PORTRAIT PARTING nowadays is reduced
to science, and the artist, by the as.
sistance Of the camera, is enabled to promise
with absolute certainty 9 likeness that will be
perfect in its fidelity to the original. and at
the same time far less costly than flrst-class
fportraits in oil have usually been in the past.
A striking instance Of the late improvements
in this particular department OF art may he seen
at Quinby Co.'s Photograph Gallery. where
lite size portraits Of two old and we'll known
citizens OF Charleston are temporarily on exhi-
0ition. These are executed in oil on canvass
and while admirable in coloring and expression,
possess PERFECTION OF outline that skill. how
ever eminent. unaSsfsted by natural science,
could hardly hope to attain. We learn that
the portraits were painted in New York
from photographs by Qulnby & Co. They are
we'll worth visit. aaGi la:L

The NAVAL NoNDEsoR1Pr launched by DR..
Augustus Fitch. at the foot OF Broad. street,

has been the result Of long pains taking on
the part of the Doctor, who constructed it on
his own premises in his leisure moments. It
resembles small steamer, and is propelled by
rotary paddles in the centre, on either side Of
which are keels twelve inches deep. The craft
is provided with double rudders, which are
conveniently manoouvcred by capstan. Built
for pleasure service on the pond, it has not
proven in all respects as successful an expert
ment as was anticipated, but will fully serve
the purpose for which she was designed.

going readers will not have forgotten Miss
Kate Raymond, young, spirited and rather

Der OF Templetons stock company, sustaining
generally what are known as so,tbrette parts.
Subsequently, she attached herself to the
hoIse-drama connected with Lowandes circus,
and having made that kind Of acting her spec
ialty, she seems to have achieved consider able
success. We see by the Northern papers that
she is starring it in the principal cities as
"Mazeppa," ''The French Spy" &c. In Wash
ington, where she is now playing, she is ad-
vertised as "the dashing equestrienne and
comedienne. Miss Kate Raymond" !" and in CON-
junction with cher famous trained mare, Black
Bess," seems to be drawing crowded houses.

than his hands could have done in 6
month. With the morning light ht
crawled through the now large tun
mel; but when he reached the outer
end found, to his horror, that he was
on the top of mighty precipice. His
blood boiled, his brain seemed on fire
his heart beat as if it would break
through ribs and flesh. He was, if
possible, more desperately imprison
ed than before. How was he to get
down? Through his bewildered mind
suddenly flashed the thought of the
skins of the ibex and the chamois,and
he was not long in making a rope of
them. He then cut a deep hole in
the ice, drove down his alpenstock,
fastened one end to it, and swinging
himself off, reached the bottom in
safety.
With cry of joy and prayer of
thankfulness, he hastened along the
we'll known path; aud when the bell

It's VIcTIMs.-There he goes reel
ing down the street, a thing for beasts
to loathe. Once, they say, he was a
handsome fellow, sweet of voice and
bright of eye man for men to ad-
mire and women to love. What chang
ed him? Rum.
There is woman-a woman by
her dress, loathsome as it is; once
she was bonny, fresh skinned Irish
girl-a servant only, but good one,
well paid and respected. Yesterday
| saw tavern-keeper kick her from
his door, woman as she is, into the
mud. What did that? Rum.
A child begs there, deformed and
hideous child. Who dropped him from
her arms and crushed his beauty out ?
A drunken mother. Who turned him
into the streets to beg upon his
crutches A drunken father.
In that Jail lies man who will be
hung next Friday-hung with the sin
of murder upon his soul. He killed
his wife; the woman he wooed in the
green country side five years ago;
the woman who has shared his troub-
les patiently and borne poverty and
ill-usage without complaint. What
made him kill her-what lifted the
murderous weapon over that faithful
heart-what has dragged him to his
doom, the horrible doom of the gal
lows? Rum.
You would not take that wretched
man at the tavern door by the hand
and call him your friend; nor the
miserable woman lying in the kennel.
You might cast penny or so to the
filthy beggar child, but you would
scarcely caress him. And as for this
murderer, you shrink from him in ter
ror and disgust; but Rum, the cause
of all, you do not hate; you open
your arms to it; you praise it; you
think well of it. Rum horrible
Ruml
You call it wine, as you sip it at
your lunch table, lady with the jewel
ed fingers and bright eyes. You call
it brandy, who have it of the best
after dinner, as you think man al
ways should. You call it ale, pater-
f@milias, as you fill the family glasses.
And you, Champagne Charlie have
your own bright name for it; but it
is the same thing, this that you like so
well, only at higher price, perhaps,
as that which dragged the drunkard
.yonder to the gutter, the beggar to
his corner. and the murderer to the
gallows; and like the phantom wo-
man of the old ballad, it has power
to drag you to as terrible a doom, if
once it winds its arms about you, this
horrible, terrible, fend-giyen, accurs-
ed Rum.
