and that if the Italians are allowed to en-
counter their enemies on equal terms, they
will add to the many glories of their native
land" The modern Italians are not likely
to add TO the glories of any land by the use
of the sword. They sing well, dance well,
and some of them paint we'll; but they are
VIGOROUSLY not given to fighting well. The
Neapolitans especially, upon whom Carl
BALDI seems TO rely for the opening of the
struggle. would much rather eat than fight.
Italy, like her Eternal City, has seen her
glories star by star, expire" and a century
may elapse ere she shall see them relumed.
She nurses within her own bosom a swarm of
Goths aud Vandals which are as fatal 10 her
freedom and prosperity was the barbaric
horde of the on-banded ALARIC to the glory
of Rome. The wrongs of Italy must remain
unredressed--the chains which fetter her
once delicate but now rude limbs must re-
main unbroken-until there shall arise some
daring hero with the courage, the strength
and the determination o emulate the deeds Of
The Patriot TelL-the Bruce of Rannockburn."
Tn other words. the only hope of Italy lies
in the Military Editor ofthe PATRIOT and one
OF his city contemporaries. GARIBALDI and
VIcrOR EMMANUEL can do nothing for her.

School Defamation.

On Friday afternoon last, VIC had the sai.fac-
ton of hearing the young men and boys of Mr..
FERnEL's Academy, in public defamation. Many
of them acquitted themselves handsomely In
spireil by the presence Of Mr.. GwALrSEi's beauti-
full flock of girls, some Of the speakers rose to
degree of merit highly creditable, considering that
this exercise has been omitted in our Academy for
very well in many respects. Other youths too
deserve mention on account of their evident ambi-
ton to succeed; but We cannot discriminate here
After hearing them all several times, VIZ will be
better able to form correct opinion of their rela
tive merits. We hope the school will attend to
this duty ~ carefully they can without inter
fering with other studies. 1t is great mistake
to speak of it as IN unimportant exercise. Those
who go to culego will have reason to be glad that
they had this practise imposed upon them ut
school. 1t will give them an ease Of manner in
mounting the College roStrum which thcy would
not otherwise possess. Those also who may 70 to
the profession of law will find their school expert
in defamation, if rightly cultivated, Of great
assistance. Indeed for every youth there is bcnc-
fit in this eScrcisc. 1t stores the mind with rich
gems of composition, with noble thoughts nobly
expressed, with specimens Of humor, wit and
eloquencr, in prose and in verse, upon which the
future man will draw largely and to good purpose
Remember that ideas, and words, and phrases
mastered ut this early period of life are ten times
| as indcliblc Us when acquired in manhood.

Denli, of nm old Editor.

The Columbia papers announce the death Of
Dr. AESER LASpRrM in that vicinity about the
first of this month. The Bulletin well says OF
him:
"Mr. Lauarum was much respected, and regard

pIrtixans were urrLycd against him ON account Of
his Unpu sentiments. lie lived respected by all
who knew him and be died, leaving record Of II
well spent life, without blot or tarnish to mar his

of EdseGcli. In the year 1924 he took charge.

called the SouA carolinaRspuJ'ican. Shortly af-
tcrwards hc and DR.. DRAzIEn bought the press &C.,
from LOTION and continued the publication for
shorttimc They sold out to L. II. WAEpLAw and
I. SUMTER NAYS. DR.. LASnnrM then established
uu.rto paper which he called the Edgeiield Hirc,
and continued its publication in this vicinity until
1850, when be removed the paper to Columbia.
To this course he is understood to have been urged

are correctly informed. the Nire was tho chief Or
yin of that party in South Carolina. We believe
Dr.. LASpErM continued the paper until 1885, al
though We are not informed as to the precise pc
riod Of its cessation.

Arrest Of Incendiaries.

sequent burning of the stable of Mr.. W. H.

river, man by the name of James S. Parker,
formerly an employee of the establishment for
II short time, upon whom certain circumstances
of strongly suspicious character were attach.
cd, was arrested and confined in inil ON the
charge Of having caused the. first conilagra.
tion. During the past week lie has made O
confession, in which he duplicates George j.
Oberle as the ing.leader, and shoemaker
by the name Of August Weisser, as an accom-.
plice with himself in the nelarious transaction.
Ills confession is strongly corroborsted by
circumstances developed on the morning after
the recent unsut cessful attempt on the car.
riage shops, in which the watchman was fired
upon by one Of the party. All of these men
are. now confined III our Jail to await their
trial. Weisscr has also made confession
since his imprisonment in which lie states
that Obeele and h: were the parties concerned
in the last attempt alluded to. Seldom has a
case of crime occurred in which convicting
facts have been so plainly developed as in this,
and VIC must here acknowledge that much
praise is due to Messrs. G., c., NJ. & Co. for
the steady, judicious and persevcring manner
in which their researches have been prosecu.
ted for the purpose of ferreting out the per.
petrators of the diabolical deed--a crime not
only committed against their private inte ests,
but of the community in general.-Greenville

Horse Flesh.

Our people Of Edgefeld always took pride in
keeping fine horscs, and were always remarkable
for riding them well. But ncvur did this spirit
rise so high or extend widely as ut present.
There ere said to bo some sixty stations ut this
time in the district, al of them profitable to their
--sonle of them particularly well bred. Among
these last We notice two with especial pleasure.
l. Dick. Cheath"m, belonging to Majur L. G.
BACON, is one Of the most beautiful animals We
have ever seen. lie comes up to the true ideal Of
q perfect horse. Ut the most approved pedigree,
he is the worthy son of noble sires The district
is fortunate in possessing him.
2. Challenge, belonging to Mcssrs. GooDE &
BLAND, is w-coner from tho far-off State Of
Vermont. lie is one of the finest living scions Of
tho celebrated Iorgan stock lie will indeed chal-
lsnye comparison with the horsO-fesh Of the Union,
His qualities urc evOry way superior. 1Iu is gon-
tic, yet full Of spirit, 1eOt but rs manageable in
harness US the bcst-broke family drudge lie has
made the time Of 2,4O with case. He is now near
the full perfection Of his powers, being about Ave
years old. 1t requires no prophet to predict that
this elegant horsc will vastly improve our stock
in Edgefold. SEQ what they ray Of him whcrc be

Address by y. KrSSELI. MIDDLETON, the Poem by
PAIL II. IAYSE. They are tho oAsprings oi
chaste and cultivated minds, and form a literary
couple worthy to bo bound together and to be pre-.
served together.
The Introductory stanza Of the poem il equal to
any thing written since the golden ase Of English
poetry:
There are two worlds wherein our souls may
dwell,
Two mighty worlds l'y eager spirits sought,
One the loud mart wherein men buy and SELL
The haunt Of srovcllins Moods, and shapes of
lIcll.--
The ether that immaculate realm Of Thought,
In whose cbri.ht Calm he master workmrn wrought,
Where genius lives nn light,
And faith is lost in sight:
Where the full tides of perfect music swell
p to the heavens that never held II cloud,
And round great ultars rcvcrent hosts are bowrd,-
Affairs urreare,l Ia Love that cannot dir,
To Beauty that forever keeps its youth,
To kingiy Grandeur. and to virginia. Truth,
Tuall things wise and pure.
Whereof our God hath said, "end,rc endure!

Judge O'Neall and Edgefield.

The venerable Judge, in IL letter to the South
Carolina Son IF temperance, thus speaks of our
retired town:
E'sclicd, as town. has many beautiful, sub
urban residences. 1t has. too an intelligent popu
lation and II very intelligent ministry-Mr. llub-
ersliam. of the Episcopal. Mr.. Pickett. of the
Mctll"lst, anil Mr.. Gwaltney. Of tho Baptist
Churches. They are all united in opinion against
the srns shop influence and intcmpcrance. and if
they will unite further and point the artillery Of
their pulpi;s against tLoSt vices, social drinking
and gambling. th"y will place Edseiicd on the
high ground of religious sobristy and good order"
We hope his Honor does not intend the inference
tiat she is IF "thc high ground of religious
sobriety and good ORDER and yet, to say the
truth, she is not exactly On it. But are the other
villages any higher mp than ours in this respect
Are they not, in point of fact, about upon lorol
Edgcfeld will not admit any other decision, even
from 80 authoritative source as Judge O'NEALL.
In one thing we lay claim to being little ahead
of ercn Newber,y. It is this: There is not house
nor part Of bousc to rent within our corporate
limits, while new buildings are continually go
ing up and tic old ones being repaired This we
have from one who ha. looked al around town,
and it is here noted as II sort of challenge to our
village contemporaries.

Scathing Rcbuke.

In the debate upon the Cuba question, Mr..
Seward characterized it as "the miserable,
pitiful, false, fabulous pretended issue which
the President Of the United States has forced
upon us"
MI $roombs replied to the scurrilous assault
as III sows:
bit the Senator from New York is ex.
tret6Hy valorous. tell him that he has one
valor that I never want to have. never cx-
pect to stand in this body and say the gentle.
maj A5ecupying the Chief Magistracy Of this
cou| |Ery has uttered sentiments false, fabulous,
and pretended. This charge is brought
agatst the President of the United States.
For forty years he has served his country.
For forty years he has had the confidence OF
one ofthe largest States in this Commonwealth.
For forty years he has held the rela' ions Of o
gentleman here. For forty years he has been
ready to defend his personal honor as gen.
! tlemap, wherever it was assailed. lie has
hell himself responsible everywhere, i'll this
bod dyand elsewhere, to maintain his personal
honor wherever it was assailed and is it
courageous in gentleman who is not ready
TO defend his honor anywhere to assail the
Chief Magistrate of the country with language
that he dare not apply to u gentleman in a
position to make him responsible; that lie
dare not apply to ME. That is the point.
Sir, call the attention Of the country to it.
say his position torbids the President from
replying to it. His position as President and
Chief Magistrate Of this country throws him
out Of the way of that defence of his personal
honor which becomes every gentleman here.
Even if believed it, as u man Of honor, with
reference to his position as Chief Magistrate
of m&ountry, think no Senator should use
such language. 1t is unbec. ming the Senate.
say it is the language which no Senator res.
ponSble for what he says, would utter.
Whilst but few men, connected as am, even
nouhhally if you please, with the Democratic
party, find fewer causes of agreement than
do with the Chief MAJ sistratei yet I feel it my
duty to repel this charge. Sir, repe it MS

and that he has uttered in the Senate what be

For the Advertiser.
Hone and FOrtunp

It is amazing in what unsubstantial Indications
the sanguine find grounds for hope. As the powers
of the microscope convert the grOsn mould of some
doc1ying object into vcrdsnt forests and bowers OF
bliss, the eye Of youth discovers promise in tho
evening of a cloud, and its buoyant heart dances
for joy at the broken strain of distant md unat-
tsinabls music. To such dcgroo of fallacious
hope, however, is not that which is based upon
some surer and firmer foundation. Such, for in
stance, as investing the small Gum of ten, five,
two sid half dollars in Woon, EDDY Co.'s
grsat;legalised lottery. by forwarding either Of
these.amounts to WooD, EDDY & Co., either at
Augusta, Georgia, or Wilmington, Delaware, the
wooer of dame fortune at the shrine of her farors
will insure q chance Of rsslisng his hopes in d
prize Of fifty thousand dollars. ll6.

S SuuNttcr SOyrcionty.S

This term is objected to ~ savoring of "fronticr

tho word well expresses the idea it intends to con-

lance. 1t is an ugly term conveying an ugly idoa.
We arc glad TO find that the press Of South
Carolina is undivided on the subject, so far us
principle is concerned. But in the matter of car
rying out the principle, there is Il difference. Must
of our journals agree that Congress should inter
