How TO GET OUT OF DEBT.-To a
young man in debt, Benjamin Franklin
gave the following advice: Make full
estimate of all you owe, and of all that is
owing to You. Reduce the same to note.
As fast as you can collect, pay over to
those. you owe. IF you cannot, renew
your note every year.. and get the best
security You can. 60 to business dill
gently; and be industrious; waste no idle
moments; be very economical in all
things; discard all pride; be faithful in
your duty to God, by regular and hearty
prayer morning and night; attend church
and meeting regularly every Sunday;
and do unto all men as you would that
they should do unto you. If you are too
needy in circumstances to give to the
poor, do whatever else is in your power
to do cheerfully, but if you can, help the
poor and unfortunate. Pursue this
course diligently and sincerely for seven
years, and if you are not happy, comfor-
table and independent in your circum-
stances, come to me and l will pay your
debts.

vate citizens of South Carolina. And it
is not the first time citizens of Georgia
have crossed the Savannah river to in
wade the rights of black men in South
Carolina. They have been doing it ever
since 1868 up to the present hour. The
edict has gone forth that they intend to
carry South Carolina, that they intend
to do it peaceably if they can but by vio-
lence if necessary, just as Georgia has
been carried and is to-day under the con-
troll of the Democratic party.

any libel upon the State of Georgia from
any newspaper.

A STRANGE IDEA.

''That death is the worst possible ca
Iamity that can befall human being"
Involuntarily these words sprang to our
lips as we read in an exchange an ac-
count of the death by violence, after
terrific struggle, of lunatic near Rose
burg, who, attempting to ravish
young girl, was killed by her brother,
the account concluding in these words:
SIT is regretted that no other means
could be used by which the lunatic's
life could have been saved"
Saved, for aOhat9 The question calls
to mind the view of the State asylum
for the insane, an institution we'll and
admirably conducted by its humane su-
perintendent and efficient wardens and
matron, and while we think with pride
of this refuge provided by a plying
commonwealth for her unfortunate sons
and daughters from whose eyes the
light of reason no longer shines, yet we
are constrained to think that there is
small cause for regret when death, with
kindly hand, unbars the portals of the
tomb and furnishes one with an asylum
whose walls will never resound with the
ring Of maniacal laughter, or the vaga-
ries of the mind diseased. True, we de-
plOre the necessity which compelled the
taking of this life by violence, but can
not join in the regrets above mentioned
that some means could have beeu
adopted whereby it could have been
saved.
Could even the mother, who Graded
his tender infancy upon her bosom
wish for the continuance of life tha
now raved within the walls of mad
house, and again for a brief season
roamed ungoverned and unguarded, I
terror to others, a burden to self
Twice had this man been an inmate o
the hospital for the insane, and twice
after a season of its strict but kindl,
discipline, had he been discharged.
When the question is, "Death or in
sanity" we say, Compare the rival
and the kinder CROWN" and when tn
former is victorious, be sure he is tn
kinder, and rejoice rather than regre
that he has established his permanen
: sway and taken to his silent bosom tn
wrecked life of an unfortunate fellow
creature, and set his tortured intelleC
free.

advice TO YOUNG LADIES. {"

Did you ever see a heading like unto
this before, girls OF course not. The
topic has been discoursed upon, it is
true, by every school-boy who has as
pired to literary attachments in the
land, for no one knows how many de-
cades; but, as each and all have ex-
horted the girls to stick to home and
household duties, how could they be
expected to read the fine homiIies in
dited for their special benefit?
The last chapter under this title that
has come under our notice, begins in
this high-sounding style: "Sir Isaac
Newton said that Life is a school, and
we are all scholars The remark is ap-
plicable to every yo1tng lady in the
land" Now, girls, don't go to being
inquisitive, and asking impertinent
questions. This is one of the very
things you are cautioned against farther
on in the chapter. Suppose the remark
doesn't apply to young ladies with any
more force than it does to young men ?
or that the old philosopher was solilo-
quizing, and, no doubt, mentally re-
ferring to the requirement. of knowl-
edge in middle life as illustrated by sci
entific pursuits in his own case? Never
mind. A few questions will upset the
whole theory upon which much windy
rhetoric is expended. They don't know
what they are talking about, and why
should you attempt to understand ab-
surdities that exhOrt you one minute tC
endeavor to excel in picking, preserv'
ing, cooking, washing, laundry
work, sewing, mending, sweeping, dust
ing, chamber work, etc., ETC., and the
next conjures you to keep your dres:
tidy, your apron white, your hands
soft, and your temper unruffied, ae
quainting yourself, meanwhile, witt
science and literature, so that you may
be a companion for your future hus
band. OF course you would like to sci
one of these opinionated wiseacres al
work at some of the multifarious duties
to which they so coOlly assign you, but
the botch they would make of it woult
only excite your pity. So let them tall
and write and relieve their feelings
while you pursue the even tenor o
your way, doing always the best yoI
can, and choosing your own avocation

WHAT THE LIPS TELL WITHOUT
SPEAKING.

Tell-tale lips need not always speak.
Physiognomists, than whom, as rule,
there are no more trying persons who
come into your home or office, speak
minutely of the various characteristics
of the person as revealed by the facial
expression, and one, speaking of the
lips, observes that clips become more or
less contracted in the course of years in
proportion as they are accustomed to
express good hunor and generosity or
peevishness and a contracted mind" !"
When we think for a moment of the eff
fects of ill-temper and greediness upon
the lips, we are inclined to agree with
him that habitual feelings of this char
acter might have lasting effects. Again
he says: "The mouth is the frankest
part of the face. 1t cannot in the least
conceal its sensations. We can neither
hide i'll temper with itor good. In a
wrong cause it will by an affectation OF
pleasant temper but make our observ-
ers resent the endeavor to impose upon
them. 1t is the region Of smiles and
dimples; of sharp sorrows and full
breathing joysi of candor, of reserve, OF
anxious care and full liberal sympathy"

ZONE OF THE MEN" ASKS CUES
TIONS,

To THE EDITOR OF THE NEW NORTHWEST:
Who will attend the special meeting
of the o. S. w. S. A, which convenes
at Salem on the 26th inst. ? 1t is not
expected that the men who are opposed
to the enfranchisement of women will
be their. Neither will the men who
are not particularly interested, but
simply willing that women should vote,
make any sacrifice to be there. Neither
will it be expected that the women who
are only enough interested to vote when
the ballot shall be imposed upon them,
will be at much expense or trouble to
attend; nor the women who do not want
to vote, "but have all the rights they
want"
Will the women who claim to be in
terested in the acknowledgements Of
women be there, to make their wants
known ? If any class of person are
there, certainly the latter should be.
One says, al cannot leave my household
affairs very conveniently" Another,
''I cannot leave my children with my
| husband very well, though 1 should
like very much to 60" Others have
not bought five yoke of oxen, but they
hare just married husband, therefore
they cannot go. Yet these same ones
can go to the mountains berrying, to the
coast pleasuring, ETC., ETC., and be gone
for days. If you are not willing to make
any sacrifice, do not expect US (men) to
do much. If you are interested, then
manifest it by coming up from all parts
of the State by the hundreds and show
the Legislature you mean business by
your presence and by sending in your
petitions to change the Constitution so
that sex will no longer be the qualifica-
ton for voters. You ought to have a
grand, big rally. All try to go and you
