A COOP PEoPLE.-.The Sheriff of CAL
noun County, Ala. has resigned because
the people are too lenient to sue each
other, and was about to starVe to death
on the proceeds of the Office, which he
says are just about nothing at all. We
admire the good sense of both the peo-
pie and the Sherif-the first for giving
him nothing to do, and he for declining
to do it. lie says in his letter Of resig-
nation:
When I went into the Office, deter
mined to try to make a good sheriff, and
give satisfaction, but found it impossi-
BILE to do so without money or assis-
tance.-And now l ask what else could
do under these circumstances, but quit
sherifFing, 60 to work, try to make some
thing to pay my debts, and prepare to
marry before il is too late

There was nothing Of interest
tonote on theroute from Newberry
to Columbia except the varied hues
of the Autumn foliage which to
the lover ofnature affords pleasure,
and especially during such bright,
soft Indian Summer as we have
been having this month. Ny
fellow-traveller, a Young female
relative, just entering herteens, as
well her first journey ofany extent,
especially by rail, found much to
interest her, and T rather envied
her her freshness and simplicity.
We were advised by a friend on
the train, to stop at the Shiver
House formerly Roache's) on &C
count Of the Miss in her teens" as
the landlady of that house is very
d klnd IN taxing care OF young ladies
travelling alone. I found this to
be the case in the instance Of my
young friend, for she was taken
into the apartments Of the family,
and my own quarters were just
opposite on the same floor, where
I was quite comfortable. This
Houseisveryconvenientlysit situated
in the business.part Of the town
and yet has an air Of quiet retire
ment. tits very neatly kept. The
rooms are comfortable ifnot splen-
did, and the table is we'll furnished.
We walked out through the town
to see its desolation, and without
any affectation Of sentiment, the
aspect Of Columbia 10 very saddcn-

had a meeting On Monday night,
when two hundred Of them, inclu-

that Trinity seemed anxious to
come to a compromise with the
heirs. He valued the property in

the departure of swarm Of Yankee
'school marms" from jackson, says:
zone of them is known to have bathed

learn her pupils, male and female-be-
tween the ages Of 20 and 45-the accom-
plishmcnts of swimming on a beautiful
evening in May. And bad luck to the

Dogswith their heads, where their tails ought be
Adignifed elephant holding court,
And curious characters making him snort.
A queer little man, in black, in the run,
Whom the elephant said, was called thesun.
But stranger things I saw in a church,
Where no one would look, m making search,
For bottles or corkscrews, sugars and spice,
All Ithese saw, with julepS and ice;
And some other things not quite so nice
To man with the chill and fever.

The Legislature of Mississippi con-
vened in extra session on Monday last.
Gov. Humphreys, in his message to the
Legislature, says he considers the Con-

whole South, and says he presumes that
it will only be necessary to read it to the
Legislature for that body to reject it.

WEDNESDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER IA, 1866.

intent. Mr.. Charles Brietz and
his amiable companion (who is Of
Protestant Irish extraction, and
bears the physiognomy of the
North Of Ireland) are most agre-
able people to stop with, and I
would like to particularize some of
the special articles Of the cuisine,
especially the deserts or pastry,
for the benefit of housekeepers,
but the dread Of being compared
to the voluble and talkative Miss
Bates, Ga character in one Of Miss
Jane Austen's novels) who entered
so much into particulars about
every day matters, and to whomI
have been compared by some Of
my privilegedlady friends, s,restrains
my pen and inclination in this
instance. Mr.. Brietz is sensible
and unobtrusive but attentive and
kind, while his better half is kind
ness itself in actions and manners.
The rates at this house are only
two dollars per diem, whilst the
rates of the Hotel are four dollars
day. I walked out to see the
new town Of Winston, hard by
Salem, and the boundaries are so
blended and indistinct that I was
reminded ola certain line ola hymn
'where does hope end and where begin the
confines Of despair"
On my return I was invited by
my landlady to partale Of vesper,
a relic of German customs, which
commonly obtains on Sunday with
most families. 1t is to partake of
coffee, with a particular kind Of
sweet cake; why it is called vesper
I did not learn, as the hour I par
took of it was about half past two
in the afternoon, about two hours
after dinner. The last morning OF
my stay in Salem I walked to the
cemetry and going out of a gate
at the back, found that l had
entered upon a more modern one
which was Of great extent, and
magnificent in gorgeous woods OF
aboriginal growth, in all their
superb autumn dress. A deep
ravine intersected this repository
of the dead, and a terraced walk
wound round this ravine in the
form of the letter Z. Other smaller
ravines also diversified the grounds,
and beautiful enclosures with
groves tastefully adorned. One
large vault belonging to the
family Of Fries with the simple
surname upon the front, was built
into the side of q hill. On one
grave, most beautiful cross Of
bright fresh flowers Of glorious
form and hue, rested. Adjoining
this cemetery are the handsome
grounds Of the Academy, which
have in the centre a very fine
pavilion which is furnished with
seats, but the structure is very
much defaced by scribblers. The
walks and mistic seats and alcoves,
with the magnificent trees and
coverd fountains in the grounds,
render the place a delightful re-
treat and place Of recreation for
the young novices. This last
walk closed my visit in Salem.
On my return I stopped at Nicker-
sons Hotel in Columbia, with
which I was much pleased, both
as to it's locality and accommodate
tions. It is certainly first class
Hotel. ~. .-..
