Unfortunate Occurrence. A public meeting held in St. Peters Palish, S. C., day before yesterday says the Savannah Republican, of the 5 li instant, resulted in a very serious affray. The fa. ts as they have beeu re. lated to us are simply these : The meeting was organized bv calling the Uon. Edmund Martin, to the Chair, and he proceeded to appoint a commit tee to prepare business lor its consider ation. When the committee were alioiit to retire, a Mr. Jesse Peeples, a member of the House of Representatives of South Carolina, a man of desperate character, stepped up to Mr. ami asked why he had not placed him upon said coinm’ttee I Mr. Martin re plied that had not thought of it; whereupon . Mr. Feeples told him that he was » and and liar : Mr. Martin forth with knocked him down, and was in flicting a severe chastisement upon him. At this the friends of both sides com menced to interfere, and it soon became a general fight. We are sorry to say, that Dr. E. H. Martin, of this City, the son of the gentleman alluded to above, was severely cut, and that Mr. Peeples was killed. It is not known who inflicted the wound which caused the death of the latter. Our account may not be accurately correct, but having come to us in a pro liable form, we give it for what it is wurtlt. Gen. Walker.—Gen. Walker re ceived a reinforcement of 105 men on the 17th ult., most of them being Ken tuckians and Tennesseeans, and on the same day, a 300 ton schooner arrived, laien with provisions for the army.— Hostilities will be commenced against Costa Rica about the middle of July.— The pay of private soldiers in the Nic araguan army, at present, is 60 cents per week—just enough to pay for wash ing. The officers get $3 and $6 per week. An Indiana paper announcing the death of a gentleman, 41 out West,” says that “tbe deceased, though a bank di rector, is generally believed to have died a Christian, and was much respected while living.” fM Singular Case of Absence of Misd in a Clergyman.—We find the following in the Meriden (Conn.) Trans cript : “ The paragraph which we published a week or two ago, giving an account of a remarkable case of absent mindedness which occurred in this town—a minister having gone into the desk of a neighbor ing vestry and conducted the services, supposing that he was in l is own—hav ing taxed the credulity of several of our cotemporaries, wo take occasion here to vouch for its entire correctness. Not only was the reverend gentleman so ab sorbed that he walked into the wrong vestry and into the desk of a brother of a different doctrinal faith, but he actual ly opened the meeting, and had proceed ed some ways with the services before he discovered his error. Memtime, brother No. 2 coming in found bis desk occupied, and in a puzzled mood quiet ly took his seat with the congregation, determined to await further develop ments. • Pliancy the pheelinks ’ of brother No. 1 when brother No. 2 arose and said that be had cotne in with the expectation of presiding over the meet iug as usual, but was happy to see his desk so well occupied, and that he arose simply to endorse the remarks which his brother had just made. The congre gation of brother No. 1, after waiting n sufficient length of time, concluded that from some cause they were in the pre dicament of the * sheep without a shep herd,’ and so appointed the deacon to preside, and had an interesting meeting on their own hook.” Have Mercy on the Children.— The Independent, in an article on the physical degeneracy of the American people, speaks as follows : ••The child's will govern too much.— If they do not choose to go to bed they ■it up; if they choose certain articles of food they must have them, parents forgetting that instinct is no safe guide in a child, w hatever it may be in an animal So we see them in their delicate organ izttion, keeping late hours when they should go to bed with tile birds; sleep ing often in warm and lighted rooms, when the sleeping room should be cool and dark, and eating hot bread, pudding, and cake, and drinking tea a.id codec to the infinite detriment of nerves ard stomach. The injury thus early done can never be repaired; as a machine inijierfectly constructed at first, can never be made to run faultlessly. “This is the secret. Parents should know that instinct is no safe guide for a child, particularly when the child is surrounded on all sides wiih poisonous delicacies. To ask a child at a modern table what it will have, and give it what it asks for, merely because it asks for it, is a very common practice. But it is as cruel as it is common. Have mercy on the children." Mas Fukmont in the Field.—A letter in the Charleston Courier, dated New York. June 26, says : There seems a determination to im press tire wife of the Republican candi date into the services of the coming campaign. She too was called out last night during a grand serenade to her hu.-band, and bowed her thanks to the tumultuous crowd. At the Republican meeting last night the old practice of 1840 was recommended, of trying to sing their candidate into the Presidency. The song was about the “ Border Ruffi ans,” and was set to the Marseillaise air. Mrs. Fremont having been brought so prominently into the canvass, it should be determined what merits the other two candidates have in woman kind.— Mr. Fillmore is a widower and Mr. Bu chanan is a bachelor. The Democrats ought to remember that Mr. Buchanan has a niece, who did the honors for the American mission in London. She is represented as “ beautiful exceedingly,’ accomplished and marriageable. If therefore, the next. Presidency is to lie decided by the fitness of the lady win is to preside at the White House, Old Buck’s chances w ill not la? so bad after nil. Gallantry will compel all the tin married men to promote the prospects of Mr. Buchanan and of his niece. Correct.—At a recent examination of one of the schools in Cambridge, a small boy was asked to define the mean ing of the word “ progress.” He hesi tated but a moment, and then, in a clear voice, answered, “ Go ahead ! ” — De Quincy somewhere tells an anec dote of a man who, on being threaten ed with an assault by eighteen cried out, “ Come on, both of you ! ” *• Tom,” said a gentleman to his friend in New York, on a Sabbath or two ago, “ where shall we go to church to day ! “I don’t know,” was the reply, “ sup pose we go and hear Ward Beecher.” “What! * exclaimed the gentleman, “ on Sunday!” Gen. Washington’s Farm.—The farm of Gen. Washington contained about fifteen square miles. It was di vided in farms of convenient size, at the distance of two, three and five milts from his mansion house. These farms he visited every day in pleasant weather, and was constantly making experiments for the improvement of agriculture.— Some idea of the extent of bis fanning operations may be formed from the so!» lowing facts: Iu 1787 he had 580 acres under grass; sowed 600 bushels of oats, 600 acres with wheat, and as much more corn* barley, potatoes, beans, peas, Ac., and 150 with turnips. His stock consisted ot one hundred and forty horses, one hundred and twelve cows, two hundred and thirty-six working oxens, hiefers, and steers, and five hundred sheep.— He constantly employed two hundred and fifty hands, and kept twenty-four plows going during the whole year, when the weather would permit. In 1786, he slaughtered one hundred and fifty hogs, for the use of his family and provision for Lis negroes, for whose comfort he had great regard. An incorrigible wag, who lent a min ister a horse which ran away and threw his clerical rider, thought he should have some credit for spreading the gospel! “ Life is sweet, and death is bitter,’ said Sir Anthony Kingston to Bishop Hooper, at the stake. “ True, friend,” replied Hooper, “ but the life to come is more sweet, and the death to come more bitter." Mouey and Time are the heaviest bur dens of life, and the unlrappiest of all mortals are those who have more of either than they know how to use. “Mother sent me,” said a little girl to a neighbor, “to ask you to come and take tea with her this evening.” “ Did she say at what time, my dear J” “ No, ma'am ; she ouly said she would ask you, and then the thing would be off her mind; that was all she said !’ OBITUARY. Departed this life, on the 9th of June, at his residence in Clark Cos., Benjamin Mcßis, aged about 89 years. He was a native of Mecklenburg Cos., N. C , but had resided in Georgia, for 58 years. An estimable citizen, he had as few euemies as any man that ever lived ; and was nn orderly member and for many years an Elder of the Presbyterian Church. For a long time pre vious to his death he was almost helpless, and sat at his fireside awaiting the summons, to de part. He is gom to his reward. “The pains of death are past, Labor and sorrow cease, And life's tong warfare closed at last. His soul is found in peace. Soldier of Christ, well done! Praise be thy new employ, And while eternal ages run, Rest in thy Saviour's Joy.” J.W. B. Specif Notices.

Knowing, from experience, the valuable quali ties of Dr. M'Lane'n Vermifuge and, lAver PW*, by Fleming Bros, Pittsburgh, I have for somt time back considered it my duty, and made it my business, to make those articles known wherever I went among my friends. A short time ago I became acquainted with the case of the young girl, who seemed to be troubled with the worms and liver complaint at the same time, and had been suffering for some two months. Through my persuasion she purchased one bottle of Dr. M'Lane’s Vermifuge , and one box of lAver Pill*, which she took according to directions. The result was she passed a large quantity of worms, and thinks thal one box more of the Pills will restore her to perfect health. Her name and residence can be learned by calling on £. L. Theali, Druggist, corner of Rutger and Monroe street*. Purchasers will be careful to ask for Dr. M’Laue’a Celebrated Vermifuge, manu* factored by Fleming Bros, of Pittsburgh, Pa.— Ail other Verm fuges in comparison are worthies.--. Dr. M’Ltne’s Vermifuge, also his celebrated Liver Pills, can now be bad at all respectable drug stores. None genuine without the signature of 2 Fleming Bros.

Dat.—Dear Sir —lt is with pleasure that I testify to the character and value of Day's Magical Cleanseb, after haring used it for some six or seven years. In the year 1850,1 was hav ing a house built, and by accident, a small bucket of ivory black was turned over upon anew laid floor of my house, which when wiped up, left a black spot as large as the bottom of a half bushel. After rubbing this spot with strong soap suds, I poured on it about three ounces of your Magical Cleanser, and rubbed it over the spot well with a cloth, for some five minutes, which removed entirely all stain of the black from the floor. I have frequently applied it to grease spots on clothing, and have no hesitancy in saying that it is far superior to anything of the kind I have ever seen used. It removes the spots or stains with out the slightest injury to the oolor or texture of tbe goods, is easily applied, and requires but a few moments to perform its work. . Respectfully yours, JOHN H. RICE.

Madison, September 13th. 87 HT Holloway’s Ointment and Pills, certain Remedies for Bad Legs and Old Wounds. —Alfred Goslet, aged 27, was for nine years afflicted with an uwfully bad leg, there were several wounds in it which defied all the doctors* •kill and ingenuity to heal. He tried a variety of remedies, but was not benefited by the same. At last he was persuaded to hare recourse to Holloway’s Ointment and Pills, these remedies quickly effected a very favorable change, and by continuing them unremittingly fur three months, his leg was completely cured, and his general health thoroughly established. Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry* From the New York Evening Mirror, Mag 25. “Among all the Punaceus advertised for the cure of human ailments, there is none in which we have more confidence than Wistar’s Balsam of Wild Cherry. We regard it as one of Nature’s own preparations—simple, safe, pleasant to take and almost certain to cure all billions and pulmonary affections. We have witnessed its wonderful effects in cases that were regarded as hopelessly desperate, and we can conscientiously recommend it as one of the best medicines in the world.” It has proven more efficacious as a remedy for C nighs, Colds, Influenza, Bronchitis, Asthma, and Consumption in its incipient stages, than any other medicine, None genuine unless signed I.

It is now u dark brown (the original color), smooth and glossy. The only application I have made to it, has been the Hair Restorative prepared by you, and which, from the result in my own case, I can most cordially rccommeud to others. Respectfully yours. Edward Wolcott. Vincennes , la., June 21, 1853. Prof. 0. J.

It entirely cleanses the head of dandruff, and with one month’s proper use, will restore any persou's hair to the original youthful color and texture, giving it a healthy, soft and glossy appearance; and ull this, without discoloring the hands that apply it, or the dress on which it drops. I would, therefore, recommend its use to every one desirous of h iving a fine color and texture to the hair. Respectfully yours, Wilson Kino. St. Jahiis, June 28, 1853. Prof. Wood—As you are about to prepare and vend your recently discovered Hair Restorative, and as you request my opinion of it, I will state, that rny hair was, a few month ago, very gray, und after using two bottles of your Hair Restor ative, it resumed its original color; and since its application, all dandruff has disappeared from my head, ands have been troubled with no dis agreeable itching of the scalp. I am satisfied that those who use it will not regret it, as it gives the appearance of having boou recently oiled. I am prepared, to recommend its use to all who are desirous of having a beautiful head of hair. 1 am, sir, yours, etc., H. L. Stewart. Prof. Wood. Dear Sir: My hair had, for several years, been becoming prematurely grav, accom panied by a harshness which rendered the con stant application of oil necessarv in dressing it. When I commenced using your Hair Restorative, about two months ago, it was in that condition; and having continued its use till within the last three weeks, it has turned to its natural color, and assumed a softness and lustre greatly to be preferred to those produced by the application of oils or any other preparation I have ever used. I regard it as an indispensable article for every lady’s toilet, whether to be used as a Hair Re storative, or for the simple simple purpose of dressing or beautifying the hair. You have per mission to refer to me all who entertain any doubt of its performing all that is claimed for it. Mrs. C. Symonds. Cincinnati , Ohio, February 10,1864. Watertown , Mass., May 1, 1854.
