City Taxes in Charleston.
Some of our complaining fellow citizens may de
rive consolation by the perusal of the following,

Private letters have been received from Nicara

vious to last advices a Spanish steam frigate had
taken up a position at the mouth of the Gulf of

her lines, doubtless, are reaching eastward towards
the Ural Mountains. At the conclusion of tin
war, she will he sure to extend them eastward still
into her Asiatic provinces. She will have the best
skill that American genius can supply to assist her
in these enterprises ; and she will undoubtedly be
ready to meet the United Mates half the way,
and perhaps more than half the way, in connect

“ hatched,” and now around the docks may be
seen millions of miniature white fish. Here is a
fact iu the breeding of fish which the knowing
ones ought to investigate, for, if fish can be clean

what is the use of all the artificial arrangements
now proposed to propagate fish V

Thh Risk of the Dutch Repcblic. A History.
l!v J. L. Moti.kt, in 3 vol. octavo.
This work, from the press of Harper A Bros., [
has come before the public unheralded by fame, |
the author being a young man whose literary repu- |
tation is yet in the future. He appears with- ;
out pretension, and modestly trusts to the in
trinsic merits of his work for its success. The
author has been kindly and favorably greeted bv
the reviews, and is in a fairway of taking hbdi
rank among the historical writers of the day.
His subject is well selected to arrest public at
tention, as it treats of a most interesting period of
European history, and of most important changes
in forms of Government. It will especially attract
the sympathies of the American reader.
The style is terse and lucid, evidently indicating j
a man of vigorous thought. As a specimen of the j
style, and to give some idea of the scope of the
work, we copv the following passage from the pre
face.
It is for sale in this city by M. G. McKixne. It
is neatly printed in three volums octavo, of about
six hundred pages each :
“So much is each individual State but a member
of one great international commonwealth, and s >
close is the relationship bettveen the whole human
family, that it is impossible for a nation, iv. n
while struggling for itself, not to acquire some
thing for all mankind. The maintuiuance of the
right by the little provinces of Holland and Zea
land in the sixteenth, by Holland and England
united in the seventeenth, and by the united
States of America in the eighteenth centuries,
forms but a single chapter in the great volume of
human fate; for the so-called revolutions of Hol
land, England, and America, are all links of one
chain.
“To the Dutch Republic, even more than to
Florence at an earlier day, is the world indebted
tor practical instruction in the great science of po
litical equilibrium which must always become
more and more important as the various States of
the civilized world are pressed more closely to
gether, and as the struggle for pre-eminence be
comes more feverish and fatal. Courage and skill
in political and military combinations enabled
W illiam the Silent to overcome the most power
ful and unscrupulous monarch of his age. The
same hereditary audacity and fertility of genius
placed the destiny of Europe in the hands of Wil
liam’s great-grandson, and enabled him to mould
into an impregnable barrier the various elements
ot opposition to the overshadowing monarchy of
Louis XIV. As the schemes of the Inquisition
and the unparalleled tyranny of Philip, in one
century, led to the establishment of the Republic
of the United Provinces, so, in the next, the revo
cation of the Nantes Edict and ihe invasion of Hol
land are avenged by the elevation of the Dutch
stallholder upon the throne of the stipendiary
Stuarts.
“To all who speak the English language, the his
tory of the great agony through which the Repub
lic of Holland was ushered into life must have pe
culiar interest, for it is a portion of the records of
the Anglo-Saxon race—essentially the same,
whether in Friesland, England, or Massachusetts
“A great naval and commercial commonwealth,
occupying a small portion of Europe but conquer
ing a wide empire by the private enterprise ot
trading companies, girdling the world with its
innumerable dependencies in Asia, America, Afri
ca, Australia—exercising sovereignty in Brazil,
Guiana, the West Indies, New York,‘at the Cap
of Good Hope, in Hindustan, Cevlon, Java, Suma
tra, New Holland—having first laid together, as it
! were, the grandest of the Cyclopean blocks, out
of which the magnificent British realm, at a later
period, has been constructed—must always be
looked upon with interest by Englishmen, as in a
great measure the precursor in their own scheme
of empire. For America the spectacle is one oi
still deeper import. The Dutch Republic origina
nated in the opposition of the rational elements of
human nature to sacerdotal dogmatism and perse
cution —in the courageous resistance of historical
and chartered liberty to foreign despotism. Neither
that liberty nor ours was born of the cloud-embra
ces of a false Divinity with a Humanity of impos
sible beauty, nor was the infant career of either
arrested in blood and tears by the fondness of its
worshippers. “To maintain," not to overthrow,
was tile device of the Washington of the sixteenth
| century, as it was the aim of our hero and his
! great coternporaries.
“The great Western Republic, therefore in
; whose Anglo-Saxon veins flows much of that
| ancient and kindred blood received from the na
| tion once ruling a noble portion of its territory,
i and tracking its own political existence to the same
parent spring of temperate human liberty must,
look with affectionate interest upon the trials
: of the elder commonwealth. These volumes re
cite the achievement of Dutch independence, for
| its recognition was delayed till the acknowledg
• ment was superfluous and ridiculous. The exist
| t-nce of the Republic is properly to be dated from
j the Union of Utreclit, in 15S1, while the final sopa
| tation of territory into independent and obedient
j provinces, into the Commonwealth of the United
I States and the Belgian provinces of Spain, was in
reality effected by William the Silent, with whose
i death three years subsequently, the heroic period
iof the history may be said to“ terminate. At this
point these volumes close. Another series, with
; less attention to minute details, and carrying the
story through a longer range of years, will paint
j the progress of the Republic in'its palmy days,
and narrate the establishment of its external s'ys
i tem ot dependencies and its interior combinations
for .self-government and European counterpoise.”
Different Destinies of two Brothers, .1.
ami Frank Fremont.
The Montgomery Mail traces the history of the
two brothers Fremont—one of whom stands n
good chance of gaining the empty honor of the
Black Republican nomination for tlie Presidencv.
In tlie course of its sketch that paper says:
If Col. Fremont was not born in Charleston, he
was carried there at a very early age bv his moth
er, and lie certainly received there the education
which fitted him for subsequent success and dis
tinction. He was the protege of the Ladies' Benee
•:*nt Soviet]/ of Charleston, some members of
which found the family in great need and aided
them. Young J. C. Fremont was discovered to
have talent, and by the interest of these same la
dies, became the beneficiary of a charity scholar
ship in Charleston College. He was 'graduate*
there, with distinction, having shown (as we a
- heard,) decided mathematical talent. Subse
quently, through the influence already mentioned,
Mr. Poinsett was induced to get him an appoint
ment as a teacher of mathematics, on board a na
tional vessel; thence he was transferred to the
corps of Topographical Engineers—not very long
afterwards married a daughter of Hon. Tims. H.
Benton, and began his brilliant and rapid rise.
Every one kuows his subsequent history.
Col. Frenmnt had a brother, Frank, "a year or
two younger, who went on the stage very earlv.
He was a bluff looking, hearty fellow, seeming
very much more like a man destined to military
leadership, than his brother. For some little time,
Frank made a sensation and got to be called the
■‘Charleston Roscius”—but gradually came to be
considered merely a tolerable stock' actor. After
lie had been on the stage some years, he married
m New 1 ork, as well as we recollect. Somewhere
about while playing an engagement in
Buffalo, N. ) ~ lie got into an Abolition riot of
some kind, and while lighting gallantly for South
ern principles, received a heavy blow on his head
which affected his brain. From this he never re
covered -the injury tin ally settled upon his lungs
and he died of consumption.
He continued to play, we believe, up to a few
days before his death, which we think occurred in
Columbus, Ga., in 1332. At any rate, the writer
of this found him there (with some little trouble,
as lie was playing under an assumed name,) hav
ing been charged with a message to him, bv his
mother—who, it may be remarked, was a quiet,
melancholy woman, greatly devoted to her sons.
It is a little striking, that these two brothers,
born and reared enslave soil, should, by tlie merest
accidents, both have been so nearly affected bv
Abolitionism, personally. The one is knocked on
the head and "done for” by fanaticism, while the
other makes a name infamous which had else been
truly famous, by giving Ids influence to tlie mis
creants who wage an unholy war upon the institu
tions of his own section, and of a p op'elwho raised
him from his lowliness and placed him on the
high road to fame and boundless wealth. If he
ever thinks of his origin, he must see the depth of
au ingratitude almost sublime.

took fire a few minutes after one o’clock, this

From appearances the destruction seems to be
complete.
The Thomas G. Haight was brought to this city
a few months ago and placed on the line to Flori

Office Lafayette Kansas Emigrating
Society.
Lafayette Cocxty, Mo., March 25, 1656.
To t/o people uj the Southern. States :
On the undersigned, “ Lafayette Emigrating So
ciety,” has devolved the important duty of calling
the attention of the people of the slaveholding
States to the absolute necessity of immediate ac
tion on their part, in relation to the settlement of
Kansas Territory. The crisis is at hand. Prompt
and decisive measures must be adopted, or fare- j
well to Southern rights and independence.
The western counties of Missouri have, for the
last two years, been heavily taxed, both in money
and time, in fighting the battle of the South. La
fayette county, alone, has expended more than
$104,1100 in money, and as much, or more, in time.
Up to this time the border counties of Missouri
have upheld and maintained the rights and inter
ests of the South, in this struggle, unassisted, and
not unsuccessfully. But the Abolitionists, staking
their all upon the Kansas issue, and hesitating at
uo means, fair or foul, are moving Heaven and
earth to render that beautiful Territory not only a
“ Free State,” so called, hut a den of negro thieves
and “higher law” incendiaries.
Missouri, we feel confident, lias done her duty, 1
and will still be found ready and willing to do all
she can, fairly and honorably, for the maintain
ane ■of tlie integrity of the South. But the time
has come when she can no longer stand up, single
handed, the lone champion of the South, against
the myrmidons of the entire North. It requires
no great foresight to perceive that if the “higher
law” men succeed in this crusade, it will be but the
commencement of a war upon th • institution* of the
Smith, which 'iriS continue until slavery shall reuse to
Mist in any of th States, or the Union is dissolved.
How, then, shall these impending evils be avoid
ed V The answer is obvious—.s', file the Territory
with emigrants from the South. The population of
the. Territory at this time is about equal; as many
pro-slavery settlers as Abolitionists—but the fana
tics have emissaries in all the free States—in al
most every village- and by misrepresentations
and falsehoods are engaged in collecting money,
and enlisting men to tyrunizc over the South. Is
it in the nature of southern men to submit without
resistance, to look to the North for their laws and
institutions? We do not believe it. If, then, the
South is influenced by a spirit of self-respect and
independence, let societies be formed to assist emi
grants. Those who cannot emigrate can contribute
money to assist those who can. We have such so
cieties iu Missouri, and we can induce more people
to emigrate than we are able to support. If the
whole South would adopt this system, we would
succeed. Kansas would be a slave State, and the
slavery agitation would cease. If we permit the
North to make an Abolition State of Kansas, the
whole South must submit to be governed by the
North. Will the South help us ? The great strug
gle will come off at the next election in October,
1856, and unless the South can at that, time main
tain her ground, all will be lost. We repeat it,
the crisis has arrived. The timt has come for ac
tion, bold, determined action : words will no longer
do unv good. We must have men m Kansas, and
that, too, by tens of thousands. A few wi i not an
swer. If we should need teii thousand, an t lack
one of that number, all will count nothing. Let
all, then, who can come, do so at once. Tlios ’ who
cannot come, must give their money to help others
to come. There are hundreds of thousands of
broad acres of rich land, worth from $5 to s•'■() per
acre, open to settlement and pre-emption at £1.25
per acre. Let, then, the farmer come and bring
iiis slaves with him. There arc now one thousand
slaves in Kansas, whose presence there strengthens
our cause. Shall we allow these rich lands and
this beautiful country to be overrun by our Aboli
tion enemies? We know, of a surety, that they
have emissaries and spies in almost every town,
village and city in the South, watching our move
ments, and tampering with our slaves. Let us,
then, be vigilant and active iu the cause. We
must maintain our ground. The foss of Kansas
to tiie South will be the death knell of our dear
Union.
Missouri has done nobly, thus far, in overcom
ing the thousands who have been sent out by Abo
lition Aid Societies; we cannot hold out much
longer, unless the whole South will come to the
rescue. Wo need men ; we need money ; send us
both, and that quickly. Do not delay ; come as
individuals, come in companies, come by thous
ands.
Our hearts have been made glad by the late ar
rival <>f large coin guides from South Carolina and
Alabama. They have responded promptly to our
call for help. The noble Buford is already en
deared to our hearts, we love him; we will
tight for him, and die for him and his companions.
Who will follow his noble example ': We tell you
now, and tell you frankly, that unless you come
quickly, and come by thousands, we are gone. The
elections once lost, all lost forever. Thou farewell
to our Southern cause, and farewell to our
glorious Union. We repeat the cry “come
over and help us.”

Improve the City.
Mr. Editor: lam happy that the subject of im
proving our City is being agitated through your
columns. It is unquestionably a matter of vital
importance, and the suggestions of your corres
pondent, “ Augusta,” ought to enlist the earnest
attention of our people. Well paved or macad
amised streets, and an abundant supply of water
to lay the dust and arrest the progress of fires,
would add vastly to the comfort and security of
city residences.
In this connection 1 would suggest the propriety
of extending through the remainder of Broad
street a double row of trees, such as are now plant
ed above and below the market houses. This
would lessen the width of the portion to lie mac
adamized, furnish a beautiful promenade ground,
add to the coolness of this street, and probably be
promotive of public health.
The drainage of our City is believed to he unlike
that of any other. The adoption of a different sys
< m in all other towns should a! least induce us to
question the advantages of our own, if experience
■lid not demonstrate the inetti deucy as well as its
expensiveness. Filthy ditches, which on being con
inually deepened, until it is dangerous to drive
through the streets, and bridges innumerable and
often out of order, involving an annual outlay of
upwards of twelve thousand dollars. Such are the
fruits of our system. Is it not high time that some
change be made ? Let a competent person be ap
pointed to grade the streets and side walks, and
to locate the drains upon the margin of these
side-walks, and the city may he effectually drain
ed at a comparatively small annual expense. Bv
doing this work gradually, the first cost would
scarcely be felt, and in a few years the whole as
pect of our streets would he changed for the
better. Citinen.

;- v Diseases of the Liver. When the
celebrated Dr. Rush declared that drunkenness was
a disease, he enunciated a truth which the experi
ence and observation of medical men is every day
confirming. The many apparently insane excesses
of those who indulge in the use of spirituous liquors,
may be thus accounted for. The true cause of con
duct, which is taken for infatuation, is very fre
quently a diseased state of the Liver. No organ m
the human system, when deranged, produces a
more frightful catalogue of diseases. And if, in
stead of applying remedies to the manifestations of
disease, as is too often the case, physicians would
prescribe with a vic-w to the original cause, fewer
deaths would result from diseases induced by a de
ranged state of the Liver. Three-fourths of the dis
eases enumerated under the head of Consumption,
have their seat in a diseased Liver. Dr. M’Lane's

I dieted with the “Sun Fain ” for the last ten years,
i and could never get relief except by bleeding; but
| by the use of 11. G. Farrell’s Arabian Liniment.,
. applied over the temples about three or four times
; a day, it was entirely removed, and 1 have felt
i nothing of ii since. I went into the stable one
j night, to apply il to a horse's sore leg, and being
| very lame lie stumbled and fell against mv tegs,
I crushing and bruising them so badly that ibev
i turned black as m v bat, rendering them powerless.
I applied your Liniment, and was well enough in a
[ few days to go about again as usual. 1 also crushed
my linger in a shocking manner, by letting a back
log fall upon il ; vour Liniment soon healed il up
though. JOHN B. M’GEE.
LaSalle Precinct, Peoria Co., 111., Feb. (i, 184‘.i.
[ Esq. Garter, of Xcw Canton, 111., says: *
Mr. 11. G. Farrell's Arabian Liniment lias cured
some bad cases here, which every other remedy
had failed in ; one was a white swelling and con
tracted cords in the leg of a bov twelve years old.
The leg had withered away, and was so contracted
that he had no -of it. Three doctors had tried
their skill upon it in vain, and /„• teas fast sinking
/<■ the grave, when the boy’s father was induced lo
try H. G. Farrell’s Arabian Liniment. Before the
first bottle was used up, lie came to Mr. B.’s store,
and the first words he said wore, “ Mr. Barker, 1
want all that Liniment von have in the store; the
one bottle I got did my boy more good than all that
had ever been done before.” That boy is now well
and hearty, and has free use of his legs. It is good
for sprains, bruises, cuts, burns and swellings.
Lookout for Counterfeits!
The public are cautioned against another coun
terfeit, which lias latelv made its appearance, called
VV. B. Farrell’s Arabian Liniment, the most dan
gerous of all the counterfeits, because his having
the name of Farrell, many will buy it m good
faith, without the knowledge that a counterfeit ex

when the spurious mixture lias wrought its evil
effects.
