Am Egyptian Dance ON the
Mile,

When the girls arose, the
grace of their forms was WISH
BILE; they had on their profess
sional dress worn in the vii
lage, which consisted of a short
embroidered jacket, filing close
but open in front, exposing
their bosoms, on which hung
strings Of glittering ornaments;
long loose trousers of trans
parent silk, a thin sash Of
cashmere twisted around the
loins, rather than around the
waist, and slippers of red
morocco with upturned points,
completed the costume. Their
! hair hung in long braids down
their backs, and hundreds of
small gold coins were twisted
in it, and sparkled as we'll in
glittering circiets over brows
as around necks and arms
Their eyelids were delicately
painted with kohl, so as to
make them almond-shaped,
and-languishing and they
advanced to the centre of the
boat with a certain symmetry
that was in harmony with the
music.
AS they took their places
they threw off their slippers
and commenced the movement,
keeping time to the notes of the
reed pipe, and accompanying it
with the clapping of castanets,
which were fastened to the
thumb and forefnger of each
hand. There were three of
them young and beautiful; the
others hideous, with rat s eyes,
facid cheeks, and tattoed chins
so [ contented myself with
watching the most agreeable.
They danced in groups of two
or four, and then agitating
their copper cymbals around
and above their heads, they
advanced right and left, cir
cling, curvlng, and retreating,
until a sort of prelude was
finished. when joining the or
chestra, who set up a dismal
melancholy song, they began
a movement of the body almost
impossible describe. Their
limbs seemed to be seized with
a trembling, but they moved
not from their position, while
the upper parts OF the body
swayed and turned in a sort of
dancing trepidation, becoming
more and more agitated in
time to the music and wild
singing; and their breasts
feigned with immodesty the
most sensual physical emotions
until they seemed amost to ex-
haust themselves in an auda-
clous ecstacy.

WHITEWASH.

A little whitewash will do a
great amount of good ; but a
full supply, enough to cover
the inside of barns, stables, Gel
lars, &C., with two good coat
ings, is much better. The lime
which enters into this compost
ton is purifying agent, and
the wash serves as a disintect-
ant. The benefits conferred in
this regard compensate for all
the labor and expense involved
in whitewashing; but the clean,
tidy appearance which it gives
to farm premises is most pleas
ing and salutary. In no way
can a farm make so imposing
and even elegant show for a
trlAing an expenditure as by a
free use of whitewash. Even
old buildings glow and glisten
under the whitewash brush, and
assume a new appearance. -
Buildings, in the eye of the
owner, as well as those Of his
neighbors, have a higher money
value after the process is COM
pleted.

CHARLESTON, s. c., May 20.

NdAhLEsIoN, .. ~, May ~.
Dear Sir,-Your note invit-
ing me to attend the ceremony
celebrating at Magnolia Gene
tary the graves of the brave
men who fell in defence of the
Union during the recent civil
war only reached me this morn
ing.
I am very sorry that | can
not be with you on this most
interesting occasion; but it is
now too late to make necessar v
arrangements.
The nation cannot too ten
derby cherish the memory OF
her dead heroes, or too watch
fully guard the we'll being of
those who survive. And may
we not indulge the hope ere
long we who adhered to the
national cause will be prompt
also to join in concentrating
the heroism of our countrymen
who fell on our side, and that
those who now specially mourn
their loss, consenting to the
arbitrament Of arms? and re-
Stunning all their old love for
their country and our country,
one and indivisible, will join
with us in like commemoration
Of the fallen brave of the army
Of the Union?
The dead are not dead. They
have only gone before, and now
see eye to eye. Why may not
we all borrow from their sacred
graves oblivion of past diffe-
rences, and hencetorth unite in
noble and generous endeavor
to assure the honor and welfare
Of our whole country, of all her
States, and of all her citizens?
Very respectfully, yours,
S. P. CHASE.

A Back woods Adventure

A Virginia banker, who was
chairman of a noted infdel
club, was once travelling
through Kentucky, having
bank bills to the amount Of
about $25, 900: When he came
to a lonely forest where muir
ders and robberies were said to
be frequent, he was soon lost,
through taking the wrong
road. The darkness of the
night came quickly over him,
and how to escape from the
threatening danger he knew
not. In his alarm he suddenly
espied in the distance a dim
light, and urging his horse on
ward, he at length came to a
wretched cabin. He knocked.
and the door was opened by a
woman who said that her hus-
band was out hunting, but
would soon return. The gen
tleman put up his horse and en-
tered the cabin, but with feel
'ings that can be better imagin-
ed than described. Here he
was with a large sum of money
and perhaps in the house of one
of the robbers whose name was
a terror to the country.
In q, short time the man of
the house returned. He had
on a deer-skin shirt, a bear-skin
cap, seemed tatigaed, and -
no talkatine mood. a" II,

The man asked the stranger to
retire to bed, but he declined ,
saying he would sit by the fire
all night. The man urged,
but the more he urged the
more the infdel was alarmed
He felt assured that this wal
his last night upon earth but HI
. determined to sell his life al
dearly as he could. His inf
del principles gave him nc
comfort. His fear grew into
perfect agony. What was te
be done
At length the backwoodsmau
arose, reaching to the wooder
shelf, took down an old book
!, and said:
well, stranger, if you won

g habid to read a chapter OF tn
Holy Scriptures before 1 go t

: What a change did thes
words produce. Alarm was a

IMP ROVED
COTTON PLANTER.

THE undersigned offers TO the planters Of this
and adjoining counties an IMPROVED COTT0N
PLANTER, of his own invention, which has been
used by him for the past two years with complete
success. There are two kinds of this Planter ;
one for planting the seed alone, by which single
hand can open the burrows, drop the seed, and
cover at the same time, at the rate of FIVE acres
per day. The same amount Of work can be ac-
complished with the other. and in addition to open
ing the furrows, dropping the seed and covering
separate partition enables you to put in fcrtili.
zers in any desired quantity to the acre. 1t will
plant either cotton, corn or peas and give any
