The following paragraphs from the Charles
ton Mercury, are Of the straws which show the
way the wind blows:
ORANGssuRG ENcAMPMENr.-We have just re-
turned from short visit to the Orangeburg En-
campment, where we found a full attendance ofcom-
missioned and non-commissioned officers, both of
cavalry and infantry, the former under command
of Brigadier General VIM. E. Martin. The scene
ID indeed brilliant one, the officers discharging
their duties with zeal and alacrity which reflects
upon them the highest credit. We have never
seen body of finer looking young men than were
present at the afternoon parade, and their evola-
tons were performed in manner that evinced how
we'll they understood their duty. There il great
political animation and enthusiasm. in the camp,
and their countersgns and parols are strongly in
dicative of the feelings which predominant. Cal
houn Secession and State Action, are the constant
watchwords.
Our excellent Chief Magistrate is where he al
ways has been found, at his post cheering and en-
couraging those under his command, in the per-
formance of their arduous duties, and cnvening
the hours of relaxation by pleasant and agreeable
intercourse with his fellow citizens He ID attended
by quite number of his staff. who. afer the fash
ion Of their Chief are winning g0sden opinions
wherever they go.
The dress parades are graced by the bsauty and
lovelincss of the delightful village Of Orangeburg
and the vicinity, than which portion Of tho State
can present brighter galaxy. To such of our
friends az have leisure day upon their hands, we
proffer the advice to visit tho encampment, where
they will be sure to find the hospitable citizens of
old Orangeburg ready to receive them; and they
must be hard to please, indeed, if their time ia not
made to pass most pleasantly.

circus Chat great delight Of the sovereigns)

by thirty. horses, and vocal with music. Hith-

children, and negroes, that were following with
rapid strides the imperial music box Of the cir

Tn. presidens's Progress.

The letters which follow from our own cor
respondent present full and graphic sketches
of the Presidents tour from Elmira down to
the period of the departure for Buffalo. We
have telegraphic advices of the arrival of the
Mayfiower at Buffalo at 3 o'clock on the 10TH
The committee Of arrangements met the Pre-
sIDENT at the landing, and the largest process
sion ever formed in that city-composed of the
fire department, several civic societies, with
their banners, ensigns and decorations, accom-
panied by several fine bands of music-who
proceeded to the park, where large staging
had been erected for the accommodation of
the distinguished guests of the city. The
PRESIDENT was everywhere hailed with
tokens of respect and esteem from the
crowds which thronged the streets and
occupied the windows along the line Of
the procession. On arriving at the stand a
brief and appropriate speech Of welcome was
delivered by the Mayor and received with great
enthusiasm. The PRESIDENT, on rising to re-
ply, was received with nine hearty cheers. He
responded eloquently, and with evident strong
emotion. He was followed by Mr.. GRAHAM,
Mr.. HALL, Governor Hunt, and Senator
DOUGLAS; when the PRESIDENT and the invi-
ted guests were escorted to the Mansion House,
where the report leaves them.
The telegraphic correspondent Of the Ez-
press, under date of the 18th, states that the
PRESIDENT had gone to Aurora, and would re-
turn with his Cabinet to Washington on Tues
day.

..The series of measures to which have alluded
are regarded by me as a settlement, in principle
and substances final ssttlement-of the danger
Gus and exciting subjects which they embraced"
-
f.sBy that adjustment we have been rescued from
the wide and boundless agitation thatsurrounded
US. and have firm, distinct, and legal ground
to rest upon. And the occasion, trust, will JUS
tify me IN ExHoRrISo MI coUSrRYMEN TO RALLY

stegrity ofthe Union"
IPREsIDENr FILLMoRE's MESSAGE.
1.-The Presidents message, at the opening ofthe
present session of Congress, expresses fully and
plainly his own and the unanimous opinion OF all
those associated with him in the Executive admin
= stration of the Government, in regard to what
:. are called the Adjustment or Compromise mea-
.sures of last session. That opinion is, that those
measures should be regarded in principle as
final settlement of the dangerous and exciting
subjects which they embrace; that though they
were not free from imperfcctions, yet, in their
mutual dependence and connection, they formed
a system of compromise the most conciliatory
and best for the entire country that could be OBJ
tanned from conflicting sectional interest and
opinions, and that therefore they should be ad-
s.hered to, until time and experience should de-
monstrate the necessity of further legislation to
guard against evasion or abuse. That opinion, &C
Ia as know, remains entirely unchanged, and
will be acted upon steadily and decisively. The
peace of the country requires this; the security Of
sthe Constitution requires this; and every consde-
ration Of the public good demands this. If the
Administration cannot stand upon the principles
ofthe message it does not expect to stand at all'

We learn from the Richmond Republican
that the convention has at length come within
sight of land on the basis question. 1t has
adopted in committee of the whole the compro-
mise of the committee by which the House, or
ganized on the suffrage basis, will have a
western majority of fourteen; the Senate an
eastern majority of ten, (giying the west on
joint ballot majority of four,) and by which
provision is made that, in the year 1865,
in case the General Assembly shall not be
able to agree as to the principle of rep
resentation on which reapportionment shall
be made, the question shall be left to the quail
fed voters of the State to decide. "Wedded
to no section," says the Republican, ode
string the common prosperity and honor of
9 both Eastern and Western Virginia, we can
not but regard this compromise to be as fair
: and equitable settlement as either side could
: reasonably expect. And it must commend it.

8 which it makes for the final extinguishment
