LOCAL ITEMS. Tobacco.—Messrs. McWhorter & Er win have a good -article of chewing to bacco—try it.. Another Fire.—On Monday last, our •citizens—a (portion of them, at least— were *• frightened from their propriety” by an alarm of fire, which proceeded •from the dwelling of Mr. Judson, the roof of which was on fire, but fortunately was extinguished without doing any ma terial <damage. When shall we have those engines and fire companies so long talked of? Probably not until the busi ness portion of the town is consumed ■some windy night. Cold ! Cold !—Within the past week •or two, wvc have had remarkably cold •weather—and a great deal of it—for this -season and locality. We fear that fruit —particularly peaches—will be destroy ed before we are done with it. Indeed, Nve believe that the greater portion of tthem are already killed. Murth«*.—A friend—one .of the com mining Magistrates—furnishes the fol lowing particulars of a most shocking •murder committed in Sandy creek dis trict, a few miles from this place, on 'Thursday night last: For the Southern Watchman. Helicon Springs, 1 Friday morning, March 23,1855. ) Mr. Editor : I am just from the abode of misery and death. Asa magi-trate, 1 •was awaked this morning, between the hours 12 and 3 o’clock, my one of by neighbours, to take legal steps against 'Tlios. P. Gunnels, for the murder of his wife. Having drunk to excess for the past two or three days, his passions be came infuriate, and for the alleged offence of his wife’s refusing to comply .with a certain request that she was un- .jder no obligation to grant, his diabol.cal arm was moved to give her many heavy (jblows, over the head with a lightwood knot, until her skull was broken, nay, oven split from the top of her head to .her nose, i.erleft eye knocked out, and 'the parts about the eye awfully bruised and swollen, and on tire other side of .her face and head a large piece of flesh knocked out. But the day before yester day, he gave a second daughter of his .a dreadful blow on the top her head, occasioning the blood to settle under her •eyes, which were so -swollen, she could scarcely see ; and on yesterday, his eldest daughter, happening to come i.near him in her passage through the yard, when with his cherished instrument rthe lightwood knot, he gave her also a ‘•heavy blow on the side of the head, leav ing a large contusion, with matted hair :.nnd blood. Bailiff McDonald has him now on . his way to the jail of thj county. We cannot picture this awful circum -stance as it deserves. A man more demoniacal in look, I never expect to see again this side of the Great Day. There was a mingled wail of sorrow, death and desolation. The insatiate appetite of this inebriate, has been of late so great, that nothing but liquor could be bought. There was this morn ing no bread in the house for the poor little famishing children ; some five or six were there, and their little pallid . lips seemed to declare the awful doings of the last night and two days previous : Sir, surely distiess was there, the very elements of things seemed perverted, it was a night of adversity about the •premises of Gunnels; his little son told me, their only horse died last night, a speedy winding up, it would seem, of his prosperity and happiness. ONE OF THE MAGISTRATES. For the Southern Watchman. M b. Editor :—If Know-Nothing ism is abolitionism, how does it happen that the chief plank in the platform of the party is opposition to foreigners, and the influence of foreigners in the affairs of this Government, dll of whom are the very rankest sort of abolitionists ? Ii seems to me that the charge cannot be well founded; for, if true, the Know- Nothings would hug all foreigners to their bosoms as the very best friends in the world. Again: The charge is, that Lyman Trumbull, the firee-soil, demo cratic Senator elect, from Illinois, owes his preferment to the Know-Nothings in the Legislature of that State.. If this be true, how did it happen that the same Legislature that elected Trumbull, on the very next day after the election, passed resolutions denouncing Know- Nothingism iu the severest sort of man ner? Here, again, is a contradiction that I cannot begin to reconcile. And once more: It is said by the editors of the democratic papers generally, that the principles of the American party are undemocratic and anti-republican, be cause of their opposition to the appoint ment of foreigners to offices in our Gen eral and State Governments ; but how does this charge consist with the rule established by Thomas Jefferson, the great apostle of democracy and republi canism, shortly after his accession to the Presidency, upon the subject of ap pointing foreigners to offices, especially, post offices? In a letter written to Na thaniel Macon, of N. Carolina, Speaker at the time, of the House of Representa tives, dated the 14th of May, 1801, just ten weeks after he went into the Presi dential Chair, Mr. Jefferson says: *‘A very early recommendation had been given to the Post Master General to employ no foreigner or revolutionary tory, in any of his offices /” It does seem to me from this, that even Mr. Jefferson had a poor opinion of foreign ers, classing them in the same category with “ revolutionary tones,” in whose honesty Mr. Jefferson had no sort of confidence; and to show his anxiety on the subject, he went about the exclusion of foreigners the first thing he did after taking the oath of office ; for he “ very early” recommended, &c. Mr. Jeffer son is accounted at this day, to have been a pretty good democrat in his time, and knew something about republican ism ; and in his opinion it would not conduce to the sale transmission of the mails to entrust them in the hands either of “ foreigners” or “ revolutionary Ro ries,” all of whom he considered down with about the same complaint, and equally untrustworthy ! But times have changed since the 14th of May, 1801, and men with them; and I tread on dangerous ground and had better desist! Mr. Pierce may be a good‘democrat in his way; and so may also be Mr. Campbell, his P. M. General; but they the loyalists, or friends of-ffie British cause, in that day! In- conclusion, I will illustrate my idea by the relation of an anecdote: In 4844,' when the con test between Messrs. Polk and Clay was at boiling heat, a gentleman asked another, who was from the. shores of the Santee, what MiV Clay’s prospects were down m his region of South Caro lina ? The gentleman interrogated, re plied that Mr. Clay’s prospects down there were very slim; “ for,” said he, “ there are no whigs on that water course.” “ I should suppose not,” re torted the other, “ for they were d—d scarce there in the time of Marion!” Hoping that this article may offend no one, 1 subscribe myself your, and the public’s, obedient servant.

Now, it is not wrong, but a virtue, in Mr. Campbell, to remove native born American citizens from the post offices in the country, to make room for for eigners, and dirty Roman Catholics at that! This game has been played all over the country. In Ohio, a clean sweep of Protestant Post Masters, “ to the manor born,” has been made, and the descendants of the Hessians of 1776, appointed in thiir places! Mr. Jeffer son had no love for a Hessian, or the descendant of a Hessian; but Mr, Campbell has, and exhib' ts his affection for them on all occasions. The fact is, Jefferson and the tories were never friendly—they were on dif ferent sides; and I have.no doubt but that there is many an .office-holder at the present day, in this country, who is entitled to a Pension from the British Government, for distinguished services rendered the tory and British armies by their patriot sires in the revolutionary war! I f their grand daddies could get up, and exhibit to the proper officer of the English Excheq-ier, the scars, con tusions, and . bruises they received at the hands of Washington, Greene, Lee Marion, Sumpter and company, I am of opinion these pensious and “ back-pay,’ would be forked over without further proof or one word of complaint! I am not saying, and do not wish to be uuder stood, that the present democratic party are descended lineally or collaterally, from a tory stock, or ancestor; but I do say, and history authorizes me to say that the State worst infested with tories in the days that tried men’s souls, is now, and has always been, the most thoroughly democratic State in this Union! The-swamps away down on Peedee and Santee are, many of them classic grounds, 4o as, of this genera tion-rendered classic by the deadly To Officers, Soldiers, Seamen, &e. f of all Wars, their Wid ows and Minor Children.
