2EM1G RAT1oS.-Since emancipation, it has
been the object of every well>wisher Of the
country to secure white labor in place OF the
present freed labor in our midst. 1t is still
important that it shall be effected. But, be-
fore we can have emigrants from abroad, it
is Of no small moment that the present
white population shall remain. The failure
Of the crops will cause many to emigrate to
the West. So, therefore, instead Of increas-
ing our population by emigration we are
likely to lose from the same cause, 1t is OF
the utmost Importance, therefore, that the
Legislature, soon to convene sb"H devise
ways and means to prevent the noleSale
emigration with which the State is threatens
ed. This can only be done, in our opinion,
by throwing into orr borders, from the west,
the surplus grain Of that prolific section, at
cost and expences. This may enable US to
live for an other year. The occasion imper'
atively demands that ,~nething may be
done for the relief of the sufferers by drought.

In our notice of the Tranquil meeting last
week we inadvertently neglected to mention
among the names Of ministers officiating
that of our particular friend, the Rev. j. N.
Hawkins, (Lutheran,) we regret this the
more that it looked one sided in only noticing
those of the Methodist church, when the
meeting was a union of Lutheran, Baptist
and Methodist. The meeting closed on
Monday 9th, with accessions to each branch
Of the church.

LOCAL ITEMS.

It was our happy pleasure on Sunday last
to listen to one of the most beautiful, touch
ing, simple etforcible sermons that we have
heard in a long period Of time. 1t was from
that eloquent christian gentleman, the Rev
Colin Murchison, of the Methodist confer
euce. The audience was respectfully large,
and during the discourse unusually attentive.
Manv points in this admirable discourse were
SO touchingly affecting, and sublime, that
eyes whitherto unused to softened influence
were melted to tears.
1Ir. Murchison, as the general agent in so~
licitine aid for the rebuilding of the Washs
ington street Methodist Church and Sunday
School room, Columbia, which was destroyed
by fire eightee1 r" ,nths ago, is now traVell>
ing over the Conference bounds for this pur>
pose. and after the sermon, in brief manner
drew picture of the desolation Of that city,
and the poverty and distress of that large
CONGREGATION, who have for eighteen months
had no place of worship. A collection was
made but to what amount we have not
learned. We hope that it will not end here,
but that Others hearing of this will contribs
ute a little towards this great christian
charity.

Artistic-Dr. C. H. Kingsmore's Gallery

We were recently well repaid by visit to the
painting gallery of this accomplished artist, and
among many elegant portraits: recognized that
ofloveIy little Ranny Ruff, who moved in ''life
and light and beauty" few feeting months
ago, The exquisite life-likeness of the picture
held us in mute admiration. In shading, SYM
metry. perspective and relief, it would be recogS
nized by the critica in fine arts as the work OF
master. AS we viewed the portrait OF this loVeiy
child-the sweet white brow ard face, the lus-
trous eye, and dark, silken hair, and pretty
shapely arm, apparently in relief from the body'
ms5e rs for the moment almost feel that we Wele
IN the nresence of life, and iuVoluntarlly exc
nected some gentle utterance from little lips
which in life we're wont to syllable forth sucn
wondrous express ions of love, and faith IN the
Infinite. ,,,
There was another lovely portrait OF little
son of DR.. Phillips, of Laurens, which was pant
ed from a sketch of the corpse, and said to De
perfect IN form and feature.
DR.. Kingsmores thorough knowledge OF ana
tomy is doubtless of great advantage to him as
an artist.
Tne DR.. colors photographs on paper or por'
eelain, beautifully, and indeed can execute any
description of painting in the highest style OF
the art. We commend him as one worthy OF
liberal patronage.

The friends of Mat. Bythewood ill be
distressed to learn that he was robbed on
Monday last, while ''crying'' his goods.
The weather being excessively warm, and
having to stand in the sun, friend plying
his condition placed in his hat-not brick
but piece of wet sponge, to drive the heat
off through some other channel, and keep off
sun stroke. His enjoyment was not long;
for lifting his hat to reply that "he'd take
nothing short of ten cent bid,'' some
adroit ''dry sponge" slipped the wet sponge
from its capillary Judgement and left him to
'tcry" as best he might without it. Misera-
BILE thief; unfortunate Bythewood. We have
heard of men who were mean enough to steal
coppers from defunct dackie's eyes, but
never of one who could descend to rob a
poor auctioneer, just ready to expire from a
