GOVERNOR'S ELECTION. We are gratified to find that our Correspon dents were mistaken in supposing that " Edge feld" was opposed to the election of Col. J. P. Richardson. We never thought that.Col. R. would meet with any serious oppos.tion; and congratulate his friends upon the unanimous support which, it is now manifest, he will re ceive in this section of the State. It will be seen, by referring to the extracts which we to-day publish on this isuject, that the Union party have long since buried the bachet. It is a blotupon theese itcheOn of our party, which should be immediately removed, that, whilst we have been professing to forget and forgive, we have been carrying on a sys temorpersecution against the Union men. Let those who-think that we are characterising the conduct of the State R. Party. in harsher terms thanit deserves,recollect that for the last8 years the gentlemen of the Union party. have been almost entirely excluded from all officesof honor or profit in this State. If to exclude rentlemen from offices. the duties of which they are com petent to dischatge, simply because they once differed from us. on a political question, now of no piactical utility, be not persecution. we have quite mistaken the meaning of the word. Ifwe regard eitherthe reputation of our State orthe in ierests ofthe South -we will act umon thi:' po!i ey no longer. The great political parties of this country are divided upon the question of State Rights or consolidation. The Sub.Treas ury party is desirons of diminishing, whilst the otder is in favorof increasit'g the powers of the General Government. The Sub-Treastury party therefore is the State Rights party. And those who are opposing the Sub-Treasury. how ever honest they may be in their oppori inn. are opposing our principles and cannot receive our support. We hopte that the State Rights party will re member that Nullifieation is not now the ques tion at issne,and that the Sub-Treasury is. We urge them to he cautious because we believe that ploits have been laid-inductions danger ois" to distract our State by presenting filse issues to the people and reviving party fends long since forgotten. Let not the actors "be hind the curtain" think that they can keep con cealed. Who are interested in preventing the Sub-Treasury question from being uade tie touch-stone of politic-il orthodoxy in this State? Certainly none buz those whose opposition to the Sub-Treasury has thrown them into a mi nority, and hope to get into a maoritv, by re living tie Nuillifinatioti question. "Sub-Treas ury" is our watchword. Without it none can pass, and we distrust all wto learned not this shibboleth at the breast. Those gentlemen from whom Mr Clay received hais information. before pronouncing his "drunken prophecies.' in the Senate will lie taught that John C. CAl houn wears a corselet of public cnfidence, more impervious to the arrows of their malig nity, than was the steel coat of De Bracey to the shafts of Lock'ey. Let them continue to assail him-their bolts w il bu: rebound upon themselves. "The purpose you undertake, is dangerous; the friends you have named, uncer tain; the time itself unsorted; and vour whole plot too light for the counterpoise ofrst great an opposition." Colonel Richardson is known as the Dem - cratic, Sub-Treasury candidate. Can a Sub Treasury mia. consistently oppose him, whilst a Clay and Bank candidate is "in the field inn nuuring?" Does not Col. Hammotnd occnpy this position. if Jtudge Johnson is not to be with drawn ? IfJutdgc J. is to he withdrawn, why is hsis name still icept before the public ? Is it not obviously t. the putrpose of dividing the Union party. andI theit tt ansferring his votes to Col. HI.? If they exptect to gull the Union men by "arts like these." till they "grow genm tIe. tractah.'e. andh tatme as geese," they will find in their defeat, that they have missed their men. Wee publish in another cohtmn, ant account of a District, Agricuturatl rSocmety, whichi was formed in Baernwelh. in Jainuary Inst It will be seeo that maniy of the first ment of the Dis trict. becamie ttembers, and were a ppointed as Committees to report on vatriouts. imtporinnt subjects. This is highly creditable to them, arid speaks well for the puliic spirit of the citizens of that section of thte iState. Agricentnrtl So ieties have also been formed in manny other istricts. Wee hail this as a goodl otmen Sneh ocieties cannot butt be produetive of great ood. They tend to excite in the inds oif our itizens an interest in behalf of Agriculture, whlich has so long been declining in our State. A conoorn ahoutattis subject,is certainly ofitmore tmportance to the common wveal. as has been pithily renmarked, thani about the mere abs'rac rious of peliticians Those who only wvrite and think abont the hatter. tare too often usel,-ssly employed, and like the characters described by the poet, "In wandlering mazes lost." Several years ago, there was an Agricultural Society in Edgefireld. Several of our leading men wvere members of it. Why was it stuf '*red to tanignish anid diet? We know, that here is enutrh ofitelligenice atnd public spirit inong our planters. for the establishnieit of a. other society. Some of them are among the ost skilful and successful of any, in the upper cnintry They can vie we believe, with any the surrroutnding Districts. Tho adlvantages f having a society before which. the produc mits of ouir different planxters cant be comtpared, id premiums awarded to the most successful ttst be obviotns to all. We be~g leave to re mmend to onr ecitizens the formation of a so ety, to be called the "Edgefield Agriculttural ociety." It will lie seen. from the extracts we publish day. from tihe letters of .ir. Van Duiren, and naeral lliarrisnn. that the Sotuth cainn hesi e in choosing betweenth/ese two evils. Ge-n. rrian, we lielieve. is to be the Whtig canidi ofor the Presidency. "Should I be naked if there is no way wbich the Genealn Gorornment COD aid the cause of emaneipation, I answer that it has long been an object near my heart to see the whole of its surplus reve' nue appropriated to this object. With the ianction of the States holding the slaves, there appears to me tohe no constitutiond objection to its heing thus applied, embra cing out only the colomtzation of those that may he otherwise freed, but the purchase of the fireedom of ot hers. By a zealous prose cntiou ofa plan formed upon that basis we might look forward to a day not_ very dis tant, when a North American sun would not look down upon a slave." Ma-VAN BuaRN: "The subject of (emancipation) is in my judgment exclusively under the control of the State Governments: and I am not ap prised, nor do I believe, that a coutrary opinion, to any extent deserving considern tion, is entertained in any part of the Unib ted States. . The charge therefore, to which you have had the goodness to call mny attention.'"that I am in favor of an interference hv Congress in tanumtittg your slave property." is destitue of foun elation. So far from it, I do not see on what authority the General Government could interfere trithout a change of the Con stitution. either. at the instance ofone or all the sluveholding Sites." Communications. Edgefield has admirably succeeded in start ing all the members of the pack political in full cry. in the Gubernatorialchase. Tray,Blanch& Sweetheart, "tres in uno," have given mouth with the spirit and readiness of high blooded pups. But as the object of Edgefield was not to provoke them to show their teeth at him. and snap at his heels, ie will henceforth 'content himself with occupying the position of an am. uteur observer, of the sport and with seeing how long it will take them to run down their game. If he cati be pardoned for usisng an other figure. he would renmrk. that having fur nished matter. sufficient to set all the nowly winged silk worms, to spinning their political thread, he will, with the equanimity of a Zeno. quietly watch the process oftheir winding them selves up in their own web, and then passing into the chrysolis state. He will here do an act ofjnstice to hitsel', by stating explicitly, that lie feels no repngtnance to the elevation oIf Col. Richardson to the office of Governor. He possibly would not have been the choice or Fedefielt. btut lie certainly never designed to disparage him before the publie, or to insiniate that lie was unworthy of the post. in which his friends were aiming to place him. Edgefield en o% ed the confidence and friendship of Col. Rehardson, before his pre.ent heitspur defend ers, had a knowledge, that such a gentleman was in existence. Col. Richardsom may have cause to apply to himself, the Spanish adage, ' Save mle from my friends, and I will take care of my enenies." E. %fr. Editor As the following poetry, written "by a Lady," on "now-a-stays." does honor to tier sex. von will doubtless confer a favor -.sm thefair portion 4f your readers, by pub libinth it. Its valute is doubly enhanced by the fact, that it describes, itt a parteu lar manntter, the simpliciy of the former, and the etiquette or the hitter tines. The tie is natutre in all her glory-the other is nature distorted. The Poetess seems to have been of the opinion. that woman was intended to he a help, andI not an ex pinsive-nate, for man. But what am I talking about ? We live in an age of im provere nta-nny.ofpunctilious refiuenent. A city-polish is now given to education, whereas,in t he days of her "sweet sixteen," only the elementary atnd more practical bratnches wvere studliedl. This age has giv en birth to tnew sciences ! A Cou'tesy, for itst anc-e, no w~ formts a scienti/lc de pmtmenc nnd requir'es at least fourt mtonth's criticaol ap~plient ion to be-comte indulscted inato its miy~teries! Does a Lady wish to know w'hat a gentleman is~lroml what lie sprang, atnd what he is destitned to ? Just let her see him walk itnto at parlor, andi she w'ill -lec'ide capon all "the-se thing<" with the ce-rtainty of' faste! Bt, the Poetry-the Poetry. BXA.. Y Alas! how every thinig us changed Since I Was sweet sixteen, W~hen all the girls wore hotmesptcn frocks, Aged aprons nice acid clean; Witha hontnets made witht braided straw, Antd tied beneath the chin,4 Asnd shcana aI Ine iatly on the back, And fastened with a pin. Hus now-a-dniys the Ladies wear Fresnch gloves ande leghorn bonnets, That take upr half a yard of sky In brick-hod shape o'f flaes, AndI gowtns, although they fall as low As such things ought teo fall, They've wawte that 'yoo might break into, They are so very small. I recollect the titne when f Rlode F ather'se horse to mill, Aeross the mteadows, rocks, aind delds, Atnd sip ande down she hill; A nd w~hen 'or folks were out at work, As true as I'm a sitnner, I juminped upon a horse's back, And carried thetm their dintner. Dear mue! young ladies now-a-days, WVould aleemest faint aiway, To think of riding all alone In wagou. chaise, or sleigh ; Anal as four giving 'Pa" his meals, Or he-lpitng "Ma" to hake: 0! noa-'T would spoil their lilly hands, Though they somnetimes make cake. When winter came, the maiden's heart Began to heat andI flutter: E ach heatu would t ake his sweetheart out, Sleigh ridinig in a cutter; Or if the storm wa~s black and cold, ThIe girls and beaux together Would mieet and have moast glorious fun, And never mrind the weather. Jisat no" indeed it grieves me much The circumarstine to mnention, Howitever kind a you'g tman's heart, .~And hoenest heis itentieon, lle nce'eir cant ask thte uirl" to ride, Butia such a war is wag'dI! And if he sees her once a week, why .urely thev'rocenga;'d. I never thought that I would try My hand at making rhymes, But 'tis the way to-reprobate The present evil times; For should I preach morality In common sober prose, They'd say 'twas older than the hills, Or else turn up their nose. OmIVE BRANCH. The Pendleton Messenger doubts the propriety, though it approves of Col Rich ardson as the man, of Nullifiers pledging themselves to a Union caudidate for Gover nor, until the other party has proved that it has also dropped old party distinction, by supporting Nullifiers for office-which says the Mlessenger,has as far as its knowl edge extends not yet been the case in any District. We are happy to -inform our highly respected contemporary. tlint in this District at least, the thing has been done, and handsomely. Mr. Hohnes great man jority over Mr. Legare, was swelled to its overwhelming amount, by the cordial co operation of the sub-treasury union men of Charlesion-and our mixed ticket to the Legislature at the same time supported by both union and nullification sub-treasury men-in all good faith and good feeling. We are sorry to see the Messenger hesitate at all-and on such grontd, as to the adop tion of our candidate-a gentleman identi fled with the support of Mr. Calhoun-and of the great political principles for which the Sonth is now contending. The question now, whether a man was a unionist or nullifier in the great hattle which we fought and won against federal oppression ten years ago is of no more real present importance than the question whether the flood was of fresh or salt wa ter. It can only be revived now by design in- men who would avail themselves of old prejudices to divide the sub-treasury party of our State, and by dividing destroy the party, and impair the strength of John C. Calhoun. Knowing the Messerger's attachment to Mr. Calhoun, we an'ection ately warn against suggestions,which per haps seeming to coine from a friendly quar ter mtay yet be "weak inventions of the enemy." Let us remember the old man's bundle of slicks, and watch those who are tmed dling with the cord that hinds us. The etnhrt to rally nullifiers on nullifiention ground aginst Col. R., will we trust fail in the interior, as experience ofsome length and recent signs colviltce us it will not succeed here. Ai effort to revive the old fend cannot sieceed in Charleston with either party. We know that the bulk of the old Union party here are with its, are. witli .1r. Calhionn. atid reel as much repug nance as we do to rekindlinir the extit guished fires of the iaist. They did no sytiipathize with. and were not represen ted by the Courier. in its late protest a gainst a part of Gen MeDnudie's eulogy. Let the Messenger rmember our words If there sliall he a contest, fir Governor, Col. Richardson will be sustained by Uni on and Nullification Sub-Treasary ien. all bonafide firiends ofr Mr. Calhoun, and the opposition will be nale up of the bank party. the Pregion party, aod such Sub Tl'reas y Nullifiers, as personal ambitiOn or jenluasy may blind into subscrviency, to deigts te consuimaiotm of which will involve theirown riin. They will iftheir aid secures a victory be broken like pitch ers at the foundation at which the enemies of Calhoun shall slake their thirst after hard fought batile.-Char. Mercury The Pendleton Messeiiger, in noticing the nomination of the Hon. J. P. Richard son for the office of Governor, holds the fol lowing language, in reference to our old party divisions: "We conrfess too, that we shotihl like to see some evidlence of general amnesty by the old1 Union party, in the choice of some of the op~positiont party to the 1egislature from the districts where they heldl the uscendlancy. rThe nuillifientiotn districts have in mnany cases set the examn ple aof electinig their old opiponents, buit ifit hns been folloawead in a single instance by the Union districts, w'e cannot call it to indit." TIhe Messenger must have noticead very suiperheially, the camret aof events, not tao be able to call to mind a sing1, instance, in which the aola Uniaon party have set the exampleha, which the eaditor says lie should like tao see. In this district, the im ajoa ity in favor oaf the Union party was ns dlecidedl as perhaps any other in the Staite. land party slpiri raged as fiercely, anal Vet, here, of thre~e Representatives tuo aif thetm are if tihe Nulhicatiaon paty. In the aadjoina ing di<trict of Chesterfield, ni here the same temtark with respect toa the strenatha of liar ties is equally applicsuole, out aaf two memn bers to tile House ofC Raepresentaitives one is a Nullifier, This Congaressiaonni Dis. nrit too.4 always heretofore represented by a Union mani, anal in which' t he Uniont party heldl no doutful ascendancy, now .wnuds a Nullifier to Congress, showing a liberality ont the part of Union mien which ought, we think, to satisfy the Messaencer. While on this subject. we many add, that we dla not recollect a single instaince where a Nullifier has failed to be elected to offie in any distract, where the Untion party hiad the aseendaney, simaply neciase lie wva. a Ntulbiier, Numeiaraus instances of their election to offices aothecr tihan that oh Representative, ar-e fresh in aour recollec tion. In this District, since the adjust mnent in relation to the oath of allegianice. at the Le~gislatutre of 1834, we have never knaown the existence of the Nullineaatio~n anal Union parties, as such. hnt all seemed deterined to try who should soonest for get that any stnch adivisioC evor existed.

S'eam tw.-l-A is -the case always after any. very serious cala mity by steamboats has occurred, various suggestions are now making. through the. newspapers. for rendering those vessels more safe. Among the best we have seen, aud oue which appears entirely feasible, is a suggestion made by the correspondent of the New London Gazette. The plan designs the preventing of boats from sink ing under any circumstances, whether by being hurnt or by striking snags or rocks. It is proposed that in construeting steanm boats, and it might hie added any other kind of vessel, copper cylinders, air tight, shall be placed upder the upper works of the boat of sufficient. capacity to sustain the vessel after she had sunk to the deck. In the bottom of the hunt there shonuld be a water gate, with machinery to open ttin i a moment, so that in cas6 of fire, the boat could he filled to the deck. There would therefore be but little to burn, and after the fire should7 be extinguished, the "gite" could be r-losed, and the water pnmped out. All this could be accorpbed in a very I few moments and thou:;h considerabie 1 damage would ensue, mnch property would pe saved, and better than all there could scarcelv b danger ofloss oflife. Indeed, every boat in 'itself would be a life-boat. We think tiis Iilen entitled to deep consid eration. No pdssible objection to itsirikes us at this time4hnd as we live in ant age of experiments, it .vould do no harm to try this one. A single set of cylinders would wear as long as:a half dozen hoats, so that in the long run, the expense of fitting thetm would be verystall.-Balt. Sun.
