Though we fear not those who would injure our interest, because the-more \ve are trampled on. the bet ter we will thrive still. we wish to have the consolation of knowing that our course meets with response from the hearts of freemen. To conduct a Press in South Carolina in opposition to the established mandates of those who dic tate, is like treading on the forbidden ground of some eastern mosque-no christian dare pass it, unless barefoot. Yet we have dared to make a venture on this land, and ferret out that which should be remoted. And now we leave our cause in the hands of our friends, and present our efforts to their con sideration, to say, whether we must be disap pointed or be su-ip-rted with liberality and kindness. The Journal is published once a Week, at the very low pri.c of Two DOt.ARS per annum, in advance, and contains at least twelve columns' of reading matter.

Things that I have seen.-I have seen a farmer build a house so large and fithe that the Sheriff turned him'out of doors., - Ihave seen a young man sell a good farm. turn merchant, break and die in an insane hospital.

The regular employment' had a most whlfolesome: inffue'ce on his mental dis ease, and he is now in the bosom of his family, fully restored to reas'on,'after be ing detanged fof three yiars. This '-el'm pie may serve to show the judgment with which the insane are treated in this admir able institution. - They are not regaraed as madmen to be dieaded, but im a kind'oI synipathizing spirit they are dealt with, and few are so bereft of reason, as not to be sensible' of such treatment. The pa tients are furnished with the means of rid 'ig, amusing themselves in several ways, have musical entertainments, a good libra ry, and during the last year, originated among themselves a weekly newspaper, containing original articlesmapy of which, says the physician, "would compare favor bly with mqch of the periodical literature of the day .

The efect of it has been proved in the increased number of radical cures:-.resbyteridd.

In the'appendix to the report of that institution, recently publi.hed, we find the following description'or this than and the strange method of his madness: We must not omit a passing notice of an incurable, but occgsipohally -useral, and on many accounts an interesting patient, styling himself "the cattle drover, sports man and financier extraordinary to the in stitution and' mankind at large." He also claims to be clerk in the new buildings, superintendent of the public works in the State, proprietor of the steamboat L'ehigh, mineral- and botanical doctor, &c. His delusions are as nurserous and capricious as his character and, qualifications are unique and surprising. He is a stout, ac tive, well built man, with a handsome sincere countenance, who is sure to ie the first to meet you in the gallery. and en deavor to slide into your good opinion with a sly wink, a coaxing smile, and a gentle voice-wishing~ immediately to buy six teen hundred head of fat cattle, four years old, or ready to loan any am'ount of'mo ney that can be desired which is forth~itih produced in large padkages'of iank bills, manufactured by himself, and :payable to his order, at every corporatioir; in' the Unio-n, from Florida to Maine: He is never supplied with' a' lebsin than a hundred and seventy-fiveilions, upon the ".best speelb paying banks."

A Serious Joke.-The Pittsburg Chron ile has heard of a wedding, which' some days-since took place at Lawrenceville, near that city, which was intended as a joke, but which has been declared-binding as the parties ?were lawfully "joined to gether," by an Alderman, who also, in addition to his other duties,- preaches oc casionally.

Singular Incident.-A gentleman from- Marlborough informs us, says the' Hartford Times, of asingular circumstance connected with an affray between a hawk mnd a hen,'on Sunday last. The haik a very large one measuring from wing, to Wing, over four feet; pounced upon a hen, and raised her asliortdistance in the air, when from some cause, the hen became dis engaged;" or so much obstructed the pro eress of- the hawk, that he piiched'down. wards and wen't directj into d well ! A colored woman nam'ed Clara Burden, see ing them go into the well, ran to see how matters progressed and -found the hawk lying upon his backin the daier, and the hee standing upcda him ! The. womap. lowered the bucket and safely secured the' hen. She then held' the head of the hawk under water with a pole and finaly secured him also. All hawks should learn from this that they, cannot steal with-impunity. The chicken-hatching niachine now be- - ing exhibited .in the city of New York, is thus noticed in the Tribune: Chicken Manufactory.-Nature is get ting superfluous. We -rather think she will soon be voted out of fashion and-dis pensed with.

The trouble of attend ing them is slight, the heat costs very lit tle, and the chickens crack their several shells and walk up to their dough and wa ter like wood choppers to dinner or sailors to their grog... They are clean, strong and livery, grow fast and rarely die, (not being draggled, through the grass,) and whoever has a htching machine can have 'Spring Chickens' every week in the year, and at small expense. If you could only invent a mgchinejoi- laying eggs now, hens would be done with. ftints to Lovers of Flowers.-A most beautiful and easily attained show oFever gren's'in'winter may be had by a very simple plan, which has been found to an swer remarkably well on a small scale. If 'geranium branches taken from healthy and luxurious trees just before the winter set's'in',cut'as for slips,' and immersed in soap and water, they will, after drooping for a few days, shed their leaves, put forth fresh ones, and continue in the finest vi gouY all the winter. By placing a number of bottles filled in flower baskets, with moss to conceal the bottles, a show of evergreens is easily insured for a whole seaion. They: require no fresh water.
