The following particulars Of singular
disaster that occurred during the late gale,
on the ice between Albany and Troy, are
related by the Albany Express: /.
A lady attempted to cross the river on
the ice the nor'wester drove her from her
rough path on to the glare ice; her ample
crinoline serving rs main sails, top sails,
mizzen sails, and all sorts Of sails. On she
sailed, at the rate Of several knots an hour,
when all Of sudden her lower spars gave
way, and down went the whole craft in a
promiscuous heap Of hull and rigging. Yet
the mcrclless gale forced her forward, in
her wrecked condition, with no alternative
from future injury, than to haul up and re-
pair damages She righted up. and again
capsized again and again she rose, and
again she went over at last she cast an

despair, to freeze to death! At that mo-

benevolent gentleman, who took her IN tow,
and piloted the pretty craft safe'y into port.
Several other erinoline craft had asroush
time Of il, but saved themselves by taking in

We, the undsrsigned, : part Of your

the ..Ground Hog" from coming out Of his

AURORA BoREAL1s-ALARM OF FIRE
A few minutes past eleven o'clock last
night, the Orphan House Alarm Bell toll
ed an alarm of fire, which, as usual, caused
the instantaneous turn out of the Fire De-
partment. The alarm was caused by a
most brilliant display of the Northern
Lights, which, notwithstanding the light
of the moon, cast such brilliant red glare
over the northern hemisphere, as to de-
ceive the practised eye ofmany fireman
Some of the engines proceeded as far up
as Line street, when the apparent fire
seemed as far off as when they sartcd, and
the chase was given up.
The phenomenen, for few minutes
when the alarm was given-was really
beautiful, and was well calculated to de-

Newbcrry District being one of the richest Cotton
Districts in South Carolina, her people are large
consumers of every kind of merchandise. The
CONSERY ATlST, therefore, furnishes one of the
best mediums in the State for advertisers, SO far as
Newberry District is concerned, while it enjoys n
fair circulation in the surrounding Districts. The
terms for inserting advertisements are certainly as
reasonable as those of any other journal in the
country, especially when it is desired to advertise
by contract.

ributors gentlcnen o tho first talent and soundest
political Faith. With their assistance, the editor
will cndeaeor 10 make his journal an acceptable
and syc, welcome family newspaper and fre-side
compa:,ion.
Tie political character of the paper is of the
strongest States Rights stamp Believing that the
Constitution under which the Confederacy of the
American States was formed, has been repeatedly
and grossly violated, and that "the Plantation
States" have been the only suferers-that the
Union of these States is no longer policy founded
on the principles Of right and justice. but that the
bond Of Union is .sthe cohesive power of public
plumber the propretors prefer that their journal
Shall rather seem 10 be Southern Extremist than
appear an unconditional advocate Of the Union at
any price.
TERMS.-The paper will be regularly mailed to
subscribers out of the town of Newberry at the fol-
lowing reasonable rates of subscription:

fcrcnt course.

TRADE OF CHARLEsToN.-Wc are graft
fed to learn of the success of direct impor-
tations in Charleston. The -Nercary of
yesterday says:
IN passing through Hayne arG Meeting
streets recently, our attention has been
directed to the immense number of bales,
cases and casks Of merchandise of direct
importation. Our merchants really seem
to be in earnest, and, from conversations,
we find that our importers have been en-
abled to lay their stocks down at prices
much below what they have been i'll the
habit Of paying Northern houses for the
same class OF goods. They can now COM
pete with other markets, and we trust the
interior trade will continue to patronize
their own people instead of enriching Nor
thern fanatics, who really have no sympa-
thy for us or our institutions.
The fall trade has opened very brislly,
and merchants who have visited our city
are much pleased with the stock of goods
exhibited othem. If the direct importers
are to be encouraged, and they certainly
should be, our neighbors of Georgia, Ala
bama and Tennessee should help to grease
the wheels. We are sure none willrcgre-
q visit to Charleston.

SERIOUS AFFRAY.-We learn from the
Greenville correspondence of the Charles
tou Mercury, that difficulty occurred at
the Furman University on Saturday last,
between two of the Students, Mcssrs. Da-
vant and Scaifc. Revolvcrs were drawn,
and Mr.. Davants snapped several times
without going Off Mr.. Scaife fired three
times, one ball grazing Mr.. Davant's alb
domcn, the other lodging in the left breast
near the shoulder. The wound is not con-
siaercd dangerous, though the ball hasnot
been found.
