The traveller In the wilderness,
Takes nature for his guide,
At night he reads the starry skies,
The moss on the old tree side.
The msriner--the magnet points
His way, the tempest tossed,
In faith, he stills DER oceans vast,
by the compass oft he's lost.
In passing through this busy world.
Haaxious 10 succeed,
Let virtue be yoar leading star,
he noble every deed.
What haven would you have your bark
BE moored, when life be passed:
Thsrekeep your and straight your courss
Until your anchors cast.
BE honest, upright, temperate,
fncased In holy truth,
industrious, persevering,
Read hard, work hard, my youth.
All these will make your capital.
And lasting as your life,
lear not, but onward keep your way.
Avoiding every strife.
The mechaut wants an honest clerk,
The Bank trusty one,
whoever wants an upright man,
WIN seek you as you run.
You have stock OF merchandise,
Not common. now-s-dsy-
Who often sought but seldom found,
Wealth now Is In your way.
But tits not wealth alone you wish,
There is higher prize,
Contend for II, through thorny paths,
Twi' cad you 70 the skies.

THE WAY TO Do IT.-Our cIeav.

er contempory Of the Baton Rouge Ga
Sctte wants to know how we expect
to elect Bell and EverettY Why,
by voting for them, Of course. Our
contemporary does not expect us to
adopt the patent method OF electing
them, by keeping people away from
tho polls through slug shottipg, and
other modern iBstramentalities, we
trust. Better pitch in Mr. Gazette.
One may as we'll go with the popular
tide when that tide flows, az now, in
the right direction.-Buiietin.
Sub rosa, Mr.. Bulletin, we had
rather see your ticket prevail than
any other heretofore talked of.
Could you put feather in the cap
of Mr.. Everett and spurs on Mr..
Bell, as the hero Of single fight
or could you manufacture some
thing new out Of the African ques-
ton, to please oil sides, and show
fair chance Of success, we would
go in for them and do our hand
soonest. Bnt, rs this cannot be done,
the next best thing, will be, to go
for Douglas. We do not like bis
"squatter" doctrine any better
than you do; but admire him for
his bold, consistent and fearless
course. BY his election which is
u fixed fact, if nominated we can
split open the great democratic
party as it is called, which just now
is composed Of an army of Federal
and State Office holders, scattered
along the coast. as well as the in
terror from Bangor in the State of
Maine, to New Orleans, in the
State of Louisiana. This much ac-
complisbed, the people would soon
regain the liberty which has grad
ually fallen into the hands of eau.
cuses and conventions. There would
be then, chance TO organize a new
democratic party on old principles.
A democratic party such as the
times require. a judicious admix.
ture of Americanism, Federalism,
and Republicanism. A democracy
under which the Union might pre-
serve itself, and dispense with the
services of that class of fellows who
one week try to break it up, and
the next, come in for the credit of
saving it. There is an abundance
Of material lying about loose, to
show that Mr.. Douglas, has friends
in the North as well as the South
in the East and in the West.
Let him be nominated, and I'VE can
safely say for East Baton Rouge,
that there will not be more than
a dozen votes against him.

SECOND COMET OF 1860.-Tbis
comet was discovered by Rumker, Of
Hamburg. on the 18th Of April, 1860,
rs faint, ill-defined, nebulous spot Of
light. Having passed its perihelium
at the close ofthe preceding February;
it was, when discovered, receding
from the sun, and its distance from
the earth is now so rapidly diminish
ing that it must soon cease to be visi.
BILE, even by the most powerful tele-
scopes.
For the past ten days clouds and
haze have prevented any search for it
until last evening, when it was detect
ed by Mr.. Sonntag with the great re-
tractor of the Dudley Observatory.
Its elements have been approx.
mately determined, and are found to
resemble those of the second comet
1898. In case future investigation
prove them to be the same, the period
Of revolution would be about sixty six
and a half years, or some fraction of
this quantity. 1t is now in the con-
stellation Auriga and its approximate

If they will do either will warrant satisfaction, both in qualities and price, for we intend to cOnfne our sales such orders, and we fully believe that those who can conveniently comply with our terms will directly find the great advantage oI dealing with house untrammeled by mixed business of cash and credit by which the punctual customer has to be averaged with the slow and doubtful Orders for family or plantation supplies will always have prompt and careful attention, and country mer- chants will find a liberal margin for profits.

Salt, Whisky, Tobacco and all other planta- tion supplies, together with the best and freshest supplies for family use that can be procured. And also a complete stock of Boat and Bar Stores.- And we have made favorable arrangements in Ger many, France, England, and Havana, for the direct importation of the best brands of Wines, Brandies, Sauces Salad Oils, Porter, Ale, Cigars, etc, etc, And such articles as our customers may order and we have notin store (of exactly the kind or brand described, we will procure iiom othermporters or dealers at ash prices and fill their orders literally and carefully.
 Planters and merchants who order their supplies through cotton factors or commission merchants, will do us a favor (and themselves a srryice we be- lieye,) by instructing them to buy of us. No req sonabe factor or agent can or will object.
