The HEALTH OF THE C1TY.-There is

fever to-day, says the Charleston Neus,
Of the 1lth, except that only one death
from that cause has taken place in three
days. For the twenty-four hours end
ing at IL M. yesterday no deaths of any
kind were reported. There is some Of
the harmless. though painful, break
bone fever in the city, but case of gen
uine yellow fever is Us rare as ali honest

A despatch from B. D. Hasel. Esq,
the General Freight Agent Of the Great
Southern Freight Line at New York, an

the Board of Health of New York are
so satisfied Of the exaggerated reports
of the health OF Charleston. that all the
Charleston steamers will, after the usual
examination at quarantine, be permitted
to go directly to their wharves, at Pier
70, North River, and discharge cargo.
There we're 35 deaths for the week end

Rev. VIM. g. PLUMER. D. D.-This
distinguished minister preached twice in
the First Presbyterian Church on last
Sunday. The congregation was, on each
OCCASION, very large. At night the aisles
were filled with benches, the lecture
room accommodated many persons, and
many more were unable to get within
hearing distance. DR.. Plumer preached
with earnestness and eloquence most
impressive, and we have rarely seen poo
pie moro solemn and attentive. Tho
friends of the doctor were pleased to SEQ
that he has lost mono Of his old fire and
vigor. and arc encouraged to hope that
he will have much longer lease Of his
nseful life. Richmond Dispatch.

THAT TIDAL WAvE.-The great tidal
wave" which some papers have ''evolved
from their inner conciousness'' rs to tnke
place on October 5th, and hnvo credited
TO Agassiz as prediction, is creating
quite as much interest on some parts of
our Atlantic coast as the second advent
representations Of Cummings and Mil
lor. It is now less than month to the
time when this great rush of waters will
be upon US, from Florida to Muine, and
1t is high time we were making prepnrn-
tions to receive it. On another similar
OCCASION, namely, the first great deluge,
our ancestor, Noah, had warning of
many years. Considering, therefore, the
extent Of the expected food, our notice
is very short one. According to the
alleged calculations of the learned pro-
fessor, this wave is to sweep the whole
Atlantic coast, ''to the height of fifty
feet or more, on the night OF the 9th or
the morning of the 9th of October. !"
We should think some folks along shore
would be likely to get wet, under the cir
eumstances. Will not the 'great deep
give up" much that is buried beneath it's
turbid waters on the occasion? It was
the topic oil over Charleston on Tuesday.
Boats are at q premium, and prudent
folk are anxioualy casting about for "re-
served seats upon lofty buildings,
steeples, telegraph poles and similar
Coigns OF vantage.

JUDGE G. B. FARMER COOP Ar
PorNTA1ENT.- the late Executive
appointments, We notice that Of Mr..
Charles Barring Farmer, to be Judge Of
the Second Circuit, uice Judge q. Plutt,
deceased. Mr.. Farmer is q nativo Of
Colleton, and one of the old landlords Of
the County. Soon after completing his
education, he began tho study OF law,
and for over eighteen years has been a
practioing lawyer at tho Colleton bur.
For number of years before tho war,
he held the position of Commissioner in
Equity, and discharged the duties Of
This important post with an ability and
courtesy which gave universal satisfac-
tion. After the war, he served for u
time as District Judge for Colleton, but
has since resumed the practice of the
law. He is also engaged in planting in
the lower part Of the County. Judge
Farmer is Democrat of liberal views,
and his character, in public and private
is unimpeaohed. He is now about forty.
seven years of age, and has large
family i'll Walterboro. His appointment
will, no doubt, be advantageous to the
interests of the State, and give sntisfac-
tion to all parties in the circuit.

.
Mayor, prior to the question being taken
on the adoption of the report, I desire
to present the following protest against
tho erection OF new market, Which 1
hopo will be read by the Clerk. (rhe
protest md names Of signers were read J
You will observe that the protest bears
the signatures OF four.ffths of the re-
sponsible taxpayers of Columbia, and
We should not pass over their protest
lightly. It should be considered seri-
ously. They rocite in their petition
their assent to the building of new city
hall. and an addition to the present
market, if necessary. Would it not be
best to delay building new market for
the present? It is too much to take upon
ourselves just now. I agnin repeat, that
this strong protest of onr citizens should
be- carefully considered, for it is npon
them and their friends that wo may have
to depend for the ways and means to
finish new market. / am an advocate
Of improvements, and wish we could
build tho market, but deem it proper
that we should forego either tho hall or
tho market.

a Happy Politician.

If there is happy man in Wash
ington, that man is Schuyler Coliax.
Politics are getting rather grim and
rancorous. Many of the Republi-
can leaders 90 about with hrows
knitted and teeth firmly set. There
is perplcXity in the air and in mems
hearts. Old party companions are
saying hard words OF each other.
Then, again, there are some who
have a tired, worn look, rs if the af-
fairs of State were to them what the
Biblical grasshopper is to the man
of many years. Now, bv what cy-
plot of selt-discipl;ne is it, or by
what felicity Of temperament, t,.ai
Mr.. ColtaN seems AS jolly, as light.
hearted, and as fresh IN face, AS a
boy just let o., of school? He is Il
thorouron-paced Politician; and in
..ncse troubles he boldly takes sides.
lie is devoted Republican; and
from the storm that is impending,
he cannot help infcrring trouble to
the party. Moreover, though his
official position is commonly spoken
of as somewhat more ornamental
than laborious, he is in reality Il
very lahorious officer. In spite OF
all, however, he keeps as jovial and
as young as ever. Life uses him
kindly. And he uses life kindly.
He is that rarest Of politicians-a
satisfied one. He sticks to it that
no possible induccmcnt shall keep
him from retirement at the end OF
his Vice Presidency. And then, he
saws, he means to swing up his hat,
and be jollier and more contented
than ever Letter 70 RYooklyn Ur,

tions on some Of his kin, he went on
to say that perhaps some folks
might be profited by it. Everybody
was not alike. But he didn't want,
when he was dead and gone, to have
folks fumbling over his private feel
ings, and he didn't mean to give
them a chance.
That was the last of my Journal.
But there is quite another kind
of journal. OAe may trace, from
day to day, the mere facts of per-
sonal history, the proceedings of
the farm, or the books read, visits
made or received, the events in so
ciety, the conversations with men
of mark, the facts Of the weather,
the seasons, the aspects Of nature,
and in short a journal for knowl-
edge, in distinction from feeling,
might be kept with great profit. It
will be likely to cultivate habit
of accurate observation or reading.
One who attempts to write down
what he knows, soon finds out wheth-
er he knows it or not. 1t will be
usefu! also in forming the habit Of
expressing ones opinions with facil-
ity and felicity. But in all eases, a
journal, if kept at all, should be kept
with carcfulness. One should study
thoroughness, and never allow an
imperfect sentence or bungling
statement.
Do less, and do it well, rather
than do much, and do it poorly.
Yes-a journal of facts and Of
real knowledge; but not a journal
Of feeling.

Swift's parrot, which was great
pet with the whole family. One
day Polly managed to open her cage
and get away, to the great conster-
nation OF the household. After great
search, some one found Polly in the
garden on the top of an apple tree,
The welcome news was commnnica-
ted to the Dean, who, with the
whole of the inmates, rushed ont at
once, accompanied by DIR. Vaughan,

said. "Let us pray"

And in all lands beneath the sun,
Who so hath eyes to see may see
The tokens of its unity.
No scroll of creed its fullness warps,

In Vedic verse, in dull Koran,
Are messages OF good to man;
The angels to our Aryan sires
Talked by the earliest household fires.
Nor doth 1t lessen what He taught.
Or make the gospel Jesus brought
Less precious, that His lips retold
Some portion of that truth of old;
Denying not the proven seers,
The tested wisdom of the years;
Confirming with his own impress
The common law of righteousness.
We search the world for truth; we Gull

From craven stone and written scroll,
From all old flower fields ofthe soul;
And. weary seekers of the hest,
We come back laden from the quest,
To find that all the sages said

And all our treasure of old thought
In His harmorsious fnllness wrought,
Who gathers in sheaf complete
The scattered blades of Gods own wheat,
The common growth that maketh good

Wherever through the ages rise
The affairs of solf-sacritice.
Where love its arms has opened WIDE,
Or man for man has calmly died.

"a French Captain, disguised as a

as to the strength and position of
their forces. On his return to the
French lines he met three Prussian
spies, whom he recognized as such
bv having seen them III conference
with some German officers, and who
were bound for the French camp.
