THE PLACE Fca OYsTERs.-O friend l..
VAN HoRssEE, who has embalmed in i'm
mortal verse that "pearl of great price,
Peace--to the palates and stomachs of
those who frequent LEoNABD's Oyster es-
adjustment in the Harvey House base
ment--may indulge still farther his poetic
vein and enlarge his text by referring to
his intimate friend LEoNARD's guststory
advertisement in to-days's paper.
Folks who resort to LEoNARD's say, that
he and his bivalves and ct oeteras are all
that VAN HoRssEn's fancy has painted
them.
Although LEONARD, like other caterers,
has to halve his oysters, or rather the
shells, before the delicious mollusks can
be swallowed, yet it is not to be be inferred
from this that he does things up in his
line by halves, for az the western folks
would say, he is perfect "hoss," with a
few syllables to spare, il not "whole
team" in his way.

DIDN'T MEAN THAT EvENING.-A
crack Drained man, who was sighted
by the females, very modestly asked
a young lady, "if she would let him
spend the evening with her.
"No," she angrily replied, "that's
what | won't"
why" replied he, "you needn't
be so fussy; didn't mean this even.

A MILITARY NEcEssITY.-The
military guard that keeps watch in
front of the residence of the Secre-
tary of War, on X street, permits no
army trains or wagons to pass the

raise. These are all turned into the
next street, where the dust settles on
other houses.-Nea0 York Tri6une's

The Columbia papers of. the 9th were received
by yesteFdays mails They contain litc of interest
touching the progress of SHEraaN's match in this
state which is now absorbing public attentions
A report has reached bcre, hat Che Yankees had
cut tlc S. c. Railroad at Midway, about elui-dis-
tant from Augusta and Branchvllc.
Gov. MAcrAru has issued a spirited and lengthy
address to The people of This State to rally in her

Tho uaw seorstary. of War.

Gen. BnEcKESHIDGE has entered upon lis-new
position. In recent issue, the Richmond E:sS7n-
Sacr thus speaks of him:
s.Among all the officers of the army none enjoy,
more Of the confidence Of the troops and the peo-
pie than Major General breckenridge. His Mea
has been the consequence of his good hard conlaOB
sense, and ebe has never failed because his good
sense always dominated his military. experience
Such man tries military suggestions not by the
rules and prcccpts oftl,e science but by tliehome-
ly standard of common sense. He is a man of
brains, and his head works, and works most cfcc-
tually, in all that he does. No teachings of West
Pointsm, no smattcring of military science, no ap-
plicatlon of Napolcon's campaigns, no attempts to
imitale the strategy of any great general eyer
spoil The promptings of his good common sense;
this has made him lucky this has raised him from
a civilian to military chicitain of higli order and
won for him flic respect of his super;ors the con-
fdcncc of his army, and the admiration of his
councrymcn."
