WILLIS ON SOUTHERN Soc1ETY.-ln
recent leading article for the Home Jour
nal, Willis thus laments over the "es-
arrangement of the South y"
Politics, trade and sectional differences
quite out of the question (and "News "
knows these branches of the question are
sufficiently discussed in the herpapers)
we are sustaining Il great social loss in
the arrangement of the South. In all
the larger and more refined circles of our
American society-at Saratoga and New
port, in our gayeties of the cities, and on
our routes of fashionable travel and resort
the Southerners are unquestionaby the
class most sought and admired as "the
incest people" 1t would be hard to find
cultivated "society man," probably,
anywhere at the North, who does not
number many of his most valued friends
and pleasantest acquaintances in this
class. Explain it by what social alchemy
YOU please, too, the infusion Of the South
ern amalgam in any alembic of polltenoss
at the North, exceedingly improves tho
mctal-partly, no doubt, from the corrcc-
tive given by the South tothe moro angu-
lar angular and calculating qualities OF
the North. The American travellers who
shine most at foreign courts and in for
eign society, arc from the South. They
arc, in fact, our country's natural patri.
clans. And-abused though they are, al
distance, by some of the Northern
newspapers as an offensive oligarchy :
the tribute of preference and admlra.
ton is paid to them, by these very
Northcrners, at this very time, whenever
they comepersonalIy in contact. And So
with all the momentous issues" of seces.
sion left to more grcgarious discussion,
may wc'not fairly own, that, individually
Northern men arc rcgrctting exceedingly
the social estrdngenlent Of the South?

TIE NEGOTIATIONS.

About ten o'clock, boat bearing q
white flag came from Fort Sumter to-
wards the city. On its arrival at the
wharf it was found to contain Lieut.. Hall
of the garrison of Fort Sumter, with dc,
spatchcs for the Governor Of the State
The presence Of this officer in the city
owing to the events Of the morning, gave
rise to considerable excitement, and spec
ulation was rife as to the object of his Wis.
it. During his interview with she Gov
crnor the public curiosity rose to the high
est pitch. but it was two o'clock before the
purport Of his communication was made
public. When the people learned that
Major Anderson had sent to inquire wheth
or firing at Morris Island was sanctioned
by the Governor, that the Governor hdd
replied in the Affirmative, and that Major
Anderson bad thcrcupon signifed his in
tention OF cutting off allcommunication by
water between the city and our forts, the
expressions of Indignation were deeI
and universal. The most active meas
ures were Immediately set on foot to
strengthen the forccsat the various points
about the harbor, and people were every
where discussing how the threatened at
front and injury should be resented. On
his return Lieut.. Hall was escorted to
his boat by General Suber and Lieutenant
Gibbes.

A GRACEFUL COMPLIMENT To WIFE
The following neat and beautiful reply
was made by the late Daniel O'Connell,
in reponse to toast given in compli-
mcnt to his wife, who was the object Of
his long and affectonate attachment
1t was given at political meeting. The
English language could not furnish any
thing more touchingly tender and grace
full:
"Therc are some topics Of so sacred
and sweet nature that they may be
comprchended by those who are happy,
but they cannot be possibly described by
any human being. All that shall do is
to thank you in the name Of her who was
the disintcrcsted choice of my early
youth; who was the cvcr-cheerful COM
panion of my manly years; and who is
the sweetest solacc of that . scar and ycl-
low leaf age at which l have arrived.
In her name l thank you; and this you
may readily believe. for experience, |
think, will show to us all that man cannot
battle and struggle with the malignant
enemies of his country, unless his nest at
home is warm and comfortablc-unless
the honey Of human life is commended by
Il hand that he loves

TRUE LIFE.-The mere lapse Of years
is not life. TO eat and drink and sleep );
to be exposed to darkness and to light
to pace around the mill of habit: and turn
the wheel of wealth; to make reason onl'
book-kceper, and turn thought into i'm
plements Of tradc-this is not life. In all
this, but poor fraction Of the conscious
ness of humanity is awakened and the
sanctities still slumber which make it
most worth while to be. True love,
knowledge, beauty, goodness and faith
alone can give vitality to the mechanism
of existence. The laugh of mirth, which
vibratcs through the tears which freshen
the dry wastes within; the music that
brings childhood back; the prayer that
calls us near; the doubt which makes lis
mediate; the death which startlcs us
with mystery; the hardship that forces
to struggle; the anxiety that ends in
trust-thesc arc the true nourishments
of our natural being.

Thus matters stood until halfpast 6
o'clock, when the white flag was again
seen coming from Fort Sumter. This
time the communication of Major Andcr-
son, brought by Lieut.. Talbot, was of a
less mcnacing character 1t briefly stated
that he designed deiering for the present
the course indicated in his note of the
morning, until the arrival from Washing
ton of the Instructions he might receive
fromh his Government, and asked safe con-
duct for his bearer Of dispatches.

ECcENTRIc1TY OF GENIUs.--Some ten
years ago there lived on the st. Charles
road, nine or ten miles from st. Louis q
family by the name of Stringer The old
est son. Jacob, or Jake Stringer, as he
was called, was most eccentric genius,
and took every occasion to show his odd
ness. One day, while sitting before the
fire, whiting a shingle, his mother said
to him: Jake want you to. go down
to the store, (about half mile distant,)
and get a quarters worth cf tea, and q
Quarters worth of sugar and quar-
tcr's worth of soap. Now, mind what
1 tell you, Jake, and be quick about
it." Jake roused himself up, brushed the
whittlings from bis lap, and started forth
on his errand, clothed in his fustian
brecches, and vest Of the same material,
and thick woolcn shirt. without any
coat. He did not return that day, and
his mother waited long and anNiously
for her tea, sugar and soap, but IN
vain. Ten years passed by and
no tidings were heard of the crrand boy.
As the family were sitting down at their
Thanksgiving dinner. the door opened,
and in came tall, moustachcd, good
looking man, with some bundles in his
hand. 1t was Jake stringcr. All of the
family sprung to their feet in astonish-
mcnt, but the mother and Jake were pei.
fectly cool "Mother" said Jake, here's
your tea, sugar, and soap" "Lay them
down on the table, and eat your dinner
said Mrs Stringer. "You ought to be
whipped, Jake, for being gone so long"
