I know lots of ship eaptaina that would stow me away wader their holds, almost aoy moonlight night/* Lilias looked despairingly at him. Was it, then, impossible to make him comprehend the moral obliquity ef the deed he had just cum mit ted ? 'But I can't stsy fooling here," ob served the young man, with a tose af bis blsck curls. **I most be off about my business. ? Good bye, Lill. Give us a kiss, my girl 1 Except that you're un common foadef lecturing a fellow, you're not a bad sister in the main." After he had gone, Lilias eat down te try and realise the new situation in which ehe aad her brother were j laced. All now depended upon the spirit in whieb Paulus Glencross should receive this aew encroach men t upon his purse and patience. Lily had never seen this distant rela tion, yet abe had formed an opinion of him in her inmost uiigd, aa we ell are apt to do of unseen persons whom we hear a great deal about; aad whenever she thought of Mr. Gleneroee, the image of a hook-uoaed old man, yellow akiuaed aud cadaverous, engaged to sortiag over piles of mortgagee, or counting begs of gold, suggested itself to her mental aye. "But he must be human, at least." thought Lily, in the agony of her dis tress. "If 1 go to him myself, sod tell him jast whet poor Charley's necessities were, and bow good-hearted he really is, ia spite of all hi* faulte and thought lepsueee-? if 1 ssy iraukly to him that 1 have uo money uor jewels to reimburse him, but that 1 will stay sod work for him, aa a servant girl might work ia the kitchen, uutil 1 have discharged the hor rible debt, surely, O sur ly he eauaot base she heart to refuse. 1 can do a great rnaay things. 1 can aew and em broider, aad 1 could make good bread aad biscuit, and poor mamma always said I was a good housekeeper, and if Mr. Gleocroee ia rwally so miserly as Charley thinks, he would look at the economy of the thing.

" Way land K' A shadow, faint, yet distinctly perceptible, overspread bis face at that word, and Lilias saw it with a failing heart. She fofgut the labored tpecch of palliation and exenae that she had prepared.- She forgot that he was no silver-haired patriarch, hat a hand, some young man, surrounded with all the adjuncts of wealth and luxury. She remembered only peer Ch-rlsj and her own sickening idea of debt, disgrace, and rdin; nod sinking on her knees at his feet, she sobbed out her pitiful story. '?Be is so young," ehe wailed, "so young, surely you will not refuse to give him another ebenen tor name and fame I I will work and toil far yva until the fire hundred dollars are every cent paid. 1 will be a servant; a seamstress?what you please, only preeuiee me that you will not visit him with the penalties uf the lav 1" Her voice died into quivering aHcace, bat her eyes still appealed.

The Mat Convention?Circular or the State Institute.?The follow ing circular letter has been eddreased to the officers sad members of the county agricultural societies : Charleston, February 15. At a called meeting of the members of the South Carolina Institute, on the 9th instant, among other procoediugs, the following resolution was submitted by Hoo. W. I). Porter, end, on due consideration, waa unanimously adopted : Ktsolrrd, That the neeaedeot of the South Carolina Institute be requested to invite delegations from tho various county agricultural and mechanical and immigration societies throughout the State to assemble in Charleston, on the first Tuesdsy (3rd,) in May next, to take iotq consideration the questions of labor And imnrrpretiuto, and means for further development of the agricultural interests of the State. Gentlemen.?As the executive offi cer of the South Carolina Institute Association, 1 take the earliest oppor tunity to lay before yea the appended resolution, and respectfully to invite an earnest consideration of its import, and the appointment of such number of dele gates as year association, club or org aoiaetion may deem proper. Authorized credentials from the pre siding officer of thtVrUpVjctivo Societies will pass delegates 00 the South Carolina Railroad for half the usual fare, as doubt less will be adopted by other lines of rend. The paramount importance of e broad and onjitei organisation, as iudicated hy the resolution, is self-evident. To Induce settlers, immigration and efficient laborers to till the fertile and genial leads of South Carolina, and bring out her varioua resources of manufactur ing aad other talmnrial pursuits, de mauds co-operative action of the people, from the mountain region to theses board, and the iaauence ef all true men ought fo be enlisted.

Plowed ft In nine inches deep. The ground was theo h t rowed. and tho drills opened two feet1 apart. Two bags of Peruvian guano and two of Baugh'b raw bone phosphate were then mixed, put into the drills, and covered ready for sowing. The-drought prevented .sowing until the 30th August. 1 planted the seed in hills eight inches apart, got a good stand, but the drought ef September caused a slow growth until October. One-third of the acre was sown in English Norfolks, one-fourth of an acre in Winter turnips, and the re mainder in Kuta j,agas. On the 16th November, 1869, took an average of the English Norfolks which was ?t the rate j of 745 bushels per acre. On the 29th December took another average in the P+eeence of J. B. McMillan and?*. H. Pcarco, aud found it to be p\ the rate 6f bushels per acre. On the 27th __ibe. took f*?rerage of the Rufen jBagas which v. m '603} bushels per acre. Oa the 30th February took another ave rage and found it 8921 birshcls par acre. TUB MI'S. Statement uf C. W.

The result was 6-16 4-5 bushels to the aero. They com menced rotting at that time aud were dug. POTATOES. I planted a half acre in sweet potatoes, which was manured from my cow-lot. The rows were 3J feet apart. The yield was 200 bushels. POTATORS. Statem.nt of D. F. McClammy?1 first cow-penned the ha'f ncre intended for sweet potatoes, then broadcasted 20 loads of stable manure on it. I then ran off the rows three and a half feet apart, and drilled- stable manure in the rows. The half acre yielded 226 bush els. Home. -Home ia a thing, a law, a life that has no necessary couiiootiuu with abounding wealth. In the absence of this it beautifies and ennobles a cottage, a room, a fireside, and plays the angel with the careworn face, the tired body, the decrepid age. How many cry out givo us money, wealth, influence, and we, too, would be happy ! Not so, certainly. The first desidera tum is home; a place where all beauti ful feelings and things?which are not born of any otrouinsii!>oe? ubjund ; where the spirit of love, peaob, virtue, contentment presides. A place of safety and of rest. A retreat from the o >u fused world, into whose sacred chambers the tumult and clamor of rivalling passions, and tho raea for riehen never break?where mother, father, wife, sister, brother, children are natural, true, ooufiding and Think you each a place is the creation of wealth?
