There were thousands present; he thinks shout half tho popula tion of tho fown most have been there. Troops of horse, and men armed in va rious ways, were there. Somo cried "Spike him!" "Shoot himl" Hang him!" &c. He was stripped to the ankles, and a negro, under throats of being lash ed himself, gave him thirty-nine lashes. The blood flowed, and the marks of this yet remain. Tbe oontentB of a tar-bucket were then applied to his head and his body down to tbe waist. He suffered aw ful pangs, which were the subjeot of de rison. Tho train during all this was stopped, and the engineer celebrated the event by sounding the whisJo freely. Powers, was, after an interval of nearly three hours, put on the train, in a car full of negroes, and taken toward Charles ton. After he had travelled, be supposes, fifty miles a master-mechanic of Charles ton, pitying his sufferings and exhaustion, cave him a cup of coffee and a biscuit; -j whereupon the mob around the station threatened that person, swearing also death to himself. Some oamo into the cars and seized him by the hair, saying, "Let's look at you ' Somo desired to give him a fresh coat of tar and feathers, but not being able to find any of those staples, they applied cotton to the tar al- ; ready on him. Tho mob were likewise , of opinion that there were a whole lot of Abolitionists in the cars who ought to be hanged. He arrived at Charleston and was put in prison. I He had been kindly counselled to make no complaints, or he would get 130 lash es more. A physician who attended him, told him he escaped easily; for there were seven men, accused of being North ern pickpockets, arrested at the Agricul tural State Fair, and committed to jail. One of them had received 500 laahes; an other a less number; that tbe man who received tho 500 was near dying. Pow ers had not read of any trial of these men so accused and punished. Oil and wa ter were given him to clean himself. Si lence was enjoined on him, lest the mob should get hold of him. He paid his own passage money from Columbia to Charleston, the negro taking out S5 from his pocket book. He heard that it was published that the negroes of Columbia, had made a subcripton to pay hi" pas sage. On Saturday lost 7 in tbe morn ing, he was put on a steamer for New York. When tbe Christmas festivities wero at their height on Monday, thin "poor Ex ile of Erin," with the blood lash marks on bis body inflicted under tbe reis of tbo Constitution and laws, for some maudlin words or childish talk in Colum bia, South Carolina arrived at this great metropolis.

Paron Brownlow, of the West Tennessee Whig, who is in the habit of speaking his mind freely, is per haps as free spoken as are Americans and Deraoorats in Congress. He says: "We of course, will not advise South ern Oppopsition members what to do, be lieving them eompctent to preserve their own solf respect, and to discharge a sworn duty to their country and their constitu ents. But wero we a member of the Southern Opposition in Congress, before we would oooupy tbe paltry and contemp tible Bltitude of creeping after a party that had spurned us by its deliberate acts, we would see tbe Capitol of the Nation, and all the territory north and south of it, sunk to eternal perdition. Nay, we would see all tho political organizations in America as far in Hell as a pigeon could fly in a thousand years, or a forge hammer would fall in twice that length of time! Sooner than thus degrade our selves under a pretence of battling for the homes and rights of our children, we would see thorn all starve to death, and then scat ourselves upon their coffins with a Southern gentleman and play plush pin for a drink of lager beer!" . To Eemove -Lafcip Oil from Marble. It is difiiault to remove lamp oil from white marble after it has become dry. Strong soap-suds and alcohol will remove somo of it from tho surface; but if the oil bas been colored tbe stain is liable to re main. Another method ia sometimes ef fectual, viz. take some soapstone dust and place it on the top of the oil stain, then lay a sheet of blotting paper over it, and on the top of this a warm flat iron not too hot. Allow the iron to remain until it is cool; heat it again and do the eamo two or three times, when the beat will penetrate to tbo marble and warm the oil, which will then be absorbed by the dust. When polished marblo table tops have been wet with water or any other liquid, they should he rubbed afterwards with some fine whiting and a smooth piece of cork to restore tbo polish; and, lastly, tbey should be wiped witb a piece of silk or soft buff leather.

It will be better still, if the commingled mas can bo steamed or boiled. This process 6oftens the coarse, hard stalks and straw, and enables the auimals to digest them more perfectly. The use of steamed food is increasing a mong those who have sufficient capital to carry on the business of farming. It en ables one to work up all tho rough fod der, and to pass it through the stomach of thriving cattle. It gathers up tbe fragments so that nothing is lost. If the steaming apparatus or a large boiling kettle be not readyand the meal is not to be had, it i3 a good plan to mix sliced roots with tho coarse fodder out up short. Turnips, beets, carrots, paraneps, and mangel wurtzels, are rapidly reduced to fine chips with a root cutter, and arc highly relished by cattle. Tbey ouht to be used in connection with hay or straw. Animals will thrive much better upon this mixture, than upon either used separate ly. In any one of these ways, rough fodder j may be turned to good account, and all stabled animals be kept full fed from tbe close of tho grazing season until Spring. This careful preservation of fodder will greatly increase the manure heap, and add to the riches of tbc farm. Stuff the animals and they may stuff the soil. A merican Agriculturist. Wholesale Poisoning. It is known (miys a writer iu the New ark Advertiser,) that modern liquor is a villainously poisonous concoction that fuch a thing as pure wine, brandy or whiskey, does not exist, or is certainly never sold to the frequenter" of j;rog .bops. There is at Cincinnati an officer appointed by tbo authorities, called a Chemical Inspector, whose buine?a it is to go roond among tho liquor stores and grog shops and test the purity of the stuff they are selling. The law compels them to submit to this inspection. The tet of chemicals, when applied to tho liquors, detaches whatever adultearation may exist Dr. Hiram Cox, the Cincinnati inspec tor, has published many deeply interest ing facts of oxperience in testing liquor sold in that city. In 700 inspections of stores and lots of liquors of overy variety, he found that 90 per cent, wero impreg nated with the most pernicious and pois onous ingredients. Nineteon young men, all sons of respectable citizons were killed outright, by only three months drinking of these poisoned liquora. Many older men, who wero only moderate drinkers died within tho samo period of delirium tremens, brought on in one quarter the time usual even with confirmed drunkards by drinking tbe same poison. Of 400 insane patients, ho found that two-thirds had lost their reason from the samo cause. Many of these were boy under ago. One boy of 17 was made in sane by tho poition from being drunk only once. Seeing two men drinking in a grog shop, and that the whiskey was so strong that it actually caused tears to flow from tho eyes of ouo of them, the doctor ob tained somo of it and applied bis tests. Ho found it to contain ouly 17 per cent, of alcohol, whon it should have had 40, oud that tbc difference was supplied by sulphuric acid, red pepper, caustic, potas sa and strychnine. A pint of this liquor contained enough poison to kill the stron gest man. The man who manufactured it bad grown wealthy by producing it. Even braudy, marked "Seiguette," brought from New York at a high price, by an apothecary who was anxious to have a perfectly pure article for making np prescriptions for tbe sick, was shown to contain to mucb deadly acid at to turn r.Wk in fifteen minutes' after a snatula had been introduoed into it, while the . trained up for the world in the streets spatula was attacked by tbe acid and cx I in the cambling and tippling saloon tensivcly corroded.

The sentence wan no sooner con cluded, than the squaw sprang upon hor feet, and clapping her bauds, exclaimed with joy, "Now mo ready to be courted again The Sequel. Our readers have all heard the i-tory of soapinp the clergy man's tin-horn at oamp meeting so that when he went to call tbe congregation to gether he blew the 'soft soap over his brother clergyman, and how he exclaim ed: 'Brethern, I havo Ferved tbe Lord thir ty years, and in that time never uttered a profane word, but I'll be d d if 1 can't whip tbe man that soaped tho horn!' Our readers, we say, have all heard this but perhaps never the sequel as giv en us yesterday by a gentleman present. Some two years after, a tall swarthy, villainous looking desperado strolled on the grounds and leaned against a tree, listening to tbe eloquent exhortation to repent, which was being made by the preacher. After a while he becamo in terested and finally affected, and then took a position on the anxions seat, and with bis face between bis hands com menced groaning in 'the very bitterness'of his sorrow. The Clergyman walked down and endeavored to -console him. No consolation he was too great a sinner he said. Ob, no, tberc was pardon for the vilest. No, he was too wicked there was no meroy for him. 'Why, what orimo have you commit ted!' said tbe benevoloct preacher 'havo you stolenl' 'Ob, worse than thatl' 'What! have you by violence robbed fe male innocence of its virtue!' 'Worse oh worse than that!' 'Murder is it!' gasped the horrified preacher. 'Worse than that!' groaned the smit-, ten sinner. Tbe excited proneber-commenced 'peel ing off his outer garment. 'Here Brother Cole!" shouted he ,hold ray coat I've found the fellow . that soaped my horn!' While the lost century was flourishing, there dwelt in what is now a famous city not a mile from Boston, an opulent widow lady, who once afforded a queer illustra tion of that compound of incompatible?, called "human nature." It was a ohristmas Eve of one of those old-fa&hioned winters wbich were so bit ter cold. The old lady put on an extra shawl; and as she hugged the shivering frame, she said to her faithful negro ser vant : "It i3 terrible cold to-night.
