FARuER's GAzETTE.-We insert on our
first page to-day, the prospectus of this pa
per, published at Cheraw, by DR.. NJ. Mac
LEAN, editor and proprietor. We are
pleased to perceive a growing interest in
this State to promote the publication OF
Agricultural periodicals, and hope it will
continue. Our farmers must necessarily
be largely benefited and improved by their
general circulation,-mOre particularly
when conducted as they are now, and are
likely to be, in South Carolina. DIR. MAC
LEAN is well known for his devotion to the
interests of agriculture, while editing the
Cherap Gazette, and his talents are such
as cannot fail to make the "Farmer's Ga
zette' not only useful, but interesting 10
its readers.

About two years since, our readcrs Will
remember, that large majority of the
people of South Carolina were placed in
what is commonly called a qHandary-and
it was some time before good many OF
them knew exactly where they were. We
distinctly recollect that numbers were at
loss to know TO which Of the great politi-
cal parties they were attached. This state
of things was produced by the rather sud-
den, unexpected & unceremonious change
of position made by the Hoh. JoHN Z.
CALHOUN, whom it is said, bysome SANDER
ers ofthe independent people of S. Caro-
lima, they are obliged to follow, whenever
thew can find out which way he is going
which, by the by, VIC confess, is sometimes
a very difficult task; particularly, as like
an able and skillful general, the first init
nation of charge or retreats is, that the
thing has been done.
That the people of South Carolina, or
at least that portion Of them, (and We take
the liberty of saying they are the best por-
ton too.) who read the Journal may not
be taken all aback, as they were at the
time above referred to, VIC beg leave to give
them the benefit Of the rumours which arc
a:c aloat. VIA: foundation :aoy have, VIC

have no means of knowing, and do not
therefore, pretend to judge. Its rumour-
cd that Mr.. CALHOUN is about to quit the
administration and 60 over TO Gen. HAR-
n1soN. 1t is now said that the inducements,
to Mr.. CALHouN's adding his forces to
that of VAN buren,, was to put down Mr.
CLAY, whose star was getting too much IN
the ascendant TO suit his views. That since
the Harrisburg Convention has nominated
Gen. HARRISON, and thus postponed inte-
finitely, the claims of MIR. CLAY, Mr.. CAL
uouN is said to have manifested decided
preference for the General, over MIR. VAN
Bur EN-. The opposition, which it is stated
in letters from Washington, Mr.. BENTON
exhibited 10 the election Of Mr.. PIcKENs
and Mr.. LEWIS, as Speaker, probably ia
ciltated the change. The wings are in
high spirits at the prospect of again haV-
ing MIR. CALHOUN in their ranks. Are the
people of South Carolina prepared TO aid
in placing Gen. HARRISON in the Prcsi-
Dental Chair!

The trade between the United States of

SOUTH CAROLINA LEGISLATURE.

We publish to-day, list Of Acts pass
ed at the late session of our Legislature,
and although they are not very numerous
there are a number of them very imPor-
tant. Ir the Legislature had done nothing
but pass III" Bills drawn up during the sum-
mer, by the Solicitors, their time would
have been we'll emplnyed, and the people
have no reason 10 complain of their public
servants. No one, we believe, has ever
filled any Of the District offices, from the
highest to the lowest, hut frequently have
felt the Necessity Of just such enactments
as have been made. Their various duties
and liabilities are recorded in so many dii-
ferent statutes, scattered through the lcgs-
lation of the last half century, so that un-
less Sheriff, Clerk, or Magistrate was n
larger by profession, il was impossible for
him to know what were his duties and liza
bliues in many cases; and we have some
times even found lawyers at the bar. al
fault on the subject. These bills remedy
this great evil, and are therefore i!npor-
tant not only TO the officers whose duties
thew define, but also to the whole people.
who ale all interested in faithful dis
charge of their obligations by every public
officer. The Bills drawn up by the Soil
citors, have, we believe. all become laws.
except the one establishing District p
lice, and we have no doubt this will also
pass at some succeeding session. No one.
we think, after reading the bill, and har-
ing some knowledge of how the duties are
now discharged, which are provided for in
this bill, can he.itate 10 adopt its proris
ions. The Military Bill which employed
the talents of some Of our most eminent
military men, during the last summer, was
lost, il is said, for want Of time. The act
to provide for an advance by the Stale, Of
six hundred thousand dollars on its SUBJ

CONGRESS-.

This body has at last succeeded in elect

else but words. excited feeling, and an ex-
pcnse 10 the country little short of hun
dred thousand dollars. r. NJ. T. Hunter
is the man selected, to preside over the
deliberations of the House. He is said to
be quite young man, ard not long a
member of Congress. Since the election
of Speaker, the whole time has been oc-
cunied in discussing the New Jersey ques-
,ion, and its termination seems as remote,
at our latest date, the 20th instant, as when
it first commenced. The opposition il is
said are speaking against time, So as to
