The Sixty-eight anniversary of American independence,
was celebrated by the citizens of tho
oci ghborhood of William Woffbrd, near'to Glenn
Springs. The WofTord Light Infantry Corps, cornmandei^.
by Capt. Jasper West, attended by the
fine band of music from Union Court House, com
mauded by Capt. Gad Clark, very patriotically
turned out, and after a handsome drill, displaying
considerable military spirit highly creditable to
theofticers und soldiers of that famous corps, were
marched in procession, to a grove, where they
were joined by a lurgo number of citizens from
Union and Spartanburg Districts, who joined the
procession, uud marched toaatand which had been
erected for the occasion, when, by request Muster
F. P. Bogun, a student of Mr. J. \V. James Seminary,
read the Declaration of Independence. After
which Col. R. J. Gage, the Orator of the Day,
delivered an excellent Oration, which was received
with great oppluuse. He, in a very forcible manner,
brought to view the spirit of the Revolution?
its causo and ttr? tracctrs*?-contrasted rtic cireracirr
of the revolutionary patriot with the men of our
times?advocated the Annexation of Texas to the
Union, nnd in a very happy manner, brought for
ward the subject of Oar Free School System, discussed
its merits, showed the necessity of reform,
and the vast importance of general education in
supporting our free institutions: After the applause
had subsided, the following regular toasts, handed
in by J.\V. James, Chairman of the Committee:
The toasts were read from the stand, and received
with great enthusiasm, and firing of artillery and
martial music.
VOLUNTEER TOASTS.
By Capt. Thos. Gist: The Wvjford Light Infantry?
Brave, patriotic and intelligent; ever ready
to defend their rights as citizen soldiers.
Capt. T. J. West: Let us have Texas, even
should John Q,. Adams, quit the Union; for who
loves not his friends in his house better than his
foes.
J. W. James: The Ofator of the Day?By his
address he has evinced the scholar and patriot:,
may he be a member of the coming legislature.
Dr. J. Winsmith: The Missouri Compromise?
a violation of the spirit of the Constitution, the sacrifice
of Southern rights to the foul spirit of fanaticism.
Berry James: The Day we celebrate?May we
ever preserve unimpaired the liberties bequeathed
us by a noble ancestry.
B. Stovall: (A revolutionary patriot) May we
live to see the day when the virtuous free shall
stamp the impious nutne of kinsrs into the duar.
Wm. Wrist: This is leup year; God bless the
pretty girls; 1 wish they would do their duty or
give up their prerogative.
J. 1VX Wallace: Copt. Jasper West?The namesake
of our honored and lamented Sergeant Jasper
who planted the Hag on Fort Moultrie utter it
had been shot away in the thickest of the fight, and
was killed at Sivannah, hravely defending the Hag
which the ladies of Charleston had presented him
with for his gallantry on that occasion.
John Gibbs Esq: Annexntiots?State Rights
and Fj ee Trado-should be tho voice of every
.Southern ^

the American Eagle wheresoever the people
of South Carolina desert her.
IX Qaudelock: John Ti/lcr?In the honesty of
his heart ho prefers the interests of his country to
that of his party.
Solomon West, of West's Springs: What * pity
John Tyler should not retain the presidential chair
another term, for he is in my opinion preferable to
C la y or Polk.
Wm. H. Gist: South. Carolina and her institution*?She
is dearer to us than all lands besides
it tad he who would not lay down his life in her defence
is no patriot.
F. P. Bogan: George Washington?Tho brightest

enemies.
After the foregoing sentiments were delivered,
the chairman of the meeting (J. W. James) called
on Col. J. M. Wallace for an address, who very
promptly arose and ably discussed some of the exciting
topics of the day. W. H. Gist, D. G.iudelock
nnd John Gibbs, candidates for the legislature
from Union were then successively called on
by the meeting, who all responded to the cull and
very briefly addressed the company, giving in their
adherence to the Annexation of Texas; I)r. John
Winsmith was then called on, who made an address,
to the people, quite j>ertinent, which was
warmly received by tno company. Mr, J. W.
Jnmoa was then called (of. who complied by ma-,
king a few patriotic remarks, and closed by informing
the company thut dinner was ready. A
fine dinner prepared by Mr. Woffbrd, had ample
justice done to it. and the company dispersed without
any occurrence to disturb tho harmony of the
occasion. *
REGULAR TOASTS.
1st. The day we celebrate to Liberty: May it be
ever cherished by freemen.
2nd. George Washington as a General a Statesman
and a Patriot, in the annals of munkind he has
nnl anv i in I?n? Iniitr n<* hl.q aprvir-p-i app rlinriali.
ed in die memories ol his countrvnien, the Union
is safe.
3rd. Thomtts Jefferson?his transcendent tab
ents, and powerful administrative hand, gave out
government a proper direction?from this it has
departed?-may our next President restore it.
4th. The Sovrtign States of this Confederacy?
The constitution as administered by Jefferson
frUghsawi he the. indestructible bond of their mmm
?a most solemn compact?it hns beon violated?
it is now totally disregarded and if it continues
disregarded any longer a (leacoful dissolution ol
the States is expedient and infinitely more than
constitutional.
5th. John C. Calhoun?No man has done more
for the confederacy?no man's services have beer
less requited?in the maltreatment of this the
greatest statesman of tho age?tho truest and a>
blest expounder of tho constitution?let the SoutL
read her destiny.
6th. Andreio Jackson?r?s tho Hero of Orlcani
for a half century he protected our Sailors' right!
?when Chief Magistrate he regulated the currcn
< '#
m
cy, and as a dying bequest hp say* "take Texas
into the Union." Lot his advice be followed
peaceably if wp can?forcibly if wo,must.
7th. jCVxm l$o?t ingloriously treated away by
the Red capped Bully of Atnefkun Ethiopia?
Tbe blusieriugO'Connttllof this ill-fated republic?
Her re annexation is no southern question hut a
great American question which ant*.involved the
|>eace and permanent independence of this Counpowers
entitle them to our lasting gratitude.
9tb. The patience and efficiency of our Delegation
in tlie two Houses of Congress have secured
I to themselves our abiding confidence?we are
waiting: for them to luv before 11* an pi
our present position in the confederacy, then in regard
to tariff and other unconstitutional measures,
we are rendy for the Slute to redeem her pledges
of'41 and '42.
10th. George McDuffie?the Orator scholar and
(mtriot statesman?the signs of the times point to
tim to be our next Governor.
11th. Let the Palmetto Stute ns soon as practicable
be converted into a military camp.
12th. The Tariff-?Its years are numbered: but
it cannot be known at present whether it will be
crushed by the power of democracy or State action.
13th. The Northern Manufacturers would fire
the Sabine as the boundary of the cotton region
thereby cheapening slave labor in the south and
establishing a pauper population at home. England
would desLrpy-thH.lTiiu?n_/*jinv???-*of
the Mississippi and her tributaries into her granary,
she would have Texas to supply her with
the raw materiul and she to lioth Ih-cdiiio a store
house upon the terms of her own dictation: the ud1
mission of Texas will defeut both of these unholy
projects.
1 ith. A Conventional Nashville, this is the first
I legitimate step to save the union.
15th. Let every man deprecate the disruption
i 01 tne union, but at the same time prepare well
for it, for it will come unless our rights arc respected,
the Tariff* abandoned, Texas admitted and
the Constitution administered in its purity.
16th. The Fair Sex?Our ornament in peace,
our greatest care in war, in peace their good treatment
the mark of the highest refinement, in wat
we will shed the lost drop of blood to protect
them.
PROM THE YOUNG HICKORY.
GREAT BRITAIN, FRANCE, AND THE
UNITED STATES.
Mr. Walsh, the European correspondent of the
National Intelligencer, in his letter of the 31st
May, published in its last Saturday's papei, gives
an account of a "vehement discussion'' in the
Chamber of Deputies, "on the old questions of
French policy and measures with Buenos Ayres,
, Montevideo, Tahiti, &c." He says, "M. Guiz->t
expatiated on the magnificence of the spectaclt
afforded by the friendly ami accommodating relations
of Great Britain and France?"each jntrsuing
its own special interests and ends : aggrandizing
itself wherever deemed practicable or convenient,
without risk of collision, with mutual assent ana
good icill." The loiter words, which we hove ita
licizcd, are marked as a quotation.
Many of our statesmen were surprised at learnng,
when the treaty annexing Texas to the Union
was negotiated, that the French Minister was opposed
to it. They had supposed that the old ant
nutural jealousy of British power, on the part ol
France, would have placed her with the United
: e - " " '

foM to Account1 fbrtins sudden change 61" policy,
by which France was to become tlie ally of Great
Britain in extending her power over weaker na
tions. This open declaration of the Prime Minis
terof France, in the Chamber of Deputies, whicl
we have quoted above, explains the change of po
licy. It seems now, that there is a mutual under
standing "and good-iciU" between these two grea'
nations; that "each is to pursue its own spcciu
interests and ends, aggrandizing itself wherevei
deemed practical and convenient."
In conformity with this arrangement, Frnnct
seizes Algeria, Tahiti, &c., and, we sutipose, Hay
ti will soon fall beneath her guns, and Engluut
moves in the Fast, and on Texas; and, we per
ceive, has ordered a fleet on the coast of Japan
to survey its harbors and bays, doubtless with i
view of preparing the way for a seizure of tha
rich island, as soon as "practicable and conve
nient." There is a proclaimed and regular com
bination between these two great powers, to ah
each other in "aggrandizing" themselves by tin
conquest of weaker nations. It has hitherto actei
on the burltaruus ami imbecile people ?>f Asm
Africa, or South America ; but now, this "magni
licence of the spectacle" comes on to ernbrac*

whatever the form may he, practically seize Tex
as in "aggrandizing" herself, under the pretex
of some son of imaginary right she possesses t<
the waters of the Gulf which we may appro
priate. If we imitated France ami herself, \vi
would give them a splendid specimen of a "mag
nificent spectacle," bv stretching our power a
once over Mexico and California, by the sword
and this is hy no means an improbable result, i
they push upon us their measures of interference
