To those lettering in the Stubblc field Of witness the troupcs Of merry Juveniles that are constantly gliding by us, in our strollS about the town. Who wishes well for this good State of ours, has much to congratulate himself as he gazes upon their JOYOUS faces. Those careless little ones are the cOnservators Of its future propricty and greatness They are to the "manor born" They are rooted to this soil as securely as our Indigenous forest growth. They have no diStractnS yearningS for other lands. Here originates, and will linger and cluster, their entire heart aSsocia- tons. Not SO with the cmigrant to this fair State. Spite Of all effort, he must turn fond glance TO his olden home. In the far.oh dis lance are the graves of his forefathers, and the playground Of his childhood. Perhaps an aged and dccIepit mother beckons him to her arms. She would sec her boy again. ere the skeleton reaper hurries her away from earthly ties. In that distant land, n contincn. sweeping between, are the old homestead with its memorcd surroundings, and fond brothers and dOting sisters. No wonder at nil he is restless and dissatisfied in his new home Not so with those dear little ones who send forth their merry shouts about us. They know no other skies but the bright ones of California. Their innocent rcvcls are conse o..t;no % f,1uro and ;noroea lila ,no,uorine IN rich soil over which they ramblc. Each act and thought and gleeful ASSOCIATION Of theirs is engcndcring holy patriotism for the Pacific coast Those darling little fellows, with attire somewhat torn, and faces begrimcd with noun tain dirt, will in brief time mature to man. hood. They are catching up intelligence Of most sterling cast such Ms can only be ac- 1uired from the freedom Of age with youth, so peculiar to our State. An invigorating at mosphrrr is rndowinc them with burlv frnmes An early sclfreliance will Stoutcn their Young hearts. Well adapted will they be for the development Of the rich resources Of this IA. vorcd St

l was chatting with a lady who is engaged in one of the public offices of this city. She is a well-educated woman and a devoted Christian. She speaks French and German as accurately as English, and her native tongue is rendered fastidiously. Some years ago she was left a widow in Chicago with two young children. She had no idea of how to make q living. She taught foreign languages and music evenings, and took in washing during the day. She taught night school and day school, and passed six months as a cook in a hotel. The delicacy of her children prevented her from keeping any position long. "Once,n she said, s'they were both very sick at the same time. had not money to buy medicine and my clothes, trinkets and books had all been pawned or sold. 81 just remembered that two of my teeth were stuffed with gold. The gold was promptly removed and a jeweller gave me three dollars for it. My children got well, they are grown up now, and well educated, and / ann happy."-Chicago Journal.

the California question exist had the admins. tration OF 1916 maintained the policy Of 1892 Yet the former was southern policy and the latter wal the northern one. Examine il carefully, and you will find, or am much in error that the northern policy is tho that has at all times been needed for strengthening the South. The true interests of the South require that il should inuite population, instead of erpslIing it With every such expulsion 1t becomes weaker The North ressts, when if sought to weaken the South II would aid in expelng population from the Older southern States. The South desires votes in the Senate that it may protect slavery, and aid in main tanning system of commercial policy that weak ems itself while aiding the growth of Abolitionism and Free solsm. The North refuses the South more votes because it feels that II suffers under southern policy, which is weakening southern institutions by stimulating the growth of Abolition and Free Soil, both of them foes to the peace and harmony which the North would desire to maintain. In ti, question Of commercial policy lies the tohole difficulty The North cannot be stimulated to desire for SUI premacy except by measures tending to the ruin Of its best interests. That stimulus is furnished by the South. The North sees its mills and furnaces closed, and its mines abandoned and its people flying by hun dreds of thousands, while the time of Congress is exclusively occupied by the fugitive slaue bill, and other kindred measures that there is chance for considering the of fugitive freemsn. Its people being ruined, and its expensive works passing by into the hands of the sheriff.

The South Carolina Revolutionary Convention, now in session at Charles ton passed, on the 10th inst, at a quarter past one o'clock, the ordinance of secession, by unanimous vote. The ordinance is as follows: We, the people of the State of South Carolina in convention assembled, do declare and ordain that the ordinance adopted by us, in the convention of the 23d of May, 1878, whereby the Consti- tuition of the United States was ratified, and all acts and parts of acts of the General Assembly of the States ratify- ing amendments to said Constitution, are hereby repealed, and the union now subsisting between South Carolina and other States, under the name of the United States of America is hereby dissolved. The question now arises, is South Carolina by this act, out of the Union !? II is true that she has endeavored to throw off all allegiance to the Federal Government, but will it not require the consent of the latter to release her? We believe that she is still as much a member of the Union as she ever was. The mere act of resolving that she will not be represented in Congress or ask the protection or support of the Gen eral Government, is not, in fact, the establishment of an independent Gov eminent. 1t will require something more than this, we imagine, before South Carolina finds herself out of the Union. When she shall successfully resist the collection of revenue, take and keep possession of the United States forts, and other property within her borders, and establish and be able to maintain a government of her own, in every respect distinct from and indie pendent of the Government of the Union, then she will be out of it. Of course, if the people of South Carolina choose to get along without our postal service, it will make no es- sential difference to the Federal Gov eminent, beyond the saving of several thousand dollars; and so of the Courts. But when they attempt to interfere with the collection of the revenue, by the Federal Government, then will they have t
