WILLIAM MAXWELL MARTIN, son OF Will

He was Young man Of rare endowments. his

Tho Sunday School Convention.

This body met on Friday last in the Court
House. and afterwards adjourned to Che Baptist
Church in the evening. The proceedings Of the
day will be found elsewhere il to-day's paper.
There was small attendance of members.
The Rev. W. I. FARRow, whose labors in the
good cause have been abundanly rewarded in
this section the past two years, was present, and
in the evening delivered an interesting address
pertaining to the present condition of the Sunday
School cause in this State. lie mnutcly skctched
the formation of the South Carolina S. S. Union
since the Goth of December, 1860, by which action
tho prior connection of himself and others with
the American Union was severed We regret that
the members generally were not present to hear
him express the prosperous and hopeful signs Of
the future.
The Constitution under which the Convention
was organized eighteen months since was annulled,
and another Constitution adopted. There arc
several important changes made, which were
thought necessary. The Convention is now aux
iliary to the South Carolina Union instead of the
American, as heretofore and the regular meet
ings arc annual in place of semi-annual.
We trust that new zeal will be infused into the
members and all friendly to tic work in which it
is engaged

Southern Family Paper.

1t cannot be too, frequently urged upon our peo-
pie to support Southern publications-for years we
have insisted upon the trashy, sensation weeklics
of the North being discarded, and we fervently
hope that the time is at hand when this course will
be rigidly pursued. The annexed paragraph says
not one whit more than is true, and the Southern
people should, as one man, support and sustain
such journal as the Field and Fireside. Its excel
lencies are beyond question, each number being
worth scores like Bonner's great humbug, the
Ledger. Read the following:
THE SOUTHERN FIELD AND FIREs1DE will combine
the useful and agreeable. 1t will furnish the
Southern farmer useful information in every field
he cultiyates. and the Southern family choice liter
aurc-the offspring of Southern intellcct-worthy
of welcome at every firesidc. 1t will continue to
be, in all respects, first-class journal, on scale
of expenditure more liberal than has yet, prior to
its commencement, been attempted in the South,
and will rival in its merits the most distinguished
of the North.

tisement with the above heading, notifying mem
bcrs of the Convention from whom they might OBJ
tain the documents printed by order of that body.
For the publication we were to receive according

with the terms stated, We ask for information,
now that the Convention is again in session and
this may probably meet the eye of the Chairman

sSy- The Edgefcld 4drertiser of last week has
this fattering endorsement of our position in re-
gard to Fort Sumter:
GRACEFULLY DoNE.-The Anderson Hatelligeneer
has been an advocate of the policy of attacking
Fort Sumter. In their last issue the editors grace
fully indicate the course pursued by the authors,
Ties. This is the right spirit Whatever General
Beaurerard may now determine to doth course
pursued by South Carolina for the last two months
will not furnish the least important of her historic
pages. We shall confidently expect every paper
in the State which has complained in the premises
to act like the Intell,gencer and make the due
amendc to those who have borne the responsible
ties of this course.

THE New CoNsT1rur1oN.-The omission
in the Constitution to prohibit any mon
slaveholding State from being admitted
into the Union is the most Objectionable
feature in the whole proceeding; and it is
very grave question whether without
such an amendment South Carolina should
enter the Confederation. Ours should be
strictly slaveholding Confederacy, and
if, at any time, one of the States should
abolish slavery, she should ipso Jtacto, be
considered out of the Union. = Union0lHe

The Excitement here since his inaugural
was delivered has been intense. In fact,
hundreds boldly avow their intention to
enter the army of the Confederate States,
and aid their brethren if a conflict shall
ensue. We are told that a wealthy gen
