An Embarrassing Situation.

A few nights ago, says the Wheeling Iu
teltigencer, gallant young gentleman Of
ofthat city called upon one Of his lady
friends, who resides in the suburbs. In
front Of the house there is barkless poplav
polar pole, erected in honor of one of the
candidates, at the late Presidential election.
The father of the young lady keeps not
very ornamental but still useful and very
ferocious bulldog, who IS very jealous of his
masters possessions, and very suspicious of
strangers. Upon the approach of our gallant
friend, instead Of being received with open
arms, as he doubtless expected, he, was TO-
ceivcd by the dog with open jaws and was
compelled to ''coon it'' up the poplar pole in
a hurry, and in so doing tore his store
clothes in such manner as not to be pre-
sentable in first circles. He clung to the
pole like bat, and returned the affection
ate gaze of the dog, until a gentleman came
out and drove the canine away. The gen.
tlernan came down quite crcstfallen, and
was compelled to suffer the mortifica-
tion of declining to enter the house OFT
account of the rent the envious pole had

Pickisl. up a Pin.

A young man once came with letters of
accommodation to large banking establish
ment He called on the gentleman who was at
the head of it, full ofhope and confidence that
he should obtain employment. The gentleman
heard what he had to say, looked over his
letters hastily, and then handed them back
to him, saying, "We've nothing for you to
do, SIR" The young man felt his heart sink
within him. He was ready to burst into
tears. But there was no help for it, so he
made his bow and retired. AS he was
passing in front of the building, there was a
pin lying on the pavement. He stopped
down, picked it up, and then stuck it care
fully under the bosom of his coat. The
gentleman with whom he had just been
speaking was standing at the window, and
saw what took place. In an instant
the thought occurred to him that the
young man who had snbh habits Of careful
ness as to stop in such moment of disap-
pointment and pick up pin would make a
useful business man. He sent Immediately
and called him back He gave him a hum
BILE situation in his establishment. From
that he rose by degrees, till he became the
principal PARTNER in the concern, and even
tually man of immense wealth and the chief
banker in Paris. So much for good, careful
habits

Bankruptcy illustrated.

1.-Two merchants were standing in Wal
street discoursing on bankruptcy, when
one Of them saw real live Yankee lumber
ing down street with knife and stick in
his hands.
''Now for scmc sport said one Of the
merchants.
"We'll ask his opinion on bankruptcy, o,
rather his ideas" lie hailed the Yankee
with,
"llallo, friend, can you tell us the mean,
ing of bankruptcy
"Well, reckon kin and Skin me if
don't"
"Please explain"
"Well, you must fust lend me five for
about three minutes"
''Here it is, now proceed
"Well, now, owe Xcke Smith five cents,
Sam Bromn the tailor, five dollars for this
ere coat, and you Ave-"
"Well," said the merchant, "now give me
my Ave."
'AOh, git eout, I'm bankrupt, and you
come in for share with the rest" and he
left the astonished merchant to whistle for
his five"

Charleston HarbOr.

The noble steamer Columbia has met with
another mishap. having been detained ever
since Saturday morning in the offing, wait
ing for the winls and tides. She has been
absent now five days from New York. Her
passengers came up to town in tug, this
afternoon. Here is an excellent opportunity
for me to give some information which may
be of value to your merchant princes. Several
New York papers have stated very glibly
that the distractions on the bar were all
removed, and that it was now all very plain
sailing. Let me assure them that they show
lamentable ignorance of the true facts
If they doubt, let them send down few
fine ships, and they will find that they will
add to the artificial barriers stil there, in
very speedy manner. When the wrecks
were sunk they were filled with stone, and
the masts cut off below the water. 1t is
absurd to suppose that such solid masses
can be moved by one gale, or even a hundred.
They will remain there for years, and an
swer their "shut-out-y -your-war-v r-vcssel-policy"
most admirably. Another point: The New
York merchants who have done so much
for the trade of Charleston, and more par
ticularly, if may be allowed to particularize,
the eminent house Of Spafford, Tielston &
Co., ought to know that the three other
channels that lead to this city have at the
best seldom more than fourteen feet of water
at flood tide, and if ships or steamers draw
thirteen feet six inches, their margin is very
small unless the weather is very favorable.

The Great Floating Battery at
New KerN.

~ large Amount of war matrial has been
shipped from Pittsburgh destined for the''cel-
brated Stevens Floating Battery, New York,
which has been in course of construction
several years, and will be located at the "Nar-
rows" near that city. The whole amount of
shell furnished, was one hundred and fifteen
tons. The vessel was built under the direc-
ton Of Robert l.. Stevens. 1t is about four
hundred feet in length, with about fifty feet
beam being next to the largest vessel of
which keel has yet been laid. Notwith-
standing her great size, she will draw but
light amount OF water The hull of the
vessel is built of iron plates, about three.
fourths of an inch in thickness, nearly eight
feet in length and obout two feet in width.
They are fastened together by rivits placed
ut about the distance of an inch and a half
of each other The rivits below the water.
line are smooth-hcaded, so that they will
offer no resistance TO the vessels progress
through the water, while those above the
water-mark, protrude from the vessels side
over half an inch, terminating in sharp
point. 1t is said, when completed, there
will be nine shells, or plates Of iron, with
space between, making wall twenty-seven
inches in thickness. Being sharp at the
bow, she can be used tor cutting vessel in
two. She was designed to carry thirty
guns Of the heaviest callibrc on her gum
deck, and mount four Palxhan guns on her
spar deck, and furnaces for heating red hot
shot, were to be placed in different parts of
the ship. From the fact that she is supplied
now with her material, it is probable that
she is efficiently completed to be ready for

Letter from Charleston.

The Courier des Etats Unis, whose sym.
sympathies have been on the side of the
Secesslonists contains lettcr dated Charles
ton, FEBRUARY 14th, from which we translate
the following:
"If Diderot was right attributing the versa
tile character OF hia ccuntrymen to the fire.
quent chans res in the atmosphere, it is not
surprising that public opinion at Charleston
changes several times day; it corresponds
in this to the weather, which is here very
variable. In the morning, before the fog is
cleared away, Eve must have Fort Sumter,
cost what it may; the lives Of hundreds of
our citizens, our friends, our relationa, even
our children are not to be put in the bal
ance against the shame that attends
every day Of delay" Then the most
exaggerated rumors are circulated as to
the measures taken, the orders sectretly
given, &c.
"By noon, when the sun has absorbed the
mist, and the uncertain sun leaves it undeci.
ded whether there is to be rain or sunshine,
we regard all the warlke rumors of the
morning as doubtful, and wait for their con-
firmation by some dispatch from Washing
ton or soma order from the Governor. AS
the former are generally cqualed in insignifi-
canoe only by the latter, we reach the end
of the day in that condition of uncei tainity
which has, as it were, chloroformed the two
parties for the last two months.
Nevertheless, the Mercury, tlat fire.
brand of civil war, serves up every morning
for the fictitious appetites Of its readers
some little dishes (entreflets), seasoned with
words efficiently inhammatory to make this
suspense that we have endured since the
9th Of November intolerable. So pass the
days, the weeks, the months. We are re
duced to reports.
Accept them as such, for tomorrow they
may be false, ifthey do no, already contra
dict themselves.
''rhus, on Monday the wind was full of
war. This week was to be decisive
as to the possession of Sumter. Wednesday
was the day fixed; the hour is kept secret.
But to-day Thursday it is announced that
it is from the Congress Of the New Confed-
eracy, which is invested with the exc
cutive power Of the State composing it,
that the order for attack must emanate,
ifattack there is that is to say, according
to all probability, it is postponed indefinite

"The CharleStonians will have all the
time that is necessary for finishing their
floating battery, not far advanced as yet,
and their suddenly improvise warriors have
chance of becoming something else than
amateur soldiers.
However warlike the minds. however
peaceful the last news, however designed
the inhabitants, it is high time that this
state of effervescence was brought to an
end.
Commercial affairs have received blow
at Charleston from which they will recover
with difficulty. South Carolina, which has

The Dancing Girls Ol Java.

The Hon. Frank Hall, in letter from
Java, states that zone evening troup Of
dancing girls came to the hotel, accompain-
ed by native band. The dancing girls,
three in number, were from the interior Of
the island, of small stature and slight forms,
eighteen or tweuty years old. Their dress
was like that of the other females, though
gay in color, the satang being made Of red
and blue. The sash was drawn tightly
around the body, that the rounded
outlines of the form might not be lost
Around the waist was cincture, overlaid
with silver leaf, tinsel bracelets on their
arms, and wreaths of fragrant leaves en-
twined with their dark hair. Lights were
brought from the house, and the dancers
began their evolutions on the crushed coral
avenue in front The dance was little else
than forward and backward movement
with the feet, accompanied by swaying
motion Of the body, in accord with the mu-
sic. Each dancer carried fan, which vas
kept in constant motion, not so much for
cooling purposes as graceful adjunct Of
this Javancse ballet. Each one sang, in
turn, unknown words and indescribahle
tunes, covering her face as she sang, with
her fan, and marking the time with her lit
tie feet and swaying body. These Java
nese men and women have small hands and
feet Of symmetrical shape. The band was
led by native Of solemn countenance, with
his one- -str:ngei fiddle brazen gong did
good duty in lieu of a brass drum; another
beat an oblong wooden drum, and yet an
other had before him three cymbals, which
he beat with wooden mallet. Both songs
and music were, for the most part, rude
enough, though at times they succeeded in
pl loduciHg strains Of pleasant melody. The
soft, flowing Mayleyan tongue has been
very aptly called the italian Of the East
but these girls sang in native Javanese di
alcct."

A New Anecdolc Of Garibaldi.
A correspondent Of the ". Y. Independent,
writing from Europe, says:

A correspondent ofthe " Y. Independent,
writing from Europe, says:
"Whilc on the steamer from Naples to
Alexandria, had frequent conversations
with very intelligent Italian gentleman,
who is honored in possessing the respect and
esteem of Garibaldi He stated that on go.
ing to Caprera to visit Garibaldi, after a
separation Of seven years, the General i'll
stantv recognized him as one of the friends
who had shared his exile in America. He
soon inquired, "How is Muccei, my old en-
ployer on Statan Island ~ Receiving a
favorable answer to his question, Garicaldi
next asked, is his business prosperous -
On being answered that the manufacture of
the new diaphanous candles was beginning
to prove profitable, Garihald quickly re
sponied, Il am glad of it; for when we used
to make candles together we had to pay
eleven cents pound. OF course we could
not make money under those circumstances
Garibadi then produced a candle, which he
stated to be ohe of box of diaphanous can
dies which his old friend Muccei had present
ed to him. This scene occurred in the pres
ence of the French Consul, the Governor Of
the neighboring island, and one of his asso-
ciates. Not many eminent public men
would have referred to their folmer humble
labors in such frank, unaffected manner.
Indeed, after seeing thousands of Garibaldi
ans, and conversing with many of the Italian,
English, and Hungarian volunteers, can
truly state that all unite in tcstifyng that
the simplicity of Garibaldi's character is
equalled only by its purity"

For the Courier.
TO OUR Two BABES IN HEAVEN

BY J. u. @.
We see thee n our dreams, babes,
In the vision OF the night;
Thy forms so long departed,
Comes dancing in the lights.
We feel thy tiny h,nds. babes,
Upon our bosOms prest;
And thy little heads OF waving curls,
Sinks soothngly to rest.
The music Of thy gentle words
Fall softly on our ear,
In the sweet lisping tones
We loved so much to hear.
You were our earthly idols,
We loved you next to God,
We strive to clasp ;hee closer
'Tis then we see the rod.
We 'waken from our dreams, babes,
To find that thou art dead,
And our bosoms no more can be
pillow for thy heads
Nor thy little hands so loving,
Within our own be prest.
For thou art gone, forever gone,
To thy eternal rest.
We miss thee much, darling ones,
And fountains of tears We shed,
Yet we are not without hope,
For our little ones now dead.
For he who said. "ferbd item not,
Let little children come,"
And blessed nd took them in his arms,
Has found for thee home.
We shall meet a, ain, babes,
When toll and strife are o'er,
For we are gliding swiftly on
To Jordans pearly shore,
Where thee our beloved ones
Will meet us free from pain;
Where death has no more power
To sever us again.

The Huntsville (Alabama) Indepenaeat of

The Huntsville Alabama) Indepenaent of
February 10th comments as follows:
"With deep sorrow, and the most sad for
bolings for her future, we are forced to an
nounce that our sister State, Tennessee, has
resolved not to call even Convention other
people in the present crisis. Her Legisla-
ture must now see tho folly Of admitting
the question Of Conceatioa or no Conreatioa
to the popular rote. Thousands upon thou
sands Of her people did not and could not
know whether there was any necessity for
calling q Convention or not"
There is disclosed the very bulwark Of
Secession keeping the question from the
people.
