"The Southerner." .
Tl>c abovo is the title of a new paper to be issued at
Darlington. C. II., on tl e first week iti January next, j
by J. M. Brown.

This of itself is sufficient guaranty of the spirit and
character of this new candidate for popular favor. We
wish all concerned in the enterprise an abundant success,
and v*ll take occasion to lay the Prospectus of
the Soutiunier before our readers at an early day.
Hillaboro,' N. C., Military Academy.
We should have mentioned in our last something
concerning this interesting and important institution,
advertised in our paper to-day. Col. Tew, the late
Supcriutcndant of tho State Institution at Columbia is
the Principal, and of him, we need not speak to those
who enjoy his acquaintance. The editor of tho Register
at Winnsboro, says that "Col. Tew has attained a very
high reputation as an efficient and firm disciplinarian,
as well as a rijie scholar." Tho editor is a graduate of
the State Academy, and his testimony is entirely worthy
* of confidence, as one who speaks understandingly.
The Races.
Our first annu.il mcee over the Hawthoru Course,
under tho control of the Camden Jockey Club, will
commence on tho 14th December. From the number
of Irorses present and expected, we have every reason
onnfidpntlv to anticinate fine sport and a successful
meeting. The Course is completed, and a beautiful one it
is; the soil is light and safe, and we thiuk will be fast.
The Track is nicely fenced upon both sides, with neat
Judges' stands, and a ladies' stand 60 feet long. Five
large, comfortable stables, conveniently located, containing
26 stalls.
There are now on the ground in active training, twostables,
viz: Mr. 0. P. Hare's striug, with Tar River,
Oystcnnan, and Two Bits; Maj. Joh.v Cantey, with
John Linton, Altine, a Glencoe, ar.d a stale Filly ; and
daily expected, Col Joux B. Moore's two promising
Red Eye Fillies; Mr. R. G. Spans with one or two;
Mr. Thos. Pcbtrab with two or three, including
Congaree ; and we also expect from abroad Mr. Belcher,
Messrs. Foxdex, Williams A Co, aud Mr. Busn.
We regret to hear the invincible Planet, and the others
of the Messrs. Doswell's stable, wil^uot be here.?
We would be much pleased to welcome the Western
stables : there will be pleuty of time for them to reach:
here after the Columbus races, which we behove are
in progress thus week. *
We Mast Prepare.
Several years ago we had District meetings, and
Vigilance Committees were appointed in the different
sections of our District: but these, like every thing
else of the kind with us, soon had their run and died
cut for want of vitality and interest, and now we have
sot the first effective onjanizatwn, either military or
athenrise. in the whole District: and. in case of an
emergency; wliere would our people go, and what
would they do ? Are we slumbering over the volcano
which is ready to heave out its lava of red hot wrath
upon us? Or, are we perfectly secure? If secure,
then of course there is no need of preparation; those
who counsel it ore visionary alarmists, aud wise ones
(?) may write tts down as fools.
But. we arc in danger, and what we mean by our
not having an effective organization is this,?that, in
case of alarm, where a strict and efficient ]>olicc would
be necessary, there is not the first rallying point specially
designated, even among the Military Companies,
or those whose particular duty it would be to see that
life and property wero protected.
We think, by all means, eveiy Military Company, at
least those which rendezvous at Camden, ought to be
proi>erly organized for action. Even the "Light Infantry,"
or "Rifle Guards," which are presumed to be
composed of minute men, arc in no condition at present,
in case their services were unexpectedly required.?
These CoinDamcs. although commanded, each, by coin
potent officers, would l>e in a sad dilemma if they were
called suddenly into active service, with arms, accoutrements,
Ac., scattered all over the country.
How many guns of the Camden Heat Company
could be tired ?
Where, and in what condition is our Ordnance? A
few stalwart blows would level our Magazine to the
ground. The Rifles of iho "Infantry" nnd "Guards,"
with the swords of the Cavalry, are piled hotch-potch
behind the doors and in the corners of our stores, which,
in case of confusion nnd alarm, had better be in the
bottom of tire ocean than remain where they are.
Wo have grown too careless, and the Military spirit
and organization of our State has too long been allowed
to droop and die out, giving just cause to its opponents
for classing it among the veriest humbugs of the
day. It need not be a humbug. If it is ever made
one, the fault lies with those who have not the intelligence
to comprehend the first rudiment in the school
of the soldier..
It is a capital system if properly carried out, by
competent men, who will do their duty. We trust that
a brighter day is dawning, when competency will be the
test and Military knowledge and merit the standard.
We ought to have a thorough and efficient re-organization,
aud no man should be allowed to wear epaulette
or sword who has not the intelligence, pride, and
courage to make a good officer.
We suggest that a meeting of the Military officers
of the Battalion or Regiment bo held, and let there be
some definite understanding as to what course should
be pursued under certain circumstances.
We are not disposed to find fiult unnecessarily; our
remarks aro intended to bo general, and we think the
propriety and justice of these suggestions will strike
every candid mind.
We want now, and must have organization?some,i..n.,:tn

Deaths and Accidents.
Serious Accident.? The Chester Standard
says: We have been informed that the roof of the
kitchen of Mr. Dennis Dallas, an aged and infirm man
of this District, was discovered to be on fire, a few
tiiirlits niro. when Mr. D. clambered unon it. and in his
endeavors to pull ofl'tlio burning boards, was so badly
burned about tlie faco and jverson nj to be laid up in
bed and perhaps incapacitated for life from attending
to his usual and ordinary avocation.
Sudden Death.?The Chester Standard also
says: On last Sunday night, Dr. Bronson, of Sumter,
died at tho Hotel of Col. Win. Walker, in this place.?
Ho had not been in town many days before his death,
which seems to have been occasioned by drinking.?
Here is another evidence, if another were wanted, of
the direful effects of indulging tho appetite for strong
drink. When will the people learn wisdom and put it
in practice ?
Fatal Shooting.?A Mr. McRabb, formerly1
of Columbia, S. C.*and more recently from Columbus,
Ga., was shot last evening, about 7 o'clock, at tho
corner of Periy and Market-street, by some unknown
person, who immediately fled. Mcll. was shot just
above the left nipple, and died instantly. The person

Montgomery Mail, Xov. 18.
Dvalli of a Centenarian.?Phillis, a servant
of M.*P. Crawford, of our District, lo whom refercuco
was made in a recent communication through
our paper, in regard to the birth-place of Andrew Jackson,
died at his plantation on the 17 th inst. She was
probably the oldest person in our District, and up to
the time of her death was able to take care of herself.
At the time of her death she had the entire care of the
children of the plantation. She always enjoyed uninterrupted
good health, never having needed the attention
of a physician but once.
Lancaster Ledger, 23d
of E. G. Easdiiaii.-Thc Chattanooga
(Tenn.) Advertiser says: As wo are going to
press we have been shown a dispatch to a gentleman
in this city, stating that Maj. E. G. Eastman died of
apoplexy in Nashville on Wednesday. "While the heart
of every reader oftho Union and American was grieving
for the death of Mr. Poindextcr, the further intelligence
reached them of the death of Maj. Eastman.?
Maj. E. has been connected with the press of Tennessee
for many years, llis facility as a writer and his
character as a gen deman, arc well known to the people
of the State. Peace to his ashes.
Murderers Hanped.?The murderers of Mr.
Page, whoso untimely death was rcjxjrted in our last,
have been identified in the persons of two brothers
whom lie had often befriended. They were forthwith
taken to the spot where the murder was committed,
and hanged until dead, by the aggrieved relatives and
friends of the deceased.
It will be remembered that Mr. P., while riding in a
buggy with another gentleman, in Conecuh County,
Ala., was waylaid and shot dead b}* (at the time) some
unknown person, the hat of the assassin being the
only thing seen.
Steamship Wrecked.?Sackville, Nov.
23.?The steamship Iudian struck on a sea ledge of
rocks on Monday. She had thirty-eight passengers,
one hundred incn in her crew, eight hundred tons of
cargo and sotne specie. Half an hour after striking
she parted midships. The passengers and crow took
to the boats, one of which was capsized, drowning
several persons; another was stove alongside the
steamer; two others, with the passengers and seamen,
drifted tosca, and have not been heard from since. The
schooner Alexander arrived at Halifax yesterday, with
twenty-four of the rescued persons. The number lost
is unknown. The schooner Lutea, which went to the
assistance of the Indian, was wrecked on the breaker*.
Her crew* were saved.
THE PEN AND SCISSORS.
The Montgomery Mail says: The sentiment is universal,
that the first of January, 18G2, must find no
single free negro w itliin tho limits of Alabama.
A despatch from Washington, dated November 25th,
says: Dr. Daniel Breed, Patent Agent, to-day gave
52,000 security to keep tho peace, for uttering incendiary
sentiments.
The Whceling(Va.) fnklligencer, says: ''John Brown,
Jr., son of "Ossawattomio" Brown, came up the rivet
to Parkersburg. on Saturday, with the ultimate intention
of visiting his father at Charlestown.
U. ?. Marshal Johnson, of Ohio, says that the report
of his liaving sent a message to Governor Wise,
informing him of the organization of an army in thai
State for the rescue of Brown, is without foundation.
The Texas Legislature, now in session, is engrossed
with the election ol tinted States Senator. Hon
Louis T. Wigfall is said t-> be the leading Democratic
candidate.

Tho Chicago Journal of the 18th inst.. says: La si
night the underground railroad arrived here with thirty
passengers, live from the vicinity of llieliinond, Va.,
twelve from Kentucky and thirteen from Missouri.?
They are now* all safe in Canada. The thirteen from
Missouri were sold to go down the river the very day
they started.
A New York paper says: John A. Washington, the
lni? nu'imr of Mount Ynrnoon has hurst un and iront
to smash: speculation is the cause of it, whether farr
or stock, can't say. The holies, who have paid Iniu
ono hundred and seventy-live thousand dollars, art

The Legislature of Texas authorized the Governor
of the State to call out all troops necessary for the pro,
tection of the frontier. The Governor has appointed
Capt. Ford commander of the troops. Capt. Ford
started for the Rio Grande on the 18th inst.
In Charlottesville, (Ya.,) a man from the North,
named Rood, has been arrested on suspicion, and papers
found on him sufficiently important to warrant his imprisonment.
In Danville a clerk at the Post-Office satv

The U. S. Circuit /Court at Savannah lias been occupied
for eight days on the case of Brown, Rejesta,
and Acquira, charged with having been engaged in
the African Slave Trade. The Jury, on Wednesday
last, brought.in a verdict of Not Guilty, having been
some twenty hours in the jury room.
The prisoners were remanded to jail, and we understand
are to bo tried again on a second indictment,
founded on their alleged slave trade expedition in the
"Wanderer.
Mechanical.?Our cotcmporary of the Camden Journal,
in a notice of the late Fuir in Columbia, makes the
concluding complaint:
'We regret to see our town and District eo partially
represented. "We have as good Mechanics in Camden
as any to be found, in the various branches of Mechanism,
and yet not the first specimen of their handicraft
was sent to the State Fuir. "Why is this?"
T.HV. Tvlth nnr friend But at thosnmo time must
say that "Winnsboro has proved herself very deserving
in the Mechanical line. Messrs. Elliott and McCreight
have over and again, been awarded premiums at our
State Fairs. If the artizans of Camden are so skillful,
why do they not enter the lists of competitors ? "Why
do they hide their light under a bushel? )Vith our
cotemporary wo ask "why is this?"
Wimxsboro Register.
A Scor.EimOuV.?The Kingstree Star remarks: ""We
suggest to our citizens the propriety, in the present
state of affairs, of organizihg committees in various
parts of the District, whose duty it shall be to examine
well all strangers or suspicious persons that they
may find strolling about over the country. Several
have passed through our District of late. Hequisitions
should be niaoc upqp them as to their business. 4c.,
ana upon in*ir iuuurc to suusiy such uiiuiuukw, mo/
should be futds to leave the country. These committees
ought also to look after the slave population, keep
them well-regulated and undo strict subjection.
SrARTAXBCito Rail Road Completed.?To-day the
iron horse will reach our depot, and the long-cherish
cd project of a rail road connection with the great
worldjiround us be ae?omplished. We most heartily
congratulate our fellow-citizens and the friends of the
road everywhere upon thjp announcement. The whistle
has already i if used new lifo into our people, and
thc> begiu to step with a quicker pace and look more
cheerful. Wo trust that they will now receive the leward
ff their patience, their toil and their perseverance.
As to the important influence which it will expert
upon the prosperity of our town and district, we
shall have something to say at another time. Let
everybody come and rejoice with us on Friday next
^Dur citizeus are in a geuerous mood, and we feel con
?fident they will do all in their power to inake the visit
a pleasant one. **
We cannot close this hastily written paragraph without
mentioning o^r obligations to the worthy officers
of this road, who, amid all sorts of difficulties, have
never despaired, but have persevered to tho end. Their
noble and manly efforts which to-day are crowned with
complete success, are worthy all honor and praise.

The Steam Ship Indian.
Sackville, November 26.?A steamer has returned
from the steam ship Indian, with the remaining survivors.
The steam ship has so totally gone to pieces,
that very little of the cargo can bo saved. Her mails
have been saved and forwarded to their places of destination.
She had on board eight cabin and thirty steerage
passengers, and the most of the latter were Germans
and Hungarians.
There were seventy-seven of the crew in one boat,
under the third officer of the steamer, and all are believed
to be lost.
All the cabin passengers were saved, and it is known
that twenty-seven persons are lost.
Pickpockets.?It will be remembered that the
Columbia papers announced the arrest of five pick'
pockets during the late Fair in that city. They were
kept in comfinemcut until after the Institute Fair was
?>ver, when, no gen tlman caring to appear against them,
three of them were daguerreotypedand led without the
limits of the city on Friday night of last week. The
otlier two, refusing to sit for their likenesses, have been
retained until they comply.
We are informed that the three, who were dismissed
the city, were taken in charge the same night by a re
lief guard at the junction ofthc Cnarlotte KaUroacl near
Columbia, and punished for their rascalities. Their
heads were half shorn, and seventy-five lashes were
laid on their bare backs. They were thon put on board
' the train for this city, with advice to return again when
they desired another application,
i They continued on the South Carolina road to Kings|
ville, where they changed their route to the Wilmington
and Manchester road. Saturday morning they
partook of a hearty breakfast at Florence, and when
last heard of were bound for Wilmington.
