I darts. .1 *Mr. Qailp says he finds mnch less difficulty in keeping his word than in getting anybody to take it Some people think that the beast asith ten horns in Revelations is intended to represent the sin of drunkenness. ?- Dickens, in speaking of a friend, cays he is so long in the legs that he looks like the afternoon shadow ofBomebody else. -? All crops in Georgia, except peaohes and apples, are very poor. Nearly the entire State has suffered from a protracted draught, not enough cotton being made for domestic wants. Consequently, at the end of the year, the people will not have the .4UV4UD iJOglU kUQ WUiA U1 iCBWllUg U1C11 joined homes and broken fortunes. A oase is being prepared by the Stasdmen's Bureau in behalf of a negro formerly owned by John Minor Botts, to test the question whether persons recently held as slaves are not entitled to compensation for labor performed by them for their nasten since the date of Mr. Linooln's proclamation of emancipation. A pardoning bureau has been established at Washington, and John Wilson, late Third Auditor, has been designated as the Chief. He will enter upon the duties of the office in a few days. All applications * will.have to be made through him to the President. No application made by an attorney to the President will receive any attention. This will simplify the process very xnuoh.. " ??Governor Cartin, of Pennsylvania, a v. * !-!*? n *n: D&s mace, a requisiuoa on utoveruur rierpont, of Virginia, for Generals Eweil, Jenkins, and others, who have been indicted for banting fJhamberabarg. So far, no response has been given. Gen. Jenkins is beyond the reach of eivil or military authorities now, having died from the effects of wounds received in the Western part of the State. * The Provost Guard is being withdrawn from Macon, Ga., and the civil offi% eers are all resuming their duties, under drdem from Gov. Johnson. The spirits of the people are recovering, and business in all departments is improving rapidly. From . ' a series of papers relative to Georgia, now being published in the New York Meflropo* litan Record, it appears that the slaves in 1861 numbered 467,461, and their v&lue% was estimated at 8275,000,000. ?? The oaptain of a British schooner which- arrived at New Orleans on the 13th instant, reported that about a dozen desertera or Jisnbarved men from the TTmb>J e States army o^navy bad been engaged in * piratical operations on the eoast of Honduras, having murdered the crew of a*small * sohooner, and setting sail in it, captured several other vessels. They were last seen sear the coast of Cuba, with an English vessel in pursuit. Santa Anna is at present residing at the island of St. Thomas, in the .West Indies. He has issued a pronunciamento, in wkioh he deaoanoes the attempted.empire in Mexico, calls for a rally in favor of democracy, and urges the Mexioans to light against the invaders. He explains that his declaration in favor of French intervention was foroed upon him by requiring him to sign such a paper before he would be permitted to land in Mexico and visit his sic? ^wife, ?? The Wilmington (N. C.) Herald says that President Johnson has decided that pardon carries with it immediate restoration of all property, except slaves; that the Freedman's Bureau must give up at OD08 all property of the non-excepted classes who have taken the oath, and also of the excluded as soon as pariloned, even when the property is already in court; but in the latter oase the cost must be paid. This decision was given to Col. Short, of Louisiana, on the 14th ult. The Woodville (Mississippi) Re-pub lican of the 15th ultimo, states that such a conflict has arisen between Governor Sharkey, the military authorities, and Secretary Seward, as to give reason to believe the Governor, intends sending. in his resignation. Tho military, it appears, refused to obey a writ of habeas corpus issued by ' Judge Merwin, of Warren county. .Governor Sharkey telegraphed to Washington a statement of facts \ Secretary Seward replied that Mississippi was still under martial Uw, and the military were supreme. Mr. Riohardson, a correspondent of ibe New Y(Jrk Tribune, concludes a letter from Nevada as follows: "Nevada has torn, ed out about sixty millions of dollars in bullion, and is now producing nearly twenty millions annually. Bishop Simpson is con. ~<viQced that our silver resources arc suflijoient to pay off a national debt of twenty billions, present each returned soldier of the Union with a silver musket, and then - plate all onr war vessels with silver thicker than they are now sheathed with iron. It, is certain that onr ores are practically inexhaustible, and that the silver mining of-the United States is in its infancy." "We have dates from Gibralter to August 6. Cholera appears to be creeping Westward. The towns on the Eastern coast of .Spain, in their dread of the introduction of the epidemic, are imposing quartantine on eaoh other. A correspondent from Con-' stantinople under date of July 31, says "the cholera has greatly increased, and I am afr&id that during the last two or three days the cases mast havg, attained the nnmber of eight hundred odd daily, although, for some reason or other, the local papers do not give the nnmber of attacks. The mortality is about thirty to thirty live per cent., as near as 1 can learn, although some days it reaches fifty. South America is still the scene of slaughter and convulsion. The war between Paraguay and Brazil is raging fiercely. In a late naval conflict the Brazilians won a decisive victory over the Paraguayans,, but (he same time the latter invaded Brazil with an army of 7^000 men, who took possession of a large fortified place called Borga after a detperate conflict.- In the action between the fleets of tie two States, the Paraguay, ans, who commenced the attack near Co? rientes with feight steamers and six gunboats mounting very heavy guns, lost their Admiral who was killed, and 1,700 officers ' and men killed, wounded asd missing, be ? sides four steamers and all their gunboats. The Brazilian loss, though not so great, was considerable, ; v . . ; '?? The British bark, Exchange, was recently oleared from Charleston for Liver* pool, by Messrs. Willis & CJiisolm. The Charleston News says: "This is the first vessel that has taken a cargo from here for a foreign port sinoe the blockade has been relieved. Her oargo consists of one hundred and seventy-nine (179) bales of Sea Island, and eight hundred ;and forty-two (842) bales of Upland Cotton, valued at about two hundred thousand ($200,000) dollars.

DEATH OF COL.B. B7 BOYLSTON. We regret to learn from the News, that Col. R. B. BoYLSTONKa prominent lawyer of Fairfield District, died at his residence in Winnsboro', on Monday of last week.? He has several times served as a representative in the Legislature of this State, a&d at the last session was elected Speaker of the House. Col. Boylston was a native Charleston. . MESSRS. H. F. BAKER & CO. . Id to-day's paper will be. found tbe card of these gentlemen, whg have resumed tbe Commission and Forwarding business in Charleston. The members of this firm are personally known to us as men of integrity and excellent business capaoity. Any of our readers who require |agents in Charles* ton, we feel assured, can do no better than to entrust their business to the care of H. F. Baker & Co. THE STATE CONVENTION. This body, so pregnant with every interest to our State, were to meet yesterday, at Columbia. In our next, wo hope to j give "a summary" of its entire proceedings, which we will, if harmony prevails; in any instance, we have "a friend at court," who promises to keep us posted.? We do hope, that^ South Carolina will for once follow, and jhe will find no detriment in taking the example of her Mississippi 'daughter. "Chivalry," and "F. F. V.'s" are played out; let "comic jn sense" rale the hoar. Oar next paper will be an interesting' ae?those who may wish extras, had better speak in time. THE WETTHEB*. . We wish it. distinctly understood, thtf on this Monday, at 12 m., it looks very much like, rain, but it (what's it ?) has looked so for a week or two past, which ended in a sort of mizzle. Now, it has been our luck, when putting the paper to press, with an article on the drought, to be very apt to supply it to a large number of our readers in a deluge, whereby weJhave lost much in our character as rain-bows, or rain-orows, or weather Droohets. At this instant, we wish IT i 0 A be understood, that unless a different state of things turn up between now and publication day, our turnips will be non est inventus, and our peas and q's no better off, which will materially call attention to which side of our bread is buttered. If it does rain, right down, before this paper is printed, we wish to be understood as perfectly satisfied, because so many of our "chosen few" have to "tramp" to the Convention, and don't want the dust thrown in their eyes before they get there; and if it don't rain, we are also satisfied, because "poking up a dust" is a game that two can plaj at. Joking aside, (and dust, too) the Clerk of the weather oan not have taken the Amnesty Oath, or has mistaken its provisions; in either instance, we hope he will report with a full shower, at his earliest convenience, and eclipse the "waterfalls" mer. chants are tiow so anxious to introduce. We are very dry?net julep-wise. ?p-ma "TjngpnirHfPTaft t3o:bl? It will be reoolleoted by our readers, that up to the time appointed for deolaring the eleotion for members of the Convention, on ' Tuesday of last week, no return had been received from the "Feemster box." The. failure of the managers to report at the proper time, arose from a misapprehension on their part as to the day appointed for deolaring the eleotidn?they supposing it to be*on Wednesday, as of old. A statement of the ballot was brought up on Wednesday, showing that twenty-five votes were polled, of which Jtev. R. A. Ross, received 25; Col. W. C- Beatty, 25; A. 8. Wallace, Esq., 23 j Mr. J. N". MoElwee, 23; Wm. C." Black, Esq., 2; Col. Cad. Jones, 1 j and Maj. j. W. AveEy, 1. That box, had it been received in time to be reckoned, wonld not have ohanged the final result.? The only effect would have been to place A. S. Wallace, Esq., fifth on the list of those voted for, instead of Major J. W. Avery. ' . The total number of votes polled in the District is si? hundred and sixty-five. NEW PAPERS. Among our exchanges, since we h%ye resumed publication, we recognize several old friends with new faces. The Charleston Daily'News, by Cathcart, McMillan & Co., is a large, neatly printed, anctably conducted sheet, well worthy of publio support,^at the old rates, $10 per annum. The Daily Carolina Times, again shows us its "shining morning faoe," from Charlotte, now under the oonduct of Waring & Britton. The first named gentleman was conneoted with the Charlotte press for a time before the war, and is a pretty writer, while the "old salt," Br'itton, is still up to all sorts of paragraphs, that will make an interesting paper. J. E. Britton, loomsVorth with a triweekly Newt, from Winnsboro'; quite an interesting sheet, fall of life and vigor. George Pither, of Ghester, comes "onoe more unto the breeoh," with the old ^arufarc^which has made several attempts of late to keep its head a{>ove water. May it be successful this time. We are glad again to meet our old friends on the way?such re-unions are but the harbinger of a good time ooming. Let us do our duty towards bringing about sr consnmmAtinn an devnntlv to he wished for. bv giving ^a goad pull, a strong poll, and a poll all together." .. THE MAILS AGAIN. According to a Northern paper, Governor Pebry has addressed a letter to Postmaster-General Dennison, in which' he stateB "that the railroad companies in South Carolina are in a condition to carry the mails by their roads and by hacks, from the ends of their roads to the towns and Tib lages of the State." On the basis of snoh information as this, the Post Office Department has oontraoted with the Greenville and Colombia Railroad, one hundred and sixty-seven miles long, to carry the mails three times a week, to the twenty-five offices on its line, for thirty dollars a mile per year. Post Offices are being re-opened in different parts of Jthe State,- though we have heard of no action with reference to any in our own District. An exchange says : "Postmasters who were in possession of offices when the war commenced have had drafts or notices served npon them for a settlement- of their arrearages. SOine few have liquidated their indebtedness, while others express a willingness to pay "so soon as they can obtain the means for that purpose." . , 1-??? " > - * OUR RAILROADS. Some progress is being made towards, putting the railroadslhroughout this State, in operation agaip. The repairs on the King's Mountain Railroad is goiug forward. A large number of cars and engines, belonging to ether roads, are ?tanding on the traok in the vicinity of Chester, which very much impede* the work. We have been informed that arrangements are being made to place these oars and engines on "turn-outs." A train is run regularly over the road, on every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday from .Guthriesville?seven miles from Yorkville ?to within *one mile and a half of Chester. Haoks are provided between Yorkville and Ctithriesvilla for the convevance of pas sengers. We are satisfied that Mr. EaWIN, the President of the road is doing everything in his power, to again place as in communication, by railroad, with the "rest of mankind." Mr. Edward Thomas has recently been appointed Superintendent of the road, and will commence the discharge of his duties in a short time. The Charleston papers announce that five hnndred tons of railroad, iron have arrived at that port, for the Sooth CarolinaHaiiroad Company, which is already being used in relaying the track. The bridge over the Congaree was finished on the 31st ultimo, and it is expected that communication will be complete from Charleston, to within fifteen miles of Columbia, by the 20th of this month. By the middle of November, it is confidently asserted, trains will run through to Columbia,'uninterruptedly. " The Charlotte and South Carolina Bailroad Company are running trains regularly from Charlotte to the Catawba river, and from the river to within about one mile of Winnsbon/. The bridge over the Cntdwba has not yet been replaced, bnt we lean that Mr. William Johnson, President of the Company, has contracted with parties in Baltimore for one of iron, the construction of which is under the superintendence of a competent engineer. Several months will probably elapse before it is finished and put in place. Upon the completion of the Sonth Carolina road to Columbia, the Char- j lotte Company will oommence wprk at that point, whioh will very much' hasten the completion of tberoad. We hav# heard no conjectures as to when this road will probably be in running order throughout its entire length. N-k Tha Nnrth.FaHfflrn* Railroad, from Charleston, connecting with the Wilmington and Manchester Bailroad at-.Florence, is in operation and trains are running over it daily. ' The Wilmington and Manchester road from Wilmington to Kingsyille is in running order throughout its entire length.? The same may be said of the Chetaw and Darlington Bailroad, from Cheraw to Florence. We have no information with referenoe to the progress mating towards the completion of repairs on the Spartanburg and Union, Greenville'end other roads. '" THE CONVENTION ELECTION. The election for members of the Convention throughout the State, so far as we have heard, passed off quietly. The result in bat's few of the distriots has reached as, *nd we append the names of those eleoted : York?Rew R. *A. Ross, Col. W. C. Beatty, W. C. Blaok, Esq., and Col. Cad. Jones. * ' ' Chester?Maj.

GOVERNOR'S PROCLAMATION. It will be seen by reference to the Proclamation of Governor Perry, in another column, that whatever differences may have existed between the civil and military authorities in this State heretofore, have been satisfactorily adjusted. The - Governor in bis proclamation says: "That in all cases where freedmen or per* sons of color are conoerned, the Courts of the Provost Marshals shall have exclusive cognizance to try and adjust them, for the present; and that other oases shall be heard and adjud:c?ted by the civil courts, municipal authorities and civil officers, nnder and according to the laws of South Carolina.? That the civil courts shall be opened under the Provisional Government, and all civil and municipal officers be allowed to resume their offioial duties and discharge them freely without interruption on the part of the military authorities.". Hereafter, Governor Perry's headquarters will bo at Columbia, to which place all communications to him should be addressed. MERE-MENTION. A list of South Carolina prisoners who died at Point Lookout, Maryland, from the 1st of December, 1863, to June 1st, 1S65, may be found at the Enquirer Office. General Robert E. Lee has acoepted the Presidency of Washington College, at Lexington, Virginia. The Phceni:c says a daily mail is now being conveyed between .Columbia and tlyj terming of the Charlotte Railroad. The New York papers say that up to the 10th of.August, but five hundred pardons had been granted by President Johnson.* It is reported that R. M. T. Hcntee will soon be* released from Fort Pulaski, Savannah, Georgia. Governor Parsons, of Alabama, has telegraphed the President, to suspend aotion on all petitions for pardons recommended^by him- No oauge is assigned for this course on the part of the Governor.* " The faculty has announced that the Medical College of Charleston will resume its sessions early in November, next. The State prisoners at Fortress Monroe are now allowed the daily papers. ? Agents of a traveler's insurance company are posted at all the railway stations in Chicago, and go through each train just before its departure, with liberal offers of insaranoe for the lives and limbs of the passengers. The low rate of premium, ten cents a day, must be highly encouraging to those starting on a journey. '"The New. York Herald states that there have been daring this, year, one hundred and twenty-eight casualties by Railroads in the United States, causing the death of two hundred and sixty-six persons. The oity of Atlanta, Ga., has amended its penal oode, so as to place blacks on an equality with the whites. The official" report of Grant's losses since taking oommand of the army of the Potomac in 1864, foot up 90,000. It is asserted that over 8,000 Southerners, chieflyyoung men, have settled in New York oity, since the surrender of the Southern armies. The Herald intimates that England is making extensive warlike preparations in Canada. *The fiist baleof the new cotton crop of Texas was sold in New Orleans on the 16th ult. On that 4ay over4,000 bales changed hands?the heaviest operations of 1 any one daysuftethe war oonimenoed.' The Atlantic Telegraphic Company has resolved to lay Anew cable in Jane nest, and piok pip the old one afterwards. 'The Richmond Times says that the tobaeoo crops of several years are nOw brought forward for the market, and that at almost every railroad station there are great quantities awaiting transportation./ ?

Aocounts from Havana represent the yellow fever as raging to an unusual extent.. Apprehensions are felt in New York in regard to it. *The receipts from Internal Revenue are add to be averaging one and a quarter million of dollars a day."* The cholera has reaohed Marseilles, France. The National Bank, at Wilmington, was robbed on the 30th ultimo, of about $100,000 in Government bonds. 9 The number of deaths resorted in the. papers throughout the country now-a-days exceed the marriages in the proportion of five to one." Mr. Quilp says that most men?who complain that they have nothing to do, are joat about equal to the task. There are at .present some miscreants in Kiohmond who have neither respect for the living nor the dead. It seems that the monument ereoted some years ago to the memory of Hxnry Clay, in* that city, has been totally destroyed and defaced, the vandals breaking off ttfo fingers of the right hand of the statue, and otherwise injuring it.*"- 'There are. seven thousand six hundred and ninety-three liquor dealers and two hundred and seventy-nine lottery policy dealers in New York.
