"whsky Aies;" and their rubicund visages
seemed to justify the appellation.
But when such men as jovial and warm
hearted George Falls, occupy the position of
landlord in village taverns-men whose large
hearted, large-handed charity make them
forget selfinterest-they must expect, always,
to be crowded with summer friends, and bar
room goodlie company.
On this especial day, "Fallis Inn" had its
quota of guests Flitches of bacon and fried
ham, and savory vegetables-for which the
house was celebrated-loaded down the ta-
bles, already decked with gaily painted plates
and glasses of every imaginable variety, the
whtest of table.cloths and the shiniest ofcutle-
ry. Every wooden chair in the hall held a
guest. On the floor above, every apartment
was filled with permanent boarders or tran
sient customers. The upper hall was airy and
cool, and not nook or crany but showed forth
the virtue, frugality and cleanliness of the ac-
complished landlady.
Near a window, in one Of these upper cham
bers, full in the glowing sunset, sat young
man busily engaged sketching the hostess
twin babies that we're lying asleep in their
basket-cradle-plump, rosy and pretty as two
of Reubens' or Raphaels Cherubims. The
young artist had been attracted by their beau

Of sketching them and the cradle with its
treasures had been moved to his private room
for the purpose. For when did ever wo-
mans heart throb with pure motherly love,
that she was not proud of her darlings, and
vain of the admiration they excited
The artist himself was a picture; fair haired,
blue-eyed, with fresh, good-humored face,
long moustaches, pointed imperial, smiling
mouth-red and sweet as a womans-and a
debonair address that would have suited well
for the court of Charles I. "Confound Nc.
Donald! Why don't he come in, I wonder !!
Here I've been alone to-day, and half of yes
terday. Dem me if counted on this treat
ment! 1t is awfuly dull, all alone in this
dead town !" muttered the young man, as he
worked away on his canvas, while he thought
and fretted over the absence ofhis companion.
Finally, remembering he had eaten no dinner,
he hurried down stairs, and met Mrs. Falls
in the hall.
care my babies sleeping yet, sir ?" she
asked.
"Like angels, madam. have succeeded
in the outline to perfection. When they
awaken they are free, as 1 can finish the
sketch without them" Going to the office he
asked of his landlord: "Has my friend re-
turned YETI"
"Not yet, sir"
"Why, 1 confess am getting uneasy: Is
there any river or mill-pond, in which he
could drown himself? or any precipice, over
which he could cast his beloved self, in fit
of frenzy or despair?" ,
"No danger; hell come back all right,"
answered Mr.. Falls.
"But could he not lose his way in painless
woods ?"
"Pikes on every side, sir. But I'll send

said the landlord.

IMMIGRATION.

For the benefit of those who desire to en-
ploy the new labor that is now being intro.
duced into the State, and wish to know how
it can be obtained we insert the letter below:
"CHARLEsroN, S. c., Jan. %, 1874.
"Dear Sir-Yours of January 9th came
to hand. I can send you immigrants by the
1st of March, but if you really desire to have
them among you, it would be well to receive
them at any time during the year, if they
should continue to come. 1t would be a fatal
blow to immigration, if this movement, for
which I have worked for years, should stop
short in March. What shall do with the
people if they arrive from Europe in May or
June? Send them West and our own South
Carolina would be the loser! We all must
make small sacrifice to redeem the State. l
have organized several districts on the follow.
ing plan A gentleman of standing in this
district, charging nothing for his services, as l
do, takes the matter in band, collects the or
ders for immigrants from the farmers in the
neighborhood, and at the same time the money
to pay the passage from New York to place
of destination, which, in your case, would be
about fourteen dollars each. This money
may be deposited in Charleston to my order.
AS soon as the order for immigrants has been
received, 1 fill it as speedily as possible, draw.
ing money enough to pay passage, giving
every man an exact account of what he owes,
to be deducted from his wages. Many arrive
who have paid their passage to Charleston,
or part Of it; these, Of course, would only
owe the passage to the interior, and some pay
even that, coming among you free to choose
their future employers 1t is in the interest
of every one to treat the new corners vel, SO
they will settle permanently and draw their
friends and relations in Europe around them,
who will come next year prepared to buy
lands.
"Hoping to hear from you,
II am yours, truly,
F. MELCHERS."

MAL1GN1NG WoMEN.-There are many
men in existence who deem it no harm to
speak slightingly of women. According 10
their idea it is quite meet that the strong
should assail the weak. One of these robbers
of reputation received severe rebuke on a
recent occasion. At dinner, at which no
ladies were present, this man, in responding
to the toast "Woman," dwelt almost solely on
the frailty of the sex, exclaiming that the best
amongst them were little better than the worst,
the chief difference being their surroundings.
At the conclusion of the speech gentleman
present arose to his feet and said, IL trust the
gentleman, in the application Of his remarks,
refers to his own mother and sisters, not ours"
The effect of this just and timely rebuke was
overwhelming, and the maligner of women
was covered with confusion and shame.

were delivered reviewed, especially the amount
that it cost to alter the government arms; he

chases were then referred to, and it was said
