SELF1sHNEss UNcnR1srrAS.--Live for some
purpose in the world. Act your part we'll.
Conduct yourselves so that you shall bs missed
with sorrow when you are gone. Mutitudes Of
species are living in such a selfish manner that
they are not likely to be remembered after their
disappearance. They leave behind them scarce
y any traces of their existence, but are forgot
ten almost as though they had never been. They
are, while they live, like one pebble lying unob-
served among million on shore, and when they
die, they are like that same pebble thrown into
the sea, which just rufes the surface, sinks, and
is forgotten without being missed from the beach.
They are neither regretted by the rich, wanted
By the poor, nor celebrated by the learned
Who has been the better Of their life Whose
tears have they dried up? whose wants supplied
whose miseries have they healed? Who would
unbar the gate of life, to readmit them to exist
ence or what face would greet them back again
to our world with smile? Wretchcd, unproft-
able mode of cxistence Seishncss is its own
curse it is a starving vice. The man who does
no good, gets none He is like the desert ;
neither yielding fruit nor seeing when good
cometh stunted, dwarfsh miserable shrub.

BEAUr1rUL.-It cannot be that earth is mans
abiding place. 1t cannot be that our life is cast
up by the ocean of eternity to float upon its
woes, and sink into nothinguess. Else, why is
it that the glorious aspirations, which leap like
angels, from the temple of our hearts, are for.
ever wandering about unsatisficd? ? Why is it,
that the rainbow and the clouds come over with
beauty that is not of earth, and pass off to
leave us to muse on their faded loveliness p
Why is it that the stars, who hold festival around
the midnight throne, are set above the grasp of
our limited faculties, forever mocking us with
their unapproachable glory' And, finally, why
is it that the bright forms of human beauty are
presented to our view and then taken from us,
leaving the thousand streams Of our affections
to flow into Alpine torrents! We are born for
higher destiny thar that Of earth.
There is a realm where rainbows never fade,
where the stars will be out before us like islets
that sulnber on the ocean, and where the beings
that pass before us like shadows, will stay in our
possession forever.

THE BIBLE A SUrpoRrER--Dr. Payson, when
racked with pain, and near to death, exclaimed
Oh, what blessed thing it is to lose ones will
Since have lost my will, l have found happi.
ness. There can be no such thing as disappoint-
ment to me, for have no desires but that Gods
will may be accomplished.
John Newton, in his old age, when his sight
had become so dim as to be unable to read,
hearing the Scripture repeated, by the grace Of
God | am what am, paused for some moments,
and then uttered this soliloquy: I am not what
l ought to be- All! how imperfect and deficient!
am not what wish to. be. | abhor that
Which is evil, and would GIeave to that which
is good. l am not whatI hope he. Soon,
soon, shall put off mortality, and with mortality
all sin and imperfection. Thong, | am not
what ought to be, what wish to be, and what
| hope to be, yet can truly say am not what
l once was, slave to sin and Satan; and can
heartily join with the apostle, and acknowledge,
By the grace of God l am what I am.

SACREDNEss IN TEARs.--Dr. Johnson Oh
serves: "There is a sacreduess in tears. They
are not mark of weakness, but of power
They speak more eloquently than ten thousand
tongues. They are the messengers of over
whelming gIef, of deep contriton, of unspeaka-
BILE love. If there were wanting any argument
to prove that man is not mortal, would look
for it in the strong convusive emotions Of the
breast, when the soul has been deeply agitated,
when the fountains Of feeling are rising, and
when the tears are gushing forth in crystal
streams. O, speak not harshly to the stricken
one, weeping in silence! Break not the deep
soemnity by rude laughter or intrusive footsteps.
Despise not woman's tears-they are what make
her an angel. Scoff no: if the stern heart of
manhood is sometimes melted to tcars-thcy are
what help to elevate him above the brute. love
to see tears of affection. They are painful tokens,
but still most holy. There is a pleasure in tears
AN awful pleasure. If there were none on
earth to shed tear for me, | should loathe
to live; and if no one might weep over my
grave, could never die in peace.
The Camden weekly journal. [volume] (Camden, South-Carolina) 1853-1861, 1855-04-17

A TOUCHING CUsTeM.-A common practice
in Paris, which impresses stranger favorably, is
that of taking off the hat when funeral passes
A writer on this subject relates the following:
Some years since, we were one OF that rush.
ing crowd ever pouring up and down Broadway.
When in front of old St. Paul's all eyes were
attracted by the appearance Of the crew Of the
French war vessel La Belle Poule which then
visited the United Stascs under the command
of the Prince de Joinville The crew were in
their naval dress uniform, bright and beautiful,
and were sauntering along seeing the sights.
All at once they stopped formed a line, faced
inward and uncovered. How exquisite and
touching was the scene when we discovered in
that thoughtless, busy, hurrying crowd, a man
of foreign birth, evidently poor and friendless,
under whose arm. was carried tiny coffin, and
by bis side the stricken mother. They were in
search Of a burial for their babe and were jos
tied and unheeded in that gay torrent of human
ity, until they met these hardy, tempest-tossed
mariners, who on the instant, with barred heads,
stood in silent respect, while the sacred ashes OF
the unknown infant were passing Such are
French manners.

DEN SOUTHCAROIINA, TUESDAY MORNING, APRIL II, 1855

Prayers IL BArrLE.-Acorresp spondent Of the
London Record relates the following interesting
Incident which occurred at Alma: !.
When the Light Division was on its march
to the Alma river, and about an hour before
the troops came within long range Of the enemy's
guns, a request was made by the haplain's Of
the division that short pause might be allow.
ed, for the purpose of otferingnp prayer to God.
Sir G.. Browne having consented, the regiments
halted, and three-sided square was formed.
The chaplains then united in solemn but SIM
pie prayer, and from the quietness and atten-
ton exhibited in the ranks doubt less this praye.
was joined in by many who stood silent Tire
time spent in this service was only eight min
utes, but at its conclusion, there were evident
tokens Of the spirit with which such an acknow-
ledgement of Gods sovereignty, and reliance
upon his mercy in religious cause, had been
regarded by the men. a public prayer on an
occasion of this sort is, believe, unprecedented
in the history of modern warfare, and it cannot
but be recognized as doubly important on the
occasion referred to. :.

A military officer, of diminutive stature, was
lately drilling an .Irishman considerably above
six feet Hold up your head" said the Officer,
elevatirg the chin of the Irshman, with the
head of his cane, to an angle Of forty-fve de-
grees. "Hold up Your head so, and throw your
eyes somewhat TO the right, thus"
"And must | always do so, my noble cap
tain q asked the new recruit, with much appa-
rent simplicity.
"Yes, always" answered the officer.
"Then, fare you well, my dear little fellow,
rejoined Paddy, shall never see you again"

Pretty Women and PoIiteness.

A talented lady who writes for the papers
speaks thus Of the city railway cars. The seats
of the car were all occupied-crowded: yet tho
conductor stopped for me. Not wishing to
disturb those who were seated, was intending
to stand but gentleman up at the far end
arose and insisted upon my taking his seat.
Being very tired thanked him and obeyed.
Presently lady much younger, much prcttier,
and much better, dressed than myself entered
the car
No less than four gentlemen rose instantly,
offering her seat. She smiled sweetly and
unafectedly, and thanking the gentleman who
urged the nearest seat to her she seated herself
with peculiar grace of manner. She had one
of those faces Raphael was always painting
touchngly sweet and expressive. A little after
this young beauty had taken her seat poor
woman, looking very thin and pale, with that
| care worn haggard look that poverty and sorrow
and hard labor always give, came in. She
might have been one of those poor seamstresses
who work like slaves and starve for their labor.
She was thnly and meanly clad and seemed
weak and exhausted. She had evidently no
sixpences to throw away and came in the car
not to stand, but to rest while she was helped
on in her journey. While she was meekly
standing Tor the moment, none of the gentlemen
[?] offering to rise Raphael,s angel, with sweet,
reproving eyes looked on those who had so
officiously offered her a seat and seeing none OF
them attempt to move; and just as myself was
rising to give the poor old lady a seat she arose
and insisted upon the woman taking her seat.
II was all the work of but moment; and the
look of grateful surprise the old woman gave
her and the glance Of sweet pity the beautiful
girl bestowed on the woman as she yielded her
seat, and the evident CONSERVATION of the broad
cloth individuals, who were manifestly put to
shame-all were to me irrcsistibly interesting
and Instructive. One of these same broadcloth
wearers apparently oserpowered with confusion,
got up and left the car and Raphael took his
vacant seat

WHEN WILL IT DE To-MoRRow.--The ques-
tion was asked by very little girl, so little that
her father could not make her understand that
tomorrow is always one day forward, and we
can never overtake it. But the children who
read this paper understand this. You know
that tomorrow is all the while changing into
to-day and to-day is all the while slipping away
into yesterday. The time will never come when
you can say, "Now it is to morrow" 1t is like
trying to run upon your shadow that lies along
the ground before you; it moves on just as fast
as you move, and keeps just so far of. Or it is
like going 10 the end Of the rainbow; rs soon
as you are there, you see the rainbow in another
plnce, as far off from You as it was before. They
used to tell me "if would 60 to the end Of the
rainbow, would find bag of money" They
know never could 60 to theend of it.
Just SO, you can never overtake tomorrow.
as soon as you come to it, it will be to-day, and
then what is now to-day will be Yesterday
Children, the time to do anything is not to NOR
row, nor yesterday, but to-day. We can make
no use Of time except awhile it is called to-day
Think how fast to-day is slipping by, how soon
it will be gone and you will call it yesterday
When it has become yesterday, you can put no
more good deeds into it. Be quick, and put
them into to-day. Fill it full of them. Fill
every to-day with kindness, and prayer, and
study, and love, and duty, and then every yes
terday will be pleasant to look back upon, and
then no matter how fast tomorrow comes.
