After a long and dreary Night, we welcome Thee with enthusi asm, [j j i i . . : As Thou in all thy stately majesty, Doth'climb the Eastern hills, on thy gen erous ; W0_!.?3 Mission to impart thy golden light unto All nature. Methinks I see tho smiling Infant, as it nestles in its mother's . Arras, clap its t? ny hands, and gaze upon Thee with rapturous admiration of thy Regal splendor. Methinks I see the Aspiring youth, as he goes forth to his Daily task, greet Thee with a welcome smile. Methinks I see the silver haired man Of the world gaze upon Thee with a heaving Bosom, as he-thinks him of his misspent Days, and that he will not bo allowed much *' Longer to enjoy thy golden light. Methinks I seo the hoary haired veteran Of the cross, gaze upon Thee with Beatific delight, as he thinks him Of the golden City of sweet refuge, Of which Thou, by thy magnificent Splendor, doth remind him. ?** We view Thee, as Thou doth climb the gray vault above, As a might}' giant, toiling thy way up To tho vast done of heavon, nntlfThon Hast reached thy most exalted-throne, And wo view Thee in thy meridian Splendor; then indeed art Thou sublime ! Thou art the light of the world, the god of Splendor-endeared to me by a thousand Recollections of childhood's happy days, When in thy golden light I have " chased the liright-wing'd butterfly, or gamboled with the Lambs upon tho hillside." Wherever I Wandered, whether over wood or plain, Whether in the valley, or upon the Mountain top, Thou hast ever been present With thy pure light, to guide my way ward steps.

And sang their sweetest hymns of praise To a wond r working God. Methinks I ?See them, in solemn awe, bend their Starry-crownod heads over the Battlements of heaven, to view the Beauty, grandeur, and magnificence Of tho lamp of the universe. We uow watch Thee, as Thou dost take thy Downward mardi in conscious power, And hide Thyself behind the Western Hills; then a feeling of desolation Pervades our hearts-a feeling of . Loneliness which we cannot Overcome-and we turn us to our Couch to dream of Thee as the 11 Brightest gem of creation. I < For the Advertiser. MR. EDITOR,-I noticed a few months p.go.a publication in your valuable pa per, signed " Facts and Fancy." He had a good deal to say about Shatterlield Court House, and vicinity t somewhat inclined to make light of its prosperity, its good people, tte. fi Shatterfiold" gavo him a sky-rocket, aud a bomb-shell or two, and a lew canister shots, that so nearly killed him, that I have 1 ? heard a word from him since. Mr. Editor, if you know anything of his whereabouts, please inforui him that Shatterlield is all right; her improvements >ure steadily gaining ground; a brand new giu house has been erectod, and run by water power; also a steam mill has been put up by Hutchinson <fc Devore, in the piuey woods of that locality, which makes M lumber howl." But Mr. Editor, let us turn our atten tion to a more thriving place and section than thatof " Shatterfield Court Houso," viz: Kirksey's X Roads and vicinity, and when I have gotten through please lot " Facts and Faucy" take a peep at the picture,-if he can be found. Kirksey's X Roads is in the centre of Gray Jflpv n ship-a place that has niany good deeds, and there ayemany who cherish fond recol lections of tljat dear section, though they live in other States.. It has giyen birth tq many valiant soldiers, both in the Statp and Church,-and to-day it stands first jn the ranks of civilization, conservative in principle, and ti rm in politics, as ?bown by the J?te ballot box, when com pared to any other Township in the County. We aro more free from tho power of Radicals and Scalawags, per haps, than any other section in the State, since thc death of old man " Heck." i Now for her improvements and inter nal resources. There is the Jug Factory, run by Bodie <fc Co. It is of old standing, and for twenty years has been in success fill operation, turning out thousands of gallons of stoup ware every year ; aud by the way, the best made in the South-, ern StateB, without any exception, (They have the very best material-durable, nico an d tau cy. ' The firm has also extended their business luto that of making bricks -good, hard and durable. They are. burnt in tlie furnace with the ware, \ and are a decided improvement on the brick cmestion. Near by the Factory is a large store run by 0; Sheppard <fc Co.,-that popular man and Mason, and our " Dis- 1 triot Deputy Grand Master." If I you, want good and cheap bargains call on ' them. Their stock is largo and fine, recently filled to the utmost. One mile North of tltis, is the colebrated Steam Mill of Trapp, Brooks ?fe Co., whodkve r also a largo Store. There are s&eral Work Shops in- our midst-manufactu ring wagons, buggies, ?fcc. We also have a Masonic Lodge,r$! riendsbip-which is said, by good judgeiL to be one of the brightest in the county. We have.sev eral Churches near byj(i with good preach ing. Large congregabais, ?nd pions and devoted Chris?ans-aplace much desired andapprised by goodwind honest.people.

'; Tbe United States Supreme Court to day decided"the case of the State of South Carolina, exrelatione T. D. Wagner against Stoll, county treasurer, on appeal from tlie . Supreme.Court of the State, involving ' the question of the validity of the issues oj the Bank of the. State during the war. j Ihe charter of the bank, framed in 18?2, I provided that the issues should be receiv- j able for taxes ; but the county treasurer' refased to receive them on the ground that they were issued m aid of the rebellion, i and rere; therefore, no tender. The court Below sustained the objection, and the judg- i ment was for the treasurer. On a former : argument of thc case in- this court that . judgment was affirmed, bul, upon a rear- j gument, had atthis term,;therei3 a change of opinion, and the judgment ia now re- j versed, the same judge .writing the opin- j ion. The court holds, 'iha%:,:as the faith : ot the State was pledged for these bills, j the holders were entitled to rely upon'that I credit and to its protection. The credit' of the State could not be withdrawn with- !' out an open and clear declaration to that effect, ami such: a declaration wa3 not made ' until 18G8, by the repeal of the charter, which was too Jaie to render the bills no : tender in the present case. "Celestial Aristocrats." , In an assault upon'the Chronicle Ut Sen tinel, because it dared to speak bf the atrocious system of robbery which has ? been inaugurated and carried out by. the ; so-called State government of South Car-1 olina, the Columbia - Union-Herald goes out .of its way in order to make the following pleasant remarks about the white people of Carolina and of the/South . The one thing necessary that supports these saintly gentlemen in all the various ! relatons of life-that.puts in their mouths j tho bread that enables their tongues to | wag so rudely-is the cotton crop. ' That cotton is made, every pound of it, by the colored hbor, and every inch of that la bor is Republican to the core. The way thc thing works is thusly and brieflv : " The nigger" makes the cotton and the " Yank.ee" buys it. Between the two tlie celestial aristocrat of this section manages to grow, fat, and to lind his chief occupa tion in scorning the one and cursing the other, while now and then he murders both of them wirh the '.' rope and bullet." Wherever he holds power no Republican office seeker can sec daylight; and where be does not io is?a great outrage if any of bis political kith or kin is ousted from office. ^. The misstatements in the above extract ire almost as numerous as the lines. ,Eve ry pound of cotton is ?io?. made by colored labor, and " every inch of that labor" is riot Republican to the core.. In every :ountv of South Carolina and Georgia white men are laboring in the fields . by ?he side of thc blacks, and in several of .he northern counties of both States the jotton crop is produced almost entirely by ivhile labor. The best blood of South t and uot Irom any. desire to benefit the .celestial aristocrats!' of Clio South. The Union-Herald* stale slander about the ' rope and the bullets, is hardly won h s .eply.

Deal fairly, leniently and cheerfully, with ill persons who owe you or aro in pe cuniary trouble. If you are out of debt, thank the Lord; and then go round among your friends, [ind enemies, too, if you have them, and render them all the- assistance in your power. a i ti! ;',p?n't hoard your money; but loan it, or use it to relieve thc needy, on the same principle as you., would give bread to tho nt edy in a day pf famine. Do what y?ii can in every way to re lieve pecuniary distress, to check the cm rent of financial embarrassments audre store public confidence. If you are a bank officer or director, don't be cross a .minute. Smile, as a Chris tian duty,.from morning till night. Give an encouraging word, if possible, to all, and by all means strain every nerve to help all A'ho need it. .. J "Father, was" Greeley elected?" asked an unsophisticated twelve-year old of his Republican sire. Starting up with astonishment the latter answered, " No ; why do you ask such a foolish question?" "Bocause," Bald tho boy, " you said last fall if'Greeley was elected there would bo a paule, .and every body says there is a panic how, so -I thought Greeley must 'be elected." The Bills'of the Bank (if thc State. The decision o? thc Supreme Court bf the United States in regard tb these bill.-, will neceasurily present to tile' Legislature nial ter for serious consideration: That deci sion e3tablishs two facts, now no longer open for discussion. One, that the faith of the State is pledged for the redemption of these bills;- the other, that they aro to bo received for'taxes due to the State. These billsj therefore, are a part of the public debt, and, as,a part ol that 'public debi, have been so recognized by the highe.-r judicial tribunal in the United States., Th.. practical question, therefore, now-present ed *o the Legislature is, In what manner shall this Subject be dealt with ? ' How eau it be so arranged that it will not bear heavily : on ,the people? -How siiull we escape from an unendurable increase cf taxation ? It seems to \ us that the wnoie matter may be so dealt with, that the public faith shall be preserved,' while, at the >:a'tu-v ti an the public convenience will bo promoted. And our suggestion is simply this.: Let the Legislature, in providing for . the-ixe ceivability of these bills, further provide 1 that they turfy be paid '.nt by the Preasu rv in discharge of claims ?gj?tist l he St lt?. ?ii the ease, of.'the Blue' Lidge Rattpjad Scrip it was so provided; and, withcut any of the - objections which were made against that issue, that provision may well be enacted in regari to these bills. The bills are not bills of cr?dit ; they aie the bills of a corporation which have been guaranteed by the State, and which, be cause of the quality they poleas in ber g received for taxea, womel ; l-.vaya. have a certain fixed value. .This would, of course, make them, as i> circulating in edi um. very mi.c'.i better than any other paper which the Legislature' could issue; and, uiid-.-r thc existing pressure because of- the wan! of currency-, would seem to bo a mode ol' giving relief to the people. We make this fU^gcstion to the Legis-, laturc, und it/seems lo us to be tue mode in which, as we have said, the public faith is maintained,-.while the public conveni ence is regarded.-Charleston .News cf Courier.
