Death of Hon J. R. Poinsett,

We regret to announce the death Of this
gentleman, on Friday last, at the residence oI
Dr.. w. Anderson, Stateburg, Sumter District
Mr.. Poinsett's health has been very feeble for
some time past, and he had been suffering from
a pulmonary complaint for several years.
Mr.. Poinselt is known to the whole nation,
and at different periods occupied various respon,
sible positions under the Government. If we
mistake not. he represented Charleston district
in 1923, and was prominent in the debate which
took place on the Intervention of our govern.
ment in favor of Greece. He subsequently re-
ceived an appointment as Minister to Mexico,
and acquired much popularity from bis intrepid
ity in unfurlng the American flag from bal
cony, when his residence was beset by turi-
Gus mob, who were bent on its destruction, be.
cause persons obnoxious to them had found
sanctuary there. His efforts were. successful,
and the mob dispersed. During the admins
tralion of General Jackson he was appointed
Secretary Of War, which he continued to hold
during Mr.. Van Buren's term of Office, with
which he retired to private life.
Mr.. Poinsett was born in ITO, and was con-
sequently in the 73d year of mis- age.

shall it exist or not!-their decision will close the
matter, and whether it be for or against it, it will
have to be right. We don't like the Report OF
the Minority of the Committee appointed by the
Legislature TO examine into the affairs of the
Branch at Camden. The proposition to discon-
tinue this Branch, and establish an agency in its
stead, is one of the latest ideas on record. The
most prominent reason given by the minority is
on the score of economy-saving the State sat
least FIVE thousand dollars year," and at the
same time sit will not narrow the accommodations
of this section of the country seriously" We are
not prepared to admit these propositions, and
contend that, being entitled to the Branch, (and
not an agencyO we hope and expect to retain it.
We suppose that Camden is so far behind the
age, in the wisdom ofcertain sagacious legislators,
as to need their particular supervision and atten
tion. When we need their services, we shalltake
pleasure in asking their advice; until such how
ever, is the case, we beg of the minority of the
committee of examination, TO be allowed the ex-
quisite privilege ofpursung the even tenor of our
way, promising mutually that each shall mind his
own business, and not get too smart all at once.

Powers' Statues,

We have had the pleasure recently of viewing
these splendid specimens of art. They were ex-
hbted in Columbia, and have attracted much ad-
mration. The Greek Slave belongs to Mr.. Pow
ers, and is seen with the statue of Eve which lat
ter was executed for Col. John S. Preston, but
through his liberality, has been allowed to be en-
hbited for the benefit of Mr.. Powers. We pro-
fess not 10 be a connoisseur in statuary art, but
conclude after this that Powers has nothing more
to do, to acquire an Immortality of worldly fame,
cnviable indeed. We remarked when we saw
the Hon. VIM. Z. Preston viewing the Sc statues,
here is the preck as well as exhibition of genius.

Rev. Whitefoord Smith. y. %.

We had the pleasure on Sunday 18th InSt'' 10
hear Sermon from this eminent and popular
divine. His sermon was intended as missIona-
ry appeal, preached with great power from these
words: go ye into all the world and preach my
gospel to every creature" We do not recollect
ever to have heard better sermon; perhaps
however, if we were to hear him again, we might
arrive at the same conclusion in regard to the last
effort. Dr. Smith combines to an eminent degree,
the characteristics pulpit oratory. His voice is
music itself His reasoning is clear and convlnc-
ing. The great power of his preaching lies in his
persuasive eloquence, aud splendid imagination /;
his extraordinary fuency-never at loss tor
moment, to express precisely what he MEANS
Whiteioord Smith answers our idea of finished
speaker, and perfect orator. Perhaps we are ex-
trayagant-be it so, we acknowledge there are
few men, whose claims to clerical distinction in
the way of preaching, are SUPERIOR if equal to his.
We would gladly see him honored, but would at
the same time, regret to lose his valuable services
in the itenerancy-even though he were elevated
to the highest position in the South Carolina COL
lege--his alma-mater, upon which few graduates
have reflected equal honor. Such being our no
tons, we have volunteered to give him passing

Lewisville Female Seminary.

We take pleasure in calling the attention Of the
public to the advertisement of this institution in
to-day's paper Mrs. A. s. Wylie is we'll and IA
vorably known as lady Of superior ability, and
quite competent for the duties she has assumed
as the principal of this institution. She will be
sustained by assistants Of experience and ample
qualifications for the proper instruction Of pupils
committed to their care. .
There are superior advantages afforded to lu-
pills here; for in addition to their mental wants
being supplied in cases of sickness the best medi-
cal aid and attention is promised, free of charge,
which is certainly very impor antconsideration.
In many boarding schools, pupils when taken
sick, are allowed the privilege Of getting well the
best way they can. A personal acquaintance
with the Principal, enables us confidently to re-
commend the School to the patronage ofthe pub
lie. The location is represented as a very desi-
rable and pleasant one, in the midst moral, re-
ligious and intelligent community, and in heal
thy region of country.

several Engravings, and filled with its usual va
riety of reading matter. Mr. Godey's motto for
some time has been "morc elevated" and he cer-
tainly has, if we are competent to Judge, practi-
cally illustrated that motto, "EXcclsiof."
