Now, n myzindMr. Preston thinks that
-si interest will.etpromoted, by putting
stoiptafis intheoffice, and in that way
*rem "ierate him for thetrouble he took in
getting up a eertain Barbaue dinner, and
distributing Ogle's speech throughout our
strict, tring the late contest. The Cap
lii is a gentlemanly man, and of the five
applicants for the office,,l think the best
competest . to discharge the duties of it,
but I expect he will find it hard to obey
he edict of his new masters, " so far
shalt thou go, and no farther," as he is ex
tremely fond of being thought a politician.
You are unacquainted with the Captain,
but by reminding you of a remark made by
you, whilst here last fall, on the day of
the Preston Barbacue,- you will no doubt
recollect him: "there is a man not satis
.fed to walk, but- seems.determined to ride
into office." Our worthy ex ojcio Presi
dent, in his'address, wished the people to
..believe he was opposed to removing Pffi
cers for opinion sake, but here he has
acted diferently, by removing Mr. -Rawls,
who, I believe, never did more than expres
his opinion by the hallot box, and appoint
ing one who Marshaled the Tippecanoe
Club of our town, and electioneered on all
occasions by day or night; but this, like
all our ex-ofcio President's promises and
acts, will be found wanting, when weigh
ed in the balance ofjustice."
We extract from the Carolinian of the
29th uil., the fullowing:
- " IGENERAL POST OFFiC,
April 19, 1841.
"Sia:-I have been instructed by the
President of the United States. to infurm
you that in his opinigon, the public interest
will be promoted by a change of Postmas.
ter at Columbia, S. C.
"Your obdt. ervt.,
'_1?LWGRANGER.
"The public interest,' indeed! Now,
there is not a respectable man in Colum
bia who will maintain the truth of this, or
that there has ever been a better Postmtaster
in Columbia. ,We have heard respectable
Whigs say, again and again, that the Post
-Office never was so well managed, as since
Mr. Rawls has had control of it; and we
firmly believe, that no Post Office in the
United States, has beern better managed.
'That Mr. Rawls is a decided politician,
and intelligent advocate of Repulican prin
eiples, is not denied; and need not be.
No0 office could buyv his principles or liber
ty of speech,or those of any honest patriot;
and he who would sell thema for any offilce,
is unworthy to hold otie. But he is no
electioneerer ; never interferes with men's
votes, or exercises any influence hoeyond
the ordinary freedom of speech ; and tno
one will pretend that there ever has been
or will be any diff'erence in his course, tt
or out of office. And that he has never,
directly or indirectly used his office parti
ally, in any way, or made any distinctions
in it between friends or opponents, wye feel
confidently assured. This is all th~e Gov
ernment has a particle of right to require.
of him, and that this has been his course,
we have heard respectable Whigs admit,
again and again.
"Again: His removal is ntot a mere refu
sal to re-appoint, at the expiration of his
term; for to that, wc cruld make noa ob
jection ; but an actual turning out, without
cause, long before the end of his termt.
(See the remarks of our correspondent
"Macon," on this point.) He was reap
pointed and commissioned for fousr years,
from the 2nd of July last, when his pre
.vious term expired ; and though the Presi
dent has an undoubted right to remove h im
for cause founded in abuse of office, yet we
utterly deny the right to remove, as in
this ease, without cause: And the charge,
soithout proof or specifecation, that "the
public interest" required his removal, if in'
tended, as it may be construed, to imply
any official misconduct, or anytihing derog
atory to his character, as an officer, a man,
or a citizen, we believe to be a wanton,
unfeeling, and utswarrantable slander ou an
old, faithful, hotnest and incorruptible offi
cer, tma, and citizen.
"That this shameless removal has been
effected by Colonel Preston, and solely for
opinion's sake, we presume no one can or
will doubt! And is not this tr amall busi
nesustosay the least of it, for a United
States Seuator, and one who publicly and
solemnly pledged himself, in. Charlestoti,
to "prescribe proscriptioa." Yet it is ofa
piece with alt his pledges-he who has for
years been prescribing Sotr Carolina, in
the Senate-h -votis, her voice, her inter
est,ad-her- ptnciples!--he who evident
ly hus not forgiven the Postinasier wvho was
too honest to wink at hisalluses of his frank
ing privileges, and-who, whben assailed by
him in the Senate, exposed-the gross assault
.in the manner it deservqd,
.But even suppose it was wron (which
we utterly deny,) ror a Post Master toex

ions hereafter, as he has done. heretofore.
And'as we presume he has not sold his

more than an ordinary.Clerkship,.it is rea

19,780 persons counted in the FuneralPro

For the Advertiser.
Ma. EDITo,-Sir,-The subject or
Messrs. A. B. & C's. remarks which ap
peared in your paper of the 15th ult. rel
ative to the "Poor house system," claims
due consideration of a comparatively hap
py and syinpathising community. If the
public mind could be properly directed
to this suhject, in our own District, our
loreign charities, like that of our Northern
brethren, would no doubt return us a more
grateful harvest. We are all sensible of
the deprivations of many of our citizens,
some of whom are actually destitute of
food for the body, others of comfortable
clothing, and other unable to procure eith
era religious or business education; thus
it is that generation after generation are
destined to ruin and despair. The cause
quences of such a state, to our boasted
Republic, are too obvious to need com
muuton.
We agree with A. B. & C, in the ne
cessity for economy ,generally, but to the
poor there is to danger of cring on theuside
oe libteraity, our present contributions are
such as we think can .well be afiorded.
As regards the system of bestowing, at
though not perfect, its improvement, for
the last few years, ie ample evidence of
the importance which charitable commis
sioners attach to it.
With due deference to the views of A.
B. & C. it appears to us, that a Poor house
isindispensable, even throgh the system
under which it is managed be a bad one.
In behalf of the Poor, we would invite
A. B. & C. to visit the Poor house and in
ystigate Cothenselvesttyyca. then be
perfections and to make -sggestions for
its reformation.
The propriety, as proposed by A. B.
& C, of putting money into the hands of
the pensioners themselves, for their relief,
and allowing them to remain among friends
and relations, also appears to us imwpolitic.
The necessity for a pension at all, is proof,
of its impropriety "Deliver us from our
friends," is an old adage and in this in
stance, we may more properly say from
our relations likewise.
If a Poor house be necessary, let us
have one, if the system be extravagant
ecotomise it, but if we commence the work
of abolishing every thing which is imper
fect our labour will be endless.
The rich wve ktnow, tare daily becoming
more rich, while the poor are becoming
more poor, and catn the former deny them
selves, one of the greatest comforts of their
abundance, viz: that of administering to
the necessities of the tter?
We observe, that A. B & C. enumer
ated the farm, among the expenses to be
lopped off. We cannot but think it is not
tme less necessary to industry atnd good
hbirs in the stubjeicts, some of whom, are
not only able, but desirous of labouring,
snd should this he kept up with imp~rove
ments. wvho can say but a few yeara will
make it an essential item in defraying ex
[pense ?
In the close, we would suggest that the
commissioners have their regular mneetings
at the Poor hous.', and to their already
charitable services, add those of mutual
assistance to the laudable design. of the
present manager, in educating and aflord
religious oportunities to the destitut, and
unfortunate; that they invite those who
feel for the misfortunes of others, to visit
the Poor house, make it a matter of inter
est, ao Assylum for the Poor, a bridge upon
which the mained and blind may travel
safely through life.-Should they thus set,
omr citizens will then show, that they duly
appreciate the wisdom and benevolence of
our Legislature which established the pre
sent system. The feelinigs of the good and
chariable, wve trust will he enlisted in
this matter. CHARITY.

Since our ieport of the market for last week,
prices have not materially changed. About jc.
may be taken ofW. on good fair lots. Extremes
84 a 104 cts. Principal sales 10 cents, Caroli

and meet the supply arriving with animation at
our quotations. The next accounts from Ea
rope, will no doubt raise or depress our market,
as the buyers seem to look forward to ethim in
their present purchases.
AGousTa, April, 29.
Couton.-Our Cotton market has been very
active during the greater part of the week'jnst
closed, and prices improved daily until Mon
day afternoon, when the advance amounted to
jc. per lb. on all qualities.- On .ilonday were
ceived advices trom Liverpool up to3d inst.,
shewing a decline of id-tojd per lb. in that mar
ket during the last week. This news had the
effect of checking any further advance in our
market since then, though the business has not
been so large as it was during the first part oil
the week, some large lots have changed hands,
at rates'which were barely je. below those
which prevailed before their receipt. Our rac
tor. owing to the reduced stock, the very light
receipts, and the small amount which is to cnme
in during the remainder of the season, seem
determined not to submit to any reduction. in
deed, they appear to be quite indifferent about
elling even at current rates, as they think the
article must improve when it is known in Eu
rope that there will be so great a falling ofin the
crop. We quote extremes 10j a 12 cents, for
