EpiscopaI Fair and Supper.


L; j. subject of much cougratulntion that the
great csuse of Religion is not being neglected in
our midst. For the worthy purpose Of renora-
ting and repairing the interior of their Church,
tho Ladies of the Epi' cOpal Congregation are in
progress Of getting up Fair and Supper. This
Entertainment they design holding in the Masonic
Hall on Friday night, the 18th inst.
They respectfully express tho hope that all the
Congregations, and tho public generally, will join
in assisting thom to the attainment of The very
laudable end they have in view.
In Mi such cases, whether the effort in hand be
on the part of Baptist, Methodist or Episcopalian,
VIC would humbly suggest to Christians and lovers
of the cause Of Christ that they forget not that
most living fact of Gods great go'pel-the fact
Christ came to illustrate and impress" For all

Meeting in Richmond.

The Wig gives an account Of large
meeting of white and colored people, at the
Theatre, in that city on Mouday night. r..
T. n,niel, Esq, CommonSealth's Attorney
Of the city of Richmond, and o"e Of the
ablest of the old Whig party Of tic State, wa !
introduced by Solen Robinson, colored, in a
very appropriate speech, and delivered most
timely aud sensible address to the colored
people. He defined their new interests and
relations, and explained tile motives of those
adveaturers, many ofwhoq come from States
where the blacks cannot vste, to array the
races in hostility, and -counselled them, in
words of true wisdom, not to forfeit the friend
ship of their old masters. He warned them
against secret societies, and against the dclu.
sive promises that the lands of the South
would be confscated and given to- them. If
conliscation came, it would be for the benefit
Of the soldiers of the North.
Mr.. Daniel was followed by Messrs. Nc
Farland, MarGnaduke johnson, n. A. Sturdi
want, and Rev. Dir. Burrows, who made c1-
cellent speeches, which were well received
by the colored people.

IMPORTANT LEGAL CAsE.-The Columbia
Phoenin says: A bill has been filed by the
South Carolina Railroad Company to enjoin
the construction of the Columbia and Angus
Ia Railroad, ard is now pending before his
Honor Chancellor Carroll, in Columbia. The
injunction is asked, on the grounds that the
Columbia and Augusta Road is being con-
structcd in violation of the exclusive privi-
leges granted by the charter of the South
Carolina Railroad. Without expressing any
opinion on the merits Of the question involved,
it seems a monS;rous proposition that this ap
pication should be mads at this late day,
after the States of South Uarolina and Geor-
gia, the cities Of Columbia and Augusta, and
the citizens Of both States, who have SUBJ
scribed, have already been committed to the
enterprise, and after fully 100000 has been
expended or is involved in contracts. TKis
road is demanded by the necessities of the
times-it is needed to develope the great in
terest of the country-and we regret exceed
ingly that the South Carolina Railroad Com
pany have deemed it necessary to interpose
this hindrance to the progress Of the enter
prise, although, to.a certain extent, private
rights are involved.
The South Carolina Railroad Company is
represented By Gen. James Connor, Of
Charleston. and the Columbia aud Augusta
Railroad Company by Messrs. Arthur, Melton
& Melton, of Columbia. The argument was
to be concluded on Thursday.

LOniSiana.

The Pcayunc of the 2lst has strong edl
torial headed " Not to Register and Vote, is
to Vote Against the South The f'lowirs
will give an idea Of It's character F" lie law
osCongress will be etfectiee, no matter what
the Courts decide. The Supreme Court de-
cded test oaths &C post .tacio penalties, and
unconstitutional, yet Congress applied them
TO voters ms well as officers. The Supreme
Court decided Military Con missions uncon-
stitutional in time of peace, and then Coh'
cress ordered them to exist all over the South.
What a.:s will be raised to enforce rcspec
20 the judicial authority! The old men who
are upon the. bench of the Supreme Court
are as impotent to do more than sit In silence,
as were the Roman Senator'S in their cham
Der when the conquering bar5arlans entered
the old worlds capital.
THAT which our enemies wish is that we
sborld not vote. II they alone vote, as is the
case in Tennessee and Missouri, they will
make a constitution which will exclude nine
ty-nine on. Of every one hundred white men
in the State, and full of cunning devices to
enable them to keep out the young men Of
Southern attachments not yet OF age: oucn
a constitution will be gladly accepted by Con
cress, and its authority enforced. Under H.
HI the real estate Of the country Will be tax
ed out oil present hands, and suits be enter
taiued in its Courts, of which we can now
only have faint idea, which will utterly
ruin aud drive away all the present proprIe

views with prominent Southern men upon the
question of Mr.. Davis release from tue Fort.

Fort for several days prior to the departure of
Mrs. Davis, and went with her TO Washing
ton, to nss his influence. it is said: in the ef-
forts which are now being made to. have Mr..
Davis. released should he not be tried BY
Judge Underwood at the next session of the
District Court, which meets IN May. Mr..
Davis is in good health and spirits, and in
conversation with friends. has lately spoken
very confidently Of an early release from his
long confinement.
