AWFUL CATASTROPHE. We-know not in what'terms to announce the overwhelming news which reac'ed us last- night, The fate of the steamer .San Francisco is:at length known, and terrible beyond expression it is. Universal anxiety ias become dreadful certainty. The ship founded, and two hundred and forty of the seven hundred human beings with which she was freighted have perished in the sea. They did not indeed go down with the ship, but were swept overboad frem het decks some days before sheafoundered. Buta beneficent Providence tempers the severest afflictions with consolations, and so this dreadful calamnity might, but for his mercy, have; been infinitelv more disastrons; for all of the hundreds on board when the-ship sank were providentially -rescued by vessals ac cidentally at hand. Of those who perished some were of the most distingished and beloved of the land. :The following are the sad parti6ulars and the names of some of the loet, as. they reached us last night by telegrraph: NEW YORK, J.AN. 13. The ship Three Bells has arrived with one hundred and sixty persons saved from the steamer San Francisco, which founded at sea on the 5th of January. Those who have arrived include about one hundred offiicers and soldiers and most of the the crew of the ill-fated steamer. A nunber of oi:her passengers were taken off the sinking ship by the bark Kilby, bound for Boston, and many by the ship Antarctic, bound for Liverpool: Most of the cabin passengers, together with as many soldiers as it was deemed prudent for her to take, numbering in all about one hundred persons, are on board the bark Kilby. She has probably gone to Bermuda, having parted company with the steamer during a gale on the night of the 29th December, four days before the Three Bells left. The ship Antartic has on board the residue of the troops, and Capt. Watkins, of the steamer San Francisco, who ias pro ceeded to Liverpool with them to see that they-are properly provided for. In the gale of the 23d December, the San Francisco broached to twice, and was much disabled. On the 24th all her spars and sails were blown away. At one o'clock in the morning of the 26th the engine stopped in consequence of the breaking of the piston rod, and left the vessel totally unmanageable, the sea at the same time striking her tremen dous blows under the guards, tearing up the planitking fore and aft on both sides, and causing the ship to leak badly. The troops were then organised into bailing parties. At nine o'clock on the 25th, a heavy sea struck the steamer amidships, carrying away both smoke stacks, all the upper saloon, staving the quarter deck, and washing over. board a large number of persons, besides killing three of the ship's crew. On the 2Sth, the bark Kilby was spoken, and laid by the steamer untill three o'clock itn the afternoon of the 20th, when a number of the passengers were transfered to the bairk, wvhich let go her htawser at ten o'clock at night an'd nothing htas sitnce been heard of her. Trhe gale continued throughout the 30th, an d .31st, a number of the men being sick, and some in a dying condition. In the evening of thte 1st Januarty, the Btritisht ship Three Bells was si oken, atd baid by thie steamer untill the 3d, whent hter boat was got along side. On the same day the ship Antarctic discoveredl and he ra dlown for t'te steamer, a nd on the 4tht both shtips commenced ta king otf the passengers, together w"ith the niece'ssary' provisons and water, whicakh was accomplished by six o'clock in the eveninig. ITe next mnorninig they' took of' the officers and erc iv, Capt. W~atkins havitng been the last main to leauve the ship, which ha~d been w"ith diileulty kept afloat f'or ten or twelve dayvs. TJhtose lost ov'erbaird are Col. John M. Washington, M~ajor Gen. Taylor and wife, C-:pt. II. B Field, Lieut. R. HI. Smith, three civilians and two latdies whlose namies are tnot r.'portt d, and somte two htundred atnd thirty of the troops. Of the crew of the ship there wvere eleven dleaths fromt the timie she was disabled till the 8th instant. Major Wyse and Lieut. WV. A. Winder are amuongst the passengers who have arri v'ed in New York. Col. Gates, Col. Boark, Major Merchant, Capt. Judd antd wlfe, Lieut. Fremont and family, Lieut. Loeser, Lieut. Vanvart, and the ladies antd children are on boardl the bark Kilby. Capt. Watkins, Lieut. Chandler, and Lieut. C. S. Witnder are on the shia Ant-arctic. P0oRK PACKING.-ln thle West the only *item of interest is the pork,. packing. At Cincintnati the number slaughtered is now equal to that of last year, while at Louis ville the excess is 100.000. At Louisville, Mladisoni and Cincinnati the excess at the close of the season will be about 120,000 ; at St. Louis, Nashville and the Lake potts, the amount will be about the same as last year. What the extent of country packing is, it is, of course, impossible to say ; but we think it wvould be safe to calculate an - excess of the whole West of 150,000 over last season; atnd as the hogs this year are * from ten to twenty per cetnt, heavier thtan last year', it will be seen that the excess, in pouttds, will be very heavy. THE REPORTED PURCHrAsE oF THLE MU'S KUIrO K!NGoo.-lThe'ashliton corres p~ondent of the New York Courier and En quirer states that facts are known in that city, which justify the itnference that the British Government is preparing for the grad. ual abandonment of all Central America, and that a company Itas been formed itn New-York and Phtilaidelphia for the purchase of the Mnsqjuito kingdom, and that one-half had alre:ady been trasf'erred and the money paid for it.

CONSTANTLY ON HAND &-STILL RECEIVING!1 I AM NOW receiving my usual supply of GOODS for the FALL AND WINTER TRADE, To which I respectfully invite the attention of the .Community and the Trading Public. W. P. BUTLER, Edgefield C. H., Oct. 12, No 1, PARK Row. FALL TRADE, FOR 1853! C UN A NHAM r HE UNDERSIGNED having given a further trial to the CA11 SYSTEM during the rLpast season, have become still more convinced that it is the only.true system of doing a GROCERY BUSINESS on terms advantageoust to both seller and buyer, being the cepest. safest and surest, for both. While the seller is benefitted by getting the CASH PAID DOWN for his Goods, enabling him to turu his money over many times in the year, the buyer has the advantage of getting his Goods Ten or Fifteen per Cent Cheaper Than they can be obtained from those who sell on credit; they being compelled to sell at this tiit'erence of per ceintage-to cover bad debts and pay the'additional expense of keepintg and col. ectiing ong accounts. It only requires a little reflection, aided by a slight examination, to con vicee those Who visit hlanburg for the purpose of purchasing SUPPLIES, that the Merchant who deals exclusively on the Cash System in purchasing his Stock, lays-it in cheaper than those Wiho lay in large Stocks on credit, with a view to selling them out in the same way, being enabled to turn his capital over only once a year, must of course getlarger profits to sustain his business. than him who on the Cash system, buys moderate Stocks, BELLS QUICK and TURNS OVE hi capital every thirty to sixty days. The intelligent planter will perceive that the CASH SYSTE3I Merchant will have made more money at the end of the year, by making FIVE PER CENT PROFIT. than the credit system man will at TwENTY-FIVE, and that those who buy Goods had better lor row the money at home, and allow even fifteen or twenty per cent interest, and pay CASH for his supplies, than to purchase on time even from the best CREDIT HOUSES. The Undersigned having made ample arrangements to keep on hand a LARGER STOCK, and much better assortment of ALL KINDS OF GROCERIES Than they did the pasf season, only ask of their friends and-others visiting this market, to give them a call, where they will find, in addition to FINE FAMILY GROCERIES, a large supply of nearly all the staple Goods usually used in the country, sneh as Saddlery, Hats, Shoes, Calicoes, Shirtings, Sheetings, Blaikets, FLANNELS, &c., &c. Being thankful for the liberal patronnge of the past season, and looking forward to 2 largely increased trade the coming Fall. we have laid in and are now receiving our Stock, and t ike plea. ure in calling the attention of customers.to our superior Teas, Sugars, Coffee, Cheese, Molasses, Flour, Bacon, WINES AND LIQUORS.

Nov 23 tf 45 THE MARRIAGE STATE; Shall Happiness and Irealth, or .Utsery and Sickness, allend il { MOST STARTLING CONSIDERATIONS I Reflections for the Thoughtful. Strange that countless human beings exist and drag through life as do the beasts of the field, or the insects of the earth, evincing no more thou;ht or reflection than though the noble faculties of mmid were not vouchsafed to them. lany such are husbands and fathers, upon whomt arc dependent the health, the well-being, and Ole happiness of a confiding and affectionate wife, with perhaps a family of children. HtoW OFTEN IT HIAPPENS TihAT THE WIFE LINGERS PROM YEAR TO YEAR in that pitiable condition as not even fot' one day to feel the happy and exhilerating influence incident to the enjoyment of health. She may not be an invalid confined to her bed, or even to her room ; as her pride, ambition and energy induce and nerve her to take personal charge of her household, even when her health will not admit tof it ; hut she is nevertheless perceptibly sinking from day to day, and alway ailing. Thus, day after day, and month after month trarr spire. Her health daily sinks, till finally even the hope of recovery no longer remains. And thus THE BLOOMING BRIDE, But a few years ago in the flush of health and youth, and buoyancy of spirits, rapidly, and appa rcntly inexplicably, becomes a febe, sickly, de bilitated .wife, with frame emaciated, nerves un strung, spirits depressed, countenance bearing~ the impress of suffering, and an utter physica n mental prostration. afl Sometimes this deplorable change may.nnd does arise from organie or constitutional causes. But oftener, by far oftener, to gross and inexcusable ignorance of the simplest and plainest rules of health as connected with the marriage state, the i violation of which entails disease, sufforing and misery, not only to the wife, but often Hereditary Complaints uponi thle Children " UNro TlrE TIKIRD AND FOURTH oENERSATrON," Transmitting CONSUMPTION, SCROFULA, IYPOCIIONDRIA, INSANITY, GOUT, KING'S EVIL, and' other diseases, as a DREADFUL INHERITANCE from thu Par'ents. And must this continue t Shall we be wise In all that concerns the cattle of our fields, our horses, our sheep, our cows, our oxen, the nature and character of the soil we possess, the texture and qurality of our goods and merchandise ; but in all that concerns ourselves as human beings, with human functions and passions, subject to great derange ment, involving our future peace and happiness *in all that concerns the health and welfare of the wife of our affections, and the mother of our chil dren; in all that concerns the mental and pysical well being of those children, we should be imn *mersed in the darkest and most BEN IGH"TED IGNORAN CE,4 AS Cm~LrAst.E As INExcusaUr.E ! How long shalt this ignorance prevail so prodac-' tivo of its bitter fruits 1 How lung shall the wife and mother be Ignorant of the nature, character and causes of the various womb and sexual complaint., embittering her days by suffering-suffering often prolonged to years, eventuating in a complication of diseases utterly and hopelessly incurable 1 Shall we for ever close our eyes to the result. of physio logical science by which we may arrive at an understanding of ourselves as men and women subject to serious life-Iong enduring diseases, andJ perpetuating them to our chrldren.
