On Sunday morning next, so far ss we are informed, onr Methodist and Episco pal churches, will bc open for divine ser vice. Or at least the first regular appoint ment of the new pastor, the Rev. J. A. Mood, falls on that day. Under the present stress nf bad weather, however, ol' course it is doubtful whether Mr. J Mood can reach Fdgefield or not. And on next Sunday too falls Mr. Leard's first appointment in Graniteville. The be loved old gentleman and his family are still among us, though, and we hope they will not attempt a move under present circumstances. Mn ch Better.

The Stewards of tho Edgefield Circuit are requested to meet at the Methodist parsonage on Monday, 10th inst., at 10 o'clock, A. M. Salesday. On Monday last, although flint rock ice covered the earth? imperilling the limbs of horse and man, a considerable num ber of e:tizens from the country made their way into town. And the crowd of r.etrrors was actually large. The land sales were few and unimportant ; and the unprecedented cold made up the engross ing topi? of conversation. Attention, Edgefield Rifles?

Death of Miss Maggie Padgett We regret to learn of the death of Mag- j gie. daughter of Mr. Tillman D. Padgett, j wi ich *ad event occurred on Wednps- j da\ morning at. the home of her parents | near Elmwood, in this county. The j Cause ni her death was typhoid fever. She was a lovely girl of about seventeen summers, and only those who have ex perienced a like affliction can realize the sorrow of the stricken pa nts. To tell them that they have our sympathy is but poor coiis"la'ir>n. The hushed voice, the vacant chair, their crushed hopes and almost broken hearts, constantly remind them that their darling is gone.

We congratulate them "Willoughby Reade. This accomplished artist and genial gentleman has given two readings in Edgefield within the past week, and bas so delighted our entire community that the smallest and dullest of us would risa up and shed blood for him. A Beautiful Deed. Our young friend and fellow citizen Mr. Alvin Hart, has prove?! himself more than once to be a man of very noble and benevolent instincts, and his late Christ mas present lo our Baptist Church only adds another to the already long list of beautiful deeds that grace his youthful career. This was four large, lovely and elaborate hanging lamps of a pattern now very popular and fashionable. And as these lamps cast their brilliant but yet mellowed light upon all around and be low, they shed a two-fold blessing-upon bim that }.*!ves and rpon him that takes. But greater upon him that gives, for it is more blessed to givo titan to receive. A Double Compliment. Capt.

They are young and strong, moraby, intellectually, pro fessjonally. and we arc mistaken if Edge field County does not give them a large and honorable patronage. Whiskey at Johnston ! The M-rndor of tho 30th says: "We suppose, from information we have re ceived, that there was not lesa than seven or eight hundred dollars spent in tills town last Friday, for whiskey alone.'

John M- Clark's Sons. A bright feat tu e of our late cold a gloomy salesday was the presence arno us of one of John M.

STOCK-LAW SECTION, 1 EDGFFJEI.D, Cp. i MESSRS. EDITORS, The planters and fanners of this section are very much elated over their late victory in beating the anti Stock Law men. The Law was passed by a recent act of the Legislature. They sent a petition to the General As sembly requesting them to pass it, as rail timber was getting very scarce, and or. I some placo? quite exhausted. It is al? most impossible now to get negroes (o split rails, even at the moat exorbitant prices. I Toe task waa formerly, one hundred and twenty-five to one hundred and fifty per day ; now, however, it id hard to get j regular wages bands to split ever lifty j rails per day. A counter petition was j gol len ap against thc Stock Law, by a few men who wanted to raise stock on their neighbors'land and cultivate their] own. It wo s signed mostly by negroes, and by several persons diving outside of] ide line. Thc Senator from Edgefield fought very hard against this Stock Law Bill. The people cannot assign any cause for the Senators Opposition, unless he is afraid cf j snakes (as he is a soc of Erin) and that \ by preventing hogs from running at large, snakes will become too numerous, as the hog is an enemy to the snake. "A sound argument against it !" We have had no representation from this pa:-} ol tue County since the war; we have voled, and that is all. A great many who oppose the Stock Law, know that Gen. Gary's figures are line, that it takes ten dollars worth of fence to keep ont one dollar's woi i h of slock; but they want their neighbor .to expend the ten dollars, to fence out Ihr-ir one dollar's worth of | stock. The farmers living along the line of j Abbeville have seen it thoroughly tested for two years, and have had a good op. po*.(unity to judge for themselves. They pr^lVr i he Stock Law to the old s/etcm of fencing crops. What belter evidences would the people of the lower and mid* die part" of the county have that the Siock Law is a great benefit and biessing to any country. Respectfully yours, STRAIGHT-OCT STOCK LAW. - - -- ,. The fovrpess Cenlennia!-Revo Inifonary Memories, The arrangements making by pa tiiotic citizens of Soaih Carolina to celebrate tile centennial anniversary of the battle of the Cowpens, on thc 17th of Jaiiinry nest, and to erect a commemorative monument on the battlefield, with inscriptions fnrnish i-t] on behalf of all the other States composing the "old thirteen," must bo regarded willi gratified interest and sympathy as extensive as the na? iio:i. The presence of citizens of other States is invited, and the call seems generally responded to with cordial alacrity. South Carolina makes herself the hostess of all who will j visit lier io sympathy with the s?reat ! nhj??.f; and all who nhail attend will undoubtedly ever after bear witness ! to ino cordiality and c urtesy of j Southern hospitality. The battle of the Cowpens was the most brilliant cavalry combat of the Revolutionary war, and as is observed ?a the excellent letter of 0 car de Lv ffyctte, in response to the letter of invitation from the Committee of Ar rangements to attend the celebration, the idea of euch a celebration has bean happily inspired, "and, inas mu'.-h as this contest prepared the glorious victory of Yorktown, we Should confider it as un event of great importance." II has, however, a mo3t peculiar importance at thc present time, as an indication of returning love for revo lutionary t lories, and the fUg they have made illustrious, which glad dens the hearts of Northern patriots. Here, as always, patriotism is the highest policy. If we would unite Rp.d prosper, let us cherish the mem ories which tend to unite us, and not rhose which tend to dissever. The record of the South during the J evolution was bright and spot less, as all must agree. There was no nisunion then. The swoid of Mor gan flashed a< bright at Saratoga as ?<< the Cowpens. Nor WHS it on the field of battfe i.one that Southern capacity and pa triotism were displayed.
