WALHALLA, S, C., FRIDAY, APRIL 2, 1869.

God and man which masonry inculcates, they
are full of mcaning, truth and powor. Where
ever tho light of knowledge has dispelled tho
mists of ignorance, or tho torch of science
revealed the hidden wonders of creation, or
an altar been erected to tho great Architect
Of the Universe, thero masonry exerts it's be-
nign influence uniting mon in an adamantine
bond of "6rotherly lovc."
"That sacred tic which virtuous spirits bind,
That golden CHAIN which links immortal minds"
"Vagao signs and symbols" do thoy call them p!

author-"many advantages are derived the

and know that, besides the common ties of
humanity, there is still a stronger obligation
to induce him to perform kind and friendly

POETRY.
They Say.

Thoy say-ah, we'll suppose they do!
But can they provo tho story true @
Suspicion may arise from naught:
But malice, envy wont Of thought
Why count yourself among the "they"
Who whisper what they dare not say?
They say-but why tho tale rehcarsc,
And help to mako the matter worse?
No good con possibly acruc;
From telling what may DO untrue
And Is it not o noble plan,
To speak of oil the best you can 2.
They say-woll, if IL should DO 80,
Why need you tell the tale of VOC!
Will it the bitter wrong redress,
Or make one pang Of sorrow less ?
Will it tho erring one restore,
Henoeforth to ego and sin no more?
They say-oh! pause and look within!
See how tho heart ~inclincs to sin
Watch, lcst in dark temptations hour,
Thou, too, shouldst sink beneath its power
Pity the frail-wecp DER their fall!
But speak Of good, or not at all.

Planting Prospects.

An intelligent planter from Red Rivor,
who employs a large number Of operatives, in
formed us, a few days since, that the prospects,
of cotton planters in his region, and, in fact,
throughout the State, arc quite aattering;
and he undertakes to predict a future of pros
perity to the South greater than we have ever
enjoyed before. We have no doubt that the
high pricc which our royal staple, cotton,
commands in the markets of tho world, has
furnished a %certaiu foundation for his hopes.
When wo arc ourselves prosperous, and reap
q rich reward for our labor, we arc animated
with a species Of enthusiasm, and encourage
the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES deIusivc-that
the heavens will always smile upon us, and

The Eye Of an Eagle.

The eyes of all birds have a popularity Of
structure which cnablc them to SEQ and hoa,
distant objects equally we'll, and this wonder.
full power is carried to tho greatest perfection
in the bird Of prey. When we %recollect that
an cagle will ascend more than @ milo in per.
pondioular height, aud from chat enormous
elevation will perceive its unsuspeoting proy
and pouncc on it with unerring certainty, and
when wo sec tho same bird scrutinizing with
microscopic nicely an object close at hand, We
shall at once perceive that he possesses the
power of accommodating his sight to distance
in a manner to which our eye is untitled, and
of which it is totally incapable.
If VIC take q printed page wo shall find
that there is some particular distance, proba-
bly, ten ipQhasHaa66 aghi0bh wo can read the
words sz ksgith perfect dis.
lance n to tho distance
OF fWsTYfoBagszsIAS iasS3ind it impossible to
read it at all scientific men would, therefore,
call ten inches tGNzfoous or focid distance of
our eyes. We cannot alter this focus except
by the aid Of spcctaclcs.
But an eagle has the power of altering tho
focus of his eye as he plcuscs; he has only to
look at an object at the distance of two feet or
two miles in order to sec it with perfect dis
tinctncss. The ball Of his eye is surrounded
by fifteen little plates, called %sciorotic bones.
They form a complete ring and their edges
slightly overlap each other.
When he looks at a distant object this lit
tie circlo of bono expands, and the ball of
tho eye being relieved from tho pressure, be-
m %flattcr; and when he looks at q very
near object the little bones press together, and
the ball Of the eye is thus squeezed into a
rounder or moro convex form. A person with
very round eyes is near sighted, and only sees
loicarly on object that is close to him and a
Iperson with fiat eyes, as in old age, can see
s~fothins clear except at a distance. The ca
sglc, Ly the mere will can make his eye round
or fiat, and sec with equal c~lcarncss at any
distance.

MIR. S%pURGEoN's METHODS OF USEFUL.
NEss.-An American traveller in London has
been looking carefully into Mr.. Spurgcon's
methods of operation, by which he has accom-
plished SO many useful results. lie is partic-
ularly impressed with the effectiveness of his
plans for training men for uscfulnuss in the
ministry. AS soon as man joins tho church
he is made to take his part in prayer meetings
and other religious gatherings. If he appears
promising, as to talents and picty, he is put
through a two-ycars course of training for the
ministry, and all the whlio is required to
preach in the streets, or wherever people can
be collected to hear. IIo comes in contact
with %scofEors, infidols or proAigatc persons of
every kind, some of whom interrupt him,
question or contradict him or try to puzzle
him, with their sophistrics, and in this way
he acquires freedom Of utteranccs, quickncss
Of reply, a habit of discrimination and exact
ness of statement and readiness in the appli-
cation of religious truth to The cases Of indi-
yiduals. Helcarns the rudimcnts Of PASTORS

edge, and is then told to educate himself as
long as he lives. Ono of these students from

naolc during the pastors siokaoss is thus
described :.

coy to utter its %oraclcs in q tone of incipicnt
triumph. 1t would be we'll for us, however,
always to remember what the wise man says
Sin the day of prosperity rejoice! In the
day of adversely consider! |" The maxim,
though uttered somo thousands of years ago,
is as true to. day as when it wss first c%nuncia-
ted. The experience of the past may also
justify us in somewhat changing the phrase.
ology, so as to read elm the day of prosper
ity consider and because you have raised
rcmuncrating crops during the last season, do
not rush madly into the mwlstrom of unccr-
tain, and often %ruinous, speculation"
The reason assigned by our planter for this
prospective prosperity is, strange to say, not
the magnitude of the last crop, but the abo.
lition of slavery at The South, and the inau-
guration Of free labor. A few years ago, at
!cast, t.i!a would have boon strange doctrine
in the mouth of a planter who looked to his
own Interests. We were generally of opin-
ion, hero, that the relations of the two races
werc just what they should be, as far as the
interests, wcll.bcing and advancement of both
races were involved. And so, in many res
poets, they were. But one great evil, not a
moral, not q political, but so to speak, a finan.
cial ono, resulted from the institution of slave.
ry 1t induced tho planter to cultivate too
much land, in order to raise larger crops, and
to purchase, from year to year, more negroes,
under tho mistaken idea that negroes conoti>
tutcd the most reliable and productive capital
in which money could be invested.
War and the abolition Of slavery have dis
sipatcd that fallacy, never to be- entertained
again. We have now at length discovered
that the continued purchase of negroes, when
eyer a new crop came in; for ,winioh thoro WINS
n perfect tm,o,e throughout tho South, was
q most %oxhausting process, and what with
tho ductuation in their value, often reduced
tho planter to bankruptcy or left his estate
insolvcnt. Under the new regime, he may
amass money with every new crop, Which no
may safely invest, or employ it in tho i'm.
provemcnt Of his lands, the education Of his
children, and tho increase of his domestic
comforts. That q great and bene1Giaf change
is thus to be effected in the condition Of tho
planter, the state Of trade, in manufacture,
railroad enterprises, and all branches Of bust.
ncss-in n word, in tho whole future of the
South, CANNOT DO doubted.
Another reason for this prospective pros.
pcrity is to be found in tho fact that we have
just now--so to speak-turncd over a new
Leaf. Out Of this Reorganization Of society,
we have, as it were, commenced a new history,
and tho South, with its vast resources and
u~nconquerable energy, is plaood anew upon
itsmottlo. That it will yindioate more than
its past fame, and roach moro than its form.

HABEAs CORPUS -Considerab curiosity
was shown by some citizens, this morning, to as

Thomas, of the Circuit Court. The writ, which
was made returnable this forenoon. prayed re-

The case of White was called after the Judge
had delivered an opinion in a land case or no

interested. 10 response to the wit the JOINT
counsel presented statement which they rep

HIGHWAY ROBBERY Washington Re

night, week since, Charles Walter, the son
of cur fellow citizen, Charles S. Wallach,
esq.,, who has been for the last eight months
sojourniug with Major Boyle, at Fauquier
White Sulphur springs, Va, was at night cap
tured by three robbers and carried some dis
lance into the pine woods, where five other
desperadoes were assembled; these eight kept
the boy for about two hours and robbed him OF
everything on his person, and after consulta-
ton sent him off under the guard of one OF their
number no doubt with the intention of muir.
deriug him, but fortunately, while travelling
along, the robbcr stumbled and fell, when the
boy, with great presence of mind, broke and

farm of Mr.. Lancaster, succeeded IN reaching
the house, into which he entered in an ex-
hausted state and was thus providentlaliy
saved.
