in headlong fliglit from the capital of h?r greatest

If we sro t.i put any fa+th in tbe great orgna

Juiie, in aft article welcoming Lord Palmerston
nn 1 the Liberals to the seats of power, Jiea the

&ou?y?d' of purase, but not, therefore, the Issa
explicit iu meauing:
' f.'.lilra n( An.?ri.n 1 ??J :
bnponible for Kugland or Europe to conatder the
t wo antagonistic power* aa being on that equalit)
which was nsiumed before the war. Then two
powerful end haughty Emperors, each with hit
half million of men, were engaged in a dirpute
which they cxrried on with rullen dignity on
each aide. The Britiah Oovernment praaumtd
ih?-rn to be equally strong and highly placed, and
auiceptible of their honor, and ao waa able to aak
each other to make concaaaioua for the purpoae
of propitialing the other. It waa incumbent oa
them to suppose th:?t tho Anatrian rula in Italy
?ould he upheld ngahwt a foreign invader, and,
a* the Italian aovereigna were reigning peaeta?>ly
in their pilacea, it waa imposaibla to treat
them but a* the legitimate aovereigna of their
Mtatea. But it ia evident that theae preaumptiona,
according to which Lord Derby'e Miniatry
ahapod ita demand* and ita recommendationa,
muat now he abandoned. W? are not about
to foretell the immediute expulaion of tha Auatriana
from Italy; a grent power, put on ita
mattla. and with nn immmiM ?rmv mil
fortresses, may give many month*' trouble to
any adversary- But the Auilriana have certainly
shown themselves no match for thair adversaries
in fair fighting- We cannot doubt,
then, that Lord Palmerston and Lord John Roaaall
will avow their sympathy with an Italian
Treadom and a successful campaign. Tbe only
means of procuring a voice in the aeltlament of
tha Peninsular is to have been previously an ally
with those who hold the country in their hand*.
Austria will, perhaps, in a few moniha bo no
mora an Italian power than Prussia, and our
interests in those regions will bring ua in connection
with her more fortunate rivals. The
lime instincts, too, which made us opposed to
Prance when sho appeared to be seeking war,
may make as opposed to Aualria when aha
appears to be persisting in it It is for the advantage
of the world that the last great trial
to which nationa resort ahould, like other
trials, be as short as Dnasihla. Th? Rriiiati (5??.
ernment may think that the retreat of Genrral
Gyulia from tho banks of the 9>ein,ihe
repulse at Montehelln, and the decided defeat*
at Palestra aud Mngenta, are sufficient indication*
that the Auatriau* are inferior to their
antagonist*, und that they ought to acquit *ce
in the decision of fortune, and (five the world
peace by retiring from Italy. If, indeed, it be
made evident thai they must some day leave the
country, the sooner they can be made to leave it
the better."
Rendered into plainer English, these emphatic
sentences may be regarded as a gracious
tadrerli?ement to Austria, and to the little Ger
t- roan Slates which have been so eager in her
* defence; that the time'has come foi her to
v learn that the England of 1859 ie no longer the
England of lBU ; that the policy of Pitt and
Castlereagh must he understood to be forever
buried in the grave which has just closed over
the remain* of Melternich; and that the lame
commercial Britain, which wai ready to riak
her alliance with France in the hope of keep

ready now to join in trampling beaten Austria
under foot for the lake of restoring that

HAP0LE0N3 PERSONAL PKCULIARITIM.
Blackwood'* Magazine for June gives ome
remarks ou the personal characteristics of Napoleon
III.:
He has gained friends as well as enemies by
one most extraordinary faculty that h? poetesses?that
of holding hie tongue, and of doing
ao in the company of the moat loquacious people
in the world. A perfect undemonstrative man,
some Frenchmen respect him for it; whde others
'ear him, others bate him because he will
not take them into his counsels; and many Englishmen,
again like him because ha Batten the
national vanity by being iu many respects very
like an Englishman. He ia cold and reserved in
his public demeanor; more cordial,-aay his
friends, when seen in private. Certainly he
does not " wear his heart upon his aleeve, for
daws to peck at." He listens to all that ia said
le him, and then takes his own course. He
consults everybody and follows hia own advice.
a i.. i - ?- j ?i ? i
IID hod n p;wu DOiw OXJ nuriCD?Cll.-?
Oth?r Englishmen dislike him either because
they ride badly themselves, or because, not
being able to keep Iheir own cornice), they hate
a clone character. Such causes, or causes of
no greater weight, are perhaps more nearly the
true Cbutet of hia unpopularity in England than
any common place notions of his being the destroyer
of the liberties of France. Ho had
equally destroyed the liberalities of France when
ha made hia triumphal entry into Loudon. The
English press, at least in some of its leading organs,
has undergone many phases of opinion
concerning him; and he complained in his letter
to Sir Francis Head of this conduct of the
English press, by that very complaint showing
that he had aome regard to public opinion in
England.
Ir wa venture ourselves to express an opinion
regarding his character, we put it forth in all
modesty, and wish it to be understood in as
ragoe and general a sense as possible, feeling
ourselves incompetent to take the measure of a
man who is certainly not an ordinary man. It
is onr impression that he is a man whose general
talent has kern rather overruted than otherwise
He has doubtless a great power of will and un
daunted courage. both physical and moral, and
by that inestimable faculty of holding his tongue
ha is able to bide his tims, observe circumstances,
and thus make the most of them, and bring to
bear on them, at the right lime all the faculties
ha possesses.
Perhips his poliev appears to ba mysterious,
simply because he has no policy at all, but is
ready to abandon one course and adopt another,
according as he stumblea against a barrier, or
drifla into an opening- Doubtless it is often tha
cause of success in life. Some men of uncon*
querabte strength of will and great talent, gat on,
as it ia called, by beuding the world to their
plan*. Others do so by forming no Diana at all
m permanence, bat faehioning ana refashioning
those they do form in the mould of circumstances:
whilo the secret of ill-success, even
more often than in the deficiency of ability, consist
in not knowing whether one possesses the
power to lesd.or whether one must be content
to follow. Louis Napoleon is said to be fatalist,
and his extraordinary elevation would tend
to confirm him in his fatalism. Before he takes
any step, he ssems to hold up h'w hand and see
which way the wind is blowing, and whether
the air comes against it bot or oold. But thst
holding of the tongue is his meet admirable
quality.

In reaponae to the announcement that there
would be a celebration of the 4th at this place, a

to be present. At the proper hour the Company
repaired to the stind. erected in a beautiful

who offered au appropriate prayer. Mr. Smith
then read in a clear and audible voice the Declaration
of Indepedenoe, after which Col. W.
II. Camybkll, of Greenville, the Orator of the

a half, making a very appropriate and interesting
address. His matter was well chosen and
wa!l arranged, and delivered in a etjle that
would certainly impress many that ho hat the

IR IT A DEAD IS8UE T
We notice that ao-ne of our Southern journal*,
which are easily atfiighted at the shadow of
any thing which portends dmintegration of the
present organization of what i? termed the Naliunal
Democratic Party, seem to regxrd the
question raited during the last session of CongreM
a* to the power of a Territory to exclude slavery
by it* legislature, at a fruitleta contention, a dead
issue, fraught with discord and danger to the
Democratic patty. It it, eay they, a distracting
issue, and for the lake of harmonizing (he party,
should be avoided: that it iri an abstract nothing,
about which there should be no dispute. It
may be a weakness of oura, but wo must
coufsss that we cannot subscribe to ihia version
of that disouseion. We believe it involves a
priuoiple?a Constitutional right which is of vital
importance to the South ; that it is not an abstraction,
but thai it practically involves the
right of the slave holder to b? proteoted with
his negroea in a Territory. If it is true, as claimad
by the followers of Douui.ia, that a Territorial
Legislature, if not directly, may indirectly,
lawfully interdict slavery in a Territory, then any
number of squatters, under a territorial organization,
may forbid the entrance of slaves, and
thus destroy tha rights of slaveholder in a Territory.
Is it a matter of no consequence to us
that we are to be forbidden the occupation of
that public domain which has been purchased
and paid for with a common fund, and which
according to an universally received theory, at
leant at the South, is held by the general government
in the character of a Trustee for the use
and benefitol'all the States composing this confederacy
7
We have noaympathy for that unwite policy
that would smother truth, and trample down sacred
and CoBSlit?tional rights for the sole pur
pose of maintaining party coherence. Tarty
orgaoizat iona can never be productive of good,
excapi wnen iney aland upon the immutable
foundation* of justice and right ; and whenever
error*, or fains doctrines, arc nought to be engrafted
upon th.< policy of any party, by apostates
from lite true faith, it i* not only the right but the
duty of the true defender* of tlie faith to atand
oppoted to such herisies by every lrgilmale
mean* within their power, to combat the error*
and prejudicea of even those who were once of
the lame fold.
A Territory ia nothing more than a large tract
of land belonging to the several States; a* joint
tenant*. It ha* no government or legal existence
but that granlrd' hy the Congress of the
United States. If Congress, nndtr the CoqhUtulion,
has no power to abolish or prohibit slavery
in a Territory she cannot delegate such a
power to her agent, the Territorial Legislature.
And Congress would be direliet in her duty if she
permitted the Territorial Legislature to do cither
directly or indirectly what she could not constitutionally
do herself. The South does not ask
Congress to enact a slave code for the Territories.
We want slavery lo ntand or fall by the
Constitution and the decisions of (he Supreme
CourK The Constitution has given us the right
of protection to our property in the Territories
The Supreme Court hns decided that we are entitled
to it; and we only complain that this new
fangled notion that the power of a Territorial
Legislature ia superior lo the Constitution, lo the
Supreme Court or any other power known to our
government ; that thia infamous doctrine of
Territorial sovereignly, carries with it the power
to override the Constitution. Many of our Democratic
brethren of the North feign to believe
that it matters not whatmay be iho limitations of
the Constitution upon the subject of slavery, nor
what the Supreme Court may hav* decided up
> on the subject, it makes no difference what
may be the rightsofthe South under the Constitution,
that a Torritorial Legislature is sovereign,
and may hy her acts mnke void ttie Constitutional
provisions in our favor. It is a sclf-evil
dent absurdity to <'eny the Constitutional power
of Congress to abolish slavery, and admit that
the mere cre.iture or agent?upon which Congress
could confer no greater power than she
possesses?may be lawfully empowered to do so.
We believe that it is a mistaken policy,even in a
party organization, to permit baneful dogmas to
spring up, and rankle unrebuked for the purpose
of maintaining harmony Let us stand by principle
Hod right, and rebuke error and falshood,
withersoever it mny come or whatever the iorm
it may Msume.

There were also strong rumors that Prussia

According to the prevalent conjecture, peace

8T. JOHN'S DAY AT ANDERSON?COMMENCEMENT
AT LAURENS, &o- ^
Mr. Editor : A* il is now nlnmut n universal

cacaelhc* tcribcndi to inflict upon tlio reaffera
oT their District paper an account of Iheir peregrinations,
l>o they long or short, with your per- g
misainu I will give you a hasty roview of n
recent jaunt to Anderson and Laurens. I
I, in company with a number of others, left
off the dull routine cf business on Friday, the
24th ult., to attend the Masonic eelebralion at 0
\l
Andorsou, at which place the iron horse soon
landed us, where we found ample preparations
made by tho Brethren of Hiram Lodge for our *
accommodation. Arriving about 10 o'clock we
were soon aum moned to the Lodge room. The
Masouic llall, though a vary spacious room, was
crowded alinoit to suffocation, no large was the ^
attendance and the day excessively warm.
There were about 225 Masons in tho procession ^
and thirteen lodges represented, among them ^
three from Georgia.
After a few preliminary arrangement* the a
procession was formed, and marched to tho ^
Johnson Female University. After prayer by '
Kev. W. P. Martin, Hon. Jab. I?. Our was in- r
troduced as the orator of the day, and delivered n
a forcible and argumentative address. I will not n
attempt a synopsis, as I would doubtless do the "
distinguished speaker injustice. It is sufficient 8
bo say that it was like every thing else Mint pro- "
needs froom this gentleman?sound and logical ; ^
and without any labored effort to be flowery, 11
the speaker adhered closelv to th? ?e*l. mnltinir r
nodigressions from tlie appropriate lino of bis c
discourse. Tlie address was truly eloquent, and ^
calculated, iu my humble judgment, to be more
beneficial (o Masonry llian any address I have
ever before heard.
Al the conclusion of the address the proces- I
sion returned to the Hall, and each Brother bo-. li
ing furnished with a dinner card, proceeded to S
the Finley House, where a most sumptuous n
dinner was spread, bv lhat princo of hosts, Mr. '
Finlkt, proprietor of tlie Finley House. d
Dinner bring discussed and a aufDoicnl qnan- C
titjr of wine imbibed, the Regular Tons's were b
read ; nftor which the "volunteer'' sentiments d
were called for, when several good extempore e
speeches were made. Tlie proceedings at the
dinner table passed off quite pleasantly, and I fi
was truly gratified to observn lhat all the Breth- fi
ren lelt the festive board in tobemett, rather an b
unusual occurrence, even among Masons, ou such v
occasions. s
Dinner being over, I was very kindly invited t'
By my f.iend Mr. James A. IIott, of the Gazette, J
to* a ride arwond the village, by which I had the f
pleasure of- ?eeii?g many of the beautiful reai- I
(fences of that place, together with those of I
Judges Wmtne-R and Mu.nroe, Cols. J. L. Orr, b
J. P. Reed, J I). Ashuork, their present Representative
to Congresa, and Mr. Sloan, Clerk of ,
the House of Representatives of our State. An- 1
dorron is a thriving village, and with such citi- t
7.eiiB as I have named,, ehe has just cause to com 0
pliment herself upon the high standing and re. j,
spectability of her inhabitants. f
The festivities of the day closcd with a mag
nificent Ball, in 'which I participated, and f
though a stranger to warty e?ery one present,
I must suy I never spent a more pleasant evening, (
Much credit is due to the managers for the kind c
manner in which they welcomed and ministered v
to the comfort of strangers visiting them on this fl
occasion. |;
I left Anderson on the following mornrtig, aod ^
having to visit Laurens, I thereby had the opp?rtunity
of attending the Commencement exercises
of the Laurensville Female College, which
began on Monday the 27ih ult. Tho Commencement
sermon wa? preached by Rev. E. T. Buist, 8
President of the College. Dr. Duist ia an able C

The examination of tho classe* commenced
on Monday, and continued until Wednesday, 12
o'clock. The Chapel vai ao dbnsely filled w ith visitors,
who hurried to the Ilall at an early hour to
secure seats, that I was unable to get near enough
to hear distinctly all the various questions and answers,
but heard enough to satisfy myself that K
the examination was rigidly though fairly con- ^
ducted, and the questions promptly answered. ?
Wedne?day night win appointed for the Concert.
The Hall was filled to a perfect jam at an
early hour. The concert was opened with sing- ^
ing, in which the young ladies of the College a
generally participated. The vnrious pieces were a
well executed, and the young ladies acquitted lJ
with credit, not only themselves, but their a
teachers also. c
Next came Prof. Jaeokr's address, which I u
take for granted, wan a good one, as I cannot
speak from anything thai [ heard of it, for the jj
noise and disturbance, bud enough during the n
previous exercises, still grew worse, assuming t<
JXM?re the appearance of a "conversation party" n
than an assemblage of intelligent and polite citi e
lens to listen to a well studied and classical ad- jj
dress. U
On Thursday morning, Commencement Day, ft
the exercises were opened by the singiug of a r
very feeling song by Mr. Hbnderson, the blind JJ
Professor in the Cedar Springs Institute for the t]
Blind. n
After prayer by Rev. II, D. Moobe, the com- *
positions of tho graduating class were read by n
Rev. David Wills, one of the Professors. Tlie
compositions would have done credit to older
and more experienced heads, and I was almost ~
incredulous enough lo doubt the avowed author- j
ship. The following are the names of the graduate*,
and the subjects of their compositions : J
J.?Miss Mart E. Byrd?Happy Home.
2.?Miss Lizzie Craio?"Apples of Gold in j
Pictures of Silver." a
3.?Miss C. R. Dudley?Solid Literature. o
4.?Miss V. E. D. Epriu?Memories. ?

11.?Miu Addie Snoddh?Biography of Han- 11

12.?Mi" Anna M. Gunnels?'Valedictory.
The President then moat feelingly, though
briefly, addreaaed the young ladies of tho grad- j
untingclass,, and conferred the Diplomas. tl
Hon. J. A. I no lis, the Orator of the day. next P
came forward, and waa introduced to the au- *
dience. I need say nothing in praise of this ex. ?
cellent address?'twould be superfluous. It will p
no doubt be published, and generally circulated. ?
After benediction bj Rev. J. L. Kknnbdt, the ?
ezeroises of the second Commencement of tho u
Laurlnsville female College were cloasd. This e
College, we are pleaaed to know, Is now in a moct ?
flourishing condition, and it has my beat wishes ?

P?J the Potior* and Congrrgjtiont
of the Various Denominations of
Proltst ant Christians itt South
Carolina : \
At (he last Annual Convention of the Bible
lociety of this State, South Carolina was
nanimously pledged by her assembled Delegates,
o raise five thousand dollars for the distiibution
f the Bible, through tlio American Bible Soicty,
iij foreign couutriea. The undersigned
f ?ro appointed a committee to address the State
t large on this important subject. The facts
phicli induced this resolution, and now form the
iasis of this appesl, are as follows: Intelligence
ia* been received by the Parent Society that there
re not a few places in the West Indies in Span*
ih and Portuguese America where the Bible can
e profitably 'circulated, to the removal of snerstition
and error, and the salvation of soals.
An appeal comes likewise from France for aid
o give the Bible to the many there who are ready
ind willing to receive it. Eight or ten thousand
lollars are wanted for this field alone, by the
American Bible Society. France, with all her
efinements and superior civilization needs, and
ow asks for the Bible, Shall we refuse itf Gertiaiiy,
loo, we ar# credibly informed, furnishes
in important field for this work. From Con
luiiuHujiiu cullies up a moBi urgent demand
or the pure word of God. Translations, retiring
at least $14,000, are wanted in the
nodAn Armenian Armeno Turkish, and Bulga.
inn languages, llere. then, is a "wide and
Hectual door" set open for tlie entrance of God's
anctifying word. Ilere, in the very heart of the
ilohommedan Empire, multitudes are asking
jr the pure truth of Jeans. Nowhere, we are |
ssuretf, is the Bible more desired or better usedii
Syria, too, an Arabic Bible is nearly ready for
lie press and widely culled for. India and
iiam are asking for the everlasting word, and
iow China and Japan, with their untold milions,
have been opened by a miracle of Provience
for the free and unobstructed spread of
Soil's merciful truth. Here the ipirituul slum>er
of ages is to be broken. How may this be
one, but by the light and power of God's quickniug
word.
The great question comes up, shall these wije
elds of gracious opportunity be occupied or no |
ien, sinful immortal men, are asking of us the
reai Ih at camo down from heaven, and which
ire, undor our Father's bounty, have and "to
pare." Shall we deny itf Shall we cast beforo
hem only the stone of our unbelief f The whole \
lissionary world is now arranging itself for the
ulfillment of that glorious prophecy, " The
Sarth shall be full of the knowledge of the
-ord n? (lie waters cover the sea." What

The Bible Society of Suuth Carolina has aleady
Answered the question before God. It
las pledged this Stale for Jive thousand dollars
owarde this great and blessed work. Christians
f South Carolina, we bhIc now your co-operation
q raising this amount. We look for a liberal reiponBC
to tbis call for the 13i!>le, reaching us from

Committee.
N. B.?A collection is respectfully and urently
desired from each Congregation of the
tate, before the Convention of our State Bible
ociety, August 2d, at Yorkville, S. C.
Jutliee.?While there is little difference between
law in the United Stales and in Great
lritain,no one hos failed to observe that there
re more defects of law here than in Great Britin?that
juries and courts here do not sustain
lie laws. They are kept sacred and powerful in
lie old country by the habits of the people, who
pply the law to the cases submitted to their deision.
Corruption has had little influence in
ndermining the administration of justice there.
Many canscs for the maladministration of jusce
ore visible in th? United States. The memera
of the legal profession, as a class, do not
ink high, as too many of them will undertake
j free the most hardened criminals, though the
lost that they should do is to watch the intersis
of guilty persons, and to guard them against
rejudice and undue punishment The exeepions
in the profession are too few to give dignity
j the law, or to those who are memb?rs of it.?
Inny grave and important trials have been caried
on here, in vliirh inlnlUefml m?n li?<?
lade themselves notorious throughout the world
y netting up the most absurd theories to enable
iieir guilty clients to escape. Every man is faliliar
with historieeof the kind. Hence it is that
ociety is called upon to suffer to the extent it
ow does.?Pennsylvania Enquirer.
