EDGEFIELD, S. C. WEDNESDAY JANUARY 12, 1853. WsE call attention to:he new advertisements of SyownF% & StEAR and of Wit.i.tIA 11. CRAxx, all of Augusta. They have every kind of goods, from the commonest to the richest texture, and their prices are in accordance witi the times. 50 ELECTION. IN consequence of some irregularity, the nature of which we are not precisely cognisant of, the Mana gets repuorted no result from the election recently held to fill the vacancy in our Legislative delegation. Whether new writs of election will be issued, or whether the whole matter will be left to the decision of the Ilotise of Representatives at its next sestion, deponent sayeth not. We have received no list of the Polls and cannot therefore give the exact result. FOUR MILE BRANCI ACADEMY. ntis excellent Institution, which has been in suc cessful operation for several years, was re-opened for the year 1853 on the 3rd inst. For further particulars, see advertisement in another column. From our knowledge of; the gentlemen connected with this school and from sundry items of informa tion we have received as t3 its very skillful manage ment, we run no risk in pronouncing it fully entitled to the liberal support of our enlightened section. CONGRESS. WE have been instructed, by third persons, to state that Col. PIcF.ss will have no hesitation in serving the Congressional )istrict to the best of his ability, if the people think proper to elect him their Representative at the Election to be held in February next. This consent is given in consequence of re peated and strong solicitations which have come up fon different sections. Ile still, however, adheres to his purpose of refraining front a political canvass, and leaves the matter entirely to his friends. GRAND CIRCUS AND MENAGERIE. TnEy are coming. Who? Nothing less than SRoassos & ELDREOs famous Circus Company, with the addition of a most imposing array of wild Animals &c. Jump up boys, and kick your heels ! Roll over inan agony of delight, ye little darkies! rin with satisfaction, old folks! (For we well now it is as joyful intelligence to you as to the young people.) All of you, prepare your change in time-for the hiand-bills are tup in Doiiv'S piaza, nd the Show will be here this day week, 3Mr. 3Merri man, IPandy Jack and all. IHurrah for us! If we can't got pudditng we'll gladly take pie. If we can't get an Opera. we'll take a (ircns and a MIonkey show. A f:er all, a Circus, with its attendant circum stances of tinsel, stockitnot; spotted horses, brass-band 'iiiiic and saw-dust, is a notable cvent in village life. AndI it delights our editorial pe to mark it down. Turn to the~ Advertisement and dlevour it. ONLY' 0lI SAY', a~ EN0'Gll!" I-r is rather amusing to read the opinions of our Ninisters and Charges in Foreign Courts, itt reference to the adequacy of their salaries to meet the necessi ties of their rrespertive missions. They have all writen letters home upon this point. in accordance (if we are not at fault) wvithi a resolution passed lby the Unaited States Senate requesting information in tle prenmises. Of course it was to be expected that the general response, upo.n atny such hint, wotild lie 'Give, giv-:.'" This is bitt hmaniii ntature all the world over. Accordingly, we find that the whole of them, with a sinigle and a sinagular exceptiont, says that his pa is not enough. Th'e. Charge at Buenos Ayres "suipposes that seven thousand dollars per annum is the very least amount for which a diplomatic agentt of any, gre could li~ve in that city." Theli Chiarge at Caracas replies that by the closest economy he has got along with a very small fantily, without having to exceed his salary inore thtan a few hudredl dollars each year. I'The Charge to Lima~ states that " inasmuch as the salry allowed him by the Governmtient is only $150, a year, antd the expentses of his oilicial resi lence are at least $7,351, it follons that he is serving the coitury at a cost (to hinmself) of about $3000 per oanum. Vecry clear reasoninig that! Mr. RAsoitru CLAy is evidenttly in earitest about the miatter. MIr. YE:I.v en-ros KIse, who serves his country at higota, seems to be of opinli'in that his pay will do tolraly well, proevidled his official entertainments are suff'ered to pass oIlywithout wimies and oither extras. As nuch as to say, sturely the Senate of the Amtericani Union will allow stome htudreds moore. rather than that their Represenstative in flogota should suffer this shame before the wvorld. Our Charge at Lisbon saiys distkaetly that $5800 wil jest suflice him with great care anid by living very uinostetntatiously. But, if his governnmnt expects him to entertain his own countrymn. or fure igntes at diner or evening; parties, it will take-.oh! a great deal more to answer his purposes. lie dent say how au, truisting (we imagine) that the Seniate's he neficence may do more for' hims thian lie would in any wise ask. V'ery sensible in you, Mr. lIanoocK ! 3r. EowAan Joy 310ats, who is at Naples, al most swears that lie does not receive half enough. Amog other contsiderations, lie cites the fact of an English liinister Plenipotentiary who ruceives $28, 000 a year, as if this were a oase im poilt whein xaking of a mere Charge. The letter of Mr. Larut:a S~vsaA-scca, who is Charge at the Sandwich Islatnds, is a regulatrplio principii. HeI assumes that the Department kntows well enough that his co~mpensationi does not deserAe te name, andI only writes lest his case should be overlooked at Washington for watnt of a friend to bring hinm to notice. Thtat's a sort of a blu fT game the gentlemarn fro~n the Sand wich Islands is playing. But we now come to ihie larger fa'h, .Mr. A uso'r L.:w ar~er, Minister to the Court of St. hmes, puts down twenty thousand dollars as the heas~t amount which will mneot the exigencies and re qurrennts of that position. This is $11,000 ruoro l . a Stiniste'r receives from our Governtenit. Mr. L tittls it proper to.audd th.st lie has ceeeder4 the $0d0eery yeas O) r MJinister to Spain bcgins by asserting that n Madrid is, by odds, the dearest Capitol in all Eu. rope" Our readers aan im girne the rest. Of course, if AssoT L.\w a.ENcE gets $2%000O, lie- ought to get at least thirty thousand. Buet really, according to M~r. Baaione's account, Nladritl must be a terri bly expeisive ptae. Only mu think of woud selling at one cent a pound! We mentioni this as one of; the strong points of Mr. S's comiuciiation. Perhaps it ,vill go a great, way towards raising his salary.-. w bhoulld'nt be surprised. Our .Katers to the other Courts of Chirimtondom.1 srite in prenty mutch the same strain. lA dp, several athter little Chasrges. In the whole list, we (imd bu yue wan who says in plaIn Anglo-Saxon thiat he re eives qute as rnneh pay as he needs. This is Mre ScuLnoEuza, our~ Charge M Stockholm. And this .- imen, aLD.A wQ vensture to say, is a jew~el of a Republican. Not that we would cast any imputa tion upon our other foreign servants-but to find inl Mr. 8's brief and modest letter a variation from the general cry for mnore-more-more, is something so refreshihg that we are minded to conclude this ar ticle by giving his language -erbatim ct literalim. Here it is: "I would say that I consider the resources provided for the charge d'affaires at this place to le sufficient; and I would add, that an my belief, and inl consider at ion of the peculiar structure of the society, a dimu itition of those resources miglg impair the power tu be useful." OUR VILLAGE ACADEMIES, BOTH Male and Female, were opened on Monday last-the Male Academy under the charge of 31r. LarrNER, the Female, under the supervision and guidance of their fonner Rectors. We have onl5 one remark to make, in regard to the merits of these schools, at this time. It is, that each one of then it equal to any similar Institution in South Carolina. Our advice to all of our fellow-citizens, who desire to give their children superior advantages and at the same time to foster edteational enterprise at home, is to send their boys and girls to one or the other ol these Institutions immediately. If they prefer othe schools in this or the adjoining Districts, we have not a word of objection to urge. If they have no such preference, however, we earnestly appeal to them tc lend us their help, and we will soon show them that they have done a wise thing. This we say, because, while we aro very willing to believe that other tcigh boring schools are all they profess to be, we know that ours are excellent ones, ably supplied with instruc tors and well provided in every respect. The oppor tunity being now fairly and fully ofTered to the peo ple of Edgefield of carrying into permanent existence District Schools of the highest grade, it remains ta be seen whether they will embrace it. We believe they will. 31any are already doing so--others are making preparations to follow their example, and we have faith enough in the intelligence, sagacity and pride of our people, to believe that many more o. them will come and do likewise. EDITORIAL CHAiNGES. Mn. F.%aa. one of the associnte editors of the Abbeville Banner," has relinquisled his imterest in thatsheet to 31r. CuaTnEs BI. A.i.EN, who wam formerly its sole proprietor. Under the skillful direc tion of this last named gentleman, the Banner will float to the breeze on its new voyage. May it be a prosperous one ! The " Ilamhurg Reprnirant" has recently passed from the hands of 31r. J. M. Rrosnso., having beer purchased lay !1r. IAtRD. Whether its publieatiot will be continued or not we are anable to say. Mr. I. speaks of " hanging out his editorial shingle" elsewhere. May he have natch better luck than the gentleman hito "lhng out his banner on the outet wall!" 31r. C. C. Pucgr'r has also sold his part of the . Southern Rights Advocate" to his ca-editor, 31r. T. J. RANDAL. The Adrocte has been heretofore one of the most complete papers in the State, and wev doubt not it will still progress as usual. TRIP TO AUGUSTA. Pun HArs many will say, " well, a trip to A ugusta is nothing to make a newspaper paragraph out of we have all accomplished that great feat over anda] over again ; and, now the Plank Road is reaching our neighborhood, we are pretty much in town, a one nmy say. and know about as much of the daoiang there as you can tell in." This may all be exactly true, good reader; yet we have broached our suhject anti intend to fullon it up, for a brief space at any rate. And this we do, not from any special attach meent to our caption, but because our experience lasa tatght us tat te Editor, who begins an article and looks back, will make as slow progress itn keeping pace with the Press as did Lot's wife in getuitag out o1 Sodoam. So here goes. We heard, befure leaving home, that the road we usually took to reach the Pinc IHouse, was almost inpassable in one or two places. This indauced us to try another, viz: the old one which leads lay Iotrzr' Cross Roads. Anad a miserable blunder we zmade of it, truly'. For saome two miles, it proved to he jus "a leetle" worse than thec Devil's Rauce Pathts ia Abeville ever were to our knowledge. WVe dona ktow what Comanissione-r presides over this suacces sion of bogs anda gullies ; but we do- know that thais part of Ihis doamianion is in a condition which calls faar his immsediate attention.

Oterwise the worthcy official mnight cap the climax at his very succesfutl supervision,.hby bec'omting a martyr in the road cause, whlich sacrafice thte country by no meanas would dematnd of haim. After running the risk of upsetting ouar fanuily at least a doz7ent timtes, losing a screw oar t wo tand break ing an exeaslhent sinagle-trec, we succeeded att last in raching terra fima somtewhere itn the nteighboarhiood of frientd 31..tstt's residetnce. Soona after, we struckl the tapper terminus of the Plank Road andl thena all nas righat. Th~fe chanige was really delighatful. And we theta oppreciated the excellence of this work more flly thana we htave ever donte before. With the ex eeption (of a shtort intervtal, this roaad is nouw com pleted fraarr the Pine House to Jiamuburg, which, as nust of our readers know, is a distainee of twventy miles.

A Railroad passing thiroughi ottr village would doubt less give it arrair of bustle and life, whish are thte usul indications of a prosperouis commtunrity, baut at te samns time very deceptive in muany instances. WVita the assistance of the Plank Road, our facilities for travel, for the hauling off of produce, and foar the regular and speedy returnl of all suach goods andl conmolities as we meay need, will not be match info. ror ta those which othter coitmunities enajoy undirer the Steam system. At thec same time, we wilI be free fro the annoyances uisually csannmected witha mere Railradl stationrs; for villages upoan a line of Rail ada are seldotm any thaing more. In a word, we wail. till have a pleasant, retired and qutiet little town, with easy andl comfurtabale access itnto the hig, huast hog worldl aroutnd us..--But, to returtt to our trip-.

We are here reminded of a remark made to us the other day > a, very intelliarent Alabamaian. It was to tile of iet, tht il( ever he camo back to this country, just would be the one of his choice. So much for the en couragemnent of our Piney Woods farmers. We reached Augusta at sun-set and took lodgings at the old United States Hotel, which has always been with us a favorite house. It is now kept re imarkably well. The table is decidedly good, without any extra pretetnions. The chambers are fitted up anew in a neat, cleanly and comfortable style. The attention of servants is prompt and satisfactory. And, taking all things into consideration, we make no hesitation in recommending it to our readers as the most agreeable and convenient stopping-place in Augusta. We must not omit to boast of the delight ful fresh Shad, which, among many other good things, were served up several times during our stay. The cofTee maniufactured hero also deserves to be noticed for its excellence, as this is an article which we sel dom find good in large hotels. Soon after reaching the city, our enquiry as to the publie amusements of the evening (which is about the first one with country people generally) was answered by the information that the celebrated 3iagician, 3ACA LLttTEtt, was to hold forth at 71 o'clock in Concert Hall, this being " positively his last appear ance in Auguista-but one." We accordingly got our supper and posted off to see and heair MAcALLIS TER. His exhibition was at once entertaining and obtounding. Among other things (now, listen, boys and girls!) this artful 1 Wizard of the North," as he calls himself, turned Canary birds into eggs and eggs back again Into Canary birds in a twinkling. lie burned a lot of pocket-handkerchiefs borrowed from the audience, and restored them Instantly to their original condition by the stroke of his wand. lie caused an orange bush, in bloom, to bring forth ripe oranges before a stuttering man could say "Jack Robinson." But, greater still than all, ie took a commtuoni black bottle (or what was apparently such) and gave to various persons any kind of liquors, wines, cordials &c., they desired. The bottle as suredly conld not hold more than a qtrart, and yet lie seemed to pour from it several gallons of the aforesaid drinks, besides any quantity of water. Of course there is some hidden mechanism upon which this trick delieds. But it is, thus far, safe from the public ken, and every one is obliged to acknowledge it a very singular, if not a wouderful performance. The Hall was crowded and the audience generally seemed to be enraptured. It is certainly a kind of Exhibition which does remarkably well for once; but how any one can fancy a fifth and sixth repetition of it, we are at a loss to undermtand. The people of Angusta seem carried away by 3MAcA Lt.sET ; but, a year ago, they could scarcely afford one full house to a very respectable Operatic corps. Whether this sipeaks well for the elevation of their taste we leave others to determinc. Augusta seems to be in a flourishing condition. Tho prophecies which were made last winter, of its approaching decline, have proved fallacious. Broad Street presents, even on the last day of the week, a very animated and business-like appearance. The mer chants of this city are polite and accommodating, and frequently give to purchasers excellent bargains. We have had some experience with them in the Dry Goods line, and take pleasure in recommeniling the establisliments of SNOWDEN & SIMAa, GRAY BnO TIRs.31LLt.F & Co., SETZE, CRANK, NvwDY &C., to Af1 who uiny visit Augusta for shopping purposes. We observe that the Bridge of the South Carolina Railroad Company is progressing fitely, as also the ereeuioin of their Depot on the Georgia side. The f')rmer is just above the old Augusta bridge and promises to be an exceedingly strong and enduring trticture. The latter is being built of brick, in handsome style, on the site of those old Dutch shan ties which were (luckily for the city) consumed by fire somse time last year. An admirable substitute indeed . Duri-ng the present week, the Roces come off'on tl~e l.afayette c:ouree, aud we were informned by sev eral umemlers of the Jockey Cluib that they are to lbe muore attractive anid exciting than they have beent for a nuomber of years. Thme stables are superbly supplied with the most high-blooded stock from va rious quarters, and, for alimost every day last week, we learned that thme course was visited by crowds to witness the preparatory exercises of these gallant steeds. Gentlemuen from Virgiinia, Alabiama and elsewhere were al-ready in attendance, and many others were expected. All anticipate the liveliens kind of tiimes. NVhilhe down-, we had she satisfhection of forming the acquaintance of 3Mr. WurTE, one of the Eiditors oif the Georgia Ihome Gu:eu~e and a very gentlemanily fellow at that. We were pleased to learn that his paper is gaining ground, as it deserves. Should any of our readers feel inclined to stubscribe for an in teresting Liuerary Jotirnial, we commeiii to them the - ome Ga:ciie" as worthy of their patronage. In Hlamubarg we spent the most of Satomrday, bet were so much enigaigeid with business as to be unabAe to look arimmal much.

There isu a degree of enterprise andI wealth enlisted ini its behalf which augors well for their prospects. At another time we propose to speak moore folly of this project.
