 ''As ever poor sinner was abroad in"
 Robert Collyer is my man. You
 will observe the orthography, of course Vincent the immortal spells
 his with one (h) ell. Then there is
 here, Robert Laird Collier-also
 " star preacher" But Robert is 1.-The Learned Blacksmith among the gos- pei peddlers, and I tell you candidly that he is one-man power worthy to call on. Last Sunday, he descanted on theatrical prayer "-as dealt in publicly, like it is by the Young Mems Christian Associations. I did not hear it, but judged from his ser sermon to-day on "prayer" straight, the Pharisees must have caught it under a forge hammer. And more power to him, say we of THE Crr1- zEN1. My Collyer believes in the act of "Jim Bludso" standing by the old steamboat till the last "galloot " got ashore, &c., as the most effective prayer. He believes that quinine for ague, fever, and the like ailings, more certain than gospel measures-said as much to-day. There is great tidal wave of the scientific sort sweeping round the moral or civilized world about these days, hence the proposi- ton of Prof. Tyndall to establish a " great prayer-guage" as final test of human supplication to Su- preme Power, as we'll as these scien- tiic sermons from almost all sorts of pulpits. Idon't know what the world is coming to, but one thing is certain, none of us get out of it alive, nor come back to tell us how 1t is our selves. Let her wag.
 If I could sell this or any other good Christian community a certain gold mine in California, 1 could then afford to be happy if not chaste. l guess the mining interest Is more Tn demand in New York now than for several years, and will go on and see about it. Chicago is dreadfully nortgaged, levied upon by mechanics, and all that sort of thing. w.

The General Assembly appears badly
demoralizad by The recent decision Of
the Supreno Court OF tho United States,
that the bills Of the Bank of the State
issued during the war are receivable for
taxes. It has cast y thick gloom over
the body. MIR. Hurley says that'if the
Treasurer has to receive these evidenses
of Indebtedness during the current year,
it will break down the present Govern
mont OF South Carolina. aud Rspubli-
canism will go to the wall Mr.. Bowley
thought the decision was direct stab at
the heart OF Republicanism. Mr.. J. D.
Boston said that he was like the rest
he did not know what to do. This de-
cision, added to the panic, high taxa
ton, and the struggle going on in the
State, had laid everything PROSTATE.
He also thought it q dagger struck into
the heart OF ths State Republican party.

lions to tue effect that the decision be

MAST, TIE CARICATUR1sr. Somebody
in New York calls for subscriptions for
testimonial to Thomas Mast. tho
former caricaturist of Harper's Weekly
The inference is. therefore, that those
who have used Mast for political and
social Generalization by his graphic and
merciless caricatures hive now dropped
bin. The proposer Of this scheme,
ho~evof, speaks Of Mast ns one who has
done so much for the cnuse OF liberty
that he should not be compelled to
wander over America like q Snowman,
and make speeches and draw pictures
on black boards for living to support
his family" Surely any man who could
have drawn such refined and delicate
caricatures of so wicked a man Us Ho.
race Greeley, who conld have so iocund-
~ toyed with blasphemy, as he did. and
who has labored so cheerfulIy aud as
siduously to keep ulive old sores aud
heartburnings, is deserving OF some
warm and heartfelt recognition at the
hands ofn grateful people.

MIR. VIM: Fl. Bailey, of Greenwood, ex-
ploded, communicating fire to the build

and was so fastened in by the falling
timbers that it was with great difficulty
that lie was rescued from the flames. 4
colored 1oman was badly burnt. The
wheat. corn and saw mills, together
with the cotton gin md press, and some
sixteen or eighteen ba!os uf cotton, wcro
burnt. and the loss is estimated at
$1,000. There was no insurance. The
cause assigned for the explos ion was the
forcing OF cold wnter into the heated
boiler, when the water was low.
