few days ago, was in many respects
an eyentful one, and his talent and Wig

was his duel, fought with the late Wiz

fought st Bath, Morgan county, and

I.oNEs'r LIVING.

The courage ot selt-contrOl exhibits
itself in many ways, but in none more
clearly than in honest living. Men
without the virtue OF self,denial are not
only subject to their own selfish desires,
but they are usually in bondage to 9th
,ys who are l:ke.mintled with them
selves. What others do, they ito. They
mus, live according to the artificial
standard of their class, spending like
their neishbors, regardless of the con
sequences, at the same time that all are,
perhaps, aspiring after a style Of living
hi, her than their means. Each carries
The others along with him, and they
have not the moral courage TO stop.
Yhsy can not resist the temptation OF
living high, though it may be al the
expense Of Others and they gradually
l.cume reckless Of debt, until II en-
,hralls them. In al this there is great
moral cowardicc, pusillanimity, and
want OF manly independence Of charao
ir
\ tight minded man will shrink
from seeming to be what he is not, or
pretending to he richer than he really
is, or assuming style Of living that his
circumstances will not justify. lie will
lave the courage to live honestly with
in his own means, rather than dlshon-
.s,ly upon the means Of other people
Tor he who incurs debts in striving 20
maintain style of living beyond his
income. is in spirit IS dishonest as the
man who openly picks your pocket.
TO many this may seem an extreme
view, but it will bear the StrIctest test.
Living at the cost Of others is not only
dishonesty, bat it is nntru;hiUlnrss IN
deed, as l!ing is in word. Strict adj
hcrence 10 even the smallest details OF
morality is the foundation of all manly

gay- We call the special attention OF
our readers 10 the advertisement, In an
other column, of the celebrated Stletf
Pianos. They have justly become the
general favorites of the Musical Public.
Performers like them on account Of
their eyeuness Of touch and singing
quality of tone. Their finish is in the
highest degree artistic, and their gener
al makeup is not surpassed by that Of
any other mandatory in this country.
In proof of this, it is scarcely necessary
TO revert to the fact, that through the
sinking of Tie Steamer Louisiana, some
time ago, one of these instruments was
submerged in the waters of the Chesa-
peake Bay, for a period of over four
months, and recovered in remarkable
state of preservation, thus fully estab-
fishing the truth of their assertion, that
none but the best materials are used
in their construction. Evidence Of their
durability is lurther furnished by their
extensive use in the numerous Schools
and other institutions, where they are
subjected to the severest tests We ad-
wise all who wish really fine instru-
ment to buy the Stieff.
They are also sole agents, for the
Southern States, of the "Matchless Bur
gett Ordans," which stand without ii
val. The gentlemanly courtesy and
fair-aealiug of the Messrs. Stieff will be
fully appreciated by all who call upon
them.

Marry has received from Jefferson

there was nothing to exhibit at the

there is an abundance of two kinds OF

manufactured there has been used IN

at Washington for halt century, tnat
brown sandstone not to be injured by
exposure to the weather abounds, That
valuable timbers are plentiful, and a
great amount of limestones exist III the

We saw three specimens OF this marble
at the Centennial rooms to-day, pre-
sented by Hon. a. Il. Boteler, who has
had them in his possession tor some

glass another is black and gray, such
as is often used for mantel work, and
the third is dove-colored with reddish

be. We will venture to say that few
people knew that marble existed IN
