give the results of his observations to public
at no distant day in thesforn of a book, to be
illustrated from the sketches mentioned.
s The Colonelsis singularly attractive man in
personal appearance-such a man as you'd
turn to look at again as you passed him. Hell
about 80 years Of age, little over six feet high,
square built, 1.-the and muscular, of fine physique,
dark brown hair, with DundreaIy whiskers and
moustache a shade lighter, blue eyes and a
quick, intelligent expression. He is scholarly
and refined in his conversation, and altogether
a. most pleasing and fascinating companion;
His mind is stored with an inexhaustlble fund
of classic lore7and modern Continental, Eng,
lish and American literature, and a rich fund
of amusing anecdote. His dress, too; deserves
a note. His ordinary walking suit is made OF
corduroy-coat cut short, knee breeches, with
woolen hose, Alpine shoes, and corduroy, cap.
: The Colonel, who is now at the Western
House, resumes his march to-day for his home
in Virginia, through Illinois and Kentucky, to
settle up his affairs, preparatory to returning
West, which he intends making his permanent
home, so pleased is he with our country, and so
thoroughly convinced Of its ultimate greatness
and dimportance-St. Louis Democrat.

A FEARFUL RIDE.-The Washington Chron-
icle has the following: "Mrs. Pollard, propre-
tress of the st. Cloud Hotel, accompanied by
lady friend and their gentlemen escort, were
out horseback riding ON Thursday evening.
Mrs. Pollard rode fine, muscular, spirited an
imal, and when beyond the city limits her
saddle-girth became deranged. This caused
her horse to become at first reativc, and after
wards frightened, concluding the engagement
with a very energetic runaway. Darling off at
wild, full speed, the fair equestrian found her
whole strength insufficient to exert the least
influence upon him. Mazeppa was no more
powerlcss. For two miles he fled forward at
frigltful rate, leaving the other three far be-
hind, dashing past vehicles with reckless in
difference, and endangering his undaunted
mistress life and limbs. While at full speed
he espicd the arched entrance to a cemetery.
The gate was open, and through it he bounded,
the rider utterly exhausted in her efforts to
check him. A few more frantic leaps, and the
runaway came in collision with carriage, in
which sat two gentlemen, pallid with fright, for
they expected every moment to witness terri
bic accident But it was their good fortune to
aid in averting one. They succeeded in stop
ping the horse Just in time to break the force
of the fall of Mrs. Pollard, who was swooning
from exhaustion. Had it not been for their
Providential presence, she might have been
dashed to death on grave stone. AS it was,
she was thrown fainting upon grave, from
which she soon recovered, and returned to the
city without having received material injury.

the Southern people, so absolutely essential to
true reconstruction-M Y. Tribune.
The. views OF JUDGE ORR.-The views of
this gentleman, as reported by the Tribune
correspondent, will be read with interest by our
readers. Whilst we do not concur in all of the
Judges political speculations, we are free to
say, that We do recognize the truth of much
that he suggests. We regard Judge Orr's de-
votion to South Carolina as unquestioned, and
we regard him as a man of great good sense,
and Of considerable sagacity. A politician
once, he doubtless aspires now to the heights of
philosophic craftsmanship. From that stand
point we believe that he now views the situa-
tion, and we feel that his reflections are to.-be
invested with all the respect due to one who
has worthily filed several high official stations,
and in all has. earnestly labored for the welfare
of his native State Columbia ..Phsnir:

RICH BUT Nothing in practical
wisdom is more familiar to Americans than that
a mans hands are his fortune and that there Is
no patrimony better than good trade: Mon-
ey; however, sometimes turns peoples heads 80
that they forget this;
The late Col. Colt was himself a practical
mechanic. By his will he left to- his nephew
an. immense fortune. At the time of Mr.. Colts
death, the nephew was learning his trade in
his uncle's shop, working diligently in his over
halls by day, subject to the same rules as other
apprentices.
On his uncle's death he became millionaire (;
but choosing guardian to manage his prop
:erty, he continued his labor and served his ap-
premiership. Now, as he walks the rooms OF
his fine house, or drives handsome and costly
teams, he has the consciousness that if his rich
es take to themselves wings and fly away, he is
furnished with the means of getting an honest
livelihood, and may make fortune for himself.
He was greasy mechanic, and is not asham-
ed of it. Labor and its accompanying dirt are
not dishonorable nor degrading; laziness and
its almost necessary evils are disgusting and
destroying.
Dirty hands and sense of independence are
to be preferred.to kid gloves and a conscious
ness of being mere drone in the human hive.
Tools rust from neglect; wear out from use is
beneficial So with mans capabilities
ter wear out than let them rust

ROBERT E. LEE.-Yest it was reported
by telegraph that General Lee would pass down
the Charlotte, Columbia and Augusta railroad,
on his way to Florida Soon the report spread
from mouth to mouth, and by the time the train
was due, 5 o'clock p. m., Columbia was alive
with the joyful tidings. One and all were eager
to look again upon the noble features, the COM
manding mien, of the mighty champion of the
South-the greatest man of the age. Though
torrents of rain had been falling all day, and
continued to fall-and though scarce, Il fourth
of the crowd were enabled to secure conveyances
yet when the train arrived, the platform and
grounds adjoining the depot were thronged with
mass of eager and expectant faces.
Col. A G. Haskell waited upon the General,
in behalf of the citizens, and requested his ap-
pearance upon the platiorm-the crowd being
arranged in semi-circle around the hindmost
platform of the passenger coach, SO that all
might see. The noble hero stepped forth, and
was greeted with such shout of joyous recog-
milton as no other living man of the age could
elicit. Shout after shout arose, so that the in
troductory remarks by Col. Haskell, appropri-
ate to the occasion, were almost drowned.
.'Our first in war and in peace" he was styled,
and upon this the excited throng burst forth
again into prolonged hurrahs. The great man
modestly raised his hat and bowed, and re-
mained for a minute ;or two with his venerable
head uncovered, then quitely withdrew inside
the coach.
He was, evidently, deeply touched by the
manifestations of love and esteem with which
he was greeted The trembling lip and mois-
tened eye spoke the emotions that swelled that
breast-so dauntless in war-so responsive to
expressions of love.
The General is on his way to Florida to recu-
perate his health, which is very feeble, though,
in appearance, he is said 4 (by those who were
with him then) to be but little changed from
what he was on that memorable day at Apo
mattox.
We trust that the God of love will grant a
speedy restoration of strength to him who is so
dear to the millions of truly Southern hearts,
Columbia Guardian, 31st M.

A COOP Hr.-The Chicago Times gives
Congress a good lick over the shoulders of
Senator Revels, as follows:
The maiden speech" of the Ethiopian Sen
ator for Mississippi is said to have been "as
able and eloquent as anything delivered in
Congress for some time" This may be easily
believed If it had not been as able. aud as
eloquent as anything delivered in Congress fol
some time, it would have proven that the Leg
islature of Mississippi chose very inferior
Niger for Senator.

Watermelon Culture.

+ ). Wesley Barr, Esq, of Edgeheld, famous
watermelon raiser, writes to the Edgefeld Id
vertiser giving his plan as follows:
Take asoil that is not too poor. prefer
that of good character, with deep sandy soil
and q clay subsoil En- February or March
break the land deep with bull-tongue or
small shovel, SO as net to turn under the vege-
table mould. Aboutthe middle of April break
the land again deep and we'll, to and across.
Then lay off each way ten feet with long old
fashioned shovel pillow. In each check draw
out all the loose dirt to, the depth of eight or
ten inches and twelve in diameter. Then take
one peck or ten quarts of the best, strongest and
well-rotted stable (horse) manure, particularly
avoiding straw-or litter, and spread in the hole.
Then with the hoe walk round and round,
drawing in the top soil upon the manure, avoid
ing the incorporation or mixture of earth and
manure, until you have elevated o hill four
in diameter. Upon this hill drop four or five
seed, and cover one inch deep. In clay soil it
is needless toopen the hole so deep as in sandy;
from four inches to six is enough; all of the
other preparations same as in sandy soil.
When the seed come up Immediately break
the soil around the plant and when the third
hoe, thinning to two stalks. The work should
be done 50 as not to haye long. intervals from
one working to another, carefully keeping down
grass and weeds. When the vines commence
to run, thin down to one vine in hill. When
the vines have run eighteen inches each way,
they should be laid by with sweep. But
keep UP the hoeing constantly, being particular
not to move the vine nor cut the clingers, for
nature sends them out for a protection to the
vine against the storm.
When the vines commence bearing, don't
stop the hoe; work the surface underneath the
vine and to keep them bearing, it is necessary
to keep working them. In this way the same
vines will bear for months. Inever plant more
than one patch, and generally. have water
melons from the 10th of July until frost.
By the above plan, l have raised, in clay
land, watermelons weighing forty-odd pounds,
and in sandy, sixty pounds. In 1868 raised
them to weigh as high as forty-seven pounds
without enough rain from the time they bloom
ed until the melons ripened to wet a cotton
handkerchief
