as is estimated, Sl,5Oo,ooO. On the four
corners of the pedestal are placed boxes into
which those who feel inclined slip their con-
tributions. With an eye to the frailty of poor
human nature, and in opposition to the COM
mand which prohibits the right hand from
letting its mate know what it giveth, these
boxes have been made of thick glass so
tkat there is every inducement, when you
are surrounded by crowd, to put in a quar-
ter or even bill instead of the insignificant
dime or ftp which might otherwise be the
limit of your charity. As we passed by the
boxes yesterday, we observed motley col
lection of all manner of coins, among which
coppers were not the least numerous. There
were a few bills, and pockets full of silver,
which must have made the mouths of retail
tradesmen water, when they remembered
how hard it is in these days of scanty specie
to get change for dollar. The cortribu-
tions thus far have amounted to $479.67, and
average about S45 day. A register is pro-

DR.. VIM Wylie few weeks ago, and al
though little notice has already appeared
in our paper relative to the Female Semina-
ry a. .Lewisville, we desire, from what VIC
heard from the Doctor, to give more ex-

DR.. Wylie informed us, that the Semina-
ry is in most flourishing condition; the
pupils are always pleased "a rare thing) and
the parents, "a still rarer circumstance in-
yariably evince the greatest satisfaction at
the proficiency acquired by their daugh.

We recollect of having passed by the
place, and our recollection of the locality, is
that it is one of the most desirable in the
upper country for Female Seminary.
We have not the pleasure of personal
acquaintance with Mrs Wylie the Principal
but from what VIC learn, we are sure she is
in every respect qualified for the post she
occupies.

Horrible Atrocity.

THERE was a writ OF habeas corpus made
returnable before Chancellor Dargan, whilst
holding Court at Greenville which disclosed
one Of the most atrocious crimes We have
ever heard Of in civilized and Christian
country. We are glad, for the honor of our
district, that II did not occur in Greenville.
IL waa not our purpose, at first, 10 allude to
this horrible crime, but inasmuch as the
perpetrators Of IL have not been discovered,
we think it our duty to say that the district
of Spartanburg, and especially the good peo-
pie Of the neighborhood where IL was com
mitted, owe II to themselves and their coun-
try, az well as 10 the cause Of Justice and
humanity, to hunt up and ferret out the bru-
tai monsters. Should they escape undetec-
ted IL will be reflection on the neighbor.

on two individuals in the neighborhood, who
were arrested, and who proved an abb be-

The world these days is all excitement.
The people love excitement Tho mail ar
rives-we open the newspapers, and every
paragraph is Of an exciting character The
fact is, when we sit down TO write our "lea-
der" for the next paper, we feel kind of
regret, that we have no murder, fire, or some
kindred calamity to record. We are going
to make an editorial out of n little thing
sometimes, cloud no bigger than man s
hand, increases by degrees, until finally the
whole earth is deluged.
Before we left home we noticed an article
in the Winnsboro Register, not only taking
us to task for writing editorials on Sunday
night, Gf we recollect aright,) bat also, say
ing something about the "big head" To
the charge Of writing editorials on Sunday,
we do not see any harm in that yet in jus.
tice to oursclf friend 3ritton, we must inform
you that it is not an invariable custom for
US to do so. 1t is n terrible disease that
"big head" Our head was heavy on that
night, but it was not the "big head" The
"big head" is peculiar disease, and if suE
fered to continue, will inevitably prove ia
tai. Ii produces in its action, n strange in
fiuence over man-changes quiet, inoffcn-
sve man, to disorderly citizen--nakes
true friend, n seeming foe-takes away, or
draws out, all tile ennobling characteristics
of its victim, and makes him one, though
partaking of the form of man, a rery demon !
Yet, and strange it is too, almost invariably
the case the poor victims of this sad disease
are the very best Of fellows. Yes, true it is
so. Not that one cannot be good fellow
without being afflicted with the "big head"
Oh no. But in very many cases, the afflic-
ted ones are men Of the most noble, gene
rous, whole souled dispositions. Strange,
yes strange, n peculiar, unaceountabe in-
iatuaiion, will induce men 10 encourage tiie
disease,-and then again, there are absolute
ly some who try to have q fondness for the
means used to bring on the "big head" and,
cannot. We love to illustrate as we 90
along-and that by facts.
This very month, eight years ago, hand
some young man, with raven curls hanging
on his shoulders, leaned on our arm as we
walked up Broadway New York. We were
then quite young. His step was feeble, and
the reason WIS found In his countenance.-
Disease was about to fasten his claws upon
his vitals. Life was quiyering, and held
upon the poise, would be governed by the
conduct and actions Of the posseesor. This
same "big head" disease had time and again
been upon him--he could be cured-0he
"big head" disease is iscureable,) but he would
not be cured. But few short months, and
St Mary's Church Yard in Charleston re-
ccived his remains. This was eight years
ago. He left father and two brothers---
they were all alike subject to this "bg head"
disease--the fall of the first, surely taught
an admonitory lessoni No, To-day they
all sleep in ST. Marys Church Yard. No
better men walked the streets Of Charleston
than did they. Bot we take the othsr side
Of the picture--athen tell as why il Is But
three weeks ago. one we we're intimately
scqrslntsd with In life, was laid in the grave.
The Lancaster ledger. [volume] (Lancaster, S.C.) 1852-1905, 1853-08-03

A good fellow he was, and never was trou-.
bled with the big head" disease. And
what suppose you he has told us. "Sir,
have engaged in every vice to complete the
category Of vices, needed this one, (mean-
ing the "big head,'O tried to encourage a
taste, wished for the effect, but for the life
of me | could not use the means," Ito bring
on the "big head.") This but one instance,
we could give dozen, but this is enough
and yet there be some poor devils, who
head-long rush into the whirl pool, quaf' the
draft until nature yields, and then almost
if not quite, die of tho 'big head" So it is,
and strange it is too.
But this is enough about the "big head
disease-if we say much more, every reader
of our paper will declare the editor is Ia
bouring under the disease-so we leave it,
