made known his wants TO the Legisla-
ture of South Carolina in the following
language: Il am one OF the lingering
survivors Of an almost extinguished race.

The Duty of Labor.

No man can rise from the workman's
rank. Fall he may, and often does from
that estate, but to rise above the order
the great God has established to govern
His world, is impossible. Every man
should be a workman, and fill up a work
mans rank. He must fill that or loaf
er's. He who made the world never
made spot on it for an idler. He new
err made man who was TO live by his
brain alone, or such one would have
been all brains. Body and soul, pow
ers physical and mental, are to be used.
else they never would have been given;
and whoever finds himself in possession
of pair of hands, a set of bones and
muscles, may rest assured that he has
command to use them.

THE DES MONIES COURIER.
How TO Take a Paper.

Be sure to pay in advance and thus have
the privilege of reading YOUR OWN paper
instead of the PUBLISHERS If you change
your residence, inform the publishers inn
mediately, stating your NAME, the town you
move FROM, and the town you move TO.
Our CoURsE.-We continue to send pa
pers to subscribers, after the time for which
they first subscribed has expired, UNLESS
OTHERWISE ORDERED. We never stop pa
per until all arrearages are paid up, or we
are assured that subscriber is worthless.
1t is useless, therefore, for man of
'smeans, to order his paper stopped while
he is owing any thing for it.
The LAW OF NEWSPAPERS Subscri-
bers who do not give express notice to the
contrary, are considered as wishing to con-
tinue their subscriptions.
2. If subscribers order the discontinuance
of their papers, the publisher may continue
to send them until all arrearages are paid
3. If subscribers neglect or refuse to
take their papers from the Office to which
they are directed, they are held responsible
till they have settled the bill and ordered
the paper discontinued.
a. If subscribers remove to other places
without informing the publishers, and the
paper is sent to the former direction, they
are held responsible.
5. The Courts have decided that refusing
to take paper from the office, or removing
and leaving it uncalled for, is ssprima facie'
evidence of intentional fraud
6. Any person taking one number of a
paper from the Office, or any post office
sent to his address; although he did not
subscribe, by that act makes himself SUBJ
scriber.

SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST A NAVAL

SERIOUS CHARGE AGAINST NAVAL
OFFIcER.--It is stated that the crew of
the United States steamer Vixen, have
been discharged, and that the comrnan-
der, Lieut.. James III. Ward, has been
suspended for brutal treatment of the
men. 1t appears that one of the crew
was ordered TO join the vessel last week,
but refused, stating, as all excuse for his
conduct, that the captain of the vessel
was monster, whose cruelties to his
men were unexampled, and that, rather
than sail under his orders, he would
lose his right arm. He subsequently
proceeded to a wood pile in the Navy
Yard at Washington, and with single
blow of an axe severed his hand from
hisarm.

Mysteries Of the telegraph.

The Magnetic Telegraph will ioreye,
remain mystery TO the great mass oil
the people, and the pardonabIe igno-
rance which people display concerning
it, often gives birth to curious remarks.
Not long ago, an old lady entered Mr..
O'Reily's Office, in this city and said she
had a message to send to Wheeling. In
few moments her note was deposited
in dumb waiter, and assembled in mys.
FERROUS manner through the ceiling.
.Is that going straight to Wheeling!''
Inquired the old lady, with her eyes bent
upon the ceiling.
"Yes ma'am," aswered the clerk.
II never was there," continued she,

II can scarcely tell, ma'am-it may

The old lady went away, and return
ed in exactly two hours. Just as she
entered the door, the dumb waiter camc
down through the ceiling.

Farewell.

We do not know how much we love
Until we come to leave;
An aged tree, a common flower
Are things DER which we grieve.
There is pleasure in the pain
That brings us back the past again.
We linger while we turn away;
We cling while we depart;
And memories UNMARKED till then,
Come crowding round the heart.
Let what will turn our onward way,
Farewells a bitter word to say.

Rain on the II 0 0 (.

When the humid showers gather
Over all the starry spheres,
And the melancholy darkness
Gently weeps in rainy tears,
It's a JOY to press the pillow
OF cottage chamber bed,
And listen to the patter
Of the soft rain overhead.
Every tinkle on the shingles
Has an echo in the heart,
And thousand dreary fancies
Into busy being start;
And thousand recollections
Weave their bright hues into wool,
AS listen to the patter
OF the soft rain on the roof.
There in fancy comes my mother,
As she used to, years agone,
To survey the infant sleepers
Ere she left them till the dawn.
/ can see her bending DER me,
AS listen to the strain
Which is played upon the shingles
BY the patter of the rain.
Then my little seraph sister,
With her wings and waving hair,
And her bright-eyed, cherub brother
A serene, angelic pair
Glide around my wakeful pillow
With their praise of mild reproof,
AS listen to the murmur
Of the soft rain on the roof.
And another comes to thrill me
With her eyes delicious blue
forget, as gazing on her,
That her heart was all untrue;
/ remember that ] loved her
AS ne'er may love again,
And my hearts quick pulses vibrate
To the patter of the rain.
There is naught in arts bravuras
That can work with such spell,
In the spirits pure, deep fountains,
Whence the holy passions swell,
AS that melody of nature
That subdued, subduing strain,
Which is played upon the shingles
BY the patter of the rain!
