We rarely hear of any thing oQ the sort now a-days; ao iare indeed, that the following exception ia worthy o! public notice: A law day a ago Mr. Jotin SinaM cam* to town w ith a lot of chickens for maiket, and lliougn offeicd two dollars each for tile lot, he refused to lake it, suying that it was more than he wanted, and sold tliem out to hi* old customers at $1 60 each.

Soiue persons believe that the re* election ot l.iiicotn will so disallecl the NorthWestern Stales as to bting about a secession ol those it Later, (iota the Union. This is a vain delustoa?the danger is that the North-West will go lor liliu. I Mr Btyoo and bit CoottitueoU The Carolinian informs us thai on the night of the 17tli inst meeting of citizens was held In the Court House Square in Columbia to consider the late letter ol the lion. W. W. Bujcr U> President Davis. That speeches weie made hy Mr. Iloyce himsell and by a number of other gentlemen, alter which resolutions condemnatory o' the polit y ol the foimcr, and inviting him to rtaign his seal in Congress were adopted. Private accounts say that the toe cling was very largely attended and that it j Was ot a very orderly assemblage. I Mr. lioyew's letter to Piesident Davis has 1 been interpreted as favoring reconstruction.? I This ia the popular idea of it, and if incorrect, ! I ami a iat?e construction has been given to Mr. | I Doyce'a expressions, he should at once take I steps to aet himself right before the public*? ' The Columbia Uuaruian, in which paper Die * letter was originally published, does not be- | | Jieve that Mr. Boyce is a recons|/t|ciiouist.? ' naya mat paper: "Does Mr. Bojce mi-an to | favor a reconatructioo of tlie Union ? Certain- , Ij not, diiectljr; nor, in our judgment, indirectly or eoTirtlj. We think the inference forced and unfair which eatracta audi a meaning and puipoao troiu liia letter. Mr. Hojrce ia too ragaciuua a man, and too true a patriot, to advance [or entertain an idea which ia aa tuonatroua aa U . ? ? " If the Uuaidian it cornel in the foregoingyl (heuit would ipprtr that the meeting of Mr. ftoyce'c constituents, gotten up with the view , to condemn the policy of reconsti urtior., Wee p;#Wi*lure It i? unfortunate in one re*peel thai eo much importance has been given to the patter: it will create the impression among our enemiee that there ie a party in South Crjr- \ ftlina who are ip Mtr of reuniting with the North, a proposition which U aa false as anything can be. The i|uesuon of rsponatroc tion, so iar as eer k noiedge extends, is nbt enter* teinsd here?it is not before the people and is universally condemned aa monstrous end repugnsut to all the Oner feelings oCour (tapir* TMa being the sswou sentiment, k would be % J? 11 . exceedingly strange if Mr. Boyce has so misrepresented bis constituents as to propogate s different principle ; and it occurs to us that It was due to bis high position'and attainments, fur bis constituents to bars united iu a request for au explanation of whatever appeared objectionable in bis letter, before arraigning liini before a public assemblage. Arming in* AegroeaThe extraordinary project of arming our negroes ami making soldiers of them is being discussed in influential quarter*. The Richmond Enquirer, and one or two Oilier leading paper*, have been advocating the measure with an earnestness which leads to the bcliel that a Anmidersble party is in sympathy with them. We should be sorry to believe that die cause was ieduced to the necessity of resorting to this suicidal, and at best doubtiul, expedient. Ti|e Montgomery Mail understands funn an authoiity which it regards as altogether reliable, that the teatuies ol.a bill for arming the negroes and placing them ill the field % being canvassed by a click* ol politicians prior to the introduction before the Confederate Con grew. The bill pioposcs: 1st. To collect ibe all the ablebodied negroes between the ages of IS and 46, i espeeti vely. id.
