This is the last : The philosopher also made the mistake of keeping up “ his arguments” with the blunt back-woodsmau whep they were not ap preciated or listened to. In fact when Horace, to his own satisfaction, demon strated that a certain piece of land, so call ed, for it was really nothing but a surface of limestone rock, could be made to pro duce a crop of strawberries, the frontiers man put what he supposed would be a crusher, by asking: “ How would you get a furrer deep enough to plant anything?” This question broke the whole line of the farmer’s defenses, and Horace, with the keen perception of Yon Molt.ke, and the quickness to take advantage of a break in the line of defense so peculiar to the first Napoleon, triumphantly replied : “Piepare the ground with subsoil plow ing.” “With what?” said the countryman, drawing back as from a lunatic. “ Why,” said Horace, “ I’d do it with a subsoil plow put into the surface of the lot, say three feet.” The sweat started on the poor country man’s face as he gasped out: “ Make a furrer with a plow three feet thick in them tarnal rocks! Why, you cussed old fool, a yarthquake couldn’t get down tbat far if it tried six months!” The Episcopal Imbroglio. —Bishop Potter has imitated the example of Right Rer. Dr. Littlejohn, of Long Island, in re lation to the new Order of English Ritual ists, whose members have attempted to offer to vote. In his diocese the Bishop prohibited any priest or missionary of the organization from performing ministerial actsas clergymen of the Episcopal Church ir. this See, and pastors of the various churches are liable to censure if they per mit them to preach from their pulpit. The body which has thus been laid under ban is known as the Order of Evangelists. It has a branch in Boston. Father Bradley, the well known priest of St. Sacramento mission, has also received a hint from the Bishop to abandon his practice of commu nication alone after the manner of Catholic priests. —New York telegram to Western Press. Sri-tUcelilii Constitutionnlisi. & State Items. Bullock has appointed Ephraim (com monly known as “ Tom Tit ”) Tweedy, a trustee of the Lunatic Asylum, to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Col. B. B. deGraffenried. Superintendents of cotton presses in Sa vannah have resolved to make an addi tion'll charge of twenty cents per bale up on all cotton sent to them for compress ment after the first of December. J. C Fain, Democratic nominee for the next Ilouse of Representatives in Gordon county,, has presented each of the five de nominations in Calhoun with fifty dollars, to be used for church purposes. Books for subscription to the capital stock of the Northeastern Railroad have been opened in Greene, Richmond, Ogle thorpe, Clark, Madison, Jackson, Hall, Bar.ks, Franklin, Habersham, White and Rabun counties. Andrew Hill, colored, convicted at the last term of {court, of the horrible killing ofCapt. Thomas A. Ilollzclaw, was hung on Friday, 25th ult., in the Jail lot in Green ville. He made no confession, protesting his innocence to the last, and seemed very willing to die, singing a hymn after ascend ing the gallows. A “ golden eagle ” was killed on the planti‘ion of Col. N. W. Lony, of Co lumbus, in Barbour connty, Ala., a few days ago, by a couple of boys. The bird measured seven feet one inch from tip to tip, with a foot measuring about eight Inches from the point of one extended talon to that of the opposite one, with claws an inch and a half long. jSqusre*. |l Week I2 Week*. i 8 Week*. 1 Month.

Tillman has been appointed Post.masler at Edgefield Court House. He is already duly commissioned, and has en tered upon his duties. This appointment gives general satisfaction. In the suburbs of Charleston, a few mornings ago, a colored preacher, named Jake Gaillard, was shot and killed by a colored patrol, while in the act of stealing cabbages from the farm of E. L. Roche, Esq. L. G. Holloway, Esq., one of the most prominent and respectable citizens of Edge field connty, and a man of much worth and many virtues, departed this life at his home near Gilgal Church, on Saturday morning last. Mr. Holloway had long been in fee ble health. We learn from the Sumter Watchman, of the 30th ult.,that, the gin house, and all the fixtures, of Mr. Thomas D. Foxworth were destroyed by fire on Saturday last, at about 11 o’clock iu the day, with about three bales of cotton and a lot of cotton seed. The fire caught from a match in the cotton. Capt. Horace A. Pratt, Assistant Super intendent of the Etiwan Works, near Chaileston, who was so badly scalded at the explosion on Tuesday, died of his inju ries on Thursday. He was the brother of Prof. N. A. Pratt, and about 43 years of ago, and leaves a wife and two children. He was a native of Roswell, Ga., and went to Charleston about three years ago, and for the past two years had been employed by the Etiwan Company. This is the third death from the dreadful accident. The North Carolina United States SENAXw*..—Hon. 55 who has just been elected United States Senator by the North Carolina Legislature to succeed Judge Abbott, the 4th of March next, is not unknown to fame, having already served two terms in Congress and occupied the gubernatorial chair of his State for two terms. He was born in Buncombe connty, Nortli Carolina, May 13,1830. He received a limited edu cation, and spent, one year at the State Uni versity through the kindness of its Presi dent. He afterwards studied law and was admitted to practice in 1852. In 1854 he was elected to the Legislature, and in 1853 to Congress, to fill the une.xpired term of Hon. T. L. Clingman. He was re-elected to the Thirty-sixth Congress and served on the Committee of Revolutionary Claims.— He was Governor of North Carolina from 1881 to 18G3. Mr. Vance was originally a Whig, and a strong Union mau until the secession of North Carolina, when he joined the Confederate cause. On the evening of his election he made a speech at Raleigh, taking strong grounds in favor of modera tion and conciliation in the Sooth, and the honest support of the National Govern ment. He said, however, he anticipated there would be some opposition to his tak ing his seat in the Senate.— Baltimore Sun. Edgefield Court.— The court is now in the third week of its present session. If vve mistake not, but two cases of import ance were disposed of last week. First, the case of the State vs. J. M. Holson, charged with the murder of Robert D. Brunson. This trial occupied four days, and attracted much attention. Counsel for the State were Mr. Talley, the Solicitor, Messrs. Butler & Youmans and Messrs. Gary & Gary; for the defendant, Messrs. Carroll & Bscon and S. B. Griffin, Esq. The jury ac quitted the defendant. Second, the State vs. Joe Yarborough, charged with the murder of Cyrus Valen tine. Joe Yarborough is the negro man who shot another negro man at a Radical meeting, at Ridge Spring, some two months ago. Yarborough was found guilty of manslaughter. Sentenced to five years in the penitentiary. Monday and Tuesday of this week were devoted to the case of the State vs. Berry Hill (colored), charged with the murder of a white man named Griffin, in Beech Island. The jury returned a verdict of not guilty.— Advertiser.

Thursday -This day being set appart as a day of thanksgiving, there was nothing of interest doing in tho cotton market. Friday— The market opened strong, with holders very stiff at 14% for Liverpool and 15 for New York middling, and ruled quiet until about noon, when the market became very active, continuing so up to 3 o’clock, after which, in response to lower quotations from abroad, the market ruled dull, closing with a downward tendency at 14% @14% for Liverpool and 14% for New York middling.
