In regard to Governor Hampton's condi-
tion, the Columbia correspondent Of the Ne,cs
and Courier telegraphs the following, under
date of the 18th: 81 have been at great pains
to obtain the following authoritative and con-
elusive statement as to the Governors condi-
tion The Governors physicians do not con-
slider him 80 we'll to-day as there has been
slight fever, but, at present, they feel no alarm
about his case. He rested we'll last nig ght,
and expressed himself as feeling very COM
Portable to-day" ..a.
The tenth annual Fair of the State Ag-
ricultural and Mechanical Society of South
Carolina, was held in Columbia last week,
commencing on Tuesday, the 18th, and end
ing on Friday, the 18th. The attendance
was quite large and the exhibits more numer
Gus and superior to those on any similar oc'
casion since the war. In regard to the agri.
cultural department, the correspondent of the
Ne,os and Courier says: "The most promi-
uent feature of the present exhibition, as it is
likewise the most important and most desira.
BILE on all similar occasions, consists in the
excellence of the display of farm produce,
farming i'm plements and fine stock. In these
three several departments the showing that is
made for South Carolina would reflect credit
upon the agricultural interests aud enterprise
Of any State in the Union. 1t is seriously to
be questioned, indeed, whether finer specimens
of grain, fruits, vegetables, cane, corn, cotton,
hay, roots, &C., could be found in any other
representative collection of similar articles in
the cultivated world"

PAST HIS THREE.SCOEE AND TEN.
Our venerable friend and townsman, Col.
Wm. G. Beatty, celebrated his seventy'6fth
birthday yesterday. Thoug b past mans al

of his business with the same promptitude

Beatty and his esteemed lady celebrated their

many more years of usefulness in this life, is
the wish of their numerous friends.

THE DESERTED ROOM.
The fire flames leapt about the logs,

The fire flames leapt about the logs,
As in the days of old;
| About the silent room they played,
In chcquered work of CLEAN and shade
The Persian carpet on the floor,
Showed its dimmed beauty as of yore;
The portraits from the walls looked down
And eye aud lip in smile and frown,
The tale she taught them told.
The fire flame' leapt about the hearth;
The cricket sang its song;
The ivory notes she loved so much,
Lay waiting for her Weakening touch
Her own, or sister flowers dropped,
Where the great crimson curtain looped
And by her chair her favorite book
His place, mute pleading tor her, took
To rest, unopened long.
The fire flames leapt about the hearth;
A sense of something gone
Hung heavy ON the listening ear,
That used her joyous voice to hear;
The echoes of the silent house
1t seemed as ghosts her brightness laid,
In the dull stiffness woke and straycd.
And long-lost empire won.
The fire flames leapt, and paled;
And in the cerie gloom
Sad memories gathered round the hearth,
Where she brought joy, and youth, and
mirth;
Sad fancies mingling with them said
Old tales Of half-forgOtten dead;
And baifled prayers and visions met
With loss, and longing, and regret,
In the deserted ROOM

When newcomers begin to ASSUME
any extra airs our citizcfIs take
, them down and "initiaten them,
and "beatD a little discretion into
them and u little satisfaction out
OF them, aud give them another
trial. Ministers are no exceptions
to this rule. Catholic priests on
two occasions have experienced the
truth of this. One instance. was
of very recent occurrence. Some
thing about the fair or it's manage
ment in July last greatly displeased
Rev. Father J. Il. Tracy, of this
place, and he denounced the people
generally in a public manner, and
applied insOlent epithets to them,
without making any exceptions.
This broad insult was indigestiblo
to the Protestant part Of the COM
munity, and some very respectable
citizens let temper get the better
of discretion, and administered
quite a "thrashingn to the Rev.
Father in his own house By way of
initiation. The matter is referred
to the next term of the grand jury
for settlement. In conclusion We
would advise priests to attend the
functions of their high and holy
calling, and let us ordinary indi.
viduals scandal'ze each other, and
our friends, indiscreet, not to mi
tiate priest any more in his own
house. Please let me know what
you think of it. Respectfully, 3t,
We tkink it very indiscreet for
any one to let temper get the best
of them, and the idea of "thrash,
ing" a priest or other minister of
the gospel is very repugnant to our
feelings. Far better let the courts
decide such differences. We would
also state that there is no truth in
the rumor of yellow fever being
here.- ED. DEMOCRAT. STAR. .tf

way ho had of taking things TINT did not
helang to him had gained .hc reputation
of being n notorious thief, was arrested
on Tuesday last. by several colored men,
who had been the victims Of his roguery.
He had in his possession, when caught, a
shot gun and several articles of clothing
belonging to the parties who arrested
him. They at once gave him his choice
to be carried to Jail or take one hundred
lashes. He chose tho latter punishment.
We arc told by one Who witnessed the
whipping, that it was administered by
three stalwart negro men, who took turn
about. They peeled the skin from the
poor 1Fretch's back at every lick, he du-
ring the time crying and begging for
mercy. After the one hundred las1es he
agreed to take had been given him, he
was united and told by his colored "bred-

pain, his back literally raw from the
blows he had received, with no one to
sympathize with or befriend him, the
poor devil staggered Off down the road
