Meeting of thc CKurteHton Bar. It being understood that the Hon. R. B. Carpenter, the judge of this circuit, was about to retire formally from the beech, the mem? bers of the Charleston Bar assembled in the Equity Court-Room at 1 o'clock yesterday. This meeting of the bar was, so far as we know, the largest and most important that has been seen in this city since the end of the war. Alter closing the equity business upon which he had been engaged, Judge Carpenter arose and, with evident emotion, spoke as follows : REMARKS OF JUDGE K. B. CARPENTER. Gent?nnen of the Bar of Ciiarleston-l have frequently had occasion to address my fellow citizens upon various subjects, and very often [ have felt that word6 were poor channels to sxpress the emotions of the heart. But never bas their utter Inadequacy been more thor jiighiy realized than t?-day. Somewhat more than three years ago I came to the City of Charleston-a stranger-and less ?an two years since took my seat upon this jench as judge of this circuit. I entered upon ts duties with distrust. Events then recent iad so changed the condition of affairs-legal u> well as political-that no one knew where :he old law ended, or the new law began; and, noreover, I was unfamiliar with the local itatutes and practice of South Carolina. Nevertheless, I brought to the discharge ot ny duties upon the bench an energetic pur toae to labor faithfully and honestly in the dis marge of the duties of my office; such a labor I is the true ends of justice required. Beyond : hat, perhaps, I had very few other quaflflca- I ions. Ana if I have hod some little success, ; t is due in a very great measure to the fair- I less and integrity ot the Charleston Bar. They I lever attempted to deceive me. They never I tated that to be law which they did not bo- 1 leve to be law, and uniformly, upon the bench, ! have been treated with kindness, considera- < ion and respect. i After seeing something of the storms of life ' rt other-spheres, the Judicial office, although a i osit?on of labor, was one of comparative I uiet My mind-had but to seek for truth, far < wa^from the conflicts of public life. j Now, I see before*me the billows raging I igher.than ever, -anB the storm more threat- < ni rig, yet an imperative sense of duty compels t te to leave a position where all my relations s ave been kind, and all my associations have I een of a character to which I can recur with' i o. other thin grateful feelings. Whatever < lay be my future destiny, in the Providence of i od, I shall not forget them, but to the last our of my life shall cherish the sympathy . hieb. I feel has been engendered during my ocupad cy of the bench. I now. gentlemen ot ? ie bar, respectfully and affectionately, with veryTOBO, for your happiness and prosperity, . Dllectlvely and individually, bid you a final ?ewell. Judge Carpenter then retired from the * wm. Ou motion of Hon. A. G. Magrath, the vene ibl? ex-Chief Justice Dunkin was called to t ?the chair. ? RESURKs-Ot-^ON. W.M. DE8AC38?RE. j? Afr. C/Vtfr-ft^-We hive assembled on this ? ocasi?n for a very unusual purpose; for it is a o rcumstarice almost unknown in South Caro- tl aa that one in the prime of Ufe and in the 0 il vigor of his intellect and manhood shonld tl aire from the honors of the Judicial bench of g testate. As was said by Judge Carpenter, ; jwever, a few moments ago, an imperative >nse of duty has compelled him to vacate the a >mparative quiet and dignity of his official tritton to embark' upon other duties, which a considered of greater import. -K To those of us who have p ractlced before him P ir the past two years, it Is a pleasure to bear n istimony to the manner in which he has dis larged the responsibiUties of his-office. He i ime among us au entire strange*, ? Ith our .ejudlces naturally excited again ,t him be- ?? tuse he was a stranger. He came among us/ a hue we were still heated with the rem inls- u ices ol a long and bloody struggle. He came us at a time when our law was upturned ; a hen old things had passed away and the new n td not come In: when there was an accumu- tl tlon of Judicial business In the courts such as t? LS never been known tn this country. The a mest efforts of those who had preceded him, boring by day and night, had failed to clear 3| e dockets, because the novelty and magni de of the questions were so great, and the .salons of men were still so excited, as to re?? ir lt almost impossible to eliminate the truth ? >m the mass of new and unfamiliar laws. It is In this condition of things that Judge Car inter took his seat upon the bench. But he ought to the office untiring energy, abiUty, B( regrlty, and a quickness of apprehension S Weh enabled him to grapple quickly with and it Hw the vexed questions of this court. . Ba realized, and so acted promptly, the im- u irtance of meeting the issues immediately fe ese a ted. knowing that there were courts be- ti md to which these questions might finally be . ferred. -And he cave to these judicial sub- n :ts Ml, fair and impartial triais: and I be- tl ive I speak the sentiment of ray brethren of o e bar, when I say that, os a whole, his con- fl tot has given great satisfaction. Some among us, who have had adverse de- t( ?lons from him. could not but differ at the lt ne with the Judgment he rendered, and yet g e could not ont respect the opinion so pro- " mneed. That respect has continued to in- t ease, because we learned to confide in his ai mesty of purpose, andhls determination to rard what he cofjcelveaTo be justice. For one. therefore, lam frank: to say that e preJudlceSfljofWiree yearsagqjiave been ? itirely obllter/al^drand ;T"have J??rned to re- k .rd Judge Carpenter, who-come a-'stranger D, long u?. as t'n?.who-hos 'endeavored todo . ItiOtt. In parting, then,- with/ Judge ? arpenter, we -part with erne *? who bas ti me honor to the .Ranch,.'-to the State ti d to our clients, while at. the ?ame time he s treated the memrjera-Akthe"*bar with that n ortesyand impartiality which has always s| articterlzed the Judiciary of South Carolina, k In conclusion,.! desire to offer the following - earn ole and resolutions: ?? '..J m Whereat, The Bar of Charleston have learn- ci ; that' the Hon.' R. B. Carpenter ls about' tb ri sign his position as Judge .of this Circuit, the ities of which office he has discharged with itinguished ability and fidelity. ei Ana whereas they deem it but a just tribute B place upon record th e lr estimate of the im- ff rtiallty, courtesy and signal talents which f. ve characterized his judicial course on the u neb; therefore, be it jo Resolved, That the Bar of Charleston, assent? ed, do tender to the Hon. R. B. Carpenter elr profound recognition of the high charac r. Judicial integrity and ability with which he m s presided in the courts of Justice. e, Resolved, That we wiU preserve a lively re- ?j ? mb rance of the manner in-which he has Q1 er held the scales of ' utice with even hand tc d vindicated the dli;i v and purity of the 0l r.i . Resolved, That the priding officer o? this 01 jeting be requested to convey the above ei solutions to the Hon. R. B. Carpenter, and a< at they be spread upon the minutes of the rt urt. 11 Al REMARKS OF GENERAL JAMES CONNER. I take pleasure, Mr. Chairman, In seconding cl e resolutions which have Just been read. Ft * s. I believe, been the uniform custom ot this tl r to present to each judge, at the? close of his ~ st court, resolution? expressing Its respect p the Judge, and it3 appreciation of the man- ai T In "which he has discharged the duties of bi 3 office. The custom was not observed In ei gard to Judge Carpentei. He was astran r to us. He was elevated to judicial position a the era of new men, new laws and new gov- h nmenP, and with characteristic conservatism k e bar reserved its opinion until time and ex- 0, rlence should confirm or dispel its doubts. Under the Judicial career thus commenced ai e bar has for nearly two years pursued Its w customed labors, and during that period the 9t ost perfect harmony has existed between '? e bench and the bar. The Judge has to-day nounced to us his retirement, and we are sembled to express to him, lu on appropriate p anner, therespect which his discharge of bis T ities has inspired. e( Of the dignity and importance of the judi- tc il officer, no word need oe said here. But we c? i not, all of us, perhaps, so fully appreciate ir duties and responsibilities in relation to lt. al ie Judicial position is isolated. The judge it flers from aU other public officers. They tl ay look to public opinion for guidance and ? ly upon popular sympathy for support. ?' ie Judge cannot. It ls often his high- ti t duty not only to ignore pubUc opinion, ai it to maintain the supremacy of the law, in u, rect opposition to the sentiment of the hour. ?? Imlnlsterlng the law In Its integrity, he must n ie superior to all d estre of popular favor, and ti [ apprehension of popular censure. Nor can tc . vindicate himself, lhe consciousness of f; rht Is unquestionably the strongest support the judicial magistrate, but next to this, "J id Inferior only to it, ls the support of an mest, able, fearless bar. Without lt, a judg? ' shorn of much of his usefulness; with ..he ly rest confident that sooner or later public a Inion wiU endorse the Judgment of the bax, r The profession maj be divided upon thc de ! cisi?n of a particular case, but never upon the [general administration of the law by a judge. ! Nor should we forger, fha: ene qualifications and labors of a judge eau only be fully known to those who are in daily observation of them. The community is engrossed in active pursuits and the weightiest causes, involving the great? est iabor, attract but little ot- public attention. They are known only to the bar, and to it alone can the court lock for a critical, a Just appreci? ation. It ls, therefore, I think, due to ourselves as well as to the judge who has just retired, to place upon the record the expression of our high appreciation of the manner in which he has discharged the duties of his office. I con? cede fully in the sentiment of the resolutions. I have had, in common with my brethren, many opportunities of witnessing the ability, the promptness and the courtesy wich which the business ci the court was disposed of; and as a member of this bar. I acknowledge my ob? ligation to the judge who, under trying cir? cumstances, has sc abiv and acceptably ad? ministered the law. REMARK? OF COLONEL CHARLES INGLESBY. Afr. Chairman- The senior members of the bar, who, by years and experience, are best qualified to correctly estimate the distinguish? ed judicial ability with which Judge Carpenter has discharged the arduous duties, both of a common law judge and a chancellor in equity, having expressed their opinions, it would be improper and indelicate for one of their juniors to attempt to add one word on that subject. I think, however, that, without trespassing on propriety, as one of its younger members, I may be permitted to testify to the uniform courtesy, consideration and kindnees with which Judge Carpenter has Invariably treated the Bar ot Charleston. For, sir, lt is undoubtedly true that the younger lawyers tax the patience and forbearance of th? bench to a far greater extent than do their seniors; and if, as it has beeu said, the bench learns its law from the bar, it is still unquestionably true that the want of experience and legal knowledge of the younger members of the bar gives to the bench many trying lessons of patience and for? bearance. It is no difficult or unpleasant task Tor a Judge to pass upon great and deep legal attestions, submitted with the learning and ability of age and experience, and to listen with deference and respect to tho wisdom and learning of those who. by long years of unre? mitting toil and Btudy.'aave Justly attained eminence In our profession; but the learned udge has ample field for the exercise of gene- ? rous consideration, when correcting the errors ind dealing gentlv with the imperfections of 1 ;he younger members of the bar. It therefore teems not inappropriate that One of that num )er should place on record their high appreci? ation and grateful sense of obligation to Judge Carpenter for the courteous consideration rhich he has always accorded to them. \ The question then being taken on the adop- t Jon of the resolutions, it was decided in the .fflrmative unanimously. On motion of Col. B. H. Rutledge, lt was t in?iimously resolved that the proceedings of j he meeting be published In THE CHARLESTON V ?BW8 and Charleston Courier. t j " REMARKS OF EX-CHIEF JUSTICE H?NEIN. Jj ' Gentlemen of the Bar of Charleston-I am jj rory much honored by having been selected as , he organ of communication with Judge Car- L ienter.

Subsequently, Chancellor D 'ukin forwarded e copy of the above resolutions to Judge Car- e enter, accompanied by the following graceful l' r.te: ' CHARLESTON, July 1, 1870. FOTI. Ii. B.

DONKIN. .HS GREAT EdLIR IN NOVEMBER, fl Our readers will recollect that we announced >me months ago the determination of the outh Carolina Institute to hold a grand Fair i this city, in November next, thus reviving ie annual custom which they had established ir a number of years bet?re the war. Since ie announcement alluded to, the directors ave been busy arranging the preliminaries of j ie campaign, which they are now about to pen in earnest, with a view to making this rst of a new series of Fairs, not only equal ) any of those of the good olden time, but ir superior to. them in every respect, and, in wt, only to be surpassed by the gread World airs which have been held in London, Paris nd New York. THE LOCATION. Tiie place decided upon for holding the Fair i the celebrated Washington Race Course, nown not only over the whole United States, at to the entire sporting world for the many imoua races that have been run upon its nek. Many weighty reasons have influenced ie board in this choice, of which lt is only ecessary to mention a few, viz: The ample >ace afforded by the grounds for trials of all Inds of improved agricultural implements; icilitles of erecting large buildings capable of staining all such articles for exhibition as squire shelter; the advantages of a fine track >r horse races and s tournaments; conveni ace of access to the city by means of the City allway, which can easily be extended to the rounds. Many other reasons might be men oned, but these are quite sufficient fully to Lstify the decision ol the board. THE FIRST MOVE IN THE CAMPAIGN. The first move which the board have deter iined to make shows a wisdom equal to that | rlnced by their choice of a location. They fl ive resolved to publish, as early as possible, tl n thousand copies of a very handsome book ti r one hundred and flity pages, containing, asides their premium list, which is a very lib? ral one, a description of Charleston, with an count of what she has accomplished since ie war; the whole beautifully illustrated with .egan: engravings of the public buildings, lurches; squares, a ml prominent places of busi ess. This book will be scattered far and wide j j trough tile country, tims not only calling gj Illing attention to the Fair, and awakening i interest In it in the minds of the people, it correcting the impression industriously i= icouraged by her enemies, that Charleston is y, stand-still plaoe. Any observant man who tl is watched Charleston for the last five years c nows that she hasticcompllshed wonders, not p xly in recuperation, but in actual progress, id this fact will be made patent to all the orkl when they read the South Carolina In- I o itute book. I B HOW THE FAIR WILL HELP CHARLESTON. U If the Fair accomplished nothing more for ^ h?rtesten than the publication of a large 1 iitlonofa book setting forth her Just claims > be called an enterprising and progressive ty, it would be of much service. But it must id will do a great deal more than this. That will crowd the hotels, the street cars and ie shops during Fair week will occur to every oe, but that is a very short-sighted view of J1 ie results. It will make thousands of people | ci ;qualnted with Charleston, who now look . pon her as one of the cities of the past; it will | r( ira people's thoughts to.Charleston, cud ?Ith ?eir thoughts their trade. It will enable t\em ) see that their own advantage demand?- that I P tey should come often here, and deal here ? | " ad thus the advantage will be mutual. now OUR PEOPLE CAN HELP THE FAL.. A Fair, even a small one, can't get itself up, ad a great Fair like the one. to be held in 5o ember, requires strong, earnest, cordial help, f and no small amount or the sinews of war. The South Carolina Institute are exerting all the means andjcapital within their control to make the Fair what lt ought to be, but still in so gigantic an undertaking they require help. They have accordingly devised a scheme which seems to us a very feasible one, whereby our merchants and citizens generally can aid in the good work, without too much inconveni? ence tothem selves. What ellis scheme is, it is not deemed advisable to publish in the papers," but will be explained to our citizens by the agent of the Institute, who will call individu? ally on those who can probably aid the enter? prise. STATE COURT.-The equity side of this court was in session a short time yesterday morn? ing, during which time Judge Carpenter heard and disposed of a number of motions. None of them, however,, was of general Interest, No SERENADE.-Shortly after Congressman. Bowen's arrival yesterday afternoon at the Mills House^ two or three customhouse offi? cials were seen flitting about, and lt was at once surmised that a serenade was to be gotten tip, and the surmise was correct. About half past eleven o'clock lost night about thirty color? ed and a few whlte men assembled In front of the hotel and called loudly for Bowen, but he responded not It is said he was not at the aotel. However, the demonstration last night ihows very plainly that Bowen's chances of securing the vote of the colored people of Charleston, are very slight. Hotel Arrivals-?Taly 1. CHARLESTON HOTEL.

At a meeting of the St. Andrew's Society, ?eld at South Carolina Hall on Thursday eve ilng, 30th June, 1870, the following preamble md resolutions were unanimously adopted: At a ripe old age, honored by the.communi y in which the larger portion of his life was lassed, and revered for his charities and his .irtues, JAMES WELSMAN, Esq., bas been lain o his rest. The late Captain WELSMAN was lorn in Devonshire, England, on the 13th of | lovember, 1784, and died in Charleston, South ?arolina, the home of his adoption, on Sunday, 6th June, 1870. His life affords an instructive ssson. He embarked at Exmouth, the port of | Exeter, and landed in Charleston on the lGth lay, 1803. In worldly goods he was very cor, being possessed only of an English sil? ence. But he was blessed with health, and ras richly endowed with a native integrity rhich was incorruptible by temporal adversl j. He manfully buckled on his armor, and ngaged In the strife of life. How he conduct d that warfare, was testified by the venera lon and respect which accompanied his mer? ni remains to the tomb. His stern Integrity, is faithfulness in the discharge of duties, and ls energy, shortly placed him in a position to arn a competency. A steady adherence in ie right was blessed to bim. and an old age f rest from labor was the reward which he urned. But his reward was not confined to ecuniary competency. His peace was made dth his God; the talents entrusted to alta he ad diligently sought to Improve; he had >ugbt a good fight, he had kept the faith. The leans acquired by his labors had been freely sed in unostentatious charities; lils left hand new not what his right hand gave. Cheer il in temperament, and benevolent in dispo? sion, be lived at peace with his fellow-men. he silver crown of his four-3core years have een lain in the grave, untarnished by ill re ort, and honored for its purity and kindliness. Captain WELSMAN became a member of the t, Andrew's Society, of Charleston,in 1819. For ver one-half century he had been a steadfast ?ntributor to its funds, and before the ad ance of age had prevented, he had been one fHe active members. In its plans for relief ad assistance, he took a lively interest. Him ilf a wanderer from the home of his child - ood. he fully appreciated the benefit which ich a society could confer. He wa3 always iady to contribute ot his means, to enable the >clety to give assistance. And his own hand -as ever ready to grasp lu kindness the hand fthe emigrant to these shores, and to cheer im on his way. Men, such aa he, confer, not erive, honor from the societies to which they elong. Resolved, Thttt by the death of the late AMES WELSMAN. Esq., the St. Andrew's 8o- 1 lety. of Charleston, has lost one of its oldest nd most valued members. Resolved, That In respect to his memory, nd In token of the appreciation of his chante? ur and his worth, a page upon the Minute ook ol the society be inscribed with his name. Resolved, That the respectful sympathies of ie society bc tendered to the family of the eceased in this their bereavement, and that ie president be requested to enclose to the in of the late JAMES WELSMAN.
