LAND WARRANTS.
The long delayed act of justice toward*
the recipients of bounty land, says the
Charleston Courier, by making the war
rants of 1850 assignable, has at last !>een
concluded. These warrants, in conse
quence, have appreciated, while a corres
ponding fall has taken place in those of
the previous issue. Both now command
about 9102 for warrants of 160 acres;
they certainly ought to be worth more—
at least the Government price of the
lands donated; for, if purchased in quan
tities, and located in proper places, the in
vestment may be made exceedingly pro*
fitalde. In some cases individual holders
of these warrants have made most profit
able speculations out of them, by taking
up lands in Minesota and other improving
regions.
ORDINATION OF REY. W. !H. WINGATE.
It was our privilege and pleasure to be
present at the interesting ceremony of
ordaining to the work of the gospel min
istry our early friend and schoolmate, the
Rev. W. Manly Wingate, which was
solemnized in the Baptist church of this
village on Sunday the 31st ult. The
presbytery organized for the purpose con
sisted of the Rev. Messrs. R. Furman,
Dargan, DuPre, Beler and Wilkins.
The ordination sermon was delivered by
the Rev. R. Furman, from 2d Timothy,
4th chapter and 5th verse: “Make full
proof of thy ministry,” the prayer by the
Rev. L DuPre, the charge to the candi
date by the Rev. J. O. B. Dargan, the
pastor of the church, the presentation of
the Bible by the Rev. Mr. Beler, of Che-
raw, and the charge to the church by the
Rev. S. B. Wilkins. The exercises, tho’
somewhat protracted, were highly inte
resting, and we are pleased to see our
young friend entering upon the doth** of
the holy vocation to which he has be»n or
dained under auspices so favorable.—
W’i h a mind well trained by a substan
tial education, and a character for piety
and integrity which has endeared him to
us ail from boyhood, we can see nothing
in the future to prevent him from a
bright career of usefulness and populari
ty. So may it be.
Till GENERAL IETIEW.
The 29th Regiment of 8. C. Militia pa
raded at its usual muster ground on last
Saturday the 27th ult., and was reviewed
by Col. Thos. C. Law, its commander.—
It was one of Spring’s most delightful
and balmy days, and the officers and men
performed their duties with an alacrity
and cheerfulness which conferred honor
upon our militia system, and furnished
the highest evidence of the patriotism
and efficiency of the cilizen soldiery.—
Where all did well it might seem invidi
ous to particularize, but we cannot omit
this opportunity to commend the appear-
ance and military zeal of the Rifie corps,
commanded by Capt. Sexton. They
have not yet been formally received as a
company by the proper authority, but
were permitted through courtesy to turn
out on thia occasion. Their uniform is
new, and though plain, as it should be, is
remarkably neat and handsome. But
what added most to the interest of the
scene, and stimulated each officer and
aoldier to a cheerful discharge of his du
ty, was the array of leuwie beauty which
embellished and gave to the scene its fin-
ishing much. It was the last time that
the regiment was Is he commanded by
Cel Lair, h» haring tsadeisd hit resig
nation, to take effect after that date. Al
ter eighteen years’ service as an officer
of the 99th regiment, he now leaves us,
having reached the highest post within
its gift, and retires to the shades of pri
vate life and the bosom of his family, sat
isfied, he says, so far as earthly honors
are capable of conferring happiness. IFe
envy the lot of that man who, like Col.
Law, aspires not to the empty honors
which a breath may make and a breath
may blast, but with rural tastes and a
mind liberalized by education, is settled
upon his quiet farm, “ from toils and town
remote,” and engaged in that most noble
of all pursuits, the cnitiration of the soil.
At the close of the exercises the regiment
was drawn up in solid column, and re
ceived the valedictory of their Colonel.
He stated the facts in reference to the
time he had been in the militia service,
and his desire now to retire from the puls
lie service, briefly referred to our recent
political differences, and announced his
willingness to abide the verdict of the
people. An election has been ordered on
the 29th of May to elect a successor.
COURT MARTIAL.
A regimental court martial will con
vene at Darlington C. H. on Saturday
the 24th April, for the trial of defaulters
at regimental muster and officers’ drill,
and at company musters for 12 months
past. Officers commanding companies
are charged to have their defaulters warn
ed, and the court furnished with the evi
dence of the fact. The return should des
ignate the date of default, and whether
from regimental or company muster,
or patrol duty. The court will consist
of
Major S. H. Wilds, President.
Captains J. IV. Ward, H. 8. Rogers.

EDITOR’S TABLE.
Graham’s Magazine.—The April num
ber is at hand ; we have not yet had time
to peruse its contents, but the caption of
several articles has arrested our attention,
and we have laid them by to read at our
leisure. Among them we would mention,
as promising something particularly m-
teresiing, the articles headed “Oliver
Goldsmith—his character and genius,
by a new Con‘rihutor, “ Impressions of
England in 1851,” by Frederika Bremer,
and others too numerous to mention.—
“Coquetish Seventeen," and “The tie.
struction of Sodom,” are the engravings
of this number.
Godey’s Lady’s Book.—Godey for this
month is also on our table. We have
read but little of it yet, and the same re
marks made in reference to Graham will
apply to Godey. We eonsider that a lit
erary treat is ahead of us in the perusal
of these two periodicals. “The Old
Farm Gate.” is a simple, beautiful and
natural engraving, and is in our estima
tion the gem of this number.
Farmer Sl Planter.—We are happy
to greet this agricultural journal for March.
It still continues to be published without
any decrease of interest.
Private Life of J. C. Calhoun, by
Miss Mary Bates.—We have received
from the press of Messrs. Walker, Rich
ards Sl Co., of Charleston, a well written
pamphlet of the above title. Price 121
cents, post paid—10 copies for a dollar.
A Charge to the Graduates of Jef
ferson Medical College, by Charles D.
Meigs, M.D., delivered March 6th, 1852,
with a list of the graduates, is a fine dis
tation on the noble profession of Medi
cine, for w Inch we are indebted to G. A.
Hoggings, a graduate. We sec among
the graduates from South Carolina, the
names of Allen Dedrick, Chas. H. Green,
G. A. Huggins, H. H. Huggins James F.
Mabry, Joseph L. Presly, Levi H. Smith.
Palmetto Sentinel.—Thia paper has
been removed from Camden to Black-
ville, in Barnwell District. It is published
by E. A. Brunson. We w ish the propri-
tor success in his enterprise.
The Georgia Home Gazette,—James
M. Smyths, formerly of the Augusta Re
public Si Constitutionalist, has become
associated with Mr. Whyte in the con
duct of this paper. They are both plea
sant writers, and we have no doubt will
make their paper one of the best in the
South.
audience were negroes, that the writer,
with whom they were both well acquaint
ed, was President Fillmore, then a ne
gro, and afterwards a lady. They were
made to believe that they were in an open
field, thro’ which ran a stream of water,
and were given two sticks which they
soon transferred into angling rods, and
went to fishing, as they supposed, with
great earnestness and success. They
were made to believe also that the top of
the court house, in which they were act
ing, was removed, and that a teriiblh
storm was approaching. We observed
their’ countenances particularly at this
time, and was amused at the dread and
terror depicted there, as they attempted
to find hiding places from the storm.—
These are only a few of the illusions to
which they were subjected. We have
long been satisfied from our own obser
vation that there is a mysterious influ
ence which one person may exert over
another. Call it by whatever name you
will, whether magnetism, mesmerism,
electro-biology, or aught else, we believe
it is still the same. We know not
whence it comes or whither it goes, and
might well address the mysterious kftent
in the language which Milton puts into
mouth of Satan, “ Whence and what
art thou!” We cannot attempt to
speak of its application as a medical sci
ence, but would suppose it an admirable
adjunct in the practice of surgery. The
discovery of Franklin in electricity, which
is now applied to so many useful purpo
ses, was long only a subject of curiosity.
It may be that this discovery may yet be
applied to many useful purposes. We
believe that it has been abused by many
itinerating, ignorant pretenders, who per
ambulate the country for the purpose of
making money. After hearing the lec
tures ami witnessing the experiments of
Professor Hale, we have concluded to
make a note, unsolicited on his part, of
what our eyes have seen. We belong
not to that class of mankind who take
everything they hear for Gospel, nor to
that school of philosophy whose maxim
is to doubt everything. We can say
with safely that the experiments are a
rich source of amusement, if nothing
more. See the advertisement in another
place.

Drath of Col. C. C. Sellers.—
It becomes our painful duty to an
nounce the death of Col. C. C. Seller*,
which took place at his residence,
near Camden, Wilcox county, Ala., on
last Saturday, the 20th hist. To ma
ny of our readers he was personally
known, hy reputation to all. He has
been for years a prominent member of
society, and distinguished for his fo
rensic talents. He ranked as one of
the first members of the bar in this ju
dicial District, where his uniform cour
tesy had won for him the esteem of all
who knew him. His loss will long he
felt, not only by his friends and ac
quaintances, hut by his brethren of the
profession.—Dallas Gazette.
Theatre.—.Mr. Boolli made his ap
pearance last night before a large au
dience. His personation of Richard
the Third is always striking and truth
ful, exhilating the “ crooked back ty
rant” with nil those outward marks
and tokens that bring him vividly lie-
fore us, whilst his mental peculiarities,
the blended scorn, malignity and cruel
ty of his character, were presented m
a life-like portrait. There was some
lack of energy in action, and failure of
voice, but in all that propriety of ges
ture. classical reading, and varied play
of feature peculiar to Mr. Booth, there
was no deficiency, whilst to give effect
to the passions, his ’wonderful powers
of face are still oliedient to his will.—

Tut President’s Fatiirr.—The
father of President Filmore is a Metho
dist preacher, and presiding elder in a
conference district in New York, gray
with years and reverently pious—loved
and esteemed by all who know him.
The magician Herr Alexander, has
sued the proprietors of the Organ and

Mortality Among Generals.—
Within the five years which have elaps

with Mexico.no less than thirteen'Ame-
rican Generals have departed this life,
viz: Taylor, Worth, Mason, Brady,
Kearney, Hamer, Hopping, Belnap,

Death of the Wife of a Mis
sionary.—The Richmond Times sta
tes that letters have been reeeived in
that city from China, announcing the
death, at Shanghai, of Mrs. E. C.
Shuck, wife of Rev. J. L. Shuck, a na
tive of Virginia, hut for several years

Battle Field or New Orleans.
It ia said that the scene of Jackson’s
victory of New Orleans has under
gone fewer changes than that of any
battle field in the United States. The
Delta thus describes its present appea
rance.
It is tme, there is a great monotony
in the features of the whole narrow
strip of land on the left hank of the
Mississippi, below the city. 'Hie fields
are all laid oflT in the same direction—
the ditches run the same way—the
lands are cultivated to the same dis
tance towards the swamp—the houses
are built and the gardens ornamented
in the same style. But little change
has passed over this country since
1815. It produced as much then as it
does now; sugar was the chief product
then, as it is now. The bulwark
thrown up by the British on the 28th
of January, 1814, was made chiefly
with sugar Itairels, full of sugar, which
were taken from the tngar-honse of
Mr. Chalmette and other |Janters.—

and worked at the business to the time
of the accident. He learned the trade
in the Boston Palladium office, publish
ed the ‘ Farmer’s Cabinet,’ at Keene,
N. H., which he left in 1801, came to
Ohio in 1819, and In 1830 became
senior editor of the Reflector. He was
much respected, filled respectably a
number of responsible offices, and left
not a personal enemy.
Agricultural Prospects ix Cali-
forma.—The San Francisco Herald,
of the 12th ult, says that emigrants
now come to farm as wcl! as work in
the mines, thousands are forsaking the
mines and taking to the cultivation of
the earth; and that rapid progress has
been made in the interior in Ute settle
ment of agricQltnral lands. In Yuba,
Calaveras, Tuolumne and San Joaquin
counties, which have heretofore la-en
known only for their mineral treasures,
an immense quantity of land has been
taken up and improved. Farms of HiO
acres each have been laid out—ditched
and fenced. Neat farm houses are
springing up in every direction, and all
the signs of an old settled and well
cultivated countryare fast making their
appearance. An unprecedented amount
of land has been put in seed this season,
giving promise that California will soon
cease to depend upon other countries
for the produce of the soil.
The Califamia papers state that du
ring the year 1851, the export of Gold
from California amounted to 934,492,-
