Thursday Morning, July 1st, 1869. We are requested to state that there will be Divine Service in the Presbyterian Church at this place on next Sabbath, at 10} o'clock a. m. We understand that tho Surveyors of the Air Line Railroad are now encamped within a mile or two of this place. We were not apprised that a survey of the Route in this county was intended to be made so soon, and have not now the time to ascertain any particulars. THE WEATHER. The Thermometer yesterday, in one of the cool? est rooms in town, and beyond the influence of reflected heat, stood at 91?. To-day, at 9} o'clock, it reaches 86?. -?-.?. THE WORKING CHRISTIAN. This is the name of a new organ of the Bapiis1 denomination in this State, the first number of j which has been received. It is ably edited by Rev. Tilman. R. G.-vines, and printed in the hand? somest style by Capfr. L. If. Grist, of the 1'ork* Tille Enquirer. Terms, $2.00 per annum. -4? CIRCUS AND MENAGERIE. Our circus going fxiandsvwill be pleased to learn that on Wednesday, 7th of July, Col. C. T. Ames' mammoth New Orleans Circus- and Menagerie, "four thows in one," will exhibit at this plaoe. Oar exchanges speak in very high terns of this sompary, and the collection of wild animals is said to- be fine. Remember the day and govern yourselves accordingly. A REMARKABLE MEMORY. There is a young lady residing in this Villrge, about. 16 or 17 years of age, who has memorized "The Lady of the Lake." That famous poem by Sir Walter Scott seems to be a favorite of the ladies. It is a very remarkable instance of the retentneness of memory, and although most read? ers would have been contented with memorizing its most striking passages, yet her fancy seemis to have embraced the entire poem. We understand that its recitation takes her seven hours, and we venture the assertion that this was more than Si Waltxi: Scott could have done himself after writing it. COMMENCEMENT EXERCISES IN DUE WEST. We learn from the Abbeville Banner that the "Examination in the Colleges at Due West will be? gin on Friday, July 9th, and close the Tuesday following. The Annual Sermon to the Settior Class in the two Colleges will be preached by Rev. D. 0. Puilxips, of Louisville, Geo., on Sunday, the 11th. On Tuesday night, the diplomas of the two literary societies in Erskine College will be deliv? ered by their respective representatives, with the usual responses from members of the class. The Annual Address before these Societies will be de? livered by Gen. John S. Pbesto.v, on Wednesday morning, the 14th, which will be Commencement Day in Erskine College. The Annual Essay of the Alnmnsean Association of the Female College will be read by Miss Corbie Watson, of this village. Immediately after the reading of the Essay, the Address of the Alumni Association of Erskine College will be delivered by Rev. R. W. Brice, of Chester. The Annual Address before the Amelian Literary Society of the Female College will be de? livered by Rev. W. W. Hicks, of Charleston, on Thursday morning, the 15th, which will be Com mencement Day in the Female College. This pro. gramme indicates a rich feast of reason, and the occasion promises much interest and attraction. HABEAS CORPUS. ' Col. Jesse McGee, William A. McGee, and Wji. Cuamblee, who were recently arrested by one Jerry Hollixsheao, a deputy constable of the State, for the supposed murder ot Charity Norris, otherwise called Charity Long, a colored woman, were to-day brought up before his Honor Judge Orb on habeas corpus. The McGee's were repre? sented by Messrs Reed & Brown, and Chahblee by Mr. B. F. Whitner. The deputy constable had been notified that the application would be made, that he might be present and make any counter showing, as were also the Chief Constable and the solicitor, but none of them were present. The parties were detained, as it would seem, upon the affidavit of the deputy constable, who is a stranger in this county, that he had reasonable grounds to believe that the parties charged were guilty; but what those grounds were, are matters of conjecture. The affidavits submitted by the counsel for the defence, showed very conclusively that the prisoners could not have been guilty of the offence charged. This was an aggravated murder, and it is to be hoped that its perpetrators may be discovered and brought to punishment; but in this instance we think the constable has been mista? ken. The testimony of the husband of the mur? dered woman, as read on the above application, Was that the murderers of his wife were negroes. Judge Orr, under these circumstances, admit? ted the McGee's to bail, each entering into bond in the sum of $500, with two or more sureties in the sum of $500; and Chambi.ee on his entering into bond in the like sum, with two or more sure lies in the sum of $1,000. The reason of the distinction was on account of the minority of Chamblee. ANOTHER IMPORTANT LEGAL DECISION. The Supreme Court of Georgia has ciecicled that the code of Georgia, adopted by the new constitu? tion, forever prohibits the marriage relation be? tween white persons and persons of African de. scent, and declares such marriages to be null and void. The opinion says that this sec tion of the code is not repealed by, nor is it inconsistent with ahat part of the constitution which declares that the social status of the citizens shall never be the subject of legislation. That clause of the consti? tution absolutely denies to the Legislature the power to pass laws iu future regulating the social stains or compelling the two races to unite in social intercow.-io. Ab the laws then in existence allow? ed churches, far instance, to determino for them? selves who should occupy their seats and wli are they should sit, and permitted railioads and steam? boat companies and hotel keepers to classify and assign places to those using their accommodations according to social values and grade as they might think proper, the constitution puts it beyond (he nower of the Legislature even to enact any liw compelling them to make difficult classifications or to group together in social intercourse those who d?s not recognize each other as social equals. As the social relations of citizens arc not the proper subjects of legislation, the coosliluiioa has wisely put the matter at net by denying to (he Legislature the power to repear or enact laws on that subject. ? About tho smallest piece of business of which . i-tavgovexTrment has j ot been guilty is the removal ?train office, on Wednesday last, of Mr. Tonry, to Yi*tf-> Miss Annie-S'irra'r wne married las? week MASONIC CELEBRATION. Thursday, the 24th instant, being St. John's Day, was celebrated at (his place by quite a num? ber of Masons from the Lodges of this and the surrounding counties, who had assembled to join in the "esfivities of the occasion. Fortunately the day was calm and clear, and but for the ex? cessive heat of the weather, the ceremonies would havs passed off pleasantly. At an early hour the large number of spectators who were in atten? dance began to assemble, and we were pleased to observe quite a number of the fair sex present to grace the occasion, with their charms. The- Masons assembled in the Masonic Hall, and about li o'clock were formed into procession by Major W. W. HOMPfHETS, and headed by the Brass *'3r.nd of Anderson, marched to> the Baptist Church, where the speeches were to be del^rercd. By the time the audience was seated, the' church and galleries were filled to repletion. The ora? tors of the occasion were tho Rev. S. A. Webber and Warken D. Wilkes, Esq. It was our misfor? tune to be so situated as not to hear distinctly all of the address of the first named gentleman, which we are satined was alike creditable to the head and heart of its author. His delicate health /rendered the task of making himself audible in a room so large and densely crowded*, one of groat difficulty, and before he was done, he betrayed evident signs of exhaustion-. It is to be regretted that one so young ami promising should, find such a difficulty interposed; between him-and the sphere i of usefulness-to> whfefi. he aspires. He wts followed-by G?L Wilkes, whose speech was short, well conceived and well delivered. It was among the best of his- efforts. After the speeohes were over, the Masons were reformed into a procession at I he churoh, and , marched-back to-the Masonic Hall, where an am? ple dinner was in readiness for them. Much credit is due to- the Andcrsoa Brass Band, which volunteered its services for the occasion. The day passed off pleasantly and quietly, and reminded us of the social gatherings of our peo? ple in dr.yf which have long since passed away. ?.-* THE ALB LINE RAILROAD. The Greenville Enterprise of last week contains an article, showing that the people of that town are going forward in their efforts to secure the Air Line Railroad. The subscription by the City Council 'f $100,000 is an evidence that they are in earnest, and our cotemporary is sanguine that efforts to that end will not be limited to the action of the authorities. The people are alive to the im? portance cf at once pressing onward, and are showing their faith by their works. We ca'.ied the attention of the people of Ander? son to tlrs great enterprise only a few weeks ago, but then.- has not been a single response to that editorial, and apparently there is great indifference to tho project. We feel confident that this is not really true, and that our people do wish to see the Air Line Road located advantageously to their interests. But they remain absolutely quiet on the subject, while others are urging adverse claims and backing their pretensions by liberal subscriptions. ShaU we continue listless and in? attentive, and allow the project to drift into other hands ? We quote from the Enterprise : On Monday, our City Council had a meeting to consider ihe propriety of subscribing for stock in the Air Line Railroad, on the condition of its pas? sing through the place, and we rejoice to announce that it was determined to sub-scribe the sum of one hundred thousand dollars by the corporation. The Council went the whole extern of the limits of the charter, ;.ud we commend theni for their enlight eued patriotic action, aud it must be highly grati? fying to them to know that the citizens of the place most heertly approve what has been done. The eiforts of the people of Greenville will not stop at the action of the Council; arrangements are already adopted to procure individual subscrip? tions of block on the same condition', which must succeed in raising a very large additional amount, not only in the limits of the City, but throughout the County. Every citizen, be he land holder, farmer, merchant, mechanic, or professional man, can afford to make the most liberal subscription of stuck, and gain in every way by so doing. In the first place, the instalments will not be called for till the location of the Road is made through Grecnvilie and work. of construction commenced. This will immediately raise the value of nil prop? erty and stimulate every business, and the Koad will thus remunerate the stockholders at once and enable them easily to raise the mouey from time to time as it may be wanted. Iu the second place, the stock it ,e.'f will be valuable, no subscription can be considered as a donation. The Air Line, when finished, will connect North Carolina. Virginia, Maryland, Washington City, Philadelphia, New York and Boston, with Georgia, Alabama, Missis? sippi, Louisiana with her great City of Orion", and Texas. At will constitute the straightest and, of course, the quickest and therefore the best route of travel for the immeuse populations of the States and cities we have mentioned, as well as for busi? ness purposes. The stock will pay, and in all probability will be nbove par. The benefits the Road mu -i bring to Greenville and all this section, have been so frequently insisted on that it is hard? ly necessity to reiterate, and the common sense of the people perceives also that a failure to secure this Road will be disastrous to every interest of the couutry, and place Greenville in a position of in? feriority that would be permanent. It will not do to think of losing the Air Line. We trust that the enthusiasm of a number of our citizens may be caught by every man, and that "with a long pull, a strong pull and a pull altogether," the trains of the Air Line may be brought smack up to our ' Queen City of the Mountains." The people of Greenville in urging the location of the Air Line Road through the City are much encouraged by the fact that this place is just about on the most direct, and at the same time best route, and we think cheapest that could be selected. The Company would be, it seems to us, a decided gain? er by the location, on accouut of these considera? tions and for the reason that it would build up a flourishing city on its route, with all its additions of business. Besides, the location through Green? ville still keeps the route on a line with Spartan burg, which would also be a place of decided im? portance, aud which will doubtless do her part to secure the success of the Road. It cannot bo expec? ted, however that the Uoad will come to us unless we show our faith by our works. Every man should subscribe for stock according to his utmost ability. ? The statistics of immigration at New York are still astounding to all who examine them, in comparison with the figures for previous years. Up to June 16, there had been landed at Castle Garden 124,088 foreigners during the present year?more by thousands than ever before during the same period, and nearly 30,000 more than du? ring the same time last year. From the lGth to the 22ud of Juno the arrivals numbered 8,074? making the total arrivals for the three weeks in June, 34,596. The number of Germans is the greatest-?40,956. Ireland follows with 20,354, the latter figures being for tho time up to the 16th of June. There is something significant in the movement of Swedes. In 1866 the whole number of natives of Sweden who came to this oouniry was but 109. For the twenty years between 1847 and 1867 the whole number from that oouutry was 26,565. In 1867 the number was 1,605, and iu 1868 it was 14,520, and during the time up to (he 16th of Juno of the present year the Swedes have already numbered 14,429. One thousand more of the same nationality arrived during the en? suing week. It is estimated, from carefully pre? pared data at the statistical bureau of the Treas? ury department at Washington, that during the part thirteen years we have received and assimila? ted tWQ W& a half million immigrants from other For the Anderton Intelligencer. Md. Editor: One again upon the "Rust" subject. My object in my first comtrunicdfion was to draw out some of the farmers ami investi? gate that evil, so as to arrive at a remedy, and some have been drawn out on the subject. I no? tice a communication from "Hazlewood." lie has given us some additional ideas which I like, par? ticularly where he sets forth the cause of the de? terioration of the wheat plant, and the manner in which we should select our seed. I also notice a communication from "M. H." which I like, with one exception ; that if where he refers to the article I wrote. He has not given credit for what I actually wrote. He says I nei? ther told what rust was, nor gave a remedy. If lie will read my article again, I think he will see that, after stating the causes nnd the manner in which rust developes itself, I stated uhat rust was?that is, I said what I thought it was, and that is all he has been able to do. "M. IL" has given us the botanical name of the thing, which is derived from a foreign language. In pliin Eng? lish, as that is the language our brother farmers are best acquainted with, I said rust in wheat was the copious liquids of the stalk, a super? abundance of 3ap, which, when heated by the hot sun,.expands, splits the stalk, runs out, is dried by The atmosphere, and changes its cs-ler to a brown spot. "M. H." says "it is a parasite," a "lichen," called "cryptagamia," roafces it out a living plant, having roots. Well, the- idea of a living, growing plant existing within another liv? ing, growing plant, at the same time, is a lUtte far? ther into the vegetable kingdom than I have ever been. So I will let it pass. And as a remedy for the evil, I suggested early Bowing, high manuring and a proper selection of seed, as he will see if h* will again read. ' He has given an additional item as a remedy which I am persuaded would be effec? tual. Deep tillage would let the heavy spring rains sink down into the subsoil, quite below the roots of the plant, as it is known thai: the roots of the wheat plant at that season of the year are to be found near the surface of the so .1. The soil being pulverized to a great depth, the water would be sunk, the plant would not be surfend with water, which would act as a check upon the pri? mary cause of rust. As a remedy for the disaster is the gist of the whole matter, I again state I believe early sowing and high manuring would be effectual against rust; because, since writing you first, I have been in conversation with some of the old fathers of the land, and they invariably tell me that in the days of their youth wheat was sown immediately after fodder-pulling, between the cor a rows, and at the gathering of the corn the wheat was several inches high, and in those days rust was not known. But they were driven from this practice by the fly in wheat, which was very disastrous. It now seems as if that evil had passed away and is not known; therefore, it would probably be safe to return to the practice of early sowing again. We would have but one difficulty to con? tend with?that is. late frost in the spring, and I would rather risk the late frost in the spring than the rust, as in all probability we would not have the late frost more than once in five years, and we have had the rust every year lately. Well, we have four different items now t et forth, making up a remedy : 1st. Proper selection of seed. 2nd. High manuring. 3rd. Deep cultivation. 4th. Early sowing. Brother farmers, let us try the remedy if we in? tend to raise wheat at all. We will lose nothing by the experiment, because in the application of the remedy as set forth, we will increase the quan? tity and quality of the grain and will improve our lands. And, Mr. Editor, I hope in the next twelve months that we, as farmers of this county, will be able to communicate to you that we have tiucceed ed iu checking the rust in wheat, and as % result have plenty of good buiscuitfor the table. Respectfully, L AR KIN NEWTON. Cufee Creek, S. C. -? ? THE BLUE RIDGE RAILROAD. Tho "act. that Governor Scott is advertising for contracts in connection with this road, says the Charleston Courier, givss rise to a reasonable pre? sumption that its completion may be looked for at an early day. A gentleman of some experience in such matters, writing to the Courier, suggests that a great portion of the road can be built, and that speedily, with convict labor. The many con? victs that now fill our jails, work houses and pen? itentiary can be made a source of revenue to the State, as our neighbors on the Savannah. River have done. General Ruger, while Military Gov? ernor of Georgia, leased the penitentiary convicts of that Stale to parties who obligated themselves to pay ten dollars for each one per month, feeding and clothing them. Tho convicts built the greater portion of the Selma, Rome and Dalton Road from Gross Plains to Rome, and are now building the Dalton Branch. Some two hundred and f fty are also at work on the Macon and Brunswick Road. The contractors find them the best labor they can get, and prefer them to free labor; while the con viots prefer laboring in the open air to being shut up in cells, by which means their condition is ameliorated. Let Governor Scott follow General Ruger's example, and hire out these convicts, and not subject the impoverished tax-payers of our Slate to the additional expense of feeding them. If the thieves and robbers who infest our State and rob and plunder for a living can be captnred and convicted, and put to this work, it will not only save the State many thousand dollars, but altio make them useful members of a community in which they have forfeited th?ir privileges. The project is worthy of a trial. --+ Cube fob Small-tox.?As the season for small? pox is approaching, we would call attention to the following cure for that dreaded malady, which is communicated to a German paper in New fork by a correspondent in China. It is said to have been discovered by a surgeon in the British tirmy on duty in China. The mode of treatment is as fol? lows : When the prececding fever is at its height, and just before the eruption appearp, the chest is rubb? ed with croton oil and tartaric ointment. This causes the whole of the eruption to appear on that part of the body, to ilie relief of the rest. It also secures a full and complete eruption, and thus pre? vents the disease from attacking the internal or? gans. Tins is said to be now the established mode of treatment in the English army in China by gen? eral orders, and is rogarded as a perfect cure. Think op It.?On Thursday last twelve thou? sand Chinamen arrived at Francisco. "Unless wc greatlv mistake," says the New York Herald, "this exodus from Asia brings with it the settle? ment of the negro question." It brings with it the issue, Who shall rule this country ?

The leading newspapers of New York, and in? deed of the whole country, unite in warm tributes to the life and chnracter of the late Henry J. Ray. Most), cditoT of the Times. A remarkable instance of his working ability and great powers of endu? rance is related as having occurred upon the death of Daniei, Webster, a statesman for whom Mr. Raymond had the greatest admiration. The intel? ligence reached New York on Saturday, and on Monday morning the Times contained an admira? ble biography, covering twenty-sis columns, aud in addition three columns of editorial on the same sub? ject, all from the pen of Mr. Raymond, who wrote sixteen columns of this extraordinary biography without stopping a moment to rest. As a feat of journalistic labor, it has probably never been equalled. From the numerous of flattering trib? utes of the metropolitan press, we select the con? cluding portion of the glowing eulogy in the TriM bvne, whose chief editor first encouraged the talent of his now departed confrere: While his hands were full of business and his life- full of activities, the strange, swift OTdcrcame to him to leave all this for larger occupation. There was no time to say his farewells to old asso? ciates, but they crowd to say a tender farewell to hinr. There is no journalist to take his place ; the epitome of his power is written thus.

DSATt? 07 a MlSER?HoW He accumulated Wealth?His Collection of Treasures.?There died in Baxter-street, yesterday morning an old man, 78 years of age, who, although he breathed his last breath on a heap of dirty rags and sur? rounded by misery and squalor, such as one can? not find outside of the above dirty thoroughfare, was worth a handsome fortune. Person? who have been accustomed to perambulate the streets ontbe East side of the city during the past few years are, no doubt, familiar with the sight of this old man, ! and have, no doubt, often stopped and watched his movements with pitying interest. This odd character was a ragpicker, aud a'lmest any morning during the past ten years, could be seen busily engaged in overhauling the garbage boxes and gutters along the Bowery and adjacent streets^ Dirty and dilapidated, his clothes patched and pieced in most grotesque style one would suppose, upon meeting him, that he was a man against whom Dame fortuno had an eternal spite, and who was persecuting him unrelentingly. Yet this old man was worth a fortune. 'Twas curious how he laid the foundation for his wealth. While raking among the filth of a gutter in Prince-street one morning about ten years ago, he found in the mud a valuable diamond, which he sold to a pawnbroker for several hundred dollars. This brilliant soli tarie was the nucleus around which many subse? quently clustered. Rumor had it that the old man was not honest, that much of the wealth which he had secured had been obtained by pilfering. But this was only a rumor, and although it was known that he possessed a valuable collection ef miscel? laneous jewelery and other valuables, still no theft was ever traced to him, and he was allowed to re? tain undisputed possession of his wealth. Once the police searched his old hovel for a stolen ring, and during tho hunt they found under the floor, buried in the ground, an old coffee-pot, containing jewelry and gold of great value, but the missing ring was not in the collection. The old man howl? ed like a maniac when his treasures were unearth? ed, and the story is that upon the departure of the officers he disposed of his jewels to a Chatham street pawnbroker, securing for them a handsome sum which he invested in real estate. The only relative of the old man now living is a little girl?his grandaughler?an inmate of an or? phan asylum, who will inherit the entire fortune left by the old miser.?New York San, 24th instant. -o ?
