Another Brother Gone !

This has been an uncommonly fatal year
to the bachelor portion of the press gang,
and there arc moreover several ong months,
filled to the bfim with undeyeloped results,
which may increase the fatality Who
knows! however, as the comet is to swing
round "in few days." we feel somewhat
resigned to our "manifest destiny" But
we set out with the intention of escortino
friend from the freedom of singleness to
the confines of matrimony, and to pitch in,
by way of encouragement, few parting
words of consolation and compliment
But theeo would be lost in the mazcs of
happiness, if we may be allowed the uso of
the term, which now surround him, and
render blissful that honeymoon" which
may for him be lifelong. And now for
the announcement, done up editorialIy:
MAeRmp, in Yorkville, on Tuesday morning
last by the Rev. w W. Carothers, SAMUEL w.
MELTON, Esq, (co.editor of the Yorkville Enqui-
rcr,) and Miss Mary fl. GooRs, both of Yorkville
Adieu, friend until wo meet upon the
same platform, with the kindest wishes for
her who has Eorsakcn all for thee! And
may thy double happiness bo complete!

The Waxhaws.

The editor of the Lancaster LeaGcr has
been rusticating in the Waxhaws, in his
district, noted as tho birth place of Gen
JACKSON. lie says:
"Just at the edge Of rhe road, is averita.
bic Mineral Spring. The water seems to
run from solid body of rock an excaya-
tion of about two feet square, and Two OF
three feet deep, seems, at some time or 9TH
er, 20 have been cut in the rock, forming
an excellent place from which TO procure
water. We do not know The properties OF
this water, though Iron, we should say, was
an poriantingredient. 1t tispretty strong
Iy impregnated with something, but the
taste is not unpleasant. Friend suggested
however, that it might be improved b. ad
mixture with q more potent liquid. We
tied it, by way of experiment, and agreed
that he had hit upon n capital cxpedient
Names arc cut upon the rocks about this
Spring, with dates some years anterior to
the Revolution. We fancied that Old IIick-
ory had, in all probability, enjoyed many
a quaff of this mineral water.
"A short distance further is Waxhaw
creek. and here we suppose commences qft
WaXhaw section, rendered famous, for al
time, from being the birth place Of Cen
Jackson. The soil here is red and compact
very strong, and we would Judge we'll adap
ted to the production of corn. Although
rather hilly, yet from the nature of the soil
it does not wash much, and with proper
care and attention, may be made to last fol
ages"

Estate Sales.

At the estate sales of Col. JESSE McKIN-
NEY and JAMES McKrNNEY, deceased, six
negroes were sold at an average of 1922
each. Corn brought one dollar and .ftty
one cents per bushel 1t was credit sale
with interest.
The sale Of corn, the "oldest inhabitants
says, is the most extraordinary that has
ever taken place in the district, but very
properly causes no excitement. Would it
not be we'll, however, for people gener-
ally under the circumstances, to hus-
band their resources? We know of no
Egypt, except a railroad market.

Death of Maj. Whitfield.

We are Pained 10 learn that Maj ]. T.
WHITFIELD died on Tuesday last, at An
derson G. II. The immediate cause of his
death has not reached us, but he had lived
toa ripe old age. He represented Pendle.

of years, and, at the time Of his death, was
the oldest lawyer on the Western circuit.

New Currency,

The following resolution, adopted at a
late meeting of the Stockholders of the
Greenville and Columbia Railroad, smacks
of Wild cat" speculation rather strongly
for us:
F" ReSoLved, That the Board Of Directors
be authorized to issue 100000 in memo
randum checks, for one, two and three dol
lars, to be signed by the President and coun-
tersigncd by the Auditor, and used in the
payment of any debts of the Company and
that they be received at the different de-
pots of the Company in payment of any
dues fol. freight or passage"
We would advise the public to be on its
guard when receiving it.

by a recent arrival from Europe, we
learn that the English government has re-
jected the Central American treaty that
passed the Senate before its adjournment.
Thus is re.opencd difficulty that came
near involving the country in war last
year, but We are not apprehensiYe of such
result now. Otherwise, the intelligence
by this arrival is unimportant.
The Granadan difficulty "drags its slow
length along" without, we believe, fright

will settle it-perhaps, flibusterngly!

The Battalion Review.

The upper battalion Of the I'd Regiment
paraded for review ON Saturday last, at the
usual place Of rendezvous. Maj. ROGERS
commanded, and, we are but according to
him his just due, when we say that he ac-
quilted himself handsomely. The men,
too, were prompt in the discharge of their
duty. Col. PRArnEn, with brilliant staff,
reviewed and, at the close, addressed the
battalion in few brief and appropriate re-
marks.
The presence Of the Pickens and Wal
halla Rifemen, with full ranks, seemed to
iEfuso military spirit and ardor into the
movements of all. They are ornaments to
the battalion, and through it to the second
Regiment.
The officer in command deserves the
thanks of all for the preservation Of order
during the day.
