Funeral Obsequies.

The funeral obseques Of Lieut.. J. Willis CAN-
TEY, took place on Thursday last, in accordance
with the programme published last week. The re-
mains were escorted to their last resting place BY
large procession of the citizens of our district, the
22I Regiment Of South Carolina militia, Odd Eel.

l.onr all business was suspended. as an appropri-
ate mark OF respect, to he memory Of our gallant
young townsman, and the numbers who come in
from the surrounding country, demonstrated how |.
unusually beloved he was, by all who knew him. I,
The body was conveyed to the DeKalb monument,
where after the solemn service for the burial Of the
dead by Rev. THos. F. Davis, very appropriate
aud feeling address or eulogy, was delivered BY =
brother officer Of the deceased, Lieut. J. B. KER-t
SHAW. The remains were then conveyed to the :
tomb; the reading OF the burial service, and the
soldiers farewell discharge, concluded these inte-
resting ceremonies, and thus was consigned to the
grave, the mortal remains of young soldier, who
has left behind him an impershable name, won By
true bravery, and the memory of whose virtue.
purity, and estimable character, will long be cher
ishcd BY his companions in arms, and by all who
knew him.

should the results OF the revolution extend be-
yond France, and general war in Europe fol-
low, that the immediate effects would be disas.
rous to this country. They predict that all
European credits being then but blank paper,
that all remittances TO any part of Europe would
be in specie, and that every bank in the Uni
ted States would suspend in 80 days. They al.
so predict that the disturbance in the mercantile
world of Europe, following such war, would
break every merchant in this country who has
any connections with Europe, on the other
hand the more sanguine predict that gen.
eral war in Europe would throw all the carry
ing trade ofthe world into our hands, induce a
large immigration, bring vast sums of money
here and open the universal market to our pro.
duce, as Europe could not fight battles and grow
corn or manufacture cotton at The same time.
Should the disturbance, however, be confined
to France, it is admitted the influence here can.
not be important. 1t will produce an advance
in sterling probably. French bills are now a
dead letter and settlements will be made in Lon.
don, causing an increased demand for sterling.
In anticipation of this drawers have advanced
their rates IA to 1.2 per cent, but there is not
much doing at any improvement. Browns are
selling at 10 per cent, but very good bills arc
offered freely at 9 l.2 and some have been sold
at 9 a 9 1.2 which were previous rates.

Cloud, the latter by Mr.. Johnson-where we
stopped, took breakfast, and proceeded up the
mountain, and every step increased our adml'
ration and asonishment; about midway of the
mountain is a house, octagon in form, erected
for resting place, and where vlsers can ne
accommodated with refreshments, ice creams
&c. From this point we were conducted along
the track, made around the mountain ny blast
ing, the solid granite, for distance OF ooo or
400 yards, hazardous undertaking; here the
mountain is almost perpendicular, and this track
is 1000 feet from the base, and nearly as many
from the summit. Bannsters are placed on the
left all The way round to prevent persons falling
over, and enabling them to take full view OF
the precipice below.
The undertaken of this project informed US he
intends to prosecute the work, anu cutting out
room about the centre. To stand Upon this
track, which is about three feet wide, you have
a full view of the immense mass above and a
fearful prccipice below-.grandeur and subllmty
are seen at once enough to strike the mind
with wonder and astonislment.
This mountain is several miles in circumtcr.
ence. Upon its summit stands beautiful tower
ITO feel high which cost about s3ooo-vIsltors
pay SO cents to 60 up. The timber tor this
tower were drawn up the mountain by oxen,
although many places seems to present barriers
not to be overcome. Upon this summit is
constant and strong breeze-air cooling, healing
Il
and strengthening. On the north or northeast
we were shown where lightning had made
dreadful havoc among the inanimate mass, rem.
ding it assunder. throwing immense pieces down
the precipice. Really, it is great curiosity
never have seen one equal to it. There are
a lew trees and shrub. berry on the rock in ma
ny places. Why is this great curiosity not
crowded daily with visitorsl Fourteen hun
drcd have been here this summer, and as many
thousand would have been, il known they could
be accommodated at the hotels-as good as you
can find any where. The climate is fine and
all things in order.

The Camden Rail Road,

by reference to an advertisement in to-day's pa !,
pSr, it will be seen that the Road is in running or
der'to Clarendon, the first depot on the line, and
that passengers and freight will be regularly trans-
ported to and from that point While we are no.
ticing this, we cannot forbear making a few re.
marks with regard to the progress of the construc-
ton of the Road as the delays which have occar-a'
red, have occasioned much dissatisfaction in our
community. There is, no doubt, some cause for,
this for it was expected, and reasonably too, we
think, that the ROAD would be completed during the
past winter but instead Of that, we have a fourth
Of the work ready for the transportation Of goods
and passengers. This seasons business has been
seriously affected by the delay. and many Of our.
readers will understand US, when we inform them
that it is the opinion of experienced indvidsals
that not over IL or $4,000 bales of cotton will hs
shipped from this place this season. An instance q
striKngy illustrative of the great injury sustain Il
ed by the business portion of our community from
not having the road completed, occurred last week.
On single day, some fifteen or twenty wagons
loaded with cotton passed US on their way to Co
lumbia, because they would probably get return
loads at the depot there. A very large portion Of
our trade this season has been diverted from US in
the same way and our streets throughout the whois
winter, have presented unequivocal indications of
a declension of all kinds of business. Now, zoe
do not hold the s. C. Rail Road Company RESPONSE
bic for all the damage to our interests in this res
pect, but if we were to Judge from the complaints
and murmurings Of great number Of our fellow
citizens, they hold them responsible for great
share Of it. The question is reduced to this; has
there not been ample time, making due allowance
for unavoidable hndrances, for the Road to be com.
pleted, or nearly so! If not, then the Company;
cannot justly be held accountable if they have cans.
ed their contractors along the line to fulfil their
strictly and within reasonable time, then
we say, that however, much we may be disappoin.
led we cannot pronounce the Company or their
employee, culpabe. If any Of our citizens know
to the contrary, let them say SO. We trust how.
ever, that such is not the case. but hope that
through the energy Of those who have the manage
ment Of the work, it will be completed in few
months. Aswe said some months agoif our citi.g
