find it to their advantage to give him call; and
whilst upon this subject, we take pleasure in again
referring to Capt Jamisons Steam Saw Mill, which
is capable ofcutting ten thousand feet of Lumber
per day. By this we do not mean the average
We would be glad TO see these useful En-
terprises more common in our State, believing
as we do, that they must prove in every instance,
a source Of profit to those who are engaged in
them. Large quantities Of Lumber is constantly
being shipped to Charleston, and ready sale is
found for it, being Immediately upon the Railroad,
there is no difficulty in getting it to market. Vast
amounts of unemployed capital, we believe, is sui:
fered TO remain unimproved, because our people
are absolutely afraid to engage, as they think, in
speculatons. 1t is high time that the people
ofSouth Carolina should awake to their true in.
terest. Every Southern State is far in advance
of ours, on these important matters. North Caro-.

is now going ahead in improvements, which
must result benefcially to the State And here
We are dead to our interests, careless and uncon.
cerned.

A correspondent of the New York Herald, wr
ting from South Carolina, says that strong oppo-
siton will be made to separate Secession in this
State. And that a paper is to be established at
orangeburg, to favor the watch and wait policy.
There is not word of truth in the statement, SO
far as relates to Orangeburg. This District is as
true on this question as 1t is possible to conceive
and how the writer came by his information is
quite mystery.

OUR FLAG WHEN WE PART.

Oh what will become of that flag when we part ?
Shall it droop DER the tomb of our national fame!
Shall it stream DER the wreck, when each hope OF
the heart
Has abandon'd that wreck to oblivion and shame.
When the banner of glory forever is furled,
Shall each gem be reset and translated afar?
Shall the bright constelat on that lighted world
BE replaced by a distant and desolate star?
Rather heap its proud trophies and over them cast
This all of our hOnor-this shroud of our shame;
Fire the pile! fling the ashes abroad on the blast
twas born amid storm-let it perish i'm flames!
