Burning Of the Calhoun Mansion.

The burning of the house, says the
Port Royal Press Of Feb. 11th, in which
John G. Calhoun was born, and lived un.
ill within four years Of his death, was an
event which occurred during the latter
part of last week. The house situated at
Braddock's Point, and had been used as
a signal station ever since the possession
of Port Royal Island by our forces. The
fire is supposed TO have originated from
defective fue. The building was com.
pletely destroyed. Those who have vis-
tied the locality within late years will re.
member, perhaps, tomb which is erect.
ed on the grounds; not far from the spo:
where the house once stood. 1t is the
belief OF many that the remains reposing
in the tomb are those Of Calhoun, but
such is not the case. After the death Of
the great agitator, theproperty passed in
10 hands OF members Of the family, and
subsequently, into the possession Of his
overseer. When the overseer died his
body was placed in the tomb of which
mention has been made, and where it now
rests. Since the fire occurred carpenters
have been sent to Braddock's Point, where
they have built high tower to be used
by the signal corps. We presume no
loyal person will regret the burning of
the mansion.

Smoke for the Cure of Wounds.

A correspondent Of the Country Gentle.
man recommends smoke as cure for
wounds in men and animals. He SAYS:
IL cut my foot with an axe, The lady OF
The house, seizing the foot while il was
ye. bleeding freely, held it over a pan
containing smoking tag-locks. In a few
minutes the bleeding stopped, and the
smoke removed, and bandage applied

ly never panied me. 1 have seen the
remedy tried iu many similar eases, and
always with the same result.
Let the reader bear in mind tht no
liniment or salve, drawing Or healing,
should be applied. You have merely to
smoke the wound well and nature will do
the rest. suppose the smoke of burning
wood would produce the same results, but
it would not be SO manageable. There is
a principle in the smoks Of wood, which.
when applied to the flesh. coagulates the
albumen. thus rendering it unsusceptible
ofputreiaction. The same principle stops
bleeding by coagulaling the blood. It
promotes healiug, and may be applied
with decided benefit to all ulcers, wounds
and cutaneous disease"

General Sherman to a Friend.

A letter written by General Sherman
from Marietta, Ca, to a lady in Balti-
more, which has just been made public,
affords a clear insigb. into the private
character OF the great captain. The let
ter commences. by saying: ......
Little did l dream, when knew you
as little schoolgirl on Sullivan's Island
beach, that should control vast army,
pointing like the swarms Of Alaric to-
wards the plains of the South. Why,
oh! why is this? II l know my own.
heart it beats as warmly towards those
kind and generous families that greeted
us with such warm hospitality in days
long passed, but still present in memory.
He then reviews the progress of the re-
bellion, asserting that the South "had no
cause, not even pretext," for secession.
and declaring that though his heart often
bleeds at the scenes OF carnage around
him, ye: duty demands OF the North
steady prosecution OF the war until tho
South shall submit, and her people "re-
sumo their places as American citizens
with all their proud heritages." He closes
by saying:
Should The fortunes of war ever bring
you or yonr sisters or any Of our old
clique under the shelter Of my.authority,
do not believe they will have cause to re-
grei it.
Eight months have elapsed, and .
"wondrous cycle Of events" completed,
has brought Sullivan's Island, and his
friends Of other days,under the shelter Of
Sherman's authority. -. ...

Missouri Emancipation.

The prayer offered by Rev. DR.. Elliot
in the Missouri Convention, after the
adoption Of The Emancipation Ordinance,
is a model 10 its way. The reverend gen.

as follows:

Thee that Thou art 10 fespecter Of per-

Jesus Christ into the world to redeem the
world from sin; that He was the friend of
the poor; that He came TO break the man

might 20 free." We thank Thee that
this day the people Of this State have had
Grace given them TO do as they would

Convention; that no evil may come 10

that light has now come out from dark

THE LATEST WAR NEWS.

0 pale, pale face! o helpless hands
Sweet eyes by frutless watchings wronged;
Yet turning over towards the lands
Where Wars red hosts are tbronged!
She shudders when they tell the tale
or some great battle fought and won;
Her sweet cbld-face grows old and pale,
Her heart falls like stone.
She secs no conqueriug flag unfurled,
She hears no victory's brazeu roar;
But dear face which was her world,
Perchance she'll kiss 20 more
Ever there comes between her sight
And the glory they ravo about.
A boyish brow and eyes whose light
OF spleudor has goue out.
The midnight glory of his hair,
Where late her fingers, like a food
OF moonlight, andered-lngering there
Is stiff and dank with blood |!
She must not shrek, she must not moan.
She must not wiring her quivering hands
But. sitting dumb and whi,e alone,
Bo bound with viewlcss bands.
Because her suffering life enfolds
Another dearor, feebler life,
In death.stiong grasp her hear; she holds,
And stills it's torturing. strife.
Yester owe, they say. field was won,
Her eyes ask tidings of the fight;
But tell her Of the doad alone
Who lay out in the night.
In mercy tell hor that his name
Was not upon that fatal list;
That not among the heaps of slain
Dumb are the lips she's kissed
o poor, pale child o woman hearth
It's weakness triumphed Ger by strength
Love teaching diaeiplines stern art,
And coDquering at length.

How to Grow Beautiful.

Persons mayout grow disease and be-
come healthy by proper attention 10 the
laws of their physical constitution. By
moderate and daily exercise, men may
become active and strong in limb aud
muscle. Bnt to grow beautiful, how?
Age dims The luster Of the eye and pales
roses on beauty's cheek; while crowsfeet,
and burrows. and wrinkles, and lost seth,
and gray hsirs, and bald head, and tot
tering limbs, most sadly mar the human
form divine. But dim as the eye is. pal
lid and sunken as may be The face of
beauty, and frail and feeble that once
strong, erect, and manly body, the i'm
mortal soul just fledging its wings for its
home in heaven, may look out through
those fade. windows as beautiful as the
dew-drop Of summers morning. as melt
ing as the tears that glis,en in affections s
eye-by growing kindly, by cullivatiug
sympathy with all human kind, by cher.
ishing forbearance toward the follies and
foibles OF our race, and feeding, day by
day, on that love to God and man which
lifts US from the brute and makes US akin
to angels.

UNION OF MErHoplsrs.-Tbe Indication

UNION OF METHoDlsrs.-The Indications
are apparent that on the return of peace,
will come reunion Of all the Methodists
in the country. Previous to The breaking
out of the war there were nearly 1000, 900
of communicates in the Methodist Church,
which was only divided on the question of
slavery. This evil abolished, the hope 10 in
dulged that all the Methodists in the couu.
try will be united at the approaching GEN.
tennary year. Already a movement has
been inaugurated TO this end in Tennessee,
Rev. w, A. CritchIow, of Murfreesboro ,hav-
ing published an address upon the subject,
acknowledging the hand of God in using
the rebellion to sweep away tho pretext for
the division of the Church and the dissolu-
ton Of the Union, and declaring it proper
that with tho restoration of the authority of
the government over the revolted States,
efforts should be made to reunite the
Church.
