South CAROLINA ABRoAD.-It is somewhat
remarkable that of the three gentlemen who
have recently received the Democratic nomina-
tiens for the Gubernatorial officers in Georgia,
Alabama and Mississippi, allare natives of South
Carolina The Hon. w. Melville, nominee for
Governor in Mississippi, is native either of this
district or Kershaw; Judge Moore. the nominee
in Alabama, is native of Spartanburg and
Judge Brown the nominee in Georgia is a native
of Pickens District. The present Governor OF
Tennessee is South Carolinian, as is also the
present Governor of Florida. This is happy
illustration of the liberal and generous sentiment
which should ever rcharacterze the several States.
Let merit, irrespective of birth place, be the
measure in filling our Offices Of trust. 1t is
narrow, illiberal and anti.republcan spirit that
can find no merit worthy OF honor and conf.
dence beyond our own State limits. The same
spirit which the other States of the Union mani.
fest for South Carolina abroad will, we hope,
always meet with cordial reeiprocation.
Since writing the above we have received
copy of the Charleston Courier with similar
article, entitled "Carolnians in Honor"
WnsborO Register.

Serious Affair in Hamburg.

We learn that man named LucIUs POND was
shot by Mr.. Wu SPIRES ut Hamburg, on Sunday cvc-
ming last, under tho following circumstances:
PoyD had committed trespnss upon the premises
os SPIRES; whcreupon the latter said to him that II
tho offence was repeated "he would indict him. or
some romark of that kind. PoND went of, borrowed
gun loadcd it and proceeded to the house OF SPIRES
saying that he was determined to kill him. The Int
ter being arpriscd of what was going on BY frend'
prepared himself with gun also, and upon the ap-
proach of PoSn fired. ono shot taking effect in tho
temple and another directly in the forehead, penetra-
ting tho BRAIN PoND was not dead at Inst accounts,
but his case was considered hopeless. This statement
We have from our regular Hamburg correspondent.

From the Carolina Spartan.
THE SOUTH CAROLINA COLLEGE.

AS somuch interests now manifested through
out our State concerning the South Carolina
College, and as its Presidential Chair is now va
cant, it is incumbent OH the Trustees caretullyto
consider who is best qualified to fill it. Without
disparaging the merits Of those who have been
nominated Tor the office by their friends, we beg
to present to the Board the name of DIR. Laborde.
He is the man for the position. We do not AFRO.
gate for him the highest literary qualifications,
but we do insist that in administrative ability he
is unsurpassed. All will agree that in the Pres
ident of College splendid talents are not so re,
quisite as the governing faculty The President
of the South Carolina College must be high.
toned gentleman, he must possess honor and
spirit, he must possess persuasive eloquence-
in Short he must combine the suaCiter IN modo
with fontierinre. That DIR. Laborde does possess
the above requisites We say with great confidence
nor do we make this affirmation without suth-
cient reason torit Having graduated at the South
Carolina College, we knew DR.. Laborde well,
both in his capacity of Professor, and in that OF
President pro tenn, during temporary absences OF
the President of the College. In all emergen,
cies, the students eagerly sought his advice, fully
confident, rs they were, that he would advise
them correctly.
DIR. Laborde is native Of Carolina and a
graduate of the College. AT one time he was o
member of the Board Of Trustees; and for q
great number of years he has been Professor in
the College. Throughout our entire State per
haps there is no one so well acquainted with its
governmental history and this is another reason
Why he is so we'll qualified to fill the Presidential
Chair.
The elevation of Dr. Laborde to the Presi'
dency would give satisfaction to the State, the
affairs of the College would go on smoothly, he
would give life and vigor to the institution, and
we would hear no more talk Of converting it into
University, which we are fully persuaded the
Legislature will never think of doing.

ExTRAoRDINARy COLLECTION OF PgARLs-The
Paterson IN. J.) Guardian says that Messrs. John
and Jacob Quackenbush, of that city, who have
been mixed up in the pearl hunt from the first,
exhibited on Saturday twenty-one pearls-the
most perfect specimens of their recent cxertions
They were all regularly graduated in size for
necklace, and of beautiful tints and clearness.
Besides these they have recently found very
large pearl of the size of musket ball. per-
feet, and probably worth $1,000. The value of
the necklace pearls would be about $500
when arranged for sale. This family have found
over $4,000 worth, and have realized probably
that amount but the market value of the pearls
is very much more, as they realized only 5000
for one valued at $4,000 in New York,

CRors IN EAST TESSEssEE-T Editor of
the Chattanooga Advertiser has just returned
from a trip to Rhea Sulphur Springs, fifty miles
from that city, and thus speaks of the crops:
"Ncvcr in one season have We seen, so great
an abundance of wheat, corn and oats, as can be
seen passing up the valley on the north side of
the river. Wheat is splendid, and farmers We
find busy in harvesting it !; Oats fine Corn small
but of good color, stands well, and then the
oceans of it. Another year and We predict
that this section of country will not complain Of

a PRIZE FouND-The Delaware Reporter
says, that a large quantity of Spanish silver coin
has been found under and about the wreck Of
vessel on Phoenix Island, Nd, just below the
Southeastern part of Delaware. The wreck is
said to be that of Dutch galliot, which was
lost about fifty years since, having on board one
million dollars in specie The excitement among
the natives is said to be great Crops are left
untitled, stores and shops closed, and thousands
of people are on the shore raking for silver.
Some rake up as much as twenty dollars day,
others not more than two or three dollars The
silver is already in circulation in Sussex county.
