Ben Lano Posoy, formerly Editor of tlio Independent Press, Abbeville, but now odiior of tlio Marion (Ala ) American,, ami ono of the survivors of tlio gallant Palmetto Begimont, has assumed the task of writing a history cf that regiment, its actings and driinrrs?ronflninnr himself to wlint "no sn\r nnd was engaged in. Wo commence this week its 'epnblication, nnd shall endeavor to continue his serial history to tho end.? Mr. Posey v,-ill consume about three months in producing those chapters, but as they will bo brief, wo hope our readers .vill retain enough veneration for tho patriotism of that heroic band to follow him patiently through the details of that camp and soldier lifo which never finds its way into "ofcial reports" or "general orders," but usu ally looks for voice at tho hertrth-stones ir after davs, when children arc gathered a round the old soldier-father's knee, to heat tho recital of his youthful doods of valor,and pee him "fight his Initios o'er again." The following is tho first chaptor: TIIE PALME PTO REGIMENT. nv O.VK. OF THE TWO HUNDUKD. The South Carolinians have ever hoct distinguished for ihcir chivalrous and niili tary spirit. The history of iho Americar revolution is luminous with the rccord o their victories. Hut even history has no dono juBtico to their part in that glorious struggle. Herself exempt and secure fron the griefs nnd burdens which irritated anc oppressed tho other colonies, she, a speoia favorite, and foster child of tho English Sov iM'fiiorn Srtlllh O.irrdinn wns thi\ fot-pnins find tho boldest to strike the blow of rosis tanco, and the most patient, enduring am unconmicrablc, during seven years of \vn which laid its heaviost hand upon her pco pie. It was her peoplo who were huntc< down by the merciless guerillos?Rawdol and Tarleton; her people whom a violate* faith offered up upon tho gi' bet, to gratif humbled pride and baflled alico. It wa hor fortilc fiolds that wero solaled, he beautilul gardens that were ravaged by th hand of tho destroyer, until there was not A ro.?e of tlie wilderness loft on its stalk To tell where the garden had hccn. It was the spirit of her Sumters ami Mn rions that flickered through the long nigh of despair and desolation, as an assmanc that liberty had yet a hope and a champion It would not, perhaps, bo claiming to< much to say, that but for tho part whicl South Carolina bore in tho revolution, i would either not havo begun, or have bee unsuccessful. One of the greatest victoric of tho war was achieved by her own pec pie, under her own palmetto flag, behiu the palmetto logs of Fori Moultrie. Lexington, glorious as it was, was a les victory than that of Charleston, and Bunkc Hill was a defeat; while King's Mountai was more than a Yorktown victory. Fort Moultrie, Monk's Corner, Fort Mott Kutaw Springs, Camden, Cowpens, King Mountain, and Ninety-Six, where Koscin; ko led her sons to battle ; these arc her hii torio battle-fields, and they lose none f their lustre when compared with the brigh1 est in the country's history. South Carolinians are a peculiar peopl That they have gravo faults, and follies, ir separable from their virtues, and natural! attendant upon their circumstances and hi: tory, I am not so blind or uncanded as t denv. Homogeneous and isolated. disaff?( ted to tbo union, proud of their nncdefrj and of their history,, they ?b*mh, even t disdain, the idea of their own superiority. They bear now in their habits and mar ncrs the traces Of their origin, and tlies havo but slightly changed in three luindre years. Having furnished supli names t tbo civil and military history of tlio com try, tb/eir prido and self-esteem may be C! fcused if not justified. In civil history Soul Carolina possesses such names asLownde Pincknoy, Hay no, Legarc, MoDnfRo an Calhoun ; in military history, mi oh as Lj i ens, Moultrie, Sumtor, Marion, Butler,.an Andrew Jackson. This nfide i* perhnm an unnmiablo fee ing; it is certainly to other!) nn Oflonsn feeling. It is common to sneer at or nti'e* to ridiculo the courage, or in cant langonjs " the chivalry," of Kouth Cnrol'ma. Tu pprings not from an honest doubt ot' (lie si perior courage of Carolinians, but from resentment, a jealousy, an intolowu'ro that superiority. Tthns its origin in a mean littleness i tho heart, n vanity or pretension that humbled at the confessionof inferiority.No Athenian doubted the justice of Ari: tides, and yet they ostracised hint.

The military spirit, o"r courage, or chivn *J,? it nrmy severely bo designated, of tl Qk' * Eft * V ' m . jflpn' Jrr^ ^ Carolinian*, is derived from ttvo fiources.? Tho first ia their origin, the second is their history, habit*, nnj education. < Their origin ia from the best blood of the , Knglish Cavaliers, and the French Huguenot??. Tc military instincts were added military habits, acquired in almost constant ; wars with the Indians and tho Hpauiakls. Thus inured to hardships, accustomed to ! war, and fond of glory, tho revolution found i ' . i .uni ready lo peril "life, fortune, and sa- ' crcd honor," ia the struggle for iadepen- ' dence. Three quarters of a century have not of- 1 faced that history, r.> destroyed tho noble lessons It tminrlit. Hislnrv nnd pdiirntion 1 have enforced tliom upon successive conorations. The pqople of South Carolina are little less than a standing army. ITcr voung men nro highly educated, mostly at tho expense of the State, and their first and last lesson is, that doath is preferable to dis^ 1 honor. Their gospel is tho sentiment of Ca*sar : " Sot honor in one eye. arid death in the other, And I will look on both Indifferently." It is the custom now, while not denying tho ancient valor of Carolinians, to claim that her present generation has degenerated, and " Lost Hie lirood of noble deeds." But the history of tho Palmetto Regiment meets and refuses tho ungracious > ohargo. And to write this history is iny I present t<isk. For the Ladies. Hefc is sorno interesting intelligence for the ladies, vouched by good authority: Skuf Sealing Cans.?Take a common j fruit jar, with a tie cover made like a shoe black box, tho jar and tho cover will probably < ost twelve cents and hold a quart.? Any of the cement? that are used lor herding can or jars, will do for this.

As fruit jars liavo a lip, you have a littlo trough to fill with cement and the work is done. Let your jars get cold, stand on the covers, and put i them away in tho same position.

I5nt ho thought Betney, like other [inc ladies iri the Court, would fain that he should smoke out of doors, nor taint with tobacco tho tapestry. Whereupon, the knight Would seek his garden, his orchard nnd in any weather smoke sub love. Now, it chanced ns the knight smoked, St. lSetkcy came to liini and said : My Lord, pray yc come into tho house; and the knight went with St. Betsey, who took-him into a newly cedared room, and said t proy, my Lord, henceforth smoke here, for is it not a .shamo that y?>n, who are tho cluet prop i)f your house, should have no place to put your head into niwl smoke? And St. 1 Jotsoy led him to a chair, and with hoi' own fingers filled him a pipe; and from that time tho kniglit sat in the 'cedar chamber and smoked his weed. St. Sai.I.Y.?St. Sally, from hor childhood, was known for her innermost love of truth. It was said of hor that her heart was a crystal shrine, and that all the world might seo it. Now, onoo when other women denied, or strove to hide their age, St. C3..1I r i ivi. wuu j uui n\v it 1111 I'M i i l v n II^IU; u) n, next birthday, St. Snlly'n husband, at ft feast of all thoir friends, 'gave her a necklace of six and thirty opal bends ; and on every birthday added a bead, until the beads amounted to four score and one.? And the heads seemed to act as a charm ; for St. Sally weaving the sum of her age about her neck, age never appeared in hey face. Such in the olden time was the reward of simplicity and truth. St. piuluti.?St. IMiillis was a virgin of noble parentage, but withal as simple as a shepherdess of curds and cream. She married a Lord and had much pin money. But when other ladies wore diamonds and pearls, St. I'hillisftnly wore a red rose in her hair. Yet her pin money bouftlit the best jewelry in the happy eyes of tho poor about her. St. Phlllis was rewarded. She lived until four score, and still carried the red and white rose in her face, and felt their fragrance in her memory. St. riKETU-:.?St. I'houbo was married early to a wilful, b\it withal a good hearted husband. ITo was a merchant, and would come home sour and snllen from Change. Whereupon after much pondering,fit. Phcobe,in her patience set to work, and praying the while, made of dyed Iamb's wool, a door mat.? And it chanced from that time forth, that never did the husband touch that, nu.t, that he didn't clean his temper and his shoes, and ho sat down by his Phoebe as miid as the lamb whose wool he had trod upon.? Thus gentleness makes mirwdous door mats. cvv. ljiiiT.Y.?in. Jjiuywas the my& ot a pom- man, who tvicrl to support his family ?and his children were many?by writing books. In those days it was not so easy for a man to lind a publisher as to say Ms Paternoster. Many wero the book* tluiV vcre written by tho husband of St. Lilly, bet to every book St. Lilly gave at least two bhbies. However, blithe ns a cricket was tho spirit that ruled about tho hearth of St. Lilly. And how she helped her helpmate! She smiled sunbeams into his ink bottle, and turned his goose pen to tho quill of a dovo ! Sho made the paper he wrote on as white as her name and as fragrant as her i soul. And when folks wondered how St. Lilly managed so lightly with fortunes troubles, she answered that she never heeded thorn, tor, troubles wore like babies, and only grew bigger by pursing. Pmlosotmiv of Uain.?To understand the philosophy of this beautiful and often sublime phenomenon, so often witnessed since the creation of the world, and so esj sential to the very existence of plants and animals, a few facts derived from observation and a long train of experiments must bo remembered J.

The St. J??ul ( Minnesota) Pioneer.gives a detailed ami interesting account of the rp| recovery of Miss Gardiner from the Tncli- (^ arts' who perpetrated tho Spirit Lake massiii-re. The story of her haying bi>oi? set jo up as a target and shot at by tho ludiatlH ^ turns out. to bo a sheer fabrication : Mis.s (innlini'V was voflrtuod by three friendly Indians, dispatched for the purpose by. Governor Medary. They hear (lie pieturCHquo names of May.aiutemani, or the ^ Man who vlioottf Metal aw ho Walks; ITo- j|( tonwashitc, of Beautiful Yoiee, and Chotanma/.a, or the Iron Hawk. Mis? Gardiner is a native of Seneca county, New York, J and is but lift eon years of U"o. Her fath- ()f cr, mother, and the rest of tup family, exeopt. a sister, who had just removed to another part of Iowa, were all murdered at the time of the attack on the Spivit Lake settlement. re Tho above mentioned Indians loft tlio si Yellow Medicine Agency on the 2lhl Mnv >7 in a two-horse wogon, and on tlio 20tii 01 came npon a deserted camp of Tnkptfuutah's so band, (the Indians who committed tlic oiit- hi rages,) whore they found the dead body of 3i Mrs. Nobles, one of the captives taken from si Spirit Lake. The body was torribly mu- tl tilated ; it was apparent, that she had been ai most cruelly outraged, not only before, hut A after death. Three bullet wounds were tl I discovered in her head, and on her limbs st i aim uii: iruuus ui ui uim yi U' uiw ^ Visible. Tho Indians wrapped her body in al a blanket, and interred it. The next day* n at another deserted camp, they discovered <1 Mrs. Noble's hair, which they gathered up for transmission to .her friends. On the 80th of May they reached rm on- a eampment of one hundred lodges of Yank- -v ton Indians, and three lodges of Tnkpadu tab's band, whevo tboy learned that Miss 1 Gardiner and Mrs. Nobles had been-sold to n Yankton warrior, but, that subsequent- t( ly, Mrs. Nobles had been forcibly taken from o the Yankton's lodge by Inkpadutidi's son ;l and some confederated, who, after brutally i; outraging her, put an end to her existence. Miss Gardiner was saved only by the bra very of the Yankton who purchfi.scu her j lie placed her on the couch Wwle ^ his wjiiftw, fttia declared that his life ? and that of l)i.s snuaw would bo sacrificed J1 before harm should come tg Mi?s Gardiner. This bold course saved her from injury. n The name of this warrior is Wanuhisknlbunko, or the End of the Snake, and with j him the Indians immediately opened nejjjotintiofis to obtain Mift-s Oavdincr'f* release, j The Knd of fbe Snake shid he bouirlit her ) with the intention of giving her up to the ( i whites, hut could tiot. give irof up till he had obtained the consent of the remainder of tho Yartktons.

(JurdinOr up, because tlic^' co\ild do better ^ by taking her to the military officer* in Missouri, and gef n large amount of no vde?' and tobacco. A bribe, however, silejiced | him, aud Miss Gardiner was finally ddiv- ^ cred to the Christian Indians. The price . paid for Jjlifs. Gardiner was homes,scv- ' en blankets, two kegs of powder,- a box of tobacco, and other articles.
