Rides Abont Camden?Xo. 3.
We never tire of contemplating the views
and advantages of our old town, and venture,
once more, to invite our readers to accompany
us in an evening's ride.
Let us start at the bridge over Pinetree
? at the foot of Broad street. Was this ever
in town? Wide fields spread on every side,
and we behold not even the remains of a
populous ajid thriving town?the intersec-'
tions of wide streets only showing where a
town had been?but here onee.was the busy
mart of a thriving town. There to the
south stood the remains of Rudolph's store
?there, on the right. Broom's mill?there
the canal, projected in 1708, by Broom,
Kershaw. Brevard and others, to connect
Camden with Wateree river, and avoid the
heavy transportation over muddy roads, one
and-a-half miles to the boat landing ?
i i?J
We pass on north, on a nne, wiue, nnu
street; on the right stood, for generations,
the old :t Cornwallis House," overlooking
from its heights, the valley of the Wateree
until Sherman's vandals burnt it. There, on
the left, is the old Quaker BuryingGround?
just by there stood the old Presbyterian
Church, now marked bv the grave yard.
There sleep many of our old people. Within
that largo granite enclosure, with an iron
railing surmounting, lie the remains of the
gifted, accomplished Henry G. Nixon, cutoff
in early life, a victim, equally perhaps, to a
restless ambition and the ' code." A, little
further nerth and east stood '?the Church"?
the Colonial Government Church, uow marked
also by tbo cemetery?used ouly by the
descendants of the Kershaws and DuBoses.
q A little further west stood the old Method?ist
Church. We have ridden nearly half a
mile from the southern boundary of the
town, and ncft a house remains. All the
>- - oqpe populous squares aro now occupied by
eorn and cotton fields, and we ester upon a

L. DeSaussure, Col. Wm. Nixon, Ac. In
these fine squawa, with a single exception,
all the residences are gone, and cotton reigns
supreme. We arc over a half mile from the
creek run. and on'aH these fields, where well
cultivated, cotton is marvellously fine. We
have seen the rich cotton harvests of Georgia,
of the swamps, prairies and canebrakes
of Alabama, of the walnut hills and swamps
of Mississippi and Louisiana, and have never
seen finer cotton grow than on some of these
fields, and we are rejoiced to see it, for we
far prefer to sec the rich green of the cotton
fields varied by the white and purple blooms
rather than the leaning, tottering, crumbling
walls of decayed houses?saddest, gloomiest

noble Court House?all that w left in the)
lower end of town, of our former wealth, j
strength and position. We may not hero j
mention the sad thoughts suggested as we I
look upon its noble walls and fine propor- |
tions. We pass to what here our great j
City Square, the great mart, up to tfic great j
fire of 1829. The whole block was built in
city style?huge and tall brick stores with
residences above, two splendid hotels ou the ;
two southern earners, and from there up to j
the next bk>ck all built up with elegant1
stores. Fire swept All these, and it was pretty
well rebuilt, though partially?until more
recent events have given the town a still up-:
ward tendency.. The next large Mock runs j
up to Rutludge street, and the lower half of
It is pretty well deserted. We are now a
mile from the southern boundary of the town.!
and the town just now commences. The business
portion of the town is coiifiued to
Broad street, from a little below Kutlcdge
street to a little above DcKalb?compressed
into a smaller space?but beginning to assume
larger proportions worthy of our increasing
importance There are dry goods
establishments, groceries, drug stores, A:c.,
handsome in the exterior, attractive within,
and, as we know, especially in dry goods,
having as carefully selected stocks, and sold
as low as any in the State, Charleston and
Columbia not excepted.
We rise the bill in upper Broad street. |
and for a mile and a halt that noble street
- _t 11 i. i _ rr i.?!. i i
ttretciies on uuuu^n uu^-iu^n, i\hkwih?u
and Hobkirk. We see much to interest and
attract us here, all looking fresh, life-like and
I
tasteful?hut our province is not to touch
upon private grounds, and we make no mention
of any of these charming residences
Other than that at the crown of the first elevation
ou Oehalh -trccf .-till stands in complete
preservation, house and grounds in

Lafayette was received and entertained the ^
guest of the totvn. Then, it was tjic family ;
residence of Col. John Carter?Xow. of .Mr. i
James Dunlap. <
We ride on through the public squares
between spacious and handsomely ornamented
private grounds and even on Broad street,
see attractive private residences, surrounded
by lota ii^the sandhills, of cotton, ranging in
sizg from five to twenty acres, all of which pro
raise a bale of cotton to the acre?a happy
combination of the ornamental and useful,
for nothing is prettier than a well cultivated
cotton field, and surely, in this section, nothing
more profitable. We pass, on our right,
the valley where Kirkwood with his Maryland
horses, Washington with his sabres,
manfully resisted the onslaught of the impetuous
Britons up the heights of Hobkirk
to tho crown where Greene, with his cannon,
belched forth destruction to the hosts that
crowded on him. We can but pause here
and survey the beautiful valley that lies in
the south. For miles beyond the town wc
see the rioh valley of the Wateree. capable
itself, of supporting } State, and we arc
tempted here, to stay our ride, to think of j
all the wealth undeveloped that lies boforc
us in that valley, and all along Pinctree?
are tempted too, to consider the great results
of that battle of Hobkirk, and to pay a tribute
to that great old soldier, Greene?bathe
sun has sunk to rest, and the hues of t he
clouds, lit with golden, purple, crimson, blue,
arc deadening to a leaden hue. and summer
twilight is almost upon us. We drive on. and
a little beyond llobkirk reach the northern
boundary of Camden; ere the softening light
fades away, we turn to the left, and soon
reach an eminence that overlooks Hobkirk^
where you can look down upon all the bright
homes of Hobkirk, Kirkwood and Camden.
Here we stop and gaze until sight fails us?
every spot within view affording thrilling
memories and suggesting thoughts as varying
as the shifting scenes given by the dying
light?but our closing thoughts are practical
as wc exclaim, oh, for a home on this high
hill, ahovc aud removed from all impurities
aud rude cantacts, and oh, for a farm in
these inviting vallies.

Session in Camden on \v odnesaay ana i uursday,
the 23rd ancfotth insts.
The meeting was a very pleasant and
gratirying one. We aro informed that it was
the largest assemblage of representatives

i jnermiioed meinboratell us that the mateaial
U<ti wuAi m'^pisiiiau ve-mmi ^
na.
The business of the ("Irnnd Division was
pleasantly and hajnioniously transacted.?
Odd Fellows' hall was erowded during the
entire session by the delegates and visiting
members.
We are pleased to state, by authority,
that tho delegates were delighted with the
old time hospitality with which they were
entertained here?this would be a grateful
fact, common to all the towns in .South Oaro
lina, but we aro happy to record their observations
upon other points very grateful to
us and congenial with our own views. Many
delegates from different portions of the State
remarked that while many of the towns of the
State cychibit greater evidence of business
advancement and prosperity, they know no
town in the State where there is greater attention
paid to the couifort and improvement
of homes. The wide streets, shady groves,
handsome shrubbery, spacious premises of
upper Camden, Kirkwood and Hobkirk,
wore subjects of constant remark and admiration,
while we doubt not that within the in.
ner circles of these homes old friendships have
been ceuiCntcd anew and new friendships
formed which add to the value of life's possessions.
On Thursday a public meeting was held
in the grove of the Orphan Society Academy,
which was well attended and passed off in a
very agreeable and satisfactory manuor. At
10 p. m., a procession was formed at.Temperance
Ilall by Watcree Division, No. 9,
which marched down Broad street to Odd
Fellows Hall where they received the (Irand
Division and visiting subordinate Divisions,
and escorted them to the grove. Comfortable
scats were provided in the pleasant
shade for the audience, while the officers of
Grand Division, orators, &c., were accommodated
on a spacious platform. The Palmetto
Cornet Band kindly favored the audience
with insnirin? strains, and the pleasing inter
t ...0
ludes were much enjoyed.
tJ. W. P., A. M. Kennedy, presided over1
the meeting and introduced the speakers,
Jn his introductory remarks lie informed the \
audicnco the order now numbers in this
nonvlv #1, rnn flimw.ind : roirretti*?sr that J
so little lias been ilone. Sic. Well, all tilings
considered, it is but little, but to most men
it would be well, perhaps, it tliey could but
return "the talent entrusted to them" "fold-1
cd away in a napkin," neither increased or
diminished, not wasted or squandered, it is
little when compared to what the enemies)
of temperance have done. Temperance hi
South Carolina during the last year has made j
sober men of a few drunkards, lias kept more
from sliding down the facile bill of vice, has
gladdened and healed a few sad hearts, has j
brightened a few homes, has lilted a lew no. j
hie. responsible souls from the mire and j
'slough of despond" up to tho bright piano
tud elevated table land of intellectual, moral
md physical health. While the enemies ol ,
temperance have during the same period
sent many victims to bloody graves, have |
soiled, polluted and marred forever many a
fair humnrt casket, and the bright immortal
jewels within, broken many a pure and noble
spirit meant for better things, and desolated
many homos, where every promise of
joy and happiness had loved to Cluster; indeed,
temperance has done little when compared
Uf what intemperance has done.
Our esteemed fellow-citizen, Judge Lcitner,
was first introduced, and for an hour
kept his audience charmed with an elaborate
and eloquently prepared oration. "The pearls
at random strung" forming the crown and
s^eet adornments of temperance, formed a
fearlul and startling contrast to tl\p wretched,
withering serpents and scorpions of
mad intemperance. It was a thoughtful)
I clear, educational essay on temperance, delivered.
"however, in the earnest and forcible
sty?# of our well known and esteemed friend.
rrof. Jas. II. Carlisle was then introduced,
and we can pay no higher compliment
tn ln's sneooh than to sav that it fully came
-r ?
up to his reputation, and the expectation of
his friends. Wo have several times before
hung enraptured upon the "thoughts that
breathe and words" that burn" falling from
the lips of Prof. Carlisle. We have heard
him speak on different subjects and always
with delight?ho*is one the fullest men and
profoundest thinkers in the State. Tt has
been many years since we have heard him,
and we deem him improved in a point which
age and mellowed ripeness do not generally
improve. Hitherto if we had fancied a
fault in so complete a lecturer, it was the
absence of glow and enthusiasm in the nierc
expression of his thoughts. On this occasion
his energy and enthusiasm, though
dignified and chaste, were fully equal to the
occasion.
Ilis analysis of the "anima" of man, thai
other than physical existence, that nature
which aspires to the high and noble, 01
grovels to the low and debased, that lifts
men to the plane of the gods or. hurls their
to the pit of devils. His views of the ne
cessity to man of a condition of raptnre. ex
istence out of self, cxtacy which must be founc
either in the paths of religion and virtue 01
, in the narcotizing practices of vice, furnish
cd a most w?|pome and refreshing and intel
lcctual treat.

Unification.
Politics are alike unprofitable and uncongenial
to the those who have neither the
Mioir views iinou the
pru?|?vi? w.
minds and action of others, nor the facility
for change rendering them ready to fall into
grooves of expediency shaped by others.
The day when principles of government
could be discussed and elucidated, in this
Western world, has long been merged into
the dark, murky night of party councils.
It is idle for the Northern people to insist,
it is false and wicked for the Southern people
to profess, that the principles which-tho
Southern mind grasped and cherished as
true and eternal have been whipped out of
grown and stalwart men.
If there ever be wholosomo unification between
North and South, it must be upon
grounds of principles and policy consistent
with material respect, there seems now to be
no immediate prospect of any such happy
reconcilement, and for the true Southern
people thcro seems to he left ou'.y the duty
bravely to endure.
' Still chant the same grand anthem,
The beautiful and great;
Tis glorious to sutler,
'Tis majesty to wait."
In the trying questions submitted to tho

uiciit arc not involved at all; there is 110 opportunity
offerd to assert those principles
theso questions present but a matter of policy.
but just there coines the groat question
of /?incipfr. before we can consider the /mlia/
of modern political propositions?not principles
of government, for no voice of ours
can resurrect them froTli their bloody tomb
but individual principles of personal integrity
and honesty.
It is good and honest policy to ncknoivl
edge that the Ucpublican party have control
of this great government. It is, probably,
good and honest policy to forego any opposition
t<> that party?certainly it is ?-o, if the
result of that opposition bo but to concentrate
their fortes and energies and excite
their bitter partisan hostility. It is good
and Inmost policy to endeavor to conciliate
ihcin by leaving them to nianagc their government
without our fruitless interference. It
is good and honest policy to join them, on
any fit opportunity, in nnv effort to administer
the government <>/' th?j f(*pnhl!ran parti/
I .
Ifmcstly, fairly and intelligently. There is
desertion of political principles in all
surely there is. no departure from pcrijjal
integrity, but when the Southern man
l-fequired, as he is required, to falsify his
record, to desecrate the graves of his dead ^
Comrades, to belie his principles, to avow a ^
creed, which is repugnant to his every conception
of constitutional, political and national ^
law, then he can, as an honest man, but fold s
Iris arms and submit to his fate, saying, "pun- v
,jsh as you will, I will obey the law, but T a
'frill not worship at its shrine." 1
\ It would seem that such fealty to law
iod conscience would inspire greater j
j|onfidcnce than any enforced profession of i
' ? 1
.fealty to party, but it is not so?a:i proposals
in aid the republican party to restore good

and importance. The merchants evince considerable

A Washington letter of Thursday last,
<ays: General Kershaw, in conversation
to-day, adverting to the condition of his own
3tate of South Carolina, expressed hopeful
views, and remarked that pleasant relations
now generally subsisted between the whites
xnd the blacks. Mr. Sims, Mr. PorteT and
Glenoral Kershaw, all called on the atforneygencral
to-day, with whom they had an
agreeable interview. They called the attention
of the attorney-general to the profound
auiet which has prevailed in the State of
South Carolina for so long a time, and assured
him of the earnest desire of the people
for whom they spoke to maintain friendly
relations with the blacks and with tire general
government, only asking that their
rights and liberties as citizens be respectdd.
They then suggested to the attorney-general
that the pardon of the remaining citizens of I
Sontli Carolina, now confined in the "Albany j
penitentiary for
KU-KLUX OVfF.NCFS
would be an act of clemency which would
be appreciated by those concerned and their
families and friends, and would tend to I
strengthen the government. They also spoke
of the indictments still pending in the Federal
Courts of South Carolina against cer
tain citizens on account of alleged Kp-Kdux
offences, and asked that the partita have an
assurance that they would not be brought to
trial The number of these indictment^ is
about five hundred. The attorney general,
in his reply, abstained from giving any definite
promise as to what the future policy of
the government would be in respect to the
Ku-Klux Offenders now confined or those
over whom indictments arc still pending.?
He, hofrever, concurred iu the opinion of
his visitors that a comparative quiet baJ for
some- time prevailed in South Carolina as
well as in Mississippi and other States where
the Ru Klox had obtained a foot hold. He
informed them that the. government had no
desire tp be vindictive, but tvas unswerving
in its determination to vindicate the majesty
of the'hw. It wds not-at'ail improbable
that if no further outbreaks occurred t he
government would stay its band. Altogether
the impression produced by the attorney
rrpnoriil's remarks, was that if things contin
O ; i w
uc as now indicated, parties need not be
alarmed.

Ciuip Prospects in Ei'Ropfe.?Tho crop
re porta from ali parts of Europe arc moresat
isfitctory, and it Is now confidently antici*
patcd that the deficiency in England ^nd
other countries will he less than was regarded
as probable a month or six weeks ago? In
England, tit the very bast, however, the
wheat harvest , notwithstanding the improved
weather, must fall considerably below the
reduced average of last year, with the result
rendering England still more dependent, on
foreign countries for food supplies. Yet it
is u remarkable fact, and one which
.1- t c?:..t ?*:??
unihi nit*??* IUU utuwunui wpc4mM?/iio u? ?*iv
natural laws of trade when not interfered
with by legislation,*that the arrivals of
foreign grain are no regular and large that the
price of wheat is now somewhat lower in
Knglan i than it waif a year ago. . .,
An Important Decision.?An important
and interesting ease was heard Saturday
evening in chambers by Judge Choke
in this city, incidental)^ defining the rights of
property exemption under the homestead law.
The debtor had disposed at auction of certain
property held to be exempt from levy and |
execution, arid the proceeds of the sale,
were attached in the hands of the auctioner
to satisfy the claims of a creditor. Judge
Cooke decided in substance that the-'money
arising from the snle of snefc property coifld
not be attached by reason of the property ex-1
empt ion.:? Union- Ihrnld.
Trpi'kr Law.?The Judges appear to be
enforcing the Tupper liquor-law all over the
State, and, as a oonscqueneo, liquor-sellers i
generally are very much exercised upon the
subject. Judge Maher, at Colleton, last
week, charged the grand jury that a grog
shop, with a few bundles of fodder and a.
mattress thrown in a corner, did not constitute
a tavern, according to his construction of the
law ; that a quart license did not mean that
they could sell one pint and a half; but
that the letter and spirit of the law must bo
obeyed, or the offenders might expect to
suffer its full penalties.
