( * ' ' j Washington'* Birthday. j T?s;Abbeville; ?ight Infantry, and (be Southcfrt Right# Dragoons, two us 6110 military corps as oan be paraded, celebrated the twenty-*ocond in an appropriate and decidedly spirited manner. . The refpectivo companies pnraded in the morning, and after tho exereisw* in the field,! met ^at the court-house, where. W. M. Had-^ den, E>q., delivered an nddicss to a large and highly gratified audience. The young orator acquitted himself 'Well.- We wore much pleated with this kfilc and sentiment of his addrcfi#, nnd/wonid bo happy to givel a report of it to our readfti* were it possible 1 for us to Jo $o. " ' After this "feast of reason," the. companies, with a number of invited guests, repaired to Ramey's Hotel, wlioro an elegant and bountiful repast was waiting their attention. It is needless to say that due attention was paid to it, and that, in this exercise, even the well-drilled companies could not excel their invited friends. Tltc rich profusion of eatables having been duly honored, a supply of drinkables was next introduced, and never has a reception boon more cordial and inore refecting than was giveu this tributary to tho flow of mirth. Men whom we suspected to bo strict cold-water pharisees, seemed to got "exhileflited" from rnoro sympathy ! The writer himself was suspicioncd, and inasmuch as he (if guilty) was not tho exception to, but the rule, he will not deny now the "soft impeachment," but pleads tho syinjyathetic theory above advanced. Short and appropriato pjX-echea wore mado by various gentlemen present, and toast and sentiment went round. Some of these deserve a more extended notice, but we nrc uuab'o to givo it. The occasion passed off with great good feeling and harmony?not Ttjf circunvtanoo occurring to cast a shadow over thn crfninl nf o ? " ' " w' "l"~ rits which prevailed. Long may tho memory of the groat and good man whose biithday anniversary it w?5 l>e perpetuated, and liis virtues emulated, by tho millions who claim him as the father of their country! Before we dismiss tho subject, wc beg to make a remark in reference to tho very kind sentiment whieh was proposed by an esteemed friend. It was this: ' The Presa of Abbeville?May it ever b?? a Free, as well as an Independent Frett" The editor was called upon to respond, but being .cither too sober, " or too drunk, or too bashful, (let others decide which.) to acknowledge tho compliment No hnm? ^? 3 A ? .w...y M? w kVI us/ ou uu>r, UUU Ml assure biio who offered it am! those who so generously received it, that it was highly appreciated, and will bo gratefully remembered. Diffldolty In the Bcruth Carolina College. Tus recent flare-up in Columbia was much more serious thau the very meagre allusions of the Columbia proas wouM indicate. Wo hare private and reliable nocounts which represent the eicitemcnt as unprecedented. Tho military was ordered out, anch it was with great difficulty that ihe comimndcr restrained one man, at least, from 6ring upon the collego students. The Governor had the arms removed from the col lege campus, and quiet was at last restored, without further bloodshed. i It appears the difficulty originated in the arrest by one of the city marshals of. aatndt-nt, and hi? confinement in the guardhouse. We are not informed an to the reason of his arrest, but premune the inarwhal had, or thought he had, sufficient cause for his conduct. At*any rate, the student* tdiould have waited for an orderly and legaK investigation of the affair. Gut they did not. "Repairing, in a body, to the guard*/ i ' nouse, njey oHuerert down tne doors, and rescued (he prisoner. A. portion of them, j still unsatisfied, subsequently returned and assailed the marshal, who warn seriously injured in the conflict. Two of?the assailants wero j?l?o pretty badly hurt. The day following the student* again turned out in mass, when the military was called in requisition, as above stated. We do not pretend to any knowledge or disuunsion of the merits of the prime cause which led to the arrest of the stud**nt the subsequent riot. The ?ttig<p?m&y have j been justly or unjustlyapprelwnaed, we -do not know. But the Idea w? wish to lurid | out on this occasion, and on alf oce&ftions, in, th-it combined and forcible r^istnnce to ifl? due course of ?4w catinot bo tolerated, in men or ia boys wfyujittf consequences fearfully dangerous to the.peace The college fa now desert?d, and will soC probably rwtomij qpeMttowfor I insist that it is no part of the students' duj ties to dictate bis removal. If he is not ! competent, and they are di&.sati*8eJ. let them I petition their guardians to remove thorn , from under his administration. If the Trua j toits e.?tablinh the precedent of ru-moJeling Faculties at the suggestion of a majority ! of the students, we imagine few nun, with any self-respe**, will l?e found willing to accept a position in the Family. We do not donythuM^ltbt to rtudeftts to enlertain their own feelings towards their preceptors, nor to express theui; but wo do Ray that it will lx> a fearful Mow nt college education, and, ?l?ove all, college discipline, when a Hoard of Trustees permits such influences to control tin action. President McCay, it is said, hns expressed his willingness to resign. [ko* tuc independent ri:es!? ] .uionigomery Ala. February 19th, 1836. Editors of the Press:?Tlio publication iu some of your Carolina .pnpt-rs of tinrumor that I was raising a company 'of Em-, {grants for Kausfts, and the reception of several ictttrs from persons in South Carolinn, urging tnc to engage in this matter, induces me to say, that I never had tlto reinotestthought of engaging iu this sc.hfcinc. The impulses of those men who are engaged in it arc patriotic, and considering tho circumstances, heroic; and I applaud all who uro engaged in this effort to soi-un* Kansas to tho South, ns a slave State, but I uin profoundly convinced that (heir efforts :ii l..- ?? . w * ... mil uc unavailing, i uo not helleve tli.it Kansas will or can be n slave State. Tinlaws of political economy, which never cluing*, and which must in the end overcome political maneuvrcs and patriotic ebullitions arc against the permanent existence of slavery in.Kansas. I gave the reasons of this belief in a letter to \V. P. Belcukr, but it is prnhablu that lie had left before it reached Abbeville, or if he did receive it he probably thought it would"be best not to publish it, wkich I requested hiin to do. If any of his friends have thJ letter I thonld like it if they will give it to you for publication. I think the arguments of that letter will conviiu-c nil who read it. 13ut suppose the pro-slavery men should temporarily triumph in Kaneas and come to Congress, with a constitution recognizing slavery and iu>k admission as a State. The Anti Nebraska, BANK8-men are in a clear majority in .Congress. and tli??r? is hardly ? possib lity tbj>t. Kansas wotilrt bo admitted as a slaro State. Thirty-five years ag?>, when tbe Al?ol it ion party had not n dozen member* in Congress, Miasouri was refused admission b-causeshe recognized slavery, ami ^ _...u t.. ? - - ? i. nuum uc louiiBii iu suppose, mat Attention, now in iu rampant madness and strength, with ono house of Congress in its power, would recede from its demands made thirtyfive years ago. Kansas will uot be admitted as a slave State even if slic a>?ks admission. Remember my prediction, and await the result. Yours respectfully, BEN LANE POSEY. [ro* the ixdrrxftdxwt runts.] Tempo ranoe. Afcttrt. Editors: I see, in your last issue, a temperance speech taken from the t Bible?a book that we should all reverftnne, and toita teachings bow with bumble submission. % How dreadful niost be the ovi! against whicb sno.h awful woes are utterud t?v ITim who shall yot be our'final Judge, and from v?lio?e decisions no appeals can be taken! Yes, nn evil which drags its unhappy and miserable victims duwn to the dark dens of those-fon)' destroyer* of haman happiness. Poverty" and disease here, and rain and woe herwftov N<>w, who could believe, tluf stubborn fkct did not pre*ent itself on eveiy t>jd?s that a liquid so'destructive to lif*, to health, to fortune, and to morals, should in the short spacc of a few centuries have bound its fetters, not upon oqe individual alone, ,nor yet upon *?i n gleSrom m rinity, but thKt whole nations, civil and rued, refined and rifbtfc, should fiave. bugged the chains of bondage more abject and degrading than wan ever known to tyrants or superstition. The proud and the bumble, the master and tfro slave, the great and the stria?!, the learned and unlearned, all sects, castes and conditions of men, confess the magic of-its infaiiiaHnfluencq, and the yoke of bondage upon the necks of many is comparatively more grtUtpg tha* that cfjhit galley stare who toiis * .and *ooUi perhaps art " ' y it gats a relish of them, it generally retina I it for life. From whence, then, are the subjects of intemperance descended! Are they not descended from that class 6e!f- J My led moderate drinkers! Wo ask again, HXfi they not the legitimate offspring of the moderate drinkers ? The fart is, the moderate drinkers not only furnish from their! bands the fortj'-eight thousand habitual ami j occasional drunkards estimated in the Uni- ' rod States, but they do inure, they keep : them in countenance by drinking the same ' article which produces their intoxication. Since the moderate drinker thus countenances the drunkard, is he not accessory to thu crimo of drunkencs* ? and a* such, ho is morally guilty of the ?in of diitukenesfi. This is a serious charge, but it is nevertheless a true one. 1 believe it is a settled and I established principle in common law, that the man who either directly or indirectly .countenances, connives at, or encourag'S the commission of any crime, lie U ipso/acto indeed and, inftruth an aider and atiettar lH the commission of itand as such ho is a fit and proper subjuiut for legal punishment. Every temperate drinker is under the highest possible obligation to abstain .wo uwiiuiii ui ine lnnuence ins example exerts on those nrround liiro. Wc are expressly connnanded by the holy word of God, (and the command is not limited.) to "lot your light Rhino before men, that they, seeing Your good wotks, may glorify our Father in Heaven." The drinkiug of temperate persous has hitherto, in a great measure, prostrated and paralysed all attempts to rescue the intemperate from their ?uin and misery. It is entirely in tile power of the temperate part of the community, by uniting, to drive the fell monster of intcinperauce from our land. The measure* in train for redeeming our land from the curso of intemperance cannot fail but through the criminal apathy of the temperate themselves. A fearful responsibility rests unon the men r>t' il?i* generation, and especially upon the enlight??ne<l anil temperato. - Let this responsibility I>o deeply felt; let union and perseverance everywhere be the watch word; and soon, very soon, a drunkard will become as rare a monster as he was in the days of the first settlers, or the Pilgrim fatheitf. W. Mass Meeting in Now York. The "Young Men's Democratic. Union Club," of New York, held a mass 'meeting at Tammany Hall, on Thursday last. Several distinguished speakers were announced to address tho meeting. The old Wigwam sported a banner, with this seutitneut inscribed : "Citixen* by birth and choice. Y?>u have in a common cause fought and triuinnhcri together. The independence and lilwrty yon possess an$ the r?*i?ult of joint councils and luint efforts, of common dancreiv, sutfcrinu;:* and suffcus." The President introduced Co).* Orr, of South Carolina. Upon taking the stand, he said that he had been invited to participate with the Young1 Democracy of New York to celebrate the natal day of the gr?-at and immortal Washington. I came heie to we whether the feelings of the D?*mt?cracy of New York wa? in consonance with the feelings of the Democracy of South Carolina. We are approaching another Presidential election. We shall probably have three candidates in tho field, but tiitrro will bo litt]o need of those of tho dark lantern to grope about for a resting place. because we of the South nre ready to meet them to day. I ?*y, gentlemen, you of the North, taike care of tho JJlack "Republican*,M and gie will take care of the Know Nothing*. Fellow-Democrats of New York, f want yon to come together hero in this great State. Do not let yourselves lie disgraced by presenting two sets of delegates at Cincinnati?hertj up your differences. We of ' the South do not feel like entering into these matters, but look to you, as you love your country and the assendaney of .Democratic principles, to heal this difference. If tho coalition of the Democracy is kept* apart by tho leaders, throw those leader* overboard.
