AM Appeal

IN BEHALF OF THE DESTITUTE ORPHANS
OF SOUTH CARoLINA.
notwithstanding the applause of the
many and seeming appreciation of that
noble charity. the Palmetto Ophans'
Home, so much needed and so we'll
conducted, located in ColuEbia-with
the good it has already accomplished
in rescu;ng from want, ignorance and,
in many cases, from haunts of vice,
destitute orphans-we are sorry to ad-
NIT that such an institution has been
crippled in its sphere of usefulness and
allowed to languish for wait of aid ne
cessary TO it's successful career; and
that the support and instruction of the
present happy family of orphans shell
tered within its walls should be allowed
to depend on but few contributions.
However willing those few may be to
devote their energy and means in aid
OF the enterprise, they are. unable
themselves to carry the entire burden,
consequently forced to appeal to the
people at large to assist in the good
work OF establishing the Palmetto Or
phans' Home on permanent basis.
The Home is not sectarian or demo-
minational. The Trustees consist of
members from the different branches
Of tho chnrsh. The children are reli.
giously trained at homo and in the
several Sunday schools; during the
week they are instructed by O compe-
tent teacher, with special reference to
future usefulness. It is now ques.
ton whether or not such an institution
in orr midst. based entirely upon cha
rity and love, with no paid official. be
supported, or shall it. for want of
means, be abandoned? and tue or
phane now supported and educated
therein be thrown npon the world
destitute and friendlcss.
Render. il you favor the former pro-
position, come at once 10 the rescue.
Donations of money. provisions and
clothing will be acknowledged in the
"Orphans' appeal" neat family
paper, published in the interest of the
Home, at 81 per annum. All commu-
nications should be directed to pal.

Tho Alligator Donlestlcaicd,

Inmany parts Of the Southern States
men have so far conquered their antipa-
thy towards these reptiles as TO tame
them and keep them in confinement,
Iii this semi.domestic state the beast is
said to exhibit more intelligence than
would be expected from its appearance.
An alligator was once the cause OF n
curious case being Tried atSew Orleans.
A young lady brought IN action against
q neighbor for keeping an alligator in
his yard, asserting that the beast was
OF extraordinary size and ferocity, that
she had frequently occasion to enter
his premises, aud that whenever COM
PEELED to do SO, she was in fear OF her
life. The defendant, who lad been
kept arrested, being required TO plead,
stated TINT he keptthe animal as kind
OF house dog, or night Waterman, and
that unless provoked, It was a quiet,
peaceable reptile furthermore, that
the plaintiff had been in the habit Of
teasing the alligator, and exciting his
anger by tickling him in the ribs with
a long pole, throwing brickbRts at him,
and on Quo occasion going so far MS to
scar his back with q ted.hot iron. Upon
this tho defendant WIS discharged,
while the lady was bound over to keep
the peace towards the alligator and lis
owners. The reporters on the New Or
leans press do not inform us whether
tho alligator wcpt when its buck was
scared with q hot iron; but we are able
to assert that, although Shakespeare in.
forms us that the "tsars OF itare wet, "
their lachrymal founts have been
sought in vain BY cruel though some.
what scientific planters, who have ao.
tually squirLed the Juice and blown the
smoke OF tobacco into their eyes, in
order to test the truth Of the old fable.
