CONCLUSION.

Our gratitude is due to the; Giyer of.all
good for the bright promises of an abundant
harvest now visible throughout the State.
Permit me to express the hope that in all
your deliberations the spirit Of harmony end
mutual forbearance, SO necessary to the digni-
ty Of legislative body, may be carefully
preserved, and that our new State, through
your wisdom and prudence, may inscribe upon
the opening pages of its history, record an
suied BY the petty warfare of interests, and
every member of your body will bear in mind
.tlat he owes not merely duty to the partic-
ular locality that he represents, but that the
whole State of South Carolina now calls upon
him for the unselfish service Of his head and
heart Let US hope that the era of good feel
ing may soon return to the entire people Of
the State, and that they will soon regard them.
selves not simply as the Inhabitants OF an
isolated section, but as citizens of a great ma

Ruler Of the Universe may sustain and direct
you in the afduous duties that lie before you,
that all your acts may insure to the common

The influence of a Good Life.

Our experience aud our conflicts with the
world, lead US at times to indulge miaanthro-
pic sentiments, and charge all men with sci.
fish or impure motives. The play OF pride,
prejudice and passion, and the eageruess man
ifested by the great majority of men to adj
vance their own interests, often at the ex-
pense of others, and in violation Of the gol-
den rule, cause us to look with suspicion
upon the hest intents Of others. Arrogance,
hypocrisy, treacherY and violence, every day
outrage Justice, till we are almost disposed
to distrust human nature, and become dis
eouraged. But amid all that is sad and dis
heartened in e.busy, noisy world now and
then there is prtsented to US life of such
uniform viltue, that we recognize in it a char
acter that brings hope for the perfect devcl-
opement and; ultimate regeneration of our
race. Such characters are precious, and auch
examples should be held up to the world for
andsinaitatioh 3f'they should be-
snafohed from oblivion and treasured in the
hearts aud thoughts of all who are in process
Of forming habits and maturing character.

The Stranger ON the Hill.
pY T. puonasAs REED.

DY 7. BUCHANAN REED.
Between broad fields Of wheat and corn,
In tie loTely home where was born,
The peach trees lean against. the wall,
And the woodbine wanders over all
There IS the shaded doorway still,
But the strangers foot has crossed the SILL
There is the barn-and still as of<yore.-,
Z can smell the hay from the open door,
And see the busy swallows throng,
And hear the peewee's mournful song;'.s .
But the strangercomes-ah painful proof
His sheaves are piled to the heated roof.
There is the orchard-the very trees,
Where my childhood knew long hours of ease,
And watched the shadowy moments run,
Till my life had imbibed more shade than sun;
That swing from the bough now sweeps the all
But the strangers children are swinging there.
There bubbles the shady spring below,
With its bulrush brook where the hazels grow;
Twas there found the calmus root, -
And watched the minnows poise and shoot
And saw the robin lave his wing
But the strangers bucket is at the spring.
Oh i! -ye who daily cross tho sill,
Step lightly, for loveit still,
Andawhen You crowd the old barn caves,
Then think what countless harvest sheaves
Have passed within tho ted door
To gladden. eyes. that are no more.
Deal kindly with those orchard trees;
And when your children crowd your knees, -
Their sweetest fruit shall they impart, s,
As if old memories stirred their hearts;
To youthful sports still leave their swing, So
And in sweet reverence hold the spring.
The barn, the trees, tho brook, the birds,
The.meadows with their loving herds,
The woodbine on the cottage wall
My heart stin fingers by rthem all;
Ye strangers on my native sill,
Step lightly, for I lovc.it still.

In view of the impoverished condition of

rigid economy, in order to maintain the credit
Of the State, / recommend that the salaries
of ell State officers shall be placed at such
a figure az will SECURE to them only reason
able compensation for the discharge Of their

allowance may properly be made for the diff
ference between the gold rate at which they
were formerly paid and the present market

created for the benefit of the public, and not
for the emolument of particular individuals,
those who hold them may we'll be content
With fair compensation for the service that
