Northern and Western farmers are invited to come to South Carolina. Liberal induce-monte are "offered, and a generous policy will bo pursued to all. BionuoNTv May 4.-To-cUj: the churobea were filled and the city Lad a Sabbath appearance. In tbe Circuit Court, the Chief Jus? tice) united at tbe meeting. In response to resolutions regarding the late calamity, be said: "Human emotions are but poorly expressed by words. When the first vogue rumors of the terrible event in this city, which hos been sp fatally named the great calamity, went through the land a few days ago, all hearts felt a shook like that of a sudden or awful personal bereavement. Then as the tidings move distinctly over the wires, and the fearful disaster took space and form iu the minds of the people, it seemed for some time to press all hearts like a night-mare, tbe pulses of life throbbed heavily and human utterance failed under tho crushing sense of sorrow which pervaded tho laud. Soon the currents of feeling began to flow and now for many daya heart-felt expressions of condolence nud substan? tial indications of sympathy have been flowing townrds Richmond like a great tide, and no right-minded and true hearted man can help feeling this vast development of unaffected good-will so strikingly devoid of everything like sec? tional or party feeling, as one of these gleams of radiance which in God's good Providence so often brightens the dark? est cloud of human grief. When, two days since, we took our seats upon this bench, our eyes and hearts alike missed familiar faces from tho bar. Let us thank God that those whose voices were oftenest heard here, yot Hurvive. May the great Physician comfort their sor? rowing households and give them speedy and complete restoration. But there were other members of the bar who will neveragniu join iu honorable contention. One bas gone in the ripened fullness of honor; another with the distinctions of bis profession clustering thickly upon him, having already wou those heights of publie estimation from which the ascent to the highest seemed easy and sure. Another, younger, yet mature, trying with firm steps the upward path of usefulness and honor. How terribly does such a calamity ns this rebuke our vain expectations; how impressively does it admonish every oue of us to look bo yond tho shadows of time to thu realities of eternity. It is said that among those dying, crushed under that mass of ruins, there were some who could yet exchange a few faint words with their companions in that fearful place; none of which have beeu related by tho rescued, have im? pressed mo so much as that one mangled and broken sufferer, who still found strength to exclaim, "Oh! grave, where is thy victory? Oh! death, wboro is thy sting?" What a triumph was that. What a testimony to tho incomparable worth of Christian faith. This is a day of humiliation nud prayer. The churches will bo filled with worshippers. Let us carry unto them not merely tho burden of sorrow, but also tho consolations of faith, over re? membering that all is of God. If He but waves His hands, tho rains collect, and the winds blow shrill and loud, till, with a smile of light on sea and laud, lo! he looks back from tho depart? ing cloud. His will be done. Intelligence was received from Mayor Fox, of Philadelphia, that additional funds had been raised there for the Buf? ferers. FINANCIAL. AN I> COMHBHCI AL. NEW YORK, May 4.-Noon.-Stocks heavy.
