BLUB BIDOK RAILROAD. We see from the Pickens Courier that the citizens of Picken* held a meeting at Pickens C. II., on Sale Day last, to make the necessary arrangement* for a Railroad Mass Meeting, to be heiti ai i utinrl llill, between the reviews of the 2d and ftth Kegimenta, yet to be ordered by Ooverner Girt. On motion, the Cemmitten of Invitation was instructed to invite Mnj. B. F. Pehry and C. 0. MKMMiNoen to make speeches on the occasion, and that the members of the Legialature, with oilier distinguirhed gentlemen, be invited to be present. TRJK CONCERT.

Those | who have not heard them should not omit to go out on Friday evening next. Theirs is truly a musical treat, with which every one must be pleased. - - # ?' THE COURANT. We have received the first number of this new Literary weekly paper, which is published in Columbia, and is under the Editorial supervision of Howard H. Cai.pwr.i.i- From ita ap. pearance, and the array of names who have promised to brcome contributors to it, we are led to infer that it will be a first clues Literary journal. We cordially commend it to the patronage of a Southern public. It i? furni?hed to subscribers at $ 2.00 pir annum. Other papers containing more mat. tcr may he had for lew money, but we ask yon to remember that the cheapest article is some times the most costly. Thin is not less true when applied to newspapers aa when it refers to any other commodity. AMBKOTYPE8. We are pleased to notice that G. E. F*aHfsflton has opened an Ambrotype Gallery in the second story of the Wooden Wing of the Marshall IIou.se. We learn, loo, that ho is stationed here permanently. lie will be pleased to see his friends and customers from any part of the District. He is prepared to take AmbrotypeB, Spherotypes, Mclainotypes and Rolicvotypes of any size or style, lie is also prepared to insert the best specimens of the art iu Brooches, Medal ions and Rings. Mr. Farkington is a perma nent resident of the place, and may at all times be found at his room to accommodate all who may favor him with a call. He hats some beautiful specimens of his skill which may be seen at his room. Toonr friends from the country who may desire anything in his line, we can recommend him a* an artist in every way worthy of support. nm cTnv muurtiEB.rD r cnaiifi VUbbEUfi.

This is the largest Battalion in the District. We suppose that on this oceasion there were near three hundred men on drill, The various evolutions were performed as ell at Der haps better than tlisy are usually executed at Militia Musters. We gire the officer* of this Battalion credit fur playing their parts in this Militia Farce as well as could be dons under our defective and worthless militia sy*tem. Dr. Barjka, the Surgeon of the Regiment, closed the show by a flaming rpeech in favor of the militia system, Aa. His spoeoh would compare wel) with the majority of the militia harrttngues that we have heard. It was g very ere dirt able thing of the hind. The Doctor, we have no doubt, may be successful in the treatment of most of his patients, but lie must excuse the expression of our doobts as to his ability to doctor into even tolerable health, our diseased and decaying militia ayitern. It ) beyond the power of medical skill. A world of Doctors could not s?v? ft. ? CHARLES DICK2HS. We see it stated in the Augusta Chronicle <k Sentinel that J. M.

The Atheneum Hall Was a repository in wnich conld be seen the fashions of almost every age, It was visited during the eftine by a large number of ladiea, who from the gallery, had a fine view of the mingling below of the fair representatives of the beamy aifd fashion of many ages.
