State Items* FIRE.-At about five o'clock, yesterday morning, the alarm of fire was sounded, and was found to proceed from the extensive cotton gin warehouse of Mr. A. B, Colton, situated near the Greenville and Charleston railroad depots. The. building and contents, consis ting of cotton and machiherv, was entirely destroyed. Mr, Colton was sleeping 'in the buflding, And barely escaped with his life. The larger portion ol' the property was insured. The fire is believed to be the work of an incendiary. Columbia Phoenix. The dwelling of Mrs. Mary Lamar, situated some two miles from Hamburg, Edgeneld District, was consumed by fire on the night of the 21st ult. Cause of Che fire has not been ascertained. Governor Orr oners a reward of nine hundred dollars for the arrest of Brown, Sullivan and Burk head, and their delivery in any jail in the State, or three hundred dollars for the apprehension of either of them.-Abbeville Press. Nothing of interest has transpired since our last, save that a meeting of the railroad officials, which resulted in the prohobie discontinuance of the ac? commodation tiains on the different roads that connect at ibis place. We also learn that there has been a geneial discharge of workmen from the N. E. Railroad anop. The cause, we understand, is, the business done by the road at present is not sufficient to defray the expenses of all the work? men that they hud employed.-Florence Gazette. Buenos CoarKUTED.-Governor Orr has com? muted the sentence of Wright Sullivan, freedman, condemned to bs hung here on March 1st for high? way robbery, to hard labor for .fifteen years inthe penitentiary.-LaurehsmLe Norold.

FATAL AFFRAY.-A most unfortunate circumstance transpired in this city Yesterday afternoon by which Clem. C. Howell, Esq., lost bis fife at the hands of C. C.

Of the origin of the difficulty, or to which of the com? batants should be attached the blame for the pain? ful ?transaction, we have no knowledge.

A DECLARATION FROM THE EPISCOPAL BISHOPS. ?i declaration against ritualism bas. been put forth by moro than onb-half of the Bishops of tho. Episcopal Church of the'United States, with their signatiu'es attached. It is as follows : Wo hold, in thc languogo of the thirty-fourth article of religion, that "'every particular or nation? al church hath authority to ordain, change and abolish ceremonies or rites ol'tho church, ordained only by man's authority, KO that all things bo done? to edifying," and also, "in tho language or the samo article; that "it is not necessary that traditions and ceremonies be in all places cue, or utterly like; for at all times they have boen diverse, ami may be chauged according to the diversity of countries, times, and men's manners, so that nothing ordained against God's Word;" and also, that this church was duly organized as a "particular and national church'' in eommnuion with the Universal or Holy Catholic and Apostolic Church of Christ, and that this organization, whioji took place immediately after theAniorican iiovolution.was settled under thc careful direction and advice, and with the cordial co-operation ol' godly, well-learned and justly-vcn 01 at ed divines, who wero well acquainted with the nistovv of the Church of England before and since ber blessed reformation, and who thoroughly un? derstood what was and is s'iil required by tho peculiarities of this country and its poople. Wo hold, therefore, that tho ceremonies, rites and worship then established, ordained and ap? proved by common authority, as set forth in thc ?ook of Common Prayer of this Church, ave' the law of tho Church, which every bishop, presbyter and deacon of the same has bound himself by subscription to tho promise of conformity, in arti? cle 7 of the constitution, to obey? observe and fol? low ; and that no strange cr foreign usages should bo introduced or sanctioned by the private judg? ment of any member or members of this Church, clerical or lay. We farther hold, that while this Church is "far from intending to depart from the Church' of Eng? land in any ?iseential point of doctrine, discipline or worship, or further than local circumstances re? quire," it yet has its peculiar place, character and duty as a " particular and national Church ;" and that no prayer book of tho Church of Englaud, in tho reign of whatever sovoreing set forth, and no laws of the Church of England have any force ol' law in this Church, such as can be justly cited in defence of any departure from thc express law of this Church, its liturgy, its dicipliuo, rites and usajres. And we therefore consider that iu this particular national church nny attempt to introduce into thc public worship of Almighty God usages that have never boen known, such as th e uso of incense, and tho burning ot lights in the order for the holy com? munion, reverences to the holy table or the ele? ments thereon, such as indicate or imply that tho sacrifice of our divine Lord and Saviour "once offered" was not a "fall; perfect and sufficient sacri? fice, oblation and satisfaction, for the sins of the whole world;" the adoption of clerical habits, hitherto unknown for material alterations of those which have boen in use since the establishment of our Episcopate, is an innovation which violates the discipline of tho church, "offendeth against its common order, and hurteth the authority of the magistrate and wo undo th the consciences of tho weak brethren." ? Furthermore, that we be not misunderstood, let it be noted that we include in these censures all departures from the laws, rubrics and settled order of this church, as well by defect as by ex? cess of observance, designing to maintain in its integrity the sound scriptural and primitive, and, therefore, the Catholic and Apostolic spirit of the Book of Common Prayer. The Bigners of the declaration : Bishops Smith, of Kentucky; McHvaine, of Ohio; Kemper, of Wis cousinf McCoskry, of Michigan; Lee, of Delaware; Johns, of Virginia; Eastburu, of Massachusetts; Chaso, of New Haven; Upfoid, of Indiana; Payne, African Mission; Williams, of Connecticut; Davis, of South Ckrolina; Kip,--of California; Lee, ol' Iowa; Clark, of lthode Island; Gregg, of Texas; Assistant Bishop Bedell, of Ohio; Whipple, of Min? nesota; Assistant Bishop Talbot, of Indiana; Wil? mer, of Alabama; Vail, of Kansas; Coxe, of West? ern New York; Clarkson, of Nebraska; liaudall, of Colorado; Kerfoot, of Pittsbmg; Williams, of China Mission; Assistant Bishop Cummins, of Kentucky; Assistant Bishop Armitage, Wisconsin. A letter from New York says that an answer to the declaration is already drawn up, and will probably be given to . the public in the course of the ensuing week.' There is reason to belief' that it will be endorsed by the following bishops: Potter, of New York; Hopkins, of Vermont; Whit? tingham, of Maryland; Hawke, of Missouri; South Sate, late of Constantinople; Green, of Mississippi; tkinson, of North Caro Ima ; Scott, of Oregon and Washington; Odenheimer, of New Jersey; Lay, of the Southwest; Quintard. of Tennessee; Neely, of Maine; Tuttle, Bishop elect of Montana; and Wil? mer, of Louisiana.

Arc they included among I;Ui^&sfranchised or not?-Petersburg Index, j .J *r: We trust our people will not suppose that chaos has come again. Tho queries of the Index, though not iutonded for that purpose, are un? doubtedly well calculated to excite unnecessary apprehensions. Wc would reply to them as fol? lows: . . .. 1 1. Jeff Davis cannot bc tried by a military com? mission. This act gives the " awful brigadiers" power to organize commissions for the trial ofper sons for offences hereafter to be committed. They will haruly " go back on us." M . 2. Judicial decisions affecting debts, titles, &c, rendered by the officers of a de facto or pro? visional government will bo held to be good. Those rendered in this State e vcr? during the war, aro now respected. 3. Pardoned persons are included among the dis? franchised. An amendment .to tho Sherman bill \?as offered in the Senate by Mr. Doolittle (or Mr. Cowan) which provided that persons pardoned " in accordance with the Constitution and laws," should not be disfranchised, or disqualified for office ; but it was voted down by a large majority. North Carolina Items. , Wo leam that on Saturday afternoon, a negro man named Wiley Wiggins was shot, and supposed mortally wounded, by another negro, named -- Cofer, about five miles above Halifax. It seems that Wiggins went to Gofer's premises and com? menced a disturbance. Cofer went into the house, and being followed by Wiggins, pushed him out, whereupon Wiggins raised his gun to shoot Cofer. Cofer closed the door, and getting his own gun, put the muzzle out ufa slit opening and fired at random, but hit Wiggins. Cofer was carried to Halifax and bound over in the sum of $500 to ap? pear at the next term of the Superior Court. ' [ Weldon State. We regret to announce that Captain W. R.

Whenever reports of outrages are received, pan ics will bo sent m pursuit of these "BegulatorB," and when resistance to arrest is made they will be treated as "Guerrillas" and sum? marily punished; All prisoners so ai rested will be held in military confinement and the case reported to headquarters at Charleston. [From the G<iinesville (Afiss.) Star.] The Southern Pine Woods. It has not been customary hitherto in estimat? ing the resources of the South to attach any value to the pine forests which extend from the Missis? sippi to the Atlantic, and 100 or 200 miles north? ward from the Gulf. A few saw mills on the rivers, a fefr schooners engaged in carrying lumber to market, a few barrels of tar, and still less turpen? tine, told tho whole story for the business of a tract of country extensive enough for a small em? pire. The minds of the people were occupied with two all-absorbing ideas. One was to get many "nig? gers" in order to- make large crops of cotton; the other to ma;?e splendid crops of cotton in order to buy more 'Triggers.-" Meanwhile, these pine forosts waved ?D the wind, making music of a melancholy sort, an almost un? broken solitude. But of late a change is coming over the spirit of our dream. This Sleepy Hollow ofouisshow8 signs of waking up. The* country near the mouth of tho Pascagoula river is alive with saw mills and fleets of schooners carrying the products of the mills to market. Here, on the Pearl, as well as at varioud other points along the coast, the same business is carried on with energv, and with evident profit to all who engage in it. In addition to this, the turpentine works, in suc? cessful operation at this place, indicate the begin? ning of a new era for tho pine woods. Owing co a deficiency in the capacity of the boiler connected with the steam engine, only five of the ten retorts can so far be kept at work at the same time; and the daily product of these from two cords and a half of tat pine wood, is sixty gallons of pure spirits of turpentine, eight barr?is of tar, and twenty barrels of charcoal. These residts will be doubled as soon as a new boiler can be obtained. We understand the proprietors of the establish? ment, Johnson & Guilet, consider their experiment a success. And doubtless many others, seeing that the risk of testing this business has beeii taken by others, will, now that there is no longer any risk connected with it, ongago largely in it; and we shall soon see at all convenient and access? ible points, turpentine works distilling the pine knots and the dead pines into turpentine and tar, while the saw mills aro converting into marketable lumber tho green pinoB and cypresses. Aud with the inexhaustible supplies of fuel for driving steam engines, where can be found a moro eligible locality for tho cotton and woolen mills needed for working up tho '.-ottoti und wool which will be produced in thc section of country around us ? ? Cotton has had its day; commerce, its full time ot prosperity and glory; tho manufacturers of Now England have been run some distance into the ground; let ali parties and thc rest of the world now for a little while make room for tho Pine Woods of Mssissippi. Stand out oj' thc wav, if von please, and let the mourners conic forward and take tho front seats.

BOSTON, February 28.-Trade continues moderately active, considering the general d?pression ' of business. IQ prices there has been no change, anj tho general be? lief is that they have touched the lowest point lor the season. The withholding of active operations among manufacaurors, which has now become quite general, and which ls still further prompted by the aspect of the leather market of late, and the gradual reduction of the stock on band, inclines many to the belief that an advance of prices will occur in the course of the next two weeks. This, however, is doubtful, espe? cially if the downward tendency of materiale *conttnuo.
