From a dialogue reported in [ia Vie Parisienne," it appears tat the necessity of classifying rech novels has at last been icognized. A lady entering a rculating library asks for a novels [don't know how to tell you cactly the kind I want," she ys. "Oh, I think we shall be >le to suit you." "I mean some mng lively," explains the inten ing reader ; "the sort of book lat would not be pirecisely suita e for the library of a young ir." "Marie," cries the keeper r the book shop to her assistant, onvel for a woman af thirty-five." The Seed Time and Planting of Crops. The writer of this communica tion, has presumed to warn plan ters about neglecting the culture of corn and other grains, yes every thing like food and provis ion, for dotnestic use. A wise course ought to dictate that cot ton production should be a secon dary consideration with the far mer, who desires to see the South rise once more to prosperity, and permanent importance. In the history of all political organizations, their rule and sway must -terminate sooner or later, and a reasonable deduction leaves -us to hope, that the oppression and persecution, and mad follies of Radicalism, which means Puri tan control of the country, is to close some day ; recent develop ments, we think, point to the ap pearance of gangrene on the body ] politic. The industrial avocations of twelve millions of people in the Southern States have been over turned, and a large portion of its useful labor been destroyed by frenzied legislation in Congress A change of front has therefore become a necessity, and will have to be adopted, if an element of labor is to supersede that which is dwindling, and must die out. Much has been written and said relative to emigrants being in duced to come to the Cotton States. The climate and appre hension of a want of healthfulness is not the difficulty, for we main tain that experience has shown as great a degree of health and lon gevity to foreigners in the South as is found in the more Northern States ; but all emigrants natural ly enquire what they will find to eat in Georgia, Alabama and South Carolina. If the answer is truthfully given, that the corn. flour, pork and bacon is brought . from the West, many thousand miles off, he must be a bold man who will venture his family to come on the promise-of being fed on cotton. Cotton seed coffee 1 we have drank for a considerable time. During the late war, it 1 was very good, but we eonfess a I preference for Rio or Java. The once fertile and prolific cot ton lands on the seaboard have 1 deteriorated vastly in value, and I have become impoverished by an ill-advised system of culture, ap- E parently without forethought or I judgmert, vain boasters of superi- r or industry to Southerners; and even our planters r'ushed into cot. ton cultivation mostly on bor rowed money, and at any rate of interest charged. Large crops of cotton and a fortune in one or I two years was the speculative stimulant. Corn, peas, potatoes t and such things, to support man and beast, were too insignificant 1 to be worked, when 75 eents to 1 $1 per pound could be realized onC a big erop of cotton; but, alas! adverse causes have left them without cotton, corn, or any thing else, and many have lost their lands ; and, at this time, a state of poverty, if not destitution, exists 4 among whites and blacks truly lamentable, with credit to where. t Many are compelled, this season, to contract with dissolute and t idle freedmen to work two days I weekly, giving as a compensation land to .cultivate and lodgings. 4 Planters elsewhere, take warning! I There is no fiction in the picture 1 presented. Every practical far- I mer in this country is aware of I the power he can hold over man and animals with well filled corn cribs; food tames as well as har monizes, and will command labor invariably, and drive the plough and harrow to advantage. With 1 plenty of corn, potatoes, &c., the cotton you may make will not beC forced on a drooping market, and sold for less than its value. In the New Orleans Evening 1 Picayune, of the 4th ultimo, there is an admirable article under the t caption of "Plant Corn," and i'eit- I erates the advice given by Gen eral Jackson to his soldiers when disbanding the volunteers, after one of his battles, telling them to I go home and "Plant Coi-n." When time permits I will en deavor to shoiw that the South I will have to embark extensively 1 in manufacturing pursuits, and a 1 general diversification of labor. ~ Puritan presumption, and their I teachers, are successfully cultiva- C ting idlers, thieves, and crime in ~ every form, among Africa's race. The retrogression of this species t of labor is self evidet. , . L. M.W.

To the Editors of-the Courier.-As our State is making great strides of progress in the race of prosper ity, it may not be amiss to keep you informed of the various enter prises that are being undertaken throughout the State, and with this view, I propose to give you a brief sketch of the prospects and progress of an enterprise with which you are probably familiar, and which has been lately com menced in this section : It is proposed in a short time, o open books of subscription to the Vaucluse Manufacturing Com pany-the capital to be $500,000, sixty per cent. of which will be paid in when the whole stock is ta ken, and the balance, forty per ent., will be called in, in four in 3talments within twelve months. Df this capital it is proposed to 3pend $400,000 in the erection of a till of 16,000 spindles in fine ocds, or 14,000 spindles in heavy fabrics. There is at Vaucluse a magnifi eent water-power of 48 feet fall, and 300 horse power, the banks >f which are so steep, that a dam >f less than 600 feet and a canal :f 300 feet can secure it. In 1859 there was erected a stone dam, which was half completed, at a 3ost of between $3,000 and $4,000, and which stands now. It can be ,ompleted now, it is said, at a cost >f $20,000, including the cost of lriving wheels. The tract consists of 2,404 acres >f well timbered land, out of which it is confidently asserted, 1,000,000 feet of good lumber can )e had, which from the situation )f the land will not have to be auled more tha a mile from any )oint to thecrek on whichit can e rafted to the saw mill. There -e now on the tract over sixty ruses, containing 200 or more ooms, with a large dwelling and iecessary out-buildings for a Su )erintendent, and besides a num er of eotton warehouses, which ire available for workshops. The Columbiaand Augusta Rail -oad passes directly through the )ace, affording a vent North via corfblk or via Savannah. The ;outh Carolina Railroad is near >y and the Port Royal Road will, 1o doubt, have its branch to Gran teville, tapping the Columbia and ugusta Railroad, which will con ect at Lott's with the road from Tinety-six depot on the Green ille road, affording another out et to the coast. With these great advantages as o water power and locality, and ith the improvements on the' >lace, much confidence is felt in ,he success of the enterprise, in ~ase the capital is raised. There s an abundance of labor, and every ni started in this section will as ist in forming a labor market, ~qual to New England, besides be ng a public institution, giving ~mployment to the poor, and ad ling to the productive capacity of ,he State. The charter has been granted ,he company by the Legislature, he enterprise is in the hands of ~entlemen who are thoroughly ~onversant with the business. A arge amount of the stock has been romised, and in fine there is a -easonable hope that the impor ant enterprise will be pushed for rardrapidly to completion. SATIS. THE RUsH POR OFFIcE.-It is cessary to be an eye-witness to e sound now transpiring in this ~apital to form an adequate con eption of the scramble for office vhich is now going on. "The ldest in habitant" cannot remem er the time when there were so nany people anxious to serve heir country in all sorts of ca >acities. Hlotels, first-class board ng-ouses, second-class boarding iouses and the cheapest boarding iouses are all crowded with as irants, from the patriot who vants the governorship ot a ter itory or the appointment of su ervisor of a district, down to the nore humble individual, who will >e content with an appointment is mssenger in one of the de artments, a door-keeper in the pitol, or an officer on the capi ol police force. The great bulk f these office-seekers come fromi he West. New England has fur ished but few so far, .and the umbers froth the Middle States re even less.

The facts in the following ease came to me by letter from a young lady, who lives in the beautiful City of San Jose. Sheis perfectly unknown to me, and simply signs herself "Aurelia Maria," which may possibly be a fictitious name. But no matter, the poor girl is al most heart-broken by the misfor tunes she has undergone, and so confused by the conflicting coun sels of mis-guided friends and in sidious enemies, that she does not know what course to pursuein or der to extricate herself from the web of difficnlties in which she is almost hopelessly involved. In this dilemma, she turns to me for help, and supplicates for my gui dance and instruction, with a mov ing eloquence that would touch the heart of a statue. Hear her sad story : She says that when she was six teen, she first met and loved, with all the devotion of a passionate nature, a 'young man from New Jersey, named Williamson Breck enridge Caruthers, who was only six years her senior. They were engaged with the free consent of their friends and relatives, and for a time it seemed as if their career was destined to be characterized by an immunity from sorrow be yond the usual lot of humanity. But at last the tide of fortune turned. Young Caruthers became infected with the small-pox of the most virulent type, and when he recovered from his illness, his face was pitted like a waffle mould, and his comeliness gone forever. Aurelia thought to break off the engagement first, but pity for her unfortunate lover, caused her to postpone the marriage for a sea son, and give another trial. The very day before the wed ding was to have taken place, Breckenridge, while absorbed in watching the fiight of a balloon, walked into a well, fractured one of his legs. and it had to be taken off above the knee. Again Aure lia was moved to break the engage ment, but again love triumphed, and she set the day forward and gave him another chance to re form. And again misfortune overtook the unhappy youth. He lost one arm by the premature discharge of a Fourth of July cannon, and within three m-nths got the other pulled out by a carding machine. Aurelia's heart was almost crushed by these latter calamities. She could not but be deeply grieved to see her lover passing from her by piece-meal, feeling as she did, that e could not last forever, under this disastrous procss of reduc tion-yet knowing of no wiay to stop its dreadful career, and in her despair, she almost regretedJ,.(like brokers who hold on and lose), that she had not taken him at first, be fore he had suffered such an alarm ing depreciation. Still, her brav ery bore her up.,and she resolved, to bear with her friend's unnatural disposition yet a little longer. Again the wedding day ap proached, and again disappoint ment overshadowed it ; Caruthers fell ill with erysipelas and lost the use of one of his eyes entirely. The friends and relatives of the bride considering that she had al ready put up with more than could be reasonably expected of her, now came forward and in sisted-that the match should be broken off; but after wavering awhile, Aurelia, with that noble and generous spirit which did her credit, said that she had reflected calmly on the matter, and could not discover that Breckenridge was to blame. *So she extended the time once more, and he broke his other leg. It was a sad day for the poor girl, when she saw the surgeons reverently bear away the saws, whose uses she had learned by previous experience, and her heart told her the bitter truth that some more of her lover had gone. She felt thazt the field of her affections was g. ~jmore and more cir eumsri ery day, but once more.she frowned down her rela tives and renewed her betrothal. Shortly before the time set for the nuptials another disaster oc urred. There was but one man scalped by the Owen River Indi a,ns last year. That man was Williamson Brecken ridge C a r u thers, of New Jersey. He was urrying home with happiness in his heart, when he lost his hair forever, and in that hour of bit terness he alnmost cursed the mis taken mercy that had spared his bea. .t astn Anrelia is in serions pet plexity as to what she ought t do. She still loves her Brecker ridge, she !writes with true w< manly feeling-still loves what i left of him-but her parents ar bitterly opposed to the matcl because he had no property, an is disabled from working, and sb has not sufficient means to sul port both comfortably. "Noi what sball she do ? she asks wit painful and anxious solicitude. It is a delicate question ; it i one which involves the lifelon happiness of a woman, and the of nearly two thirds of a man, an I feel that it would be assumin too great a responsibility to d more than make a mere sugget tion in the case. How would i do to build to him? If Aureli can afford the expense, let he furnish her mutilated lover wit wooden arms and legs, and a gia5 eye and a wig, and give him anc ther show ; give him 90 days witi out grace, and if he does not brea] his neck in the meantime, marr him and take the chances. I does not seem to me that there i much risk, any way, Aurelia, be cause if he sticks to his propcnsit; fo; damaging himself every tim he sees a good opportunity hi next experiment is bound to fir ish him, and then you are a right, you know, married or sir gle. If married, the wooden legs an such other valuables as he ma possess revert to -the widow, an you see you sustain no actual los save the cherished fragment of noble but unfortunate husbanc who honestly strived to do righ1 but whose extraordinary instinct were against him. Try it, Marii I have thought the matter ove carefully and well ; it is the onl: chance I see for you. It woul have been a happy conceit on th part of Caruthers if he had starte with his neck and broken the first ; but since he has seen fit t choose a different policy and'strin himself out as long as possible, do not think we ought to npbrai him for it if he liked it. We d the best we can under the circun stances, and try not to feel exa: perated at him. Put Him Through. Not long since a brace of lover from the interior entered an ul town photograph saloon, an wanted their pictures taken. Th lady gave precedence to her swai who, she said, "had to be tue fist and real natural." He brushed up his hair, gav his necktie a twist or two. aske his girl if~ his collar was 0. K., an placed himself in the operator ebair, where he assumed the phy: iogPnomical characteristics of poor mortal in the dentist's hand: and about to part with one of hi teeth. "Now look purty," begged th lady, casting one of her Ianguish ing faces. The picture was taken. Whel produced, it reminded the girl, a she expressed it, 'just how Jos] looked when he got over the mes sles;" and as this was 'not an er in her lover's history particulari worthy of commemoration sh insisted that "he should se again." He obeyed, and she attended hin to the chair. "Josh," said she, "just lool kinder smilin' and kinder don't. The poor fellow tri.ed to follov the indefinite injunction. "La !" said she, "you look kinde all puckered up.'' One direction followed another but with as little succes~s. A last, growing impatient and des perate, she resolved to try an ex periment, which she considere< infallible, and exclaimed: "I don't keer if there~is folk; round." She enjoined the, operator t< stand ready at the camera. Shi thenm set in her fellow's lap, and throwing her arms around hi: eck, managed to cast a shower o faxen ringlets as a screen betweem the artist and the proceedings which wvhere betrayed by sound: which revealed what was taking aking place. When the billing and cooing had lasted long enougl o produce the desired effect, th< cnning girl leaped from Josh'f ap, clapped her hands, an.d criec o the astonished artist: "Now you've got him-put him trough." A contemporay thinks the rain astrangi ower. It keeps thousands sway front hurch on Sunday, but wont deter- i single man from attending to his businesi n week days.

The et b respondents of all the papers differ etei s about the details of the clothes Grant wore at his inauguration. The corrper pondent of the New York Herald says'he wore corn-colored kid gloves: the ebra respondent of the World says be wire r canary-colored kid gloves; the corns' t pondent of the Times says he wore straw s colored kid gloves, the correspondenttf - the Tribune gives no information on the point-probably because the new coo' etitutional amendment forbids all dis crimination of color. Again, the Woc' - says that at his inauguration Grant bad - on a "shirt pierced by three spiral small l nobbed gold studs;" but the Heri S - that "not a single orrament of jewelry appeared about his persto, not eveugeld 3 shirt buttons, ind "upon his shirt bosq nothing glittered brighter than buttons."
