night. He spoke very kindly of his friends,
the Republicans, and their candidate for the
Presidency. lie gave Mr.. Douglas credit for

The Legislature.

This body was engaged last week for the most
part in discussing two measures, namely, the bill
to provide an armed military force and the proprie
ty ofadjourning over to Charleston.
On Monday night the two Houses ratified the
bill to provide Board of Ordnance and Ordnance
Bureau, and bill TO provide an Armed Military
Force. This last measure is one of vast importance
and interest to this section and we regret that we
connot publish the act in this issue.
s Both Houses concurred in the resolution to ad-
journ on Monday evening to meet in Charleston on
to-day Thursday at 10 o'clock a. m. We trust
that the apprehension and dread experienced by
many members, who not disposed to risk the
small pox in Columbia, will now be quieted, and
that the business of the country will proceed with
out further interruption of that sort.

The Dying Year.

= The feeting moments of time-the drear, gloomy
weather-the whistling winds of December, re-
mind us that the year is fading, failing Pickering
and will soon be gone forever Gone ! with its joys
and sorrows griefs and happiness, felicity and
sadness Gone! leaving behind no visible trace
save the impress of great, momentous events which
have transpired in its calendar. Gone, aye, forev
er! The hopeful pilgrim on life's journey, whose
sky was cloudess and bright at the beginning, may
know only disappointment, sorrow and the pangs
of woe at the closing of the year. And the child of
grief, into whose heart no ray of cheerful sunlight
bcamed may now be wearing theineffabe smile of
the purest earthly JOY. Thus it is with life! Let
each one look inwardly and find that experience
confirms the exclamation. To many the lesson
drawn thence will be biter-to others, it will have
q sweet consolation. The Father of Mercies has
dispensed unto all that which will meet their wants
and operate for their everlasting good!
To our country-this asylum for the oppressed,
and refuge of civil and religious libcrty-the year
1860 has been one of the most mark ed and singular
which its history shall record of the present cen
tury. In the spring-time when hearts and minds
are usually bright and filled with JOY, clouds Of
portentous significance began to lower over our
land. Apolitical struggle ensued-its first cOnse-
ouence was the disseyerance and breaking up of
the only party which held in its grasp the constitu
ton and government of our fathers-its result
caused black pail to overspread the patriots hor-
izon and while the autumn leaves are falling, the
gloom thickcns, and in the general obscurity and
darkness which follows the last vestge of hope for
our country's salvation is swallowed up. The deed
is done, and the massive pillars of government tot
ter and fall to the ground.
But amid this gloom and midnight dark ness,
there beams forth radiant star-its pure rays are
seen, and they guide one section of this mighty
Republic from out the ruins of the temple. The
patriot fixes his gaze upon that star, and with an
exulting shout, wrests the palladium of liberty,
justice and equality from the deep abyss wherein
it was plunged, and places it once more in the
broad light of day. Henceforth, it will abide with
those who reverence the principles of '76, and who
have not forgotten the example of their heroic
fathers The days of go are linked with those
of Revolutionary memory.

Alabama and Mississippi.

The Commissioners from these States, accredited
to our State Convention, arrived in Columbia on
Friday last Hon. JOHN A. ELMoRE represents Ala
bama, and the Hon. C. E. HOOKER from Mississippi.
They have rightfully received warm welcome to
our State, and they come to urge action and not
delay in this crisis. They come, clothed with au-
thority, to the people of South Carolina that
their States are ready to unite their fortunes and
join hands with US, in seeking deliverance from the
bondage and enslavcment prepared by Northern
hords for Southern freemen. They do not, on the
other hand, come crouchng and pleading for an
independent sovereignty to stay her action that
this purified Union, which has become stencil
in the nostrls of all honest PATRIOTS may longer be
preserved and our equality sacrificed thereby. Then,
thrice welcome to the messengers from the gallant
Gulf States
We have no honeyed words to use in regard to
delegations or commissioners expected in Colum-
bin from moro Northern States, and whose design
is to urge delay and defeat action. AS gentlemen,
they should be treated respectfully; but we detest
proposal of compromise ssiiHaieethng over evils
and aggressions, or hcarkening to appeals of Uni
~
them.
1t is said that Virginia will send n commission
to our Convention, and besecch us TO wait for
time. For what To ultimately submit we fear.
Besides, when the soil of Virginia had been
ruthlcssly invaded and the blood of her citizens
drawn by midnight assassins, an intelligent and
accomplished gentleman was empowered by the
Legislature of this State to proceed at once to her
capital, and urge conference of the Southern
States upon the aggressions and manifold evils in
ficted upon us by the Northern people. How was
Mr. MEMMtSGEn received? Politely enough, it is
true, but Virginia declared that she was compc-
tent to take care of herself then and we would have
her answered in the same spirit now. She cannot
think for South Carolina, AMI her temporizing
and tame policy will not meet what the times de-
mand

The Charleston Mercury.

This staunch, reliable and able advocate of
Southern rights and independence comes to our
SANCTION daily and with the utmost regularity. We
feel under obligations for the exchange and beg to
express our thanks for the iberality shown. Those
who desire to sustain the best newspaper in the
South, should subscribe for the Meroey Its col
umns are always filed with the latest. most varied
and interesting intelligence while in its editorials
there is pre-cminent ability and high-oned South
ern sentiment.
We have heard that there were other journals
published in the Queen city-indccd, not many
months sincc we were in their Offices; but through
some cause or other, they ignore our existence
end tactly refuse TO acknowledge the usual courc-
sizes. Very well, Messieurs; we will strive te
weather the encouragement.

Enoourapine SIGNS from the Empire State.

We mean, of course, the Empire State of the
South, our twin-sister over the Savannah. On an
exchange, the other day, came the following su-
prescription from Georgia P Master: " For
South Carolina the good secession State. Keep
the ball moving-Gcorgia will soon be with you"
On opening the paper, the Louisville Journal met
our eyes, We dare say this endorsement is full
MS much disunion rs ever tho Journal came
freighted with, and PRENTICE will likely repudiate
the sentiment
On another exchange from Georgia, we find the
following: 'We are ready to go with South Car
olna" The editorials in this, however, sustain
the secession movement, and battle manfully for
resistance The Dalton Times is the journal, and
we extend it cordial wishes for success in the glo
rious struggle now being made in that region.
In addition to the above, we had an interesting
conversation, on Monday, with valued friend of
lang syne, who is fresh from the western country.
He gave hopeful and cheering intelligence from
Arkansas, and the intermediate States He is q
Georgian by birth, education and residence, and
knows the sentiment of his own section thorough
ly. In his county (Jackson) there are about
enough Union men to form corporaPs guard, and
in Clarke county, (the residence Of Hon. HOWELL
CoBB,) not one man can be paraded who will sub
mit-all are for prompt, immediate and separate
secession Add to what we have stated in the
foregoing that almost daily we hear identical re-
ports from upper counties in Georgia; that it is
morally certain the lower section has been ready
all the time, while middle Georgia is rapidly be-
coming secessonized, and there can no longer be
entertained doubt that resistance is meant by
the gallant, glorious and powerful people who re-
side across the blue Savannah, and that resistance
is to be made by the most efficient mcans-disun-
ion. Let the welkin ring with cheers for the En-
pirc State!

GOV. F. W. Pickeas.

The Legislature, on Friday last, elected the Hon.
F. W. PIcKENs, of Edgcfeld, Governor and Com
mander-in-C Chief of South Carolina for two years.
Although he was not our first choice, nor our Sec
ond for the responsible post to which he has been
elevated yet Gov. PIcKENs is man of considera-
bic ability, sound discretion and enlarged political
experience. He has been in public life for long
series of years, held high and important trusts,
and discharged their duties with fidelity and hon.
or to himself and his friends At this important
period of the States history, no higher compliment
to his fitness and capacity could be given than his
elevation to the Chief Nagistracy Of the indepen-
dent Republic of South Carolina. We trust that
he will administer the government with that pru-
dence, wisdom, frmness and enlightened policy
which is requisite ut this critical hour.
The inauguration of Gov. PIcKEHs took place
on Monday last.

A Word to our Friends.

Tho L,,e1l;oencer has been issued for several
months. md our friends have had the opportunity
of iudrnr MS to its merits. If our humble efforts
TO rive the public interesting journal have met
with approval ask that those disposed to sustain
us will continue their interest and manifest their
sanction of our course by bringing its claims to q
support before their neigLbors and friends. We
make no promises of great improvement, but will
continue to devote all the energies of our nature in
making the paper acceptable. If we succeed in
this, by adhcring to an Independent, untrammclled
position, we shall be more than gratifed And if
success only awaits us by trucking and playing the
base sycophant-in bending 'the pregnant hinges
of the knee that thrift may follow fawning," then
we shall never reach the goal of our ambition
After an experience of twelve years in the various
stages of newspaper life, We can appreciate the
difficulties that environ the pathway of Journalist
and steer clear somewhat of the quicksands and
shoals upon which thousands hare been wrecked
The most dangerous position, We conceive, is in
pursuing either too tame or too reckless course; ;
and while utering opinions with oil the clearness
and fearlessness we possess, shall never plunge
into needless extravaganza or impracticable folly.
We respectfully ask our friends who have ex-
tended SO hearty support already, and who have
assisted us in making the InteHgencer permanent
institution, to redouble their efforts, and send us
at least another each to enter upon our books with
the new year. The subscription price is but q
triAe and no one is so poverty stricken, even in
these hard times, that they cannot afford it.

Tbs southern Literary Messenger.

We have for several years urged upon the peo-
pie ofthis section the necessity of supporting
Southern journals and magazines, land frequently
referred to the Southern Literary Messenger as o.
magazine conducted with true Southern feelings,
and containing sound sentiment, besides being
richly worth the subscription price in all respects
Now that we are to leave Northern productions to
look for support elsewhere than from the South, it
is important that We should build up Southern en-
terprises, and sustain home energy, industry and
talent by every possible means. In no other sphere
can this spirit be exemplifed with such lasting
benefits in comparison to the outlay necessary,
than by supporting, sustaining and patronizing
the Southern press, which is mighty lever in de-
fence of our interests and institutions. The ne
cessty OF this will be recognized by every one,
and at this particular time we desire to impress
the fact upon the attention of our readers, The
Northern press, becoming impudent and inso-
lent after draining the Southern people for sup
port, have, with few exceptions, been engaged IN
this unceasing warfare upon our section, and has
done more to infame the popular mind against
slavery than any other influence. Are we yet TO
bow to their oppressive yoke, and submit to their
insulting words and base falschoods? No, thank
Heaven and the first step should be to discard
every newspaper or magazine published north of
Mason and Dixon's line; and then turning to our
section, subscribe the snme amount, or double the
price, to Southern publication. In few years,
by pursuing such course, Southern literature
will be enriched greatly and become cheaper, be-
cause the vehicles for its dissemination are not
left to exc out miserable sustenance, as has been
the experience of most enterprises heretofore.
To the end limited at in the foregoing, We take
peculiar pride and pleasure in recommending most
cordially and honestly the Southern Literary Mes
senger, published at Richmond, Va, at three dol
lars per annum, in advance. For several years
we have been an attentive and interested reader
of this magazine, and with the utmost truhfulness
we can over that 1t is second to published in
America in point of ability, interest and sound
reading. Free from the insane rawlings of fanati-
cal writer's its pages enriched with the productions
of the best Southern authors, either in romance,
essays or biographies, and printed in most admi-
rable style, the Messenger justly claims liberal
patronage from the Southern public. AS this is
the season for making or renewing subscriptions
to magazines, we earnestly hope that the merits of
this periodical may not be overlooked. For an in
dication of its opinions upon the rights of the
South and the remedy of secession, we refer the
reader to the article published on our fourth page
