Oui \>e*8t washes attend her in the march it ; A ' The Dance at the Academy. |i 1 To heighten the attractions of Fair week, and fa the pleasures of = the day, add the enjoyments pf the : evening, the young people of Ab, beville resolved to have a dauce at the Female Academy, on Wednes" flqy evening of last week. There r was 110 lack of material in the j pleasure-loving of both sexes, and h hence the affair was soon arranged. A committee consisting of Messrs? e J. Walter GrayT W. W. Vance, Joel S. Porrin, Lewis Wardlaw, and"W. j S. Marshall, were appointed to make preliminary preparations,' and all - awaited with eager anticipation the 4 coming ?tojoyment. At an early hour the company assembled, consisting of a goodly array of young ladies and gentle'* men of the village, as well as many visitors from ' Greonwood, Cflkeg0 bur}*, and other portions of ourDis,r trict, and frQiii the adjoining Dise trictg of Anderson, Greenville, Laue rens and Edgefield. Ajl se$rned tp enter with spirit into the eiyoyments P of the evening, and with good mu.sic and the exhilaration of the dance ^ ?tripping it on "the light, fantase tic toe,"?the l^ours passed pleask* antlv away. r" Among those present, doinghona or to the occasion, and giving zest 0 to its enjpyjnent, were General Mce Gowau and lady, Col. Cothran and )" lady, and Solicitor Perry. The l" General was not coutent to bo a e mere Hooker-oil in Vienna," but l* entered into the fail enjoyn}pj}t of l" the mazy ring, and observed with especial grace the command "honor * your partners." The Solicitor.also practiccd here in another court with a his wonted assiduity, and perhaps y equal success. In this he had manyj 1 followers?as there is no license, ? required to practice here. 1 Very excellent music upon the violin and harp was furnished by a 11 travelling troupe, then sojourning 2 in the village, which contributed 3 very much to the pleasures of the 1 evening.

And here at the outset we may ad- ' ? vert to that which constituted per' haps its most remarkable eharaeter5 istic ? tho crowds in attendance. > Wednesday tho opening day was . nr*. i { . rainy and disagreeable, Dtit xnursany j opened as fnir and serene tfs a May morning, with everything In external j nature to tempt one to seek enjojment ( under the blue skies, and in the balmy air. Asa consequence the crowd was immense. Every availablo horse and mulo, and buggy and earriago in , tho District scemcij to have been pressed into requisition, and came rol- ( ilng in,with their living freight of all sexes, ages /ind conditions-?young |{ men and maidens?old mon and matrbrffc?boys and girls, and even the J baby in arras?the darkey and hi* ' employer?gravo professors and col- j lego students from Duo West, and studonts and teachers ahko from ( Willington. Special trains too brought 1 large crowds from G'okcsbury, Green- 1 wood and Ninety Six, whilst visitors 5 were presont in largo numbers 1 from Greenville, Anderson, Laurens, and Edgefield?-ladies and gentlemen, drawn together by the promised enjoyments and varied attractions which make ourannual Fairs, gala occasions. ? A remarkable feature, of tho as1 sembly was not merely'its size, but ' those surv-pundingR, which speak i trnmpct-tongued of happy homes and . thrifty farms ant} prosperous industrj' 1 ?the handsome carriage, tho neat I buggy, tbe welUfbd mule, the splendid j draught horse, the prancing courser? I above all tho air of contentment and , onjoymont which pervaded the crowds of Well-clad gentlemen, and gaily, dressed ladies. Sorely these Hilngs will compare with thoso of the prosperous ante helium days, and tcach us ' that "there is i% life in tho old land " yet." I Another prominent feature of the AnmnlahinAflfi ftnfl ' run nu? kit*? wii?^?vfcy?tvvw -?

The number here witho and within afford an indication of ll largeness of tho attendance and tl hrilliancy of the assembly, which 1 }rays form so interesting a feature these exhibitions.

Some of the agents appear to >n have been in collnsion with the pur. chasers, and the poorest kinds of cotton lu were shown as samples of the entire lot ic held., by the Government, the bidders l getting it by this arrangement at the I low figure of 20 cents per pound and ll-: subsequently selling it at tile market 0?.; price, thereby securing a handsome profit.
