How EANDERBILT STARTED-Every lit
tie while the newspapers contain an account
OF Nanderbilt's beginning Most Of these ac-
counts are apocryphal. His own statement Of
his FIRST real success is This: He vas Young
man on Staten Island Ho was master OF
rowing. He was athletic, strong, aud daring.
One night stranger came to the landing aud
wanted to be rOwed across to Gowann's. The
nightWas dark and stormy, ard the wind blew
gale. Not boatman could be found who
would leave. The landlord said. .sThere il
nobody who can row you over bu, Corn. Van
derbIlt'-for 30 he was called. /, was doubt.
full, he said, whether he would do it.y Van
derbilt was found, and, in answer to the re.
guest, replied: "Its pretty rough, but ifyou'H
give me ten dollars, lay down 10 my boat and
not stir, or do just what bid you, I'iI',ry it,
He rowed the mau over aud back in safety
As soon as he landed 1t Staten Island. tho
stranger said J: /" Young man, how would,yorl
ike to Tnn an opposition steamboat 2" Moth
ing would suit me better" was the reply
"Have you plack enough to obey orderz?''
said the stranger. 81 have" was the resp,nssy
Suppose l was 70 tell you to run into a sts1us
boat, what would you dog" Run into her.

storm that night on the island, aud Vauasr-
bilt entered on his well known career az a
steamboat man. ls'-7rf

SAVING cLAUsE.-Somo years AGO
there was good deal of excitement among
the people of certain town in C--couuty,
W. on the subject of religion, and almost
every man in the place was more or less awaE-
eued to sense OF his sinfuIness. aud made =
public declaration of his intention to lead n
different life. Among the rest wero three of
the principal men of the village, whom We
will call NJ. B., and c., who, being all present
at one of the meetings. took part in the pro-
ceedlngs, TO the great joy of the faithful. and
much to the astonishment of "the rest of man.
kind then and there assembled. NJ. rose
first, and having made general confession Of
his unworthiness. said' in conclusion, that he
had always Intended to be an honest man. but
that if he had Wrouged any one he was willing
to make full restitution. Il. followed, speak
ing in pretty much the same manner. G..
arose next, and spoke of his sins and wcked>
ness IN quite as strong terms as the Others
had done, but coming TO the restitution
clause, he remarked, with n caution eharac-
teristic OF himself, I'll there Is any man that
have defrauded, shall be most happy 70

Of the July crop was cut off. My .es-
innate of the crop, based not only on
my xn Judgment, but on that Of the
most practical farmers of the coun-
try, is, that it will not exceed one
half. We arc however, fortunate in
having good crop Of early corn, OF
which a considerable quantity was
planted. Tho late corn is worthless.
Many Of our farmers are in exstacies
over the red, rust-proof oat. We re-
gard it as blessing to us; immense
crops of it were raised in this corner
of the country last spring, and we are
sowing again extensively. Already
hundreds of acres have been sown.
We are beginning to realize the fact
that if VIC rely, even to a great ex-
tent. on cotton, and do not first secure
ample provision for man and beast on
the spot. we are sure to come out mi
nus. Recent rains have done great
damage to corn on low lands, ard
present appearances forebode further
evil. SALUDA.
