The Per Diem Question.

The Walhalla Keowee Courier, i'm urg-
ing measures of economy upon the Leg
islature, revives the per diem question as
follows:
We would like to see the pay of the
Legislature reduced TO ante war figures,
and see men go to, the Legislature from
motives of patriotism. It may be said
that officers cannot live at the ante war
fees and salaries, but this is not true,
They can live and prosper at them, and
there will he No dear.h GO sc::.
to serve the State and all the counties
In 1859, when we applied for the bar, we
paid for twelve days board at Hunt's
hotel, $50, being at the rate of $3.50 PEI
day. Members of the Legislature then
paid 90 per day, and received So per day
Good board ut hotels in Columbia can
now be had, fires and lights included, by
the week, at $l0, and at private houses al
81 TO 49,, varying by the day at from 81
to 81 .43 per day. Legislators can, there.
fore, better afford to serve now ut 80 than
t..e;' y ce::i. before before The the wiz. During the
Perry Legislature, members received 81
per day, and board at hotels was 81 pei
dey, and at private houses from So tc
AS to The salaries and fees of other off.
GERS, there is no reason why they shocld
not be pus IS low as before the war. The
prices of all necessary articles of clothing
pToviuions, &C., are lower than before the
war, coffee excepted. Calico is much
lower; sheetings, shirtings and all cotton
goods are lower. There Is no reason fol
extrayagant fees and salaries, unless it b.
desired TO keep the people poor. Let tn:
Legislature, then, abolish sill useless
offices. and next to that reduce the pa,
OF Ill officers to sum commensurate
with their services. The people are dis
tressingly poor, and their impoverishet
condition imperativcly demands economy
and reform in every branch of the gov
eRnment.

THE GREAT WALL OF CHINA.-The

made 2o0y years before the time of Christ.
In building this immense stone fence to

Something Abomt. Tnsests.

An old friend Of mine, an enthusiastic
philo.apiarian, told me that being at q
friend's house one dry summer, when all
the field flowers were neaely scorched up,
he saw Thousands of bees busy In field
of clover then in bloom.
II wish my bees we're here" said my
friend.
Probably they uto," replied the gen.
tlemau.
"What, at forty miles, distaucet'
eyes" said his friend. "On your re-
turn home t-edge the hacks of your bees
With -four as they issue from the hives In
the morning, and we shall see.'
This was done, and his friend wrota to
him directly: There are plenty of your
white jacket bees here in the cloyer.n
But whatever is the fact with bees, ants
follow their noses much moro than their
eyes. In my garden saw o train OF ants
tract, and descend BY i another. sn Asin Iae as.
cending they passed betwcsa sws small
shoots that sprung from the bole, I
bark. The ants did mot sea this obstruc-
ton with their eyes, but ran bump
against 1t, and stood still, astonished.
A1ooN ~ StNV0 vi utlu tuue Dttn buu-
denly. stope cd, and were anxiously search
Ing about for passage. By various sue
cessive starts forward, they eventually
got around the obstruction and reached
the track on tho other side. The line Of
scent was renewed, and thenceforward,
on arriving at the barricade, thoy went,
without moments hesitation, by the
circular track. ! then took my penknife
and pared away piece of the outer bark
on the open bole where the ants were de-
scending. The effect was the same.
The scent being taken nway, the ants
came to dead stand, and there was the
same confounded crowd, and the same
spasmodic attempts to regain the road,
which being effected In the aame way,
the scent was carried over tho sllaven
part Of the bark, and, the train ran on as
freely as before.-&. Nicholas.

WHY BLIND THE HORSE 7AWe never
could see what vice or defofmity lay in n
horses eye that should make it necessary
to cover it up and shut out it's owner from
ut ieaat two.thirds of his rightful vision.
The theory that horse is less ant to be
frightened when shut out from every-
thing behind him, we suspect to be q
fallacy, else saddle horses and war horses
would be duly blinded. Every horse is
as familiar with his own carriage as with
his own tail, and, 80 fiF as his "personal"
fortitude is concerned, is no moro dis
turbed at being pursued by one than am.
other. AS for other Scare crows that
come behind, they are most familiar to
the animal, and the more fully the horse
can perceive them the more quietly does
he submit to their approach. Then it is
pity to cover up one of the most bril-
liant features of this meat brilliant crea-
ture. The hnrse has boriic such a;hand
in the civilization of this rough. and
tumble world that It seems not 60 much
cruelty as o discourtesy, as we'll as q
disgrace, to hide his form with embar-
RAISING toggery. No wonder We estimate
the force in the world as horse power :
no wonder the Romans and Germans,
each in their own language, designated
their aristocracy as riders; no wonder
their descendants made chiya!Fy syno-
nym for their highest virtues. Let the
horse be given his due, aud unblinded.--
