' TE:NOTH AND THE SOUTH. The ensuing elections in the Northern States are looked to with much anxiety by all conserva tives as-most likely to determine the question of Union or disunion. The condition of affairs+ in Congress shows very prominently that legisla tion there is becoming rapidly sectional, and if the Democratic party does not act up to its as samed obligations in the present canvass, and the Black Republicans succeed in fixing their influence on the councils of the confederacy, the Union will terminate. We of the South have long been impressed with the necessity of preparing for the change, and our people are thoroughly satisfied that we have within us the elements not only of exis tenee and strength, but of wealth and greatessa as an independent people. Whatever may be the views of the North we know our position, and are entirely willing to assume the responsi bility if forced upon us. We have no fears on this subject; as a practical fact we are ready for disunion. But while these are our convictions and feel ings, and we constantly have aggression making upon us, on our vital interests and institutions. we are still disposed to forbear the severance if there be any prospect of a continuance in a con federacy which was framed on a basis of equal rights, and these guaranteed by a written Constitution. We have borne very much, which has brought on farther aggression ; but the events whirb have transpirod during the past year have brought matters to the point of a settlement by the appro:tching elections. So far as South Carolina is concerned, she has decided against separate secession, and she awaits the combined action of her sister South ern States to indicate the course which honor and interest require. In common with them, she has taken part in one more effort to unite the Democracy of the whole country North and South, for the defence of the Constitution. In this great effort, she will f.llow the lead of Vir ginia, in casting her vote for James Buchanan, who whatever may have been his former position. is right now in adopting the p.inciplea and pledges whiclr are sati<f:ctory to the South. What if he formerly held opinion< at 'variance with those he now professes-look into the hi4 tory ef our own great statesmen and you will find that their opinions on many vital questions have differed with circuinstances. Tempora enntantur et nos mutamur illis. Policy varies and so do statesmen. In individuiats, in e.,rpora. tioins, in States, anrl in Government, circumstan ces require chiage in the great case of humatn progress. lIn our presentt position in political affasirs, Ihe that is not with as ia against us, nnd those who profess friendship must show it by acts. We have a pledge front-the Demnoeracy of the Union to stand up to -our principles. We anait wvih anxiety their redemption of that pledge. By their vote the Democracy of the free States will showv whether union'with them is longer desira ble. If they are true to principle,- we believe our people, whatever their willingness may be for separate independence, are quite atislied to go on-nay would prefer to. continue the con federacy of their fathers if they can enjoy its privileges on equal terms with those who are associated with them. The Democratie party is the only one which has ever been willing to assumesa position satis factory to us. We now look to it with confi dence tbat it will support the only principles that will save the Union.-South Carolinian. How. Parsroa S. Bacoos.-The Richmond Enquirer in a notice of this gentleman's address to his constituents, says: "It is not easy to untderstand the embarrass ments of Mr. Brgoks' position. The act which so suddenly exposed him to public observatiotn, however justified by adequate provocation, ne cessarily associated his name with ideas of in temperate passion and physical violence, rather than of personal dignity and intellecttual power. Yet every one who knows Mr. Brooks, will at. teat the reserve and modesty of his character, his aversion to anything like a rufiian reputation and his chastened aspiration for the fame of a purely intellectual prowess. The chastisement of Sumner left even upon those who applauded the act an impression altogether inconsistent with the only distin'ftion which Mr. Brooks covet.. He had therefore to show by his sub sequent conduct that though of fearless spirit he is nothing of the bully, and that ho is pos essed of higher and worthier qualities than mere physical strength or moral intrepidity. And this vindication too he had to accomnplish in the face of every sort of embarrasuiment and obstacle-of friends counselling a timid course or pushing him to desperation-of a treacher. ous foe skulking from fair and equal combat and tying in wait for the mistakes of a brave and generous spirit. " How Mr. Brooks has borne himself through trials to which no man in this country was ever before subjected-how he confronted an army of Black Republicans clamoring for his blood by secret stab. or open assault-how he encounter and unhorsed every abolitionist who ventured to enter the lists against him-how lie exposed their counterfeit courage, and chased them from the field-with what a brave spirit he has en dured every species 'of obloquy and perseca. tion-with what an imperturable self-possession and unerring instinct of judgment he has coin trolled his conduct-in what terms of stinging scorn and fierce defiance he repelled the censure of a Black Republican majority, and in what eloquent language, ho vindicated hImself and his State from the itbela of the cowardly ealumn niator;-all this is too familiar for repetition in the columns of a Southern journal. It is eunought to say, that Mr. Brooks' character and abilities are not now appreciated only, by his intimate friends, but are recognised and applatuded by the people of the South; and that the verdict of his constituents on the chastisement of Sum. er, will express the ,universal sense of this section of the country. DECIDEDL,1 RicH.-It will be remembered that an account of a cantirig at the Metropolitan Hotel by Mr. Vicks, who thrashed Stanwood ueverely, appeared in our columns a few days since. Connected with Mr. Vicks we have a tale to unfold which willi'make the abolitionists of Philadelphia feel very cheap. It seems that when Mr. Vicks was about to leave North Carolina in company with Mr. Haywood on a Northern pleasure tour, he was requested by the State authorities to take with him a negrowho had been sentenced to banish. meat from North Carolina for a glaring outrage upon the laws of that State. Mr. V. consented and on his arrival at the Hotel in Philadelphia be registered his name Vicks and Servant. Soon after the A bolitionists appeared and used every persasion to induce the negro to abscond: and hinformed Mr. V. that they offered him 650 to run of. Mr. V. adviced the boy to demand *100. The amount wras paid and the banished legro *ho. wqp. taken to the North to be left there, received al d uneirpectedly and is now re. iding amnong a class of people altogether worthy sisocition.

IGGOT,......... WM. REYNOLDS, - : FORD, HOWARD H. CALDWELL. GREAT FLOOD IN FLoRIDA.-The Tampa Pen insular of the 19th ult. gives the following ac count of the disastrous floods that have recently visited that section of the State: In consequence of the recent heavy rains the roads through this section of the State are im paired to such an extent as renders it imposible to travel. The stage from this place to Ocala is discontinued, and we cannot approximate when it will resume its regular trips. The immense amount of water, falling in ens tades, has materially injured the crops. From ernando county we hear of some plantations being entirely ruined. In some places, the richest hammock lands, in a state of cultivation, have been covered with sand, from 12 to 15 inches in depth, washed from more elevated points; in others, the fields are submerged, crops lestroyed, and the fae of the country cut into ravines; many "sinks" have been caused, as it were by a convulsion of nature, which would teem to indicate that we are to be favored with improved facilities for taking a trip -* South" some of them being bottomless. In a word, he heretofore deplorable condition of our citi ens is now rendered almost intolerable-most of our farmers had abandoned their fields, and he few that had held out, despite the dangers which threatened them, were flattering them selves over their fair prospects ; but, alas! the lements seem to have united with the Semi oles in their conspiracy against the welfare of South Florida, and the only dependence of her itizens for sustenance is now rendered futile. We have had but one mail in two weeks, and ill, in all probability, have another in a month ur two. Interesting times, these! TuE WAR AGAINST WALEEt--A letter from San Jose, Costa Rica, says: "We have received here-that is to say, the President hos received-renewed a-surances, on he part of Guatemala, San Salvador and lion luras, that they will attack Walker in the North, while they press hint to make a strong diversion to the South. Their plan is to march upon Le an, where we are told that Rivas, the hitherto dupe of the American filibuster, has intrenched nmbelf, after throwing otF the dishonor.,ble yoke. There they will meet thae malcontents, and hence vigorously push the Walkerias from Granada to Rivas, when they hope to enclta.e them be. tween two fires,-as tbey pre~uma by that period the Costa Ricatns w ill ag..in have gained posses sion of that town; thus Walker woult easily e thrownt intu the waters of the lake, or di5 rsed throngh the forests, to die of starvation. ifnot under the knife." GETTING TIRED OF IT.-The Kansats corres ondent of the New York 7ribune makes the fllowing comnplainit of the backwardness of Ireesil and abolitionist movements in favor of Kansas. ~It is gratifying to notice, on the other ad, that Southern emigration to the Territory has hardly slackened : "It is a somewhat singular thing. that while the Northern States have been ringing with mon ys collected for Kansas, there is yet no means here to sustain any body of men for any length f time. But little money has been sent here for two or three months back. I have had sev eral companies to report themselves, and many in dividuals, as ready to take the field and march o open the Missouri river, to guard the entrance into the Territory by Nobraska, and to be ready o meet and repel any attack that aight be ade, or ontraige ; but these have been obliged o abandon snech anidea for w ant of means to keep a party of any size in the field." WAsHINGTON, July 26-One of the grandest schemes for stealing-bold, deliberate stealing was introduced into the House to-day, in the shape of a resolution for supplying books for members of Congress. You will doubtless remember several weeks ago a joint resolutiun w~s paissed by the H-ouse of Representatives, giving to the members of the House a large 1umber of honks of a public chiarniter, and it will be remembered also by the provisiona of that resolution, members could receive other books of their own selection, of those of a vail. ue regularly distributed. Now this resolution gives each member about fourteen huindred dol lars worth of books to be purchased, furnished and delivered by the Clerk of the Ilouse. Each member can receive if lie chooses-and whom doubts but that lhe will in lieut of the books. two thirds of that amount, fourteen hundred dollars in cash, by a slight maneuvering with the Clerk of the House. Therefore, by this resolution, they put into the hands of Cullomn, the present Clerk, upward of twenty-five thou sand dollars, and this too. by the Black Repub licans. This is the party that is desirous of getting into power for the purpose of reformitig the government and correcting abuses. Verily this is a good beginning. ARMtY WVoax.-We .have been reliably in formed that the Army Worm has made its lip. pearance in different portions of our district, and they are rapidly extending and sweepitig verything before them.

How the fire originated has not been'ascertained but is strongly sup posed to be the work of an incendiary." Rain, Hail and Lightning. Sunday afternoon last, there fell a prodigious rain upon parts of our district. In some localities, it was accompanied by hail and very severe lightning. The barn of Capt. E. Srrrr.E was struck and burned to the ground. We do not know the loss sustained. The Skinner Brand. Mr. Jout Sutrn, of Laurens, advertises flour for sale. From the sample-barrel he has sent us, we can safely pronounce it a superfinearticle. Friend Saru remarks with a good deal of truth, that the " Skinner floor Is hard to beat." -4 The Ball at Spartanburg. This great ball comes off on the 12th instant.

We thank our cou'ins of the Spartan for their care of us. Nothing would afford us more pleasure than to be pre sent on the joyous occasion of the Governor's Ball. But know ye, that we have an extra equity court for next week-yes, an equity court in the midst of the Dog-days Think of that, Tom Vernon; and pity while you excuse us. Something Choice. They have come at last. "Who? or what ?" The finest watermelon and a bucket of the most lascious peaches of the season. "And where did they come from ?" Where else than from our old friend's, Mr. SAMUEL MiAast's. Many thanks for the delicious present. It will be so acceptable to the l.dies and little ones at home. They'll bless you, SAx. Health of Edgefleld. Edgefield is perhaps as healthy as any District in South Carolina, take the year all 'round. Indeed there are many portions of it in which Doctors would perish if dependent entirely upon their professional earnings. True, certain diseases of a typhoid charac ter have prevailed here and there amongst us for a few years past ; these, however, occur as often in the very mountains themselves. They are, we believe, much on the decline. So far this season, the heal of our people would seem to be unusually good. 'I' keep it so, let us have a care how we indulge too freely in the varied fruits which crown the abun dant summer. A great fruit year is generally said to h.e a great fever year. We incline to the opinion, that with common prudence it ought to be the very healthtiest of all years. Hung in Efmgy. A correspondent tells us, and thinks it ought to be known, that CHanRLts SUMNER was hung in effigy the other day away down in the Piney Woods, belo~w Mt. Willing. The materials used were, in the Ian guage of our irnformant, "ani old dirty shirt sleeve, stufred with pine-straw, suspended by a hickory withe to a black lim'b, and hearing the inscription: " Hung in his$th here Summer sings, is The meanest and lowoest of hsnan things."

Wv. regret being unable to meet the wishes of our friends about old Pine Grove,-in thme matter of the ad dress which they have so kindly invited us to deliver.

Ouriimprseion, w3iuc is also thato.oone or two read ers of the Mercury with whom we have conversed, is, that our cotemporary did take ultra ground for the re I election of the present faithful Executive; so ultra as to seem to exclude every other aspirant from its thoughts. And this, according to our recollection of I the matter. continued to be its position up to the date of the Democratic nomination. Immediately upon the heels of that nomination, it is very certain that the Mercury fell into the Democratic ranks as one of the most energetic and ardent supporters of Mr. BucnlANANI. We say, there was about it the sem blance of inconsistency. It so occurred to ourself and others at the time. It so appears to us still. But we cliargeino failt upon our cotemporary. It was per fectly rigli.t to change Its cue at the very, moment it did ; bbdau'e any other course would have been "fiat, stale and unprofitable." Some have remarked that the rapidity with which the. Mercury turned the di rection of its fire is best accounted for by the facts, that one of its editors was at Cincinnati during the sitting of the Convention, that he felt and bowed be fore the tremendous outside pressure for the man who received the nomination, that he was himself, by birth, a Pennsylvanian, and was perhaps drawn to old Baca by feelings of ancient neighborhood; and all that sort of thing. But we believe the Mercury's course best explained by these facts: 1st, that It is a most sen sible and patriotic sheet, and 2nd, that true wisdom and patriotism dictated the support of the Cincinnati nomination to every enlightened and unprejudiced Southerner. The Mercury remarks that we are wrong in saying that it ever held, "that the State should meet -n Co lumbia to nominate PIERCE and no one else." We accept the correction and regret our misapprehension. In fact, the observation we penned, and to which the Mercury objects, was intended as a playful one, and was certainly indited currente calamo. It did not occur to us at the moment, as being any cause of pro vc'cation. And we ate sorry it was so regarded. But there is a supercillious tone in the article reply ing to us, which the Advertiser relishes as little as the Mercury does our thoughtless inuendo. "No higher ambition" than to carp at the Mercury ! We should he sorry to think that this were so in respect to our self. We have a just appreciation of that journal's merits and readily place it alongside of some dozen other papers in South Carolina, as being equal, but not superior, to any one of them. To imagine though, that we look up to it as to an eagle from whose wing it is a glory to pluck an occasional feather, is supreme. ly absurd. And to assume thnt we have no higher ambition than to pick flaws in the Mercury's mantle, only proves that the editor whlo framed the retort knows nothing of our reconi. To that record we ap peal with confidence, convinced that it will show, in the last four years, as much of independence, of indus try, of elevated tone and of consistency, as does the Mercury's during the same period. And in this re mark we are, surely, guilty of no especial vanity. TilE CANVASS. Tits canvass for the Legislature is becoming lively with us at last. Camp-meetings, musters and barbe - cites are on hand, at all of which the candidates are decidedly the most notable personages-unless we except the preachers, the captains and the ingun-sass makers. There is no particular issue before the peo ole, except, perhaps, the question of dividing the Dis trict. Some of our candidates favor this measure of policy, while others do not. Whether it will be made the test iguestion at the ballot-hbox, we cainnot ay; because we do not know. If, however, it he made so Sin one part of the District, it ought to be everywhere; -so that we may arrive at some idea of the real wishes of the people on thsa subject. ORATION EXTRAORDINARY.

B. J. BOYD, P. E. II. T. inIWrIT, Secretary. Mount Vernon, August 1st, 1856. For the Advertiser. TO "RICHABD." Sti: The atrocious crime of being the originator of the Division movement in Edgefield District, which you have charged me with, I shall neither it tempt to palliate nor deny; but shall merely state, that sometime during the year '52. through the so licitations of some of our best citizens, and in accor dance with my own feelings, I did agitate the ques tion of Division, a thing which I have never re gretted having done since; and to-day, sir, did I really believe I occupied that position in my District, and especially among my divisian friends, in which you ironically place me, I should be proud of it. But, sir, I treat your irony with that degree of pity and contempt which it deserves. Yes, sir. 1 sin cerely pity the man who can flatter or be flattered ; and I pity him still more if his chief incentive to action in this world is, to give a degree of that mushroom popularity which is often gained without merit and lost without a crime. The man whose little soul can be changed again and again to suit surrounding circumstances like the lizard, to give his fiendish point, deserves only to be ranked with a Judas or an Arnold. But, sir, I will reciprocate: "keep cod, my friend, I must talk to you a little." It is magnanimous in you to censure my friends in your address to me of being deceptive, without pro ducing any evidence of the fact. Are you so un acquainted with real friendship as not to know that I had much rather you had spoken against me than my friend,, who have stood arm to arm, and shoul der to shoulder with me, in the conflict to obtain our rights? You are certainly a stranger in these parts, just from Ireland, where the affections are said to be cold as well as the weather. The Divi sion party is the most friendly party I have ever seen. The Methodist, the Baptist, the Ma ons, and all other orders and sects seem to be swallowed up in this one party. And it is getting to be a strong party too, and we think, ere long, it will predomi nate over Edgefield District. The very men of the Division party, whom you would censure, arc the ten who think, speak, and act for the peop!c, and who will not crawl at the feet of the aristocracy of the District or of the State, and the people will sustain them. But, " Rucnann," I am afraid you are one of those men that want to make capital of the ruins of others, or, it may be, that you are a candidate, or intend to be a candidate, and arc sensible of your defects, and that you are without any real merit of your own ; and that your only chance to raise yourself, will be to ruin others that are far :head of you. If this is really the case, and you are a young man, let me admionish you, as a father, to do as Demosthenes did :" shave the hair off or one half of your head at 'east, and go into rietirement. and study hard and think much," until you may be in a cotndition to rise to public notice on your own real merits. No man ever has, or ever will, sustain an elevated posititon in society long at a time, wvho la been ra'sed without real worth, and whose only char~ ce for promotion is to* misrepresent others and traduce their ehntracters. There is no character mordemoniacal than that of the slanderer...he thief who steals your property is not to be dreaded as the vile slanderer who slantders'yeur character. Bunt, " RczutD," I feel that I am accountable for my conduct, as well as you, and, next to God, I hold myself amuenable to the peopile of this District for the part I have ta-ken in the Division project The man who could watntonly dsturb the peace of society, without any real cause or prospect of bet tering the condition of the people, deserves to be excluded from tat society, rather thtan be placed in that high position in which you iro~nically place ine. Now, most excellent " RICnano," I feel myselt hinppy, because I shall answer before you this day. to the people of the Distriet, for all the things where of I am accused of the anti-divisionist. In the first place, I veriiy thought, and still think, that Edgefield is too large for any one District, and too large to suit the absolute necessities of the people, manuy of them having to travel a distance of from thirty to forty miles to tihe Court Ilouse, and to pay the most extravagant bills whiist there for boardling. Besides the fatigue, this is a severe tax cii the people, and ery burthensomne, especially on the poor, ninny oh wom are compelled to serve as witnesses, for the State, two weeks at a time, Court after Court, and thn a call Court, with'.tit any pamy ; and at the samie time they are hardly able to keep bread for their chiildren at home to eat. Ihundreas and thou sands of do'lars are paid out annually by the people of this District, that might be saved, was the Dis trict not miore than half so large as it is-eniouahm perhaps to build a Court Ihmouse in one y-ear. But, sir, the people can have but little etnjioyinent at their Courts, and, consequently, lose all the informiation that is to be gained at them. It would be useless for me to argue the point in this reply ; every one knows very well, that Edgeielud ought to be divided. I am, a D)ivisionist, because justice, necessity, and benvolenc'e, a'l uniite ini the projiect, atnd there can be no reasotnable objectioni to it. I am a Divisionist, because our rigihts, nithmler in a judicial nor politi cal point. are appreciated as int other Districts. I am a Divisionist, because other Districts have been accommdaltted in this matter, and we have as good a right as they have, our District beinig the largest, except one, in the State. I amn a Divisonist, if we ever get a divisoni, b. cause it is our right, aund the mnn who c~m su!l'er his t ights taken away from him u'r trampllled upon with impunity, without an effbrt to secure thtem, is a slave. I fully conicur with tlie poet, ho says: ." If naught but purpose in thy power is, Thy purpose firm, is equal to the deed." I have thus given my reasons for being a Divis ionist, in a brcef manner. I am before the people, but not a candidate for any oficee within the gift of the people. I am with the Division party heart and soul, but feel myself inferior to many in that party, in point of physical, intellectual and scientific abili ties. If it were not for my bal health, Edgefield District would bo tou small for me ; I would attend our Legislature and importune, beg, and entreat for our rights. The very name of Big Saluda brings along with it something gratnd and imposing, and inspires us with hopes that it is destined to be a great place. We are now buih'ling a Church near the spot where the immortal Bumtit reposes, who has been neglected by the District and the State; and ere long, we expect to build a Court h-louse that shall bea' the nnie of our hero, who won for him self and his State immortal honior, and whto, though wounded and imniaciated with disease, fell before his men, leading them to the charge at the battle of Churubuseo. Saludians will be at their post in all cases of emergencl. Our standard is raised, our banner unfurled, a few more rounds and Jerico will fall. JOS EPR GRIFFITII. COL. Bouls' ELECTIo.-We observe in the Washingon Star a statement that Col. Brooks hd six v-otea agaitnst him. This is a mistake. A single vote in Newberry was blantk, and is supposed tc have been given by a fifth cousin fa t.eMnr1 of Runnr',.-Carlinian. THE BAPTIST 00NTEN1f0%.. This body astsiembled itt GieedtIlIed ast 3 . urday, and oar town has been filled 'with the 'distinguished clergymen of that denomination for several days past. Sunday morning, Pro fessor Forman preached the Commencemenit det-' men, in the'new Court House. it wad a beans tiful and appropriate discourse on the tpoyal re. sponaibility of man. The' young men of the University may. well profit by what their Prb - fessor said on that occasion. The style of the discourse, we thought most chaste and finished. In the evening, Rev. Mr. Manley, former-Presi dent of the Alabama University, preached a missionary sermon before the Young Men's Missionary Society, in the new Court House. There was an immense concourse of persons present, and many had to go off, .who.conldao get seats or room to stand in I The sermon - was over an hour and a.half long, and was lis tened to with breathless interest. It was truly a noble and learned discourse, and hadthetinore effect, coming, as it did, from so venerable a man in appearance and character. We admired' the sentiments expressed on the subject of mis sions very much. He said that. we had aiwide. field for missions at home, in these United St4es, . and it should be first occapied. ..We should nm step over a brother to. carry the gospel tola stranger. In regard to our duty to foreigners, who were coming to our shores to seek religious and civil liberty, his remarks were peculiarly f.'ut. and felicitous. They contrasted nobly with the narrow, unjust, unchristian, unpatriotic and in hospitable sentiments of Know Nothingism. At night we attended the Methodist Church,' which was, together with the Presbyterian Church, thrown open to the Baptist ministers, and heard a very brilliant discourse from 'Mr. Kendriek. on the evils of sin. This gentleman is regarded as one of the first B'aptist preachers - in the State, and has charge of a church in Char= lesten. We were greatly pleased with hisser mon. It was eloquent, brilliant, and his figures' and illustrations were peculiarly happy and touching. In regard to the new Court House, in which : we heard two sermons, on Sunday, we can say, we were never in a building of that size where sound seemed to be conveyed so distinctly. We took our seat purposely in the extreme end' of the building, and heard every word that was said, in the mild calm tone of Professor Furman. -Greenville Patriot and Mountaineer. TEMPER ANCE CELEBR'ATIoN.-TheO Grand Di vision of the Sons of Temperance of South Carolina, held their third Quarterly Meeting'at' - Greenwood in this District, on Wednesday and Thursday last. Prof. Carlisle, of Wofford Col.' lege, Rev. H. H. Durant, of this place, W.. B.. Carlisle, of Charleston, and Judge O'Neall, were.. the speakers upon the occasion. The speech of Protf Carlisle was a masterly effort in behalf of Temperance, and was listened 'to with the deep est interest by the large assembly. 'He is com paratively a young man but unquestionably one of the brightest intellects tf the State, and des tined to shine with no ordinary splendor in her galaxy of great men. The dinner prepared for the occasion, was :lso something superlatively fine, and quite in keeping with the hospitality of the people. Greenwood never fails in what she' iittem'pts ' The festivities were to close with a supper, but we could not stay to partake of that,. as busl ness called us away.-Abbeville Banner. A DUEL.-The correspondence in relation to a late meeting between the editor of the Eve ning News, John Cunningham, esq., and the act ing editor of the Standard, J. L. Hatch, esq., is published in the Charleston papers. The tollowing is the termination of the afilir: The parties met on the afternoon of the 28th. A fler an exchange of shots, without injur-y to. either party, Mr. Taber, on the part of Colonel. Cnninghami, repeated his demand for retractiot. which i'1r. Lord, ona the part of Mr. Hatcht, re fused, but tendered the following proposition, which was accepted by Mr. Taber: " Mr. Hateh reiterates that his article was re sponsive to Col. Cunningham's article, immnedi ately preceding. it, ia hieh he considered personal ly insulting to .bimself. If Col. Cunningham will diselaim any .istention: pe-uhytu .\r. Hatch by that article, Mr. Hitch, aitua-' neously with this statement,' consents to the' withdrawal of both articles." ' ' Whereupon the affair terminated. CosT or oURt ARjY.-The Army Appropria. tion bill, now before Congress requires for the suppor,. of the army for the year ending the 30th day of June, 1857, no less than 612,124, :197.57. Add to this about a million and a half more embraced in the deficiency bill passed not long since, and the aggregate expense attending the maintenan~ce of our army for Lu elye months is nearly fourteen millions of dollars. Some of the items may be interestinZ. Pay of the army, $3.275,170; subsistence, $1.989.834; Quarter m:ast ers supplies, $1,010,000; transportation, .Si,500,000; commutation of ofhicers' subsis tetice, $661.967; clothing, $624,833 57; eon structinsg b:,rracks, &c., $500,000. The proba bility is thatt sonme of these sums may be very materially lessented, but it is not likely that, the aggregate will be reduced below ten millions of dollars. '-WES'rPHEtA IIAM.-flarry and Patton, of San Frantcisco, the proprietors of a celebrated saloon in that city, recenttly had a piece of petri lied woo~d presented to them which exactly re s-mled n ham. Martin, their waggish assistant, had it l::id in a disht, on a clean npkin ; and be side it were l:id at carver and fork, a pot of inns tard ; and a plate of br'end. Col. Joe West shortly after came in. and at once proceeded to cut a lunch off for himaself; but he could make no impression. " Martin," said he, " what sort oif a ham do you call this?" " That," said Mar tin, "is a West failure, (WVestphalia.") The Colonel asked all hands up, and acknowledged the sell." W. D. POR TE R,in the New York Herald, points out a new way to discover murderers. He says: The following method will, in many cases, de tect the perpetrators, of a murder: It is well known that all objects are actually painted or, impressed otn the retina of the eye. Should a person die by a violent death, the object before the eye, at the time, remains impressed on the retina. If the covering of the eye is scraped down thin, and a powerful magnifying glass applied, this imnge will be distinctly seen. This was the first discovery of the daguerreotype. Any scientific physician can do this. GREEN CoRN ()MELET.-The following re ceipt for this seasonable delicacy is said to be excellent: Grate the corn from twelve ears of corn boiled, bent up five eggs, stir them with the corn, season with pepper and salt, and fry' the mixture brown, browning the top with a hot shovel. If fried in small cakes, with a little flour and milk stirred in to form a batter, this is very nice. THlE FRasT BALE op CoT~ro.--The Savannah Georgian, of Friday afternoon, 1st inst., says: " Messrs Hunter & Gummnell have to-day -re..' ceived from Messrs. Hughes & Daniel, of Co Iumbus, Ga., a bale of new Cotton. raised on the plantation of Mrs. A. E. Shephard. Stewart county, Ga.-.-elassing middling fair, and sold to F. R. Shackelford at 134 cents. .
