All fellers as wants to get married, I s'poso. But na hasn't said so to their gal, Fed like a darned fool when they goes to propose, So I'll tell you just how I axed Sal. I hadn't thought znctly what question to "pop," Aud I doesn't know yet what's the right, For my head it whirled round nnd round like " a top, But I coined the first time to the p'int. I felt, at the time, so brim full of joy, That her hands I took hold by the tips ; Thought I to myself, where's a luckier boy f And I gave her a kiss on the lips. Says I, "You and me, for two yenrs and a half, Have been goin together about." "I know what you're at," said she, with a laugh, Whilo I felt moat acucedly out * ' The parson lives near, so to him let us go; m love yer and allers be true; The old folks, I'm anr$ wouldn't dare to say no. Says she, "I don't care if they do." She die.n't say "Yea," but the laugh in her eye Told mo all that I wanted to know, So I axed if we'd better wait till bimohvJ But 8ays she, "I'm all ready now." I thought to mysel( I must bo better dressed, For Sal looked so purty and neat, [vest, So I ran home and stole dad's white coat and And then I commenced my retreat. The coat woe too Ion? but it Jit very well, And dad never locked better in it But what do you think, when I got back to Sal, She had stolen the old woman's bonnet 1 The parson was just about taking his tea, When we openod the door and went in ; But the way that he looked at Sally and me, Made us wish ourselves out of doors ag'in. Said ho, "I should like to know why you've come, ^ To disturb me while taking my tea!" Why, parson, says1^ "wo'to just come from - - hum- '% Why, don't yoti know Sally and me! "We come here to be married, Sally and mo, And we're both infi !?urry to go, 'Cause we come away slyly, just arter ten, For we don't want the old folks to know."

A fashionable Dinner Party. A writer in the last number of the Westminster Iicviov, in a well-written article on "Manners and Fashions," thus hits oft' a fashionable stupid Dinner Party : "CK> now and dress for some half-past oirrlif <l!nnn?* /\?? ?1- ?-i ' ?

Theso figures, got up with 1 sucn precision and finish, appear but half alive. They liavo frozen each other by their primness ; and your faculties feel tho ' numbing effect of tho atmosphere the moment you enter it. AM these thoughts, so nimble and so apt awhile since, have disappeared?have suddenly acquired a supernatural power of eluding yours; if you venture a remark to your neighbor, there comes a trito rejoinder, and there it ends. No subject you can hit upon outlives half-a. dozen sentences. Nothing that is said excites any real interest in you, and you feel what you say is listened to with aDathy. By some strange magic, things tha- O'v . gi ve pleasure seem to have lost ah ? U:i- ! You have a taste for art. Weary ->f 1 lous talk, you turn to tho table, and find | tbat tli? book of engravings and the portfolio of photographs are as flat as the conversation. You fond of music. Yet tho singing, goo^ . it is, you hear with utter indifference, and say "thank you," with a senso of being a profound hypocrite.? Wholly at ease thougbtarou could bo, for your own part, you fitMIYlbat your sympathies will not let you. You see young gentlemen feeling whether their tics are properly adjusted, looking vacantly round, and considering what they shall do next. You see ladies sitting disconsolately, waiting for some one to speak to them, and wishing they had the wherewith to occupy their fingers. You see the hostess standing about the door-way, keeping a factitious smile on her face, and racking her brain to find tho requisite nothings with which to greet her guests as they en> ter. You see numberless traits of weariness and embarrassment; and if }*ou have any fellow feeling, these cannot fail to produce a Bense of discomfort. Tho disorder is catching ; it spreads from one to antther ; do what you will, you cannot resist the general infection. You struggle against it; you make spasmodic efforts to be lively ; but none of your sallies or your good stories do more than raise a simper or a forced lang'\. Everything falls dead. Intellect and feeling arc alike asphyxiated, and when at length, yielding to your disgust, you rush afrry, how great is the relief when you get into the fresli air, and see the stars ? liow you "thank God that's over 1" and half resolve to avoid such boredom for the future! "What, now, is the secret of this perpetual , miscarriage and disappointment? Docs not the fault lie with all these needless adjuncts, these elaborate dressings, these set t forms, these expensive preparations, these many devices and arrangements, that imply trouble and raise expectation ?" The Man who Kiased the Three Girls. A young man who boarded at a house in the country, where several coy damsels who seemed to regard men as terrible creatures whom it was an unpardonable sin to look at, was one afternoon accostcd by an acquaintance, and asked what he thought of the young ladies with whom he boarded ? He replied that they were very shy and reserved. "So they are," returned the other, "and so much so that no gentleman could get near enough to tell the color of their eyes." "That they may be," said the boarder, "yet I will stake a million that I can kiss , all three without any trouble." "That you cannot do," cried his friend ; "it is an achievement which neither you nor any other man can accomplish." The other was positive, and invited his friend to his house to witness his triumph. > They entered the room together, and the three girls were all at home, sitting beside their mother, and they looked prim and , demure as John Rogers at the stake. ' Our hero assumed a very grave aspect, oven to dejection, and having looked wist' fully at the clock, breathed a sigh as deep as Algebra, and as long as a female dialogue at a street door. Ilis singular deportment now attracted the attention of the girls, who cast their slow opening eyes up to his countenance. Perceiving the inv ' pression he had made, he turned to his companion and said: "It wants throe minutes of the time P* "Do you appak of the dinner?" said the > old lady, laying down her sewing work. ; "Dinner V said he, with bewildered as t>ecL and^vjintinnf. if iin<v\na/?i/Miel?r * - i - o> VUU,J) "" ** > curled fore-finger. 1 A silence ensued, during which the fe male part of the household glared at the , young man with irrepressible curiosity. ?, - "You will see me decently interred," said he, again turning to his friend. > Ilia friend was as much puzzled as any i body present, and his cmbarrassment^addea to the intended effect: but the old lately be> ingf finable to contain herself, cried: i "Mr. C? pray what do you speak of I" j .

" "Who would have believed that an apparition would tell such a lio ? It was probably the ghost of Annanias or Sapphira." It was somo time before, the sober maidens understood the joke, and when thev did, they evinced no resentmont. The first kiss broke the ice, and thanks to the ghost they discovered there was some pleasure in a bearded check. A Grasshopper Roast. , Amongst tho choice delicacies with which the Digger Indians regale them- J selves during the summer season, says the , Empire County Argus, is the grasshopper ] roast. Having been an eye witness to the < preparation and discussion of one of their I .feasts of grasshoppers, we can describe it ' truthfully. There arc districts in Califor- , nih, as well as portions of the plains be- . tween the Sierra Nevada and the llocky i Mountains, that literally swarm with grasshoppers, and in such astonishing numbers that a man cannot place his foot to the j ground while walking thcro without crushing gscat numbers. To tho Indian ihey arc a great delicacy, and arc caught and cooked in the following manner : A piecc of ground is so-"lit wliere they most abound, in the cei " which an cxcavation i:: made, large mid enough to prevent tl.e insect from Lop, ig out when once in. The entire party of diggers, old and young, male and female, then surround as much of the surrounding grounds as they can, and with each a green bough in hand, whipping and thrashing on every side, gradually approach the ccntre driving the insects before them in countlcss :,udes, till a* last all, or nearly all, are 1 in 'he ! pit. In the meantime sin;1 arc made, answering the pu.t o.in which fires are kindled and kept up .m?til the surrounding earth, for a short distance, becomes sufficiently heated, together with a fiat stone large enough to cover the oven. The grasshoppers are now taken in coarse bags, and, after being thoroughly soaked in water for a few moments, aro emptied into the oven and closed in. Ten or fifteen minutes suffices to roast them, when they are taken out aud eaten without further preparation, with much apparent relish, or as is sometimes the case, reduced to powder and made into soup. And having from curiosity tasted, not of the soup, but of the roast, really if one could divest himself of the idea of eating an insect, as wc do an oyster or shrimp, with other preparation than simply roasting, they would not be considered very bad eating, even by more refined epicures than the Digger Indians. The Celestial State. Old Rickets was a mau of labor, and had little or no time to'devote to speculations on the future. IIo was withal rather saving in the use of language. One day, while engaged in stopping up hog-holes about his place, he was approached by a colporteur and presented with a tract. "What is all this about?" demanded "That, sir, is a book describing the celestial State," was the reply. "Celestial state ?" said Rickets, "where is that ?" "My worthy friend, I fear that you have not?" "Well, never mind," interrupted Rickets, "I don't want to hear about any better State than old Pennsylvania. I intend to live right here, if I can only keep them troublesome hogs out." An Ingenious Riddle.?It was done when it was begun ; it was dope when it was half done; and yet it wasn't done when it was finished. Now what was it ? Answer: Abney Johnson courts Susannah Dunn. It was Dunn when it was begun ; it was Dunn when it was half-done ; and yet it wasn't Dunn when it was finished ?for it was Johnson. CHARLESTON ADVERTISEMENTS7 CHARLESTON CARPET WAREHOUSE.

A third class differing from the others and r>erhans more numerous, without :onsideing for a moment any merit they might be entitled to, tried them, merely as a venture, jjrowing out of a desire for something now.

In twenty minute* he was free from pain; 1 In twenty-four hours lie could stana alone; * In four day* he could walk alone. ' By the use of the Resolvent, Relief and Regu- 1 lators, iu ono month he was entirely cured. ' A lady aged 85, had been crippled for years, could not raise her hand to her head. One bottle of 11. R.
