Death ok Bisnot Ei.i.iott.—lt was
only a few days since that this distin
guished Divine was in our midst, earing
for and feeding liis tinck like the good
shejipard that lie wan. His death will
carry sorrow to thousands of households

the outward form be seen no more, his

Tin, K ai.hia Minus.—The Stockholders
ofthe Kalmia Mills Company, according
to previous announcement, held a meeting
last evening at the Charleston Hotel.
The President and Directors made a rc
port of the progress and condition of the
work, which was regarded satisfactory
After some discussion, it was resolved
that the capital stock of the company he i
increased to $.1)0,000; that tlic Treasurer |
he instructed to open the hooks on the first ;
day of January next, and that he advertise ,
.’or additional subscription to tiro stock, i ;
No letter j>roof can bo given of the i» r- ]
f'-'l satis, action afforded the Stockholders ;
by the President's Itqiort, tlian the fact ■
tij.it ono-third tiie amount necessary was :
at once subscribed in the room, before the J
meeting a<ljourned.
We hope the Directors may find no diffl- !
culty in soon raising Die stipulated amount j
and thus ho empowered to dirurt their
President to finish the Mill, put up his ,
machinery, aud set the spindles running, i
There can ho no doubt as to the character ‘
of the investment. Colton mills not many
miles from Hampton the site of the !
Kalmia Mill- , pay an annual dividend of
20 per cent.: and the Kalmia Mills will j
have advantages over them. Twenty per j
cent per annum is not a bad return on j
capital, nml we feel assured the demand !
for t!ii.- took will soon he brisk.
The tstockhoiders may congratulate ,
themselves on having secured the services !
.fan etlicicnt President. An enterprise of 1
this character, especially in its early j
growth, requires a strong arm to shield it .
from the assaults of the foe without, anil !
the unwise counsels of tlio timid and faint i
in heart within. It,requires a man of j
energy, firmness, ceaseless vigilance, the ,
largest business cupaeltv, a knowledge of
men, and groat self-reliance. These quail- !
l ies are not often found combined in one j
man, but wo believe Mr. 15. F. Evans, the j
President of the Kalmia Mills (Joint any,
is fully 'entitled to the credit to which the !
possession of these fuculties may be j
thought to entitle him. — Charleston. New*. \

Tho fact that the Kdinhurgh is now sixty j
years old, or thereabouts, and that the i
London Quarterly has reached *tho ven
erable agool fifty-nine, while Blackwood, i
w hich dales from tho year JSI7, is as vig
orous as ever, and its power is felt on both !
sidles of the Atlantic, shows that the edit
-1 calci| classes of our Anglo-Saxon race dis
cernin these journals a mastery, a power of.
thought and an attractiveness of style,
which no similar works have ever attain
ed. Publishers in our country have at
tempted reprints of other European Maga
zines and Hovicvvs without success; hut |
tho demand for these journals grows just j
as education extends in our land. This is j
the case, notwithstanding some articles j
that at times find their way into them
which the popular judgment of our people I
would reject or condemn. It could not he |
expected that our people would look at all j
mailers, social, governmental,orccelcsias- !

nil stand point, hut thoicausos which lead j
our educated people to value these jour- !
mils us they do, are oln ions to all who are I
acquainted with them,anil who understand |
the manner in which they are sustained.
The political parties in (treat itrituin at- |
he'll a great importance to the power of '
l lie press. The Whigs in the early days of i
Lord .lefi'roy commenced the Edinburg i
Iteviow, in order that by its tremendous j
cannonade, it might batter down the for
tress of Toryism. So also, when its force '
was felt, the opposing party hail recourse
to a similiur expedient; and thus, un
der (lie auspices of the Tories, arose the
Quarterly Iteview. Tho Into Win. Illack

and intelligent publisher, annoyed hy tho
assumption of his Whig neighbors,' ami
believing that “ The Blue and Yellow”.
the colors of tho Kdiuhurg—should
be assailed in its chosen home, resolved
lo establish a magazine. He objected to
a Quarterly, as his object was by a
monthly periodical, varied, racy, and
trenchant in Us diameter, to appear three
tine s before lliii public for every single
appenraneo of the Review. The world
now knows the energy and remarkable
judgment combined with great liberality
which have characterized that periodical.
Abroad, the editorship was attributed to
Frol'essor Wilson, Professor Aytoun, and
others, hut really they were only contrib- j
liters, and from the beginning, and during
all its history, the members of tile firm
have been the responsible managers. Wil
li. mi Itlack wood, senior, and Ids son, John,
have mainly ruled the destiny of the mag
azine, their principle being simply to se
lect the best writers, pay the highest prices, |
and take no articles from any one, no
iniitti r how elevated, how learned, how 1
wealthy, or how lamed, without remit no- •
ration.
rims the Edinburgh, tho Quarterly, and
Blackwood arose. Itt process of time, tlio
F.i ;iish Radical* felt the need of a journal,
and they likewise started a Review. At
the same time tho educated classes in Eng
land. desirous to become intimately ac
quainted with Continent.il literature, com
menced a similar enterprise; but divided
counsels and continued strife led to tlio
publication'of two journals instead of ono.
In process ot' time these Quarterlies com
bined, and finally a union took place with
the radical political journal, and thus tho
remit tig public were provided with tho
present Westminster Review. Ofcour.se
it is advanced in its religious and political
articles, but its merely literary essays are
not only on a level with, but oftim far
ahead of those in other journals. Strange
a-, ii may appear to certain of our readers,
this jourmai, with its bold assault on evan
gclieal religion, its trenchant, scornful
criticism on the productions of our recog
nized orthodox schools, is the one of all
others that our educated ministers and
thinking minds will regularly regard. It
points out to them the dev ices of the enemy,
where the mind is to bo constructed, where
tin' assault is 10 I>e made. It tells them,
w ithout the purchase of scores of costly
European books in foreign tongues, what
. : Uicisii: is doing in Germany, Italy,
Fiance and England, and tints it keeps
them apace willi modern thought.
We have entered into these details be
cause of our desire to aid in tlio circu
lation of these valuable journals, which
may be had from the publishers for tho
small sum of fifteen dollars annually. To
order them from England tlicv would cost
upwurdsof titty dollars, exclusive of the
. .t riage. To intelligent voting men in our
churches we suggest, tho formation of
leading clubs, ami by all means let all
such clubs put down tiie name of the pas
ter as ail honorary member. Os course,
Blackwood alone, or Blackwood and any
ore, or all, of the Reviews, may be ordor
c. ; ami when our readers will reflect oil
the fact that for the small sum of fifteen
dollars they are supplied with twelve
mu sos a magazine ands, xteeu mi tu
bes of four Reviews, in which almost eve
ry subject of interest, ancient and modern
history, travels, literature, political parties,
poetry, romance, and religion, are discuss
ed by master minds, it will be admitted
that the subseripttonpriee is merely nomi
nal f r such a rich return. — N. IF. Presty*

Tiie Statement of Marie, on which S;ir
eatit wit- Arrested.
The. foreign nows by the cable, stated
that the man who gave the information
which led to the arrest of Surratt is a
French Canadian named St. Marie. He
was formerly a Union soldier, and after
wards served in the Papal Zouaves. Both
he and Surratt, it is alleged, were in love
with the same lady in Washington, and St.
Mario betrayed Surratt through jealousy-
The following is said to he the affidavit of
St. Marie, on which Surratt was first ar
rested while serving as a Papal Zouave.—
It will be seen that the traitor to his friend
swears not only to till he pretends to know,
but to what he believes and imagines:
“1 was living in Maryland, at a small
village oal’od Kllangowan, or little Texas,
about twenty-five or thirty miles from Bal
timore, where I was engaged as teacher for
a period of about five months. I then and
there got acquainted with Lewis .). Woich
nian and John 11. Surratt, who came to
that locality to pay a visit to the parish
priest. At that first interview a great
deal was said about the war and
slavery, the sentiments expressed by
these two individuals being more than
secessionist. In the course of the conver
sation, l remember Surratt to have said
that President Lincoln would certainly pay
lor all the men that were slain during the
war. About a month alter I removed to
Washington, at the instigation of Y Vetch -
man, and got a situation as tutor -,
where lie was himself engaged. Surratt
visited us weekly, and he once offered to
| send me South, hut I declined. 1 did not
; remain more than a month at Washington,
! not being able to agree with Weiehman,
i and enlisted in the army of the North, as
stated in my first statement in writing to
| General King. I have met Surratt in
! Italy, at a small town called Vclletri. He
! is now known under the name of John
Watson. 1 recognized him before he made
himself known to me, and told him pri
vately, ‘You arc John Surratt, the person
I have known in Maryland.’ lie ac
knowledged he was, and begged of me to
. keep the thing socrcct. After some con
versation wo spoke of the unfortunate
affair of tho assassination of President
Lincoln, and these were his words: ‘Damn
the Yankees, they have killed my mother.
But l have done them as much harm as l
could. We have killed Lincoln, the nig
gers'friend.’ He the;, said, speaking of
his mother: ‘Had it not been for me and
that coward, Weiehman, my mother would
be living now. It was tear made him
speak: had he kept his tongue, there was
no danger for him. But ii' I ever return
to America and meet him elsewhere. I
shall kill him.' lie then said he was iu the
secret service of the South, and
Weiehman, who was in some department
there used to steal copies of the dispatches
and forward them to him and thence to
Richmond. Speaking of the murder, he
said they had acted under orders of men
who aro not yet known, seme of whom are
still in New Y ork and others in London.—
l am aware that money is sent to him yet
! from Ixtndon. When I lelt Canada, lie
1 said, l had but little money, but L had a
letter fora party in London. I was in dis
j guise, with dyed hair and false beard: that
, party sent me to a hotel, where he told me
j to remain till I would hear from him ; a:-
; ter a few weeks he cams and proposed to
! me to go to ijpam, but I declined, and
j :I >ked to go to l’aris.’ lie gave him seven
i ty pounds, with a letter of introduction to
j a party there, who sent him here to Rome,
\ where he joined the Zouaves. He savs he
j can get money in Rome at any time. Ibo
I »eve be is protected by the clergy, and
j that the murder was the result ot a deep
! laid plot, not only against the life of Presi
dent Lincoln, but against the existence of
the republic as we are aware that priest
hood and royalty are, and always have
been, opposed to liberty. That such men
as Surratt. Booth. Weiehman and others,
should, of their own accord, plan and exe
cute the infernal plot which resulted in the
death of 1 “resident Lincoln, is impossible.
There are others behind the curtain who i
have to make these scoundrels act. I also j
asked him if he know Jefferson Davis,
lie said not, but that lie had acted under !
instructions of persons under his iinmedi
ate orders. Being asked if Jeff. Davis
had anything to do with the assassination,
he said: Tam not going to tell you.’—
My impression is that he brought the order
from Richmond, as be was in the habit of
going there weekly. IJe must have wished
the others to do it, lor when the event
took place he told me lie was in New York,
prepared to fly as >oon a« the deed was
done. He says he does not regret what
i has taken place, and that he will visit New
York in a year or two, as there is a heavy
shipping firm there who had much to do
! with the South, and he is surprised that
! they have not been suspected. This is the
j exact truth of what 1 know about Surratt.
More I could not learn, being afraid to
1 awaken his’suspicions, and further 1 do
j not say.

New Y'ork, December noon.—Gold,
1311—has been 133 L Exchange, lOti'aXOOl.
Money 6to 7 per cent, mostly 7. Stocks,
heavy.
New Y'ork, December 21, p. m.—There
has been an increased demand for money
to-day, and comparatively few transac
tions, atC percent on call, tiie bulk of
the new business being at 7 per cent. The
supply of capital here is large, and there is
no real cause forany stringency as tlio Gov
ernment is neither selling gold nor draw
ing upon the National Banks. The de
cline in gold causes a feeling of distrust,
which induces money lenders to put the
rate up to 7 per cent. Tiie Bears have been
endeavoring to absorb as much money as
possible, so as to assist the downward
movement. There can be no permanent
stringency in the money market. In the
present dullness of general trade, and the
limited volume of speculation in Wall
street, money may be kept eloso at 7 per
cent for a few days by artificial means;
but this state of affairs cannot last long in
tlio present financial situation. The gold
market closed at 133}. The two extremes
of the day were 1348 and 133}. Foreign
Exchange continues dull, and there s
j a further decline in rates. The supply
J of bankers’ bills i3 in excess of tiie de
j maud, and prime sterling is quoted at 108 j«
| 109 for sixty day bills, and lOiljalOQ} ft r
short sight.
The decline in gold to-day experienced a
depressing influence at the produce ex
change, and there was a general decline in
j prices. In tlio merchandize market, there
j was a heavy feeling to realize, and lower
! prices would have to bo accepted. Gov
j ornment securities Were heavy at tho close

REVIEW OF THE AUGUSTA MARKET,
for the week ending dec. 21st, ISG6.
! [lt should be borne in mind that our
quotations represent wholesale price*. Small
I bills , to Planters and others, are filled at a
, shade higher rates.]
COTTON.—TIie market has been very
active during the week, but gave way
yesterday, owing to the decline in New
York and Liverpool, the market closing
dull and heavy at a decline of I cent. It is
believed that this decline is only tempor-
I ary, owing to the fact that the supply in the
! manufacturing districts of New England
, and Europe is small. Hence it is that there
is confidence ot a rally in cotton, and this,
too, before many days. Holders are not
disposed to part with it unless good prices
are obtained. In this they are right. The
crop is a short one, and this fact is now
being felt in the heavy cotton centres of
the world, where it is having the desired
efi'eet. Consequently the market must re
gain its strength and prices advance. The
j following is a resume of the week's opera
tions:
Saturday. —The market was very dull,
with a still further deccliue. The sales
were 314 bales at figures ranging from 29
to 32} cents. It requires an undoubted
! Good Middling to command the last-men
tioned figure. Tlie receipts were 412 bales.
Monday. —The market was dull. The
sales were not sufficient to warrant quota
tions, and we refer to the actual sales as
the only corroet ones. The salos of the
day were 181 hales, as follows: —2 at 25,
lat 20, 7at 27,11 at 28,5 at 28}, 34 at 30, 32
at 31, 81 at 32 and 8 bales at 32} cents. The
receipts were 470 bales.
Tuesday. There was an active de
mand for cotton to-day. Sales of the day
were 911 bales as follows, viz: sat 27, 7
at 28,0 at 28}, S2 at 29. 97 at 30, 42 at 30}, 99 at
31, 52 at 31.}, 96 at 31}, 7 at 31}, 172 at 32, 210 !
at 32}, and 70 at 32} cents. The receipts
were 725 bales. We quote:—Low Middling,
30(5,301; Middling, 31@31}; Strict Mid
dling, 31}@32; Good Middling, 32}@32}c.
Wednesday. —There was an active and
buoyant market to-day, with sales of 070
bales, the particulars of which, in many
cases, we failed to obtain. We quote an
advance of 1 cent on yesterday’s figures.
We quote Middling, 32; Strict Middling,
32}; Good Middling, 33c. The receipts
were 722 hales.
Thursday. —There continues a good de
mand, but the transactions limited on ac
count of the scarcity of currency. We
find an advance, as indicated by sales, of
fully } cent lb. The sales of the day
were 500 bales, as follows, viz: 1 at 20, 3
at 2S, 11 at 281, 4 at 29, 49 at 30, 12 at 30}, 39
at 31, 52 at 32, 00 at 32}, 152 at 32}, 33 at 32},
62 at 33, 25 at 33}, and 63 at 33} cents. The
receipts were 740 bales. We quote : Mid
dling, 32@32}; Strict Middling, 32}@33;
Good Middling, 33}@33} cents.
Friday. Tho market opened brisk
this morningat yesterday's figures, hut the
unfavorable noon advices caused a depres
sion in the market, and to effect sales, a
decline from } to } cent was submitted to.
The market closed too irregular for quota
tions. The sales were 415 bales, as follows:
0 at 27, 77 at 28, 3 at 29. 21 at 30, 101 at 31,
58 at 31}, 22 at 32, 83 at 32} and 34 bales at
33 cents. The receipts were 970 bales.
