-Lord Palmerston, without consulting the Queen,
tappoinated Rev. Mr. TIrench, the authoar of a
book of poeius and translations from Calderon,
to the Bishopric of Durhattm, but the Qiuen, ont
reading the :appointment in the papers, sent for

by the aide of the Judges og thir way to tho

assault. The purity olf .the gappine is the best
protection. And as long its these p)#eers dis
charge their -duties with htonest jimpartiatity,
they are certain to be surrounded with a patteply
that will shield from all mahow of violence, and
prove far more efficient than the banbios worn
by a Sheriff.-Carolinia Spartan.

MR. BIGGS' SOIREE.
A large and fashionable assemblage came together
last Thursday evening at Ma. BioGs' first Soiree; and
we are sure every one went away gratified after a few
hours of pleasant enjoyment. The skill of Ma. B's
pupils was exhibited in every dance, and great was
the delight of the spectators while the gay and well
attired youngsters whirled through the mazes of the
Quadrille, the Waltz, and the Schottische. The
performance of the young Miss who danced the
11Bighland Fling," Is above praise, and elicted the
warm and involuntary plaudits of the whole assem
blage.
M. IGaS is a proficient in his art, and young peo
ple who wish to acquire the poetry of motion, ease
and grace of action, would do well to place them
selves under his instruction. AIR. B. will commence
his second course in this Village this afternoon at 21
o'clock. He wi:1, doubtless have another large class.

Our junior publisher desires J. M. N. & Co., to ac

WAVERLY MAGAZINE.
A rich number of this elegant Weekly is before us.
It is a feast of reason and a flow of sentiment. Per

world. We have not read it often ; but judigingt by
the 'present number, we should set it down as one of
those northern publications at all times acceptable to
southern as well as northern readers. It appears as
free fromn sectional bigotry as it is full of taste and ta

SOUTHERN AGRICULTURIST.
The last number comes laden wm itho a wagon load of
useful original articles, and selections. it is a double
issue in every sense of the phrase.
THE STRUGGLE OVER.
As every hopeful soul has been fully anticipating
ever since the adjournment of~ the Cincinnati Conven
tion, the Democratic Nominees for the Presidency and
Vice-Presidency of the United States have been elec
ted in spite of all possible opposition. Frtom one end
othe Union to thme other, the power of Earth anti
Ihell were ihvuked to inaugurate a period of mis--rule
aid revolution. But that Providence which brought
us into existence as a people, decreed that the lime
was not yet crime for the iriumph of Anarchy 'over
Order, of Error over Truth, of Wrong over Right, ina
this fairest portion of Iis creation. He lbasseen g~ood
in His wisdom to bring to nouight the heathermsh rage
of factions, and to disappointment the vain imagiosinng'
uf-delued leaders. Over the roar of tihe troubled wa
ters, lhe has vouchsafed once more the olive-leaf c.f
Hope and the rainbow of Promise.
I is' indeed a season of rejoicing and of tharnksgiv
ing. it is a timte whecn patriuts from every part of our
wvid coiuntry may wvell mingle their congratlaotinns
at a common altar. It is an occasion eminently cal
colatedi to induce an increased affiliation amongt
virtuous of all parties. The Ship that was supposed
yesterday to be rushing uppun tihe breakere, is to-clay
proudly and calmly riding upon thme bosom uofan open
sea. Thme tmutineen', who yesterday threatened to
despoil and dim'mast her, are tciday *ent adrift upon
the platforms of their own making. never again (it is
'oped) to climb that gallant vessel's bide. And no"
that shoe is once more righted and breojgt.ing tihe ' rol
lers ' upon her proper course, let a boo-fire he prepared
upon hoer deck of all the prejudices and passions that
have endangered her existence; of all the absurdities
that have tdistracted her cotnusels; of all the 'isoms '
that have becloudedi the better intelligence of her
crew ; of all thme animosities that have embittered their
cotmminion. Let tihe stnoke of the sacrmmfice pass
avay, and leave above us tihe clear sky of a bright
and brghtening day. So shail the evil of the past be
mnade instrumental in securing the good of thme future
South Carolina uuiires in the " lo Triumphme" of
this victortous hour. Her seventy five thouosand votes
have been cast as a unit for 'tme powers that be.'
Early inl the struggle that has so happily closed, she
assumed her position alongside her compatriots of tihe
Detoratic line. With the rest of the South, her bum
gle-notes rung out clearly and promptly for Buchanan
and Ref:m. With them, slhe now rejoices at thme re
sult; and, waiving all useless professions, she is now
ready and prepared to act with them zealously in im
rovig that result to time salvation at once of our
ommon rights and our common country.
But there are, as must always be the case, discon
sted mnds here and there, Wha n:an find little or
nothing to gladden them in the premises. fjf these we
would ask:t Is it nothing to arry the prippiples of th~e
democratic party into power? a parry which, grhile
declaredly cnnrservative of the Union, is unequivocal.
yy pledged to maintain the full rights of our section
under the Constituton-under the Constitution too as
we ourselves read and understand it? iIs it nothing
that the administration elect should have owed its
peeto the South? that it must lean upon thme
Soquh .ftr pia syf~port i th at it is mainly oy thme force of
suthmen ,atriotls, igy )ie 'morale' of Southern
mnanimity, it can hope to give irill apey to ins pro

The course of the South is clear. It is, to stand by
e government as long ae it remains the bulwark o
n Congress and before the Country, for the full recog
ition of her rights in the Confederacy, and for the.
-morilete and unobstructed enjoyment of those rights. In
zhe has the vantage ground. Power aid Justice are C
th on her side. And with Wisdom in her councils,
we must believe that "the day of her redemption PC
lraweth nigh."
THE STATE FAIR.
It was our gnd rnrtune to be able to spendi a day or .
wo in Cnlrumbla during the week of the late State
Fair. Without a note for reference before irs, for we -
aere tno much engaged to take one. it will not he ex
seted that we shall be either full or explicit (as the
lhrase roes) in telling about it.
The crnwd in attendance was admitted on all hands
to be the largest ever brought together in Columbia.
The Hotels were over-crammed. some private houses
were filled. and still many an unlucky wight. carpet
hat in hand. was left to wander about the street* like
a lost spirit seeking whose bread and meat he might
ievnur. Eventually tho'ngh. wea believe all were
ruartered in one place nr another. On Tuesday the
lth. seven hundred bodies with souls were emptied
out of the Greenville cars alone. and nearly four hnn
dred from the Charlotte cars. Th-other roads poured
in their quntat, while not a few (like ourself) arrived
by land. All together, we (viz: the crowd) were a
'hueter.'
Tns.1av night, the Associatinn convened in the old
Hall of Representatives and soon filled the room. The
President, Col. A. P. CALtHOUN of Pendleton. opened
the meeting with an address upnn the suhject.matter
of the necasinn. Agricliure. It was an admirable
production in every sense.-practical and at the same
time enmaine. sensible and at the same time ornate,
full of detail and at the same time eloquent.. It oecu
pied considerably over an hour in its delivery, and the
whole andience seemed to grow more and more inter
ested to Its very close. The speaker was interrupted
by frequent bursts of applause. especlally dsuring the
latter part of his address, when the high thoughts of
a swelling patriotism lent their colojags to his chaste
diction and impressive manner. At his con usion,
the lond plaudits of the assembly were followe l by
general murmur of satisfactinn and pleasure among
the members of the Society. The political cast of
an occasional remark did not appeitr to many of his
hearers precisely cnmpatible with the circumstances
of the S--uth's present posture. But these were unob
jeeted to. promapted as they were by the convictions of
a high-toned spirit. We trust, and take for granted,
that Col. CAMtouN'S address will he printed.
Some matter-of-course business was transacted af
ter the President was through, and the Association ad
journed to meet the next evening for the purpose of
hearing the Annual Oration by Gen. .lAursoN. We
regret not having heen able to hear this Oration. On
all sides it is spoken of as worthy its distinguished
author, and we shall endeavor to lay it before our
readers when it reaches us.
We. were not present at the Fair on Tuesday; in
deed matters were not entirely arranged there before
the evening of that day. On Wednesday forennon,
tie multifarions company began to assemble on the
groutds with a rapidity n hich showed the eagerness
of all to see whatever was to he seen. By mid-day,
they might be numbered by thoustands, passing this
way and that-from this department to the other
first among the ladirs' quilts, then gazing on shaggy
goats-now revelling among fruits and flowers, then
scanning the merits of jacks and jennets--thip moment
listening to the stiains of the German hand, anon to
the crowing of Shanghai roosters-one minui admi
ring beautiful specimens of painting and sculpture, the
next examining sundry improved plow-stocks. In
short, what with darting from this place to.that, and
that, and the other; what with cows and bulls and ot
toman patterns and bees, elks and pheasants and can
dypalaces and hogs, patch-~wotk (an immense assort
ment) and wax-flowers and woolen domestics and vege
tables, buggies and carriages atnd pianos and water.
proof boots, and a great many other things of every
grade, the big Fair day of' Wednesday was a melo
dramatic panorama such as is niot often presented to
the optics of the passing~ generr~tlon, and would have
made our grand-daddies take to their beels ina confut
tertaining, pleasintg and varied, if not a surprising ex
hibition ; and all went away delighted. Fur furthter
particulars, see small bills or the South Carolina Ag
riculurist. (And, by the way, all who wish to keep
up with the agricultural times in our State, should
make haste and subscribe to the Agriculturist. Be
aides being a State journal, it is already becoming the
medium of valuable articles on Carolina farming, and
will soon, we hope, take its place in the very front
rankof such publicatiuns in our country.)
Edgefield, it grieves us to say, was by no means ftul
ly represented im the Fair. 3lsj. T. G. Bauont had a
small portion of Ihis stock thterc, and Capt. Rt. WVaaD
and one or~awo others a few specimens of cattle ; and
moreover illrj. Baconr torok a premium for the best
stallioni ; beside. this, there was nothing that we cant
now think of. Never mind-we'll do better next time.
With the Fair grounds and Fair arrangements every
one was compjletely taken. They were gotten up oni
a scale of litberality atid permatnency in the highest
degree creditable tio the city of Columbia. Th'lat city
deerves wvell of the State fur n hat she has do~ne ini
this matter ; and we trust that the increased success
of our future Fairs will showv that the peopJe of the
State properly anppreciate her munificence.
Much more enight we say ; but this must suffice.

Who loves you so wildly that nought can be

Careless and heartless, is passing along;

With joyous laughter's welcome sound;
In silence, dear love, alone, in prayer,

HoG SEASON AT ST. Louis-The first trans.
iction at St. Louis this season in hogs took
place on the 28th uhimo. There was a s:le of
)ne thousand head of good corn-red, averaging
wo hundred pounds each in weight for January
lelivery,and the seller to pack at $5 per one
undred pounds. Packers state that they are
willing to pay the same for other lots daring
the month of December. This sale (says the
St. Louis Democrat) is somewhat below the an
icipations of many, and cannot fairly be con.
sidered the legitimate opening price. Hogs are
plenty in the West, but the farmers are reported
as entertaininglarge and independont views in
regard to the price which their pork shall bring
them. The profits of last season and good crops
have made them saucy.
MENDING BROKEN CHuNA.-The following old
receipt for mending China is said-to answer ad.
mirably. " Take a very thick solution, of gum
arabic in water, and stir it into plaster of Paris
until the mixture becomes as vi-cuus paste.
Apply it with a brush to the fractured edges,
and stick them together. In three days the ar.
tiele cannot again be broken in the same place.

BLISS DYSPEPTIC REMEDY." Foih benelft.
of all whom it may concern, I will answer tlese gos.,
tions. To the first question. I answer-Eat anything
that is good, wholesome-, substantial, and nourishing.
To the second question, I answer-Eat as muchas
you are accustomed to eat, or whatever would be
considered a sufficiency by the generality of b'ealthy
people. To the third question, I answer-No, for If
you do, you never will get well. No.dyspeptic, or
any other person laboring under chronic disease, ever
got rid of lhis disease, or ever will by starvin ghiself.
To question four, I answer-No, for meat s a most
important article of diet to the invalid dyspeptic. To
question five, I answer-No, if you are accustomed to
rinking it! the question as to wihether tea and cofibe
are injutious is all moonshine.
Such advice as the above to adyspeptic and to per
sons laboring under chronic diseases generally; will
no doubt be read and regarded by a great many with
surprise ; and I am greatly mistaken if the above is
not pointed at by many sagacious and wise heads, Is
proofs either that Iknow nothing of the diseases which
I pretend to treat, or that it is some new phase in the
humbug line. But, hold on a bit, all you that think
so-throw the old fogy aside for a moment, and let ts
see about this matter. Wewon't stop to I nuire how
you came by your dyspepsia, but we wi enquire-. -
why is it that you have not got well of itlung a I
Why is it that it sticks to you, tormenting you so-t.
you are no manner of account I Simply because the
powers of the system are unabis to throw off tfie di- -
sease-because the system has, from some reason be.
come too much enfeebled-too much reduced in vital
force-too much in a weakened state ;- or that the ex
tent, severity or stronghold that the disease has gotis
too great for the via metucatriz naturse-the powers
of the system to remove. This is the reason, and-the
only reason, that you are not well. Well,. how are
you to be cured ! By rursuing such a course of treat'.
ment as shall help out the via mecutatrix hatnrae
the powers of the system-by institting a treatment
that will bind up, strengthen, give tone, and vigor,.
and lend a helping hand to the entire general system,
by which she may be enabled to trow ojthisdwsease,
a-4 for instance regular out of door exercise, cold bath
ing. travelling,-change of scene &c., and the takin of
medicinal agents. Why is medicine taken! Simply
to assist nature to throw off disease, and nothing else.
Medicine has not on.! particle of influence on disease,
not one particle. Medicine dont cure diseates, it only
assist% nature ts throw it off. Now comes the ques
tion; while we are doing every thing in our powertO
bind up and strengthen the general powers of the sys
tem, that she may be enabled to tirow off this disease,
shall we at the same time deny-her her natural stimu
las, her natural strengthener! shall we withhold that
by which she is nourished and supported. viz:-food,
good, wholesome and substantial food! Bynomeans,
for if we do, we are bringing about the very same
state of system that we are trying to get rid of, by
withholding food we reduce and weaken the system.
The taking of good and substantial food Is as essential
as any portion of the treatment that we institute, it
fact, very much more so, for the food is the natural
strengthener of the powers of the system, and from it
good. rick and healthy blood is made.
All this, we grant, says my sagacious friendbU
continues he, what's the use of a person if his stomach
is in an tnfit state to receive and digest that food atd
prepare it for the system; and besides, says he, there..
are hundreds and thousands that cannot take much -
food upon the stomach, in consequence of the-great
ulistress it causes. Now this isa very important ques.
tion, and a very true remark. There would be but
little use in taking this-good, wholesome and substan
tial food unless the stomach coul4 receive and.digest
it, and too, without pain and distress; and that the
stomach may receive and digest the food, and-with-.
out pain, recourse must be had to medicinal agents.
By these, if a judicious choice is made among the
remedial agents, the stomach may he enabled to per.
form its functions-.may be enabled to receive and di
gest t-:e food, and too withotit pain or di'tress. Now
comes the question-what remedial agent shall we
use? Shall we use calomel? No! because in its
action it stimulates the mucus membrane of-the stom
ach and bowels, which are already in an oser excited
and inflamed state. Shall we use iron or any of its -
kindred preparations! No! for the same rcason.- -
They would not only stimulate the already over exci
ted mucus membrane of the stomach but render it still
Ifurther unable to prepare those preparations for their
admissiron into the system, so if their presence in the
Istotnacht did no harm, they could not possibly do any
good, from the fact of their not being taken into the
ticirculation. - -
IShall we tise any'of the many "specifies " that are
*now-a-days .placed before the people -as "sovereign t
remedies !" No! fur nine tenths of them are pre
-ared with alcohol, o~oe othter eulystimulating
Ju to an inflamed mucus membrane of the stomach
th~an algohol or any of its preparat ions.
What remedial agent shall we use ther ? This is
a question itat I asked for years. I tried over and
over agatin all thte remedies and prescriptions found in
the books, bitt all to little or no purpose, until, at last,
aidedi by experiments almost without number, I com
.potunded a remedy, whicht, although very simple,.yet
I I funnd ajways most effectual when my directions
were complied with. This preparatioin I have used
in cases of every description o'f dyspepsia, and other
diseases having their origin in disease of the stomach,
for the last ten years in my private practice, and am
new prescribing it daily, by letter, to patients In every
seetion of the United States, who have placed their
case under my special care and treatment.
My legitimate business is the treatment and pre
scribing byletter, for chronic diseases generally, and
nine tenth of the caseR I prescribe for arc either dys
pepsin or some oilier disease having its origin in di
sease of the stomach. (Andi by the by I will here take
occa'ion t drop the hint that some of my friends f'r
