r.I,uOIJN wHIsKEY.

For the public good, We are tempted to copy
letter We received, the other day, from Dalu-
more house, on the interesting subject of Vh'*hrH
Calhoun Whiskey. How it come to be directed
to our own proper person, we arc at loss 10 ui-
vine. The concern is evidently trying to ''poxe
fnnn at us. But we are not inclined to "take,'
lust now; and we imagine no one else in these re-
gions will be particularly solcitous in the promi-
ses, under existing auspises. At any rate, VIC
have too much regard for the South Carolina ele-
ments that's in us to encourage Calhoun Mhskey.
What sad misnomer!
Will some friend, in our absence, attend to the
reouest ut the bottom? AS our merchants and
planters are to q considerable number members
of some of the organizations, would it not be wc'
inst for the fun of it, to send on the several Dvis
iou-rolls? Think Of it. Here's the sample.
BALTIMORE, Nov. 1856.
Dear Strive beg to direct your attention to
the calhoun Wiskey 1t is the best, purest and
oldest ever offered to the community and of rich
golden color. Our wholesale trade price is 81
per case of II bottles, and we don't usually sell
less than cases. but under the circumstances,
we have no objection to let yoa have what you re-
qui,e as sample at same price.
We would be much obliged if you would give us
list of the merchants and planters in your neigh
borhood, and we at all times shall be happy TO
reciprocate.

one of the practical, successful Of the State
read very strong, common-sense, and yet care
fully elaborated argument. against the bill, and
against the policy of any further aid by the State
to Railroad monopolies 1t is Impossible in brief
space to give you any idea of this very forcibe ar
gument, and shall not attempt it. presume it
will be published in full, anil you will do good
service bygiyrg your readc rs tie benefit Of first
page Insertion. A few such right-arm strokes
will effectively demolished this "Agubian' hum
bug-as visionary an "cn.ertlinment' as could
possibly be imagined. The debate will be contin-
ucd.
Some of your readers will remember that in the
year 1855, an net was passed. ''nore elfectualy
to prevent free negroes AMI other persons OF color
from entering into this State which required
such persons, when entering voluntarily or driven
into any port by stress of weather or other una
voidablc circumstances, to be imprisoned until
provision coullbc made for their re. shipment
This enactment gave serious offence to the North
ern States and to England and France; and you
remember that Massachusetts sent out one Sam
uel Hoar to protest against it, and the English
government instituted suit against the State on
account of damage sustained by her subject under
the provisions of the Statute. In every case,
however tie sovereignty Of our little State was
trumphantly maintained. Now, when the OUT
side pressure has ceased, the policy and the hu-
manity Of the provision has been brought in nues-
ton, and amendments have been proposed at sey-
eral successive sessions to expunge the more harsh
and repu.s;ve features. The debate in the bill to-
day was quite animated and ably conducted on
both sides /; and so equally fought that the impair
tial and disnterestcd bearer found it difficult to
make up mind about it. The amendment re-
quircs such person, so driven into port to remain
on ship; and while it would relieve the statute Of
its features Of hardship, really seems to answer
its every reasonable purpose. AS far as possible
think the opinion Of the world on thH subject OF
slavery should be conciliated and in this as we'll
as every other view, it seems to be expedient to
modify the law of our State in this regard.
The election for Governor, tomorrow, will be
attended by unusual excitement. Messrs. Alston,
Johnson, and Allen are the candidates, and will
run, l suspect, in the order named; but there
will certainly be no choice on the first ballot.
Yours, MELTON.

Business OF the Present congr..s..

The second regular session Of the thirty: fourth
Congress opened yesterday. According to the
joint rules the unfinished business of the two.
Houses will be resumed ut the pointat WHICH 1t
was left nt the close Of the proceeding regular ses-
sion; aid us many new matters will probsbly be
introduced, there will be abundant occupation, To-
which, as the excitement of politics has abated ana
the session must terminate in three months, the
members will doubtless address themselves With
proper assiduty. The National Iatel elliqeaeer thus
sums up the business of tho present session: :.
Foremost among the pron,incnt matters are the
projects for tic construction of railroad and tel
egraph line to the Pacific. In What form the a.d
OF the General Government is to be extended viii
necessarily lead to much discussion. In the Sen
ate, ut the last session, Mr.. Weller made very
able exposition of the views and argument relied
upon to sustain the propositions and he pressed
with great enrnestness the scheme for az wagon
road across the plains, and through the mountains
to the Pacific. Several plans are also before COM
mittees of the House.
Tho bill which, passed the House, under Mr..
Broom's patronage, TO provide or9the settlement
of the half pay promised to revolutionary officers
by the Continental Congress, is the order Of she
day for the third Monday in December in the Sem
ate, and is in charge of Mr. Evans, of South Car
olna, who has given the subject the benefit of his
scrutiuizing research and industry, and will be
prepared to present its merits with proper force.
In reply to cul for information in reference TO
the amount necessary to redeem the public faith
on this head, we learn that the Secretary of the
Interior estimates the sum Of Eve and q half mil
lions Of dollars as sufficient, if all the outstanding
claims should be presented within the ten Searsto
which the bill is limited.
In the Senate as well as the House. there are
several river and harbor bills to be considered of
n character similar to those which were passed ut
the last session over the Presidential veto That
the most important Of them will become laws,
con scarcely be doubted. $780,
In the House, there arc various propositions for
donations Of land TO aid in the construction Of
railroads; and it is not to be supposed that the
Representatives of the old States will relinquish
their hopes of more equitable distribution of
the public domain than has yet been made.
The bill from the Senate on the subjectof naval
reform, will come up for consideration In tho
House, and Naval Committee of the latter
body will pro. oly make report at an early day.
A bill to promote the efficiency of the army isalso
prominent, and the Committee on Military Aaairs
will not agree that their past labors shall be lost
amidst the crowd Of pressing busness'in process
of maturity.
Besides the usual annual appropriation bids,
which have precedence OF all other topics, there
ore numerous bills for the allowance-of private
claims Of long standing, and Of unquestioned mer-
il. ... -. -r.-ss ~ -

Governor and Lieut.. Governor.

The General Assembly yesterday, on the first
joint ballot, elected the Hon. R. F. ". Aston
Governor and Hon. Gabriel Cannon Lieut.. Cover
nor of the State of South Carolina.
Col. Allston has for number Of years occupied
the distinguished position of President of the Sen
ate with great dignity and general satisfaction to
his numerous friends. AS private citizen he has
done much towards giving tone and character to
every effort to advance Science, Literature and
Agriculture.
A polished gentleman and scholar, Col. Allston
has always been found ready and anxious to en-
courage Literature and relieve the necessities Of
those who could be found worthy objects for assis-
tance. His endowment of Scholarship in the
South Carolina College is an illustration of his be-
nevolence and disposition to aid the worthy poor
who may thirst after knowledge. His election
will be entirely acceptable to the people Of South
Carolina a-Corolina Times.

KINGS MOUNTAIN r. II. COMPANY.

From carefully prepared statement OF the
workings of the above Rail Road for the last three
months, exhibited to us--being the period which
has expired since the last annual meeting, we
find that the income of the Road has exceeded
that of the corresponding months of the proceed
ing year. 1t may not be amiss 20 say that the
Kings Mountain Celebration of October 1920 may
be set off against the Methodist Conference OF
November of this year. The friends of the Road

blc showing can he made notwithstanding the
short crop of some bulky productions, and the ao-
sence from low prices of all inducement to forward
the same to distant market.
