Human Happiness Clothed in its .Host Roseate linos, ami E'eriimied with Heavenly Incense?The Xecessary Adjuncts of Turnips in the fi'ot, anil I'eas U;>on a Trencher, is Overlooked. The greatest pleasure that a noble, and generous soul can enjoy on tills earth, is the conciousness of having done some real good deed, to alleviate the sorrows, or pains, oi some less lortunate fellow being than himself. Such ji inan realizes that it is better to give than re ceive, and for every such nouie act no naiurally feels happier, and more closely drawn tc his Creator, which inspires his decision tc push forward in the work of doing "untc others, as you would have tliem do to you.'' Such a man, belie priuce or peasant, enjoys to a degree some of the foretastes of the blessings beyond the River. Yes, he would rathei make some one happy, rather have the love ot some body; if it were necessary, he would gladly spend his life in an humble cabin home, built by his own hands in a remote forest, and there dwell with a noble loving wile and children. Yes, a true companion by his side to cheer and comfort, while the little ones prattle around his knee, he had far rath er dwell there in the bosom ol his family with the shaded path that leads to the coo! and gurgling sprini, with its vineclad hills around, and the little fishes playing in the stream below that flows like a poem from the heart of the earth ; while the honey-suck>c and holly-hawk bloom around the cabin wall, . and the sweet music of the birds as they siuy around tlie door, with tlie lattice work across the window, letting the sunlight fall in checkered rays on mama, and the sweet babies, a*they nestle within the vineclad bower; he had rather dwell therewith his sou I civet and free, than live in a palace of gold, and wear the crown of imperial power, while his heart and conscience were covered with hypoericy. It is not necessary that to be rich or great, that one muy do noble, generous deeds and be happy; such a man will not simply con tine his acts ol charity and kindness to his own little family, but with their assistance will take pleasure in seeking to relieve suffering humanity; he naturally believes in the democracy of the lire nml will treat his wife a- a snlendul (low cr, who will till liis heart, with the sweetest perfume and joj*, and thus united on perfe-t terras of equality, will d.veil together in unison, each trusting and confiding implicitly in the other, will glide o'er the rugged paths ol This life with elastic steps and buoyant hearts. The man with such a soul, Unit has gained the love and confidence of one pare and gentle woman, has attained the highest human happiness, and his life has been a success, no matter if he dies in abject poverty; but if he gained the brightest laurels of the world and never knew tiie depth and ties of love and affection, especially of a noble wife, his life has been a failure. \Y. ?S.

The Temperance Men Cannot be Suppressed by the Whiskey 31 en. Anderson Intelligcncer. We think it will be extremely unfortunate for the Legislature to refuse lo permit the ?<v?nlr?f?f tills eonntv to na-s unon the ones tiou of prohibition, for such refusal will certainly carry the question into our primary election for members of the Legislature, thus dividing our peopleand producing much discord and complication. It will be extremely unfortunate for this course to result from a refusal to permit the will of the majority to rule, when by ordering an election iii April or May we can leave the question entirely free from political complication to be decided as the people wish. The responsibility for any trouble in this regard will rest upon those who refuse to submit the matter to the will ot the people. Goods Thut Must so.
