nod Wnw contrary to the rules ofgentleman- like duelling demands acknowledgenient fret Mr. C. that l'e is a gentleman: . It is said too that some words passed be. rween Cillcyand Wise in the debate on the Corruption case, and that these have ever sinco been tankling in the bosom of the latter. Upon the Whole, from all we can see, Mr. Wise has added to his other honors, tthe honor of having without the least excuse, caused the death of a high, minded, honora. ilo and useful citizen. This must be the verdict of the country. This melancholy alTair illustrates most forcibly the folly and unreasonableness of the whole system, and we trust will go far in establishing a sound and correct public opinion. "Unique" is received but unavoidably postponed until our next. Miscellancons. Froi the Chertstton Courier. SUMTEI(VILLE, Feb. 19. Messrs. Eddiorsi-Yot will confer a fa- vor on the slaveholding States generally, by inserting in your paper the following . advertisement of t wo felons who have fled from this district to escape the penalty of Negro stealing. There is abundant cvi- - d{ence positive and undoubted, that MINA und STEPill N McCOY are guilty of steaing as many as four Negroes, and it is thought more. Mina McCoy is about 36 or 37 years old, about five feet ten inches high, spare made, neighing about one hun- dred and forty pounds. his lell eye out, full white teeth in front, and shows thea mtch wiheni laughing or talking-his voice is stri- kingly nasal, hair dark. His brother Sic- phen is a little lower and thicker than Mina, but hears a family resemblance, dark hair and light eyes. It is thought they will stick together and endeavor to make their way to Texas, by taking shipping at George- town, Charleston, or Savannah, or take at first a Northern course into North Carolina, and then West through Tennessee across the Mississippi. It would be well to insert a reqest for all the papers in the slave- holding States to copy the above. A re- ward of $1000 is offered for their apyrehen. sion, or for the apprehension itof Mina Mc- Cog alone, so that he be brought to justice for negro stealing. The negroes lae all been recovered, and belong to lf. SpanR, and the Estate of T. L. Kennedy, of 'le tipper part of this District. Your's, JOHN WATSON, ELIJAll PRINGLE, JOHN D. IBOWEN, 31. C.

Correspondence of the Albany Argus FROM TILE FRONTIER. A outs, JEFFERSON Co. Feb. 19. The State Arsenal at Waterton was bro- ken open last evening, and Rome five hun- dred muskets taken out. Fairbanks, who is the keeper, has offered a reward of $2500 for the recovery of them. There begins to be some excitement here upon the subject of Canada. Many loads of men and provisions have been and are now passing fiere for the -North. Some of them have called at the dilferent stores for powder, and have bought all that was fur sale by the keg. Whether it will amount to any thing or not, we cannot dc- termiu, (The report is, that there is n considera- ble force on the frontier, in Jeflerson coun- ty, and that a descent upon Canada. at soe point is cotctmplated.

The btuilding adjoining, known as the old Bull's Ilead Tavern, was also burned. We understand the theatre was insured for 30,000 dollars.

It is said too that some words passed be.rween Cillcyand Wise in the debate on theCorruption case, and that these have eversinco been tankling in the bosom of thelatter.Upon the Whole, from all we can see, Mr.

Wise has added to his other honors, tthehonor of having without the least excuse,caused the death of a high, minded, honora.ilo and useful citizen. This must be theverdict of the country. This melancholyalTair illustrates most forcibly the folly andunreasonableness of the whole system, andwe trust will go far in establishing a soundand correct public opinion.

Messrs. Eddiorsi-Yot will confer a fa-vor on the slaveholding States generally,by inserting in your paper the following.advertisement of two felons who have fledfrom this district to escape the penalty ofNegro stealing. There is abundant cvi-

- d{ence positive and undoubted, that MINAund STEPill N McCOY are guilty ofsteaing as many as four Negroes, and it isthought more. Mina McCoy is about 36or 37 years old, about five feet ten incheshigh, spare made, neighing about one hun-dred and forty pounds. his lell eye out, fullwhite teeth in front, and shows thea mtchwiheni laughing or talking-his voice is stri-kingly nasal, hair dark. His brother Sic-phen is a little lower and thicker than Mina,but hears a family resemblance, dark hairand light eyes. It is thought they will sticktogether and endeavor to make their wayto Texas, by taking shipping at George-town, Charleston, or Savannah, or take atfirst a Northern course into North Carolina,and then West through Tennessee acrossthe Mississippi. It would be well to inserta reqest for all the papers in the slave-holding States to copy the above. A re-ward of $1000 is offered for their apyrehen.sion, or for the apprehensionitof Mina Mc-Cog alone, so that he be brought to justicefor negro stealing. The negroes lae allbeen recovered, and belong to lf. SpanR,and the Estate of T. L. Kennedy, of 'letipper part of this District.Your's, JOHN WATSON,

A outs, JEFFERSON Co. Feb. 19.The State Arsenal at Waterton was bro-ken open last evening, and Rome five hun-dred muskets taken out. Fairbanks, who isthe keeper, has offered a reward of $2500for the recovery of them.There begins to be some excitement here

upon the subject of Canada. Many loadsof men and provisions have been and arenow passing fiere for the -North.Some of them have called at the dilferent

stores for powder, and have bought all thatwas fur sale by the keg. Whether it willamount to any thing or not, we cannot dc-termiu,(The report is, that there is n considera-

The late Fire at West Point.-The burn-ing of the building at the Military AcademyofWest Point, whicha we gave an account ofthe day before yesterday, will prove a seri-ous loss to Government. A friend on thespot writes us that he estimates the danago at $50,000. 'T'hus in a few hours, sayshe "what has been the labor and work-manship of years been destroyed."The fillowing remarks we extract fromthe letter before us. as applicable to the oc-casion :

"Every physical energy was exerted toarrest the progress of the flames. aad ifthere had been at proper engine on the spiot,(which several Boards of Visitors havehitherto recomtmended,) these efforts anihthave been successful and the damage pre-vented"One thing at least iscertain, that the in-

terest exhibited anl the deference paid byevery one to the directions of the worthySuperintendent, who was present duringthe whole tiame of the fire, evinces a duesuordination and reciprocal feeling towardthe Government, whose indulgence theyenjoy."-N. Y. Cour. c EInq.

Defstrurtivc Fire, Imceri/Theatre Burned.-(O)i Sunday morning about 2 o'clock,(aswe learn from a New-York slip of Suniday,)a fire broke out in the Bowery Theatre,which entirely consumed the whole inte-rior building, togrther n% ith the machinery,d.-esses, &c, leaving noihing but part of thewalls standing. The btuilding adjoining,known as the old Bull's Ilead Tavern, wasalso burned. We understand the theatrewas insured for 30,000 dollars. The farebroke out in the paint room over the gallery,in frout. A stable belonging to Air. H'amblin.was burned at the same time, corner ofChristie and-Walker-streets, and a coloredmitan was burned to death.-Clar. Cour.

ODITUART.

(Communiratel,]Departed this life. at the residence of her

father in Abbeville District on Sunday 25February 1838, Airs. Sarah S. Lake con-sort of Capt. Tlomas Lake, of Edgefreid.aid daughter of Maj. John Chiles. of Ab-beville District, in the 27th year of her age.iHer amiable disposition, integrity of heart,and prudent deportment endeared her to allwho knew her. For otur years she wasa pious member ofthe Baptist Church; andgave striking evidence of the sincerity ofhier profession, and of the genuineness ofher religion Her last illness was of a shortcontinuance. Only two days did she sulfer.but her sufferings were severe. These shebore with remarkable fortitude and patienceuntil she quietly fell asleep in Jesus. Ofher it may be said she was truly lovelyeven in death

"She died in Jesus, and is bless'dHow kind her slumbers are!From suierings and from sin released,And freed from every snare.Far fron this world of toil and strife,She's ;r;.,jt with the Lord;The iabors of her mortal iifc,End in a large reward. C.

DI:n, on the 24th ilt. of a pulmonarycomplaint, in the 32nd year of her uge,Mrs. Sarah Marltin.She has kit a husband and 6 small chil-

dren to mourn her loss. She was a r em-her of the Baptist Church-retained leiright mind to her last monents. and de-parted in full confidence of a hapy innamor.tality beyond the prave. As a wife, andsnother, she was kind tender and atlection-ate, as a neighbour, sympathetic and oblig.ing. 1ier dear contpanion and sweet littlebabes (as she termed then in her last tio.inients) her servants and neighbours whohave received favours from her, can besiappreciate the value of this excellent wo.nian, in whose death t void is left whichtime nor circumstance can ever till.-Comuinen icatedl.
