C. sept 22-atam --- A ;7.O1EIL1 AIIN'IS AT COLUMB!IA. Address3 of Col. Thomas Taylor to tile People of the Stato--An Appeal to the People. 7o the /'coplc of .Si (arlin: As Presi(ent of the Stato Agri cultural and Mechanical Society, the undersigned makes an appeal to his fellow-citizens in behalf of the ap proa1ching 8tato Fair, which can bo made a brilliant success by the co operativo efforts of tho farmers, mechanics and manutifacturors who are interested in doveloping the material interest of the State. The o(-(asiol is opportuno for a grand rally in sUPPort of a Society whose work in promoting the objects of practical agriculture, horticulture, fruit growing, stock breeding, the melicWal and manufacturing om ploymenclts, dlomlestic conolmy, otc., desrves the recognition and active co-operation of every friind to civilization and the welfare of the State. Amid the evils besetting the advancement of all these industrial interests, while the incubus of,A hostile government was upon -.61r people, the Society has steadily Ifur, sued it.,, nob. purposes, and sought to instil hope and courage into the breasts of the desponding by an - nually presenting an exhibit of .the resources, Which teach the lo'sson of our true greatness when relieved fronm the grinding O)pr0Ssiolls of an alien horde. Now, that the achievo ment and restoration of good government has mitigated our con dition in this respect, the work of the Society must be directed with redoubled energy to tho prime objects of its existeice ; and, with ulabated confidence ill tle destiny of South Carolina as one of the most prosperous and desirable Commonwealtls of the American Union, this appeal is made to the men and women who constituto its basis of futuro greatness for thoir energetic devotion to the unselfish purposes of the Society. With a single exception there are noc) silairied olicers, and all the in c(mle of tie Society is devoted to the advancement of agriculture and kindred indutstries. All classes of thecommunity should feel that it has claims upon their confidence and suipport, and none should neg lect to contribute their mito to its advancement in the future. The strength of the organization is om bodied in the lifo and annual momn. be: s ii, which ought to include men and women from every countyin the State. A small number of persons hlave con stituited this membership in tihe past, and the time is propitious to increase the force which will direct its aff airs hereafter. Woe needl to be brought together for a brief recreation from the labors of a, year, where the opportunity is givenl to gain information of, and re newv acquaintance with, each other whmere the prodlucts of the farm, garden and hlousehold, the cunninn skill of the artison, and implroveil breeds of animals, are exhibited for tile inspoeetionl and study of all who are intent upon0 profiting by thle good1 examplles of their neighbors Such an exposition as is worthly of the State, cannot fail to give pleasure and satisfaction to every one who feels a just pride in the material advancement of the coun try. Life membership can be made to us tain an d permanently establish this Society. Tile peopl) inl every county should organize a club of life members, and thus bring to bear an influence which will be felt and diflused throughout the State. From one to two hundred members in every county would furnish an adequate endowment to p)laco the Society upon an enduring basis, which would( afford an incomo suffi cient to double the annual premium list and largely incereaso the means for promotion of the general good. Such a concentration of force amnd interest would be the most practical method for the assured p)ermaneney of the organization, and would prove alike beneficial to the~ public and prIivate interest. It would give a voice to every section in the manag ument of the affairs of -the Society and whatever is most conductive t tihe general welfare would find ex pression, supplemented by a power to control and direct the operations of the Society. In a word, the bond of union would be perfected wihich is necessary to stimulate and advance the objects in view for the elevation of agriculture and the mechanic art-the chief occupation of our people. Withouit such co o)oration and unity, the existence of the Society itsolf must remain op)omecral and uncertain. The officers ol the Society are an ticipating a large attendanco at the CoIing Stato Fair, whibh promises to excel in exhlibits and all other respects any similar occasion since the war, and, as a grand reunion of the cominmonwealth, now happily rehived from the prostrate condi tion of degradation and insecurity in a political sense, it is an event to be viewed with prido and pleasure. A cordial welcomo awaits all who may come, and the best facilities at command will be given to insure a pleasant and profitable occasion. Tnos. TAYLOR, President State Agricultural and Mechanical Society. Captain Sommes' Deathbed. When Captain Semmnes was told by his physicians that his disease 'would prove fatal in a few hours, or at most days, lie calmly thanked them an( requested that a father of the Society of Jesus, his con fessor, a bosom friend, be sent for to come at once. In the meantime lie arranged his worldly affairs quietly and satisfactorily. When the father came the Admiral re - ceived the last sacrament. He then addressed a few words of consolation and advice to his family. Soon after he became delirious, looked up, and ordered every window closed that the rain might not be blown in. Then, after a few moments of silence, he said ; "You will see the Judge about it. The case has not been decided properly. I ask for noth ing but justico ; should I not have it? Promise me to attend to the matter, since I cannot do it my self." Then he imagined that he stood upon the deck of his ship, preparing for battle; he conversed with his officers on the appearance of the onomy, preparing for a decisive conflict. This speedily pissed away, and a short period of return to consciousness followed, during which, thoroughly conscious that this indeed was his last battle, lie calmly bade farewell to each memlber of his family. Death did not close his eyes or stop his breath, however, cre ho pronounced his confidenco in God and his hope and belief in salvation. TiHE SUN)AY school at Tilton, Ky., passed a resolution last spring that any scholar attending the circus should pay five cents to the treasury, any teacher twenty-five, and the superintendent five dollars. A nice crisp V was put in the box last Sunday and the superintendent still wears his summer hat. A BALTmMoRE lawyer sued his minister for a fee of $50 for legal services, and the jury found that ho was worthy of his hire. The clergyman testified that ho con suilted him as a friend and a mem-~ b)er of his congregation, and that. he (lid not exp)ect to be0 charged for it. NEvADA people are proud of a meteor seen on Saturday night. September 16. The apparent. diameter was about ten inches, and when overhead it broke into two p)ieces. About a minute and a half later a heavy report was heard, wvhich echoed among the mountains. for twvo or three minutes. A PoTTsvILLE woman, thinking she heard an unusual noise in her parlor, stepped into the room and there discovered ber cow, con tentedly chewing her cud and com placently looking at herself in the. mirror. She "shooed" that cow out. IT IS SAID that $40,000 of the. $100,000 given by William H. Vanderbilt to the men of the New York Central & Hudson River Railroad Company has not yet been. distributed, the number of work men entitled to gifts being less; than was estimated at first. A OAT in Allegheny, Pennsylvania,. sprang upon a young man as he entered a room and attempted to, scratch his eyes out. His brother camne to his assistance, and she. bit, off the end of his finger. A lazy fellow, falling a distance.of fifty feet, and escaping with only a. few scrate.hes, a by-ptander re marked thI,"he was too plow tQ fahl aBt enpigh to hurt himsel."
