OUR JANUARY SAtE-DAY.
A large crowd of the solid men of Edgefield were
in attendance at our Court llouse'on Monday last
A more bisy, earnist, stirring throng has seldom
baen seei upon our public square. Of course
money, money, money was the great motive power
of the oceasion. And we are glad to learn that it
. flew about briskly from hand to hand. Every one
who could pay %as willing and anxious to do so;.
-and those who could not evinced unmistakeable in
tentions. to pay as soon as they possibly could. It
was a considerable day with onr merchants, our
l awyers, our tradesmen, our Court offieials .and our
hotelikeepers. It was no bad time either for our
shirpers and.note-shavers. Their .eycs glistened
*with occasional chances at fifteen per cent loans.
Is a great dea of money adloat among our people ;
* and if no false alarm Is gotten up, if no panic is
mnanufactured by our money-dealers itnd bank
ag'ents for purposes of greedy gain, debts will be
rapidly cancelled, credit will remain un-haken and
prosperity will mark the good year into which we
have just launched. Return-day for March will
tell who are disposed to install this desirable condi
tion of things, and who to grind neilucay debtors
into the dust of embarrassment. Let us all reimem
ber the golden rule of forbearance, and strive to do
unto others as we would they should-do unto us.
SPARTANBURO PEMALE COLLEGE.
Some fair young friend sends usia copy of the
Catalogue of this institution for 1856. The total
number of students i1s attendance during the year
was one hundred and seventeen. Among them
there are names from Greenville, Clhester, Laurcns,
Charleston, Newberry, Fairfield, Edgefield. Rich
land, Anderson, Colletomn, Union and Orangeburg,
besides alarge number from Spartanlburg and a few
from North Carolina. This colege was established
by the juint contributions of the citizens of the town
of Spartanburg, atid by the South Carolina Metho
. dist Conference. Much pride is enlisted in its be
half, n'nid a watchful supervision exercised towards
by both the0 commiunity and thte denomninatioathinter
ested in its success. The location of the college
buildings is' delared to be entirely healthful, and
the buildings themselves large and commodious.
This is the itistitution of which J. Worron TUcKER,
-Esq., is the President.

STABLE MANAGEMENT OF HORSES.
To a man who has fine horses and wants to keep
them so, the subjoined hints arc invaluable:
It is one thing to know how to use a horse, but
It is another thing to know how to take care of
him. A stabled horse needs special care and at
tention. His feeding must be as regular, as the
measurement of the hours. When a change of
feed is made, it must be done with groat care,
giving a small allowjnee at first, until the stomach
becomes used to the hange. lie must be cleaned
every day ;and when we say cleaned, we mean all
that can be conveyed by that word. A good cur
ry-comb, brush, and an oiled woolen cloth, arc the:
utensils necessary. First take the curry-comb,
and begin at the top, of the neck, back of the ears,
working the hand both ways. Proceed in this
way, till you have gone over the entire body and
legs. Then take both comb and brush, and follow
the comb with the brush, and after every other
stroke, draw the brush across the teeth of the I
comb, to clean it. An experienced groom will do
this Instantaneously. This done, take your cloth
and lay the coat, and remove the dust, which ad
. heres to the outside. The face and cars must also
feel the brush.
Few men know how to clean a horse properly.
If the above directions are followed, daily, your
horses will enjoy good health, generally. Stabled I
horses must be exercised daily. This is absoluto-.
ly essential to good health. If the feet of your li
horse'are brittle, and are liable to break and crack,
they must be oiled, once a week. A horse thus
treated, will always be ready to go when wanted,
and you will not be ashamed either to ride, or
drive him.
Another thing quite as Important, is a clean and '
wrell ventitated stable. We cannot excuse any ~
farmer, or home owner, who does not clean his
stables twice a day. A stable'should be so con
structed, as to have .a wide passage-way or floor tI
'in tront, to feed from. Above the manger a space a
shoa'd be left, a foot or two in width, clear, an
the passage-way shewld he the avenue for the stip
ply of fresh air to the nostrils of the horse. 0
.A horse enjoys a good bed, and it should never
be refused him. At night, take your fork and
make it up light, and you will feel amply reward
ed for the humane treatment you have given your
Every word of it the truth. We would not only r
have better horses, but we really would be better I
hm, if we sttened to such instructions as these
or-think of the Horse! is be not among the no
fest of animals 1 and is it right to treat hinT other
rise than carefully and gencrously I a

FALSEHOODS AND ABSURDITIES.
Nothing can appear more ridiculous to Ameri
an eye,, than the occasional comments of Euro
can reviewers upon American morals and A meri- ci
an politics. They evincean ignorance of cis-atlantic th
iatters, so profound as to blunt our indignation ti
,y its sheer cdnicality. No monstrosity is too S
aonstrous for these sapien' scribblers to recognise
s credible in connection with our country and our R
nstitutious. Any hoax can be crammed down J
hi
heir thiroats by a commonly sagazious wag, and
forace Greeley's most fiagitious winderings are
tecepted as ' holy writ' f.r all purposes of argu
nentation.
We have before us the December number of the
Dublin Uuiversity Magazine," which contains si
In article of this chimerical cast, entitlel " SLA- Is
VERY." It purports to be a review of Mrs. I
3Tows'S last anti-slavery novel, and is imade the s
nedium of a wild and high-flown attack upon t,
kmvrican depravity in general and Southern tur- t
itude in eapecial. The United States Govern- r
uent is spoken or as an Anti-Christ, awaiting but
,he flat of Heaven to be swept into the vortex of
revolution and destruction. It is compartd to that 1
of Romte in the days that immediately preceded I
I
the fall of the Empire. Then, says the reviewer,V
it was a conflict between slavery and Christianity
that wrought the grand finale of Roman power. (
Now, it is a war betwo it slavery and-the Church
that is to scatter the feathers of the American
eagle to the four corners of the globe. Slave- I
holders in America are set down as a limited n.um- t
ber of overbearing aristocrats, very nabobs, who
by the force of their wealth and pride control the
government and shape its operations to their own
nefarious ends. They are supposed to be at war
with truth, virtue, honor, mercy and !ove, and are
placed in a partivularly hostile tttitude toa ards
the Christian church. But the day of their doom
is said to be near, and an evident chuckle is dis
cernible in the stile of this monarchist reviewer
whi:e he predicts and depicts the subversion of
every thing American. No doubt, great joy would
sparkle along the crown jewels of Europe at such
an event; and their pliant tools And profit as well
as pleasure in pandering to their anti-American
hopes after the manner of the-stupid article before
us. Let them delude themselves as they list. Let
king or subject, emperor or parasite, hope and
prophesy as pleaseth the fancy or folly of each.
Our fate is not in the keepiug of fools;~ nor canall
the powers of earth and hell 6hake the foundations
of our government, if wisdom and patriotism shall
now prevail in our councils. It is just such rabid
comments upon American affairs, as this Dublin
reviewer delightedl3 put% forth, that should con
strain the great American people to eschew their
follies and come shoulder to shoulder in the grand
common cause of American Liberty. The help of
Providence has been signally with us from the in
cipiency of our government to its present fulness
of wealth and yiower; and it will retnain with us
and cherish-us i4to a'ten-folf greatness if we are
but true to ourselves, to our Constitution and to
the memory of our revolutionary sires.
We-cannot deny ourself the pleasure of laying
before our readers an entract or two from the arti
cle in question. In regard to the present condi
tion of things amgpgst us, mprk the following:
-At present, indeed.we see break in the clouds.
The pro-slavery party seem every where triumphant.
-As we write, the Presidential election has been
carried in their favour, in defiance of all compact,
shamefully violate. -iance uomi a si~ i
every disrrict to watch over and protect slaver'y
the ballot box, the crown-jewel of a sovereign peo
-ple, as an American senator has finely described it,
has been plundered. Preachers who dared to be
true to God have been ridden on a rail, tarred, tied
to a log, and thrown into the Missouri. A reigni
of terror has set in, unequalled usice the French
Revolution. A senator who had the courage to
raise his voice against thesothings in the senate
of the~ United States is brutally struck down, and
left stunned and bleeding on the floor of one of
the greatest deliberative assemblies in the world
nor was the act'the act of a single bully. As the
Spartan mother thanked her God that Sparta had
many more such sons, so Carolina subscribes to
show there are man~y moi-e Brookes. A silver
cane, bearing the inscription " Hit him again," is
the elegant trophy of a slave state to its pugilistic
hero. The Tipton Slasher, or the Brumamagemi
Pet would risc, no doubt, to the hotnours of Con
gress, and sit belted among the Conscript Fathers
of America, could they be induced to emigrate.
Was there cver a more egregious little chapter
of unmitigated blunders and falsehoods'? It is
only exceeded by the stupidity of the writer's at
tempts at argumcnt,a brief (but fair) sample of
which we can barely find space for. He is discus
sing the chances of killing ot slavery by finding
for Matnchester other cotton markets in India and
Africa, which are to undersell nigger labor and
play the dleuce immediately with slavery. And
this is his profound deduction:,
But this monopoly of slave cotton in the Mam
chester market depends upon a slight difference in
price. The price of a full-grown slave at work in
the cotton fields averages 800 dollars, atnd his main
tenanCe for one year averages at least lity dollars.
The profit Ihe yields his owner is calculated at not
mtore than one cent on the pound of cotton as it is
landed in Englatnd. To cheapen cotton oneC cent
per pound in Manchester would abolish slavery
an evil which nteither religion nor reason, Uncle
Tom nor "the underground railway," American
abolitionists nor English philanthropists have been
able in the least to check.
The long-eared ass ! lie has no concep~tion that
cotton has fluctuated from 8 to 15 cents a p)oundl
throughout its whole history, and yet slavery still
flourishes itn healthful vigor, Hie seem not to dream
that the profits of slave labor in the articles of
cottoni is regulated largely by thte amount made
per hand, o that this amonnt cant vary from a cer-,
taini fixed and unincreaseable quantity. lie takes
it for granted too that -the produce of American
save-labor can he easily knocked out of thte mar
keta of the world/by the competition of Indiansa
cud Africans; and this too with thte fact staring'
im in the face, that thte munificence of an amnbi
ions Emperor has thus far failed'to foster into be
nag even the initiation of such a competitio.--The
rticle is too absurd to dwell upon longer. And
ret such is the wisdom, sucht the veracity, of wri
ers who give direction to the anti-American fcel
ug of Europe.
DECISIVE BATTLES.
An English paper thus enumerates thte decisive
lattles or eartht : i
"The most decisive battles recorded in history
re those, at Marathon, of the A thenians and Per
ian ; at Issus, of A lexander and D~arius ; at can
ta, of the Carthaginiatns and Rotnans ; at Pharsalia,
-etween Pompey antd Ciesar; at Chailons, between
lie French and the I luns ; at Ihastings, between tI
[e Normans ad English ; at Bannockburn and CC
lodden, of the Sicot. and English ; at Cressy, Ia
'uletiers, and Agiueourt, of the French and Eng
sh; at Asealon, of Bajazet and Tamierhane; at
avia, of the French and Germans ; at Blenheim,
me French and Allies; at Fontenoy, of the French
d English.; at Luthen and Riesbach, of the Prus
ans and Freneh ; at Marengo, of the French and cc
sstrians; and at Austerlitz, -lena, Friedland, P1
eipsie, and Waterloo, of the French and Allied
raions." h
Johnny Bull dislikes to think of two other bat- di
es quite as decisive, if not so great, as any here or
entioned; we mean the battle of Yorktown be
een Washington end Cornwallis, and the battle
New Orleans'between Jackson' and Packenham. th~

XME. BUCHMANAN'S POLICY.
A ptominent Pennsylvania paper thus discourses
to the course and policy of the President elect:
Now, without assuming, to speak for Mr. Bu
anan, or to promule hit views on the topics
-ted of in the Enquirer, we nevertheless Yen
re to assert that Governor Bigler, and igobody
ie, is himself responsible for what he said on
e floor of the Senate; and, further, that neither
e Pennsylvanian, nor any other newspaper,
aks by authority of the President elect. Mr.
achanan is now, 'what he has been for the last
irty years or more, i thorough.going State
igh'ts constittntional democratic statesman of the
fierson and Jackson school, and in his adminis
ation of the government will be actuated, we
ive not a doubt, by a determination to do equal
id exact justicsto every portion of the Union.
is course of policy will know no North, no South,
East., no West. The constitution -will be his
)mpass and his chart. By it, and it alone, will
seek to guide the ship of State; and of his
ill as a pilot at the belm, and the lofty patriot
m with which he will be actuited, no one who
personally acquainted 'with the nan can have a
itary doubt. The Enquirer may, therefore, well
iterate its expression of " implicit confidence in
e President elect." This confideice, we venture
anticipate and predict, will not be shaken du
ng the next presidential term by any act of his.
[is course of policy we doubt not, will be alike
tisfactory to his friends and the lovers of the
nion In Virginia and Pennsylvania, in Georgia and
diana. But that policy has not yet been adum
rated, except in his endorsement of the Cincinati
latform and -in his letter accepting the nomi
ation.
We, therefore, respectfully advise our Southern
eniocratic friends to k;eep cool. The President
lect has always stood by their constitutional
ights when as.sailed by abolitionism of every hue
and grade; and, we firmly believe, he will stand
y them to the end. He is, therefore, entitled to
leir geierous confid-nce, even in advance of his
inuguration as the Chief Magistrate of the Re
blic. Let them not permit the opinions of A,
I, or C, who, we again aver, speak of their own
aponsibility, to weaken their faith-in the integri
y of the President elebt. If Providence. spares
is life until the fourth of March next, be will
ben take the oath of office and enunciate the
wrinciples and policy which he intends carryming
ut in his administration, and when be -does that
re have every reason to believe the Enquiror.will
e abundantly Iatisfied.
So far as Sitor Bialer in coneerned, we know
m to be a true-heated conservative Union-loving
emocrat, who will stand by the constitution anf
be rights of the States in every emergency. He
s a well-tried and faithful democratic statesman,
td we have no fear that he will prove recreant, in
ord or deed, to the great principles which have
ilways been his guiding star, and which are so
lear to every democrat throughout the broad ex
?anse of our gloriops Union.
In connection with the foregoing, we havd t1ie
pproval of Mr. Buchanan in' saying that the fol
owing extract from the SouthsideDemocrat states
:orrectly his position: -
" As for Kansas, Mr. Buchanan has never ex
pressed an opinion either one way or the other, i1
favor of its coming in as a free or a slave State,
e has prudently conceived that it is a mattei
vith which he has nothing to do, and with whicl
he does not mean to meddle. It is a question ex
hisively with the people of the Territory, witl
whom lie is content to leave it for solution. H<
will see to it that the principles of the Nebrasks
law are carried out in letter and spirit,'impartially
Fnd without fear, favor, or affetion."
Tiis exposition of Mr. BrcnAXAX's sentimenti
has very much the air of authority and sincerity
There is a degree of modesty and an absence o:
pretentiousness about it, which cannot fail to strik4
very reader of taste and experience. We hav
o doubt thatits distinguished subject will rigidll
adhere to the chart- here foreshadowed. His an
ecedents, his associations, his grade of statesman
ship, the school of which he is so able and sa
faithful a representaitive, the links that connec
iim so intimately with the good and great of
past and a better day, his Christian worth and ini
since Wsmsaro~s have commanded. True, hi
has arduous obstacles to surmount, perilous shoal
o escape. But with the honest and brave back
ing of all good patriots over this wide and glorion
'ountry of ours, he will (if any man can) guid<
the ship of State safely amid the gales of popu.
lar fury which in one section of the Uiiion seen
o threaten her with shipwreck. It is a warm
generous, energetic, undespairing support. tha
will carry him, and us, anid our country, and oul
institutions, right on in the road of success and c
glory. Godi grant lie may prove himself altogethel
worthy of this support, and that he may receivi
:t cordially and fully, at the hands of the Amern
an people !

DEFP.NDING Ti HF. SoCT1r --The New Orlean
Bulletin suggests the following method of de
fending the South: " The best waiy of defend
ing the rights of the South," the Bulletin says
is to make a vig;orous and extended assault up.
on old fiels and dilapidated fences. The ene
my is surec to enter at every gap, and lie con.
cealed in cevery brier patch and acre of weed,

dragoons, it is necessary to set the plough and
the spade going and then to overwhen hini witli
mountains of mannui-e. Nothming like manure
fo- the rights of the SouthI, and the expulsioni
of its enemies. They can't stand it at all. The
'Virginia and -Kentucky Resolutions, arec nothing
in comparison with it. They may be attacked
in front and rear, and terr-ibly shattered; but
muck from the swamps and deep) plowing, with
a plenty of it, will prove invulnerable. Cotton
bales are but gossamer in potency, placed be
side heaps of muck.
A Ricen CouxTv.--Dougherty county, Geor
gia, claims to be the'richest in the 'world; we
Ipresume, however, outside of those embracing
large cities. The valuation is as follows: Slavesy
$2230,12; land $1,781,887; money at inter
est, $650,567; city property, $;980,000 ; mor
chandize, $125,000 ; other property $60,000;
total, $5, 828,360. If the property was equally
divided out, each voter in thme County would bo
a considerable farmer, with nine slaves valued at
fye thousand dollar-s, and tenl thlousand dollars'
worth of land to work then) on.
IMPOR TANT TO BETTING MEN.--The Supreme
Courts of Ohio and -South Carolina have lately

bythie order of thle depositor, paid the money
over to the winner. Tliis decision of tbe Court

TO MY FATHER.
I'm thinking on the time, Father,
When a guileless little ch ld,
I listened to the pleasant tones
Of thy voice so calm and mild;
And as Lheed the prattling ones
Who all mny hours divide,
They seem like those who with me then
Close nestled at thy side.
And then I seem to dream, Father,
That on thy sacred head
Are resting almost four-score years,
And my, youthful ones are fled.
. That thy locks have whiter grown, Father,
And mine have sadly changed,
Since round our quiet fire-side,
A cheerful group we ranged.
But when the dream is o'er, Father,.
And I feel its all too true,
And that old friends are distant far
While all a-near are new,.
I dash away the brimming tears.
Which swell my aching eyes,
And sigh for that unchanging home
Where are--no broken *ie! E. W. R.

SARRL INSTANCE or AFFcT~oN IN A Do
-The nany extraordinary instances of the de
votion oe the (og to his arve, now on recor
seem too much for the bhef of most of mei
but the following was told us by a gentlena
well acquainted with t he circumstances, ani
many others in this vicinity can vouch for th
truth of the statement :
Charles Itneston, a man well known on th,
Alabama river, but for the hlt few years a resi
dent of California, was killed by the explosiomi
of a steamboat near San Francisco a few month
since. A noble Newfoundland dog owned bj
hi mescaped injury, and dragged the body o
his Fmaster to the shore. The dog bas seni
home to the mother of the deceased, residing i
Perry county, Ahabania. On being shown t
daguerreotypie of his lost master, the dog im
mediately recognized it, and commenced lifting
up the most piteous howls ; since that time 1h
has refused all food, and moans constantly.
When last heard from he was in a dying condi
tion, and is probably dead by this time. Where
in hiuman history, can be found such an instance
of devoted love and intense grief at the loss o~
a loved one.-Selmi a Reporter.
THE AMERICAN HoRsEs IN ENGLAND.-Th<
horses taken to'England by Mr. Ten Broecli
are at Ncwmarket, where they excite considera
ble interest. An effort has been made to bring
about a match for ?5,000 over a four mile
course, but the English do not seem willing tc
" come uip to the scratch." There is no doubt,
however, that the English turfiters have pluck
enough, and it is probable that the relative
speed of English and American horses will be
decided in the spring. Mr. Ten B3roeck's hor
ses are " Lecompte," ch. h., by Boston, out of
Reel, 6 years;- "Pior," ch. h., by Glencoe, out
of Gipsy, 4 years; "Prioress," b. f., by Sover.

LARGE SALE OF MoL ASSs.-The New Orleans
Ticayune, of the 10th ult., says:
" We learn that a sale of six hundred thou
sand gallons of molasses, on plantation, was
this ,vorning closed, in thme city, at sixty cents
per gallon, for the Ohio river. The molasses is
from the plantation of Col. John Preston, and
is supposed to be the largest crop in the State."
RiGHTs OF COLORED PERSozs.-Two colored
persons, named Julian B. McCrea and John
Stevenson, whlo were refused'admittance to the
" family circle" in the Howard Athienazeum last
week, at Boston, have brought suits against the
lessee and manager, to test the question in rela
tion to the rights of colored people in places of
amusement, especially theatres. The cases will
