men should no more sit together under the
droppings of his sanctuary. But, even with
the possibility of being tickled before their
eyes, the ladies refused to be separated, and on
the very next evening all sat together. The
preacher was indignant, and brought the male
portion of his congregation before justice OF
the peace. A jury was demanded, and no juror
should be member of the church. Three
days the trial lasted, but at last the oppressed
went free, and now in church they tickle each

SHALL WE MEET AGAIN ?-The following
is said to be one of the most brilliant articles
ever written by the lamented George d. Prem
tice:
"But the fiat of nature is inexorable. There
is no appeal for relief from the great law which
dooms us to dust. We flourish and fade as the
leaves of the forest, and the flowers that bloom
and wither in day have no Trailer hold on life
than the mightiest monarch that ever shook the
earth with his foot steps. Generations of men
will appear and disappear as the grass, and the
countless multitudes that throng the world to-
day will tomorrow disappear as the footprints
on the shore.
"Nen seldom think of the great event of
death until the shadow falls across their own
path. hiding from their eyes the traces of loved
ones, whose living smiles were the sunlight of
their existence Death is the greatest antago-
mist of life, and the cold thought Of the tomb
is the skeleton of all feast. We do not want
to go through the dark valley, although its
passage may lead to Paradise; and with Charles
Lamb, we do not want to lie down in the grave,
even with princes for our bedfellows.
'cIn the beautiful drama of Ion, the instinct
of Immortality, so eloquently uttered by the
death of the devoted Greek, finds deep re-
sponse in every thoughtful soul. When about
to yield his young existence sacrifice to fate,
his beloved Clemaptha asks if they shall not
meet again, to which he replies Il asked that
dreadful question of hills that seemed eternal
of the clear streams that flow forever-of the
stars among whose fields of azure my raised
spirit hath walked. As look upon thy living
face, feel that there is something in thy love
that cannot really perish. Weshall meet again,
Clemautha'

CAPTAIN LEWIS RANDoLPH.-We were
shocked to find at the depot in Charlotte, this
famous scout of Lees army dying of consump-
ton. He had been spending some time at
Aiken, S. c., and was trying to reach his home
in Virginia to die there Captain Randolph is
the great grand son of President Jefferson, and
nephew of General G. w. Randolph, late Con-
federate Secretary of War. He inherited the
stalwart figure, the iron constitution and the
great physical strength of the Jeffersons. He
always selected the darkest, coolest and most
inclemcnt nights for his visits to the enemy's
camps. Many of his perilous adventures e1-
celled the widest incidents of fiction. General
Lee gained from him much of that information,
which 80 often baffled the enemys plans. On
the most terrible night we ever remember to
have known Captain Randolph crossed the
Rappahannock below Fredericksburg and went
into Burnsidc's lines. After weeks Absence he
came back with full knowledge of the strength,
positions and plans of the Federal General
him with "the powerful ield-glass." General
Bradley T. johnson mentioned in his report of
I'd Manassas that the Confederate line in the
rairoad-cut got out of ammunition and fought
the enemy with rocks. On this occasion Cap
tain r. struck Yankee on the forehead and
killed him dead This was but one of his many
marvellous feats of strength. To think of such
man dying with consumption The once
gay, light hearted, chivalrous athlete dying. OF
consumption on railway train dying, but
talking sweetly of his Saviour, and joyfully of
his hopes of blessed immortality Not q
cloud darkening his bright vision Of heaven
not drop of bitterness in the cup the Father
gave him to drink. Well might the unwilling
seer be forced to exclaim: "Let me die the
death of the righteous, and let my last end be
like his p'-tSouthcrn Home.

Among the many flowers of delightful

- Among the many flowers Of delightful
fragrance there are but seven varieties whose
odor is used by perfumers in the preparation of
aromatic and essential oils. The rose, jessa-
min, orange and cossic, yield pure essential oil.
The violet, jonquil and turberose, yield their
fragrance by process of maceration in fine oil.
There are few other flowers, the mignonette
lilly, heliotrope and those of decided fragrance
which are sometimes employed in the latter
way, but the fragrance yielded from the flower
is SO small that art has initiated the peculiar
odors by an exquisite blending of others.
The French chemists have brought this
science of imitation 10 absolute perfection.

The CosT OF GROWING CoTToN.-A cores
pondent of a Manchester England paper, un-
der date of January 18th, prints the following
extract from letter received by. the writer
| from a Southerner, "who has spent all his life
in the cotton States, and thoroughly knows the
South and its peoples"
am informed by planter running three
large plantations that he can raise cotton
at &c. per pound-a low estimate, think
as it is generally estimated at 12c. (sixpence y
but, with abundance of fixed labor, l be-
lieve it can be raised under 10c. This refers
to Alabama and Georgia, in this neighborhood.
In Mississippi, Arkansas and Texas, where the
soil will yield more than the producer can pick,
it should not cost above &c., If cotton can be
raised at &c., as is here stated, we may depend
upon it that planters, having netted fully zoe.
this year. will put more ground under cotton
than they did last, and I think twenty per cent.
not all an unlikely increase. The only circum-
stance that will deter them from greatly in
creasing their production is the knowledge that
if they grow 100000 bales they will net less
money for it than if they grew 5000 900 bales,
and their succeeding years chance of good
price would also be injured.
This next season the new era of cotton plant
ing is about to be more fully developed, and
proof given that free labor whether white or
black be employed) is followed by much better
results than under the old system of forced la
bor Not only is free labor more productive
from the employees working better, but it is
cheaper. Formerly, good field hand cost at
least $1,000, and was generally held on borrowed
capital, on which ten per cent. interest was paid.
This gives s12O per annum. Keep may be ta-
ken at another $40 per month, or $12O; cloth
ing and medicine, $40; and allowance for in
surance and waste of strength, say79 per cent,
or 500, las if the negro died under the old sys-
tenn he was total loss) This gives us $3.50,
or 970 per annum. Now the negro owns him
SELF his wages calculated fully are are SIS per
month keep, say $40; in all, $500, EGO per
annum The conclusion seems reasonable,
therefore, that as planters in former years made
large fortunes with middling Orleans ruling at
Cd. to 3d. in Liverpool, and with the wasteful
system of borrowing, they can now, when they
have capital of their own to work on, afford to
sell at these rates, and find cotton pay them
handsomely. Cotton planting is so profitable
that the tide of immigration into the more
southernly cotton States will steadily continue
increasing.

is supposed-one charge striking him in the
face, as he looked from the window the two
fremen were also slightly injured. Both of
Mr. Gribble's eyes were put out, and his face
so disfgured as to be unrecognizable. After
firing, the man walked short distance when
he stopped and reloaded his gun. As soon as
possible the train was reversed and backed to
Columbia, where the wounded man was proper

tilted, when he Immediately summoned posse
and proceeded to the spot where the outrage
was committed. Tracks were discovered and
followed up road leading into the Winnsboro
road, directly opposite the residence of Mr.
Hornsby, about three miles from Columbia.
As the tracks corresponded with the shoes of
Mr. VIM. Hornsby, the Sheriff arrested him
and brought him to Columbia-Mr. Il. signify

JOSH BILLINGS ON CoURTsHIP.-Courtin is
a luxury it is the pla spell of the sole. The
man who has never courted has lived in vane.
He has been blind man among landscapes,
he has been def man in the land of hand Or
gans and by the side of murmerin canals.
Courtin is like two little springs of water that
start out from under rock at the foot of a
mountain, and runs down hill side by side,
singing, dancing and spaterin each other, ed
dyin and frothin, and Easkadin, now hiden un-
der the bank, now full of shadder, bimeby they
jine and then 60 slow. am in favor of long
courtin ; it gives the parties chance to find
out each others trump cards. 1t is good e1er-
else, and is just as innocent as five marino
lambs.
=
Perhaps it is best should state sum good ad-
vice to the young men who are about to court
with view to matrimony as it was.
In the first place. young men, you want to
get your system all right; then find young
woman who is willin to be courted on the
square.
The next thing is to find out how old she is,
which you can do by asking her; and she will
sa she is 10 years old, and this you will find
will not be far out of the wa
The next is to begin moderate, sa once every

creasin the dose as the pashent seems to re-
quire.
1t is fl1st rate way to court the girls mother
little on the start, for there is one thing a a
woman never 3espiscs, and that is little good
courtin if it is done on the square.
After the fust year you will begin to like the
biziness.
There is one thing always advise, that is to
not swap photographs oftener than wqnst every
16 daze, unless you forget how the gal looks. !,
Occasionally you want to look sorrow and
d@g in your wind as tho you had pain this
JYil set the gal to teezin you to fine out what
ails you
will keep your religion in tune, and if your gal
happens to be there by accident, she can ask
you you to go home with her.
AS a general thing wouldn't brag on other
girls much when was courtin. 1t might look
as though you knu tew much.
If you court three weeks in this wa, all the
time on the square, if you don't ga it is the
sleekest time of your life you can go to the
cheat store and get measured for plug hat at
my expense and pay for it.
