WEDNESDAY, JUNE 1, 1839. ;&0- Owing to the crowded stat., of our advor. ting columns this week, we tire uccessarily com pelled to defer the publication of APrepo," and other original articlea until the next Issue. Cool. Fahrenheit has stood at 600 in the early morn for some days past. War News. Since our last, the news from the seat of war has been limited and meagre. Such as it is, the reader will And its sum and substance in other columns. The Wheat Crops. The accounts of the wheat crop, brought in by candidates, are very cheering. Although the rust has done some injury in a few localities, yet the prespect, generally, is thought to be rather better than It has been for some years past. This is truly cause of rejoicing. Infurutatione As the cry is pretty universal for corn, meal, tour &c., we wish to tell everybody that an al un dance of all these artiOles,.and of superior quality, can be had at Mr. S. W. NeuoLrsoN's, nine mllet above this place; and his prices are not such as t, scare away customers. Neither are his terms either tight or urgent. He proposes to sell 1000 bushels of corn out of what he has on hand, and does not intend, war or no war, to ask more than a dollar per bushel. So with his other commodi ties. Professor Ry~an. This favorite lecturer is at present in our town. and 1.< entertaining our citizens with his interesting elodutionary powers. We regret that the professor happens amongst us at a time when several causes combine to make his audiences smaller than touldi be desired. He is spoken of in the we-st favorable terms by the press wherever he has been. Those who have beard him here testify to the correctness of the general opinion in regard to his merits as a lecturer and portrayer of character. PaitoFEsou RYAN lectured Monday night for the first time in this village, and will repent his enter tainmunt this (Tuesday) evening, and again to morrow evening. Those who desire to be amused after a pleasant and rational manner, may have that gratification by attending his entertainment, in the Court House. Escaped. Three prieoners escaped irom our jail during Sat urday night last; They were the two Virginia Joysscs Impil!od for horse-stealing, and JAs 3n3 Pants. They efected their self-deliverance by means of a small surgical knife and a file with which they cut the bare of a window until they could get out, letting themselves down to the jail-yard by meant of their quilts and blankets. It will be seen that our.jailor has offered a handsome reward for their re-capture. The general expression seems to be "let them go provided they will stay gons." " The Field and Fireside." This new paper is out. It is a large and beauti ful publication. It promises to be a most inter esting literary and agricultural journal. The first number containa many good, and useful, and amusing things. We thought this paper would be .Numbe~r One in every respect, and we are not mi. - taten. Success to its energetic conductors.

All who wish afac simile likeness of this beloved and il: lastrious man (and what true Southerner does not?) can be accommodated by application to Mr. Boaxr of Washington City. Mr. Ramsay, at the Post Office in this Village, has on band a number of these engravings, which ho is framing and selling at $2 per copy. The Penadleton Messenger. We regret to observe in the last number of this very spiritod sheet the following : ."*With 'this issue closes the first and last volumne of the Pendletom Jfeseunger. One year ago with what we considered flatering prospects, we, with fe.-ling of no ordinary embarrassment, donned the E litorial garb, and, as it has proved to us, the "'Editorial harness." The week that our paper was5 frat issued was also the week when the " Tri weekly" railway first commenced its trips; we thmen predicted a brilliant future for old Pendleton; the prediction, we must acknowledge, was false, for no place can expect to be brilliant in the future, that cannot supp~ort one paper. Seven or eight years ago the lamented Burt was compelled to sell the paper for want of support; to-day we close for the same reason, but it will ouly be for a short time. We hope, under better auspices, to start the publication under a new name, at the rising and flourishing town of Hartwell, Georgia." Found it Out. By the kindness of Mrs...C.

It is a magnificent flower of the Lily family, as the splendid specimen be fore us shows. A bunch of Irnmorrelles and a sprig of Ponciana, beth rare and admirable plants, accompanied the Gladiolus to our sanctum. We are the more obliged to Mrs. B. for her remem branee of us, as It discloses the name of a choice lower in our own garden which we confess not to have knowa before as the Gladiolus.

We find pleasure in copying the following brief :xtract from the letter of an Augusta correspon .lent, in regarit to that admirably kept establish ment, the A g ita Hotel : "I am stopping at the Augusta, one of the best hotels it has been my lot to sojourn in through a long experience.

The great and renowned Erxasox has truthful ly said: "Show us an intelligent family of boys and girls, and we shall show you a family where news papers and periodicals are plentiful. Nobody who has been without these silent private tutors can know their educating power for good or evil. Have you never thought of the innumerable topics of discussion which they suggest at the breakfast table, the important public measures with which, thus early, our children become familiarly acquain ted: great philanthropic questions of the day, to which unconsciously their attention is awakened, and the general spirit of intelligence which is evoked by these quiet visitors ? Anvthing that makes home ple r ant cheerful and chatty, thina the haunts of vice,-and the thousand and one avenues of temptation should certainly be regarded, when we consider its Influenve on the minds of the young, as a great moral and social blessing. A Penitentiary. The voice of the people of F oith Carolinsa appears evidently to favor the establishment of a Peniten tiary. We judge by the presentments of Grand Juries and by the expre.esions of the Press. The feeling is, that there Is a class of crimeiwhich go half-punished if' not scott-free under our present criminal system. Rather than hang for certain high misdemeanors, our juries, thinking that de gree of punishment a little too severe, prefer often to turn loose upon the community characters of the most vicious stamp. With a penitentiary, this defect would Ie remedied, and a way he pro idedl by which juries e..uld releive the counstry ot evil doers, without the extreme penalty of the gallows.

It is known that to erect the New State House a large force of hands has been organized, with every mechanicsl appliance necessary to the successful prosecution to comple tion of that great work. These very same arrange mente could he used in the construction 9f a peni tetiary, and at less cost than on any subsequent occasion, when disbanded andl renmoved. The re ommendation was, we believe, made to the Leg islature by Gen. Jones, the Superintendent of the New State House, but no attention was bestowed upon the subject. Female Benevolence. Many charitable ladies of New York have com bined to establish, and have actually instituted, a " Woman's Hoispital Association," for the benefit of the suffering thousasnds in that over-crowded metropolis. We now, for the first time, begin to appreciate a sentiment once given in this place at a public dinner, by an individual of a peculiar mental east. It was this : " The widow, the wife, and the maid: Bright luminaries in the constellation of national sympa thy; scattering forever their varied condolence ever the land and the sea,-the sick, the dying, and the dead."

A pleasant drive of three hours the other morn ing, Mr. Em'rron, brought me and my friend, M. C. B., to Mt. Willing. This wus a place of some importance many years ago; an active trade was carried on there, and this was the chief pocint for the bausiness of Saluda: eight hundred votes were polled there, ad the names of some of our first men arc intimately associated with its history. Around it cluster some pleasing reminisences of days gone by. It is now almost in ruins, and its only attraction Is the Batalion Muster which occurs there every Spring. We attended the one which came off there on Saturday, and were agreeably surprised at the promaptness and precision with which the various evolutions were performed. We have attended many Battalion Musters In Richland and other Districts, and are compelled to say, this was ue of the best we have ever seen. Much credit is due to both oeers and men. Col.

Louis Napoleon's Plan of Finance. The advices by the Vigo show the plan that Louis Napoleon has determined to adopt in his financial policy, and it forms a strong contrast to that of Austria, which we recently exposed. He neither seiles the specie re sorve of the bank, nor- issues irredeemable paper, like Francis Joseph, nor do is he follow the practice of England, and call the great bankers to his side to aid him in raising money. But he has determined to open a natioual subscription to a loan of one hundred millions of dollars. .This is the same plan which he successfully pursued in 1855 for the loans raised to prosecute the Crimean war. At that time the bankers were greatly angered at losing their customary commissions and profits, and loudly prophesied that the new stock had been taken by thousands of people who could not carry it, and who would soon have to throw it upon the market, th-e causing a decline and ruining the creditof the Goveri.. ment. But nothing of the kind occurred; and now we find the French Emperor adopting the same plan upon a much larger so.de. Such a step demonstrates his confidence in the pecuniary resources of France, and the policy will no have small political effect on the pros. pects of the Napoleonic dynasty. There is no stauncher supporter of the throne or more deponent enemy of revolution than the holder of government stocks, The very debts of the nation are converted into bulwarks of order, as is the case in England. In creating a large public debt, held in smill sums among the minor capitalists, Lxuis Napoleon will erect a strong defence of~ his throne, so long as he does not go bntyond the ability of France to par theinterest withou~t oppressive taxation. The high war feve~r that now has possession of the French people will no doubt lead them to take the loan with th~e same avidlity that they did that for the war in the Crimea.-New York Herald.

COMMERCIAL. HAMBURG, May 30, 1859. Mr. Erioon: Our cotton market has been per feetly dead for the past week, and speculatori are not disposed to operate at present prices, uileis t1t1y could hear of sone reasonable prospect of peace form the other side of the water. The last iccounts brought by the Asia (which were only two days later,)- did no good. Better accounts will have to come or the market will go much lower. I can hardly give you correct quotations, but I will say from 7 to 101 cents. Respectfully, yours, H. NEW YORK, May 28.
