AGRICULTURAL SHOW.The show of Saturday last was a capital one under

the circumstafnces. Every one was delighted w'iththe harmonious and cheerful manner in which the daywent off. The universal remark was-" well this is a

good one, but next year we must have a great one."And so let us du. By beginning in time, each one can

be able to contribute handsomely in October next. Ifwe have done so well without trying, what may we

nct do with proper exertion.

THE CIRCUS.It will be lacre to-day, and a grand affair it is said

to be. Old RoaIEaTsoN hasquitthe concern, ELDIEDnow owns the whole establishment. It will be none

the worse for this. Revolutions are always healthfuland improving with shows, however dangerous theymay be with governments. And, independent of all

suppositions, we have heard that ELDRED'S Circus isa great Circus. Of course, everybody will be there.We already hear that splendid Band as they make theGrand Entree. Turn out, turn out!

L'P The well-prepared article from ADREw H.H1. DAwsoN, Esq., of Savannah, written by him forthe Louisville Journal, in the defence of the Hon. P.S. BaooKs, in the SUMtNER affitir, has been receivedby us with the request that we will publish, which wewill take pleasure in laying before our readers at an

early date, as we know it will prove highly interestingand acceptable to them.

OUR COURT AGAIN.In a short note addressed to us by his Honor Judga

O'NEALL, the following allusion is made to our lateCourt: " Much of my success in clearing your dock-ets and closing your Court is attributable to the active

co-operation of the Bar. I have never done more

business in the same time, and never did it more

pleasantly."FINE WEATHER.

The finest autumn weather is upon us, conl, clearand bracing. The health of the people is good andtheir spirits high. Oh, how grateful we ought to befor the blessings of the hour!

THE PLAY : THE PLAY!Friday night a week is the time of our next Dra-

matic Performance. The bill will be in the next pa-

per. It is a full and a reh one. A Highland Fliag,by Mr. BGGS, will be one of the features of the eve-

ning. It will of itself be worth the price of admis-sion. Several songs will be introduced as part of the

plays. The Angusta string hand will be here also.

And, all together, it will be a rare evening.

LALLERSTETT & DEMIING.We invite the particular attention of our readers

to the advertisemenit of the above Merchants, of Au-

gusta, Ga. They have on hand amn extensive andwell selected variety of Dry Goods suitable for Falland Winter wear. When you go down, dont fail to

THE GOLD MINES.A friend writing to us from DoaN's Gold Mine,

kindly furnishes us with the following intelligence in

relation to the richness and constanatly increasing valueof these mines. Read it:The gold mining interest in thmis neighmborhood has

already become a most important source of wealth to

our State, and may yet become of vast conhoguence.The fanmous Dorni Mine, so immensely productive a

-few yearsago, is again producIng very rich ore in large

lanne frty feet ,wawr level. The fact that time,ein cotiriues liat water level' and increases inm rmchm-nmess and regularity as the mimnes descenad, is looked up-on by all experienced miner. and geologists in this re-

giot as proving its pyyiwefet continuance and iuincasing richmnes. W hope to see our1!iate contributinglargely to the inacrease of this, best of all currency-Americana gold.

THE Kansas ELEcTIoN.-The Uniton leatrrsfrom a gentleman who was in Kansas at tireelection, arid who reached Washington on Moti-dary, that lihe elections went off quietly, rind thatGovernor Geary had made every necessary ar-ragement to secure to every voter tire unmo-lested exerciee of this privilege. Tire anti-sla-very votEli, however, declined to avail- them-selves of thecir rights, and allowed their oppo-nents to carry the electron withfout a contest.General Whritefield was voted for Congress bythe pro.slavery party and is elected.

HON. P. S. BROOS AT aWnERRY.Our town (savs the Newberry Mirror) was

cheered on Friday by a visit from our distin-guished Representative. -We are pleased tofind him looking so fine after trying scenes ofthe past summer. No representative was ever

more loved than Colonel Brooks. Being loudlycalled for, at night, lie appeared and addressedthe assembly on the political prospects of theday. Though we once differed with Col. Brooks,we cnn subscribe to the sentiments expressedon Friday night. The following is a meagreoutline of his remarks. During the address hewas frequently interrupted by the cheers of thelarge and intelligent assembly:

le remnaiked that although he had not entireconfidence in the Democratic Party upon manyquestionis of national policy, for instance thetariff and internal improvements, yet it was now

frighting our enemies on the question most vitalto us, and bravely battling for the constitution,and he should give a cordial support to Mr.Buchanan as the standard bearer of the party.He was so constrained:

ist. By nece.sity. -Mr. Fillmore was more

dangerous to the South than Fremont, becauselie was more moderate. Col. B. could not votefor Frewont for he was a traitor to every asso.iation of his youthkand no such man was to betrusted in anj relation of life. Freniont's in.heritance fron his parents was disgrace-hislegacy to his children will be infamy.

2d. The fate of the Northern Democrats whorelieved the South from the degradation of theMissouri Restrictive line was to be determinedby the success of tie Democratic party. If Buch.anan was defeated, such men as Pierce, Douglas,Toucy, &c., would be doomed to a politicaldeath which would know no resurrection. Grati-tude for pa-t services to these gentlemen alsoinfluenced him.

3d. The people of the South require that thislast experiment should be made, this last hopeexhausted of killing off freesoilism by the elee.tion of a Democrat, and it was our duty to testthe experiment as well as our policy, fur if itftils we might then reasonably ask our friendsto try our remedy.

It was wise to be prepared for any contingen-cy. Should Fremont be elected President theSouth would not submit. Something would bedone. What, he did not know, but it was the

revailing sentiment at the South that submis-sion would be ruin. Plans had been suggestedbut Col. B. had but little faith in Conventionsor Legislatures doing anything decisive or effee-tive. There was too much deliberation aboutdeliberative bodies for revolutionary tinies. Anovert act was wanted and the spirited youngpatriots of the South must open the ball bythrowing " tea overboard." Our people are al-ways prepared, but we musL await the movingof 'the water among those who are embarked in

tie satme voyage with ourselves and whose des-tiny is oure.
