" Hope." No vor despair ; the darkest cloud That ever loomed will pass away, The longest night will yield-to dawn, And dawn will kindle into div. What if around thy lonely hark, Break fierce and high the waves of sorrow Stretch every oar ! there's land ahead, And thou wilt gain tho port to-morrow. Itt * When fortune frowns and summer friands, Like birds that fear a storm, depart, Some, If the breast have tropic warmth, Will stay and nestle around thy heart. If thou art poor, no Joy is wo?. No good is gained by sad rep! ni ag; Gems buried in the darkened earth May yet be gathered for the mining. There is no lot, however sad, - There is no roof, however low, But has tome joy to m alcott glad. Some latent bliss to soothe ito woe. The light of hope will linger near, When wildest beats tho heart's emotion A talisman, when breakers mar, A star upon the troubled ocean. The farmer knows not if his fields, With flood or droaght, or blight must cope; He questions not the fickle skies. But plows, and sows and toils in hope. Then up and strive, and dare and do. Nor doubt a harvest thou wilt gather : 'Tis time to labor and to wait. And trust in God for genial weather. THE Boy WHO WANTED TO KNOW. -The following is strictly true : A lady coming to. this State recently, stopped at one of the Chicago hotel? with her little son. The t oy was not perfectly satisfied with matters and things at the dinner table, and ex {)ressed himself frequently to that ef ect. The mother finally rase and remarked, in an undertone, to the youthful offender, " Come with me .up stairs, and I will attend to your case." The lad understood .it once what " "attending to his case" meant, but there was an important matter of detail which he was painfully anxious to have more fully explained; 6o, pulling backwards on Ihe hand of his mother, he blubbered out, in a voice loud euongh to be heard over most ol the well-filled dining-room : " Suv. mother, are you going to take your hand or your slipper? The enthu siasm with which this brief address was received was unbounded. Poor little fellow, how often have we want ed to know that same thing ourself ? "With a brief season of waitiug we {generally found out, as he undoubted y did. How HE DID IT.-We saw him coming, and we knew at once what the matter was. Already we saw in imagination a" full face" head : " An other Circular Saw Accident." We asked him if he would be good enough to give us the facts concerning the injuries to his face, ard he replied that he would be (something unpleas ant) if he djd. We told him that while we did not doubt the correct ness of his conclusions, we thought his premises were wrong, and did not think that compliance with our re quest would affect the result much, one way or the other. We further informed him that unless he was more communicative we should hunt up the proprietor of that circular ?aw and get the facts from him, and make the affair a text for half a column on temperance. " Thunder !"' said the young man, " no circulai* saw did that 1 It was kissing a maiden with one of those Elizabethan ruffs on !" PRATT'S ASTRAL OIL. Absolutely safe. Perfectly odorless. Always uniform, niuminatingqualities superior tn gas. Burns in any lamp without danger of exploding or taking fire. Manufactured expressly to displace the use of volatile and dangerous oils. Its safety under every possible test, and ita perfect burning qualities, are proved by its eon tin ed use in over 800,000 fami lies. Millions of gallons havo been sold and no sodden t-directly ordirectly-has ever occurred from burning, storing or hand ling it. The immense yearly loss to life and property, resulting from the use of cheap ana dangerous oils in the United States, is appalling. The Insurance Companies and Fire Commissioners throughout the country recommend the ASTRAL as the best safeguard when lamps are used. Send for circular.

And for that purpose, have put up a Steam Engine and Cotton Press, with commodious Buildings, atEdgefield Vil lage, and are now ready to receive Cot ton, and hope by honest, fair dealing, to merit a liberal patronage.

We have put up two of Carver's Im - proved Gin?,-famous fur picking clean, and fine nam pie. It is a settled fact, that eotton ginned by steam or water power, will tum out 15 pounds more lint to a five hundred pound bale, than that gin ned by horse power; and we hope soon, to convince the planters of this vicinity, that it is cheaper to havo us Gin their Cotton than to Gin it at home. We have not yet put our Huller and Grain Mill in operation, but expect to do so as soon as the Ginning season is over, of which event the public will be ad vised through the Advertiser. F. L.
