EDGEFIELD Cs H. WSBssDAYr, OCTOBER 4, 1845. DEFERRED ARTICLES. COLD WEATHER. - For several days after the rain which recent ly fell, the weather was quite cool. The tem perature was like that of November. Since October set in, the temperature has been quite pleasant. CATIPILLARS. We learn from our exchanges that these destructive insects are making serious ravages upon the grass, grain, fodder and vegetation generally, in seveial of the upper Districts. We understand that a worm or eatipillar of a destructive character, has made its appearance likewise in Edgefeld. OUTRAGE AT LEXNGTW19 C. R. We learn from a commu nication in the Temperance Advocute of the Ist inst., that the Court House at Lexington was forcibly entered, and that the bust df Judge O'Neal which was placed in a room in the building, was taken out by some person unknown, and carried into the street and treated in a shocking , manner. Great excitement among the friends of the Judge, was produced by this affair. CORN. We perceive from the advertisements of Messrs. J. J. Howard, H. L. Jeffers, Pearson & Walker, merchants in Hamburg. that an abundance of corn will be kept constantly on hand to supply the *ants of the planters and others. If necessary it is probable that other gentlemen in Hamburg will also keep corn enough for the public. In all appearances, there is no probability that corn will bring an extraordiansy price in Augusta, Hamburg, Columbia or Charleston, during the year. We in common with the rest of the communi ty, feel under great obligation to these con mercial houses, which have taken such prompt and efficient means to meet the pressing ne cessities of the people in this season of suffer. ing. From the Boston Temperance Record. CONFESSION OF JON. B. GOUCH, We hasten to lay before our numerous readers the confession of John B. Gough, made at Roxbury, before a c6mmittee of the Washingtonians. Mr. Gough appeared before the com mittee at the hour appointed. His ap pearance was much as heretofore, with the exception ofa fallen and softened ex hression of countenance, which became him on so peculiar an occasion. Having been requested to speak, he gave utter ance to the following confession. which was pronounced in a firm and manly but modest tone - BelovedBrethren-To me this occa sions seems so extraordinary-it is so different from whut 1i and you tuu,liad any reason to expect, a few days ago that you must bear with be if my manner and my matter also should appeat rather confused. Indeed, (said the speaker, much affected and leaning against the wvall,) I am not well! [No language could convey to the read er an idea of the tone in which these last words were uttered, nor of the thrilling effect they had upon his auditors.] .f say not woell.-1 speak nat of physical illness; but it is here |Oh! my God! it is here-[he laid his band upon his heart] who shall say what a day may bring forth:' Ah! dearly have I learned to appreciate the sacred conjunCtion of the invincible Paul-"Let him thinketh be staneth, take *heed lest he fall!" I have, indeed, preached to others, and have myself become a cast way. If man never forgives me for I have no right to expect forgiveness frm wan-I, in my present low estate, do still hear a voice from Calvary; I hear those blessed tones of mnercy-"My grace is sufficient for thee!" [Here the eloquent speaker covered his face with his hands, and burst into a flood of tears )j Who says that my disgrace is a disgrace to the glorious cause of temperance? Who says that my unworthy upostacy no, no, I will not use that word. Who says my temta'ion and my weakiness en tail dishonor upon the great cause of which 1 have been so unwvorthy an advocate? Let such, if any there be, conypare the -loss and and the gain. 'Let them call up the hosts of redeemed men and women; let them :summon the wives and (the children who, in every town, by the sea side and by the woods, in city and coun try, bless God every morning that they rise, and every evening that they lie down, for the glorious pledge-that pledge which snatched a father and a husband from the arms of ruin-that drove back the rushing wave from their dwellings that raised the fallen man from the miry pit, and placed his feet upon a rock. Would they compare my single fault with this redemption? who looks at the sun to see one spot upon his dise, and then ewebre there is no daylight because that glorious orb contains a few obscurations upon its surface? Nywhat is my own case in connexion wihthe Great Temperane'e Cause? what what is 'a fly upon the mill wheel? what is a drop in the ocean? Have I. indeed evidence of imy sinceri ty? Oh,let those think so accustomed to the intoxicating cup-let them try for one year-for one month-or for one week, to conquer the inextinguishable that con sumes their being-they will learn how much sincerity is required to abstain, for a short time, from the seductive bowl Beloved Brethren! I could not sayless, but I must proceed with my narrative. You are already aware-and thanks to the intemperate editors, the public ~sre pretty generally aware of the situation in which I-was found. It is necessary that I give a detailed account of the facts. I could well wislt to be spared this duty: hut, like the Spartan boy,, I must nerve myself to endure, though the fire eat into my heart. In the city of New York, there is a little ear.. ., ,be onern of Contra and R~ead ;treeta, ofunique costrudCon, being made up principally of glass lights. Here I repaired to get a glass of soda water, with who had invited-me, whose name'it is un neccessary to mention, as I believe he was guiltless of any evil intention. The soda was drawn for me ; but the man had no syrup -in his shop, and ased Lucina Cordial as a substitute. Such was the peculiar effect of this cordial upon me, that I lost the use of my reasoning facul ties to a great degree; my old appetite for ardent spirits revived in me, as if some infernal demon had been permitted to lash the unresisting helm of my judgment -thrown away the compass-and then let loose all the windslof heaven upon my pilotless bark. As I walked down Centre street, I felt the most intense desire for women and wine. As ti passed thetav eras and bar rooms, I could scarcely re sist the inclination to rush in and satisfy my cravingappetite. [a passing Lothian's corner, I met a young woman, an acqaintance of some years' standing who was tying her shoe. Being dark, I accidentally touched her el bow in passing. She then recognised me and called me by my name; I stopped, and after a moment's conversation, she requested me to call with her and see a fallen sister whom she was desirous of rescuing from the abyss of ruin. As it is a part of my mission to redeem the lost, and to raise the fallen, I gladly consented, although myself standing on the very precipice that overhung the .vor tex. I entered with her a house in Wal kerstreet, where I found an elderly lady and the sister of myffemale companion. Afler a tetidious conversation. a feeling hardly to be described in words came over me-the burning, raging appetite for li quors. The little which was found.in the house only added to the flame. I gave money to a young woman, and procured more; and here my memory fails. What happened afterwards, I can no more tell than the maniac who struggles with his chain in the asylum for maniacs. From that moment all is chaos. My example, more than words, bids "bim that standetb take heed lest he fall." I hope to be ajain in the Beld. I hopo to stand before the public with all my wounds and bruises upon me-a monu ment of the deeds of rum-a. monument of the mercy of God! I hope to dp more than I have ever yet done-to wrest the sceptre from King Alcohol, and trample in the dust the mighty foe from I am de livered THE TABLES TURNED ON TE Ano LITIONISTS. We notcied some time ago, that the survant maid of the family of our fellow citizen, W. B. Hodason, Esq., had been brought up before a Judge at Northamp ton, Massachusetts, under a writ of habeas corpus. We find from the Northampton papers, that this girl has sued the Aboli tionists, who had thus insulted her, and laid her damages at $1000. In default of bail, Dr. Hudson has in, consequence been imprisoned. The trial will come on at the October term of Common Pleas, in Boston. We are highly gratified that this case has .been.hroughs I .I& U-..,. d. mined whether a Southern gentleman may not pass through the Northern States unmolested by the pestilent, fanatical Ab olitionists. Their outrages have .so long been tolerated, that they seem to have forgotten that the servants of the South, and their masters, have any personal rights in the North, During the past sum mer, they have been particularly active in hunting Southerners. The fact of a Southern man being seen with a colored servant, free or slave, has been suflicient ground for them to apply for a writ of ha beas corpus, to send the Sheriff to the private apartments of the family, follow ed by a mob of ragamuffins, and to drag the servant by force before a Judge. It cannot be doubted, that habeas cor pus, in such cases, becomes an instrument of gross outrage and oppression, instead of being a beneficial provision: of law. Tro check these outrages the present ac tion was brought. Mr. Ilodgson has, moreover, made such complaint before the Grand Jury, that these importinent fellows will be indicted for riot and dis turbance of the public peace. He will, besides, bring a civil action against the ringleaders, for damages sustained for loss of services. Last year, a Mississippian was brought back to Northampton, a distance of twen ty miles, with a colored servant, under a writ of habeas corpus. In this case, it turned out that the girl, was a free woman. It will hardly be believed that such an outrage was perpetrated with impunity, yet such is the fact. At Utica, in New York, a few weeks ago, a gentleman from North Carolina had bis nurse forcibly ta ken from his house, but she returned to her family with feelings of great Indigna ion at the insult thus offered to her loyal ty and attachment. No action in this case was instigated against the rioters. It is certainly high time that Southern ers should know if such outrages are sus taned by the lawe of the Northern States. It impossible that they can be; and we have no doubt, that before Mr. Hodgson has done with these fanatics, they will learn to respect Southern masters, and their servants too.-Sawannah Georgian. The New York Evening Post, speak ingon political patronage, says that the General Government controls the ap pointment of 14,000 Postmasters, 14,000 Deputies, 1,000 Mail Contractors and Agents, 2,000 Revenue and Lighthouse officers-making in all 31,000 public de pendants. Every State controls 2,000 appointments, and all of them 54,000. The General and State Governments, to gether, control 87,000 men. This is ex clusive of Army, Navy and the troops of peons employed by the Executive offi crs, of the National and State Govern mnts. A British Fleet for Oregon.-T he N. Y. True Sun says that the British Fleet recently noticed, "consists of two 104 gun ships, four frigates and three steam ers. Under the guise of an experimental squadron, it 'is, in fact, a squadron of ob servation, sailing with sealed orders, and having on board a full regiment for Ore nsbonnM their hingn be deemed ad visable,-and also:a governor for, the terri tory, should circumstrnces warrant his as suimng that position to carry out the in structions under which he has been sent. Such, we learn from a gentliman. directly from England, and who was at Spithead at the time of the sailing'or 6e squadron, was well understoodamong the officers of the squadron to bethe objects of the mission on which they were about starting.' The Chivalry of our Fater.-During the revolution we bad, says ibe St. Louis American, but twenty.five vessels of war, of every class; yetsmall as our little na vy was, it shed a halo of glory over the whole land. It vas stated in the British Parliament by the first lord of the Akdmi ralty, that the Americans. had captured 784 English vessels, worth $12,500,000. At the close of the revolutionary war we bad in commission 1751public and private armed vessels, carrying 2500 guns and 14,000 brave and gallant seamen. This force speead over every sea, and for en terprise and daring, never was surpassed in the history of the viorld. 'All this time England had 200 ships actively- engagel in the service, when the war closed she had but 40 left. The census of New York has been at ken recently in accordancatwith an. Act passed by the last Legiiihture of that State. In seventy two-.citig and towns the increase of population ding the last five years has been nearly 23 per cent. If the increase throughout the rest of the State has been in proportion, to the in crease of these cities and towns, the pop ulation of New York is half a million greater than in was in 1840.' [Savannah Georgian. A Praise to the United States.-The schooner Albert, of Boston, and recently commanded by Capt, Woodbury, arrived at the Navy Yard below Philadelphia, Sunday, in charge of a Liedtenant of the Navy and crew placed on board from the U. S. brig Bainbridge, of the Brazil sta tion. The A gwas abandoned to the United States by ier commander, after being seized a a slaver. She is now brought in as a prize, and it is said, with some 20 or 30 prisoners on 4arid, either thoselbelonging to the Albert, or some other vessels similarly situated. A Blow is usually regarded as an indig nity, but not always so; for we learn from a JPitsburg paper, that in consequence of the coal soot,,of the atmosplere of the American Birmingham, the ladies have rather a troublesome tilne of it in regard to their faces. Thus saysk (be journal aforesaid, "whenia lady's face iecei'ves a descending Bake, her nearest friend blows it off. To wipe it would onlimake bay worse, and singular to say, thejgreatest kindness showniby the ladiesto each other is when they come to.blons." Intermarriges and Insanity.-The Cin cinnatti Herald contains as article on this subject designed to show that intermarria ges of blood relations always : tend to de prave the race, and often lead to insanity. It is shown that in Catholiechuntriea, -sieu. w I. tmm,niaurrlm anneteU, cases of insanity are very - few, while in Protestant countries they are of frequent occurance. Thus in Spain the proportion of instanity is but one to seven thousand one hundred and eighty-four, while in the United States they are one to eight hund red. The Benefits of Adverliing.-We were informed yesterday, by one of our Dry Goods' merchants, that one single advertisement was the cause of his selling to one gentleman nyve silk dresses, which with the "Buins" amounted to upwards of nienty dollars! This gentleman saw the advertisement in the paper, brought it to town with him, went to the merchant without looking elsewhere, called for the goods, and purchased them. if one advertisement sells ninety dollars worth of goods, 'who can estimato the amount that may be sold by advertisug all the time.-Peters burg Rebublican. Diamnonds.-While at Gainesville last week, we were shown two diamonds (ons weighing, we believe, 34 and the other 3!i carats,) which were found in a gold mine belonging to Doctor Banks. We also saw a more valuable Diamond found some timeosince, and which having been ut in the form of a brillhant, and hand somely set in a breast- pin, is ir. possessioni of Doctor Daniel- We learn that the Geological formation of much of Hall county, is favorable for finding these gms, and we doubt not that a few morn discoveries will attract increased atten to that region of country.-A/hens (Ga.) Banner. improved Fire Engire.-Thbe N. Y. Express says that Mr. E Mars of.that city has invented a mode of working the Fire Engine, by which it can be operated by a less number of men, and with much great er ease than by the brake, the present mode. By insans of a screw, turned mn a moment by a crank attached, the machine is lifted from the ground when required to be set in motion, aud the hind aheels made to serve as fly wheels.. With the aid of a rope attached to the wheels, the machine can be worked by 8 men or 200, so that any person at a fire disposed to lend a land have only to lay bold of the rope, and assist to give motion to the fiy wheels. Mr. M.s has obtained a patent, and a machine on his plan is in process of erection, and be ready for service under the direction of the Fire Department, in a few days. it will save the almost insup portable labor now experienced by fire men, and be, without doubt. a most inval able improvement. Six thousand persons perisheb in Chi na during the month of May ; four thou sand by an earthquake in the Province of Honan, in the centre of the empire, and two thousand by the burning of th~e Can ton Theatre. The latter estimate is con firmed by private letters received by the Rainbow. The earthquake is said to have destroyed tea thousand houses. He was short of new, tha t told his father was hung.
