charge their duty to the best of their
knowledge and ability, and proceed to
"equalize the valuations of real prop
erty among the several Counties" of
the State. (AA. 1874, 63l, Section
64)
The action of this Board is re-
ported to the General Assembly at its
next session, and, untH accepted and
confirmed By its adoption, no tax is
levied or collected upon it. The Gen.
eral Assembly may adopt it in whole
or in part, and by joint resolution
may direct the Comptroller General to
rate any County differently from the
rate reported by the Board. In this
case there is no reassessment, but the
instruction of the tax levying power is
speedily carried out through the
Comptroller-G Generals Office and Office
of the Auditor of the County affected.
This summary brings out the salient
facts that the State Board have not
yet affected, in any way, the assessed
value of property in South Caroline.
Their decision does not touch the
assessment on which taxes have just
been paid, nor does it become opera
tive for the succeeding fiscal year,
beginning this month, until it shall
have been approved and confirmed by
the Legislature.
We shall next submit az official re-
port of the proceedings of the Board,
and show how far they have raised the
valuation Of property for purposes of
taxation,

LITTLE CHILDREN.-PeopIe who
habitually put little children out
of their hearts, and close their
doors upon them, have no idea
how much comfort they set asid8
what pleasure, what amusement.
Of course the little creatures med
die with things, and leave the
traces of their fingers on the wall,
and cry, and "bother" little;
but when one gets in the way OF
it, as mothers and other loving
relatives do, those things become of
minor Importance. They say such
pretty things, and do such funny
things; the touch Of their little
hands is so soft; the sound Of their
little voices SO sweet; their faces
are SO pretty their movements
so graceful and so comical. The
whole family goes baby. mad-and
it is no wonder. No book was
ever written that was half so in
teresting as a little child that is
learning to talk and to think, that
is developing from tiny animal
into a being with conscience
and a heart.
Parents who cram their chill
dren into an upstairs nursery, in
company with a nurse, while they
"go into society y old bachelor
uncles who always call some
one to take away that trouble
some one if he scrambles into the
study; or aunts who detest chill
dren because they climb upon
ones lap, and rumple aounces and
tear laces, are all losing more than
the smiles and bows Of people
who care nothing for them. The
most important business affairs,
or the most immaculate toilets
cane never repay them for the
sweetest thing is a little child
when it has learnt to know and
love me.

Come to me darling, without thee I'm lonely
By day and by night think Of thee only,
By day and by night in my dreams lam with
thee,
Nothing but dreams, yet happy they make
me.
Come to me darling, my sorrows you tighten,
My heart and my life, your presence doth
brighten.
Come in thy womanhood, so pure and so
lovely.
Come in thy loveliness, so tender and wo'
manly.
Come to me love, in the early hours of morn
ing,
When the birds begin to sing, and the flowers
adorning
The bosom of nature, lift their pure, graceful
heads,
And distribute their perfume through the
agency Of zephyrS.
Come to me love, in the twilight of evening,
When the shadows have removed the golden
light beaming
From the fountain of light" and the win
doTs Of heaven
Open, to give US glimpse Of the Christian
elysium.
The springtime has gone with its music and
flowers,
And autumn has come with its sombre-hued
bowers;
And thoughts of thy love, with its thricely
rick treasure,
care circling my heart with promise of
pleasure"
Oh! life Of my life, oh, source of my pleasure,
Ennoble my life till it equal thy measure;
The past of my life with its moment of sor-
row,
Is lost in the hope of peace for tomorrow.
Thy voice is as sweet as the song of the syren,
Thy features like those that to angels are
given,--- q.
Thine eyes are as bright as the bright stars Of
even,
Thy soul, grand and pure as the apex of
heaven.
'Tis the spring-sime Of life and we now love
each other,
Through the pathway of life let US travel to-
gether
Till our Journey is ended, and 1--WE pass over
the river
And rest.under the shade" with our blessed
Redeemer.
Come to me, darling, for my spirit is lonely,
Come to me row, for thou, and thou only
Canst remove the SORROWS that often oppress
me,
Come, my love, come, I would fondIy caress
thee.

JOB PRE.TIFNoN'G
BOYS WANTED.

Men are wanted. So they are.
But boys are wanted-honest.
manly, noble boys. Some one has
declared, and truly, that these
boys should possess ten points,
which are thus given: l. Honest.
2. Intelligent. 5. Active. 4. In
dustrlous. 8. Obedient. 6. Steady.
T. Obliging. 8. Polite. 9. Neat.
10. Truthful. One thousand first
rate places are open for one thous-
and boys who come up to the
standard. Each boy can suit bis
taste as to the kind of business be
would prefer. The places are
ready III every kiud cf occupation
Many Of them are already filed
by boys who lack some important
points, but they will soon be va
cant. Some situations will soon be
vacant, because the boys have been
poisoned by reading bad books,
such as they would not dare show
their fathers, and would be asham-
cd to have their mothers see. The
impure thoughts suggested by
these books will lead to vicious
acts, the boys will be ruined, and
their places must be filed. Who
/. will be ready for ono of these va
cancies? Distinguished lawyers,
useful ministers, skillful physi-
clans, successful merchants, must
all soon leave their places for some
one else 20 fill. One by one they
are removed by death. Mind
your ten points, boys; they will
prepare you to step into yacan-
cies in the front rank. Every
man who is worthy to employ o
boy is looking for you if you have
the points. Do not fear that you
will be overlooked. A young per-
son having all these qualities will
shine as plainly as a star st night.

WHAT SHALL We PLANT TINS YEAR 2
Cotton and corn, es usual; but then
how much, and what proportion Teach
Every one will decide tor himself, no
matter how much advice is poffered We
will venture to say this much, however.
We never knew farmer to have too
much corn, or wheat, or oats, or too
many fat hogs and cattle. We never
heard man say he was sorry he raised
his own meat and grain, and we venture
20 predict that the farmer who prepares
in time for severe drouth next summer,
and short crops, ahd who plants but little
cotton and plenty of corn, oats and pota
toes will feel 'leetle' happier next
Christmas than the one who goes it heavy
on cotton, plants but little corn, over
crops and neglects his grain crop for
his cotton. For your family's sake don't
forget the mit.or crops of the "patch" and
garden. Even the chicken crop should
be properly planted.
