UNrrED' TATEs sExN.-ThOKeowee .Uou rier in speaking of the vacancy in the Senate Co. Orr, our immediate Representative in Congress, is our-irst choice. He has the abili ty, and is a practical, sagacious man, thoroughly imbued with the State rights doctrines of the Palmettoes, and full of wisdom and patriotic State pride. The State would- honor herself in honorng him." We have not heard whether Col. Orr's friends intend urging his claims for the Senate or not. If he is-brought before the Legislature he will make a very strong run. There isno man in the State who commands more influence beyond the limits of our State than he.. .. e believe Col. Orr can be of more service to his State and the country at large izLthe next 'Congress f which he will be Speaker, than in the Senate. We hope, therefore, that his friends will waive his claim for the present and give their support to one of the other prominent men not already in the Federal sefvice of the State.-Winnsboro' -Register. Snious RENCoUTER.-A rather serious diffi culty occurred at this place on Wednesday last, between Wm. C. Caston and W. McK. Mittag. A bitter hostility had been engendered between the parties, arising from certain circumstances that had oceurred a few hours, or perhaps a day, previous to their .coming in contact with each other. They met near the Court House steps, whether designedly or accidentally we cannot say, Mr. C. armed with a revolving pistol and the other with a large knife. When within a few of each other, the former called upon the fier to defend himself, and, drawing his we& pon, fired. The first shot missed its aim, but a second took effect in Mittig's' cheek, entering just below the temple and lodging within. He stag ered of a few steps and fell, bleeding .pro fusey from the wound. It was not fatal, how ever, as was at first apprehended, and he is now considered free from danger.-Lancaster Ledger PRAswowr.--The Cheraw Gazette says, "John Wilkes, -Es-, who was fortunate eno h last season to make corn to spare, has constay refused to take'more than $1 per bushel for his corn, while it was selling at. $1.25 to $1.50.all around him. Nor would he sell to men of means, but held his corn for his poor and needy neig Wehave some few John Wilkes's in Chester, but it must be admitted that they are few and far between. Such men deserve to be noted and remembered.-Chareston Standard. WRY EREFUsED.-Major McCulloch's declina tion of the Utah governorship would seem to have.been founded on the most subsiantial rea sons,'ustifying him in persistently refusing to take e place, though twice strenuously urge by the President to undertake it. After statingto Mr. Buchanan various reasons for his refusal to accept the office-to none of which the Presi dent, it is said, would listen-the Major fired his reserve-informing the bachelor Executive that he could'ut go because he. was intending to get married soon-a duty the discharge of which he had neglected for forty years or more, until his day of grace had nearly expired. He at-once ae knowl ged his invincibility, and bowed his ae quiescence. BriGHAm's REIGN DRuwIXG TO A CiosE.-Gen. Scott has been called to Washington by the Pres ident to perfect arrangements for the despatch of troops to Utah. It is the design of the admin istration, it is said, to send out the new Territo rial officers with the militry force, thus ensuring their safety from attack while on the journey. The final orders for the guidance of the conmman der of the troops are in preparation. No attempt will be made to interfere with the religious or social institutions of the Mormons, but the United States laws will be rigidly enforced. Already the troops detached for Utah are in mo tion. Three companies on this service passed over the New York- and Erie Railroad on Mon day. ENTERPRISE IN KAN.5AS.-We notice by the Leavenworth Herald, that S. Manchester & Co. have contracted to .erect a large hotel in that, town to cost $10,000, to be finished in Novem beg next. The same firm have contracted to bui1a for $70,000 a bridge over the Kansas river at Tecumseh, by which the distatnce to Santa Fe is lessened by about seventy-five miles, a very important item to travelers. The bridge will be six hundred feet in length. STUDENT vs. PRawDNT~.-We have received and read the "Report of a Committee in behalf of. the Junior Class, and Students of the South Carolina College," and are convinced that the students in this, as in many other cases in the history of the College, have suffered because -they were so peculiarly unfortunate as to be young me. The report would do credit to older heads, both in regard to its "Saxon sim plicity" and precision, and to the singleness with which it marches to the accomplishment of its purpose. We are compelled, in spite of the position of those who will be against us in this matter, to say that we believe the students are right, and that they have been unfairly dealt with. This report embodies the whole difficulty between the President and themselves, and in it, while they lay serious imputations against him, they exonerate all the Professors from act inn in the least improperly. 9fhe students may have misrepresented the nature of the difficulty but the Board of Trus tees should have regarded them as sincere in their action, whatever it may have been, and determined their action accordingly. The prin ciple which governs a majority of the Board is one, from the display of which the College has ever suffered, and one from which we humbly conceive it can never derive any-good. They regard students as boys who are sent to college to learn and not to rebel, and who, whether a Professor be a blackguard or not, must attend his recitations, and receive his instructions. We contend that they are men who can easily per ceive when one who should go right goes wrong, and that it is their bounden duty to act upon the perception of that wrong, even though the result be their own expulsion, and the disorgani zation of the College.-Newberry Mirror. Probably the greatest leap. on record was made at the Helena Shot-tower, Wis., some time ago. A horse, 12 years old, jumped from the banik over a perpendicular precipice of one hun dred and eight feet into the river below, and came out safe and sound, atner swimming nearly halft a oile to a suitable landing place. The weater at the point where the leap was made was from twenty to twenty-five feet deep. MAnRED. In Hamburg, on Wednesday evening, *the 17th June, by the Rev. W. M.

But to Heaven she is gone Help us, Lord, to travel on To the home where she has flown. DimD, at-the residence -f. his sister, Mrs. DELI wt Pan.urs, on the 16th Tune, of Dropsy, Mr. WILLIAM HAMILTON, in the 75th year of his age. Mns. MARY. PERRY died at her birth place, the Ridge, on the 19th March 1857, in the 88th year of her age, being born August 12, 1769. There are some circumstances of her life'which may well give her distinction. She was the daugh ter of Michael Watson, a partizan Captoln of the Revolution, and distinguished by two qualities: intrepid coui-age and self reliance. And this lady also can say what few can, she saw George Wash ington on his way from Augusta to the seat of Government. He was attended at- the time by Generals Butler and Hampton-one tfie Sheriff of Ninety-Six and the other of Camden. Upon as certaining that she was the daughter of Michael Watson, who was killed in the affair at Dean's Swamp, he took her upon.lsuap. and, ordered his confidential servant John, to hand hiM his purse, from.which he gaye: her a guinea, saying she had been quite a little soldier. When she heard that her father had been wounded in the skirmish at Dean's Swamp, she and her, mother, both riding on one horse, hastened to the scene. of the catas trophe. When they arrived at the place they found Oapt. W.ktson in a small house, with a few of his soldiers, tleut.'Butler being left in com mand. They were not only. in great danger, but without f6od.' Expediehey and 'necessity had driven them to this position. But they did not resort to it utitil they -had perforhed all the ob ligations of soldierly. honor. Vardell who was killed in the fight made an appeal to his com rades not to allow him to fall in the hands of his enemies, and a time was taken, what may be re garded as a military pause, to bury him under a clay root. The party being reduced by desertion to a small number took refuge in a very small house, concealing as far they could their perilous condition. Upon entering the house a woman happened to be there, who had just parted with a child only three weeks old. Necessity and self preservation required the commanding officer to detain her for fear she would give such informa tion as would disclose the weak situation of the party. Under these circumstances a messenger was despatched to Orangeburg, and with prompt ness and gallantry, Capt. Kumpt, subsequently Gen. Kumpt, responded to the call. And moving with marked expedition, (the horses in a gallop,) he reached this house of distress. The little party had been suffering two days without food, and Watson was supposed to be dying. They placed him upon a litter, and carried him to Orangeburg where he died and was buried. The subject of this notice, his daughter Mary, entertained for his meqpory a pious veneration. She imparted in her conversation a warm enthusiasm inspired by the qualities of a gallant father and true patriot. Da ring the progress of the War she, on several oc casions, gave evidence of that high spirit and in dependence for which she was always conspicuous. In the early part of the War her father was taken prisoner by the British, near Ninety-Six, and was carried in chains to the main Army. On their way they stopped at his house, on the Ridge, and his wife, Mrs. Watson, seeing him in irons with his wrists chafed by the hiand-cuffs, gave vent to'her feelings in a flood of tears, and besought the commanding Officer to take off the irons.. Upon his refusing, the subject of this notice stepped out, saying " dont cry, mother-we shall -yet have our day." And got some ointment and dressed her father's wrists. Tihe British Officer was struck with hcr spirit, and said to his companions in ~rns, " She is a gallant little rebel." In-conclusion, she had some of the hereditary qalities of hler father, self reliance and inde pendence of opinion. By industry, frugality and just economy she acquired 'a handsome estate, and .set an honorable example. DR. M'LANE3S CELEBSATED VERMIFUGE AND -LIVER PILLS. Nzw Yoax, August 2, 1852. Mrs. Clute, of No. 272 Second street, beliving her hild, about three years old to be troubled with worms, purchased one botttle of DR.

July 1 1t 25 BITE OF A RATTLESNAKE CURED IN FIVE MINUTES, Mzssas. PERaY DAvIs & SoN-U ENTS:-A mer chant of Linnoens, in this State, informs me that re ently one of his sons was severely bitten on the leg by a rattlesnake, from the effects which he sufferred most dreadfully. The family chancing to have some of Perry Davis' Pain Killer in the house immediately commenced bathing the bitten place, without knowing whether it would or not afford the least relief, but sur prising as it may seem, the poison was soon observed to exude from the wound, and in five or ten minutes the young man fell fast asleep, entirely free from pain, or any effect from the bite, except the fleslx wound, which healed very, soon. By giving publicity to this fact in your pamp~hlet designed for southern and wes tera distribution, and such countries as poisonous reptiles more or loss abound in, it might serve the cause of humanity, and be the means of supplying an arti le, the want of which has long been experienced., Yours respectfully, ..H.
