Lucifer Matches. We lately copied a par- ' agraph from an exchange paper which stated' that a box of these matches ignited, upon be- j jng opened. A similar occurrence took place j in one end of the building in which our office is j kept last week. Aboxcontaininglucifermatch- J es had been partly immersed In water on board the boat on which it was brought up the river. As soon as it was opened and fresh air was admitted, it began to smoke and would evidently have kindled a fire in very few seconds if let alone. May not many of the fires ascribed to incendiaries originate in the spontaneous combustion of these and other matches ] Mr. Van Buren.

Tuc Elections.?In Missouri Mr. Boggs i the Van Burcn candidate has been elected J Governor by a majority of 5 or 6 hundred over j (Jen. Ashley the Whigcandidate. The Van 1 Buren candidates for Congress, Messrs. Ilarri- j son and Miller are also'elected. The State i is considered decided for Van Buren.

J Arkansas has gone for Van Burcn. Ifer j Representatfves and her two Senators will, j of course be of the same politics. Louisiana and Alabama are claimed with great confidence by both parties. Common School Assistant.?We noticed this periodical when it firsr appeared. It is a i neatly printed and well conducted periodical, ! issued niontldy at Albany, X. V. at the von' j low price of 50 cents per annum. Ever)' teacher and every trustee of every school in the country ought to read it. Its object is the improvement of common Schools, but the teacher of any School or Accademy would derive hints from it that would much more than compensate for the trifling expense. Indeed we think I most parents, who pay any attention at all to the education oft heir children ought to take it. A couple of fellows named Smith and Bell I 41 nrv>n \f?> Tfinnnu A . | jecenuy llidUU an anuvn Ii|>uu.ut. ? ... Terr}', one of the Editors of the Danville (Ya.) { Reporter, for his having publicly e.\}>osed the j delinquencies of a contractor for carrying the mail, who was brother to one of the assailants, j and brotherinlaw to the othor. One of them J knocked him down, unarmed, with a club and j continued to beat him with the same instrument, | while the ether stood by with a cocked pistol j in each hand, belching forth oaths that he j would kill any man who should attempt to in- ! terfere. A number of j>ersone however did interfere, and the savage actually did shoot at j one of them, but owing to a sudden movement of his body at the instant of firing, the ball only grazed his skin. It was aimed at his heart. The fellows are in Jail. The Columbia Telescope says: We learn from an intelligent gentleman just from the South, that according to the latest advices received in New Orleans, Gen. Games had not crossed the Sabine. APPEAL IN BEHALF OF THE GREAT RAIL ROAD TO THE PEOPLE OF SOUTH CAROLINA. On the third Monday in October vexU Subcriptions will be opened for the Stock of the Louisville, Cincinnati and Charleston RailJtoad. Every citizen should subscribe for one or more share*, and all who can attord it should i subscribe liberaUy. Only Five Dollars is to ! be paid on each share, at the time of subscribing, and this will be returned should the ' scheme fail. The Shares are One Hundred Dollars each; and after paying the first five dollars, no more will be required, unless the plan succeeds; and then only in small amounts at such long intervals, that no subscriber can be put to any inconvenience, in making his pav- ' ments. Before the whole amount can be call- j ed for, & part of the Road, within the State, i will be made, of which every one will feel the I benefits. This Great Work will enrich the whole State. Every man will be able to get his crop to market, and to procure his supplies, 1 % * * r??Aonn* On() tiriil] cneaper 2qq (juicner uwu ot pujodt, mm nm be able to travel in two days, as far as he can now in ten. The money subscribed will be spent at home, there will be an increased demand for all kinds of labor, and we shall have markets almost at our own doors, for all our productions. Lands will increase in value? j Villages will spring up in every direction, and i the whole country be enriched. The proposed Union of the South with the West, will add to the wealth and prosperity of the whole country, and every part of it. It will form a Bond .of Union among these Sta'es, which. will give Safety to our Property* and Security to our In* stituticms. Let the people remember that this may be the only opportunity they inay ever have to get a share in this Stock.?Every man has now a fair chance to share equally, in all the benefits of this Company. If they neglect this opportunity, it will be forever lost. Any man may give up his share, even after subscribing," if he chooses to forfeit his first payment. The risk of loss therefore, is very small, while the gain may be Very great. By advancing only One Hundred Dollars, a man will secure to himself the privilege of taking Twenty Shares in the Company, which may eventually enable him to realize a clear profit of perhaps a ?1000, or more. We call upon you, then, Fellow-cwizens, to come forward and 6upport a 6chcine, which will make your beloved State great and prosperous, and your < children happy. Let 110 man who loves his ' country, fail to enroll his name on the list of the supporters of this great patriotic work. Commissioners will be appointed in each Dis- } trict, to receive subscriptions, but any one may < at any time, go to the Clerk of the Court arid ( put down his name for as many shares as he ( wishes, paying five dollars on each, and that , officer will take the proper steps, to secure j him the number of shares he may subscribe for. The honor of South-Carolina, and best interests of her people required that this work * should not fail. Let us, one and all, then put 1 our shoulder to the wheel, and our success ! 1 is sure.

Duelling.?The Trench court ot uassation y recently decided that the inothc r of a young t man killed in a duel, could maintain an action j. for damages against his antagonist. A right- j eous decision in every point of view, and one x that will go far, we hope, to the suppression j y of that absurd, wicked, and monstrous custom.! A*. Y. Com.

The Wheat Crop.?The harvest in this part >f the State is over, and the apprehensions of a iglit crop confirmed. With a few exceptions, i he best farms in the country have yielded no nore than a half or two-thirds crop. A few if the better located plots, have turned out a nil yield.
