^NTI-SL AVERY rilESSES in the SOUTH.
Emboldened by the success of tho
Washington New Km, the Abolitionists
are thinlddg of establishing other presses
in the South. We suggest to them that
their- work may be belter accomplished in
another form. Anti-slavery presses, under
thai name, can accomplish little lor '.heir
cause. To say nothing of the peril of those
> engaged in the enterprise, the Southern
people "forewarned," would bo " fotearm.

The wisest policy these fanatics can
adopt, is to scml out tlieir Emissaries, who
may, by disguising their purposes, succecd
jjn placing themselvea in charge of Southern
political presses. A little caution and
circumspection is all that is necessary (or
the success of the plan. The agents selictcd
for the work should be uble io dis
avow membership with an Anti-Slavery
Society, whenever interrogated. (And
many of the most uncompromising Free
Soilers could do this with truth.) Once in
the editorial chair, let them shuw the wannest
political zeal, and most unscrupulous
partyism devotion ; thus will he established
a claim upon parly sympathies and gratitude,
upon which Mro:ig rcliance may be
placed in ease of an emergency, during
subsequent operations. In furtherance of
their great object, such gentlemen will probably
begin with the manifestation of great
i>auonai patriotism, lollowetl by ardent love
of the Union, exhibited in frequent quotations
of Washington's Farewell Address.
They will of course assail with fiendish
malignity, under vho odious names of ' Agitators"
and f' Disunionisl," all who take a
firm and prominent 5tan<l in behalf of Southern
rights?well knowing that the Abolitionists
wili have accomplished halt their
work, when they can induce the Southern

their true friends, llicir wisest and most

in Missouri on the subject of slavery and the
Wilmot proviso. It was addressed to the
people of Lexington, occupied upwards of
two hours in its delivery. As its substance
is stated through the Telegraph?
Mr. Benton went into some historical detail
to show the constitutionality of {he Wilmot
proviso, in its applications to the new
territories. He said that the introduction
of the proviso into the Oregon bill, which

over slavery in ihe territories ; that Congress
had passed tho bill, and President
Pollc had signed ir, after the fullest consideration;
and that, in so doing, the Legislature
and Executive branches of the Government
had solemnly acknowledged the Proviso
to be both constitutional nnd expedient.
4< The passage ol a bill organizing a Territorial
government for Minesota, during the
last session, without even an objection from \
Mr. Calhoun, was another admission of tho I
constitutionality of the provision.
" The Missouri resolutions of instruction
Col. Benton dissected with great minutene?s,
showing that their spirit was that of
pure nullification, which, if carried out,
would lead to disunion, and be pledged
himself and the Stale of Missouri to sustain

Greonville and Columbia Railroad. These speeches
wore nil characterized with much ability, and
received in tine spirit; and although the amount of

the information given that day upon the subject
of Railrouds, will have a beneficial influence
on our people in causing them to turn their capital

Fifty Thousand Dollars.
[ Wo were gratified indeed to find Mr. Calhoun
j *0 warm in favor of this project. Living as far
from the village as he doea, and not likely to derive
any immediate benefit from the road, we did not
: expect to Mild in him so zealous an advocatc for its

[ 19 killed and 110 wounded. Gurubaldi made his
escape with 10,000 men, liis reported intention is
to invade the kingdom of Naples. A dctachment
of the Frcnch army was sent in pursuit.
Further Indian Outbreak*.
Wo learn by the Savannah Georgian, that a further
outbreak of the Indiana wus made ut Charlotto
Harbor, on the Gulf coast, nearly simultaneous
with that on Indian River, so near that the
express from the Eust and West met ut Tampa.
The Indian*, some fifteen or twenty in number,
came ill at the trading storo at the mouth of Pease
Creek, at the head of Charlett's Harbor,and inquired
for Mr. Kennedy, the principal in the establishment,
lie being absent they killed the clerk uml another
man and wounded several othf>r? nmnn/>
liicii, plundered the store, set fire to and burned it
to the ground. They then decamped with their
plunder and drove ofl* with (linn a number of cattlo.
No suspicions of hostility were entertained by
the inhabitants who were of course unprepared for
an attack. The greatest alarm and confusion prevails
among tho frontier settlers who have llcil to
places of safety and abandoned their property and
crops to the mercy of the Indians.
It wasmipposcd at first that tliero were not inoro
I (linn two hundred and fifty wurriors remaining, hut
it is now ascertained from reliable sources that thero
is over five hundred capable of bearing urms. This
number us thoroughly acquainted as they arc with
the swamps aud country will do much mischief and
it wi|l Le no easy matter to drive them out.
The despatches forwarded on to Washington wero
received there and the Republic Rays the War Department
has in ado preparations to despatch a sufficiont
force, to the country to repel the Indians, if
they conlempluto other hot.liliticH, or to bring the
murdrers to justice, if this be the mere violence of a
few 6lagglere.
This dreadful scourge seems to be abatiug but
little as yet; in St. Louia thousands have been car.
rind off. and tho placo almost depopulated. Cincinnati
and Now Orleans present also frightful bills of
mortality. A correspondent of the Baltimore Sun,
undor date of tho 27th ult. writing from New York
sayp;
The Cholern, I regret to iuform you, is fearfully
on tho increase. Tho Board of Health today
report 205 coach, and 66 deaths for the 24
hours ending at noon. There is much alarm on the
nbjcct, and fears are entertained that the worst
hus not come."
A correspondent of the New York Tribune
states that, in one burial ground, iu tho vicinity of
tho city, the interment* for the last two months
had he on on un average inoro than one hundred
por duy.
CeiiMis.
We notice that tho whito population in Greenville
according to the late cciibus is 13,552, an increase
since 1839 of 906. The white population of
Anderson in put down at 18,463, being an increas0
of 1,000 since the lost census was taken. Tho
white population of Pickcns is 12,000 an increase
also of 1,400.
We regret that the census taker has not furnished
us according to promise with the census of our
own district, weunderstand however, it is something
over 13,000 whites, a falling off since 1839. Why
is this, that Abbeville District, possessing the most
fertile lands in the Stato. the best adanted for the
cultivation of corn and cotton Bhould be losing her
population ? The answer is plain, bccause we have
not the proper facilities for getting our produce to
market, and our people arc removing to sections
whore such is not the case. Let us go on with the
building of the contemplated Rail Road, and a different
order of things will soon be visible. And before
the next census is taken, we too cau record an
increase of population.

" A Green Spot," Again.
Having understood that the friends in
Washington Street are well pleased with
our remarks in the last " Banner," as well
at with their champion, to whom those remarks
had reference, we have concluded to
take courage, and go on. We suppose,
then, that it is admitted, that Temperance
Societies are completely demolished, and
that, so far as the u Sods of Temperance"
,are concerned, there is not even u a grease
left. ^Wo shall. now^praceed to show,
must stare the ?ame fate, for thcfargumantJ
tfcptsast*in the former support the lslter,
and, that being placed on (he same common
platfortDj all must tumble down together.
And who will not admit that it would be a
great wring to society to demolish all af the
TfSt named societies, Why, sir, independent
of the new state of things they have in*
troduced, they are very expensive. Abolish
the whole of them at one fell sweep, ?n?

uiiitptpa ngming, ana UtDQ^ 1'UlllDg,

not *11 admit, that men would be more social.
Why, sir, I have seen more sport, of
the old-fiuhion?d kind, at one of our cioss
roail Grog Shop? of a Saturday owning*
than I ever saw at all the churches in the
land. And now. sir, you may go to the
Buck Stand, or the Buzzard Roost, or the
Rams Horn, indeed, to almost any of
these celebrated places, and you will hard- r
ly seo any body?things are just as different
as they can be, and 1 attribute ail of"
this to these societies, which havo no direct
warrant in tho Bible. *

This insiitution is now, and has been for
tho last two years, in charge of tho lley.
mr. i uuner, a gentleman ol finished Classical
education, and of high literary attainments,
and who has had long experience
in the ait of Female Instruction, lie is
assisted in his labors by Miss Lk Brkton,
; who has charge of a number of Classes ju
the primary Branches, and also of the departments
of Drawing and the French
Language.
The Music department is still in charge
of Miss Haurison, who with eminent skill
and ability, has continued to conduct it for ^
the last ten years, and with such signal suecess,
during the whole period, as to give entire
satifaction to the numerous patrons of
the Institution.
As much lias been said in regard to the
iicaliliof the village, il is bat nn act of justice
to state, that for the last ten year?, during
all which time the school has been in
successful operation, there has been among
the pupils, only one death, and that occasioned
by measles ; and that not a single
cago of ecvere illness occasioned by fever,
has occurred in the same period. The
history of the Academy, in this respect,
will compare, favorably with other places,
which claim a better reputation.
The number of pupils in School, duiing
the first session of the present year, was 72;
and during the hut session, 02. I

Ab some of the subjects named in this
synopsis of the studies of the pupils, embrace
two or more classes, the Patrons of the
Academy may form some idea of the amount ,
of labor performed by the respective
Teachers. *
The exercises of the Examinntion com*
menced at 9 o'clock, Thursday morning,
26th July, (instant,)- and continued- uiltil
11 o'clock, Friday evening-following;
Twenty-four classes were examined on
different subjects, embracing-the v<?rioiJK
branches of Female Education. And^Jtilthough
the time devoted to the exercises of
each class was necessarily shorttyet the Examination
was sufficient to provo to the Patrons
of the School) that ytha labor, arduous
as it was, had-been faithfully performed?that
the m< st thorough system of instruction
had been pursued by the Touchers,
and that what the pupils had been directed ,
to study* they were required fully to under- t
stand. - > The
Examination, throughout, was con- t
dueled in a manner calculated to show tho t
true extent of the knotvled?r? nhd imnrnvo
menl of the Pupil, and al the same time indicate
the rent nature, dncT'adtahgtages
of the plan of education'ifdopied by the
Teacher. And it was apparent, from the
exercises of the different classes, that the
teachers, respectively, hud tioi only cuc- i
ceeded in engaging-the- attention, and directing
the mfnds of their pujtf Is, to thfctfab- [
jecta of instruction, but likewise'iff'imparting
to them correct knowledge of ^principles
of science, in the various branches of
