interesting FROM the nez percer indi ans, f
A? the close of a missionary sermon al I
the 3rd Presbyterian church in this city, on h
Sabbath last, the Rer. Mr. Armstrong gave I
a brief account of a powerful religious ex- v
"citement among these Indians at the mis. t
sion on Clear Water river, about 125 miles r
east of Fort Wallawalla. The revival !
commenced in December. The Rev. Mr. t
Spalding states that the principal chief,
C5 n irnod Joseph, gave evidence of a change f
of heart. A protracted meeting was held i
ubout the first of January. Mr. Spalding [
says. in a letter published in the Now Ilaven J ?
Record, 44 as the multitudes came from a I
distance, the work seemed lo increase. Jo. I
seph and others who were first converted,
labored !?eyor?d faithfully. Joseph eviden- 1
fly laboured beyond his strength. Dr. r
Whitman arrived h-re the lust of the week, i
and spent the first Monday in January with i
uk. This was a precious Hay to us all here, f
and sureiv it must havo beet) lo our Chris- j e
tiari friends ut home, for God had nnticipa^ e
ted their prayers according to Me words of t
the prophet, and the work of redeeming love 1
uv.s going on. while as yet thuy had not c
assembled in their respective congregations i
to pray f?>r dje speedy aud uuivenal 8jnwd ?
of the p< ople re urned to th<ir several noun- 1
tries on account of provis.ons, but in tuoj<
or three week a their places wme im?re ihan J
filled, by multitudes coining i , lo he in time i
lor the proposed meeting, nod or some time <
we h ?ve been driven from our meeting i
house. 42 fifd hy 22, into the open a r, ;
where we shall probably continue lo meet I
till late m the spring. Probably there are (
9()d() collected now to whom a disco irse *
is delivered every afternoon, and the inter- <
est w hich was MWakeiiodat t?if? forrn'T ineei- j
ing seems no way nba'ed. Probably 1000 f
have publicly confessed liieir sins and pled- 1
ped themselves to live for Jesus Christ. (
How many of these will prove genuine v\ ill |
!>e better known at another day. But five t
or six ofthe most promising will be admit- I
l.eif into the church at first; not but tliat i
God is able to convert a n.vion in a day, but
we d? ein it our duty to be cautious. The c
most interesting part of the proceedings v
among this people, is after they return to r
heir viliago from livening worship. Could t
you then take your stand in the midst of
tue village a short time, you would hear on c
one side a chief addressing some 40l> as ti
fi<?ml>l' d in a long lodge, going over with s
t i? discourses delivered ?t evenmg prayers a
?in wtother lodge in onothor direction, r
( lie voice of fervent prayer, in another sing- 1
ing, in another sore weeping, till you would t
number 8 or 10 places where the people c
were assembled for worslrp, and often you s
would hoar the voice of prayer all n'ght nt t
otneof th se places.?T??e objector might 1
say, it is all co .fusion. What is confusion ? c
T ike m". if you please, into any city of I
the Slams where there are collected within i
hearing, 8 or 10 assemblies, ail inquiring \
with deep solicitude what they sh til do to i
be s ived, and I will show yon more oonfu r
s;on Ciiiin you will wi.mss in the N< z Perces \
village. When this world shall begin to I
turn to (rod by whole nations in n day, the ?
bustle of cities the rush for wealth will hII j
sink into forget fulness, in tmmparison with [

Lckf. Manning whs horn on Saluda Riv
# or, in Newberry Dis'ric. Ho was the son C
of r?'spoc:able parents. Under his lather's ^
?ilL ho w?* entitled Ut. and rftw'iwj gin -<
t ue quite siifBri?f f**r n young iriun.- fli's '
education was a conunon good English n
nn??. *'
His outset in life, aler he hat^jrown up, >
was disgraced by the seduction of a neigh. '
bor's 'laughter. He then became a gamb. I
Tcr, and was occasionally intoxicated. When a
sober, he was at all periods of his life peacea- 2
He and inoffensive. In the course of a c
lew years, he established the character of
being often engaged in affrays, when drink c
tag. r
The first ins'ance of outrage com mil ted v
by him, and recollected by the wri er, oc. I
euro ! at a place called * Stoney Battery." v
it* a* l
He there slabbed, or RnocKeu a man down r
with a stone. The by standers, indignaiir <J
at his conduct, stoned him f >r some dis C
tnuce, until l?e was compelled to take refuge \
behind a tree :?lie was then kept ui bay f
until a pole was cut, and with it he knocked k
down, like boys knock a lifcard off" a tree, o
and threshed until ample vengeance was d
taken. h
He soon afterward< s?abbd Solomon t
Downing, on that, or some other occasion, d
said he carried M sharp articles," and on be. it
ing cautioned, as to the danger of using a fi

freed from the apprehension of 8eVs? pUU. u
iuhinent, under the prosecution lor s irtSZw, b
Downing, his sobriety and good condu% v
were universally remarked. The ending S
of that prosecution, and the imposition of a I
slight fine, in consequence of satisfaction t
being made to the person, and the good con r
duct of Manning at Camp Alston, and after f
his return from service, occufed in the fall i
of 1815. t
In a short time afterwards, his habits of J
sobriety and peace ended, and he became t
ttlmos' an Arab, in a Christian and civilized v
country. For often, very often, u his hand
was against every man, and every man's ?
hand against him." The writer remember* k
to have seen him and a man of the name s
of Harp, quarrelling in the village of New. n
berry. A fight would appear to be c^ur- h
ted by but rs soon a? I!ar?? would ! r

repare for the onset, the opened blade of
<uke's knife would be seen glittering in his
and. Harp would then pause, and gather
p a handful ofstones; instantly the knife
/ould be shut up and pocketed, and then
tie stones would be thrown down : the mo.
fient this was done, the cotoardly knife
rould be again flourished and then ugaiQ
he stones would be rcs'orcd 10.
On another occasion, he and a brother
;ambler quarrelled,?the latter was standrig
leaning his head against the post of ?
iazza : Luke, with his knife, aimed a blow
t the throat of his adversary, ho saw the
low and barley escaped , it too effect on
he post instead of his neck.
For some words of drunken insolence,
e w is once very properly siopp- d in the
rtouth, by a most respectable and amiable
nan ; in his fury, he staggered into the pizza
of the store where the affair occurcd,
eized a foot-adze, and Mas in the act of rentering
the store with it drawn over his
lioulJer to strike his antagonist, when a
arpenter standing behind him, seized and
aok it from him. He was then thrown out
if the house, and while lying on his back
[i the yard, a tumbler of water wns handed
J him?he drank the water, and with the
Tocity of a madman, bit a pipce out of the

nil ; Luke, as lie was called by way of
miioence, exclaimed,441 have been authorzed
over all day, and I w II see if I can't
itithorize some too," and knocked poor
Xrvidson sprawling into the s reet. in a
hw minutes afterward-, Luke was in a reail
s'ore, quarrelling with his old friend
Harp ; a figh- was ac;ain about to take
lace, Ids knile was again resorted to, and
een by the store keeper. To prevent
cuke's assassin purposes, he got over the
:ouiiter, slipped n shoe hammer out of
juk?-'s pocket, and with it struck him on
lie back of th* hand, until he dropped the
utile on the floor: he then threw him on
lis head in the yard. Tnis closed the day
?but Luke's 44 deeds w re evil, and loved
larkness rather ihrn I.glil." At night he
rus found stoning some p>or unoffending
egro' s. and for so doing, was literally pel.
jd beyond thevillag".
His next outbreak remembered, was a
runken sprey, as it is modestly called by
runken rowdys, riding along the road, he
aw an old Frenchman, Caesar Duval, a
tone mason by trad'), trudging along the
oad on foot, with his stone hammer in his

tie instigations of the devil," to wit, strong
rink, determined to ride over him. No
ooner thought, than away went Luke, at
ic top of his horse's speed, Hnd the old
frenchmen was in an instant prostrated un!er
the horse's feet. But as he fell, the
orse fell over him, and Black Luke, as the
IJ Frenchman us d familiarly to call him,
iras pi ched some tw'*ntg?a* tkirty ?+*a.

One of his drunken feas, the subject of
jdicial investigation, wns the causing and

d to pieces.
Another, exhibiting more th in the usual
rant of feeling in a ruffian, was, in her fnth.
r's own house, cutting with a knife, the
lotliesoffthebofiy of an unofiendingyounj?
;?rl.
q,v.p. i, A,, ,(cf orr-nce, real or

t the door of one of hi* b'?st friends, and
jvelling his rifle, said to him, Phil son
ours If out from your wife and bsbies, for
intend to land \ou in hell in a minnte."
i parley ensued, an ! Luke's attention was
ttracted to some other object, his rifle seied,
and with it lie was knocked down, and
ornpellcd to be peaceable.
In 1824, wiiliout any legal or moral ex.
use, he killed in Edgefield District, a man
f the name ofFouts, a report of the case
nil be found on the files of the Court of
Lppeals, Nov. 1824, at Columbia. He
.'as convicted of murder, and senu need 10
o hanged. At the instance of his worthy
nd amiable brother.in-law, the l ite Major
bin ton, he was pardoned by Governor
Vilson ? and on promises of reform, and
jfure good conduct, he was taken into the
onsH of his brothrrJnJnw, na a member
f his family. In a short time, 44 like the
og to his vomit, or the sow that is washed
> her wallowing in the mire," Luke re
j rued to the Grog-shop; and in a fit of
runkcn fury, in the absence of his brotheriJuw,
drove bis sister and h?T little ones
om their own home. This ended his resi*
once under his bro'herJnJaw's roof.
Soon arterwar<ls, at a Grog shopt kcp'
y an Irishman of the name of Kennedy,
i a drunken affray, he committed another
eed of blood. He and Kennedy were
landing face to %ce disputing : a noise atacted
Kennedy's atiention, !> urned his
ead,and Luke instantly stabbed liim strikig
with his kntfe on the corner of the jaw
one, and following it to the chin : in radiation
Kennedy repeatedly stabbed him,
ut not fatally, with a small sword, from a
alkingcane. For tins offence Luke was
Sd! and indicted in the action, the Jury
verdict of $1000 damages : under
he inoWqm,.nt },e was imprisoned 12
nonths ; "^damages he nevor paid. His
>revious cour^^f dissipation and crimo,
ad wasted his suni^npe, and he went from
he jail of i\Vwberr/Wjy/,w and almost
riendless. He passedSouth Carolina
> Alabama ; there killed d was conicted
of murder and hanged7\.
Thus perished n human being orhunrally

as with the aid of a hot sun, and extraordinary
dry season, . .are imparted maturity and firmness
of wood. Most of tho Trees aro planted in
chrqurrs 12 feet apart, each way, covering an
area of at least twenty acres.
All, therefore interested in the culture of Silk,
will have an opportunity of furnishing them,
selves, on the most advantageous terms. The
objoct of the Subscriber in offering his Trees at
this time, is to afford the purchaser an opportunity
of seeing the Trees as they are growing, or
as thoy have recently grown The sale will
therefore take place on the ground. The Trees
will be sold iu lots to suit the hum lest purchaser,
and on such conditions as will enable the
poor man (notwithstanding the sneers of certain
Editors atnong us,) to compete with the wealthy
man, who can bring a larger force into the field.

ted about two miles from Columbia, the Capital
of South Carolina, in a region of country called
the Sand-Hills The grounds comprehend be.
tweeu 5'JO and 600 acres. They are woll timbered,
(chiefly Pino and the second growth of
Oak.) About one half consists of what is term,
ed bottoms, rendered perfectly dry and tillable,
by ul least 6000 yards of ditching, most of which
measures 5 foot in width by 3 feet in depth.?
There are now, upwards of 70 acres of .ew
ground completely cleared and ditched, now
ready fo?- beipg broken up.
The Buildings are situated upon a high ridge
of Sand Hills, proverbial for health, insomuch
that the neighborhood affords a retreat for tuany
of the families of Columbia, during the Summer
months. It was on this account, that the site
was selected for the business, (a Female Board,
ing Schools to which the buildings have been
dedicated. The water is excellent, supplied by
two pumps ; besides which, there are two excel,
lent Springs.
The centre building is of Wood, well plaister.
ed, and neatly finishod throughout, measuring 54
feet square: three stories high; the upper
room or Attic story, being 15 feet io height.?
Beneath this building is an excellent Cellar
above ground. The wings attatched to the
centre building, are 100 feet oach in length, the
one 21 and the other 34 foet in width. The
Southern wing is of Brick, well plaisiered, two
sturies high, well finished throughout, having
an excellent Cellar above ground. The Nortlicn
wing, recently buiit, is of Wood, ceiled through*
out. It is Ihtee stories high, with an At.c
etory, equal in area, and superior in height to
the three lower stories. Tlio basement story of

wholo establishment, with the exception of the
Brick building, is warmed by Air Furnaces on
most improved plan, similar to that by which
Grace Church, and m ny public and private edi.
ficoR in Philadelphia, are warmed. The area of
all tho floors, in these buildings, is by measure,
ment, upwards of 100,000 square feet. On the
Inst.tute buildings is an Insurance of $15,000.
There ore also, at a small remove from the
buildings, two Resiliences, Cottage.built, noatly
finished; the one containing four and the other
two rooms. It is tinnecessarv to

When the intrinsic value and resources of tho
above establishment are Liken into considnration,
and when it is rocol'ected that Columbia will be
shortly connected with Charleston by a Rail
Roid, now in a vigorous state of progres.
sion ; when it is furthermore recollected that the
Rail Road is to connect the Se.i Bo ird with the
great North West, it may be said, the property
now offered for Sale, presents inducements to
