POET I P AL: Sunlight 111 thc Valley. 1'h ero la a ut Alight in tho valley Whoro tho lillies Ho asloop ; And tho babbling brook is laughing Whllo tho willows o'er lt woop. Tho birds sing on tho branches All through tho Hvodong day ; And tho buttorfitos uro dancing 'l'hoir happy lives away. Tho Wild bco sips tho nectar From tho sweet brier's blooming oup; Whllo tho tiny, modest violet To heaven is looking up ; All ou its faoe reflected Lios tho nz uro of tho sky, As aro mirrored in tho waters, Tho cloudlets passing by. Yo?I there's sunlight in tho valley Whore Ibo lillies Ho aslcop : But I cannot seo its beauty, For my ey os oro closed to weep. But my heart is looking heavenward, As looks the violet bluo, While on it is reflected Tho impress of tho truo. Fain would I with tho lillies Lay mo down and sweetly sleep ; To waken on tho morrow In tlv?t land whoro uono need wcop, lu that land of glorious beauty, Where tho sunlight never fades, And the wing of tho doath-.mgol No heart shrinu ever fades. ?1 JJ... '" ?!-!?'"'? I ; . . JL *1 The Three Clierry-Sfones. Whon I was a schoolboy, moro than thirty years ago, I remember to have read a story ?which may have been a fiction, bul which was rory naturally told, and made a deep impres sion upon mc thou. I will endeavor to draw it forth from tho locket of my memory, and relate it ns nearly as I can recollect. Three young gcutlcmcn, who had finished tho most substantial part of their repasts were lingering over their fruit and wino, nt a tav ern, iu Loudon, when a man of middle agc and middle stature entered tho public room, where they were silting, scated himself nt one end ol'ti small unoccupied table, nod calling thc waiter, ordered n simple mutton chop and n glass ol ale. His appearance, at first view, was nol likely to arrest thc attention of any ono. Ili? hair was beginning to bo thin and groy j tin expression of bis countenance was sedate wich a slight touch perhaps of melancholy and he wore a grey surtout, with a standing collar, which manifestly had scon service, i tho wearer bad not-just such a thing ns ni officer would bestow upon bis serving mun. Ho might bo taken, plausibly enough, for t country magistrate, or au attorney of liiuitei practice, or a schoolmaster. Ho continued to mcsticatc bis chop and si; his ale in siloncc, without lifting bis eyes fron the table, until n cherry-stone, sportively soar ped from tho thumb and finger of ono of tb gontlomon at tho opposite toblo, struck hil on tho right car. His eyes was instantly ut On the aggressor, and bis ready intolligenc gathered from the ill-suppressed merrimcii of tho party that this petty impertinence wa intentional. Thc stranger stopped, and picked up tb ohcrry-stonc, and a scarcely perceptible smil passed over bis features, ns he carefully wraj ped it up iu a piece of paper, and placed it i his pookct. This singular procedure, wit thoL' preconceived impressions of their on tomer, somewhat elevated as tho young gen th men were by tho wino they had partaken o capsized their gravity entirely, and a burst < irresistible laughter proceeded from thc grou Unmoved by this rudeness, tho strange continued to finish bis frugal repast in quic until another cherry stone, from tho san hand, struck bim upon thc right elbow. This also, to tho infinito amusement of tl) other party, bc picked from tho floor, an oarofully deposited with tho first. Amidst shouts of laughter, a third cheri) stone was soon after discharged, which bi him upon tho left breast. This also bo vor deliberately took from thc floor, and deposite with thc other two. As ho roso, and was engaged in pay?Dg fo his ropast, the gaiety of these sporting gentle mon becamo slightly subdued. It was no easy to account for this, Lnvater would no hove been able to detect tho slightost cvidenc or irritation or resentment upon the feature of tho stranger. Ile seemed a little tallct to be sure, ;md the carriage of bis bead migli havo appeared to them rather more erect. Ho walkod to tho table at which they wer sitting, and, with that air of dignified calm noss, whioh is a thousand times moro tcrribl than wrath, drew a oard from his pocket, an presentod it with perfect civility to the offer dor, who could do no less than offer bis ow in return. While the stranger unclosed bi surtout, to take tho card from his pocket, the had a glance nt tho undress cr>ui cf a militar man. Tho oard disclosed bis rank, and brief inquiry at tho bar was sufficint for tb rest. Ho was a captain, whom ill-health an tyhg servies had ?n lilied io half-pay. I earlier lifo ho bad been engaged in several a fairs of honor, and, in tho dialect of tho fat oy, was a d^nd shot. The next morning a noto arrivod at tl aggressor's residence, containing a challcng ?h foTtn, and ono of tho cherry-stones. Tl truth then flashod boforo tho challenged pa ty-it Was tho ohalleugor's intention to mal three bites at this ohorry--three- sepcrate n fairs out of this unwarrantable frolio I Tl ohftHengo was accepted, and the ohallong< ; fsrty, in deference, to tho challenger's rep ted skill with tho pistol, had half dcoidt Uith tho small swords \ but his friends, wi waroon tho olort, t?oon discovered that t' captain, who bod risen hy his merit, bad, tho earlier days of his necessity, gained 1 broad es an accomplished instructor in t ugo of that weapon, Thoy mot, and fired alternately, by lot--tho young man had selected this modo, thinking ho might win tho first firo-ho did-fired, and missed his opponent. Tho ooptnin lev elled his pistol oud fired-tho ball passed through thc Hap of tho right car, aud grazed the bouo; and, as tho wounded man involun tarily put his hand to the plaoo, ho remember ed that it was on thc right car of his antagonist that tho cherry stone had fallen. Hero end ed tho first lesson. A month had passed. His friends cherished tho hope that ho would hear nothiug moro from tho captain, when another note-a challenge, of course-and another of thoso accursed cherry stones arriv ed, with tho captain's apology, on tho Ecoro of ill-health, for not sending it before. Again they met-fired simultaneously, and thc captain, who was unhurt, shattered tho right elbow ofh?a antagonist-tho very point upon which ho had been struck by thc cherry stone; and hero ended thc second lesson. There was something awfully inprcssivo in tho modus operandi and exquisito skill of his antagonist. Tho third chcrry-stono i was still in his possession, and tho aggressor had not forgotten that it had struck thc offend ing gentleman upon tho left breast. A month hud passed-another-another-and another of terrible suspenso ; but nothing was heart from tho captain. Intelligence had boer received that he was confined to his lodging; by illness. At length thc gentleman who had been hi.' second in thc former duels once moro presen ted himself, and tendered another note, which as tho recipient perceived on taking it contained tho last of tho cherry stones. Thc note was superscribed in thc captain': well known hand, but it was thc writing, cv idently, of one who wrote feebly. There wa an unusual solemnity, also, in thc manner o him who delivered it. Tho seal was broken and there was thc last cherry stone in a blan! envelope. ''And what, sir, om I to understand b this?" inquired thc aggressor. "You will understand, sir, that my fricn forgives you-he is dead." THE TRANSMISSION OF SOUND.-Thc fo lowing curious observations in regard lo til transmission of sound have been careful! verified by an extended scries of experiment* Thc whistle of a locomotive is heard iJ,CC yards through thc air ; thc noiso of a railroi train, 2,800 ;.tho report of a musket and tl bark of a dog, 1,800 ; an orchestra or Hie rc of a druin, 1,000 ; the human voice reach to a distance of 1,000 yards ; tho croaking frogs, 900; thc chirping of crickets, 800. Distinct speaking is heard in thc air from I low up to a distance of 200 yards; from abo it is only understood to a range of 100 yar downward. It has been nsccrtaiuc.d, that i echo is well-rcllcctcd from thc surfaco smooth waler only when thc voice comes fi t nu clcvnlion. Other similar phenomenn cc ncctcd with the transmission of sounds ha been observed, but thc results disagree, citl from inaccuracy in thc observation, or fri tho varying nature of thc circumstances alf ting thc numbers obtained. Such varinlic occur to an extent of ten to twenty per cei: and even to more. Thc weather being ci nod dry, or wann and wet, arc thc chief inf cueing causes. In thc first case thc sou goes to a far greater, and in tho second t lesser distance.- Technologist. OCCUPATION. - Occupation ! What a g rious thing it is for tho human heart ! Th who work hard seldom yield themselves to fancied or real sorrow. When grief ; down, folds its hands, and mournfully fei upon its own tears, weaving thc dim shade that a little exertion might .sweep away int funeral pall, thc strong spirit is shorn of might, and sorrow becomes our master. WI trouble flow upon you, dark and heavy, t not with thc waves-wrestle not with thc t J rout-rathol seek occupation to divert wat that threaten to overwhelm you in a thous;] channels, which thc duties of life always p scut. Before you dream of it, those wat will fertilizo the present, nnd give birth fresh Howers, that they may brighten thc turo-Howers that will bcoomo pure and h in thc sunshine which penetrates thc patti duty. Grief, after nil, is but a selfish fccli and most selfish is bc who yields himself thc indulgence of any passion that brings joy to his fellow tuen. THE LAND OF DIAMONDS.-Great exe: mout prevails in South Africa, on account the discovery of rich diamond fields, abi 650 miles northeast from Capo Town. 'J diamond fields aro 5,000 feet abovo tho lc of thc sea. Tho country wbcro thediaino have been found consist of fiats and undu ing grounds. Tho rivers hayo not yet b prospected. The natives Iiavo hitherto foi most of tho diamonds, and on tho surfaco oi They never dig for them. A dozen j hands and walk abronst across thc plains When they find a shining pebble they piol up, and if not a diamond throw it over tl shoulder and go on. Washing for them is tho I .st process, tho great soarcity of water forbids its use Hence some resort to tho sifting proocss. J diamond fields cover over 1,000 square mi and oxtond from longitudo 'JA to 28 cast, from latitude 27 to 30 south. Jf??" A few days sinoo a llttlo ragged ohin was sont by n tradesman to collo bill. Ile bogan in tho usual way, but oomiug moro and moro importunate, at lon? tho gontlomon's pationco being ozhaustod said to Min : "You need not dun mo so sh ly; I am net going to run away." "Id s'upnoso you sro," said tho boy, soratol his hood, "but my master is and ho want! money." i ? (J in imus Facts. Tho poet Martial addressed some of his epigrams to tho British lady Olaudia, with others to Linus and Pudons, und thoso aro supposed to bo tho very porsons mentioned by St. Paul in his second opistlo to Ti mo llly. Claudia is thought by somo writers to bo tho first British Christian. Elab?ralo proof is brought forward in this matter. Three persons bearing these uaiues ure spoken of by St. Paul as his friends, and it is olaim ed that they were at Homo in less than half of tho first century. Tho lady Claudia is said to bo related to Curaotaous who was in Homo in 51, in G'i Paul was at Homo, and in G7 murdered by Nero. In 00 Martial died at au advanced ago. Claudia was said to have boon a very beautiful woman, and a zeal ous pioneer in tho Christian civilization of Britain. That Paul should have commended her BO highly to thc affections of his brctb rou, is proof suflioieut of tho exaltation of her oharaotcr, and that tho poet Martial should have singled herself and Putlcns, ber hus band, as shining marka for bis musical pro ductions, shows their position in tho social j scalo. Tho historical facts aro all recorded very minutely, and add a strong and beautiful link to the olaim of evidence os thc authen ticity of St. Puul's epistles. A number of female stars shot suddenly across tho horizon in tho early days of Christianity. Tho. Em press Helena, wife of thc Kornau Emperor Constantino Cblorus, and mother of Constan tine Great, was a British maiden and not only instructed tho first Christian Emperor, but shed thc light of a fino intellect on thc litera ture of her country. Sho was considered ono of thc brightest stars in Britain's galaxy of letters. Christianity is favorable to female improve ment. Not to sulfrago-shrieking, but to tho highest culture of every beautiful womanly power, and "sweet attractive grace." lt is thc garden where woman may cultivate tho loveliest flowers ol'earth, tho finest fruits of literature, and tho most precious healing balsams for diseased morals. Woman's sphere is a high and holy ono, it was so de signed by ber Creator, and when she stops out of it her feet must bc soiled with miro and dirt. Assume poet has said, if she only worthily fills her proper sphere, "A world is weak before her." Er*x" Arkansas has a celebrated will case which has been hanging in thc court for thir teen years. The jury at Marion, Arkansas, recently brought in a verdict for the defend ant, when tho opposing counsel demanded that thc Judge should cause tho Jury to bo polled, and it was accordingly so ordered, three names had been called, and the quos sion "ls this your verdict?" addressed to tho fourth, a man named Mitchell, but before he could reply bc uttered a keen, sharp scream, aa if in mortal agony, and dropped apparent lifeless. Evory effort was made to restore him, but at hist accounts he was still unable to speak, and thc great will case of Lackland vs. Jones is still in abeyance. Thc doctor pronounces his disease apoplexy. If ho dies before answering tho question thc whole case will have to bc tried over ?gain. ifi?" John Bunyan was rather gay in his youth, and even in his latter years he was cbargad with infidelity to his wile. Ile re pelled thc charges ina way worthy of note. At that time it was customary for tho mom bars of churches when they parted to greet each oilier with a Indy kiss. When John defended himself, be said, "1 do confess thal I have carried out thc command fairly and Scripturally; fur I have endeavored to dis charge my duty of kissing all, pretty and ugly; while I have noticed that my brothers, who have made this charge, have kissed the pretty sisters, and let tho ugly ones pass by." J&rTy*" It is said that once in thc company of a literary gentleman, Mr. Webster was asked if bc could comprehend bow Jesus Christ could be both God and man. "No, sir," bo replied, and added, "1 should be . ashamed to acknowledge Him as my Savior if I could comprehend Him, He could not bo greater than myself. Such is my sense of sin and consciousness of my inability to save my self, that I fed I need a super human Sa viour, one so great and glorious that I cannot comprehend Him." MAD DOOS.-Two dogs were killed in town last Saturday, says tho Newberry "Her aid." Thc gave evidence of madness. Ono of tho dogs had severely bitten two colored people on tho place, who wcro familliarly known to them. A Constantinople paper gives quo tations of female slaves.

Tho Duko of Wellington's writing was largo and forcible, with no nttompt at deco ration. During tho last tot) yours of his life, howovcr, his writing waa indifferent, and of ten illogible. Nono but a compositor in a newspaper ollieo, accustomed to all sorts of hieroglyphics, could possibly decipher thc oharaeters. A letter of his toa munsterTn Lord Derby's Cabinet has not to this day boen unraveled. Niue out of every ten cf] tho Duke's letters treasured by autograph hunt ors were written by his Secretary, Mr. Greville, who who wrote a hand very much like that of the Duko in his best days. Lord Brougham's hand betrayed much unconquerable restlessness of impulse. His manuscript was a mass of hieroglyphics; and, according to Dr. Redknap, in all Mr. Clowes' entensive printing establishment in London, there was only one man competent to grapplo with it, and ho often gave up iti despair. The Royal family of England have gener ally written good, olear and freo hands. William IV. wrote a remarkable plain aud legible hand, and that of his brother Ccorge was showy and fluent. Queen Victoria hus an elegant signature. Lobke says tho fastor a man writes, tho slower others read what he has written. Na poleon could write, fourtceu pages a minuto; unfortunately, however, each page coosisted of eight blots nod a splatter. Somo of his lines to Maria Louisa appear os if scattered over thc paper by thc explosion of a bomb shell. Horace (Greeley's manuscript is very ille gible. A wag once observed that tho sen tence "Virtue is its own reward," written by Mr. Creely, was rendered by the compositor into "Washing with soap is Wi? ol ly absurd." Charleston Advertisements.
