The population of the United States is supposed to amount to upwards of thirtytwo millions, according to the census now in progress. Bryant, the poet and senior editor of the New York Post, is at the head of the New York Black Republican electoral ticket. A poor place truly^for a man of genius. Gen. Franklin Pierce, Ex-President of the United States, will probably be one of the Democratic (Breckinride) candidates for elector for the State at large, in New Hampshire. The Providence Journal having in-1 timated that Mr. Lincoln has given hisl "countenance" to the Republican cause, the Taunton Gazette says it cannot be called a "handsome present." The Columbia Carolinian says that the total amount of cotton sold in that rnarNi ket from the first of September, 1859, to . *ijtbe first of September, 1860, was 40,088 bales. A thirty-two mile race was run at St. Joseph, Mo., on the 19th inst. One of the horses gave out at the twenty-eighth mile, but the other completed the run.? The time made is not stated. The corner-stone of the principal building of the University of the South, will be laid, with appropriate ceremonies at University Place, Franklin county, Tennessee, on the 10th of October. The New York Tribune heads the accounts of the horrible abolition machinations in Texas with the words: "Texas Fright." Sp the assassination of Virginia citizens by its devotees, was denominated "The Big Scare." Rather odd objects to make merry over. Fiddle away, Nero! In re-coppering the guano packet Josephine, at Honolulu, the sword of a sword-fish was discovered, broken off iD the hull of the vessel, under its counter, and about four feet from the rudder post, it having passed through the copper, the felting, and a three inch oak plank. By late advices from Texas, we learn that Gen. Sam. Houston has formally withdrawn fron; any further participation in the canvass for the Presidency, having at length become convinced that his chances were hopeless. The "Hero of San Jacinto" earnestly urges the policy of a combination of all conservative men on one Union man. The New Orleans papers state that the late acts of incendiarism in Texas, and the evidence which gains credit there of more diabolical designs, have created an excitement in that State which it is not pos- I sible for those at a distance fully to estimate. A stranger cannot travel without annoying surveillance, and after being arrested and closely examined by the authorities. In Burraah, when a young woman is taken ill, her parents agree with the physician, that if he cures his patient he may have her for his trouble, but if she dies un- , der his medicine, he is to pay them her full , value. It is stated that successful physi- , cians have large families of females, who < have become their property in this manner. , ...... \n abolition convention met at Syracuse, New York, on the 29th August; and brought out new candidates for the Presidency and Vice-Presidency : for President, Gerritt Smith, of New York; for Vice-President, Samuel McFarland, ol Pennsylvania !

We have been informed by reliable authority, that in the lower part of this county, the people are reduced to the most straightened circumstances in consequence i , of the scarcity of provisions. The suffer-L ing is confined chiefly to the poorer classes |( who have net the means of providing themselves with the wants of life; and we un- ( derstand they are threatening that if provision is not made immediately to secure those wants unto them, they will take them k*, 'irms from those who haDDen to ujr iv/ivv rr have them. We sincerly hope the picture is overwrought, that the real condition of things is not as bad as represented; but if it i9, steps ought immediately to be taken to provide the means of subsistence for them. ? Clayton (-4/a.) Banner. M. Jobard, a French savant, has astounded the scientific world. He has discovered a way of suspending animation,: and also of bringing the dead back to life. He professes to be able to restore a drowned man after two day's immersion, and a frozen subject after ten day's "oblivion" Provided a culprit's neck be not broken, he can be brought to life after hanging a whole day. Mr. Jobard, with great sympathy for the "ills which flesh is heir to," suggests that medical tneu should immediately make themselves acquainted with the secret of his invention, so that the poor and unfortunate might be suspended till better times came around, and the victims of thwarted love may enjoy the forgetfulness of a prolonged catalepsy. A commission has been named to examine M. Jobard's system of suspending animation. For the Yorkville Enquirer. gloc THE DEATH OP WOLFE.' eacl BY H.

It enters into the very t WO I ;rowth and texture of our being, like the food ^ . vhich we eat from a father's table. In a well- ' irdered home, the chances are many, that a boy >f vicious disposition by nature, may be trained surre hurro ip to be a respectable and useful, if not a model nan. But a badly-governed household is often atal, even to the best of dispositions. If the ^rom lomestic air which the child inhales be poisoned ^cc nth bickering and selfishness ; if his temper be ^ear(^ inbridled ; if his moral propensities remain un- { ducated?what can he be prepared for except week rime and misery ? Under the lax discipline, purpt narking the times, Young America is fully a geD ^ . that c ;rown at fifteen years of age?throwing off the perQ1 mrental authority, and asserting his right divine land, o govern himself, and do as he may please.? The j iluch of our trouble as a nation can be traced ^ie c< negrt o this as the cause. For the child who habit- t{jat lally disrespects the wisdom and authority of This lis parents, is preparing to set up a "higher aw" to himself, when ripened by years, and play he traitor to his country.

Rusfc Turl Small faults may bring great unnappiness to the home circle. A home where there is no love, is a world where it is always night?or death. But a little selfishness, mistrust, favoritism, intion. dulgence, envy, strife?a very, very little?will . keep naturally loving families in a constant ferment. The truth is, love unannealed of selfish- , Mob ness is a vulgar despot! He wants all: or, . . , ., , erro failing in this, for spite he will have nothing.? . Charity must make him strong and self-sacrificial; or nothing but the constant stuffing of his p vanity can assuage his fretfulness. For this ^ reason the words of the poet are often too sadly p true:? unpi "Alas ! how LIGHT a canse may move r Dissension between hearts that love!" turj Home hearts read each other at a glance.? how Deep within them is ever a thorn of domestic Liot bitterness, or a gushing fountain of sweet and drie tender love. There is an old feeling?the growth cut of long, long, years?a feeling of doubt and plan >m, or of trust and light?that springs up in ta i one's bosom at the others' presence. We ti w not whence these feelings come, nor whith- r< hey go?they are so like either the dirgeful ti I of wintry winds among tombstones, or the ti et-voiced breezes of the merry spring-time, ying with the roses.

Hicks, the pirate of oyster sloop notoriety, who was ostensibly hung or Bedloe's island on the 12th July, has come again to life; and is now in Poughkeepsie, N r Y., with his sister, Mrs. Gavan. After his ex1 ecution, his body was placed in the hands o Drs. Bell and O'Keilly of Brooklyn, who bj means of Dr. Vergnes' Electro chemical bath 8 and inflation of the lungs, &c., brought it to life The neck was much bruised but not broken n and the left eye is out. The patient is stil ^ abed, but will recover entirely. He denounce: '* the biography and confession which has been ala ready gotten up of him, as a lie. He will make ? his true confession to Stephen C. Masset, who i? ' now visitiDg him at Poughkeepsie. "Pink," the New York correspondent of thi Charleston Courier, treats this whole statemen as a "miserable hoax."

Juare: !* was making active preparations to withstand th< lm expected attack ; and the people of the city were looking forward to it with great enthusiasm.? ri This enthusiasm was occasioned by the beliel that, in such an event, the United States wouli assist the Juarez government. Indeed Juare: t has already dispatohed a courier with letters t< _t our government, asking public assistance, or a least the privilege of raising volunteers and pro lt curing arms and munitions of war within our ter j ritory. Our government has yet made no repb 3 to this request. If the war breaks out, Juare: ((j will likely make a desent upon Cuba, in whicl . case the formal consent of our government to hi wishes will bo perhaps little worth?fillibustej: .. will probably supply him with as many "volun teers, arms and munitions of war" as he cai use to advantage. ie The papers bring us accounts of a deep laid and horrible plot to set fire to the town o ps Selma, Ala., on some night in September, an id murder the inhabitants escaping from the flames e- Two white men (Lem.

The Selma papers advise other districts of the South "to see that no torches are preparing for the destruction of their homes, and that no knives are forging for the butchery of their mothers, wives, daughters and sisters." CONTRIBUTORIAL. n The Rev. Dr. Cheever. f We see that the Negrophilists in London have recently voted resolutions of welcome to Dr. Cheever, of New York. They express at the same time their exalted admiration for him, and immense sympathy with his anti-slavery laborB _ in the United States, r Dr. Cheever is rising in distinction among the abolitionists. He has been ranting long years, 8 and soundly too. It is time that his reward 8 come. His tour to Europe is in the same direc lion. Ordinarily, when we differ from a serious man tt upon so grave a matter as this, we have respect for his opinion, though we dissent; and leave 3 him to balance accounts with his conscience and 0 his God. ^ We have unfortunately (it may be,) lost faith 0 in this enthusiastic advocate of emancipation. Years ago we read with a great deal of plea0 sure his books of travel?"The Pilgrimage to ' Mount Blanc," and "The Pilgrim in the Shadow of the Jung-Frau"?and we deemed him a tern1 perate man. And so, the first opportunity we ? had, we went to hear him preach, at his own t church, in the city of New York. He is a tall " man, slender, having dark hair; a marked face * with prominent brows and high cheek bones ; 7 angular in person, and in gesture earnest but > not graceful. He does not have the air of a man i preaohing from himself. We mean, his presence, voice, and person are not all aglow and in harmony with the matter of hissermom?or speech, 8 rather. He wanted the air of sincerity. He was r earnest enough, but it was the earnestness of an 1 attorney. I His text was some sentence from the history " of Joseph, from which he at first labored to de1 dace the infamy of Joseph's brothers in selling } him into slavery. He then maintained that that 1 infamy lay at the bottom of all slavery, but was ^ only the beginning of the sin of slave-owning.? 1 And, finally, that the Southern slave-owner was responsible before God for all this cumulative r and aggravated atrocity. That, we think a fair synopsis of Dr. Cheever's i sermou the morning we heard him. i If we misjudge a good man in all this, we are i sorry. i Our admiratiou for the "Pilgrim," who had delighted us iu the "Shadow of the Jung-Frau," ' subsided rapidly. One more image had been dashed down upon > the floor of our Pantheon of earthly great ones. : Such is life. Ascending Table Rock. Those of our readers who have gone up those rickety old steps, are aware what a task it is to ! ascend Table Rock in that way. It is some 1 years since we were there. We were alone, save ' our guide, and we went up in undemonstrative 2 silence; and yet we were all the while duly ap! preciative of the homespun heroism of the achieveI ment. : Jones, however, has been there this summer ; ' and one of his letters has fallen into our hands. r It was addressed to his friend, and seems to be f written with a view to answer some skepfioism in the mind of his friend as to whether Jones - really would go up the steps, or back out. i We leave Jones now to speak for himself, s premising that Old Gaston is one of the Table , Mountain Guides. The party had first visited the base, Silver-Leaf Pool, and all that, f Jones writes:?"We returned to the path r that leads to those confounded steps and steeps. , Now you will say,?'Who the deuce didn't know , you'd do that; but did you go up (hem steps ?' ; Well, hold on; I'll tell you directly, that is af1 ter a while. The party, little girl and all, went 3 up, except the lady and myself. We didn't have . a jolly time?felt mean myself. Those who had i ascended kept urging us to come. Old Gasi ton came down and besought us both. At length the lady said to me,?'If you will go, sir, I will." > What was to be done ? I told Gaston to cont duct the lady up. He did so; and there I was > left alone. Old Gaston returned for me. Now . comes the 'rub.' With fear and trembling I 3 approached the foot of the awful steps, Gaston behind me. I had gone but a little way before I discovered that I had suddenly formed a most amazing attachment for those tame tteps. I embraced them most tenderly and clung to them t most affectionately. But up I went, not 'looking back.' Ne'er a pillar of salt would there r have been in a certain place had a certain in( dividual been as punctilious on that matter as I was! But, at last I 'come it'?got up, entirely , 'up ; and then I was delighted. I was fully ret paid for every wabble I made in my terror, and for every drop of perspiration I shed." Jones was triumphant. Vvle le Jones ! \ Woman. ? Though the renowned St. Augustine is one of ! the veriest saints in the calendar, many of the . events of his earthly life and many of his opininno ton iiwlipdfn that he had a larcre exnerience 1 ? ? in the actualities of human life. It is reasonable, . in view of his ecclesiastical relations to infer , that his knowledge of womankind was hardly through henpeckedness like poor old Socrates; . but, beyond all question, the great St. Augustine did have a hard time somehow, sometime, somewhere, of which woman was the cause.? We know so, from this?He wrote :? "Believe me, that if all the heaven were paper, and all the sea ink, all the stars pens, and all the angels scribes, they could not detail the craftiness of women."?(Xon possunt descriiere astutiam mulierum.) 2 7 Verily, St. Augustine had been bit. Then, as a contrast to that, how exquisitely P beautiful is this stanza:? , " 'Tis even thus, when in life's storm, Hope's star to man grows dim, z An angel kneels in woman's form, 3 And breathes a prayer for him." - J no tmo no !? io hnnntifnl Tt is t AULI It 13 JUOt ao VI uv t?o 1V id wvw?w.... - by Morris.

It was rumored 3 here some time since that Allan was dead, but seemingly conflicting statements, and errors in the dates of letters, induced the belief that it a was all a hoax. Allan, before leaving for the Choctaw Nation, prepared a memorandum of his debts and directed them to be paid out of his present crop, and, we believe, made a formal f will. Allan, being the oldest of the Catawba d tribe, was considered and revered by them as , Counsellor. He had, by industry and economy, accumulated the means of a comfortable and - - - - i u.i v ? c independent liveiiuooa.

We had the pleasure, on Tuesday evening, of j listening to the first pf a course of two Lectures before the Yorkville Lyceum on Astronomy, by < this fine scholar and distinguished Charlestonian. 1 The Lecture was an able, lucid and highly eat- , 1 isfactory survey of the Ptolemaic and Copernican theories, and of the structure, relations and ' appearances of the Solar System. Moj. Stevens ( > is a man of unusual ability ; and brings the life and warmth of one who is in lore with his sub- I ject, to its discussion. His calm and philosoph- . ical, beaming and benignant "personelle" sug- 1 gests the two leading thoughts of the Lecture, namely: the simplicity of the most majestic truths; and the humbling* subduing yet exalting ( effect of all true science. At the close, the ( speaker was greeted with hearty applause by the 1 audience, and a shower of boquets from the j ladies. We will endeavor to give a more extended no- < tice of both Lectures in our next issue. "Ellen Campbell." ; This number of the Enqdibee contains the last chapter of this exceedingly interesting and brillion* atnrv Wo fflel ftHsured that its manv ' readers will retain a grateful remembrance of Mrs. Ewart, for such a contribution to their entertainment; and will welcome her return to our columns with undiminished heartiness.? With many of them she has already become a favorite. The only fault her severest critics have found with "Ellen Campbell"?to us not a fault?is that it is too long. Others have shown the futility of this objection by saying ''they could read it a year." We hope the fair author will be induced to carry out her original intention of publishing this story in book form. We are honest in the opinion that in some respects it is equal if not ' superior to Beulah; while in no point does it fall ( far short of that splendid fiction. In bidding ^ her a grateful?but, we are glad to say, only temporary?adieu, we wish the fair and gifted ( author of "Ellen Campbell" the autorial success * which she merits. Bailey's Varieties. ] We have been informed that this troupe will visit Yorkville, this evening, (Thursday) and give one of their entertainments. Oar exchanges in the Western part of the State, speak of the performances as being excellent. They have recently been at Spartanburg, and from the Spartan of a late date, we take the following paragraphs : "Since Friday night "Bailey's Varieties" t have been the amusement of our people. Prior ( to coming here they had been to Greenville, where their performances were so highly appreciated as to consume two of the nights designed for this place. "Having witnessed several of their performances, we can truly say that the equal of Bail- t ey's Varieties is seldom met with in travelling ^ companies. The dramatic representations are . excellent; the dancing superb ; the vocalization L respectable; the dissolving views beautiful. In f short, as a whole, here we have had nothing comparable to it, as a quiet, unexceptionable amusement; and consequently the patronage was good each night." A Work of Art. In our village grave yard, a beautiful monu- c ment has recently been erected to the memory of 1 Col. I. D. Witheespoon?an ornament to the t name and the place, and in a high degree credit- ] able to the genius, skill and workmanship dis- ( played in the marble-yard at home. The design and execution are Maj. Hare's exclusive handi- i work ; and-in point of style, as well as in elabo- ^ rate finish, it is equal to any work of the kind we have anywhere admired. I Our friends need only to examine this fine work of art, to be convinced that Maj. Hare is capable of executing any order, however exacting, that may be entrusted to him ; and that, certainly, we have no excuse for going abroad to procure fitting decorations for the resting place of those whom we have loved. A comparison nf Viiq nrinpq with those of Charleston and Co w* ***M r**w? "? -- ? lumbia, we have found to be in Mr. Hare's favor ; and as this is the sufficient argument, we trust that our grave-yards will hereafter attest our regard, not only for ov.r dead, but for the living amongst us. ' We ought, perhaps, to give a minute descrip- < tion of such an unusually exoellent work. A visit to the grave-yard, however, will amply i compensate all who are lovers of the beautiful . in art, and will convey a far higher appreciation . of this masterpiece, than can be given by the pen.

I have taken some pains to obtain the most reliable information in reference to the crops in our State, and as far as I have been able to learn, no considerable portion of the State has suffered any serious injury from the drouth, except those counties lying west of the Ouachita river. The corn and cotton crop in Drew couoty, are both unusually good. We have had an abundant crop of all kinds of fruits and garden vege tables?the crop of matt is said to be very heavy, which will keep stock-hogs fat during the winter without the use of corn. I have no idea that the present crop of corn will command more than 50 cents per bushel from the heap. Many of our farmers calculate very confidently on ^ gathering a bale of cotton per acre.

Washington, August 81.?New Orleans dates if Tuesday last are received, containing Texas lews. New events were daily occurring in various jarts of that State, adding considerably to the sxcitement already existing there. Among other things, it is stAted that a man lamed Pearce has been arrested on the charge >f being concerned in the burning of the town >f Henderson, and that the proof is almost postive against him. The people are driving from the upper Connies of the State every individual the least susjectcd of Abolitionism. The town of Mount Vernon has been destroyed jy incendiaries, one of whom was caught and iung. A plan to burn Sulphur Springs had been dia:overed. A slave negro preacher acknowledged hat he and others had set apart a certain time :o burn all the dwellings in that place, and comnit other depredations; and then, in case they :ould not whip out the whites, they were to take ill the horses they could lay their bands on and iy to the Indian nation. A white man named Taylor, who had made legroeB his only companions, had been ordered :o tret his travelling card immediately, or be langed. Ad attempt was made to burn Indiaaola, bat t was discovered in time to prevent a serious 088. The Crockett Argxu says that considerable excitement exists in that and the adjoining conn:y of Anderson. Several barns and one dwelling lad been burned. These acts of incendiarism were directly traced to negroes. A white man implicated with the negroes had seen hung near lone. A plot to barn and destroy had been discovered among the negroes in Tyler Prairie. Various persons had been ordered to leave the State. Vigilance Committees were continually forcing. : Convention Proceeding*.

Sirs:?Dyspepsia, with its numberless associates, took up its abode with me, in opposition to the skill of many of the most celebrated physicians, until the spirit was willing (if no relief could be found) to surrender and bid adieu to its earthly tabernacle, when I was induced, by the urgency of a friend, to try THE OXGENATED BITTERS, little dreaming that the Gilead was n the boundless sea of patent medicines, as it vas the first draught I was ever induced to quaff. But thanks be to God, it was a balm, and a most ifficient and grateful one, too. The most aggravating symptoms in my case were immude ate and irregular beating of the heart immediitcly after taking food, attended with great jrostration, and very frequently violent attacks? >f palpitation, lasting from twelve to twentyour hour9, leaving the stomach so perfectly jowerless that even a spoonful of milk or rice vater would seem burdensome. I commenced >y taking half a teaspoonful?the extent was s? ull one. I was very persevering until I ha^ aken three bottles; since then, at intervals, I lave taken two more. I began to realize its genial effects immediatey; besides, it is extremely grateful and refreshng as a beverage, which is a charm that but ew medicines can boast of.
