Another Abolition Emissary.

The Ron.legged Aboltionist, named T. A.
SALvo, notie.1E last weel: by the Basnwely
.&utinel, US having received q coas of tas aud
feathers near Bamberg, in South Curolfnn,
made his appearance i'll this city few days
aso, and went to work in the new Piano
store, nearly opposite tue Augusta Hotel.
Mayor BLepGEr promptly called on Him as
soon as lie heard "a his presence in the city,
aud was assured that he was presented wi1b
the new suit on account Of having runaway
with fair damsel Of the Palmetto State, and
taken her to I've his wife. The Mayor dis
patched messenger TO Bamberg, to learn
the facts, from Which it appears that he did
express sympathy for the Abolitionists, and
denounced the expression Of indignation
against Brown. Whereupon the Mayor this
morning waited upon SALvo, and informed
him that if he did not leave the city before
night be would be presented with another
suit, and subjected to such other testimonials
as might be deemed appropriate. This is the
way 10 deal with these abolition miscreants-.
letthcm find no place in the South wh,reon
to lay their pcriidiou' heads.
The said SalYo cannot disguise Himself so
as to escape detection. IIo has an iron foot
-is about twenty-five years old-rather

Teach the Women to Save.

There's the secret. A saving woman at
the head of family is the very best savings
bank yet establi.hed-one that receives de-
posits daily and hourly, with no costly ma
chinery to manage it, The idea Of saving is
q pleasant one, and if the women" would
imbibc it once, they would cultivate and ad-
here to it, and thus many when they were
not aware of it, would be laying the tounda-
ton for Il competence, security in stormy
time, and shelter in q rainy day. The W.
man who sees to her own house has large
field to save in, and the best way to make
her comprehend it is for her 10 keep an ac-
count OF current expenses. Probably not
one wife in ten has all idea how much are the
expenditures of herself or family. Where
from one or two thousand dollars are expend-
ell annually there is chance TO save some
tLing, il the attempt is puly made. Let the
housewife take the idea-act upon it-and
strive over it-nn,l she will save many dol
lars-prrhap, hundrods-where before she
thought it impossible. This is d duty-not q
prompting Of avarce-a moral obligation
that rests upon all-upnn "the women" as
we'll as the men; but it is duty, We are
sorry to say, that is cultivated very little,
even aiming those who p cach the most, and
regard themselves rs examples in most mat
tiers. "Teach tho women to save" is gnod
enough maxim to be inserted in tue next
edition of "Poor Richards Almanac"

Quarreling between husband and wife is
altogether out Of place, out Of character, and
it is high time it should go out of fashion.
No man should speak cross TO his wife; what
ever he hns to say to her should be said in q
kind and gentle manner, or not at all. Moth
ing can make man appear meancr than to
find fault with his wife in the presence Of a
third person. / could never afterwards think
we'll of any one who had done such thing.
Very true some women are great trial TO
their husbands, appear to have no capacity
for any thing useful, and prove of little more
utility than an automaton in household.
They are pretty and graceful before marriage,
almost fascinating,-cross 'aud pcevish after
marriage, whenever things don't go altogether
to their taste. For instance, if the husband
does not give them money su.l:cicntt to crafty
all their wants, real aud imaginary, the very
mischief is to pay. The great wonder is why
will men of sound sense marry such women
Surely any one may guess pretty accurately,
even before marriage, what girls tastes and
habits are.
But if men will persist in selecting dolls for
life partners; who will spend all the money
they can get, and comb out their husbands
heads occasionally with thrce-legged stool,
it is no concern of mine. can only repeat
what have already said, !" be wise in time. !"
I admit that all women are apt to be lit.
tic fond of attention; little attention go great
way with us. For instance, present on a
birthday or some anniversary. shall never
forget how it made my heart beat when Mr..
Lavender came in one day and said, Have
you forgotten? This is the tenth anniversary
of our marriage" and taking my hand placed
upon the third finger plain gold ring, with
as much love aud feeling as he had placed the
wedding ring there ten years previous, and
then added, Z" L intend placing an additional
ring there every tenth year, as long as we
both live, and We shall be certain to know
when the time Of our golden wedding arrives"
Idont expect in the natural course of events,
to live to celebrate the fftieth anniversary of
my marriage, or golden wedding, as it is
termed, but whenever LIDO die, let it be sooner
or later, shall certainly die in the belief that
the honeymoon should last ones lifetime.

ApALocuE.-A poor laborer, in certain

escaped the turmois of existence, presented
himself at the gates of Heaven where nc
found he had been preceded by rich man
OF the same locality, who had just died, and
having previously knocked, had been admit
ted by the Apostle Peter. The laborcr, who
stood without, was enchanted by the ravish-
ing sounds Of singing, rejoicing and sweet
music which appeared to hail the entrance Of
the Dives and having knocked in his turn,
was also admitted.
But what was bis astonishment at finding
silence, where seraphic sounds had so lately
been joyou,ly uttered

{" when the rich man entered, heard music
and singing; is there, thon, the same distinc-
ton between rich and poor in heaven al on

"Nut at all,n replied the Apostle, but
the poor como to heaven every day, whereas,
it is scarcely one in hundred years that
rich man gains admission"

the officers of the boat that Paducah was quite
a brisk little town. The officer remarked that
he never thought so.
"Well, Sir, says tho deck passenger, you
may rely upon it that you are mistaken, for
found it to be a very brisk little place, and one
where business is done with great dispatch;
