Judge Glov er is an able lawyer, an affable gentle man, and ono who is in every way fitted tor the duties of the office. His appointment will give univeroitl satis faction. Since writing the above we see that the appointment is made by the Gov ernor. The lleaper Is constantly gathering into his garner from lile's highway. He stalks abroad in the land, and the young and the old come alike within the reach of his sickle. Last week we memi nod the ill ness of a little child of Mr. McQueen Salley, and expressed the hope that the disease would tuke a favorable turn, but it has been ordered other wise by an all-wiBe Piovidence.

The KctluioiMl-s Mill IMc \ic On the Fourthol July proved quite ii success We have received a very interesting account of it from a thoughtful correspondent, but com ing so late and our space being crowded, we will make a short synop sis of its contents. About lour or five hundred people were present, and all enjoyed them selves hugely. The Caw-Caw Light Infantry, (apt. Davis, wont through tho maueuvres of drilling, and ac quitted themselves handsomely. The exert* fljs of the day commenced with prayer by Rev. Massaboau; the Declaration of Independence was read by Rev. Penny,after which the largo assemblugo was uddressed by Mr. J. N. Hook, in nn able and ele gant discourse. Every thfug was on baud for the inner man. Our correspondent regrots that our ''hamUome faces'* were not aeon on the ground. For this we take off our ha't and make our best bow, us it is so hard to find anybody to agiee with us on this point. baptist SUNUAv'sElTuOL convention at Jamisons a rousing meeting. On Friday last at 11 o'clock the delegates from the various Sunday Schools of tho Baptist denomination in thiu ( ouuly met at the Jamison or Mt. Caimel Church, arriving by railroad and private conveyances. The representation was quito full ii ml at the appointed time the organi zation w as c flee ted by the election of tho following olliccrs: President?Rev. D. W. Cuttino. Vice-Presidents?R. II. Riley and Rev. K. J. Edwards. Secrotary?W. A. Edwards. Treasurer?J. P. Bruce. The proceedings of the Couvcu tion, which occupied three days, will bo published iu pamphlet form, and will be too lengthy lor publication here. At 12 o'clock the introductory ser mon was preached by Rev. W. J. Snider, giving a pleasant send off to the meeting; after which tho Conven tion udjourned to meet at 9 o'clock on Saturday. The next morning a very instruc tive essay "How shall we Instruct the Young ?" was read by Mr R. S. Weeks. After this, about 12 o'clock, Rev. J. J. Getsiugcr preached one of the most forcible sermons of the sos sicn, taking as b'u< subject the words, "Go forward." Dinner was then announced, and nt 1 o'clock the tables, 75 feet long, groaned under the good things of tho neighborhood, and the largo assem blage crowded around, but could hardly make a visible impression on t he provisions so bountifully made. After dinner the crowd reassem bled in the Church and listened to a few delightful songs and a most im pressive address to tho children from Rev. F. P Robertson, a student from the Kentucky Baptist Theological Institution. On Sunday morning about 10 o'clock a Inrg er crowd than usual as sembled, lilling the C! ur'ch to over flowing, where a Sunday School mass meeting was held. Superintcudaut R. II. Rilcy con ducted the meeting, and addresses were delivered successively by Stilus R. Mellichamp, Rev. D. W. Cut tin ), Ret. W. J, Snider, aud Rev. J. J. H. Stoudcnmire, all setting forth the importance of the Sunday School cause, aud engaging the attention with suitable anecdotes and illus ra tions. At 12 o'elock the charity ee rmon was preached to an overflowing au dience by Rev. F. P. Robertson. The sermon was marked by that simplicity and pathos which is so peculiarly the characteristic of the youthful speaker. During tho sing ing of tho missionary hymu "From Grcenlauds Icy Mountains,' ' a col lection was taken up which added materially to the treasury. We wish much success to the cause which the members of this Church are pursuing with such laudable zeal, and hope that the next Contention which meets next Ju\y iu Branch \ 111? will ho still larger and more en couraging. We will announce the programme at the proper season. The hospitality of the people of Jamison and neighborhood cannot bo excelled. Hon. IT. M. llutaom? The demise of this Christian gen tleman which occurred iu our town on last Friday, has thrown a gloom over the whole Community in which his many virtues aro appreciated, and will long bo cherished with profit Ou Saturday morning a host of friend* assembled at tho Presbyterian Church to pay the last respect to his memory . Hon. T . W. Glover, Dr. T. A. El liott, Hon. S. Dibble, Gen. J. F. I/.lar, Col. W. J. DeTreville, Capt. John A. Hamilton, Hon. N. A. Rull, C. B. Glover, Esq., and Jas. H. Fowles, F.eq., acted as pall-bearers. The whole of the Orangeburg bar followed tho remains to the grave. Rev. T. II. Lcgarc delivered the funeral discourse, in which he paid a just und touching ?ribute to his ex alted character, which found a re sponse in every heart. Ho alludod to him so appropriately as a type of gentlemen who aro fast passing away in this uge of demoralization; and referred to his innate politeness which was extended alike to the humble us to the great, aud was illustrated in tho retirement of home as (veil as in the thoroughfares Mr. Hutson wob born in Beaufort County on the 27th of January, 1813, and was consequently in his 67th year when he died. Ho commenced tho practice of law at Coosuv hntehio iu April 1836; aud moved to Orangcburg about tho year 1811. He has, therefore, been a resident of this County about 38 years. As a lawyer he had few equals for precision und safety, und at one time enjoyed a lucrative practice. Tho neatness and pcrlection of his legal papers are subjects of rwinaik wher ever they nre kuown. Iiis ill health prevented him from taking an active part in tho rcceut war, but he held tho oflico of Provost Marshal at this place, which he of ife. filled with that scrupulous exactness which has always charactori zed his life. I About two years ngo he was appoint ed by Gov. Hampton to tho office of Master in Equity for this County, and all know how well he performed his duties up to the time of bis death. We had the honor of knowing in timately the subject of this sketch to whom we looked u p as an adviser and friend. We have always found him a gentleman of high toned honor an d unflinching intcgritj, a character which we would hold opto the risiug generation ns a model of imitation. The testimony of Hon. W. D. Porter in a letter of condolence on his death represents him truly as "a just and upright man who did his duty in lite and won tho universal esteem of the community." lie was an honest man, a useful citizen, a tender husband, a loving father and a linn frieud. In his death Oraugeburg has sus tained a loss which cannot bj re paired. His earthly tabernacle has dis solved, but he is now removed to a house not made with hands eternal iu the Heavens. I>o We Relieve in Witchcraft ? "I lake the position that we do not, iu iu broad sense, said a gentleman of years and i experience, and yet we find many of the , present day carrying a Buckeye in their pocket through a 'und of superstition, when they mich' he relievtd by a few applications of Tablet's Buckeye Pile j Ointment."
