Ly evtivx. ARTHUR SIMKINS, EDITOR. EDGEFIELD, S. C. THURSDAY SEPTEMBER 21, 1854. WE are requested to say that the lion. P. S. Baoorcs, our immediate Representative, will address his fellow citizens-on Sale Day in November next. SEE First Page for certain articles which appeared in the Charleston Courier some time ago on the Bridge question, reproduced by request. Lallerstedtss Store. Tits is one of the very best of the Augusta Stores we are acquainted with. LALL.EIsTEDT is One of your plain, fair, downright dealers. li goodsare all sound and well selected. Call on him at the Globe corner when you go down. Horrible Affair. WE learn, from a source which cannot be doubted, that Mr. JESSE ScltiaT was killed in Newberry Dis trict, not far from the Edgefield line, on Tuesday last. The unfortunate deceased seems to have been shut while riding along the public road in his buggy. A negro boy, who was with him, was also killed. The weapon used is thought to have been a double-bar relled shot gut. The deed is said to have been done by a Dr. GUN-TER, who was at eunity with Mr. SCURRY. A Good Watermelon. WATFRXELONs, if good, are as good in September as in July. Mr. XAasu, the well known raiser of red and mealy melons, sent us the other day one of the good kind. It was great as well as good; and we return to the donor our juiciest thanks. Another Big Barbecue. WE are requested to announce that a Barbecue is to come off at or near B. X. SANDERS' on the Chappell's Ferry Road, upon Friday, the 29th inst. The people generally are invited to attend. All candidatex (poor fellows!) are especially invited. Messrs llaooxs'and GAftLNGTON are ernestly requested to be there too and to be prepared to speak. Good times may be ex pected, we know. Turn out, gentlemen, this will be about your last chiince for the season. Death of Major John C. Allen. Ir is with regret that we announce the deceaee of another old and useful citizen of Edgefield, whose name is at the head of this paragraph. 3Ia.orALLEx was one among those who have been for a log series of years identified with the people of thit District. The place which now " knows him no more" hasbeen his residence for considerably over a quarte- of a cen tury; and around him there, he had w ven the stromgest ties of neighborhood and good-feeling. flie was moreo ver a man widely known and generally esteemed by his fellow citizens throughout the Dlistrict. Ha% ing little or no aspiration fur political prominence, lie had remained much the greater portion of his life content with thepleasures and duties of home. But within a few years he had yielded to the solicitations of many friends and had come befere the people as a public man. lie was easily elected to the last Legislature and had, at the time of his death, an undoubted prospect of succes in the present canvass. In the death of Major ALLY.N our District has sus tained the loss of a most active and useful son, one who always had her best interests at heart. .Jeyies. cat in pace! Tellow rovor. Tim Hamburg Valley Pioner of the 20th inst. says. " Quite an excitement has prevailed in Augusta ince Friday last, in consequence of the yellow lever mak ing its appearance there. Two deaths occurred on Friday; three on Saturday; Sunday none, and Mon day two. * * * From the report of the Board of Health, we learn that there is a slight increase in the number of cases; they and the Doctors report from two to four cases per day. s "No case has yet occurred in Hamburg, and we are induced to hope, from the lateness of the setason amid the coolness of the weather, that we may niot be vi~sit mer, it has abated from 241 to 14. andh in time latter, from 50 to 33, which shiows considerable fallinig oih' in the number of deuuths per day." Tho Mt. Tabor Pic-nic. WE were too unwell to attendu this pleasuire pairty of last week ; but understanid fro~m mammy w hmo wenit. that it was a nmost delightful alliair. Tfhe ground hatd been very neatly preparedh with a phatfourm for dam cing, a stand for music amid a long tale fur edimog. There was :a plenty of fun amid good m lings of every kind for old and young, and all wenit hmome samislied. 'The dinner was so well gotten tip that .there could he nmo such thing as "fail'" in it'. Our pinmey woods co~ut try is getting to be thme greatest country a-going anmy how. Those whio wish to pmurchlase a location ouL there had better talk fast before we go up to twenty dollars per acre. Twelve dollars we regard nmow -a very common price. Almost a rire. Os Monday last time Methodbst Church of this place caught ott ire, from a spark wihm was wafted from an adjacent blaze. We are glad tim be able to state that no further damage was donte to time buildinig thian the bturniung of a patch of shingles ott tihe roof. Help was close at hand an') thme flames were speedily ex tinguihied. Tlhe Members of time Methodist Church desire us to expressm their thanks to those citizens who assisted so readily in thme emergenicy. A word to the Rlidge men. Wr'. hear it very shrewdly suspected thmat. time pre ference wviil he given:a time lower route by tihe Colum bia and Hamburg railroad company, whenm that com pany shall be formed. It is almost certain too that the Aikeni and New Market road will rua via Rdge field C. 11., instead of by Lotts, asm was first supposed. Thme Rtidge thterefuore, it would seem, is to be entirely :-ut nut. Look to your interests,:gentlemen-w e give yuu fair notice. You are gone unless you at least doitble that subscription for time Ridge route. Thlere ire .-:rong influences and great indocements at work againt-t you. Thie onily way to overbalance thema is to pile up your dimes until time scales turn in your fa vor.

In spite of this opinion (whichmisarmereopinmioni) we wish "EL.LA amid CLAR ENcE" success. The price of their baitiig is only 50 cemnts a year. Municipal Election. A-r an election recently held for members of Town Council in .this Village, t'ie following ticket was unani mously elected : SAst cS. Batooxcs, Intendant. WV. C. MIomAGNEC, G. A Aousow, R. T. Mtars and M. L. BoNutAs, Wardens. This ticket is a dry ticket and a railroad ticket. We hope it will also prove itself to be an internial improve ment ticket-we tmean within time limits of our corpo zation. Change of Weather. WE. have now every indication that Summer has bidden us adieu and that cool Antumn has fairly taken his standh for the season. To-tday is time Euptinox ; but thme gales and rains usually attendlt.nt upon it hav-e, we hope, passed ofl already. Thie renmdt has been a dieci ded cooling of the atmosphere. Onm Mlonday latst winter clothing was quite comfortable, theo thmermommeter stand ing at 620' early in time morning. A Texian paper (the Lavcca Register,) says of time weather on time 10th of the past month it wr~s so hot that ice could scarcely reduce time thermometer below 100n Fahtremnheit. But let the man speak for himself: We have never experienced warmer weather during our editorial esistenCe thanm we had time past week:| Tme thsermonmeter is standing at nerly 100) degrees while writing this article, being more titan half sub merged in ice water, that iis, time thmer-mometer not our selees. We think, from the phraseology &c, tihe question arises " who wrote the article, time editor or the ther mometer?" For our .own part, we woulki rather be the thermometer than the editor under the circuso sancecn, Capt. 33rooks. WF. learn that thii gentleman has been delivering a speech at various places recently, in which he cn ments upon the remarks made about him by " editors who have nothing to identify them with tlm.ir country except their pens and seissors." As we hajpen to have a rmajll competenicy, and as we onsiler curself as thoroughly identified with our Stle in terry par tiesdur as Ca pt. Brooks or any oiher mniti in it. we d not for a moment take this home. Still, we mu1w t say that even if we were in tie hare " je andI scissotrs " category, we should no, be athamed of our calling. Neither could any onse indure tie to believe that we were, because of ihtoe linite'd metanst, inay the ht-? ell tided to rank, in pint of uatrio.ism, ,air perhalis we should say b1retion to the interests of South Carolinul wit h our hialoraiie )I. C. himw.'elf. But when Capr. BihooKs eitne, to impnte to us "ig inorarce," and other wise allntdes in diretr teirmrus to our paper, we tust use our privilege of the pen in reply and in doing so we shall be brief. Capt. H. rays, that what we attributed to 31Dt'r. FtE is nwo where in print as uttered by him. We only asserted, that we beiered the remark was nade by McD. utnder the oaks of old Edefield, having refe'r ence of course to une of the many th-qiient anid sool stirring speecea he madhe to Ii,, conslituents, but few of which were ever reported. And this we piredicated upon hearing several gentlemen assert that Fiu e wai their itiprenaica. Where is the " ignoratce " a lu.led to I It tuay be thit it is so be found in tlufart of wai failing to observe that Dr. CoorzaN had poenntid a nim. ilar xentiment. But dues this show that McDervir never vitered il ? By to mean-, especially as Coo. PEa's Ilnguage is in quotation tmarks, which tenls to create the belief that it is horrowed even ly himt from osame one el-e. It may however he that we and on informants are in error. And, granuing ourselvec: to be so, what of it! IfHa Capt. lnaoy.8 teeer bewetn mistaken in his impresoions! Awl may riot others he so withnit exposiig themselves to tie clafrge of it! noratice ! We were misled (if indeed we were mi at all which we do not believe) by our 1;solaing that 31cDUrriE had said much of the Fame purpirt. One or two -pecimeni of his report-td and p-reed remari. we append, amerely to prove w0hat we say: Eitract front a sp-.elh made i JichI:-"W I hear a Southern inan speakir of t hi<; glorious ui'n. iethinks I sntufllreason in the tuiiti -ai."
