ABBEVIILE SOUTH CAROLINA, MORNING,
EXHAUSTION OF TALK.

How long the lamp Of conversation holds
out to burn, between two persons only, is
curiousiy set down in the following passages
from Count Goufallionier's account Of his
imprisonmcut-"ITfteen years existed
in dungeon ten feet squire! During six
years had Il companion; during nino l
was alone? Inever could rightly distinguish
the facefof him who shared my captivity,
in tho eternal twilight of our cell. The
first year wc talked necessarily together;
we related our past livcs-our joys for ever
gone-ovcr and over again. The next year
we communicated TO each other our thoughts
and ideas on ali subjects. The third year
we had 10 IDEAS to communicate we were
beginning to lose the power Of reilection.'
The fourth, at the interval of month or
So, VIC would open our lips to ask each if
it were possible that the world went on rs
gay and busting as when we formed a por-

The sixth he was taken away-I never
knew where, to execution or liberty. But
was glad when he was gone; even soli-
tudc was better than the pale, vacant face.
One day (t must have been year or two
after NY companion left meg the dungeon
door was opened, whence proceedinyI knew
not, the following words wcro uttered "Dy
order of his Imperial Majesty, intimate
toyou that your wife died year ago"
Then the door was shut, and heard no
more 'hey had but flung this great agony
upon me, and left inc alone with it."

SHEEP CCLruEE.-The rearing of sheep
should be encouraged, not only for the
value of the fleece. but to supply the mar
kets of the State with choice mutton and
lamb-a healthy and coveted diet. At
present there is great demand for wool
The Salnda Factory, near Columbia, owned
bp James G. GiJbes & Co., is now engaged
in the manufacture Of woolens and so plen-
tiful arc the orders for this description Of
goods-better and cheaper than the impor-
ted or domestic articles made beyond our
'imlts-that they caunot supply them, from
the want Of home grown wool. They dis
seminated extensively the knowledge that
they would buy any quantity, but thus far
only about 10000 pounds had been offered.
In this condition of things, and when it is
certain, that ether wooden machinery would
be erected and operated, it bchooves the
Legislature to enact such protective laws
will promote wool-growing. Protection is
needed, but that species Of protection de-
mshded by Nor,hren manufactures. All
that is asked is. that a prohibitory law be
enacted in relation to dogs, SO that sheep
ownc's may be protected in their property.
Every district in the State is interested in
this matter, and worthless ours, kept in
many instances by negroes, should not be
allowed TO retard the development of
branch ofhusbandry SO well able to lift our
State out Of dependence on the North. Let
the peoples Representatives take the matter
in hand, and enact the proper laws at the
next or succeeding session of the Lcgisla-
turc.-,SpartaaJury Spartan.
