CHARLESTOVEf CETERA. | We have just returned from a flying visit to the Queen City of the South, and have scarcely time before our paper goes to press to say a word about what is go- i ing on in our far-famed metropolis.— Leaving Darlington on Thursday morn ing last, we dined in Charleston on the following day, having rested in Sumter- ville one night, and performed the jour ney to Charleston in a day and a half.— This would have been considered won derful a few years ago, but in this age of railroads and telegraphs nothing is incred ible, or even astonishing. Our principal 1 object in going ria Sumterville, was to see and ride upon the Wilmington and Manchester Railroad. It is now com pleted within two miles and a half of . Sumterville, and we were informed by Mr. Solomons, the Engineer in charge of that portion of the road, that the cars would be in Sumterville by the 20th or market, as three companies of fisher- men have their nets and boats ready and are unusually well prepared.— Georyelotm Observer. acts of ckifidence, they lose their sa- the Commissioners, together with their (•redness when the relation of creditor all other proceedings in the iseagerlv sought for purposes of thrift, CA86 * recorded, for which ser- . . . . f and more especially, if the inability to vi ^ 8 * ‘ ho s * id Cl «*' k * h « 11 > * ver ' w «e without change, rang,ng from meet their demands is the result of ac- 1 to r f« eivol,ke ma " ,,er . the ^ 110 ^—Standnrd lZth ^t. cident or ill fortune.

BUSINESS GARBS. -South Carolina Conference.— The recent session of this Conference presented in its proceedings the most gratifying information of the prosperity and welfare of the Church within its borders. We notice that six additional preachers were admitted. The statis tics of the Conference show an increase We have received a tribute of ment, we return our sincere thanks— respect, to the memory of Dr. W. E. Dar- while it is a source of profit to us, we are ran, from the Ebenezer Baptist Church, ! sure that the benefits will be reciprocal. which will appear in our next. ELECTION. The following is the result of the elec tion for Clerk and Ordinary for Darlington District. The vote was a small one, there by such a humane provision as will at j o( - j white members during the past h a *f tl* e "umber polled at the least afford the improvident or unfor- . , ,e A,; ! c |., c H..,..;,,,, for n.om^rs to a Southern to lay Ids head* tunate a place —a shelter to protect his family | from houseless pmuny. When cred- J itors get all the rest, the hearth stone should he left for charity sake. 'Pile Jewish legislator evinced the sn- credness with which the spot of eartli allotted to the homestead was regard ed, by providing a day of jubilee when | the laud should again he restored to its original possessor. Here, where a wilderness of land invites population, it becomes a matter of policy to hold out inducements to settlers, by giving them an exemption from the danger of being compelled to begin their wanderings anew. It will add to the attachment w ith which a citizen regards his home, that it is sa cred from the claims of all hut his own household. Yet the holy purposes which this exemption is intended to accomplish, requires that it should l>e so guarded as not to he perverted to schemes of fraud. A limit to the value of the home stead and adjacent land, to Ire estima ted by some public ollicer, seems in dispensable, and can he fixed by the legislature. It is ditHcult to fix any such limit to the often costly struc tures of a city home, and this conside ration has led to the confining the con templated exemption to our agricultu ral population at present. The reports from the Missions late election for members to a Southern cendy married Miss Pickens, of Alabama, .1 . - r i ..m,, I ... ... We saw on the register at the Charleston Hotel the name of our representative in Congress, the Hon. Jso. McQuef.n, and his lady, who were en route for Washing ton. A press of business and our short stay deprived us of the pleasure of see ing him, but we learned that he had re- within the Conference showed thdlr | Congress, condition to l>e highly encouraging, : evidenced by the factof a large increase i in the colored membership. Several ' new missions were recommended to he established. This Conference, long at the head of all others in the amount of its mission ary contributions, lias excelled itself the past year, the returns show ing that (Tver eighteen thousand dollars were - contributed for the purpose, and that notw ithstanding a large and valuable portion of the territorial jurisdiction of the Conference, including W ilmingtou and Fayetteville, N. C. had been cut off at the proceeding Animal Confer- . ence. No Conference, North or South, j has ever reached such an amount for missionary purposes. The Conference has over twenty missionaries among the colored population, two in China, and have now ap|>ointed two for Cali fornia. The immense fund annually contri buted in the Conference to the support . of missions, show s not only that the ministry and the church are indefatign hie, hut also that the planters and the community feel a deep interest in the religious education of the slaves. The philanthrapy of Abolition and Freesoil- ism never exhibited itself in this mode; ! hut rather works to destroy the influ- ence of these trusted and faithful men These are in the service of For Ordinary.

Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives, now met and sitting in General Assembly, and hy the authority of the same, That the following proiierty in addition to that now exempted by Law, to wit: to each family the dwelling house, and household appurtenant thereto, to gether with fifty acres of land, and al- so one horse and twenty-five dollars worth of provisions, he and the same are hereby exempted from levy and sale, under fieri facias and assignment under mesne or final process: Provided, that the said exemption shall not in clude, or extend to any projierty situ ate within tlie limits of any city or cor porate town of the State. And pro vided further, that the value of said r ment of another master, as their laliors, if successful, would degrade the slave, and lead him into crimes which would consign him to ignominy and shame here, and to everlasting destruction hereafter.

We invite the earnest attention of our readers to the advertisement of the Com missioners of this road at Cheraw, in an other place. Wo referred to this subject at some length in our columsatew weeks since, and endeavored to urge upon the Peedee people the importance and neces sity of building this road at an early pe riod. We are happy to see that the com missioners in Cheraw have made a move n the matter, and hope that those com missioners at each of the places named will second the motion, and move for ward harmoniously and triumphantly to the successful completion of the enter prise. Nothing is so difficult in any un dertaking as the beginning, but the mind once made up to accomplish an object the work is more than half done.— Let every citizen in the districts of Ches terfield, Marlboro, Darlington, Marion, and Sumter, who has ability and feels an interest in the advancement of his di*-, trict in (he inarch of civilization, put his shoulder to the wheel, and the work is done.

Patriotism as well as self Interest calls upon you to act, aud to act ’ a grand-daughter of General Pickens of revolutionary memory. We formed the acquaintance of the distinguished histo rian and novelist, W. Gilmore Sims, whose gifted pen has contributed so much towards elevating the standard of •Southern literature. We had formed an idea of the personal ap|>eataiice of Mr. Sims, but were never more deceived. In* stead of the pale, thoughtful, meditative student which our imagination had pic tured him, we fonnd him a tall, portly, fine-looking gentleman o£ highly sanguine temperament, who combines all the vi vacity of boyhood with tlie more mature wisdom of middle life. Of tlie editorial fraternity, we saw Mr. W. C. Richards. of the Southern Literary Gazette, whose whose paper, just entering the fifth vol ume, has been converted into pamphlet form. It is published weekly, by Walk er Si Richards, w ith semi-monthly sup* plements, at $3 per aunum. We have not heretofore had the pleasure of ex- ! changing with Gazette, but have fre- ! quently seen highly complimentary no- I tices of it in other papers, and from the ! number before us, the first of the new I series, have no doubt they were merited. Among the sights in the city were Powers’ ! Greek Slave, and Waugh’s panorama of i Italy. The former is the most exquisite and chaste specimen of sculpture that we recollect to have seen—and is said to be Powers’s master piece. The tour of It aly is a grand and sublime work of art, affording to the beholder a cheap and expeditious trip through that classic land. As the cities of Milan, Verona, Venice, Genoa, Florence, Naples, and the seven hilled capital of the Roman Empire, the enchanted Lake of Como by moonlight, a storm in the Mediterranean, the ruins of Pompei and Herculaneum, and the eruption of Mt. Vesuvius passed us in rapid review, we felt almost translated to that soft and sunny clime Where the virgins are soft a* the roses Uiey twine, And all save the spirit of man is divine.” We were hospitably entertained by Messrs. Lamkin Sl Hurst, of the Planter’s Hotel, whom we take occasion again to recommend to all of our country friends who like comfortable quarters, good Ihre, polite landlords and attentive servants.
