Can't Shine -We inform the young gentle man, if we dare call him so, who, no doubt offi ciated as Groomsman, for one or more of the couples of colored "ladies and gemmen," whose names lie forwarded for publication, as having been joined in the bands of wedlock, in, and near Greenwood, that he "can't come it in these diggins," as we at all time require the name of soie responsible white "gemmen," before we insert marriage notices. We are not as easily hoaxed by a white black man, as we are sorry to see our friend of the Abbeville Banner has lately been. We have determined, if possible, to find out who our white negro correspondent is, and for his trouble, we will forward him a half column of our ' pie." which we feel satis fied will not be effaced by "wet weather." We "have an idea." who the 'gemmen" is. Dixron B. Lewis-There is bitt little doubt, but that the Governor of Alabama will appoint this genitleman to the seat in the U. S.

A large portion of it is pledged for ad vances, anid not a little fihr more than it is worth. consequently those who have made tfiese ad vances are holding on for an improvement to enable themselves to get out without a loss." Thurston the Forger.-The Mllledgeville pa pers state that this individual has been pardon. ed by the Governor of Georgia, and delivered to the Executive of this State, (at Charleston) where he is to be tried for the crime of Forge ry. He left Milledgeville in charge of the agents of South Carolina.

Great Conflagration in: A palachicola.-Cus temn House Burnt.-The Apalachicola Adverti ser of the 9th inst. contains the account of a de structive fare at that place, on the night of the 8th inst. The Custom House was entirely destroyed. The books and records were pre served. Three or four stres in the row of brick buildings on Water. between Panton and Cen tre-streets, were burnt, with their congtents.

Cone, of the First Baptist 'Church of thiscity, performed the sacred rite of baptism'yesterday upon a young man named IsaacAaroi, who is a con vert from the Jewish faith, and the first that has ever been, baptised into that communion in this country. A large concourse of persons were present to witness the ceremony." If we are--not mistaken,there was two or I three of the same sect, baptized some years i since, in Charleston, by the Rev. Basil Manly, whilst he was'Pastor of the Baptist Church in -that city. since the above'was in type, we find that a correspondent of the Augusta Chronicle in noticing the paragraph from the Her*I, says: "Ten years ago, the Rev. Dr. Manly, now President of Alabama University, received by immersion into the let Baptist Church of Char leston, three Jewish converts, two gentlemen and a lady. One of them, the Rev. Moses Snares, has been an ordained preacher of the gospel for the last' five or six years, and has himself administered christian baptism to many subjects. These facts I vouch for." The Indagator.-The Editor of the Hamburg Journal proposes publishing a monthly Agri cultural paper, under the above title. at the low price of 50 cents per annum. Each number of the paper will -contain sixteen columns of choice Agricultural matter. We hope our Agricural friends will all step forward and sup. port the editor in this laudsble undertaking, as the price is within the power of every one we cordially wish him an overwnelming subserip tion list. 117 Macajab Pendleton, the Father of the great Temperance Reformation, died in Nelson county, Va., on the 9th of February, aged near ly 86. He is believed to have been the fore most leader in the present great temperance reformation in Virginia, if not in the Union. Before the year 1800. it is known that he sign. ed a temperance pledge, and carried it about, soliciting and obtaining signatures. His own pledge he kept faithfully till his death,extending it to wine and cider, which he considered as al coholic drinks, differing from whiskey only in strength. Afaics at Washington.-The Charleston Mercury of the 20th inst. says: "All accounts concur now in the conclusiou that nothing will be done or seriously attempted on the Tariff. Those who have been promising for the party have reckoned without their host, unless they too have supposed that going for principles, means giving pledges, without intending to re deem them." Scarlatina.-The South Carolinian of the t 18th inst.. contains the following paragraph re lative to the ravages made by this disease, in 1 the family ofa citizen of the town of Columbia. i "It has never been our lot before to record I so melancholy a bereavement in one house as I that which occurred in the family of Mr. A. C. Squier of this town. In less than the space of one month they have lost five children !-all, but one, with Scarlatina: On the 19th uIt. Esther, an infant, died; on the 6th inst., Elihu, aged 5 years; on the 7th. Julia. aged 3; on the 12th Clark, aged 6, and on the 14th Louisa, C aged 9! Not a solitary bud has been left on the parent stem! All gone !-but gone we trust to I form a wreath in Heaven." 07 In justice to the Hon. Wm. C. Preston, we copy the following note, from him to the Editor of the Southern Chronicle. COL~UMBu. 10th A pril. Mr. WEirc:-Will you have the goodness to state in your next paper. that in the remarks which H. L. Pinkney. Es'q., made at the Demn ocratic meeting in Charlestn, last week. he was mistaken in attributing to me an opinion in fa vor of the assumption of the State deL-ts by the General Government. On the contrary, I ex pressly denied such a power in Congress. Your ohd't. serv't. WM. C. PRESTON. Thue Ohio Militia -T he Washington Spec. later, states that - an act paased the last session! of the Ohio Legislature, to dispense with thei training of the rank and file of the rnilitia in time of peace. Each able bodied sane white man, between the ages of twenty-one and forty five, not legally exempt, is to be enrolled. and each p~erson so enrolled is to pay fifly cents a year in lieu of military duty. The hill provides for a complete organization and training of the uniform militia, of all able bodied white men betwveen eighteen and forty-five." CLAY AIn ADAMtS.1 At the time when the Presidential elec tion went to the House of Representatives, I the Legislature of iKentucky by a vote of< 69 to 21, requested the mem'bers of Con gress from that State to vote for Andrew i Jackson, and they declared that he wasi the choice of the people of Kentucky, by a a vote of 73 to 11. Thbe Senate adoptedc the same resolutions by a large majority,e and it was well known that such was the wvill of the penple ; for no Adams ticket a was run in Kentucky at all, so unpopulur was he in that section of country; yet Henry Clay voted for Adams and led the Ken tucky delegation to follow in the same track, in open defiance of his constituents,a that, as was afte-rwardsaconfessed,be maight1 be made Secretary of State and be placed in the "line of safe precedents" for the succession. We are told, however, that this was not corruption-not at all rep- a rehensible thus to sell electoral votes for a price, and that Henry Clay is a very trust worthy immaculate politician! What I Kentucky thought of the matter at thee time, may be estimateud from the fact that in 1828. it gave a majority in favor of Jackson and against the Clay and Adams c coalition, of no less than 7994 votes. The charge of corruption in this matter, I it should be remembered, was made be-a fore the treachery had been cormtunica ted. II Henry Cay acted conscientiously: itn betraying Kentucky by his vote fora Adams, a man too with whom he had an I "adjourned question of veracity" as to affairs at Ghent, it was in hi, power to 1I have proved that conscience alone im pelled him, by a refusal of the reward of-r fered as a compensation for his conduct. H ad he rejected the office, then something e gnight have been said on his behalf. But he pocketed the fee ; and his colleagues ' confessed that it wvas for this fee, that the vote had been given to Adams. There c Gen. WADDY TuoMPsoti, late Minister if the United:States to Mexico, arrived says the N. O. Bulletin, of the.I3th inst:) n this city yesterday, on his: return. He :ame in the U. S. brig Bainbfidge, Com, nander Mattison, which sailed from Vera )ruz on the 1st inst. Gen. Thompson, previous to his depar ore, visited Santa Anna. at his country eat, and obtained, by his earnest solicita ion in their behalf, the liberation of the -emainder of the Texan prisoners taken in September 1842, at San Antonio de Bex ir. Gen. T. speaks very highly of the iandsome conduct of the Mexican Chief n granting him this request, which was jot official, Gpn. T. having resigned his ,lace as Minister and already taken leave if the Government. This was not the irst request of the kind whiclr Gen. T. gad had occasion to prefer. He had alrea ly been instrumental in procuring the lib :ration of a number of the prisoners who were taken at San Antonio, as well as of teveral of those who capitulated at Mier. Gen. Thompson, we understand, will -emain but a day or two in the city. The number of the prisoners whom our ate Minister had the pleasure on his de )arture to procure the liberation of, is thirty ive; ofthese, thirty-one came on the Bain ridge, the remainder preferring to con inue for the present in Mexico. These prisoners had been confined about eigh. een months, mostly at the Castle of Pe ote. They express their gratitude and sstimation of Gen. T. in the strongest terms. The Texian prisoners still remain ag in Mexico are the survivors of the un ortunate Mier capitulation, about 100, as me are told, in number. The following list comprises the names >f those who were released on the occasion ,fGen. Thompson's farewell, viz: Wm. Bugg, Jas. H. Brown, Edward frown, T. B. Beck, L. Colquhoun. David r.

As we were in a hurry to get tome, and somewhat gratified that we had scaped (though narrowly) so "ugly a ustomer," we did not wait to see the end if so frightful a chase. During the last nine or fen months we tave occasionally heard of mad dogs in lifierent parts of this and the neighboring )istricts, it is probable the disease will pread as the warm weather increases. t would be well for persons in the Upper istricts to guard against its effects in ~very possible way-and perhaps the urest platn would be, to get rid of about ne-half of the dogs, and keep a good look >ut for "stranger curs" of suspicious char icter.- Greenville Mountaineer. From the Greenville Mountaineer. Ma. CLAY AND -rS PRtEInENef. Mr. Editor-A short time since, an in elligent Whig lady of Kentucky, while >n a visit to South Carolina. remarked hat she would think a great deal more of Mlr. Clay if he would remain at home, natead of goinig about electioneering, like I candlidate for Sheriff, or some other small uffice. when compared to the Presidency >f the United States ; she justly considers uis tour through the different States aspri ies of demagogueism, and said he ought o be above it, for he was not only lowering iown dignity, but, if possible, the dig tity of the high office to which he aspires. The good lady had, no doubt, for rotten the motto of the Whig party in 10, which was, we stoop to conqguer. 'Yes, gentlemen Whigs, you did stoop. ut I will not say how low." What a ontrast there is in the conduct of Mr. Clay tad Mr. Calhoun, in relition to the pend og Presidential election; while the former s acting the sycophant, 'and courting the miles of every body, merely for the sake f promotion, the latter is moving on the yen tenor of his way, with all the dignity' ad firmness that becomes an American tatesmnan and patriot. M From the Mountaineer. Mr Editor--I discovered a week or wo ago, that the Columbia Chronicle eemed to rejdiee that the South Carolina tail Road Company had given Mr. Clay ad his travelling friends a free passage on aid Road. Now, sir, I, as an up coon ry Stockholder, wish to know if they have I right to grant a free passage to any man ur set of men. As much as I admire Mr. Jalhoun, I should oppose his travelling, rae of charge. over a road belonging to a ompany of Stockholders. X. Gambling.-A "reformed gambler," so aolled, named Green, is lecturing in St. ouis on the subject of gambling. He as published a volume wherin he exposed 11 the tricks of the trade-the manner in rhich convexed a "reflector" is manufac tired and managed. His disclosures are stonding. The Southern gamester. ave addressed a tong epistle to him, in which they avow their determination to ill him when good opportunity offers. To his he replies in the papers as becomes a erormer of courage and stamina. "Anti aming" pledges have been gotten up un ler his directio. -md fortmidable societies athiered together. This is all gammon. ['he passions .cannot be putlio ligatures aid strictures. Life itself is a game of hance; all trade-every avocatton-all notives are Camen. ne tien chief aim of every individual is to play out his band-to the best' advantage. There .will:alwiys be .people to gratify an inborn inclination to stake'their possessions on:the cast of.a die or the-face of a card, and allfthe socie= ties under the sun. cannot eradicate-the horrible and destructive practices known as and-classed under the head. of gaming. The motive which impels men to the faro table, or that of the rouge et noir. is a part of their existence, and one cannot cease to exercise itself while the other lasts. commercial. HAMBURG, April 16. Cotton .-Last weekour market advanced full 4 a ot. on previous prices, but as New York prices appear to have given way i ct. our deal ers are disposed to follow in the wake. The receipts are very light here, not averaging over 300 bales per week. The market will fluctuate, no doubt, until the next European accounts come to hand; which, if better, will spur up prices here. Our quotations to-day, are from 6 to 71 cents, and for an extra choice lot 8 cts. could be obtained-prncipal sales, 71 to 74 cents.-Journal. AUGUSTA, April 18. Coton.-Since' the arrival of the Caledonia, much fluctuation has been experienced in the northern and southern markets for cotton. It seems however that the sales have been large, and that a large proportion of the exports have been for England. At the rate that shipments have been made the stocks in the American ports will soon be 'reduced to what they were at the same period Inst year. With regard to the extent of the crop, we have not as yet suf ficient means to determine what it will be, though if we were to judge by our weekly statement, it will amount to more than 1,900, 000. In a few weeks we will be able to make a more accurate estimate of the crop. The re ceipts in New Orleans and Mobile continue to be large; but it is our opinion that the decrease in those two ports will be. as it has heretofore been, very sudden. 'In the beginning of next week the news by the Acadia witl be received, though we may before receive five or six days later dates by some of the regular packets be. tween New York and Liverpool.-Constitu.
