Mike Walsh.

The Hon. 4. II. Stephens, in late speech
at Griffin, Ga, called for three cheers for Mike
Walsh; aud they were given from four thousand
throats.
Mike has certainly been true to the South,
and with all his errors, we believe him % be
an honest man anda patriot. We first saw
him nearly twenty years ago, when he wasn't
more than twen,y.o one years DID, lie came in.
TO our Office in an old suit Of clothes, muddy
from head TO foot, took dollar from his pocket;
which he said was all the money he had in
the world, and offered it 10 US to nay for ad-
vertishg scoundreI, who, on his way up the
river, had stolen everything belonging to him.
We couldn't take the poor fellows dollar,
but we published his advertisement. We had
forgotten the circumstance until he recalled
it to cur mind, in the presence of some of
his Congressional colleagues last Winter.
1t seems Mike was coming up the river with
n few hard earned dollars in his fob, when a
fellow who claimed to he the son of minister
got into the young mans good graces by rep
rrsenling himself sick and utterly destitute.
Mike put him into his own staeroom and gave
him part Of his money and took care Of him.
When the boat stopped at landing, the
invalid proicssed terrible desire for some
milk, and begged Mike to go to a house half a
mile of to obtain some. Mike demurred,
saying that the boat would leave him. But
the fellow made such pteous appeals TO him
that he actually went, and the boat left him
sure enough, wherempon the invalid, recover
ing suddenly, took possession OF Mikes trunk
aud all his worldly possessions except what he
carried upon his back in his excursion after
the milk. Mike went to chopping wood till
he got enough to take him to Louisville, and
on arriving here found, rs he expected, that
his customer was unknown in these parts.
Without iarthing about him, he went to
shoveling in the canal, and the first dollar he
made there was the Que lie brought to us. He
t"iIed in the mud until he made enongh to g"
10 Cleveland ON his way home, and there met
in the street the man who had swiudled him.
The swindler ran like DEER but Mike pursued
him like greyhound, caught him, and thrash.
ed him nearly to death in the street before any
one could interfere. Mike was sent 10 Jail
for assault and battery, and lis victim was
sent to the penitenliary. Mike is true hearted
possesses very considerable talent, and is an
utter stranger to either personal or political
fear. We say with Mr.. stephens, ''three cheers
forMike Walsh. ."-LouisriNr Journal, Sd ASt.

Kings Mountain Letter from Hon.
ID. IL. AtchisOM.

The Yorkvile Enquirer is publishing letters
received from eminent gentlemen in answer to
invitations to attend the recent celebration of
the Battle Of Kings Mountain! From among
them We select the folowing:,-
PLATTE CITY, Missouri, Sept. l2, 1855.
Gentlemen:-Your letter Of invitation re.
questing my yattendance at the celebration of
the Battle of Kings Mountain, has been receiv-
ed. 1t will be altogether inconvenient for me
TO lie present on that OCCASION. have certain
duties, both private and public, to discharge
at home. The Battle of Kings Mountain was
fought by the Williams against the Torys
under the gallant Ferguson. We have similar
foe to encounter in Kansas, the first Monday in
October next. The border ruffians, such as
fou ght with Mcdowell, Shelby, &C., on the
one hand, and the aboltionists men as
fought irh Ferguson, on the other We, (the
border rufflans,") have the whole power of
the Northern States to contend with, single.
handed and aloEe, without assistance and
almost without sympathy from any quarter,
yet we arc uudismayed. Thus far we have
been victorious and with the help Of God, We
will still continue to conquer.
Gentlemen, thank you for the kind expres.
sion in the concluding paragraph of your letter
three cheers for Atchison and Kansas
| have read this paragraph to sundry of the
'border ruffians," and their eyes sparkle; their
arms are nerved. We have been acting on
the defensive altogether; the contest with US is
one Of life and death, and it will be so with
you and your institutions if we fail. Atchison,

ern press; and yet we have received no assist
ance from the Southern States. But the time
will shortly come when that assistance must
and will be rendered; the stake the @border
ruffians" are playing for isa mighty one. II
Kansas is aboltionized Missouri ceases to be a
slave State and New Mexico becomes a free
State, California remains free State; but il
we secure Kansas as a slave State Missouri is
secure; New Mexico and Southern California
if not all of it becomes slave State; in a
word, the prosperity or the ruin Of the whole
South depends on the Kansas struggle.

NOTHING IS LOST.

Nothing Is lost: the drop of dew
Which trembles on the leaf or flower
Isbut exhaled to fall anew
In summers thunder shower;
Perchance to shine within the bow
That fronts the sun at fall Of day;
Perchance to sparkle in the flow
Of fountains far away.
Nothing is lost: the tiniest seed,
By wild birds borne or breezcs blown,
Finds something suited to its need,
Wherein tits sown and grown,
The language of some household song,
The perfume Of some cherished flower,
Though gone from outward sense, belong
To memory's after hour.
So with our words or harsh or kind,
Uttered they are not all forgot;
They leave the influence on the mind,
Pass on, but perish not!
SO with our deeds; for good or i'll
They have their power, scarce understood;
Then let US use our better will
To make them rife with goodl

A speech Of this distinguished Carolinian on
the American question appears to day in our
columns. 1t is by one who for years Represented
this State in Congress, aud stood among the
foremost as State Rights man and Democrat.
Mr. Woodward acquired high reputation for
calm anlytical logic, broad views, and purity and
independence Of course. This speech should be-
read by every South Caroliuian. 1t is dispassion
ate, unprejudced searching and suggestive.
More than any other production on the subject
!: meets our views. In fact it gives the very
reasons which lead us into the American party,
and which constitute our conviction that its
necessity and principle will make it permanent
until the necessity is removed and the principle
consummated.
Let every man looking for truth and right read
it 1t comes from an experienced, observing ard
dsinterestcd retired statesman of our own-a
South Caronian who has honored his name
Every paper in the State should give currency
to this impartial argument. Wcrepeat, let our
people have light. lie brushes away the minor
points of objection which our small
and interested politicians here have sought to
make mountans--and advances over and

Carnival OF ANOTHER DETACHMENT OF

gers by the ship Star Of Empire, which arrived
at this port on Wednesday, from Liverpool,
were about sixty Scotch girls, engaged to work
in the factories here. They were mostly
young neatly dressed and some Of them are
quite good looking. They were forwarded to
Holyoke, their place of destination last even

The Wife'S Influence.

A woman, in many instances, has her hus
bands fortune in her power, because she may
not conform to bis circumstances. This is her
first duty, and it ought to be. her pride. No
passion for luxury or display ought 10 tempt her
for a moment to deviate in the least degree from
this line Of conduct. She will 6nd her respec.
liability in it. Any other course is wretchedness
itself, and inevitably leads to ruin.
Nothing can be more miserable than to strug.
gle to keep up appearances. If it could sue.
ceed, il would cost more than it is worth; as it
never can, its failure involves the deepest morti-
fcation. Some of the sublimest exhibitions of
human virtue have been made by women, who
have been precipitated suddenly from wealth
to want.
Then mans fortunes are in manner in the
hands of his wife, inasmuch as his own power of
exertion depends on her. Hi. moral strength is
inconceivably increased BY her sympathy, her
counsel, her aid. She can aid him immensely
by relieving him Of every care which she is ca.
pable of taking upon herself His own employ.
ments are usually such as to require his whole
time and his whole mind.
A good wife will never suffer her husbands
attention to be distracted by details to which her
own time and talents are adequate. If she be
prompted by true affection and good sense, she
will perceive when lis spirits are borne down
and overwhelmed, she, of all human beings, can
best minister to his needs. For the sick soul
her nursing is quite as sovereign as it is for cor.
poreal ills.
If it be weary, in her assiduity it finds repose
and refreshment. If it be harassed and worn to
morbid irritability, her gentle tones steal over
it with soothing more potent than the most
exquisite music. If every enterprise be dead,
her patience and fortitude have the power to
re.kindle them in the heart, and he again goes
forth to renew the encounter with the tolls and
troubles Of life.

How To DRIVE NAIL.-In driving cut
nail into hard wood, its entrance will be much
facilitated by dipping it into oil, or what will
answer nearly rs well, wet it with water. Eypc-
ricnced carpenters are in the habit of putting
nail into the mouth to wet it, before attempting
to drive it into hard wood. When nail is TO
remain permanently, salt water is preferable to
oil, as the former will rust the nail and cause it
to take frmer hold. In all cases it is better
to insert nail SO that its widest diameter shall
stand parallel with The grain of the wood. This
is generally done in thin boards where there is
danger Of splitting, but it should always be
done, even ii mailing into solid piece Of tin.
her; for where rupture does not take place by
setting the wide part Of the nail across the grain,
yet a slight opening is produced near the nail,
which admits air AID moisture and hastens de.
cay around it.--BoSton Post.
