But, hundreds of our people have n ine to sow. This is a sad slate of thing'. Is til ere no way?no plan, by which the needy may bo supplied ? We think there is. Let out feelings of sympathy for the suffering* of the poor and destitute, bo accompanied by act.- ol benevolence nnd cbarily, by loaning a few bushels for sowing?lo be returned when hutvested. To relieve the wants of the poor us far as wc are nhle and compassionate their sorrows?will covet- a multitude of sins. The Situation The whole scope and bearing, | a-t or present?State or Federal of Nuitbern legislation has ever been, and continues to be conducted with a single eye to the a.-quisition of sectional power nnd wealth, at the cost or to the injury aud degradation of the South. This, every body could soe. in every instance where North ern iniere Is could be promoted?lawlully or unlawfully?justly or unjustly?it was. give us power, gi/o us money. This object has al ways been lo tbetn, the one lliiug needful; and they have devoted all (heir p wers, aud called iulo piny every passion and faculty, tu feed their greedy and oovotiousappctile for the acquisition of power and property which just ly belongth to other* We have made the above statements believ ing every word to be true; and that the coin neteial and political world, could bear testimony to the same ''fleet. Having been for so long a time, it witucas to their insatiable tbirs' for plunder it lias hery and ruin ? What are wo to expect troni such ti people! Nothing hu iqjus'ioe. The election." already held, is a true iudex of the results o! those which aro to follow shortly. The Rndi oals have the power iu their own hands. How they will use it, we know not.

Work for (he Ladle* Again. ( We liurn. through the Carolinian, ihut * nnmKcr .ftlie ladies of Columbia, prompted vc by the necessity of finding employment for M that large class of persons, whose tucuns hare in becu swept away by the calamitous termina- Si tiou of the war, have determined to organise la an association for the purpose of obtaining fit materials, and encouraging the manufacture ni of a description of clothing seldom met with ol at the North, and sending it for sale to those an points where money is abundant, and wealth uf can atl'ord to pay lor such luxuries of the lui- jtl lette as the ladies know so well how to fabri- j( cato. It is proposed to attach to the itistiiu- |u tiou, a home store, in which articles may he j, deposited tor sale ? (the name of the depositer f to bo witlield if desired,) and where the citi- | I Zens and b!fan.era may go to purchase the j,i trimmings and fancy articles, ordinarily to be ( found at such establishments. The profit upon i), I the sale of these staple articles will, it is he j Hj lieved, pay the expenses of the nianiigeinctit, t| and thus leave the sums accruing from the ' ai | sale of articles made and deposited by our own j{ people, to he delivered in tact. Now. could j.; uot the ladies of Spartanburg form a similar ' n associ it ion ? Could they not uuike up hats, j fr oollais, embroidery, &c ? Yes. and they would ; t| do so, if they were certain that the articles i j, niniln 1 it i.?. -i:? a -? .. 1 - v. ..v Ve think it highly probable. ; ,, I tliat arrangements could be made, to effect (i ; tbai object. First, :i home tore coulil be c?- i (| [ tnblishi-d here ? and we lutvo no doubt, that (| any one of our good merchants, wlio have been [ ^ much beuetitted by the shopping visits ot the I (| ladies, would readily grunt a suitable place "n their large mid bcautilul stores, for the sale ot ' u 1 i such articles as they may there deposit And J (j I we also believe, that the gallantry mid courte- j j, ?y so justly Httribuieu to them, would suggest J w ' au offer to the ladies to sell their articles tor ' I them w-ihout cost or expense. In the second j v 1 place, an arrangement might he made with the ! ,j I ladies of Columbia, to send their goods there j J( Ilo he disposed uf hy the Associatioti at that I aplace?should they not be ahle to seli all in ! , l! iS pari an burg. Ladies themselves, are much o better ahle to suit all the details of the sug j( gestioiis thrown out to their practical us. g than j ourselves \N e do beg that, should these crude )4 remarks l>e deemed tut racdcahle, they would s ouiy he attributed to a sincere ib-rirc, to aid I as tar as may be, in assisting tbeiu io achieve a competency by their own appropriate and j honorable industry. In the present distress i? ing and destitute condition ot our country, it ?< is painful to observe that, in the conduct of a d large portion of the secular I'rc.-s, litile alien tl tiou is given to the peculiar necessities, and c the uice tortus which is required ol ladies by n society, in the minute observance ot propriety ti and condescension to the wishes and feelings g of otheiB. If the ladies arc consulted iu a h proper manner, by proper persons, and proper ? im-asitres ure proposed, to aid and assist tlrcm | p o Mtpp >ri themselves or families comfortably. : ii ' t'icy Wout.l gladly embrace and ftitlitully per- | a form their part. Then let gentlemen wlu> j o are worthy oi ineir confidence, approach the ' h ! Lid.e- on tlrs subject, and tender their servi j t ee in cause, which would confer liwtior ami , g j d goiiy enough lor any man. i " a - - v < in*-n's Organization. , ?

So tliut all the Churches 'presented in the place, have shared in the uits of this good work. It is believed that its religious revival has been characterized y some unusually good and hopeful signs, lid that even its immediate results are not to e inferred from the mrrr numbers who have een added to the t'huroh. There has been tidoulited'y a very general and serious louglittnleess in regard to religious interests, nd. so marked has litis been, that some have ought they could observe it on visiting the lace, amid the ordinary business transactions ml the street scenes and incidents of every ay life.
