gg TUE Court of Common Pleas and General
Sessions commenced its sitting at. this place on day
before yesterday, 'Judge WiTaHas' presiding. His
Honor is looking unusually well. A pleasant term is
anticipated. There is no great amount of litigation.
The criminal docket too. is small. , Business seems to
be well prepared. And the wheels of the Court are
upon the w: ole, rolling on more smoothly than usual.
Er SAt.s day and Court brought a very large
crowd-to this place on Monday. It was not only a
large but a well-looking crowd. There was however
more liquor in circulation than usual. Where it
came from, could not so well be seen. But come it
did, and that too to the fuddling of a good many
noddles. No fighting however-in fact, no distur
bance of any kind.
9g" Mr. P. H. LARzt has relinquished the editor
ship of the " Edisto Clarion" and that paper is now
passed into another, called "The Southron," to be
conducted by a Mr. ELLIS. The notes of the " Clar
ion" gave not forth an uncertain sound while in life.
Even in death, its echoes still reverberate up and
down the sinuosities of the darkly limpid Edisto.
The " Soutkron" will doubtless catch up the perishing
strain,
"And send the bold challenge, with
shadowy mock,
From valley to valley again."
Ms. GaAv opened the "Carolina Hotel" in Ham

VISITORS OP DISTINCTION.
W E have had with us at our littde village, for a day
r two past, several visitors of distinction. Our Con
ressinal Representative, Hon. P. S. Baooxs, is
are looking finely and evidently fortified for the
oming winter's campaign. Col. GL.ADDEN, of sacred
almetto memory, is also with us. He has been so
runing for a week wi th Capt. Baooxs and has come
own to take a peep at our place. Long life and
rosperty to the gallant hero! Gen. GAItr.INGTON
and LAataaaT JonEs Esq., of Newberry, are here too
attendance upon our Court. We are glad to wel
ome these gentlemen to a participation in the business
f our District. Theit talents and legal attainments
teed but a fair showing to command the confidence of
or people.
THE PATRIOT AND lMAJ. PERRY.
The " Patriot" complains that, ti our last issue, we
mangled and garbled and suppressed the meaning
ofa sentence" of his, and asks if isis " fair," or "just,"
r "in character with that honorable courtesy which
belongs to gentlemen." The reader shall decade, after
being informed as to the extent of our offending.
In his issue of Sept. 13th, the editor of the " Patriot"
rites:
"-It" (the Constitution) " is our great protection and
asty in the Union, and toe should never abandon it,
or the Union, or permit ethers to abandon either the
one or the other." (The Italicizing is our own.)
We gathered from this sentence and placed at the
bead of a short paragraph, a sentiment, written thus:
" We shonld never abandon the Union Qr permt other.
o do it."-SoUTHntaN PATROT.
In presenting this as the language of the " Patriot,"
we were wrong in not giving the whole sentence
rrom which the word. were plucked ; and we hereby
heerfully record our "peccaui" for that sin of omis
ion. But the most casual glance, at the language In
roll of the " Patriot," and the language in part as
tsed by us, will show the intelligent reader that
we have neither " mangled," nor " garbled," nor
'tuppres'ed" a syllable bearing upon that one.
of the troo distinct ideas expressed by the "' Patriot,"
which attracted our attention. There distinct ideast
are, 1st. That we shoul never abandon the Constitu
ion nor . ermait others to dolit, and 2nd, That we should
eer abandon the Uinion nor permit others to do it.
rho disjunctive conjunction'"or," before " the Union"
ad "the other," would certainly lead any one, ac
uinted with the common rules of English raunstruc
ion, to believe that the writer intended " the Union"
o stand upon its uwn merits without any necessary
,onncction with " the Consttttution." So understan
lng tlte sentence, we divided it into two parts lesjust
ndicated. But it is unnecessary to a- ply the test uf
orthoepy in this case. Let any one read the sentence
aloud to ten men of good, hani sense (they need not
snow their A, B, C,) and we venture the opinion that
iine out of the ten will receive precisely the same im
~reion of'ta meaning that we did.
Major PER, however, says that by publishing
ais language in part we suppressed his meaning. This,
we suppse,is as much as to declare that he did not
mean toassert and does not sanction the naked prop..
utin that " we should never abandon. the Union or
permit others to do it." Until corrected, we embrace
and very gladly too) this interpretation of a sentence
which certainly did at first sight strike us as being
'4eeerble." In using that term, or any other of like
import, we hope it will be understood that we were
making political and not personal reflections. The
"intercourse, poblie andl'rivate," to which allusion
s made by the editor of the " Patriot," is appreciated
ally as much on our side as on his.
NEW NOMINATION NOR GOVERNOR.
A writer in the "Csroliniaa" nominates Genra
VAssas W. HARRIsoN, of Andersen, for neat governor
of South Carolina. We are not at all surprised at the
uironstanee; for, although the nomier Is quite a
ug man, yet there is not a genitlemant itsite'State
of purer alms or more sterling wortht. General Baa.
tasNa was a oollege elassmate of Ex-Governor~faw
t'ue. Since his gradnation, he has repeatedly. re
resented his Distriot in the State Legislature and al
ways withigmi acceptapee. .In the upper country ~of
Soutii Carolna there Is'no tlad'iore unobjectionable,
or who would command a mnbre cerdlal support for the
d:... in ....ltan; And we have reasen to believe
that he -an numb uy warm Mnd In.Charlesto
'and the - In his native Dfiriet he lias ever
from the scrambling for 6fSice wbich pre
too generally among our ,iJolibh Legislators.
His genuine modesty and high sense of proprietyalike
forbade his participation in the demoralzi4 system.
Yet he has been appreciated by his fellow-citizens
and drawn into their services, again and again,itia
manner honorable to himself as welltas creditable to
them. 'he Iegislatureof South Carolina could not ele
vate to the high position of Governora more trust-wor
thy or a more high-toned Carolinian.
THE GREAT NEWS.
Br. this time every one has heard that Siliastopol is
falen. We refer the reader to another columr. for all
the despatches we have been able to gather, throwing
light upon this immense piece of intelligence. Thou
sands of minds the world over are momently specula
ting upon the probable consequences of this grand
catastrophe. Out-sders everywhere are cudgelling
their brains to arrve at some rational conclusion as to
the course Russia and the Allies,respeetlvely,are likely
to pursue. In Western Europe, amid the.glorification
with which this long-hoped-for success has been re
ceived, there-is of course no other idea than that the
Russian Bear itdown, bartered, bruised, besmeared
with gore, his mangled paws uplifted in eager depre
cation of Allied veangance. In Russia, amid the
consternation that has douhtk followed upon the.
heels of this great disaster, the rallying hotes of the
Cossack bugle have perhaps for.the time .ieing lost
their accustomed power to enkindle the ardour of bat
tie. But the winter is coming on and the campaign of
1855 must speedily-close. Western enthusiasm will
have ample time to cool down to the point of calm,
refection; while the Russian cohorts will have abun
dant.scope and opportunity for refilling their ranks and
re-enkindling their dampened enthusiasm. In the mean
time there wtll be some five or six months of frigid
weather, well suited to the opening of new proposals
for peace and the. enactment of new- negotiations.
What is to be the result, of course no min knows.
Neither ALExXANDE,nfoe NArOrLEON, nor.VjoroarA's'
Premier would pretend to say more jost now than
that they will be guided entirely by circumstances.
Yet there is a set of men over here in America who
will know, or at any rate say they know, pretty much
all about the whole matter within a fortnight from the
day this great intelligence reached our shores. We
mean the busy, .ever-waking, never-sleeping, shrewd
ly--speculative,-and always-plsusihle editors of the
several New-Yor'k Dailies. What an 'Occasion for
them is the fall of poor Sebastopol! With what
grins of ecstatic delight must they have snatched
at their pens and ink-stands when first it was announ
ced that the allied bannera were waving in triumph
from her fated battlements. No time for 2Vja-fjit
sympathies with them. The eager world of Ameri
can readers must be posted up immediately as to what
may be expected next ; and those work-shops of the
brain, sometimes known as editorial sanctums, an all
in a stir to present the best possible analysis of matters,
as they now stand betweon the-Great Belligerents, and
an oracular announcement-of the results that must
ow therefrom. What if we presume to take 'a hand
at prophesy with these veterans of the quill! We
should simply say that, provided Sebastopol is really
crushed and the aissians unequivocally whipped, tW
last canon of this mighty war either has been fired or
soon will be. Of course we take the usual precaution
of leaving ourself a Delphic hole or two to creep out
at in case we should be wide of the mark.
AN AGRICULTURAL APPEAL.
Wt appeal to the farmers of Edgefield in behalf of
the recently instituted movement in our State to ad
vance the interests of their calling. The ef'ert is to
establish a State Agricultural Society titat shall be
eicient for good. To ensure this result, money is ab
olutely necessary. It is required, to establish a cen
tral agricultural publication, which shall at once be
the organ of the Association and the instrument .of
diffsing the right kind of agricultural inforniation.
I is needed moreover to set on f,.ot the first of a series
of agricultural Fairs to be holden annually at the capi
tal of South Carolina. Many substantial farmers are
aleady enlisted in this most necessarys enterprise; and
it is earnestly hoped that thousands of others t~h;h
ut the State,,are'ready top c-operate at-a Th'a, ~II
plas-is to sectire~a suffiienty:of~lifeniaeb'r85
piece, t6 afford-a respectable treasury at thie outset
Thats far the prospect is decidedly cheering, At lte
for mation of the society In August, some two thousand
dollars were readily obtained npon these life-member
ships. Since them, many other farmers have stepped
forward in the noble cause with an alacrity natural to
he generous and spirited promptings of their vocation.
in A bbeville alone, about four thousand dollars have
been subscribed upon she plan above indicated. In
Edgefield we believe but little ham as yet been accom
plished. The calculation, however, is to do a great
deal from this time on and especially during the pen
ding term of our Court of Common Please. Messrs.
S. S. -ToxPKits, G. A. ADDtsoN and other gentle;
men throughout the District are appointed a committee
for Edgefield, to receive the signatures of such persons
as desire to become life members of the Associa
tion. The editor of the " Adeertiser" is also connec
ed with them in that duty. Our business Is with the
farmers and planters of Edgefield. Without a design
to flatter, we beleive them to be as pure and public.
spirited men as caa be found in any part of our coun
try. The earnest hope is indulged that ,they wtlt
lend their assistance readily and gladly, for the fur
herance if the high purposes had in view by our
State Agricultural Society. It should be regarded
not only as a duty, but a privelege, to enter upon a
work that has for its sole object the amelioration of
the agriculhural interests of South Carulina. Not to
nstlt the liberal instincts of our farmers tby dwelling
n the obvious course which their patriotism end pro.
fesonal pride must suggest to them in this matter,
we only add that the above indicated committee are in
waiingto receive the names of life-members and to for.
ward them as soon as possible o ths Ezecutive Commit.
tee of the Association. Edgefield is not to be out-done in
the sustenance of so important an undertaking as that
here held up before her.
AN ARGUMENTUltg.AHOMINE.
Howevita mischievous, and even dangerous we
may regard the Know Nothing organization, there
are occasional isolated circumstances that really
speak right out in its behalf.. We have once or twice
remarked that the only reasonably good argument
to be urged in its favor, among us of South Carolina,
was the fact that a few of our very cleverest fellows
had espoused thie cause. There is now another item
before us which ought to tell perhaps with even
greater force. It is the circumstane of Hoaaom
GaRBr~s's absolutely disclaiming that he ever had
the slightest agilnity with the Order.
One Mr. PosEY of Alabama, it seems, wrote to the
old heretic that somebody had informed himn (Mr.
Posar,) that he (Mr. GaRErLY) was Know Nothing;
and he (Posar) having his(GamarLY's) reputation very
tenderly at heart, desired to know if it were really so..
Whereupon the-following response was forthcoming:
Sua: I never was consciously within a mile of a
Know Nothing lodge, and never could have been mn
duced to join one on any account. By placing your
foot against the author of the silly report noticed in
your letter~you will be certain to kick a great liar.
Yours, HORacE GasarL.v
A. F. Posr, Esq.
A lovely specimen, that! Is really makes uswish
that our friends of the New Party had a better cause.
THE VILAr-GE OF WArLUeAA.
A writer in the. " Greenville Mourntaineer" gives
an Interesting account of this settlement of Germnans
In the District of Pickens. In 1852 the first house In
the village was completed. There are now forty
familes comfortably and even handsomely housed.
The main street of the Village is a mile long, n ith
tasteful cottages on either side fur its whole length.
The original purchase contained twenty thousand
acres, for which Col. Jousru Gafasnax received from
the company $g7,000. It has proven a most fortunate
invetment for all concerned. As an instance of this,
a tract of 180 acres was sold tt a Mr. SenaoDra
for $700. He hat uinproved and embellished it to a
very considerable eztont and has recently refused for
is e6,500. A German nobleman, Baron VON Grstelt
saarrErx, has recently been recconnoitering in that
section with the idea of settling here a portion of the
peasantry from his German estates. The " Mountain
err's" correspondent adds: "If they are soch men
and women as I saw in and about Waihalla, they
will beoa valuable accession to the population of the
District and Stae.".
It is furthermore said that the Lutheran .Coljege,
tw loeated ih Lexington District, will perhiape be
removed to Ibis nie German village. The inhabi

"It seems to be -contended by the Carolina

6 o'clock AMW iosday, aqs~ t thie first frost
'hats b~een eye' ' :before. t.
Dr. Gordon, RIth o eflerfi he~ port of
Norfolk, says there is no-abatement of the fever,
except for laejk of victims. lHe thinks the dis
case is more malignant than it has ever been,
carrying off many in from 48 to '72 htours. He
thinks none witl escape the scourge.'
On Saturday it is estimiated that there were
about 40 deaths; and on Sunday morning about
31 were buried.
There were 19 deaths reported at Portsmouth
as having occurred on Sunday and but seven on
Monday.
The Richmond Dispatch says:
The mortality among the doctors on Satur
dny was surprising. Five physicias died on
that day in Norfolk and Portsmouth, viz: Dr.
Capry, of New York, Dr. Dilliard of Montg'nm
cry;-Ala., and Dr. Burns, in Norfok; and ..r.
Rizer, of Philadelphia, and Dr. Walter, of Bal
timore, in Portsmouth. Dr. Rizer had left
Portsmouth and. returned home once, but went
back again and fell a victim to the plague. This
is the largest mortality in one day among the
physiuiann, except on the 5th' September, when
seven died.

FATAL AFFRAY.-A serious affray occurred
at Sniake Pond, a few miles from Barnwell Court
House on Saturday last,. between William W.
Peyton and an old mian by the name of Moody,
in which the latter received several severe
wounds across his arms, with a ksife, serving
the main arteries, and .he bled to death in.less
thans twenty sminutes. 'There.had been a gathere
ing at the above uaned place (in that day, for
thse purpose ot shooting for a beet, and Peyton,
we aro informed, had asked this old man to loan
him his gun, but he refused, tearitng some damage
might be done, whereupon the wounds above
mentioned were inflicted. Besides the-death of
Moody, some live or six others were severely
stabbed, and one man had his nrfr broken, and
another had part of his nose etri off. We un
derstand a travellinjt grog-shop was in atten-.
<iance, and that the wounded w~ere all more or
less under' the Influence of 'liquor, which ac
counts for the bloody sbenes enacted. Peytont
had not been arrested 'up to the time of~ our
going'to press.-Barnwell Sentinel.
RAIL~tOAD ACerDENT.--On Wedniesday night,
the passenger train on the Wilmington and
Mancheter Road was thrown off the track, by
running over nine eows.' Fortunately, there
was no loss of life, or injury to any of the pa

OBITUARY.
-DIaa at the residence of W. T. Timmerman, in
thia Distriet, on the 24th Sept., at -15 minutes past
5 o'clock, P.M., Mrs. ELIZABETH CARSTEN,
reliet of the late JoAN C.ts-rN, of Charleston, S.
C., in the 63d year of her age.
Mirs. CAasTN as a strict member of the Luthe
ran Church ; and has been often beard to say that
her duty to'her leavenly Farther must.be attended
to' norning, noon and night in preference to any
thing of a worldly nature. She lived truly a pious
and devoted Christian life. She has left many
friends and relatives to mourn after her, but their
loss is her eteenal gain.. 1.
Ditta, on the l'0th uit., in the Village of Cam
bridge. El)NA CAROLINA, theonly daughter of
Tnouas C. and WaDsaLtA Gasmia, in the sixth year
of her age.
How sudden and -how overwhelming is this be.
reavement. She breathed her last quiet and calmly
amidst the -lamentations of many of her .youthful
friends, and in the - i;ns of a devoted father and
fond mother. From her infante; to the day of her
death little EDNA was the impersonatioi; of all that
-was lovely and amiable ; but alas I she is no morel.
That sweet voice that never disobeyed the command
of an affectionate mother while on earth, is now
heard with increased melody at the right hand of
God, chanting the praises of her Heavenly Fath
er. Let us say to the sorrowing father and weeping
mother, such a dispensation is but the voice of God
to his people, "B e ye also ready, for in such an
hour as ye know not, the Son of man cometh."
