SOUTH CAROLINA FASHIONS.

Parson BrownIow, the famous fighting parson-
editor Of the Jonesboro' (Tennessee) Wing, de-
scribes the fashions at Spartansburg, (South Caro-
lina,) in a letter from that place, as follows:

fast coming in from the mountains, and watering
places from neighboring States, whittier they had

portion of the citizens ofthis State both male and
female, who have money, and enjoy leisure, are
incorrigible aristocrats, and entertain the most
profound contempt for every thing that tends TO
dem0cTdt1ze manners and customs. This is the
case, to as great an extent, in the inteior towns
as in the large cities Of South Carolina Exclu-
sivness and arstocracy are visible in all.
This is Court week, and his honor Judge Ward

the fathers of their children.
Next Monday and Tuesday are the days of the
regular State Elections here. There is great cleo
tioneering going on for Congress; there are three
candidates in the field, all Locofocos OF the first

stupid man. He attempted to make speech
here yesterday, but utterly failed, and failed for

BALTIMORE, Nov. Is. VIM. s. Birch was
arrested yesterday on a charge of conspiring TO
defraud Mechanics Bank OF Baltimore In the
course of the examination it was made to appear
that Birch had overchecked his account S24, PA
73. Upon hearing the testimony the Court held
Birch to bail in the sum of $4,000.
In the case OF Richard J. Turner, the court re-
quired security in the sum Of $4,000 on the
charge Of conspiracy to defraud and $4,000 adj
ditional on the charge Of felony. Not having
been able, thus far, to procure the requisite Sc
curity, he still remains in prison.
During the investigation, Reverdy Johnson
Esq, made particular statement of the banks
present condition, which shows that the loss it
has recently sustained can in 20 way affect its
credit or the forthcoming dividends.
The entire loss, inclusive OF Birch's overdratt
and the supposed fraud Of Turner, is $685. SO.

YANKEE DOODLE. This is the name of
new illustrated humorous paper, printed weekly
in New York. The No. for this week contains
sixteen illustrations, by Charles Martin, son of
the great Eaglish painter illustrator of the Bible
Milton, &C., and who is one OF the best OF living
artists. He has, we learn, been permanently en-
gagged upon Yankee Doodle. Altogether it has
far exceeded the hopes of its friends or the fears
Of its enemies, and is thus far the only attempt to
establish an illustrated humorous journal deserv-
ing or attaining success.
