They have suffered for the Master. He hath treasured up each fear ; They .hall reap a golden harvest, Frultage of the sowing here.

Among the visitors who. called on the President on 'Tuesday morning, were I-Ion. J. P. Reed and Hon. W. D. Simpson, of South Carolina, who were presented by the Hon. Thomas L. Jones, of Kentuoky. During the interview Mr. Reed read, for himself and Mr. Simpso.n, the following paper in relation to the condition of affairs in their State: We have called, Mr. President, as members elect from the old Common wealth of South Carolina to the For ty-first Congress of the United States, to tender for ourselves and the people we have been chosen to represent, our congratulations upon your auspicious assumption of the office of Chief Ma gistrate of the American Union. We are, sir, natives of the State from whence we-come, and claim, as repre sentative men of its ancient popula. tion, to be familiar with their politi-. cal and material condition, their son timents and aspirations for the future. Politically, in addition to the loss of nearly all their pecuniary resources they have by the results of the war been practically excluded, for more than three years, from the family of States and the blessings of civil, gov orminent, but having been recehtly re stored to their original position in the Union, upon the plan which the Con gress in its wisdom saw fit to adopt, without concurring in the manner of their restoration, they have necepted the accomplished fact in good faith, and are as loyal to the government of a common country as any other equal number of the American people. Their condition socially is and has been one of profound peace, and aside from a few isolated acts of personal violence that have occasionally been committed in different parts of the State, such as are unfortunately of common occurrence in all sections of the Union, good order has prevailed, and the laws, State and Federal, en abted for their government by bodies in which they were unrepresented, .have been respected, obeyed and en forced, without the slightest tendency to tumult or violence. Materially the abundant harvests that have been vouchsafed to them, and the high prices at which their leading stuples have ruled, have re lieved them in a great measure from their embarrassments, and opened up to their imaginations the dawn of .prosperity, so entirely unexpected as to leave them to hope that events which were deemed the most erushing evils may turn out to have been in deed "blessings in disguise." In Eentiment, whilst almost the en tire native white, and a large number of the colored population, have affili ated and been identified with the na *tional Democratic party, their fetters are not of such controlling strength as to induce or permit a facticious op position to thte party in power, or hin der them from yielding a hearty sup port to all such measures of your ad ministration-as will, in the judgment, tepd to develop e the resources and promote the int.rests ofa common cnTeir hopes and a rtg for the future are, that t e*ir State ' may henceforth occupy precisely the same relations to the government under a common constitution and laws that is occupied by the other States of the Union ; and to this end that the laws imposing burdens and conferring ben efits on the people may be uniformiy enforced, persons and property proe ten,ted, the peace preserved inviolate, the unity and perpetuity of the gov ernment maintained, and that unin terrupted fraternity, prosperity and happiness may attend the whole Amier icanm people, East, West, North and South, without regard to race, color, or previous condition. And such, sir, are the sentiments of the hearts of ourselves and our people. In resp,onse to which, the President remarked': '0entlemen-The senti ments expressed in. that paper should meet the approbation of every law abiding and Uni loving citizen 'of the country."

Not th it least of the problems td be solved wa 3- that of protecting the track from th, d heavy falls of snow which were to b a anticipatea during the wit.ter uouth: - To obviate this difficulty as far e d possible, the comyany dotoruined t t erect a series of sheds, or rather on it building, which should protect th road over the snow line. Accordingly 3, they have erected.a building which i 3- doubtless thoiurgebt in the world, I ,- is twinty-two miles in length, sixtee s- feet in width, and eixteen feet i t. height, not including the pitch of th e. roof. It is put up In the naobt sub - stantial manner, all the timbers use h being of the-best quality to be obtain c- ed. The sides are enclosed, and wer r- it not for the fact that da)light penc 11 trates through the iuteratiues betwee u the boards the whole uff.air would b bo very like a huge tunnel. The build d ing is braced together Inn most pece e liar manner, and is,, in addition, ficml in bolted to the rocks wherever the roa a is near the face of a cliff. Where snoi c- slides are.tq be feared, an extentio 3- of the roof hs been- oarried to th 'n cliffs, so that the falling ieneses shal 11 pass over the building and lodge o h the other side. In many place i- where side tracks are' located, th t. building is wider than the figure given above. More than 40,000,00 1e feet of lumber have been used in it construction. It covers an area c Y more than 1,800,000 squ .re feet, o 3e nearly forty-four acres. One of th te best proofs of the stability of th n structure is in the faot that., with th exception of a few miles which ha " not been really completed, it thor s oughly answered the purpose fe n which it was designed during the re o cent severe storm, in - which it wn ? subjected to the most severe tests. r San Francisco Alta Cul'f ornia, Fe St 25. __ . ..

[Savannah Advertiser, 27Ih. The Parisans display great ingenuity In showing their political opinions with out unpleasant consequences to them selves. On a recent occasion one of the "Conferences" now so much the fashion, was held at the Theatre do l'Ambigu .

There is a society here o that is called the Association for the e Prevebtion of Gambling. Its method t of preventing this vice is to0 keep spies 1on duty at gambling places to get the e names of visitors, and thet, the society communicates with the employers or business partners or other persons inter ested in the honesty of the person, re. 1porting the fact of his visit to such 'places. Now, we have an idea that a society acting.- on these principles is aworse than the vice it fights against. a.The dishonesty that may bo in gambling is but one phase of dishonor; but here h is the whole figure of that mioral horror. e Even with those who believe in the e above society its motive is, perhaps, all e that justifies it.

Goon FIELD FOR ENTERPRIsE.--We have received several communications from correspondents in the Southern States, (says the Boston Commercialt Bulletin,) expressing the great desire of the people to bring into that part of the country capital, from the North, of either money or labor, which will aid in restoring Its prosperity. Those communications are from in telligent men, natives of the Southern States, who accept "the situation" to the extent of going to work them solves to develop the splendid re sources of their section, instead of wasting their time in frothy deolana tion and political disputation, and who purpose to devote their best of forts to thoroughly establish law and order, and to protect to the fullest degree the honost opinions and con victions of all who may conic among them. The splendid water power, cheap. ness of labor, the important advantage in the difference of price of cotton to the Southern manufacturer, the long. er duration of days in winter, and pro lifo yield of fruit and vegetables from the soil are among the advantages to t which attention is called in the States of Tennessee, South Carolina and Georgia. That the Southern States offer a I magnificent opportunity for the sue cossful and profitable development of t manufacturing enterprises there can be no question, and once let the at tention of Northern capitalist and en terprise be turned in that direction and it will go thero.with a rush. BLUFFING AN AUDIENCE. - John Palmer had a very long part in a new play one evening, and was set down in the bills to speak the prologue. Trusting to a quick study, he kept postponing his attention to both until the last moment, and when the cur- 1 tain bell rang, went on for the pro logue without knowing. a word of it. The house was packed, and of course in a terrific uproar, as always at the commencement of a performance. c The indomitable Palmer, amid the confusion, began to move his lips and gesticulate, as if delivering his lines. As nobody heard a syllable, the cries of "Silence," "1Iear the prologue," "Down in front," "Order," redoubled from every quarter. Ho ceased his motions, and with the most graceful dexterity, pretended to be greatly dis turbed by the disorder, and made a token to the gallery as if to indicate that he could not proceed unless that part of the audience became quiet. This stratagem set the pit howling at the supposed offenders in the upper regions, and amid the riotous clamor which ensued, Palmer came forward, moved his lips and gesticulated as be fore, and, just as the Babel was ceas. ing, made his bow and went off. Ife performed his part of the -play with equal success, though be knew no nore of the language in it tlln of the prologue. MEN WAN'IED.-The great want of this age is men. Men who are not for sale. Men who are honest, sound from centre to circumference, true to the heart's core. Men who will con demn wrong in friend or foe, in them selves[as well as others. Men whose consciences aro steady as the needle to the pole. Men who will stand for the right If the heavens totter and the earth reels. Men who can tell thd truth and look the world anid the dev il in the eye. Men that neither brag nor run. Men that neither flag nor flinch. Mcin who can have courage without shouting to it. Men in whom the courage of everlasting life Runs still, deep and strong. Men who do not cry nor cause their voices to be heard on the streets, but who will not fail nor be discouraged till judgment be set in the earth. Men who know their mnessage and tell it. Men wvho know their places and fill them. Men who knowv their own business. Men who will not lie. Men who are not too lazy to work, nor too proud to be poor. Men who are willing to eat what they have earned, and wear what they have paid for. SlPnING FAsuroNs.-ILarge flowers are in vogue for looping up overskirts. The Wautteau drapery still retains its hold on popular favor. Dresses are being made ivith three and four skirts. The round cape will be much worn during the coming season. Parasols are to be en suite. This refers not only to color, but to style. With striped dress, parasol dittd; dress of solid color, parasol ditto. A novelty in the shape of square parasols have made their appearance. Ribbons are coming into favor for trimming bonnets. The pointed color is not s' fash ion able as it was. Bismnark brown and metternich green is no longer the style. One absurdity gone. Boots are no longer made with the French heel. Sa tin flowers will be much used this season. Straw flowers .will be very much used in trimming bonnets. The following soliloquy was over heard the other night upon the Paris Boulevard*.
