Where each one feels this proper degree OF priuc'
there will you ever find the handsome village.
We will not here repeat all the remarks
made in the further prosecution OF our ramole IN
this part of town. They were for the most part
complimentary. How could they be otherwise
when that delightful residence, formerly owned
by the BIS, now by the Rev. MIR. w. ana thaI
other one with the elegant new building anu
pleasant grove, owned and occupied by MAJ H,'
came under our supervision.
Having reached the top of the hill, we turned
and looked.upon the scene. On our right was
Cl, C's. new house, "a la Parthenon,' which
came in for its share of praise On our lcff, $1,000

This mart of our village was then forest; and
here was fayorite camping ground for the Bum
combe-waggon gentry. We have been told by an
old nhabiant that there were sometimes MS man!

whole wood was illuminated by their fires. Hence
it was called Buncombc.

bv Mr.. PERRY of the Patriot, in which the latter
saws "he cannot be mistaken in suppoSing the

those they loved AND THEY DO so AT THIS DAY !!
Brave gentlemen Of Carolina, see that your
arms be bright! The ladies call upon you to re-
sist your oppressors. Who can falter at such a
call!
We give below an extract from " ELLEN DOUG

oAyINIIS oprBUsQuE PARATI."

Such is the high-toned motto of South Caro-
Ina 1t is inseparably associated with her name
and her fame. 1t implies an honorable boast-a
boast which she has never failed to make good.
1t implies confidence in her oun strength---a con-
fidence increased by the success of her every Ell
fort. 1t implies that she rests securely upon the
spirit of hera,I sons,-a spirit which has never
vet failed her in the hour Of trial 1t implies faith
in her otpn ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS which have never
vet been tested in vain. 1t is noble motto---thls
of South Carolina! And gallant people have
made it yet nobler by identifying it with their re-
markable history.
And yet our friends, the co-operatlonists, would
seem to throw it aside as though it were unmean'
ing jargon. They surely forget this motto, when
they tell us we arc weak. They forget tliis motto
when they endeavor to scare us with pictures o
chasms and precipices in the unknown future
They forget it. when startling the timorons with
the fields of the dead which crush red on thelr
sight, They forget it, when asserting that the
Flar which bears il will he insulted, without
help. by the most contemplate of governments.
They forget it, when telling how desolation will
~sweep these lovely plains" if we dare to raise
our single arm to strike for independence They
forget it, when dcscanting upon the nconpetency
of Carolinians to deray the expenses of their own
goyernment-when predicting the bighting milu-
ence of surrounding competition. They forget it
in all rhe arguments they advance against the
single-handed resistance of South Carolina.
Friends of the cooperation party! help us
rather, in Gods name, to make good once again
that proud boast. five may not do this, then put
another song into our mouths--tcach us another
creed---glve us another motto. 1fsuch cannot be
afforded us, yet, in the name of common honesty,
adapt the motto to the times and let cen read.--
