order were raised, aud many appeals were
raised, and many appeals were made to the
valuable Senator to yield the floor ..just a
minute, !" that some things which could not
be omitted might be attended to before the
hour of adjournment; but no appeal could
touch the stony heart of Wilson. He talked
on, and Senator's went without dinner. Two
o'clock came and he talked on.
The President now turned back his watch
an hour under the pretext thatathe enrolled
bills were not all signed but the inexorable
Wilson still talked on. Sometimes he was
interrupted by some Senator asking him ques-
tions or raising points of order: but he gen-
orally turned them off by declaring that his
time was too precious to be consumed in an
swering questions there were twenty leading
points he said upon which he intended to
speak, but, as yet, he had spoken upon but
three of them. Three o'clock came and the
incorrigible Wilson still talked on the last
report of the committee on enrolled bills was
made, and the President signed the journal
while the Senator still continued to talk The
hands of the clock had passed and Senator
Wilson was beginning to make an argument
on the vexed question of the Virginia debt, "
which he modestly announced would take up
nine consecutive hours he hoped the audi>
ence would have patience and that the Sena-
tors would not interrupt him. President
Sperry now cast significant look at the other
Senators, then brought down his gavel with a
sharp rap and declared the Senate adjourned
sine die. Wilson maintained his position rn-
til he saw the Senators take their hats and the
President leave. the chair, when he turned
round and laughed; the audience cheered,
and the exhibition wound up by our friend
NJ. Laidley shedding tears of joy at the
defeat of the bill, and Col Swami and Sena-
tor Wilson embracing fondly like two lovers
who had been lost to each other for years.
The curtain dropped; the Legislature expired,
and the epitaph which Billy Pringle placed
over his pig would not be inappropriate over
the departed body of democratic Lawmakers,
.tWhen it lived. it lived in clover,
When it died, it died ali over"

"Why Didn't You Thpit on Il 2u

A good story has been told of hsping of
fcer in the United States army having been
yictimized by brother officer (whow was noted
for his cool deliberation and strong neryes,l
and his getting square with him in tue fol,
loving manner: The cool joker, the oaptain,
was always quizzing the lisping officer, a lieu
tenant, Of his nervousness.
tWhy," said he, one day, in the presence
of his company. nervousness is all nonsense
i tell you, lieutenant, no brave man will be
nervous"
"Well," inquired his lispiug friend, show
would you do, thpose she'll with an inch
futhes thould drop itthelf in a walled angle.
in which you had taken thelter from a CONS
pany of tharp-thootherth, aud whsre it was
thertain, If you put out your nothe, you'd get
peppered 2"
q. How Y said the captain, .winkiur at tie
circle, why, take it cool, aud spit ou the
fusee."
The party broke up, and all retired cxcert
the patrof The next morning number of
soldiers were assembled on tho parade, and
talking in clusters, when along came the Hsp-
ing lieutenant Lazily opening his eyes he
remarked:
81 want to try au experiment thjth mosu>
ing, and thee how extheedipgly cool you can
be-"
Saying this, he walked deliberately iat5.
the captains quarters, where FIRE was burn-
ing on the hearth. and placed in Its hottest
center powder canister, and instantly re-
treated. There was but one modes6f egress
from the quarters. and that was upon tho
battle-ground, the road being built up for
defence; the occupant took one look at the5
canister, comprehended his situation, aud In
moment dashed at the door, but il was
fastened on the outside. 4r q, y
Charley, let me out if you love mo T.
shouted the captain.
"Thpit on the canithter r. shouted he, in
return.
Not moment was to be lost he had at
first snatched up blanket to cover his egress,
but now, dropping it, he raised the window,
and out he bounded, sans cuottes sans every
thing but very short undergarment. and
thus, with hair almost on end, he dashed upon
full parade ground. The shout which
hailed him brought out the whole barrackS to-
see what was the matter, and the diguifed
captain pulled sergeant in front of him to-
| hide himself.
"Why didn't you .hpit on it Z" inquired
the lieutenant. - -
Because there were no sharpshooters in
front to stop retreat" answered the captain.
"Ail got to. thay, then, ith, I" said tho
lieutenant, i"thatyou might thafely have done
it, for there wathn't thingle grain OF pow.
| der in it."
The captain has never spoken of nervous,
| ness since.

The New Constitution.

A Charleston correspondent of the Wheel
ing Register, writing in regard to the work
of the Convention, says:
No similar instrument in this country will
be found provided with so many safeguards
against legislative and official corruption as
tho proposed Constitution Of this State.
But the work of the Convention is not vet
over, and it might be premature to attempt
further to foreshadow what their perfected
work may be. 1t is sufficient for me to say
that have never witnessed more indus,
trious, earnest and sincere body of men, or
men more bent upon the devotion of all their
faculties to the preparation of a safe and
wholesome Constitution of government They
may err in some of their provisions, for such
is the lot of humanity, but they will be errors
of judgment, and not of the heart, and if for
the moment an error be made, their sober
second thought generally brings them right.
If there be any defect in the system which
they will submit to the people, it will be the
rigid and unbending spirit of economy which
will mark all its provisions

Things we Like to See.

We like to see young ladies who are bitter
enemies kiss each other very affectionately
when they meet 1t reminds us of man
named Judas who lived several years ago.
We like to see fashionably dressed lady
promenading the streets wearing blue silk
dress, trailing yard behind her in the mud
it cleans the street SO nicely. We like to
see young men very polite to other young
ladies, who are scarcely civil to their sisters
at home-it proves that the lords of creation
are void of deception. We like to see little
boys come to church in the evening, and
amuse themselves by sticking pins in their
sleepy neighbors-it shows that they are not
burying their talents in the earth I! We,like
to see man invariably throw his newspaper,
boots and bat on the floor for his tired wife to
pick up-it is evidence that he remembers
the promise to "cherish her w We like to
see the choir spend the time during the di-
vine service in whispering telling stories-it
helps us to appreciate the sermon and convin.
ces us that they are capable of singing "with
the spirit and the understanding also r" We
like to see young ladies' keep their jaws in
constant motion endeavoring to masticate a
huge ball of chewing CUNT looks SO LADY,
like! We like to see man sporting fast
horses, while he owes the printer and gives
nothing to the minister-it looks honorable
There are many other things which we like
to see, but we forbear.

IF your income is SIS day spend but
four. IF it is one dollar spend eighty cents
If it is but ten cents spend nine. IF it is
three potatoes save half of one for seed
This is good advice, and if adapted by those
who are daily complaining of being ..close
run" aud .thard pushed" from the effect of
too common error, INDUCED in by great
many, of Giving beyond their means" it
would be much better than spending their
whole lives in the vain pursuit trying to keep
up with the "latest styles" thus requiring an
outlay each day of what they earn, to accom-
plish that object.
