An cdi'or asserts that bis ancestors Iiavo been in the babit of living a hun dred years. His opponent responds by paying that "that was before the intro duction of capital punishment." A Intbcr in Massachusetts, who grew impatient at the prolonged atay of an ardent admirer of his daughter, entered the room nnd invited the young man to remain to breakfast. Tho young man declined the invitation. The other morning Jenkins announced the price of tickets in an advertisement of his coming lecture, as follows; "Tick ets fifty cents. Children supplied at the same rates." During the afternoon he received orders for throe and a pair of twins. A physician, on presenting his bill to the executor of the CBtatc of a deceased patient, asked, "Do you wish to have my bill sworn to ?" "No," Yeplied the executor : "the death of the decedent is sufficient evidence that you attended him professionally." A farmer's daughter out West receiv ed a hairy poodle dog from a friend iu Now York. Tbc unsophisticated dam eel wrote baok thanking her friend for tho present, and saying that eho found it very handy, when tied to a stick, to clean windows with. An Indian complaining to a rumscller that the price of bis liquor was too high, the latter, in justification, "baid : That it cost aa much to keep a hogshead of brandy as to ksep a cow."

"No," rrisd Douglas Jcrrold; "they bad eaten it up stairs." "Ah !" said old Mrs. Dooienbcrry, "laming if a great thing, I've often felt the need of it. Will yon bolieve it?

The unjust charges of bankrupt offi cers have at last attracted the attention of a Virginia Judgo. In tho Eastern District Court of Virginia an order has been issued which provides that "do con otruetive traveling expenses shall be al lowed to the assignee in auy caso in bank ruptcy: nor any traveling ospenses in any case, when the order desired conld be obtaiued by mail; and in no case where the assets coining to the control of tho assignee do not exceed the exemption allowed the bank nipt shall tho allowance over and above the original deposit ot |fty dollars, exceed twenty dollars to tho iXgiater, fiftceu dollars to the assignee, . and ten dollars to tho clerk, and expen ses actually and necossarily incurred." There arc suggestive newspaper items. A young widow, Mrs. Lottie Palmer, a while ago opened a photograph gallory in Racine, Wisconsin. The consequence Was a perfect passion on the part ol the gentlemen of Racine to be photopmphed.

Be It Hentern her eel. /1 a meeting of white and colored citiiens held in the city of New Orleans on the evening of the lbth instant, (Jen. P. G- T Benuregnrd,Ch?irui?u,rei olutions were unanimously ad pted "favoring, for tho wellarc of Louisiana in her present extremity, a unification of all meu of whatovcr colur, race or re ligion, who are citizens of Louisiam, and who arc willing to work for her prosperi ty : advocating the equal and impartial exercise by every citizen ol every civil and political right guaranteed by the Couslitutb n and laws of I/OU^iana, by the Constitution and laws of the United States, and I y the laws of houor, brithcr hood, und fair dealing, maintaining the right of every citizen to visit at will all places of public? resort, and to tracel at w ill on all veh' 'os of public conveyance upon terms of puu'ect equality with any and every citizen, so far aa our influence, counsel and example may go to make this right a live nnd practiced right:" The lesolutioi s fuitber doolared iu favor ol "encouraging colored citizens in rural districts to become proprietors of the soil to the extent of reeommeoding to all land proprietors of the State the policy of considering the question of breaking up tho same into small farms , in order that colored citiiens and white immigrants may become praclic.il far mers, aud 'cultivators of the soil," aud that there should be "no distinction in publio schools or State educational in stitutions :" These most wise, timely, and. in view of the position formerly oocvtpied by Gen. Beauregard, remarkable resolu tions, conclude by pledging "honor and good faith towards rapidly removing prcducies heretofore existing a gainst color, deprecating acta of violence from wbatover source," and declaring 'that in view of the mumerieal equa i ty betwoon the white and oolored ele ments of the population, we ahalladvo cate an equal distribution of offices of our State, demanding as the ouly condi tion of nur suffrage, honesty, diligenoo and ability, and we advocate this not because of the officers themselves, bot simply aa a not hor earnest proof upon our pirt that all we desire is an equal union and not an illusive eenjunctien brought about for the sola benefit of one or other Of th* psrties to that union/' When aiipb. comprehensive, liberal ?i - 'Mg11 1 1 ' "in ..':'!. '." and large-minded sentiments are public ly and emphatically uttered and en dorsed by PiKimr. G. T. Ueaurkoard, the first Generrd of the late Confederate army, a gentleman without reproach and a patriot without itain, what shall he said of the petty privates of the "home guard" whose only memories are of past animosity, whose only vocabulary is one of hate and bitterness, who never harmed their enemy in war, snd who are too malignantly imbecile to aid their friends iu peace ? The Crops. The farmers talk "blue," some of them, but they don't look as if they expected very bad things, after all. Its a way our good farmer* have, every Spring and early Summer, of being absolutely convinced that the crops are either drowned out or dried up, but, somehow or other, every Fall aud Win ter, they "come up smiling" with plenty of money to pay off liens aud othor debts, and a nice little balance for a new hor.,e or mule, buggy o*r wagon, and something else beside. Tbe truth in, that this section is perhaps the one in all the country most sure to give a cer tain returu to the farmers. They never make so large a crop to the acre as ;u Alabama aud some other States,- but then, again, they never experience the fatal disasters so common in chose States. Here the average ia good. And this is, iu truth, all things considered, the best for the farmor, pecuniarily as well as morally. If the farther-South farmer makes a large crop he is led into all sorts of extrava gance? if his crop fails he is plung-d into debt and despair. Tbe sure though moderate return is. as we have said, the best in moral.* and in money matters. In medio tntissin.n?? the middle course is safe.it. Exhibition and IMc-NIo of the Pine CJrore Academy. . Ou Wednesday last, 25th instant, we had the pleasure, by special i ivitstion. of attending the exhibition and Pic Nie at Tine Grove Academy, in School District No. 10, Orange Township. This school was reopened on 2d Da cember lait by .Mr. William G. Tyson, and, with tbe exception of a week', adjournment at Christmas, has been iu regular session erer since, the average daily attendance at no time being less than twenty, a fact reflecting much credit upon the intelligence of the neighborhood. The morning was hot and cl ?udlcsv No pleasant zephyr .itigited the fisrea neas of the sun'.-* rays. Cmbrellas, p*ra sols and fans were at a premium, and all douhis, had any existed, that the Sum mer solstice had fairly *et in, were entirely dissipated. At an early hour a stream of conveyances flowed out of Orangeburg on the Belleville Road, bound for tbe Tie Nio. The advocate laid aside the "code," the merchant forsook the counter, the clerk hurried into his holiday attire, all apparently well content to seek the rooded shades of the country for a day's recreation. On gaining the school home we found a large crowd from the country already assembled, and the tall pines sad pleas ant green oaks of the rural spot wavel over as pleasant a sylvan scene as we have witnessed in many a day. The school house, decorated with the green est of grren vines entwined around the posts and festooned beneath the eaves of tbe piaiza, bong with wreaths of fir bespangled with flowers, and draped with white curtains, attracted much pleasant criticism, and proclaimed the good taste and commendsble desire to please of tbe young ladies of the school; while tbe neatness of the surrounding arrangements were equally to the credit of tbe beys. At 10 A. M. Mr. Tyson came to the front of the stage, announced tbe com mencemcnt of tbe exercises, and read a letter received by him from Hon. J. K Jillson, State Superintendent of Kduca tioo, expressing regret at bis inability in attend in consequence of a prior en gagement else where.

Speeches were then ra-ide by Jacob Summers, Boss Ric'.cnbacker, John Till aud John U m?r. The performances were very good, the parts well memorized, and each recitation and address gaTs evident pleasure and satisfaction. The speeches were listened to with much attention, Master John Ulmer, in the lust one, making a visibl-j impressieu. The morning's exerciser closed by rn able address by I?avid R. Jamison F.sq , of Orangeburg, prepared for the occasion at the particular request of Mr. Tyson. The extrem heat of the room pre vented its receiving the full attention it merited and impelled the speakor to abbreviate his remarks. At 1 P. M. the tables were spread with a collation, which in quantity and quality w-uld hare made the mouth ot a gourmand water. The repast was interrupted somewhat by a heavy thunder shower, but not before the "inner man" of mos* of those present had Liren amply for*ia-.il. In the afternoon addresses by Mai colin I. Bro^vniug, Esq., Hugo ?. Shcri dan, Esq., and Judge A. B. Knowhon. closed the proceedings of a pleasint and agreeable day. A Oirl who over Saw a Young Han. An old man who lire*) near St. Hele na, California, in a wild solitude, has a very pretty daughter, aged 19, who haJ probably never seuu a young man till her father took her to Sao Francisco the other day to see the town. She was dressed up prettily, for the first time in her life, and her silks and ribbons aud the gay sights almost turned bcr head. But what most interested her was that hitherto unknown being?tbe young I man. Every time she saw one she would fix her eyes earnestly on him aud she actu ally made several attempts to getaway from the old man that she might culti vate the acquaintance of these young gentlemen, so that he finally caught her ai d led her by tbe hand. After he got on the boat for Vallcto, on the home ward trip, he felt pretty safe and conclu ded to tuke a drink. He took several and in his absence tbe daughter made the acquaintance of two sprightly young men on the boat, and she was so fascina ted with male society that ihe made arrangements to forsako her old father and go ftith theto. She successfully gave her father tbe slip when they left the boat for tbe oars, and the infatuated girl wa* stowed be t ween them in a smokikg car. Bnt her father fsund her and whirled her out of that car in tbe liveliest manner, and kept his hands on her till they reached home. He will not dare expose her to such peril again, and the poor girl is destined to close confinement out of the world of young men unless she runs away.
