In COUNCIL.-This afternoon the dus
KEY opposition Of this township. meet at the
Court House, to select delegates to the Re
publican County Convention. The aspi.
rants are as thick as fleas, there being at
least dozen candidates for every office to
be filled. The fight to-day will be to send
delegates favorable to the different candi-
dates to the County Convention. which
meets on the 10th. The anxious ones have
all been very busy for come weeks past, not
only here in the city, but they have visited
every portion Of the County, and we pre-
sumo every one of them has received prom
ises which warrant conviction Of their be-
ing successful. Some Of them are sure to
be disappointed. Big Mac. looks worried.
The promises made by Bill Inslee, that in
case he is elected. he will sell goods out Of
his store and take in payment County or
ders at par. IL having great effect upon
the minds Of the Egyptians. The only sal.
walton for Mac, is pledge to pay one per
cent premium for orders, IN cash. BY max
ing this pledge, he could take the wind en-
tirely out Of Bill. Ipsless calls:
Thompson and Leaks are likely to have
a big fight. They both have been doing .
large amount Of button-holetng, and We
should not be much surprised to see Leak
delegation sent to the Convention.
Linderman and Gulich will Of course,
have their friends at the meeting. and they
will both do all they can for their favorites.
We bet on Gulich.
Jim. Thorington takes matters very cool
". Poor Billy Cressler thinks his name
will come before the County Convention.
Ifit does. you will have to bring It forward
yourself, Billy.
We hope they may oil be satisfied. but
ve fear the officaa vill mot hold out.

The AURORA BoREALIs.-FROsT AND
IoE.-Thursday night the hea vens were
again illuminated by the brilliancy Of the
Northern Light. The sky commenced tarn-
ing red about ten o'clock. and by midnight
it was almost as light IS day. The heavens
at this time presented the MOST magnificent
appearance that could be conceived. Any
person who has attended an exhibition Of
"Dissolving Views" can conceive something
of its beauties.
The clouds rolled and tumbled like .
troubled sea, presenting . most gorgeous
appearance. The air was keen and chilly
ice having formed in some places. the six
teenth Of an inch thick. Vines Of different
kinds suffered severely, and the leaves Of
corn was frozen stiff. We do not think
corn will be materially injured unless we
should have continuance Of the same cold
nights, in which case it will be impossible
to calculate the injury that may accrue.
The appearance Of this brilliant light,
we are informed, heralds the near approach
Of very severe cold weather, which may
prove quite disasterous to outstanding crops.
Farmers tell US that this frost will prevent
potatoes growing any larger. This may be
30 and it may not. At all events We should
try the experiment Of letting them stay in
the ground short time longer. and see
how far they are injured. for if dug now the
crop will be "small potatoes and few in q
hill"
In the New England States, the light was
full as brilliant as it was here. Our dis
patches from Boston give some wonderful
accounts of it's appearance. and effect upon
telegraph wires.
1t is well worth loosing nights sleep to
view this great phenomenon, and as many
have never seen it. we suggest the propriety
Of our citizens turning out en- mass this
evening and giving the critter n benefit.

News from Washington.
WASHINGTON, Feb. Is.
The passage of the Oregon bill was celebrated
last night by ssrenading the Senator's elect from
that State as we'll as several other distinguished
gentlemen including Hon. Messrs. Letcher, Orr
and stephsns, ali of whom responded with short
speeches.
Afterwards the crowd accompanied by the en-
tire Marine band, went to the White House and
treated, the President to few appropriateairs.-
Mr.. Buchanan responded, and sincerely congrat-
ulated the friends of the measure on the advent
of the State into the Union. He compmented
Gen. Lane in high terms, and characterized him
as q gallant soldier, and an accomplished states
man; he had won deserved houors by eSertons
tending to bring Oregon into the Union.
The party then proceeded to the residence OF
Vice President Breckenridge, who said that when
ever he could, he had given the bill push and
expected to swear in both Senators.
In regard to Cuba, he said we talked too much,
and did too little; when England wished to do
thing, she did it, and talked afterwards fCuba'
instead of being placed at the mouth of the Gulf
of Mexico laid at the opening of the British chan
mel, England would take it'in ten days. He was
in favor of the acquisition of Cuba. He would
not rob for it, but would act with any portion OF
his felow.citizeus in using all honorable means to
acquire it.

Catawba Language. L

A New York paper thus speaks of the observa-
tions of Oscar NJ Lieber, our State Geologist on
the Vocabulary and characteristics of the language
Of the Catawbas, in a contribution prepared by
him for the Historical Society of South Carolina
Before another century has passed away, the
face of nature so far as her living forms of abor
irinal men and animals are concerned, will, we
fear. have greatly changed. The physical features
of the continent will indeed remain and the mas
siye and the many folded ranges of the Alleghan-
les and the vast lakes will furnish tourists with
sublime features, from Niagara to the Sault and
the pictured rock of Lake Superior, but all else
will have suffered mutation The Indian race will
probably have departed, and with 1t many of the
wild animals and birds will also yield to the lnVa-
sion Of the domestic animals which attend the
steps of the man of civilization. Perhaps in some
secluded gorges and valleys of the Rocky Noun
taips, or the rayines of the numerous Sierras of
Mexico, a few families of the old races may sur
yiye. aud retain in their neghborhood the deer,
the buffalo, and the beaver. But they will be
rare indeed, if the step Of improvement in the
future is as neglectful heretofore of the men of
America and the animated nature which clustered
about him. .
tWe confess that we feel no little interest in all
that concerns our aborigines, and consider IT q
duty to preserve every relic Of their history,
character, traditions and languages. The officers
of our army especially, who will be thrown into
contact with the wild races west of the Mississippi,
should, while preserving accurate notes Of the
Typography, geology, and the plants and animals
Of these regions not forget to secure the manners
and customs, and above all, the languages of the
various tribes with whom they may come in con-
TACT :,
Our attention has been drawn to this subject
by perusing q vocabulary of the language of the
Catawba tribe of Indians, with remarks on its
grammar, construction and pronunciation, by
Oscar NJ. Lieber, Esq, the State Geologist OF
South Carolina. The Catawbas were race that
inhabited part of the territory of the State of
South Carolina, once powerful but now dwindled
down to q handful of about fifty
The analysis of this tongue and the mode pur-
sued to extract its rules of construction and IN
Elections will be found extremely interesting
Such problem of deciphering and re- re-constructing
q tongue has difficulties akin to those which at
tend the unfolding of the mysteries Of the monu
ments of Thebes or Nnevah, and We congratulate
Mr.. l.. on the success with which he has perform
ed the task he has assumed with full sense of
the obligations resting on him, to rescue from
oblivion what he emphatically characterized as
soon TO become not sonly dead language but d
language of the dead
