"CONTRIBUTORIAL." BY ,JAS. WOOD DAVIDSON. COLUMBIA, 80UTH CAROLINA. 14TH JANUARY, 1887. The Rural Southerner. This weekl.v was announced for the 3rd instant. It did not appear then. It was next expected on the 10th; but the tenth passed without the Southerner's appearing. It is now expected to appear soon. The University. On last Saturday, the 12th instant, there were eighty students present for duty. At the close of ^ last session, there were sixty-three students in the W University. Of these, fifty have thus far returned; and some others are known to be returning. So that, of the thirteen thus far behind time, we may expect several yet to come in. Just thirty new students have matriculated this year. What with the thirteen former students behind time, and several additional new ones in different parts of the State who are known to be making ready to come, it is confidently expected that the roll of students in the University will reach a hundred during the present session. There ought to be three hundred. "The Love Bird.'* We have the pleasure this week of acknowledging the receipt of a charming song set to music. The song, called the Love Bird, is by Mrs. Fanny Downing, of Charlotte, N. C., who within the past year or two, has taken the position of first among the poetesses of the South. The music is by Miss Louisiana Wilson; and the piece is published by Geo. Willig & Co., of Baltimore. The words are themselves music: ? The maple is flushing in crimson spray, The cold and the winter have passed away: A little bird sits in the buds at play,And he sings nnd whistles the live-long day. One constant strain in a tinkling swell Like a fairy touch on a silver bell; I know not if others qan read so well The story his gurgling warbles tell, Now pealing loud and now sinking low, Now bursting and swelling with liquid flow ; But each rippling note From his mellow throat, As it floats along Sings nie this sweet song: "I love you ? I love you ? I love you." Way down In my heart a little bird sings With golden plumage and scarlet wings; His voice Is as clear as the crystal springs, And his notes like a pattering of pearls, he flings; A gentle thing is that bosom bird, With the tenderest tone that you ever heard. His strain is by softened memories stirred And its key-note is struck from one sweet old word, His lay he begins with the earliest mom, Yet e'en in my dreams it goes ringing on; And one heart beats time To the silvery chime, Pealing back the same In atone of flame: "I love you? I love vou?I love vou." Literary. Miss Evans, the Author of Bevlah and of Macaria, has just launched forth a new book ? fourth volume. It is entitled St. Elmo. We have not read it yet; but, judging from the critiques on it that we have seen, we infer that it is like all that author's novels?full of pedantry, hardness of character, and heartless, useless suffering; and also full of quotations and obscure historical references ; and is, withal, clever and in its crystaline way, brilliant A new and handsome edition of Poe's Poems has I recently been issued by Widdleton of New York. W Mayne Keid's last is just out. It is the Giraffe Hunters. The boys will enjoy that. mi L I?ittnAO Q nrl Kir -L X16 SpiC/ItJSl; UCUlV U1 HIV Uvnv<Tvi j uuu *jj all odds, is Swinburne's Levis Veneris and other Pbems. It is amorous and musical. Those of our friends who were charmed, as everybody was, at reading Joseph II and his Court, will be pleased to learn that the same author (Clara Mundt) has since that work published, two others ? Frederick the Great and his Court, and The Merchant of Berlin. The last-named is just out in an American translation. It is of the time of Frederick, and deals in court intrigues and diplomacies, domestic troubles-and money, flirtations and liaisons lessinnocent than they. Some northern critics think the book a trifle heavy. History of McGowan's Brigade. We mentioned this work last week. It is written, our reader-friends will remember, by our friend Jas. F. J. Caldwell, Esq., a young lawyer of Newberry. He was in the Brigade and with the Brigade, in one capacity or other, from first to last. The full title-page of the work is, '"The" History of a Brigade of South Carolinians, known first as 'Gregg's,' and subsequently as 'McGowan's Brigade. By J. F. J. Caldwell, lately an Officer of the First Regiment, S. C. V. Philadelphia: . King & Baird, Printers, 607 Sansom Street, 1 $66." It is published, we infer, by the author himself. We are indebted to the author for a copy, containing some corrections of typographical errors. We shall give our readers a number of these next week. The History is well-written, as we presumed it would be. The interest of the book will be liveliest with those men who had part in the events narrated ? the members of the Brigade ? as to them its varied and trying scenes have a vividness that no written narrative can convey to the general reader. To them its stirring page will awaken memories of toils and travels, and bivouacs and battles, hunger, thirst, exposures, camps, orders, rations, weariness, watchings, hard-tack, blue beef, jests, song, summer sunshines, winter ice, picket-posts, killed-wounded-and-missings, boxes from home, dear messages, letters, locks of hair, parting-gifts, gages d amour, mother's blessings, newspapers, hopes, knapsacks, haversacks, blankets, dress-parades, breastworks, soap, dirt, blistered feet, lice, and a few other dainty memories! To the general reader the book will be a kind of information to be found nowhere else in literature. The volume is a kind of Chronicle of the Brigade from its formation on the coast of South Carolina in 1861, until its surrender at Appomattox Court House in 1865?a narrative of the various actions of Port Royal Ferry, Mechanicsville, Cold Harbor, Frazier's Farm, Malvern Hill, the Second Manassas. Ox Hill, Harper's Ferry, Sharpsburg, Sheppardstown. Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, I Gettysburg, Falling Waters, Mine Run, Wilderness, Spottsylvania Court House, Jericho Ford, Riddle's Shoj), Weldon Railroad, Deep Bottom, Fussel's Milk, Reams's Station, Jones's Farm, Jarrett's Station, Petersburg lines, Gravelly Run, Sutherland's Station, and Fannville. In appropriate connection, come biographical sketches of distinguished men ; such as, Gregg, McGowan, Edwards, Barnes, Marshall, Perrin, Haskell, Miller, Shooter, Connor, Bookter, McCreary. Brockman, and others. Anecdote appears from time to time to interrupt the monotony of the narrative. Upon some points there will necessarily be differences of opinion; but we do not propose to touch upon these in this place. We commend the History to our many readers. Tt is on sale in Columbia. I COLORED LEGISLATORS. It will be reinbered by some of our readers, that at the late State election in Massachusetts, two | colored legislators were elected from the City of ! Charlestown. The Massachusetts Legislature assembled a few days since, and these sable members made their appearance at the bar of the House, were sworn in and took their seats, meeting with a kind and courteous reception at the hands of their , white colleagues. One of them being a printer, was assigned to the Committee on Printing; the other to the Joint Committee on Federal Relations. The following extract from the Boston correspondence of a New York paper in reference to one of these members, will interest readers in this latitude : Edward Garrison Walker, by far the most able man of the two. was nominated by the Republif cans of Ward Three, in Charlestown, but on election day the men of that party in the city failed tc support him. At two o'clock in the afternoon of election day, it became apparent that he would not be elected. The polls closed at four o'clock, and he needed about fifty votes to place him aniong the chosen: and those fifty votes were cast by members of the Democratic party, which insuri . ed his election. He is a lawyer of considerable a bility, has an extensive practice in Charlestown and in Boston, and is extremely popular as a man and an orator in the first mimed city. He evinced a warm interest in the Fenian cause last June, which doubtless gained him the Democratic votes. It is stated that the latter partv did as much toward his election as the Republicans, though he has always been identified with, and an exponent of the principles of the latter. Mr. Walker is a | son of that Walker who more than thirty years ago caused such an overwhelming excitement in Charleston, South Carolina, by a pamphlet distinguished in the annals of anti-slavery warfare, and his son has been enabled to create a somewhat similar excitement in Charlestown, Massachusetts, by being chosen a legislator. It was thought that his nomination was not made in good faitn by the Republicans, and that his chances of obtaining a 1 seat in the halls of legislation were slim, and the 1 astonishment and excitement on the evening when his election was declared, was great. He has studied well into the great questions appertaining to our national welfare, is well informed on all subjects discussed at this day, and as an orator he will have few equals in the House. His arguments are clear, concise and conclusive, and at one time during the campaign of 1865,1 saw him in a caucus in Charlestown deliver a speech that completely humiliated one of the most prominent politicians of that city. The latter accused a delegation (of which Walker was a member,) of not doing their duty in a Convention to which they were sent, and Walker, in a short speech, cowed him so completely that the politician was forced to beg his pardon before the assemblage. A brilliant future is predicted for Mr. Walker by his friends, who hope to see him in the Gubernatorial thair or in Congress, and his chances for either are good if he serves with credit his nresent term in tne House, as he has become extremely popular, more especially since his election. ACTS PASSED BY THE LEGISLATURE. AN ACT TO ALTER THE LAW ON THE SUBJECT OF FENCES. I. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives, novo met and sitting in General Assembly, and by the authority of the same, That an Act entitled ' An Act to regulate fences," ratified on the eighteenth day or December, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight nundred twenty-seven, be, and the same is hereby repealed, so for as relates to the Islands of Edisto, John's Island, Wadmalaw, and James Island. II. That from and after the passage of this Act, a fence shall not be required to he kept around cultivated grounds on the said Islands.

AN ACT TO AMEND THE LAW IN RELATION TO TENANCIES. I. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives. now met and sitting in General A&iem-' bly, and by the authority of the same, That when any person or persons have gone, or shall hereafter go, into possession of any land or tenements of another. either as a tenant at will, or under a contract to serve another, either as a domestic servant or common laborer, or otherwise, and shall refuse or neglect to auit the premises, so occupied, when required by tne person letting the same, or upon the termination of the contract, either by its own limitation or from any other cause, it shall be lawful for the person letting the premises to apply to any Magistrate, whose duty it shall be to have a notice served upon the person or persons so refusing to quit, to snow cause before him, at the expiration of ten days from the personal service of such notice, why he should not be ejected, and if no sufficient cause be then shown, it shall be the duty of the Magistrate forthwith to issue his warrant, directed to tne Sheriff or any Constable, requiring him, without delay, to eject such person or {lersons from the premises so let, and authorizing him to use such force as may be necessary. II. The Magistrate shall be entitled to demand and receive from the person applyingfor such warrant a fee of five dollars before issuing, and the Sheriff or Constable shall, in like manner, be entitled to demand and receive from such applicant a fee of five dollars and usual mileage before executing such warrant, an act to carry into effect tiie donation made by an act of congress to the several states and territories which may provide colleges for the benefit of agriculture and the mechanic arts. I. Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives, noxo vict and sitting in General Assembly, and by authority of the same, That the fuuds arising from the lands donated by an Act of Congress, entitled "An Act donating public lands to the several States and Territories which may provide Colleges for the benefit of Agriculture and the Mechanic Arts," approved July second in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-two; and also by the subsequent Acts extendtending the same, when realized and paid into the Treasury, under the joint resolution of this General Assembly, shall be invested by the Treasurer, in the name of the Trustees of the University of South Carolina, and under their direction, in such securities as are required by the said Act of Congress ; and the said securities are hereby declared to be a fund devoted to the endowment, support and maintenance of a college or school in the said University, where the leading objects shall be, without excluding other scientific and classical studies, and including military tactics, to teach such branches of learning as are related to Agriculture and the Mechanic Arts, in the manner most approved by modern science and experience. II. The said Trustees shall, as soon as practicable. proceed to organize the said college or school, ana.make by-laws for its government; they shall have power to make such alterations in the buildings of the University as may be requisite, and as soon as the funds shaft be transferred to them, they shall appoint such additional Professors as tne income oi the fund will permit. The Judichry Committee.?We learn from the New York Herald that the Judiciary Committee was to commence their inquisition of the impeachment charges on the 9th, and that Mr AshIy will be the first witness in the submission of testimony to support his charges, and that the examination of witnesses will be continued from day to day, until the committee are satisfied that they have sufficient evidence upon which, yea or nay, to make up a report for the House. The committee in question, one of the standing committees of the present Congress, is composed of the following members: James F. Wilson, of Iowa, Chairman; George S. Boutwell, of Massachusetts; Francis Thomas, of Maryland ; Thomas Williams, of Pennsylvania ; Frederick E. Woodbridge, of Vermont; Daniel Morris, of New York; Andrew J. Rogers, of New Jersey; William Lawrence, of Ohio; Burton C. Cook, of Illinois: all Republicans, and, we believe,, all of the radical school of Ashley, except the solitary Democrat familiarly known as ''Little Jack Rogers, of New Jersey." Six, at least, of this committee, we understand, are resolved upon the impeachment, so far as their labors niav contribute to this end, and profess to believe that a budget of "high crimes and misdemeanors" can be established sufficient for the removal of Andrew Johnson. Another and a Laroer Decision expected from the Supreme Court.?It appears to be generally understood in Washington that the test case, in an appeal from United States District Judge ^ ' 1 4 '-1 ?? A l,iVininii is DUStCOQf 01 ti.> iu mivuivi .w or is not a State in the Union, will shortly he dc' cided by the United States Supreme Court in the affirmative, and that this decision will upset the theory that Congress, from the rebellion and its consequences, has the right to reconstruct the late rebel States as Territories. These questions will then recur, in the event of such a decision: Has Congress any power over the late rebel States, or has not a State the right to rebel against the Union, to go out when it pleases, and stay out if it pleases, or to come back wnen it pleases ? Under an affirmative view of the subject, and with the prospect of , a decision from the court as it stands, substantially pronouncing the war a failure, the first dutv devolving upon Congress is a reconstruction of this court.?N.

Montgomery, in the 47th year of her age. In her sixteenth year she made a public profession of religion, and joined the Presbyterian Church, at Hopewell, in York District, S. C. Her life was one of Christian piety, benevolence and usefulness. Humble in prosperity, patient in adversity, she ever manifested a gentle and peaceable spirit. In her, the poor ever found an untiring friend. During her last illness, she was hopeful and happy. Peeling that she could not recover, > she called her husband and children, one by one 1 to her l>edside, and gave them her dying instruc> tion and blessing, requesting them all to meet her in Heaven. ! She, desiring the presence of a Minister, sent for the writer, who was with her during her last hours. She delighted in the reading of the 23d Psalm, and > the singing of her favorite hymn, ' "Rock of Acc?, cleft for me." Not a cloud obscured her hope of Heaven. She was in her right mind to the last, and gently fell > asleep in Jesus. Her body was buried in the > Curry Grave-Yard, by the side of her noble son, j who fell in battle during the late war. She ha* ) left a venerable mother, who has now buried the last one of her ten children ; a devoted husband \ and five children, to mourn for her, not as those ) who have no hope. No, as they weep over hei grave they can sing :? "Asleep In Jesus: far from thee Thy kindred and thelrgraves may be, ^ But thine Is still a blessed sleep, From which none ever wakes to weep."
