A fate ninimber of the London Weekly Times relates the following singular story: "An officer of artillery, a main of gigantic stature and robust health, being thrown from an unmanageable horse, received a very severe con tusion upon the head, which rendered him insen sible at once. The skull was slightly fractured, but no immediate danger was apprehended. Trepanning was accomplished successfully. Ilie Was bled, and many other of the ordinary'means of relief were adopted. Gradually, however. he fell into a more helpless state of stupor, and finally it was thought he had died. The weather was warm, aud lie was buried with indecent haste, in one of the pub!ie cemeteries. His funeral took place on Thursday. On Sunday following, the grounds of the cemetery were, as usual, much thronged wih visiters; and, about nolon, an immense excite ment was created by the declaration of a pea sant, that, while he was sitting upon the grave of the officer, he had distitnctlv felt a commotion of the earth, as if occasioned by some one struggling beneath. At first, little attention was paid to the man's asseveration, but his evi dent terror, and the dogged obstinacy with which lie persisted in his story, had at length their natural eff-ct upon the crowd. Sp:.des were hurriedly procured, and the grave, which was shamefully shallow, was, in a few minutes, so far thrown open, that the head of its occu pant appeared. He was then seemingly dead: but lie sat nearly erect in his coffin, the lid of which, in his furions struggles, lie had partially uplifted. He was forthwith conveyed to the nearest hospital, and there pronouneed to be still living, althotugh in an aspytie condition. After some hours lie revived, reeognised.indi viduals of his acquaintance, and, in broken sen tences, spoke of his agonies in the grave. Front what lie related, it was efear that lie must have been conscious of life for more than an hour while inhumed, before lapsing into insensibility. The grave was carelessly and loosely filed with loose, porous soil; and thus some air was ne cessarily admitted. Hle heard the footsteps of the crowd overhead, and endeavored to imake himself heard in turn. It was the tutult wihh in the grounds of the cemetery, lie said, whaheb appeared to awaken himu from a deep sleep : but no sooner was lie atwake that lie becamte fully awvare of the awful horrors of his positioni."' THEc FIsHERY Qe'ESTION.--FIEND1.Y RE CEP2TION oF TiHE MzsszSsnPPI AT ST. .IoitN, N. B.-The St. John New Brtunswicker, in noticing the arrival of the U. S. Steamer Mississippi, Cem. Perry, at that port, says she will be of as mnuch service in proteeting the rights of Britimh of' stasndinig to be fully understood. The saute paper says: " We may mention as an .instance of how correct kinowledge of this fishery question may be turned to good account, tht-t the American revenue cutter, which is generally stationed at Eastport, proceeded upon a cruise over the fishery grounds, a week or two since, and the comniander found that his chief' bm-iness was to warn Americatn trespassers off' of forbidden grottnd. Heb found them, in almost every in stance, taking fish within the treatty limnit8, near the shore, and cautioned them as to the conse quences should they be caught. , We hopo that the Mississippi, and indeed the whole Americatn Navy, will cruise abotit our bays and harbors. For 'that matter we would willingly dispense wvith every vessel sent out by England, and throw ourselves adtogethuer into the hands of " our enemies''-for jttstice' would then be meted out by those who.wottld see for themselves to whom it was due. It is worthy of nmentioni that on Stundayv laist the harbor of St. John presentted an American easte of character. There were twelve large Aumcrica'n ships lying ht anche~or withI their en tigns flying att the peak, as well as the war steamer Mississippi. Jonathan ruled the waves in port that day. Commodore Perry and Capt. Adams, of the Mississippi, went to Frederieton on 'Te'sday morning to view the river and pay their respects to his honor the Aduministrator of the Govern mient. The Morning News states that a ball had been agreed uponi to the officers of the Missis sippi, to take place last, Thlursday evening, and -remarks: " We like the plait of goitng to war in a ball-room about this~ "fishy story." Let Cupid do all the fightiug and the ladies the conquering." " A number of our citizens ha~ve paid a visit to the American steamship Mississippi, all of whom speak in the highest terms of' the gen tlemanly treatmnent they have received f'rom the elicers-on board." TnlE Gtxto SciuAm'.-Considrable dissat is thtioni has been expressed in England at the rely of Lord Derby, admitting that the Lashos Islands belong to Peru, a right which Mr. WVeb ster disputes, and which lhe is tiot disposed to allow to be exercised against American tra ders, till the dispute is settled. Mr. Riler, understood to be the agent of the Peruvian Government, published itt the N. Y. Journal of Commerce several colums <f corres pondence, in order to show that the Lobos Islands were discovered and claimed by Peru more than two htundred years ago; that this claim is fully admitted by the English Governi mnent; that.*Pern has possession of the Islands, and an armed force sulhicient to protect themt against all marauders ; that for some years shte has forbidden aHI trespass on these islands, andI even fishing along their shores, and has allowed no one to take guano without license from the Peruvian Government. The agent of Pertz further says, that she will not suffer A merican vessels to take guano from these islands, with out resisting to the utmost of her power; and that an attempt on our part to take guano at the cannon's motnth, will occasion an entire in terruption of our trade with Peru ,an dwill most~ ijuriotusly affect our shipping in the Pacitic. ARRE~ST of JAiL BREAKER.-The Savannah Georgiain, says: "D). Tr. Hines and A. J. Knapp, who escaped from the Jail of this counuty on the morning of the 16th inst., wcre arrested at Macon yesterday, and brotught dowvn on the cars last evening. They hatve been re mantded to Jail to await their trial at the next term of the Superior Court. TrE FISIIER rzs.-Thec Newburyport Herald states-that quantities of fish ot' all kinds are constantly arriving in the Unitcd States from the Provinces. T1here is no- doubt that tempo rarilyjshutting this out~ by prohibitory duties, would soon br'nmg the provincials to their senses, and render themi willing and solicitous that our .fishermen should take and cure fish even on the .shore,.as- they did by ther arrangement 1782.

EDGEFIELD, S. C WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 25, 1852, * WE call the attention of our readers to the communication signed, "MANy OFFICEk.S or EDG E FIELD." In our last number we published the card of Col. E. P. JoNEs, announcing that Gentleman as a candidate for Major General, to fill the vacancy occasioned by the resignation of our worthily es teemed fellow-citizen, 3I. L. DosnA.AM. The com munication above referred to announces Col. 51c. COWEN of Abbeville as a competitor for that office. WE direct all interested in such things to the Ad vertisement of BRINDLEY & RosAmmoND, dealers in groceries &c., Hamburg. They are said to have a I full stock which they -offer at fair prices. See an other column. LOOK AT THIS. Wt are requested to call attention to the fact that the time fAr receiving proposals for the erection of our Town Hall building has been extended. Papers which have been requested t copy Advertisement will please notice the same. SUDDEN DEATH. )n. jons FEN.LEY, an old and highly respectable citizen of Laurens District, died very suddenly a few days since, on his way home from Hamburg. lie was attacked a few miles above that town and ex pired within a few minutes. We have not learned the precise cause of his death. A DOUBLE ARREST. Ax individual, named MCCRART, was arrested ten miles above this place, a few days ago. on the charge of murdering a man in Alabama. A reward oif 6500 had been uffered by the father and brothers (if the person killed. 'I'he gentlemen who arrested McCatny tMessrs. WHITE, .AIV LY and IAlaIs. of this dis:rict.) have taken him on to Alabama, where lie is by this time pernps,. lodged in jail to await his trial. Another McCRAY was arrested by the min gen tlenen, as a fugitive from justice, and carriod on with his brother, a reward of $200 having been offered by some Alabama jailor for his delivery. FINE EARLY POTATOES. WE are indebted to Mr. J. W. IIkMILTOs, resiing near our villrge, for sonic Sweet Potatoes, utiusuallv fine for the season. They were received more than U week ago, and should have been acknuwledgel before this. ''heV were in size - we cannot say pre cisely how large: but uhout four of thein would make a good plate-full. LUCKY ESCAPE. ONE day hist week, says the Albany (G.) Patriot, as Capt. JA~MEs C. BaooKS, of this county, was riding on horseback in his field with his two little boys ton the same horse, suddenly the earth gave way. In the fall they were luckily precipitated oi firm ground; but the horse went down sonie 15 feet, and was finally extricated though much injured. 3Many of Capt. Baooms' Edgefield friendscoigratu late him on this most lucky escape. 31tty lie never know a worse fall! ANNIVERSARY CELEBRATION. LAST Friday was a gala day for our people. alinot epual to that of the Ituman festival. The good citi zens of our town, and its vicinity, had determined to celebrate the 20th instant (the. anniversfary of the hat. tle of Churubtisco, as alsn of the Bumtler A rtill-ry) ini a mannier which shlould reflect credit upon1 themselves. and afford pleasure and gratitication to their nnme rt - ''*-e-~'n the treneral satist'heion d. p the Butler Artillery, unihlr tlie~ commannos u .. C. Monaacx, formed in our public square, ready to march for the scene of their festivity. Tlhe order being given they proceeded iti beautiful style. The finely mounted corps, the brightly burnished cannon, the glancing hen and glitteritig plume alnost mocked the eye. 3Meantime "Sonorous metal blowing martial mons" the Companmy. together wvith 0ou citizenis oni horrehack, aml ladies in niutnherless carritages, moved forward in Ione body to Dr. Bar's spring, about a mnile from tlown. Ihere they were shiaded by the rich foliage of a tmost beautiful grove-indeed it seemed to have been Imade for the occasion, so aptly didi it answer its. pur pose. Besides the 'tatural advantages of this charm ing place, its owner. Dr. Bou-r. bad prepared every necessary accomniodation, both of convenience and pleasure. A spacious old field opened just in front of the grove. where the matmruvres of thme Corps could be distinctly heard and seen. The firing of thet canno~n in rapid siceessio~n, tegethier with the "' far flash of the red artillery." se-emned really to counterfeit "the inm mortal Jove's dread clamno' and prodluced ini our mind qnite a warlike sensation, thrilling us w'ith im-. usual exeitement. 'T'he proXimity of the pieces, the deafening report and the apparent shaking of thme sur routiding earth, discomposed for a while the nerves of sonie of our fair one's, but, strange to say, there was no faititing after all. Immediately in the centre of the grove was thme speakers stand, to which, after the parade, the eyes of all were turtied, as it hadl been previoeusly announced that, at that time an appropriate address wvould be delivered by our mutch esteetned fellow-citizen, 1I. R. SrANNs. Mir. S. spoke eloquently fur tile space ofj thirty minutes--his oration wits chaste, elegant, and orn~ate -at the same time full of sound logic, and cotn vincing argument-indeed we~ think it worthy of his able pen. TIhie speech was listenedt to with uniusuial atteintion, and was reocived with rapturous cheering anid tipplause. IAfter this fenst of the mid, the physical man wvas most particularly cared for-a large, fine, snd sulmp tuouis dinner had been pre-pared, by the Commtiittee, for the accoinmodation of their guests. We need scarcely remind our readers that ample justice was done to the viands, and that there really seemed (as is custonary on such occasions) tno lack of appetite. As at OurnAL.E's feast, all, "' from Lilliput to Tfitan,"' were assembled, so, aruund the table of the Commit Near the speakers stand wase a beautiful and level platform, wvhich wve had eyed with considerable sutii faction, as wve wvell knew for what it was intended indeed it looked to all very much like a hall floor, andh such it was. At the sound of the music, the worship per. of Terpsichore joyously took their favorite luoi tions, vicing with each other in paying adloration to H their much loved mutse. All were here, froom the "blushing Miss" to the lofty Dama. " Their many twinkling feet chasing the giddy circle." "Quais in Eurote ripis, cut per juga Cynthi, exrercet Diana choros," so charni they the sight, while slight bluishes, soft. tremors, andI .calm feminiine lie lights, add to the pleasure of the graceftul dance. Trhe quadrille was decidedly the flhvorite, to it bot " Irish jig and ancient rigadoon" gave place-." Scotch reels avaunt"-and " Dull Romnaika's heavy rottnd, Fandange's wiggle, or Bolero's bound; E'eti Egypt's al mae." The music was very fine indeed, and the group of ti dancers tthe ladies wve mean) so beautiful. that wre would willingly have reversed the tyrants waishi thtt "mankitnd had only one neck which he nmight sever at a single blow"-and feeling decidedly more tender than fierce, naill " That wvomankind had hut one rosy mouth, To kiss them all at once from North to South." Indeed the heart that wvas not charmed by the " con- st cord of sweet sounds, and the beaty of that gay n circle, is so thoroughly bad, as to renmind us of a phie- th nomenon in natural histery, viz, a mass of solid stone, at only to be opened by force, and when divided " you discover a toad in the contre, lively, but wvith the la rputation~ of being venomous." We believe the bl reverse of this however, so let it go, Asmodeus knows i whirto. l To return to our dercription, beaux and belle, hiantd P in hand, " quamfamiliariter," according to the occa- ui altz, " were going it round and -about. until supper me." After that hour Col.

A FEW ITE31S GATHERED IN TRAVELLtNd. WHILE at Glenn Springs recently, we penned a turried epistle to our readers, which should have ap. eared in our last issue. But owing to the fact that aid communication was some eight days in making a utirney of eighty miles, it came to our foreman's hands o late as only to appear in our present number. It vill be found upon our first page.-We propose now o add a few nmre additional items of the subsequent mrt of our two weeks trip. And first we will speak if SPA RTANBURG. This is perhaps the most rapidly improving village of he up-country. It is now reduced to a certainty that 1 itail-Road will bo built to this point within a year >r two. The Spartais, at any rate, will not, for a noment, indulge any thought to the contrary. And hey are acting tip to their faith with the greatest mmptitude and confidence. Already has the spirit if improvement exhibited itself throughout their town. New buildings are arising one after another-squares hat have been hitherto but as a waste common are jow enclosed, nod are being prepared for the habita. ion of the genus, man-bu~iness has received an im letus-real estate has inereased in value in a tenfold ratio-and, withal, the village of Spartanburg may be said to present a lively, pleasant and progressive ippearantce. Among the new buildings of the place, we must not Imit In mention the " Palmetto loue," a hotel which ias just been opened by Mr. TuostsoN. This is, doubtlens, the largest building of the kind in the back 'ouitry of South Carolina. It has beena constructed with admirable skill and with an unusual earefulness for the comfort of lodgers. In the hands of 31r. TtosisoN, it will assunrdly mnintain the reputation of one of the very first hotels in the interior. We wish for its attentive and gentlemanly proprietor continued and increased success. Certainly no landlord of our acquaintance more richly merits it. The night of our sojourn at his house, a pleasant dance was struck up on the spur of the iomtlent, and the evening passed very cheerfuliy. On this occasion we had the gratifica. tion of making the acquaintance of Mr. W. TuohtsoN, one of the Editors of the Spartan, who kittdly pre. senited us wilh a copy if his excellent juurnal, that happit~ening to he its publication day. (if the prvat;e edifices of this town, we were par ticularly struck and much pleased with the somewhat unique niniiion of Mr. TeCIEa, the other editor of the Spartan. It is certainly oh a style. beaumifully chaste', anl alibrdls but nuother evidence of the correct taste comion to the fraternity. .Spartaiburg has froin twelve to fourteen stores be. sides various shops. Its population is upwards of a thouand.-Let us now turn for a while to CIhICI'S SPRINGS. Thiu watering place, as it is called, seems to have been butt joiirly patronised this season. On reaching it. we found only twenty-five or thirty visitors; and learned that this ntiuber had seldom been exceeded during the present suimnmer. Tho building is a large and commodious one, and the rooms are pleasant rnouuh-(much more so than those at Glenn)-but the table !-re:llythe Cutexs ought to keepra little better one, if it were only for their own sakes. Why they dil not, we caiinot imagine-for they are clever men and loressersed of afluetce.-Tie tempurnture at Catiens is very plearant; and the billiard-table anud ten-pin alley are free.

We have noticed in the Congressional pro ceedings that Judge Butler made a speech on the Fishery question. The correspondent of the Courier says: " Judge Butler is the only Senator, as yet, who las not joined in the clamor for wnr, or kept slence under the blast of the war trumpet. Judge Butler has ventured to suggest that at War between the United States and England would be a great disaster; and he is not quite certain that the words of the Convention do not exclude us from "British Bays-" " Mr. Seward is to speak to day-a second time-and lie will ride the war horse. le ean not get nitich aiead of Mr. Soule, however, be eause that Senator has appealed to the " higher law;" by eiaiming our tishing rights as the gift of God, ai above all treaties. "Should it be determined to continue the discussion. Judge Butler will speak at length on the merits of tle question. lie intimatedt this i'tetiion.

It is probable that the acensed will find a safe deliverance from this trial ; and it, is likely that they will eave the difliculty as a legpacy to the Djemocralic Admin istration." RUST IN COTTox.-The Newberry Sentinel says: "A ftientd of ours, a practical planter of large experience, stated in our hearing, on Mon day last, that salt. socwn at the rate of half a bushel per acre amonrst cotton is a certain remedy against rust. It will not only prevent the rust, but, will stay its ravages and restore the diseased plant to its wonted vigiir. IL is a simple remedy and worth a trial. This is the season for rust, and we give this informaltion that our armiers may try the retnedy. It' it pirove efl-eetuial, of which we have not the least doubt, it will be of immense beneit to the planting interests. We would like to receive the result of further trials."
