The Ilonie Journal, of the 20th ultimo, remarks
of it:
uAfrt. HowlantVs Seminary ?The most
enthusiastic topic of conversation among private
circles, in the upper part of our city,
during the past week, seems to have been
an unusually charming musical entertain
ment, given on the 5th inst., by the pupils
f Mrs. (lowland's well known ' Mora, ili I
Seminary,' in Thirty fifth street. The do
lightful instrumental performances, by the
pupils, were striking evidences of that thor
ough crturso of instruction which aloue could
perfect tliem for such an exhibition of musical
skill; while the genial presence of Mr.
Wollenhaunt, the composer, and of Aptomas,
the harpist, gave additional zest to an
occasion which will long he remembered by
an extensive and highly appreciative audience,
who seein unanimous in pronouncing
this much talked-of concert as decidedly n
' gem of the season.' "

Tb* 9*11 Op*?*!!
The canvass for Congress has now coin?
menced. It is pretty generally understood
that it will be a triangular race, three cani
didntes being in the field. Colonel Jones
1 and Col. Auiimore addressed the citizens of
Auderson on Tuesday last at the Masonic
Hall. We could not remain to listen to
, those gentlemen throughout, but presume
: they both made excellent speeches. T. O.
' P. Vernon, Esq., of Spartanburg, was called
1 for, but was not present. There was conaid,
erablo anxiety to seo Mr. Vernon and to
? hear him speak. Ho will no doubt gratify
, their curiosity before the campaign is over.
I Take Care.
, A correspondent of the True Carolinian,
signing himself ' Pincy Mountain," has been
' to Greenville, and in a spirit of fault finding
and a desire to injure the fair reputation of
our place, ha* taken occasion to compare the |
Uew Baptist church here to n "Dutch burn," I
> and to make assertions about u* ihat are not ,
onlv ungenerous but untrue. What lie snys )
of the church is certainly snid at the ri>k of
' his re|>otntion for good r.onse and tnste, and
, shows a degrne of ignorance on the part of
the w j er that is almost intolerable. Unless
" Pincy Mountain " extend his line of travel
beyond his present limits, he should never
attempt to criticise architecture, in fact any
thing which may be beautiful. Should ho
make the attempt without so doing, he will
bo written down " an ass."
Accident
We regret to learn (says the Carolinian)
tlmt, on Saturday last, an accident occurred
on the Union and Spartanburg Kail road,
front a wheel running off from one of the
box cars. The passenger car was thrown
off. and several gentlemen injured. Among
them, the Hon. Judge O'Neal I received a
severe cut upon his head, ami was otherwise
injured. Ho was carried to Union, and on
Monday attempted to hold court, but was

serious apprehension was had of his caso.
Anderson Court.
The Court of Cuinnion Pleas and General
Sessions for Anderson District U bemg lit Id
tliis week. Judge Wakdlaw presiding. In
company with several gentlemen of the bar
from Greenville, we placed ourself on Imard
; the car* on Monday morning for Anderson.
Upon looking onward, wo found that the
precise company had vNited Anderson together
just six month* previous, and were
rejoiced to find that all of them were in the
enjoyment of good health and fine spirits.
We remained at Uelton about an hour and
a italf, until the train could go to Donald*
in order to bring up Judge Wardlaw, and
members of the Abbeville bar.
The village of Anderson look* much like
it did six months ago. A considerable busi
ness in cotton is going on, but from the
number of assignments and notices of "selling
oft* at cost," we judge that a portion of
her merchants have been doing a losing business
the pasi year.
The number of ease* returned to Anderson
Court was about three hundted, twothirds
of which we should think were in the
process jurisdiction. The Session* Docket
is lighter than it has been for years, which
speak* much for the moral improvement of
her people.
The Benson Ilottso and Finley'a Hotel
are the principal boatdinc houses of the
place. Wentnpped at the former, and found
tlio accommodation* an excellent, a* tbe
crowded state of the house would admii,?
The fare m a* good n? one can wish, and the
room* are neat and comfortable. The gentlemanly
proprietor, Mr. Lanoston. is reaping
an extensive patronage, and one which
we think ia remunerative and profitable.
The HI no Ridge Railroad will soon be
completed to Pendleton. Wo were inform
cd that cars would he running to that place
in the eon rue of four weeks, or lee* time. It
is the intention of the citizens of Pendleton
to give a Railroad party ae eoon as lite road
is finished to that place, at which we think
Greenville will be fully represented.
It wae the impression when we left Anderson
on Tueeday afternoon, that the Court
would probably adjourn to day.

Dear Price?We tract that a few lines
from an old friend, and an ex-editor, may not
be unacceptable at the present, time. At
any rate, wo send you a short episth*, in the
hope that you and your many render^ 'have
not forgotten " Bayard," who, in the days of

the columns of tho Enterprise.
For several days, the weather has been j
quite cold, and this afternoon snow commenced
falling in good earnest. Unfortunately
for the young folk*, it melt* almost
ns fan as it falls, so that euow-balling cannot
be indulged in to any g?-eat extent.?
Since dark, however, the cold has increased.
and we may, on to-morrow, have a good
time sleighing, snow balling, and frolicking
generally.
The Court of Common Pleas nnd General
Sessions for IlichlHud District, is now
being held in our city?Judge Glover presides.
Last week was occupied with the
Criminal Calendar. On Saturday, Lawrence
Sclavcn was sentenced to he hung on Fiiday,
April 30ih, for highway robber.v.?
The offenco consisted in forcibly taking
money away from an individual after knock
ing him down, nnd it occurred on Bridge
street, in Columbia, on Sunday morning,
several weeks ago. A boy, about fifteen
years of age, named McAndrew, was sen
ienced to bo hung at the same time, for
breaking open the store of L. Eliaa, and
stealing articles therefrom. Ililler and
Spaulding, who robbed Mr. Veal's store last
January, and who were cunningly detected
by our admirable Chief of Police, John
Burdell, were sentenced to be imprisoned
one year, reccivo thirty nine lashes, and pay
a heavy fine. Several individuals \tere con
victed of selling liquor to slaves, and ordered
to be punished severely. This species of
traffic, so dangerous, is, evidently, on the increase
in our city, ami we regret exceedingly
that the Carolinian should have spoken
of the law?of the evidence it admitted ?
and the means taken to procure thkt "evidence?in
language *ocondemnatory. Men
that sell liquor to negroes are dangerous to
any community, and their puni-bment conld
hardly be too severe. They, too. are gener
ally very running, nilfnl and trickv?hard
to detect in their nefarious proceedings.?
The law of the State has, therefore, wisely
provided for the admission of such evidence
in these eases, as would not bo admissible
under other circumstances.
Since John Burdell, Chief of the Citv
Police, has been engaged in accordance w itii
his sworn duty, in detecting nnd prosecuting
those who carried on illicit trailic with
fliives, he has naturally become unpopular
with a certain class in the community. The
Dtompt nnd impartial manner in which he
has discharged his official duties, has like
wise caused others to fesir, ami therefore to
dislike him. These facts wete shown clear
ly in the investigation of his recent trial for
'assault and battery upon a Wiv Sallie Crait,
one of the lowest and most abandoned women
in the town. The case came before
the Court on Friday?Mayor Tradewell np
pearing for the defence. It was already
proven, that Hits Crait, as sho styled herself,
was one of the worst and most outra
geous characters in the community?tliul
he had been art estcd by the two witnesses
for the prosecution, who were then police
men, as suspected of trading with negroes
and, in company with a negro, cariied lo
the guard h ?uso. Uurdell looking on her !
as hardly good as a negro?tlio same light
in which most of our citizens regard her?inflicted
several lashes?how many, it was
mil proven ? at the same timo lie \v (mined I
ihe nrgro, and di?rnl??l them both. - 1 ki?
occurred in September, 1830. A qnarrcl
afterwards arose between Burdell and the
two men referred to, and after a year bad
elapsed, this prosecution wan brought,mainly
through their influence, and at their instigation.
One, at least, was very eager in
the matter, and there was a clique or " firtn,"
as Mayor Tradewel! styled it, who. no doubt,
warmly seconded his ellorts. The delecta
hie M i-s Sallie could not bo found to tell
the stoiy of her grievous wrongs, and. nl
though the jury was compelled, from the
mere fact that the woman had received one
or more lashes, to render a verdict of guil
ty," yet their statetneui to the judge, united
to the fact that the prosecution was com
tnenced and carried on through notot-intt*
malice, and that the nominal prosecu'or was
of such outrageous character, that the So
licitor confessed that ho would have reluc
lantly put her upon the witness stand, had
she been in Court, led his Honor very pfpp
erly to impose a light flne ($75.00) upon
Burdell. Those who expected to see llini
legraded by imprisonment, were sndly disappointed,
as their countenances showed.-?
Our citizens generally exhibited much sympathy
for Burdell, and the amount of hi*
tine could have been made up in ten min
ules, had he permitted it. A great deal of
rascality is, beyond doubt, carried on in Co
liunhia, and it requites ju?t such a man am
Bnrdell to delect and expose it.
The annua) election f<?r Mayor eortw off
on llie first Monday in April, Cant. Tradewell
the incumbent, Cant. John II. Putter
aon. And Col. William Myers and Dr. John
11. Boatwright are the candidates. Front
present indications, there is little doubt but
that Capt. Tradewell will be re elected by a
large majority. He has made a capita)
Mayor, and it will be a vcty difficult ta?k to
fin J a man who can defeat him.
A little girl, the daughter of Mr. John
Agnew, was burnt, by her clot Ires accidentally
taking fire on Ftiday last, and died on

resulting from clothes catching fire, that has

VIRGINIA MONUMENT. W? ilUVO the
following description of the Virginia Monument,
and Crawford's Statue of Washington,
in late papers :
" The Colossal Statue of Washington, ineluding
tho horse, is twenty feet high, length
of horse, from noso to the end of tnil, twenty-two
feet. The granite pedestal rests np
<>n a star-shaped elevation with six point*,
upon which are ultimately to stand colossal
statues of Lee, Mason, Nelson, Jefferson
and Patrick Henrv J Henry standing with
I his arms raised and extended, in the net of
speaking, while Jefferson, in the attitude of
earnest contemplation, holds a pen and the
Declaration of Independence, are now in
their positions ; the others are not yet com
pleted. The sixth statue is to l>e a most
charming ideal work, symbolical of the
Slate of Virginia. These figures, which are
of bronze, excited great admiration when
they were exhibited in Koine. The sides
and base of the pedestal are ornamented
with thirteen stars and wreaths, made of
bronze."
