Commencement of the Williamson Fe-
5. male COLLEGE.

male l0llege.
The second annual commencement of this
promising and fourishing institution occurred
on last Wednesday and Thursday, 18th and
10th inst. It was certainly what the faculty
have been trying all the season to make it-a
success. The new building not being quite
finished, the dedication Of the Chapel was
postponed until some future time.
On Wednesday night, DR.. William Williams,
of the Southern Theological Seminary, deliv-
cred an eloquent and highly interesting sermon
before the Young Ladies' Christian Associa.
ton. At eleven o'clock Thursday morning,
Prof J. a. Carlisle, of Woford College, de-
livered sound and logical address on 'Truth"
to the young ladies of the Erosophic Society.
The speaker endeavored in plain and simple
words to impress upon them the evil of acting
as well as of telling an untruth-of pretending
to be very glad to see their friends when they
meet them, and very sorry to part with them,
when they really entertained feelings just the
opposite.
The closing concert and graduating exercises
took place on Thursday evening. The services
began with prayer by DR.. Meynardie at pre-
cisely o'clock, although the crowd continued
to pour in until late. Both the eyes and the
ears Of the spectators enjoyed splendid feast
for several hours in looking at the beautiful
young ladies, and listening at the equally sweet
music. We we're struck particularly by two
pieces-"Mollie Reeds Uncle" and the "Mon-
ument of Peace"-composed by the President
of the College, as being not only we'll gotten
up, but also we'll acted. We have never seen
better order and attention on such an occasion.
The concert closed with prayer by DR.. Mey-
marble, when the benediction having been pro-
nounced, he delivered a short and pointed ad-
dress, in which he set forth the claims, purpo-
ses and prospects of the institution, after
which several hundred dollars worth of stock
we're taken. Altogether, the commencement
was very auspicious one; and having visited
Due West and several other commandments,
I am prepared to say that it cannot be exceled
in the upper portion of this State.

Brino Back the South carol1nians.

brlUq pdtk tQo oUtttH rSok onAnoAs.
Tt is we'll known fact that the natives OF
South Cafeliua, scattered far and wide from
| the Savannah River to,the Rio Grande, never
lose their identity, and always claim the proud
title of South Carelinlan As a;badge of honor.
Other States are forgotten by their sons, amid
new scenes and fresh surroundings, and there
Is no desire to revisit the home of earlier years.
But with the South Carolsrfans, living in a
distant land, the is different, and there is
longing for the homes of their fathers. Col.
D: Wyatt Aiken, who has travelled much over
the Southwest since the war; says that he has
never met a native Carolinian that was not
desiroas Of being domiciled once more in his
native State. Some are not disposed to &C.
knowledge this desire in so many words, who
are pecuniarily able to crafty their inmost
wishes. But the large majority are kept from
utilizing this idea by sheer necessity Others
are unable to re-appear among their former
neighbors, and assume their old status as we'll
doing citizens, because their substance has been
wasted to some extent, and false pride prevents
them from turning back to the home of their
more youthful and prosperous days. Some OF
these considerations are keeping away hundreds
of citizens, who would prefer to live in South
Carolina, even though down-trodden and op-
pressed.
Now, why not make an effort to bring back
q portion of those who left the old State, and
have been disappointed at the result of their
endeavors to find better home? Every in
ducement is held out to our citizens, tempting
them to forsake the land of their ancestors, but
there is no corresponding effort to avert the
consequences of the emigration which has beer
steadily depopulatipg the State for so many
years. The railroads are employed to people
the Southwest, by securing low rates to emf"
grants, and we should make use of the same
means to induce return of the hundreds and
thousands of citizens, whose dreams of'pros-
perity and happiness are not realized, and who
are desirous of getting back to the mother
State 1t appears entirely practicable to Sc
care similar arrangement with the railroads,
by which persons in other States might pur'
chase emigrant tickets to- South Carolina, such
as are. now offered to those of our citizens
wishing to emigrate in the opposite direction.
Then why not inaugurate the movement at
once and afford an equal opportunity for re-
peopling the State, instead of tamely submit
ting to the discrimination against our best in
'terests7 Having secured the advantage of
emigrant rates, and placing within the reach
of our friends the golden opportunity, the tide
must inevitably recede, if the reports are true
that South Carolinians, as general rule, are
dissatisfied in their adopted homes. Let it be
known and urged that cordial welcome awaits
them here, and helping hand be extended
whenever necessary to friends and Kindred A
general movement in this direction will accom-
plish wonders, and the dawn of political and
industrial redemption will speedily appear:

Spain, in five years, has lost $4,000 men in

than give the Southern States independence,

OFFICE OF THE DEPUTY GRAND HIaH)
PRIEST, CHARLESTON, S. c., 18th !
NOVEMBER, A. I. 2403.

TO the High Priests and Companions of the
Subordinate Chapters in this Jurisdiction:
CoMPANIoNs-It becomes my sad duty to
announce to you the death of the Grand High
Priest of South Carolina. James Birnie died
at his home in Greenville, on the 18th instant,
from an attack of diptheria, of but three days
duration so suddenly was he called upon to
enter within the veil, and to present his life
work for the inspection and approval of the
Great Overseer.
1t is neither the time nor the occasion to
enter into any heightened notice of our brother.
The stroke is yet too severe the shadow too
dark. But all whose good fortune it was to
know him in his private life as man, in his
public life as Mason who have watched his
course in Capitular Masonry, as he stood
among us, filling one arduous and important
position after another, and filling them all
with credit to himself and with the greatest
honor and benefit to the Craft, can feel and
realize how the Chapter Masons of South Car
olipa will reel under the blow which deprives
them of their head.
A more extended tribute to his worth will
doubtless be paid hereafter by the Grand Chap
ter of South Carolina. But to do present
honor to his memory, it is ordered that the
jewels and working tools of the Craft in this
jurisdiction be draped with mourning for the
space of ninety days, and that in the minute
book of each subordinate chapter blank page
be inscribed with his name.
In heartfelt sympathy, I am INTERNALLY
yours,
AUGUSTINE T. SMYTHg,
Deputy Grand High Priest of South Carolina.

Dear Brethren-It becomes nv sad dutv IN
announce to the Craft of this jurisdiction the
death Of Right Worshipful Brother James
Birnie, Junior grand warden, which took place
at Greenville, Nov. 11th inst
By this awful dispensation of the Allwi,e
Architect, our temple is again shrouded in
mourning. Ours is no common loss. Courte.
GUS in his manner, loyal in his friendships,
earnest in his duty; gifted with mind not
only clear and penetrating, but capable of sus-
tanned thought and action, and with walk
and conversation of unblemished purity, our
brother gave tone to the circle in which he
moved, and to the craft the promise of bril-.
liant career. But the bow which spanned our
heavens has withdrawn its light, and we sit in
darkness, illumined only by the "Star in tho
East" 1t is my order that our altars through
out the entire State be draped with mourning
for the space of sixty days, in token of our
fraternal regards.

COLUMBIA, November O.
On Tuesday next the regular session of the
General Assembly will convene. The extra
session may be considered as over, and a re-
view of its action is in order. 1t has cost the
State at least S125, 900. What consideration
has been given for itH There is none that I
can see, unless it be the repeal of the law au-
thorizing the comptroller general to give notice
of the rate percentum of taxation to the county
auditors, and the consequent defeat of the
This was done within three days after the meet
ing of The extra session, and the balance of the
time consumed has been simply an expense to
the State without any benefit whatever. AS
to adjusting the bonded debt of the State the
General Assembly is as far from it now as it
was on the first day of the session. The forty
percentur scaling bill will probably become an
act, and it is about the best and the only thing
that the present General Assembly can do to-
wards settling the troubled debt question.
The interest in the gubernatorial election of
next fall is being increased from day to day.
The question is, shall Frank Moses be repomi-
mated by the Republicans or not? There are
great many, very great many, and very in
Auential Republicans, who are opposed to
Moses, and the preponderance of opinion is
that he cannot secure the next nomination.
He has lost his main friends in the party. Pat
terson and Worthington, who were amongst
his chief supporters last year, have deserted
him. R. B. Elliott, too, who did more, per-
haps, than any one else to secure Moses nomi-
nation in the last convention, is now bitterly
opposed to him, and it is difficult to sec where
Moses strength is to come from outside of
himself There is not leading Republican

The only really antagonistic speech was
