Catholic Spirit.

We take pleasure in complying with tho request
sages from sermon of JOHN WESLEY on "Catho-
lie Spirit" Tho attention Of "CHAkITY" is par
ticularly directed to these brief but pointed ex.
tracts:
"Nay, further :-although crery man necessari-
y believes that every particular opinion which lie
holds is true, (vr to believe any opinion is not truo
is the same thing us not to hold IT'D yet call no man
be assured that all his opinions, taken tOgeth
or, are true. Nay, every thinking man is assured
they are not Uamaaum rst errGrc ct nrScirr l.: to
Le ignorant of many things, and to mistake i'll
SOME, is the necessary condition or humanity"
"From hence wo may learn, first That Il catho-
lie spirit is not specmtdfire tutitudinnrianism 1t
is II ct an Indifference to oil opinions this is the
spawn of hvll, not tue offspring of heaven. This
uusetledness of thought this being driven to and
fro, aud tossed about with every wind Of doctrine"
is great curse, not blessing; au irreconclable
enemy, not friend, to truc catholicism. A man
of a truly catholic spirit has not now his religion
to seek. lie is fixed rs tho sun III his Judgment
concerning the lnuin branches uf Christian doctrine.
1T is truo ho is always ready TO henr anu
weigh whatSocycr can be offered against his prn-
ciplcs but ms this does not show amy wayering in
hi. own mind. 70 neither locs it ucensiun amy. lie
does not halt between two opinions, nor rainly
endcavur to blend them into one. Observe this,
You who know not what spirit yc nrc of: who call
Yourselves men Of Il catholic spirit, only hccallsc
YOU are Of n muddy understanding; bccarso your
mind is all in mist because you have no set
tied, consistent principles, but are for jumbing
ull upiniuus together. Ee convinced TINT YOU
huvu quite missed your way; you know not where
you arc. Yuu think you have got into the Very
spirit of Christ when, in truth, you are nearer
the spirit of un;i-christ. Co. first and learn tho
first elements of the gospel OF Christ, and then
shall you learn to be of truly catholic spirit"

We would invite very special attention to the

Drug Business for number of years, and is IN

be fully up to any thing Of tho kind in the South

tho desire and ability, to make it so. Whatever

also in Liquors, Cigars, Condiments, and nice

Hon, James L, Orr.

Tho papers Of Col. 0rr's Congressional District
have spoken out, in the MAN, in terms highly COM
plimeutary to him upon his present retirement
from public life. The Spartanburg Spartan, COM
menting upon bis remarkably successful career,
says:
"Look at him. Ten years ago. an obscure and
young man, be entered Congress from State
whose rcfractoriness denied her influence, though
she commanded attention from the intelligence Of
her citizens and the ability Of her Representatives.
Too inexperienced to have definitely settled his
policy except upon general principles, he gradual
ly took ground lnoasurably opposed to the lending
men of his State, and maintained it with unfaltcr
ing steadness. In the midst of bitter denuncia-
tiUn from ultraists, he persevered in Calculating
his politics, until finally his Congressional decade
eliminated in the speaker>hip. Truly these were
ten years well spent, having relation only to HIM
self; but, to see, at the end of his service, set
,ing down of the sentiment of the State only tech
nically different from the course he has pursued,
is indeed satisfaction and measure Of honor to
fill his cup to the briln."
The Spartan then holds out the possibility Of
his yet occupying still ofler position before the
country and expresses itself assured in the belief
that his great self-possession, sterling integrity,
and splendid administrative talents will merit u
record rs fur as any Executive has left upon the
pages of his cuuntry's history.

The blue Ridge Question.

The Anderson Gazette gives an interesting nc
count of complimentary serenade to several dis
tinguished gentlemen who were present in that vii
lage at the late session Of Court Major D. T. Per-
ny, Gen. S. MCGOWAN, and others, responded in
eloquent terms. The reason of tho compliment,
was the advocacy by these gentlemen, of the Blue
Ridge cause during the last session of tho S. c.
Legislature. Both speakers expressed the hope
that tho measure of aid would pass at the next ses
sion. After IN hour or twe of music and good
speaking, the company quietly adjourned for the
uvoning ind went to bed. A tremendous effort
will bc made in the Legislature next winter to
carry on this Blue Ridge enterprise by State Aid.
We trust that the Edgefeld delegation will 60
down united in support Of the road. If NC arc
not greatly mistaken, the people Of the District
are in favor of it by largo Odds and is expected
that our delegation will Tin this matter) net US the

But really, the season's advancing, and why
Does SCOOTER no longer his old furrows try?
Can't be, that the past work has worn of tho edge
That wns death te the cut.worn, the grass, and
broomsedge?
Or has the past winter, so rainy and warm,
Thus rusted the ScooTER and bro't him to harm?
Altho' we're no smith, whether whitc-smith"
or "black,"
A good hammer r-heat might perchance bring
that back
Which the various soils, from "mulatto" to
"gray"
Have deprived our old SCOOTER Of" Scooting"
away.
Is there no patent wonder, the planter to save
From old-fashioned labor? No word gay or
grave,
To teach him how Cotton, Corn, Codlings or
Rice,
Best flourish when planted, and increase in the
price?
What live-stock's most thrifty, the pigs that arc
best;
Whether shapghac's or Game-fowls, most feather
the nest
In word, where is SCOOTER? tits time O. tho
year,
That both lie and COULTER should be and appear.
IF now, Mr.. EDITOR, you'll undertake,
For the good Of the country, this scoorER to
wake;
We,ll endeavor to suit him with strong oaken
stock,
Well handled, and braced to Withstand ev'ry
