:It?JJ yi? * Though I should not bo willing to rein* any guar*? on its safety and faithfulness, more than on any other public trust, but would throw onore guards around it, if more were necessary, I feel every dispost itldn iu favor of its present and long continued future existence. To 4he 'second jnterogntory " Are you in i favor of giving the vote for Presidential Electors directly to the people," ho a lya : In answer yes,?and for various reasons; one or two only of whiqh I will give.? Thirty States of the thirty-one now in the American Union, pursue that plan. It is more in the spirit of republicanism to give each voter an equal weight in tbe election. And what can be done as well directly is better than if done indirectly. That tho principal is above the agent, and that there is no use or an nm-nt to nor form an act that it is as easy for the principal to perform. More than either of these as a reason for u?, however, that since the election for electors must be held throughout the Union on the same day, and that a day when for our State to vote at all, an extra session of the Legislature must convene, at much inconvenience to the members and expense to the tax-payers the change should la- made. We should assume it as our rightful privilege, and voto as the people of the other States vote, free of expense, and with a knowl edge of who wo are voting for, and what principles we are sustaining. In reply to the third?" Are you in fuvor of improving the system of Free Schools.'* Mr. Ro8sor replies that he is, but does not * suggest any plan for the accomplishment of this purpose. We cannot drop this matter without saying we believe from a personal acquaintance with Mr. Rosser, and knowing the landable ? spirit he has always exhibited for all measures concerning tho welfare of Camden, and Kershaw District, that if elected he will prove a useful and faithful representative. fy The Editor of tho Carolina YVutchraan, published at Salisbury, N.C., in speaking of two new papers shortly to appear in that town, makes the following observation, The "Jubilee," which will probably make its appearance about the same time, has greater encouragement to hope, and less cause to fear, the political tendencies of the day seeming to favor its success.? Nevertheless, we should l?e sorry to Ih>lieve that friend Long, oxen, was indulging dreams of a splendid and speedy fortune, with all the luxuries and ease of such an estate, as the fruits of his editorial career. Our experience is, that a country editor is happiest when his hopes are bounded by the fencing of a small vegetable garden", and his expectations rise not ab >vc beans and potatoes. W< do not much believe in building castles in the air, but did our expectations be eon fin d to the narrow compass of a bean and potatoe patch, our aspirations, we feci, xvould not be more elevated than those animals who so delight to grub in pcr.unbuLt ing s'M patch.-a. Z[- .'5'. Fur the I*edoek. Mr. Editor:?As we liave heard it insinuated that our late Representative T. K. Curkton, Esq., did "little or nothing" during his term ot* service in the legislature, we think it nothing more than simply ,/?*/ tliat the following brief but full testimony of u disinterested witness at the seat of Government itself, should be laid before his constituents. % The "Palmetto Banner," in noticing Mr. ClkIlTon's reply to "many voters" makes the following remarks which please republish in the Ltdytr as it come from one totally disinterested. FAIR PLAY* cait. t. k. curkton. The Ixtncaster Ltdijer of the 25th inst., contains a letter from this gentleman in answer to some questions, the character of which was indicated in u recent number of our paper. CapL Curoton was elected to the last Legislature, in which he made a faithful ana useful member. nr. 1 * - - * ^ nv copy iiihi portion 01 tiinu Cureton's Utter, in which he treats of the election of Electors* and the Presidency.

The new Postmaster General will take the management of his Department on the 12th or 13th. Some alarm lias been created again by rumors of anti-Cuba movements in the " United States. The order of the I?ne Star, it is said, embraces a number of j>crsons in the principal cities, who are * promoting with secrecy and vigor, a plan ' lii.! I -t I..,!.. A .1 II m aiu ui h revolution in uic isinnu. i iiese rum or* are said, on tho other hand, to ' have been got up by Spanish spies, and rfor the purpose of ingratiating themselves with the Spanish authorities. Hut certain it is, that the Spanish Minister here, always vory.vigilant, has, of late, been roach agitated by these accounts, and has > made strong representations to this Government concerning them. The Government has, accordingly, given orders for strict caution for the prevention of the organisation of military expeditionaaganst Cuba. But the fact is, that no movements tgftgainH Cnba, are now in preparation or oonUsmpf&tfon in this country. The rumor of such a movement has reached Cuba, and has, no do*!*, aggravated the usdtl . " severity or Uie Cuban Government. The iatnprtance of the late movuinenta in Cuba, ban ho doubt, been greatly exaggerated, k and evdtf tjko fif**|. i|? r that MkUIBtd M mt ^*lHwM8HHH('r the j>e pie, is retorted P a* a foebt**iTt?ir. The time w not distant accordiog to former ex periprinciple and fact, on which ^4g3r an foondcd.Cnba mast cea?c to bo a dependency on the Spanish crown. Whether Spain will anticipate the necessity which as is well know to ler Government, must, compel her at some day, to relinquish Cuba, by selling it to the United States, Is quite an interesting question. The general opinion is, that if approached now on the subject, Spain would reject, even a hundred or two hundred millions. I have no doubt, that under the next administration, the offer will be made, and pressed as an alternative to the further prosecution of revolutiona y projects, and, |H>rhape, to consequent war l>etween the United States and Spain. No prudence, on the part of the Executive Government of the United States, can prevent the occurence of events that will hazard the peace of the two nations, in case of a serious uprising in Cuba, and nf Rvmnmlioii/i o ? ? V ?l *-* *movemets on the part of American Filibusters. A good deal of excitement was created among our people by the fate of the last Lopez expedition,and the Executive Government did not escape much censure for admitiug the right of the Spanish Govorment to put American invaders to death, Among the items in the general appropriation bill is seventy-five thousand dollars for the purchase of books for the Congress library, in addition to the sums heretofore appropriated. This is as large a sum as can bejudiciously expended in one year in purchasing books. After a few years, the new Library will be so far complete as to leave us much less regret at the loss of the old one. The new Library edifice, now in progress, will also be a great improvement upon the old one in extent, connnodiousness and clegence. The Libraries of the Treasury, State, War, and Patent officers have been also much increased in extent and value, during the last year or two, and further appropriations are now made to purchase works necessary for them. a ? utatr, or rAt'l is worm apoUtUl of theory: and the swarm of conclusive facts that cluster round that ipcomnaruhle preparation, Iloofland's German hitters, prepared by Dr. C. M. Jackson, l'hiladelplia, establishing its value as a tot.ic and restorative, are such as would prevent incredulity itself from quetioning its efficacy. In all cases of disease of stomach, whether acute or chronic, it may l?e recommended for its soothing, cordial, and renovating influence. Dyspepsia, heartburn, loss of appetite, nausea, nervous tremors, relaxation, debility, ifcc, are relieved, by the hitters in a very short space of time: and a perseverance in their use never fails to work a thorough cure. 2.

This is truly a wonderful remedy for indegestion, Dyspepsia, Jaui.dice, Liver Complaint, Constipation and Debility, curing after Nature's own agent. the Gastric Juice. Half a toaspooufui of Pepsin, infused in water, will digest or desolvc Fivo Pounds of Roast Beef, in about two hours, out of the stomach. Pepsin is the chief element, or Great Digesting Principle of the Gastric Juice?tho Solvent of the food, the Purifying, Preserving and stimulating agent of the stomach and intestines. It is extracted from the digestive stomach of the ox, thus forming an artificial digestive fluid, precisely like the. natural Gastric Juice in its Chemical powers, and furnishing a complete and perfect substitute, for it. By the aid of this preparation, the pains and evils of Indigestion and Dyspepsia are removed, just as they would he by a healthy stomach. It is doing wonders for Dyspeptics, curing cases of Debility, Emaciation, Nervous Decline, and Dispeptic Consumption, supposed to he on the verge of .' ? the grave. The scientific evidence upon which it is based, is in the highest degree curious and remarkable. S CI EXT I VIC EI rID EXCE.
