Lhbutoik or Carolina.—The uiiinnte steps to
be taken by Carolina, do not thus far appear.
Mr. Lyles submitted on the 7tK instant, a preamble
and resolutions providing tor electing delegates to a
Southern Congress, to co-operate with the delegates
from other Southern States, to form and adopt n
Constitution for a Southern Confederacy, and that j
in ‘•ase other Southern States should tail so to pro- ;
vide tor their representatives in said Congress, declar
ing it to be then the duty of this General Asemblv to 1
dec! r s that South Carolina is no longer a member of j
ibis confederacy.
.Mr. Chesnut offered r-solutions instructing the Gov
ernor to convene the Legislature as soon as any South- j
ern State shall take measures to be represented in the j
Southern Congress, and instructing the Military Coin- j
mittee to report a pian for putting the State in a condi- 1
Hon to meet any contingency that may arise.
Ou the 7th instant, Mr. Carew offered a resolution
tagreed to) referring to a proper committee the expe- i
dtencyof arranging, under military organization, all
citizens of Carolina between 45 and 55 years.
Mr. Middleton offered the following resolution .which
was agreed to:
firsulced, That it be referred to the Committee on
the Vlmtanr, to inquire and report upon the expedtancy
of fortifying the entrances into the harbors of Beaufort
arid Georgetown, and other exposed points on our sea
board.
Mr. Johnson, on the sth instant, advocated his se
cession resolutions, but proposed to delay movements
for the present, with a view to a perfect system of pre- j
paration. He was followed on the same side by Mr. i
Preston. The discussions of the 7th, however, favor- ’
ed immediate action.
£3?” The portion of public lands granted to the Mo- 1
bile and Ohio Railroad by the recent act of Congress, !
will be about one miiiion acres, in the States of Ala
bama and Mississippi. By the completion of the road, ;
these lands will be rendered exceedingly valuable,and
if judiciously disposed of, the proceeds will defray a
considerable portion of the cost of its construction.
A ?ig*.—The Abolitionists of Paikesburg and the
viciniiy, in Chester county, Pennsylvania, issued the
toliowingcalia lew days ago, for the purpose ofmaking
a demonstration against the fugitive slave law, and
took pains to have their speakers and others present:
“A Fugitive Slave Law—A meeting to consider
and discuss this latest development of the slave power
will be held on Tuesday, the 19th inst.,at seven o’clock,
in the basements ot the Baptist Church, Parkesburg.—
All persons are respectfully invited to attend.”
At the appointed time the people met, and after a spir
ted discussion on the subject of abolition and the fugitive
slave law, in which Mr. J. C. McKissic, of Columbia,
an active and intelligent citizen, took the side ol thecon
stiution.the following resolution,offered by him, was
adopted by a large majority:
“ Resolved. That the fugitivs slave law, passed at
tfe last session of Congress, in ronformity with the con
stitution, is the supreme lawof the land; and it isthe
boumien duty of all good citizens, regarding the securi
ty ofthe L?nionnnd desiringpeace with our sister States
to obey and enforce said law whenever called upon by
circumstances so to do.”
Engineers for Russia.—We learn that there has I
been considerable demand lately for intelligent engi- ,
neers and railroad machinists for Ru-sia. Mr. Samu
el J Hays who has been lor fifteen years past at Mount
Clare Depot as apprentice, journeyman and master of
workshops, has accepted an offer to go to St. Peters
burg, and is now preparing for his departure, under a !
handsome salary and outfit from the Emperor.—Balti

Opetn'iotiti Suspend- and.
Th* pretended Union Branch R>n 1 Compnpy of
Georgia composed of Mr. Bisnop and other great men
of in t state and elsewhere, have presented to Judge
Lamokiu.of the Cherokee Circuit, a bill against the
East Tennessee and Georgia Rail Road Company,
praying for an injunction prohibiting the further pros
ecution of our road on ihe present location in Georgia.
The bill, whien is sworn to.aliedges.as we are inform
ed that the Union Branch Road Company are in pos
session of a part of the line, and that both companies
have gangs of hands at work, and that there is danger
of an immediate collision of the laborers of the two
companies. Judge Lumpkin has granted a rule requir*
ing our company to show cause why the injunction
should not be granted.and has named the stli day
December tor the arguing ot the rule beiore bint at
Rome; and has commanded both companies, in the
mean tune, to desist from work on the line in dispute.
Tins interference is exceedingly annoying, and is
injurious to ihe interests of our compauy and our state.
But we w ill not yet charge that the state of Georgia
has falsified her pledge to us. We think our company
eanshow abundant and conclusive reasons why they
kiouid not be enjoined fiom comp'eting and using their
read, now nearly finislied, in Georgia, or be in any wise
molested. It, however,light and justice shall be disre
gard, and Georgia, through her judiciary, shall at
the solicitation of a set of adventures and speculators,
roo us of our rights and our property, we will be pre
paid to show, trom the book, that her solemnly plight
ed faith is worthless; and,also, that the 6iate of Ten
nessee can only maintain her honor and her rights by
withdraw ing her reciprocal pledge, and stopping the
am of the state of Georgia at the state line. There
o threat in this. It is clear and plain, and a kind of
Waitation that will be right and proper. Athens Post.

On Saturday morning the 7th of December, at her

lathe dispensation of God, which has thus snddenly
cutoff in the prime and vigor ot life, one so tenderly
loved and justly re-peeled, how impressively are we ad
monished of tiie uncertainty of lite, and how forcibly
are we reminded of the divine exhortations, winch
says, “ set thy house in order, for thou shalt surely
die ;” be ye also ready, for ye know not when the time
is.”
The deceased has left a disconsolate husband and
three small children, and a large circle of friends
to mourn her loss, and truly disconsolate would he
their hearts, did not christain faith enable them to
penetrate the veil, and see the “green pastures and the
st ill waters,” w here they trust she is at rest. Siie ex
pressed herself but a short time before she died, as hav
ing lull confidence in the Saviour,and that her reliance
was firm and unshaken in him, “ blessed are the dead
who die in the lord.” May the surviving relations itt
the midst of lamentation, rein, inhering with joy, “the
excellent spirit ot our departed friend, derive their con
solation and support from the reasonable and well
grounded hope, that what to them is loss, to her is eter
nal gam.
In Culloden on the 30th ult., after an illness ot 21
days,of Typhoid Pneumonia, Miss H. A. Hodges, in
the fifteenth year ot her age, second daughter ot Debo

of this young lady, we recognize the tyranny of death,
for if goodness ol heart, nobleness of mind, brilliancy oi
intellect, and the po s ssion ot every attribute that
adorn the lady and the christain, could have been bar
riers, his shafts would never have reddened against her.
But too good for earth,God in his mercy, has transla
ted her to heaven, and her numerous friends have only
to mourn over the blast ot the bright prospectß that
awaited 1 er future life.

A CARD.
FROM the Journal of Commerce. —“ The Miscre
ants—The merchants of New York, who deserve
I no longer to receive a cent of money from ihe South,
are Crittenden & Bliss, nnd
allot New York. These hints have come out boldly
and openly for the darkest phase ol abolitionism- They
are now electioneering for the Ohio and Western tride
generally, where they expect, by pandering abolition
tastes, to build up a patronage.” The above extracts
front a re.qtectable Southern journal, give a specimen
of statements which have been extensively circulated
through the Southern States, since the 15th of Ocio
ber last. As it lias been perfectly well known in this
city,that these statements .ire originaied here for base
purposes, a id are without erase or justification we have
; not hitherto felt called upon to deny them. At the
i suggestion and request, however, of friends at the
j South, and inasmuch as respectable editors there, are
I rwmg misled by them, we now take leave to say, that
j they have no foundation whatever 111 truth. We made
the denial in the most conip r ehensive and definite shape,
I and we mean by it exactly what we say. If we were
“abolitionists,” we should have no hesitation in avow-
I ing it. As honest and manly men, the tear ol the loss
on-iiiim-ss would not prevent us from doing so. We
i > rat uditionists, simply because our judgment and
conscience have never been convinced of the justness
ot iheir views. respect all the laws of our coun
try, and wish to see them faithfully observed We have
electioneered lor 110 trade, but have aimed, and do still
aim, to conduct our rapidly extending business as
American merchants, and on principles tiit shall com
niend iheinaelves to all men ot integrity and honor.
We hold no relations, as individuals, which, os rightly
understood, are in any degree iticosisient with the
above. Tht* oiiorts to interrupt ourliusiness. either at
ihe North or South, have commenced in malice, and
have been pursued in the hope of pecuniary gan* J*
any ore deceived by them, after this explicit explana
tion, it will not be our fault.

TO PLANTERS.
I OBTAINED last spring, three very choice varie
ties of cotton seed from the distinguished planter
and agricultural writer, Dr. M. W. Philips, of Ed
wards’Depot, Mississippi. They are the Piout seed,
called also the Banana or Hogan. Dr. Philips, says
they’ are idenical. 1 have some Banana and Prout
seed from Alabama, and they are all identical. Also,
the celebrated Sugar Loaf and the Vicks one hundred
seed
The Banana seed are best adapted to second or in
ferior qualities of land ; the Sugar Loaf are best adap
ted to rich or fresh lands ; the Vicks, 100 seed are not
peculiar to any qualities of land. Each variety is uve i
iwo w -'ks earlier man out common varieties —a
must important item to n cotton planter lam deci
dedly ol the opinion, each variety will yield overtwen
ty-tive per cent, over our old degenerated varieties.—
My seed are fresh and not degenerated, and were
grown on cane-hrake lands. 1 obtained them for my
own personal use. 1 offer some of each vanety lot
sale to pay expenses, for one dollar per bushel. 1 will
deliver them in Macon ill sacks for one dollar and

THIS is the pure and essential extract trom the na
tive drug, and contains all the valuable medicinal
properties of Opium to the exclusion of its noxious and
useless principles unon which its bad effects depend.
It possesses all the sedative anodyne, and antispas
inodtc powers of Opium, to produce sleep and compos
ure ; to relieve pain and irritation, nervous excitement
and morbid inability of body and mind; to allay con
vulsive and spasmodic actions,&c. &c. Being puri
fied from all the noxious and deleterious elements, its
operation is not attended by sickness of the stomach,
nor by vomiting, costiveness, headache, nor any de
rangement of the constitution or general health.
Physicians w ho have not yet introduced thi9 article
into their practice will find it upon trial, to be superior
to Laudanum, Black Drop, and nearly every other
