Mr. Biooks at Columbia. Hon. Preston S. Brooks arrived at Cos ! lumbia, 8. 0 , ou the 28th ult, from Washington city, and the same evening \va- presented by the citizens with a silver pitcher and goblet, and a fine walking one, ns a testimonial of their apprecia tion. He made a speech on the occa sion, to which Ids recent course and the , excitemem. attending it adds interest We copy from the Carolina Times a few salient paragraphs : Every foot of the way from Washing ton to this city, he had met with kind nesses from the people of the South, and it gratified him to believe dmt, were he to travel to the extrernest verge of the South, lie should meet with the same hearty welcome as he had experienced here and elsewhere. He would not say there was no honor or moral courage at the North ; he knew there were some men < fas true courage at the North as elsewhere. But what he wished to say was that the moral tone of mind which would lead a man to become a Black Republican, would make him in capable of courage, and wouhl involve a loss, of ub honor and moral principle what ever. It was plain that, the defeat of the army bill was the act of a Black Republican majority in the House of Representatives He was almost glad of it, though he had voted for the original hih, he was of opin ion it ought to fail He voted for it from a sense of duty, not liking to do evil that good might folio .v The loss of the army appropriation would not injure the South, because all the money nearly was expend ed at the North He rattier wished tho army appropria tion bill would not pass, been use it would effect the removal ot the United States soldiers o( Kansas, anu leave the people of the South free to go there and cut the throats of Lane and his abolition com rades. We know the black Republican platform : it is our duty either to conn* bract, them, or meet them boldly, face to face, and battle for our rights. V\ hen he said lately in the House of Representatives that he hart in his power to raise a revolution, it was no egotistic boast He felt that he had done as much as any one man to concentrate the feeiing of the South ; and when lie spoke of rev olution, he knew that he stepped forward and smote one of their abolition crew in the House, their enmity to him would have precipitated them against him, and then his friends would have covered the floor of the II mse of Representatives with human blood. On the set ond Monday in November next, the great question would be decided. For his part, if Fremont, the traitor to his section, should be successful, it w s b ; s deliberate opinion that on the fourth o! March next, the people of the South should rise in t heir mig t, inarch to M asli iugton, ami seize the archives and the treasury of the government. We should anticipate them, and force them to attack us. Death of .lolm IV. Wolfes The Albany Patriot comes to us this ■week with its editorial columns clothed in mourning. We clip from it the follow ing : Death of John W. Wolfe— Our fr end, and fellow townsman, John W. Wolfe, the editor of this paper, has been failed to the spirit world, leaving a fond v ile and tender infant a few months old t<> mo ini a loss to them irreparable. Air. A\ oile died last night (27th) at I o’clock, tn and we have stopped cur press to record tl e sad intoll geuce In the short space allowed ns we can say no more. To our citizens who made Mr. Wolfe’s acquaint !u ce two yeats ago, as an intelligent, en tfget e, and p ous young man, studious to please, and yet determined to do right, no etdogiuih is needed—such characters as his, speak ti.eir own praise. In him the press has |o-t. an able and gentleman ly member, Albany a valuable citizen, and his church a noble pillar and devoted Christian. Rev. J. R. Graves, editor of the Tennessee Baptist, and author of the “ Great Iron Wheel,” was united in mar riage to Miss Louisa J., daughter of Dr. George Snider, on the 31st of July, at Jackson, Tenn. Yankee Doodi.e, At a Fourth of Ju ly dinner in Boston, the following toast was offered : Yankee Doodle —The tune to which our fatheis marched to victory. 7 heir sons, as they commemorate Yankee Doodle doo, should not forget what Yan kee Doodle did. Jvanhoe, the Washington corres pondent of the Charleston Standard, sav S “the Hon, Preston 8. Brooks, called at Willard’s Hotel, a few evuings since, for the purpose of castigating two New York members of Congress who had been ma king themselves busy with his name and denouncing him as a coward. The friends of the parties to be flogged got wind of it, and communicated with these Black Republican gentlemen iu time to have them safely housed in their quarters aud beyond the rattan or gutta pereba of Col. Brooks.” £> Counterfeit Fifty Dollar Bills, on the Bank of the State of Georgia are in circulation in this county, Heard and Randolph in Alabama. Look cut. .they are wen executed and no mistake. FTewnan Blade. From tle Wealetn D Extra. Latest from Kansas— l’. Stales Troops Whipped. From an extra of the Leavenworth Herald of last week, we have received confirmation of our worst fears AVe have ! not time for comment, but give the ex- i tract entire. Cos! Titus’ Company held as prisoners — ; Sheriff Jones’ house threatened by the Outlines - .Appeal for assistance — .Mur der and Butchery. A ti express has just arrived here, bring- i ing intelligence that Lecompton has been (taken by Lane’s myridoms, and that our j I friends are at the mercy of the armed ruf- I fians. Ihe attack was made this inorn j ing about the dawn of day. Our friends j resisted as long as they could, but were i finally overpowered by Lane’s men, who ! numbered SOD men —all armed to the jteeth. j They attacked the guard of the Uni- ’ j ted States troops, who had in charge Robinson and the other prisoners, who surrendered, not firing a gun, and are now in the hands of Lane’s men It is j impossible to state in a letter all the out rages committed by these marauders. The following dispatch, addressed to i Col. Payne, of the Bth Regiment, tolls a I sad and dreadful tale. Is there a heart j iu the breast of any law’ or order tnau in j Kansas that will not respond to the fol lowing earnest appeal ? Let the cry of ! our friends be—To Anns ! Near Lecompton, Aug lf>, 1856. Friends of law and order, the üboli- I tiouists come upon us this morning about ! daylight, whipped and taken prisoners I our men. Lecompton is taken, and de- J set ted by the women and children The ; U. 8 troops have also been whipped.— i Will von come to our rescue before we are all murdered ‘( We are out of pow- I der and lead and every kind of ammuni tion. Our friends are now stationed in j Sheriff .Jones’ houses, as many as can, land will light to the last. Will you help jus ‘! If so, come at. onee. Unless we get j help, we will be murdered. The forego , ing is reliable. D. R Atchison, W. H. Bussell, Jos. C. Anderson, A . G . Boon. Still Later —Monday morning, 18th, 10 o’clock.-W. II Russell, T. Hinkle, land Jos. C. Anderson have just arrived from Kansas, to urge onr citizens to go | to the rescue of our friends in Kansas They confirm the above, and say that ! things are worse than represented, and that three hundred men must go on Wed nesday, August Lull. The telegraphic new’s from Kansas, August 20th to the 28th, is so conflicting that it is almost unreliable; there is, h wover, no doubt that civil war is now I going on between the free-soikrs and pro -1 slavery men. 7he latest dispatches con tradict that Gen. Lane has captured Le eompton. 7 lie excitement along the j Missouri line is represented as most in tense The last dispatch is dated Aug 28. We copy from the Daily Sun : Chicai.o, Aug. 28— Dr. Suter, for i raerly of New York city, passed through here to-day, on his way from Lawrence i He reports that lie was publicly robbed jof $2,500 at Vt estport, and it was pro j posed to drown him in the river at that place, but through the interposition <>f a | person whose life Suter formerly saved, the threat was not executed- The Quaker Mission has been entirely broken up, and all the inmates have left. The administration, it is stated, will make a formal demand for reparation for j damages sustained by our citizens in the riot at Panama, and will enforce the | claim, if necessary. It is supposed that the estimate of the loss mode by Consul j Corwine exceeds reality. Some testimo ny has been taken at Washington, under ! affidavit, and others steps have been au thorised to as-tire correctness. Affray at Glennville. —We regret ; to learn that an affray occurred at Glenrt i ville on Thursday evening last in which | C. W. Jones, Esq., was shot by Mr. Ben jamin Screws Loth parties we undet ] stand were armed with guns and both fir ed twice. Mr. Jones received a load of | buck shot in the thigh, inflicting a severe } but we hope not a dangerous wound, while I his adversary escaped uninjured. The difficulty grew out of private bnisness transactions between the parties.—Eufau la Spirit. Michael Young, an old, active | and leading citizen of Thomasville, Ga., j died on the 24th ult, of congestive fever. 1 Clavton's Kansas Emigrants — The I Times learns bom Mr L. F.

Washington Irving, iu his beautiful Affection lor the dead, says:—"Go to the j grave ol buried love and meditate. 7’here settle the account with thy conscience for [every past endearment unregarded.— j Console thyself if thou canat with this -imple, yet (utile tribute of regret, and take warning by this, thine unavailing J | oorrosv ior the dead, and kcr.ee lorwatd j joe more faiiklul. i I -ttiiuu* News. The Foreign MUI Tux Chinee for a row \ We make up the following summary ! ‘ol Isthmus news Irom the Panama Star | and Herald of the l‘J h inst. : Columbus j j Sun. j Me learn that instructions have been I . received here from the General Govern- \ , | men! at Bogota, orderinjr that all foreign i mails crossing this Isthmus from the At j lsntic shall, on arrival at Aspinwall, be J dehverd over to the Postmaster at that place, by him to be transported to the 1 j Postmaster at Panama, and that those ar j rived from the Pacific shall, in like man ner, be placed in the hands ol the Pa nama Postmaster, to be sent to A spin w all, in order to enable them to collect 1 tin* tax. This arrangement contemplates ot ! course, placing the entire United Stales mails deyond the control both ot the trans ient and resident mail agents ot that gov. ; eminent, during their tiansit across this ‘ Isthmus. The law is, we undetstand, to take effect on the Ist proximo 7 he United Stales Government has al ready declared its intention to resist to the ulmo-t the imposition of this tax, as 1 unjust and in direct opposition to the treat. ] les exisiing between the two countries ; • and, it we are lightly informed, both the 1 commander of the United Sums sloop of war St. Mary's and the United Stales res- I blent mail agent here have been instruc ted bv the Minister of the United Stales |at Bogota, to resist anv attempt on the - pait ot this Government to take posses j [ sion of the mails of the United Stales ’ crossing ilie Isthmus, or enforcement of! • ; tax. We can scarcely believe that <lie j ’ Government ol New Granada will be so j • | foul-hardy as to atlempt, in the slightest i t i degree, the committal of so palpable an ‘• | outrage, notwithstanding the passage of - | the law, as they must be fully satisfied 1 | that sucli a step would at once break ml , the existing trea'y, and lead to a most J unfriendly feeling, to sav the least ot it, L between the two countries. Ol one tlong there can be no doubt, and that is, that it the United Slates mail is molested in its transit across the Isth mus, for the purpose of enforcing the tax the most prompt and decisive action will be taken by the United States to procure redress > It is expected that two hundred troops > are now on their wav here from the inte 1 riot, via. Buenaventura. 3 The object of so large a force Imre is, we ” are informed by the official papers, to np -1 pose foteign invasion and suppress outside l ‘ tiilibuste:ing. We heal lily wish there existed as little fear fiom internal native filibusterism, , which at present exists, as theie is to be r apprehended Irom those abroad. Am Editor’s Labors. A gentleman who formerly conducted a • weekly paper, “ rites to a friend who lias i- recently assumed the charge of a daily _ paper, ns follows : “You must live in and for the paper There is no e-cape from this voluntary and yet lifelong slave ry. For now nearly ten years I have ; known the willing, voluntary, unbroken service which the true servant of a free .. press must render. My weekly charge I, has been more than I could bear ; and of . ten, like the slave described with such j : pathetic eloquence by Job, I have ‘ long „ ed for the shadow, which tells the hour of t rest. Feeling thus with respect to the 4 weekly press, how can I but fear for you, my hr dlier, my friend when you hind ’ yourself in six-fold bonds ? How little do „ the majority of readers of newspapers know of the expenditure of thought-—of the labor ot the head and brain and hands I which goes to make up that which tninis r ters to their highest wants ! And also how e many truths thought out with brain throes e pass unnoted, unobserved, even if not rc t ceived with relentless hostility ‘( Never -1 tlieless, the true man must work, and - work too in the martyr spirit; contented r with the thought that his mere relicts, when ho has laid him down in the dust, will constitute a kind of superstructure and basement, upon which the glorious L aud eternal temple of truth shall stand.’’ Look olt for the Rascal.— Louis A. Godey, of Philadelphia, requests us to warn the public against the swindling de ‘ vices of a person calling himself E Mor gan, who professes to be a traveling agent j for the Ladies’ Book. Mr E.E. Brown, “ of this city, forwarded to Mr. G. a certif ’ icate of agency held by this E Morgan, 8 as coming from Mr. G., which the latter declares to be a forgery. Mr G. farther says that he has no traveling agent in the 3 South or elsewhere, and the public of Gedrgia, Alabama and Florida had bet ter look out for this ‘ organ, who it seems lott Brown's Hotel without paying his bill. , Pass him round.— Georgia Citizen.
