PASSING AwAY-Departed this life
on Saturday, August 2lst, Mr.. Robert
Stewart, in the seventy-frst year of his
age. Mr.. Stewart was one of our OIL
dest and most successful merchants,
having been in business here for up
wards Of fifty years. He had a large
family of children, eleven, we believe,
all Of whom preceded him to the grave.
He leaves widow to mourn the sad
bereavement of her dearest earthly
friend. counsellor and companion. We
dare not obtrude, by the expression Of
any poor words of our own, upon the.
privacy of a grief SO crushing and un-
utterable. .-Newberry Herald.

Of a. singular case Of superstition:

the wonderful preservation and beauty

Lands.
Below we copy from a Richmond pa
per an interesting article on this sub
ject, which we hope will be attentively
read by landowners
We sometimes fear, and we have rea-
son to fear, that the scheme Of the men
now uppermost in tile counsels Of the
North is so to clog Southern industry
with such impediments and drawbacks
as to discourage and disgust those en-
gagged in it, and induce them to throw
their lands into market. The glut of
lands would be so great as to reduce
the pr ce to standard that would ena-
bic Northerners to pick and choose, and
purchase up the desirable estates in
every locality. The millions of unem-
ployed capital at the North could find
no more profitable investment. The
Investment of. paper money in cotton
lands would be almost tantamount to
its conversion into cotton, the equiva-
lent of gold, and without any loss Of
discount Such scheme, pertinacious-
ly adhered to, might result, in the course
Of a few short years, in an entire change
in the proprietorship of the soil. The
whole soil would be transferred to North,
ern hands, and cultivated by the negro
laborers now resident on it, who would
be hired by the new owners at a scale
of prices regulated by no competition,
and adjusted at the option Of the new
owners. These. new proprietors, thus
colonizing the South, would have all
the aid that friendly Congressional rcg-

aY- It is not pretty story, nor OF
good augury for the future Of our par
ticular friend and ally" Russia, whieh
comes to us concerning the Cesarewitch
and German officer of his Imperial
Highness staff. The Prince, in discus
sing financial proposition, permitted
himself to say:
aWhen one deals with Germans one
is sure to be cheated" The officer, Col.
Hunius, German by birth, quietly re-
piled, "If your Highness means that
observation to apply to me, I must beg
youto withdrawit as it is both offensive
and unjust TO this the Prince made
answer by slapping the Colopel's face.
So gross an insult could neither be
avenged upon the heir to the throne,
nor endured by an honorable man. The
Colonel, after stating the facts to the
Emperor, sat down and wrote the Grand
Duke:
Your Imperial Highness has offered
me a mortal insult When you read
this letter 1 shall have ceased thve;
and having written this, he deliberate
" blew out his brains.
1t is only just to the Emperor, Alex
ander II, to say that he was profoundly
shocked by This sad affair; He gave
orders that the Colonel bo buried with
the greatest pomp, and the Grand Duke
having attempted to prevent these or
ders from being executed, the Emperor
further commanded his brutal son tc
