RESPECT FOR THE DEAD.

We understand there is o subscription list in
circulation, for the purpose of raising funds to
enclose the graveyard of the Independent Presby-
teran Church, at this place, with iron railings.-
This is timely measure and we wish it success.
We owe respect and reverence to the dead, and
can show it in no better way than by properly Sc
curing and adorning their final resting-place If
the heathens who knew nothing of our christian
doctrines, embalmed the body, and erected mau
soleums, catacombs and tombs for it to repose in,
much more ought we to honor this fral tenement,
which, we believe, will one day rise in imperisha-
BILE newness and vigor, and assert its immortality
with the soul. The dead live in the memory of
their posterity. Their pious example, when they
have been scattered by the tomb" breathes the
holy fragrance of virtue over the tender flowers
they leave blooming in the garden of life.
How solemn and sweet place is the graveyard
There the mother weeps the grave of her first
born, and prays for and receives strength to ell
dure, to struggle and to hope. There the husband
gathers from the tomb new sense of the unearth-
ly sweetness of recollecting his first love. There
the preacher finds the themes of his deepest med
itations and his grandest eloquence. There groups
of young persons, strewing pale flowers over loved
ones lost, forget their folly and learn that the

ed from Barnwell to Columbia, in 1854. While in
Barnwell he was there also highly esteemed, and
was honored by seat in the State Legislature.
The district again erinced her confidence in him
by sending him as delegate to the State Conven-
ton of 1852. He was also deeply interested in
our State College, of which, as Chairman of a
committee, appointed for that purpose, he prepar-
ed an edition of the College laws. At the time
of his death, he was engaged by the State in re-

WASHINGTON IRVING.

Our exchanges bring us an account, which VIC
publish this week, of the death of WASHINGTON
IRVING. on the 2Sth ult., at Irvington on the Hud
son. While the nation mourns the author of Grip
Van Winkle" and ''The Broken Heart '--her great
master of genial humor and genuine sentiment
we would call one truth from the philosophy Of
q life so sublime in its purposes and so successful
in its results.
"He was destined for the legal profession, and
after receiving an ordinary academic education,
commenced, at the age of sixteen, the study Of
the law. After abandoning the study once, and
then resuming it, he was finally admitted to the
Bar at the age of twenty-three. But, minerva in
vita, he never practiced his profession having
early exhibited inclinations and tastes which un-
fitted him for its duties, and finally determined
him to devote himself to literary pursuits"
This yielding to Minerva uchen unwilling, and
obedience to his own tastes and inclinatons, are
what made him great man. By devoting his
life to that for which God and nature fitted him,
he has left behind him name that will travel
down the ages to immortality. "Knickerbocker's
New York." the "Sketch Book" "Bracebridge
Hail." "Tales of a Traveller" and the Lives Of
columbus" and "Washington," are the fruits Of

ADDRESS OF COL. w. B. WILSON.

An apology is due to our readers for our appa.
rent neglect, in failing to notice the very admra'
BILE address. delivered by Col. W. B. WILSON be-
fore the Yorkville Lyceum, on the night of the
oath ut. 1t is due to ourselves to state that the
critical notice, which the address merited, was
expected from the "Editor-in-Chief, whose at,
tendance upon the address prevented the necessi-
ty of further than pleasurable attention on the
part of others but his unexpected absence has
delayed to the present, apd rendered possible only
the general expression of our appreciation.
The subject, Southern Civilization" was treat
ed with much more than superficial measure; and
in his keen looks into the future and manly views
of the present we recognize the intellectual prom
ise of the speaker. The political sentiments e1-
pressed, were such as every Southron, and, espe-
cally, every South Carolinian will be proud to
assimilate; and coinciding with the speaker in
the confidence with which he foretells the progress
and purpose of Southern Civilization, we can ear
nestly look long for the fufllment ofits prom
ises in the future.
At meeting Of the Lyceum, held on the 2Sth
ult., the following resolution was unanimously
adopted -
Resolved, That in the semi-annual Address on
Thursday evening last Col. W. B. Wilson emf
nenty fulfilled the expectations of the "Yorkville
Lyceum," and that the thanks Of this association
are cordially extended to him for his interesting,
able and eloquent effort on that occasion.

PORTRAIT PAINTING.

The presence in our town of Mr.. ]. j. B1sBEE,
portrait painter, affords an unusually advan-
tageous opportunity for those who may desirs
to fix, in almost living lineaments, the faces Of
those whose beauty, like the dew, soon passes
away or of the loved ones, who, although present
ever in the heart, have been taken for "aye" from
this home.
Mr. B1sBEE, we learn, has been engaged, for the
past week, in painting the portraits of members
of the family of one of our citizens, and, we un-
derstand, has given eminent satisfaction. With a
a graphic truthfulness in the delneation of the
features, his adaptation of the harmony Of colors
and true admixture of light and shade, certainly
render his portraits superior to the usual run of
those of artists we have seen.
His terms are very moderate, and he warrants
satisfaction. Those who may desire his services,
or may wish to inspect his pictures, will be re-
paid by calling on him at "Rose's Hotel"

He looked calmly around on the people, fully
self-possessed. He mounted the scaaold with
firm step. His arms were pinioned by the Sheriff,

were pulled away, and, with few slight strug-
gles Brown yielded up his spirit.
His body was placed in the coffin, and subse-
quently carried to Harper's Ferry, under strong
military escort, to be delivered up to his wife.

The December number Of this able and well
conducted Magazine is on our table. We have
neither time nor space to enter into detailed ac-
count of its merits; but for depth of learning,
variety of entertainment, justness and discrimi-
nation of criticism, it is unsurpassed by any
Monthly that has fallen under our notice. It's ar
ticles are wellwritten; and its select paragraphs,
cleaned from the greatest authors of all ages, are
always jewels. The poetry is generally either
transations from the French or German, or origi-
nal In the present number, DR.. L1EBER's 'In-
troductory Lecture" the critique, copied from
the North American Repiew, on GILMORE SMMs'
last novel; and the poem, entitled "The Merry
Monarch" by VIM. WINTER, taken from the New
York Saturday Press, are we'll worth the price.
Of the literary notices we can not speak, as we
have not read the books criticised. The editors,
however, are good judges Of a book; and the

EXECUTION OF BROWN.

OssAwAToMIE BROWN WAS executed on Friday,
the End instant in the midst of great military pa.
rade. There was not the shadow Of an attempt
at rescue. The hundreds of threatening and
warning letters which Gov. WISE has received
from the North, seem to have been all ''fuss and
no feathers" The heroism and martyrdom to
which BROWN has been exalted, did not save him
from the gallows. After running career Of
crime in Kansas, and afterward. setting himself
mp as the "High Admiral of Gods seas" to infict
shigher-law" vengeance on oil shareholders sail
ing thereon, he has split upon the rock of his own
folly. The vultures will gather up the carrion,
then all is done. So be it to all the pike-n1en.
