Weddnea:ly, April 13, 187O, The Electioa in Ceiumbia. The result of the election in Columbia l.nt week, though not what was hoped for ish-whatmight have been expected. The Phoenix says the adherents of radicalitn rallied from far and nea-, and there can hetui e doubt of this, fur the vote shows it. Jvhn Alexander, the radical n.uinee re ceived 1151 votes, while the present in. cumbent and the citizens' party candi date only 624. The board of Aldermen areteetcd, are four wh;tc and eight col ored.

At a meeting held in Charleston, corn. posed of repre<entutives from the var ious Sabbath Schools of the city, held on the 28th ult., it was resolved th'it a conven tion of Sunday School Spoerinter-dents, 'TA.chers and FIiends in the State be heki in Charleston on the 12th, .13th and 11th of May next, for the devising of ways and means to further the advan. e ment of the Sunday Scihe d can-:e. The citeular making the announce ment has been issuel, tut lest it fail to reach all the points designed, it is our pleasure to give the notice thinugh our paper, that at least our readers may be informed of the fact. The invitation is general to all persons interested in the canse of Sunday School<, and we believe that the occa.ion wi!l be a very hal-py one, and signal good result t!erefrom. It is desired that the ,ames of all who will attend as leltgites be sent to either of the f llowing comuittee '' Ave rill, Presbyterian Church ; F. P. E!ford, Episcopal Church; Geo. W. Melver, Baptist Church ; S. A. Nelscn, Metho. dist Church ; R. G. Chisolh, Lutheran Church. Hypachondriacs. The Democratic party, the N. Y. Times says, have for the last eight years been a set of political hypochon:hri:acs, persist ently looking on the dark side-ahvars at the cloud, never at the silver li:,ing. This is a good one. The Balimore Statesmen says this cannot he said of the 1Republicans. Catch the:n not looking at the "silver lining !" Any thing lined in that way is in their line exactly. Every thing in the sky above, or the earth be m ath, is looked at by them with chief reference to its si!ver or golden lining. The Democrats, quoth the Times, "$ave for eight years been a set of po. li'tical hypochondriacs." What a low spirited and dyspeptic set, who could re fuse to be jolly over the events of the last eight years? A man or a party must be hard to please indeed whlich couldn't fiddle, anId dance besides, whilst our modern Rome has been burning. The sight of a once happy andi powerful republic rent in twain ; a million of men killed or disabled; almost every household in the land clothed in mourning; our com rinree swept from the sea; enormous debt and taxation; military despotism and negro rule in once free States, fur nish a spectacle which must throw every loyal soul into spasms of delight, and which none but copper-hea(s and rebels caie fail to regard as cheerig and mirth moving in the highest degree. There bias been a "cloud," it is true, but though it deluged the land in blood and tears, it wrasn't much of a shower after all. At the worst, it hadl its "silver lining'-its fat contracts, building up rich shoddy at istocracies on dead men's bones ; its plunder, patronage and place; its innu mnerab.le rings, bi ight with all the hues of the rainlbow, and absorhing the gold and s~lyer coloring of thle central sun. No) wonder these "silver lining" fellows are-gay and festive in the midst of gene ral tribulation, and find it as diflicult as anmy other tricks, mn.luitoes and blood suckers, to understand wihy a process whieh is so agreeable to themselves can beat's!! dispiriting to those, who are the victi ts.

The Dtheraxn College of WValhalIa, al though still known by- the name and style ot Newberry College. forgets the place of it birth. We leairn indi:ee:ly that the Auniver sarv of the hrenakosmian $ociety was cele - -. hni:d :~ I t'.j pti The Presbytery of South Carolina. Th is old and venerated body of Christians, cou :eud in Aveleigb Church, at this place, on "tursday, the 7,h inst., at 3i o'clock. Th:e opening sermon was preached by the Iev. Di. luist. trom the 15th verse of the third ebapter of the first Epistle of Paul to T imto:lh. In this di:course Dr. Buisttreated a,ly of the glory at grandeur of the Church of Christ on earth. Christ Himself being the only lawgiver In its organization, govern ment, &c. After the delivery of the sermon, the Ptcsbytery was called to order, and open ed with prayer by the former Moderator. The Rev. A. A. Morse was then unanimously chosen Moderator, and Rev. It. A. Mickle, 'Temporary Clerk, with Rev. W. P. Jacobs, and T. 1I. Russell as Assistants. The roll of Ministers and Churches was called by the Clerk, and about 0 delegates enrolled their names. Tne Rev. Messrs. Darby and Cau, then, of the Methodist, and Hlawkins, of the Lutheran Churches being present, were invited to sit as c<rresponding members. At night the Rev. J. 0. Lindsay occupied the pulpit, and preached a deeply interesting sermon, from the text, "Only Believe." The simplicity and cfficacy of the gospel in the salvation ofsinners,even the most abandoned, was ably set forth. On Frilay morning, the business of the Presbytery was entered upon at 9 o'clock. After the discharge of some routine business, the special order of the day was taken up, to wit: The consideration of the new Book of Church Order. A very animated and inter esti,tg dehate sprang up on a question involv ing the Judicial powers of a Church Session. After the decision of that point awarding to e:ch Church Session complete jurisdiction in the cases of offences of Church members, the further consideration of the new Book proceeded fur the most part harmoniously, and consumed the greater part of the day. It was finally approved as a whole. On Friday night Rev. Mr. Latimer preached a very logical and elcqnent sermon fro-t Romans, ^d chapter, and 2Uth to 2101 verses inel'taive. Washington St., Cht'ch, (Greenville.) was chosen as the place, and Thursday before the third Sabbath in October, at half past 7 o'clock, as the time for the next mceting of 're,bv tery. The 1'.esbytery w.s called to order at 9 o'clock A. 11 . Saturday. A call from Iiope well Church for the pastoral services of the !Rev L. K, GIa gow, was ordered to be place'l inIN iniid, ita ad Ws nccepted 'by the bro:her. The call from Fairview Church for the pastoral service; of the Rev. C. B. Stewart, excited some discussion, but was placed in his hands, and he was permittel to retain the call in his hauls until the next I session of Presbytery. R':v. R1. A. Mickle, of Newberry C. H , Eev. Dr. .lno. B. Adger, of the Columbia Theological Seminary, Dr. Jno. F. Dorrob, of Lturens District, and Col. it. A. Fair, of Abbevile, were elec:ed Commissioners to rep resent this 'resbytery in the general Assem bly at Loui:ille, Ky. The thank.. of the Presbytery were tendered I to the Messrs. Greneker. for kindly fnrnish ing printed abstracts of the proceedings of yesterday. The ,ul ject of dividing the resliytery was ably discussed by Messrs. Baxter, Fair, Lind say, Adger, and others, and eliciting very strong opposition, and was finally indefinite ly postponed. A very animated discussion sprang up on the subjiet: of Domestic Missions. Dr. .Jno. B. Adger made a very earnest appeal in favor of continuing the work. Rev. Dr. E. T. IBuist, in his eloquent manner, earnestly pressed the Isame point. T be discussion was cotntinued by Mr. Baxter, Col.R. A. Fair, Rev's. Mickle, Lindsay, and others. The resolution by D)r. Adger, favorable to a contiuation of the good work was adopted. Rev. Mr. Jacobs offered the following res olution, which was unanimously adopted: REsOLVED, That the hearty thank? of this P'resbytery be tendered to the citizens of Newberry, for their tnoble and generous hos pitality, and to thme various Churches for their kind offer of their Church buildings, an htthe pastor o'f Aveleighi Church be rt quested to bring the resolution before his congregation and the other Churches In such way as he may think best.

Wootd, Nevl:urg. N. Y. Baleidoscopic. "People will talk you know." Well, let them talk, co that you mind your own busi ness. Sonic people talk foolish words, others cruel words, awl still others false words. A word fitly spoken is a good word; it is an apple of gold, and docth good. Kind words never do harm; unkind words cut as a knife; yea and nay are aliway in season; silence is gold but jargon perfect brass. One gossip can take a community by storm, two may set a river on tire, and three take the world clean out of its boots. What a pity peo, pie will talk-when they ought not. But then if they didn't maybe their pent up utica would burst or run ovcr, and then, horrible dictu. iear what the poet says: We will get through this world but 'twill be very slow, If we listen to all that is said as we go: We'll be worried and fretted and kept in a stew, For meddlesome tongues must have some thing to do For people will talk, you know. The best way to do is to do as you please, For your mind, if you have one, will then be at ease: of course you'll meet with all sorts of ubuse, But don't think to stop them, it isn't any usc For people will talk, you know. Shon-fly isn't a circu:nstance to Busy-body. I have always he-n opposed to the in troduction of the Japanese, but since I learn that these Barbmrians have a virtue unknown to many Christi in people-that is the minding of their own lu-iness-f am in favor of their immigration. To-day the weather is charming beyond de ecription. and the glad earth seems in accord with the serene and mellow splendor that comrs floating down the azure dome-the glad coronal of opening spring,with its symphony of sunshine and melody, pretty mating birds.beautiful flow ers, and happy-voiced child-hood. wishing and waiting to kiss the sweet award with their bare feet and chase the eldn moments up and down the limpid stream. But of those pretty little flow ers would we say a word: those humble little flowers, erstwhile hid from view and covered by the death of winter, have opened their eyes from the icy touch, and they sweetly tell of other fowers that will bloom aain-the lorety immor telles of the fadele-s garden! 'Theu pr.triot eons lo: up, behold the deep and sullen glooen. That lowers o'er your nativ land aith thun ders in its womb ; Are e so blind ye cannot see the omens in the sky ? Are ye so deaf y e cannot hear the tramp of foe men nigh :"' I will join hands, if you will, dear reader, and admit that it requires Titan eoura,e and ' ...rt io ci.u t'ne Crus' anI wreck that drifts apace. But ifit catl be done twill be a glorious victory. True, civiliza tion and happiness are now seemingi y in compatible, bec.'use the nihili.t has not only obliterated the land-marks that gave dignity to life but lie is endeavoring to trench upon fairer fields. Who the foemen and what the omens? Thought has become thoughtless, and feeling dead! The people of this "best government" have been led so slowly from one specious phase of legislation to another, from one wrong to another, from one burden to another, that its a matter of cour,e. And I very much fear that until the grand coup d'etat of a centralized despot ism with all the attendant evils of comnmuno socialism, are established, the American peo ple will not wake up from their lethargic sleep. But who has not an abidiug faith that mighty truth will once more ri-e from the earth, and that a suffering people will emerge in some mysterious Gray from their long, dark..night into a morning of trans cendent brightness? Since I sat upon this tripod, parliaments have been prorogued. Congresses have convened, and legislatures adjourned: 1rades-unions otall sorts have represented theiselves in convention, and sailors trom the sea and the sold iers have respec tively conme together iu council; doctorsasnd den tists anid sorosis have s'sembkld; camp.-meetings and oecumnenlcal councils h:mve met;anid all man ner of meo, of all classes, creeds, casies and col ors have gone intor pubhlc or secret session, and there have been rings withia rings, a.d wheels within wheels; and even th'e press that ponder ous macchine, bul .ark, palladium and tower, has expres!.ed its retument, and [barring what the doctors and dentists may have done-for the Ia dies only ta ked ab' ut thelirsorosisaniddr-ank tea, in my humble opinion, and everybody has a right to an opinion, and a right to express that opmnion when respectfually so done-nothiug new under the sun has been eliminated; none of the mounitains have opened up a way of escape from the moral anid physica! darknessawhjich envel ope us. $tatesanuship is dead. Fai th a myth. ti inanity fled to brutish beasts., And th'inigs that are comely and generous, and noble are de rided, disesteemed and set at vat iauee. Compromises andI concessions are often frpu 15. fletroactive in their tendi ney. And militate against those who mike them. Rletlly I don't fancy giving one thing after another; and finally everything, till like the Indian at the end of the log, there's notbinig better than deathm. Now let us play a brave and manly gamre for the political marbles, and should we loose, wvell, the conseiousnxess will remain of' having done our duty. Init doot go over, will you or nill you, to the op positmon. True Democracy is broad enough and strong enough to take up all men who wish peace to the country. Dont surrender everything, event the honored naimes of the past, till like the Norman conquest, every 'liug is aibsorbed. Buit rathier let us emu L:e the hmeroismt of' yoiung Edward, at Agin court, anid make a gallant atienmpt for Decm (ierac'y. Better even to fail nobly than to surrender ignobly. Welt. I do hope that the agricultural conven tion nhich shortly asembles will spread itself grandly for industrial develo;,meiit amid State re demaption. There are se many quest ions germanie to the great principle of agricultural art and chemistry-i. e., immigration, diversitied la bor, proper apiplication ot plant food, use of labor saver's. aeration, sub-soiling, dra inage, irrigation aiid rotationi of crops; tihe great ecomnomy omf root crops, ead the relative value of certaiu grasses. together with many oilier nice little questions that sre only pertinetmt to the mind of the augri culturist. B3ehold her easy, graceful swing Before the air so smuooth and cold ; Backward the winids her tresses fling, The breath of Borcas the bold. N. 1.-In these days,when 'boughtten hair' so closc'y resembles the genuine inherited article, it may be difficult to say 'which is switch"-but the above girl's tresses were her own. Oni ivard she glides with ma:chless grace, Nor heeds the sharp tand biting air; No "muslin roses" round her face, For Nature's own are blushing there. Her daitity little feet are fast To runners that so smoothly bound; WVhose polished steel, as she files past, Gleimsa brightly o'er the frozen ground. (N.

Bear this in mind. While on the sharp line, can any one tell which travels the fastest-heat or cold? Do you give it up? Why heat of course, any body can catch-cold! Wno killed that old cow last week? Who helped to ear it? These questions give rise to very serious reflections. Its great age should have exempted it from such an end. A moral community ought not to be subjected to such a trial.

We doubt if any re-I mained at home, as every man or boy seemed to be in town, and greatly marvellous was the noise. The amount of shoe leather soaked, sobbed and worn out in the mud and rain, for it poure.d incessantly the whole day, is sad to contemplate; int a pecaniary point of view the parade was costly. It was the tpuddiest, dirtiest day seen in an age. It was a melancholy sight indeed, that interminable sloshing through the mud, as forward and back, and over again, they tramped. The fife and drum too were in sympathy with the elements and the dripping, muddy soldiers, Jupiter pluvius wa loose, and so were the melish, and they got wet inside and out.

EDrTORS :-In noticing the practi :al exhibitions of the Press on the present situation of governtnental affairs, it would tppear that an effort is making to bring the )opular mind to the essential principles of t common platform, upon which to stand in I he coming canvass for the election of a I sew Legislature. Various are the sugges- u ions as to the best mode of procedure in d reparing the voting citizens for the ballot t )ox. I desire to take a part in making sug- I ,estions, and propoce the following for eon iideration: But first, what are the evils of which we omplain, ani for which we desire a remedy? )ne of the greatest is the burthensome taxa ion to which we are subjected; and the un :ertainty and confusion, into which our laws mnd code of rules of procedure in our Courts ire thrown by extravagant legislation; entail ng loss of time, and heavy expenses, in con lucting the litigation of the country. 1 In view of this condition of our situation, he great desideratum with us is, how can we put in motion a remedy? I say put in' notion, because it cannot all be done at I )nce. Gomething can be done, in the right di rction, if the voting citizens will unite and xeartily endeavor to elect a LAgislature ca ,able of realizing our weighty burthens, and illed with the spirit of tiue reform and in lustry to do the most useful work in the ihortest possible time. Such a selection of nen can and will effect wonders for the gen, I ral welfare of our oppressed people; but t iot so much for the milionaire speculators. sow, can such a selection be made? Not i with ease and apathy; but if the people I could unite and go to work properly, I think 1 rery much could be done. I I will state my plan. Let each county r riewits own separate voting condition of fixed c 'acts of living Issues. For example, a county r taring a preponderance of white voters, and ending three members to the House of Rep esentatives, nominate a ticket of two white md one colored candidate, and upon condi ion, that they openly and publicly pledge hemselves to work for the reform desired by be native and adopted citizans of our State, r ben give them a un'ted support at the bal- t ot box If a county have a preponderance, e Ither wsy, and be entitled to four members, a et the citizens nominate a ticker of two a rhitec and two colored, and upon the condi- fi ions already atated, theu ra!!; their Suc- tl ess at :lt? .llot boa. Al so let each p ounty ::ct fur itweif. Anl further, if there t: hould be a county entit!e.l to four or more b members, and only two suitable men can be P ound to take open ground for the needed re- = orm, nominate but these two, one white and d mne colored, and then all who are for reform, upport these and no others. I write to be understood, use no meta a hors or hidden language indicating policies , or the future, but speak straight out. In electing colored nominees, I hesitate not to dvocate the appointment of those, mainly, v rho have been owned among us as slaves, i rmerly-and of those too who are of the arming class. They feel more sharply the urthens of which we all comp!ain. Much can be said in favor of this course of rocedure, but I forbear argument. The rea ons are very apparent. In this way they n rill see that we are in earnest in recognizing heIr legal rights, that we desire to take themr long with us, in learning the business of awemnaking and in the execution of, law., twill remove frnm their min-Is the -hbag tears of being reduced to slavery again, and ~uard theta against humnb-iggery for the fu n--c. They will more readily learn that they . ave been galled with shandows, whilst their re tendedl friends ran away with their sub) tanee. We must get the workings of the kate government in fair order-and let na ional polities and alliances be for the proper imne, We are not ben, fitted juat now, ap-( irhend by keeping ump mcrely party strug tIes for party success and office emolumer ts. ellow-citizens, we have much at stake, and et us thit,k twice before we speak, and look with both eyes before we leap. Send out 'our orators and logical sharp-shooters, to nlighten the popular mind. The Press can lo much, but good stumping can do mo:'e inI his mnttter.

Whoever is debarred by cir utustances from unrestricted access to this In rlsib'e. but powerful stimulant, needs a nmedici iai invigorant of some kind. The great object hould be to choose the best. Popularity is a >rstty good guarantee of merit in this scrutinizing nd intelligent age, and tried by this criterion lost. tter's Stomach Bitters stands first among he invigorating and re"ulating medicines of the nresent day. To the w~a.ts or persons engaged n indoor 'employments. especial ly in crowded 'actories where even with the best possible rentilation the atmosphere is always in some de gree polluted, this salubrious vegetable tonic Is seculiarly adapted. The nature of the ingre lients is no mystery. It cons'i"ts of an absolutely pure diffusive stimulant, tinctured--or rather murcharged-withi the fluid extracts of sanatous roots and barks and herbs. The pharmacopuoeia aas its tinctures. but what are they'? Thejuace of >nly a single root or bark or plant is present in each. Not one of them combines the three properties of a tonic. an alterative, and an ape rient. All these elements are blended in the' P.itters; nor are these the sum of its med duial recommendations. It is also a blood de purent and an antispasmodic. The baleful effect'which air that has been par :ially exhausted of its oxygen by frequent breath ing produces on the vital organization. is noto rious,.and when to this devalized atmosphere is superadded the mephitic vapor of hot air fur aaces, it becomes deleterious and depressing in the extreme. To enable the syst em to beer up. iven for a few hours each day against the deblli sating influence of a vitiated atmosphere. a whole !ome tonic and alterative is urgently required. rhis grand disideratum is snpplied in Iostetter's Bitters, which as a strength-sustaining, health - protecting agent has no rival eith er among offic, onal or advertised medicinee, April 6.14-Tm.

Our first physicians use and recommend its use; the Apothecary finds it first among the medicines called for, and the Wholesale Druggist considers it a leading article in his trade. All the dealers in medicine speak alike in its favor, and its reputation as A 3IEDICIxE OF C@EAT IRTUE, is fully and permanently established It is the great FAMILY MEDICINE of the age.

Bruises, Cuts, Burns, Scalds. old Sores and Spr:ins, Swellings of the Joints, 'ootliache, Pain i'i the Face, Neuralgia and Rheumatism, Chapped Iiands, Frost-bitten Feet, &c. PAIN is supposed to be the lot of n; poor mortals as inevitable as death, and liable at any time to come upon us. Therefore it is important that remedial agents should be at hand to be used on emergency, when we are made to feel the excruciating agony of pain, or the depressing influence of disease. Such a remedial agent exists in PERRY Dvs' "PAIN KILLER," the fame of which has extended over all the earth. Amid the eternal ices of the polar regions, or beneath the intolerabie and burning suns of the trop ics, its virtues are known and appreciated. And by it suffering humanity has found re lief from many of its ills. The effect of the Pain Killer upon the patient, when taken in ternally in cares of Cough, Cold, BowelCom plaints, Cholera, Dysentery, and other affec tions of the system, has been truly wonder ful, and has won for it a name among medi cal preparations that can never be forgotten. Its success in removing pain, as an external remedy, in cases of Burns, Bruises, Sores and Sprains, Cuts, Stings of Insects, &c., and other causes of suffering has secured for it I the most prominent p' >n among the med icines of the day.
