ingto risk a civil war to accomplish it, and that
therefore nothing could lie done a' present but

of it, on Mexico, the United States should ill- ;
terfere to prevent it.
In the House the Deficiency Bill was rejected

The Carolinian says:
'"The choice cuuld not have been a more lortunate
one We doubt if Iheieisunv son of Carolina who
cherishes ihe deeds oi that regiment with more piule
than does their warm-hearted leader. We guarantee
thai it will be an addrees in every way worthy of the
occasion. The Ueufrnl has, more ti.an once in his
Congressional career, paid the highest tribute of a
soldier to the valor of the regiment and the noble
bearing of its officers. South Carolina will pay liim
the tribute of a cordial reception and a crowded audi
tory on the occasion."
A Fire
Occurred on Sunday morning last about 1 o'clock,
on the premises of James F. Sutherland, Esq,, on
R mail.at Mia Stnhta with some four or fire hundred
bushels of Com, and fire thousand pounds of Fodder,
ere consumed, together with another Stable adjoining,
on the premises owned by Major John Rosser, and
occupied by Mr. W. A. Graham. Several mules and
a horse were in the Stable, and came near being consumed,
but were fortunately rescued in time. There
can be but little doubt that the tire was the work of
an incendiary.
The entire loss by this fire is estimated at about
fourteen hundred dollars, not a dollar of which is
covered by insurance. Mr. Sutherland requests us to
return his thanks to bisfricndsand the public fortheir
genoruus sympathy and efforts in bis behalf at the
above fire.
An Explanation
From Mr. James II. Taylor, of Charleston, and
from Mr. William Gregg, of Kdgcfield. is found in the
Charleston Aetttsof recent date, in which both of these
genllemeu deny, in emphatic terms, being Mr. Hamlin's
authority for the statement that, there were in
Stuutlj Cornljjn, "ifl- hupdr."d fW-t <>?
sand unproductive white men, whose grade of civi
lization was only one step in advance of the Iudian
savages." W6 are glad to see that this foul slaader
upon our Slate has been so promptly and satisfactorily
met and rebuked. There are a sett of pigmy politicians
of the Iiamlin calibre, who would not hesitate to
perpetrate any sort of outrage upon tho South and
her institutions; and. in the instance alluded to, we
have evidi nee of what their unblushing impudence
dares to attempt. We give this explanation prominence
in our , aper, inasmuch as a short paragraph
from the Charleston News, calling upon Messrs. Taj
lor and Gregg to answer to the charge of making the
above statement, appeared in our paper last week.?

Another Sunday School Address.
We enjoyed another pleasant afternoon on Sunday
last, in the exercises of the Methodist Sabbath School.
According to previous arrangement, Win. M. Shannon,
Ksq.. entertained the School with the third address.
We have never listened to & more appropriate
address of its kind. Without apparent effort of the
speaker, he engaged attention by his earnest, apposite,
and eloquent remarks?showing at once the practical
interest which he felt in the institution, as au important
and indispensable adjunct to the proper training
and moral education of the young. Ilia illustrations
were hannr. Dointed. and successful. The exercises
were varied in good taste, by the recitation of asuita
t>le dialogue between Masters George McKagen and
George G. Alexander, which was very cleverly performed.
The Little Singing Class gave us some good
music, and, as usual, little Edwin 0. delighted tiio
audienca A beautiful short poeiu was feelingly repanted
by Miss Sophie Z,a member of the Bible
Class It was a beautiful little poem, made addition
nlly attractive by the modesty and gracefulness with
which it wns rehearsed. Wo have no doubt ihose
present (and there was a goodly number) enjoyed the
occasion quite as much as we dijj. The next address
will be given in about four or fire weeks.
Hon. Edward Everett Coming to Columbia.
We are highly gratified in seeing it stated that Mr.
Everett is to visit Columbia this week, where his oration
on Washington will be repeated. This will afford
an opportunity fo many ofthe up-country people
to hear the greatest living orator of America,
lie has electrified Savannah and Augusta, and to
night the '"Queen City" enjoys the treat.
The Savannah Republican, of Thursday^ says /
"The Massachusetts orator delivered his address on
Washington, last night, to as many as our spacious
Athenaeum could hold. What shall we say of it ?
The pen falters iu an attempt to describe such a production.
It uppeared to us all that mortal intellect
ana tnoriai patriotism count iiiskv h?mueecnoaoiy
(rrent and transcondontly eloquent. Nay, if possible,
it was worthy of Washington. We can say no inoro "
"Can Massachusetts beinl us nnotiier such specimen
of her humanity ? Kvereti alone covers a multitude
ol her fuults."
Why should wo not have a visit to Camden, ond
speech from Mr. Kvcrett ?
There are many in our town and adjoining country,
wiio would gladly avail themselves of an opportunity
to hear iho distinguished orator of the Bunker-Hill
State. Camdoti is rich in her history of Revolutionary
incident*and those might afford some gratification
rostich a patriotic statesman as Mr. Kverett, who
feels proud of the-pari history of his whole country.
Kverett, stand* now, almost alone in his glory, as ?

We welcome with a ready hand and earnest grasp,
our former colemporary and friend, onebf the veteran
editors of the Suue?W. B. Johnston, l??q.. who appears
as co-editor with Mr. Britton, in th^l management
of the Daily Southern Guardian, at Columbia S. C.?
We have to often expressed our opiniotl^in regard to
Mr. Johnston's editorial capacity, that it seems almost
a vain repetition that we should say morion the present
occnsion ; but. we will not allow iteopportunity
to pass without some additional expression of pleasure
in welcoming him again to our ranks Mr. Johnston
is one of the best ready writers thatjwe know of.
and stands confessedly among his compejiys in South Carolina,
in the very first linesssq accomplished and
able journalist. We wish him and the maw-enterprise
a full measure of auocera. >
Franku.v Gaillabd. Esq., is regularly announced
as the editorial chief of that most excellent journal,
the South Carolinian. With "a wise head on jrouug
snouiuera, ne unites iu an eminent degree inose essential
qualifications which admirably fit him for a pssi
tion so marked and responsible. We are^ure that he
will more than sustain his well eartfej reputation.?

The history of this remarkable medicine, and its
astonishing' success in obstinate cases of DYSPEPSIA,
ASTHMA, AND GENERAL
DEBILITY, OF THE SYSTEM, places
it among the most wonderful discoveries in medical
science, and has given it a reputation far beyond
any remedy known for these complaints, in
til their various forms.
The OXYGENATED BITTERS contain
nothing which can intoxicate ; and the medicine
has no similarity whatever to the various alrohclic
mixtures disguised as "Bitters," being
purely a mndieiral compound, in which are
:ombined the most valuable remedial agents, and
i peculiar oxygenated property, hitherto unknown,
but highly efficacious in all complaints
arising from weakness and derangement, or
prostration of the stomach and system generak

ill disagreeable symptoms, and assisting* nature

Maryland State Lotteries.
R TRANCE & CO . ManagersCAUTION
NOTICU.
Persons living at a distance should be extremely
cautious of whom they order Lottery
Tickets or Certificates ofPackngps of Tickets.
The country is flooded with bogus and swindling
Lotteries. Every inducement is held out to get
persons to invest money in them. Capital Prizes
of from |20.000 to Forty thousand head their
3chemes-with tickets atOne Dollar. One hundred
thousand dollar Capital Prizes are offered, tickstii
Five Dollars. All such, in every instance, are
frauds, and if money is sent to them for tickets,
it i6so much thrown away without the shadow of
a chance of getting a prize. Beware of all Lot.
leries where the Capital Prize is unusually large
iii comparison to the price ot tickets. In every
instance where large prizes are offered for a small
cost of tickets, put it down as a certain fraud.
The Kentucky State Lof'ery for the benefit of
the Shelby College, under our management, is
the only Lottery in the United States which
is legally decided by the Maryland Drawings; all
other Lotteries which purport to be decided by the
Maryland Drawings, are frauds.
THE MARYLAND STATE LOTTERIES.
Purchase in the Maryland State lotteries, then
you are sure of being right. And in ordering in
the Maryland lotteries, you are sure of fair and
honest drawings.
One thing look to, and that is, if you order from
?ny licensed vender in Baltimore, do not receive
iny but Manager's Tickets and Manager's Printed
Ceriificates of Packages. The Manag"r?'
Certificates have the numbers printed, and have
lie lithographed signature of R. France &. Co.
No one has a right to send his individual cerifiCates,
and if he does it, be sure there is a fraud

l^l7jHEREAS. the last General Assembly of South . jg
T T Carolina, with a wise P?recast and a.liberal retard
fr.r the public welfare, based as it is bo essentially
in the good sense a nd virt ue of her citizens, enacted
aw by which the Commissioners of Free Sfchools aro
ititboiieed to establish a Normal School in tbe city of
harleston, to which the country di?tric(s frill be en* >"
itlcd to send a certain number of pupils. ^ , "" M. >
And whereas, the enterprising Board of j3t. Philip's " . f
ind St. Michael's hare now In operation, at tliwr'ex: ,y
ellent public school in tbe dty, weekly eiefcisee,
rhich will serve to exemplify tbe benefits of aucb'sn
atablishment. .
Now, therefore, I recommend to the several Boards
if Commissioners of Free Schools in the Swte^io ?p>oint?
at their next quarterly meeting, on the fourth
ionday in April and depute one or more of their > "
tUTLiber to visit ilie said public school (St. Philip'* .

Also, I do hereby invite all the Teachers of Free
School-scholars throughout the State to come aodyee,, . 'jfe
jt themselves how the said PublicSchool is condrnft*
d, and what are the uses of a Normal School.
As the expenses of such a visit might put it out oT }
he power of many to come, however much they may . 5lesire
it, I will venture to say for the good citizens of X
Charleston, that the houses of many residents will be iJ
pened to any Teacher who abaft be provided with * &
etter of introduction, or with the certificate*.of the y<
'resident and Secretary of the Board of L'rwnmlss|onrs
at home. Failing in this, or in case a pnblic boose ? '
i preferred, it affords me pleasure to announce that
Irs. Kennedy, of the American Hotel, in King-street,
rill, on account of this Department, lake care of any '
'eacher of a Free School who will deposit with her,
ia or her certificates from the President and-Seere* '
ary of tlve District Board of Commissfoners.for which
e or she may be employed, from the first of June to
he fifth inclusive.
Furthermore. I appeal to the proper authorities of
ho railroads and oilier public conveyances, by means
f which they must reach the city, to instruct, their
ereral agents, upon the exhibition to them of life said
ertidcatea, to pass all such Teachers of J-ree Schools,
nd one Commissioner from each Board, going dAwn
>r the purpose liereiu eel forth, for one fare, guiug '
nd returning. ' -??
I am assured that the Commissioner* of Free'School*
