'* Tliis portion of proceedings being disposed of, ho ? oompiny then sought the table, where a su..iptnoun 1 picnic was spread by the niunifioenee of the Indite of the vicinity, and we know not that we can better lt describe the ubuudance which marked the occasiou " than by saying that tho number present on the ^ ground was fairly estimated nt front twenty-five r" hundred to three thousand, and yet provisions in plenty survived the charge of the three thousand " hungry appetites that were eager for the fray, but ' forced to fall back in satiety. 0 It was beautiful to see an occasion of this soi l attended by so many ladies?an actual count show ing " six hundred to be present. Another ftature of interest was the presence of m my cadets of temperance i from Greenville, among whoin wc were pleased to " meet with Bro. Price, of the Enterprise. The day ? woe pleasant, no mishap or accident marred the festivities, and at an early hour all resumed the hoine'' ward route, satisfied with having aided in iuaugura- I 0 ting a noblo and benevolent institution, that must quench ignorance, energise industry, and scatter ^ blessings near and remote for ages to come. J OOYERSMETT DISBDRSEflE\T8. The New York papers are in raptures at the forecast of the Secretary of tho Treasury, Hon^ Howell Cobb, in nffotding relief to the Banks. At the opening of tlie panto in August the new tariff ' i hud accumulated $13,500,000 in gold in tho sub ' I treasury. To release much of this the Secretary ' | concentrated Government disbursements at that ooint by promptly auditing and paying out appro ^ ! priatiotts. By ibis means lie reduced the specie on 1 hand to $2,700,000?so that $9,750,000 <?f specie went (ft i . ... ... .... ? " j into tlie banks.

Scoit, while iu Mexico, hnd placed ; ^ a huge mini of Government money in the bauds of Mr.Trist, to corrupt or bribe Santa Anna to make 1 || , 1 a treaty of p-ace, liM brought out Gen.

As ibis i* part of tlio practice of all civil z d nations, li nnd as General Scott's accounts hare been regular !y adjusted at Washington, tho chargo of General t i, Pillow turns out to be a mere matter of moonshine. : II Flow shameful that an American general officer '. should endeavor t>> buy place by betraying wb.it he j - thought great State scurets, and perhaps all the par- ' i. tits living to be injured by the facts! As Gen. - Scolt says, it "was lucky, therefore, that the names i ol And wore never confided to Gen. ; e Pillow, as it is certain, from tho example Is-lore u?, he would, contrary t?? the faiili and honour of our j country, have published I hem in lull, to the ruin of the pnili<s and their descendunis." . s ?s? ? ?WxllSaio.? The New York Journal of Cont mrrce says that "if the people showed hulf as much 4 fear ??f die b.mliH A* some of ilu* Links d.i of |!ic * people, not one of these institutions (stuM maintain ' specie payments for eight ami foitv hours." 1 And yet there is no truth more palpable to the 1 tntnd than that the people lire far more solvent titan ' .he banks. I 1 IIaisk Mokk Food.?The New York Post gives 1 soino "advice to tlic tillers of the soil," from whicli | we lako lite following srnsiblc and timely remarks; The revolt in Indiana is the harbinger of famine; ' one hundred and eighty null on* of human crea- ' lure* will need huge supplies of food from the pro- j ducts ol other regions. Tito nrtny of India, the transport fleet for that army and its supplies, the ' necessities growing out of the disturlx J state of that 1 great English dependency, will call for much ol our 1 surplus boef, pork and flour. Thu two hu>t named articles are the product of every year, but beef requires yesrs of nourishment be'oro it is ready for i use. The wieked, wanton waste of breeding pow- , er, which is the b< setting sin of Aujcrii-au farmers, , ought U? be checked. Every farmer ougltt to bo | required to give an account of himself who kills a female calf. We ought to presorve every "ouwcalf" for five years to come. Ily this method we a might soon have a supply of beef, not enly for our- | I sHMh, but for any emergency abroad.

No matter how rid it is. in n free governinont. where liberty of discussion is rce< gnised, * ' ' nothing should bo regarded as so venerable as to be tcu exempt from publio criticism." han , ,,r m or t Why are Provisions so Uigli? Jjj Under this heading, the Ciuuiuuati Inquirer ecu- bus tains the following important remarks and statistics, ,a' to whieli wc invito serious attention: It is a great enigma to many people why the prices of provisions continue ?<> high, tut an in-pection of the census returns and of the oust' m-housc ' reports throw much light on the malt< r. In 18-10, A si for instance, the United S ates produced 8 I,>20,000 ;9 s) bushels of wliu.it, 108,000,000 bushels of Irish and . sweet potatoes, ati'J 1-1,070,000 Ilea I of cattle. Had K agriculture remained simply stationary, considering bee the increMt of papulation, it ought to have pro- 1 duced in 1850 115,1140,000 bushels of whu.n, 140,- y0 000,000 bushels of potatoes, 20.340,000 head of cattle; instead of which it only yi Med 100,480,- ' 000 bushels of wlieat, 104,000,000 bushels of pnla- t',n toes, and 18,378,000 head of cattle.

' The value of breadstuff* and provisions exported to I average |?-r annum for the |>criod: 9U|r From 183H to 1840, $1*2,000,000 !

We think we .e!,< may assume now, without fear of contradiction, that j hilvt the supply of hogs is ample." i 4\j It says thcro will be a Inrg increase in the num. the Iter brought to market, and a "long hog crop." | s _ i Colli ~ *j undi Among the items otjoreign news by the Canada j no|0 is the statement that the lliissian government have ' t.j ( decided that the German language shall he no long- 1 Cll|n er taught in the public school at Irkoutrk, hut shall (|ie be replaced by the Knglish language, which, indeed, i j|lvi| considering (he (rude tcilh America, in more re- J qutsile in (hat pari of Hit sua.

If tho questiou eould be derided by the pro- t,vci pie, we have not a doubt but thut the sentiments of con Lieut. Col.

'he Charleston Evening News, in an article on crisis in monetary ufliiirs, holds the following funge: Our banks ore sound. Our merchants are nd. Tho planters arc sound. High prices render u short cro|*sau abundant resource. But unless .'?n, rice, etc., can be sold and promptly, but little uf eau be obtained from tho prcat nt pressure. If banks crnw to discount, or to buy the bills of liango drawn upon produce, the moneyed means buying and nendirg forward the crops will he led, and the recovery from the existing strincy slow. The crops tnnsl be brought forward t sold, to enable the people to pay the merchants, merchants the hanks, and the banks to obtnui hatigc and thus specie. The reliance Tor this pose can only he on the general circulation which really reduced, and on such accommodation nud nations as our banks can afford. Can they a!I anyl We answer, yes. Tli# mo?l reliable insurance has been given us, L our banVs nud bankers hi Charleston and the le mo working cordially together, .vitl stand by bother, will not suspend nor ask hare to su*d, w.ll uphold their credit to their last dollar nud sustain trade to their last cent. This is worthy hoin nii.l of South Carolina. Whatever errors y may have committed, whatever license taken, itcver sponging profit made, they intend now to heir duty to the State, to the people and to themes, in maintaining the integrity and safely of ir bus;nc*s relations. 1 nia spirit, combined with ktimvn sagacity and e.a rience of our bankers, a of character, should command the ooiifidence i f public, nnd prevent any panic or unnecessary . L? t a spirit of iiiuiu.il accommodation pervade classes, and all will soon be right. It will be observed that the New York banks I no! elite si.mil linn but u ill rxnnnd i.. tli.i m.

This will enable our ks to ojhii credit* with lln.ni on which to draw, o sell there their exchange, in addition they e their own menus in the form of sonic available hango und a fair amount of specie, on which to e credits and make advances.
