How Bad you Look.

There is a class of people in the world
styled by some, Jobs cumtorters who are
constantly administering words of consolation
and encouragement to the sick and afflicted.
sirsilur TO those which stand at the head of this
article" HoW bad yOu look" II these peo-
pie only knew the amount OF injury, not TO say
misery they inf ct upon those TO whom thew
thus address their remarks, they would pc -haps,
from very charity Of feeling, desst from The
practice.
How dsspriting it falls upon the sensibilities
of the poor convalescent, after a painful and
protracted Illness TO be told at every street cor.
uer that he looks bad" Energence from the
bed of suffering is TO him a matter of thankful
ness and Joy; and as he slowly and cautiously
moves his weak and disease wrecked frame
along, he expects to receive words of encour-
agement rather than sentences of despair and
doubt, such as the " how bad you look sympa.
lhlsers are pouring through his ear into his very
soul, as it were, to depress and crush his hopes
and expectations OF health and strength. Such
language addressed to a recovering invalid
whose nervous system is already unstrung by
disease, is a most heartless exercise of terms.
calculated to dampen his hopes and throw him
tack again upon the bed of suffering. Conyer-
sation which tends TO buoy up the spirit and
create pleasant Impressions of speedy health
and vigor would be of much more advantage tc
the invalid, and act more benefcially upon his
system than perhaps half the medicine be may
have previously taken.-Del Journal.

Servile Instructions.

Fortunately for our country, notwithstanding
the large number of negroes held in bondage iu
the Southern States, the number of servie in
sunections which have occurred has been very
small, their rami6cations limited in extent, and
their suppression remarkably prompt.
10 1881 an insurrection broke out in the
county Of Southampton. on the southern borders
Of Virginia. 1t occasioned greater loss of life
among the whites, and greater CONSERVATION
than any other insurreciionary movement among
the negroes ever made in this country. Twelve
families aud over sixty persons were murdered
at this insurrection.
About 1895 another extensive plot was dis
covered, with which the notorious desperate
and miscreant, Murrell, was closely associated.
and the supposed leader. A few men in nearly
all the Southern States were believed to be
connected with this conspiracy; but as they
we're nearly all villains Of the deepest dye their
principal object was probably pillage, in the
midst of the confusion and CONSERVATION they
expected to create.
In 1856 great alarm was occasioned in vari
Gus portions OF the South by rumors of anothe
seryile insurrection. Many negroes were ar
rested and severely punished, and several white
men were shot for their alleged participation
In the movement, but no very serious harm wa
done to the whites.

The South will come here indignant, the North
defiant; but | am not without hope that the
sympathetic spirit which has grown out of the
late lnsurrection, will, so far from adding
to the excitement, teach ell sides lesson of
torbearance and unity. When the free States
Indignantly frown upon the raid of Brown and
his Illfated followers, 1t is, think, no time for
those of the South to indulge in acrimonious
threats and denuncations. "Out of the nettle
