Pori TA!' ADVEtTISER. Bmiision of Edgefield,-No. IV, No society can exist without law. and the law must be equally applied to every individual either by himself, or by the agency of Courts. When the individual applies it to himself, by obeying it, which is the general rule, he is still, in a great measure, dependiant on Courts and their con romitants for the means of doing it. But when he admits the law and denies the facts, or ad mits the facts and denies the law, applicable to his rights, it then becomes a case of litigation and he is wholly dependant on Courts for a remedy. I will attempt to substantiate these two propositions in the reverse order of stating them. Every law passed by the LegIslature operates equally throughout the State as a whole, but its operation is general, and not special, becansethe forcible application of law to a partitcular ind'widual must be determined by a Judge. The Legislative department of the Government commands indifferently all persons of the same political community, while the in. diiat department acts only onasingle individuals. So far as the administratiion'of justice is con cerned even the Executive department, whether represented by a Governor, SheritI Constable, or other Officer, is utterly powerless to enforce a right, or redress a wrong, without an express order from a Judge, and yet no Judge can exe cute even his own decrees. The stune law ex-' istsevery where in the State according to the theory of our Constitution, but the authority which enforces it, exists only passively and with out being perceived, until individual rights are contested so as to warrant the interference of a tribunal. - And though all forcible administra. .ion of the law in respect to private persons is deposited with the Judiciary, still no Judge can pronounce upon a Statute without applying it to a particular case. Judicial power then, is by its very nature, devoid of action. because it must be appealed to, before any binding result of the law can be produced. It is always ready to punish a criminal, redress a wrong, or interpret an Act at the request of an injured person, but it would be a Spanish Inquisition, instead of a Republican Court, if it were to pursue criminals, hunt ou t wrongs, or examine into evidence of its own accord. 1 repeat that neither the Legisla ture, the Executive, nor the whole body of pri vate citizens can determine a particular indi vidual ease to which any law shall be applied. l'his is the office of a Judge and Jury only, who stand between every individual and the law. . The most diabolical deed may be committed and thousauda may clamor against the delay of justice, but the law, in America at least, stands stock still, until it is set in motion by a Court, which must decide whether the offend -r or his property shall be dealt with according to the Statute or not.. A private ci:izen may and must start the Court. but that majestic giant called law sleeps as calmly as a helpless babe, until he is aroused into an avenging fury it may be, at the bidding of a simple Magistrate, or even an hum ble Judge of Ordinary. But of course the tribu nals of a higher jurisdiction are more frequently appealedtto for the redress of private grievances. If any one doubts the correctness of the proposi tion, that all law is administered by the Courts in this country, let him answer the following in terrogntory. * Whence comes. every process that affects the rights of your person. on your property, if not from the Courts ?. In support of the first propositon, that even the means of peacefully applying the-law to-one's self is. in a great degree, incidentall to Courts, it may be said that no man is willing to abide by the law in a particular ease until he knows what the law is, and that he cawanot learn it any where else half so well as in a Court room. It is an easy matter to remetmber a law that we ourselves have assisted to make-one which has been dis cussed in our hearing at the Haustinigs, mind en acted in part by our own votes at thme ballot-box, but. the great body of the law conies down to us its a legney from our ancestors. It is the ac eunmulated wisdom (of all ages, co'lected from the experiensce of all mankina, and can only be learned practica'lly by witnessing its fregnment appllientiohn in a judicial forum to the muhimudi. mius rights of every indivi.tual in society; But few men who amre niot lawyers by pirofession, ever read much inw, and yet tio man cnn approac~h a clear comprehensiont of thme Government under which he lives, or of the rights which are gruar antied to him :ms. a citizen unless he possess a general knowledge of the conistit ution, laws atnd customs of hits country. And as the great mamss of our people have neither the books tnor the leisure, taste and education tecessary to read theum understanidly, they must become students oif observation and con cersadon, to nequzire this general knowledge of the practient operation of their con~stit uiiont and :laws. The neth landed " Oral System" is indeed the only system for. itmpartin' to the --people this kind of knowledge, but not so foar instructing tenm ini thme othier vastly rich and inexhauistabte stores .f infrmatioin. TIhe Court House is to America what the "Market place" was to glo rinuis Greece and tioblo-Rotme. It is our only Collegec in which the richuand otheriseeduc~ated, a. well as thme pootr and illiterate cnn learn even imperfectly, the rights and p.aetical duties of a citizen as determined by thme laiw. It is in truth a Temtple of Justice where laws the onmnipotent Enmpress of Amerien,. is wi orshiped. Where an itnvisible butt invincible power compels the re fractory to do right, and speaking through the thouthm of a Judge, teaches thme requisite inf om iron as well as the wholesome examiple of volunz trt, obedienice to her mandates. * 'he lnw is e~qually .binding upon both the peaenhle and the Ii-igious mnembers of society. After one of tne forir~er class has long been ati attentive spect ator and docile pupil in thme Court, otJusticn, lie will often have occnsion to seek ad ditional information antd aid from a Laiwyer, whon is but a mninor Judge. All thme Attortieys and ~ther subordinate officials, who are hourly dia. >enaing justice without suits, in nine-tenths of he cases that arise unmder law are component parts of a Court, andi generally' take up their residence at the same pinece with the Court. This requires ilmnumerable visits to Lte Court Hotuse, en peaceful errands, especially when tak:n itt comnectionl with thme fact that all the written eon iracts between parties; all the mntniments of title to land atnd other properly ; all the evidence of lien upon estates; all the seetnrities .of suc cession to property, and itt short, almost the etn tire recorded history of governmental administ ra tion, wvhether Judicial or Exctive, are to be 'ound in Courts, and under the care and protec lion of their officers. It must thierefore be as clear as a noon day sun, that the t wo adtministra live branches of the Governmnet, which are at otee the shield and sword of every tnatn, have ito head qnarters save in a Cottrt House-thamt the penenble or litigious citizen is alike depen lant ott Courts and their ceomiLtnts for the neans of enjoying the blessing~s of law, and that he Court House of every D~istrict is as mtneh me only place for adtninistering the lnw to the eient or disobedient inhabitants of such Di4 riet, as Columibta is the only plnce for muakin"f he law for the whole State. This applies with suliar force to South Carolina, whtere our nu nerous Magistrates have a-civil jurisdiction of oly *"Twenty Dollars," atnd the mewre initiamtive fecriminal proceedinigs. And where thme judi einl oligei is very erroneously, as I think, reposed athe hands of butt afew mecn, who always hold sourt at one and the same place, and exercise nn :elusive general, original anid appelate jurisdie Sn in civil, crimitnal and equitable matters, but moe of this anon. How importanit therefore is 1that one of these Courts of such cotmprehen. ice jurrisdiction, should be easily accessible to very citizen in the State-where he may con eniemtly deposit and inspect Records-readily arn amid obey the law-frequently behold the appy example and feel the subduing infiniene ,f enforced obedience, as well as prefe-r cnm iints, if need be, and ask for anm order direct. pg tile Executive to protect his person or pro erty. To time end thmat her laws nmy be pro Irly taught, easily obeyed amnd fatirly adminuis ere'd, South Carolina has established wvithm inher arritory twenty-ninle Court Hol'useM, from each f whiebh equail and efficient justice is supposed 'radiate to a given boundary, but I assert that ry manmy, too many of her citizens haveu no(t flicnt, facilities, either for learning or obey gor enforciuig law-that ther territory is di ed into admminmistra:ive Distriets, without any gard to-equaility inm thei-r area,amid that some of r Court Homuses, even in the larger Distaicts, located with pariality in a non-centraml pe -oa. I am ready to admit that perhaps half of ' .,: stnJui.cal D;stricts -are quite as smamll Is they should be. T am equally prepared to :oncede that a few of her largest Districts in ter -itory, but which are among the smallest in popu ation, such as Beaufort, Colleton and others, should retain their present limits, until they gain nore population than they now possess, or un ess new Districts of convenient size and suffi. :ient poplation can be carved out of two or more of them, which I affirm can be done. But I deny hat Edgefield, Bnrnwell and other Districts, which have both a broad extent of territory and t much denser population, are in possession of .he necessary advantages, in the way of Court [louses, to which they are entitled. Time and apace are assuredly two very strong riends'or dangerous foes, in the largest as well is in the smallest transactions of this world, and hey are among the most efficient, alb! the fastest fillies which the Godess of Justice can claim as ter own. Her devotees, when they have to travel 'ar, or travel long, whether it be to carry a peace r litigious offering. often either forego the jour. ley, or are exhausted by the pilgrimage. As the ays of light grow more dim, or those of heat ore weak in departing from a common centre, o does Justice penetrate with less vigor as it eaves the remote Court House, whence only it :an emanate. Since the establishment of an in lependant Judiciary, as the sole power fur ad ninistering the laws, nothing contributes so nuch to the cause of justice, as convenient Ju licial Districts, affording to every citizen prompt iccess to the only place where Records are de. yosited, or where law speaks or listens to an in liidual.. The first object of every free State should be : afford such faei!ities for administering law as .hat every citizen may easily apply it to himself, ir if he will not, that as far as possible, every wrong may be redressed and every right en 'reed with equity, cheapness, ease and dispatch yy the agency of Courts. Over large and over >opulous Judicial Districts so far from affording uch facilities, sometimes prevent justice. being lone, frequently mete out imperfect justice, and ftentimes indirectly, work serious injustice to parties. len cannot dwell together without aw, and I have endeavored to prove that all ac ire law in South Carolina proceeds from the C. [louses. If this proposition be true, it must be .qnally conclusive, that just in proportion as the Court House of a people is difficult of access to peaceable citizens, or that just in proportion as procuring a Judicial order for the active applica tions of law is attended with expense, deluy and trouble, that in the same proportion such a peo. ple are without law, and tend in the direction of Anarchy. I am unalterably of the opinion, that it is the great size of Edgefield, as a Judicial and Blectoral District, of commensurate extent, that s the prime cause of the unenterprising, unso :ial, quarrelsome, fighting, murderous, anarchical haracter of our people. HARPER. ARTHUR SIMKINS, EDITOR. EDGEFIELD, S. C. WEDNESDAY IARCII 22, 1854. Ids' Wx return our thanks to Hons. A. P. BorUTLR fnd P. S. Baooxs for various .peeches, papers &c., f considerable interest. Our 2'irst Page. THE reader is referred to our first page for a large ortion of the very able speech recently delivered in he Senate of the United States by the IHon. A. P. BTLEa. Duxll Times. WE. have looked over many exchanges for the past week and have beeh brought to tthe conclusion that .he times are growing very dull. The Russiani War s getting to be a mnatter-of-course theme--the Nebras ga measures have been upon the tapis so long that ivery one is tired of the subject-the "Black War. -ior" business has failed to elicit a single fillibtuster ag demonstration-and the Gadsden Treaty is not (t before the conntry. While every one else is being ull, we claim the same privilege. "LZe Has Bleu." WE acknowledge the first nuniber of thispetite pub. ication, It is issued uinder the directior. of certain oung ladies of the " Jontssos Female Academy" at 4nderson C. H. It will doubtless beaa pleasant little nper for the young people interested and for thewir nany friends. Making its appearance, as it has done, n the Spring-ttme of thme year. we should have prefer. .d greeting our fair sister as " The Blue Bird" ra her than as " The Blue Stocking." In spite of her ame however we wish " Le Bas Bke" much suc ess. May she go on her way lightly and cheerily, " Roving forever from flower to flower, Kissing alt buds that are piretty and sweet."

Our rule s to publish no such notice unless it is accompanied >y what we regard a responsibile name. Some weeks go, we were careless enmough to publish a nmarriage viihout its being properly vouched. And we fear we were imposed upon. It is a mnean thing to implicate renteel people in a hoax of this kind, and any one wit ully perpetrating such a deed deserves severe repre tension, if not actual prosecution. "A Fut m ao" will trceive at once our reason for not publishing the otice he sends. It may be correct, or it umay not be. Prom Washington. By a letter received fronm a friend in Washingwton we learn that onr immediate representative, lHon. P. 9. Baooxs, has delivered a speech of munch merit upon he Nebraska bill. We append that portion of our riend's letter which has reference to this effoirt. WVasurtsToN, March 16, 1851. Cot. Baooes hass just delivered an excellent Speech > the Nehraska Bill, and crowded matny sound ar tnments, forcible reasonings, and patriotic views in is brief remarks on the various heatis of thme subject. He replied to those who speak and write against the 'olding of negroes in bondage as opposed to religion snd morals, and showed in vivid colors, the hypocrisy md injustice of the men wvho defame the Sutit and is ciizens, His defence of the character of the citi. lens of the Slave holding States, and his exposition f the prosperity and Commerce which the whole ~Jion derives from the agriculture of the Couon, To. acco and Rice growing $tates, were to the point, dt supported by statistics of an indisputable kind. His appeals to thme patriotism of the House to main. ai the integrity of the Union,. still in danger from ie machinations of the political abolitionist, aided by be ignoranace and prejudice of those who know noth g of the South, will be long rememubered by those whe heard him andl witnessed the honest earnestntess with which they were enforced. His Speech. wvhich t would be injustico to him to condense, wilt be read with pleasure by his constituents. Our Gold Diggings. I- has been supposed by some that the celebrated Lioan Mine was rapidly failing ; we had feared so among the rest from accounts received sonmc weeks igo. We have just been informed that this is all a nistake. The great original vein is again srsellintg to ts former dimensions and promises thousands upon iousands still. Thme New York Company are also hered by fins indications and will soon enlarge their iperations ten-fold. They confidently anticipate a nlden harvest. Mr. D. P. SICLF is also doing well n his premises. In short, the gold prospects with us are still brilliant. The Georgia Prophet on Ootton. Tx Scriven County man, who pretenads to foretell uture events by a machine lhe has invented, an unces that the price of Cotton in March 1855,will range from 5 to 7 cents per lb. His machine occasion iiy stumbles upon very strong probabilities, and this we rather guess is one of thetn. Look outr, Cotton A little from Each. As we are looking over our exchanges throughout the State this morning, we may as well'talie notes of what they have all been doing during thle past week. We will pick them up just as they lie upon one an other, withcut reference to the merits of this one or that. The Sumpter Banner turns up first. Ah! Can it be? The editor acknowledges not having read the speech of his immediate Congressional Representative (lHon. W. W. BoYCE) until the evening of the 14th inst. But he did read it then and concludes that "Mr. BorcE has proven himself a sound thinker and a deep reasoner." The Banner of the 15th has something about the " War," a compliment to " Le Bas Blen," a little about " Walker's Expedition," and a good deal on the subject of a trip recently made by the editar to Columbia. How feelingly the craft all speak of that fellow JANNEY in Columbia! We have noticed this repeatedly. Our friend of the Sumpter Banner re marks, in the sketch before us, that his Hotel is " the very beat in all the country." The number of the Banner before us is creditably filled and well printed. The ' Lexington Telegraph" is the next sheet we open. The Telegraph seems to be still driving away at the Newberry Sentinel. The two have been en gaged in a contest of wits for some time. We doubt not their coming out of it with sharpened weapons. They are practising upon each other quite freely. The Telegraph of last week is full of the proposed Rail Road between Columbia and Hamburg, and has a pertinent editorial upon the subject. Mr. MEETS! has been invited to speak at the Ridge on the 27th, but declines on account of other business.--We see that the citizens of Lexington have appointed dele gates to the Commercial Convention which is to meet in Charleston next month.-By the bye, we must not omit to mention here that the editor of the Telegraph has been sojourning with his lady in our village and vicinity for nearly a week. We were pleased to see him again and again at our office, and hope to hear that he has enjoyed his visit to our town.-On an. other column.will be found the proceedings of a Rail Road meeting recently held at Lexington C. House, at whicgresolutions adopting the Ridge route' and ab juring.any other, were unanimously agreed to. Next in our morning's budget, we find the "York yille Miscellany." What from the "son of York" to day ! Let us see.-Court was in session there, Judge WVtrTNEa presiding. There were no cases of unusual importance on the docket.-The Miscellany is hinting at the " Electoral Question," and inclines very clear ly towards giving the election of Presidential Elec turs to the people. Its columns, however, are offered to both sides. So are ours.-A writer in the Miscella ny speaks in high terms of Mr. BovcE's speech upon the Tariff. Well may he do so. It was a fine thing. We come now to the " Carolinian" of Friday and Saturday last. We are glad to learn thereby that Mr. MAvsaIN, the Intendant of Columbia, has arranged for an Engineer to survey the several routes spoken of for the Columbia and Hamburg Rail Road. This survey will be commenced early in April.-The Carolinian is out in defence of Judge WaTynas against an attack made upon him by the " Carolina Times.'' The Times, it seems, accused the Judge of " want of pa tience," "irascibility" &c., and attributed a late sud den adjourment of Conrt to his passionate tempera ment. The Caroh nian replies that it was perhaps more the fault of the bar than of the bench, the former not being prepared with their witnesses it due time. The last Fall Term for Edgefield was the occasion of a similar abrupt exercise of authority by Judge 0' Nr.LL; but out of respect to the ermine nothing was said about it. We are quite willing to excuse their Honors, so the thing is not carried too far. In Judge Wrr-unas' case, bodily afllictio'n-may have had some thing to do with his restlessness and excitability. If so, he should be jndged leniently.-The editor of the Carolinian speaks up for his town in a neat article of thme 18th. He speaks of it as the " Floral City of the South," andi upholds its salubrity as being quite equal to that of A iken, especially for consumptives. We dare say thmis toay he so. It has been often observed that cigars improve very rapidly at Columbia, owing to the excessive dryness of the atmosphere. The same peculiarity is what makes Aikena the resort it is. The chief difficulty in Columbia's way Is the fact that: Ai ken has thme stare of hter by great odds. Aiken has already a wide-spread and deserved reputation as the place for all threatened with Consumption, whereas Columbia, although a beautiful town in the Spring, has never been extolled in a book for the sanative pro perties atnd peculiarities of its climate and situation. Columbhia hmas, as the " Carolinian says, fine Hotel accomoadations; but, he it remembered, thmere is no better house in South Carolina than Swvatz's at Ai ken. Nor is thmis thme only one. We have been told that there are three or four other htouses either in the village or convenient to it, where fitne accomodations can be had. So that patients are by no means so crowded in Aiken as to beget " an atmosphtere of sick ness"-no mtore indeed than would be the case in Co lumbia. Next, we come to thme "Jnadependent (Abbeville) Press." Now for the news from the capital of our South Caralina Attica .-T he good people, is appears, have land Court thmere toos, and so much business was left unfinaished as to reqatire an "extra Cotirt" which is to be heal in the latter part of A pril.-The Press speaks ottt briefly in regard to the Concressitunaf Elec tion whtich is to come on regularly next October, and expresses thme opuinion that to oppose the present in cumrbent wvould lbe " a desperate untdertaking." This may or may not'he, according to circttmstances. It depends very mich upon thme position of A bbeville in the, matter.-Thae Press infornms tus that thte Grand .Jury of Ahhbeville have'recommended the Maine Li qttor l~tw,.nd adds thme opinion that it was " intnded aia compliment, to the presiding Jutdge." To c'om pliment him still futrther, they might have recoin metndetd "11Hot Corn" as a book deserving a place upon every lady's centre-table.-The etiior indulges in a glance at certain jail-hirds whom he had been visit ing. (in very pleasant style, by the way,) puffs " La Ban Bleu," the new-coiner at Anderson, and closes witha somethaig " personal." The" Southern Patriot" lies next. We open it and fitnd an account of A nderson Cotart, where the editor, Maj. Prtaa, practises. This is in the Major's usual style, rambling and htastily thrown together, hut quite ettertainin;. Then comes an article on " Pepular Education" in wIch sundry " Taber-like" passages are taken out af sundry reviews and held up to pumb lic re'prehension.-.After this, the editor speaks of the Gardiner Trrial, and describes Dr. Gsan t NFa as a man (tO all outward seemitng) at high and noble character. He thinks G Atntra " had neither a fair nor equal contest" and evidently doubts his crimninahaiy.-Col. Oaa next comae" in for a shower of thanks front the editor, who has just received from hisi "immediate Congressman," a box of hooks of great value, &c.-.. Then the " Carolina Time." is taken -hold of and spoken to pretty sharply fur leaning against a plain education ; after which the Editor's table is shown tip in full, and so ends the original department of the Pariot.-We observe that there are eight Catidi dates for the Office of Tax Collector in Greenville at this time.-But, for a Rail Road Town of two thous and inhiabitanats, what meaneth this scarcity of ad vertisements! The " Temperance Advocate" informs its readers that a mad dog was loose in Camden, and that the Town Council of Camden htad appointed a long list of delegates to the Commerc-ial Convention. TIhme Advocate then enters upon several brief notices of " Richland Court," " Le fas Blue," " Fort Hill," and so fortht; after which we find an article, depreca. ing Judge BUTL.ER's remarks upon the Maine Liquor Law (which our readers will find on our out-side this week.) Now, for the " Laurensville Herald." The " Rock Cut" has been at length cut throught, and the Rail Road cars may soon pufF up into the very streets or Lauren. town. That " rock cut" tins been a " hardI roatd to travel" It appears. No wondier the Herald shouts " over Jordant" on its completion.-Thme infoi mation is positively given in the Herald of the 17tht inst., that A. C. GAntrNGYON, Esq., of Newberry, is in the field for Congress. Col. 0. is a strong man on the other sidle of mthe Saluda, and will doubtless run a handsome race.-We are glad to learn that Lattrens village is improving rapidly. New Stores are going up one after another with ansual rapidity. The Herald urges still further improvements wvith mucli zeal. Wea now take tip the " Anderson Ga:ette." The Ga:ette tells us of thme advantages and merits of the Greenville and Ct'lumbia Rail Road, and asserts " that it is as little liable to damago from freshets as any Rail Road in the State."-We find further that the eitors of the Ga:ette have been invited to the Com smaller typo in future, so as to giig more matter. The" Court" comes in for an edisjrial next. Judge O'NEALL was presiding. It was not supposed that the week wouldl be consumed. 'The editors difer from the Judge on the Maine Law ,quesilon, on the Free School question and on the i~enetentiary ques tion. The question naturally arissi, what do they agree witli'him on 1 The record beibre -us sheweth not.-With the number before us, the second volume of the Garette closes. The " 1Iew errySentinel" so e from his watch tower, a note of welcome to Spr g, and then pro. ceeds to sympathise with the Cot asioners of Roads on account of their hard lot.-H lls us that the " Olio ministrels" had been perfu ti Newherry and that the "Greenville and C hia Railroad" was run over by both passenger a teight trains on or before the 15th inst.-He states some other inter esting fhects and concludes by sending his "compl i ments" to several M, C's for congressional favors. We observe that 188 bales of coton were sold'last week in the Newberry market-highest notch, 6 ct. The "Lancaster Ledger" exhibits his phix next. No news ot interest from Lancasterville this week, except that the editor of the Ledger is in the act of publishing it " Novel" from his own Port folio. We see that the Hon. Jont McQUaEN.has furnished the Clerk of the Court over theru with .a copy of the "Congressional Globe and Appendixf' for the use of citizens generally-a good example. The " Southern Rights Advocate" alludes to an atxilliary "Calhoun monument- assoeiation" which has just been formed by the ladies'of Old Pendleton, and feelingly urges the ladies oflhisDistrict to second their exertions.-The Advocate next makes mention of a native hand of ministrels, who' are denominated " Skeewees," and who are giving- concerts there to the home-ful ks. i hey are pronouriced " good."-We then have ai article headed " Our Court," in which Judge O'NEALL and Major PERRY are spoken of in terms of high praise. The "Greenville Mountaineer" states that about twenty delegates have been appointed in Greenville to attend the Commercial convention, and urges the Rail Raid companies to give a free passage down on that occasion.-The speech of J. WOFFORD TUCKER, on " Free schools," is published in the 3fountaineer before us, and the editor commends it strongly to the attention of his readers. The " Yorkville Remedy" has been to Charleston and gives upon his return certain uDottings by the I way." He recommends JANNEY of Columbia (here it is again) as the prince of landlords,-remarking that the said JANUtKY's " smiles and dinners. are both perfect ly irresistible." What a genius of a-fost this JANNEY must be ! The Remedy speaks well also of GAMLE at the Charleston "American" and of Mrs. KENNEDY, and of" Friend HURST" and of old BoxAa too. Bless the fellow ! he speaks well of all of them. The Charleston papers are all at the bottom of the pile, perhtaps to signify that they are the fundation upon which their country cousius build.-First, we take up The " Southern Baptist." And here we must be permitted to remark that the Baptist 'has become of late one of the most formidable assailers of Northern isms. Broadside after broadside has lipoured into the motley camp of Abolitionists, Fourierites, Higher-law men, &c., and all with must becoming Christian feel ing. In the number before us, "Women's Rights and Abolition" is the caption of a good,ariicle of this sort. We must lid the reverend editor " God speed" in his battling against sinful sehisms and unholy conbina titns. May lie prostrate the foes of hii religion with the skill of David and the might of Sampson ! The "Rentg News" is now open upon our table. Since the installatioan of Its new editor, the News has become a leading Metropolitan papere ,With Colonel ConstxouGHAM-s political sagacity and Mr. CARDoA's commercial know ledge at its helm, the Evening Keces niust be extensively .felt and appre'ciated. We have entirely agreed with the News in fin~'ing nothiing worth shooting about in the Nebraska hill. ~But we are not prepared to apiprove its implied wiries fur Russian success, which we gather from an article in the num ber now' befure us. We believe in tlie triumph of right, let what wvill come of it. It is the curb-stone. oaf ad. vaneing political science. We c~beed thtesa to all. Trhe." Charleston Mercury" and thie " Charleston Courier" are here i rapped up together. And, as we have already run out these dotting. to a sufficient length, we will suaffer them to reini so. We observe that several of our State exc-hanges are not in the pile before us-missing accidentally ' e suppose. "Eups of Eauphy." WE aie indebted io a friend for this little book. It is after the fashion of the '-Georgia Scenes" and is stupposed by somte to have been written by the same author. We have beeni unable however to see any traces of Lo~tsas ET's pen, except in the Iast one of the sketches now published-we mean " Oldl Jack." This is indeed a good one, antd we have langhied very heartily over it. We shall puit the ' Knaps of Kauphy' alonigside, of the 'Georgia Scenies' fur ' Old Jack's' sake alone. Facts for Imrs. Stowo. MO-T.EY arid t.AcKL.EDGE. were c-onvictedl of mur dering a slave and sentenced to death. In the lower part of South Carolina their sentence was carried out, and, in form of lawv, " they were hung until they were dad-dead--deadl." It is said that the father of one of these misledi rmen is very wealthy, and rumor has it that many thousands of dollars were offered for the son's resene. But the sentiment of the State, as wvell as the jnstiice of the Coorn, reprobated the barbarity commnitted, and the unfortunate offenders suffered the extreme penalty of the law. Here are two for one. athongh that one was a negro slave. Yet we Yen turn to say, that Madame HARRIET BErcliia and broad-hnsm'd old GEELK.Y will manage to distort the circumstance against the Sotsth and Southern slnavery. Again, certain negroesu in the county of Nottoway, Va., whio were mannmitted buy .their master at his death, have turgenitly petitioned the Leglslature of glint State to be permitted to go into the rightful posse.-sion of " ole massa's" next of kin."

Ox MOLT E. a septuagenarian autobiographer, has written a book entilted " Fifty yeairs in both Hlemis pheres," some pages of whlich are devoted tc. an ap prciation of Old Hickory's chararter. It appears that MouTr merchandized for a ldng tinie in New Orleans anti was a resideint there at the time of PA cK EntAit's defeat. Hie seems tnot to hiave fancied JacK SON particularly, although giving hiim credit for sime highs qualities. In the c-ourse of a brief description of a festive scene hie witnessed on the evening of the great victory, Mr. MOL.TE gives the following gnther ludirous incident: " After supper the hero of the day gave its the dl veting spectacle of a pa. de denug between him and his wife--an Irish emigrant of luw origin and cons'd-. enble corpulence, whom lie had iaken away from a planter in Georgia. To see these two, the General a long, I-an man with skeleton-like limbs, and his wife, a short, thick specimen of the female figure, datnsing opposite to each oilier like half-denniken Inidians, to the wild tune of " Opossum up agiim tree," was truly one of thuse remarkable spectac-les whlich would be sought in vain in any European ballet." These were " old times older," it must be remem bered, before the polish of modern refinement had reached the Tennessee country. Mr. and Mrns.
