A WORD TO THE YOUNG-DANCING

1t has been well said that the motto of America
is "upward and onward" and without the most
profound premeditation (if the motto is correct,
persons are unable to see why the people, as Il
body, do not move morally, with greater stride,
toward perfection of character. 1t will be seen
that all those things which impede the progress of
mankind to perfection of character are entirely un-
necessary, and are indulged in merely to crafty
some morbid desire | would not argue that every
amusement, or pastme should be abandoned, which
is not productive of real good, but surely, would
argue that those which are productive of evil
should be; and it seems to be natural for a remon
STRANGE Of the people, eventually, to bear upon
those things in which wrong exists, apparently
before that wrong is apprehended, or pointed out.
For the last ten years dancing has been on the
decline, and to take sudden view we might be
unable to see why for dancing of itself is no evil,
certainly. Yet there must be evil connected with
it, from the fact that the moral world begins to
look down upon it, and that evil is this 1t absorbs
the minds of the youth in that which is of no sig
nifcancs it ntexicates them with folly, and thus
alienates their minds from those things which
would build them up into usefulness, and make
them aspire to do good. 1t also is in violation to
natures laws. 1t breaks down the constitution,
wears out the frame, and brings feelings of age in
youth. All of these wrongs may be justly men
toned in reference to the entertainment of dancing,
but not a solitary good
Oh! thon where is the argument to justify those
who are intelligent enough to be examples for 9TH
ers, in clnging to this now unpopular folly (as is
often the case)?
Such wrongs in which we find resource to ex-
haust superauous life (for it must be superau-
ous, if dancing is not violation Of natures laws,
and only them are not abandoned entire, by one
generation, but in old age, and by useless expert
ence persons are made to be wise counselors to
the succeeding generation, aud therefore the cor
rsction of the error awaits that generation; and
hence tho people do not move morally, with
greater velocity to perfection of character. LY.

FLORENCE SEFTON.
A Tale Of Border Warfare in 1912,
BY MISS b. GARTLAND.
By MISS b. GARTLAND


CoNCLUDED.l
In the mean time, Howell, the moment
that an entrance was effected, and the vic
tory sure. had flown through the fort, seek
ing in every room for Florence At length
he came to the one in which Alice was con-
fined. and the door of which she was vainly
endeavoring to open. Hc unbolted it, and,
seeing Alice. an exclamation of Joy burst
from his lips, as he was now certain othav-
ing found Florence.
"Whcre is Miss Seton? Where is Flo
renee - said he.
lie has carried her off, Captain Mere
dith. Sir Edgar Lee has forced her away
with him." she said, weeping then, obsery-
ing the blood oozng from under the sleeve
of his uniform, she continued, But you
are wounded" !"
He had, indeed, been wounded with the
thrust of a bayonot, and in the same arm in
which he had been shot, when fleeing from
Detroit 1t is vulgar saying that " mis-
fortunes seldom come singly;' and Howell,
having been wounded twice in the same
arm, seemed to prove the truth Gf the pro-
verb. lie paid no a'teatlun 10 AIlces re-
mark OF his being wounded, but rushed out
and along the same entry through which
Sir Edgar had passed, and reached the outer
door, which though furnished with heavy
bolts, and was of great thickness, was now
only fastened by its spring lock. Gotlieb
Pretz, who had followed Howell in his
search through the fort, now appeared, and
having Il hatchet in his belt, soon severed
the lock from the door. They followed the
path in the direction of the river, and,
when they had reached the small hill we
have before spoken ot plainly saw the boat
u
other hoat near in which they could pur-
sue them and. as Howell, almost frantic,
ran along the bank, followed by Gotlieb, he
suddenly stopped, GOOD Heavens the
whirlpool - he exclaimed, and bounded for
ward to throw himself into the stream. He
could not see her perish without trying 10
rescue her; bur Gotlieb caught him, and
struggling TO keep him back, saying
"Don't be so foolish, capt'n, as to throw
away your life for a gal Nou can't swim
with your wounded arm and, if you could
there's no how YOU could save her. But
stop he continued, - soc the Mgin. If
ANYBODY on airth can save her, he can"
This arrested Howuits attention, and,
looking in the direction poiuted ont by Got
leb. saw the black head Of Mnesto occa.
sionally appear above the surface of tho
water.
There's uarcr an otter that ever swum
in water can keep mp with that red skin ;
and, as for s,ayin under water, you'd think
sometimes that lac was takin' nap at the
! bottom OF the river, said Gotlieb.
Howell continued to advance some PAGES,
! looking, with an agony that cannot be de.
| scribed Oh the danger Of her in whom his
whole heart was ceutered.
! Those in the boat had seen their peril,
and were now making Intellectual attempts
| TO alter her course. a moment more, she
had entered the fatal circle, and was whirled

Nor so EASILY SCARED. Many good Incl
dents are related of Miss Anna Dickinson,
of Philadelphia, a public speaker of abil-
ity. She was active in the recent campaign
in Connecticut. One evening she spoke at
Middetown, before an audience of over two
thousand. The Copperheads endeavored
in every possible way to break up the meet
ing, turning off the gas and raising the cry
of +" fire" ringing bells, &c. When the
gas was turned off the unmoved speaker
said, Tread my Bible. | read of the Prince

On the platform, behind Miss Dickinson,
sat Mr.. Jenckes, of Rhode Island, the Re-
publican member Of Congress who had boon
elected on Wednesday by an overwhelming
majority.
AS the annoying bell continued to ring,
the speaker turned and said; 81 have been
wondering why that bell was ringing.

Boy ENTERPRIsE.-Boyso of energy and en-
terprise are the boys who become men of
prominence and wealth in these progressive
times. If American boys would learn the
art of taking care of themselves, they must
acquire the knack" of" earning their own
bread and butter !" of being OIL the look out
for every" smart chance that may turn up, "
if they would be honored men.
When a servant of friend answered the
door-bell one day last week, she found a
little boy, with shovel on his shoulder, on
the steps.
q want to put in your coal, said the
boy.
We haven't got any" said the girl.
Bat it is coming" returned the boy.
The servN"It was puzzled, and summoned
her mistress, who no sooner appeared than
the boy accosted her.
If you please madam, there is load OF
coal coming to your house. Your husband
ordered it this morning. got the number
and came ahead of the cart to get the Job
Of putting it in, if you please"
OF course Madam could not refuse so en-.
terprising youth, and the job was given to
him. In few minutes, cure enough the
coal was " dumped at the door, and the
little "heaver was busily at work Be.
fore he was through, eight boys came to ap-
ply for the same job.

he may be congressman, or cabinet Off

Soon after two o'clock yesterday morning
Il fire broke out in the extensive factory
building of the Crenshaw wooden buildiAg,
situated on the south side of the canal nearly
opposite the foot of Third street, and spread
with such rapidity that the building was
destroyed i'll short time, together with
portion of the Tredegar foundry, owned by
Anderson & Co., adjoining on the west. The
flames lighted up the whole city and coun-
try for miles around. About three o'clock
the interior portion of the Crenshaw mill,
five stories in hight, fell with tremendous
crash, leaving the bare brick wall stand
ing. The entire machinery of the mill, to-
gether with some manufactured goods,
ready for delivery, and doubtless quantity
of manufactured stock, was destroyed The
fire was accidental, having, it is believed,
been caused by friction from the jucker, in
the rear portion of the MILL This mill was
kept going day and night, and it is stated
that the man who attended ii left the room
for moment for the purpose of procuring
oil, and when he returned the room was in
flames. The watchman Immediately put
the force pumps of the mill in operation,
but it was found they had not sufficient
length of hose to play upon the spot where
the flames were raging. and the mill had to
be abandoned to its fate.
By the time the fremen arrived upon the
spot they could do no more than prevent
the destruction of valuable property in the
neighborhood. The mills were owned by
a joint stock company, and most of the work
done was for the Government About one
hundred and fifty operatives, male and fe-
male, are thrown out of employment. The
company were insured for one hundred and
seventy-ono thousand dollars, in Virginia,
South Carolina, Georgia, Florida and Ala
bama offices, not over ten thousand dollars
in one office.
With regard to the losses at the Trede-
gar works, the reporter has obtained the
following particulars:
A portion of the machine and blacksmith
shops, and also one of the buildings in which
gun carriages were finished, were also de-
stroyed. The fire also consumed large
number of old patterns but the gun pat
terms were saved, together with the new
building for casting and the machinery for
boring heavy guns, and this operation will
be resumed in a few weeks. IL is crafty
ing to know further, that the rolling mill
and spike factory, as well as the foundries
for casting shot, shell and car wheels, and
all the ordnance on hand were saved. The
property was partially covered by insur-
ance in the Mutual Assurance Richmond
Fire Association, Virginia Fire and Marine,
Old Dominion, Merchants and Alabama In
suranco Companies. 1t is impossible at
present to give correct estimate of the
total amount of loss.
