TRIUMlPH OF RIGHT, OF PRINCIPLE, AND OF THlE FREEDOM OF THE PRESS. The important and interesting case of R. W. Gibbes v.. E. J. Arthur and John Burdell. the Mayor and the Chief Police officer of the City of Columbia, for forcibly objecting Dr. Gibbes, the Editor of the South Carolinian, from the Council Chamber, at a public meeting of the City Council, in consequence of his refusal to submit to an inquisition, whether he designed, or not, to report their proceedings, came off, it the Court of Common Plca=, at Columbia, Judge Withers presiding, on Thursday last. The whole of Thursday was consumed in taking the evidence, and in hearing the argument on a mo tion for non-suit, which signaily failed; and the whole of Friday was occupied, by the argument of counsel to the jury, until 7 o'clock, p. in. His Honor, Judge Withers, at 10 o'clock, on Saturday morning, fully sustained the plaintiff, on every point of law and ground of principle, in a charge, to the jury, of more than an hour'. duration. The jury then retired, and, after a brief interval, returned with a verdict of $:25 damages against Mr. Arthur, (more than double the atmount, requisite to carry costs,) and of 61 cents against Mr. Burdell, the mere ministe rial officer and agent of the .layor and Couin cil, in their outrage on the person and rights of the plaintiff. Although the verdict (doubtless wrung, from a reluctant jury, by the invincible force of the Judge's charge, on the law,) is ut terly inadequate, either to reimburse the ex penses of the plaintiff, or to atone for the ouit rage on private and putblic right, it is yet a full vindication of the plaintiff's position, taat, as it corporator and a proprietor of a public press, lhe had a perfect right, without challenge, or question. to attend the public mieetings of the City Council of Columbia, and, at will, to re port their proceedings, and his forcible ejection thezrom was a trespass on his person, on is rights,'as a corp'orator, and on the freedonm of the press, which entitled him to damtages, for the unjustified and unjustifiable accumutlation of wrong. That the verdiet wa so simli is nto re proach to him. His ts the triumph of right and principle, and lie can well afford, thutts crowvned with victory, anti the champion of the freedom of the pree, to de-pise the paltry consideration of dollars and cents. The case was argued, for the plaintiff, by Jshn Batusket t and Richard Yeadon, Es.quires, andl, for the defendants. by James U. Tradewell and Maxcy Gregg, Esquires. The following are the most important potb of the Jutdge's charge: "It is a right in every corporator to attend a pumblic meeting of the local legislature of the eity of Columbia. ie may b~e expelled for di. turbing the debates, deliberations, or proceed ings of such body, thotugh the nmeetmngs anid proceedings be public or open tot the corporatora To exclude a corporator from such pumblic meet ing or to expel him from it, at mtere pletaure, or for no reason connected with the free, full and undiaturbed exercise of their functions, or the discharge of their duties is niot a lawful exercise of power-and if force upon the person be used, it is an assault and battery. "It is mat ter of common right, in every spe cies of our elective representative govermntts, that the voter sliall be allowed, upon condition of good behavior in his demneanor. to hear the public debates and witness the pubilic proceed ings of his representatives, engaged ini the per formance of public trusts. " To exclude a reporter and to exclude a cor porator is not one and the same thing. To eject a corporator from a pubhlic meeting mterely be cause it is suspected, or avowed by him, thamt he mteans to publish a replort of its proceedltmgs, is not lawful. Yet'if such corporator las shownt by previous conduct that he caluniates, asper wes, or misrepresents the Council, and mtisleads the people, their contstituoecy, it wotuld preset a que.tionm of some difficulty to say whether hte might nt, or ought. not to be excluded. It is not this cause, upon the evidence, atnd neel not be decidedI. Any corporator who attends ttay give utnfauir or false verbal accoutnts of proceeinigs. and the diffe.rentce betwetn himt and the owner of a paper is only that time latter may give his account at widier scope and more permanttiet form. But if tinder giie of the Lbcirty of th Presse, a commtnon calumniator seeks in chtarac ter of corporator to mialign tmaliciou.,1y anid to iirepresent fraudulently the acts anid debates of a public body of any sort, it would be diffi cult for him, if that fact were miade to appear, to show a right to damages, if he be foiled in such a purpose. To assiuime beforehtand thmat this will be done, however, would amtount to a cencorship over speech or the lpre s. " Without some legal and satisfatctory- reasoit adduced to the contrary, Dr. Gibbes had a right to publish a true account of the public proced-. ings."

THE TERRIBLE ACCIDENT ON THE GREAT WESTERN RAILROAD. We have received by telegraph, from Toronto, some additional particulars of the terrible acci dent on the Great Western railroad. The report that Thomas C. Street, the millionaire of Niag ara Falls, was among the killed, is erroneous. He was, however, somewhat injured. Mr. Sam uel Zimmerman, who is reported as among the killed, is a wealthy Canadian banker and con tractor, who owns the large tract of land on the British side of the Niagara river at the Falls, re ported to be worth several millions. Within the past year or two he has commenced laying it out in parks and for building purposes. is im provements there are a prominent feature in the view from Goat Island, and will be readily re membered by every recent visitor to the ' ails. Mr. G. was a native of Dauphin county, Pa., and formerly held a subordinate position in the con struction of the Pennsylvania canal. By great industry and good management, lie inproved his conlition, and some years ago went to Cana da and becaine a contractor on soei of the great public works of the province. He gradually en arged the sphere of his operations, and finally amassed a large fortune. For some yearshehas been identified with all the great enterprises of Canada West, and exercised an ifluence in financial and internal improvement atT:tirs second to that of no man in Canada. We subjoin the fbllowing dispatches: TonoTO, March .--We learn the fllowin" particulars of the railroad accident near Hiamif ton from a gentleman who left the scene of dis aster this morning. The accident occurred on the Great Western railway, at the bridge over the Des Jardines Canal, which is elevates some sixty feet above water. The bridge swings, and it is supposed that the train, which had passed a short time before, had sunk the bridge so much that the locomotive of the train was obstructed by the abutments to spel a degree that the pas senger cars were raised up and thrown into the canal. The number of passengers were estima ted at front seventy-five to one hundred, of which only fifteen were t'aken alive from the wreck, and of these five have since died. The water in the canal is eighteen feet deep. and nearly all those not immediately killed were drowned. The engine and tender, with the engi neer and firemuan, were pitched headlong into the canal, and are buried twenty feet below the surtace. The baggage car and two passenger cars are completely shattered, and one of the lat t.r turned bottom side upwards and nearly sub merged. When our informant arrived this morning, the parties were still busy in extricating the bodies from the wreck. In one out-house adjoining the station house at Hamilton about fifty or sixty corpses of men, women and children were lying on one floor. No inquiry into the cause of the accident has yet been held. Most of the passengers were from Hanmilton, Toronto and the adjoining towns. It is intended to have public funeral of the unfortunate sufferers on Monday. Coininittees have been forned to wait on the friends of the deceased. Manty of the bodies have already been removed by the relatives. Filly-seven bo dies have been recovered up to-night. It is agreed that no blame attaches to the switchman or engineer. The li-out axle of the locomotive seems to have broken. The engine probably was partly on the rails until half way over the bridge, when it fell from the rails to the timber fraiming, a distance of fully 1 imches. The shock thus caused seems to have snapped the whole structure. It is said that the engineer (brave fellow !) whistled " on brakes." and, while endeavoring to avert the catastrophe, wvent down with the engine. We can positively contradict thme report that the switch was wrong, and that this caused the accident. Undoubtedly the aJle of thme engine mnust have been brokeni, as the left wheel left the rail, and maked the sleepers,-k&e., on the track for sinnle ten yar-ds befo~re reaching the switch. We have enm told by one of the gentlemen who jumped off, that the engineer, insteaid of atteimpjting to escape at the liist warning, staid until the mo met when the engine was precipitated into the abyss, and was reversiag the engine, endeavor mnpf possible, to pirevenit thme fatal result. It this be true-and we see no reasoni to doubt it too m'neh praise cannot be bestowed on the brave fellow who thus nmobly (lid his duty. LORD NAPIER'S INTERVIEW WITE TE PRESIDENT.

EDGERIELD. 5. C. WEDNESDAY, MARChl 25, 1857. The Rev. Basil Manly. THIs revered Baptist Minister will preach in our town on Thursday and Friday nights of this week. It is only needed to mention the fact, to fill the Baptist meeting-house to overflowing. Dr. MANLY is beloved here, as well by those who have never seen him as by those who sat under the droppings of his pathetic eloquence thirty years ago. He is traditionally treas ured up in the hearts of this people. And when he comes amongst us, it will be like a long-absent father coming back to his children and grand-children. Dr. MANLY is warmly identified with Edgefiold; he mar ried here and commenced his ministry here. Surely every one will turn out to hear his teachings. Some how or other, the face, and manner, and pathos, and purity of this eminent Divine always suggested to our mind the idea of John of 'atmos. New Adveatisements.

We have said that" an over-ruling Providence has manifested itself unmistakenbly in the care of the en- u tire American Republic. It is no less a fact, that this g exhibition of favor and protection from on High has p been especially vouchsafed to the Southern and Slave- q holding division of this Confederacy. However rabidly iu the canting Abolitionist may inveigh against the sin F of slavery ; however, with fiery wrath, the Henry v Ward Beechers of the North may pronounce upon us e the doom of heaven's vengeance; it is nevertheless d certain that we have thus far been preserved, and t strengthened, and enlarged, in a manner that astounds t the philosophy of the world. The South has been, r for many years. the slandered and abused of all peo- 1 ple, for many years the oppressed of its own govern- a ment; and yet a fairer prosperity, happier homes, a t higher generosity, a more elevated religion, a more devoted patriotism. a more permanent condition of r well-ordered society. and, withal, a more brilliant fu- t tuto, do not belong, have never belonged. to any other - branch of the human family. This is not mere asser- t tion. In England, ,m well as the Notrh, powerful pens 4 and powerful tongues have long been at work to in- 1 fluence the downfall of our institutions and the coo- c sequent destruction of our whoje.polity. They have t had the advantage of appealing to the passions and prejudices of men without a voice to gainsay their wild and furious charges. They have had the advan tage of attacking a (so-callei) national sin whose very name, as a watchword in the mouths of eloquent en thusiasts, might have become the instigation of an al most universal enmity to our section.. They have done what they could to lift the sl;re-holders of the South up before the world as monsters of iniquity. They have represented the condition of African servitude in our midst according to their own uninformed and jaundiced view of it, 'and the truth has nut been ex hibited to correct their one-sided and exaggerated statements. They have declaimed in the lecture-room and in the.pulpit against us, and have made the press to teem with their tirades of abuse and their appeals to the magnanimity of the Christian (?) world. They have called down upon us, in their prayers, the visi tation of God's vengeance. And yet to-day, byth. inherent justice of our cause, we are stronger before mankind and have more marked assurances of Hlca yen's continued watchfulness than ever before. To day, the products of slave-labor are more abundant than ever before, and more valuable in themselves. To-day, the area of slavery is wider than ever bofore and the prospects are brightening that it will speedily be extended. To-day. mankind are more dependent upon us than ever before, and the opening up of new nations to conmnerce is ready to double the field of our usefulness. Is there not the hand of Providence in this? We have been too the oppressed of our own govern ment; nor has it been a light oppression. Such was the fearful aspect in which it presented itself to South ern patriots of a past day that they themselves an ticipated the ruin of their country and the devastation of their homes as a necessary and unavoidable result of it. Hear the eloquent McDmera, as he pictured the fate of the South under the odious operation of the old Tariff: "Where all was' bright, and prosperous. anid happy," said that hero-orator, " they will behold nothing but decny, and gloom, and desolation; with out a :put of verdure to break the dismal continuity, or even a Ituse of the wilderness left on its stalk To tell where the garden had been.'" lie felt and believed what he was saying, and so thought and spiko many of his compatriots of that day. But the Almighty hand had planted us here as a peopmle (slavery and all) not to die hut to live, not to perish lint to proisper. And we have lived, have pros. peredi in spite of the condemnation of men and thme tyranny or political majorities. Aund now, that our shacklels are falling oil'one by one before the rays of reviving troth and justice ; now, that the intelligence if the age is learning to apprecibte our institutions aright; nr~w that thme sagacities of trade are becoming fully alive tii the vast impor-tance of our wealth andi resources to the commercial interests oif earth; now, that a higher philanthropy is willing to see the neces sity of cottiin (slave-labor cotton) to the wants of man kini; whnt limit, we ask, 'is to lbe fixed upon our on wrid mareb to increasing strength and increasing beneficence anmong the nations of earth ? God forbid we should express this faith in our future progress with aught of vaunting or vain-glory ! ahther let us; iiw in all the humility of true gratitudle, nna rever ently place the offering of' our thankfulness and praise uonllm liis altar who lhas idone. aol is doing, all this fur us in His own good time und according to his own wie inustruimentailitics.

In Augusta last week, we had thme pleasure mof list ening to an elognenit lecture frio this celeburated Irish piatrimt, upon the subiject if "PS:ACE ons WAa ms Ec no-." Masonic Hall was crowilded upon the occasiOn with a imost intelligent and fashionable audience, anid great satisfiaction was imanifested mii all asldes with Mr. MiTenatKL. and his performance. The next day we amd alsom time privilege of hearing him coniverse up on imilar toieLs, at a tiirget-shmooting which came off anmong his irish fallow-citizens, at Shultz's hill onl the Carlinia siile of thme Savanmnah. Onm this latter ocea si there was plenmty of gomid shiouting, goodi music, good drinking, mmid good eating no doubt, although we had nio time to remaini fur thme lattter. Mr. Mivenmi .1, is ii very agr'eeabile loctutrer ail quito' a plesanit gentleman. We believe lie has determined to remain permnanenitly inm thme United States; his resi dunc at preseint is Nashmville, Tennmessee-. Of course, in lecturing upoin European affairs, sine wh has suffered at thme hands of Englad'sm royalty, could nut he expected to be otherwise than severe up on that governmmment; wore especially, when that suf ferer is mime imf time domwn-trodlden hmousehlmd of the goo St. Patrick. Accordlingly Mr. Mrfenmii. deals in miny a hitter and sarcastic fling at that boausted land of constitutional liberty. Indeed this is by no means the least interesting part of his remarks; for he hates so thoroughly that it necessarily imparts to i his satire a very concentrated quality of Attic salt.r Mr. Mivenerm.i. thinks there is no heartiniess ini thme ex-r isting alliance of the European powers ; that there area deep-setedl jealousies among them ever reaudy to tear asunder time league on trilling grounads; that there is nuthig like peace ini thme heart uof thomsa nations; and l that there mre hidden fires benemith aud throughout g E uropean society every where (except in itussia) that nust andu will burst forth in revolution before many years. So much for Mr. Jemns MrrenzW, and his opin- e ions. Both they and he are entitled to consmaeration; for he is a well eduocated and well informedl man, and his views are basemd upon rational premises. ggJ. B.

HON. J. F. MARSHALL. ;2O-Wo find the following announcement in the at Aheville Independent Press: Nxw MAuET, March 16, 1857. Mr. Editor: In respect for the memory of our Ia ented Representative, lion. P. S. Brooks, we have ostponed to the present calling out Col. J. F. MAR ALL, to fill his place, in the Congress of our country. You will please announce Col. J. F. MARSA:.L a andidate for Representative in Congress. By so do ng you will meet the desires of his many friends. Lowan SALUDA. GOV. AIKEN AND MR. BANKS. In our last issue we copied a strung article from the lumbia Times, upon the course bf Gov. AmaKrE in naking a motion, complimentary to Speaker BaKs, it the se of the late session of Congress. It may e tha e ex-guvernor was prompted by motives of hivalry and'politesse' in this singular act; because te is (as we learn) a good-hearted and a well-disposed an. But it was certainly a totally uncalled-for step; nd, now that it has been mooted before the public, the luty devolves upon the press of South Carolina to xpress what each member of it regards as the feeling f the State in regard to the matter. Sofar as we have Beard, most persons concur In condemning the act as tut of place, out of taste and out of keeping with everything known or recognized as political propriety within the State of South Carolina. Some say they ire not disposed to think more harshly of it than as in indiscretion, weak in itself but not to be canvassed eously when coaming from a man of Mr. Azzcr.x' walibre. Others appear to regard it as a bid of that zonorable gentleman for popularity in certain Federa councils. But we confess we can only consider it it he light of a gross misrepresentation of South Caro. ina and South Carolina sentiment. Mr.,BANxs i ipown to be the head and front of the Massachusetts ,uti-slavery power, and a prime leader of the South's nost bitter enemies at the North. He is the indefati ;able agent of a party which is utterly inimical to ilmost all we hold dear in South Carolina. lie is the riend and counsellor of such men as WILson and rnxsaa, and doubtless stood aiding and abetting this latter individual in the perpetration of his infamous tsault upon South Carolina and Senator BtTLKn. He i a Black Republican, and desirous as such to over. rhelm the South with disgrace by esti4blishing her in. brioity in the Union. Mr. DAxKS may at the same im he a gentleman as the phrase goes; and Mr. tixxx may have deemed the occasion, which he s< nagerly grasped, a fit one to play off his own private sotions of gentlemanly courtesy. But we maintain he bad no right to do so in contravention of what h. night hare known would ho the feeling of his people it home upon the matter. In his private mansion ii Washington City, was the place to do what he might regard the handsome thing towards the retiring Speak ar. But done as it was, it plnees South Carolina beforc the country in the egregiously farse attitude of honey. ruggling Black Republicanism in a manner at onec lerogatory to her character and injurious to the in Leress of the South. We protest against Mr. A:KEN'. :urse as being repugnant to the wishes and tastes oc i5 entire State. THE FIRST DISAPPOINTMENT. Is nut this beautiful ?

Mrs. WIrr embraced religion in early life and attached herself to the Baptist Church at "Sister Springs" in Edgefield Distriet, when eighteen years old. A year after her union with the Church she was married to Mr. White with whom she lived happily for twenty-five years. Within the past three years she and her husband have been called to follow the remains of two of their little ones to the silent tomb ; and also to mingle their sympathetic tears with those of their eldest son shed at the loss of an affectionate and be!oved wife, whom they consigned to the grave. But scarcely had those tears been dried ere that family circle was again in vaded by death, and suddenly and unexpectedly that dear mother, and fond wife falls beneath his stroke, leaving that father and son in their bereaved Some four years previous to her decease Mrs. WHITE was permitted to rejoice at the conversion of her two eldest sons, and their union with the Church, at Mount Moriah, to which she had some years previously transferred her membership. Since that interesting event, she became more and more attached to the house of God and evinced a grow ing spirituality of mind fitting her for the society of the blesbed in heaven. suddenly has she been taken from a large circle of dear friends, leaving her aged parents, an affectionate husband, seven children (one an infant only a few hours old) a sis ter and three brothers, besides numerous friends and relatives to mourn her departure.
