no MALTA office would be conferred on this
gentleman (pointing to Mr.. Brownlow) lie
had better preach. He regretted that he had
been diverted from words of peace through
interruption. He called it IN interruption. He
called it an interruption but in one sense, and
that not an offensive one. lie thanked the
people for their kindness and courtesy. lie
also thanked the Bell men who were gentle
men, and those not gentlemen. He knew the
power of the Press, the base ISLANDERS it had
uttered against him, and between now and the
end Of the canvass they would still 60 where
his voice could NOT reach Their lies were like

The Con"onqht was built at cost Of $780,

on Sunday morning, the steamer suddenly
sprung a leak, by which the fires were very

was discovered between decks. The devourng
element spread with rapiditys tthat bafied all
efforts to keep it in check, and~the passengers
were soon S8rccd to take to the boats. Nothing,

From Ssmns new rolu,ne of POEMS soon to be t'ssed
from tie Press
YE SONS OF CAROLINA.

Ye sons Of Carolina,
Our Eutaw flag that bear,
And glory in glorious name,
That knows not shame or fear;
The sacred trophy that ye keep,
;. The matchless names ye own,
Still need that your deed
Shall not shame the triumphs known:
Shall not shrink from battles raging fires,
Shsll not shame the triumphs known.
The Memories Of battle
Should be living in your souls,
While the crimson plains Of Eutaw rise,
And the stream of Ashley rolls;
On shores where gallant Moultrie fought,
Your hearts shall gather fame,
Which shall light, through the fight,
Toas proud and pure as fame;
Though the storm Of battle RACES wild,
Which shall light yo still TO fame
Your souls shall need no succor,
Though the tempest RACES FAST
While ye prize. the mighty memories
3 That have famous made the past:
While ye think of Marions rifles,
And of Sumter's cleaning blade,
And the name, and the fame,
In your Eutaw flag displayed:
ofthe proud and matchless name ye bear,
And his banner still displayed.
That banner still shall triumph,
In tho troublous storm at land,
And ye shall joy, beneath its folds,
TO light each meteor brand;
WlM then shall rise, ye warriors,
- Your shouts above the blast
As ye claim, for each name,
A brave triumph like the past;
As ye wave your Eutaw banner high,
In q triumph like the past.

A fearful rumor is rife nere this morning, to
the effect that the iron steamship GO"nauq'i,
one of the new vessels of the Galway line, was
burned at sea, last Saturday, during her passage
from St. Johns to New York. \ portion Of
the crew and passengers had been saved by a
brig and brought into Scituate, port in
Massachusetts,, about seventeen miles south of
Boston.
The Connn~ghi sailed from Galway OH the
25th uIt, and touched at St. Johns OH the Sd

BY telegraph, the more important features of
her advIccs.

noble steamer, which is believed to have con-
taincd large number Of American passcn'
