AGRICULTURAL SHOW.
The show of Saturday last was a capital one under
the circumstafnces. Every one was delighted w'ith
the harmonious and cheerful manner in which the day
went off. The universal remark was-" well this is a
good one, but next year we must have a great one."
And so let us du. By beginning in time, each one can
be able to contribute handsomely in October next. If
we have done so well without trying, what may we
nct do with proper exertion.
THE CIRCUS.
It will be lacre to-day, and a grand affair it is said
to be. Old RoaIEaTsoN hasquitthe concern, ELDIED
now owns the whole establishment. It will be none
the worse for this. Revolutions are always healthful
and improving with shows, however dangerous they
may be with governments. And, independent of all
suppositions, we have heard that ELDRED'S Circus is
a great Circus. Of course, everybody will be there.
We already hear that splendid Band as they make the
Grand Entree. Turn out, turn out!
L'P The well-prepared article from ADREw H.
H1. DAwsoN, Esq., of Savannah, written by him for
the Louisville Journal, in the defence of the Hon. P.
S. BaooKs, in the SUMtNER affitir, has been received
by us with the request that we will publish, which we
will take pleasure in laying before our readers at an
early date, as we know it will prove highly interesting
and acceptable to them.
OUR COURT AGAIN.
In a short note addressed to us by his Honor Judga
O'NEALL, the following allusion is made to our late
Court: " Much of my success in clearing your dock
ets and closing your Court is attributable to the active
co-operation of the Bar. I have never done more
business in the same time, and never did it more
pleasantly."
FINE WEATHER.
The finest autumn weather is upon us, conl, clear
and bracing. The health of the people is good and
their spirits high. Oh, how grateful we ought to be
for the blessings of the hour!
THE PLAY : THE PLAY!
Friday night a week is the time of our next Dra
matic Performance. The bill will be in the next pa
per. It is a full and a reh one. A Highland Fliag,
by Mr. BGGS, will be one of the features of the eve
ning. It will of itself be worth the price of admis
sion. Several songs will be introduced as part of the
plays. The Angusta string hand will be here also.
And, all together, it will be a rare evening.
LALLERSTETT & DEMIING.

THE GOLD MINES.
A friend writing to us from DoaN's Gold Mine,
kindly furnishes us with the following intelligence in
relation to the richness and constanatly increasing value
of these mines. Read it:
The gold mining interest in thmis neighmborhood has
already become a most important source of wealth to
our State, and may yet become of vast conhoguence.
The fanmous Dorni Mine, so immensely productive a
-few years ago, is again producIng very rich ore in large
lanne frty feet ,wawr level. The fact that time
,ein cotiriues liat water level' and increases inm rmchm

on by all experienced miner. and geologists in this re

largely to the inacrease of this, best of all currency

For thre Advertiser.
Onr Wednesda~y last, after the election was de

Edgeiield District wa land. On motion of Mr. E.
W. SvrEzE.s, Mr. DIroMED lloLtI~osworrr was

NEW kOlK, Oct. 13.-The usual Saturday
and Sunday record ef crime rind ertlamity is pre.
seted by our police returns to.dray. Twvo sur
ides on Saturday, two or tbree murders, sei eral
robberien, arnd tihe following peculiar ease,
which, though occurring otn 'Tursday nigh t, on
ey came to light on Satuirday. A laborer named
Edwrd Cutn. got into a row near Southr Ferry,
during wich he received a blow on tihe neck
whichr, it is said, forced it out of joint, arid in
which position it has since remained. An at
tept has been made to set it, as in Iris present
condition lire man cannot long survive. If tire
circumstance of disjointinrg his neck is literally
true the only wonder is he is not already dead !
THE Kansas ELEcTIoN.-The Uniton leatrrs
from a gentleman who was in Kansas at tire
election, arid who reached Washington on Moti
dary, that lihe elections went off quietly, rind that
Governor Geary had made every necessary ar
ragement to secure to every voter tire unmo
lested exerciee of this privilege. Tire anti-sla
very votEli, however, declined to avail- them
selves of thecir rights, and allowed their oppo
nents to carry the electron withfout a contest.
General Whritefield was voted for Congress by
the pro.slavery party and is elected.
MoIIIE, Oct. 16.-Chancellor J. WV. Lesresne,
and sn, were drowned yesterday-Wednesday
morniog by the capsizing of the yacht Vesper,
in which they weregoing across the bay, from
thi city to i seucean
HON. P. S. BROOS AT aWnERRY.
Our town (savs the Newberry Mirror) was
cheered on Friday by a visit from our distin
guished Representative. -We are pleased to
find him looking so fine after trying scenes of
the past summer. No representative was ever
more loved than Colonel Brooks. Being loudly
called for, at night, lie appeared and addressed
the assembly on the political prospects of the
day. Though we once differed with Col. Brooks,
we cnn subscribe to the sentiments expressed
on Friday night. The following is a meagre
outline of his remarks. During the address he
was frequently interrupted by the cheers of the
large and intelligent assembly:
le remnaiked that although he had not entire
confidence in the Democratic Party upon many
questionis of national policy, for instance the
tariff and internal improvements, yet it was now
frighting our enemies on the question most vital
to us, and bravely battling for the constitution,
and he should give a cordial support to Mr.
Buchanan as the standard bearer of the party.
He was so constrained:
ist. By nece.sity. -Mr. Fillmore was more
dangerous to the South than Fremont, because
lie was more moderate. Col. B. could not vote
for Frewont for he was a traitor to every asso.
iation of his youthkand no such man was to be
trusted in anj relation of life. Freniont's in.
heritance fron his parents was disgrace-his
legacy to his children will be infamy.
2d. The fate of the Northern Democrats who
relieved the South from the degradation of the
Missouri Restrictive line was to be determined
by the success of tie Democratic party. If Buch.
anan was defeated, such men as Pierce, Douglas,
Toucy, &c., would be doomed to a political
death which would know no resurrection. Grati
tude for pa-t services to these gentlemen also
influenced him.
3d. The people of the South require that this
last experiment should be made, this last hope
exhausted of killing off freesoilism by the elee.
tion of a Democrat, and it was our duty to test
the experiment as well as our policy, fur if it
ftils we might then reasonably ask our friends
to try our remedy.
It was wise to be prepared for any contingen
cy. Should Fremont be elected President the
South would not submit. Something would be
done. What, he did not know, but it was the
revailing sentiment at the South that submis
sion would be ruin. Plans had been suggested
but Col. B. had but little faith in Conventions
or Legislatures doing anything decisive or effee
tive. There was too much deliberation about
deliberative bodies for revolutionary tinies. An
overt act was wanted and the spirited young
patriots of the South must open the ball by
throwing " tea overboard." Our people are al
ways prepared, but we musL await the moving
of 'the water among those who are embarked in
tie satme voyage with ourselves and whose des
tiny is oure.

in which the following language is used:
" Determinied to afford you no apology for

mand the satisfaction which gentleumen are al

ground upon which thme challenge is made; de
nies hatvinig influenced his son in seekiing a con
