OLD Folks,

All, don't be sorrowful, darling,
And don't be sorrowful, pray;
Taking the year together, my dear,
There isn't more night than day.
'Tis rainy weather, my darling,
Times waves, they heavily run;
But taking the year together, my dear,
There isn't more clouds than sun.
we are old folks now, my darling,
Our heads are growing gray;
And taking the year together, my dear,
You will always find the May.
We have had our May, my darling,
And our roses, long ago;
And the time OF year is coming, my dear,
For the silent night and snow.
And God is God, my darling,
OF night as well as day;
And we feel and know that we can so
Wherever he leads the way.
Aye, God of the night, my darling
or the night of death so grim;
The gate that leads out of life, good wife,
Is the gate that leads to Him.

READY.MADE CLOTHING.

TNHE ladies, gentlemen and young peo-
Il pie OF Columbia, who may be in want
OF "SOMETHING TO WEAR, are respect
fully and earnestly invited by the ladies of
the Industrial Association to call at their
Work.room, in the Female Academy, and
examine the articles which they have now
ready for sale. Some one will always be
found ready to exhibit the ready made gar
ments and 10 receive orders from those
who may wish to have work done neatly
and promptly.
The object of the Association is to fur
nish constant employment to those who,
having been impoverished by the war, now
depend on the needle for daily bread
Does not such an object commend itself to
the hearts of our citizens? Or must the
anxious applicants for work be told that
o'0,,peeoWc prefer Northorn-made garments,
and that there is, therefore, no more worl;
for MeH? Shall it be said that such an
Association as this cannot be sustained in
the capital of South Carolina? Jan 10

SQUEEZING 4 G1Rn's HAND. The
Pike County Qll.) Democrat is re-
sponsible for the following:
At a dance, the other night, not q
thousand miles from Pittsfield, two
chaps got nightly struck with the
same girl. She, not willing to show
special favor to either, declined
dancing, and seated herself in the
back part of the room. Being chilly,
the fair maiden wore large shawl,
and one of her admirers concluded
to slip his hand under the shawl and
try what effect squeezing her hand
would have. He went for it and
succeeded. Lord! how happy he
was. He squeezed, and he squeezed.
He felt glorious all over, and she
evidently felt glorious, too. After
a joyful time spent in this way, the
lady threw back her shawl, and re-
vealed to little crowd standing near,
our two youths squeezing one an
others hands most lovingly. Itdon't
do to sny squeeze" to either of them
since.

CUSTOM HOUSE FRAUDS.

The special committee appointed by Con.

in New York city, have made their report,
wich will he interesting in knowing some
thing Of the immaculate integrity Of John
sons new aPpoinrces. The abuse extends
hack To the appointment Of Collector Smyth
who, IL will be remembered, was among
the fins, of Jol'nsou's appointments when
he openly betrayed the Republicans. Il is
not for us to say that Johnson himself is or
wus party tn these frauds many good
men are unfortunately related to rascals and
arc unjustly ma,lc To- suffer by inputniion
when innocent; hut such strong circurnstan-
'ial evidence in the crime of m,ir,ler, Ms is
here produced duplicating johnson in the
crime of eNtoriionaic fruml-would at lcnst
cmlangcr the life ofany person accused be-
fore any court in this country. Here also
are seen some nrihc patriotic inducements
of Senator Dooliulc to follow in the wake

Mrs. Perry, daughter Of the President land
James Humphrey, n "lemocra,ic" member
OF Congress from New York. were joint
partners in he robbery. This does not alb
solutcly prove that johnson was another
partner, although so much Of the money
went into his family.
A slip of paper WAS produced on which
the collector had penciled the following:
Mrs. Perry. S:l0O0; brown, 5000; Polit-
ical, 5000; 10000; s5OOO; $4,000
$4,000; $4,000" The report goes on to
state that the slip was explained by the SUR
,iying partner Of Humphrey & Co. and was
proved undoubtedly To be Smythe's. The
duplicate $4,000 represented respectively
the amounts destined for the two friends Of
the President. There is abundant tesiimo-
ny to show that Messrs. Doolitile and Pat.
,cron were the friends Of the President re-
