In WhoAt Oin the South OtfeUt.
In theat tlraea of trouble and public anxiotT.
il is but natural that ihe weaker section
honld glance over her galasy of men of
talent, and east about for the great guiding
spirits that are to stand a* helmsmen when
. the breakers of fanaticism threaten to over
ride and submerge that old kirk, built by
patriot hands, and launched by pilgrim patriots,
the Constitution.
The South has many great spirits, good
and trua, and many who, from superior endowments,
large experience, unfaltering
devotion to Southern interests, unflinching
loyalty to constitutional behests, equality
of individual rights, and democratic prerogatives,
mark them as culminating stars in
the twilight of befogged elements.
In the person of lion. Jefferson Davis, of
Mississippi, the South has a tower of strength,
and a foetnan worthy of the steel of any
knight. He is the great vindicator, the uncompromising
defender and fearless advocate
of Southern institutions, lie is the
Polar star of the cotton firmament, and upon
his shoulders rests the fulcrum of strict
construction construed. Happily, he has
an able, efficient and lova) colleague, Hon.
Albert O. Urown. At the present we must
concede the fact that Mississippi stands unti
vailed in the United Slates Senate. Hon.
James Green, of Missouri, comparatively a
young man and a young Senator, has suddenly
burst upon the public mind like a
comet of the first magnitude, sweeping in its
celestial circuit cohesive bodies, grinding to
powder moon-like satellites, and engulphing
* Little Giants." lie is the great slavery
eeelinel of the Western Reserve.
Hon. James 11. Hammond, of S. C? with
one bold stroke of Senatorial eloquence,
bounds like the chamois over the ragged and
slippery steeps of trudging sentimentality
and political trickery, and leaps into the ai
roost inaccessible niche occupied by Calhoun,
showing himself the worthy representative
of that great people of the Palmetto State.
Ho is the bold champion of ami compromise
and anti-concession. Hon. R M. T. Hunter,
ot Va., the Madison of his day, the peer of
Calhoun, and his great representative ; the
representative of the great Roman State of
the Republic?the cmdle of American lil>er
tv?the birth place of Washington, Jefferson,
and religious freedom ; and the represetita
tive of a Stato holding and practising the
proudest and most expressive of all mottoes
" Sic Semper Tyrannis."
Mr. Ilunter is the model of American
statesmen : a profound logician, an eloquent
and bold debater, a thorough scholar, a
financier of the Gallatin school, an expert
draughtsman and courteous gentleman. litis
the counterpart of Jcffoonian LMuocra
CTlion.
Robert Toombs, of Georgia, the Mu
rat of the Senate?the iinjretuous and nervous
declaimer?a profound thinker?the
impassioned orator?the brilliant meteor and
modern Saladin.
Hon. J. P. Renj-uuin. of Louisiana, the
ablest jurist of his day?the didaclician of
constitutional law. the learner! and deep
statesman, and the dissector of Sewardism.
Hon. A. II. Stephens, of Ga.; the profoundest
thinker of the age?the astute par
limentarian?the eloquent and sarcastic ad
vocal ?the intrepid champion of cnn?litu
tional equality, and tho atitipode of dema

Lion. L. M. Keitt, of S.C? the incorrupti
ble metaphysician?the unyielding exponent
of Southern rights?the clus-ic logician?the
embodiment of chivalry, and a true Representative
of his Huguenot fathers.
There are others just coming into notice,
as such men as Garnett, of Ya., Atkins, of
Tenn., and Gen. R. Davis, of Miss. Resides,
there are many other great spirits that pub

The Oindnuati Week! J Gazette, of March
18, contain* the following paragraph, which
baa made the round of aotne country paper*,
and haa revetal times, especially in the
New bury port Herald, been ably refuted:
** Occupation op trb Jkws.?It I* a tin
gular fact, revealed in the last census of the
United State*, that while there are seven
hundred thousand Jews in this eountry, only
one person who is a Jew is registered as
a farmer. So literally is the decree of their
dispersion fulfilled/that they are strangers to
that occupation which, above all others, im
Kites a resting place and a home. M For.
>, 1 will command and I will sifi the house
of Isarel among all natrons." 'lire Jews are
1.. ~l 4_ .1 SI ?I .1
.. MOV mviKiiru vi> um tuil wuoifl tliey
Are f *und, but reedy on en instant to change
their abode. In California taey follow the
universal rule. In all of the towns they are
found in large numbers. They nearly monopolize
the retail business of the country.
We have never known of a Jew who was en
gaged in mining, although there may be
many such so occupied."
To the first statement, that but one Isra
elite in the United States is occupied in
farming, we reply that it is false. At the
same tune we cannot repress our surprise at
the bold ignorant* of the real condition of
the Israelite, which states this evident un
truth. For, there are many 'Jews farmers in
New Jersey and some in the West. Besides,
not a few are proprietors of real estate.?
That Isarel is dispersed upon the face of the
earth, is the Lord's decree, and there are
tew we think, who will need the illustrations
and proofs of the writer of the above paragraph,
to assure them of this fact. Still, the
Israelites are far fmm being "strangers to
that occupation, which, above all others, itn
flies a resting place and home!" In Fiance.
Germany, Ac. thou sands of Israelites are
farmers, and perhaps few villages could be
found where each Israelite does not possess
' sotne fields, fiom which to raise his wheat,
corn, potatoes, ?fcc.
The next statement gravely assure* us that
the "Jews are traders, and not attached to
the soil where they are found, hut ready, on
the instant, to change their abode." Anyone
having a knowledge of history, and who
has but attentively read the accounts of the
banishment of the Israelites from different
countries in the mediaeval ages will at once
perceive the gross untruth of this sentence,
and the " brass" which is necessary to pub
lislt false slander like this. The Israelites
suffered themselves to be ground down by
the most oppressive laws, they suffered them
selves to be chained to the lot of a slave,
rather than leave their second home in Por
tugal. This nation, ** that is ready on the
instant 'to change iu abode," offered enormous
stuns for the privilege to remain in
Spain, when Christian priests, prelates of
the cr?y?*t the mild, gentle and im?*t Chris
tiau Inquisition drove them, with their fami
lie*, from ii'irn loVcil homes, from the country
wlu?se rights they had defended as soldiers,
whose coffers they had enriched as
merchants, whose literature and art they
had developed *as poets and painters. It
were useless to cite other instances.

Congressional?The Lkcompton Constitution
Rejected.?In the Senate, to day,
the army bill was passed, with the substitution
of two for four regiments, exclusive of
that for Texas. The Kansas hill, as passed
by the House, was received, and Mr. Green,
of Missouri, moved thai the Senate disagree
to the amendment. The motion n ill be con- 1
tidered to-morrow.
In the House, Mr. Stenhens. of Georrria.
had scarcely moved to take tip the Kali-as ,
Hill, when Mr. Giddings, of Ohio, objected
to the second tending. In such cases, by
the rule* of the House, the question must be
taken on the rejection of the bill. This was
disagreed to, by a vote of 187 to 05. Mr. 1
Quit man. of Mississippi, then offered, as a I
Mibstitn'e. the Senate Hill, with the exception <
?f the Pugh and Green provisos, declaring ,
thai the people have the tight to amend the |
Constitution. This was defeated by a vote
i>f 260 to 72. The vote was then taken on
Mr. Crittenden's amendment as a substitute,
and as amended by the anti Lecompton portion
of the Democrats in the late conference.
This was carried by eight majority. This
amendment provides for the admission of
Kansas, but refers the Constitution to the
people for their vote ; if it Ire rejected, then
a convention is to Ire orbed to form a new
constitution, and as soon as the latter shall
Ire approved, the President is to issue a pro
clamation, and Kansas be admitted without
fmther action by Congress. The Home theu
adjourned.
True following sensible hints upon advertising.
we copv from a Boston exchange, and
we would call the special attention of business
men geuerally to its {tlaiu-s|tokcn remark*
:
"It is a certain principle in the hu*in?ss

Lxsst medium for attracting the attention of
the public which are the l**t in other res|>ects.
The mere numlxo* of 4 circulation '
Jo not afford the true teat by which to meaaure
the relative value of different paper* a*
sbnnnela for advertising ; if it were so. the
most disreputable sheets would he those that
would present the strongest claims. We do
not profess to explain the philosophy of the
ihii.g, but it is certainly the truth."
Wealth of the United States.?The
aggregate wealth of the United States
amounts to $12,000,000,000, and the population
is 24,000,000 of souls. The wealth
divided by the population, gives $400 to
each person, young and old ; and, counting
five persons to each family, it would give the
handsome liule fortune of $2,600 to every
family of the republic, not excluding the
slaves.*; j?'

A Word to " Vivacity"
Mr. Bnterprise?1 recognize, in the arti
cle in the last Anderson True Carolinian
signod M Vivacitt," the same contemptible
scribbler who recently penned a lying article
respecting a trip which the author had
made to Greenville. I regretted, Mr. Editor,
that you took any notice of it whatever, as
it gave to the author some notoriety,which was
his only object in writing what he di 1 ?
Not content with having intentionally belied
the village of Greenville, he now attempts
to m.-ike small fun of some of her citizens,
by characterising them as "swell-heads."?
Now, Vivacity," perhaps, imagines that
his real name is unknown in Greenville.?
(llowbeit. it mat be difficult to arrive at a
very definite knowledge of what bis original
naine may have l>een.) The fact of knowing
his name should deter me from noticing him,
hut as Ire lias found his wny into the papers,
he should be shown a way out. Vh hilst
iving in this community, he was known by
irnny names. Upon his Irst arrival here,
nany years ago, he was familiarly known
is the " Edgefield Ghost." How, or by
what means be obtained this name, Mr.
Editor, I know not; suffice it to say,he wore
he honors of it for several years. He was
lubsequently called "John G. Winter," from
i strange propensity which he had for enterng
into the business of a " Broker." His

consider ibis matter, was put down at twenty-five
thousand dollars. A few citizens
have already subscribed sixteen thousand
dollars of this amount, and to the rest of the
Distrtcl is left the balance?nine thousand
dollar*. This must be made up amongst us.
And at once. The canvass of the* State in
general, thus far inade, proves that it will
require every dollar of what can he elsewhere
raised to make up the balance of the
one hundred thousand dollars, and unless we I
are willing to see the euterp?i*e fail, ohr cit- j
iivns must make up the amount reasonably |
ipffarded as their share. We have until th* I
first of May tu secure it in bond* nnd cash.
At that time the Convention called for the 1
organization of the institution, will meet at
Greenville, and it it not unlikely that the I
opportunity having been ifiven ua to secure
its location among us, and we having failed I
to embrace it, there will be other applicants
for an advantage which, it is everywhere
felt, is, to a town of our size, particularly
with its institutions of learning, of incalculable
value.
M v own duty requires me to canvass other
parts of the State during the interval.?
If 1 have opportunity, I will gladly avail
mvself of it, to call Upon any citizens of the
District. The Committee of twenty-five,
appointed to perform this duty at the District
meeting, will, doubtless, see as many of
the citizens as possible. Ye*, may I not
hope that such an interest is felt in this mi'ter
that every citizen, without waiting to bo
culled on, will at once cotne forward and
contiibute to the utmost of his ability.?
Bonds will be taken, when it is not convenient
to pay cash, payable in two in>tnb
ments, the first on the first of January,
1859, the second on the first of January,
1860, drawing interest from the first of January
la.?t. They will be received bv any
member of the Committee of twenty five.
