Mr.. Beecher, the well-known 81. w., says
!" Travelling is very much like eating crabs.
You have much shell, many claws, and little
meat. But to read of travels is to have your
crabs served up to you, without the trouble of
opening OF extracting" He is in the country,
and tells his Independent readers that ~
1t may be of some comfort to you to know
that birds are nearly through their song season.
1t is only in maidenhood and marriage that
they sing. Like many other pretty creatures
upon whose musical education great pains have
been bestowed, birds, after they go to house
keeping, and have children to bring up, forget
to play much, and quite neglect al ths4 &C
complshments. The dear little spaxfow-the
song sparrow-is an exception. This little
homely bird sings right through the year, in
green leaf, yellow Leaf, and scar leaf"

SLAVE MARRIAGEs.-A very inter
esting report has inst been subm tied
by the convention OF the South Caro-
lima Episcopal church, at their session
in respect to the marriage OF slaves
The following is the substance Of the
decision arrived at by the committee /;
The relation of husband and wife is
declared to be divine institution, and
to be equally binding on the slave as
on the master. The Injunction Of the
Savior, forbiddiug the separation of
husband and wife is obligatory on the
master, and every master should so
regulate the disposal Of the slave as
not toinfringe on the divine injunction.
Voluntary abandonment on the part of
married slave ought to come within
the same rule as in the case Of q free
person bat when the abandonment is
involuntary, and caused by circums
stances without the control Of the par
ties, the refusal to grant a second
marriage would often produce mnch
evil and hardship; bnt in giving its
sanction to such second marriage, the
Convention would do so in the quail
fed language Of the Apostle =,
"If they cannot contain, let them
marry; for it is better to marry than
to burn" ~
The report makes the remarkable
statement that there is no instance an
South Carolina Of a legal divorce. :.

An Editorial Letter,

When l receive q letter from my
friend, the editor, am able, by an in
tense application Of attention for few
minutes, to make ont ito general drift
40 meaning. The difficulty in the way
Of grasping the entire sense does not
arise from any. obscurity Of style, but
wholly from the remarkable nature Of
the penmaushlp. And after gaining
the general bearing Of the document,
l am we'll aware that there are many
recesses and hooks of meaning which
will not be reached but after repeated
persuals. What appears at first .
flourish may gradually assume the form
of an important clause of . sentence.
materially modifying its force. What
appears at present q blot may turn out
to be anything whatever what at
present looks like No, many prove to
have stood for yes. l think sympa-
thetically Of the worthy father of DIR.
Chalmers. When he received his
weekly or fortnightly letter from his
distinguished son, he carefully locked
it up. By the time little store had
accumulated, bis son came to pay him
. visit and then he broke all the
seals, aud got the writer Of the letters
to read them.

the charges preferred by the black re-
publicans against the general govern
ment, Of ext, sysgance in the disburse-
ment Of the revenue Of the country.
Sadly in want Of some plausible pre-
teuce for opposing the Democratic
party, they seized upon the Revision
Of business caused BY previous extrav--
sQancs, and sought to make the gov
eminent responsible for q falling OF OF
the revenues matter over which 1t
had no control. That unprincipled
party also charged the President with
extravaganza in making appropriations
when they knew, in their own souls,
that not dollar of the public treasure
could be expended unless in strict con-
formity to 40 act of Congress. But
they have been allowed to have their
own way, and to make what little
capital they could out Of that matter.
Now, however, q change seems to be
coming over tie spirit Of their dream.
Business, not only in this country, but
oil over the world, has revived Con
scquentIy the revenue of the country,
especially that derived from importa-
tions, has considerably increased, and
there is now strong probability that
during the next two years the receipts
into the national treasury will SO far
exceed the expenditures Of government
as to pay off our indebtedness and
leave large surplus on hand. That
will be sad affair for the Opposition !;
for they never thrive on success-they
only take comfort in being miserable.
But VIC submit to every decent man
out of Jail, that as they have charged
the Democracy with all the evils Of
the crisis through which we have
passed, they ought now and hereafter
to give US credit for some of the bene-
fits resulting from a revival of business
and a general state Of prosperity. But
those screechers and shriekers will do
no such thing. They would complain
if they we're going to be hung. Not
many years hence the national treasury
will be filed to OVERLOOKING, and then
those wretched individuals will begin
to croak again abont the danger OF
too much money in the hands Of the
Government And then they will
bring forth, in . third or fourth resur-
rection, some of their old plans for in.
ternal improvements, and cry out, like
so many acknowledgements the danger
of such amonstrous accumulations. 1t
is no easy task to please those Black
