Preston S. Brook", a Representative frpm Sonth CaiolI lna, inflictedA most summary'and,0o doubt *ell deservedi chastisement on Senator.Sumner, .im mediately after thei adjouriment of the Senate, on Thursday laiL We feel the greatest con6i-. dence that when all the circumstance attending the tr'anmetion and full particulart transpire the whole affair iill show that the very best teasons impelled Mr. Brooks to shower down this accu mulation of corrective justice on the head of the insulting champion of Massachusetts abolition :and anti-Southern feeling.: Words have been east back at these distur'bers of the national peace for so long a time, that now their audacity knows no limit. Appeals and remonlstrances have had no restraining results upon the ribald abuse and unmanly vituperations, with which the South and her institutions have been assailed, and the continuance of this strain causes South ern members to sit and hold their tongues, for no gentleman could afford to reply to them in their own coin of counterfeit patriotism, and the use of legitimate argument would be worse than nugatory in its effects upon them. From the letter of our Washington corres. pondent, it wi'l be seen that the first day of Sumner's speech was characterized by all these disgusting elements, and that his statements were corrected by our amiable and polite Sena. tor, Judge Evans. How far the second day's tirade outraged the patience of Southern men, is shown by the fact that direct contradietions and charges of falsehooa fell upon him from all quarters. ' We judge from this that South Caro lina still received a further dose of the whole sale decoction of villainy and abuse, and that a personal recrimination forced ir. Brooks to re sort to ptrsonal chastisement. Well, let the battle come-it is about as well that it should commence, and the first punishment fall on those who instigated all the mischief at Washington, as that it should be adjourned to the agents of Abolition politicians in Kanes. It makes but little difference who strikes the first blow. 10 bellion against the constitutional powerw of the government should be punished as summarily and as effectively when attempted in the Capt tol, as when delegated by the mischief-makers to their satelities in the Territories. The circle narrows, and the issue in some shape or other must come. In the name of conscience let it come now, and not be entailed on posterity as an accumulated curse, which will cru4h out the future, and enshroud in ruin the fairest pros pects of the common country.-Souh Carolinian. GRAN CHAPER OF GEORGIA. This body assembled in Grand Convocation, in the city of Augusta, on Wednesday morning, the 30th uIt., and continued its session until Fri6 evening, 2d inst. The attendance was vertfull-all the Chapters, except two or three, being represented. Businness of much impor. I tance to the Craft was transacted, and many useful improvements made in the external polity of the Order. The occasion was honored by the presence of a very distinguished companion from a neighboring jurisdiction ; we allude to I Dr. Albert G. Mackey, Grand High Priest of the Grand Chapter of~South Carolina, who aided with his counsel in transacting and perfecting the business of tho Convention. Dr. M. in our opinion, has contributed more " to dispense light and knowledge to the unenlightened," than any other man in the Southern country. His wri. tings have done much towards dispelling the darkness and gloom which had gathered around the history and jurisprudence of an Institution ; which datesfar back to a period " whereof the memory of man runneth not to the contrary." His Lexicon, has, fo'r severaul years, been the text-book of the Craft, in explaining and un. -riddling many of the mysterios technicalities, which were hitherto unintelligible to the broth. erhood generally. His work on Mfasonic Juris. prudence, recently issued from the prps, sup. plies ano her very important desid,-ratum to the expounder and administrator of Mansonic law, Having devoted many years of his life to the in. avestigation of the arcana, mysteries laws, and rites of the Order, he is eminently qualified foi tthe important work in which he is engaged. The 3 Masonic Order has become so extensively dif fused throughout the civilized world, and so in. sociey, that it has become an important part, of -our social system. Hence everything connected awith its external operations is a matter of pub. SIto interest. The whole superstructure being based upon the great virtues of charity and uni versal benevolence, it justly commands the at. tention and respect of every good mian through. obt the world. These considerations have suggested the pro. Spri .ty of thus calling special attention to the *proceedings of the severaL Grand bodies known to the Order. The following officers were eee ted for the ensuing Mlasonic year : 81.E. Philp T. Schley, G.H.P. " A. A. Gaulding, D. G. H. P. S- A. J. Lane, C " Win. S. Rockwell, G.S. E. C. T. Lewis, G. CI. E. C.

CHRISTIANITY AND SLAvERY.-The Bible, a is well known everywhere, recognizes slavery so explicitly and repeatedly that abolitionists, see ing no other way to escape, are beginning to turn infidels anid deny the authority of the in. Sspired volume. A correspondent of the Na. tional Intelligencer adds to the voice of scripture the following remarkable testimony from those who lived in the generation next but one to that of the Apostles. It is an authentic compilation of " The Church and House Book of the An. cint Christians," and the chapter is, "' How they who require to be instructed are to be examined before they are admitted." The extract is as follows: " Let their manners and their life be inquired into, and whether they be slaves or freemen; and if say ono be a stave, let himn be asked who is his master. Itf he be slave to one of the be. lievera, Let his master be asked if he can give him a good aharauter. If he cannot, let him be rejected until he show himself to be worthy of his master; but if he does give him a good char. iteter, let him be admitted, But if he be a slave to an heathen, let him be taught to please his. master, that the Word be not blasphemsed." The book is in the Congress Library, and any one who chooses can verify the quotation. Prof. SillIman, of Yale College, has written a long letter to the National Intelligencer, in which he attempts a vindication of his. recent Sunday night speech, urging the young men of IYale College to contribute Sharpe's rifles to the abolition emigrants to Kansas. On reading it. the former pupils of this once distinguished man will be pained not more by its violent fa naticism, than by its billy do~gmatism. Prof. Sillimian was once a man of liberal views, and has received the hospitality of the Sputh. The extent to which the Northern mind has become infected may be estimated from liis conduct. Silliman, Dutton & Co., have now become as notorious as Arthur Tappan & Co., onee were. Southern merchants ceased to purchase goods of Tappan, and he failed. We sincerely trust Southern parents will now ease to send their sons to be educated by Silliman & Co. If we may not contend in low invective with such men, and abuse baek Northern as they do South. erm institutions; we should at least have self respect enough to suspend intercourse.

Mr. WtLLIAMS, from LaGrange Ga., has it introduced to the people of Edgefield the famous plow known as " Warlick's Improved Plow ;" and it oc- ti curs to us that In less titan a year's time, numbers of 1I our citizens will be grateful to him for having done b so. If it is not a perfect implement of its kind, we v give up our judgment in such matters. It runs beau. 0 tifully, enters the earth without labor to the plowman ti and is adapted to every stage of a growing crop. With a Scooter hoe, it is admirable for siding corn and cotton, with a twisting shovel finely adapted to throwing up beds, and it can be worked with the eagle hoe with eqal success. It is at once light and strong; and our farmeis will miss much to their advantage if they neglect to avail themsefves of the presence of Mr. WILLIiAxs, with this noble agricultural implement. Mr. W. is at Mr. NicuoLAs's hotel in this place, and has on hand a good supply of these plows. Price $4,50 per stock. HURRAH FOR THE LADIES: The Cheraw Gazette says that "thie ladies of Ches. terfield village, on Saturlay evening, the 10th iAt., incited thereto by the deleterious effects produced upnn sundry persons by imbihing an exhilarating fuid some- I times called bald fcce, waited upon the seller thereof I in a body, and emphatically informed him that he must and should cease to deal out the liquid ifre. They. generously offered to pay him for his stock, that they might legally empty it on the ground. He preferred to remove from the village, which they consented to, provided he did so by last night, or they would wait upon him again." 3 MOREGOLD! - GOLD mines are getting to be almost as common as mole hills. The last Abbeville Banner conta-te the following: " We were shown, a few days since, a lump of gold, taken from the premses of Lewis Rich in this District, worth, we suppose, six or sven dol 'ars. The appearance of the rock, as described to us, near which it was found, aff rds the strongest evidence of an aunferous vein in the vicinity. Sometime since, we were shown specimen ore from the plantation of Mr. CUNNINGHAM ; but as we learn ed it was the intention to test its quality, we omitted to mention the fact, expecting soon to hear the result. We have also heard ttat a valuable mine has been discovered upon the premises of Col. JAs. E. CAr.HOUN. Who knowm but that old Ahheville may yet prove as rich in this precious mnineral, as the hills and plains of California 1" TRE VILL AGE OF MANNVING. According to notice of the Commisuiontrs (says the Sumter Watchssaa,) a sale of the lots composing'the future village of Manning, in Clarendon, took. place on Thursday last. We learn that the occasion called1 together quite a large assemblage or the citizens .of capital and influence, as well as of the people gene rally, and that much feeling and interest were mani fested. Considerable competition was maniifestedi three-fourth to one-eight acre, sold from sixty to four hundred ad flee dollars. Quite a number were sold, many of which to gentlemen expressing a purpose to their early improvement. The location is dlescribed as being pretty as well as eligible, and muc~h taste has been displayed in laying off and arranging the streew, plan &c., of the village. Our Clarendon friends will doubtless bring much spirit and capital to bear in the speedy building up and improving a place worthy the name it bears. We wishm them success in their designs, and hope soon to be able to record an advanced and advancing state of prosperity. CAPT.. BROOKS' CASTIGATION OF SENA TOR SUMINER. * " ithimnagain." HioN. P. S. Baor took an adlmirahle occasion the other day to give Mr. Senator SuxNza, of Massachu setts, a handsome drubbing. As we learn the particu Itars, the affatir was on this wise: 3Ma. SUMNER had just delivered himself of an elaborate abolition speech, which occupied the Senate a part of two successive days. The galleries were crowded during the time of its delivery with an Im mense and a greedy audience, made up in large part of Ma. SUMNxa's own abolition constituents, who had come on to hear theirgreat man make his great speech. In the course of that speech, however, he "slung his slosh" so m:mdly at large as to produce the denouement we now record. Our Representative, Ma Baoous, was among Ma. Senator Suiniza's and-ence, on the second day ; and it was on this day that SuuNaa, emnptied one of his vials of vile vitufberation 'on the head of Senator BUTLER, who was ihen absent at home. As soon am the speech was done and the Senate had adjnurned, Ma: Batoogs advanced to SuMNER and deman~ed some explanation or retraction of his a buse of Judge BUTLsa; and upon Suurura's refnsal to-accede to the proposition, our member fell to work tupon him with a cane he happened to have in hand at the moment. The beating Is said by all the reporters to have been a thorough one. Some say he received fifty stripes; yet we very much doubt If the Captain cared to ex ceed the legal number of thirty-nine, ustually applied to scampe. But the beauty and propriety of the pro. eeding onsists, to no small extent, in tihe fact that it was accomplished while yet the galleries had not emptieJ1 themselves, and while many of S UNN~a's constinents were probably there to lusk upon the deed. For our own pert, we feel that our Representative did esgetly right ; and w e are sture his people will com. Imend hlip htghly for it. We have often heard of a word in good season, but this is an act in good season. By the way, the battle'at Lawrence, Kansas, is said to have been fought only forty-eight hours before ; and it may be that a pssing bese wafted the spirit 1l of combat to the Capitol at Washington just in time for our member to cateh it up and aot out it's promp tings. Well, we hAve borne..insult long enough, and. now let the conflict come if it must. JUDGE BUTLER AND THE CONVENTION. A remark, said to have been made on a recent oc casion by Senator Burtaa to Mr. TAssa of Charles ton is referred to in the last number of the Edgefleld Informter, and we understand that our name has been . mentioned as primary authority for time statement. If so, the Informer's informant has certainly exaggerated what we said. Mr. Tass a, as we remember the re mark, said to us at Columbia in the course of a casual sonversation something to this effect: The last words Judge Burtia sid to me on leaving Washington the other day were, that " he was as much opposed to the ennvention as I was." Thim is precisely our remnem branee of Mr. T's expression. We cannot call to mind repeating it three times since it was made to us;', and we regret that we did mo at all, as , has been made the topic of a newspaper article. Judge BUTLEa states to us in subetanne as follows: Mr. Tausa called on the Judge in Washington cmty and-so pleased. the latter by his gentlemanly deport meat that any unpleasant feelings created by the (then) recent attack of the Mercury upon Judge B. were in a great usasure removed. When Mr. T. called to take leave of the-Senator., be did so with cordiality. The Juadge was at the time looking fbr the hour when he would be called to take part in a pending debate. cl In the mnean time he wes reading a late paper contain- V lag soes viulent strictures upon himself.
