MILL.-The new steam saw mill, recently erected
hy the Sladen Land Company (formerly Abbott,
Hanson & Co.,) at Risden Station, on the Wilming?
ton, Charlotte and Rutherford Railroad, was to
taliy destroyed by fire on Wednesday last. The
mill wee the most complete in the State outside of
trna city, being 80 by 80 feet, and two stories
high, with projection at tho end 40 feet long, and a
. wing for boiler house 26 feet in length. To it
Were attached a sixty-horse power engine, fine
. saws, belting, tools, shafting, Ac. The boiler and
. engine are probably not much injured. Between
$5000 and $6000 worth of lumber were saved-very
little burned. Tho cause of the fire, we learn, was
ajceWeirt*!. No insurance.
Fortunately the old mill of this Company was
not injured, and no other building burned. The
Company will, therefore, be enabled to fill orders
as heretofore.
Tee damage caused by this fire will be speedily
repaired, and rt is stated that the new mill will
"l be placed in operation within six weeks

GEN. LEE AND STONEWALL JACKSON.
Mr. WILLIAM SWINTON, well known as a writer of
great descriptive power, and as t he author of two
or three most valuable and interesting books, has
commenced a tour through the South as the cor?
respondent of the New York Tones. The following
we take from the first of his letters:
AN INTERVIEW AND CONVERSATION WITH GEN. LEE.
Having made a somewhat close study of the
campaigns of Gen. Lee, and having, besides, fol?
lowed with interest his operations on the actual
field of battle, I had long been desirous of learn?
ing, by personal sight and converse, what manner
of man he is. The proffer of an introduction by a
personal friend enabled me to gratify this wish:
and after breakfast we repaired to the residence of
the chieftain of the Army of Northern Virginia.
Ii stands on College Hill, and is a mod-'
eat brick dwelling with white wooden pillars in
front, placed amid a pretty garden, shaded by
some tine trees and a large solitary weeping wil?
low. Th? house is surrounded by a high fern
hedge that lends it somewhat the air of aristocratic
seclusion. Although it was no later than nine in
.'he morning, Gen. Lee had already gone to hie of?
fice in the college, which is but a stone's throw
removed. Here was a table piled up with papers
and college catalogues and textbooks; but no remi?
niscence of war was visible, no sword, or spur or
insignia. Whatever met the eye was entirely aca?
demic, nqt in the least militan-. And seated at
the table was a handsome-looking gentleman,
dressed in a uniform suit of pepper-and-salt color
a very portly, well-preserv ed gentleman, of Borne
four and fifty, with a fine bronzed complexion, a
nobly- modeled nose, compact head, gray hair arid
beard or the same color, closely cropped-who rose
to shake hands in a courtly, gracious manner. It
was tbo man who wielded the thunders of Chancel?
lorsville and the Ohir^ominy-it was Presi?
dent Lee.
With the putting off the harness of war, Lee has
laid aside all concern with the war and its
thoughts, reminiscences and passions, and ls de?
voting himself exclusively to the interests of
Washington College. To this fact was due that,
on the occasion of this, my first interview, I waa
only able to see. him for a fe w minutes; for he wis
on th? point of leaving to meet an appointment
with the Common Council of the town-a body be?
f?te which ne had to lay a question of great pith
and moment, to wit: the glading of a new path?
way to the college building. It ia such abstruse
and difficult problems that now engage his atten?
tion; and ifX testa: aright,.he finds it;harder
to hold' his own iii -those controversies 'than
he did in the deadly imminent point of
hattie. . He waa Rood enough, however, io
make an appointment with me for another hour ;
and on meeting him on his return I had with him
a long, full and frank convc reation. If it would be
of any interest to your readers to leam, what are
his views touching such questions in the Virginia
cam pains as I hp d occasion to ask enlightenment
from bim, it would yet be impossible for me to'
mako these public, seeing it was' the express re?
quest of Gen. Lee that I should refrain from doing
so. He has a mortal dread of appearing m the
papers, and. considering how he has been misrep?
resented, .this is not wonderful. I may say
that with .his friends he never recurs to the
subject of the war> nor did. he to me express
any opinion on political matters. I understand,
however, from those who are in intimate
daily converse with him, that he is strong?
ly in favor of the people of his' State, and of the.
South "coming right up, frankly accepting the
situation, and earnestly pursuing the work of re?
construction." Personally he ia at present io the.
flush of health. He frequently rides opt; and the
clearest imago I have been able to form of him in
the warlike mood came to me this afternoon wheo,
with high-top boots and leathern gauntlets, he
rode out on the same grey horse that used to bear
him in the stress of battle. He is greatly beloved
by the people for his modesty, gentleness and
goodness, and is a prodigious favorite with enri?
ar en.- "If you ah oula, see- bim as he. moves about
amoag-ua,'' said one of the people of the town to
ney ' naff*w^-smaffectod kindness sad Simplicity
of his life, you might fancy what he would be in
greenness." H? baa added great prosperity to the
wu, and Washington College, under his presi?
dency, has been lifted from the grade af a broken
down academy to the position of a respectable and
highly flourishing institution of learning.
That General Lee will figure in history, when it
cornea to be written with full light and without
passion or prejudice, aa a very able commander, a
skillful methodical soldier, who made several
admirable defensive campaigns, fought two or
three brillknt aggressive, actions, protracted the
war on thc limited theatre of Virginia for four
years by* careful husbandry of hie resources, and :
finally succumbed only to greatly superior num?
bers, may, I conceive, be readily conceded. That
he will figure, as the Sooth- now figures him, in
the light of a first-class Captain, may,' I behove, be
fairly doubted. His character takes, its shape
rather from an arhnirahla balance of intellectual
and moral qualities than from the possession
af any overmastering power. Some men
a ; very few - are ad?quate;; they yare su?
preme; they embody revolutions, they'alone are
worthy cf study. Lee was not of auch. He
lacked passion, he lacked abandon; perhaps
here I speak cautiously-he lacked true convic?
tion.. And yet I think I may say he lacked true
conviction. For it is well known that he was an
ardent lover of 'the Union, and that he was: as I
have learned since I came here, always at heart
an emancipationist. He was. therefore, not the
type of nor the leader for that fierce and Titan
spirit that, sought in the ruin of a nation to erect
an empire, on the foundation of slavery. Such a
spirit needed embo<liment in a brain and hand
swift and aggressive and flamboyant as itself."
Nor, on the other h ind, waa he great enough to
stand forth as a patriot; but he permitted himself
to be drawn into the vortex of passion that
seethed and bubbled in lus section, to be allured
bj poor blind fallacies, instead of following the in
s^tfen^gr^es*.7?Ihrdk he is fir from
happy. And yet his fame as a soldier, though not
?ist-class, is Terr sound and complete, so that
now, away from the field of war, and buried here
in quiet academio life, among these secluded bills,
it seems as though he had passed Sway from earth.
He is,all that is left to Virginia, magna mater
vimm, out of the wreck of a revolution. Is it,
then, wonderful that Virginians almost adore
him?
I stood this evening in the light of the descend?
ing sun at the grave of one of a different type-at
the grave of Jackson. "In Lexington in the valley
of virginia;" and berehe hes in the quiet
village churchyard. A simple slab is at the head
with only the name, "Gen. Thoa. J. Jackson/' and
ht bis feet a stone with the initials "T. J. J." A
garland of flowers lay on the grave ; and in my
heart I could feel no other-emotion thad one of.
tender interest in such proofs of affection.
STONEWALL JACKSON.
Jackson, for the ten years previous to the out?
break of the war, was 'Professor in the Military
institute here-''Professor of Natural Philosophy
and Artillery Tactics." I have seen and talked with
many of his neighbors and familiars, and have even
met several negroes who were members of the Col?
ored Sabbath School which he established here
and conducted with great success for many years.
As a teacher he was decidedly unpopular, and
it is said that he was very maladroit in his
experiments, which often resulted in ludi?
crous blunders, at which he would laugh as
heartily aa the lads in his class. At one time he
determined to acquire the art of public speaking,
and with this view he joined the Franklin So?
ciety, a literary association, which has existed
for many years, and which still exists in Lexing?
ton. He used to take part in the debates, but
with the most distressing stammerings, haltings
and break-downs, and never attained any more
than a mediocre faculty of utterance. As he
came more under the influence of the religious
sentiment, after the death of his first wife, he
ceased to attend the Franklin Society, and be?
coming more and more moody and eccentric, he
?rew more and more unpopular. Indeed he was
Kjked upon as a kind of mild lunatic, and the
board bad frequent meetings with the view of
displacing him from his chair in the Academy. At
length the war broke out and the qualities that
had smouldered in mere fire-damp suddenly burst
Into a clear and steady flame. All the people here
speak of the wonderful change that came over him
at the outbreak of the war. Though be had been
all bis lite an ardent State Rights Democrat, yet
he bitterly opposed secession. Nevertheless when
the war came, he threw into it all the tremendous
energies of his nature. Then his religious fervor
became a guiding light and an impelling pow?
er. He behoved that he was litter ally led
by the hand of God, ?'Most men will think,"
he said, referring to hie overwhelming
attack at Chancellorsville, " that I had
planned it all from the firsts but it was not
so. I simply took advantage of circumstances as
they presented themselves to me in the Provi?
dence of God. I feel that His band led me,"
Long before the war, and even in regard to minor
matters, ho used to express the samo views of
Divine intervention ani inspiration ; and in one of
his letters, which I have read, he says that
"through the grace given bim from above," he
feels that rain will fall at snob and such a time.
Certainly, he was an extraordinary man ; and
standing by his grave this evening I seemed to re?
alize that there lay below the only man who could
have conducted the war to a successful issue on
the part of the South.
But I must cease these musings or I shall run
out this, letter to an undue length. Indeed,
there is here very little else on which to descant.
The iiitcre.-t of Lexington centres almost entirely
in its educational establishments, and both are
pronounced to be in a very prosperous condi?
tion. The last catalogue of Washington Col?
lege shows 399 students now in attendance, and
there are constantly new applicants for admis?
sion. The commencement, which is to come off
about the middle of thia month, is looked for?
ward to as one of the great fasti ; and I under?
stand Gov. Pierpoint and Gener&LSohoneld are
both to be here. There is less political talk here
than at any other place 1 have visited. Yet in a
very extended intercourse, I have foi.nd the peo
Ele perfectly well disposed-everybody mtenaing
) register and do all lie can to aid practical recon?
struction, Tho blacks in this region are quiet,
peaceable and industrious, and there is entire h r
mony between the races. There is far more pros?
perity here than in tide-water Virginia; ana the
crops in this region, as all tho way down the valley
to the Potomac, are looking magnificent-farmers
from all parts tell me they are the finest they over
saw. The houses, and barns, and mills burned dur?
ing the war have all been replaced by superior
structures; the great valley is blossoming like a
rose, and I hope it may soon be said of its inhabi?
tants,, as Nama PciapehW said of ^he inhabitants
of another happy valley, that "protected by the
Divinity they adore, supported by tho earth which
they cultivate, and at peace with themselves, they
enjoy the sweets of life, without dreading or de?
siring desolation."
Tile Duty ot* time Hour.
It isa promising sign of the times that in all
portions of tho Union independent journals are
presenting the question of reconstruction to busi?
ness men, and urging them to look at it from the
standpoint of national and individual prosperity,
and not mere party success. In a late number cu
the Boston Herald we find the following, which is
too good to be overlooked:
Ii the time has not yet come when the American
people can attend to their material interests, we
are at a Joss to know when it will come. Two
years of peace have been spent in experiment upon
the political reconstruction of the Southern States,
and the people of the South now seem to be pro?
ceeding with commendable promptness in carry?
ing ont the plan prepared by Congross for their
admission into the Union. They may safely be
left to themselves and the officers of the
Government charged with superintending the
reorganization of society in that section, and the
attention of the masses of the people, both North
and South, can be directed to the material in?
terests of the country that bave been so lotg
neglected. So far as ute people are concerned wo
are satisfied that they are ready to take this com?
mon sense view of the question. They have had
enough of contention and strife to last them for a
generation. They have bad enough of debt and
taxation to satisfy their wildest aspirations in that
direction. They are siok and tired of the war?
fare that has been waged on abstract questions.
They know well enough that our material inter?
ests have been allowed to suffer, and tho coun?
try languishes under the oppressive burdens that
impracticable men have piled upon it. Tho/ now
want a chance to use their capital and devote
their labor to the reparation of the damages sus?
tained in the war. Why should they not
be allowed to attend to their own affairs, and, by
the exercise of an enlightened self-interest, go on
developing the resources of the country and accu?
mulating wealth to lighten, the burdens under
which we labor? The schemes of politicians ar?
all that prevent this desirable consummation.
The country languishes for tte want of practical
si atesmen in place of political mountebanks who
have wormed their way into office. The great
question now to be met in this country is the
finan :ial question ; but everybody knows that
Congress takes hold of that question last and
devotee to it the least of its tune. The condi?
tion of the currency, the rate of taxation, and
the redemption of. the mortgaged wealth of the
country from the hands of its creditors, are subjects
that have never yet been handled as though they
ha ' anything to do with the material prosperity of
the country. Business men see tint trade and
production languish, that money ia scarce, though
the currency has been expanded to twice ita nor?
mal volume! and that these two evils are driving
business out of the country and retarding the de?
velopment . of our resources. If we go on in this
way, how shall we escape bankruptcy and ruin?
We confess that the prospect is dark, and that it
is growing darker every day while we continue on
our present course. We see no hope except in the
good eenao of the people, who axe growing restive
under their burdens, and who already manifest a
disposition to inquire What benefit they are to re?
ceive for the lavish expenditure of their money.
What Kelley Said.
Kelley has been heard from at last. The Repub
lican Executive Committee tendered him a seren?
ade on. Thursday evening last, and of course the
herb made a speech. In congratulating himself at
being "ak home" again and out of danger, the
great man thus alluded to his little escapade at
Mobile: ? g
.When cowering before more than a hundred bul?
lets, when my body waa shielded; by those of two
negroes from injury, then it waa I realized how
clear was home.
' But he said nothing about the gunboat-nothing
about bis.marvelous run out of the harbor in a
government transport-nothing about "the Fif?
teenth Regiment, or "the whole army of the
United States," which were ld?'hackers. The
"two negroes" who acted as his shield came in for
all the glory-the white soldiers who protected
him were completely ignored. Besides thus kind?
ly reftwing to the "two negroes,1' he did a com?
pliment to : North Carolina in the following bril?
liant language:
North Carolina is the most beautiful and richest
portion of earth upon which my eye oz feet ha?s
ever rested. This State; from which more than
50,000 of ber sons have Sod (o Indiana aod Illinois,
is the land of wine, of honey, of the apple ana
the peach, of the fig and the pomegranate, all of
which we saw prosper in the open field, and under
the most artless culture. '
In the 4200 miles we travelled the whole earth is
underlaid with gpld, sd that a child, with an ordi?
nary wash, basin, could wash the sands from the
rivulets and make at least three dollars a day, and
yet I have never seen such poverty as I found in
North Car olin a. ' , .
Whop, our edi Ional-.brother of the Prosa saw the
"lovely watering piades-owscothna*' in passing up
the British Channel to Liverpool, we thought he
had done wonders, but Commodore Kelley beat
him ail hollow whoL: he discovered "forty-two hun?
dred miles of earth': underlaid with gold, so that .
child with a wash basin could wash the sands from
the rivulet i and make at least three dollars a day."

morning received a very agreeable notice that a
sack of th o article was ready at McBee's Flouring
Mills, awaiting our order. Our best obeisance to
the gentleman who bas BO kindly furnished us
wich the material aid that enables us to realize our
anticipation.-Mountaineer.
BROKE JAIL.-Two prisoner confined in Jail at
this place made their escape on Wednesday night
hut, ny sawing cut the grating. '1 heir names are
Wm. J. Eppes and James A. Greer. These men
were sentenoed at the last term of our Court to the
Penitentiary-one for stealing cotton, the other
for horse st ealing.-Laurensvvle Herald.
DECEASE.-We are pained tb record tho death of
Captain J. O. Hunter, of this District, who died on
the 12th inst, of brain fever. Captain H. was
highly esteemed by ail who knew him, and his loss
is a serious one to our District, as he was a man
of fine intellectual attainments, and a lawyer by
profession, though at the time of his death was
not in the practice. We deeply sympathize with
his bereaved frionas.-Laitrrencev?'ile Herald.
EQUITY COOBT.-The Court of Equity will Bit
here next week, which is the regular June term.
We learn that Chancellor Le scene will preside.
There are not so many new oases on the Docket,
but a goodly number of old ones-many of them
venerable and entitled to much consideration on
account of age.-Lawrenceville Herald.
THE WEATHER AND THE CBOPB.-The weather
oontinucs fine, and the crops of corn, cotton, Aa,
is fully coming up to the expectations of every
one. So far, the labors of the husbandmen
have been crowned with success, and from all parte
of the District the accounts of the growing crop
seem of the most encouraging nature. Some few
of our friends have had one General Grass to con?
tend with recently, it is true, but the last few days
of hot, dry weather, has enabled them to get the
upper hand of him, and from present appearances,
it is very generally supposed that the orop of this
year will compare favorably with any yet planted.
The wheat crop is excellent, and we have yet to
hear of the first failure.-Barnwell Sentinel.
MAIL ROUTES ESTABLISHED.-We are pleased to
learn from a correspondent at Dumbarton Post
office, in this District, that a mail route has been
established from Aiken to that place and Tinker's
Creek: aleo, from Augusta to Roberteville, passing
bv ami supplying the mail to Beech Island, Four
Mile Brauch, Speedwell, King Creek and Lower
Three Buns. The contract has been given to Mr.
Solomon Cochran, and is to take effect on the first
of July.-Barnwell 8?nl\ne\.
NARROW ESCAPE-The express wagon belonging
to the firm of Messrs. Hasseltine A Chafee-plying
between this place and Rock Hill, met with a narrow
escape while crossing the Catawba River at Jones'
Ferry, on Friday last. When some distance from
the Dank the flat Bunk, carrying down with it the
wagoo, six mules, and a heavy load of merchan?
dize. Through the exertions of the drivers tho
team was out lc ose and saved; a portion of the
load was then removed and the boat rose to the
top and hove to. No considerable damage sus?
tained.- Lancaster Ledger.
THE WEATHER.-For two days we have had unusa
ally cool weather for June. Tue young cotton looks
drooping, and seema to bo affected to some extent
by the lice, We have had an abundance of rain re?
cently, in some localities too much, but the young
corn looks vigorous. So far we have had very little
warm weathor.-Bennettsville Journal.
THE MTXITABY POST or COLUMBIA.-Tho arrival
of General Burton and his command at this post
is hailed with universal sat isl a 'ti ou. He is en?
deared to fie Southern people as the commanding
officer at Fortress Monroe, for tho kindness and
courteous treatment he extended the State pris?
oner he had under his charge from the assump?
tion of his command at the fortress. He comes
a t ong us with a high character as a soldier and
gentleman, and we have no doubt will be cordially
received by the citizens of Columbia,
This post has been highly favored with com?
mandants and orderly troops, tnd Gen. Burton is
a fitting successor to Gen. Green, who has just
left us for moro active duty in the West,-Phoenix.
COURT or FRUITY-The June Term of the Court
of Equity for this District will oommence on Mon?
day next, Chancellor W, D. Johnson presiding. It
is the first time this accomplished jurist has visited
this District; but his reputation has preceeded
him, as one of tho brightest ornaments to tho
Bench of South Carolina.- Phoenix,
THE WHEAT HARVEST.-Tho wheat harvest in
this section, says the Romo Commercial, is now
in full blast, and a splendid prospect for a good
yield. The samples we have seen aro very fine;
grain largo and heavy. We muy safely say that
Cherokee Georgia will raise wheat enough to sup?
ply the entire State if judiciously used. We have
beard of the sale of one crop at two dollars per
bushel. Every farmer should sell his wheat at
once, as wc are of opinion, from the prospect
throughout the Union, that tho crop will be largely
over an average one.
THE CROPS.-From all parts of the country wo
are in receipt of the most favorable DOWS concern?
ing the crops, especially wheat. The crops prom?
ise as great a yield as in any year for the past
twenty years, and we hope that Providence will
continue his blessing and allow our suffering peo?
ple to harvest a plentiful supply of food this year.
The oat crop, also, looks excellent, and upon thc
wliolo, our people have reason to be greatly re?
joiced at the favorable prospect before us, as far
os the staff of life is concerned.

sar TO THE PUBLIC_THE JEWISH CON?
GREGATION (Berith Shalom) was organised bi this dry
about ten years ago, and for temporary purposes con?
structed s small building near the corner of St, Phillp
and Calhoun streets. In this humble House of God they
have ever since worshipped. It was their design from
the c mmen cement to accumulate funds toward erecting
a Urger edifice, more commodious, and more In conso?
nance with tho wants of the present age. But their
savings were all swept sway by the war, and nearly three
thousand douars, set apart ft? this purpose, were thus
lost ' . .
The new house of worship is much needed, there beug
constant applications' from new merah rs, but no room
I to accommodate them. The servi es of this congrega?
tion are conducted bi the German (almost Identical with
the Poliah) Minhag. And this is tho only synagogue tn
Charleston in which Israelites from Continental Europe
can worship the God of their fathers In precisely the
same forms, language and ceremonies as than* fore?
fathers did.
'lhey are, however, too poor to carry out such an en?
terprise unaided. They have the ground for the new
synagogue, but not the means to construct the building.
They therefore aolicit assistance from their brethren and
friends everywhere ; both from ttaose of the House of
Israel, and from all others, of whatever faith or nation ;
believing that the Great Author of all good will prompt
many to step forward, and help them in this their time
of need They are extremely solid tous to finish their
new bu'lding before next Both Hathanah (September
30), ss there ls every reason to expect a large accession of
worshippers, far befond tho caped ty of the present small

It appears from sundry petitions and official repre?
sentations that the present scanty supply of food in the
Carolinas is seriously dimlniahel by the large quantity j
of grain consumed in numerous distilleries, put up and
worked in defiance of tbs revenue laws of the United
States ; it is represented that few or none of the require
m e n ts of law are observed hi any of these establishments ;
that the officers of the Internal revenue service, while
endeavoring to assess and collect the whiskey tax, are
frequently treated with desaeepect, sud sometimes
menaced with violence ; and that when offenders are
prosecuted m the civil courts, and violations of the In?
ternal revenue laws indisputably proved. Juries bul to
convict the parties ; lt ls further shown that this un?
lawful trafilo makes food dearer hi places where large
numbers are depending upoif public and private bounty ;
that the Government is, esides, defrauded of a large
amount af revenue ; that the authority of ita civil officers
is brought into oonten.pt ; sud furthermore, that the
mischief complained of tev ds to increase poverty, dis?
order and crime ; therefore, in the exercise of the au?
thority vested lu the Commanding General, it ls ordered
that
L The distUation or manufacture of whiskey or other
spirits from grain, is prohibited in this Military District
Any person so engaged or employed will be deemed guil?
ty of a misdemeanor. The possession of a still, or other
apparatus for this purpose, will be considered presump?
tive evidence of a violation of the Revenue Laws, and the
party or parties using the same, or on whose premia.a,
or in whoso possession the same may be found, will be
arrested and brought to trial before a military tribunal
composed of the Commanding O.ticer of the Post and j
two officers of the army, next in rank on duty within the
territorial limits of the Poet If the exigencies of the
service do not permit the detail of other officers, that
fact will be duly certified and the Poet Commander will
hear and determine the case.
IL The penalties, punishments and forfeitures pre?
scribed by the severaf acta of Congress for distilling or
manufacturing whiskey or other spirits in violation of
tho revenue laws will be imposed and executed by the
military tribunals hereby authorized.
UL No sentence extending totimprisonment, forfeiture
