Obser. t vor, a religious paper, upod the Military Enicamprent system of the State. will be found 6elow. -We are not prepared to say with the editor, that the law establishing encampments "is productive of much greater injury than benefit." But we do j believe, that-much evil of a gross charactor i is occasionally attendant upon encamp -ments. which it becomes all good- citizens to check as much as possible. This can in a great measure, be accomplished, by a i strict evforcement of law. . MILITARY ENCAMPMETS. By a law of this State', provision is made, for military encampments, compas- C ed-of the officers of each brigade, to be held for five days every two years. From the reports which we have heard of the recent encampment, in the vicinity of t Charleston, it seems obvious that the law referred to, is productive of much greater - injury than berefit. One object. and per haps ihe main one of the Legislature, in paesing the act, was, to provide for a more. efficienrmilitarf defediee. in cases or edirl gency, by bringing the officers of the sev - e brigades together,.and subjecting them to the discipline, and instructina them in the tactics of a regularly organized army. Now, whatever may be gained in this respect, it .admits or a serious. question a whether more, much more, is not lost in the tendency of these encampments to break down those naoral restraiits which. v after all. aff'ord the surest protection to any -community. The discipline of an encamp ment, however rigid-. cannot prevent visi - tern from attending. And it is out of theh question to enforce discipline as in a regu lar army. From the reports that have b reached us, we are inclined to believe,'a that however free a. great proportion of t those whose duty called them there, from L any improprieties of conduct, there were t others who availed themselves of the oe ~ casion for throwing off-thc-se restraints which are essential to wholsome morals. ~ And it-is in this way that "evil commun icat ions corrupt good morals"--that sober mnen become druukards-and that a loose rein is given -to all the vile affections of the heart. Details are unnecessary. It mayt however, be proper to remark, that t; while there were many whom no tempta- d tion could seduce todepart from the strict p rules of.virtue and sobriety, this was far si from being universally the case, There e was much *deep drinking ; and whatever anJ wherever tlat is the case, the attend ant immoralhties are matters of course. It will therefore, depend upon the so ber, moral teople of tlie State to decide :Ii whether they will retain upon their statute E book a Law which is productive of little G benefit, but -whaich is the proliaic source of - I immense, incalculable evil. i From the Mountaineer. ANDERsoit C. H'.. April 14, 1845. A mneeting or our citizenis was held this morning, in front of the Court House, on a the subject of the dreadful conflagration at o this place on thie morning of the-9th'inst. a On motion J. P. Reed.

Fire.-At about 10 o'clock, on Tuesday vening last, our citizens were alarmed by he cry of fire, which- % as found to proceed rom a stable on the Post Office square, ielonging to James Boatwright. Esq. 5uch was .he - combustible nature of the uilding in which the fire originated, and he adjoining teneIn.nts. that the feariful -lemeat threatened for a time to defy ev -ry effort to arrest, much less subdue it.

The evening was perfectly calm, and toihing but this circumstance, and the ac ive, vigorous and persevering exertions f the Independent- Fire Engine Compa iy, upon which too much praise cannot e bestowed, prevented an extensive con agration. involving the entire square on rhich this office stands, and perhaps the djacent squares, in utter destruction, 7here can be no doubt that this fire was the rork of an incendiary ; making four at !mpts we believe, on this spuare, within ie present year, and seriously admonish - ;ig our citizens not to relax in their vigi ince.-Tem. Advocate, 17th instant. From the Greenville Mountaiacer, April 18. When our paper went to press last reek, the Court of Sessions and Common 'leas was still sitting, and did not adjourn nmil 12 o'clock on. Saturday night. A ast amount of business wns transacted ut there were so many cases which could ot be tried foir the want of time, that an xtra term was -ordered to be held on the bird Monday in July next, which order rill be found in our advertising columns. On Saturday morning, A. H. Jones was irought to the Bar to receive sentence for he murder of his step. other. of which 'ence ie was convicl on the Vednies ay previous. After a tew solemn atind ppropriate remarks by -Judge Wardlaw, lie prisoiner ,vas sentenced to be hung on he first Friday in June. On Mouday last, about 3 o'clock P.

Though We have quite a large batch of ublic journals before us, a pretty careful in pection of them adds but little to onr knowl dge of affairs in Mexico. Tihe country seeins unquil under the new administration, at least 'e sould conclutde as much from the totne of te press. Of Sante Anna the papers say a aod deal but nothing definite . Heliadi not men tried at the last accounts-that is no abso ite judgmenit had been pronounced uipon him. is written defence had been sent before the rand Jury an~d is freely commented u poni by me jo~urnas It is spoken of as insoldnt in tone, and bold and hardy in its defiance. n the 3d March, Santa Anna addressed it note the mintister of war and marine. Don Pedro. arcia Conde. in this tiassive he justifies his forts to secure his private fortune, and comn hains bittetly of the interception and breaking pen of his letters to his agents. The language f his note is extremely haughty--rather that of dictator tihan a prisoner. Commenting upon the Siglio XIX observes that it is in sutch tiking contrast to the h'umble tone of his prem isous letters, as to wvatrant the belief that San Annta expects.to be restored to liberty and ower, by a new revolution. The nltimate tfetj of the fallen tyrant is more than hinted t, for the same paper of a later date alluding Ie lluding to the letter in question, and toa its in olent tone remarks that if Santta Anna were et perfectly certain that neither the Govern aent nor Supeme Court will place his.person a the slightest danger, hie would renew the dis nsting and cotrdly scenes which occurred rhen captured at San Jacinto. On the 24th Feb.. the Grand .Tury and both ranches of Congress presented forutal articles f accusation against Santa Anna. It is an ex eedingly prolix docdment, examining isnd an lysing the conduct of the Ex-President at great mngth and with elaborate care. It concludes y declaringr that there is full ground for pro. eeding against him. A joint Commnission of the two Houses was ppointed to examnine and reply to the request f Santa Anna to be permitted to leave the Re tiblic, and to be allowed to abdicate the Presi ency. The majority of the Commission re use both requests in direct and positive terms. separate repiort was submitted by the miriori. ,, in which they contend ntot only was it inex edient to gratnt the prayer of'Santa Anita, but at they had no constitutional right to examine e question. The Generals and Chiefs who accompanied Governmrat, -have been orderea to Puebla, i be tried there. - Froni the Piamre. Tie Mexican Government had recei *ed intelligence of the passage o'the An nexation resolutions by boib Houses o Congress, but ihey had no official notici that President Tyler had given his as sent to them. . However, they enterainel little doubt of their receiving -his appro val'. Our files from the capital are not a Wae as due, but we infer that tile Govei-a ment was really in possesion 6 the lates intelligence. and that the departure of tb British vessel of war for Galveston w consequent upon the information.. Ou the 21st of March, the Cbamier.o Deputies took into consideration this sub ject of the Annexation of Texas., Reolu tions were introduced, and warmly sup ported, for declaring the provisions of th Treaty of 1831 (ratified in 1832) at al end; for closing the ports of Mexio agains all vessels of the United States, and pro hibiting the introduction of our manufac ttres ; and. finally, that no proposition fron our Goverprnent for the restoration o friedly relations should be listened to, sav upon the condition that the United State should renounce altogether the plan of an nexetton. Rumors of War.-An indefinable ant untraceable rumor reached this city yes, terday, (says the Washingion Consuitu tion.) that Mexico had declared wa against the United States; had seized upot and confiscated all American propert; found within her jurisdiction. We deen it but unfounded rumor, entitled to ni credit whatever, but inasmuch as iti'i got. abroad, we state it here for what it i worth. But we have reason to suppose that out Guvernment has not been unmindful n such a contingency; and if, hy possibility the rumor above mentioned be true, th city of Vera Cruz may 'find itself unex pectedly called upon to make good all det riment to our citizens.
