CALHOUN, Subject to the decision of the Democratic Republican Convention, to assemble in May. 184., as recomnenaed by the states of Maryland. Michigan, Kentucky. Lou isiana, New Hampshire, Massachusetts. Alabama and Mississippi. TO DELINQUENT SUBSCRIBERS. We once more call the attention of our dis tant Delinquent Subscribers to a settlement of their accounts, some of which has been forward. ed them six months ago, and of which there has been no more notice taken, than if they were blank paper. The troubles and cares of a proprietor of a newspapet is bad enough at the best, but to be weekly cat-irmg for a num her of subscribers hundreds of miles dis:ant from him, who must know his want of the needful, and who refuses to forward theiryearly stipend. knowing, on account of the smallness of the demand, the difficulty of collecting it, is not only hard, but shows a disposition on the part of the subscriber to act dishonest. After having waited so long, and not wishing to act rashly towards any of our patrops, we will now inform them, that all those who have received their accounts from this office, during the past spring and summer, by mail. and have never attended to answering them, that those which remain unanswered on the 1st day of February next, will have their names erased from our list, and placed upop ck list which we in tend publishing monthly. 07 The Legislature of this State meets at Columbia, on Monday next the 27th inst. 17 At a called meeting of the Edgefield Philosophic.l and Agricultural Society. on Monday the 20th inst.

We hope onr ciii. zens will, one and all, assist those wvorthies, who have commenced this good work, for the benefit and preservation of their property, in such manner as they may deem expedient, so as to enable them to carry out their good work.

We will, when in the wrong. acknowledge our faults. btut we are not exactly satisfied at having to bear the faults of others, at least to out own injury. We are, and ever shall be thankful to ottr patrons and friends, for anmy informationa in re gard to the irregularities of the arrival or deliv ery of our paper, as we shall, at all times, try to remedy tenm.

A mong the pleasing incidents connected nlih the nanilestations of respeet and re g.ard shown by our citizens to Gen. Ber Ir:nd, on the occasion of his recent brief visit to Balti'oie, it alfords 'is gratifica tion to refer to one which only came to our knowledge % esterday. The Gen. anid his suite, it is known, were accommodated with elegant apartments and all their at tendant appliances, ti 'he City H otel, and every attention was paid to the comfort of the illustrious guest. On the morning of the day of his departure when the Gen. sent for his hill fur the purpose of liq-,ida it. the call was answered by the worthy landlord in psersiu. lie stated to his guest, with an hon, si candor and unall'ected fee ling of manner which showed how sincere ly his heart was in the matter, that he cold not consent to receive any comupen sation-that the high esteemr in which he held the character of the Gent al. both as a gallant s-ddier, and a faithful, devoted friend-and further, that the senti ents of lively gratituide towards the French tnatini for their impriant aid to this coon try in the Revolutionary struggle, w ;aiel had been impressed upon him %w hen a boy by a fatther who was himself engaged ii that strugglc--were all considerations which prompted himin to say that the hill was already discharged. This avowal, made in thi- manier and terns just stated, wag any; thing bui what the Genertl w;ts prepared flr, but his subsequent ellerts to elfect a - reversal of it on the part of the worthy head of the City Hotel, were of no avail.- Boltimore Anerican.

The extremes of our market are 54 to 71 cts.-princi pal sales 68 to 74 cis.

From a long acquaintance. and a so...t in-, terourse of the most friendly and-intimate charact,-r, the writer feels warranted in giving to the public such incidents of an eventful life as seem to he well authenticated; though he feels conscious. that much is necessarily omit ed whi.h; if known, would be curious to the general reade-r, and exceeditgly interesting to the friends of the deceased - Dr BRAZIER was born in London, of highly respectable parents, as he has informed the, writer, and was cousin to Capt. LaERT of the tritish Navy, who fell mortally wounded in the Java, captured by the Constitution, and of General Lambert who cotmm.inded the Bri tish reserve at the battle of New Orleans. -his connections were such as to give hin fa vor in the eye of the British Government, and' at an early age-probably at 21 or 22 years of nye -le received a Commission, during the Premiership of Lord Chathan, as collector of 1 the port of St. Christopher. one of the West India Isands. Being an enthusiast in religion. however, lie resigned the olfi-e of Collector and engaged in the duties ofMissionary among the black population of that, or on'e of the sam,- group of Islands. preaching the doctrines of the celebrated Relornmer, John Vesley. AI.uut the year 1791 he was invited by a So. r -tv of Primitive Wesleyan 3lethodicis.'to take charge of a congregation in Charleston, S C., which invitution lie ncceptecd,'nd arrived in Charleston some time in that year. The so ciety or congregation, however. being still ni der the care of the Minister whom lie was up. pointed -o succeed, he determined to enter up on the study of Medicine, and for this purpose, went to Pihil delphia, it is believed. in 1792., or 1793. Shortly after his arri cal in that city, he published a pall phlet on some subject con nected either with theology or politics, which Troui the holiness and originnliry of its views, attracted the attention of Ur. Rush, who. upon asrertaining the niame of the author, invited him ti become a student in his ollice. This invitation was accepted; and throughout his stay at Philadelphia which emuibraced a period nf' about 2 years, and during which titne lie availed :imielf of the instruction ofthe Penn sylvania University; he continued to receive from hisdistingnished patron, the most marked assisiance an : attention. The inst six months of 1795. lie was permitted, by a licence from the ollicers of thst instiiuti..t:, to practice airutng the inmates of the 1'hiaadelphia Alms llotse. lie tben returned to the South, and practised medicine at and neir Augusta Georcia. and in Edgtield District, until 1303, when upon the death of the incumbent, lie was called to take charge of the Chich in Charleston. to which he hamd been previous y invited in 1791. But owing to indiipositton or some other cnutz, alter preaching only nine nit hs, he abandon ed the pulpit, and i emoved to Colhubia. where tie praictised medicine a short time: and thence, he removed to the neighborho od of Ld:elield Court Iouse, where lie continued to practice his profession, until -about 1d17.
