/" La Loi Matiale Dams lie Sud-"

The iudgmero of foreigners respect
ing our affairsis often better than
our own. It iless jaundiced b. per

dict of histor: We therefore like

f" This GGiCe is Not in Funds"

The brood of evils which Radical
ism in this State has brought forth is
soon to be reinforced. To extortion
and virtual confiscation, the plunder
OF the Treasury, and the strargling
Of every attempt at enterprise o. de-
velopment by the white people of the
State, to grievous oppression and en-,
forced poverty is now to be added
Their exposure to the "restrlence
that walacth in darkness, and the
destruction that wastcth at MONDAY. ;"
This will be the legitimate conse-
quence OF the abandonment of the
quarantine as suggested in the sub
Joined article from the Ncers.
The startling announcement ap-
peared in the Columbia Union few
days ago, onthe authority of DR.. Leb-
by, the health officer Of The port OF
Charleston, that, owing to the want
of funds for quarantine purposes, he
will probably be obliged to raise the
quarantine from Georgetown to the
coast OF Georgia on the 18th July,
and DR.. Lebby, who has just return
ed from Columbia, repeats the state
ment, and says that all his efforts to
obtain any portion of the liberal ap-
preparation made by the last Legisla-
ture for the quarantine service have
utterly failed. He says that twenty
five hundred dollars is the minimum
amount required to maintain the
quarantine until next fall, and war
rant for that amount was drawn last
week by the Comptroller General, but,
on presentation to the Treasurer, it
was met with stereotyped reply,
{" No money in the Treasury" He
has since been making every effort to
obtain the money from the Treasurer,
and ne says he has been assisted to
the extent Of their power by Cover
nor Scott and Comptroller General
Neagle, but without success, and he
now sees no resource but to raise tne
quarantine, and abandon the coast to
it's chances of infection. The crew
of the quarantine boat at Bull River
have already got tired of waiting for
their pay, and abandoned the boat
last week, but Dr. Lebby has already
made private arrangements to pay
another crew for the present, at
least, and the quarantine is re-estab-
lished.
This outrage but adds another
count to the Indictment to which the
present State administration will have
to answer before God and the country.

Not at Home.

The Baltimore Gazette says" Gen.
Grant has given up his residence at
Washington, the supposed seat of the
National Government, and has taken
up his quarters for the summer months
at Long Branch, expecting only to
paw an occasional flying visit to the
Federal Capital. Heis the first Presi-
dent of the United States who thus
voluntarily abandoned his post in
search Of personal pleasures, and we
trust he will be the last. The people
who elected him imagined that he
would, in reasonable degree, at
least, attend to the business of the
office as his predecessors dii, and
never thought he would seize every
opportunity, no matter how trivial,
Of running away to indulge in all the
idle frivolities and questionable fol-
lies Of the day. If anything. should
tend to impair public confidence in
him, it is this incessant desertion Of
hisduties, and when November comes,
thousands will, by their votes, give
him permission to leave Washington
permanently, and in the futurs seek
his own pleasure without making the
nation pay for his frp)jcs.

does not talk to you overmuch, nor
fdget you with suggestions or fussy
attentions. An invalid suffers as
much from being over-nursed as from
neglect. She sees that you want for
nothing, but conceals from you how
your wants are supplied. At your
lowest, she inspires you with conf
dence: as you mend, her cherfulness
sustains you, and one look at her
bright face is like aglimpse Of heaven.
Universally astractive as they are,
how is it that nice girls are so rare?
They seem never to have been plen-
tiful. Even the poets sgive us few
records of any. Sweet Anne Page,
I imagine, was one. So was the,
heroine of Stockings Ballad upon
Wedding" Like to think. That
must have been nice girl in youth,
Of whom it was said by poet that
to know her was aliberal education
the sweetest compliment ever paid
to woman
But it will not do to venture into
this suggestive field and dip into
other poets, because after the poets
would come the novelists, and in the
discussion of their heroines we should
get beyond all bounds. But Edgar
Poe has eight lines addressed to
Frances Osgood, which so strongly
indicate that she was one Of this rare
order, and at the same time so tersely
express all the feelings one would
desire to convey.to nice girl. that l
will venture to quote them:
Wouldst thou be loved? Then let thy
heart
From its present pathway part not
Being everything which now thou art,
Be nothing which thou art not:
So with the world thy gentle ways,
Thy grace, thy more than beauty,
Shall be an endless theme Of praise,
And love-a simple duty"
To revert to our point: how is it
that nice girls always have been, and
now are, SO rare? Is'it because heart
is 50 much rarer than beauty? Or
is there some delusion in the female
breast as to what men admire in
women, that leads so many to assume
airs, to be naughty and unfemlnine,
or to sink into the slough of fastness ?
Other reasons may be assigned, but
probably the truth will never be ar
rived at. This, however, is not to be
gainsaid, that nice girls bear no pro-
portion whatever to those whose gen
eral bearing might be held to justify
the greet Hazlitt in his extraordinary
views Of the gentIer sex. 1t is re-
corded of him that when introduced
to some young girls, they neither
laughed nor sneered, nor gigged nor
whispered; but they were young
girls. So he sat and frowned, blacker
and blacker, indignant that there
should be such things as youth and
