The deoeased was a member of the Methodist (Church-was of an admirable disposition, and promised much usefulness as a citizen. The wri ter of tis brief notice was reared in the same family cirdle with himself, and enjoyed his friend ship and eenfidence, which had been inspired in the boyhood of as both, until death closed his existenee en earth.- It is perhaps due to his memory, that one who knew him thus well, thould bear testimony, that a juster, truer and better usa, he has never met in his intercourse with the WedL. He had married am 'nteresting and lovely wife destinebioearly to puteonthegarmentsof widow hood, and to mourn, with unavailing sorrow, her sad bereaveinent. -She and his afl'ectionate par ents aswell ashis relatiors of every degree ca derive tsooth'mgonsolation, from the unif-.r'm tenor of.hi.s whole life--from his humility, up rightness,.and integrity, in the just and hrm be liefthal death, which to some, should be regard ed as the eadest event, was to him, but a happy deliveiance from anxiety and suffering on earth, and a blessed summons for his appearanee amid the bright and glorious throng that surrounul the throne of his Father and his God on high..

A fine apparatus; a large collection of Maps ; Anatomical Charts, Globes, &e; a Museum of Natural History; a Cabinet of Minerals and Shells; .furnish unusual facilities for acquiring a practical knowledge of the different branches of Science. Two new Pianos have been purchased in ad dition to those already in the Institute.

The PRInCIPAL devotes the whole of his time to the supervision and instruction of the various classes. The Assistants are experienced in their diffe rent Departments, and those only of known sue ces in teaching are employed. The Academical year is divided into Sessions of 14 weeks each. Itis of great importance that the student be present at the commencement of the Session. The Cases are then formed, and a few weeks delay may affeet the standing of the pupil thronghout the year. Taition is charged but from the time of en trance to the end of the Session. Payments are to be made at the close of each Session. Uunusual facilities are given for a thorough Musical Education. In addition to other improvements, which are now in progress, a large covered playground, for exercise in wet weather, and a gymnasium, are to be erected.

July 17 26 PROSP]9CTUS OF THE9 ILLUSTRATED FAMILY FRIEND, A NEW PAPER Zor the Zireside, the Parlor# and the Loisure loment, TO BE PUBLI5nBD aff so hdi Late Editor of the Laurenaville "Herald," Author of " The Slaver," " For'ard Aft," - " The Ocean Born," c., 4&c. N OT from the lack of Newspapers in the Palmetto State, nor from their want of abili ty-for we feel proud to know that the Press of South Carolina will compare favorably with that of any State In the Union-are we induced to anticipate the success of the ILLUSTRATED FAMILY FRIEND. But, whilst cheerfully acknowledging the marked and unmistakeable talent displayed in the man agement of our cotemporaries, and cordially wish ing them a full support and generous patronage, we vet think there is an ample field, now unoc cupied, for the growth and expansion of the paper which it will be our endeavor to make, not only nominally the Family Friend, but really and sin eerely the Friend-leal, loyal and true-of every family in the State. The fierce and fiery discussion of party poli ties, the useful, but dry records of commerce and traffic, as leading features, we will leave for the pens now so active and eloquent in their service ; and whilst we will give to both subjects, as much space as will be desirable to the general reader, our greatest object and principal aim will be, the evolvement, elucidation and exaltation of the Pure, the Beantiful, the Useful and Instructive, in the paths of Morality, Virtue, Literature, Sci ence, Art and Agriculture. The Ideal being more easily comprehended and more captivating, when combined in some degree with the Material-we will bring the Artist's skillful hand into requisition to illustrate the mind's conceptions, and to render the Fami ly Friend as nearly perfect as it is possible to make a physical means adapted to a mental end. In every number, therefore, we will give, in ad dition to a large amount of original reading mat ter from the pens of WRITERS OF ACENOwLEDGED PowER AND Gasus, at least Four Handsome, Pertinent, and Ele gantly executed Engravings. To stimulate the y.ung to renewed exertions in pursuit of knowledge, fame and fortuno-and to enourage those who have already entered upon the actualities of life, to persevere and be stead tast in their strivings onward end upward to wards the goal of their hopes, has in all ages and in all countries, been considered an object worthy of the noblest ambition. To effect ends so desirable. what means can be imagined more likely to prove efficacious, than would familiarity with the painful struggles undergone, the prira tions borne, the difficulties overcome by men, now living, who have distinguished themselves, either as Scholars, Statesmen, Politicians, Jurists, Physicians, Divines, Authors, Artists, Mer. chants, Mechanics, Military men, or Agricultu rits. Consequently, _as a new, and we think very valuable feature, we will give in every issue. A CoaaceT LiEB.ass or sons PROMINENT Sourra Casor.NUa, with an authentic biographi cal sketch. These are brief, very brief hints, at the inten tions and purposes of the IrLLUeraATEn FAMILYv Fxsx-the narrow limits of a Prospectus will ot permit us to malke them more full; but scant as they arc, we trust they are ample enoughi to convince evcIygean~dld and intelligent person, that though we. idiend not to boast, we design publishing a paper that will be worthy -ot a liberal support.TR S As it is our intention to maske the Family Friend a permanent publication, upon which the riends who aid it now. in its infancy, may look with increasing pleasure as it improves with ears-everything connected with its mechanical arrangement will be of the best quality.. The amily Friend will be issued weekly--printed n a large imlperial sheet of fine white paper, with beautiful, clear type; and will be furnished o sueribers at $2 per annum: one dollar to be paid on the receip~t of the first number, and one dollar at? the expiration of six months. 0i- P.

The process is simple, and can be accomplished by the most limited understanding, so as to produce from even warm water, in the hottest elimate, a PURE ICE, equal in every essential to that formed by natural causes. Theluxury of always having at one's will, in the heat of summer, a pure and delicious Tee, will readily be conceded ; and its advantages, in cases of sickness cannot be too greatly prized. By this same process warm water can be rendered delightfully cold in about 5 minutes, and ice creams, with many other luxuries, can be made in from 10 to 20 minutes. The following notice of this great discovery is taken from the New York Sun: "A REAL Luxuav.-Dr. James R. Wilning ton produces, by an artificial process, pure and solid ice, from water, in the heat of summer, in less than half hour. And he can render a bar rel of water as cold as ice itself in a very few minutes. This discovery must be of immense value to all living South."
