Campbell, Sir : The undersigned committee ir behalf of a large and respectable portion of your fellow citizens of this district, tender to you a public dinner at as early a period as will best suit your convenience. It is a slight testimony of the high consideration which they entertain lor you personally ahd for the zeal and ability evinced by you in the discharge of your public duties, which have been not less honorable to yourself than beneficial to your , country. We cannot but express one regret at your determination of quitting the councils of your country at so interesting a crisis in her history. But we trust that your retiring from the sphere which your urbane and courteous manners, and true Southern principles have highly adorned, will but give an opportunity ofeleva ting you to another not less distinguished. With great respect and esteem, your obedient sen-ants, \VM. T. ELLERBE, ClCmn. 13. K. Henegan, C. W. Dudly, James E. David, John M'Queen, William A. Ervin, W. Crosland, E. L. Henegan, L. E.

Thomas, Jesse Peterkin. August 1S3G. Gentlemen, 1 have just received your communication in behalf of a portion of my fellow citizens (tendering me a public dinner as a testimonial of their personal kindness, and approbation of my course as their Representative. A testimonial peculiarly gratifying to my feelings as emanating from my neighbors and earliest acquaintances who have been familiarly acquainted with mv character and conduct in all the different relations of lite. My long absence from home renders it necessary to devote a few weeks to my domestic arrangements and I could no* conveniently accept the honor tendered at an earlier day than the first Monday in September.. Be pleased Gentlemen to convey to those in whose behalf you act my grateful acknowl- j odgeinents for their kindness and approbation, and accept for yourselves persoualiy my i thanks for the acceptable and complimentary manner in which you have discharged the trust confided to you. With feelings of great respect and esteem I am, Gentlemen, your obedient servant. I ROBERT B. CAMPBELL Maj. W. T. Ellerbe and others Committee in behalf of a portion of the citizens of Marl borough. Hon. Joel R. Poinsett is announced in the i Georgetown Union as a Candidate for Congress in thai District. .Candidate for Governor if <S\ Carolina. In answer to a letter from Laurens soliciting Col. P. M. Butler to ' allow his name to be used as a candidate tor Governor," he rbplies " I hold this to be an office that no citizen of the State has a right to decline, prodded the people tjiink him qualified." jf ."V\ Major Miller of the Texian army who was eonlined at Matainoras is said in some of the papers to have made liis escape by dressing himself as an old man, and thus eluding the vigilance of his keeper. The bills for the last public dinner of the Lord Mayor of London amounted to about $(50,000. * An attempt was recently made to burn the City Hall of N. York, by a fellow who had obtained access into the common pleas court room. The fire was discovered in time to extinguish it. The miscreant probably wished to destroy some records contained in the buildin g. The Niagara Falls Journal of the ISfh inst. > says that there had been 2000 visiters there during the two proceeding weeks* The time will soon be when 20,000 will not be an uncommon number. In the sentiment of the following paragraph copied from the A'eio York Express we lully concur. It ought to be engraved over the door of every Legislative llall, and Court House and College Hall and School room, and we had almost said every church in the land. 44 If there be any one fact which history and observation clearly prove, it is this, t^at the. freer a government, the more strictly must the laws that the people make, be enforced, and the hnftrr in tref ths> nnlirr hr tn Ptlitrrrp iht'tu " I A case for the lawyers. A workman onpaged to clear out a cellar in Baltimore for ' * the dirt which should bo taken out. While at work he found a jar containing a quantity of gold and silver, which he claims under the contract. The owner of the cellar insists this is no part of the dirt. So the parties have gone to law about it. It is said that about one million and a half of bushels of corn and rye axe used in making whiskey in the city of Is?. York and Brooklyn and Viciniity in the course of one year. \Y hile Gov. Mason of Michigan and Gen. Boynton of Ohio were recently dining at the same table in a public house in Detroit, the Governor took offence at some remark of Gen. B's'about the Michigan boundary question, and aimed a blow at him with carving knife. Gen. B. warded off the blow, wrenched the knife from his antagonist, three hiin on the floor, when he held liim down with his foot till he tore off his coat; he then threw him into the street and inflicted a fla^elation with a horse whip. So says the newspaper account. Jamas Milling, son of Mr. William Milling, near Yorkville was killed by lightning on the lind instant. The abolitionists publish a Quarterly Magazine, said to be neatly printed, and tilled (as we gather from the extracts which we have seen) with the virulent vituperation so characteristic of these philanthropists. Extracts from Mr. Madison's Will, dated April 15,1835. "I give all my personal estate of every description, ornamental as well as useful, except as hereinafter otherwise given, to my dear wife: proper use of them, but subject to the quali lie at ion in the succeeding clause. Considering the peculiarity and magnitude of the occasioi which produced the Convention at Philadel phia in 17K7, the characters who composed it the Constitution which resulted from their de liberations, its effects during a trial of so man; years on the people living under it, and th interest it has inspired among the friends u free government, it is not an unreasonable in ference that a careful and extended report e the proceedings and discussions of that bod) which were with closed doors, by a rnembe who was constant in his attendance, will bi particularly gratifying to the people of the Uni ted States, and to all who take an interest ii the progress of political science and the causi of true liberty. It is my desire that the repor as made hv me should he published under he authority and direct'on; and, as the public a tion may yield a considerable amount beyoiu the necessary expenses thereof, I give the net proceeds thereof to my wife, charged with tin following J iCgacics, to be paid out of that fun< only," &c. &c. It appears that Rathbun, the Buffalo spccu later and forger, had one forged note oiotu kuiulr?d thousand dollars, discounted at the isank the Lnited states m tins city. Phil. Xi iz. Anions the improvements of tire presen day it is not unworthy to notice the whosolt removal ol" a building with its stores and theii contents, families, and the business of th( whole interior progressing as usual.

The Louisiana Advertiser, says that the recent election ot'that state for members of the Legislature has resulted as follows: Senators. Representatives. Whigs 12, Whigs 21 Administration 4, Administration 20 Wliig majority on joint bollot, six. A man named Hiram Norto, in Forsythi county (i a. who had sustained a good character, without anv aonarent cause killed his wife on tiic 30th uit. with an a\c, and then drowned himself. He was beyond doubt deranged. A "Union Society of Colored persons" lately held a meeting in Cincinnati and passed a set of resolutions among which we see the following : Resoled, That the publication of the Philanthropist and other Abolition papers and tracts in this city, have had and we believe will continue to have, an injurious and prejudicial effect on the interests and well-being o; the colored population. Resolml, That if Mr. J?irney and his associates have, as they pretend, the well-being o: the colored race at heart, they will cease theii misguided efforts here, and leave us as the) found us, to*work out our own salvation. Rnnar};ab?e Ph'-nummon.?Gn Friday evening, 29th ult about 11 o'clock, the family o: Mrs. Foath, of this city, were startled anc somewhat alarmed by the heavy fall of a brilliant luminous body, apparently within a few feet of the house. The oocurrence was atj tended by a sort of hissing noise, anil rcseinbling the rattling of a shower of hail on the roof. On arriving at the spot, which was sc well defined as not to be mistaken, a compacl mass of stone and vegetable bitumen was found, which on examination, left no doubt o its being of meteoric orgin. The weight o; the mass was about fixe lbs. It must hav< been a detached portion of an extensive meteor. similar to that which traversed our atmos _i _ r At - a* ..i j pjicrc a iew years since, uie particulars o 1 which were published in SiHiman's Journal and portions of which fell to the earth in vari ous parts of the United States. The frag rnent which fell 011 Friday evening, bears < striking resemblance to portions of this mete oric body, which are yet to be found in the possession of scientilic individuals. .Voririch {Conn.)

Our climate is congenial to the habits of tin silk worm, and our soil well adapted to the growth of the mulberry of every description It thrives in any of our soils and neithci drought or heavy rains seem to have anv dele terious influence ujkui it. Tiie Morns MuL'icaulis, or Chinese mul berry was introduced here about two yean since, by the Rev. David Brown, and the;, have multiplied almost beyond example. Scv era} of our enterprising citizens have followei his example, among whom we name I)r. An derson, M. H. Tucker, Tlios Douglas, an< John Drysdale, Msqrs. From a few plant: several hundred thousand have beenproducee and in tin? course of a few years an article o export themselves. As an instance of tin rapid growth of the mulberry here we wi! mention that the Moras Multicauris fron layers, have grown an average height of si: feet since March last, and white mulberry ha; grown nearly five feet in the same period o time, from the seed. There can be no doubt of the profitableness; of the silk culture, and it only wants enterprise and industry to ensure success. We are in formed that the attention of several northeri capitalists of considerable enperience in thi; culture, has been attracted towards Eas Florida, with a view of investing a portion o their capital in this branch of business, and a: soon as our Indian difficulties are over, we 111a; expect our territory to improve to an unexani pled degree.
