The Nowberry Sentinel in q recent mum.
Der has charged Governor Manning with fa-
voritism in giving State advertisements to
the Columbia Banner alone, thus excluding
the balance Of the Press in the State from
taking bite at the cherry. A writer in the
Banner, in alluding to these comments of the
Sentinel, states that the amount paid by the
State for advertising last year, was about
$4,000. The Chester Standard In allusion
to this, says, that most of this amount must
have been received by the papers Of, Colum.
bia and Charleston, or else the story about
the Press receiving $4,000 is false. For onr
part, even admitting that the advertisements
did amount to S6oOo, we really believe mo-
ney could not be more judiciously expended.
The Press does much for the State. Where.
ever paper is established, the State gains II
not pecuniarily, at least morally, and we 20

the Press, would not be wholly improper

could be saved, sayNS2ooo What is $4,000
devoted by the state to The upholding and
sustaining the Press Of the country What
Paltry sum, when compared to the amount
appropriated tor fre-arms! We consider
paper in district, rs doing more for the
couse Of education than the Free School
Fund! Say nothing then, admitting it to be
'rue' that this amount is thrown away indi-

bet high as Haman's."
"When l think" says The author, "of
that one man standing there at Washing

and Panic combined, betrayed by those
in whom he had trusted, assailed by all
that the snake of malice could hiss, or
the tiend Of q falsehood howl-when
think that one man placing his back
against the rock, and folding his arms for
the blow, while he uttered his awful VOW
by the Eternal l will not swervo an
inch from the course l have chosen,-I

The translators Of the Bible have left
the Hebrew word Selah, which occurs so
often in the Psalms, as they found it, and,
Of course, the English reader often asks
his minister, or some learned friend, what
Il means. And the minister or friend has
most often been obliged to confess ignor-
ance, because it is matter in regard to
which the most LEANED have by no means
been Of one mind. The Targums and
most Of the Jewish commentators give the
word meaning eternally forever. Rabbi
kinch regard it as a sign to elevate the
VOC. The authors Of the sertuagint
Translation appear to have regarded it as
musical sign, equivalent perhaps to the
word repeat According to Luther and
others it means silence! Genius explains
it to mean, Let the instruments lLay and
the singers stop. Wochem regards itas
equivalent to cursum corda, up my soul

when summing up his Distinguishing quail
ties, personal. social, and POLITICAL; for the
present we shall present Mr.. Calhoun to
the reader as he appeared in the spring
of 1884, when addressing tho citizens Of
Charleston. twas the first occasion that
W. we ever heard him in public, and although
1t would be impossible for us to give a
faithful synopsis OF his address, vet as we
are familiar with the topics lie discussed,
and having his works before us, we shall
make extracts which will afford a pretty
accurate idea OF the speech in question:
1t should be remarked that the address
was an impromptu, Mr.. Calhoun having
visited Charleston for the purpose of be-
ing present at the laying of the corner
stone of monument to Mr.. Tunbul,
and there being public meeting on the
evening Of that day. Mr.. Calhoun was
sent for by resolution of the assembly,

Happy on o Little.

A YOUNG friend in an earnest manner OBJ
served the other day in our presence, that he
would be happy to be she possessor of two
hundred and fifty thousand dollars. He
would then go here, and there, buy this and
that; In short, possess himself of everything
the heart could wish for. But let us ask,
would you then be happy! Men of wealth
appear to us to be more unhappy those in
Strengthened circumstances We would no,
exchange situations to-day, with many rich
man We wot of. We earn what we live
upon, and therefore are more content. Hay-
ing no surplus fund, we are never puzzled
and bothered, inquiring the prices of stock,
ana alarmed when the least change comes
over the money market There Is no neces-
sary we crave but what we can obtain. What
else do We wish' Nothing. 1t is true, IL
we had thousands at our command, We could
travel. Go to Europe and all over the world,
but will this bring us more happiness than
remaining at home with our wife and chill
dren; and even If they accompanied us, is
the pleasure of travelling, insulted by por-
ters and cabmen, and bothered with pass
ports to bcs compared to the quiet enjoy
ment Of ones home, beneath his own vine
and hg tree! We have tried many projects
IN our life, all having tendency to enhance
our comfort, but two great secrets wo had
to learn before we could appreciate the hap
Piness we speak Of. Learn these, and IL by
experience probably the better. The secrets
are; First, If you are comfortable, be con-
tent to let "welI' alone. Secondly, just
consider how much more uncomfortable you
may be-that limited as your means may
be, you possess much more than thousands
in this world own.
