To Up-Country Planters. The Charleston Courier recently published the following brief appeal, which we now extend as in duty bound, and respectfully urge such of our planters as can respond to do so at once. There is no cash required in this transaction, nor much trouble, especially where plantations are within eight or ten miles of a railroad depot. Whoever is blessed with a super-abundance of wheat or flour, will here Bud a special opportunity for the exercise of his benevolence if he has any. Bread stuffs are greatly needed by the sufferers, particu larly flour. Millers, as much as planters, might embrace this opportunity of relieving distress. Mark the appeal: As APaiL To Tia Ur-CouxvnY PLAxTERs OF SOcYX CAnoLIA.-The recent calamitous fire has reduced to want hundreds of families. Even our wealthy citizens are now unable to do much to relieve the general distress. We know you plan ters have no money to spare, but you have an abundance of provisions. Send what you can spare to our Relief Committees. It will be needed to feed our poor who have lost everything, and we believe our Railroads will bring all you send free of charge. We.know this appeal will not be in vain. W. K. D. The Military Force'of Virginia. The Adjutant-General of Virginia, in his annu al report to the Governor, estimates the number of men in the State subject to militia duty at 1S0, 900 to 140;000, notwithstanding the, defection and treachery of a large section. Of those below IS and above 45 years of age, and consequently ox empt, many are now in active service, and many more will be there if needed. There are now in commission, including those in active service, 131 troops of cavalry, 108 cor:panies of artillery, 404 of light infantry, 277 of riflemen; and the State has now in the service of the Confederate Gov ernment about 68 regiments of volunteers, inclu ding cavalry, artillery, light infantry, and rifle men, one battalion of enlisted men, and one brig ade of militia of the line. The issues of arms and ordnance stores of every description have far ex ceeded the supposed resources of the State, and have absorbed almost the entire contents of both the depot at the armory at Richmond and that at Lexington. During the last twelve months there were issued from the State Ordnance Department at Richmond 283 pieces of artillery, 62,402 muskets, 3,22S ri fles, '43 carbines, 114 musketoons, 2,106 pistols, and 5,927 swords, besides a vast amount of am munition and accoutrements of every description. The Old Dominion makes a show worthy of her self. This is eulogy enough.

The patrons of this paper thus far stand firmly up to us in our efforts to weather the tremeudous politieal tempest that sweeps over the land ; Nor d have we any fears that they will fail us in the c hour of our utmost need. Edgefield is the largest district in the State after Charleston, with a peo ple of high spirit, marked intelligence and honest f district pride. It will be for them to say whether f their paper shall hold its course with a proud consciousness that it rests upon as enlightened a public opinion as any other journal in the South, or shall languish from want of sufficient suste- q nance. We anticipate no serious difficulties if our bonn fde Edgefeld list shall lend their tid proupt- c ly as heretofore. If we make but little, it will t give us no great concern so both ends barely meet. But we do earnestly desire that the Edgefield pa per may prove one of the journals that shall sur vive the present days of trouble. It were idle to t say that this is a purely disinterested wish on our part; for, in truth, our welfare and that of our t families is much involved with the Advertiser's t existence. Yet, merely as a matter of district v pride, we would do much and even sacraftice some thing to have it said at the close of this war, that our good old district, amid all the trials of the a period and all tho calls of the country, also stood 1 by its local journal throughout. To this end, we now address a most respectful request to our old friends to think of this mutt"r, to consider the ito- 1 portance of a weekly local paper to the wives. daughters, mothers and si.ters of our two thous and soldiers in the field, to reflect upon the neces city of a continuance of the district advertising sheet, to weigh also the sentiment of district credit above alluded to, and to act. accordingly. For twelve long years we have held weekly converse f with you, and if there have been any circumstan ces of that intercourse that gave dissatisfaction to a single reader, no one regrets it so much as we. x The days of peril and of trial are conic, and shall t that intercourse cease by your neglect ? Not for a single moment do we entertain the apprehun sion. Meet us as of yore with the smile of u couragement, and the still small pay of the prin ter, and we shall be yours to command:iit in adver sity tis in prosperity. Final Notice !
