S gir ; On yesterday, a soldier of the Jones county Company, by the name of William Drew, died at this place of Bilious fever. Mr. Drew, I hear, was a Tailor by trade, and resided for a short time in the city of Augusta, and came to that city from the State of New \ ork; and I have been informed that he was in the Florida Campaign in one of the Volunteer Companies of Augusta. He was supposed to be about 23 } ears old, and was a substitute for a drafted roan from Jones county. He left eighty dollars in cash, and a few articles of clothing, and was in service 16 days. An inventory of his effects has been taken, and the articles will he turned over to the • proper officer for safe keeping. Will you be so >, kind as to give notice of his death. &e. in your paper, and request lire New York papers to give ; the same an insertion, that the relatives of the k deceased may know of his death, and obtain tho , small effects that he has I.ft. .

PICKENS’S SPEECH. Tho U. S. Telegraph thus speaks of Col. | Pickens’s recent able and eloquent speech on | tho Fortification Bill, which we regret that the I press of other matter does not allow us to pub lish it—at least, at present. Wo hope we may ho able to do so hereafter, assured as we are that it would be perused hy our readers with great interest and profit: “We this day exclude from our columns a groat portion of interesting matter, to enable us lo publish entire the speech of Mr. Pickens, of South Carolina, on the Fortifications. We re commend its perusal to our readers. It is a speech that will go home to every mind, convincing and strengthening. The abuses of the government are lashed with severe power, and the decaying evidence of the times marked with such force, that we almost fear they contain a sad and mourn ful prophecy. This is indeed a lime when all who love their country should rally to its standard; and the people will hall Mr. Pickens as one of lire ablest and most eloquent advocates of our noble institutions.” FLORIDA INTELLIGENCER.

Cocke, Esq., formerly editor of the Camden and Lancaster Deacon, and well known as a gentleman of talents and literary acquirements, combined with indefatigable energy, zeal, and industry, well fitted to the duties he proposes to undertake. The following flattering and well deserved notice of his new and valuable enter prize, is from the Columbia Telescope : ‘ In giving a place in our columns lo the pros pectus of the Paper, which Mr. Cocke is about to establish in St. Augustine, we are hound to add our testimony in favor of the zeal and fideli ty with which the former editorial career of that gentleman, assures us he will perform the duty which he undertakes, both as to the immediate community of which he becomes a member, and as to that part of the public elsewhere who may desire the earliest and most authentic information of what passes in the existing seat of War. Mr. Cocke, let him fix himself where he may, is sure to ho, as a citizen, the zealous and loyal defender of tho community in whiuh he casts his lot —a friend every where, of the people against power —a guardian of the public rights, equally vjgi lant, independent and fearless.” (Tj' Subscriptions received at this Office.

A finer or a more gallant set of men ne ver left their homes lo march against the enemy.

They are aware of the sacrifices you make, in leaving homes, wives, children, a#d friends, and flocking to your country’s standard. Yet are they pleased to see that the voice of human ity lias been harkened to hy you, and that your cars are open to the cry of the widows and or phans, made by the deadly rifle and murderous tomahawk of the ruthless savage, 'They are also proud to see that Pulaski county, true to the motto this standard bears, has shown herself “one among many ;” and as a Volunteer Conipa ny you ore ready to much where your country calls.

Capt. Bostvvick’s Reply. As Captain ot the Pulaski Volunteers, I ac cept, with grateful emotions, this proud tribute to patriotism, which you have deigned to protect us with.
