Those of our citi.ens who are incredulous upon the .ubject of horse taming, can have their doubts entirely removed by applying to 31r. Ananz Av xtssus, a professor of that art now in this place. 31r.

Having attended Mr. ATxaIsos's instructive exhibitions with a number of other gentlemen, we take pleasure in saying that the thing Is no bum bug,-but, on the contrary, a practical good, which all country gentlemen, and especially such as art f-.nd of horses, should thoroughly understand. Mr. A. can put you through easily and elegantly. James Heney, of Augusta. On- of the tuost inviting Stores in the City of Augusta is that of Mr. JAmrs ll:xey.

WE aunounced very briefly in our evening edi tion of yesterday.(says the Augusta Ouneitution oUet, of the 3d inst.,) the destruction of the steam 1uat Augusta, by fire, on the Savannah river, about firty miles below this city. The Augusta left here at half-past four o'clock on Friday evening last, and was on her way to :avannah, with a very valuable cargo, consisting of some seven hundrod and eighty bales of cotton. five huudred and thirty-five barrels of flour, a lot of bran, and other articles. About eleven o'clock P. M., while laid up at Eagle Point, fire was discovered in eumo c.tton in the fore part of the boat. The progress of the tire was very rapid, and the boat was soon envel oped in flames. Most of the hands were asleep at the time; and it was with great difficulty that Capt. FRAssn, or any of those on board could be saved. Mr. Ifenry Day, the first engineer, was drown ed; and three negro men wore also lost-two of them drowned, and onc-the cook-probably burned. The boat was burned to the water's edge, and, with the cargo, is a total loss. We have been in. for-ned that the cotton was insured, a portion in New York, and a portion in Boston; and the flout in this city; but there was no insurance on thie boa:t. 'The origin of this unfortunate and melancholy affair is unkn~oan. Hion. Jats. P. Carroll.

Let us all do our duty in the matter, and the Plank hoad will soon be renewed, and a great instirstltoa tmer prsred to the district, Remarks of Hon. X. L. Bonham. On Monday last quite a number of our most intelligent citizens were in attendance at this place notwithstanding the heavy rains of the night pre vious and the swollen condition of the creeks and branches. At the hour of 12 M, it wits announced that our immediate Congressma, General Box tAM, was ready to addre.-s his constituents on the political matters of the day ; and in a short time the Court House was thronged. General BJuMAU said that he found pleasure in being able thus early to comply with a call that had been ma.le upon him to address the people. lie responded readily and cheerfully. The events of the past Session of Congress were of great mo went to the country, and he deeply regretted that the indieations were of that inauspicious character which prevented his replying with hopefulness to the inquiry addressed to him as one of their senti nels- Watchmian, what of the night ?" le could taot say, with the sentry ton his lonely round, -All's rell!" Duty compelled him to declare that it was not a time of security with its, but that, to the reverse, the rights and interests of the South have never b)een in more peril or in greater danger. Nine years ago Mr. CALHnOrS predicted with his aWcus touted forecat, that if this shtvery agitation were not arrested i its mad progress, it would end in a lissolution of the Union. Were he now alive, he wYould find but too much cause to realize the force of his predietion,-to be convinced, in fact. that the events he foresaw in the distance were almost im mediately at hand. Thero were many matters of intercst before Con gress at its recent Session, but that which towered in na-gnitude alove the rest was still this ceaseless question of slavery. Reference to the later de bates of the Session will indicate with sufficient clearness what we are to expect in this connection from the Federal Congress. General Bos.tx then reviewed the progress of the anti-slavery agitation and its repeated en croachiments upon the South. He spoke of the legislation of Congress begun as far back as 1784; af the famous ordinance of 1787, by which Slave States ceded to the anti-slavery demand extensive and invalualle territory; of the Compromise of 1S20 and its adverse effects upon the power and trell-being of the Slave States; of the California swindle, by which territory purchased largely by Southern treasure and Southern blood was yielded to the craving appetite of a rapacious anti-slavury majority. It had been said that. to compensate for these frauds, a repeal of the odious Missouri Cumpromise had been effected. But what will be the value of that repeal, if the dangerous positions of Senator Dovsw..ts are to exercise a controlling influence in the direction of affairs? It will prove to be but a pliantom to allay Southern indignation; .tud instead of resulting in her benefit, its advan tages will rather accrue to the North, opening to her citizens yet more available means of occupying even the Southern territories and of banithing slavery from their borders. The speaker next proceedel to combat the dan .crour views of the Illinois Senator. The mischief nan with a real or affected midunlerstanding of the Kais.ias Nebraska Act. By thenon-interveution of Congresi, nomore nor less was ever meant than this, that Congress should not Legislate slavery into or out of a Territory. Abolitionists said Congress had that right. Both wings of the Democratic party denied this. The Southern wing nmaintained that the question of ilvery or no shivery, is to be decided by the Con .cntion calledl (whenever the nunnber of the in abitants justified i: ) to f..rm thu Conastitutiona of .he new tte, prep.aratory toa samision into the .uonfederar~y of State5, and not bieforo. Squnatter Seivereignaty, whilst it admliits thae right ot' the daanholder to go with is elaves itto the Territu :ies, stays, that tho power to dutermninu whether .lavery shall or .batll not exist in the Territories. is in the Territuorial Legislatatri: and if the Leg islature, as hits been donte in Kanisias, any sluimery shall not exist in the Territory, athiongha it adumits the action of that Legislature mtust be subordinate to the Constitution and the Supreme Court, still it further says, Congress can not interfere to enfore the rights of the slave holder in the Territory. If this doctrine be true, it is as bad as the Wilmot Proviso, and renders the repeal of the Missouri~ Compironmise a dead letter. It is the idlest mnoeke ry to tell the slaveholder, you have as much right to take your slaves into the Territories, as the northern man his horse, but if the Territorial Leg. islature, backed by a handful of Squatters, say slarery shall not exist, that there is tao remedy. Wherever there is a right, there is a remedy. The Kansas Territorial Legislature has under taken to prohibit slavery. This sets at naught the Constitution and the deision of the supreame Cottrt of the l'nited States, and whenever a case arises of a slave holder hbeing deprived of the emjoyment of his prtoperty by sutch Legislation, it will be the du ty of Congress to pass rsuch laws as will carry in to effect the trite intcnt anid meaning of the Con stitution. Any otlier doctrine will prove adestruc tive of thte rights of the Sotthern pe:'ple in the comnnuan Territories. The cretaure can not he greater than the creator. Congress has nao right to Legislate slavery into or out of a Territory. Can its inere creatures dlo it ? But Congress has. pssed a ftugitivc slave law, to carry otut the prei viions of the Constitutioan even in Sovereign States. How much more then is it compectent fair Congress-ay, its duty, to 1pass necessary Laws to protect the rights of the citizen in the Territories whent the nmere creatuires of Congress not or.ly re. use that protectiona, bait legislate adversely.

But ho has gone against us, as the declarations of his Freeport speech unamistakeably prove. His ntew-Iledged principle is dangerous to our republican systemn. and especially dletrimnental to the interests of thte Southernt people. It prepares in our territories an invitiag resort for the dlocks of emtigratnts datily rriviaag at Northertn ports, antd for thae surplus population oif te Northern States, tmatny of them lrwnm fraom the vilest purlieus of their cities. Int tts operationa, it presents the startliung spectacle of a few thousanad such settlers gifted with thte extra. riaary power of exclu.ling eight millions of freemen from the common property of the pecople of these States. In the latS Congressionial debate, Sentors, MAsosc, DAvts, Blaowy, and others, met this view of the Illianois Senator with the declara tion that his doctrine is not, was. not, and cannaot ~e the doctrine of the Souath. But for this danger ons developement by one who has occupied so prominent a position in the democraticeranks, there was ground for hope that our territorial organiza tions might have proceeded peacefully in the fu ture; but ntow that Kiansas has undlertaken to abolish slavery in heur bordern, now that thais doe trine of squaatter suvereigntny is being enmbraredl op::nly by the Northa, anid at least by the D~ocur.As fation of the democracy. thec question is upona us and w tare oiblige-1 to m~eet it.

Ilo wol~l foilow up that train of thaoughat. The politi cal parties of the ciunatry are also going by the board. The Whig party is already gone; and the Demoratic party, he feared, was also about to lose the prestige of its greatness and success. No man had anore to do with bringing this about than Senator DrotGtAs, by hais combahination with theo llack Republicans against theo Lecotnptont Con stittion. If lie was th"n aspectedl of unsoundi ness, what cani we say of lhhat now, that he has pulpatly gotne iver to the enaemy. tenteralh Bosnt~s thena proiceededl ti tourba brief ly tp-n the Taii, deehtarinag his~ telief tlait we wiold lie speedily callead oat to look this qauestioan fully ina thae face. Ito outtured inato a critical analysis of the present tatrif, showing its unequaal bearing on the South. IIe feared ate division otn this point in South Carolina. Even in 1833, when diferenes existed amongst us as to the mode of re dress, her people were a unit In hostility to the protective system. To this day, their hoatility is the .m.n .. ihsen it was first flly eunkindled by the natchless eloquence of our own McDuIFFvK. Hap py for us, that it is so; fur that battle is again to )e fought. During the iast winter, we of the iiouth had cause to realize the coming on of the ttorm. Upon the very first day of the Session, a lemocrat succeeded in suspending the rules of the House, anel presentedi a resolutiou to revive this abomination. Tho object had in view was mificiently clear; indeed it was not sought to be liogulised. The aim aul purpose wasi protection, by increasing the duties on articles at present taxed, without reference toa any abridrement of the piresent free list as was hited. Dy great exertion the measure was smothered for the so.ssion ; but it will in all probability come upon us next winter. With the falling off or the democracy to be expoe ted in Pennsylvania and elsewhere upon this t-ub ject, we cannot well hope to avert the measure longer. It will be forced upon us, if we are pre pared to submit. ' The speaker next alluded to the Homestead Bill, spoke of it as a pet scheme of the abolitionists, well calculated to assist the emigration societies of the North in filling up the territories with free votes. With the allurement (f a homestead in the distance, free of cost, the operations of these societies would he increased tenfold. Bring, then, into successful llay, the infamous doctrine of sqjuattersovereignty; and we of the South, and ours. are forever exclu ded from all participation jn the benefits of the public domain. In this connection he would ten der a deserved tribute to the manliness and virtue of President BuenASAM, who had boldly vetoed this insidious hill.a The present administration, he thought, had come into power under rather unfa vorable auspices ; and up to the time of WALKri's dismissal from Kansas, it could not be said that the President was altogether acceptable to tile South. Some of his principles were not so now. His recommnendation of specific duties in lieu of ad ralorents, stood prominent among these. (Here our representative drew a lucid distinction between these kinds of duties.) Uis Pacific Railroad project and his suggestion of a Mexican Proteetorate were likewise objectionable. But Mr. BUCHIANAS has yet stood the friend of the South on many ques tions. anl he deserves the gratitude of our people. His veto of the Homestead Bill, his ardent support of the Lecompton Constitution and his present un flinching advocacy of the restrictive clause of the English Bill, form a part of his course which calls for our unstinted approval. He (General B.) whilst ever opposing the administration where he thought its policy incompatible with the interests of his section. had ever given it his most cordial support when right. In regard to the Publie Expenditures, there was ample cause for dissatisfaction in knowing that sixty millions of dollars were now called for to de fray the expenses of administering the govern ment, whereas thirty millions were sufficient for that purpose only sixteen years ago. This rapid increase of expenditures could be rationally ne counted for, in part, by the necessities of our growing country. The increaseo still was enor mous, and presented a fit subject of reform. The Democracy was not altogether responsible for this state of things. The Republicans must bear their share of the blame. The former had already com menced the work of retrenchment. "Thus," said the speaker, "have I brieily ad verted to some of the dangers that beset our path way in this Gtoverninetit. You will now naturally ask me,-what is the renmedy ? The question is one of omomnentonms ltnterest, and neither to be asked nor aniswerc.1 lightly. I 'rrepilyinmg to it, I enn on ly sprask fir miysell; and I utter what I wounld sayv if myl voice were pote'nt In tihe Soutth.

M.y auggstion is, that the Southi stand upl as uone lmanm in defence of her rights in thme U'nion, having for her first great object the control of the Democratic party. But if that party shall refuse to stand with us, then will it become neces sary that we take our own position as a section. If our while people, Denmocrats, Whigs and Know nothitngs, will layv aside their differences andl unite for this work ; if we shall resolve together tso avoid all distracting issues new or old; we can than make the democratic party of th'e country feel that we intend to have our rights in the Union or otut of it ;-and then there may be hepe. But. faling In this, what rhoutld we do? Stand still and have the chains of slaves forged upion us? Every true Southern heart will answer, "lierer." Some movement maust then be hegun, if not by all, by some portion 'if the sluve States at every hiaz nrdl. We have the example of the OMd Tiir'teen to cheer us, itn the history of their nlovemient to wards the war of the Rtevolution. T1hat moire ment was not a simultaneous one ; and so may ours not lie. Like themn. some two or umore of the slave States may be counpelled to take the lead; and like thenm, all the rest will follow and consu mnate the great achievement, lBut in the initiation 'f ineh a movement, there are tw~o or three steps it will be right in us to take. First, let us idrup the existing Compact. Secondly, let us form a new Compact with new guards for our safety and equality in the Union. If this be not accepted. then what is left us but to flitng to the breeze the banner of a Southern Republie ?" The speaker here cloisedl amid the applause of his gratified auditory.

You are aware, too, that the Ladies of Georgia participate in this undertaking, and from time to time have called Open gentlemen to aid theta in the accomplishment or their pur pose.

A respected and cherished correspondent en guires of us: " Why is it that you have not given an opinion about Dorcs.Ai's inf.:rnal doctrine of squatter sovreiguty. If that thing is to be tolera. tod, all constitutional lanmliarks might as well be ubliterated." A word or two in response. Many weeks ago, this paper did denounce the opinions of the Illinois Senator, upon this very point, as "heretical." Since that time, we had been induced to think that those opinions wero by no moans so extremei as newspaper reporters had represented them ; and we were inclined to modify our judguent of that statesman's political soundness accordingly. Thus impressed, we penned this brief paragraph in our issue of the 2nd March: "By the way, the "Little Giant" is narrowing down his notion of squatter sovereignty to a very small point. lie declares that slaves are proper ty: and that slave-holders have a perfect right to take theut into any territory while it remains a territory: and, furthermore, that no territorial legislature has a right to inhibit slavery or to leg islate against it, for thatany such legislation would be uneonstitutional. He declares though, that it is entitled to no more special irotectiont than any other species of property. Now, if this implies that there is, under the organic act or elsewhere, any general ptrotection of all hinls of property (slavery included) the Illinois Senator's political mal-feasauce is not so heretical as was supposed." By developments which do not admit of doubt, it now appears that Mr. DOrOLAS was not misun derstood as to the extent of his opinions on the subject of popular sovreiguty. In other words, his Southern friends and would-be-supporters have failed to give any such coloring to his doctrine as can at all recommend it to Southern approbation. When Mr. Dovot,.s says that the people can drive slavery from a territory by unfriendly logis lation, injurious enactments,& c., and that Congress cannot interveno to prevent them, we hold that he is subverting the principles of our government in a most dangerous point. The doctrine ofons-in tervention, as estalblished by the Kansas-Nebraska Act, had directly in view this vital question of slavery, and iras understood to be an agreement that all citizens of the United States, with any and all kinds of property, should enter the territories with equal rights and remain there with equal rights until such time as the people, emerging into life as a State Sovroignty, should be recognized by Congress as the proper power to decide for itself this and all other questions of domestic polity. Then and then alone does there arise, on territori al ground, any authority of equal power with that of the Federal Govrnment,-any authority, in fact, which is not the mere creature of the Federal government and amenable to its controll in all cases of unconstitutional legislation. Then and then alone, does the authority exist tany t-here to legislates for or against African Slavery. If such be not the doctrine of non-intervention, then have many of us at the South sadly miscalculated the progress of sound principles as held forth by the Democracy of the Union. But others do not go qnito to the Doror.Ap ex treme of squatter sovreignty. They maintain that the territorial government has no power to legislate against slavery, by acts directly prohibitory; and yet, that it can withhold protective legislation to such an extent as will offectually exclude or ban ish slave-holders from the occupancy of the terri tories with their peculiar kind of labor. It is matter of deep regret to observo that even a few Sothern jnnrnals arc looking upon this position with somse dlegree of toleration. Hlow is it p.oeible that they caolo so ? Wha tever it be of gov ernmsien ssil influence that mnilitates n~rainst slavery in the territories, whether the actlion or the non-action of he territorial authosritiec, whether the enmity oir the neglect of the territirial otliciasls Z.-, do e iual insticed to all, it is alike violative of Southerni rights and in contrarention of constitutional justice. The South asks no special piritoetiont for thu property of' her citizens in the territories-that is, no fur ther protection than is vouchasa'.md to every other kind of property against injuries andl trespasses. But thsis last degree of protection she does claim under the broad aigis of the Constitution, and that son of hers who would yield this claim- for a mso ment is surely deluded by some strange infatua tion. We neither need nor ask that any new regulations or laws be instituted by the territorial overnments for the safety of our slaves. But we demand that our property in themt shall stand securely under the pirotection of the Courts and the oficors of the Courts. We insist upon our right to as prompt redlress in the tcrritories as we can obitain in the District of Columobia. We fur ther insist that any obstacle thrown in the way of this redtress by the territiarial legislature,-ay, more, that any omission of theirs by which this re .ress many be inmpared, demands the intervention oef Congress in our behalf; if an obstacle, it is ain unonstitutional act which ('ongre's is b~ound to reverse :if an omission, it is an unconsstitutional refusal of justice which Co.ngress is bound to reme dy. Admit that our appeal to the Couarts will he sulicienit in suchb cases. and Consgrcss many rest in pece. But if it be ntot soi, then Coingrres mutist intervene to mnake it so.

" The tear nust be curried into Afric." Having disposed of the general question as to the ability of the prosedt slave States of this Union, either alone, or in conjunction with Mexico and Central America to profitably subsist and em ploy millions more Africans for thousands of years, or until population shall have attained 100 or 200 to the square mile, let us now consider whether if the slave trade were revived, the insti tution of slavery could be established in our terri tories, or in the Free States. As heterodox as the followigg propositions are, I ntaintain, 1. That if the slave trade had never been closed none of the old Northern States, except may be those of New England, would have ever abolished slavery. 2. That perhaps none of the New Free States would have failed to establish it. 3. That if the slave trade were now revived slavery would be established in all or nearly all of both the Territories and Free States. As all the issues hero raised naturally run into each other, it would be better to examine them colleetively instead of in detail. In the first place, social ?henomena are governed by as fixed laws, as those of the physical world. Man with all his god-like faculties and fierce pas sionssa as tnuch an eveu quanutity as any other mobile element in nature and if left free to work out his happiness in his own way, he will seek it in the most obviaos paths, according to the rules proscribed by the 1)ivinu Creator. llence it is 'mnly in obedience to the laws of elimnatv that poipu lation is always impelled ouithward1 unless re strained, or direrledl by soime adverse itnfluence. The sp.ecifacatiun of a few simple facts will suffice to deotnnstrate this. Less labor ean be plerformted in a Northern latitude thana itn a Southern, because snow and extreme cold exist for many months of each year in high latitudes. The &amoe labor pro duces much less in a Northern climate than in a Southern one, on account of thme variety of pro ducts being stmaller and the season for their growth being so touch shorter in the North than in thoe South, atnd fromt many aother facts which will readi ly oeeur upon a little reflection.. Labor also cona sumes much more of what it does produce, in the North than in the South. It requires more food heacase a larger quantity is neco'vary to supp!y the fuel for animtal heat. Any one ents more during winter, than in, sutmner, even in the same latitude. The people of the tropies take hut two very light and mostly vegitalble taeals, in the twenty fuur hours. Labor neds thicker and warmer cloithing In a Northern climate. It also demands tnore fuel and better shelter against the unfriendly ele ments. In addlitio~n to all this man forever dcsires to inhabit a coutiry, where h~e cana fuel cenforta ble at all timos against inhospitable weather. The result is that although mtust iner- itn emigratin'g, theoretically, prefer to get a new hotme in the same latitude as their old oano, yet they uncoinsciuusly drift southward. i Thten as the time for labor is shorter, as the yield of laibor is le's-as the subasislanice of labour is monre expunsive-ais thte eletmenits urn more ut pronitous in a cohal climate than in a wrarmn, it is (only natural that poplulation.,houbl gravitrate Southward. Accordingly we find thtat the densely pupuus Entpires of iblontezumma and Atahualpa were neither of them niore than 21) degrees fr'om the Equatoar, and that the *'neaheirn parts iof Europe, as well as of Asia are now andl have alwnaa been thickly peopled, mueh tmore so than the Norilherna. .s man canniot sublsist except b'y time sweat of siae body's brow-as he strives to subbist, na well as enjoy theluxuries of life without any sweat oif his ('Wit brow-as power itself is sweet. andi slavery there fore the tiurial relatin, which lie will Impoee upon all thme labor be enn conitrol, it folloiws that population will nut only move $,;nthwarid hot that it will als'. e.-tabli.-h and' preserie sinvsry there outil the inittutioni ceases to bie profitabIlce-dlnft the excess of pir'ductiuiu ovar :tlsista~nee is soi small as to make the sthavo vaineLle~s, when, emaei~. pation will either taike phlare or the slaive will bec carried Northward where his labor will produce more pralit in a less thickly se'tled ciuntry. It was by) the operlati.'n of thecre enuises that emianciptation, air abo.lishmont of whFite slavery comimetnced in thu South of~ Euriope and tmioveid Northward. But in the Utilted Stas-this nats. ral law of mtigration-this law of slavery in oilher words has beeti reversedl by enmancipatioln en mening in the North, whence it is muovitng Sooth ward with ailiost irresistable piressuire, which shows that thtero is somecting wrong-thtat the laws which have governedl slavery from the earli est recorded time have b'een derainged in some way, and I cootenid that thu deranging cause has been the closing of the slave trade in 18sS. But while slavery and emlancipiation have boith heen umoring Souithwardl, white pp'ulation lit least as far as forcign enmiration is euneiurned may be said to hiavo bein motiving X',rthcoird, again rever sing the universal law oif moigraltion to countries where land is bo:h cheap and fertile. Not only has the huge wave of the European Exodus rolled into the North to swell her population, but the nautices of the North have also been driven back or damned up, in face of the fact, that if only eual pecuniary and palitlcal inducements are offered in a Northern and Southern clime, the latter will always be preferred, on account of its greater ge nility. I contend that this anomaly in the move ments of white population In the United States has likewise hber- brought about by the abolish ment of the slave trade. Previouas to the political explosion known as the French Revailution, foreign emigrants, eleted to sttle at the South, bieenuse they could thien get nt only a geniiil cliate~, but amo rich and cheap lsaud, together with cheapi etore lut~or.

But when the wars of Europe endead, white ei-i tiationt to the South from either Euroape or ~ie oirth enided also.

Lioston amd Philatdelpla. Professor Maury has accounted for the sulddn and entiro transfer of ,Nanufactures, hipping und commerce from Char edton to the North, by Dr. Franklin's discovery )f the Gulf Stream, as a means of bhortening the "oyage between Europo and New York, but with ,l dellfrence to the Great Geographer of the Sea, [ must be permitted to say that I think it was :aused wore by the closing of the slave trade than by the opening of the Ga.f Stream. If the closing of the slave trade or some other great disturbing cause did not produce it, how else inn the anomalous fact be explained of large Cities like Now York and Boston springing up in the North before they exist in the South of a country aving the same laws inhabited by the samne race evury foot of whose territory in North of all the great Cities in Asia and whose Southernmost isnth. Drmal line on the Atlantic coast is nearly the same as that of the mighty Capitals about the Meditera. nean Sea. Where were the Mumuatnoth Cities of Europe and Asia, when history first mentions them? Were they in the South or North ? In Italy and Greece, or in Germany and Russia? In India and Asia Minor, or in Tartary and Siberia? Where were the Emporiums of this Western world, -hen Coolumbus discovered it! Were they in Mexico and Peru, or in CsanydaL a'nd Paataglonia? BOston has no better harbor than Norfolk, New York no better one than Beaufort, Philadelphia no better one than Charleston, Brunswick or Fernandina. Then why should white population nmove North ward here, instead of Southward? Why should emancilaation move Southward here, instead of Northward ? Why should Metropolices rise in the North here before they appear in the South, contrary to every precedent. if there has not been some all powerful agency at work to reverse the laws of uature-to distort the normal novenients of society in aggregating population and in organ izing labor ? The suppression of the Plave trade has not only transfered the scepter of numbers and of diversified industry to the North, but it has like. wise begotten the abolition sentiment of this coun try as wall as the sectional protective Tariff policy of our Government. Let us trace a few if the land marks which the closing of the slave trarle has produced in working out these deplorable re suits. The evidences which I shall offer will not be far fetched. They are within the comprehen sion of the simplest mnind, which can follow the most obvious connection of cause and effect. I respectfully ask the people of Charleston particu larly to lend me their attention upon the commer cial bearing of the subject. SCIPIO. 6-0-4 For the Advertiser. A Correction--Revised Translation. MN. EtrIon :-I have been asked several times during the past week many questions concerning the Revision of our translation of the Bible now in progress. I have answered as best I coull. But when I have been assured that the Methodist Church, of which I have the honor of being an Elder in the Ministry, has a part in this work, I deem it necessary, in this public way, to proclaim that this is not the fact. The Methodist Church has nothing to do with it. It has been urged that we have men engaged in the work who are our members, to which I answer: We may find, if we were to look closely, I have no doubt, amongst a million and half of members in our Church, some in the Penitentiary for ma king counterfeit money-or in Mason lodges-or in the Cabinet of the President of the United States ; but the Church did not send them there no more to one than the other. A connexional Church like ours can only be compromised by her Reprosentative, and she has none in any of thcse distinguished places, for good or for evil, of her appointing.
