Improvement in Soap. —The wife of an Ameri

We published, y esterday, a letter from Judge
O’Neale, on the difficulties which have occurred in
the College; and below we insert a communication
to the Charleston Sf-a/iJarJ, as a continuation ol
the same subject
Columbia, March 3, 1536.
Mtisrs. Editors: Seeing some mention made in
your paper of the recent disturbances in the South
Carolina College, I had thought it well, perhaps,
to say a word or two upon the subject. Judge
O’Neale has published a letter in reference to this
matter, and his account of affairs at Columbia ter
minated on Thursday morning; since that time
quiet lias prevailed in the town, but at College the
dissatisfaction of ,he students with tho removal of
the arms, and with the Faculty for enforcing dis
cipline, lias brought about a temporary suspension
oi College exercises. On Thursday evening the
disposition to rebel, unless the Trustees returned
the anus to the College Cadets, was very general.
The few who opposed it gained time by sending
a committee down to the Governor, asking the re
storation of the arms. The Governor came up and
adJres-.ed the students on Saturday, but a small
uiajt/nt. litre vn'll dissatisfied and dotarmined to
go home. In order to induce more to join them,
they cocluded to wait until the Faculty should have
i hair regular meeting on Monday and, decide on
tit*? punishment ot the offenders. The excitement
continuing so long, and exaggerated rumors being
scattered everywhere in the State, a large number
of parents, by letter or by telegraph, instructed
iheir sons to withdraw from College.
The President, on Monday, decided to permit
others to withdraw who iiad not had anopportum
o' of consulting their parents, so that they should
remain uncommitted by the action of the rebel
lious. On Tuesday morning, when the Facultv
suspended the principal actors in the disturbances,
only thirty or forty retain -d their connection with
the College. These were, for the most part, the
particular friends of the suspended students, who
were determined to stand by them ; but their num
ber was so small that they declined acting, for the
present, and await the re-assembling of the stu-
J -nta to carry out their purposes.
It is hoped and believed when the College is
again opened, that the majority, having had time
for reflection, and an opportunity of conferring
with their parents and friends, will not oppose the
action of the Trustees or the Facultv. ‘it is said
that nearly every one approves in his'heart of the
discipline enforced by the Faculty, and were it not
that some think themselves bound bv a resolution,
passed at a College meeting, “to strike when anv
one was struck,” there would be no chance for
further trouble. N’o one but the students had the
slightest belief that this resolution binds them to
rebel. They did not intend this moaning when it
was passed, and although it will bear that con
struction, it does not imply or require a rebellion.
Should the Faculty be supported by the majori
ty when they return, and then enforce strict and
proper discipline, night and day, in the rooms and
out, order may yet be restored."

St now N'othingism and Anti-Masonry.
Did you ever examine these questions, if not you
will probably be surprised at their resemblance.
But a few years since, and, according to the oppo
nents of Democracy, Masons were to bo dreaded.
They were undermining the fabric of our Govern
ment. They were secret. They had obligations
te each other, if anti-Masons were to ho believed
of such a character that they would shield each
other from the consequences of crime. Terrible
stories were told of their doings and secret machi
nations, till tiie temple which Washington trod was
by many believed to he a den of murderers, and a
political party was raised to exclude Masons from
office. Now, the tune is ehauged. and it is foreign
ers and Catholics who are thus assailed, and
strange as it mav appear, and it will appear strange
to any one who is familiar with the universality of
Masonry, there are Masons in the ranks of the
Know Nothings aiding them in disseminating
against others, the very slanders they pronounced
false when applied to themselves. Does it not re
mind you of the Puritans, who lied from religious
persecution and themselves persecuted Quakers,
Ac., on account of their religion? Democracy
stands upou the principles of eipial rights to ail
citizens, exclusive favors to none, and in this sign
she conquers Know N’othingism like anti-Masonrv.

A High “ Sell. A writer in the Buffalo
Republic gives the following interesting reminis
cence :
“In IS3B I came to Rochester, and was there
when that sublime farce was enacted oil Mount ■
Hope. A wag at Mount Morris found a quantity
of bear bones, which he palmed off as the bones
of Col. James Boyd and company, of Revolution
ary celebrity. The military took it up, and com
pleted the humbug. A pompous funeral was
planned, and Governor Seward invited to deliver
the funeral address. The cheat was discovered by
some of the Rochester faculty a dav or two before
its consummation, but such was their fear of those
military mobocrats that they kept the secret to
themselves. Never had poor Bruin such a pom- :
pous tun era l . It is supposed that seven thousand
persons followed m the procession. Gov. Seward
was particularly eloquent on this farcical occasion
“Fellow citizens,” said he in his exordium, “there
is a history contained in the mouldering bones dc-
Eosited in "that urn.” He was right. There was a i
istory. Not of battle, blood, and Indian massa
cre, but of devastated cornfields, murdered pork
ers, and untilial cubs : a theme as fruitful and di
versified. if not as spirit-stiriug and interesting,
“ In a few days the secret leaked out —the joke
was too good to keep, editors wrangled, doctors
quarrelled, the military swore, but they had no re
dress, they had been most unmercifully sold, and
to this day you cannot touch an inhabitant of Ro
chester in a more tender place than to ask him it
he made one of the bear procession to Mount Hope,
or if he was particularly edified with Gov. Seward’s
pration over Bruin’s sacred remsius.”
From the Washington Globe.
The Peace Negotiations.
The question that now has precedence in Europe ;
over all other questions and matters—even the re- I
lations between England and this country—is i
whether peace will be made or not. The general j
impression seems to be that it will. Many wish 1
it who sav they do, and mariv wish it who'do not
say so. These are mostly the Russians, the Eng- :
li-h, and the French, who are all manifestly tired
of it, hut who are all, from policy, obliged to play
a game of brag, and to affect a much greater alac
rity for carrying on the war than they feel. The '•
truth is, all the parties to the conflict have been
disappointed. Bussia believed that she would 1
have repelled her assailants at every point, and bv
mesmerizing or intimidating Austria, or by prom- 1
lsing to divide the spoils with her, that she might
before now have torn down the crescent in Con
stantinople, and hare planted the cross in its place
This has been, on the part of Bussia, a sort of po-' !
htico-rehgious war, and the Emperors Nicholas !
and Alexander, in all their manifestoes and pro
clamations, have given religion a prominent place.
T. ue first generally' introduced a quotation from »
the Scriptures, quoting it in Latin, to show at once j
ins learning, we suppose, and his transcendental !
piety. But in the game of humbug the Allies !
were not much behind him. The Turk is fanatical, I
and displayed in the beginning of the war a good j
deal of fanaticism, or perhaps it ought to he called
enthusiasm. Be it what it may. however, it has
perceptibility cooled, and although the belief that
God is great, and that Mohammed is his prophet,
is as strong and as ineradicable in the Ottoman
heart as ever, rot the calamities of the war, which
h ive been great and overwhelming, have a good
deal damped the ardor and broken the spirits of
the degenerate sons of those who stormed and
captured Constantinople four hundred y ears ago.
The old prophecy—undoubtedly old—-that the
Turkish empire would last but four hundred years
in Europe, has had a depressing effect, for the j
Mussulmans are fatalists us well as fanatics, and
believe that events are to take place as God wills
they' shall, and thut human agencies and human
efforts are null and of no avail when u thing is
predestinated to take place. And they are partly
right, but by carrying the doctrine to extreme's
they get discouraged, and finally are ready to give
up in despair. This prophecy has been believed
by many Turks to he u true one, and they believed
that at the expiration of the four centuries, two or
I three years ago, their empire would come to an t
•nd in Europe, and that the Bussians would be j
. their successors. And it is singular enough that, |
substantially', the Turkish ascendency did cease, j
for since the war the French and English have j
been masters at Constantinople, and are likely to ;
1 continue to be so, unless they should quarrel about 1
i an possession and pre-eminence. The Sultan, who is j
! honest, well-meaning man, and who finds himself
J between the Devil and the deep sea, as Cuddie
i Headrigg said about Graham and the Covenantors
j -the Allies on one hand, and tlio Russians on the
! other—is but little more a sovereign at Constanti
| nople, than he is at London or Paris. This he
knows, and the Allies take cure to lot him know it;
and the iron seems to have entered his soul, for he
does nothing and proposes bur little that has not
first had the sanction of his defenders and dicta
tors, and appears to have sunk, first into inactivity,
: and at last into apathy. We wish him better luck
hereafter, and a delivery from all his troubles.
Peace negotiations were to commence at Paris
about the last of February. There will be present
‘ eleven plenipotentiaries, England, France, Russia,
Yustria and Turkey being eacli represented by
wo, and Sardinia by one—half a one or none
would do just as well, for his Sardinian majesty is
but a satellite—rather a small one, too -of England 1
and France, who intend to have everything their
' own way; and the Turkish Plenipotentiaries are i
supernumeraries also, being admitted for form’s
sake, as Louis Napoleon and the British Govtrn
nent are willing to pay the Sultan the compliment
f letting it seem that he has something to say
‘bout the peace that is to be much talked about,
‘whether concluded or not concluded. France and
England have determined to exclude Prussia, it
( is said, from any participation in the negotiations,
<s her Plenipotentiaries, if siie had anv, would, of
ourse, side with the Russian on all important
: questions. Much will depend upon the Austrian
. diplomatists, who would like to vote upon both
sides if it were possible to do so, for the* Cabinet
t Vienna would play to the last th game of fust
and loose it has be ,-n playing for the last two years,
if it could. But the time has come that it must
-how its cards, and they wouid probably be Rns
. iun, if predilection, and not policy, was to be its
rule of action. Os course, the Austrian Plenipo
’entiaries must support the Austrian ultimafflm :
but there will be so much margin for construction,
ind definition, and shuffling, and dodging, that no
idea can be formed at present what will, or will
. not be done. It is not certain at all that peace will
be made, unless the Czar has made up his mind to
get rid of the war upon almost any terms. A peace
upon the basis of an ultimatum sanctioned by him,
will he a pregnant condemnation of his father’s
polievin entering into the war; and, what is more*
' it wifi be in the taco and in the teeth of his own
declaration and manifesto promulgated a few days
after the death of Nicholas, in which he said he
would carry out his father’s ami his predecessor’s
policy, let whatwould come, and that the honor
aid the prest'ge of Russia should remain intact and
inviolate in his keeping. But if he yields all that
,s demanded him, he has not done what he said
he would do. and what his subjects believed he
, would do. The questions of the'Black Sea and the
: ession of a part of Bessarabia will present great
lift! .‘ulties To make Turkey perfectly secure,
I -he Russian ascendency must cease in that sen,
and a good deal of that province (Bessarabia
mist he ceded to Turkey. Is Alexander prepared
•o make these concessions? Two months ago we
did not think he was, and know not now wlrnt to
’Link. He says lie will cede no territory hut
what is absolutely necessary for the “ratification of
boundaries.” This is a new phrase and a verv in
: definite one. Acccording to the Allies’notion of
ratification, a pretty large slice of Bessarabia -an
■ ild Turkish province annexed in 1812 —will be nt
•essary. According to the Czar’s, :t very small
dip will suffice. In about a month, or five or six
; .veeks, we will know about it. [f peace is not
made by the first or the middle of April, the dogs
if war will begin to bark again.
The Causes of Epidemics.— -In the opinion of
Dr. Candido, the causes of all epidemics of cho
-1 iera, plague, yellow fevet and tvphus which have
levastated parts of the world, may be stated in
the following two propositions :
1. An atmosphere vitiated bv miasms and hu
midity ; occasionally or very often other causes,
different in appearance, but which produce in the
organism analogous or identical effects to those
which proceed from miasms, always appear as con
-•tant co-efficients of epidemics, as the -materia pri
met of these inflictions.
-■ An excitant, a ferment or pestilential focus,
brought from a short or great distance, provoking
levastating epidemics from miasms, or products of
other causes, but equivalent to miasms accumulated
u the organism, is an incontestable fact, and
which place in harmony the contradictory observa
tions which constitute the chaos in the history of
. pestilential epidemics.

Uioher-Water.—We give the following passage
from a parody of Longfellow's Hiawatha, by Jas.
N. Ward, of Ohio, as particularly appropriate and
descriptive at this time:
“ Be not weary and I'll tell you.
Tell you if you are not weary,
Os the mighty Higher-Water:
Higher-Water swelling proudlr,
Proudly swelling down the valley,
On the white wave he descended,
On 0-wa-te-paw the white wave.
With him came the whirling eddies,
Came with him Ker-chuck the big stump ;
Came the rolling logs 0-wah-ses :
Catne the snags the .Tag-ger-nag-gers;
Came Sca-wot-cheste the drift-wood;
Came Ka-rick-e-tv the fence rails ;
Came the corn-stalks, came the bark-wood;
Came a pitching mass of plunder.
Big sticks, little sticks and shavings,
Swimming, driving, hutting, pitching,
Boling, piling, thumping, smashing.
Heaving, tumbling, spinning, crushing,
Hither, thither, this side, that side
What confusion, what a tumult,
What a roaring, what a surging,
What a mighty rush of waters,
What an army of destruction,
Coming down in wrath and fury,
Coming down the handsome river,
Coming down with a High-water,
Filled with raging and with fury,
Bushing down to fight the big rats,
To o’erwhelm the skulking wharf-rats.”
How to be Beautiful.—As we were about to
stnrt, 1 saw the captain move to an elevated position
above the wheel; and it was interesting to see
how quickly and completely the inward thought
or purpose alters the outward man. He gave a
quick glance to every part of the ship. Ho cast
his eye over the multitude coming on board the
ship, among whom was the American embassador
to England, who, if the captain may be said to
embody the ship, may be said with equal truth to
embody in his official person a nation’s right and
honor. He saw the husbands and wives, the
mothers and children intrusted to his care ; and
his slender form, as he gave orders for our de- j
parture, seemed at once to grow more erect and j
firm; the muscles of his face swelled; his dark j
eve glowed with a new fire; and his whole person
expanded and beautified itself by the power of in- i
ward emotion. I have often noticed the interest
ing phenomenon; and have come to the conclu
sion, if man, or woman either, wishes to realize
the full power of personal beauty, it must be by
cherishing noble nones and purposes—by having
something to do, and something to live for, which
is worthy of humanity—and which, by expanding
the capacities of the soul, gives expansion and :
symmetry to the body which contains it.

Westminster Wit. — In a carriage case before 1
the Queen’s Bench, Mr. Hawkins had frequently to
advert to that description of vehicle called a
‘‘brougham,” which he pronounced in proper dis- j
I syllabic form. Lord Campbell suggested that the j
word was frequently contracted to “broom,” which j
was just u-s well known, and the use of which :
j would save a syllable. Henceforward Mr. Haw
j kins called it “broom." Presently the argument
j turned upon omnibuses, and Lord Campbell used i
j the word “omnibus," to which he gave its due j
; length. “ I beg your lordship’s pardon,” retorted
Mr. Hawkins, “but if your lordship will call it i
! ‘bus,’ you will save two syllables, and make it j
| much more intelligible to the witnesses.” The
i learned lord assented to the proposed abbrevia
j lion.
