SEIK} OF THE FAMILY. JUNE 29, 135 UL Riglit of Search. || je question of right of search which thought settled some time ago. and which the American people have shown a spirit of the most deter mined resistance, has been once more re eved under the auspices of the Spanish government, it appears that the schooner general Taylor, Capt. Wright and brig Nevi (jwero overhauled, detained and searched ca the 13rh inst., by a Spanish man-of-war, j3 d their officers and crew treated in the most insulting manner by a boarding party of g, m niards, armed with carbines, cntlasses and pikes. This is the second attempt at search made by that peop'e on American fMB el9 within the Inst month, the first of which was defeated by the firmness of Capt. Hartsfein. when the Captain General of Cu- I bn attempted to search the Falcon in the I harbour of Havana, Os course our gov- I ernment will take notice of this high handed I outrage on our flag, and prove to the Spanish I government that even if General Lopez did I persnnde n few of our people to follow him, I the whole American nation is not noton that account to be insulted with impunity. July 4th, 1850. Every body wants to know wlints to be done on the National Anniversary—as near as we cat) learn, the Prograino is as follows : The Blues will present Lieut. Win. H. Davis with a sword. The German Volunteers will present their commander Capt. John H. Stegin with a sword, in Monument square, at about teu o'clock. The Third Beat, the selfish fellows, are talking of having a dinner , instead of which they ought to have given a Pic Nic to the la dies, ns none of the volunteer companies are occupying the field this year, the occasion vas a fitting one for those who have dubbed themselves the “ Ladies* Protectors.” There will be excursions down the river of which the public will have due notice. And to those who wish to spend the day in Charleston the proprietors of the daily line offer every inducement. We suggest that the Temperance folks hold a meeting at Hodgson’s park in the af ternoon. A band of music, a hogshead or two of iced lemonade, and one or two hun dred melons. will insure n large atteudance. Tae 28tb of June. The anniversary -of the battle of Fort Moultrie was celebrated in Beaufort yester day. The Phraiix R-iflemen of our city were their guests <>n the occasion. Agricultural Warehouse. Messrs. S. and H. Hoyt 6c Cos., have re moved their warehouse to No. 171 Bay street, next-door to Messrs. Swift, Oenslow & Webster’s, which will be more convenient for our planting friends to find when they visit our city. They have on hand a large variety of Agricultural Implements and Mill*, and make the Georgia Burr Mill Stone 9 to order of any size, which is acknowledged to be equal to the best French Burr,and aie sold for less money. It is therefore to the inter est of the planter to patronise home manu facture. We took a stroll the other day to the Canal for dr lining the Springfield plantation. The *urk is done in a substantial manner and from the appear aace of the field, it has already produc ed the desired effect in eff utially draining the low lands West of the Ogeechee Canal and south of the Augusta Road. The hank is as even and regular li a fortification, and looks capable of withstand ing any assaultsof the elements.it refl-cts much credit on Mr. Robert E. Papot, the contractor, and die Committee of Council under w ose superin tendance the work has been executed. A brief Examination of Scripture testimony on the Institution of Slavery in an Essay , With remarks on a Letter of Elder Galu sha of New York , to Ur. R. Fuller of South Carolina. By Thornton Slring fdlovo. It would be well if the people composing every part of the United States were to read .pamphlet; especially, the large portion that regard the subject in a religious light, aQ d that, might be led astray to doubt if the of Providence, under its Divine Gov cr m*ent sanctioned Slavery in the Scriptures, Under the law of God. Confined to sacred authority, the work is the most triumphant production on the evidence furnished by’ the and new dispensation to sustain the in •titution of Slavery. Jt is only matter of surprise how the blind zp alofthe Abolitionists,should have assumed hat a n y plausible inference could be drawn !i°rn the authority of Sacred History, to the relatior 4 between Master and Slave ; aud surpr.se is increased to find that men having Vucir reputation already made *od culled able, that such meu—if endowed with the perogative of common sense.—should have blindly taken up such an assumption. If Mr. Strinfellow’s Essay had been read by the thousands that sought truth, aud were content to receive it on the authority of eccle siastical agents, it is most probable, that the Churches might have escaped the pernicious Sample they bHveset the country, by their 6e i>aration, aud making such an alieu act, to ° Ur countrymen, “ more an example to deter, hfiiQ a pattern to imitate,*’ aud forcing the scandal trom which there was no escape, ou the pure and excellent representatives of the South. The authority of common sense it is hoped *ill one day assist to re-unite them; and that the fact of taking up the Bible, in the belief of its laws will subserve abolition movements, will mainly by opening the eyes of meu to the truth, shew unmistakably that “ slavery is not in the sight of God what it is in the sight ofthe Abolitionists.” The reterences are too numerous to turn to, by which proof is furnished to shew what has been denied with so much dogmatism and sophistry, that *• heriditary slavery whs ever lawful in the sight of God, the Bible being judge.” Mr. 8. clearly developes the follow ing grounds : Ist. God’s decree regarding the Posterity ot Cannaan, a special one—in contrast witli the decree regarding the posterity of JShem and Japheth. 2J. Its fulfilment in the days of Joshua. 3d. The covenant with Abraham, in which Slaves bought with money from Strangers is viewed with approbation. 4th. The deliverance from Egypt long nf tei wauls, the Almighty still recognizes the institution, publicly’ allowing every Slave bought with their money, to share the Passo ver—the hired servants being denied such privilege. sth. That by express statute under the Theocracy, the Jews bought Slaves from the naiions around ; (the seven devoted nations excepted,) and that *• these slaves and then increase should be a perpetual inheritance to their children.” 6th. That God ordained Slavery by law, for the captives taken in war. 7th. That when Jesus promu’gated the Gospel thro’ tho world, the relation between Master and Slave, was in as full force in the Roman Empire, as in the Jewish Common wealth for 1500 years. Bth. That the relation oy Legislative Au thority, was sustained by r Jesus ns he or- I dained that it should be obeyed and honored by an ordinance of God. 9th. That Jesus prescribed tho mutual I duties of the relation, 10th. And lastly—“ that as nn attempt by his professed followers to disturb the relation in the apostolic churches. Jesus orders that fellowship shall be disclaimed with all such D.sciples as seditious persons, whose con duct was not only dangerous to the State, but destructive to the true character of the Gospel Dispensation.” It follows that the hostility , (if this be indeniable,) must be transferred to God , who established Slavery by Jaw iu that King dom, over which he condescended to preside ; and to Jesus, who recognized it as a relation established in Israel by his Father, and in the Roman Government by men which Ho bound his followers to obey and honor.” It is important that works of this kind be placed before the eyes of our people, that , they might judge for themselves instead of ! adopting the sophistries uttered by men no longer calm, whose sincerity but redeems them from the charge of hypocrisy, but at their cost of common sense. If the Institution of Slavery in Law or Morality stood in need of further authority to sustain it, such authority could no where be found so clear and entire as in the hal lowed pages that contain the Grades of God. Correspondent of The Friend of the FnmiTy. O.n Board Steamship Northerner, ) Pernambuco, Brazil , May 4, 1850 y Dear Friend. When you get this let ter I will be in California. But if you will take a map and look on the east coast of South America, in latitude 9, or nearly so, you will find the city of Pernambuco, where we are at this time lying We put in here to get coal, after being out from New York eighteen days, making a very short passage to this place. This harbour is beautifully situated; it is surrounded by a reef of rocks and is open to the ocean. You can stand on the wharf and throw a stone into the broad Atlantic.— Every kind of tropical fruit that you ever heard of grows here in abundance. There were a number of ships of war in port, sent during the late insurrection. The houses in the upper end of the city are full of musket bills, the effect of two or three battles which took place during the late war in this city. The yellow fevyr has been very bad a short time since, but it is now nearly over, none of our crew have had it up to this time. We expect to’,eave here on the 9tb, and instead of stopping at Rio, vve will proceed immediately ou to Moutevedeo, and take in coal, and then, ho for Eldorado! Yours, Ac. From Liberia.

Chinese Proposals of Marriage .— When a gentleman feels desirous of taking unto himself a wife, he sends to a paternal head of some family containing daughters,for spe cimens of the sizes of their feet with the prices attached. One foot is valued at perhaps two thousand dollars, the next smallest at five thousand, and so forth, according to the market. After the foot (or lady to whom it belongs) is chosen, she is sent in a sedan chair to the intended husband’s house, he meets her at the door, looks into the vehi cle to take a view of the fair one : and, if she suits his taste, he admits her. As soon as she passes his threshold she becomes his lawful wife ; but if he likes not the lady, he shuts the door, and she is car ried whither she caine. The rich man lives happily so long as he uses his riches temper ately ; and the poor man who pa tient Iv endureth his wants is rich enough.

THIS Preparation is a highly Concentrated Extract, containing all the Active Medicinal Properties of the Conyza, (commonly known as Black Root,) and the Stillingia, or Queens Delight. These Plants have long 9ince been used among our Southern Negroes and in empyrical practice, with the happiest results, in cases of Chronic Rheumatism, Ulcers of long standing, and Sec ondary Syphilis. It is much superior to any pre parations of Sarsaparilla as an alterative, being more active and prompt in its operation on the system. These tacts have induced the subscri bers to present to the attention of Physicians a preparation prepared according to strict Chemi cal and Parmaceutical science, devoid of all the feculent and inert parts of the root, not doubt ing that it will supercede the unscientific and crude preparations hitherto used.
