VALUABLE HINT.-Readers of the
local column, especially housekeep-E
ers, will frequently find in it articles
or recipes worth twice the subscrip-
ton price of the paper. Here is one
of them:
"To freshen rancid butter: To
pint of water, add thirty drops (about
half a tea-spoonfuD of liquid chloride
of lime. Wash in this two and half
pounds of rancid butter. When
every particle of butter has come in
contact with the water, let it stand an
hour or two; then wash the butter
we'll again in pure water. The butter
is !then left without any odor, and
has the sweetness of fresh butter.
These preparations of lime have no.
thing injurious in them"

STICK TO PRINCIPLE. In the glow
of competition to acquire sudden
fortune, or in tie zeal of industry to
battle the difficulties of enterprise,
we are often apt to be guilty of
lapse from integrity, which, in cooler
moments, we should recoil from with
sense of shame. In the struggles
of trade, the mind is prone to yield
to excitements that overcome discre-
tion, even if they do not vanquish
honor. Nothing is so hard to mode
rate as the passion that impels us to
grow rich, because every delay or
pause seems to rebuke US as if guilty
of Incidence, and we istend self-con-
victed of want of enterprise the mo-
ment we cease to go forward as fast
as our neighbors. In the meantime,
we take consolation to ourselves for
overlapping any little barriers of
integrity by thinking that we do no
more than our neighbors; and why
s'should not lido tiff Mr.. - does?"
The great source of our moral de-
cline is in losing sight of the stand
ard of principle, to be governed by
the fuctuating influence of personal
example. The absence of integrity
in one man causes it in thousand.
All look to each other for standard,
and the consequence is that oil be-
come worse, because principle regu-
lates none; and the evil of few thus
grows to be the vice of the many.

The STREET MovEMENr.-The activity displayed
by the Committee on Streets has not been contin-
ed to East Bay, but is apparently general through
out the city. The aspholtum sidewalk ON East
Bay has been completed to short distance OF the
customhouse, and the aborers are now employed
in filing this pavement to level with the street.
At present lamp-post stands in the centre ofthls
sidewalk, and as it is neither useful nor ornamen-
tai III that position, it should be removed before
the new pavement is laid. In KinS-street' near
lne corner of Calhoun, the macadamizlng plan mas
been adopted, and deposit of broken stones has
been made. This style of paving streets was once
quite popular, and as the workhouse furnlshed
the material, it could be laid at small expense
At present the stone-breakng establishment OF the
city is closed and the inmates of the jail are 100
delicate for such hard labor. The stones placed
on King-street will be quite servceabe, as the
ruts are quite deep, and i'll many places the pave
mont is very uneven.

fencing that under the act Incorporating the bank,

TIE CHRISTMAS TREE.-Commins' Hall was
crowded again yesterday evening with the grave,
the gay and the fair-ail anxious to behold the
wonders of the tree, and to find what gifts
Christkindel had in store for them. The night
was clear and beautiful, and the bright moonlight
tempted many abroad who were irresistibly drawn
to the hall. Inside the arrangement was tho same
us on the previous night the tree andits surround
ings were unchanged and tho supply of gifts
seemed as inexhaustibe as ever. The spectators
were determined to test their luck, and, indeed 1t
would have been impossible 10 refuse the charming
fairies who presented their bags for just one grab
Other opportunities for making fortunes were pre-
sented at every step, and the several attractions
were only resisted when the bottom OF the pocket
was reached. The tree and the general arrange
ment of the internal decorations reflect great
credit upon the ladies OF st. Pauls, as they have
made the hall place OF resort where it is pleas

the waters it is returned in tenfo!d the amount of

The JAPANESE JUaaLERs.-On Monday the ia
panese troupe will appear in this city, and will
exhibit the wonders of their skill in jugglery and
acrobatics Their entire exhibitions are conduct
ed in Japanese STYLE language and music, and
they enable person to get better idea of real
life in japan than could be gotten from mass Of
dry reading. In visiting these moon-eyed Celes-
tals, the public can see the originals Of the pretty
Minnie, who is thus described by the poet SAKE :
'.Her skin had the color of saffron tea,
And her nose was fiat as fat could be;
And never were seen such beautiful eyes,
Two almond 6ernas in shape and size
Set in couple Of startling gsshes,
And not in the least ds6gured by lashes.'
Their style OF hair-dressing is something OF
cross between that of New York belle and Semi
mole Indian. They are bright intelligent fellows,
however, and evidently know city bill from a
sexes-fathers, mothers, SONS and daughters. Tie
children are educated in the business of their pa
rents, thus acquiring remarkable subtlety Of
action, and an extraordinary strength of nerve
Zone is almost cheated" says the Nashville Ban
ner 'tinto the belief that the children have no
bones-are merely bundles of cartilagenous sub
stance. Their balancing feats are nothing less
than astonishing. With them the spinning of tops
is reduced to fine art"
They are certain to draw full houses every night
during their stay, and every one should go to see
what curious things can be done in the way of pos
turing, balancing, contortions and other feats Of
dexterity.

OUR INTERNAL REsoURCEs.-The habit of rely
ing on the North for every article outside of the
products of the soil had hoen fostered to such an
extent that 1t had become second nature, and it
was only when the war sundered the ties that con-
nected the two sections and taught the people to
rely on themselves that our resources we're de-
veloped Since that period, discoveries have been
made that will tend to bring both capital and labor
to the old Palmetto State but the most cheering
sign is the care that is being taken to improve and
develope the agricultural and mechanical re-
sources of the State. Articles that were once Of
no value are now exported largely, and a trade is
being formed that will be of great advantage to
the State. Georgetown and Horny Districts have
always been celebrated for their cypress swamps,
and Conwayboro' shingles were rem owned for their
durability.
Messrs. Tucker g. Jackson, merchants of this
city, have large number of hands employed at
fuckers mill, about twenty miles from George
town, in the manufacture of cypress shingles,
which are shipped from the mills to Baltimore
Philadelphia, and other Northern cities. This
branch of business is rapidly increasing, as the
fact is now well known that cypress shingles, pro-
perIy prepdTeu VIII lasl lul Heaily III. IediS' au
shingled roof is almost as durable as slate or tin.
Vessels carrying these teights have capacity OF
100000 to 400 900 shingles, and number of vessels
are now waiting the announcement Of the lumber
merchants that cargoes ready and they will sail
for Charleston or Georgetown with dispatch.
Messrs T. & J. have at present about one hundred
hands cutting and preparing the lumber in the
woods, but they design increasing their number,
and will accept all able-bodied workmen who cun
