RAILROAD BONDS. cat
Wc beg attention to the Bond of the Spartanburg Co
and TTnioa Railroad, which will bo found in another
column. The Bond has appended to it the inter* tlx
est coupons. This publication is mndo fur the pur* oot
pose of informing those contemplating investments coi
of the nature of tlio security they will have, and tlx
the simple mode of possessing themselves of tho in- mc
tcrcst soim-nnnunlly. Pay $100, aud tho Agents to
for the sale ot Bonds in Spartanburg, Messrs. Fob- ret
ter & Judd, will havo one of these $500 bonds tlx
filled up. When the first half-year's interest is am
due, say in July, 1S57, nil the holder has to do is fed
to take or send his coupon for that date to the int
Bank o( the Statu and get his interest. It ia equal If

THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.
From the several extra* issued from the Spari
office most of our readers ore aware that iJuinuo
and Breckinridge, the Democratic norui:s
of the Cincinnati Convention, hare been electto
tho Presidency and Vice Presidency of the
lited Stateu lor four years lrom the 4th of Muroh,
S7. Wo congratulnto the South?the country?
this result} inemuch as it affords proof of a
icrnl conservatism among the people of tho
lion, and gives breathing titno to the South to
ermine dispussionatcly what measures of security
dl be adopted for the future. We havo 110 idea
t the strife is over, but we have now ntoro defi0
data 011 which to estimate the streugth ol
ii'thcrn combination ngainst us, as the Prcsiden1
election was n contest between the constitution
1 its cncniics~bctwecn slavery and ao-alaveryi
The Democratic party, as far us wo arc now able
judge, will havo possession of tho Executive and
gislntivo Departments of the General Govern lit,
and now is tho nusniciouj moment?opart
m passion nnd political excitement?coolly to np>nch
tho solution of the problem whether this
lion shall bo continued as a blessing to all tho
ites, or whether power shall bo peacefully surnlered
up to tho several States for tho oonstruoa
of homogeneous governments. Tho South
inot and ought not remain insecure. The facili <
with .which her rights have been interpreted and
isluted away must bo checked, nnd this check
1 only be given by express amendment of tho
nstilutirn.
Wo propose, therefor*, that tho legislatures ol
i Southern States, by solemn sanction of law,
ivcne Stnto Convention*, which shall demitA .and
nmitsion 1 klegatcs to a General Congress of
5 Slaveholdiug 8tPtes, to determine what amend:uta
are necessary to the great cornpaot of Union
guard the peace aud integrity of our section, and
vlcr iw secure in rights and property. When
: labors of this body are completed, let the
ictidmenls agreed on bo proposed to the Conleracy.
It" adopted, the Union will still remain
act, with reasonable hope of peaceful endurance,
rejected, let Conventions of the two sco'ious
gotiutc a division of the national liabilities and mats,
and quietly dissolve th o Union, without fur?r
animosity or strife.
Since the nbovo was .vrittcn we find in the
larleston Mercury a letter ot lour columns from
jn. R. Barnwell Rliett, addressed to Governor
lams. In that letter we find tho following pnrajph,
ill which the very same idea is expressed:
"Tho States, ill their sovereign capacity, adopted
i Constitution; and by their action alone can auy
w gun ran t icn be inserted into it. Due or more
tile Southern States can test our true condition,
proposing to amend the Constitution by such
w securities as our safety and liberties require
the Northern Stales accept of them, then the
lion will be worth preserving. If they reject
tm, let tho Union be dissolved."
While wc admit that a single Stato could furnish
rue test in this matter, yet we woul.l have, as
>rc satisfactory, the whole machinery of our 6vc11
bronchi into piny, ns exerting greater mora
wcr, and being more in harmony with the gcuiu'
our institutions.
We commend this matter to tho journals ami
>plc of the South, though emanating from the re>to
District of Spartanburg. It will liaro th<

GRAND JURY "PRESENTMENT.
Tho grand jury of Charleston, fall Urm, 185C
iko sundry important presentments. Among
mi are the following, iu whioh tho whole Statu
much interest, viz:
Tho evils of having two days iu which to hold the
izl elections?recommending one only.
The delay of important business by the increasing
mbcr of frivolous cases now claiming the nttonn
of tho courts; nnl recommend tour terms iu
larlcstoti, or an additional judge.
A revision of tho ciniin.il laws, nnd an ubridgo nt
of the right to traverse for misdemeanors.
Tho law's delay, civil and criminal, U'"vgarded
;reat grievance, mi l calls for prompt remedy. It
'urthcr suggested, that every district is entitled
the cflic:ent adtn:niatrntion of justice at tho cost
the State, hut that no such provision nt present
sts.
A codification and arrangement of tho statute
is of the State is urged; as, from tho want of
so, learning nud experience are alike set at defile,
aud no security is afforded to the interests o'
iperty of the citizen. In illustration of the nesity
of this podifieation, the jury allege (what
ly be true for aught we know) that a large body
laws are of force whoso enactment by the Piirhn nt
of England embraces a period of time beginig
almost with tho Norman Conquest, and reach?
down to 170!), and ol which even the judges on
) bench are ignorant.
Contemplating tho facility with which criminals
ape punishment under our present ciiminal *\sn,
in consequence of tho penalty being too severe,
; erection of a penitentiary is pressed upon the
gitdaturc, and the confident opinion avowed, from
i experience of other States, that tho system
old woi k well.
We heartily concur in nearly nil theso reoomndations,
but fear that what is so manifestly
filed iu the way of reform, nnd recognised as
jesaary by tho common sentiment of the State,

That we have examined tho various reports of tho (
I Commissioners of sa<<l District. We find the Com- 1

The report of the Commissioners; oPublic IJuiM- '
ings has been laid before ns, withcri tlic proper t
vouchers. Therefore we are unable to say as to the 1
correctness of it. ! <
The roads attd bridges in our district are in good ?
( order, with tho exception of n few, to wit: The
stone bridge within tho incorporate limits of SparI
tAiiburg village; also, the bridge across Lawum's
( Fork, above Thomson's mills. j
On examination of the jail and its inmates, wo <
I find them well provided for, and managed by a i
very prudent jailer. Tho jail needs somo r? pairs, |
to wit: Tho whitewashing of some of tho rooms; i
also, new sleepers in one room; also, the roof needs 1
some repairs. We recommend the erection of n I 1
small portico over tho door ou the cast side of said ! |
. jai,\ 1

Messrs. Editors : In accordance with tho pro- 1,1

lay the Senate and House of Representatives elect- fr
;d by joint ballot the following Electors lor Presi- n<

A resolution was passed unanimously that it was \ tl
tho sense of the General Assembly that tho Eleo- n'
tors should cost their votes for Buchanan and '-j
llreekinridgo?tho Domocratio nominees. Mr. m
YeaJon of Charleston, a strong Fillmore man
throughout the campaign, moved in the House that
the won1 "unanimously" he inserted in the rcsolu- '
lion after tho word resolved, liis motion was adopted
of Course. A resolution also passed the House
snd vers concurred in by the Senate, that In choosing
Electors no reference was hud to opinions of the Sf
nominees in regard to national nominating Con- tr
volitions. Neither tho Convention iu<r anti-Conrention
party can therefore claim a victory in the v:
L-hoico of Electors. En passant wo may remark, w
that of tliu eight electors chosen two favored the a
sonvention system and went to Cincinnati, while six ''
opposed it. '
Id the Hecate a resolution was offered by Mr. n
Maxyek, ami passed without opposition, calling on ^
the President o( the Rlue Ridge Railroad Company ft(
it South Carolina for a statement of the stock hold- ni
crs in that company, tlie amount paid in by each, ^
and sundry other information in regard to it, and ^
also with reference to the Tennessee River Railroad,
and the Charleston A' Tennessee Railroad. 01
No further business of importance was transacted, !
md on Tuesday afternoon both hrauchcs of the ! 11
Legislature adjourned. H.ncc
Tuesday night election returns from dif- '
rcrcnt States hnvu been slowly coining its. Returns n'
generally indiesto the election of * Ruck and Hl
Hrcck" by n respectable majority. ?>11 Saturday it
was supposed that Kuchnuau had rcceircJ 160 1
votes, Fremont 11 i, Fillmore S, and -1 votes (those- i *
nf California) were counted doubtful. Returns rc- ,J
reived since tbc-n make the vote of Tennessee (12
votes, and that of Ind..ma (III voles doubtful. Roth ^
of these weie enumerated for Ruchanan, and if ouc
lias gone for lilimo'e and the other for Fremont, P
Ruchanan will have I 11 rotes only?lacking three
of an election. Returns are yet to be received from c
California, and her vote may s.tilo the question?so i
far as a choice by the Electoral vote is concerned, i ^
Maryland gave Mr. Fillmore over 7,000 majority. !
New York was carried by Fremont to the tune of
50,000 major ty. The Herald and Tribune uoknowledge
Fremont's defeat, but console themselves
with lb- philosophical reflection that nil will
not be well. I f the Rlack Republicans, (say tltcy,) h
with an imperfect orgatr/.V'on, no money, and no b
electoral ti' ki t in 11 Slates, can defeat the Anieri- ; f<
can patty in I^oO, thoy can ill 1800 de'eat the | s
Democrats. Weil, let them have some consolation, | ?
however poor The next election will tdiow who- ^ a
ther their predictions are to be verified. ( ??

n J)ihtiict, on Sabbath evening. J9th October'
dr. OAiVUIKL MADISON liOUUr, in tbo
orty firxt year of his age.
'l'he subject of this notice received a fracture ob
lis head from the kick of a h>>rsc at the age of
vventy months? since that lime, God has aeeD
irupoc to afiliet him vvith cof.>ulHi>na. A series of
ears had elapsed, un i '?;.? affliction grew heavier
i|xin his mortal frame, until he was inducw, >d try
he virtue of some unknown scheme for the reatoation
of his nHlicted body.
At the age of fifteen yours lie was carried to Coumhia
to try medical nid, which took place in thw
emova! of a portion of fractured skull by I)r. Wella_
[c returned home with gl<*>tny prospects to becloud
lis fulure pathway. A few years ufter, God sects
iroper, in his divine arrangements, to call from
hese low grounds of trouble mid sorrow,a devoted
ather. I le took tlie place of his father in bis earthly
ab<>rs, and discharged tlicm with great energy
md promptness. lie manifested much symjintby for
lis bereaved mother. ICre three years fiad elapsed,
lis affliction grew so severe, tiuit he w?# com|?eilcd
0 abaudon these earthly toils, and submit himsel}
nto the hards of his heavenly Father.
In *47 lie returned to Columbia, nnd again applied
or medical aid, which tcimiuated in removal of
1 portion of fractured skull by Dr. Tc^end. For a
ihurt time he appeared to be improving; but alaa!
its convulsions gradually became more severe. Bat
"till tic lingered on until iSod, when, ns life seemed
,>ut death, lie entered on a tour to Philadelphia,
aIi 'ii a third cpor.ition took place bv Drs. II r van!
Sc MeClintock, who removal another portion of
'ruct are. i foreturned homo with no fl ittering pr USfleets.
For twenty-five year* ho was a member of tbs
Baptist church at Bethel. lie manifested during
that period n ? rowing piety, which seemed to !e*d
him on more and more in tlio duties ot religion. It
sm a subject to which the pleasures of this world
were ol minor consideration'.
Iin> life w.w spent in the same community, having
lived and died at the eld family residrnee. By ina
moral and chr-tvtn life he gained the Wind feelings
ind interest of many warm and devoted friend#.
He wan an honest innti?regardful of truth and corr<
et dealing in all Ins worldly transactions.
In May last he took the dropsy, which prostrated
him upon n l.? d ofsicknesa. where lie rt-main&l
most of the t ine up to his death, lie bore hi# ?fQietions
through lilc with great fortitude, perfectly
reigned to the will of Cod. Oft-times through the
silent watches of the n:ght, when tho inn#t cat-ruliatiug
pains pi creed lu> frame, he would be heard
praying, nnd beseeching the Iyord to have mercy
on hint, lie exercised much patience. About thu
Inst week ??f hi# stay in thin world of affliction ho
was devoid of speech. JIo was cnusrievs of hia
intuition, and perfectly calm. Toward the clone of
Ins life, he folded his linnd# upon his In east, and
t. k a farewell look at those around Ins bed side.
A ter.r woa seen tracing its way down hia cheek,
and he closed his eyes, n*though lie was asleep.
In a short time lie breathed out his life sweetly
tin re.
He has left a large train of eonm-ctions to mourn
hi* Ii -*. Wc sympnthito with tlic firmly in tiro
loss they have sustained. Hut be resigned to the
will of (V>l, believing the los* you have Mitt.iued
