How the Devil Lest.

The following is too good to be lost. We
clip i. from an exchange paper, and respectful,
ly4call the attention to it OF certain persons
who feel disposed to spread in the paper line:
A young mau, who actually desired wealth,
WAS visited by his Satanic majesty, who tempt-
ed linn to promise his soul for eternity if he
could be supplied on this earth with all tho
money he cnuld use. The bargain was conclu-
ded the devil was to supply the money, and
was at last to have the soul, unless the young
man could spend more money than the deVa
could furnish. Years passed away; tile man
married, was exravagant in his living, built
palaces, speculated widely, lost aud gave away
fortunes, and yet his Golfers were always full.
lie turned politicion and brlbed his way to
Tower and fame, without reducing his pile Of
gold. fIe became tilibuster, and fitted out
Slips and arnics, but his banker honored all
his duties. He went to St.sPauI to live, and
pald the usual rates Of interest for all the mo-
ey ne could borrow; l'ut though the devil
made wry faces when lie calne to pay the bills,
yet they we're all paid. Que expedient after
another failed the devil counted the time
only two ycars-that he must wait for the
suu, and Knocked the efforts of tie despairing
man. One more trial WAS resolved upou-the
man started spnpcr The devil growled
at the bill at the end of the OF the hrst Iuarter,

Tie Sumter JWutcamuA has the following,
which we have read with surprise and regret:
In connection with the eucmy's advance ins
to our State, we learn that immense quantities
of corn fell into his hands, which had been
boarded and denied 10 the needy, and at last
it fell into tue hands of the Yankees. And
soldier Informs us, that his regiment was for
SOME time near plantation whose owner re-
fused even to sell any IF his bacon to our
troops, although he had large quantity on
hand, and not until the eucmy advanced and
our men became engaged, did he offer to sell.
1t was then too late, and no doubt the enemies'
of lis country fell heirs to his bacon. All this
is humiIiating aud should not be repeated
Those who have surplus provisions should
share them with their Jess fortunate neighbors,
for who knows how Soon the whole Of it may
be swept away by thc ruthless foe!
