THE CIRCUS.

In consequence of high water, Messrs. ORToN
& OLpEn's Circus failed to reach Yorkyille at the
time advertised in the bills. Leaving behind
many long face and well-kept "half," they took
q snear cut" and going by way of Dallas were,
when last heard from, in hot haste after their
"forerunner.
A rich incident of their visit to Greenvlle will,
in the absence of a ring performance. do to laugh
at. We quote from the Grecnvillc correspondence
of the Columbia Bulletm:-
We had quite novel speculation here on Mon
day last Our Council passed an Ordinance i'm
posing $500 tax, per day, OIL Circuses. When
the Company arrived, the manager went to one OF
the Council and desired to know why they were
taxed SO high. The reply was, that they madcso
much money here, they could afford to pay it,
The Circus man replied, by saying, that he would
take $3.50 90 for what they would make, and it was
thought they would 60 to the Race Course, and
spread their canvass, rather than pay the tax.
The offer of the Snowman soon got out, and
company of young men agreed to give S4OO. 90 for
the door money, which offer was accepted by Or
ton & Older This was IL o'clock. At o'clock,
it commenced raining in torrents and blowing very
hard The exhibition opened, however, and they
took in obout S12500. At night it cleared off,
and pretty fair house was obtained, but in wind
ing up the trade, the spectators had TO fork over
something like Sl2l.00 to the Circus. Fool q

Sale of the Yateh Wanderer.

correspondent of the New York Express thus
describes the snle Of the yatch Wandcrer by the
United States Marshal, at Savannah, few days
ago:
At II o'clock, good crowd had collected,
when Mr.. Stewart. the United States Marshal,
proceeded to sell trunk which was found on
beard, containing private papers belonging to
Captain Corrie. He stated that there was nothing
but letters and papers in. the trunk, and hoped
that some person would buy 1t and send It to Cap
tain Corrie. Mr.. C.. A. Lamar then bid one dol
lar, at which price it was knocked of to him. The
Marshal then read the advertisement under which
he offered the Wanderer for sale, when Mr. Lamar,
who was standing by his side, said: Gentlemen,
I claim thisreasel as my property, taken from
me by the high hand of the law. intend to buy
her, and it remains with you whether shall be
compelled to pay high price for her or not" The
Marshal then commenced the sale. The first bid
WAS $500, and from this it-ran slowly up to $3.50,
when Mr.. Charles Van Horn, the jailor of Chat
ham county, who was bidding against Mr.. Lamar,
Jumped to $1,000. 1t then ran along between
these two, S25 at q time, till it reached about
$8,500, with the exception of two or three more
$3.50 starts by Van Horn.
There was very little dwelling on any bid, each
party nodding as soon as the bid of the opposite
party was announced. Several gentlemen in the
crowd spoke to Van Horn, begging him to cease
bidding, as they did not consider it right after
what Lamar had said, but he went on until his
last bid was S3,975. Lamar bid $4,000, and
the Wanderer was knocked off to him. He was
standing directly beside the United States Mar
shal, and Van Horn was in front, about ten feet
distant. I was facing Lamar, and as the bidding
went on, I saw that in his eye which betokened
mischief, and watched the motions of the parties
accordingly. As soon as the sale was completed,
Lamar walked towards Van Horn denounced him
with most opprobrious epithets, and Is he conclu-
ded be got near enough to strike, which he did
effcctuaAy. The blow took effect on Van Horns
ear, turning him completely around, and forcing
him to describe almost somersaut to the ground.
The crowd cheered bravo most Justify, and closed
around. Van Horn was partially stunned by the
blow, but got up and made rush towards Lamar
Both parties are accustomed to 60 armed, and a
scene was anticipated. Cries of "Pitch in, Char.
ley;" 'give it to him." "Eill him." &c., were
made; but it was net easy to tell which side they
intended to encourage, as both are known by the
name of Charley" Friends Of both parties in
,erferred, and the threatened aPray was prevented

No.. One of the Editors of the Grcenvile Pa
triot and Kountaineer, writing from Anderson C.
H., has the following in reference to the Spring
Term of the Court of Common Pleas and Genera
Sessions:
His Honor Judge Whitner gave quite lengthy
charge to the Grand Jury, aud reviewed fully the
duties devolving upon them as the conservafors
of the public interests of the District. He stated
with perspicuity the order of business, and neti-
fed parties itigant, witnesses, jurors and lawyers
that be would enforce these rules strictly.
He told the members Of the Bar that he should
not have them called if they were absent at any
time from the Court room, and that it was their
business to be present all the while. These rules
are necessary to be adhered to, in order to dis
patch business with facility. We are really glad
to see step made in this direction, for the pro.
gress of business is often impended by lack of a
erict enforcement of the attendance Of parties up
on the sttings of the Court.
Col. Reed, the Solicitor, has quite number of
bills Of indictment to hand out to the Grand Jury,
but the most if not all, ore for minor offences
and misdemeanors. He has one indictment of o
novel character, not punishable by statutory en-
actment, viz: against woman charged with be.
ing o Common Scold." Now, this is serious
charge, and if this good tempered ,coman is con-
victed the Sheriff of this District, Col. Dobbins,
will be placed under the unpleasant necessity of
immersng her in a-pool of water This offence
is frequently known and punished in England,
but it is certainly of rare occurrence in the United
States s. D. Ct.

Description of our SGUiour.-The Boston Jour.
nal says that the following episte was taken by
Napoleon from the pubic records Of Rome, when
he deprived that city Of 80 many valuable manu-.
scripts. 1t was written of the time and on the
spot where Jesus Christ commenced his ministry
by Publius Centullus, Governor of Judea, to the
Senate of Rome-Cmsnr, Emperor. 1t was the
custom in those days for the Governor to write
any event of importance which transpired while
lie held Office
Conscript Fathers There appeared in these
our days man named Jesus Christ, who is yet
living among US, and of the Gentiles is accepted
as prophet Of great truth; but his own disci-
pies call him the Son of God. He hath raised
the dead, cured all manner of diseases. He is q
man of stature, tall and comely, with very rud-
dy countenance, such rs the beholdcr may love
and fear. HIS hair is the color of the flbcrt
when fully ripe plain to his ears, whence down
ward tits most ornet in cplor, curling and waving
about his shoulders in the middle of his head is
n seam or partition of long hair, after the manner
of the Nazaritcs. His forehead is plain and deli
cate, his face without spot or wrinkle, beautiful,
with comely red-hs nose and mouth are ex-
actly formcd-beard the color of his hnir and
thick, not of any great height, but ,forked. In
rcproving, he is terrible; in admonishing, couf
teous; in speaking very modest and wise; In
proportion Of body, well shaped. None have ever
seen him laugh, but many have seen him weep.
A man, for his surprising beauty, excelling the
children Of men.

Further changes had taken place in the British
ministry; while others, Indicating the withdrawal
of the Lord Chancellor and Of the Colonial Score

people to embark IN the war, and rumnrs Of the
Immediate, withdrawal Of the Frenchand Austrian
forces from the Roman States. Lord Cowlcys in

:JFessrs. Editors Your correspondent arrived
10, this pleasant village yesterday, at about 4,
PM. The weather wasvery gloomy, and during
the night there was quite severe thunder at rm
and heavy fall of rain This morning the san
is ms bright, and the Shy as clear in the favor-
Sed cline of Italy. Bcnnettsville (the Count House
of Marlboro District) is situated about the mid
die of the District, au'l is reached by good roads,
(in good re0ther.) from Society Hill and Cheraw,
each distant about fifteen miles
The Pee Dee river is about six miles from the
village, and has = COOL landing for the Pee Dee
steamers at Gar,lner,s Bluff.
The surrounding country is extremely rich, and
the judic;ous use of gunno has made important
accessions to the wealth Of the phntcrs. There
are, herhaps, more persons in this ncighborhOod
who are comfortably situated, than in my other
portion Of the State, The community is highly

The prisoner, John c. Terrell, was arraigned
yesterday afternoon upon two indictments for
murder, and this morning he was brought into
Court and heard the indinctment on the third case
read His attorney, the eminent John A. Inglis,
addressed the Court in q solemn and impressive
manner, asking for postponement of the trial.
He reminded the Judge (Glover) that he was call
ed upon not alone to protect the State, but also
the accused, and urged in strong terms the post
ponemeRt of the case upon the ground Of preju-
dice against the accused, resulting from the short
| time which had elapsed since the occurrences
which led to the trial, the high esteem in which
some of the deceased parties were held, and the
near relationship of the accused to those whom he
is charged with numbering. He read petition
to the same effect, signed by ten citizens, and
submitted his motion to the decision Of the Judge.
Mr. McIver, the solicitor, stated his objection
to the postponement was the fact that he did not
believe the excitement of the community was other
than natural and proper under the circumstances,
and did not believe that the ends ofjustico would
be served by postponement. H. NJ c.

The Ursfern Gold Mines-A corresnondent

The Wrsten Gold Anes.-A correspondent Of
the Cincinnati Times, who has just returned from
Kansas says the river towns in Kansas and Ne
braska are now crowded with strangers, of every
nation, tribe and people, wandering about with a
forlorn look, bearing rifles on their shoulders and
making inquiries in regard to routes to the mines
outfits, &c. All the hotels are crowded to reple-
ton, and every western train and steamboat is
filled with people. Trains are how starting daily
from every important town on the Missouri river,
in Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas and Missouri. While
travelling five or six miles on the great Military
Road leading from Fort Lcavenworth to Fort Lara
mie, on Thursday last, he met four trains en- route
for the mines. In two Of them the wagons we're
drawn by mules and oxen; in the third, eight men
were attached to hand cart which contained their
outfits, and was so constructed as to float over
the streams. They designed to draw it the whole
distance-700 miles-to Pixies Peak. The fourth
was composed entirely Of pedestrians. with their
packs upon their shoulders. What will not men
do for gold?

Cattle Epidemic in Southwestern Georgia.-A
correspondent, writing from Florence, Stewart
county, Ga, in the course Of q business letter,
states that his COWS had recently been taken with
very fatal epidemic, dying. sometimes, at the
rate Of three or four in day; fourteen in all,
having died in twelve days. He thinks their sick
ness was caused by the COWS eating the peas
which grow on what is called clay-galled lime
lands; they seem to fatten and thrive on the peas,
and appear perfectly healthy. but will suddenly
drop down, and die in few hours. Having new
er heard any remedy prescribed, he put them up
in dry lot and as an experiment, gave them
salts on their food and in the water they drank.
Some refused to take it, and of these several sub
sequently sickened and died. Others took it free
ly, and not one of these were effected. He then
caught oil that refused, and drenched them with
salts, giving each one about q half pound, after
which he lost no more. A neighbor, whose cattle
began to be affected in a similar manner several
having died, adopted the same remedy, with the
most complete success. We give the facts as sta-
ted to US, for the benefit Of our planting friends.
