The Immigration Society of Newborry S.

Besides this, the Society will set aside from the money -advanced'"$.00 from each order?wheth er for a singlu laborer or family?to es tablish u fund to seoure faom loss, rcsult ingTrom failure of the immigraut to em bark, after his passago has been paid, otc. This fund is also for tho purpose of reimbursing any employer who can satisfactorily show that a laborer has left him before he could refund the money prepaid for his traveling expenses. The contribution for coutiugent ex penses is not included in this fund. Any amount of the fund remaining at the end of the year 1870, will bo return ed to employer in proportion to what they have paid. The contingent expenses and tho con tribution for the fund agains^ losses, which tho Society might sustaiu, must be paid by. tho employer and not be de ducted from the wages of tho employee. If the Socioty fails to fill an order, it 'will return tho money advanced, deduct idg only the postage. Tho Society has appointed Agents ?only at Charleston, Columbia and New tery, if, however the ordercr "desires Im migrants to be forwarded to othor points, he must some one at such place to take ?charge of them and the name of such .person must bo communicated to the subscriber. Tho Socioty pays tho travelling ex penses only to stations along the South Carolina aud Grccuvillo aud Columbia Kail lloads und will not responsible for expenses iuourrce on other Hail Roads. Upun the arrival of tho immigrant the ?Society will make out a bill of all ex penses and prescut to tho person order ing for settlement. The wages of the immigrants will be fixed as follows, unless a laborer consents to a reduction : FIEL D-L A BO RE RS. - 1st. Single Lahorkr ? $10.00 monthly, with board, lodging and wash ing. (jSot required to do his own cook ing.) ^d. Fa .mi Li is. For a mau $10.00 monthly, for a working woman $5.00 with provisions. Tho employer can ! either have the cooking done, or ho can give thorn rations nnd allow tho wife time to oook. The following rations have been prov en by last yoar's experience, to bo Huffi oient: For a man: 6 quarts coru lueql, 4J pounds wheat flour, 3? pounds mout, A pound coflfeo, 1} quarts molasses a week and somo milk daily. For a woman : 4 corn meal, 2 (pounds wbeat flour, 2 pounds meut, A pouud coffee, 1 quart molasses a week, and somo milk daily. Should tbe employer prcfor giviug tbe family money with whicb io'procure pro cure provisions, tho amount fixed upon is about (5.50 a month for a man, nnd ?4.00 for a wouian, with u small gnrdun, which must bo worked only in spare time. Children, capable of work, must be paid according to their services: and tho wages must be arrauged betweeu the employer and their parents. MECHANICS. All persons desiring mechanics must define what wages nnd conditions they are willing to enter iuto with employees. Unless differently expressed in the or der, all immigrants will consider them selves engaficd uutil Christmas, 1870. ^ The immigrant, in cases of disagree ment with his employer, shall always be allowed to make his uppeal to the Socie ty, which, if tho Complaint is well found ed and canuot be adjusted, will proceed to obtain him another place. Employers would do well, not to ex pect expectations by making the immi grants any promises, about the fulfill ment of w*iieh there can bo any doubt, and this avoid ouc great cause of discon tent. It is advisable, the Society thinks, to place the laborer at tho very work be is to do : und to .see that be does it proper ly. This would do much towards se curing a good and fuitbful laborer.

G/EM ANN, General Agent of the IuWni-ration So ciety of Ncwbcrry^f How to Oarvr and Help at Tablk.?It is considered jin accomplish ment for a lady to know how to carve well at bcr own table. It is not proper to stand in carving.?Tbe carving knife should be sharp and thin. To carve fowls, (which should always be laid with tho brest uppermost,) place tbe fork in tbe breast, and take off tbe wings and legs without turning tbe fowl; then cut out tho merry thought, cut slices fVom the broavt, take out tbe collar bone, cut off tbe side pieces, and then cut tbe carcass in two.?Divide the joiuts in the leg of a turkey. Iu carving u sirloin, cut thin slices from the side next to you, (it must be put on the dish with tbe tenderloin underneath.) then turn it, and cut from the tenderloin.?Help tbe guest to both kinds. In carving a leg of mutton, or a bam, begin by cutting across tho middle to tbe bone. Cut a tongue across, and uot lengthwise, and help from tbe middle part. Carve a fore-quarter of lamb by separat ing the shoulder from the ribs, and then divide the ribs. To carvo a loin of veal, begin at tho 8imtlior cud and sepcrate tbe ribs. Help each one to a piece of kidney and its fat. Carve pork and mutton in the same way. To carvo a fillet of veal, begin at tho top nnd help to the stuffing with each slice. In a breast of veal separate tho breast and brisket, and then cut them up, asking which part is preferred. In carving a pig, it is custontury to divide it nnd take off the hend before it comes to tho table, ns^ to many persons tbe bend is revolting. Cut off the limbs and divide tho ribs. In carving venison, make n deep in cision down to tho bone to let out tho juices, then turn the broad end toward you, cutting deep, in thin slices. For a snilddle of venison, cut from the tail toward tho other end, on euch side, in thin slices. Wurtu plates arc very necessary with venison and mutton, and in winter arc desirable lor all meats.? National Agriculturist, A child, iu reply to tbe question: "Where is your home?" replied, looking I at her mother, 'My homo is where moth ar's is." Let The Kepublc be Grateful. One of tho world's hard-workers has gone to rest,?ono who hud learned in his country's service to "suffer aud be strong;" one who had been content to do hiH duty, albeit fame and wealth?all the prizes of this world?were not awarded. Gen. John A. Rawlius,-ChieY of Staff to our first General, and Secre tary of War to the General made Presi dent, has douc more for thin country than will ever appear from'writtcrV his tory. The labors of some men aro made conspicuous without their special seek ing; their talents cntch the eyes of tho public at some propitious moment, aud their fidelity, energy and unselfishness, keep them in high position. There arc other men whose abilities and faithfulness and moral worth are quite as unquestion ed, to whom Providence seems to nssign positions wherein these go almost unre quited. Few who adinirn tho brilliant record of Gen. Grant know how much he was indebted for his fame and success to tho vigilance and executive industry of his late Chief of Stuff. It was duriug those weary weeks at Vicksburg?when tho dreaded night attack was only to bo averted by incessant watchfulnes, when exposures to the death-damp were us little thought of as disturbed dreams? that the nation's grandest Fourth of duly was bought by a mortgage on the life of the General's, Adjutant. No one read the name of llawlins on the scroll of that victory, but he whose fame was thereby established knew the worth of his own right hand, and nobly recognized his indebtedness to it. The only substantial rewards which have fallen to this man of quiet heroism arc those which a true heart most values, those which, can be carried through this world one into the next without suffering! dimunitiou or decay. The friendship of noble souls and the blessed discipline of self-Bacrificc have been granted him in largo measure. The great chieftains of the Uniou are his loversjatho heritage.of* work fell to turn not as honors full upon tho ambitious, but as ministrations of good fall to the hands of the angels. A wider reputation or a higher offiee could not have made more peaceful the dying reflections of Secretary llawlins. But there was an anxiety, which made a ripple on that lakemirror of a devoted life. In a distant town the loving wife, but n few days since a di-appointcd mother, shared with him the bitter pros pect' which lies before a family of child ren, unprovided for. "My greatest joy in life is the educa tion of my buys," said tho dying officer. Thoso "large-hearted old soldiers who were standing by their comrade's death bed, could not help responding, "dive us your boys. General, we will adopt them;" but no, country has a higher claim than even those dear companions in arms. For us, during years of priva tion, the departed gave all too freely of his vital energies; for us the wakeful night, the harassed day, the faithfulness in obscurity, the slowly recognized but never flinching application of varied talent to duties more various than ordin ary men ever encounter. We cannot nllow even personal friendship to pay the interest?all that is possible to pay ?on oi/r debt of gratitude. "Many of our citizens have already signed a document, the figures whereof affirm that the children of Secretary llawlins nrc to be adopted l>y their coun try. Let every one who acknowledges the claims of patriotism, and the inspiration of pure religion, remember these father less and this widow in their affliction, and according to his means enclose check, bank-note or stamp, to Gen. 1). Butter field, United States Sub-Treasury, New iTork. It was pleasant for the father to die for his country ; let us make it picas 'ant for his bereaved family to live in it. Truth is the nurse of happiness. Revenge never repairs an injury. Enjoy what litle you have whilo the fool is looking for more. A handful of mother-wit is worth a bushel of learning. There is no better looking-glass than an old true friend. Love is like honesty?much talked about, but littlo understood. At K?nigsberg, Prussia, during the festival in honor of the visit of the King of Prussia, the railings of tho bridge, which was ovorcrowded with spectators, burst, and many were precipitated into the river. Twenty-four bodies have been recovered. A Woman's Kxpkrikspk in Tur key j*aising.?A lady correspondent in the Western Rural wholes been very successful in raising turkew thus details the plan she pursues. Shesaya: ? We huve been generally successful iu our efforts to raise tui-ke\j, usually mit losing more than twenty ptr cent, of tho number hatched ; half the losses result ing from accidents and minks or wcas bcIb : I prefer hatching thi eggs under ohicken hens. I think uite eggs to the hen sufficient. The nest should be off tUo ground. Heavy tlflfcuier will kill the unhatched chick if on the ground. Tho young turkeys must no| be exposed to dampness or cold till thej are at least three weeks old. They mubi. bo kept on a clean dry floor on rainy or cloudy days und of mornings till the dey has disap peared. A custard, composed of milk, egg and crumbs or crusts of bread, I havo fouud the best food. Cheese ourd, or Bour milk curd can bo added afior they begin to feather. I would earnestly condemn oornmeal as fit feed till t turkeys aro nearly full feathered. Our turkeys brought one hundred dollars the past year, aftcrdeducting ex press nnd commission expanses. We do not know what the raising of them cost, but estimate it at fifty dollars. Chicken hens lay. on an uverngc, eighty eggs a yoar each, for two years. They decline after the second year ancl should not be kept longer for laying pur poses. One acre would afford sufficient ran?rc for 100 hens, and more than that num ber should not be in one enclosure. A 15 acre lot would rcquiro to be divided into fifteen enclosures, and would afford a range for fifteen hundred hens. If Brahimis are kept tho division fences need not be more than fouY nnd a half feet high if one wing is clipped. The llrahmus would be the b^st fur market _f\_. l.. i *jifmul^. /?>,.., ?P two divisions should be kept for breeding to supply the places of those sent to market. It is astonishing, that, at the high prices eggs and poultry have brought in the markets for several years past, that the business has not been sufficiently in creased by competition to lower the prices. Yet the prices seem rather to advance than recede, affording great cu couragetuont fur large investments in that line. -?^? Manure.?It may be laid down as a settled principle that if we would have good compost manure?we must?1. I'se good materials to make it of. It has been well said, "Out of nothing, nothing can come," and this proverb is as true of compost manures as of anything else. 2. We must thoroughly pulverize and mix tho materials. They should be piled up in order to protect them as much as possible from the sun and rain. Tho pile should be occasionally forked over, by which means it will become well mixed and finely pulverized. If this work has been neglected, now is the time to do it. Seize the first cloudy day and attend to the compost heap. If this is done, the manure will be worthy of tbe name, and will be of use and value. The fire started some weeks ago in the Dismal Swamp, Vn., has extended twen ty miles, is still raging, and bos destroy ed timber, staves and bhingles valued at about 8200.0(H). Several fine farms have been burnt out, and where were once rieh fields are now seen acres of ash-pits, some of which are fifteen feet deep. Tbe trains on the Petersburg Road are delay ed every day by the fall of burning tim ber, which not only blocks up the way, but burns tho ties and twists the rails. When the wind is.We.st, vessels iu the James River have to anchor, on account of the dense smoke. The swamp in many places is dry down to the sub-soil, from four to fiftton feet, and bc'.ng of a light, itiflummublo character?roots and vegetable remains?tbe fire extends to the ground boueath. Wild game?deer, bears and wild turkeys?have been driven out in groat numbers, and are devastat ing the surrounding crops. All the avail able negroes of Norfolk havo been hired to savo tho stock of staves and shingles. One manufacturer took 400 a few days ago, and wanted to get 1,000. Nothing will avail u> check tho fire but long continued showers of rain. It is not what we read, but what we re member, that make us wise a Father Forced to Lbt his Son DltOWN in ORDKR TO save many Liveh.?An occurrence of an exceed ingly melancholy character is reported to have taken place.yesterday afternoon at the Passaic river bridge of the Newark and New York Railroad. A little boy ten years of age, tho son of Mr. Decker, the bridge tedder, fell overboard. The draw was open at the time* and a train of cars being nour at hand, comiug ulong at a swift rate, the unfortinate man was unable to leave his post e'?e the entire passenger train would be ui danger of dashing iuto the river; so that the ergon irod father hnd to look on and actually see his child sink, thiugh he could easily have saved him. \Vhr?u the draw was closed he went to look fo: the body, aud he found it with life cxthct. Redundant aud expressive though it b>, tho English language docs not contain words that would convey an idea even of the fearful ordeal through which poor Dceker passed during those few terrible momenta. Who can picture the feelings of that agonized, heart-broken parent, when he picked up the body of his child ?"Dead! dead! My (Jod, dead!" as he frantically exclaimed.?[ActrarA (lY. J.) Journal. It is hot the least remarkable fact iu the history of the times that (Jene. 1 Haw Ii us died poor. Radicalism will trll you it was his own fault, lioncst men will tell you it was one of his greatest virtues. "He occupied a position," says the Chicago Tinte?, "from 18(51 to his death, in 1809, at oycry portion of .which he could have made hi.-, services and in fluence of pecuniary value. No other man has been situated so as to have made .more money with less trouble or liability of exposure.

Let those who want to thoroughly appreciate the nobility of his character, his devotion to duty, and his wonderful abnegation, not omit to notice that, with an opportunity to accumulate millions, he died poor." Counterfeits.?Government detec tive* have; obtained possession of the lithograph stone from which the five-dol lar counterfeit greenbacks that have been extensively circulated iu the South and South-west were struck. It is estimated that from this stone alone over $fj00,000 of spurious notes huve been printed. They huve also obtained possession of the stone from which the counterfeit five-dollar bills on the Jcwctt National Rank, of Newett, Conn., that were so extensively circulated a few months ago, were printed. The principals of this extensive gang of counterfeiters aro now in custody. London churches arc nearly deserted at this sensou. A correspondent of a religious paper writes that he rcccutly attended three churches in succession on Sunday morning. At tho first the con gregation cousisted of one old woman and the charity children. At the second ho was the only worshipper, and there was no service ; and at the third there was no clcrumnn to read tho ?ervice to the handful who?asscniblcd. RST.IOION that WILL \YBAR.?There is not much solidity in religion that will not stand tho test of every day experience. "Thoro arc a good many pious people," anys Douglas Jorrold, "who are as caie ful of their religion as their heat service of china, only using it on holiday occas ions, for fear ?t should get chipped or flawed in working-day wear." That species of religion may do for a show, but there's little substance iu it. It is too 6nc for use. A Darkey returning from church was asked to givo an account of the sermon. 'Well, sah, do sermon was upou do miracle ob de loaves and do fishes. Do minister said how der was seven thousand loaves and five thousand nahes divided between dc twclvo* postlc." "Well, what miracle was there about that?" Why, sah, do miriclc was dat doy didn't bwt! dat's my perception oh do circumstance." Leisure is sweet to those who have earned it, but burdensome to those who have got it fox nothing. What a Jilted Damskl Should Do.?Horace Oreeley gives the following advice to jilted women, who contemplate bringing suit for breach of promise : "A deserted damsel, instead of bringing her action, may say: ''Go, wretched man, be happy if you can ; but when you join that gay and festive throng, and other eyes thau mine look, love to yours, re member that your perfidious vow, the lyiug utterance of your serpent tongue, the empoisoned honey of your perjured lips, that moon, tbat walk, that declara tion sweet, the kiss that you first offered ?dream of these until the perjured brain no longer thinks, and madness kindly comes to your rolief, tfc, &c, &c./" What man of the lenrt sus ceptibility would: not father pay mode rate damages than receive a blasting nine times withering curse like this?"

The clerk replied in the affirmative, end the two were "spliced" iu less than an hour. Tho bride-groom was evident ly not yet satisfied, and liugered around the hotel-book. "Clerk," said he, confidentially, at length, "hadn't ye better change tho register, nnd giveusouo room, now we'ro married V | "Tt's already done" replied the clerk ' "you're marked for tho same room." ; "Well, clerk" replied the Keutuckian, quickly, "won't you just show mc up, then for I'm awful, tlccjty. Josh Hillings' Maxims.?I honestly believe it iz better tew know nothing than tew know what ain't so. (loin' to law is like skinning a new milk cow for the hide and giving the meat tew tho lawyers. Whou you haint got nothing to do. do it nt once j this is the way to be bizzy. Tbe less .a man knows, the more he will nips* ntiT arid euessinir is nothing more than suspicion. * Murk Twain thus describes, in tbe Buffalo Exprestf a remarkable citizen of that place: "John Wagner, the oldest man in Buf falo?104 years?recently walked a mile and n half in two weeks. He is as cheer ful and bright ns any ot those other oldj men that charge nrouud so in the news papers, and is iu every way as remarka ble, hast November he walked five blocks in a ruin storm, without any shel ter but an umbrella, and cant his vote for Grant, remarking that he had voted for forty-seven presidents?which was a lie. His "sccoud crop of rich brown hair" arrived from New York yesterday, aud he has a new set of teeth coming? from Philadelphia. He is to be married next week to a girl 102 years old, who still takes in washing. They have been engaged eighty years, but their parents persistently refused their consent until three days ago." A western editor, in response to a sub scriber who grumbles that his paper was intolerably damp, says: "That it is because there is so much due ou it."

Wrst Virginia Politics.-^ A new Legislature for West .Virginia is to be elected October 28lb, (says the Ricb mond Examiner.) and the leading iflsus' is the re-enfranchisement of the ei-Con* federate officers and soldiers. Many of the leading public men among the ?e publicans of the State, together with tho Wheeling Iutelligoncer, the leading Re publican organ, have already taken posi tion in the affirmative, and this fact, iu addition to the spirit manifested by the Supreme Court of the new State jn its recent decision upon the "Greenbner cases," gives ample assurance that West Virginia, like Tennessee, Missouri and old Virginia, is about to start off on '-the broad guagc." > ?~ The New York Custom Iloas?, it is well known, is provcrbini fur the many abuses that prevail there. It is asserted, that the "weighers" for many years Ifltvc been accustomed to engage in other employments, leaving the work to be su perintended by the foreman, and only visi ting the Custom House to draw their pay ?nd the perquisites that, in their familiar, langi~,,et could be "scooped in.'* The new Collator, bowever, it is asserted has determined tonatan end to thejMj ?b*^ - The milk in New% Yoiv acoording ;t6i the investigations of the Dot. 4 ^ Health of that city, comes from the wholes. , er in nearly every instance in an adul-. tcratcd condition, and is further largely adulterated before it passes into the hand of indivdual consumers.

Make the standard of Christianity sufficiently luw, aud you can very easily multiply conversions.
