South Carolina— Her Chivalry.
It has boon the pride and boast of the true men
at tbo South, that the little Staioof South Carolina
would bo the last to yield an httmble’obedienoq to
the will ofthe North, That she possessed the fire,
the patriotism, the courage, the independence, to
strike from her ankles the chain that bound her to
the Union, when it was evident that that Union
hung to her to worry out her existence. This
jg renown for South Carolina has filled the lovers of
freedom and liberty with enthusiasm at the men
tion of her name. Even the school-boy has caught
the inspiration and carried away enraptured au
diences in declaiming the speeches of a Hayne, a
Calhoun or a Rhctt, whero South Carolina was
eulogised for her Southern blood, her proud, in
dependent spirit —her bravery and courage—her
great willingness to lead the van in defence of
Southern honor. Alas ! how her glory is depart
ing ! ller statesmen, Hammond, Orr, and others
arc thirsting after the flesh-pots of Federal office,
•and the star of S. Carolina that has so long guid
ed the patriot by its effulgence—directing him to
the path of duty and glory, as the star of Bethle
hem led the wise-men of the East to the humble
spot where was born the Son of Man, is fast be
ing eclipsed by the clouds of Unionism, conserva
tism and submissiouism.
A Northern pnper commenting on the recent
inugural address of Governor Gist, says:
‘‘This is certainly a wonderful letting down for
South C'orolina. Thus it is apparent that the
sound statesmanlike advice of Senator Hammond
has taken root; for we may rest assured that when
a South Carolina secessionist, like Gov. Gist, pro
poses to wait a little longer, he means tin indefi
nite postponement o f n Southern confederacy.”
Mobile A (iirard Railroad.
Satisfied. — The stockholders of the Central
Railroad must be satisfied with its management,
as the call for a meeting yesterday was not at
tended by a dozen people, and most of them from
the country, who probably availed themselves of
the opportunity of a free ride. Wo learn that
Major J. 11. Howard is here and had intended
addressing the meeting upon the subject of aiding
the Mobile & Girard Railroad, of which he is
President. This road will be an important feed
er to tho Central Railroad and the business of
Savannah, and deserves all the encouragement
at our hands we are capable of giving it. Major
Howard has pushed it forward thus far towards
completion by his untiring perseverance and
energy, with but little aid from others; and
now that its benefits are plainly seen, tho policy
of granting him assistance can hardly be doubted.
Sav. Rep.
Congressional.
Washington, Dec. 21.—1n the Senate to-day
the Pacific Railway bill was under discussion. A
resolution was adopted calling the correspondence
with the Mexican Government. The Senate tiien
went into Executive session.
In the House, the army, civil and diplomatic
hills wero ordered to be printed. The “old sol
dier’s bill’’ was discussed, and n substitute adop
ted admitting to the benefits of tho act, tho wid
ows of deceased soldiers ofthe war of ISI2, and of
that period, ami also includes the marines. Tho
bill exempts the pensions from legal process.

I'. N. Commissioner's Court—The Slaver Trial.
.The examination of tho parties arrested for
complicity in the slave trade, was resumed yester
day morning. The first witness put upon the
stand was Captain G. W. Stockwell, of Bruns
wick. After being sworn, hut before giving in
his testimony, tho question was raised as to what
testimony should he exacted from witnesses;
whether they should be compelled to testify so as
to criminate themselves, Ac. Judge Henry deci
ded that no person should bo required to testify
to auythiug eithor criminating himself, or tending
to that result, but that witnesses might answer
any question that they voluntarily desired to an
swer. The witness was then put upon the stand
and testified as follows :
Capt G. W. Stockwell—Sworn—Had seen
no negroes that he supposed were recently impor
ted Africans. Had seen a person who called him
self Capt.“ Corrie, of tho schr. Wanderer. This
was tho latter part of November or first part of
December. Boarded the Wanderer in St An
drew’s Sound, at tho mouth of Satilla river, about
two miles from Jekyl Island, where she had been
lying for two or three days; found a tamo man
on board, and a Mr. Clubb, who lives in that
neighborhood, who asked witness to stay cn board
until Capt. Corrie returned. Met Mr. Harris go
ing to Brunswick. Capt. Corrie engaged witness
to bring the Wanderer around to Brunswick, for
which ho was to receive SIOO. No article of any
k'md was left in possession of witness, either on
the beach or anywhere olse. Never said to any
one that anything had been left in his possession.
It was nows to him when ho got to Brunswick
and heard that the IVWnrfener was supposed to be
a slaver.
Cross Examined. —Saw nothing on board to ex -
cite bis suspicions that tho Wanderer had been
engaged in the slave trade, llad the appearance
of having suffered in a stress of weather; other
vessels wore goiug out aud coming in ; saw three
on Sunday morning; saw the U'anrfcrer come to
anchor ou Sunday morning.
Direct Examination Returned. — Would have
had the damages repaired before going to sea ;
some of her sails were damaged.
Thomas Barnes—Sworn.—Had seen the H'oh
deter at Brunswick oh the 9th; saw some vessels
in the mouth of Satilla river; saw the Wanderer
four or five days before she came to Brunswick
saw two steamboats lying in the sound at the
same time; this was about tho 3rdinst,; did’nt
know the names of the steamers at that distance:
knows the tug Lamar — she was in Brunswick at
my wharf; saw a steamboat about the mouth of
the Satilla river next day. Watched the course of
the Lamar till she turned a point and got out of
sight; saw the smoke of a steamboat iu the sound
two or three hours: went on board the Lamar at
Brunswick and started towards the cabin; was
interrupted by a servant who asked if I wanted
the Captaiu and went and called him; the Lamar
was never in Brunswick before to my knowledge;
she did not return to Brunswick on that trip, but
did return afterwards for the Wanderer. The
last time she returned she hailed from Savannah;
on her first trip Capt. Christie said he was bound
for Femandina after cedar.
Horatio Harris. —Sworn —District Attorney
Ganahl asked this witness if he had seen any ne
groes that he supposed were recently imported
Africans. The witness replied that he could not
answer the question, as his auswer might crimin
ate himself. A warm debate sprung up between
Counsel, as to whether the wituess should bo for
ced to answer whether, in his opinion, his evi
dence would criminate himself or not. Judge
Henry ruled in favor of the District Attorney, and
the witness replied that his evidence would crimi
nate himselt. Mr, Jackson then asked the Judge
for a continuation of the ease till next Tuesday,
which was granted.
The case thus far has been conducted with
great energy and ability, both on the part of the
prosecution and the defbnow The dimtion, on
yesterday, between Messrs. Jackson and Owens, j
upon the law of evidence, was equal, in point of
forensic display, to any thing we have seen at our .
bar for years past.
After the developments thus far, no one enter- ;
tains a doubt that a cargo of Africans have been
introduced into the State ; but whether legal evi- j
dence can be had to fix the offence upon any par
ticular person, or persons, is a wholly different
question. * m

v 0 an I Department op State. j
J Washington, October 21, 2868.
Sir : Late arrivals from Europe bring us reports >
that a naval and military armament is about to j
leave Spain, destined to attack Mexico, with a i
view, it is rumored, to acquire political ascendan- |
cv there, taking advantage* the distracted con- ,
d'iiion of that unfortunate republic. Lnder these
circumstances, I have thought it proper to ask
your attention to this subject. .
i You are aware of the position taken by the Cni
ted States, that they will not consent to the sub
jugation of any of the independent States ol this
continent to European powers, nor to the exercise
of a protectorate over them, nor to any other di
rect political influence to control their policy or
institutions. Recent circumstances have given to
this determination additional strength, and it will
be inflexibly adhered to, whatever may be the
consequences. .
The subject is familiar to you, and needs no il
lustration. Ido not desire you to draw the atten
tion of the Spanish ministry to it by any formal
communication ; but it would be well to embrace
such favorable opportunities as may present them
selves to bring the matter incidentally to the at
tention of the Minister of Foreign Affairs, and to
make known tho interest which this government
attaches to this subject; reminding him. at the
same time, of the policy concerning it which has
been repeatedly declared by the United .States,
and which will, in all human probability, never
be departed from.
With respect to the causes of war between Spain
and Mexico, the United States have no concern,
and do not undertake to judge them. Nor do they
claim to interpose in any hostilities which may
take place. Their policy of observation and in
terference is limited to tho permanent subjugation
of any portion of the territory of Mexico, of any
other American State to any European power
whatever.
It is very desirable that this government should
kuow whether Spain is about to send a force to
Mexico, and, if so, what is its strength. And.
also, what are the alleged causes and the avowed
designs. I will, you to commu
nicate all the information you can procure upon
these points, and upon any others connected with
this subject which you may deem important.
I am, sir, your obedient servant,
LEWIS CASS.

Mexican Affairs.
Washington, Dec. 21. —A private letter re
ceived here from Tampico, says that a Spanish
commander had suddenly broken ofl negotiations
with the authorities of that city and port, and had
blocked the port with two war steamers. It was
generally believed that the Spanish fleet would
land a force and fortify the town.
The Washington States of to-day announces
that there is but little doubt of the existence of a
widely ramified Association called the Mexican
and Central American Colonization Association,
numbering two thousand names, with their head
quarters at New York, and that has a definite un
derstanding with tho liberal party of Mexico.

A MAGNIFICENT PITCHER was awarded it at
the Alabama State Fair at the recommendation of
a special scientifie committee, who pronounced it supe

strictly disinfecting uses, it may be most advantageous

All putrid diseases, salivation, sores, ulcers, burns,
fresh wounds, removing stains, destroying had breath,
curing stings, softening and whitening the skin in bath

water is hard, in making it soft, by pouring a few drops
into a basin full of water. Read what is said of it:

WOOD’S HAIR RESTORATIVE^
Among all preparations for the hair that have
been introduced as infallible, none has ever given
the satisfaction or gained the popularity that
Prof. Wood's Hair Restorative now has. His
Restorative has passed the ordeal of innumerable
fashionable toilets, and the ladies, wherever they
have tested it,pronounce it a peerless article. They
find, where the hair is thinned, that it creates a
fresh growth—that it fully restores the vegetative
power of the roots on the denuded places, and
j causes the fibres to shoot forth anew—that it dis
solves and removes dandruff, prevents grayness,
restores the hair to its original color when grav
nes3 has actually supervened, gives a rich lustre,
imparts the sofness and flexibility of silk to the
hair, and keeps it always luxuriant, healthy and
in full vigor. —New York Tribune,

Acidity op the Stomach and Indigestion.
—“I can eat anything after taking your Holland
Bitters,” is a remark frequently made to us.
To persons troubled with acidity of the stom
ach, Indigestion or any disorder of the stomach,
we would only say try it. Its world-wide repu
tation, has been established alone by the many
wonderful cures it has effected. When used for
dyspepsia, jaundice, liver complaint, weakness of
any kind, costivoneas and piles, it should beta- (
ken in small doses—say half a tea-spoonful, reg
ularly three times a day before meals.

Antony and Cleopatra.
This unique and mammoth establishment com
bines a greater number of attractions than were
ever before offered to the public. The Perform
ing Elephants, Antony and Cleopatra, are the
same which for months, created the greatest fu
ror in London and Paris, while more recently
their performances were the theme of universal
admiration for months, at the Broadway Theatre
New York. Their wonderful docility, and the
perfection of their training, make them the most
interesting specimens of the animal creation that
the world has ever seen. All their faculties have
been developed to the greatest extent, and they
stand forth as sui generis, the most remarkable of
their kiud. They stand upon their beads, play
upon musical instruments, ascend inclined planes
and go through all the operations of the most ac
complished acrobats.
In addition, Bailey & Co’s Circus and Menage
rie comprises a splendidjcollection of wild animals.
The Troupe of Riders, Vaulters, Lady Eques
trienes Ac, is the largest and most thoroughly ar- j
tistic now traveling, and comprises the following .
