THE CELEBRATION OE LAST SATURDAY.
MEssRs EDITORS viii you allow me q short
space in your columns, to say word or two in re-
gard to one of the most joyous and exciting occa-
sions have ever Witnessed ! allude to the Cee-
braton of the Anniversary of our Independence
which came off at this place on Saturday last
The day was as propitious as could be desired
the sun being sufficiently obscured by clouds tc
mollify the intense heat considerably. At an early
hour of the morning, the slumbers Of our citizen:
were broken in upon by the roar of Cannon, tho
BUTLER ARrILLEny'' having turned out, in part
to introduce the day with national salute. -.
At S o'clock, A. NJ, q most excellent Brass Band
from the City of Augusta, under the command o
Mr.. JonN BonLER, took its position in the Cour
House Portco, which fronts the Public Square, ant
there enlivened all listeners with some of the very
finest strains of Martial Music it has ever been ou
good fortune to hear in Edge6cd Iii justice tc
say here, that the Members of this Band, each ant
every one, acquitted themselves in the most hand
some style and conducted themselves throughou
the day in the most becoming manner. they com
manded the respect Of all--and We have aread!
heard that they may look for second engagement
amongst us within the next two weeks.
At half past 10 o'clock, A. NJ, n procession wa
formed under the direction of Lieut.. JOSEPH ADSEr
who acted as Marshal of the day. We have nevc
seen, in Edgcfeld, one so full! or so fine looking
Upon reaching the Baptist Church, the process
sion was halted and entered in the usual manner.
The exercises in the Church were opened by al
appropriate and impressive prayer from the Rev
MIR. GRAHAM, of the Episcopal Denomination.
IIR. SrANN, Esq, then read the Declaration o
independence in a clear and forcble manner
After which Mr.. JOHN e. BACON delivered al
Oration, which was universally pronounced to be
beautiful and eloquent production.
The company was then dismissed, and rcpnire'
to the Male Academy grove, where the most abun
dant and varied feast was prepared. All partool
with keen appetites, and all satisfied in toto.
Some time after dinner, the young people got to
gcther in the Male Academy, which lwas the iLon
Room, of the occasion, and commenced q gay AM
l animatmg dance which they kept up with unintcr
rupted zcst, until late hour Of the afternoon. In

CURE FOR SNAKE,DlrEs.-We find the follow.
ing communication in the Southern Culirator,
and give it our readers, as it may possibly be
of service ...:.-....a.
Z" Messrs Editors: As hold it to be the duty
of any one possessing knowledge Of anything
which may be of utility to n feIow-being, to
impart the same, / offer through the columns of
your. valuable paper, a remedy for a snake bite,
which an eminent physician, DR.. w. H. Whita-
ker, informs me, is -fiiling-ono which
may be relied on as certainly successful. 1t is
the tincture Of lobclia, either herb or seeds. As
soon rs possible after tho wound is inflicted,
banduge rs tightly as possible the limb above
the wound to prevent the circulation of blood
below; then commence giving the tinclure in
doses of q tablespoon or wine.glass full, every
few minutes, until copious vomitings ensue, at
which time the bandagc may be loosed and The
vomiting kept up by repeating the dose Of CIV
ing warm water. When the patient begins to
recover, the stomach should be kept slightly
nauseatcd for one or two days by the lobelia,
after which tonics should bc given. 1t would
probably be well TO apply strong spirits of harts-
horn, or what is termed by druggists treble aqua
ammonia, to the wound. TRUTH.

KOSSUTH'S MOVEMENTS.

THE late conduct of KossuTH, and more particu-
lary the influence eIered by him at meeting of the
Germans in New York, has produced an unusual de-
gree of sensation among all parties. Indeed is now
evident that, this audacous man is endeavoring to
interfere, rs much possible in the affairs Of our
country Having failed to accomplish his great end
Of causing, or rather compelling, our government to
adopt his visionary schemes, he is determined to inter-
vene in our most important affairs, and meddle with
our most sacred and inviolable rights.
1t cannot be doubted but that among other things,
Governor KossGTH is bending all his energies TO-.
wards uniting the Germans, throughout the United
States, upon platform, rather compelling them
to vote for that Presidential candidate most favorable
to intervention.
This is we think not only q very impertinent, but
also highly important step-indeed that may, if
successful determine the election "The German votes
in misplace" says the New York Herald, /" number
some twenty thousand, and in Pennsylvania and
other States they number perhaps three hundred thou
sand. If they should all vote in one way, or even
very large number Of them vote differently from their
party, they will upset the balance Of power between
the two parties confound all calculations, and
the election of the weaker man, and the triumph Of
the weaker party" -
Now we do not pretend to say which Of the two
parties, 1--WE mean,the Democrats or Whig) are most
in favor of Intervention, for we have always under
stood that neither would have anything to do with it,
in fact, deemed it entirely foreign question and
highly iupolitic. Therefore if the Germans should
determine to cast united vote for an Intervention
candidate they must find that candidate in different
partyhe must belong either to the anti-savery, free
soil any other than the Wing or Democratic 1t is
certain however, that let their candidate be who he
may, provided he is not Wing or Democrat) their
vote will very materially weaken the Democratic
party for the Germans, it Is generally conceded be-
long 10 that party. And although they may not, in
deed cannot, elect their candidate, nevertheless they
may, by Deserving the Democratic side. bring about
the election Of the; Wing nominee. y ~
We think il is high time for Gov KossuTn 10 nban.
don his attempts, as they nndotbedly result from
spirit Of revenge. Afer having pertaken Of our hos,
pay, and shared our Kindness, it M becomes him TO
interfere with our privileges: His lats condeet me-
deed forcibfy reminds US ofthe old fable Of the coun
tryman and the snake. Who can say what length

DEATH OF MR. CLAY.


,,ha sotb of June last, the death Of another OF
our creates. statesmen was announced, ooth IN 'ne
Senate and in the House. 2" Mr. CLAY says the
Charleston Mercury, last evening, was slightly wan
,dering in his mind and spoke incoherentiy OF his
iwifs and children. This morning he appeared more
rational, but did not speak until about half an hour
before his DEATH He then asked for drink which his
son gore through silver tube. MIR. CLAY then said
TO him, "don't leave me-" He then molioned to
have his pcckcloh loosed, and after remaining quiet
for a few minutes, said, :" / aIn going," and died
calmly in about ten minutes" q:
The serene ycomposurey and sdignifeds .caimness
which has attended the dying moments OF our great
est spirits, is certainly most remarkable MIR. GAL
uouH died, it may be said, without struggle, and
Mr.. CLAr exhibited no sign Of pain or regret at
leaving the scene of his nobest e1erons. The great
American Triumuiri are one by one fast descending
10 their crayes-indeed but one Of the immortal trio
of CALHOUN, CLAY and WEBSTER is now living
may the surviving member meet his last end with the
same rmness and readiness of his departed brothers,
Mr.. CLAYs personal friends, We understand, have
taken his remains to lexington for the friendly pnr.
pose, we presume of burying them beneath the soil
he loved so WELL The great Carolinian and his
noble compeer the great Kentuckian, are gone for
ever, but they are still and ever will be,
"The dead, but sceptred sovereigns who rule our
spirits from their urns."
Upon their sacred tombs golden flowers and fruits
are still springing, "ruits wherein lie Nepenthe,
flowers that are flowers of Amaranth" May their
last sleep be long and gentle. Upon the green turf
that covers their mortal remains let the refreshing
dews of sorrowing affection dscend. As they have
immortalized themselves by their genius and virtue
let them be honored by all that is endearing in social
or domestic charities, and blessed with public
ton and unperishable renown.

P. s wHITE-TEMpERANcE,

| Z. .. g..
Whoever has carefully observed the course
of the above named gentleman. on tho above
named subject, cannot but be struck with the
odum, which it seems to be his endeavor, on
every occasion, to heap upon all who have not
felt themselves called upon to occupy the posi-.
tion which he has thought proper to assume on
the subject.
The Christian ministry, and Christians gen
eraly who, in the exercise of that right of opin-
ion to which every man is entitled, have declined
to take their places under the banner of the so.
called temperance reform, are made the subject
Of the grossest Misrepresentation, and held up
rs the enemies, virtually, of cause which they
profess to love, and on principles as high above
those which they are called upon to adopt, rs
| heaven is above earth.
| At Darlington c. H., few weeks ago, Mr..
Wi is found taking the bold and startling posi-
| tion, that during his sojourn in the State of
South Carolina, SO far, he had heard but single
Minister of the Gospel advocate the cause of
temperance from the sacred desk.
Now what, we ask, does Mr.. w. mean, when
he says that but single minister in the Suite
had advocated, in his hearing, the cause of tenn
perance from the pulpit? Docs he mean that
the rest have not held up the order of the "Sons
of Temperance" as m order to which all ought
to belong who would be temperate !? If he
means to say this, he is certainly correct, so far
as this simple fact is concerned. But when he
draws the conclusion from this, that they are
living in the neglect of the high duty to which
God has called them, of incucating the princi.
pies of temperance among those to whom it
may be their privilege to minister, he beth falls
into the grossest fallacy, and is guilty of the
most shameful violation of truth. If the order
of the Sons of Temperance" embodics alone
the principles of temperance, to the exclusion of
every other system, tho conclusion to which Mr..
W. is so bold in coming, is not ,fallacious, but
correct. Bat if, on. the contrary, the. Christian
religion, which, it is to be hoped, the ministry at
largo arc honestly endeavoriHg to advance, con-
stitutes the real and only genuine embodiment
of the great principles of temperance, the3re-
verse is true. The conclusion adverted TO is
not correct but falacious; and if so, howfoul
and shameful tho injustice of which Mr.. w. is
guilty.
/ And surely it has come to n serious pass, that
a body of;pure and holy mon should publicly
be charged with the neglect of: a dutyihy6Ising
interests us vast rs eternity itself, and for the
performance of (which they. hold themselves re-
responsible to God-and by whom? Why for.
sooth by Mr.. Philip s. White, held responsible

tion Of FIVE thousand dollars annually paid to-
