This number begins the fourteenth Volume of the "Carolina S|mrt?ui." Another year has been ud<?ed to ita existence?another nnnuul revolution has ml impressed it with features of n deeper sobriety?of ? more expanded fmd developed age. To retrospect the past year at this stand-point is both agreeable and interesting. To deny that wo have had trials, opposition*, and troubius, incident to our vocation, would bo to claim exemption from the influences Pof fentwnrd circumstance*?to arrogate a position above that nllotcd to humanity. The Iloralian doctrine i?, that no oue is satisfied with thnt lot which chance or nature assigns hint. While this, In a re*triotod *? nse, may be regarded as philosophically true, we have no special causes of dimatisfaetion bi chronicle during the post yeur. We have been cheered forward by nit increasing list of friends and generous supporters, by smiles of encouragement and words of comfort. To day we feel that the existence of our paper is more vigorous than at uuy former period. Under considerable accessions to our list, and an increasing advertising patronage, we enter upon tho Fourteenth Volumo with renowetl energies. In the coming year wo contemplate improvement* satisfactory to ourselves and more advantageous to our readers and those who do business in our columns. Some of tbese are near?others more remote. But they will be realised hi good time, as (ar as we can forecast the future. Under this promise, will not our present friends try to enlist moru in our behalf ? A few additional names at eaeb post office might readily be obtuinod ?tho whole swelling to n respectable aggregate ; and the additional means thus brought to our aid will ettablu us to requite the interest taken in tho welfare of this paper. We aro grateful for tho very liberal encouragement that has marked the present management of tho Spartan, and hopeful for the future, But we hall uol relux effort. Wo aim to furnish a good paper?and one glowing constantly belter. Come up to our help, then, and bless us with a long list of prompt paying customers, and see if we do not more than realize the promises now made. SPARTANBURG AND*" UNION RAILROAD.

On Weducaday night, I'lit instant, some scoundrel or scoundrels broke into the store of Messrs Jjeo ?fc Briggs, and the Post Office adjoining, robbing both of money to the amount of about $75. No goods are known to have been stolen from the prom_ iscs. We understand that Lock wood'a boy Ilamp and two other negi ocs have been committed to jail as parties to tho burglary.

These gentlemen are well supplied with every toilette requisite, and wo commend purchasers to them for selection. FRUIT OBTTTSEASON. We arc ngain indebted to Mr. J. M. King, of Rich Hill, for a magnificent Winter Bell Pear, and also for several specimens of his Carolina Seedling Gully, and Yellow Limber-Twig Apples. Jl Under the impulse given to fruit culture by our Agricultural Society a demaud has sprung up for trees which he cannot at present supply, lie hopes however, in a your or so, to be fully able to till ail orders directed to him. In the meantime, we invite those iu wont of fruit trees to ilie advertisement ol Mr. Hamilton, of North Carolina, who will ho here on sale day next with au ample stock. . tliu treasury surplus. Muc h anxiety is felt among merchants and st ttcstueii ul tho largo ?u> plus in the Treasury of the IJnileJ States. To this fear, inoro than to any other reason, is to he at tribute.! the desire in certain quarters to reduce the tariff*. The hanks nnd ntorehauts look with alarm at the accumulation of specie in the treasury vaults, abstracting flout trade its very life, and threatening a money crisis. At tho end of the present fiscal year, without some action of Congress providing a safety-valve, the independent treasuries will have ?43,000,000 in their vaults.

On the 25th December wo comment' J with souio severity upon the pcrinisaion given to the President of tho Blue Ridge Railroad to advocatu iti iotcreeU before the bar of the Ilouee in our Legislature, nud, ou the assertion of Mr. ex-Speaker MiddlcU-n, hi Id the pcrmis-ioit to bo unusuul and the i nfluence unparliamentary." We oro well aware. that precedents may be fouud in thu action of several Legislatures a* to tho old Charleston, Liuisvillu, and Ciueiunnti road?our own included. But to our minds there my ins to be a broad distinction between an enterprise in contemplation and oue actually in progress, where State uid hnJ been already ^ liberally granted, mid the uliject was to remove wiso re trietions and safeguards fur the protecliou o' public trust funds. We liuve conversed with seve- ' ' rul members of the Legislature on the subject, and ^ not one of tbcni has adduced 11 stronger precedent tlum the one above alluded to. I'ut we do not rest our viiidiontiou even on tho , fr i?oinl already made. Wo maiutaiu that American ^ pnrliaineuturv practice?in Congress, for instance? ^ never allows influence ?f this character to approach ^ either Housa nearer than the committees. And thcio ia wisdom iu this limitation of personal importuu ty. Written and printed statements may be ^ resorted to?members muy be posted outsido tho ^ bodies?committees may iii<{uire nud rc|Hirt;?and the sum of evidence for or against u measure is K ft ^ to exercise whatever control it may legitimately ex- , ert upon legislation.

If our logs 1 need rolling, certain it is we shall never give them rotary motion by such corrupt agency. A measure ' is right or wrong: If right, let its merits decide; if 11 wrong, vole it down. We had rather see purity iu legislation than witness the success of a luvorite measure through questionable iiitluences. ^ I'AICTV TO TIIK MORGAN UIFLCS. v Mr. Walker's gentlemanly assistant, Mr. J. ?

It was not only a delicate compliment to the corps, but ^ afforded a fine opportunity fur gratifying the public with a sight of their h indsomo ap|>earaiice, and also gave the Community a specimen of his capacity in " hotel keeping. And in ull he was successful. The new and capacious Hall?which is named " nfter Washington?was coufortuhly crowded with 'f ladu a mid gentlemen, who enjoyed themselves in social converse until Iiulf-|>a8t leu, when sup|>er was r> announced. 1 >escetiding to the I >ining-Rooin, two sumptuous tables were spread out in the perfection of culinary art; nnJ when wo say that the onlerUin- ai incut, iu this department, was a noble one, wo full al sli^rl of the Commendation bestowed on nil hands ^ n|H>n Mrs. Walker'a chef d'a urre.

V< The whole a flier passed off pleasantly and harmoniously, and no incident occurred to mar in tlie slightest degree the enjoyments of the night. It ^ may not he amis* to say, that tho new company turned out forty uniforms, and made a handsome ^ display. When tho ranks are tilled, and all fully equipped, no District ca n boast a finer-looking corps j of citizen soldiers than Spartanburg. ^ EDITORIAL CONVENTION. 'I lie Newberry Sun of tho 18th inst. suggests a Convention ot tlio proprietors of Ncwspapcnfniti South Carolina, to ho held, siy at Columbia or Charleston, for the benefit of the press, and to intro duce the cosh system for subscription and dvet-ti sing. While we feel no particular enthusiasm on this (u subject, we are not averse to thu proposed couven- t? lion. Something beneficial might result from such Ji meeting, even if its action da u.?t prove a panacea g, for all the ills ol ticwspapql.fStblishers. Wo have sonio experience in this matter from the effort made it a few years ago. Much was anticipated from that moveiiicut?but, apart from several gooJ addresses i ^ and good dinners, it was a total failure iu all prac- *j' tical aJvantage. To cat and dr.tik m the worst pos- Si sihle preparation for the despatch of business. If it shall prove acceptable to the press to hold y. the pro|M?ud cuuvciition, wu hope that, prior to its a meeting, each publisher (or editor) will give his M thoughts to the kind of business which should be ^ transacted, aud be ready to refer ull propositions to q> a committee lor suggestion and digestion. Should i ?>( nothing he ready in this way, haste to get home j will defeat agreement U|kju anything that will pay interest upon tlio expense of going to Columbia or '* Char lesion. nt IMPEACHMENT OF*ATEIIKR.1L JUIUiK. An effort is being made in Congress to imjieach j, tho United States I hstriet Judge of Texas?Wat- j), roiis. The Judiciary Committee reported on the w bill instant the following resolution; j C(J *Ketolred, That John C. Watrous, lluitcd . i States District Judge fur tho district of Texas, he ' impeached of high crimes and misdemeanors.'' j TJ After debate the ?uhj?vt w,b uiu l the 21*'?last Saturday, Mr. Kvaus, ofTexas, thought tk.it it was due not only to Ju ige Wntrous, but to the Stale < ( Tenia, au that the resolution should he agreed to, that the (,> judge should be placed upon his trial, and be afford- (|| od an opportunity to acquit himself before the Senate of the United States, if innocent of the charges that had been preferred against hint. Soon niter Judge Wotrous was made a district judge of Texan, : he f< II under suspieion, and it became the settled |ui I opinion of n large majority ol the people of Texas that he was engaged in fraudulent land .speculations, o That op'nion was endorsed hy the legislature of I Texas in IRIS,and lie believed there were hut few members of the bar?but very few of the citizens of Fi Texas?who did not regard Judge Watrousns irnplicated in sonic manner in that class of litigation, and improperly so. Under these circumstances, it was but fair?it was but due to the purity ol courts, " i and to the administration of justice?that tli s judge cli j should he put ii|H>n trial. Ilo knew nothing of Ti ! Judge Watroui himself, was never in his court; hut 1 ho believed there was no question that ho was a man of eminent legal ability. Asa representative nr ! of Texiu, however, it was his duty to say that, while that judge continued to hold olttce, It would be equivalent to having no court at all, uuless lie should w I free himself Irani the suspicions that now attached (v I to him. , ^?s?

The ^ occasion 0 nsistcd of a troop of cavalry, four uni , rmcd companies of Infantry, a long train of car- ( iges, and a number of citizens on foot?the whole needed by n band of music with muffled drums. , lie length of the col'tnui could not have been less an n liuif mile. As it passed through Ilroad j reel, almost every piazza, balcony and window ere crowded with ladies, eager to witness the sou ibutc to the gallant deceased. Many of the 'omiucu* business houses were closed; and the hole occasion every way one to be long roemberod.

At a little before dark the procession halted in out of the American Hotel, Hamburg, when the ?tliu was taken from the hearse by the officers of le volunteer companies, and deposited in the hotel trior, which had been appropriately hung with lack The escort frutu Augusta then returned to j tat city, nnd the rcmnins ol our lumcntcd repronitativo were in tho keeping of his constituents ad friend*.

The town authorities had every luccssav arrangement made, and the citizens generally ntered into the manifestations of respect with nueh cordiality.' At 0 o'clock a. n?., (Saturday,) the cofiln was wiirtjriil by the Hamburg Committee to the hearse. It was escorted out of the corporate limits by a argo number of citizens ou foot, under the comnaiul of Col. Stuart Harrison, one of the marshals < the preceding day. Upon the hill above the [own this escort opened ranks, facing inwards, nud the hearse, flanked by the field oHicers of the 7lh llcgitnent, and followed by a number of enrriages Conveying the various committees, |>asscd through an its way to Kdgciield village, where the iulertwcul was ti> tuko place. At half-|>ast 3 o'clock p. m., the cortege, now very largely increased by the fulling into line of many uarriages on the route, approached Edgefield. The approach was announced by a signal gun tired m the outskirts of the village. A few miles out, the head of the procession was met by the Edgefield Hussars, (Capt. Griffin,) who then conducted the advance. Within sight of the town, a long array of citixi ns was marshalled e>n either side of the road, who were at oiico placed in line immediately in front of the eorpsu, the whole under the jsMmie# of Maj. S. S. Tompkins, ai-s-strd hy lieutenants Adams and l'ciin. And thus the entire pinc?ssioti entered the village square. We had not, until then, formed a correct idea of the numbers in attendance. The large area was literally filled with men, women and cluldreii. The body was at oiicc tuken into one of the smaller u|>arluicnls of the Court House, that the family of the deceased might in piivate take their melancholy leave of it. It was then placed ujkiu tile tuble oi the court risun, and thousands oauio to look for a moment upon the strong man striekeu dowu by the h ind of death iu tin- mid career of his earthly exertions. Not theleast nHeeling part of this scene was the number of servants who caine crowding in, by pcrmiaiou, to see tho face of the dead once more bo lore it went down into the grave; among them a weeping old woman who had uurscd the deceased in Ins childhood. At length, the privilege of l.H.kiug an adieu having be en accorded to all, the remains were'again placed in the hearse, the procession again formed, and the saddened assemblage were soon met once more around an open grave in the village churchyard. Ou one side of it sleeps the dua! of the father of him who now goes to make one more among the pale nations under the sod. On the other, >s a small tomb that briefly tells the end of an infant daughter gone before I er parent. Near by is the monument of n gallant brother who fell in Mexico. The Rev. Mr. Kcid feelingly pronounced the impress] vo burial service of the Kpiscopal church. The Collin was lowered to its last receptacle. 'Hie brick arch was rapidly turned over the vault. The earth was shovelled ill. The crowd dispersed. The night came on. The dews of heaven fell upon the fresh grave. All was quiet among the white tombs.
