COLUMBIA. Friday Horning, November 15,1867. Tb? ?Civil nights" Bill. An opinion was delivered in tho Supremo Court of Pennsylvania, on Tuesday of last week, in a coso in? volving the right of railroads or car? riers to kocp separate white and black passengers, in which it was declared that, prior to the Act of that State, passed in March last, there was that natural, legal and customary differ? ence between the races in Pennsyl? vania, which made their Separation ?a passengers in a public conveyance, * subject of sound regulation to aecaro order, promoto comfort, pre? serve tho peace, and maintain the rights of both carriers and passen . gors. The case in which the ques ctibn, originated, was that of a colored '?ornan suing for damages for in? juries alleged to have been sustained thy '"being compelled to occupy a dif? ferent scat in a railroad car than the ono abe had selected. Judge Agnew, in announcing his -'decision, considered tho rights of tho company as a common carrier, tho preference of tho public, and tho laws and customs of the State, sum? ming up as follows: "It is clear, therefore, that under tho Constitution and laws, .the white and black raees stand in a separate relation to each other, Wo find the same difi'eronco in the institutions and customs of the State. Never has there been an intermixture of the two races, socially, religiously, civilly or politically. By uninterrupted usage, the blacks live apart, visit and entertain among themselves, occupy ^separate places of public worship and amusement, and fill no civil or politi? sai stations, not oven sitting to de? cide their own causes. In fact, there is not an institution of the State in which they have mingled indiscrimi? nately with tho whites. Even tho common school law provides . for separate schools, wben their numbers aro adequate. In the military ser Tice, also, they were not intermixed with white soldiers, but were sepa? rated into companies and regiments ?of color, and that not by way of dis? paragement, but from motives of -wisdom and prudence, to avoid the ^antagonisms of variant and un mix? able races. Law and custom having sanctioned a separation of races, it is ??nob the province of the judioiary to legislate it away. Wo cannot say t?tere waa uu difference in fact, when the law and the voice of the people had said there was. The laws of the State are found in its Constitution, statutes, institutions and general cus? toms. It is to these sources judges must resort to discover them. If ? they abandon these guides, they pro? nounce their owu opinions, not the laws of those whoso officers they are. Following these guides, wo are com? pelled to declare that at the time of the alleged injury, there was that natur.d, legal and customary differ? ence between tho white and black races in this State, which made their separation as passengers in a public conveyance the subject of sound regulation, to secure order, promote . comfort, preservo tho peace, and maintain tho rights both of carriers and passengers. Tho defendants were, therefore, entitled to an affirm? ative answer to tho point recited at the beginning of this opinion." We publish tho above decision for tho sound truths it contains, and .commend them to the consideration .of ?ll our people, white and black. It is very strange, that but very few of the difficulties, arising under the civil rights bill, have occurred in the unreconstructed States. Tho colored population here bave behaved with exemplary quiet and moderation, and "Wc believe this can be said of tho freed peoplo of tho South. If a war of races should over unhappily occur, it will be the fault of Northern agita? tors. But before such a thing com? mences, it would be well for thc Northern people, upon whoso shoul? ders tho chief burden of supporting the immense military forces which will, iu such an event, be required, to consider whether or not tho policy Viii ptijf, (iud whether or not there is *ome peaceablo modo of averting the danger. Wo think thero is. VAKMINT? Aiiot1 ND. -As predicted, s? soon as the Southern States were territorialized, varmints aro begin? ning to make their appearance. The Anderson Intelligencer states that a largo fomalo catamount was killed aeav that town, by a citizen, a few 'lays ago. Another escaped-sup? posed to bo the male. ? * ? ? Captain David Hinkley, of Livor moro, Maine, dieu ou Friday last, aged 102 years. Ho voted for Wash? ington for President, and remember? ed Gen. Arnold's expedition up the bLenucbcc llivor. COTTON AND CERKAI?.-"Wo bave several times urged upon our planting friends that they should devote their land, labor and time to the raising of cereals. Plant wheat now and plant largely and thoroughly, and yon can snap your finders at your enemies. Cotton is played out. It won't pay to produce colton and sell it for no? thing. Wheat, corn and stock rais? ing will pay, and wo trust our plant ors and farmers will turn their attention to that trne lino of policy which can alono make our section self-sustaining, independent and I nrn^xmno Tl.n relntlVC ??rc?ts O? x-xr-- *?. - r cotton and cor?ala aro well ?et forth in the following from thc Little Kock (Ark.) Gazelle: "This year's experience will bo sufficient to convince the firmest friend of cotton quitare that it must be abandoned at once or our planting community -will bo bankrupt. We understand that planters in this vici? nity aro paying ono dollar a hundred for picking cotton. This is equiva? lent to three and a half cents a pound for lint cotton, and to this add the tax, and one-half tho value of a pound of cotton in this mnrket is consumed. "Now is the time for sowing wheat, and wo trust a large crop will be put in this year. Planters aro nuder no obligation to ruin themselves by planting cotton merely to furnish employment to lazy, capricious negroes. Wheat is worth tfiJ.?U per bushel in the Western markets. At this price its production would bu profitable on any soil in the State. If a good crop is put iu hereabouts the coming year, mills will be erected to convert it into Hour here at home, and a ready market will bo found for all that can bo grown. The New Orleans market expects to obtain n large supply of its corn from Arkan? sas this year, as the crop of tho West is pery short. It will command a good price and provo a far more re? munerative crop than cotton." TUE COTTON TAX.-It is asserted that letters bavo been received by a prominent gentleman in Macon, Ga., from Senator Wilson, of Massachu? setts, and also from Mr. Colfax, thc Speaker of the House of Representa fives, announcing themselves in favoi of a prompt, repeal of tho tax of twt and a half couts per pound on cotton, and making the repealiug law retro acting in its operation, so it will gc back to tho 1st of last September*. ATROCIOUS MURDER.-Tho Auder son Intelligencer notices thc murder o a former resident of that . District Mr. Edward N. Emerson, by a des perato mau, named Botts, formerly ? Colonel in the 14th Alabama liegi ment. The affair occurred in Albany Ga., on Sunday morning last. Tin deceased leaves many friends. THE CONVENTION ADDRESS.-Tin Augusta Chronicle and Sentinel pub lishes, in lieu of editorial, the addres of the Conservative Convention, re cently held in this city. It says: In our ?pinion, it is one of tb ablest, most eloquent, patriotic, pm withal practical papers ever issued b; any political body. It presents t tho world not only tho conditiou o South Carolina, but of all the. South ern States, and is so applicable t Georgia, that wo hasten to lay it bi fore our readers. The manly tone i which it protests against the wrong heaped on the suffering South, mus commend it to all wbo really desil' the preservation of liberty and th perpetuation of good Government. -< ? MAKING A PAPER POPULAR.-Th New York Tribune says: "Gen. Ord has been increasing th circulation of tho Vicksburg Ti nu; and giving that journal some valuabl advertising, by causing tho arrest c its editor, for some cause not y< made public. If thc facts tn tl: matter bave been correctly reporte* Cien. Ord has made a grave mistuki We don't believe that tho most vi? lout lauguago of the most violent* rebel editors would make it oitln proper or politic in a Union goner to lock him up. Theso men ai nover dangerous until they becon popular martyrs." MEXICO.-Thero nro indications i another revolution in Mexico, tl object of which is to overture tho Juarez Government. It is sa that many of tho Mexicans wi took part against Maximilian whi ho was alive now deeply regret b into, and speak of him almost as he were a saint.

TUE METEORIC SHOWER.-Owing to a slight mistake of dates, numbers of our citizens missed seeing tho grand meteoric shower, yesterday morning.

It is said to have resembled a snow-storm during a strong wind, or a magnificent display of firo-works. A great many stories aro told of tho excitement among nu assemblage of tho sous of Uara, who happened to be "up and about." One old woman concluded that there would bo no moro star-light nights as every oue of them had fallen. A fireman on the Greenville train, was so overcome by tho unnatural display, that he was with difficulty retained in the cab.

Just previous to the destruction of Columbia, tho families of Generals Preston and Hampton removed to Yorkvillo, in this State. A largo amount of silver and jewels belong? ing to tho families was buried there; but ono casket of jewelry, together with several articles of silver, were retained by ono of the ladies. "When it was announced that a raiding party of F?d?rai soldiers was approaching the towu, these articles were giveu in charge of an oki resident, who buried thom. After tho excitement woro off, and things became more settled, the custodian of tho secreted valu? ables went to tho spot, but found that they had been spirited away. Of course, tho articles wore given up as lost. A few days ago, however. Gen. Hampton received a telegram from tho Mayor of Knoxville, Tenn., stating that a man named McLain had been arrested in that city, for attempting to disposo of, ut a very | low rate, several pieces of valuable jewelry, marked "Hampton" and "Preston"-among tho lot, two watches, ono marked "Mary Hamp? ton," and tho other "Wm. C. Pres? ton." 1'urthormore, that the indivi? dual arrested, confessed that he had stolen these articles in Yorkvillo; and he also stated, that he had buried a quantity of silver in a hog-pen, near thero (tho location being described.) The despatch closed by stating, it was thought that a confederate of MoLain's had loft that city tho samo morning, to tako possession of tho buried silver. A member of tho Hampton family immediately took the train for Yorkvillo, and ou his arrival, repaired to tho spot describ? ed, and had tho satisfaction of re? covering a'I tho silver. McLain claims to havo belonged to tho 17th South Carolina Regimeut.
