[Greenville Mountaineer. Tut: AUTUMNAL F.QUINOX.-AS the equinoctial storms are now upon us, wo copy tho following interesting article from tho " Charleston News :" - I'hocnix. " About the 21st of September, the cliptic, or great circle which the sun appears to de scribe in thc heavens in the course of the year, crosses the terrestrial equator. The point of inters- ction is called the equinoctial point, or the equinox, because nt that period, from its position in rolutiou to the sun, the earth, ns it revolves on its axis, has exactly one-half of its surface illumined by thc iun's rays, while tho other half remains in dnrkness, producing the phenomenon of equal day and night, all over tho world. . Tliene periods aro termed, from tho seasons in whioh they occur, tho autumnal and vernal equinox. At this time the sun rises about six o'clock in the morning, and sets nearly the same time in tho evening, Tn thc notional equinox the t un is passing from North to South, and oon.se qucntlyfrom this poriod thc days in tho North ern hemisphere gradually shorten until thc 21st of December, the winter solstice is reach ed, from which season they gradually length en to tho spring or vernal equinox, on thc 21st of March, when day and night are ogain equal. AH is well known, both thc autum nal and vernal equinoxes are distinguished over thc world by tho storms that prevail at theso seasons. Tho origin of suoh atmos pheric oomtootions has novcr been very sat isfactorily explained, but is supposed to ariso from tho united tidal action of tho sun and .;V.v moon on tho atmospheres; an action which nt tho timo of tho equinoxes is oxcrted with greater force than at any other period of tho year.

Prom a small ftVio'ct, wc have n turned to tho size attained in former years. This has not been accom plished with?ut severe effort and considerable outlay. Our patronage, though not ns largo as?n former years, is steady and Constantly increasing. A slight effort on thc part of friends would render thc Cou ni Kl?, moro re munerative- enable us thereby to make it more readable-and one of tho permanent institu tions of the District. Politically, on ominous cloud illumes thc prospect. Put wc arc not without hope. A brighter day will dawn for this great land, anti I its host of liberty-loving) energetic people. Let us have patience with our manifold trials and troubles; let us ply tho peaceful avoca tions of life, and bury the past in renewed conflicts for advancement in thc future. There is work for all-thc Church, tho Teacher, thc Laborer. Our District is rich in natural re sources, let us never tiro in developing them. Our climate and soil are the favored of tho earth, let us invite tho laborer and thc arti san to onrioh us by their labor and skill. Keeping these things in view, wc shall emerge from lowliness and poverty, to strength and pospcrity. Ours shall be the pleasing duty to assist io passing our people, "dry shod,'' from this pestilent Kgypt, to thc "promised land.'" Chorus help in the work. Midi facilities is one of the needs of this sec tion. Our anomalous condition makes " re construction," in this matter, difficult; but exertion is being made to restore mail arrange ments to their former desirable* condition. This will greatly enlarge our present circula tion and increase our patronage generally. Thc price of tho COURIER henceforth will be Two Dollars per annum, lt affords an excellent medium for Merchants and others to spread their business before the public.

A spacious arbor has been erected, and also a number of large, com fortable tents. On Thursday, thc 19th instant, religious S jrviocs commenced. For years thc condition of the country practically prevented theso ex ercises, but now thc bright hope of tho church was again to bo realised-tho workings, of'her government wero again to bo complete.

New juries will have to bo drawn before Court, unless the Commanding General issues nu enabling order permitting thc juries ns now drawn to serve. This order also appears in this issue. Charleston, Thc Fall Trade has opened briskly In this city, says the "Courier;" the wholesale es tablishments of Meeting, Ilnyue and East Bay-streets- aro teeming with stocks of goods embracing ovory variety to be found in any commercial centre, and merchants are flock ing boro from every portiou of this oud the adjoining States to ronow IjJ^onss relations with their old friends, nno/py)otioally to de monstrate their appreciation of tho streuuons and successful efforts which have been made to vend goods in this city, at prices as low and on terms as favorablo ns can bo. had in New York or any of thc cities of th? North. The aspect is promising in tho extreme, and the glad preon of " life in the old land yet" may be exultantly chanted in responso tb the croak ers who have heretofore prognosticated the departure of trade from our midst. This grat ifying condition of affairs has legitimately re sulted from thc intelligent, enofgetic and per tinacious exertions which have been, and aro stilt bein?; made by our merchants to retain and amplify their mercantile connections with tho peoplo of tho interior on a basis at once liberal and mutually profitable, and in it is to bo easily discovered thc fruition of an enterprise for which they have always been justly credited anda heak.iy Male of com mercial integrity that has ever - .characterized this business community. As a market,1 Charleston hafi.no superior south of Baltimore, and no competitor that can offer as many inducements to traders. She is, by well managed steamship lines, in almost daily communication with Boston, Philadelphia, New York, Baltimore, Savan nah, and the principal cities in tho u Land of Flower?," whilst hy railroad she is wedded to ne irby every town and village of importance in the Carolinas and Georgia. Besides the facilities sho affords for tho prompt and easy transmission of freight, there arc to be found attractions sufficient to secure her a monopoly of the business of the whole country, to which lier harbor is thc1 natural outlet, and which could illy be enumerated in the limits of au editorial notice. Not the least of these de serving the thoughtful attention of those un acquainted with the fact", must be mentioned the ability, anxiety and determination of her merchants to sell tftttir goods nt figures which will destroy ho illusion that purchases can be marlo more qdynnt-WAomry nt.tl*^i*-?-?tl?- '.' It is in evidenco t!itiT"Juiol. is not thc case, but rather that time, trouble and expense is saved by our country friends who come to this city to lay in their stocks. Another argument of j groat weight in our favor is to be found in the accommodation that' is granted to men of | known st inding and business reputation, how ever limited their transactions-an accommo dation not to be obtained in Northern cities, where IIIPII nre skeptical about a stranger's promise to pay." As to the variety of articles of every de scription which can bc bought, the stores themselves aro eloquent witnesses. We do not remember ever having seen better select ed, larger or more diversified collections of I goods thon now fill the large establishments of | Mayne, Meeting and Fast Bay streets, and when it is remembered thal these can be had as cheaply here as anywhere else in the Uni ted States, can be shipped wi thin'twenty-four hours to any part of South Carolina, and in twice that time as far West as Montgomery, and may bo relied on as being all they arc rep lesentcd, we can well understand' why thc city ?s being flooded'Uith trades people, and her merchants are reverting ?? the,very reas onable expectation of raising her speedily from her ashes, and re-establishing more firmly than ever before her rights to the patronage and support of thc interior trado. The Ladies' Fair, At Greenville, on the 7th, 8th and Otb in atant, for the benefit of tho Baptist Church in that place, promises to bo a most agreeable af fair.
