ITERESTING TO SOUTH CAROLINA. Among the recent proceedings of Congress, says the Carolinian, we find that our Senaktor, Mr. DeSaussure, has -called up from the Calen endar of the Senate a bilL to refund to the State of South Carolina the money she advanced for the Florida War to her volunteers, to reimburse ihem for losses sustained in that campaign. The amount is in the neighborhood of $20,000. The billas passed does not allow interest, but perhiaps it was best not to risk debate or future delay. The following is an extract from the proceedings of thd Senate: "Mr. DeSaussure. Mr. President, I ask the indulgence of the Senate to take up the bill to indemnify the State of South Carolina for money expended for the use of the United tates iM the war in Florida with the Seminole Indians. This bill was referred to the Commit -tee on Military Afinirs, and h:,.s been reported by that committee unanimously I believe. I do -not think that any objection will be made to the hill, or that it will give to discussion. I ask the indulgence of the Senate to take it up now and put it upon its passage. "The motion was aireed to, and the Senate proceeded to the consiTeration of the bill as in Committce of the Whole. It proposes to re quire the Secretary of War to pay to the State of*South Carolina such sums of money as were paid by that State in 1838, 1839, and 1840, for services, losses, and damages sustained by her volunteers iu the Florida war of 1836, 1837, and 1838, while in the service of the United States, and -on their return from that service, as were ascertained and allowed by a board of commissioners appointed for that purpose by an aef of the- Legislature of South Carolina in -' 1887. "Zhe Committee on Military Affairs propose taimend the bill by adding the following pro 'iso. Provided, eorcever, That no interest shall be Allowed-upon the. moneys paid to the State of South Carolina under the provisions of this -bill.' "The amendment was agreed to, the bill was reported to the Senate as amended, the amend. ment was concurred in, and the bill was ordered to be engrossed and read a third lime. It was s. uhsbquently read a third time and passed." JUDGE E. Y.

MEDICAL REFORMi CosvENTo.--A number of gentlemen, met in Corvention at this plice on yesterday and are in session to-day, their object being to more perfectly organize for the furtherance of the pritnciples of Medical reform. About twenty-five delegates are in attendani-e from various parts of this State. The Conv'en -- -ion met in tihe Baptist Church, and was or --ganized by the appointment of Dr. WV. T. Bar. ton, of Oratgeburg District, as President, and -Dr. D. WV. Reid, of this town, as Secretary. :The President- on taking the chair addressed *the meeting in a fewv appropriate remarks set .~ting forth the objects of their assembling. The - gentlemen present we're then enrolled. A comn *mittee of five was appointed to prepare busi ---ness. The convention then adjourned to niee again at 4 o'clock P. M. An address wasde 'i- vered by Prof. Batnxter of the Southern Bn tanic Jedical Collego of Georgia at 11 o'clock * -which was listened to with marked attention and interest.

Artx.--Thie iiitrod'action-of this article into *the Southern States, has added greatly to their - prosperity, and has given another important grain .for their use. How much has this crop increased the comfort of thousands of masters and slaves? -.-:- iow many thousands of acres of swamp lands, *which before the introduction of rice were only the sources of disease, are now, by tho~ hand of industry converted into beautiful, productive fields, teeming wvith food for man and beast, and waving their golden trea'sures to the breeze. Withiout slave labor this importaint crop could ntot bo cultivatsd in the low grounds whlere it noiw is; it may be raised to a ]imited extent in upland, but is there an uncertain crop, yielding comparatively little to the acre. It is only on --swamp lands where a command of water can be li .~ ad to flood the land, that rice can be extensive ly cultivated, so as to become an article of ex. - port. As an addition to our food it is much ~used at the South, and large quantities are ship -ped-to the North and to Europe, and its con sumption abroad is fast inerensing-. Rice is ~perhaps the-'most profitable crop raised, and it -.-riquires a- large and strong force to cultivate it - sdvantage..

EDGEFIELD, S. C. WEDNESDAY, JULY 21, 1852. SAVE THE PIECES. A GooD many plates, dishes &c.,c.were lost in the breaking-up of last Thursday's .Pic-Nic. Those hav ing such articles in hand are reftested to leave them at this office,. where things will be given to the right owners all.around. $": GoDxy's LADY'S Boox for August, 1952, reaches us this morning. We have not had leisure time as yet, to read its contents, but from the hasty glance- which we have given it, we 'jromise ourselves a rich treat in its perusal. - The quantity of matter in this number is unusu:.lly large-it being a double number. The qualtity we guaranty will speak well. for itself. EDGEFIELD COLLEGIATE INSTITUTE. EXAMINATION AND CONCERT! Is calling attention to the exercises to take place at the above Institute on the 22nd and 23d inst.. we are requested to give notice that it has been found neces sary, in order to perform all the music prepared for the occasion, to occupy two evenings, and that there will therefore be a Concert on Thursday and Friday evenings, commencing at 71 o'cloek. The address which was announced for Friday, will be omitted, and the pupils in the Primary Department, examined on Thursday evening, instead of the morning, as at first announced. The additions to the building, which are row in progress, will render the acoommodations suf. ficiently ample, to Feat a large number of persons, and it is hoped that all friends of education, antd the public generally, will attend during the exercises. f"OLD TUBAL CAIN." WE present our readers this week with the woris of that famous old song, " Tutbal Cain." Would that we could give them the music too! But, having only one copy at command, and that a borrowed one, it were vain to think of such a thing. The words, however, are a treat of themselves, and we venture to commend them as a piece of excellent composition to all admirers of the beautiful and im pressive in poetry. A PROPOSITION. As this is the sevnon for speeches, literary addresses &c., and as the times are so dull in other respects, as to straiten us much in the business of filling our columns with mtatier of much interest, we propose to those of our orators, whlo feel so inclinetd, the pulica tion of their effort< from time to timte through the sunmer. '3any would doubtless he much pleased that we shoutld lay before them original readling of this description. The' only suggestions we would make in advance arc convoyed by two words-revise and prune.. SEE WHAT THEY SAY OF US? Wa find the following in the last " Souther.:a a -Wu!LLrG T343~ Legislhtu~re. Edgeftnri remarkable for her public Now, if our neighbors of the " Putriot" merely intend a pun by their italicizing of thte word " public" in the foregoing clause, we have nothing to say. But if they design an ironical sneer, we must e'en take it up as in ditty bound. And we pitch into you, gentlemen, at once with that emphatic question: " what do you menn I" Is it that the people of Edgefield are lacking in public. spirit! They hacking in public spirit, who got a charter for bidditdg a Railroad long ago, and came pretty ner mnaking up the stock, andl then just quit the wvhole concern and, f.'rgettingall about Railroads, went to sleep in calm atnd unruffled dignity ! They lacking in public spirit, who became clumnorous, be cause the Legislature granted in their seat of jntsuice a few facilities the 'only tendency of which wa~s to improve. their common gathering-groundi They lacking in public spirit, who still manfully turn their eyes from all of the great and praise-worthy iuder takings of the age, and lazily .gaze towards where an enterprizing stranger is coning on with his Plank Roadh to show that somne things cat. be done as well as others? Such people lacking in public spirit! Take it back, oh Patriot, and acknowledge your error itn the name of the goddess, Enterprise-it any such goddess there be ! SCOTT A CO WARD) t NcvER dreampt of such a thing, or saw mention of such a thing, until a day or two since, in glancing over the Selnma Reporter, we observed that it was re pAlling the charge as having been generally circulated in those parts. Surely, Mr. Reporter, that spurious egg must be hatched by some one for the mere effect of successful rebuttal. 'The bare idea seems pre posterous. If Wsxs'IELD Scori- be a coward, then verily does cowardice answer all thte purposes of bravery. NO-Scott must he a brave man, as lie is a skilful General. But that's no reason whatever, Mr. Reporter, that be should be an American Presi dent. APPL.AVSE EXTRAORDINARY, W. have oftetn heard of the great triumphs of Jen ny Lind, Alboni, Grisi, Parodi &c. We have read of the enthusiasnm with which they inspired their hearers, of listening audiences under thte magic influ ence of their vocal powvers, rising, unconsciously from their seats, rendered frantic, as it were, by the sweet accents which fell from their divine lips. Butt never have we seen, heard, or read of such signal success as that of Madame IhNmaR-ETA SOYTAG, at Munich. This celebrated Prima Donna, while performing thte part of Amina, in Sontiamobula, was called for not less than twetnty times, antidst thte most phrensied: applause and enthusiastic bravos. Dutring the palmy| days of Roman splendor and magnificence, while thei pantomime was in the greatest state of perfection, the delighted spectators "turned their thunibs upward," says Gibbon, "eleven times in honor of the great actor~ Stitichius." -Madame SoirrAG, however, was encored nine times more than thse ancient, and with much greater applause 'tharn any Cantatrice -in tao dern times. RATIgIICATION MIEETING, TItE great Whtig Ratification Meeting, held at New Orleans on the 1st of July, was a magnificent affair-. a more splendid scene was, apparently, never wvitness ed in thatecity. ;" We shall not," says the Commer cial Buletint, "pretend to estimate the thousands thtat were present on this joyous occasion ; an approximate idea may be entertained of the nutmber from the fact that the whole area in Canal street, from Camp to St. C))arles was densely thronged, while the windows, balconies, and galleries of all the houses in the vicin ity presented an imposing array of ladies, who gave their earnest attention to the proceedings of the eve ning." Thte second resolution of the Convention hails Gen. WNIEZ.D ScoTT as the "greatest Captain of the age," states that his brilliant achievements from 1812 down to .the imaperishable laurels won by him in Mex *co, haveg~ained him the admiration pf the world..

I "3MERRIL WENT TIE. DAY," 'Titu Pic-Nic qf Thursday laIr provid to be, in spite f wind and weather, one of the most social and ilarious occasions in _which it has been our fortune a participate. No one could fail to .admire the good ante and judgement which arranged the proceedings f the day ani prevailed uninterruptedly throughout The spot upon which the preparations were made Va., of itself, an evidence of the good sense which ,uided tbe conduct of this affitir from the begmning Swas the high and airy hill belonging to Dr. Wam. 3uar within a mile of our town-a locality com )ining all the requisites of comfort, beauty, conven ence and retirement, in a degree-superior to any other xe know of in this vicinity. This -very handsome ite had been cleared up thoroughly by the gentlemen vho had this duty in charge. And in-adlition, their -nergy had furnislied for the company the means for several games, such as nine-pins, quoits &c., bevides target-shooting with blow-guns for the boys, and swings &c. for. the girls. This last feature, by the way, is-rather a new one in the pastimes of our coun try, and one which we wotild be glad to see generally adopted. The gayety and animation, which it liilped to impart to the cheerful scene of Thursday, was suf ficient evidence to Is of its fitness for relieving the tediousness of such occasions. But there were still other portinns of the day's on tertainment which gave very general satisfaction. The first of these was an Exhibition, on the part of some of the scholars of Mr. ALnaien's Seminary, consisting of neat and pretty addresses by the girls, and of speeches and dialogues by the boys, all of which were well received, while several of them were much applauded.-The second was an Exhibi tion, on the part of the young people generally, of some of the most light-footed dancing we have seen in many a day, executed on a long platform prepared for the purpose.-The third was the Ielightful music afforded by BoHt.Ea's Brass Band, whose spirited performance, of their most tasteful selection of airs, had, perhapt, greater influence in heightening the en joyment of the company titan any other single item of tie day. We were going to number the dinner in this list of delights. But it was so seriously interfered with by sudden conflict of the elements of air anti water, which orcurred about two o'clock on that day, that we seareely think it will bear the enumeration. I would have been a splendid one fur an occasion ol the sort. There was an abundance on hand, and every one would have been feasted heartily had noi the storm prevented. As it was, a great many had succeeded in stowing away quite eriough to stay theii appetites until supper-time. And in fact, nlthougli the heavy shower put a stop, not only to the dinner but to the party of the day, yet. in the end, it resultei in giving. to the young people especially, a most agree able evening. For this they were indebted to th< kindness of Mr. Dony. the excellent proprietor of the Plantars Hotel, who profered his long-room to th< party for the night. His offir was thankfully accept ed-and the larger portion of those who had partici pated on the hill were fomund not iong after in the hall fretshly dressed, well-rested, and ready for the socia and lively dance. The dance was begun at about! o'clock mum the afternoon andi continned with unaiatet cheerfulness until 10 o'clock, when the company ad journed in fine spirits. ' We can but repeat tit, from 9 o'clock at morr until 10 at night, "all went merry as a muarriage bell. COMMENDABLE WORKS.

Carolina! SOUTHERN PRESS. Tus papers from all portiomts of the Union, withm the exception of those in our own State, are down upon time Southern Press. The various presses have arro gatned to themselves the privilege of determining that lie " Sousthers Press stands still." "Tme poor Press is in a queer fix.'' " It was an end of usefulnes, and at variance with common sense fur time Southmern Press not to support PI ER CE" &c., &c. They imagine, we smuppose, that time Presa is in its " seer andI yellow leaf," and, as tmsmuai, are ever ready to strike whiile their victim is apparently prostrate. Thmose who in the days of its prosperity dared not cross lances with its powerful arm-now that that arm has become, as they think, paralyzed, and the tourniqutet presses its most preciotus limb foi- amputa tion. are among time foremost to enter the lists against their enfeebled fome. Thme New York Herald in an insolent and launting manner says: '.' We suspect'the Editor oniy knows hmaif his business-and badly that." Now had the Herald stopped here, we should have left 'the Editors of the Press to fghtt thmeir own battles, but when it goes on to reproacm the Press as follows, " it can only admire thme great Carttous', and stand alone, as be stood alone-so'itary and alone" we deem it the duty of every American to set his face against its language and to reckoni it among " The host delighting to deprave. Whio track time stepi-of glory to thme grave." To have been tin admirer of Mr. CAmtoun certain ly reflects no shame or dishonor upon the Press. Could it stand " alone, as he stood alone-solitary and alone," let uis assuree the Herald that it would nor only now he tihe admiration of the world, but the great land mark for future generations. .Now we are in favoir of giving time Press a fair trial. Though a difierence of opimmion between its Editors upon political questions should, for a while, render its columns less 'interesting than ustual, though by a sudden split, Its pen and head should :lose for a whiile, their tacm.ustomed. style, and both should jar, whmo can say but that in a short time it wrill resume'its rrmer proud and prominent posiiion ? It is hut right ;o give it a fair showing-thiui mutch, indeed, the high xsition which it has heretofore occupied demnands. Hlowever mtuch the Herali may rejoice over tihe nisfortines of time Press, we think he might at least 11ow the Great Carolioian to, rest in peace. If %y ndirect thrusts lhe attempts, to. rarnish the memory of SAtl~noux, and hmang thme black ememnheon over his aiir name, we will niot only say , that those atteampwt rove futile and suiciaal,' but apply his own hangumage his binesseh n ot'perform r the d 1digger, lest le fall 1 into the It wih have ged. ett him notc'liinmour t Piey, lest the scarf d and cyo&jksliil ail .l4fM WE heard the othdr-ay; from a direct source, a fact_which mia be in resting, as aiprecedent, to those of our reaessAi"zj y be on the eve of ma trimonial airIg in - abridalAi1 ftitly came off in a certain 'en'Citydie e inis (nien and maids) num lbred thrtf-six.

Friend "EDGEF1LD," what thinak you of tlem How very desirable to. reside in such a, neighbor bood. Why should not the entiro District be like tlis section ? I would not presume to advise, but propose to show bow I think it could be brought about. In the first place, let each conclude to contribute all he can to bring about such a state of thinas. " Ile that would.have friends, must show himself friend ly." Let him visit his neighbors. In visiting do not pass your next-door neighbor and go ten or fifteen miles to hunt up one a little richer or more honorable than yourself, to -app-ar as large in the eyes of your equals as possible; for this would tempt them to let you alone-besides you might not have your visit returne'd by the " upper ten," who would be disposed to act on the.same principle. In giving a party do not go to Philadelphia, Nem York or Washington to invite guests, and neglec your friends at home. Do not he offended witI your old friends who are not disposed to acknowl edge your claims to the title of " big bug" of th< neighborhood, for others nray lay claims to the same, who havo aan equal right with yourself and thi: would get up a contest. In few worde-drop all the petty distinctions now cxisting, and enaulate you: neighbor in promoting the public good. We live in a great country; Our civil and re ligious rights are likely to be continued. With on lealthful and delightful climate, wlat spot on th globe can comparei Our fiehls are clothed in ver due, trees laden- with lucious fruits and the toil c the husbandmana about to be rewarded with a plun tifal harvest. We live in a land "Where every prospect pleases and only man is vile. I nan convinced, however, from w-hat I have seer that we still lanve some chaoice spirits left. Let thet but exert themselves and all will ye-t be well. W will then be what we once claimed to be. in "OLD EDGEFIELD." FoR TE Aivr.RTrsEl: Mssas.

From thJ South Carolinian. HON. F. W. PICKENS. Mssns. Eurrons: I observe in you.paper. of -the 10th instant an article addressed to the Hon. F. W. Pickens, over the signature of "John Lawrence," in which he sttes that " we are about taking a new latitude and departure." I agree with the writer. We are - indeed aibout - to take a new latitude and depart urc. The contest between Pierce and Scott will be pure. ly on sectional questions, and if Scott sueceeds upon the principles of his inomination, together with his known connection with Seward and abolition, then..indeed. we will be overrun and governed absolutely by the North. To meet these probable events, the country wants just such men as F. W. Pickens, whose experience and intimate knowledge of public tiIen, and particulbrly whose reputation in the souihwest, (and of whom Jefferson Davis, in his recent ad dress to the people of Mississippi, spoke of in glowing terms,) is such as to aidl by his coun sel., that union and concert. which miy be so essential to our peace and independence. - On the contrary, if' Pierce succeeds, we want aile and experienced men, who are intimate - with him and his friends, to mould his adminis tration, so as to secure permanently the consti tutional rights of the South. There never was a time when we have nteded more, in any foit of view. a gentleman occupyiig tile posi.ion of Col. Pickens. I think.his general public course his been as consistent and true to state rights ais that or any statesmnan of our day. He did sustain the administration of President Polk, and so did three-fourths of the people of South Carolina. Nevertheless lie refused a distin guished office tendered to .him by President Polk. I hope at the present time there will be . no opposition to him for his seat in the Senate, as a tunited vote in the next Legislature in his 1favor would do as much to heal past divisions in the State, and place her on a new latitude . and departure, as the selection of any other statesman in South Carolina. His neknow - ledged talents, his purity of chiaeter, and I above all his glorious devotion to Carolina pride and honor,gntrantees to us that we would have a higirl-minded and able Senator to stand by the pa-triotic and distinguished Butler. - , SUMTTER. r ._._'___-_ I TiE Souin CARo.NIA RAIL-RoA.-Ve are , pleased to learn that the long pending arrange r inents between the City of' Augusta and the South Carolina Ritil.Road have progre.sed so "f'ar, that aull that is now necessary fobr their com-' g t~letion. is the ratiliention of' the direcors in h Chnrleston, of the contracts of their agents,, which, if we are correctlyiniformed, will be dpn~e *abotut the 20th inst:'tt.
