On Friday last, the Sunday Schools of our vil Slage met at Odd Fellows a& Masonie Hall in eels ebration of'their complete organization and growing success.

His views had been looked for by all present with high expectation. But it was growing late, and the picnic was waiting in rthe distance, and a dark cloud was hastening up from the west.

It is with unfeigned morrow that we announce to our readers the death of Chancellor Gzonon W. DAnoAN, which event occurred in Columbia S. C., on the 13th instant. He died in the 59th year of his age, and in the 12th year of his ser vices upon the Chancery Bench of South Caro lina. The deceased was a just Judge in the fullist acceptation of that form as applied to man. Nor was he less faithful, or less discriminating, than just. lie was beloved as well as respected bythe whole bar of his State, and no public man perhaps could claim to be a more universal favorite with the people of South Carolina. He falls, lamented by all. Scarcely shall his place be supplied with as guid a man or as able a Chancellor. Long be the memory of his virtues cherished ! Ever be his mamo enrolled among the distinguished war thies of our State, as a model and a light for his successors! The honored place which know him so lately shall know him no more forever. He is gone to appear in judgment before the High Chan cery of Heaven. May he already have found, that his earthly petitions for Mercy and for Pardon have been duly entered by the Recording Angel in the Great Book of Eternity, and that a decree in his favor (with deep reverence be it said) has been pronounced by the Almighty Judge of all things. The Darlington Flag,-the gallant newspaper exponent of the District with which the deceased was identified in life,-has the right to speak here wv his ne.rtfricad. Ponder the feeling and noble tribute which that journal thus lays upon his bier: " Correct in reasoning, quick in conception and deeply versed in the law, his decisions were always regarded by legal gentlemen with much respect, and they ever gave evidence of much thought and bore upon them the impress of a noble intellect. If he was respected for his ability, he was loved for his amiable disposition and courteous deport ment, which were exhibited to every one who ap proached him in his offici-al capacity. Honorable elevation did nut work i hin forgetfulness of the proprieties of life ; thert Vms no austerity, no false pride, no assumed superiority about him: he was aooessible at all hours, and to every one having business to transact with him. Because of these characteristies, which are too seldom found with one occupying his position, he was the Lawyer's favorite among the Chancellors, and now, that the friends of his boyhood and the acquaintances of his riper years join his relatives in weeping over his remains, there are many throughout the State, who have known him only in his official capacity, who will claim the privilege of joining them in their lamentations. It is as a private individual that those who knew him beast, will most delight-to think of him. He was gentle in disposition, easy and affable in manners, courteous and polite in deportment; and in generosity, he was the very embodiment of all that is honorable; he was, indeed, one of whom it may be truly said: " His life wAs gentle; and the elements So mix'd in him, that nature might stand up, And say to all the world, This toe a man /" Reaching him, the cry of distress never fell upon deafened ears; his heart was ever open to the wants of others, and his hand ever ready to sup ply them. However he may be honored for his intellect, and loved for his virtues, this must be his most worthy epitaph-" He was a friend to the poor, a physician to the sick and a father to the orphan." We have in justice to our oWn feelings, said thus much; we leave it to others who knew the subject of this notice better than ourself, to do jestice to his worth and properly to record his many virtues." gf xare requested to announoe that the Rev.

He . regarded it a happy substitute novel-reading and other kinds of literary com ition designed on chiefly to amuse and gratify thilmagination. It was the nature of youth, he tho f, to look out for mental food of an enterta ~iAb et|r,suited to its developing capabilities. If caught by the absorbing webs of fiction whiohabound in our gt literature, there was danger of injurious excess in m the indulgence. There were minds fortified th within themselves to guard a at this indul- if genoe. But there were also many unable to do so. 10 For these last, he thought the newpper an admi. bo rable resort. Its weekly freight of news and gen eral intelligence supplied to the youngmind acom bination of entertainment andinformition well ul ted to its awakening search after novelty, andyet not in so captivating a garb as to draw it too much from strict educational duties. tb W.e have often thought of these views of Mr. CALROUN, once expressed to our humblb self; and we can say with truth that we haveseldom glanced over the columns of the newspaper, however lowly its pretensions, without finding abundant material to sustain the soundness of his sentiments. d But the newsapaper is much more than- this. Under Its generic name, tie press, It has well been termed In this free country the palladium of our liberties. It is the vehiele, and the only available vehicle, if free discussion on alf questions that a arise Implicating the government and the govern ed. It is the medium of giving utteranee to that com populi, out of which truth is generally evolved h in the result. It Is through this instrumentality , that the pro and the con of overy political dispute are laid bare to the Intelligence of the sovreign t people by their respective advocates. It is indeed a the great record of the pleas and proceedings of all public causes, necessary to be heard and under stood by every free community, ina'rder that their decree in the promises may be onligstened and just. That there is often egregious error in these dis- b cussions, no one wilf affect to deny. But the machinery has within itself the umans of correc.: tion. If by the press an erroneoms principle Is announced, by the press also It is posed to pro , per oondemaation. If there be aq exremence on - the body politic, by the press is icaunterised and enred. If there be an issue raised involving the a public weal, the press it is that eaniassesits every bearing and estimates it in all iti probable and t possible results. What though bsurdities and c truths are alike the fruits of this free dishsusIon I Such are the fruits of all human orgumentatlon. Yet here, as in all the strifes of ma, the saving conclusion is notbe denied, that "i the multitude of counsel there is wisdom." Again, the-neteepaper, slurred asi imes is by public functionaries, is one o of con srators of law and order In the S Is quick exposure of crime, renders it "a Aerrto evil doers." Not only by its ready ~u~irt of thei powers that be, is it a friend to "jultloe; but it is I equally so In Its watchful rces of unlawful practices in their incipiency, a~ before those 1 practices have become matter of j dicial investi gation. It is a censor morasm havil such a posi tion of dependence upon the good and true, that It dare not use Its power otherwise than in the denouncement of social evil. Theramay be ocea sicnal exceptions to this feature of 11enewspaper'e usefulne's ; hut the general fact eanmot be doubted hy any one conversant with the illigent and Further, the nerrape - ech'flT which nations c ior* people know what .L......-Moes *.. terald of all that ..d.. .'

I ers,-and how would itstand with the immense and I ramilel conamercial relations of the nineteenth a cntury ? But, further still, we resolutely occupy the ground..that the naepaper, however trifling and I unworthy it may be esteemed by the pulpit, Is at least not aidverse in its tendencies to the spread and triumph of the Messiah's kingdom. If we thought it was, we would at once drop the implements anid the name of our vocation, and abjure it forever.a lut we cannot see it in any such light. That it I frequently sins, in opinion and practice, 'against the tenets of Christianity, we muny not presume tot disbelieve, But "to err Is human,"-and wh, shll entirely clear his skirts of offence ? Yet we s believe aud maintain, that the newspraper glories in its Christian surroundings and is over ready to I lnd its nmsistamnce '(unmanctified though It be) to s the advancemnent of the Great Christian Cause.t We further believe, that thme nesapaper is, In hun drds of iustances besides the religious press, held o and directed by men who acek, as opportunity of. t fers, to adld the mito of their influence to the fur- 'a therance of pure and unefeiledt religions. In almost t: al cases, whether thus direted or dtherwiLse, the bi newpaper, at least iu free America, stands in holy a awe of sacred things ; and if It is net commonly S found as a sentry upon the battleinents of the ft Church, it never dares to array itself against that a Divine Institution. S Our conclusion is, that thme naewepaper, whether o considered socially, civilly or politically,hban power 1 for good, and exerts that plowor for good ;-and, 1 furthermore, that next to such hooks and publica- tl tions as are professedly rnligious, It forms the most E useful and safest reading on earth. s We are wellaware that this cursory glance at the p subjet in hand by no means doeait justces. We are ce aware that the neswspaper, as an advertising medi- 1i un, as a friend to agriculture, as a repository of I historical truth, as an advocate of educational~ u advancemnent, an a good Sasiartanm In continually ei bringing to light things new and old for the bene- w fit of suffering humanity, might be further held tI up in glowing colors of usefulness and charity. 1A But fro only designed to Indite a few brief thoughts 1 in defene of our vocation's dignily and value,- mu and this, because of havinmg hoard within a mouth, from influential and esteeumed quarte.rs,.ecertain incidental slurs well calculated to diminish the m< respect of the intelligent and the pious for our t noble art and Its untiring labors.

Av a meeting of the Bar in this place on Tues Ly, the 21st inst., Hon. J. P. CARRoLL In the Chair, e following Resolutions were presented in feel g terms by Mr. JoasRa Ausisr, and unanimous. adopted: WhsuxAs, In the death of the late Chancellor AnoiA, which occurred in Columbia on the morn g of the 13th inst., the Chancery Bench has been iprived of one of its chief ornaments,' and the te of an able, devoted and faithful public ser mt. And, Wsmnais, the decease of such a fano Dnary is the more deeply felt and deplored from e beauty and consistency of his life, displaying i it did the noblest pattern of every manly virtue, ad furnishing an example of industry and energy, ell onleulated to encourage and stimulate to the Ighost attainments, the generous minded of all asses. Having been sent to the South Carolina ollege early in life, he first exhibited there, those sits A character, which afterwards ripened into > much usefulness, and made him one of the most ,sted men in South Carolina. The profession he sose, was of course the law, which he practiced ccessfully in Darlington and the adjoining Dis lets. His acquirements so signally distinguished im, that he soon made property and " troops of iends." He was twice elected Commissioner in |quity of Darlington District. He was sent to e Senate from that District, and honored In every ay, by the people to whom his first alleglance as due. In the ezoiting controversy of Nullifi tion, he bore an active part in favor of resistance, d in the struggle of Secession, he stood fast by is same glorious colors. Indeed his heart was as rue as steel in the discharge of all the obligations f a citisen ; and his principles and motives of ae Ion were so upright that they were never inpugned y the voice of detraction, or by the breath of sus lelon, even amid the most angry political conten. ons. Therefore, ReRolved, That the death of Chancellor DAn AN is one of the heaviest calamities that could e inflicted upon the Bench and Bar of South arolina. Resolued, That we appreciate his loss ashbe ex ingushmnent of one of the greatest lights of learn ng, and one of the best and faires judicial minds hat have illuminated and adorndi our annals. Rlesoledr, That the widows and orphans have ust one of their surest friends. 1Resoired, That in the demise of Chancellor )AnoAy, the Councils of the State have been be aft of the firmest advocate of' liberty-virtue of a ioble examplar, and social life of its happiest Ul ntration. Recolved, That we sincerely sympathize with the 'mly and friends of the deceased; and make blic these Resolutions in testimony of our con lolence In their afflicetions. On moton. rue. 'A.

Enrron: You seem to be partial to the ino Woods, 1. e, you seldom extend your travels nto the Clay lands, where we know you have a rent many more friends and admirers than in the ie Wooda. We hear you say that such an one an the best Corn, another the best Cotton you ae secn ; when lo ! and behold ! your observa ions have been confined to the Pine woods. Now, I. Enivia, we (do not think that exactly right ; a t goes abroad that the pine woods of Edge eld make up the best part of it. What do you uppose travellers on the S. C. Rail Road from iken to Hamburg will think of us ? Edgefield xtends from Aikeli to Ninety-eix, and from the avannah to the Saluda; and in her boundaries re nearly all the fine lands known as " Cam ridge Land,"-a few plantations being on the bbeville side. Now, Ma. Earvon, we of Cam ridge would like to have a hearing occasionally; nil though you have often been invited to see us nl as often declined, we still extend the invi tion. If you will come, we will treat you to a arbecue or two, and show you that we also have >me corn and cotton that might compare with ,at of the Pine Woods. In fact, Mr. EDITOn, we raise all the products the Pine woods, vis: Corn, Cotton, Rye, Peas ai Potatoes; then we raise Wheat, Oats, Barley ad somec Pumpkmn. So you see we are ahead of ae'PIne woods in raiety of products. Our am itious pjlanters.are also turning their attention to iother important crop !-You recollect a former peaker of the U.' S. Houso of Representatives, a w years ago, addressed a Wall Street audience adl asserted that the " Hay Crop" of the United ttes was more important than the Cotton crop Ethe Southern States. Boon after, the paulo of 157 occurred, and the Hay crop was no where. t where wa Cotton? Ainy ! But Mr. EDivon, Is Panic is over, and War prevails in Europe. ig Cotton has gone down and Hay up. Ergo, go now for Hay ; and never was there a better ospect in the Cambridge neighborhood for a good op ol7 it.! Go where you will, In the Cotton, or the Corn, it is all the same ; the grass is truly urishing ; uplands looks like meadows; and If can have sunshine in August to save It, what ops of Hay may be made I Now I know you ill say, I wonder who has the beet grass crop up re ? All that I can answer is, Come up and see.I 'ethinkcs, howerer, this will be your conclusion: here all are so fine, it would be hard to deter io to whom the premium belongs. - Yours, &ce., CAMBRIDGE.

He is a native of our District, I l one of whom she may be proud to put in the yponsible office of " teaching the young idea how shoot." The uday was delightfully pleasant, and Its doings S l sayings at the Academy, were even mote so.1 le examination was clove and impartial, and the ails generally, manifested considerable apteess d profciency in thae brances upon which they re examined, Quite a number of compositions re read ; these weare well regeived~.

This closed the Sercises of the head for the day; and then it was llowed to the young people, to speak with eyes nd feel with hearts that hung gaing upon the nchanting beauties of " the female form divine." L free talk ensued, which ran into a free dance, if was in a school house, whore exercise hadjust losed with singing and prayer. ' A thousand hearts beat happily; and when fusia arose with its voluptuous swell, rft eyes looked lore to eyes which spake again, Lnd all went nerily as a marriage bell."

" The four Arst acts already past, A fifth shall close the drama with the day; Tinae's noblest ofering is the last." 'his was the great day of the feast with.all partial. ,ants. For the sake of a name, we called it a ishing party; but all were willing that the fish hould grow longer, before disturbing their peace with a hook. There were too much beauty and legance ashore for the thought of any thing else aut to do homage to them. We neither fished nor anaed. Nothing but the gentle converse of con inial spirits was permitted to intrude upon the iocial moments of the day. Nothing was wanting to administer to the enjoy ne of the oceasion.
