Items from our f?cjpngcs. The New York Post's Washington cor? respondent says: "Prominent Republi? cans who have had interviews with the President within a few days, assert confi? dently that he agrees with the average sentiment of Congress upon the subject of reconstruction. At a cabinet meeting held on Friday last, the President ex? pressed himself in strong terms of disap? probation of tho South, because of its apparent refusal to accept the terms of reconstruction held out. The defeat of all Union candidates, and the nomination of the worst rebels to office, ho regards as indicating anything but a loyal spirit, and while the late rebellious South re? mains in this dangerous mood, tho troops will not be withdrawn." A citizen of "Wilson county, Tennessee, hired a substitute in tho Confederate ar? my, who served as such through the war. The hirer agreed, in writing, to convey to the substitute a tract of land, for which suit was brought. Chancellor Steele, of Tennessee, has annulled tho contract. Ho declares that the recogni? tion of the Confederates as belligerents was induced by considerations of human? ity, and in no wise invested tho "so called" with the rights of nationality. Hence contracts made in contemplation of the existence of such Government, in obedience to its exactions, and to pro moto its ends, are in derogation of pub? lic morals and law, and aro void. Amongst tho property captured by the Federal forces, just before the close of the rebellion, was a draft belonging to the Confederates, dated January 12, 1SG5, for three thousand pounds" sterling, drawn '.by the Confederate Govcrnmsnt on tho house of Brown, Shipley & Co., London. A short time ago tho draft was sent to New York for collection. To-da}- tho Secretary of the Treasury received offi? cial intelligence that the draft had been paid, netting the sum of $14,633 in gold. The Hon. W. \V. Boycc, Avho represen? ted South Carolina in the United States for nearly eight years, is about to com? mence his practice of the law in Washing? ton city. Tho Baptist Church, in Columbia, S. C, was entered a few nights ago, and robbed of several carpets; but all, with exception of ono, havo been recovered. It appears that the carpets were offered for sale to a lady of that cit}-?the state? ment being made by the seller that some of Sherman's men had given them to him. The thief (a frcedman) is^ known, buthas not yet been arrested. "Wc are also informed that several stores and pri? vate residences have likewise been robbed during the past week. Citizens aro warned, and should be on their guard. It i3 proposed by tho Jackson (Miss.) News to purchase a homestoad for Jeffer? son Davis in some foreign country, whith? er he shall rctiro upon release from im? prisonment. It is suggested that the funds necessaiy be raised by Confederate sol? diers' subscriptions of ono dollar each from the men, and as much moro from the officers as; they please. General B. Forrest has gone into tho commission, grocery and general fac? torage business, and, in a neat card in the Memphis papers, proposes to try to make it the interest of his old friends to extend to him a fair share of patronage. The original will of George "Washing? ton has been once more plaeed in the archives of the State of Virginia, after es? caping the vicissitudes of tho last lour years. It is in "Washington's clear and distinct handwriting, and the signature is attached to every page. A gentleman from Appomattox Court House, Virginia, states that there is noth? ing loft of the apple tree under which Gen. Lee surrendered, but a red holo in tho ground, and is is feared that unless tho hole in fenced in, that also will bo re? moved by curiosity seekers. The Louisville Democrat says we don't want "a Union he Idtogcther by the sword, with laws enforced by standing armies. It is not the Union our fathers made, and is not worth preserving." "Are these pure canaries?" asked a gentleman of a bird-dealer with whom he was negotiating for a " gift for his fair." " Yes, sir," said tho dealer confidently, "I raised them 'ere birds from canary seed!" Mrs. Mumford, the widow of Muruford who was hung by Butler, in New Orleans, and hor throe childron, havo recently re? turned to that city in circumstances of great destitution. A Columbus, Mississippi, paper is in? formed of ?80,000 being collected by a Government agent, and but ?0000 ac? counted for. It says the stoaling mania is rampant. Intelligence from Central Mississippi reports the healthy condition of affairs.? Provisions are plentiful, and the negroes are well disposed and arc returning to their homes. A gentleman complaining of tho various imposts and taxes, says he cannot put on boots in the morning without a stamp. Among the latest arrivals in "Washing? ton city wo notice the name of tho Hon. Wm. Porchcr Miles. Oc ^nkrsan $n<cllirjcnccr. THURSDAY MORNING, DEC. 7, 1865. SPECIAL NOTICE. We are compelled (o remind the patrons of the Intelligencer that our terms for subscription, adver? tising and job-work arc cash in advance! In no other way can the establishment realize profits, and we have worked long enough gratuitously.

You have had it long enough, and we prefer a change of mas? ters. Bring along your greenbacks or specie 1 .--9 BURNING BUSH CHAPTER. The Companions of Burning Bush Chapter, No. 7, R. A. M., arc again reminded that Monday night ncMt there will be an election for officers to serve the next ensuing year. It is hoped there will be a full and general attendance. COMMISSIONER IN EQUITY. The Legislature has eleefed Mnj. W. W. H?m pmtKTS to fill the office of Commissioner in Equity for this District, during the next four years. Our whilom confrere will accept congratulations upon his merited success. BOLD DEFIANCE. If there was anything wanting to convince the people of this District that there are predatory bands, whose purpose is to set at defiance the rep illations of geed society, wo think the recent nu? merous cases of stealing must have forced the con? clusion that it is unsafe to leave one's property un? protected. Within the past week, several instance; have come before us of parties who have lost fine horses by this lawless and desperate means. Arc not the citizens satisfied that measures mnst be in J augurated io afford ample protection to tho com? munity, and render it hazardous for these offend? ers against law and order to execute their nefari? ous designs? We sincerely trust that vigilance and spirit will be infused sufficiently to prevent continuance of this disgraceful stale of affairs. ORGANIZED. At a meeting held on Saturday last to complete the organization of a Company for Home Police in the village, the following officers wcro elected : Captain.?James A. Hovt. First Lieutenant.?B. F. Wiiitxer. Second Lieut.?James M. McFall. Third Lieut.?M. L. Kets. The Company will assemble on next Saturday, at 10 o'clock, A. M., when the appointments for the non-commissioned officers will be announced, and other business of importance transacted.? Prompt attendance is desired, and a cordial invita? tion extended to the citizens generally to unite with tl:c organization. Members will assist procuring signatures to the list, which has not yet reached the number required under the Proclama? tion authorizing the formation of such Companies <> MASONIC ELECTION.

Norris, j The installation of the officers named will take place at a special communication to be held on Wednesday evening next, 13th instant. Punctual attendance of the brethren is requested. TO THE CITIZENS OF THE DISTRICT. We earnestly iuvokc the citizens throughout the District, who arc desirous of maintaining peace and good order, to emulate the example afforded by the young men of this vicinity, by an organiza? tion which will secure trnnquility by its very pre? sence, and prevent the designs of evil-disposed characters. Wc arc no alarmist, and have never been given to unnecessary ventilation of excitim rumors; but we arc constrained to express the opinion that circumstances within our own knowl? edge warrant the conclusion that there are concer? ted measures to intimidate law-abiding people and force the appropriation of property which should be held inviolate. In any event, there can be no harm resulting from the prompt and efficient con? centration of strength a.id power to suppress vio? lence and disorder. If there can be no apparent good end accomplished, we arc quite suro that in? directly benefit will accrue. Where are the active, useful citizens who have always evinced commend? able watchfulness for the public welfare ? Let the community hear from them, at once. -? WHAT DOES IT MEAN? We clip the following paragraph from the Dar? lington Southerner of last Friday, in reference to the trial of Messrs. Keys, Btrcm and Stowers, who arc now in Charleston jail, charged with the murder of three Federal soldiers at Brown's Ferry, some two or three months siucc. These gentlemen were first incarcerated here, then taken to Colum? bia, and afterwards to Charleston, and now, ac? cording to the Southerner, their trial is to take place at Darlington, which is lleadquartors of the Eastern Military District: "Au order for ft Military Commission has been issued to convene nt this place to try the Anderson Prisoners for tho murder of the three Federal sei? ners, committed early in October last. " The time for the meeting of the court has not yet been fixed." For the information of the numerous friends of | tho gentlemen named, wc will state that they were in excellent health and spirits last Friday, receiv? ing every kindness from their friends hr- the city and also kindly treated by the military. INAUGURAL ADDRESS OF GOV. ORR. Wc regret that this admirable document readied us loo late for this issue. Our distinguished fellow citizen was inaugurated on Wednesday of last week, in prcsenco of the General Assembly. lJis prede? cessor, the Provisional Governor, delivered a fare? well address to the Legislature, but as is well known will not at once forsake his duties as the Federal Representative in the government of State affairs. However, (Joy. (and Senator) Perry has announced that he will recognizo Col. Orr as,the Chief Magistrate of South Carolina, and shall com? municate through him whatever is important for the Legislature to know, in matters appertaining to the duties of his appointed oilicc. We should felicitate ourselves upon being blessed with two Governors at one time, and both of them working j harmoniously. Not long ago wc were too indigent to afford a single Governor; but times arc becom? ing more prosperous, and in consequence the little Talmetto State is growing extravagant in her gov? ernment. 0 ! tempera, 0 ! more; ! BROWN & SMITH. These arc common nanic.*, but occasionally they fire associated with eminence, ability and liigh po? sition. Tlie familiar name of Joe Brown, the great Georgian, and the no less distinguished cx Govcrnor of Virginia, " Exti-.a Bill? Smith," arc prominent examples of what men may accomplish even though burdened with an appellation by no means captivating or attractive. But these are only two instances from atnong?t the many we might recall of the illustrious Smitu and equally famous Brown families, who have assisted to stamp (lie American character with fame and notoriety. Every community in this broad land is cither blessed or infested with representatives from these leading and numerous families. Our own is not an exception, and wc have taken up the pen to di? rect general attention to two characters which wc have singled out from amongst i be many bearing one or the other title in our midst. Yes, wc write of Brown & Smith! And the theme is a good ono, for the B. & S. wc refer particularly to on this occasion is that firm located at the Northeast coiner of Granite Bow, who arc now circl ing for sale a choice and extensive variety of Goods, equal to any stoek that has yet found its way to this market. Dry Goods of all descriptions, Groceries in endless variety, Crockery of the best selection, and in fact a complete assortment of everything needed by the citizens of this section. Fuller and complete information can be had on application to the firm and their assistants. Remember Brown & Smith, No. 12 Granite Bow. P. S.?Wc arc pulling an excellent well-flavored Cigar from a Box which has been sent us by this establishment of Brown & Smith ! Wc knew they were good fellows and true?appieciatc the happy effects of advertising on their business, and more than all, can sympathize with a poor devil of an Editor?and hence thc3e Cigars ! Hurrah for B. & S., soy wc in the most emphatic manner! Just think of an entire Box of good Cigars, without money and without price?that is, wc don't hare to suffer any deduction from our advertising ac? count because these Cigars arc upon our table. But we've had them several days, and the Box is getting rather low?no loafers invited, and none expected. Go to Brown & Smith's, if you want Cigars, or anything else in their line. BEWLEY, KEESE & CO. Perhaps no firm in this section is more exten? sively known than the above named. Accommo? dating, clever, active, energetic, and reliable., it is no wonder that a full share of patronage is extend? ed to thenn But there arc significant reasons for their success, in addition to tho good qualities enu? merated. Tiicy offer goods at the most reasonable prices, and besides know how to estimate the ad? vantage of advertising. No man can snccccd in business who docs not inform the country at large of Iiis inducements to purchasers, and the liberal house of Bkwlkv, KVesk & Co. arc aware of this fact and govern themselves accordingly. Tho senior partner, Mr. Bewlet, lias-just re? turned from market, whero he has purchased an extensive and well-selected stock of Goods, which is now being opened for the inspection of custom? ers. Wc respectfully invite attention to I heir at? tractive advertisement in another column, and be? speak for them a continuance of that liberality end patronage heretofore bestowed.

From the ?<inncr we learn thai there arc several eases of Small Pox in Abbeville village, but the disease is circumscribed to tho greatest possible degree. With due caution, it is believed that fur? ther progress may be arrested. Having experienced all its terrible effects, wc can sympathize with that community in their impending danger, and earn? estly hope that precautionary measures will prove successful in limiting the victims to the fearful scourge. THE SOUTHERN GUARDIAN. Wc are happy to make the announcement that this popular and excellent sheet is about to be re? vived in Columbia, under the control of Mr. C. V. Pelham, the former proprietor.

Martin, Mr. Lawrence Oub Williams, of Anderson District, and Miss Eliza betu GAnniFKLU, daughter of Mr. D. G. Finley, of Spnrtnnburg. Departed this life, on the morning of the 15th November, NETTIE S., consort of John L. Ar? nold, and daughter of Win. Banks, of Forsyth, Georgia, in the 2?th year her age, after a pain? ful and protracted sickness, which she bore with patience, sustained by a blessed hope in her Sa? viour. It seems but as yesterday that she, whose death we sorrowfully deplore, was among us in all the vigor of life, shedding light and joy around her, like some rare flower nourished by the hand of affection. She bloomed in all the loveliness ot a'devoted wife, mother and daughter; but oh ! the void her early denth has made in the loved one's hearts ! No more will wc behold her dear form in our midst, nor hear the cheerful voice, the ring? ing laugh, for all is hushed in death. Site sleeps her last sleep in the quiet city of the dead. Scarce? ly hail she bloomed in youth and beauty, ere she drooped ana died. We bow in resignation to the Divine will. She could on earth no longer stay, Angels were beckoning her away. I Farewell, dear Nettie, now no husband Looks on thee with joyous love. Fare thee well, but thcro is another Guards thy form in realms above. Farewell, dear Nettie, but not forever, Nor has thy beauty ceased to bloom, And now 'tis blooming brighter, fairer In thy home beyond the tomb. Burning Bush Chapter, No. 7, R/.A.-.M.
