Editor Umon Tims*.?Xl*? earliest history ne have of North l'acolet is given by Dr. Kamoay, iu hit history of South Carolina, where he says thai Col. Clark, of Virginia, with a Colony, about the year 1755, settled on l'acolet River? the only* settlement then made in that part of the State. Thia settlement was just below Kasterwood's Shoals, on the North aide of Paoolet. That from that date to 1775 the Country in. creased rapidly with settlors. There were great facilities for raising/Rook, from the profusion of native grasses and canes ; moet all the bottom lands being cane-tyrak.es at that time, tarnished an ur failing supply of food for eteokat all seasons. Buffaloes were so plentiful then that four or five hunters, with degs, could kill from ten to twenty in one day; that Bears were so numerous, one huntsman in the Fait season could kill two or three thousand pounds of bear meat in one day; that thero appeared lobe no eud to the Turkeys, Deers, Wild Cats, Panthers, Beavers, Otters, &c., and a supply of fish for all who might wish.

The first Iron Works in South Caroliua were erected by a Mr. Buflington, in the year 1788. (Supposed to be at the place lately occupied by the Cherokee Iron Wooks, and were destroyed by the Tories during the revolutionary war, but were rebuilt in the year 1783, after Peaco with the mother Country.) There is yet a sufficient quantity of Iron ore in that neighborhood to run many works for another century, and all the water power needed for auy number of works. Many of M?r best citizens are the descendants of those, who, during the war of the revolution, made their homes in the lonesome cane brakes on Thicketty creek and Broad river for five long, weary years, while the Scoilites or Tories wcro in the ascendancy. During this time all the horrors of a real fratiicidal war was carried on over this country. It was to Mr. Samuel Jeffries mills on Broad river, that Maj. John Nuckels had gone, with his little boy, to get his corn ground into meal, and having^* remain all night at the mill, was taken fromnhls bed and * boy during the night by a party of Tories a short distance^ from the house, and shot in the head. They then cast his body into a hole made by a blown up tree and left him there, The son and meal were sent homo, without the boy know ing what had become of his father. , Col. Furgersou, of King .Mountain fame, camped one night near ElBcthcl, on his march to the mountains, and a l'arty of Whigs, having their * hiding place on nn Island in the crcok near by coming out at night to forage, ran up on the British aud came near being taken. It was at Glandyburg that the ubiquitous Ilorsc Shoe Robinson and Mnj. Butler of the Continental Army were captured by Habersham and his party, after a desperate encounter. Enough o1 this. Little news among us of North Uacolct. I believe all the good people have an abiding faith that our Hampton will never yield to any power. Our faith and confidence in him are unbounded and we trust in him as in a Savior. llamlct Jeffries' mills, on Abingdon's creek, * washed away on the night of the 25th ult?dam, B house and all. Quite a loss to liim and also to the neighbors. The rain was tremendous, but the sills of the dam were not securely bolted. The citizens of Thickctfy and Gilkies creeks have taken into consideration the importance ^ to them of draining their lands laying on said creeks, and on tho 17th ult., a majority of litem, after due consideration, formed themselves into a Body. Politic, ntidur the drainage Laws of this State, to be known as the "Thicketty and Gilkic's Creek Draining Corporation," and arc about ready to go to work at this very important undertaking. i It is hoped that this company may persevere, 1 und that success may crowu its etl'orts, for much depends on the accomplishment of this desirable object, connected with the peace and happiness of a large portion oV North Pacolet. Uev. W. L. Brown prcnchcJ at KIBct licl on 1st Sabbath. Text?"Ephraim is joined to his Idols?let him alone." The subject was well handled and so plain that all could understand and apply it. The efficient Siipcrintcndant of the Sunday r School at that place has opened the school for the present Season with one hundred and thirteen enrolled Scholars nnd expects to increase the number to one hundred and fifty by the 1st May. Parents, both mothers and fathers, should join the Sabbath School and give an cxamplo to their children that they will not be ashamed to follow when thoy too become grown. The morul influence of a good Sabbath School is incalculable, not only on the Scholars, but has a recoiling influence for good on ull the neighborhood. Parents who wish to give their childron a good chance in life should be sure aud train them up as they should go for, "as the twig is bent, the tree is inclined." L. Woitns Fiti.y Si'OKkn.?An exchange has the following truthful and appropriate remarks on the subject of newspaper patronage : Publishers of newspapers, and more particularly local newspapers, have to depend muinly upon tlicir advertising columns for their support. Yet how many arc there who seein not to realize this fact. Instead of giving their paper a liberal advertising patronage, tlicy perhaps give it nono; and if a levee or entertainment is got up in the place, the paper is expected to notice it for nothing. Now if all the patrougc that a paper can expect is that of the locality for whose interest It works, it would seem thnt every one should give it the advertising that legitimately belongs to it, and not try to get it without paying for it.? There is a class of people that seem to begrudge every dollar that goes to their local papers; nnd still borrow it. and read it. and arc the severest critics of its shortcomings. The publisher has to pay for labor and paper, and every notico of nny kind, in the nature of un advertisement lie ought to have his pay for. lie has got to get his living out of his advertising columns and nny society or individual can with just as much proprioty beg five dollars of any other individual, as to expect it gratuitously of a newspaper. Any inan who does not think enough of his county paper, and every trader who does notbolicvc in advertising, should move into some town where they have no paper.' . . Information Wa\tki?.?Mr Thomas J. Childs, of Pickens, desires information, if any can be obtained, of his son llenjnmin, aged IK years, who left home on Siindny morning I he 1 Hth instant, without giving any one uny information ofhis intentions of lcavingor where lie was going. Said hoy is small to his age. rather black hair, black eyes and sallow complexion. Any one knowing anything concerning the whereabouts of the said boy will greatly otili'lge his distressed father by addressing him at Pickens Court Mouse,'1 M. (' in? fVom &n* if change," in tb? cultivation "bT this del [iciou svegetable, as now is th< time to sow I the seed : * "The seed should first be sown in a hot bed or cold frame, if convenient, though they might now be sownun any rpck- fiaist spot in {lie garden. At* soau a? the plants uro ^ww of.three inches high, transplant temporarily to a well prepared bed in the gardcu, where they should remain until six to eight inches high, when they aro ready to be finally transplanted in the trenches. Dig trenches two sud a half feet apart, twelve inches deop and ton to twelve inches wide, fill to within three inches of the top with well rotted stable mauure and top Soil from the woods or leaf mold, well mixed together. Set outthe plant injthese trenches (lifting each plant with a trowel, so as to get all the young roots and retain ths dirt around them.) twelve or fifteen incliesapart, and giro them a good watering. If you find it inconvenient to take so much pains, you may omit the first transplanting and transplant in the treuches directly from the hot bed, or you uiay sow in the original trenches and thin out to a nroner slum! Itnt nmlcr th? latter method, especially, we would not promise any great degree of success. During July and August keep the plants growing by stirring the surface between and around the plants, and by giving tHem thorough watering occasionally. Never allow the ground to become baked. In the latter part|of August or (he first part of September, begin to draw the earth up around the plants to blanch them and continue this through Autumn. But never hoe or earth up when the ground* is wet or the plants nre moistened with dew, and be carefhl not to let tlio dirt get into the heart or the crown is apt to rot." Gov. Hampton Declines a Formal Ukclption. ?Washington, March 'JO.?Messrs. ((orris, Alexander and some half dozen other prominent Democrats of the district waited upon General Butler in order to make arrangements for a formal reception of Governor liampton. Genera' Butler received them very courteously, and, upon learning the object of their visit, said he did not think such a thing would be advisable, as Governor Hampton desired to make his visit as quietly as possible. This evening the matter was mentioned to Governor Hampton, and he expressed his gratification that the matter had been declined by General Butler. A Fiend Meets His Just Reward ?Cincinnati, March 30.?Near Walton, Ky., Tuesday night, a negro named Parker Mayo nttcmptod an assault upon the person of a 9 year old daughter of William Murray, during the absence of her parents. The child was seriously injured. The next day he attempted the sumo thing 011 n farmer's wife residing in the some vicinity. At about 2 o'clock lllis mornincr his hndv ?a? found hanging to the limb of a tree about a mile from the town. Duel. to thk Death.?Topeka, Kansas, March 28.?At G o'clock tl is evening a shooting affray occurred belweeu J. Clarke Swayse, editor of tho lllade, and John W. Wilson, formerly of the Topaka Times, in which Mr. Swayse was killed. The testimony beforo the coroner's jury shows that Swayse drew his revolver first, but that both fired simultaneously. Wilson received only a slight flesh wound on one cheek. Wilson was arrested and is now iu jail. Swiyya* was shot through the heart. [aisVKUTISHMENT.] . ,v THE MOTIVE POWEB. The Scientific American, dated March 31, 1877, says : "Mr. Morgan, of Columbia, S. C\, has invented a perpetual motion, which is to operate as follows : Upon tho periphery of a large wheel are arranged a seilcs of rubber tubes, one-half of which are filled with water, [or any other fluid.] As the wheel rotates, the tubes on one side of the wheel become filled, while those on the opposite side are emptied; a preponderance of weight being thus maintained on one side of the wheel, the latter will continue to rotate until something wears out, or the world comos to an end^ ' 'Mr. lUchnroTOzer, oho of the principal machinists of the place has given a certificate, setting forth his belief in the practical success of the machine, nnd Mr. Morgan has issued a very fluttering financial prospectus, headed : The Morgan Self-People Motive power. No Fire! No Stcaiu ! No Explosions ! No Engineer !? No Expense! Nature's Forces Utilized! The Power llial is to Revolutionize the World !? There's Millions in it !' To aid in procuring the means to construct a working model, the inventor issues certificates of one hundred dollars each, payable at par as soon as success is insured and the money therefor realized. These certificates he is now ready to sell for one dollar each, or one cent for each dollar of their actual face figures. It is clear that Mr. Morgan is a better inventor than financier, or lie would never have put his shares on the market at so low a figure. He evidently needs the assistance of an able person, who has experience in financiering similar enterprises." I am much obliged to the Scieuti/le American for this favorable notico of my invention, and now if the people will come forward and take these one hundred dollar certificates at one dollar each, they will help mc to build tho working model, and in less than six months they will get back their hundred dollars for each dollar invested. As to the financial management, I admit 1 am not deep in that, yet 1 think I see my way clear, far I do not agroe to pay the money until 1 have made tb-out'of the invention, and when I have it made I can-afford to pay it, nud will have all I want left. Yetr if any perSo^af, financial ability would like te take held and manngc it, I am ready to make an aWnnngement to that etl'ect. 110BT.
