BEAUT1FUL-"When the summer day
of youth is slowly wasting away into tho
night fall of age and the shadows of the
past years grow deeper and deeper 40 life
wears to close, it is pleasantto to look
back through the visits Of time upon shg
joys and sorrows of early years. If We
have home to shelter OF hearts to re-
joice with us, and friends who have been
gathering around our firestde, then the
rough places of our wayfaring will bs,
worn and smothered away in the twilight
of life, whilst the bright sunny spots We
have passed through will grow brightsr
and more beautiful. Happy, indeed, are
those whose intercourse With the world:
has not changed the course of their
holier feeling, OF broken those nsusieat
chords Of the heart whose vibrations are
so melodious, so tender and so touching
in the evening ofage." ) :

At a social gathering the other night,
following that on which the speeches
were made in front Of the Court House,
the conversation turned on one of the
speakers, F. J. Moses, Jr., and no little
was said about him, which had he heard
would have convinced the man and
brother that no hattery was intended.
One Of the company, lady, full of the
milk Of human kindness, and the charity
which coveTsth sin, remarked, "were I
unfortunately his wife, Id keep him at
home, to prevent, if possible, farther de-
linquencies." Our mouth organ being
present, opened his mouth and spake,
mot so would for Id send him off
never to return" Our organ was in
tune.

"PUT 1T IN YOUR ."-"What pleas
ure can exceed the smoking of the weed?"
The poet must have had good article
of the weed in his pipe when he gave
utterance to the above, just such quail
ity as DR.. 7. Gouin has now on hand,
and Of which, in his usual open-handed,
and large-hearted way of doing things,
he has presented US generous supply.
We heartily recommend the Doctors
Smoking Tobacco, as A. No. l. He has
two brands, one mild, the other strong,
both very superior. Do not rest con-
tent with our word, however, but get a
package of one or the other, as taste in
clines, and try for yourselves, and you
will thank the Doctor as we have done.

CAr1rAL Hi7.-During the progress of
one Of the speeches on Wednesday last
before the unbleached, it happened that
a citizen of the bleached persuasion &C.
cidentally became entangled in the crowd
while on pedestrian tour, which acci-
dent occurred just after the speaker re-.
hearsing the oft repeated story Of free
dom and the privileges conferred, said
"but feller citizens of South Kaliner dey
can keep you out of de parlor," when
our disqualified citizen exsuscitated the
crowd by remarking, loud enough to be
heard, "but We can't keep them out of
our moke.houses.' That was q ten

MYsTERIoUs.-K. X. K.-A letter was
taken from the Post Office on Monday,
addressed to US, which contained an ad-
vertisement headed E. K. K, with COM
mand to publish without fail. One dol
lar and fifty cents accompanied this mys-
terious order, the only ineligible part Of
the affair. We decline publishing this
letter unless We can have an interview
with the terrible K. K. K, as it is a
rule with printers not to publish anony-
nous matters. What it means We can't
say. 1t is singular productiou-possi-
bly, from the supernatural world, from
sulphurous regions, where ghosts and
wizards hold their weird incantations.
Scarcely paper comes to US but has
one of these mysterious orders in it. We
copy one from the Lynchburg Virginian,
which reads thus:

WEDNESDAYS GATHERING in honor OF
Messrs. Chamberlain, Corbin, DeLarge,
and Moses the junior, from below, and
Lee Nance, at home, was not as large as
might have been expected. Some of
this party were white and some colored,
but which were which We could not see.
One of them We are informed was white
man during the early part Of the Con:
federate struggle, and is said to have
been quite conspicuous in flag raising.
and cavorting as aid and secretary, but
has since changed his spots. DeLarge
is and always has been of q. batter-cake
color, and is represented as the most in
telligent and respectable member of this
swcct-scented party. The others, history
not having e@t:c:Sa, n:e=::cIa and of no remark
able appearance, we regret inability to
notice. Well, they came, and spoke the
same stale speeches enur eated in Co.
lumLia and elsewhere, and still to be re-
hearsed-of freedom, liberty, constitu-
tion, what convention did, advice to hold
fastto league, carry them through, right
to vote and hold Office, even to the Pre-.
sidency, &c. Their blinded audience
vented loud and undisguised admiration !;
the Jordan would soon be crossed. Poor
deluded creatures, unable to recognize
that they are only needed for present
party purposes, and will be dropped ere
long to take care Of themselves, they will
not believe, when told by their friends and
old masters, that the bright prospect held
up to their imaginations can only be
temporary, and not lasting, that reac-
tion must come, that white supremacy
must bring them to their level. A year,
two or three, and the day will come,
when the whole complexion Of affairs will
change, and when they will be glad to
turn back to those who have nourished
them, and would still do so if allowed.
We close mention of the party-speak-
ers by saying, that after sowing their
seed, they left.

waxing furious as the express dashed up,
to participate; unfortunately just here
the express was thrown from the track,
caused by one of the upper crusts having
made a tremendous motion on his heavy
fantastic toe, which brought the heel Of
his lanyard In contact with the train.
The Goldfish were thrown out; prepared

OF family innocence, and breakers Of rest.

The Richmond "Examiner" thus speaks
of the probable doings Of this mysterious
order, which first made its appearance
in Parson Brownlow's dominions:
The members OF this mysterious order
are said to be appearing all over the
State in numbers almost equal to the
clouds OF locusts in the East. The
church. yards are said to literally swarm
with them, ana their demands fer shrouds
has almost exhausted the bleeched cot
tons in the towns and villages of the
State. So noiselessly do they fit from
town to town, everywhere kindling q
spirit Of patriotic ardor for the Constitu.
ton, that they seem to be disembodied
spirits rather than actual men. Beyond
the well.ascertained fact that they intend
to hang Hunnicutt from the tail Of Wash
ing.on's bronze horse for endeavoring to
persuade Colonel Barton to capture For
tress Monroe in January, 1861, and to
clip Bayne's superfuous tongue and ears,
and to curry MasSie to death with an old
Confederate currg-comb found amid the
ruins Of the old stables at Bacon Quarter
Branch, nothing is known Of the real in
tentions of these eminent patriots.

The report on business was read by

teresting discussion. Col. Aiken object
ing to third section. Col. Thomas deemed
it important but suggested protest,
which was agreed to by Mr.. Aiken, and
the following amendment was added:
"But at the same time we enter our pro-
test against its validity"
Objection was made by Col. Aiken as
to fifth section, that it did not 60 far
enough.
Gen. Chesnut stated that this section
caused some debate in the Committee
Room. He thought the gentleman from
Abbeville was right. We should say
