la
dies the melancholy intelligence that
he found dispatches from his reg
iment awaiting his arrival, summoning
him to France, and after issuing the
above flaming bulletin, we are informed
that he left for New York by the first
steamer, under a new disguise.
We do not wish to gratify the vanity
of this cowardly braggart by adding to
his notoriety, or to inflict a wanton
wound upon his misguided companions
in folly ; but there is a warning end a
lesson in their conduct to which*we
would direct attention. American la
dies are becoming too partial for showy
adventurers. A light regard for the
restraints of propriety, and a Frency
fondness for flirtation and display, are
easting a blighting mildew over the
fashionable circles, and desolating many !
a domestic hearthstone. The two ladies j
who have been partners in the intrigue J
with this worthless roue, are reported to i
belong to respectable society in Bos
ion. They are but the ultra types of a
large class who figure in the gay circles
of our towns and cities, who prefer the
gaze of a vulgar crowd, or the flatter - \
jug attention of gay deceivers to the j
quiet enjoyments and sober duties of \
the fireside. Where we see parties for
getting their own self-respect, unmind-
ful of the common proprieties of life,
we do not indend to lie deterred
by threats, or fear of accountabili
ty, or reproof of the prudish, or
by any other influence, from expos
ing them to the gaze of the public.—
We have witheld the names of the la
dies involved in this affair, in response
to their earnest entreaties ; and we ad
vise them to hasten hack to their dis
honored Boston friends and sin no
more. Reviere can go to the French
army, to Salt Lake, or “the way Ward’s
ducks went,” as he pleases.
Late Fusli ton.
A New Orleans exchange paper says
that Napoleon 111 is, as nearly as possi
ble, aping Napoleon I in everything.—
The last wrinkle in the imitation way is
the adoption of the half-naked, and
no-necked, drapery style of seminudity
of costume by the ladies of the impe
rial court. Eugenie favored the plan
because she was getting obese and look
ed bunchy with high-necked dresses,
besides having fine shoulders and bust,
and she took the lead in inaugurating
the fashion by coming out in a dress
which had no sleeves, the upper edge of
the waist passing under the arras and
so across back and breast. Thus very
little material is wasted in needless su
perfluity of covering for the upper part
of tlio person. This style is calculated
to prove an advantage in one contingen
cy, for if Austria should should be too
much for France, and the invaders
should reach Paris, the patriotic and de
spairing ladies of the empire, scorning
to survive its fall, would not find it nec
essary “to bare their bosoms to the wea
pons of the enemy,” their milliners
having saved them the trouble. We re
mark that this fashion, though not in
its extreme, has already traveled across
the water to Georgia. In such weather,
it looks cool—“decidedly cool.”

The Native Africans.
It will be remembered that some two
hundred re-captured Africans were sent j
from this country some time last Sum- ;
mer, in the United States steam frigate
Niagara, and that our Government ap
pointed the Rev. John Seys to go out as
the agent to superintend these poor
creatures after their arrival in Africa.—
On the 24th of January last, Mr. Seys
thus writes from Cape Palmas,to a friend 1
in St. Louis:—
After spending nearly three weeks at
Monrovia, we left again with our gal- |
lant 6liip, the M. C. Stevens, for the lee- !
ward counties. At first I had no idea '
of so soon coming down the coast, but;
after some correspondence between the
President of Liberia and Dr. Dennis, the j
agent of the American Colonization So j
ciety, it waR determined to distribute
the liberated Africans in the different j
counties, and at once to send those in- -
tended for the leeward by the ship. As
I feel a very deep interest in these poor
orphans, torn away, as they have been,
from parents, relatives, home and
friends, I proposed to accompany them
and 6ee them taken care of, and put
into the possession of the Society’s
agents at the different points. My ofler
was most readily accepted, and on the
11th we left Monrovia, with a large
number of Liberians, visiting their
friends down the coast, and eighty five
of the liberated Congoes. selected from
the whole number by 3dr. Dennis and
Dr. Roberts with care and prudence.
We landed thirty at Grand Baisa,
thirty more at Sinoe, aud twenty five
here, and nothing can exceed their joy
and gladness when put into comforta
ble quarters. They are told they are
now at home, and willl be fed, clothed,
educated, and treated kindly, and j
taught to fear and serve the great God. 1
Fed! clothed!! educated!!! Were
we not told by some who voted for the
appropriation to send these Africans ;
back, that it was not intended to edu- j
cate them ? Uncle Sam had better bs j

children—and Georgia politicians would

The Cotton and Corn Crops. —We
have been shown several stalks of cot
ton from the plantations of Col. R. H.
Berry and Gen. Butler, containing
squares and blooms, all of this year’s
planting. In these instances blossoms
were seen on the 20th and 23d respec
tively. This is not, however, a criteri
on by which to judge of the crop gen- i
erally. The stands are good, the weed
healthy and the prospect very flattering
but in many respects the season has not ,
been favorable and. as a consequence j
cotton is rather uackward. The in-!
stances in which blooms are found are ;
exceptions.
The corn crop, as a general thing, is
promising. With suitable weather for j
a few weeks longer, an abundant '
i harvest will be realized.— Tallahassee

1 Department Hole* of Granting Pass
port*.
Washington, May 25.—As citizens of
the United States visiting foreign coun
* tries are liable to serious inconvenience
. if unpiovided with authentic proof of
their national character, their best safe
guard is a passport from the State De
partment, certifying the bearer to be a
2 citizen of the United States. Passports
- are issued gratuitously upon application
supported by proof of citizenship. This
proof need be transmitted but once. On
5 all subsequent occasions, a simple refer
-1 ence to it, and to the period when it
s was presented, will be sufficient.
When the applicant is a native citi
zen of the United States, lie must trans
mit an affidavit of this fact, signed
5 by him, stating his ago and place of
birth, and sworn to by himself and one
other citizen of the United States named
; therein, to whom he is personally known
and to the best of his knowledge and
belief the declaration made by him is
true. This affidavit must be attested by
a Notary Public, under his signature and
i seal of office. When there is no Notary
ry in the place, the affidavit may be
made before a Justice of the Peace, or
other officer authorized to administer
oaths.
‘ If the applicant be a naturalized citi
i zen, his certificate of naturalization
i must be transmitted for inspection. It
, will be returned with the passport. The
widow or the children of a naturalized
citizen must transmit the certificate of
the naturalization of the husband or the
t father, stating under oath that they are
[ sudh widow or children.
The application should be accompa
nied by a description of the person,
’ stating the following particulars, viz:
* Age, years; stature, feet,
inches, English measuie ; forehead, ;
r eyes, —; nose, —; mouth, —; chin, —;
’ hair, —; complexion, —; face, —.
When the applicant is to be accom
panied by his wife, children or servants,
* or by females under his protection, it
will be sufficient to state the name and
i ages of such persons, aud their relation
ship to the applicant.
* Pei sons who leave this country ex
pecting to obtain passports while
abroad, from the Diplomatic or Consu
sular Agents of the United States, are
liable to disappointment, inasmuch as
jit is the duty of those agents not to
grant documents of this character ex
cept to persons who are certainly known
to be entitled to them : and it is some
times difficult, if nbt impracticable, to
procure proof of this fact in a foreign
country.
Certificates of citizenship, or passports
. issued by State authorities, or by judi
cial or municipal functionaries of the
United States, are not recognized by
the officers of foreign goverments ; and
!by the 23d section of the act of Con
jgress, approved on the 18th of August
I last, it is made penal for such authori
; ties and functionaries to issue such
' passports.

A Judge in a Dilemma.—An’awkward
j affair, which once occurred to ope of the
i judges ou the Western Circuit has been
! the subject of much mirth. It appears
that the pious judicial, having finished
his labors, and having cast off his fo
rensic wig at his lodgings, had retired
1 into the next room to wait for his broth
jer judge, whom lie was about to accom
' pauy to some of the local aristocracy to
j dinner. The female servant of the
1 house had entered the bedchamber by
a side door, and not knowing the judge
was in the next room, in a frolic array
led herself in the judge’s wig. Just at
the moment when the fair Mopsy was
admiring herself in the looking giars,
1 the judge unexpectedly entered the
jroom, and poor Mopsy, catching a sight
the stern countenance looking over
; her shoulder in the glass, was so alarm
ed that she fainted, and would have fal
, 'len to the ground if the learned judge,
' impelled by humanity had not caught
jher in his arms. At this critical mo
jment his brother judge arrived, and
opening the dressing-room door, with a
view to seeing if he was ready, discov
jered his learned brother with the faint
ing maid in his arms. Not wishing to
interrupt what he thought to be an
amour, he quickly attempted to with
draw, when his brother judge vocifera
ted, “For Heaven's sake, stop and hear
this matter explained.” “Never mind,
my dear brother, the matter explains
itself,” and he left his learned brother
to recover the fainting maid as he
i could.”— “Anecdotes of the Bench and the
I Bar .”
American Journalism. —We believe,
says the New Y'ork Tribune, there are
now printed within the limits of our
Union not less than four thousand news
papers, at least file hundred of them dai
ly, and five hundred semi-weekly. Their
: average circulation we estimate at two
i thousand each for the dailies, twenty
.five hundred for the semi weeklies, and
Jfifteen hundred for the weeklies, ma
rking a total circulation in this country
t of more than four hundred milllions of
j newspaper sheet per annum. Yet in
1813—less than half a century ago—the
‘ total circulation of newspapers in this
- jeountry was estimated by Isaiah Thomas
in his History of Printing, at a little
; more than twenty millions of sheets per
i annum. At that tune there were 359
;; newspapers, of which 57 only were daily

century.

Seth W. Fowls—Sir : Yeu are at liberty to use
tne following statement for the benefit ot the af
flietod ;
I was attacked with the Liver Complaint,
which apparently brought me to the brink ol
the grave. During my sickness I was attended
by three physicians in our place, but received
commended for sucb complaints, but they af
forded tne no relief. As a last resort, I was
persuaded to try Wislar’t Balsam of Wild
Cherry, and by using lour bottles I was restored
to better health than 1 have enjoyed before for
ten years. This statement may be relied upon
as strictly true. Bktskt Pbrrin .
The above certificate was given in the pre
sence of Dr. A. Strong, ol Honesdale, wuois well
known in his vicinity as a successful practitioner.
