This gentleman, about whom we
read so much, passed through this c ? ty
yesterday evening, en route f or Washing
ton City.
-» .O'*—
Kumscy NcWionitfn tnmpbil! Min
strels.
All lovers of good music and genuine, j
and unadulterated fiui, will be glad to
hear that this favorite troupe are to
give a series of concerts in this city,
commencing Monday evening, Nov.
Bth at Concert Hall.
The company, when last here, gave
universal satisfaction, since which’ time
they have made several valuable addi-j
lions to the troupe, which now mini
hers eighteen star performers of the j
first magnitude. The Cincinnati Com-'
inertial, in speaking of this troupe, says :
Campbell Minstrels. —The lovers of
music and mirth must bear in mind that
this will he the last evening hut one
wherein they will have an opportunity
of hearing the exquisite musical enter
tainment, and witnessing the excruciat
ingly funny performances of this un
eqnailed troupe, beyond comparison
the best that Ims ever visited this city.
Their departure will be regretted by not
only the laughter loving portion of the
community, who, if there is anv truth
in the old recipe to “laugh and grow
fat,” must have become quite obese du
ring the six nights’ performance, but
also by the musical amateur, who can
realize an evening of unalloyed en joy
ment in one of tIK-ir concerts. When
last in the city, the Campbells were
justly pronounced the best company
traveling; since then they have added
materially to the troupe, until they
have succeeded in making it as nearly
perfect as possible. Messrs. Ihiinsey &
Newcomb, the managers, have succeed
ed in elevating the negr.o minstrelsy 1
a height it never before attained, 't hey
have rendered it not only a highly
comic and amusing entertainment, but
they have also allied it with the high
est and most refined voder of music. It
is. as presented by them, not only an
“institution,” but science, requiringar
lists of undounbted ability and genius
to represent.
The progiamma for this evening is as
varied, as sparkling and as replete with
fun ;ffid harmony as any of the- prece
ding bills. As a.matter of course, an
other large and fashionable audience
will be present.
The Synod of r<outli larollnn.
The Sumter Watchman says, the Synod
cf South Carolina closed its annual Ses
sions in that place, on Saturday night
last, at eleven o’clock.
ihero were one hundred and five
members in attendance, and the reg li
fe lar business of the l»ody went on
smoothly and harmoniously to the
close. The appointed time for its con
vocation was anticipated by one (lay,
which was spent in strictly devotional
exercise.
On Wednesday morning Dr. Slnythe
delivered a most edifying and affecting
sermon upon the subject of Revivals.
Though weak in body, his vigorous
mind is unimpaired, and the glow of
zeal and piety remains in full force. Pi
Thorn well was called away on Saturday
by afflictions in his congregation, and
thus many who expected to hear him
were disappointed. Hut Dr. Howe, who
was appointed to fill Ijis place, did it
most nobly.
The Methodist, Baptist, and Presby
terian Churches were all filled on Sun
day with seyiotis and delighted congre
gations.
It was pleasant to witness the har
mony and brotherly affection of the
different denominations. So may it
ever be.
Dr. Adgcr was inaugurated Professor
of Ecclesiastical History in the Semina
ry at Columbia. He is a gentleman of
fine abilities, and a fit colleague?of Drs
Lel&tid, Howe and Thdrnwell.
Dr. Mcßryde, a returned 'Missionary
from China, was elected Moderator, and
presided with dignity and efficiency.
We were plesed to see among us once
more Dr. J. L. Wilson, who is a native
of our District, and was for fifteen years
a Missionary in Africa, but now one of
the Secretaries of the Presbyterian
Board of Foreign Missions. He deliv
ered on Saturday a most stirring ad
dress upon the subject of Foreign Mis
sions.
We shall long remember the meet
ing of the Synod of South Carolina in
our town.
Accident*
Yesterday afternoon, James Laßou
<|ue, a young man, while riding horse
back at considerable speed, on Dayton
street came in contact with a dray
which was going in'tin opposite direca
tion, near the c rner of Drayton street
and Congress street lane, breaking the
two bones in the left leg, below the

Our Affairs with Cbnteal America.
—The Washington Union, apparently
speaking by authority, says the policy
• of the Uui cd States is not to acquire
Central America or any part of it, but
to open the Isthmus routes and have
them free to all the world. Meanwhile I
it is but fair to claim that the con ve
il ants made with our people shall be en-]
forced. Not only has Costa Rica made]
apple apology to our government, hut
received Genl ).aniar with great cordi
ality. He will attend the convention
of the Central American States about

confederation thereof.
Anothei sad affair has occurred near
Jerusalem. An English lady, spending
the summer in tents with the family of
Mr. Finn, the English Consul,’ startedi
to go alone to Jerusalem. Nothing was
heard of her till a few days after, when j
her body was found by the roadside, I
bearing marks of vilest abuse and torn ]
by wild beasts. The matter is being
examined into. All the sheikhs (or pet-,
ty rulers) of the vicinity have been im
prisoned. Some natives who have been
examined say that they saw two fallehee |
(the lowest class of tillers of the soil)
with her. _

Have n Home.
Young men have lately written to us
asking : “ Shall we marry, possessing
only small means ?”
I I It the means.are adequate to meet
: j the wants of the man and the future
wife, why not? But they should be suf
c : ficient for this, elsomost painful consc-
V quences may ensue.
v Moderate means are ample for the real
necessaries of life, too, which ought to
: satisfy hitman beings,as fur as externals
' are concerned : insuring social and do
mestic enjoyment : meeting the real
1 purpose of existence —their own ad
\\ vanccment and that of others. But
I have enough for this, Have a home.
_ 1 Have a home, young man, before you
\ have a wife.
' At least have means to provide one.
iy You have no business with an live till
l ’ there is a paradise to place her in. Se
'[ cure the garden, and the Eve will fol
\ low. If you are unable to provide an
' Eden, who ought to trust you with an
j Kv**i Sacred as we regard love, wc do
. 'not believe in divorcing it from com
mon sense, 'i bis experiment is general-
II Iy fatal to both happiness and respecta
bility. Wake from mere dream life,
I,s exert your energies, procure means by
I some kind of honest labor, secure n

Correct Speaking.
We advise young people to acquire in
j early life the habit of using good !a.n
--d i guage, both in speaking and wiiting,
; and to abandon as early as possible any
1 use of slang words and phrases. The
I longer they live the more difficult the
<■ acquisition of such language will be;
~ and if the golden ageot youth, the pro
> per season for the acquisition of lun
o I guage, be passed in its abuse, the un
• j fortunate victim of negleqted education
• is very probably doomed to talk slang
1 i for life.- Money is not necessary to pro
; duce tliis education. Every man has it
(■j in his power. He has merely to use the
-! language which he reads, instead of the
• slang which he hears ; to form his taste
s from the best speakers and poets of the
I country: to treasure up choice phrases
in his memory, and habituate himself
> to their use—avoiiling at the same titne
1 that pedantic precision and bombast
i which show rather the weakness of a
' vain ambition than the polish of an ed
• ucated mind.
Description of Love.
Love is like the devil—because it tor
ments.
Like heaven—because it wraps the
soul in bliss.
Like salt —because it is rclieshing.
Like pepper—because iloftensets one
on fire.
r Like sugar—because it is sweet.
Like rope^r-because it is often the
p deft h of a miserable man.
Like wine—because it makes us hap
py. -
Like a man—because it is here to day
j and gone to morrow.
Like a woman—-because there is no
getting rid of her.
Like a ship—because it guides one to
, a wished tor port,
j- Like a will-o-th’wisp —because it often
leads one into a bog.
Another Pi izc Fight.

hour, and was witnessed by about fifty
of the friends of the two combatants.
They were both, it is said, pretty well
beaten, the winner of the fight reciviug
k several terrible cuts in the face.
