We are sorry to know that our barber, Albert
Henderson, met with a sad accident on Moudny
evening on this wise: Soveral young men were
seated in his shop, when n revolver dropped on the
floor, discharging u ball into iho foot of the poor fellow.
Surgical aid was promptly procured, but all
efforts thus far have failed to extract the ball, which
is lodged in the hones of the instep. Fears arc entertained
that the foot must come off.

From the' severA extra? issued front the Spartan
oflfioo mcst of our., readers art aware tliat Buchanan
and Br cc Win ridge, the Detnocratiu nominee*
of the Cincinnati Convention, have been elected
to the Presidency and Vice Presidency of the
United Slates iorjpur years from the 4th of Marob,
1857. We congratulate the South?theoouhlry?
on this reault; in-smuch na it affords proof of a
general- conservatism among f the people of the
Uuion, and gives breathing time .to the South to
dcterm'ne dispassionately what measures of security
shall bo adopted for the future. We havo no idea
that the strife ia over, but we have now more definite
data on which to estimate the-strength of
Northern combination against us, na the Prcaidontial
election waa n contest between the constitution
and its cnemico-?betwecn slavery and ao-slavery.
The Democratic party, as far as wo are now able
to judge, will havo possession of tho Executive and
Legislative Departments of the General Government,
nnd now ia the auspicious moment?apart
from passion and political excitement?coolly to Approach
tho solution of tho problem whether this
Union shall bo continued as a blessing to all tbo
States, or whether power shall be peaocfully surrendered
up to tho several States for tho oonstruotioo
of homogeneous governments. The South
cannot and ought not remain insecure. Tbe facility
with .which her rights havo been interpreted and
legislated away must bo checked, nnd this check
can only be given by express amendment of the I
Constitution.
We propose, therefore, that tho Legislatures of
the Southern States, by solemn sanction of law, 1
oonvene State Conventions, wliiob shall depute and
commission Delegates to a General Congress of i
the 81avcholding Strtcs, to dctermino what amend- <
meuta are necessary to the great compaut of Union
to guard tho peace aud integrity of our section, and (
render ua secure in rights and property. When ,
1 the laltors of this body are completed, let the i
amendments agreed on bo proposed to tho Confederacy.
If adopted, the Uuion will still remain (
intact, with reasonable hope of pcaoeful enduranoe. i
If rejected, let Conventiona of tho two seotioca 1
negotiate a division of the national liabilities and assetts,
nnd quietly dissolve the Union, without further
animosity or strife.
Since tho abovo was written we find in the
Charleston Mercury a letter of lour columns from
Hon. R. Barnwell Rhclt, addressed to Governor <
Adams. Iu that letter we find tho following para- I
graph, iu which the very same idea is expressed: c
"Tho States, ju their sovereign capacity, adopted
tho Constitution; and by their action alone can Any t
new guaranties bo inserted into it. Oue or more
of the Southern States cf.n test our truo condition,
by proposing to amend the Constitution by such
now sceuri'<cs as our safety and liberties require, i
If tho Northern States accept of then), then tho ,
Union will bo worth preserving. If they reject
them, 1st tho Union be dissolved."
While we admit that a single Stato oould furnish
a true test in tiiis matter, yet we would have, as
more satisfactory, the whole machinery of our aeo- '
tion brourhl into piny, ns exerting greater mora1 1
power, nnd being moro in harmony with the gcuiui
of our institutions.
We commend this matter to tho journals and
people of the South, though emanating from the remote
District of Spartanburg. It will havo the
merit of being regular and orderly?and, uninfluenced
by the stings of political defeat or present fears
of losing power in the councils of the country, such
action will show tho settled determination of the J
South to maintain her rights, aud sit in security
under her owft vine nnd fig tree.
GRAND Jl'RY"PRESENTMENT.
Tho grand jury of Charleston, fall urm, 185C,
make sundry Important presentments. Among
litem ore the following, in which tho whole Stato
bas much interest, viz:
The evils of having two days iu which to hold the c
usual elections?recommending one only.
The delay of important business by the increasing 1
number of frivolous cases now claitniug the alten- P
tion of the courts; nnd recommend four terms in "
Charleston, or an additional judge.
A revision of the criminal laws, and nn abridge- "
ment of tho right to traverse for misdemeanors. ll
m ? ? ? ' ?-? *
iuo laws delay, *Hvil and criminal, is regarded '
a great grievance, and calls fur prompt remedy; It *'
ia further suggested, that every district is entitled a
to the cfBc:ent adinhiistration of justice nt the cost
of the State, but that no such provision at present n
exists. "
A codification and arrangement of the statute *
laws of the State is urged; as, front the want of
these, learning nud experience arc alike set at deftance,aud
no security is ufTorded to the iuunsts or
property of the citixcn. In illustration of the necessity
of this codification, the jury allege (what
may be true for ought we know) that n large body
of laws are of force whoso enactment by the Purlin- *
tnent of England embraces a period of time beginning
almost with the Nomina Conquest, and reaching
down to 1709, and ot which even the judges on
the bench are ignorant.
Contemplating the facility with which criminals
escape punishment under our present criminal sys- '*
tent, in consequence of the penalty being too severe,
the erection of a penitentiary is pnsscd upon the
Legislature, and tbe confident opinion avowed, from
the experience of other States, that tho system 17
would woi k well.
Wc heartily concur in nearly all theso rcoom- 5
mendations. but fear that ivH.-.t
" " "" \">>J <;
needed in the way of reform, and recognised as "*
necessary by the common sentiment of the State,
will fall upon unwilling cars in the Legislature. I'
Hut how can it be otherwise? The sessions nro so r:
brief ns scarcely to suffice for the transaction of tho A
imperative routhio business absolutely demand d to C
keep tho wheels of the State Government in mo- ('
tionj and how, then, ean wo look for the perfecting hi
af now measures, requiring thought and discartLa -.!
and interchange of opinion? 'Hie jealousy of the v<
parishes stifles all effort at change or reform, lest m
ionic wedge should glance from its apparent course,
id3 split off the gnarled and knotty excrescence, or p,
weaken its power of checkmating popular demon* se
itrations. It matters not that a proposed measure L

That we have examined tlio various reports of the C<

Tlio report of the Commissioners of Puhlio Build- w?
ngs has been laid before ns, without the proper oh

xtrrectiivas of it. of
The ro;id* and bridges in our district are in good di<
irdcr, with tho exception of a few, to wit: The
itono bridge within the incorporate limits of Sparanburg
village; also, the bridge across Lawson's^
Kork, above Thomson's mills. Sn
On examination of the jail and its inmates, we oa
hid them well provided for, and managed by a at:
rery prudent jailer. Tho jail needa some rt pairs, fei
0 wit: Tho whitewashing of tome of the rooms; |
ilso, new sleepers in one room; also, the roof needs
iorr>c repairs. Wercoommend the erection of a ' 1,1

r A resolution was passed unanimously that it was I
tho senso of tho General Assembly that dto Eleo- 1
tors should cost their votes for Buchanan nod
I Breckinridge?tho Domocratio nominees. Mr.
Ycadon of Charleston, a strong Fillmore man
throughout the campaign, mured in the House that
tho word hunanimously" be inserted in the resolution
after tho word resolved. His motion was adopt*
, ed of course. A resolution nl?o passed tlje House
. j and was ..incurred in by the Senate, that in choosing
Electors no refcrcneo was had to opinion* of the 1
nominees in regard to national nominating Con* '
, venlions. Neither tho Convention n<>r anti-Colt- '
rentiou party can therefore claim a victory in the
choice of Electors. En passant we may remark, '
that of llio eight electors chosen two favored the 1
, convention system and went to Cincinnati,while six 1
opposed it.
In tho Senate a resolution was offered by Mr. 1
Maxyck, and p issed without opposition, calling on '
, tho President of the Blue llidge Railroad Company 1
in South Curolina for a Htutcment of the stock hold- 1
era in that compa.iy, the amount paid in by each,
and sundry other information in regard to it, and

I No further business of importance wsu transacted, '
ami ?>n Tuesday afternoon both branches of the '
Legislature adjourned.
Sinco Tuesday night election returns from dif- '
( fcrent States have been slowly coming in. Returns 1
generally indieato the election of Ruck and '
Ilrcck" by a respectable majority. On Saturday it
, was supposed that lluchaumi had received 169 '
votes, Fremont 114, Fillmore 8, and 4 votes (those I 1
r of California) wore counted doubtful. Ueturns re- '
ceived since then make the vote of Tennessee (12
vo'cs) and that of Indiana (13 rotes) doubtful. Doth '
! j of theso tvete enumerated for lauchunan, and if oue
; has gone for Fillmore and the other for Fremont, I
liuelianan will have 111 votes only?lacking three
, of un election. Returns are yet to be received from '
California, ami Iter vole may settle the <juestion?so
, fsr n? a choice by the Electoral rote is concerned.
I Maryland gave Mr. Fillmore orcr 7,006 majority.
New York was carried by Fremont to the tuno of
50,000 majority. The Herald and Tribune acknowledge
Fremont's defeat, but consols themselves
with the philosophical reflection tlut nil will
not bo well. If the lllaek Republicans, (say they,)
with an imperfect urgauhntion, no money, and no
electoral ticket in 11 States, can defeat tho American
party in 1856, they can in 1600 deleat the i
Democrats. Well, let them hove sotno consolation,
however poor. The next election *?ill show whothcr
their predictions aro to be verified. i
