the Laufensville Herald republishes these

PALMETTO MEDALS. a meeting of
the Palmetto Association, held on the
evening of the 20th-the first assembly
OF the association for many years
President W. B. Stanley was authorized
to receive and pay for-at a rate, ii
necessary, above their actual value-all
medals presented to members Of the
Palmetto Regimentb by the State. These
medals are scattered over the United

off by Sherman's army. 1t is the desire
of the association to return these medals
to their proper owners, or their heirs.
FROM THE WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS,
VIRG1N1A.-A friend from the White
Sulphur, although married man, and,
indeed, very much married, rs he is the
happy father of happy family, comes
back all aglow with his experience at
that fas' ionable resort. We learn that
q number of South Carolina ladies and
gentlemen are there, and that the time
passes delightfully."- under the influence
of wealth and beauty, and all that. A
friend of ours from Ncwberry is said to
have fallen victim to pair of black
eyes from the Northwest We learn
further, that the South is we'll repre-
sented in the distinguished men and
women there congregated Generals
Lee, Beauregard and Magruder are
there, and that world-renowned man,
Mr. Peabody, is the centre of observa-
ton. To those of us who unfortunately
belong TO the can't-get-away- club, these
glimpses of life at the springs are CRATE
fully received.

following sensible article from the Balti-
more iSun:
'It is very seldom that any business
can be counted upon as sure to yield
large and constant income. There are
many chances and casualties in trade and
business which cannot be foreseen. He
is fortunate man, indeed, whatever his
calling, who does not find himself,
sooner or later, going 'out of fashion,
The new conner, or more dashing, inge-
nious or willy competitor, will sometimes
distance an old public favorite. Or
successful man may be spoiled by sue
cess, and spoil his own business by me-
glect or over-confdence in his reputa-
ton. For these and many other reasons,
it should be the effort of every man to
become Independent of his business.
We mean that he should place part,
however small, of his earnings in some
description of investment, which shall
be secure from the chances which affect
