As a oonsequeno? of thee? dta turban c?a, look u im nonunion 01 oar neignneriug County of Laurens, whose toil U rich and fertile, and whoso eltlaoM art nature's noblemen. The following noeewnt of the coasequenaes of the recent raid to Laurwns is glTon by the Htmld, of the 12th: " As one of the effects of the late raid Into oar County, we have heard of an instanoe, no less true than amusing, of a oitisen actually plowing with a saddle on his horse, and the fence thrown down In several places, ready at any moment to cut and run. WhUe this may be funny to the raiders, and ever laughable to us, it is nevertheless a premonition of death to the country. Nor is it surprising that eitisens should stand thus ready to decamp, when indiscriminate arrests have been made?without warrants, and on the most flimsy and unreliable testimony?on the mere aflldavit of a negro who has been absent from the County since 1869, and not here at the time the alleged violence was committed ; warrants changed by deputies to serve their purposes, from one name to another, and unsuspeotlng persons, conscious of their own innocence, seised and summarily thrown into prison. Does Chief Marshal Wallack sanction such conduct in his deputies ? Surely not. Is there no redress?is there no help for a people thus persecuted and Oppressed ? 0 Itmpora ! O more* ! " It is confidently believed that not less than 500 eitisens have fled the County, and possibly the State. Onr agricultural interests nre desperately suffering, and if the present procedure in arresting does not cease at once, we are a ruined people. Just think of it? 500 plows, at this season of the year, stopped and rusting in the mold ! Who are to make bread for the women and children ? how are thoy to live, it tho men, their natural protectore, are all driven away ? And how, too, are the negroes to subsist without the aid of the white man, dependent, as they are, upon the land owner for soil to work, stock implements, indeed, sverytbing with which to carry on a farm? Without the fruits of the^arth, we must all perish, and it follows, as a matter of course, that as the white suffers, so must the negro. What possible advantage, then, can accrue to our oppressors by this oppression ? Do they seek utter annihilation?our utter destruction, full, final and complete? It really seems so. " Whoever may be respcncible for violence, let the guilty ones "be caught and punished as their crimes may require : but must the innocent atone for the guilty ? must wholo communities be suspected and made to suffer for the misdeeds of a few ? Such theory and such practice is absurd in an enlightened age and suited only for the darkest ages of the world." Greenville as Viewed by Her Neighbors. The Editor of the Spartanburg Spartan recently passed through this City, and upon his return home thus speaks ot Greenville. After complimenting the Mansion Ilouse, he says : " Greenville is a beautiful and a real live city, and we only wish that tho people of our own town could be induced to show something of the local pride and public spirit which has built up and beautified and made Greenville the most attractive point in the up-country.? We found quite a number of new buildings erected since our last visit, and learned that real estate had greatly advanced. Our friend Hamlin Bkattik, Esq., President of the National Bank of Greenville, (the right man in tbe right place) informed us that this institution was now in complete operation with bright prospects for the future. If it does not prove a complete success it will not be for any lack of skill or efficiency in the management of its worthy President. Among tbe many friends who gave ua a warm greeting, none seemed more pleased to see us than the enterprising and spirited Editor of the Mountaineer, T. A. Baydkh, Esq. He is a splendid typo, has first rate ability, and deserves success." Ordination at tbe Baptist Church. There was quite a full house in attendance upon the ordination services oi Rev. Edwin C. Rice, on Sunday night last, at the Baptist Church. The sermon was preached by Rev. "William Williams, P. D., of the Theological Seminary, whose suitable remarks to the occasion were ably practical and plain, from which the audience and the candidate for the ministry, alike, could not fail to realize much benefit. After the sermon and other usual ceremonies, the laying on of hands of the presbytery took place, and Mr. Rice was solemnly set apait to the vrork of the gospel ministry of the Baptist Church, in whieh Dr. J. C Fuhman, Dr. J A. Bboadub. Da. Wm. Williams. Prof. C. H. Toy and Re*. A. Ricv, took part. After the rising up of the presbjtcry, a few remarks and some excellent advice was ad dressed to the newly-ordained minister by Rev. A. Rice. The ceremooiea were exceedingly solemn and interesting. Mr. Rice will continue his studies at the Theological Seminary in this plaee, for the balance of this year. lie has, we learn, been chosen pastor of the Baptist Chnrch at Belton, in Anderson County, which position he will supply. llis friends antioi pate much usefulness for him. ? ? ?

This Company paraded through our streets last Friday evening, in their uniform of red shirts and fire paraphanalia, and truly looked like firemen. Their roll, we believe, at preaent i? pretty full, and they presented quite an imposing appearance as they marched along. In all our numerous firee here lately, they have on every occasion been prompt to time, and the manner in which th-y work their engine never fails to meet with approbation. On the turnout last Friday, the Palmettoes were accompanied by the colored braes band, led by Mr. Dot'anKRTT, which discoursed some good muiio. Messrs. Wm. Boattle A Co.

" Mabel Arc." A new novel, just issued by a lady of Ilillsboro, N. C.?The rtyle is flowing, easy and vivid ; it compares favorably with any work of the present age. Those fond of romance, cannot tail to be deeply interested ; it tells plainly what pure genuine love can do, and you will at once admire the characters of" Phillip Conway," and " Mabel Loe," while you will hold in contempt that of " Ainslie," and yet, you will be sorry for the poor, vain, unfortunate man. It is indeed a very clover story, and comes home to us, as the parties were all in South Carolina. " Salted WilA Fire Another new by the same authoress, published by E. J. Hale and Son. New York.

J r Tin Dkatu or PaorBssoa Dickson.?The t medical world in general, and the Jefferson t medical college in particular, have met 1 t with a sad loss tn the death of Doctor S. , H. Dickson, professor of the theory and f s prne'lce of medicine in that institution. * ] which chair he had filled with distinguish I ed ability for over fourteen years, br t t Dickson passed awav In the fulness of years t and honors on Sundsy morning, having at* * s tained the ripe age of seventy-four, and ' having been for more than tyalf a century a , > praetillenar and teacher of tha *c:ence of 1 medicine in this and other cities. His pro- I torsional labors during this exceptional pe. c riod have included at least three cities he j ' having occupied the chair of practice in tt'e t South Carolina college at Charleston ; in the ' 1 university of N?w York, and finally in the j Jefferson collage of Philadelphia, and in each his scientific reputation increased with L his service, while his social virtues eonlinu* [ ed to enlarge the circle of his friends and I I admirers In at least an equal ratio. He ^ 1 was indeed a gifted man in many ways; a learned physici in, a lucid teacher, ao ele- a ' gant scholar, an eloquent speaker, a charm, t ing writer both in prose and verae, a rare * conversationalist, and, last but not least, a f, ooble-heartad gentleman. He ha* >eft a r< plaee in all thsss respects not easy to fill, * Tl but he hat at all event* not left it till hia J record of honor and uaetulneaa ?v?* full to B overflowing.?Philadelphia Paper. ?
