A Parting Word with the htelligencor

We cannot forbcar a parting wore
with our friend of the IntelEyenrer
though there be nothing of new mat
ter in his brief reply te' call forth q
rejoinder. Its tone will scarcely jus
tify the commendation which ve be.
slowed on the courtesy and good tenn
per of the first article, and our friend
for once, seems to have forgotten that
dogmatism is not argument, and that
epithcts weaken rather than add
force to reasoning.
The pith Of the controversy be.
tween US, and indeed all that could
Justify a discussion at all, WAS the
question of the comparative merits of
the AbbeviIe and Anderson markets,
and hence we cannot see how an
abandonment of tho main issue can
he inferred from our disclaimer of
any imputation upon the honesty of
the Anderson merchant. IF there be
any ",hrowing up of the sponge"
there is none certainly on the only
material point of tho controversy.
But the IntrH;gencer thinks our ex-
PLANTATION of the delay in noticing
"Long Canes" communication is
"'ame and impotcnt." Others may
think differently and We will not
handy epithcts with cur friend. Our
statement speaks for itself, and we do
not know that we can now add any
thing to its force.-Me cannot Y
what. our friend of the Mtslligeneer
contemplated" but we know that he
gave currency to on article which
charged that it was Shame and
scandal" that Abbcville farmers
were forced to seek o market else
where, and vouchcd too for the truth
Of the facts upon which the charge
was predicated.
And here let Ms correct q misappre.
hension of the Intelligenc'r, which is
so patent, that it is singular that it
should have occurred. We did not
suppose for a moment, rs he alleges,
that he meant to reflect npcn the Alb.
berille planter for seeking the Ander.
son market. 1t is the part Of true
wisdom to sell in the highest market,
and buy in the lowest, and if Ander'
son can make good its claims in these
particulars, the shame and scandal
lies at the door Of the Abbcville mer.
chant alone. And this is what "Lone
Cane" meant to charge. =.
As to the main issue, we have nc
new facts to present, and rather than
recapitulate e a"twiee told tale" beg
leave to dismiss the subject.

Oun NEXT JuDaE.-By letter re-
ceived from Senator Hollinshead, we
learn, that the friends of General
MCGOWAN are actively canvassing his
claims for the Judgeship Of this Cir
cult. made vacant by the appointment
of Judge Orr. as minister to Russia.
Mr.. II. says that there is no difficulty
in getting votes for the General, and
that we may rely upon him as the
next Judge of this Circuit. General
MCGOWAN is an able aud profound law
yer, and would reflect credit on the
position. His election would be very
acceptable 10 our whole people.
