stefan writes the following sensible adj
vice: My profession has thrown me
among women of all classes, and my
experience teaches me that God never
gave man greater proof Of His love
than to place woman here with him.
My advice is: go and propose to the
most sensible girl YOU know If she
SAYS Yes tell her how much YOUR
income is, and from what source deriv-
ed and tell her YOU will divide the last
shilling with her, and that YOU will love
her with all your heart in the bargain.
And then keep your promise. My
word for it, she will live within your
income; and to YOUR last hour YOU will
regret that You didn't marry sooner.
Gentlemen don't worry about feminine
extravaganza and feminine untruth.-
Just YOU be true to her-love her sin
cerel y-and more fond, faithful, foolish
slave you will never meet anywhere.
You won't deserve her, | know. But
SHE will never know it. Now, throw

An On,inous Outlook.

Columbia, Dec. 5.-All day yester-
day special trains were arriving here,
bringing bodies of armed men, nearly
all with rifles. They have their blank
cts rolled around their necks and their
haversacks slung, and they look very
little different from the confederate sol
diers with whom we were once so IA
miliar. They have been Quartered in
the spacious fair grounds buildings and
in the public halls of the town. There
are only about 400 soldiers in the city.
Not less than 5000 members of rifle
clubs are here.
The Days Doiags.
This morning special constables re-
placed the troops at the entrance of the
state house, and acted under the orders
of Chamberlain. The troops are still
retained as protection to the COVER
nor.
The senate and house, in joint ses-
sion, after the passage of concurrent
resolution, canvassed the gubernatorial
vote. Edgefield and Laurens, which
gave Hampton 4,300 majority, were
first thrown out, when the Democratic
senators retired. The canvass showed
Chamberlain to be elected by 3,044
votes. Adjourned.
1t is expected that Chamberlain will
be inaugurated tomorrow.
The Democrats are still in session,
with q membership of SO who hold GER
tifcates from the state board.
Hampton spoke this evening, declar-
ing that he intended to be governor.
The supreme court heard argument
on the application for q mandamus
compelling the secretary Of state to de-
liver the returns to Speaker Wallace.
The papers were taken under advise
ment.
Argument on the quo warranto, re-
quiring the Republican electors to show
by what authority they cast the vote,
will be heard tomorrow, when the
electors meet.
