WOOLLAY TOWN HATS!
rr-. VHnNrTAV 4, som

AS well made, of as good material, and on as reqz
sopabe terms as can be found any where in the
United States.
Col. simkns, Editor of the Adre,7iser, a man Of
taste and good judgement, commend our Hats in
the following style
"Messrs. WooLLAY s. Son. residing between
Graniteville village and the Granitevie Depot,
have established q hatmaking business which
deserves honorable mention. They exhibit speci-
mems of their work at our late District Fair,
which readily took premium. Their hats of
all kinds commanded general admiration. Hav-
ing procured one for our own cap"t, VIC can speak
atvisetlly upon the subject. Messrs. WooILAys
fine dress hats are of superior quality; and,
though very taking at sight, they decidedly inn
prove on acquaintance The one we now wear is
capital hat, and we like it better and better every
day. General MCGOWAN, of AbbeYille, wore off
one from his last visit down this way and we have
no doubt he is delighted with It. All who have
tried them, like them. An experienced dealer in
the article examined ours the other day, and, not
knowing twas Of EdgeAeld manufacture, frankly
gave the opinion that it was first rate hat. This
is the Candid expression of one who trades with
the best houses of New York. Mcssrs. WooLLAY
not only make fine hats but common oncs,-not
only mems hats but boys hats,-plantation hats
and business hats-young Americas hats and
Senators mats. We WISH tiieii iiuSh Sopu iHeh
in their business They ought to be encouraged
in their handsome and useful branch Of manufac-
lures. Nlessrs WooLLAY, we had almost forgot to
say, took the premium at the last State Fair, and
We confidently predict that they will do so at the
approaching Columbia Fair. Why Because their
work is good, and no mistake. Under the circum-
stances, should not Messrs. WooLLAY be cncour-
aged, especially by the people of Edgciicld among
whom they have cast their lot? Surely they
should. Send down then to them at Granitevie;
send your measures and order your hats Try
them, merchants. Try them, planters. Try them,
all OF you. Their enterprise is good one: Their
worl; iG good. Their prices are fair. Their hats
arc bo:h fine and comfortable. Try them once,
and we venture 10 say yon will try them again. u

Our Municipal Affair Mt Aibany-TerribIe
Times Among the Politicians and Lobby
.yobbers.

Our Municipal Affair. Mt Aibany-TerribIe
Times Among the Politicians and Lobby
Jobbers.
The proceedings among our law makers at
Albany, of the last few days, in reference to the
municipal affairs and lobby jobs of this great
metropolis, have been intensely exciting. Our
Corporation spo.ls and plumber of twelve mil
lions year, ard numerous city railroad schemes
and jobs for laying out new Streets covering
many millions more Of lobby profits aud joint
stock pickiDgs and siealings, are the stakes for
which the contending parties are struggling. The
republicans, On their part, have shown from the
beginning their desires and their purposes; and
if they have failed thus far to accomplish their
endr, IL is because Of that inevitable difficulty of
dividing tremendously among themselves all this
immense schedule Of spells and plumber, which
they have resolved if possible to approp,ia to
their own party purposes, without the slightest
regard to the i'll OF the popular majority Of this
island.
BY reference to The proceedings in the Legis-
lature our readers will understand the pro-
gress made in the important work of our new
city charter, and in behalf Of those interesting
railroad and other jobs for the relief of the poll
ticians and lobby jobbers concerned. One of our
city cot mi oraries says that with $50 many
schemes and projects on the slate, and with
" 20 mapy interests involved, Influences
scarcely ever felt before have been brought
to bear upon all points" OF course this
tremendous contest has drawn to Albany
host of our leading representative men of all
parties, all interests, all clques and lobby COM
binations Prominent among them we fDd the
names Of Comptroller Hawes Peletiah PERT,
George Law, Fernando Wood, Benjamin Wood,
q. Il. Field, Judge Edmor DIS, A. Oakley Hall and
Joseph Blunt. Some Of these men are concerned
In the work of defeating, and some 10 favor, of
passing the new charter, which has passed the
House, and which hangs before the Senate like
the coffin Of Mabomet, between heaven and earth.
The opponents Of the bill expect to defeat Il
upon the nice and difficult question of dividing
the spoils. If, according to the great cardinal
principle Of Tittlebat Titmouse, every thing could
be given to everybody, there would be very little
trouble in the matter; but between the shorten
ing of one mans fat Office and the frightening
of that of another; between the device Of mere
spoils and mere political power in this depart
ment, and reduction of the power and the
spoils in that department, the politicians and the
lobby jobbers are all in state Of confusion

DEMOCRATIC DISTURBANCES IN VIRGINIA.
Among the intestine troubles of the Virginia de-
nocratic camp is feud which has just broken
out in the district represented in the late Con-
gress by. Mr.. Faulkner. The Clarke County
Journal, a democratic paper Of said district, has
hoisted the name of Mr.. Hunter for the Presi-
dency, Mr. Letcher for Governor, and is firing
bot shot against Mr.. Faulkner, the regular demo-
cratic nominee for Congress, Gov. Wise, Doug
las, and all concerned. An anti-Faulkner demo-
cratic movement has been started in the district;
but the Richmond Enquirer, though somewhat
distressed about it, says it will not amount to
anything being dictated by "motives of mere
personal hostility" We think, however, that
this detection, and The presence Of rival demo-
c,a,jc candidate for Congress to Extra William
smith IN bis district, and some other democratic
disturbances, here and there and everywhere in
Virginia, afford good deal Of solid encourage
ment to The new opposition party. Accordingly
we may expect some very surprising results in
the May election Of that State. That hosting Of
the flag of Hunter in Clarke shows where the
hoe pinches at Richmond. where Gov. Wise
rules the camp.

TRAVEL TO EURopE-How WILL THE THREAT
ENED WAR AFFECT IT with the opening of the
tourists season the travel from this country to
Europe commences very briskly. The two
steamers which sailed from this port yesterday
The Persia and Ednburg out about two
hundred cabin passengers each. 1t would ap-
pear from this fact that the danger Of general
war in Europe does not deter our tourists from
paying visit to the Old World, when, even in
his early part Of the season, we find so many
passengers booked for Liverpool IF wa- should
occur, there ia no doubt that Americans travel
ling in Europe will be greatly aforementioned,
even though the theatre of battle should be con-
fined to one locality. The difficulties of travel
ling from one State to another will Of course I've
multiplied, and the freedom of transit will be
greatly impeded. There cannot be lees than ten
or fifteen thousand Americans OF present travel
ling 10 Europe, and with the increase Of steam
ships on the various lines, and the approach Of
the travelling season both combined, that mum
Der will be vastly augmented during the coming
summer. Should the complications and troubles
of European war necessitate hasty retreat Of
our citizens, the ocean will be studded with
steamships, bringing the disappointed wanderers
back 10 our shores; go that interoceanic com
munication may possibly be greater than ever
and the Atlantic steamship business be very DC
tive, at least for time.

Cape Gracias and at the Gulf of Dulce-have all
been miserable failures. Yet they all had counts
and viscounts, and dukes, and the Lord knows
what other dignitaries, attached to them, and,
withal, like Belly's expedition, or Spanish
American army, more officers than men Yet
they failed. Titles couldn't save them.
The hypothesis, therefore, that Belly or his
hackers, whoever they may be, are acting
in this matter in good faith as a commercial
enterprise, is inadmissible. The proposed work.
impracticable in the best of hands, becomes
simply absurd in such as theirs. We are
therefore compelled to believe, if there be any
thing at all in the accounts Of Belly and his
movements beyond the rhetoric of an excited
Gaul, that be is the stalking horse of other de-
signs-an instrument for the accomplishment Of
purposes not yet avowed, and put forward, as We
have before suggested, TO create complications
and pretexts for French Intervention in part of
this continent where American interests are
paramount, and where American influence should
prevail. This conclusion is not supported alone
by the course Of reasoning which we have pur-
sued, but by evidence of direct and positive
kind.

Icheering smiles and an inscription in flaming
capitals above their heads, ",celcome thrice
xetconte to our homes and to our hearts"
An admirable corps of officers was elected
Tor the ensuing year, a strong representation
to the National Division and a delegation of
fire distinguished Sons was appointed by the
=, W. p, to pay a fraternal visit to the
Grand Divisions of North and South Caro-
lima, all of whom we understand expressed q
determination to attend, as soon as the APP
pointment was announced.
The percentage of this Grand Division
was also increased from 8 to ten cents per
member quarterly, and the entire machinery
OF the Order in the Old Dominion is now be-
hcyed to be in first rate working condition.
Indeed, we doubt if there is a single Grand
Division, in North America, that surpasses
Virginia in any respect.
Modesty is an innate Characteristic of our
beloved M. w. Patriarch, and had it not been
for other sources of information, we should
never have known from his account of his Wis
It to the G. ID. of Virginia, that he made a
speech there. But the Virginia Conductor
tells on him, in the following language:
cat night the Grand Division marched in
procession to the Methodist church, to listen
to an address from M. w. p. Townsend, in
tended especially for the information and en-
ightenment of the Sons as to the workings of
our noble Order from its foundation to the
present period. In reference to this address,
We nave heard but one opinion, and that is
that it contained most valuable information,
prepared with great care, and is an ~irrefuta-
bic argument in defence of our organization,
as the most efficient agency for the promotion
OF the cause Of Temperance ever presented to
the consideration of the public. We should
love to see this very able production of Ma.
jor Townsend's in the hands of every right
thinking individual in our land, believing that
wherever it is read, it will carry conviction
right into the heart. A resolution was man
imously passed, asking a copy for publication
and VIC trust ere long to have the pleasure o.
laying this very able document before the
readers of the Conductor"
We have no doubt we shall have just a.
good q speech from him in Raleigh, at GU
Grand Division.

All teachers, / presume, have at some time

in their pupils.
have under my instruction a young lad
of fifteen, whose difficulty in enunciation, and
its peculiarities, form the subject of the pres
ent communication. He is large of his age
robust and healthy, and has excellent quail
ties, affable in manners, and even in temper
ament. During his hours of recitation he Ia
bors with extreme difficulty of utterance.-
A nervous excitement prevails, his face flush
es, his nerves and muscles are subjec: to sud-
den contractions and irregularities, while
large drops of sweat will form and trickle
down his face. The action of the CLOTHS, it
seems, is governed by the mind. While in
conversation his utterance is no apparent diff
fculty to him, except he is relating something
excitable; but what is still more remarkable
when angry, his voice is clear and regular,
there being no impeachment whatever.
