We omitted in our last issue, to notice the amalgamation of the Carolinian and Telegraph, two of the leading secession papers of the State. This was for no want of respect for our staunch Southern Rights friend of the Telegraph, for there rats state action. We are authorized and requested by the said member of the leg islature to announce that the rumor is utteily false in form and conception. &r In another place we give our rea ders an account of the recent duel in New Orleans, between Dr. Hurt and Mr Frost, editor of the Crazeent, taken from the N. O. Bee. Mr. Frost was a native of Maine; he studied law and came to the South, settled in Georgia, and there married. #e afterwards emigrated to Louisiana, and has been since 1850 prin cipal editor of the New Orleans Cnscent. Like most Northern men who edit South ern papers, he was a strong Union man, in favor of the compromise, and a bitter opponent ot the favorite doctrines of South Carolina. Wiwill not, in order to expose what we may consider faults, in vade the sanctity of the tomb, whither he has gone “ somewhat ere his time,” in obedience to the summons of the code of honor. It is said that he possessed many social qualities, which made him esteem ed by those who knew him. FfllRTH OF JULY TOASTS. Liberty of speech is one of the inesti mable boons for which our brave forefa thers periled their all, seventy-five years ago, in a contest with the gigantic power of England; they triumphed, and se cured tor themselves a separate govern ment, which they fondly hoped and be lieved would secure to themselves and their posterity, not only freedom ot speech, but of action. The first act of the Federal Govern ment which tended towards the abridg ment of that right, was passed during the administration of elder Adams. We need not say we refer to the alien and sedition laws. The poople.igdignantat such an in vasion oftheir rights rose in their mightand hurled from power the administration which during its first term made such bold innovations on the Constitution, and re pealed the iniquitous laws whiA it had passed. Since that time little has been heard of any attempt on the part of the General Government to abridge the liber ty of speech, until Millard Fillmore has had the office of President “thrust upon him." During the last month the Moultrie Guards, a military company in Cliarleston, applied for the use of a gun shadatFort Moultrie forthe purpose ofeel ebrating the annivarsary of tlie battle of Fort Moultrie,a priv ilege which they have enjoyed from time immemorial. They were answered by the officer in command, who acted under higher authority, that such sentiments as were uttered on the previ- | ous anniversary could not be repeated looking been to the west looking for richer lands' I lion and embankment on your direct On this subject the Cliarleston Mercury road would-be avoided entirely; then uses the following appropriate language: passing through a highly cultivated por- It is amusing to witness tlie expressions tion of the district to Leavenswoi lh (a of offended public virtue made by tlie co operation and submission journals, in re ; ference to the manifestations of pdblic sentiment as evinced in the diffierent cel ebrations throughout tho .State on the 4th of July last.

Verily the people of South Carolina are a stiff-necked generation, and no act on their part, looking to resistance, and even to immediate resistance would at all astonish us. But they are not only a hard-headed people, they are also a peo ple restive and impatient under insult,and very much in the habit of redressing themselves without waiting for help from their neighbors. This sort of conduct is, to be sure, very rash, and might possibly result in the loss of money to some per sons, in whose estimation such loss is the greatest of human calamities, and to whom gain is patriotism as well as godli ness. Nevertheless, such is the singular indifference with which this same head strong people regard these possible con tingencies, that they will drink patriotic toasts and sentiments, greatly to the sor row and discomfort of the friends of this glorious Union. Fie! fie! people of South Carolina; you should be more considerate, and ro- member that what may be very good for you to say, may be very dreadful for them to hear. Could you not, at least, (since the past is remediless) on each future 4th of July, consult the patriotic editors whose equanimity you have so seriously enu unsettled, before you again give expres sion to your sentiments. We are sure they are net only willing, but anxious to act as your guides, lights, and tutors. CONCNDin.

MABAJI EIMOR*C9NTRADICTED. We have observed for some time among our anti-secession friends a strong effort to create the impression, at home »nd abroad, that Darlington is a submis sion district. Madam Rumor has been busy with her many tongues, in “ stuffing the ears of men w ith false reports.” We are told that Mr. so and so, has intimated an opinion against separate state action, and are called upon on that ac- count, to follow, automaton-like, the course which this distinguished individu al thinks best to be pursued. It is said that a drowning man will catch at afters, and as an illustration In poinf we think none can swfee us better than a rumor which lias been circulated that one of our promingnt members of the Legislature had mfrrtmcj that a majority of the peo ple of this District were opposed to sepa- ters is a coward. Well, the State has one brave man; may be two, but certainly one. Hope they all wont leave before secession takes place That DariingtoiT man is said to be now looking for richer lands in the West, and some have their negroes there already.— But never fear, boys. Mr. Shuler is here yet. As to Mr. Shuler’s right to utter the above sentiment, not even the 8tandard ( we presume, will doubt As to its pro priety we ourselves do not justify Mr. Shuler for calling all cowards who op pose secession, but we think these sarcas tic comments on the 4th of July toasts come with rather bad grace from a jour nal which has been started professedly for the purpose of uniting the South on the question of resistance. Does the editor suppose that the weapons of ridicule and sarcasm are proper to be used in throw ing oil upon the troubled waters, and healing the minor differences which ex ist among the people of South Carolina! If so, he has read the volume of human nature to little purpose. So far as re gards the Darlington man who is looking for richer lands in.the west, we can say for the information of the Standard, that long before the meeting in which he re peated the patriotic sentiment of the »*v- olutionary statesmen, “Millions for de fence, not a cent for tribute,” he informed us that he intended to emigrate if South Carolina did not secede, but that if she did he would remain with her. We know that he is now at home pursuing Jps dai ly avoefton, that of a fwjner, but are pn^red to say whether < not * or not he has (FOR THE DARLINGTON FLAG.) BRANCH RAIL ROAD. I have noticed in the columns of the “ Flag” one or more communications on the subject ol the connection, by rail road, of Cheraw, Society Hill, and Darlington, with the Wilmington and Manchester rail road ; and have also observed a num ber of efforts on the part of the Cheraw paper, made to arouse the people to the necessity of that enterprise—all, howev er, without the least success; so far as I am informed, no action having been had in the premises, by meeting, survey, or otherwise. Now, while there seemed to be some degree of interest felt in a connection via your town, I was not disposed to dis tract the public mind, thereby creating a division of sentiment, by calling attention to any conflicting scheme of my own; since, however, no proper attention has been given to the subject by those interest ed in moving forward in the matter, I will suggest another route for the pro posed road, which I humbly conceive will deserve some attention, and obtain some support which the other will not At first view my proposition may not probably be considered advantageous, but I desire a calm consideration of the sub ject before condemnation. It is this: build a rail road from Cheraw to Society Hill, from there to Mount Elon, and from there to intersect the Wilmington and Manchester road on the west side of, and within two miles of its Sparrow Swamp crossing. To attain this object, it will re quire the construction ot forty-seven miles of road, yet only ten miles more than is necessary to be constructed to form a junction through your place, the necMsi- ty and propriety of which curvaturt will be apparent, I will endeavor to answer now the question, which will of course be Why build ten miles more road to plish the same end ? * Either road! ^11 pass over the same ground hetwajflfltoraw and Society Hill’ therefore tis umMhsary to say anything of the business to be done there; but af ter it passes that point, a change takes place which is all important to the pro* purity of the road. First, several high and extensive hills, with stre-ama running between them, re quiring extensive trestle work, excava- lington District. Biehopville, and a wealthy portion of Sumter and Kershaw Districts, who now find a market at fif teen and twenty-five miles distance, over bad roads, would be brought within ten miles of the road ; that trade and al! that exceedingly valuable part of the produce of our own district, which now finds its way to Camden, would find a market within our own limits or transportation on our own road, instead of the Cam den branch. Of the voters of the Dis trict, nine hundred of them al least attend polls (living the nearest) which lay im mediately on or within five miles of this proposed location of the road ; this cir cumstance alone would prove that addi tional freight and travel would accrue; of the remaining five hundred votes, four are given at the Court House. Are there any other advantages ? Yes. The country is decidedly more level, and of conquence better adapted to its con struction ; a number of smart yet not in significant streams would be headed; Black Creek would be crossed at much less expense, Swift Creek, which at the Court House will require no inconsidera- bridge, trestle, excavation and embank ment, would be crossed as a spring branch, within two miles of its head, obviating the crossing of two or more small streams, but by no means unimportant obstruc tions on the lower route—they having high hills on either side; High Hill creek, which would require bridge, trestle, &c., no ordinary magnitude, would be headed, and the crossing of Sparrow Swarnp so nigh its head would be inconsiderable.— These obstacles being overcome, a loco motive could almost travel the remain ing distance on the lavel and firm earth. Another consideration entitles my propo sition to some importance. By it the dis tance to Charleston from junction is les sened ten miles, and of course increased that much to Wilmington, making a dif ference of distance (on the Wilmington and Manchester railroad) in favor of the latter place, thirty-five miles instead of fifty-five, as would be the case, thereby creating an additional incentive to our people to patronize our own fine seaport for trade—our own roads for travel—in fact, making the road a Smith Carolina project strictly, and as such entitled to the patronage and aid of the citizens and the State. Will it injure the interests of our citi zens embarked in the Wilmington and Manchester rail road? No! Because the loss by the ten miles short travel on one end of their road will be more than repaid by the additional patronage se cured. What then is to become of your seat of justice, the town of Darlington ? Let her build a Plank or Rail Road to connect at Flinn’s Cross Roads, ten miles west, instead of eight or nine miles south- Why? In the first place, a road of any kind can be built to the one point at a much less cost than the other, for the ob vious reason that the wesfofti route will require scarce any bridge, and neither excavation or embankment; the obstacles on the other have been alluded to. Se* cond. No loss of freijjflt would arise, from the fact that all from your immediate vi cinity would concentrate at the Court House, and the largest portion of that be low is raised very near to, or on the Wil mington road. Third. The travel would be infinitely greater, both at public and private times—population below you being small, while above ’tis great. Lastly. She must be in better condition than she is at present, and I must think more prosperous than she would be if a road was made directly through. If it be urged as an objection, that the transportation of the river crops will be lost, I answer it will not, more than by the other road; because they will fol low the channel of the river—it being cheapest—as long as a boat can run, and the improvements made and making on them, are such as to induce me to believe that Pee Dee may forever hereafter be declared navigable. Anothea. route, taking the old river road, has been spoken of. Its proposed termination “might twit some folksas for me, the idea is too preposterous to waste ^tt|ds upon. In mating up distances, I have been governed by a food map before me, aided by my personal knowledge of the various roads tlirough the district; I can there fore rely ou their accuracy. As to the cost of building, I verily believe that the longest road (or my project) can be built for the least money. An addiiionul cost, if need be, should be incurred. In conclusion I would ask that some one of your subscribers at Cheraw, So ciety Hill. Leavensworlh, Flinn’s, Mount Elon and Bishopville, do each furnish you at an early day with a statement of cotton made near, or likely to be trans ported from their localities respectively, and that you publish a statement of the same, consult your map and brain, and let us hear from you and all; let the peo ple but will it and the work is done— arouse them now, or the time for action will have passed. And now, in view of all the statements made, and opinions advanced, I unhesi tatingly submit my project to the consid eration of the good people interested, as the very best scheme which can be sug gested to secure a greater share of pros perity and happiness to the greatest num ber—the only proper object to be aimed at. If my efforts are productive of good to my district, I shall rejoice—of evil, they cannot be—if of nothing, I can console myself with the reflection of having striven to benefit my kind. NOW OR NEVER. [for THE DARLINGTON FLAG.] TO THE COMMISSIONERS OF PUBLIC BUILDINGS. Permit me Gentlemen, to call your at tention to a presentment of the Grand Ju ry, Spring Term, 1851, relating to the inconveniences of the interior of the Court House, resulting to both Court and people, and to urge upon you the propriety of making such alterations, as will afford more comfort and convenience, as well to suitors witnesses and spectators as the Bar. No change could scarcely be worse than the existing arrangement, and the only reason of its tolerance for so long is that it would have required additional taxation to alter it; the various boards for many years having frequently had the matter under consideration. This, its only barrier to attain so desi rable an object is, I am happy to learn, removed ; the funds in your hands, with others lo be realized, being sufficient to effect it. It is a matter which concerns your entire body, and that portion of you (members of the bar and officers of the court) who are more deeply interested than any other, will deserve condemna tion if you do not constantly urge the matter upon your body. I am of opinion, that without any ad dition to tlie court house, as has been pro posed, a permanent change can be made for a moderate sum that w ill answer the wants of the district in all time to come, and for which you wifl receive their un divided thanks. So far your administration is entitled to much credit for having met your ne cessary expenditures without a resort to taxation, and I hope you may merit ad ditional praise by remedying the only evil of which you have cognizance now existing.

In consequence, we understand, of certain expressions employed by Dr. Hunt, during a Whig meeting which Mr. Frost was addressing, the latter sent him a challenge. The cartel was accepted, and the parties met at the Bayou Rosd, on Wednesday, but were arrested by tho police just in time to prevent the rencon tre. Yesterday morning they both ap peared before Recorder Caldwell, and gave bail in the sum of $1,000 to keep tlie peace. Almost immediately after binding them selves by this obligation, they proceeded to violate it, repaired to the barracks, be low the city, and there exchanged shots with (fo'tbie-barrelled guns, loaded with ball. The first proved ineffectual, and after some fruitless efforts to ar mat ters, the guns were again loaded, and tho parties placed in position. Dr. Hunt wan uninjured, but his hall struck Mr. Frost in the chest and penetrated the lungs.— He died, we understand, in about five and twenty minutes. We had hoped that the new Constitu tion had done away with duelling, but the barbarous and bloody code of mis called honor still survives, and claims from time to lime a victim. Mr. Frost has fallen a sacrifice to this false and per nicious doctrine. By his death the press loses one of its ornaments—a ready, graceful and well-informed writer—the bar, an active, able and eloquent member; and society, a useful, intelligent and warm-hearted citizen.—A'.

Died, at his father’s residence in Dar lington district, July 9th, James Samuel Green, aged 15 years, second son of Capt. James and Mrs. Sarah A. Green. He has fallen in the springtime of life, as the tender leaf nipt by the untimely frost. At an early age he obeyed the di vine command, “ Son give me thy heart,” and attached himselC.to the Presbyterian church, in which, IhFa meek and amia ble walk, he endeared himself to his as sociates. A dutiful son, an affectionate brother, beloved for his affectionate man ners and affectionate disposition by all who knew him, he promised to become a pillar to the church and an ornament to society. Assured of the ardent affection of fond parents, w ith a bright prospect lieforo him, his path to usefulness seemed strew ed with fiowers, yet when the rude hand of disease brought him to a bed of suf fering he murmured not, but passed the cold waters of death without a struggle. “Jesus hath now’ received His latest living breath; Yet vain is Satan’s boast Of victory in his death.” * Departed this life on Tuesday morning, 1st inst., of consumption, Mr. Acoi phus Talavast, native ot France, but for the last 25 yaars a resident of Darlington district. He has left a w ile and nzitr small children to mourn their sad bereave ment. Death is no respecter of persons. The rich and the poor, the learned and the unlearned, all have to fill one common grave. Could honesty and virtue have stayed the hand of death, Adolphus Talavast would have been spared yet longer. But the loss to his beloved fami ly and numerous friends is his eternal gain. 92 91* Corcoran &.
