A trade is half a man's fortune. Last Words of Jack?"I'll be hanged if I go up on that platform." "Tan don't do that again," said tho pig to the boy who eat his tail off. ? return to the old plan of appren ticing bojs to tradss is being advo cated. T. Nast is registered on tho alphabe tical list of arrival ) at Boston as "Nast f? it A correspondent of a papor having described the Ohio as 'a sickly stream ,' the editor appended the remark: "That's so?it Is confined to its bed." A Westorn paper has an article on the care of idiots." A contemporary says that paper is always dragging fumily iffaire before tho publio. A citizen of Rouscviile, P., boasts that his village can beat Boston out of sight on crooked streets, and thon have crooks enough loft over to start another town. The abolition of the national banking saystera, nnd tho substitution of tree hanking, with nothing but legal-tender circulation, is now attracting some atten tion. k An Iowa pajer proclaims itself an '?honest newspapor," and in another paragraph says: "When a man pro fesses honesty nows-days, keep your ?ye peeled for a thief." A Parisian, whose wife lately died, imagined himself transformed into a weeping willow, and went about the streets of Paris with a flower pot on his head to announce his transformation. Tho Louisville Courier-Journal says that "a Tennessee editor, who has boen drinking Cincinnati whisky for a month. has written to an Eastern publishing boose for a 'patent inside.'" A Taxas barber who ornamented hi* front door with a white knob is said to have had no peace until the last vestige of it had been shot away by his sprightly neighbors, who made use of it as a targot So witty a compliment is rarely made . as that of Sydney Smith's to his friends, Mrs. Tigho and Mrs. Cuffo : "Ah there you are ! tho cuff that every one would be glad to wear, and the tie that no one would loose." I t> An insurance decision in Richmond into the effect that a Northern company . fiat Habke for the amount of premiums paid before the war on policies which lapsed during the war, if the companies refused application for renewal alter tins war closed. J' Tho peoplo of Providence are highly incensed at the discovery of an old English Gar.eteer, published in 1776, wbioh describes Bristol aa a town in Now ?logUad "having a commodious harbor, at the eutranco of which lies Rhode Island." Grecnsburg wants a directory. It is a nightly occurrence that many of her citizens cannot find the way to their homes. It will requires peculiardirec tory to elucidate the intricacies of the streets of the town on such occasions, however. The host of young men in every large city who apply for employment aud fail to get it for the reason that they are not' educated or specially fitted for any particular business constitutes a potent ergument in favor of reform. Under the apprentice system wo should have fewer ignorant mechanics and incompu tent business men. . A young grass widow, nged 25 years, and ox-spouse of four living husbands, is about to harvest her fifth hay crop in Salt Lake City. Her first husband was a Yankee, her second an Italian, her third a Swiss, her fourth a German, and her prospective fifth is a Polauder. Tho The ' widow's tastes are truly cosraopoli tain, and she scorns ready to take the wortd to her glowing aud cspricious bosom. The Missouri Republican says of the panio : "We may as woll prepare for n second shook at no very distant day, whether it comes or not; a preparation for it will destroy half its force. The preparation needed is a general payment of debts?nothing more, nothing loss ; sod the sooner nil classes of individuals resolutely set about this, the hotter it will be for the country." Nothing on earth can smile but hu man beings. Gems may flash reflected light, but what is a diamond flush compared with an eye flash and mirth fash. A fsoo that cannot smile is like ? bnt that cannot blossom, and diies upon the stalk. Laughter is day, and sobriety is night, and a smile is the twi ? light that . hovers gently between both, and more bewitching that either. There is a boy in Minnesota who has greatly puzzled the neighboring wild ducks. Ho puts s hollow pumpkin over |iis head sod wsdes into the poods . which tho dunks frequent. Presently those unsuspecting birds perceive a floating pumpkin, and with quacks of joy prppecd to dig out the seed", What tho ducks who view the scene from a distance cannot understand is tho singu lar way |n whioh those who are iuTesth gating the pumpkin suddenly dire aud Derer corao to the surface again. The pumpkin also re-appears day after day in an undiminished state. The boy thinks that, unless the ducks grew tired of investigating- the matter, bo will be ablo to retire from businoss in a few weeks more, and devote his lifo to the peaceful pursuit of marbles and mumblo Peg CoFFRl Qkowinu.? Do you drink OoflVe? 1 hen you may want to know how it grows. You see only coffee hoc d in tho store; and, likely, havo never thought much about it ; liko tho city girl, who though cucumbers grew iu slices, just as she saw them en the fa rm er's table. Coffee comes from South America and the Wcstlndics. It. grows upon low, bushy trees. These woul 1 grow tall like peach-trees, but are clipped at the top to make the fruit hardy. Like tho orango tree they have blossom and ripe fruit on at (he same time. Tho bios soms nrc white; the berries are groan, rod and purple, according to their age. It's out.-idj is much like the cborrv?swoct and good. The leaves are a bright, fresh, green; and the tree in lovely. THE ORANGEBURG NEWS AUGUSTUS B. KNOWLTON, EDITOR. GEORGE BOIJVEK, Financial asp Fisinkss Maxaopr. Ofllciul Paper of the Ntate und ?rOrungcbiii'K County. 5?r THE ORANGEBURG NEWS HAS A LARGER CIRCULATION THAN ANY OTHER PAPER IN THE COUN TY.

There seems to have gone abroad says the Columbia Union. IfernUl a mistaken idea as to when the annual fair occurs. \Yc have been requested to stato that ? he same commences on Tuesday, the 1 1th of November, aud eloscs on l'\id.iy, the 15th. Much inconvenience to pers ins living nt j distance has already ncourel on ac count of this mistake iu dates. As an instance, wc mention the fact that a cent 1 o: 11 in with a fiuo Ii t-e Ii as arrive! hero from Roloigb, North Carolina, who states that he was under the impression that the fair commciic-'d on the 4th of November, an d that a number of Rai cigb peup'e, iuteuding to visit the fair think )ike?ir..-, and are making their cah-ulution* accordingly It-m^niber the fair is tt be held on the 11th, 15th. 13th, Uth uu.l 15. TIic liomltigc of American Wo men. The liberty American women have before marriage in sharp contrast to th.> bondage succeeding it. Foreigners are as much startled by one as ihoy ara sur prised by the other. They think we fail to shield in time of peril, .in I re sr bulwarks in front of secu.iry. They cannot itnderslind how hose nstring, sagacious and -el! helpful, iu an u igaur ded state, should require vigilance and real rieti u w'.iou poa>e**od of added know!.: Ige, higher responsibilities, and legal protectors. The freedom of our wedded women should be ->s broad and full as that of the utweded. Domesticity should regulate itself. Tho c<rd of loynlty. binding love can not be ttrcteh cd very far without breaking ; and when it breaks, luve is released. A man and woman are married to each olhot, not to all their acquaintances au 1 ev.?ry cu rinus gos?ip. It iu fair to presume that they know wh it they wisU>, and that they can arrange their afluirs without iutei mediation. The liberty they ar.; generally willing to give the one to the other they are re strained from giving by tho question of appearances. From this deferenco to the society they secretly despise they insure mutual weuriness an^ dissonance, aud forego likewise tho sat isfaotion and mi vane.-merit tboy might have, gained by taking more personal nnl .spiritual latitude Reside the nuptial ?La r too often yawns tho tomb of woman's pro gress, and, strangely and sadly enough, she assists at it* burial without protest or complaint. Tue Ih sK.vM?.?Ladies sometimes do not value their husbands aa they ought. They not nnfrequently learn the value of a good husband for the find tiru by the loss of him. Yet the hus band is the very roof tree of the hou?e ?tho ewrnrnvalnno uf {\\Q fdifioc?tho key-stone called home, lie ?? ilpa braatj winner of the fnroily-^itstjufoqse and its glory?the beginning and the ending of the golden ohaiq of life wb/toh sur rounds jt?-Ua controller, law-giver and its king. Yet, we say, how frail ;is that life on which so much dopende ! How frail is the life of the husband and lathor 1 When he is taken away, who shall fill his place? When he is sick, what gloomy clouds hover over the house 1 When he is desd, what dark new, weeping, agony! The poverty, like tho murderous assassin, breaks in the window?starvation, like a famish ing wolf, howls at tho door. Widow hood is often in associate of sackcloth and ashes. Orphanhood too ofteu means desolation and woe. Creole Women. The Creole woman is prettier than the French woman. There is a climatic in fluence iu America which refiuos features and gives delicacy to tho complexion. This is especially tho case in Louisiana, where finely formed woraon are often found to bo the descendants of ignoble looking ancestors. The light olive ti nt of the woman seems to have been paint ed over a ground color of blushing lako , aud this pinkish creatniness of the skin saves it from dullness and sallowness. In a word, there is something of that transpareoy for which painters aro always seeking. She inherits from her mother over the sea the physical characteristics of round limbs and delicate extremities, with a figure something slighter?another effect of climate, also that sense of art with which the people ara born, but can never entirely acquire. From the same source come her coquetry nnd her grace of speech aud action, but moditicd. She docs not wear crude colors or awry shapes; nor does she oxpress herself with unseemly gesture or discordant toues. Her dress is rather sombre than gay, and her carriage simple aud conven tional?for they all walk alike. Smooth ness and graceful propriety archers. In a word thero is au absence of angles in her general conduct.? Galajry. Fashions. The fashionable umbrella Uuow more attenuated than evor. Ladies, hats this season consists chiefly of two bows of ri bbon aud a stiff oBtrich feather. The Elizabethan ruffs are assuming proportions more ponderous andawo-iu spiiing than ever. Cameos hnvc gone out of fashion for jewelry, having been succeeded by en taglios?antique, if possible. It is fashionable uow to have all tho maid servants in tho housohold. to wear aap?, ?fter the English style. Ladies just from Europe wear their hair very plain aud low on the neck?a style all tbu tage in Paris. Fringes arc to bo very fashionable as trimmings this wiuter. Some of the handsomer sorts are as expensive as fine laces. The war against gilt and imitation jcwelery continues furiously. As a re sult, very little of it is woru by would be fashionable ladies. Peacock blue is the new color for sashes, which are worn of the widest kind of ribbon, and with long euds down to the skirt of the dress. Peacock blue is very soft and beautiful shade. NOTICE.
