NORRIS. ^BaofLeld Heard Again,” From We notice an article in the Abbeville of the 11th inst., from their Troy correspondent, replying to au ar- ti-le which appeared in the Advance of the 23rd nit., in reference to the Chicago Cumherling Gap R. K. The Editor of the Advance would certainly he delighted to be able to reach Abbe* ville by rail without having to go al] around the county to do so. But must confess that he has 1 ong since learned that it takes “money” not “gas” to V ild railroads, and as McCormick has an abundant supply of the former, she certainly has the longest pole, and will be able tc bear up under the load, which we fear our sister town will sink into utter! insignificance long before they r ealixe that pleasure. “Money” gentlemen, not “gas.” Bcrdoux Dots.

God will j help the poor man for he is homeless i Some men marry for beauty, and truly it rs one of the greatest attraction “Ajax may rout a Hlialanx, but beauty shall slay him single handed.” “Peri cles ruled Athens, yei is he not the servent of Aspassia” but after a time b*autv will become of little eonse- qaence- We like to see a handsome and beautiful features. Because there are the external manifestations of health. We may see the most beauti ful landscape daily and it will soon be comes monotonous, so it is a grert measure with a beutiful face, unless that most valuable ot gems sparkle from the etiolated recesses of the jeweled cssket, a good nature. Mar al and religious training is in a fenr- fut state of neglect, and boys are al lowed the privelege of going from place on Sundays instead of going to church or Sundov School, they are al lowed to associate with those who are calculated to taiut their innocent minds. Example is a constant monitor, and good seed may die among the tares; cunningness of the wicked associate may spoil a gentle disposition. Parents should teach their children the funda, mental principles of character, it is made up of small duties. The land mark tree that has been buffeted by the high minds of heasen for centuries, seemingly to defy the rarnges of time, was once a seed, even the dust in the bnlence makes adiffeaence. The shoal that may wreek a navy is but the work of a colony of insects. It was the cack ling of a flock of geese rared Rome. It was a shriek from a soldier caused by a shrill that worried the >cotch of the opproaching Danes; so we should be mindful ot small things. In all the transactions of life, there is no act however, small or trivial, but has its train of consequencies. There is no hair so small but what it casts its shad ow. All nature is putting on the robe of winter. The fleecy staple has all been gath ered’ and the farmers are resting their oars* l>r. Sanders still has a fleurishing Sunday School at Liberey, notwith standing the cold weather. Mr. D. A. Wordlaw and his sister Jane, au accomplished young lady, has been spending some time with friend# and relatives. Miss Crean and L. B. Ramey have gone to Abbeville for a few days. The sweet odor of OranSe blossoms are now perceptable alfictory nose. *,. We are now stopping with the hospita ble Dr* Johu Sanders, eniertained by Misses Minnie Lee and Seppie.

The colored population seem to be in a continual move, notwitstaning the snow and rain. The humid wintry winds rnurmer through the tree-tops, bereft of t.lieir Summer foliage. Instead of the Indi an Summer, of six weeks ago, with the tapering sunbeams tipped with yellow a nd gold, 'ftife limpid rippliug streams ringing merrily on their way, quench ing the thirst of those who chance to pass by, are converted into turbid vol- omnous atrsams. Yet we have reason to rejoice, surrounded as we are, by everything that goes to make up hu man happiness, abundant crops and good health. .We are an uug'ratefu people, one extreme reminds us of thel rnpposite, wh ■ we have cold we wish .:■> warm, when we have rain we wisbj for dry weather. There are a great many peddle who are said of that feel ing which is cencomptant to that which enables on.» to see the glory in fhe grass and tho sun shine on th c flowers. Sometimes we are surronn- ' dod by cheerful people, who do not know upon what their cheerfulness is founded on hope and patience, con stitute the trne basis. A kind word ooats no more than an unkind one. Kind words always produce actions,no only on th* part of him to whom they are spokon; but on the part or him by whom they are employed, and this is not casually only; but customary in efficacy of the principles of association. There Is ceitain ebaps who delight in trying to make those by whom they are surrounded, as uncomfortable and unpleasant as possible, by using inop- portnne and scathing remai*ks calcula- e 1 to mortify the feelings so as neve to feel at ease in their company again. They use derogatory and derises lan guage to tickle tho fancy of treir impo lite associates. In this utilitarian age of the woild, the great ruling power is is centered in indinpirality and its croaking wlieelr ave lubricated by the oil of euvy and strife. Men’s lives sre just what they make them, and every day the hinge’ of destiny is carvingup- «n the tablet of the heart. This great truth that the hand that works the era. die, rules the world. When ever we see a woman that every one loves and and admires, one who meets every one with a pleasant good morn ing. and whose ambition is to make home and those arround her happy. We know that everything she says c.r trials to the lips via the heart. We lmv* heard it Baid that girls were very goed at making nets but it would be n great deal better still if they would learn to make cages. Men are easi ly caught as birds, but sometimes it it very diffrents to keep them. If a woman cant make her home bright an 1 cheerful, so that it will be tne sweetest ami most pieasaet place, hat her huafcoud can find refuge, a ty, but very sedate. vs. dwillfu Hem.v atm Dm ffsrtigftter* Mrs. Tinsley, is spending Christmas with Mr. and Mrs. S.
