PLEAsURE.-Blessed be the hand that
prepares apleasure for child for there is a
saying when and where it may again bloom
forth. Does not ev erybody remember som Q
kind hearted man who showed him skiud-
ness 10 the quiet days OF his childhood
The writer of this recollects himself at this
moment as a barsfooted lad, standing at tn g
wooden fence of poor little garden in his
native village; with longing eyes he gazed
on the flowers which were blooming there
quiet on the brightness of Sunday morn
ing. The possessor came forth from his
little cottage-he was a wood cutter by
trade, and spent the whole week at his work
in the woods. 81 had come into his gar
den to gather flowers to stick in his coat
when be went to church. He saw the boy,
and breaking off the most beautiful OF his
carnations-it was streaked with red and
white-gave it to him. Neither the giver
nor the receiver spoke a word; and with
bounding steps the boy ran home; and now,
here at a vast distance between that HON e;
after so many events of so many years, the
feeling of gratitude which sgitated the
breast of that boy expresses itself on paper.
The carnation has long since whithered.
but it now blooms afresh.-Douglass

AEeER.-Anger units the mind for pray-
or; therefore, "let not the sun go down upon
your wrath;" for no angry man can pray
Alright Jeremy Taylor beautifully illus
trates this:
Anger is perfect alienation of the mind
from prayer, directly contrary to that dispo.
sition which makes our prayers acceptable
to God. Thus, the lark, rising from his bed
OF grass, scars upward. singing as he rises,
but the poor bird is beaten back by the sud
den blast Of an eastern wind and his motion
made irregular and incon slant, descen ding
more at every breath OF the tempest than
It can recover by the vibration of its wings,

and then it makes a more prosperous light,
and rises still and sings, as if it had learned
music and motion from an angel"

COMMON PLACE WoMEN.-Heaven knows
how many simple letters, from simple mind
ed women, have been kissed, cherished,
and wept over by men of far loftier intel
lect. So it will always be to the end of all
time. 1t is lesson worth learning BY those
young creatures who seek to allure by their
accomplishments; or dazzle by their genius
that, though he may admire no man ever
loves a woman for those things. He loves
her for what is essentially distinct tom,
though not incompatible with them' her
woman . nature and her woman's heart
This is why we often see man OF high
genius or intellectual power pass by the De
Staels and the Corinnes to take into his
bosom some wayside flower, who has moth
ing on earth to make her worthy OF him,
except that she is-what SO few OF your
female celebrities area true woman. 1t
is for this reason that intellectual men often
do what, some would be wise people, call
very foolish thing. A genius never mar

OUTRAGEOUS CONDUCT OF NEGRO SOL
DIER.-The last Northern news confirms the
reports which have reached US of the pres
ence of two regim ents of Yankee negro
troops, with Yankee officers, at Elizabeth
City. We'have the best authority for say
ing that the treatment to which the people
of that unfortunate town are heartrending.
The negroes compel white women of deli
cacy and refinement to cook and wash for
them. In one instance we have heard of a
body of these negroes entering a private
house and demanding dinner, which they
insisted should be cooked by the lady of
the house.
While engaged in preparing the food for
her negro guests, the scoundrels INDUCED
in the most loathsome ribaldry, one of them
with his foot throwing the lady's clothes
over her back and shoulders. while the rest
sent up loud peals of laughter. These
statements are upon the authority of re-
spectacle men, and are surely enough to
stir the blood of even those who would go
back to a fellowship with nation of whites
who only permit this, but encourage
it.-Raleigh N. c } Journal.

SORGHUM AT THE WEsT.-Owing
to the great drouth of the past sum
mer, and the early frost, the crop of
sorghum at the West has turned out
badly. Mr.. Mason, of the Illinois
Central railroad, planted $50 acres,
and obtained from it only los barrels
of sirup and 400 barrels of vinegar.
The cost of raising and manufac-
turing was $4,000. After deducting
the market value of the vineger, the
cost of the syrup would be about for
ty cents gallon. In an ordinary
season he would have had 1000 barrels
of molasses, instead of 105 barrels,
and the cost per gallon very trifing.
Notwithstanding the unfavorable
results of the past season, Mr.. Mason
has concluded to plant this year from
ESQ to 400 acres.
