0o-A writer in the Charleston Courier thul touch- es up tho of Great Briian for their unworthy attempt to appropriate portion of the credit due Leyerrier for the discovery of the new planet.

 In the first notice which took of the new plane- of Leyerrier some weeks ago, curiosity eXpress ed to know howsthe English philosophers would re- ceeive the French proposition 10 give to the planet the of it's illustious dscoverer. It did ter my mind the idea that they would dispute thc glory of discovery and lam il for one of themselves In the simplicity Of my heart, honestly supposed that the extent to which English egotism and envy could go would be 10 seek excuse to told hon bring and rewarding the illustrious Fienchnan in ihe way proposed. But the ingenuity of egoism and the malice of envy have exceeded any expectation. If a German an Italian Astronomer, if an African or kamschatan had made the discovery, Il ight per- haps have been borne; but that young French sa- vant should thus, bevnd, place himself far be- yond and high sbuve all ERglish Astronomers, pasi and presen:-hai the greatest intellectual triumph ,f the age should be achieved by a Frenchman--a Frsachmani-llis is loo bad aud must Rot be admit ted So they produce from St. Johns College, Cam bridge, youthful phenomenon, Master Adams
