Judge C'JJuall'a Reminiscences.
From a report, of .Imlge O'N will's lute
lecture, as furnUluil l?y the South Cnrolini;Ui,
\vc take some extracts of general interest.
The lecture itself was in all imvt interesting
ami instructive, ami we would be
pleased if the c-(cetne<l ami able lecturer
?:ouM be im.!ut:e<l to favor the metropolis as
Weil as the capital with an occasion of the
Santo kiml. A lecture or series of lectures
on tin; "Jkmli ami the 15ar," from .liulgo
O'Xeall, would be hear>l with lively ami
general interest. Can we not have tlie opportunity

10th Q&dK'cembcr, 1801, was passi-d the
net to establish a College at Columbia,
which ha? scattered light and knowledge
like the ray of the morning sun all over the
State. T?> it, I ami most of the others
known to the history of the State since
1890 owe much of what, wc have been or
still arc. I first saw ami en ten <1 its walls
in 181 !. Like Columbia, the South Carolina
College was then in its infancy. Two
college bail lings, aj resident's house, ami a
tenement house for two professors, an I a
student's hou-e, where all which were proved
for education. Look now upon the canj?is,
filled with buildings, and the magnificent
College Hall looming up in the street
?and n=k. has education kent o ice with

May I be unlit!;,'.'.! a moment in recall- '
ing (lie friends and |.receptors of my youth. j
Dr. Mascy was lij?t in the eolh-gc and first j
in the affection of Ids pupils. When w.*n
in repose there was nothing remarkable in
liis appearance ; but when lie began to
speak, oven in common conversation, gen
ins Hashed from his eyes, and every linen- '
ment of his race unfolded the man among
men. In his lecture mom he was the light
of science and knowledge; difiieulties in i
metaphysics vanished at his touch, ane htl- |
fr.f /ctfrcs was shown to be the' handmaid i
of criticism, eloquence and grnee'.s In the ;
pulpit he was indeed the preacher of right- '
eousness?he might have, spoken hour up- I
on hour, and none would have perceived j
the flight of time. As the President, none i
ever commanded more respect from even j
thoughtless boys, iind at a commencement j
grave Senators .v.lmired this graceful, ven-}
erablo preceptor as he delivered the giplo- '
mas and pronounced his ros tfcralis., and j
finally with his weeping graduates, j
upon his farewell address, lie is, however, i
gone?forever gone?from earth ; few remain
who can sny, "I knew Jonathan
Mnxcy."
'J'ho Ucv. John Urown was Professor of
Logic, and moral Philosophy. He was one
of the original Trustees of the South-Caroli
na College. I If. taught and preached on:
t!io Lords Day in llics College < "lutpel for a t
short time after T entered the. College, and !
then became the President of Franklin :
University of Cieorgia. lie was a clear-j
headed, faithful teacher.
Thomas Park was Professor of CI reek and !
Latin Languages. Kind old friend, who j
does not honor thy name ! None. I am 1
sure, who ever were within the College (
walls. Your President will hear witness !
with me to his valuable service, and to his
almost idolatrous affection with which he
watched over it. He will remember how
earnestly oflVetionately he besought us to
end ouf rebellion, in 1812, against Professor
Blackburn, and how, at least, at his.eiltreaty,
it was compromised in the lecture room by
that remarkable treaty, "let me alone and
I'll let vou alone !"

cmatician. lint my acquaintence with him
was slight, very slight ; for his place was j
soon vacated and my much esteemed friend
Col..larni-s Gregg, then a tutor in the Col.
lego, filled his chair temporarily. Col.
Gregg has so recently passed from amoncr

I fear you will ever pay.

Simons entered upon its duties, ami never did j
any beginning argue so much prospective !
usefulness. His lectures dCnd experiments!
filled the students with enthusiasm. Chcm- j
istry was the theme on every tongue?his i
lecture room was constantly filled, and Pro- j
lessor Simons was for the time the idol of '
the College, liut, alas, how vain arc hu
inau-cxpectations. In February, ] 812, lie'
vvas drowned in attempting to cross I loughfibook

opinion, generally entertained, by both pro

Prof. Lieccntc'a Lecture.
According (< the announcement of the Inst ;
week Prof. John J.eeonte M. 1)., of the South :
Carolina (,'olleee will deliver a public lecture, |
before the Young Mens* Christian Association j
of tliis place, in Lite Court House, on Friday
evening next. Tim subject of the Lecture will
he, Thought* on the study of the Phj'sieal Sci
cnces. The Scientific attainment of the distinguished
Professor, and his high character as a
Lecturer, we trust will secure him a Inrge audience.
The Lecture will be entirely free. It will .
be the first of a contemplated series of Lectures '
from mcU'Of high literary and scientific attainments;
and we feel interested for the success of
the scheme that it should begin under favorable
auspices. Let. us give the Professor u large)
attendance and cordial greeting, and at least '
exhibitrour appreciation ?>f the claims of sci- j
eiicu by tliif-tribute 16 the efforts of one of its ;
distinguished Votaries. !
Our Court.
The Spring Therm of our Court opened on
Molffiay liut his Honor Judge O'Xvnll preai- j
ding. The Judge socio.? to h<j in fine health
and spirits and has addressed .himself to the
labors of the wveic, with his accUrtomcd energy
and ability. In his Address to the trratid i
Jury, lie urged the necessity of rigidly enforceing
the license laws ami the need of still further
Legislation on the subject ; rcconunended
n revision nnd digest of the Laws of the
State; pointed out the defects in the present
system of prison discipline and suggested
the propriety of establishing a Penitentiary;
expressed his npproval of the main
features of the present Free School Sj'stem.;''
atul recommended a reform in the ltoad law?.
The amount of business on the Criminal
side of the Court was small. The Craud Jury
found only a few bills, and thene involving mi- |
nor offences. The Issue Docket however is I
a large one, ami it will require nil the powers !
of the Judge lo clear it during the present
Term.

The Submarine Telegraph Bill.
Tin- Rill making an annual appropriation to i
(lie Telegraph line to be established between |
Newfoundland and Ireland, we see, has be- | '
eoine a law by its passage in tlie Senate. A i j
late number of the ticicntijic Aturr'fnti, eon- ! ]
tains a communication from Prof. Alexander ! ,
Hall, in which lie doubts the practicability of j i
the enterprise, and his opinion is endorsed by | j
I lie editors of that journal. According to the j
Professor's statement, the difficulty consists in j ;
the length of the wire, the impossibility of j I
securing its complete isolation under water |
and of Invini!' it down wiilmnt ?w...:.ir...i 1
Whatever may be the result, the (Jovernment \ t
iiiftin:) 110 risk, as the annual appropriation is !
to be made only after the establishment of the : '
line, The following is an cxirnet from 1'rof. (
llair.-* cotnnitinirniion : ' i
That. th?re has never beon f raiintiitird a
comtmmicntion thromih a continuous wire the j !
length of the cable, twenty-four hundred utiles,
so far as my information extends, Ibiti even . <
had this experiment Keen snei-essfully made on | 1

tagonistic nn clement produces a sensible ef- i <

tlic length of cahle proposed, entirely ahsorh i
the suhtilc fluid, especially all that could he j
forced through eo small a wire its the one con- !
tern plated. Hut even admitting a cotnmuniea- ;
t ion possible, it is known to Klcclrieians that'-'
in submerged wires a perceptible period of; I
time elapses in the passnge of the current, and I <
that this period increases with the length of the ! (1
enlde, ami that it rcfpiires some seconds of'
time before the wire is uncharged after each j 1
sign:il. In the length of cahlc proposed, ae- I ''
cordiiiET to recent experiments, it would require ! s
over six seconds for each signal, ma king" less j ,,
tlin.ii half a column in the Now York llerald .

In the next place, leaving out the fpK-etion ! ,
those radical anil insurmountable obslaelcs in | .
the wav of the present plan of a telegraph, | "
the i mprobability, to use no stronger term, of j '
securing a perfect insulation with so thin alb
coating of gut la percha for so many hun<lre<l !
miles of wire, when the (-lightest particle of i _
(lamp?even the prick of a pjji?though its j
delicate covering, would destroy the whole | 8
work, is of itself an iinportnnt item in making
up the chances of success. I v
Then the almost impossibility of laying down ' u
so long and delicate a cord without an aeci- j 0
dent,' from sli:p< surging, pel-Imps. against . j.
heavy seas, when the slightest strain would v
damage either the central wire or its covorintr, t
and 1 can see but little margin for a successful n
result. /
American Humor. 0
"We extract from the Washington Si<ir, the o
following sketch of tin; salient points of i\ lee- r
ture, reccntlj' delivered by tlic lion. S. S. Cox, j
before the Smithsonian Institute, on American },
humor. The subject is a rich one, and? its ma- I
tcrials will well repay research. Whatever inny 1
he. said of American Literature, generally J
there it< no doubt of the originality of our f
humor. It ia something indigenous to our soil, i
and well illustrates all the peculiarities of the c"
national character: j1
A raey and graphic lecture was that of lion, t
S. H. Cox last night upon the peculiarities of t
American humor. A bright-eyeu lady remark- i
ed in our hearing th it Mr. Cox seemed to have c
A great dealTof "Jingle in him." Wo think so j
tiK?,- and guess moreover that whoever sweeps' f
the lecture-room lo-<lny will find n few vest (
buttons scattered about. In fact the lecturer M
made his audience "laugh consumcdly" ns he H
depicted with telling hits and anecdotal illus- ' J
trations, th'! audacious irreverent, extrava- t
gant humor peculiar to his country.
The argument that Americans must fail in t
humor from beinir a composite neonle mn<l? m> I i
from nil nations was eombittted, and the opin- i t
ion expressed that the blending of so many I c
phases would result in a multiform humor of j i
the richest nature. ; j
Freedom ami plenty induces hilarity, and | (
though we are terribly in earnest in our pur- t
suits yet we laugh while we work and enjoy a <j
joke as well as most folks. '|
Illustrations of Amerienn humorous writers f
were given in Curtis (Howndji,) showing up i
"Mrs. I'otiphur" hnd the '-Rev. Oenm Cheese; \
in iSaxe holding up to the wouhl-be aristocrat, ,
the wax-end worked by his progenitor; in i (
Mitehcll, talung sly peeps through his "Lor?- I a
netto" at tint Fifth avenue pnrvenue.s. I |
Franklin's humor was not American, but ! i
stifled in Addisonian phrase. Irving's humor ; i
was mofjj" English than American. Shillaber's ' ,
"Mrs. Partington" is a second editon of Kli<-ri- i
dun's "Mrs. Mrtlaprop," butr his "11:6" is indig- !
enous to tho soil, n penning specimen of young |
America delighting in practical "scdls." " j
?< Our Innnor is not in books, but. the drolle- <
ries of Mrs. I'nrtingtonism's local items, !
of our tlirec thousand American journals. I
John 1'. Ilale, John Van Buren, Tom Cor !
win, anil ex-Senator Dickinson, were noticed j
as specimens of humorous public speakers.
Diirnum's Booke was noticed, as containing I
many examples of the practical, "sell" peculiar |
to New England, in winch the racimjssof the
joke hides the rascality of the job. *
Mr. Cox gave, with point a variety of anecdotes
illustrative of the audacity and irreverence
ol Young America. The Iccturer pave
bia illustrations of this reprehensible trait
witllf "reproof 011 his lip, but a smile in his eve,"
?-* *
niivi nvviiir.u i v iiiiiijy w f vuuiu i1ul UUl j J

Mr. Cox, in cupcladiug, said that our humor e
laclu rctincnicnt; snmo such machine as that {
at the Patent Office, which chspns wheat of ,
smut, was needed to provide its with a better
brand of liui/ior.
Coolie Trado. j
A correspondent of the .Charleston Mercnrtf
proposes a novel project in the way of supplying
the demand for cheap labor at the Sootti, ,
by an importation of Coolies from CHu'na. The J
scheme is regarded by the writer as entirety j
practicable and one whieh may enlist the sympathies
of the North ; at whose expense, he
itipdulges by the,way, io-? vein of quiet sarA?

has been residing for ten years jnst, uirthe

ligation In-fore two judicial functionaries |
Jauada, it was decided thai the Ashbur- !
treaty did not meet his case, lUid lie was j
ordingly discharged.
{ccently Gov. McRae, of Mississippi, sent
;?eeial message to the Legislature embraca
letter from Canada from the defaulting
iMirer. In hi:> letter, he says :
'1 have been near fourteen years an exile,
ng in this Siberia America, exposed to j
terrible climate, where the merc ury often ;
is to 4<) degrees below zero, separated !
11 all that, is dear to me on earth. Surely
i is suflicn-nt punishment for all mv prelis
acts, liven if I had been living in

punishment I have endured.

I have a wife, sir, horn in the sunny '
i'.h, whose relations reside in Madison
ntrv, who is most anxious to return to
native Stale. She nohly deserted, her
eu:s, her home, her all, to follow her
band into exile ; her ]>unishinent has
ti greater than mine. <S7ic at least is ini'nl
; but this has not prevented the elile
from doing its woist upon her, and
is gradually sinking into the grave. All

'lie Ciovcrnor submits liis proposition to

he Vicksburg "Whig," refering to this
\ says :

dream of bliss was of short duration. A
months saw her husband branded with

; he had outraged, and from that day to
she has shared his exile. Weary,weary
s they have been to her ! And in that
I and inhospitable clime where .she h:is
id a refuse and a home, how her heart
yearned for the sunny home where
ng years were cherished, none hut the

j does not we still say well, ltut let him
e?let his wife gaze once more on the

The Son of extremely poor parents, in

Missouri, about. IS 10, at the age of about
18. In 1812, he was employed as keeper
<>i si village bar, at ?8 per month, Iiis first,
on trance into town life in that situation, a
lawyer in the village made his acquaintance,
discovered Ins talent. and tendered hint books
and his own tutorage, if lie would study law.
Oroon readily acceeded, and read for a year
behind the bar, whenever the demands tor
drinks allowed him time. Within two
years from that time he had taught a country
school, attended a grammer school himself;
made several speeches before a debating
club, aud received license as a lawyer.
He then represented his county in a
Democratic State Convention of 1S43-4 and
lucre made his debut :is a politician, in a
speech of astonishing beauty, elegance ami
power. His fame as a prodi go, was carried
to the extremes of the State by llic returning
delegates, and he was placed on Hit
electoral ticket for I\>lk and Dallas. It wa*
in that canvass that we first saw him. lie
was traveling anil debating with tlie most
eloquent Whig of the State. Before a mixed
crowd of two thousaud people, whero his
antagonist had tremendous prestige, Green
rose triumphantly above him, broke the magic
spell of his fame, and carried oft' the
banners. As he descended from the stand
the ladies threw boquets at his feet and the
audience shook the building with shouts of
rapturous applause. lie was sent to Congress
