WHAT OUR EXCHANGES SAY.
From our exchanges we clip the following notices
of the ''Enquirer." We are aware of the fact
that the publication is of questionable propriety;
but at the same time, we are of the opinion that if
any one wants his horn well blowed, he must blow
it himself :
The Yorkville Enquirer.?This ever-welcome
weekly reached us yesterday clad in an entire
new dress, and presents the finest appearance of
any publication that has ever come under our observation.
It is, indeed, beautifully printed.
The Enquirer has just commenced a thrilling
story, and we learn from it that it will continue,
being devoted to literature. As a family paper we
recommend it to our friends, with the assurance
that money spent in securing it will doubly repay
% itself in the enjovment afforded the family circle.
Send on your orders to L M. Grist, proprietor,
Yorkville, S. C.?Charlotte Guardian.
The Yorkville Enquirer.?This large, hand- :
some and popular paper, has recently been yet
more enlarged, beautified and improved, by its
worthy proprietor, Lewis M. Grist, Esq. The number
before us shines brilliantlv in its new and beau- 1
tiful dress. The two first chapters of an original
Nouvelette, entitled "The Spectre of the Fireside,"
from the pen of our gifted friend and former fellowcitizen,
John Witherspoon Ervin, Esq., occupy a ,
prominent position in its columns. The Enquirer is i
doing much to stimulate and develope the literary .
taste and talent of its numerous readers, and, for
the thorough accomplishment of its pleasing mission,
it could not have invoked, within the limits
of the State, a more competent assistant than Mr.
Ervin.?Sumter Watchman.
The Yorkville Enquirer.?This large and
interesting weekly comes to us this week in an entirely
new dress, and makes a splendid appearance. "
It is* filled with choice reading matter, and should ]
be a welcome visitor to every family. It is one of /
the best papers we ever saw, and the getting up,
both literary and mechanical, is highly creditable -J
to its enterprising Proprietor. 1
Price $3,50 per annum, in advance. Mr. J. G. ,
Schorb. at the Times office, is agent for this city,
who will take pleasure in receiving subscriptions
and advertisements for it.?Charlotte Times.
56?* The Yorkville Enquirer, enlarged and imH
proved, now stands at the head of the country
press in its typographical appearance. The first .
number of the New Year appears in an entirely
new dress, which looks as it it was made to order.
This number contains the commencement of an
original nouvelette, by J. Witherspoon Ervin, one
of the liveliest fiction writers in the country. Other
interesting original stories are to follow. Capt.
Grist knows how to command success, and is not ?
slow to avail himself of the knowledge.

pleasure we place upon our exchange list the above
excellent paper, Lewis M. Grist, Publisher and .

edge of. We bid the Enquirer welcome, and wish i
it all the success good fortune can give.

Seir The Yorkville Enquirer comes to our sanctum
this week in a new and elegant dress. The
Enquirer has been enlarged and is one of the best
family newspapers of wnich we have any knowledge.
We congratulate friend Grist on his success
in reaching the very acme of newspaper fame.
To those who wish to encourage a literary and
handsomely gotten up family newspaper, we would
T say send ior the Enquirer. It is deserving and
worthy of an extended circulation throughout the
country.?Marion Star. jThe
Yorkville Enquirer.?If there be a r
weekly paper in this State that deserves a general ;
Eatronage more than any other, and if we should t
s called upon to act as umpire in the matter, we
should unhesitatingly accord the preference to the c
Yorkville Enquirer, published by Capt. Lewis M.
Grist, at $2 50 specie, or $3 50 currency, per annum.
It is one of the largest papers in the State;
its columns are always crowded with interesting
original and selected matter; its typographical execution
is superior; while the general appearace of (
the paper indicates that the proprietor is deter- v
mined that the Enquirer shall stand in the very t
front of the newspaper ranks of the State. The g
people of the state should give the Captain a gen ?
eral and generous support. _ ?

The Yorkville Enquirer.?This journal has g
recently appeared in a new dress, and is now the ^
handsomest and best printed paper that reaches
our office. The proprietor is aoing all he can to a

readers. _ . . si
We hope our friends of the upper districts of
South Carolina appreciate these efforts, and extend n
to the Enquirer a liberal support. The proprietor *]
certainly deserves to succeed, whatever his actual <5
success may be.?Southern Presbyterian. ?
The Yorkville comes to us much tl
enlarged and improved, and in a new dress. While r
soine are lowering their sails, friend Grist hoists his
to the breeze. His paper certainly deserves pa- r
tronage, and we trust his energy and enterprise t]
may be amply and abundantly rewarded. The En- >
qiiircr is emphatically a first class paper, and we
think we do not transcend bounds to say that a bet- y
ter family newspaper, as a whole, cannot be found ?
in the State. Several new and original nouvelettes ?
will appear during the year. ''The Spectre of the f
Fireside," by J. Witherspoon Erwin, is the title f
of the first of the series, commenced in the number
H for January 3d, 1867. Terms: $3,50 a year, in
advance. Address L. M. Grist, Yorkville, S. C.

Correspondence of the Charleston Courier. ^
FROM WAiHINGTON. r
Washington, January- 30. ? It is intended by v
the leaders of the majority in Congress to press, J
within a week or two, a proposition for another J
constitutional amendment, which will render any ^
one President ineligible for a second term. For the !"
last fortv years ? ever since the close of President 1
Monroe s administration?every President has di- *
rected the administration of his first term, to elec- *
tioneer for the second. The Radicals are, however, *
especially induced to establish the one term princi- 1
pie, by their quarrel with President Johnson, who, c
as they allege, directed them only when he had 1
got the next Presidency of his brain. A proposi- li
tion has also been made to extend the term from (
four to six years. This is complimentary to the j
wisdom of the framers of the Constitution of the '
late Confederate States. But as there are so many 1
aspirants for the Presidency among the Radicals *
it is not probable that this amendment will prevail. (
They would rather shorten the term to twelve
months, so that in six years?as long a time as (
the reputation of any of them will keep?there 1
may be six Presidents.
H The impeachment plan, if prosecuted, will, in^
deed, require four Presidents between this day and j
the beginning of the next Presidential term?to 1
wit?Johnson, the present incumbent, then Wade
or whosoever may be placed temporarily in the of- ^
fir-c durine the impeachment; next his successor j
who is to be chosen the following December, for '
the remainder of Johnson's term; and then the !
President is to be ejected in November, 1868, for ;
the next term. This will inaugurate the Mexican '
policy and habit of frequent changes in the Execu- r
tive office.
The Radical journals take the defeat of Mr. 1
Stevens' Reconstruction or Destructive Bill very 1
coolly, and even sneak with composure of the prob- 1
ability of the final adoption of a new and comparatively
very liberal scheme. I hear, to-day, of an ,
entirely new change on the part of the Radical op- '
ponents of the Stevens' plan. It is to abandon 1
the prescriptive section altogether, and to provide i
that any Shite whose laws shall make no distinction! (
between its inhabitants in itesuffarge laws, shall j]
be entitled to full representation for its entire popu- (
lation. < i
Mr. Stevens has exhibited much ill temper since .
his discomfiture. His snappishness greatly amuses
the House, for no one seeuis to sympathise with his i
views. It is a little strange, however, that Stevens :
insists strongly upon the justice and expediency of
paying the claims of loyal Southern people for property
taken or destroyed for the benefit of the loyal
men during the war. He estimates the amount as
only two hundred and fifty millions of dollars, and
declares that the money must be forthcoming.?
There is no prospect that the Radical majority will
concur with Mr. Stevens in so iust a measure. A
number of loyal Southern men have vainly presented
their claims here for property taken and receipted
for by Federal Commissioners, and they despair
of obtaining any relief.
A conference is going on here among Democrats
from various sections of the country in relation to
the project for holding a National Convention of
the Democratic party, to devise measures for a more
perfect organization of the party, with a view to future
elections. A meeting in Philadelphia is to be
held for the like object.
Some of the newspapers have reported that Gen.
Grant will go to Europe in the spring, but he himself
ignored the report. In the critical condition
in which the officers of the country may be found
next spring or summer, General Grant could not
be spared from his post by either party, for he is
claimed and relied upon by both parties. LEO.

Sir :?When in Milwaukee, last October, I made
ill arrangements with parties there toward the
prosecution of the suit I have brought against you
or defamation of character, as per preliminary notiication
and summons. This was the principal obect
I had in visiting Wisconsin, and my work was
lone well. On consultation witn a few friends, I
iave decided to withdraw the suit if you will agree
o stop your personal attacks on me as a man and
pfficer, which have so often appeured in your paper,
the La Crosse Democrat. I have no particuar
desire or need to collect of you the amount
daimed, ($100,000,) but do wish to have your anloying
articles stopped, and if you do not accede
0 this proposition, the law must take it course.

Major- General Benjamin F Butler, L. L. D :
Sir:?Your note is before me, by to-day's mail,
ind duly noted. As at present constituted, with
1 natural disgust for thieves, robbers, turn-coats,
nilitary blunderers, bank-robbers, women insiders,
and evilhearted scoundrels generally, permit

to make to you, for I never published a word
oncerning you that I did not believe true, and

ou are at all familiar with your own dishonorable
listory as a public being, 'dignified by accident of
firth with the name of man. I would not willingy
injure your feelings, or deprive you of your worldwide
reputation, so well-earned in the service of
Sutler vs. honest}', patriotism and virtue. Nor do
! wish you to die yet awhile, for your name, histoy,
blunders, robberies, insults to women, and treaon
to your country, are valuable as warnings to

Believing you to be all I have ever charged you

ivery charge, you are politely privileged to let the

The only favor I ask of you is this. If you conlude
to go on with your suit for libel and damans
to the amount of $100,000, permit me to plead

THE LESSON TAUGHT BY GEORGIA.
If South Carolina had taken the advice of John i
J. Calhoun, and built a continental railroad west- '
rard to Knoxville, Charleston would have become i
he great seaport of the Atlantic for the Southern i
States. What South Carolina lost hy failing to i
iikc the advice of the old man Calhoun, Georgia (
:ained by taking the advice of the young man A1 <
xauder H. Stephens. Georgia became the em- 1
nre State of the South, and South Carolina be- i
ame the cauldron of politicians. It is a notable
act that when a preacher, a lawyer, or a doctor, i
iiilsin his profession, he turns politician, and keeps i
lis friends in a stew until he dies. So when a State
Irops internal improvements and turns old fog}-,
pe may expect to find a political conservatism which
lolds on to old things without learning new things,
io it was with South Carolina. Neglecting the
idvice of Calhoun, she hung ou to a dead theory
astead of reaching forward to a live fact. She arued
that Internal improvements by a State would
aider any circumstances, ruin the people, and peristentl}'
shut her eves to the fact that Boston with i
ier western railroad to Albany, New York with her ,
lentral Kailroad and Canal. Baltimore with her
)hio Road, Pennsylvania with her Pittsburg road,
nd Georgia, with her State road, all proved that
itate aid to railroads, under some circumstances,
rould not only not ruin the people, but build up meropolises
and empires. And so. South Carolina,
na perhaps Alabama, talked politics, whilst Georia
cfug dirt. The result has been, what ? Atlanl,
which was a wood station, when Montgomery
ras a town, is now a city, whilst Montgomery is
till a town. By a recent census, Atlanta is found
a have a population of 20,228, being about 4,000
lore than Montgomery. How do you account for
he growth of Atlanta and the towns upon the
Itate Road, which can. boast no natural advances?
The solution of the enigma stares us in
he face. Boston, New York, Baltimore, and evev
large western city, has solved it. It is the comletion.
by State assistance, of a great continental
ailroad, connecting the seaport of the State with
he great, living, laboring, throbbing heart of the
Northwest.
Let the Legislature of Alabama see to it, that
rhat Calhoun saw in his old age, and what Alex.
Stephens saw in his youth?that wealth, enterprise
itate stability and State independence, must draw
heir sinews from the great West?may be made
he purpose of Alabama.?Montgomery Mail.
TENACITY OF LIFE.
A remarkable instance of the preservation of life
without sustenance for a lengthened period has latey
occurred at Ponikan, near Grossenliayn, in Saxmy.
On the 8th of December last two brothers
lamed Muschter were engaged in digging a deep
fell, when the earth fell in and completely buried
hem. A third brother went down immediately,
>ut was not able to perceive the slightest sound.
Some miners were then set to work, and dug for
ome days, but without success; and it was so generally
believed that the poor fellows could not possibly
be alive, that orders had been given that, uness
the relatives insisted on proceeding further,
he well should be filled up, and a monument to the
uemory of the Musehters erected over it. Eight
lays had already elapsed since the accident, but the
nother of the entombed would not give up all hope,
aid some fresh hands began to work again, though
>nly in the expectation of finding the corpses. To
heir astonishment, however, they suddenly heard
rom below the words, "l)o not strike so hard."?
V conversation commenced, the work was pushed
brward with renewed diligence, and at length
arowncd with success.
On the 18th of December after they had been
ileven days and four hours in this living grave, the
wo Musehters were rescued and brought to the
>urface. The earth that had fallen in nad left a
and of cave above them. Their only sustenance
luring this long period had been the water that
lad oozed through the earth, and a little tobacco
vhich they had chewed. They had a watch with
:hem, which they wound up regularly, and were
;herefbre able to keep an account of the time of
:heir burial. At first they lighted lucifer matches
? see the time, but when these were all used they
elt the hands. They had heard the conversation
ibove them respecting the filling up of the well,
md shouted, but could not make themselves heard,
rhey had also sung hymns together, and the people
it the surface had heard them faintly, but being

SOT Since the close of the war many mushroom
louses have sprung up in Charleston, hut their
ixistence has been brief, and day by day they are
moving off further North. If the merchants who
:lo visit the city wish to know what houses arc reliable,
we will name one where they can find Southern
gentlemen of means and experience. We allude
to the House of Goodrich, Wi.ne.man & Co.,
Wholesale Druggists and Importers, No. 153 Meeting-street.
They sell pure articles and at moderate
prices.
The Washington Mission.?The gentlemen
appointed by the Governor on the mission to Washington,
have all returned home. We are glad to
learn all of them speak hopefully of the aspect of
public affairs; at least, that the situation is not so
threatening as it has been, and that there is some
room to hone that the conference of Southern men
recently at Washington, may result in an early settlement
of difficulties.
The intimations thrown out in the Washington
papers and by letter writers, that the late Conferences
of Southern Governors and others with members
of Congress and others, have evolved a plan
of settlement, which has received the sanction of
leading Republicans and Democrats, -and understood
to be favorably thought of by the President
and a portion of the Cabinet, we learn, may be regarded
as correct. In a few days, the plan will
doubtless be made public.
We believe that the anxiety of the people of the
South to put an end to the strife and the turmoil,
make them ready to yield to any reasonable demand,
and will lead them to throw no impediment
in fho tuqv nf nn hnnnrahlc and rpaannahle nd inst
merit of the difficulties between the North and
South. We are ready to give our sanction and support
to any arrangement that meets those conditions.?Raleigh
(N. C.) Sentinel.
Another Snake Story.?The Vicksburg
Times, of the 19th ult., is responsible for the following
:
Some flntboatmen at Miliken's Bend, not long
since, saw on the bank a long black snake, lazily
watching the gradually lengthening of a ridge of
earth peculiar to the subsoil navigation of the mole.
The little burrower emerged at the root of a tree,
and the snake with one lunge captured and swallowed
him. The observers of this sad aflhir thought
it was all over with the poor mole, but, nothing
daunted, though perhaps unaware of his perilous
situation, he kept on scratching until he came out
at the small end of the snake, who feeling suddenly
that he had been cheated out of a square meal,
turned and swallowed him again, with the same
result as before.
The captain of the flatboat, in every respect a
reliable gentleman, informs us that this singular
contest was continued for eight hours, with no variation,
exoept that the mole, as he became better
acquainted with the route, made faster time on his
trips.
Finally, the snake, completely disgusted with the
mole, allowed it to go in peace; ana dragging himself
to a hickoiy tree, butted his brains out against
its roots. On being opened, the "innards," from
end to end, were found to be as slick and smooth
nc fho incidA nf a lndv's thimhle.
Registered Letters.?The new regulations
regarding registered letters, which are to go into
effect as soon as the instructions and blanks can be
forwarded to the several jx>st offices, provide that
registered letters are never to be sent "direct," if a
distributing office is located anywhere between the
place of mailing them and their destination. They
are also to be always enclosed in the "registered
package envelope," furnished by the Department
to all post offices. Every person connected with
the service through whose hands a "registered
package envelope ' shall pass in transmission, is
required to make a record of the number, &c., of
the same in a book or blank sheet provided for
that purpose, and also to take a receipt for it from
the person to whom he delivers it, in all cases
where it is practicable. The postage and fees for
registered letters must be prepaid by stamps.
Sheridan's Order.?General Sheridan hassd-1
ded nqthig to his reputation by refusing to ahow
the citizens of Galveston to "give a civil escort,
from the steamer to the cars, to the remains of
General Johnston." It is true that General Johnston
was a rebel, and that he died in the cause of
the Confederacy; but the rebellion has passed
away, and we can see no impropriety in allowing
the people of the South to honor whom they please
in a civil capacity. If the proposal had been to
give military honors to the remains of General
Johnston, the case would be different. If the Confederate
uniforms, flags, or any other appurtenances
of the rebellion were to have been displayed on
the occasion, then the action of General Sheridan
might be justified. But so far as appears from the
correspondence, there was to be nothing more than
a civil escort a short distance through the city.
Does General Sheridan or anybody else propose to
take from the Southern peoplevthe affection which
they feel for men who fought and died by their
side during the late war ? If the South had conluered
the North, would not we cherish the memory
of our heroes quite as much as we now do?
General Sheridan's course is not calculated to hasten
the era of fraternity and concord between the
North and South, and we fail to see how it can receive
the endorsement of sober, thoughtful and
considerate men.?New York Sun.
Good Farming.?The Oeala (Florida) Banner
says:
"A gentleman in this vicinity purchased 120
acres or pine land?one-half cleared?for $375.?
With himself and family, consisting entirely of females,
assisted only by a small boy, for whose services
he paid $50, he raised the following crops,
viz: eight bales of long cotton, worth about $2,000;
$850 worth of corn; $300 worth of potatoes;
oats and fodder worth $75, and from the pinders
raised he fattened $400 worth of pork. In the
Breduction of these crops he employed two horses,
[is total expenses for the farm and the support of
the family was $600."
Prospects in Arkansas.?The Camden. Ark.,
Eagle, of the 12th, says that town is overrun with
negroes. The fact has drawn the attention of thj|
Red and Arkansas River planters, and under a
brisk competition the rate of wages lias been materially
advanced. In fact it is now so high that
many fear that the uplands cannot be profitably
cultivated. The planters of the river bottoms may
make a small margin of profit. But the prospect
is so discouraging that the number of acres planted
will be smaller this year than ever before.

Diki>?At her father's residence, in this District,
on the 28th ultimo, MARY JANE, eldest daughter,
and last one of the children of Andrew and M.
E. Haffner.
The deceased was married on the 4th of October
last, to Mr. W. H. Abell, of Chester. About two
years ago, she made a profession of religion, and
connected herself with the Presbyterian Church,
at Bullock's < 'reek. Trained up by pious parents,
her life and conduct were graced with all that is
beautiful and lovely in woman. Her native reservcdness
veiled many splendid qualities, which
intimacy only could discover. The high estimation
in which she was held by all who knew her,
is the best eulogy upon her excellent character.?
She was quite a* youth, just past her 17th year.
Young in life, young in her public allegiance to
the cause of her Redeemer, young in the joys and
pleasures incident to a happy union in the marriage
bond. Thus she seemed to be surrounded
with all that is necessary to mako life attractive.?
Alas! how frequently are these allurements deceptive!
But we rejoice to believe that she was
not betrayed by thesoemntv charms. With a heart
imbued with the grace ot God, she felt her Saviour
to be more precious to her than all earthly things.
The impression was made upon her mind, previous
to her illness, that her life would bo short;
and, at no time, during her sickness, was thisconviction
withdrawn. When she was told that hope
was entertained that she might recover, she would
never allow herself, for a moment, to cherish such
views. In fact, she frequently remarked to her
friends, that she had no desire to live. She felt
that death was approaching, and that it was her
duty to yield to the will of her Heavenly Father.
Her sufferings were intense, and often would she
plead for her blessed Jesus to come, and take her
to himself, the cry was heard, and she fell asleep
in Jesua. Thus in the mysterious providence of
God, a promising youth has been taken from our
midst. Thus a great loss to the church of Christ,
, an additional grief to her weeping father and family,
a heart-rending stroke to her kind and devoted
husband. But glory be to God, their loss is her
eternal gain. Bow then, mourning friends, with
christian submission, to the ways of God. After
the funeral services were conducted, on the morning
of the 30th, in the presence of many weeping
friends, her remains were taken and laid in the
silent grave beside her departed sister.
"Far from this world of toll and strife,
She's present with the Lord."
In this District, on the 1st instant, Mr. FRAN'
CIS HENRY, aged 101 years.
