[Cheers.] So much, my friends, for the views we entertain. Then, we come appealing to you for peace. We come appealing to you because it is not only the highest wisdom to restore peace; not only because it is statesmanlike; not only because tbe very theory of statesmanship and politics require the restoration of peace, but we appeal to you because it is the very mainspring of patriotism, and if there is anywhere the mainspring of patriotism moving strong and perpetual, it is in the hearts of the people of Illinois."

Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. LETTER FROM CHESTER. Chester, Sept. 17,1877. The public sale of tinware of J. E. Curtis & Co., bankrupts, began on Wednesday and was continued until Saturday. The sale was well attended, and the bidding, for the most part, quite lively. Considering the scarcity of money, the various articles of tinware brought tolerably fair prices. Mr. John Lb Agure was the largest buyer at the sale. Rev. G. A. Trenholm, who has been supplying for a short time the Presbyterian pql/ pit at this place, has given such general snisfaction that he will now receive a regiflar call from the members of this congregation. L At a meeting to be held in the Church on next Sunday, a call will be extended for a pastor, and, doubtless, the voice of the congregation will be in favor of Mr. Trenholm. Presbytery will, without doubt, ratify the work of the Church, and this excellent and eloquent preacher will, it is hoped, be permanently located in our midst. The excitement among the colored people in regard to emigrating to Liberia has subsided. They have come to the sensible conclusion to bear the ills they have, than fly to others they know not of. Two leading colored men of this county recently attended a meeting in Charleston, at which the Liberiaemigration scheme was the principal topic of discussion. They doubtless heard tbe trutn in regard to Liberia, for they returned home with the conviction that they had best stay here. Their absurd ideas in regard to the great advantages of their proposed new home? the productiveness of its soil, and its molasses and whisky flowing trees?have been abandoned. The visit of these representative colored men to Charleston, besides removing eK roneous opinions, will, it is hoped, inspire their people with the determination to stay and work where they are. ^- An event of a matrimonial nature general 1) excites considerable interest in a community. A large number of persons assembled at St. Mark's (Episcopal) Church on Thursday evening, to witness the nuptials of Mr. James Davis, of Winnsboro, and Miss Beckie Pagan, formerly of Chester. When friends had collected, tbe bride, arrayed in her snowy-white attire, walked gracefully up the aisle, to the chancel, leaning on the arm of Major T. S. Mills, followed by the groom with the mother of the bride. Arriving at ' the chancel, which was festooned with wreaths of evergreens, they were met by Rev. Mr. nf Winnahnrn wKo linitpd the hanDV vucot, vi ?? ?MMvww.wf ..? ? rrj couple in the bonds of holy wedlock. At the conclusion of the interesting ceremony the assembly dispersed, with their wishes for the prosperity aud happiness of the newly-wedded couple. Mr. aud Mrs. Davis took their departure the same evening on the train for Winnsboro. A case of some interest was tried before Trial Justice Bradley, on Thursday. R. M. Doty & Co., of Winnsboro, brought suit against R. M. Cross for the recovery of the value of a wagon, which the latter bought from William Salmonds, but which belonged to Doty & Co. The plaintiffs were represeuted by J. J. Hemphill, Esq., who took the " ground that the wagon did not belong to Salmonds, that he was not authorized to sell it. that it was the property of the plaintiffs, and that they were legally entitled to recover its value. C. S. Brice, Esq., who appeared for the defendant, based his defence upon the fact that his client had bought the wagon from Salmondsas agent of the plaintiffs. The jury rendered a verdict in favor of the plaintiffs, to the amount of 890. W. H. Hardin, Esq., recently returned from Cheraw, where he spent a week in the interest of the Chester and Cheraw Railroad, of which he is President. He does not give a very glowing account of the enthusiasm of the Cheraw people respecting the construction of the road. However, a small portion of the road, he says, between Cheraw and Chesterfield, has been graded, and the work will be continued in January. Mr. Hardin has ordered another lot of iron for the road, at this end of the line. It is to be hoped that it will soon arrive, and that the laying of the track will be continued without delay, so that Rich Hill will be reached in time to move the present crop of cotton. The energy of the President gives ground for the entertainment of the hope that this desirable end will be attained. The Union Times, in a late issue, stated - ? f/tton nf TTninn onntAined five men. T^r ~ ' lliai bUO l/vuu V* ? ... 9 , whose aggregate weight was 1230 pounds, and challenged any other town in the State to produce the same number of men, weighing the same Dumber of pounds. Chester has five men whose aggregate weight is 1263 pounds, which is 33 pounds ahead of Union. The Times also made the statement that there were in Union ten men whose average weight was 230 pounds. Chester has ten whose average weight is 231 pounds. Besides produ-' cing large men, she has five small men whose average weight is 110 pounds. She lays down the gauntlet for both large and small men. What town will take it up? A young man who had recently come to * this place, was initiated one night last week by his companions into the mysteries of town life. He was persuaded to take a walk with a friend to thesuburbs of town, when, accordiug to a previous arrangement, the two, while walking quietly along, were waylaid and fired upon by a party of gay young friends. The young man in question was so badly frightened that he took to his heels, crying "murder" "murder," at the top of his voice. Reaching a house, he leaped the gate and rushed in. The family, consisting of a widow lady and her children, hearing the cry of murder, and see ing the frightened young man, also took fright, and quickly left for a neighbor's house. Some gentlemen appeared on the scene with their pistols, the murderers were dispersed, and quietness was soon restored. The next day there was considerable laughter at the expense of the initiated townsman. Dr. A. P. Wylie was dangerously ill last week. Dr. Gill Wylie, came home in response to a telegram announcing his father's illness. Improvement of his father's condition enabled him to leave for New York last evening. The meeting of survivors of "Co. F" of the old 6th Regiment, took place to-day at the Court House. Capt. 0. A. Wylie was chosen chairman, and Mr. John Buchanan secretary of the meeting. Upon motion ofC. S. Brice, Esq., a committee, consisting of the surviving commissioned officers of Co. F, were appointed to prepare a roll of the survivors of the Company, and draft a constitution for the guidance of the Association. This committee will make their report at the next meeting, which will be on the 1st Monday of November. The surviving officers and members of other Companies of the 6th Regiment, are invited to be present at the next meeting. The officers of Co. F, are also charged with the duty of urging upon the other Companies to form similar associations, with the view of securing a grand reunion of the noble old band of veterans? the gallant 6th?at some early day in the fu ture. The meeting to-day was well attended by the survivors of Co. F, and the proceedings I were quite interesting. Mr. R. Brandt intends to continue the furniture business. He will soon have on hand-, one of largest stocks ever brought to this market. Alex. Wallace, colored, was put in jail on Saturday, charged with gambling. Four others of the same color were imprisoned for disturbing religious worship atShiloh Church. Rev. Mr. Marion preached last evening at the union meeting from the text, "He can save unto the utmost all that come unto Him through Christ." The congregation was large and attentive. Mr. E. D. Latta & Bro., of Charlotte, intend establishing & clothing store here. Qui. Correspondence of the Yorkville Enquirer. LETTER FROM ROCK HILL. Rock Hill, S. C., September 18. The past week has been one peculiarly characteristic of the season?each day divided into hours of sunshine and rain, contrary to the interests of the farmers, whose fodder was full ripe. Many complain of the repeated rains as being very damagir** to the growing crop of cotton. Others Kof-flio lnnrr Hrir sdaII in AuCTQSt. which oaj vuav vuv ~i ? w r . stopped the growth, causing the bolls to be very small, will be counteracted, the frequent showers increasing the growth of the boll and prevent its opening while so small. The crop is several weeks later than at this time last year, as the sales of new cotton each day ranged from 70 to 100 bales, while up to this time there have been but a few bales of new cotton thrown upon the market. Judging from the various reports which have reached me with reference to the present condition of the crops', I am constrained to believe that a very good average crop will be made, exceed?\ /Hi|fthe expectations of the most sanguine. The "Catawba Rifle Company" is now fully organized. The members met several nights ago for the purpose of determining the style of uniform they should adopt. Quite a lively ballot ensued, the choice of some being frock coats, while others wanted the spike tail. They were equally divided on the ballot, and the Captain cast his vote in favor of the spike tail. The company has been furnished with the improved breech-loading rifles. Upon receiving them, they at once determined to try their skill and test the accuracy of the gun. ' Accordingly, ? shooting match was agreed upon and Thursday afternoon appointed for the contest. UA white plume was contributed by the company to be awarded to the one making the best shots. One member gave a box of cigars to the second best; another a tin coffee pot to the third. All things arranged, they appeared quite promptly upon the ground selected for the contest, the target placed at a distance of 150 yards, and the judges placed in a safe and comfortable position, when the shooting commenced, the members firing as their names were announced from the roll by the orderly sergeant. Each having fired the three shots allowed to him, the result was announced by the judges as follows: James A. Gill, first best; D. P. Steele, second, and eight tied for the third. A lively contest was entered into, which resulted in a tie between the captain and a private. Another round was fired with the same'result. Becoming some what disgusted with themselves or tnetr guns, they resorted to the throwing of rooks, wbioh was declared in favor of the captain, who bore away, most triumphantly, the tin coffee pot. The closing scene was exceedingly ludicrous and highly amusing to the many spectators who had gathered there to witness the sport. SN^nfcSaturday our town was unusually thronged.' "itiir""8- who assembled for the pi\t/ pose of holding ai meeting to-discuss the question of emigration to Texas. I learn they selected a committee of three or more to go to that State for the purpose of viewing the country and to report the result of their observations. About 12 o'clock, Saturday, a negro was arrested for assaulting his wife and arraigned for trial before Trial Justice Fewell. After a patient investigation of the case, the culprit was sentenced to pay a fine of $10 and costs, or be imprisoned 30 days in the county jail. In default of payment, he was committed to jail. The brass band organized here some time ago, and composed of gentlemen of decided talent, is progressing very rapidly. Rev. Dr. Meynardie will deliver his lecture here to-night on the Life and Works of W. Gilmore Simms, on which occasion he will doubtless be greeted by a large audience.

THE BEST CLOTHES WASHER" SUCCESS ATTAINED ATLAST! CHEAP AND GOOD. THE undersigned would respectfully invite the attention of the people of York county, to the late and most valuable improvement in Clothes-Washing, Burnell A Crooker's FUNNEL CLOTHE8 WASHER, patented July 2nd, 1872, which is now being used throughout the United States, taking the place of every other mode af washing, ana has proved to be a success in the saving of time, labor and clothes. Thousands of testimonials could be produced; but the subjoined, signed by many of the best citizens of York county, who have thoroughly tested the Washer, I deem will be sulficieht to satisfy the most incredulous. Families can save at least from five to twentyfive dollars a year by using this Washer. Compressed air and suction is the power that does the work, forcing water through the cloth. thereby dispensing with all friction, and obviating the usual wear and tear of the clothes. It will wash any and every kind of clothing, from the smallest lace collar to the largest bedquilt, or even the largest and most soiled wagon sheet, and do it in less than half the time consumed by the old way. I have the right of York county, (except Bethesda township,) and also Chester township, in Chester county, and will call on the people, either personally or through my traveling agents. Family right, with Washer, $5.00. No right good unless signed by me. My address, for the present, is Yorkville, S. C. D. N. WILBURN, of Cross Keys, 9. C. :o: RECOMMENDATIONS. We, the undersigned, do certify that we have been using, for some time, Burnell <fe Crooker's Funnel Clothes Washer. We lind it all that it is recommended to be. We find that it not only saves time and labor, but does its work thoroughly and with no injury to the clothes. We unhesitatingly recommend it to every family as superior to any washing machine we have ever seen. Leroy R. Williams, R. G. Whitesides, J. F. Wallace, D. T. Byers, Clerk Circuit Court. Jas. S.
