March 27, 1858. Our people are proverbially foi -1 of going into ex tremes. After a complete surfeit of dissipation of every kind through the winter, which even the arri val of Lent at first failed to put a Stoi, to, the scene suddenly changes, and public attention is absorbed in a serios of excitements of a very different character. The papers are filled every tiny with advuri-ement' of I 'ia J'?C,yrr J !/MtL.-ind there is a very evi dent iisupoition to gut up revlval< in many of our churches and religious bodies. The Young Men's Christain Association are holding daily prayer maet ings at early hours of the norniug. In the Metho dist Churches meetings have been held nightly for a fortnight past. Union meetings are held at the Cir cular Church every afternoou, which are attended by Protestant Clergymen and Laymen of various de. nominations, and also at the Masonie Hall and at the Temperance Hall in the t'pper Wards. The Episco palians are keeping Lent, and will have as usual, daily services during Puesdon week. Our Hebrew brethren commemorate their Passover about the same time, and the annual ceremonies incident to this peri od of the year arc in preparation among the IRuman Catholics. So that with our whole r.ligi'.us commu. nity the present is a smeson of special prayer and self-examination. The last named exercise, will, I fear, if conducted in a proper spirit of humility, prove more now than ever, a pretty hard ordeal fur the great majority of us to go through, and happy will it be in every respect for those humble souls whose inordinate self-l',ve and devotion to maimon should not be too strong to unable them to acknowl edge the painful truth that they are "no better than they should be." While our young folks generally have been indulg ing freely in the '"pomps and vanities," "young America " is not slow in deviling juvenile resounrces of amusemtent. "Kiting" and "picking eggs " all pear to have run their course, and Bull~oonae are in the . accend-ancy. These exciting diversions, together with marbles, balls, tops, pluffers, bilbo-ketches, and - the enlivening pastimes of " shinny," " toucher," "prisoner's base," and others which will recall to many of your grown-up readers, innkable pleas ant associations of childhood's happy days, serve to fl up very profitably the hours of "recess " and in tervals between school-rccitationas, until the welcome arrival of the Easter holidays now near at hand, when all the boys and girls who can get away, make a gen eral rush for the country. The Theatre has been re-opened for a short Spring season. Bronne, the famous comedian, Miss Raymond and Miss Shaw, are among the stars figuring on the stage. Next week the Keller Ballet nnd Divertise ment Troupe, sixty in number, are expected. Werner's Concert Hall continues open every eve ning with additions to the list of musical performaers. " The Coquette " a celebrated Statue, by an Amern ean Seuiptor, (Win. It. Barbee of Virginia,) is ex pected to arrive here early next week, to be exhibited for a few days. The United States Circuit Court commenemces its Ses sion in our city on 1st April. The vacancy in the Board of Directors of thme South Carolina Rail Road is to he filled by an election to he held on 20th April. The Charleston Port 8oeiety at their late Aniniver sary meeting instituted measures for the ustabilish ment of a School Ship and Marine Schools in our Harbor. Comuittees are now soliciting subscriptions for this noble object which cannot fail to command the prompt and liberal eu-operationl of our merchants. An inquest was held ont Sunday lest at the Marine Hospital, on the body of Alfred Douviand, a native of Belgium, seaman from the Schooner Shepherd a Mount, who died on Saturday afternoon of wour.dls received on board of the Schooner. It appears that the deceased was struck b~y Andrew Wade, another seaman, on the right side of the head, with a hand spike, inflicting a terrible wound. Captain Smith. the Cotmmandler of the Sch"'oner, kept Douvatnd oni board 'tilt Wednesday 1ith, and then sent him to the Hospital, and sailed immediately for Georgetown, S. C., carrying Wsde with him. The Jury canto to the conclusion that the Captain was anm accomplice with - Wndo, and warrants were issued for thec arrest of both parties nis well as several other acumen as witnesses, whic-i. :-esulted in the arrest anal imp'risonmecnt of Wade at Georgectown. Thie Charleston P'reparatory Medical School re sumes its course of Lectures on the 1st Monday ini April. A course of Masonic Lectures is in progress before Kilwinsning Lodge, A. F. M. The first two Lectures have been delivered by John B. Irving and F. Lan -neau, Esqr's., on Masonic Literature. A pamphlet on the "Foreign Slave Trade," has just bee~n issued from thme press. It consists of a se ries of articles originally ptmblished in the Southern Standard by one of the Editors of that Journal, L. W. Spratt, Esq. Professor F. S. Holmes, of the College, has repub liLshed in pamnphilet form his Essay from the Mercury, on the "Remains of Domnestic Animals discovered among Postpleiocene Fossils in South Carolina." His researches in this interesting field have been at tended with valuable results. The learned Professor Agassis, says in a letter to Professor 1H., which is ap pended to this Essay, that "nothing has impressed him so deeply for manuy years past as the eight of these bones," and that he considers their careful study in all their relations as " of the utmost importance to the progress of science." Charles E. B. Flagg, Esq., one of our young prac titioners at the Bar, has digested an Index of the Stat ute Laws of South Carolina from 1837 to 1857, which I observe is noticed with fitvor by the press. The price is S Ito $5. It will be an acquisition to our law libraries. The author is a gentleman of high person al and professional merit.

It gives us pleasure to announce the first perform ance of our Thespian Corps for Thursday next. The bill is a capital one, and a pleasant evening nay be anticipated. The entertainment will be con ducted in the most approved style, in all its parts and accompanimente. A full measure of patronage is earnestly expected at the hands of our intelligent and liberal people. It is anticipated, if every thing works well for the success of the season, that assistance will be forth. coming from somie of our Thespians of other di:tricts. The admired "CLAI'C" of the Union Corps. is one among these expected helps. We hope that Newberry and Abbeville will also "send a hand or two " ocea sionally. Indleed we have little doubt but that they will, if our season is fairly and handsomely inaugura ted. And thus, our citizens will enjoy a varied and ploasiug series of evening entertainments; the place will be rendered cheerful and attractive; a degree of animation will be indirectly imparted to the town and its interests ; and so the whole enterprize will not only be enjoyable but advantageous to us all. . Let us then turn out on the first night of the season in fuil force. PORTER'S "SPIRIT." This admirable "Spirit" of the Times,--old wine in nece bottles,-con tinues to posses its place among the very first newspaper publications of America. What a fellow is that man Porter! How racy, how tasteful, how admirable in every light! Ever welcome, bright Spirit. Ever prosperous be your career. HAMLIN vs. IIAMMOND.

KEITT AND THlE " OLD GUARD." Our limits have prevented sour copying tihe late speech of Mr. Kr.mn upton the Kansas qunestion. It was conceived in his usunl eloquent style asnd prc. sented the argument in a forcible light. The follow ing are his closing remarks, in which it will be seen that lhe pays a very handsonme incidental tribute to the " uldl Democratic guard." His allusion to Presi dent Becnias is particularly beautiful: Sir, events are drifting to a dissolution of the Con federacy. The slavery question, it would seem, will slit it, as it has hitherto preserved it. Feudl, rival. ry, jealousy, class strife at the North, havo been kept down by a foreign war, by that section, against the South. But for this, they would long since have risen up and shaken down the fabric of tlovernment and society. The South, too, has been masde firmier, andi pressed closer together by her resistanoe to this war. Through it beth sectiomns are being rapidly consolidated. This onsuohidtation has hitherto been prevented by the Democratic party. Its ranks are now being thinned by desertion, andi broken through by assaults. When it gives way, the bands of this Union will be burst asunder. The President still stands firm, crowned with civic honors, covered with the love of the people, and guarded by the patriotism of the country; he still holds the citadel of the Con stitution, and has planted its flag upon the topmost turret. The South sustains him, and the "old guard of the free States" have loekesd their shields aroundi hin. They have rejected the blandishments of local patronage and the sedluctions of leauders once trusted, and have stood to their duty andI their color,. The "old guard" of Napoleon, which haud carried his ea gles all over Europe, and shaken them out only in victory, were drawn up to see the Louvre stripped of the glories and trophies they had gathered there, and to give in their adhesion to the new powers. They saw glories and trophies both disappear ; and stirred no feature, and moved not a step, while these were borne away. But when their loyalty was asked to the new powers, they indignantly scorned the propo-. sal. Like the " old guard" of Napoleon stands the old guard of Democracy in the free States; it still stands true to the traditions and testimionials and histories of its past; it scorns thme ad yances of fanati.. cism; nor, without .triking a. b7ow, will it tallow omie of its glories to bie sullied, or one of its trophies to be removed. WVill you, who have been in this old guard, take your former plauce in its ranks; or will you go over to another standlard, and swell the legions of the enemy? Your answer will be historical. Make it well, and make it wisely. Wt The House on the 27th inst., refused to expel Orasmus B. Matteson, the member from the 20th Congressional District of New York.

We of Edgefield should hold ourselves fortunate in being so conveniently near to this brisk, enterprising and useful city. Besides being decidedly the most prominent and popular business mart of Georgia, Augusta is rapidly growing to be one of the most im portant market towns of the Southern States. Her railroad connections, now running out in almost every direction, are making her one of the most considera ble depots of southern produce; and this central po sition, under the auspices of good banks and a high order of business energy and skill, is steadily work ing out for her a commercial future, which must re dound greatly to the prosperity of her own people and to the advantage of all her surrounding country. Already doos she afford facilities in many departments of trade which few Northern towns, and none in her own latitude, can surpass. Her cotton merchants, her produce dealers, her grocers, her dry-goods men, her manufacturers and her mechanics, are superior to those of any city of her size from Maryland to Texas. In some respects she has the advantage of even her larger competitors of the seaboard-esyeeially so in the important dep'artment of country produce. She is fortunate moreover in possessing an active and en terprising class of leading business men,---men who are ambitious of a well-grounded success for their city, and who spare neither pains nor the outlay of their means to attain it. To back these laudable aims of her capitalists, she also numbers a long list of vigi lant, accommodating and skilful dealers in the various branches of trade,-dealers who, acting upon the idea that "a nimble sixpence is better than a slow shil ling," present inducements that not only draw cus tom from the country around, but tend materially to esist the growth of the city's population and her consequent proiinenee and usefulness. It is from this point of view that we regard the beautiful city of Augusta, in congratulating the people of Edgefleld, and all others on the South Carolina side of the Sa vannah who are convenient to her, upon their good farttne in being thus advantageously located. Ot is because they thus are in the enjoyment of facilities wi-ieh few communities in the South, and none cer tainly in Carolina, can claim to possess. Is there any room, for instance, to compare the facilities offered by Columbia with those of Augusta ? And if not-(as every one must concede)-a contrast cannot surely be instituted as to Camden, or Newberry, or Winnsboro, or any other of our rising points of trade. Augusta has overwhelmingly the advantage of them all wheth er as to location, ability, or strength of population and the people of Edgetield, railroad or no railroad, have in her such a commercial emporium as no other community in South Carolina enjoys. We do not even except the surroundings of Charleston herself, partly for the reason that they consist chiefly in swamps and frog ponds; but even if in place of these there were a population like our own, it would be only in a few thiugs that their position would excel ours. It nay perhaps be suggested that we overslaw old Hamburg in these allusions to Augusta. Not at all. llamburg and Augusta are one and the same city in effect; and we are glad to know that the people of the two places are willing to be regarded thus, of course we mean as to all commercial purposes. Whether our Hamburg friends are willing to this con struction or not, is it not true that Augusta is gradu ally absorbing both them and their trade ? But how ever this may be, the two places are as one to us in the remarks we here make. We have them both in view, when we say that Etlgefield is better located, as to market privileges, than any other district in South Carolina. W e hope that Hamburg's lamp may hold out to burn, particularly in the cotton-buying busi ness; but i it should not, Augusta's certainly will. As an estabilished southern city, her place upon the map is likely never to be less prominent than it now is. The chances are inany that it will become more anal more consplicuous with every succeeding year. Wet trust so at any rate, not only for the sake of the advantages our people would thus have insured to them as it were, but on account too of her own clever population anti their most laudable spirit of proagress. Let us hope then that the people of Edgefield will not be slow to appreciate thmeir advantages in-this re spect, and to profit by their use. In encouraging Au gusta, we encourage a young city whose future pros perity can butt act most favorably upon our own wel fare ;-we help to create not only an emporium of traade at our doors, but a place where we and our chil drenm may occasionally hear anal see whatever of ex cellence the fine arts may display or science may bring to light, and that too without either loss of time or of mioney ;-we assist in erecting (it may he) a southern metropolis almost within view of our homes; and we also thus show ourselves to our Georgia neighbors in the light of brethren whose social and political affini ties are not tranmelled by territorial limits, or at least whose business negotiations are not held subject to such metes and boundaries. Once mere then we say, let us helpa Augusta, for in so doing we help ourselves aind encourage southern progress. OLD AND NEW STYLE. The initials 0. 5. and N.

Its waters as faar out fraom the gulf as the Carolina coasts, are of an indigo blue. They are so distincetly markedl, that the line of junction with the common sea waiter mauty be tacod by the eye. Often one htalf of thte vessel may be perceived floating in gulf stream water, while the other half is in thte common water of the sea ; so sharp is the line and the want of affinity bo tween these waters ; and such too, the reluctance, so to speak, on the part of those of the Gulf Stream to min gle with the common water of thme sea." GREAT COUNTRY. Thte following condensed statistics will give some iea of the greatness and rapid progress of the Aneri can people: "Thme United States are composed of thirty-one States and nine Territories. They contain a population of 27,000,000, of whom 23,000,000 are white. The extant of the aea coast is 12,550 miles. The length of the ten principal rivers is 20,000 mles. The surface of thte five great lakes is 90,000 square miles. The nutmber of miles of railroad in operation is 20,000, which cost $78,000,000. The lontgtha of canals is 5,000 miles. It contains the longest railroad on the globe-the llinois Central-which is 784 miles. The annual value of its agricultural productions is $200,000,000. Its nmost valuable prodnaetion is Indian corn, which yielads annually 40,000,000 bushels. The amount of registered and enrolled tonnage is 4,407,010.

The Kansas Adnilision Bill, in an unobjectionable shape, has passede "Senate by a vote of 33 to 25. PUGH of Ohio votaIs agalnst it reluctantly, under in. structions, or the vote would have stood 34 to 24. The House, it is thought, will also pass the Bill, but by a close vote. Were the Southern Americans true to their section, there would be no doubt as to the re sult; but they are no e Douglas, the Faithless, has used his wholepowerto defeat the Bill, and,as was to have been expeetid, has drawn from its support in the House a sufieet squad of faithless Domocrats to endanger its passage. It is hoped however that even in spite of his maonstroes exertions the measure will pass, and thus comparative quiet be restored to the country. Senator Toombs of Georgia has given the "little giant" a terrible castigation, beneath which he is said to have completely succumbed. If the Pugh amendment is offered in the House, some southern men will vote against its adoption. It is understood however that they will vote for the Ad mission Bill eventually, with or without that amend ment, which of course they are led to do by every motive of prudence and patriotism. Such being the understanding, we imake no comments. I .4 THAT TEXAS CHAPTER. 1. The Texas Almanac for 1858 was compiled and published by RicHiassoN A Co., of the Galveston News, said ILcHAinaoN having years ago held the rod of preceptor ino ur Edgefield Male Academy, and whom many of us (hWpupils) still recall to mind with feelings of respect and esteem. 2. The said Almanac is now before us abounding in information, statistical, historical, biographical and local, pertaining to the past and present of Texas. 3. And we proceed to excerpt therefrom such Items as we can find room for. 4. If we observe. n'o method in serving them up, it is because our friends of the Almanac have not done so before us. 5. Texas has 43,878,847 acres of land, valued at $61,863,202; so valued for purposes of taxation. 6. Texas has 113,217 negro slaves, 189,355 horses, and 1,610,700 cattle. 7. Texas permits'the selling of vinous and other liquors under bond for good behaviour and $250 per annum license-tax fn every instance. 8. If a husband or a wife die in Texas, the survivor continues in the use of the community property (if not subject to debt) having only to furnish the Chief Justice of the county with an inventory of said prop erty; and this whether there are minors in the case or not. 9. The legal rate t Interest in Texas is 8 per cent. Parties may agree upon any rate as high as 12 per cent. When more is reserved no interest can be recovered. 10. Bear are saidtoabound in many parts of Texas, but are not considered profita'ale, being very destruc tive to corn and hogs.. 11. There are onehundred and sixteen counties in the State of Texas. i' 12. "Every species of soil adapted to every species of production may be found in this State," is the Almanac's very general remark. 13. The health of Texas is generally pretty fair, except yellow fever here and there upon the coast, and occasional chills and fevers in the interior. 14. Transportationof produce and goods is gener ally effected by ox-teams. 15. Texas is a fine country for stock of all kinds. It costs thero no more to raise a cow than it does here to raise a chicken. Sheep are raised with abundant success. Mr. KENDALL,of New Odeans Picayune mem ory, has been very lucky in his experiments upon the woolly family. 16. Water is plentiful enough in some parts of the country, but in many localities recourse to cisterns must be had. A acaroity of water is one of the greatest objections to Texas. 17. Artesian wells have been tried with success. 18. Texas is lIberal in her public institutions and their endowment. 19. She has established a Lunatic Asylum at a cost of $50,000, an Asylum for the Blind at $10,000, and an Asylum for the Deaf and Dumb at $10,000. Also 100,000 acres of publiclsnd have been set apart to words the support ef each of these charitable institu tions.- - 20. The slave population increased in Toxas, from 58,161 in 1850 to 113,217 In 1856. 21. The Methodists appear to be the most numerous denomination. 22. The ports of Texas are not very good. The bars shift, and the best one of them has only a depth of from 10 to 13 feet of water. This is the Galveston bar. 23. Texas has been exceedingly liberal in encourag ing railroad enterprises, having applied an immense quantity of her public lands in this way. 24. H~oi.nso- was twice President of Texas in her Republic-ancy, Mirabeau Lamar once, and Anson Jones once. 25. The gubernatorial seat, since her admission into the Union, has been successively filled by Hien derson, Wood, Bell twice, Pease twice, Runnells. 26. Houston and ltusk have been the United States Senators. Hiendersen is now Senator. 27. The salary of the Governor is $3000, of the Judges of the Supreme Court the same. 28. Te.rian is preferred to Te.raa in denoting a citirzen of Texas. 29.

Enzvoa:-I have seen that " S." has pretend ed to answer my first piece. I did not expect the attempt. And all men can see how he has failed. My brother decalers say to me that I must try to get moy style improved. All I have to say is, that the man at the bar (I don't say what kind of bar,) who corrects my spelling, tells me that he will see that it Is 0. K. To answer "i." I will begin by quoting a line from a Choetaw Chief named Flae, who lived about the time of the fall of the Hellesp~ont, it is this: " Tunten~e irr in celeslibu anim,,,." This means, you know, in our talk-"Listen how these angels sing." Now sir, are not we Liquor deal ers manrtyrs? Look how we are abused ! "'s"' says we deserve "contempt"-but for your kind words of us, he would not notice us. Hie says we are "dogs" and " full of fleas," " depravity," and " degradation." Heu has the impudence to say we have fallen into the "p'it," wkon I had just told him there was no such plance-wants people to believe that I am the p~ersonal devil-nd says he doubts no more of his existence. lIut amidst all his abuse, he admits that our " faith and psractice are consistent." Hurrah for us liquor deralers ! Three cheers for " S."-he says we are con sistent. Wonder if his practice is "consistent" with his faithi You say you will " pray to meet me in heaven." Now don't you know we are all going there whether you pray or swear ? You say, "Farewell friend." Good bye, sonny,-be a good boy. lBut look here: You see those tumblers that had sugar in the liquor I just sold those boys on their way to school-see how thick the flies gather on them. Now there is not a diy on that quart pot by which I measure the vinegar whiolh I make and sell from the washings of my cups. You say "frIend" ones and curse me a thousand times. Now there Ia not enough sugar for all that vinegar. I wont lick at it. You see, Mr. EDITOR, how I have ingeniously turnedi from this issue between us on the liquor traffick, un der the cover of the dust he has raised about devils, and fools, and hells, and fandangos, and fiddle sticks. Aint It nice ? But I see that there is a fellow over in Georgia who is writing in his paper against me, and making for himself "ears 18 inches long by the square." lHe says that the Devil will roll us liquor dealers up in a pile and fry us ou a gridiron in his brimstone kitch n. We could stand that very well if he would only attempt to cook us with our own liquor. Can he set the creek a-Are ? The morals of our Southern States are getting to a pretty pass Indeed, " Woman's rights" are reaping out a little. I see that " San" has come out in a piece of mongrel poetry to encourage "S." in his Quixotic attempt on the saw mill. I say that women had better mind their business at home. I know she is talking about her home, but I mean in plain talk, that she should rule her tongue. She alludes to the Schools for the boys and girls in this place. I see that there is great reason for my business, and so does the town council, in this rery fact. The boys should be brought to know how li ~uor acts on man. Lord Bacon says "experience is heo beat teacher." And then, unless they are trained n0 tiqge to Its use, they will get foolish notions about :t Dqg4iq i 99 aR4 tler, a no 4angey of opposi on to my tradq from thqm iwhqn &hp! grylJ gs. If hey rule they will give license, and make laws fop he good and respectability of the trade. And as to see things going on, so that when they get married, and their husband comes h-ne drunk, and abuses them and the children, as they did " SAut," they will be used to it; and when they go out on the win ter night, with a little one in tie arms and leading another by the hand, hunting the way to their fath er's house, for shelter, to tell him the tale of her Ight, and her husband's violence,itwill notgo hard with the old grey headed man and his wife if the thing is a common occurrence; but if the thing is seldom done, for lack of liquor dealers, it would make a mighty stir. So you see it helps to train the young people, and gives them experience, and then they will become customers for drinking, and cooking, and syllabub making, ec. So my business will be kept up. I recollect seeing a young man, who was properly trained under the shadow of the grop-shop, who, when he was dragging his father by the hair, out of the door, heard the father say, "0, my son, don't drag me over the door step, for I serer dragged my father beyond the door." * So it will be kept up from father to son, and to wish my business, I must even say, "So mote it be," as the wish of A (QUASI) LIQUOR DEALER.

All other matters may be properly adjusted and adapted to the real necessities of men, and yet, derangments in money matters may blast the fairest hopes and brightest prospects. This has been proven to us Again and again, and although we have been near ruin's door, not only since last fall, but often be fore that time, in consequence of the fluctuations in a deficient currency, yet we still continue to pursue the same unsuccessful course with but little alteration or change. When we retrospect the past, what can we hope for in the future but desolation and wide spread ruin, without a permanent change in our pecuniary matters. But a few years since, and it was a very du bious question with many whether the State Bank should be continued or not; but that excitement soon subsided and instead thereof a mania In favour of the formation of new Banks sprang up almost in every section of our State. So much did the peopleget in favour of Banks that had not a timely check been given, there might have been ere long, a Bank at eve ry Court House in the State. About the year 1820, the spirit in favour of Banks had gone so far in the State of Georgia that almost every merchant of note had a Bank. The result was that In a few years sub sequent to that time many of the merchants and their Banks, with many farmers, were bankrupts; and we think it very propitious indeed, that a timely check has been given to the formation of new Banks in our State. We plainly see that even now our weal or woe is at the mercy of the Banks. Nothing could perhaps more effectually produce that state the most to be dreaded than permanent and lasting derangements in the Banks. This is fully proven to us by the recent fluctuation that has taken place in pecuniary matters. Many of the strongest men have not been able to withstand its devastating effects. Knowing then as we do, the contingency which rests upon almost every thing in consequence of the very precarious and uncertain condition of the Banks, what shall we do? Tear down the Banks? I would answer, this should not be done precipitately or in haste. I would give a specified time to all to prove their solvency and at the expiration of that time, all that were found by a thorough investigation of their real condition to be defective or insolvent should be dispossessed of their charters. To add facilities to the transaction of business and the conveying of money from place to place, I have always been in favour of a State Bank and Branch Banks of the State at every important place of trade, ntwithstanding there are many and very serious ob jetions to such a Bank. I think a well conducted Bank of this kind might be made to contribute essen tially to the revenue of the State. But to place it in the power of any man or set of men to use three pa per dollars to one in specie, and many of them no doubt not only seven to one, (as the President states) ut much more, is unjust, unequal and absurd in the highest degree. But this is not all, these men have it in their power to puit our all in jeopardy,' and' bring upon us the greatest calamity whenever they see proper, as has been recently proven by their suspension. How it is possible for any one, after being informed of the real condition of the Banks, to say that he has entire confidence in the solvency of the Banks we know not. It is really startling to read the accounts given us of the Banks by able writers. It is enough to arouse every man to action, to see his imminent danger. We shall not oppose any man for voting against the Banks. We have no need of but one Bank, and that should be the State Bank. This could be made to supply a sufficient amount of currency to answer all our purposes, and the State be much benefitted by the interest of the money in use. Those Banks that have withstood the storm of suspension and have continued all the while to pay out the coin, certainly deserve pat. rona;e; but we say unless the Banks can be better conducted than hitherto-Tear down the Banks.

Dear Bronson: I have never before witnessed such a melancholy occurrence as transpired yes. terday morning at the house of Jacob C. Kitchen, some six miles above this place. The circumstances of the case are as follows: It seems that Jacob Kitchen and one Herrin had an altercation about some matter, when Whit field Kitchen, the son of Jacob Kitchen, came out of a room near by and made an attempt to stab his father. His step-mother met him, and prevailed on him to shut up his knife, and told his father to go off, which he did, to the kitchen. The son, however, and Herrin, pursued him, and stabbing fight ensued, between the father and son, and Herrin gathered up a cudgel and struck the father. as his son left him, the son inflicting a desperate stab and Herrin a blow with the club of which he died in a few minutes. The son al so received a wound in the chest, from his fa ther's knife. He is yet alive, but there is nohope of his recovery. Herrin ran after a physician, but on his return found Kitchen dead.
