Im? portant reductions have been made in the levying oT taxes, in many instances from twenty-five to fifry per cent, on the tax list of las? year. The tax On-Watches has been abolished. WTLLIAMSTON MALE ACADEMY. ?-We are gratified "*o learn that Capt. J. A.

Ths price of tuition will be reasonable, and beard can be obtained at from $10 to ?12 per month. Cnpt. T. is a graduate of college, and has been teaching with great success for several years. --V EX-GOVEBNOB PI0KENS. The Edgefield Advertiser is pained to announce that this distinguished and much-honored citizen o1' South Carolina is lying seriously ill at his home near that village. Gov. Pickens has been afflicted for two months with some subtle nervous afTection, of which great difficulty in breathing seems to be the chief outward sign. His physicians concur in the opinion flat it is a very curious and critical case, though not hopeless. THE KE0WEE COUBIEE. Tho last number of this popular journal announ? ces that W. C. Keith, Esq., has assumed editorial control of its columns, und will devote his brilliant talents to tbe advancement of journalism in this section. Wc extend a cordial welcome, and wish him a pleasant and profitable career. Our friend, Whitner Symnes, is retained as an associate editor, and ire may confidently predict an unprecedented prosperity for the paper. THE MTTBDEB OF RANDOLPH. The Columbia Phexn'a learns that a man named William Tai.uot, formerly of Edgefield, but moro recently of Abbeville, surrendered himself to one of the deputy constables as one of the murderers of the late B. F. Randolph, and was brought to that city on Monday and lodged in jail. It is said that he professes valuable information in reference to the othor murderers, as also about the distur? bances which are reported to have taken place in Abbeville during the last few months. RETURN DAT. , Tuesday last was Return Day for this county, arid wc learn that only about thirty cases were issued to the approaching term. As u matter of conrHe, these cases belong to the class known as Writs, or to use plainer language, involved more than $100, as jurisdiction below that sum belongs to Magistrates, under the new rejime. The return, however, is comparatively light, and we are in? formed t bat many of our people arc compromising o.'d debts, thus eroding litigation." TEE EDGEFIELD ADVE3TI3ER. This time-honored journal undergoes a change with the new year, Mr. Elijah Kee*k haying sold out his interest in the Advertiser to the senior pro? prietor, Mr. D. K. Diittisoz, who pronounces that every effort shall be put forth to make the Adver? tiser equal to any weekly journrl in the State. In our opinion, this has already been accomplished. We are glad to note that our friend, James T. Ba? con, will continue as editor, and of course will enliven its columns and adorn the position he has held for several yea^. All hands have our most urdent desires for abundant success. TEE BANKBUPT LAW. It may be well to correct certain popular mis apprehensions in reference to the Bankrupt law ' Many persons arc under the impression that deb- j tors are deprived of its benefits on and after the lit instant, which is not the case, 'fhey are, how- ; ever debarred the privilege from that time of reti- I tioning for voluntary bankruptcy, unless the assets pay 50 per cent, of the indebtedness, or a majority of those proving ciaims against the bankrupt con? sent in writing. Another and important branch of the law is tho right of creditors to force debtors into bankruptcy, which is a permanent feature, and which was fully explained by a correspondent of this paper about twelve months ago. TEE LEGISLATURE. This body rc-asseiublcd on Tuesday of las L week. The proceedings so far are almost devoid o:' inter? est. We gleam from our exchanges the following items: A bill to puulyh Sheriffs and other officers for violating the homestead law has passed i s third reading in the Senate, and will doubtless pass the Ileus?. A bill has been introduced to increase tho ?alaries of the Circuit Judges and tho Justices of the Su? preme Court. The bill to organize amd govern the militia of this State is receiving consideration by the Senate, and will be passed at an early day. A bill has beea introduced in the House lo char? ter the Wilson Bridge Company in Anderson and Greonville couuties. A bill empowering the Attorney Geicral to chauge the venue in State cases was introduced in the House on Friday. This bill is proposed with a view to removing the case of Col. D. Wyatt Aiken to Boaufort for trial. A resolution, adopted by the House, and eent to the Senate for concurrence^ authorizes an investi? gation of all matters connected with the raanage ment of the State Lunatic Asylum. This movement has reference to malicious rumors against the pres? ent management, in order to make room lor.some aspiring sprig of loyalty. An appropriate resolution was adopted by the House abolishing a bar-room adjacent to the hall, which establishment is declared in the preamble to be "totally unauthorized.'" Besolutions w?re introduced authorizing the payment of per diem and mileage to the families of the late James Martin, of Abbeville, and S. G. W. Dill, of Kershaw. Also, a bill has been intro? duced to provide for the widows and orphans of men murdered for their political opinions. Petitions and memorials from sundry citizens of Beaufort, praying a division of that couniy. ?:-??-: IMPORTANT TO COTTON PLANTERS. A bill has been introduced into Congress "to regulate the price and encourage the production of cotton in the United States," which provides that after the first of July next, the Secretary of the Treasury shall be authorized to purchase all raw cotton grown after tho passage of this bill (when the same shall be delivered at any railway station or on board any steamboat making direct running communication with the port oTNew York) at twenty cents per pound for upland, and thirty cents for sea island, provided it be in good mer? chantable order, and put up in bales of four hun? dred pounds each. The purchases are to be made through tin; internal revenue officers. Cotton so sold shall-be exempt from tax ; but if sold to other parties than agents of the United States, shall pay a tax of three cents per pound ; the cotton pur? chased by the Government shall be sold in New York at a price not less than five cents pet- pound iu advance of the purchase price, not reckoning expenses of transportation, storage, &c, part of the latter; but manufactures of cotton wiihin the United States shall be allowed a drawback of two and a hah conts per pound upon all cot on used by them; anda full report of alltransactions under the foregoing provisions sha'l be laid before Con? gress at the commencement of every rcgulur ses? sion. -- LITERARY NOTICES. ffodey's Lady's Book for Januory has been on eur table for several weeks, and we are pleased t? know that this old favorite yet upholds its reputa? tion for interest and excellence. We will send God'y and this paper one year for S5.00. Frank LcslU's Magazine is not excelled by any for progress and-splendid array of talent in the various departments. Published by Fkank Li;slib, New York. Sent with the Intelligencer at a rsducc price. Onward, a new monthly magazine just itisucd by Gauleto.v, of New York, and edited by Capt. Matse Keid, the great novelist.1 Its design ir evidently sensational, although professedly for the benefit of the youth of America. In our humble judgetneut, the youth aforesaid are too much in? clined to trashy, sensational reading, and this magazine will stimulate that inclination, which is in the wrong direction. Hearth and Horn', whose expected appearance was heralded a few weeks since, is a creditable and attractive publication, and deserving a warm re? ception at the fireside, in town or country.

Published by Alfreu L. Sewell, Chicago, at SI per annum. Wc have received from the publishers, Messrs. Geo. P. Row ell & Co.. New York, a specimen sheet of a new work, which they will shortly issue, entitled the "American Newspaper Directory," containing accurate lists of all the newspapers and periodicals published in the United States and Territories, and the dominions of Canada, and British Colonies of North America : together with a description of the towns and cities in which they are published. It will prove valuable to adver? tisers and newspaper men. The price of a bound copy will be $5. -* NEW3FAPER DIRECTORY. G. P. Powell k Co., the New York Advertising Agents, are about issuing a complete American Newspaper Directory. It is a compilation much needed, since nothing of tha kind having any claims to completeness has ever been published. Messrs. Powell & Co., have spared no pains or expense to make the forthcoming work complete. Wo understand the book will be a hadsome octavo, and sold for five dollars per copy. As the publishers arc Adrertising Agents, their issuing a work containing so much information, usually jealously guarded by those in that business, sliows that they arc confident of their ability to be of service to advertisers, or they would not so readily place in their hands t lie means of enabling every one to communicate direct with publishers if they so desire. The Charleston .Wir* publishes a tynnpsis of the speech delivered on Satunmy last I y Sena? tor Lisi.ik, of Barn well, on the bill to ?rganize and govern tho militia of this State.

Mr. Editor: As a number of your subscribers have expressed a desire to hear something of the present and prospective condition of the sunny South since the desolations of the late war, and especially how their friends and relatives are now getting on in that country, by your pormission, I will give them the result of my observations on the subject. In doing this I mar be a little more particular in the mention of families who have emigrated from this region, and have friends here dosiroas to hear particularly from them. I have been imitating the example of the pigeons and wild geese during tho year new closed. They often revisit the North, and spend the warm summer months in sporting on the beau? tiful lakes there, or sport en ths mountains and in the rallies of that more elevated region and cooler climate. On the approach of winter, they often take leare of the snow-eappod mountains aud ice? bound lakes of tho Northern latitude, and visit the sunny South, where they can enjoy a more mild and genial climate, either in the forests or in our Southern rivers and lakes that are seldom cov? ered with iee. They don't tell us what are their motives for these annual or semi-annual risits. I suppose it is not'taking a bridal tour, as some ef eur young people do, after parting with single blessedness for a new and untried state of purer and more perfoct and more enduring happiness. This feathered tribe bare not told as thsir object was sight seeing; but they are prompted to it by some kind cf instinct to increase their happiness. My object, after discharging tho duly I owed to the Church, was to spend a few weeks in visiting the oouatry North of us, see their manner of farm? ing, their fine stock, and what chaigcs may have passed over the great Northern cities in a period of more than thirty years; to unstring the bow, and gain fresh strength and invigorate my health, and return better prepared for buckling on the harness for renewed efforts and labors in the great vineyard of the Master. I was not disappointed in this expoctaton. My health and etrength were both improved, and I really felt noarly ten.years younger on my return home. My friends in Mississippi, hearing through some source I had not only stood the trip well, but im? proved upon it, coumenced writing to me to visit them while I was able. I replied that I thought one trip of six weeks in a year was quite enough. They thought a man seventy-fire years of age must uceessarily die toon, and to come now. I thouglit so far as physical powers were concerned, I could travel around tho world, and propesed to defer the trip there until next Spring. They said by that time I might die, or they might, nnd I might never come. They expressed strong desires to hear an old familiar voice once more. They proposed, unasked, to defray all my traveling ex? penses, if I would come and attend their Fall meetings, and spend seine time among them. I I felt a strong desire to sec many who were really the lambs of my own flock, and see whether they were feeding "in green pastures beside the still waters," or whether they were as a flock wander? ing on the mountains without a shepherd. Not? withstanding all opposing difficulties that appear? ed to hedge in my way, I resolved to go. and made arrangements accordingly, cnouragtd by a num? ber of our own people. With some misgivings, I left Good llepo, went to Mr. James Sadler's, in Georgia, that evening, and after an early repast, reached Athens next evening, and recoiveda kiud, hearty reception at the house of Kev. Mr. Burket. by himself and his good lady, bat too late to stroll over the place acd see how they had come through the ordeal of the war, but left this for a return visit. More anon. D. II.
