SOUTH CAROLINA IN THE REVOLUTION.

GnEENsDoKo, (AIa.) July 8, 1856.
Mcssrs. Editors The base ISLANDERS re-
Gently uttered by Charles Sumner on the
fair fame of South Carolina, certainly need
no refutation Mt the South. But that the
inexcusablc ignorance and prejudice whicl,
prompted their utterance may be properly
appreciated, I send you for publication an
extract from Washington and his Gener-
ais" hy Rev. J. r. Hcad1y. lie commen-
ces his biographical sketch of Maj. Gen.
Moultrie in the following words:
In that crisis Of our history, when not
only the liberty Of this country, but the
fate of freedom, the world over, hung quiv-
ering on our decision, South Carolina acted
noble part. The colonies were full Of
hesitation and fear at the gathering tempest.
which in its slow rising darkcned the whole
heavens; and when Massachusetts sent
forth her appeal thousands OF patriotic
hearts throbbed anxiously to hear the re-
sponso which should he returned. South
Carolina suffered least Of all from the sys-
tenn Of taxation insisted upon by the pa
rent country, yet she was among the first
to hail her New England sister; and plctlg-
ing her treasures and her hardy sons to the
struggle, swore on the common altar to
stand or fall by her side. Governed more
by principle than interest," and obeying that
generous sympathy whicl, prefers death with
the oppressed to honor with the oppressor,
she stepped into the glorious sisterhood,
who twincd their arms together in the no.
blest sacrifice ever witnessed among tile
nations of tho earth.
I" May her love to tile Union ever be as
pure and unselfisb, and her feet the last to
leave the common platform in which thev
were first to be placed at SUCH cost of
blood and treasure.
"Of the patriotic and c|livalrous men Of
our Revolution, South Carolina, considering
her population and extent, furnished nh
unusually large proportion. With Moultrie,
the two Pinckueys, sumpter, Laurcns, Rut-
ledge and Marion, and others, she presented
galaxy of noble men Of which even ma.
ton might be proud" Page 70, vol I'd.
Thus, you sec, there is q slight discre-
pancy between the testimony Of Charles
Sumner and the better informed and more
truthful Witnesses even from his own section,
who were not prompted by personal pique.

was higher honor to themselves to he
just in their judgment Of gentleman than
to be member OF Congress for life. In
taking my leave, I feel that it is proper
that | should say that believe some Of the
votes which have been cast against ME have
been extorted by an outside pressure ut
home. and tina ttl,eir votes do not express the
feelings or opinions of the members who
gave them.
TO such of these rs have given their
votes and made their speeches on the con-
stitutional principles involved, and without
indulging in personal vilifcation, owe nv
respect. But, sir, they have written me
down upon the history of the country as
worthy of expulsion, and in no unkindness
| must tell them that for al future time
my self-respcct requires that l shall pass
them rs strangers.
And now, M'. Speaker, announce to
you and to this House that am no longer
member of the Thirty.fourtl, Congress.

API'ENDIN:

The imrrndence of evil disposed persons,
who, by newspaper articles and in private
conversations, have done injustice both to
the Hon. Mr.. Burlingamc and myself ren-
ders it necessary that the subjoincd memo
randa should be appended to my speech:
Mr.. Burlingame in fair and manly way,
admitted his responsibility for any language
used in his speech, and disclamed any in
tention to reflect upon the personal cllarac-
ter of Mr.. Brooks, or to imputc to him in
any respect a want of courage but, dis
eliminating between the man and the act
to which he was called upon to alIude, he
had characterized the latter only in sucl,
manner as his representative duty required
him 10 do.
The above is q statement made by Mr.
Burlingame in reference to the passage in
his late speech which referred to Mr.. Brooks,
1t is in the handwriting of Mr.. Speaker
Banks, and WAS acknowledged by Mr.. Bur-
lingame in our presence, and was satisf,c.
tory to us as friends of Mr. Brooks.

From the Union and American. June ID.

How TIE DKLKGATEs LooK.-The Cincin-
natl Commercial, Know Nothing paper, in
closing its report of the first days proceedings
of the convention, thus speaks of the appear
ance of the members:
"The representatives of the Democracy in
convention assembled, are, as a whole, good
looking men. The number Of big rosy men
is remarkable. The general appearance of
the body of the delegates is decidedly su
perior to that of the House of Representa-
tives. Among the other things, it is evident
that the South has sent up its strong men to
represent it on this occasion, as usual"
The Cincinnati Commercial is not, and
never was, Know Nothing paper" 1t
is as bitter and vindictive in its opposition
to American principles, and as cordial in
its affection for foreigners, as the Union
and American. 1t is an able Black Repub-
hcan coadjutor of our neighbor in the war
upon the American Party.

The Inspectors Sustained.

The Circuit Court has decided the case
of DAVID c. LOVE rs. RICHARD WHITE in
favor Of the plaintiff. The learned Judge,
BAXTER, decides that the two Inspectors,
Paul and Hail. had the power to choose a
keeper, and that their appointee, Love, is
the legally authorized keeper of the Peni-
Tertiary The Union and Amer5caa under
stands that the case will be carried up to
the Supreme Court. In that event, there
will be a heavy bill of costs to pay; and
we would like to know whether Gov. John
son expects to foot it out of his private
purse, the Penitentiary fund, as in for
mer case, or the exchequer of Mr.. White?

nag The disappointed demo, racv aft

B6r The disappointed democracy, after
loud blowing and harping upon the fact that
distinguished speakers from abroad :"
would be present, succeeded in getting mp
little ratification meeting at the Market
House on Thursday night. We won't say
how large crowd was collected: but we
will say it was much smaller than that
which heard Mr.. Clinton Saturday night
ANDREW EWING, Esq, Mr.. Mail Agent
MARTIN, the Rev Mr. CowART, of Georgia,
i. L. GARDENHIRE, Esq, and Others, made
speeches. Neither of them displayed any
remarkable evidence of enthusiasm, and
awakened none in the bosom of their audi
tors. The most remarkable thing that
occurred was pledge of ten thousand ma
jOrity in Tennessee for Mr.. Buchanan made
by Mr.. Gardenhire. 1t was just as easy
for him to pledge a hundred thousand, and
our only surprise is that he did not do it.
The gentleman is evidently devout be-
lever in the gullibility of the human race.
The Georgia Preacher tried to get little
wind into his sails by introducing brace of
JoHNsoNs-Herschel, of Georgia, and our

found it, If be expected an audience at
the capitol of Tennessee to shout over Them
he was vastly out of the proper reckoning.
We trust our neighbor of the Union and

Trial of RoaPIng Machines.

On Wednesday last a considerable number
Of farmers from various parts of this State
and Kentucky, together with many Of the cit
liens Of this county and city, assembled at
Col. T. b. Johnson's, to witness the trial OF
reGping machines.
There were six different machines On the
ground, viz: Mannys, Mann's, Atkins Self
Raker, the New York Reaper and Mower,
and New York SelfRaker, and Detz and
Dunhsm's Cam Power RespiDg and Moving
Machine.
The latter cut the first round, and elected
much praise, both from the manner in which
it done its work, as well as for its simplicity,
strength and lightness. 1t has no cog wheels
and is less complex in its machinery than any
machine of the kind we have yet seen. The
committee gave it the preference as a mower
over all others. Information in regard to this
machine can be obtained of Danl j. Trump,
Somerville, \. J.
Atkins Self Raking Reaper and Mower then
went round, and was the subject of no little
curiosity and admiration. 1t requires 20 one
with it but the driver, the grain being taken
off 10 bundles, by an ingenously contriVed
rake, with the precision Of Olock-work Though
there is more machinery in it than in some of
the rest, it is easily understood, aud soon re-
paired should it get out of order j. S. Wright,
Chicago, HIS, is the proprietor.
The well known Reaper and Mower Of Man
Il a., &
ham. then went round the field, giving great
satisfaction. The judges decided il to be the
"best Reaper and Mower combined" Of the
number.
Manns Reaper and Mower came next, and
mace, among the persons present, many par
tial friends from the manner it worked. The
method Of delivering the grain is peculiar,
beirg by means Of wide revolving belt, which
takes the grain as it falls and deposits il on
platform, from which ii is removed 10 proper
sized bundles by a small rake in the hands of
boy, who is seated at one end Armstrong
& Co., in this city, are the agents for this ma
chine.
The New York Reapers and Mowers were
tried-one of them self-raker, aud the other
requiring hand to remove the grain from the
platform. Both worked exc,llently, and
several gentlemen expressed a preference for
one or the other, over the rest.
Each Of the six machines possesses some
peculiar advantages of its own, and diversity
Of opinion among farmers, as 20 the relative
merits Of them is nothing more than could be
expected. one thing is certain, ard that is,
among so many kinds, no man could hardly
fail Of being suited in machine. The great
benefit and pecuniary advantage which far
msr secures 10 the use OF such an implement
must be apparent to al, and that such is the
case, is evident from the demands for machines
which come in from all parts Of the State. II
is truly gratifying 10 see SO much interest mani.
tested BY the Agriculturists Of Tepnessee, 10 the
g reat Improvements Of the age, calculated TO
advance their Interests.
