This is hut the beginning of the end. Let the Sooth stand firm, ap'd tho North trem ble.* After trade with onr Southern markets is built upShd importing houses and agencies for foreign manufactured goods are established, the Merchants who .make the profits will inrest their surplus capital in manufactories in the Southern States, and our Northern ene mies left to reap the whirlwind. So we hope and believe. This is what 4he Charleston Mercury Last Saturday was set apart for the taking of depositions, and the parties met lit a Magisterial precinct in' Henry oQu^ty-i, ‘ Mr; Witcher appeared to defend the it ancpprotect the honor of his grand- king of tho depositions pro gressed and after the plnintifi had fin ished with a witness, Mr. Witcher asked a question, which greatly exasperated the husband, Mr. Clemmons, lie im mediately arose, drawing a pistol at tho Mr. Witcher,it seems, also quickly rose, aii^d drew a pistol from his pocket, and as the ball of his antagonist grazed around -the abdomen, he fired, striking Clemmons in the forehead, and killing him instantly. A nephew of Mr. Witcher, and a Mr. Smith, brother of Mrs. Clcmtnens, hearing the firing, rushed into the room. A brother of Mr. Clemmons, who had also been at tracted by tho pistol reports, fired at a nephew of Mr. Witcher, the ball taking ofloct, and producing, it is feared, a fatal wound. Upon seeing his nephew shot, Mr. Vincent Witcher again fired, striking Clemmons No. 2, and killing him instantly. VM.--Muek has been says: If,Tu*Si J ,, said And written on the subject of pa tronising our own merchants, and it is gratifying to find that the adrice has not been lost upon, some, at least, of the business men of oiir neighboring sister States. During the past week we noticed an unusual rush of business aihongonr wholesale dealers in Hayne and Meeting street. The Southern drug store of John. Ashhnrst k Co., the wholesale dry goods houses of Crane, Boylston k Co., Chamberlain, M'ller k Co., Hyatt, MoBurney * Co.,, and the hardware, shoe, hat and other establish mentsih that vicinity, have been ship ping a very heavy amount of goods whioh gives evidence that their efforts to promote and sustain a direct trade have at length met with encourage ment. There are at this time in our city Urge numbers of merchants from Alabama-and Georgia, making heavy purchases. The scene presented in our business thoroughfare u most enliven ing. Tankages of every description marked for these States especially, cover the sidewalks in great quantities. Buy er* are supplying their stocks on ad vantageous terms,-' and returning to their horaeamorethnn ever convinced that they have commenced to adopt the only true and- patriotic policy.— Sellers are rejoicing at the same time that jfce^iboAl and enterprising spirit thenihavis manifested this season is reap* ■ iword. ■ All parties are ap- • and hereafter , we may ter state of things.

Infuriated by this wound, Mr. Smith rushed upon his antagonist, and with one powerful thrust of the knife completely disembowled Clemmens No. 3, the unfortunate man falling dead on t^e spot. Three of the parties dead, and tho other three all wounded, the horrible tragedy here ended. Vincent Witcher, Esq., is said to be a venerable and talented man, for several years a member of the lower house of tho Virginia Legislature and also of the Senate. Is a prominent member of the Whig party and his name has boen re peatedly spoken of in connection with the office of Governor. A Bird that won’t Slug. Last'wcok we propounded an inter rogatory, to the Southerner, and as we had prothptly and without equivocation, answered -several for. it, we thought we were entitled, to the satne consideration. It, js true we scarcely expected to re ceive a fair answer, but we certainly did u6t suppose the Southerner would dodge the question entirely. We are iavfare that itis a very tender subject to bipach to a Democrat' just now, and ■they touch upon it with fear and tremb ling, but.if they have a great leader in . the}r party, -holding' principles inimical to our rights, and who hotv has a major ity of the Delegates to the Charleston ‘Convention pledged to his nomination, thepooplo have aright to know wheth er’the Democratic papers of the South will endorse the nomination, if made, and support the nominee. 1 Wef again ask the Southerner, if he can "be inadoto sing,'” to say whether it wiU advocate the election of Stephen A. Douglas, if ho |bo nominated by the Charleston Convention T And we again remind it that wo will not be satisfied • .with equivocation. We don’t want to know " whether he bos any chance of securing -the- nomination. We don’t want tokhowif -hois better than a fclack J^pMbjican. We * want to 1 ktiotr jf tha Southerner will support him at all, * . We call to the mind of the Southerner ,)V>: intimation that we would not fairly : answer the question touching our en- "Cdorsement of Henry Winter Davis’ vote Jar Pepnlngton, and our unequivocal • condemnation of his conduct.

Men Shot and Wounded—One Fatally, it is Feared—A Divorce Oast at the Bottom, ef tho Shocking Duds of Blood. The Petersburg (Vn.) Express contains •n account 6f a most horrible affair n which took place in Henry county, of 1 that State. A grand-daughter of Vin cent Witcher, Esq.. of Pittsylvania eounty, a few year* since married a man in Ilonry county by the name offclem- mon». About 18 months after the mar riage Clemmons instituted proceedings for a diyorco at the samdtfmdImpeach ing the honor of hfs ivifo as thegrounds for the action. The Express gives the particulars as follow*: 1 Judge* or the Supremo Court. The Washington Correspondent of tho Cleveland Plaindealer who has re cently been in the Supreme Court Boom in Washington, soys: First on the bench sat Clifford, fat and sleek, with no grey hairs, and weigh ing 1 should judge, two hundred. Next, Grier, about the same size and quite grey headed; then Wayne, with light but not grey hair, and about one hun dred and fifty pounds weight; next, McLean, with scarcely a white hair, though far advanced in ago, looking hole and hearty, and of about two hun dred pounds weight. Catron, with sil ver hair, but not so largo a man os Mc Lean. Next, Nelson, witli whiskers from liis years round under his chin, and tho only one who lmd a whisker ; he would weigh one hundred and eigh ty or more. Last, Judge Campbell, tlie only bald-headed man; he had silver side-locks, and above medium size. Al together it is a weighty body. In front of the Judges’Bench (very fine arm chairs), arc the busts of tho venoruble Chief Justices Marshall, Rutlodge, Jay, and Ellsworth. The Court Boom is small—not large enough to hold more than fifty persons. #6T*Thoy have a queer test in Wash ington to ascertain how far a man is in toxicated. If he can say “National In telligencer," straight through, he is con sidered passable. When ho sings it out ‘‘National Tellinencer,” it Is al ways thought necessary for him to go home. Tho Democrats in this section have a similar test. If a man speaks of “the great principles of the Democratic par ty,” he will do to electioneer with. But if he says, “Ze gray prissupusof Zemo- zassio party,” he has tho right arm of fellowship thrown around his neck im mediately. ExTRAORDINAltr CilALLENQB.—Capt. Travis publishes, in tho Memphis pa pers, a pistol challenge for $500 or$1000 a side, to be shot as follows : “ With pistols, 30 shots a side, at ten paces distance; the target to bo shot at a copper cent; my opponent to shoot at deliberate aim ; with the aid of one hand only—string measurmont from centre to centre. I ask that my oppo nent shall give me five hit cents out of the thirty shots; or, in other words, will shoot twenty-five shots against his thirty. I shall require him to'shoot his •hots by daylight; I will shoot my shots in any dark night ho may select, or in any dark room devoid of light. The match to take place in the city of New York, in New Orleans, Memphisor Nash ville, within thirty days after itis made.”—Phil. Press. Tqi Consumption -or Cotton.—The average weekly consumption of cotton in Great Britain through tyrt year was theiargest ever known, being 44,120 bales per week, against 41,819 in 1858 ; 37,681 in 1857, and 43,520 in 185G. The crop of American cotton in 1856 (year ending September 1st,) was 3,528,000 bales; in 1857, 2,940,000 bales; in 1858, 3,114,000 bales; in 1859,3,851,000 bales ; and the deliveries at the ports already show a sufficient increaso to indicate a crop for the current year of not less than 4,400,000 bales—the largest crop yet known. England will take about 56 per cent, of the crop; our Northern manufacturers about 17 per cent.; and nearlvail the remaining 37 per cent will be taken in the other countrios of Eu rope. ..j'Tho Republican National Com mittee, yielding to the instances of many advisers, nave determined to an ticipate the time previoualy named for themeeting.of (u Chicago Cun rention, by electing tho 16th of May as the day.' mp-Thockeray,'according to the ru mor afloat in London, contemplates a continuation of Maoauly’s History of England. [communicated.] Messrs. Editors:—Last week there ap peared in the Southerner a most unjusti fiable and oaptious criticism of the Tableaux, on the evening of the 22d of February, purporting to have been writ ten by the ostensible editor of that pa per. I ask a apace in your columns, not to notice tho bod grnmmer and worse rhetorie with which it abounds, but to express my astonishment: that Dr. Wofford, whom I have, heretofore, considered a gentleman, should have as sumed the authorship of an article^ in which the Ladies are spoken of in such inelegant and disrespectful language, and direct,insulting, personal allusions made to the gentlemen. When they consented to come before the public to aid in a worthy and patriotio cause, it was not with the expectation that their performance and appearance would be publicly criticised, as if they were stage actors and actresses, much less did they suppose that any one could be found willing to indulge in remarks so offensive to them and disreputable to the author. If his object was to make a display of wit, he failed most signally. If lie wished to excite the indignation of the: community, he succeeded well. Only one picture escaped his attempt at sar casm, and upon one he was particularly severe. But a man who would "fast for several days, in order to get,at the supper table, tho worth" of a small sum of money grudg ingly contributed to tho preservation from ruin, of the home and grave of the “Father of his country,” could not bo expected to appreciate the “spirit” that unimated his breast and sustained him in his struggles for those blessings so unworthily enjoyed by some. MT. VERNON. . BSTln the Harper’s Ferry Investiga tion, George L. Soars, of Boston, was before the Committee on Saturday, and testified as to his operations in favor of the Kansas Aid Committee, resulting in sending there over $60,000 worth of supplies. More money wns afterwards sent, and 200 Sharp’s rifles, lie subse quently furnished Brown at different times with several thousand dollars, and 500 revolvers ; and a letter of credit for $7,000 was also furnished to him, but he drow no money on it in consequence of tho exigencies in Kansas. Witness did not know of Brown’s intent to invale any State ; but did know his plan was te free slaves, if necessary. figy-There is a lady in our town, at present, who would not like to be called very old, who lias seen ton out of the fifteen Presidents of the United States, and has also seen Henry Clay, Webster; John C. Calhoun, Aaron Burr, General Scott, Col. Crogiian, Sir Robert Pee), Lord Wellington mid Queen Victoria. She has sat In the chair occupied by Queen Victoria,in Westminister Abbey, on the day of her coronation, and would have seen Louis Phillippe, had it not been for the death of his son at the time. This is indeed very remarkable,, and we challenge the State, yea, even tiie United Slates, to present a lady who. has seen so many of the learned and distinguished men botli of England and' America.—Vhester Standard. „ .rr* Last evening the “Americas” Lodge of Sons of Malta, in this city, triire in full transaction of business, when a thundering alarm came to the door. . It was soon discovered that a posse of uhout fifty ladies had stormed the out-j works and summoned the brethren to surrender. The working tools were concealed, and tho sacred mystories of tho order shrouded from profane eyes, after which the ladies were admitted.— After short complimentary speeches oh either side, the lodiefn prevailed on the brethren to adjourn to the Atheneum* where a collation, followed by a dance, wound up the business of the night.— Cleveland Herald, Feb. I5M. Terrible Accident.—In Cincinnati, on Thursday last, while tho work men were tearing down the Catholic Church, of St. Xavier, tho walls fell, burying twenty of them. Tho bodies had not been recovered at lust accounts. Truiom Rock.—The Chattanooga Ad vertiser says: . ; * . Tho rock called “Triboli,” and exten sively used by Jewellers in polishing their wares, and in great use for polish ing and brightening all metallic substan ces, dnot plates, knobs, Ac., Ac., has been discovered to exist in large and rioli beds near by Chattanooga.. The rock is valuable and its preparation will some day constitute a regular business and a paying one. jjtjyllognrth wns once 'applied to by a miserly old nobleman to paint on his stnircnsoa representation of Pharaoh's host in the Red Sen. In attempting to fix on the price, Hogarth became quite dissatisfied. Tho miser was unwilling to give more than half tho real value of tho picture, At lust Hogarth out of nil patience, agreed to pay hit patron’s terms. Within a dny or two tho pic ture was r ady. Tho nobleman was surprised ut such expedition, and in] mediately called to examine it. Th canvass was painted all over red.— “Zounds 1” said the purchaser, “what have we here? I ordered a scene of the Red Seal” “The Red Sea you have," said Ho garth, still smarting to have his talents undervalued. “But where are the Israelites?” “They are all gone over.” “And where are the Egyptians?” “Thoy are all drowned!” The miser's, confusion could only be equalled by the haste with which he paid his bill. General Military Encampment In May Sevornl gentlemen connected with the Military Companies of our State, says the l-'oderal Union, have suggested to us, the idea of a general Military En campment, in May, at somo accessible point in the State, of all tho Volunteer Companies no.v organized in our limits. There are some fifty or sixty organized corps in tho State, and if a large por tion of them could be assembled, there is no doubt but the meeting would stimulate tho military spirit of our citi zen?, and be or great"benefit to the com panies already organized. Kansas and Slavery.—The bill abol ishing slavery in Kansas, which was ve toed by Governor Mcdury, lms beon passed ever his veto by a vote of thirty to seven. SAVANNAH ROUTE!

Be neighborly ; be social; let out our social feeling; make them grow; go see your neighbor; and learn of his success; exchange ideas; and confer witli one another;— If our farmer: would do this, if each farmer would only visit around his whole neigliborhod onco every three months, a world of good would be ac complished. Accidental Homicide.—The Washing ton “Enterprise” says that the gate keeper of the Factory at Sparta, Ga., got into an altercation with a drunken man, on Saturday, 25th ult., and os Miss Dickens was passing, the gate keeper discharged his pistol, the shot acciden tally took offeot upon her person, pro ducing death in three minutes. *®“Mr.' Clark Mills, author of the equestrian statueof Washington, is nota native of South Carolina os stated, but of New York.
