NO BABY IN THE HOUSE.

No baby in the house, know,
'Tis far too nice and clean;
No tops ~ careless fingers thrown
Upon the floor nrc Recn;
No finger-marksa are on the pnnea,
No scratches on the chairs;
No wooden men set up in rows,
Or mnrshai!cI OF in pairs;
No little stockings to bc darned,
All ragged ct the toes;
No pile Of mcnding to be done,
Made up Of baby clothes;
No little troubles to be soothed,
No little hand to fold;
No grimy fingers to be washed,
No stories to be told;
No tender kisses to be given,
No nicEnames. "Lovo" and "Mouse )"
No merry frolics after tea
No baby in the house.

We know not that she ever spoke

Mr.. John Caldwell.

The report Of the proceedings in the Senate
on Friday says:
Wright presented the petition OF John
Caldwell, Of Charleston, asking the Legislature
to take steps to enable him to collect past due
coupons Of the Charleston and Savannah Ball
road.
Nobody who knows this person will be sur
prised at his asking this. It is quite natural
and appropriate for Mr. John Caldwell to occu-
py the time Of the Legislature at an expense to
the public of the trife OF couple Of thousand
dollars day to tell him how to convert his In
vestments of 'rebel currency" into good
money, instead of paying lawyer fifty dollars
to tell him the same thing. But it would be
rather queer if the Legislature should giatlfy
hlm in his economical notions. II the Legisla-
ture should care 10 know what his coupons cost
him in Confederate notes. and what these were
worth in good money, there is broker who
can give some valuable information.
Mr.. Caldwell knows, and everybody else who
desires knows, or may know, that the railroad
company are making al effort to finish the
road, pay the coupons in arrears, bring up to
par the value of the bonds, and give 20 the
stock ITSELF in time, a.substsntial dlvidend.pay-
ing value. For this they have plan before the
Legislature, and this plan Mr.. Caldwell wishes
to defeat, prop 1sng, as he has always all his
life proposed, to protect himself in way to do
most harm to others and the public, rather
than permit the public" welfare to be ad-
vanced while he is fully protected and paid. It
has always been so with him. He well nigh
ruined the South Carolina Railroad while its
President by his care Of himself and his disre-
gard of its prosperity. And he would now
prefer to be paid his investment Of Confederate
treasury notes by sherih's sale than to wait
few months and then be paid in full for his
coupons and pocket his ll-gotten gains.
The writer Of this, including what he repre-
sents for others, is the owner or agent for more
than one-fourth (nearlv one-third) of the whoe
bond and coupon debt of the road. He has
carefully examined and considered the plan of
the directors now before the Legislature for
restoring the road to Savannah, paying the
coupons 10 arrears, and raising the value Of the
bonds to par; and he has deliberately approx
ed of it as the very best that can be devised for
his interest, (which is the interest of the bond
holders the credit of the State and tho public
good. He sincerely hopes the Legislature will
faithfully discharge its duty to these interests,
and disregard MIR. John Caldwcll's selfish
schenaing.
AS for The directors, the writer takes the i;-
erty to warn them against falling into the trap.
and paying one dollar to bug OF Mr.. Caldwclis
opposition. Thor plan is approved OF by nine
tenths of the bondholders, who have examined
and understand 1t. Their interests and the pub.
Lie credit unite in the desire that the plan be
adopted a0ahou: change or amendment. W.

Hon. G.. ". Clark, Mayor:
S1R: To you, as the guardian of the peace OF
the city, we address ourselves upon question
Of vital Importance to the happiness and safety
of every member of the community.
On friday nighta mob broke into the club
room of the Democratic Club Of Ward No 4,
destroyed the furniture, damaged the building
and dispersed the occupants.
On Saturday nighta larger and more lawless
mob paraded the streets. Yelling and shout
ing, they proceeded to the White Point Garden
and there organized an open air meeting, which
was kept up with every species OF noisy de-
monstration until after eleven o'clock. They
then proceeded up Meeting-street, whooping,
shouting, and uttering horrid curses and the
most obscene expressions. In their progress
they assaulted citizen. a sergeant of po-
lice attempted to do his duty and arrested the
parties who committed the offence. Theprison-
ers were Immediately rescued by the mob, and
the sergeant compelled to fly for his life.
Arriving in front OF the Guardhouse, the mob
shouted, jeered, threw sand and dirt into the
windows Of the Guardhouse, and by every
means endeavored to provoke the police force
to collision.
The shameful spectacle was presented OF a
mob openly defying with impunity the legal
authorities of the city.
We do not censure the Chief of Police or his
subordinates. They simply acted under the in
structions given by you. But where, sir, were
your Toyou the safety Of the city is entrust-
ed; to you law-abiding citizens look for protec-
tion-for the enforcement of law-for the abil-
ity to live in peace and quiet. For this pur-
pose you are clothed with power-for thispur-
pose you are provided with police force-for
this purpose we bear the heavy taxation which
your ordinances impose, and to you we look for
the fulflment Of your part Of the contract.
Do not misunderstood us. We take no ex-
ception to political gatherings, be their politics
what they may; but as citizens, ne have the
right to insist that these gatherings and meet.
ings shall be conducted with some respect to
law and order; that they shall not be the occa-
sions Of demonstrations violating public peace
and common decency, and that our wives and
daughters shall not be compelled to listen to
the blasphemies and indecencies Of q mob.
II you intend to secure the peace and quiet
Of the city, to maintain law and preserve order,
say so. and we will cheerfully yield obedience,
as We have hitherto done, TO the measures you
deem proper.
II you do not intend 10 discharge your duty,
but 10 allow mob to take possession o. the
city, set at naught it's laws and ordinances, de-
fy and assail its police, and to leave the lives,
property and peace of the citizens to the rule
Of q mob, say so, and we will know where we
are and what we may expect.
To you the care OF the city and the citizen is
committed. 1t devolves solemn responsible
ty, one which you cannot and shall not escape.
