TitunsDAr, AUoUST 20, 1840. WNe eall parlicular attention to the extract which we inake to-day, from the nddress of Col. Perry. to the voters of Greenville Dis tr;ct. Co. Perry as is ktiowt, has always been nppiocted to tie Independent Treasury. Not withi-tandint,he has cast the weight of his infin enee in favor of the Admitnistratioe. His bio. graphic sketch of 31r. Van Buren. is an able answer to the iumnerots grave charges which have been perforimed against him by the Whigs. Rain.-Some heavy showers of rain have fallen since the publication of our last number. in this District. In some sections, the fodder tas been itich injured. We are regncstct by M. L. Bonham, E-qj. to state, that he conlinues as a - didae for the Legislatunre ol' Sotil Caroli ttn. The report in ciarculatint, to the con trary, is unatuthorized by him. We were highly gratified. when at the ltte puhtic meet jut" tinar Dointonsville, in this Distrie. the H-on. A. P. Rule: though not a iartisan. declared himself in fuvor of ir. Van Biren for the Presaietnry. Sinee his elevniion to th, Beach..JtlgeB.hasnin aled but little in parry contests, as his time n% as ettgraassed in the performance of hisju dinta duties. H owever, he did not hesitate to express hisopinions to his friends, when :tin ocea4ion presented itself. At this jLnC tioi, by far the most important, since the -nemaiorntble cotntestt between Adams and .1 tferson. Juder- B. htas deemed it htis do iv tao conie otur hblly andl decidedly, be l.-re his fellow citizens, on thesidle of Mlar ait Van JUnre'n, beenttse the latter lias ta setn a fenr'!ess stand against Abolition and a Nationial Ba;nk. Judge Bi. has long heen known as nit able pttblic servant in Soth 'arolitn, and the weight of his tuinmo will ndd nh to the Demtocratic enttse in this sectionfof the State. A large number of Whigs assembled at 'l ariont C. H1. on the Fourt h ofiJuly, in or der to eelebraite our Nationtal Anniversary. An oration was delivetred by iblajor J. F". Livinemoni. The tonets were drank in fa vnrr of Gen. Hatrrison, Hetiry Clay, a Na tiotnal Bank, hard cider, log cabins and Federal pri nciples gentersally. Some Sonathern Wh'ligs boast much of thte inifluence whlich Mr. WVebster has ex erted, and is now exertinig in favor ofthe iis'itutions of the South. They speak of somte of his ptublic speeches in which he !Iraisedl thte Sotttheo WVhigs and Southern people. We believe all his friendship for thte South, to lie hollow atid utnreal. His w hole political coturse comnplet ely prove. it WVe doa not charge him with being ati Abolitionist, but few men have done more to strenethen their party than he. In the war of Gent. Jackson upon Sotuth Carolina, .Mir. Webster. thotugh an anicient enemy, was fotind battling 1by his side, rrady nnid anximons to give htis support to atny anal cetey mecasure, which the Gen cral Govertnmient mihit etmploy tat cer~ce a Sovercign State.
