Tho following story of old times in South Carolina is told of tho loured Dr. Maxoy; Oa ono oocsiotf, several of tho students of South Carolina Collcgo resolved to drag tho doo tor's cirri ago into thc woods, and fixed upon a night for tho performunoo of tho exploit.' Opo of their number, how ever, was troubled with sumo compunctious visiting?, and managed to - convoy to tho worthy President a hint that it would bo woll for him to secure thc door of the oar riago house. Instead of paying any heed to this sugesti?n, tho doctor proceeded op tho appointed night to tho carriage house rind onsconsod his portly person inside the vohiolo. In less than on hour some half dozen young gentlemen enuc to his retreat mid cautiously withdrew thc carriage into tho road. When they were fairly out of tho ,collcgo precincts they begau to joke freely with oaoh other by name. Oub of them ootnplainod of tho weight ojf tho carriage,-ond auothor replied by swear ing it was hoavy enough to hayo tho old fellow himsolf inside For nearly a milp tho prooocded along tho.highway,-and.thoo struck iuto tho woods to a oover which they concluded would effectually conceal tho, yehibl?. Making themselves inUuitolyJ roerry at tho doctor's. e'jjWnsofand ?ppjcej-j Stiring how ond ' when ho would Wrfuias\ .carriage, thoy ot ' length* roached tho spot whero they had resolved to lcavo it:. Just os thoy wore about to depart-having once moro ogrocd that "tho cnrri.igo was heavy enough to have tho old ,doctor ond all his tribo ia it"-they; we're startled by tho sutj-,.-, den dropping of one of thc glass panels, and . . tho wollknowu voioo of the doctor himself thus addressing thom: "So, so, young gootlomch1, you oro goinb to loavo mo in tho woods, aro you? Surely, ns you have brought mo hither for your own gratification, you will not rcfuso to take ' roo baok f?r mino. Como, Mr,--, anil'' .-, and-, bucklo |o and let \\? re turn; its getting lato." ' M Thoro was no appoalj for tho window w<fs raised nod tho doctor resumed his soot. Almost without a word, tho discomfited .young gentlemen took their places ot thc pole, and tho book of tho vehicle ond quite as expoditiouttlyj if with less voioo, did they rotrado their courso. - In silence they dragged thc carriage into its wontod place, and then retreated precipitately to their rooms, to dream of tho account thoy must render on tho morrow. Wheo they liud rotirod, tho doctor quietly vacated tho oar! (tiaga and wont to his house whero h??ro lated thc ?tory to Iiis family with much gjefc. J lo never called tho li er?os of that nouturuial .expedition to on account, nor was tho elir riago over* afterward dragged nt night iuto tho woods. A ?catii Ked Witness. A Now York journal gives tho following inoident, whioh we roproduco as a warning to poor rich men: "A gentleman died last wcok, at his residence in one of our up town fashionable streota, leaving ?11,000,000. He was a mombcr of tho Frcsbytcrion Churoh, in excellent standing, n good husband and father, and a thriving citizen. On his death bed, Jingoring long, ho suffcrod with great agony of mind, and gavo oonjtinuol oxprossioa to his remorse at what his: oon eoionoe told him had boon an ill spent life. "Oh," ho exclaimed, ns his weeping friends and relatives.^athorod about his^bod-"bb, if I oould only livo my years over again; Oh, if I could only bo.sparod a fow years I would give all:tho wealth I havo amassed in a lifo time. It ia a lifo devoted to monoy getting that I regret. It is this whi?h weighs mo down and mnkes mo despair of the (Jife. hereafter." His clergyman en deavored to sootho him, but ho turned his faco to tho wall. "You hovo called it a wiso economy and forethought, but my riches havo been only a snare for my soul! I would givo all I possess to havo hope for roy poor soul!". In this state of mind, refusing to bo consoled, this poor rich man bewailed a lifo dovotod to the mero acqui sition of riches. Many carno away from his bedside impressed with tho uselessness of such mi ? existence ns tho wealthy man hod spont, adding houso to houso, and dollar to dollar, until he booatno a million niro. All knew him to bo a professing Christian and n good mah As tho world goes, but tho terror and romorso of his death bod administered a lesson not to be lightly dis missod from momory. Ho would havo given nil his wealth for a singlo hopo of hofivon." j-?. . <, Tho laziest mari io: Amorioo is n Con necticut negro.

Such a ono will no moro Bwoar than go into tho street to throw mud with n clodhopper. It is indecent, offensive to delicacy, and extremely unfit for human oars. It is foolishness. Want of dcoonoy is want of good common sense. It is abusive. To tho mind? which con ceives tho oath, to tho tongue which utters it ami to tho person ot whom, it is aimed. ?It is Venomous.

CONCEALED WEAPON^.-Wo tako, froui tho Abbeville Medium Homet bin cr IQ roto rouoo to tho hubit of currying oouocalod weapons, What is said of Abbeville applies with equal forco to Sumter. [Southron. Tho ooxt Legislature should pass a law with very stringent provisions against carry ing oonoealod deadly woapous. In nearly ovory newspaper there is somo horrid talo of bloodshed and murder by men under tho iufluonoo of unnatural passion, holped along by loaded rovolvor and damning drink. At this pince-, in civilized Abbe vi ?io, every uow and then somo man is fthot at ro?nd the ooroer and tho polieo ja pulled in to provont the cri mo: List Friday, when tho square was crowded with p copi o from o rory part of tho county, a number of pistol shots wore fired OQ the streets, right among tho crowd, to tho jeopardy of human lifo and "against tho pouoo and dignity of tho .Stato," This sort of thing ought to bo stopped, and the best way to do it is to passa law making it a jail offonso for carrying a loaded pistol upon tho person except in time of war and in tho eervioo of tho country. Pistols aro dtngorous playthings cspeolally in tho bands of drunken fools. A PROSPEROUS FARMER.-When you ; soo a barn largor than his houso it shows that be will havo largo profits and small afQiotionc. Wheo you seo him driving his ( work it shows that ho will never be driven ( from good resolutions, and that ho will ( oortniuly work his way to prosperity. When , you seo in hts woodhouse a sufficiency for , thrco months or moro, it shows that ho will ( b? moro thou a ninety days' woudor iu farming operations, and ho is not sleeping i in his houso after a drunken frolic When ( his sled is housed in summor aud his furm- , ing implements covered both winter and summor, it plainly shows that ho will havo a good houso over his hoad in tho summer | of his early lifo and winter of his old ago. 1 When his oattlo aro properly shielded and i f?d in winter, it evinces that ho is noting | acoording to Scripture whioh says that "a merciful man is mcroiful to his heart." Wheu ho is soon subscribing for a paper ! und paying in advance, it shows that he is speaking liko a book rospeoting tho im- ? provements in agriculture, and that he nover gets his walking papers to tho land of poverty. His ONLY TERMS.-TIIO . old saying that, somo men would wnnt moro if they hnd a billion, was exemplified recontly when a Windsorito and a Dotroiter got into a 1 disputo ot thc ferry dook. Said tho Oona- 1 dian, "You ought to bo well pounded, and I'm tho mau to do it! However, 1 don't | understand tho laws over hero, and don't | want to be locked up. If you will oome , over to Oauada I'll pay your fair both ways on tho bout, buy your dinner, troot you to cigars, lick you till you can't squeal, and ] send you homo with beef in your eyes." I Tho American thought of tho proposition . awhile, und then asked: - ' "If I go over, will you buy mo a now ' ovcrooatl"' [ * ( "I-I-yes, by thunder, I willi" replied | the mad Windsorito. "And a new suit of clothes?" ^ . "No,.! won't. That's asking too muoh!" I "Well, those are tho only terms I was ovor licked on," calmly replied thc othor, "and jour rejection of them shows that you arc all blow nod no fight." Thuy took it out iu jawing. . How THEY CROSSED THE KED SEA. A colored prcaoher in Florida thus heh! forth: "My brudring, the Israelites went over the Ked Soa on the icc. They all got ovef safe; and dut's do reason why Moses sung tho hymn of praise. In de morning when de sun was up, hot, Pharaoh and do 'Gyp tians como wid dcir great lumberin' chariots of iron. Doy broke through do ico and ?ll went to the bottom of dc sea. "Stop dcre!" exclaimed a hearer, "I want to ask a ques tion, l.'vt? read gogrnphy and Egypt's a hot country, ll 6 nuder tho 'quator, and doro ain't no ice doro. How could doy go over on do ico, and dore no icc doro?" To whioh tho preacher responded: "I'm glad you asked dat question. Now I erm nphiin. Dat comes raadin' do g'ography instead of do Bible. My brudring, when do ohillen of Israel go over tho Hod Sen, dat was a groat, great whilo ago; beforo doro was any g'og raphy, boforo core was any tropios, boforo Jere was any'quator. Hat's do roason doro waa ioe, my brudring." A SERPENT AMONO THE HOOKS.-Ono day a gentleman in India went into his library and took down a book from the shelves. As ho did so ho felt a pain in his fiogor, like tho prick of a pin. Ho thought that n pin had been stuck by some careless ficrson iu tho cover of tho book. But soon tis finger began to swell, thon his arm, and then his whole body, and in a few days he died. It was not a pin among thc books, hut a small and deadly serpent. There arc many serpents among tho books nowadays. They ncstlo in tho fotingo of somo of our most fascinating litornturo; they ooil around the Howers whoso perfumo intoxicates tho senses. Wo read, wo aro oharmed with thc plot of tho story, by tho skill with whioh tho characters are sculptured or grouped, by tho gorgeousness of tho word p liming wo hardly tool tho pin prick of tho evil that is insinuated. But it stings aud poisons us. When tho record of human souls is mado Up, on what multitudes will bo in sorihed, "Poisoned by tho scrponts among the books!" How TO RE BEAUTIFUL.-To bo beauti ful wo must ohorish ovory kind impulso and gonerous disposition, making love tho ruling affection of tho heart, and tho ordering principio and inspiring motivo of lifo. Tho more kindness, tho moro boauty; tho moro lovo, tho moro loveliness. And this is beauty that lasts. Mero physical gond looks fado with yoars, bloaoh out with sick ness, yield to tho slow dcooy and wasting breath of mortality. But tho beauty that has its seat and souroo in kind dispositions, and noblo purposos, and great thoughts, outlast youth and maturity, increases with ago, and like tho luscious peach, covered with tho delicate plush of pyrplo and gold which comes with autumn ripeness, is dover so beautiful as when waiting to bo pluokod by tho gatherer's hand. ) -, + ? ?.I i.,.
