nIn HAMRIIDG.

At the risk of rs-arousiog the "Newberry Vindic-
tivos," We WM say "old Hamburg;" and we will
moreover say, "hurrah for old Hamburg But it is
not the Viudictive," we are after this time: 1t is
the Winnsboro Reyister, who has been twitting old
Hamburg in connection with her late FIRE; says he
did not think there $4,000 in the burgh, to be
lost; and udds an expression of wonder, az to how
many than five people ars there to lose by fire.
We will toll you brother Reyister, that there are
more things, not only in heaven and earth, but in
Hamburg also, than you have dreampt Of in your
philosophy There arc perhaps no "spstted mice"
for IN editor to show up to an admiring constituency
such as the one Mr.. SMART showed to you, and
which was caught-(miseratile dictu)-by so subu-
nary an artfcs as ga common wire mouse-trap."
But there is set of the best coton-buyers there in
all these Southern States of ours, who give the best
of prices, and could supply South Carolina, il need
b. with the best Of planters goods Of all descriptions
and of groceries, liquors &c, &C., all which it would
be entirely too tedious TO enumerate Yes, brother
Regster VIC repeat it because We know it;-they are
tho best cotton buyers in tho South. They were Civ
ing liz the other day when your redoubtIbo "inn'-
boro buyers, according to your own account, could
only squeeze out lOs for the choicest article; And
the week your men succeeded in buying. 1S2 balos
ours bought more than thousand. That ought to
be talk enough to settle the question. And this is
the course of affairs a the winter and every winter
with US. We respectfully defy you brother Register
to beat HAMBURG with Winnsboro,-we had almost
said you might throw in Cotton-town Of Columbia
But this would perhaps be going little too far Cor
tain is though, that Winnsboro can't come it, with
all the Cotton buyers and spotted mice she can pro-
duce.
And thon if We chose to 60 and contrast our
Hamburg Bank with your little Fairfield concern,-
but, no wont press the contrast. The very idea
of comparing Hamburg with Winnsboro is enough to
raise up the shade of suULTz. Come,-"no more Of
that, Hal, an thou lowest me-"

EDGEFIELD HATS,

Messrs. WooLIY Soy, residing between Granite
vile village and the Graniteville Depot have estab-
ished bat-making business which deserves honorable
mention. They exhibited specimens Of their work Mt
our late District Fair, which readily took premium.
Their hats Of all kinds commanded general admira-
ton. Having procured one for our own caput can
speak adysedly upon the subject Mr.. WooLRr s
emo dress hats are Of superior quality; and, though
very taking at first sight, they decidedly improve
acquaintance The one We now wear is 3 capital hat,

lighted with it. All who have tried them, like them.
An experienced dealer in tho article examined ours
the other day, and, not knowing it Of Edgefeld
manufacture frankly gave the opinion that it was a
frst rate hat This is tho candid expression of
who trades with the best houses Of New York. Mr..
WooLEr not only makes fne hats but common ones,
NOT only mems hats but boys hats-plantaton hats
and business hats,-young Americas hats and Ssna-
tors hats. We wish him much good luck in his bus-
ness. He ought to be encouraged in his hsndspmo
and useful branch of manufactures. Mr.. WooLEY,
we had almost forgot to say took the premium ut the
last Charleston Fair, and confidently predict that
he will do so at the approaching Columbia Fair
Why7 Because his work is good, and no mistake
Under the circumstances, ahould not Mr.. WooLrr be
encouraged, especially by the people of Rdgefeld
among whom he has cast his LOTT Surely be should.
