"We are indebted to Governor Brov of Missouri for a copy of his annt message to the Legislature of that Sla In which he discusses at its close, t j>oliticftl situation, and gives his vie of what constitutes true and false I publicanism. GovernorBrown it will recollected is a moderate Republic who was elected t? office in Missouri an array of moderate men of both p ties, in a united and successful efi aguinst Radicalism backed by the A ministration. His views are then no worthy as being the expression of t Reform nartv of Missouri, which see to form the nucleus of a great natioi organization, which shall wrest the po erof the Government from the prest corrupt administration, introduce nc< ed reform into every department of t public'service, and restore all the Cc stitutional restraints and limitations the Government of our fathers. True Republicanism, according Governor Brown, asserts freedom a equality to all men in their political lationss limited by none of theaccidei of nativity, race or cfclor; finding earliest expression in purely local orgs iaation, but obtaining wider develo] ment, and stronger guarantees in de gated representative authority. every stage of developement, it is si jected to proper constitutional restraii which define its powers*, and prescri the sphere in which it may accompli its proper work. It creates nothi] greater than itself?nothing self-co trolling?and delegates no authori which may destroy either its whole any of its parts. Such is true Repub can ism in its proper sense?a ser which would never have been serions controverted, but for the intervention the war, which suspended all civil fur tf?ns in the necessities of self-protectio and thus established a strong centr authority. The false Republicanism of the da on the contrary, regards national pow as the central source from which r authority must descend. It assum ihe war-making power, and over-rid the civil law, and overthrows every co stitutional guarantee. It establish monopolies in trade, in finance, and the distribution of the public lands creates unjust and unequal systems taxation?dictates candidates for office the States, and overawes the Slate ete tions by the military arm of the Go crnment?and above all justtfies i encroachments by those Amendments the Constitution, which in truth conv< 110 shadow of authority. It has tak< but the first step, which if unchecke necessaiily leads to an entire subversif .-Ute rights, and the establishment u central military despotism. The ploa for this encroachment up< long cherished rights, and overthrow the o!d constitutional safeguards is n cessity "the tyrant's plea"?the nec< uity of maintaining the settlements the war, and protecting those rights color and race which were then gut anteod. The falsity of the claim (shown in Missouri itself, harrassed mo than any other during the war, ai where another colicv has been nnrstie and where every right of the slave h been guaranteed, and every civil fra chise protected. On. the contrary B construction at the South has been failure. It has failed if for no other reas< that It has sought to overthrow the se timent of local freedom which prevai everywhere?those forms of politic life, which are essential to the preserv tiou of liberty. The movement in Missouri, as Gove nor Brown remarks, is significant ar hopeful?significant, as setting forth tl overthrow of a domination which w part and parcel of that, which for s years of pcacc has failed to restore tra; qullity to the country?hopeful as sho> ing the practicability of combining tl elements of opposition, which shou lead to a more extended deliveranc To Missouri we look then for our leade in this new crusade against Radic misrule.'

The Legislature of Rhode Island cor roei.ced its adjourned session on the: \ L tfGtf Cfomty. ^ f 'HVe have in our possession a copy of ? la petitiou to the present Legislature* for I a new County, to be taken from a por- u tion of Abbeville, Edgefield, Newberry g ? land Laurens, with the Court House at' I Ninety-Six. "While we are in favor oJ __ ! everything like progress, we arc, at the c I ^arae time, individually opposed to de- ? j partitg from old laud marks and their ? ! obliteration, unless it be elcarly evident c j. j that the departure is for public good, and | will benefit more eitizens than it will r er i inconvenience. So far as the citizens of l j this County are concerned, we are at a h Ofj!loss to discern wherein the proposed p | new County could be*of any material adlY, vantage to those of our citizens likely to 1 ; be thrown within theboundsof the new r Yej County, If. as the snid petition propo- t h 'ses, the boundary lines extend "seven, ^ I ten or twelve miles each way from the t ! village of Ninetv-Six," those only living 1 'i immediately on the river would be bene- f fitted, as the village of Ninety-Six,, we t believe, is some six or seven miles from 1 ^ any convenient crossing of the Saluda; is.1 besides, Nature has already fixed au im- 1 a]j I perishable line in this old stream, and i : therefore, we would say, "remove not i usj the old land mark." - ? eyl "Suppose, for instance, the bounda- 1 ay1 rie? should be fixed at twelve miles from * ie l the village of Ninety-Six, persons living t ' i near the extreme boundary on theNorth, i Slt | Ln now Laurens County, would have a ' -C- j distance of from ten to twelve miles to 1 i-3', i travel, and the river to cross, in order to ' ,or! reach tlieCourt House. 1 i "The proposition#to create this new j I County may answer very well for Edge- j US- s fioM AliliAvillo nnil npphflns. "Mowhfirrv od ?Counties which have an abundance of { territory to spare, andjtlie two first i named, at least?but ? Laurens "has no surplus in that way. If, however, we 2's are in error as to the advantages to be derived by ereatinp;thc proposed County, by those of our citizens who may fall within its limits, w are open to convic,'n, tion; and while we would regret their { separation, we could but wish them a lieajty Godspeed." ,e' The above remarks from our friend of j 1)6 t the Laurcmville Herald, we fully en- , WS i ^ i dorse, except iu so far as he may think, j ^ ' that they apply with less force to Abbe- j an | ville and Edgefield, than to Laurens and j . : Newberry. The great objection to the | formation of new counties, is on ac^ count of the expense which it involves, in the multiplication of offices, and the ^ J erection of new; public buildings. This | jjg! will more than counterbalance any ad- ( j vantage which the public may derive by j !a greater proximity to the County scat. J The objection to the size of Counties, on j ,nt! account of distance from thetonrthouse, ( ! is one which the improvement in loco- motion is constantly overcoming, and { mj which applies now with less force than j r ever. The cry for new counties comes, l J we think, rather from politicians j and landowners than from the J body of the people. Still, as our friend i remarks, we may be mistaken, and are its ?fen *? conviction. its j tn_ "Christianity and the Law."? se-jWe are indebted to the Rev. Jas- L. je.! Martin, Pastor of the Presbyterian * At 1 church here, for a sermon by the Rev. ! Ds. B. M. Palmer of New Orleans, on 1 lt8 "Christianity and the Law, or the claims tbo' ?f Religion upon the Legal Profession." r sh litis a strong and earnest plea, character- | DgJ ized by the preacher's well-known log- t ,n. I ical force and eloquence. Christianity ijy I is shown to have many common points ^ or! of intersection, and a wonderful affinity (jj. j with human jurisprudence?as being it- ^ ise :self founded upon the idea of law?as i tempering justice with mercy?its cardial nal principles being daily illustrated in 1C_ [ the practice of the legal profession?as ^ n | founded upon a religious element which .jjI rne jaw is luiceu iu ittugmic?uo ^ seating an array of evidence, which legal minds can best appreciate?and a ' 01! bo4y of truth which furnishes the sur,jj : est safeguard against the professional , Cs dangers to which lawyers are exposed. v cg The sermon enforces the high duties t( u_ end grave responsibilities which rest , pg upon the legal profession, as the coustijn tuted guardians of law, and the sworn _ ministers of justice. Every interest of 0f society is intrusted to their keeping, j jn and the character of every community is determined by that of its Bar. The -y v. preacher therefore calls upon the profesits sion to be not merely the champions of human justice, bnt the earnest advocates of tha Divine Law?drawing their in- ^ ?n spi ration not from earthly fountains, but j j the source of all law?the Holy Bible. . >n B of Hot Supper at Clear Spuing.?We t( bad hoped to have beeu furnished with n in ft" account of the Hot Supper at Clear I v of Spring Academy on Friday, 29th ult., by! c e- one who was present, and which would ;s. do justice to the sumptuous feast and all of its joyous surroundings. But we must of leave it all to the imagination of the ^ tr- reader?the heavily loaded tables?the ? iy appetizing meats?the delicious cakes 11 re and custards?solids and liquids all in ^ id generous profusion and all betokening d, the generous souls and skillful hands of * as the ladies of that vicinity?above all SI n- the happy, joyous throng of youthful ^ ,e- hearts, that joined hands to trip "the a light fantastic toe," in an old time Christ>n mas reel. From the appearance of some n- of our friends the next day, they looked iIs! as if. f al "They danced till broad-daylight, a a" And went home with the girls in a the morning." il r- . e "SVc had the pleusure of meeting ie Dr. J.

Another year is past, and we stand pon the threshold of the new. 1871 is 041 one, with all its buried hopes and un- ^ edeemed pledges?and yet too with its 86 are9 and its disappointments?the jeal- ot msies and bickerings of the passing tour. Iu that past twelve months re- u ord of our own lives how little to com end, and how much to censure, do the es est of us find?good resolutions which te Live borne no fruit? indiscretions and 01 rrors which have left unseemly scars >ehind. The year itself has been sig- (ll lalized by no- striking events which make ai o themselves eras [in human progress ^ md perhaps too the current of our own ives for twelve months have brought w ew ripples to the surface. But the change S1 las been no less real than it has been ^ lidden. Those moments are most proillo of good and evil, which bring forth ^ 10 visible fruit. It is so in history of nations aud in that of individuals. One igo is the seed time of another? he germs of one year are developed in P1 he succeeding. Perhaps in the past 61 fear the seed of evil habits have been P planted, and the germs of good resolu- al :ions have been crushed.
