Death of Mr. Samuel B. M issey. Our community nun greallv shocked on 'fhnraday morning lust at the announcement of tlie death of Mr. Samuel 11. MasseY, on the night previous, (the lltli inst .) after an illness of n few hours * j lie was seen upon the street and at his ] place of business on the morning c?r '.lie I 14th. flnnnrpntlv i?? Kia nunul iiuoltK I comparatively few in tlie community knew of his illness until aftei the s nrtlmg an nouncemetit of his death. The disease Cf winch he died, the physicians nay. resembled much a case of genuine Asiatic Cholera. Mr. Masses was a prominent and most useful citizen, always identified with movements calculated to Advance the in terest of his native District. In early life he wis a member of tlio legal profession and practiced a number of years at lite Lancaster liar. Retiring from the Liw, he devoted his attention fo Irs planting inteos:*, which wits quite extensive, and fhr the last six or eight years tho business of merchandizing has shared a part of his lab* T*. In lite course of h;s life, he represenle 1 the District in the Stale Legislature am! in various other important ( ami honorable relations, and always with | efficiency and fidelity. Few men possess a spirit of inoro genuine benevolence than he did. His position, wealth and influence were always freely extended when asked in tho intere-t of truth or for the rel ef of tho needy. The poor of 0k t the District, especially during the trying ordea! of tho late war, received ample testimonials of his liberality and goodness of heart. Selfishness formed no part of his nature, and there are perhaps few who shared his acquaintance, who have not. ih one way or another, had persona] ex' pcrietico oi ins liberal, benevolent and hospitable disposition, lis de>th is a public calamity, and the evidence of bis many virtues will long survive in tlte hearts of the people of Canons'er. Oi?r Town AuthoritiesIt is very evident, that nolens the Town Council exercise the authority delegated under their Charier, they are nothing 1 le*s than a nuisance, as a l>odv, to So- ' ciety, and should so he reported bv the ' Grand Jury. The importance of Iihv 1 iifg men of responsibility and energy at ' the head of a(Fairs, even in the small mat ' lor of local authority, is highly necessary ' to the interest ol all concerned. At oar " local atfairs have heon governed for the 1 last eight or ten years, the question mav ( very reasonably occur, could we not fare ' Lfelter under the old rule of Commission ' ers of roads. Beyond the collection ><( ( taxe'a, ( ? ttialter generally enfor e-l) there ' se. tits (o he no ol! erduly tliat impresses itsolf upon this Lo iy? with the exception 1 of turning over a clcd of dirt on front ' ' street occasionally. Tltey hare sullered \ their ordinances to lo violated hy every drunken loafer aqd vagabond negro who wishes to parade the streets in any style ' which may suit Ihoir fancy. . In fact, we ' know of hut one instance within our rec ! ollection, where the transgressor was brought to . justice But, enough I If, it were not for the fact, that rohherv, i rowdyism and drunkenness,have grown to ; he evils in our midst, too intolerable to be borne, and dangerous to our welfare, wo would let the present authorities, like their predecessors, pass out of existence without remark. But, such is the state 1 or anaira hi hum lime, Ami a likelihood of a worse during the Chriatmaa'holidnTa ' that urgent necessity demands that some ' thing should be done to eradicAte the ' evils ; And if our town Authorities are ' dead to the interests of their charge and ' themselves, ?a ndvise the people to lake 1 the mailer in hat.d. Our laws are snffT* ' cient ; the powers delegated under the I Charter aro ample; all that is needed, is energy, ar.d a disregard foT the faror of . the violators of law. Failure* i The late act:on of the Legislature in 1 roferer.co to pr< curing supplies of com for the dest'tuto has resulted, as might have 1-een anticipated, in a complete fail tire.

The fire was the result of accident, and whs discovered too late to save the child. C O M M U N I C A T IS I). Rev. !>r. A'lo.jr, of South Carolina, wrhes to D'.
