MONDAY EVENING, MARCH Is. n

SMART CHAPs.-We have very smart
boys in this town, says contemporary,
one in particular, who was called UP the
other day by the pedagogue to give some
account of his absence, and to give some
evidence, if possible, of progress in his
studies.
"Where was you yesterday, you ras-
CALI"
81 was out in the field alone" :,
"What were you doing in the held' sir:
picking berries?' 49,,
mo. sir | was out alone by myself"
.sWell: but what were you doing?"
ri was medtatlng.
"Meditating, you rascal, upon whatT'
81 was meditating what Ia be when
| got to be growed up-prlnter, doctor,
lawyer, or school-master, and took the
field for it?"
Brave boy! What was your conclu-
sion2'
Thought as how I'd be a school
master, they lives easy--like to give lick
ms, aud teach the young idea what to
shoot at.
"Precious boyl How did y-ou progress
in your studies?"
"Well."
"Let me see; how many niils make {
cent?"
Don't know but guess it makes {
good many cents to make q mill, if they
am built of ST ne.

GLAD TO HEAR 1--WE learn from the
Richmond Dispatch that the late raid Of cid
John Brown has so far opened the eyes of
the people of Virginia, as that the following
factories will soon be in operation . For ma
king oil cloth-shoes and boots-hats, caps,
&c.,-ready-made c~lothing-straw bonnets-
sewing maehines-buckets tubs, caoshes pins,
c.,-willow-ware-furniture-br castings
steam fire engines-umbrellas and parasols
stoves and grates-and other articles less
costly, but equally as necessary to- the gen.
eral comfort.
D~ANvILLE-The Semi-weekly Transcripts
and the Republican have been combined into
the Semi Weekly Appeal. Danville is repre-
sented as in q fourishing and growing con-
dition, and we agree with the Appeal that in
all cities and towns the press is one grand Ell,
ement of prosperity, and people at a distance
regulate their opinions of a place by the in
formation afforded by the newspapers pub
lished there.
Me- From and after this date till the. close
of the present volume, and longer if patron
age will justify it, the Beaufort Journal will
be published semi-weekly, each Wednesday
and Saturday. Much greater attention will
be paid to the editorial department, than has
been possible heretofore, and the Proprietous
rely upon a consequent increase of subscri-
bers for the new volume to in
March.
HORRIBLE MuRDER-A MASTER KILLED AND
BURNED BY HIS SLAvEs.-We learn that on
Monday last DR.. VIM. Croxton, a highly in
telligent citizen of Essex county, had occa
sion to correct a servant woman for some
offence, but did so in a mild and gentle man
ner. This fact enraged a negro man, WHIT
vowed to have revenge, but at the time CAV,
his master no intimation of his intention
On Wednesday last, whilst one of the ser
wants was engaged in grinding a cutting
knife, DIR. Croxton walked to where he was
and whilst looking on without suspectinl
danger, another servant stepped behind him
gave him q violent blow upon the back 0
the head, which felled him to .he ground
and then dispatched him. The two thel
dragged him behind the barn, and kindlinI
a fire, placed his body on it and burned it,
They next cut the skirts of the saddle upo
his riding-horse and then turned the hors
loose, expecting to crate the impression tina
he had been attacked on the road and mui
dered. When the Doctor was missing, hi
friends instituted a search for him, and i
the pile of ashes near the barn discovere
two or three of his fingers and a portion {
one of his feet. The murder has caused gres
excitement in the neighborhood in which
was committed. -Richmond Dispatch.

Our Lady Visitors.

The advantage Of Woman's cooperation
with her brothers in promoting the beneyo-
lent and r~eformatory objects Of our Order,
are so well known and appreciated in those
Divisions where this cooperation has been
secured, that it is unnecessary for US to say
a word to them in its behalf; but we would
fain persuade those Divisions, if there be any,
that have not yet had Woman in their Di-
vision rooms, to at orce secure her aid
And as a stimuli to urge the matter upon
their lady friends, we will state a fact that
speaks volumes on the subject:
In speaking Of the increase in the member
ship within his jurisdiction, the Grand Scribe
of Maryland says, ''and here let me call your
attention to one fact, that the whole Of this
gain, with but one exception, is in those Divis-
ions admitting ladies-and would to God |
could urge upon all, this important branch Of
our glorious Order. None rejoiced more than
], when woman was invited to share with us
the tolls of the conflict and the triumphs Of
victory ; for upon her has ever fallen the Sc
verify Of this curse of intemperance. Her
home has been made desolate ; her heart
broken and the infamy of the drunkard has
chung to her and her children. We have
asked her to labor in our cause ; she has
responded to the call, and thousands 10Y
