GIVE DIE DAILY"

The bodies of animals are continually un-
dergoing series of invisible changes ofsub-
stance, of which they are entirely uncon-
scious. We look at our hands to-day, as We
write, and we fancy it is the same in SUBJ
stance as it was yesterday, or last year-as
it was ten years ago. The form of each fin
ger, of each nail, is the same. Scars made
in our infancy are still here. Nothing is al
tered or obliterated and yetitis not the same
hand. 1t has been renewed over and over
again since the days of youth, the skin, and
flesh, and bone, have been frequently re-
moved and replaced. And so it is, more Or
less, with our whole body. The arms and
limbs that sustained US in our schoolboy
struggles are long since consigned to the dust,
have perhaps lived over again more than
once in plant, or flower, or animal. In from
three to FIVE years the entire body is taken
out and built in again with new materials.
A continued activity prevails among the liv.
ing agencies to which this hidden work is
committed. Every day small part is car.
ried away; just as if single brick were
every day taken out of an old wall, or sim
gle wheel out of watch, and its place sup.
piled by another. The body therefore, re-
quircs constant supplies, at every period Of
its life, of all those things of which its sev
eral parts are built up.

R9nA "REFREsHING PLACE. Nov and
then "specimen" of the by-gone race Of
river boatmen, who have mostly settled down
to farming, will turn up on the Western steam,
boats; and on such occasions their propensi'
ty to trough fun" will break out afresh.-
Some years since, one of them took passage
down for New Orleans, and for several days
he seemed quite despondng for want of ex'
citement. At last the boat put into Napo
leon, in the State of Arkansas, for supplies
Just at the moment there was general fight
extending all along the front Of the town
which, at that time consisted of a single
grocery. The unhappy passenger, fdgetins
about, jerking his feet up and down as if they
were touching hot bricks, inquired of a spec
tator "stanger, is this ere free fight ??
The reply was prompt: "Wall it ar. L
you want to go in, you needn't stand on Ger
emouy." The passenger went in, and soor
after came out again, appearing to be rea
sonably satisfied. Cropping his way on board
his hair half torn out, his coat in tatters, one
eye closed up, and several of his teeth knock
ed into his throat, he sat down on hen-cooE
and soliloquised: $50 this is Ne-po-le-ou, il
it? It's jeest the most refreshing place W.
seen in many day."

DEATH OF r. S. BAILEY. ESQ.


Mr.. R. S. BAILEY, formerly Editor of the
Ledger, died at Lancaster, G. H., on the
Goth of June, aged about 80 years. From
the Ledger of the 25th, ult., we take the
following sketch of his life -
Mr.. Bailey was native of Charleston, S.
G. Soon after arriving at manhood, he as
sumed the management of the Laurensville
Herald, and was the Editor of that paper
In the year 1852, he moved to Lancaster vii
lage and established the Lancaster Ledger.
The establishment Of paper here was re-
garded as an experiment; but he thought
differently, and relying on his own judgment
he assumed not only the editorship, but be-
came its proprietor, with confidence of sue
cess, He did succeed. The Ledger has
been extensively patronized, and it bore a
fair comparison with any country newspaper
As an Editor, he was good writer, and his
pen was always we'll pointed. Whatever he
believed to be right he approved, but what
he believed to be wrong he condemned
He was emphatically an independent man.
He was naturally kind and generous in his
disposition, firm in his attachments and re-
liable in his friendship. The deceased was
not without his faults-fto err is human
but he possessed many noble virtues. His
infrmities were personal, and no man regret
ted or condemned them more than he did
His sentiments were good-they were high
and noble. He was kind and devoted hus-
band and father. Having lost an interesting
child about year ago, and few months
since his only stay and comfortable partner
of his bosom-an afectionate and lovely
wife, it was too much for his weak nature
He is gone let US remember his virtues
and forget his faults. He has left behind
three young and tender children but they
are fortunate in having kind and affection
ate grand mother to care for and take charge
of them. Nee

WHAT'S A BILLION Or, rather, what
conception can we form of such quantity
We may say that a billion is a million of
millions, and can easily represent it thus :
,OO0,OO0,O00,00O But a schoolboy's cal
culation will show how entirely the mind is
incapable of conceiving such numbers. Ifa
person were able to count at the rate of 200
in minute, and to work without intermis-
sion twelve hours in the day, he would take
to couut billion 6,944 ,444 days, or 1926
years $40 days There are living creatures
so minute that a hundred millions of them
might be comprehended in the space Of a
cubic inch. They are supplied with organs
and tissues, nourished by circulating fluids,
which must consist of parts Or atoms, in reck-
oning the size of which we must speak, not
of billions, but perchance of billions of bill
lions. And what is billion of billions p
The number is quadrillion, and can be
easily represented thus: 100000 O,OO0,-
900, 900, 900, 100000; md the same school
boys calculation may be employed to show
that to count a quadrillion, at the rate Of
200 in a minute, would req Ire all the inhab-
itants of the globe, supposing them to be a
thousand millions, to count necessarily for
l9,O25,S75 years or more than 5000 times
the period during which the human race has
been supposed to be in existence

LETTER FROM Mr.. SUMNER 1t would
seem from the following extract of letter
written by Mr.. Sumner to Theodore Parker
of Boston, and read by the latter gentleman
before an anti-slavery convention in that
city, that Mr.. S. intended to pronounce what
should be an insult to South Carolina, and
to inAict in his seat in the Senate personal
indignity on fellow Senator then absent
The extract reads thus:
"The tyranny over us is complete. Will
the people submit to it? When you read
this I shall be saying in the Senate that they
will not. I shall pronounce the most
thorough philippe ever heard in this leg
islative body"
Is it any wonder that with such language
uttered by grave Senators that degraded
men think they too can avenge their own
wrongs? They make up.."the people," and
why should "they,submit" to laws ?-E'e0'

A HoM1cIDE.-Thomas Styron, the over
seer of Mr.. r. M. Fuller Of this district
was, on Wednesday last, the 18th inst
stricken by negro fellow belonging to Mr.
Fuller, from the effects of which he died on
Saturday. 1t seems the deceased was pur
suing the negro, with stick, with which he
was chastising him, and the negro who had
his hoe with him, either for the purpose Of
warding off the blows or destroying his pur
suer, struck backward over his shoulder with
his hoe, and striking the deceased on the
head, lacerated and crushed the scull. The
negro has been lodged in Jail to await his
trial.-EdgefeM hfornaer.

From the Newberry Mirror.

Mr.. EDITOR The following imitation
of Richard Henry Wilde's "My life is like
the Summer Rose," was published last Sum
mer in the Greenville Mountaineer, and was
written by very talented young lady yof thai
District. It has beauty nearly akin to that
from which it is initiated, and deserves g
wider circulation than it may have received
It is perhaps only inferior to the other in that
it isan imitation: n.
AN IMITATION OF RICHARD H. w1LDE's
"MYL1FE IS LIKE THE SUMNER ROSE.
Ny heart is like a broken Lutte,
O'cr whose wild chords the night winds play;
At morning its soft tones are mute,
And hushed, are all its sounds by day
But when the pale, resplendent queen,
OF midnight, mounts her azure throne,
To the sad stars, of silver sheen,
The breezes wake its magic tone
Fen so my heart accents the past,
When nights deep pail is round me cast
MY heart is like dreamland bower,
Where beauteous visions love to dwell,
And mem'ry rears sher little flower"
Baptised with tears, of loves farewell
Mystic and deep, unknown to fame,
Unnotlced by the ousy tnrong,
In quiet beauty still the same,
Where friendship wakes her syren song
Fen so this heart, oft turns away
To those the loved of childhood's day.
NY hearts like q faded flower,
That once in times of earlier bloom,
Seemed gifted with magic power,
Filled with rich fragrance and perfume,
Der which the bright-eyed, fondly bent,
Inhalng oil its hallowed breath;
But when its blooming life was spent,
Cast it unheeded, from the wreath
Fen SO my heart, its light gone by,
Is doomed-in loneliness-to die.

QUEER ToM-Tom Flossfer was the
queerest boy I ever knew. I can't think he
ever cried-I never saw him. If Fleda
found her tulips all rooted up by her pet
puppy, and cried, as little girls will, Tom
was sure to come round the corner, whistling
and say:
"What makes you cry, my infant can
you cry tulips? do you think every sob
makes root or blossom? Here let's try
and right them !"
So he would pluck up the poor flowers,
put their roots into the ground again, whist
ling all the time, make the bed look smooth
and fresh, and take Fleda off to look at a
pretty snake, Or hunt hens nests in the barn.
Neither did he do anything differently in
his own troubles. One day his great kite
snapped the string, and flew away far out of
sight. Tom stood still one moment, and
then turned around to come home Whistling
all the time.
"Why, Tom" said I, ''ain't you sorry to
lose that kite?" -..
eyes! but what's the use? l can't take
more than minute to feel bad; sorry will
not bring the kite back, and I want to make
another"
Just so when he broke his leg.
'Poor Tom,' cried Fleda, "you can't play
any mo-o.o-re !"
"I'm not poor either. You cry for me; ]
don't cry for myself, and have splendid
time to whittle Besides, when get we'll, ]
shall beat every boy in school on the multi
plication table, for say it over till it makes
NE sleepy every time my leg aches"
Tom Flossfer was queer, certainly, but
wish great many more people were queer
that way.-SchoolFel1ow.

I'd. We believe that the institution of Black
Slavery is o Moral, Political and Economical
bessing-that it is right in principle and e1pedi-
ent in policy, and hence should be defended and
extended. It is our purpose to maintain these
propositions in our paper, and to do all in our
power to make Kansas Slave State. In the dis
cussion Of the slavery question, however, we will
endeavor to maintain q conservative position to
present arguments and facts instead of denuncia-
tion and abuse. .1s

be devoted to politics in great degree, yet it will
pay due regard to the Good, the True and Beauti-

If our Weekly Journal meets with cordial
support we intend soon to publish Tri, Weekly,

The editorial department Of the "Journar will
be presided over by S. s. Goode. late of Kentuc-
