Some persons would have us believe that then
have beenin our country, creatures caning themselves
men end tcornea, who were ashamed of honest
toil On the approach of a. neighbor, Young
Master would throw down his hoe, and skulk away
into some hiding plaoe for fear it should be knowi
that he worked ; and pert Kttle Miss would feigt
ignorance of that "horrid" animal, familiarly
known as a cow, lest, in sooth, it might be supposed
that she handled the milk pail. If such creature
as these ever had ia existence among us, it is earnestly
to be hoped, that henceforth, like the Mammoth
or Mastodon, they will be known only in history,
and that every one among us, in creed and in
practice, will recognize the heaven-appointed law,
that labor constitutes the true dignity of man.
The laboring man, whether be be a physical or s
mental laborer, is to society what the root is to the
tree?the life and support of the whole.
By divine precept, by divine example, by the
operations of nature, and by the wants of his own
being, man is exhorted to labor. The same voice
which, from the burning Mount, proclaimed the
rest of the Sabbath, also said, six days thoa shah
labor. Paul, himself a laborer both with mind and
body, earnestly exhorts his Christian brethren to
work. The very first sentence of the Bible reveals
to us that labor is hallowed by the example of the
? - - - ? " ? n ] i.j A.
Deity himself: * in tne oeginmng wxi creaieu uu
heavens and the earth." Nature, too, in all her
manifold operations, teaches the same great lesson
of industry.
"All things are full of labor; man cannot utter
it" From the atoms that dance among the sunbeams,
to the mighty worlds that wheel on their
orbs, everything performs its ceaseless round of
toiL Perpetual change is the law of all created
existence. Each particle of matter is ever on its
pilgrimage of being?now glowing in the flame,
now flowing in the water, now blooming in the
trees, and now blushing in the face of some maiden
fair. In the morning the rising sun, in his shining
coarse, proclaims the great law of labor, and
at night, the moon and all its starry hosts, utter
their voice from Heaven on high, in testimony of the
same great truth. The falling of the leaves, the
flowing of the waters, the blowing of the winds,
with one accord, all, cry in the ears of men?work,
work. Still more emphatically does the animal
^ kingdom, by example, teach the same lesson.
The spider that comes into our houses and spins
its tiny web upon the wall, is a little missionary,
sent to proclaim the gospel of labor to woman. By
* * *? ?- ??i ~i ?J a
example, icexnorts ner w nwi ouu uu uu
to work willingly with her hands," and is a constant
rebuke to those wives and daughters who
lounge in idleness, spending all their time at the
toilette or in reading yellow-hacked novels. Will
the ladies of the South not hearken to the voice of
the little missionary ? Hie busy bee comes and
takes up its abode by the house-side, to instruct
man in the divinity of labor. As day by day it
toilsome roams in quest of sweets to build and
store its home, it says to man "go thou and do'
- likewise." The birds of the air, the fish of the
sea, and the beasts of the fields, all cry shame,
shame upon the idler. The wants of man call to
labor. The clamorous appetite, the unsatisfied desire,
call mightily upon man to shake off the chains
of indoldnce and give himself to honest toil. In
obedience to this call the husbandman, with the
light of the morning, goes forth into the field
where, through all the long and weary day, till
shades of evening thicken round, he toils on in
hope of bread for himself and dear ones. The
mechanic hies to the workshop where, with steadypurpose
through all the livelong day, he lifts the
hammer or shoves the plane. The pale-faced student
binds his troubled thoughts to the search of
truth. His labors stop not with the setting sun;
but his lamp lights many of the stars to bed. The
? labors of the mind and of the body are equally
m honorable, equally toilsome, and equally useful.
To depreciate either the one or the other, argues a
very imperfect knowledge of man's oondition.
Yet it must be confessed that there have been too
many among us, who lightly esteem the humble laborer,
and were disposed, in scorn, to say concerning
him as the Jews said concerning Christ: "Is
not this the carpenter'* son ?'' The man of books
is too apt to look down upon his hard-fisted brother
as engaged in a pursuit of less dignity and importance
than his own; while, on the other hand,
the son of manual labor is apt to look on the bookman
as rather a drone in the hive who produoes
nothing, but sits idly about getting big pay for
resting. Both these conclusions are wrong, and,
if the student would work more with his hands,
and the laborer more with his brains, they would
soon have a better appreciation of each other, and
Vo ucflfiilnooo on/} honninpss rvf hntli he arre&tlv in
creased. To this coarse nature points, for the
constitution of man is not made exclusively for
either mental or physical labor, 9e who studies
all will become sickly, while he who works all will
become stupid. Mere physical labor without the
guidance of intellect can accomplish but little,
while, on the other hand, mental power cannot be
made available without physical strength. In this
life the body and the mind are married to each
other, and must unite in the accomplishment of
eveiything good. Physical force is the ball?mind
is the powder. The powder without the ball may
make a flash, but will do little execution. The
ball without the powder will not go at all.
In Agriculture?the principal manual labor pursuit
in the South?the error, we think, has been
committed of using too much ball and too little
powder; men have failed to recognize mind as a
necessary element in this pursuit As it is, labor
has aocomplished much and we have but to look
around us to see its trophies. The wilderness of
the savage and wild beast has been converted into
the home of civilized man. But let the deserters
from the banner of labor regain their manly spirit,
and rally to their posts?let intellect assist the bone
and muscle in guiding the plan, and then what has
been done in the past will be to our future progress,
as the ripple upon the stream to the wave of
the Ocean. The goodness of the Deity is seen in
that labor, the original curse of sin, is made the
channel through which the richest blessings flow
to the race of man.
Unquestionably, labor has Its pains which he
who has labored only knows. Let such a one recall
his feelings as he wearily followed the plow,
while a hot summer sun was beating upon his
aching head, or remember what were the feelings
in his back after stooping all day between the cot
ton rows. But labor has its pleasures, too, known
only to those who have been initiated into the
school of toil How delightful, when parched
with thirst, and heated with work, so that the
blood goes bounding on its course, and the pearly
drops come trickling down the face, to seek the
kindly shelter of some wide-spreading tree, at
whose foot flows forth the living spring. How
gladly do we repose our wearied limbs upon the
green sward, while gentle zephyrs fan the heated
brow, and cooling waters quench the raging thirst
With what pleasure, too, does the working man eat.
With appetite whetted by- the labors of the day
he sits down to his table, and finds everything
good. The plainest food has, for him, a relish
which all the ingenuity of the epicure cannot secure.
And then the sleeping 1 0, there is a
princely pleasure in the slumbers of a weary man.
Other men may have read that "the sleep of the
laboring man is sweet," but it is only the son of
toil that Jat/ncs it to be so. Nature is munificent
in her gifts to the persevering laborer?crowning
his years with health, and making his old age to
rejoice in the midst of plenty. In Church and in
State, in peace and in war, in science and in literature,
the highest seats are usually awarded to the
men who diligently work in their calling. Within
the sphere of human power labor accomplishes
everything. Without it, nothing valuable can be
done.
Header, believe, if you choose, that the moon is
made of cheese?that every man is honest whc
professes to be so?that republicanism is the best
form of government in the world?bat, pray, dc
not believe that anything great or good can be accomplished
without persevering ton. KBISS.

LIVERPOOL, Oct 12, evening.?Cotton advanced
1-16; sales of 18,000 bales.
CHARLESTON, ^ October 10.?Cotton.?The
downward tendency in prices which has been for
so long a period a feature of the Cotton market
still continues, and the week just closed has been
marked by a character very similar to many of
its predecessors. Prices opened hore on a basis
of 17 cents for Low Middling, 171 to 18 cents for
Middling, and 181 to 181 cents per pound for Strict
Middling, and closed yesterday at 15 to 151 for
Low Middling, 16 for Middling, and 17 cents for
Strict Middling Cotton, showing a decline of about
11 to 2 cents per pound for the week. The demand
has run, to a great degree, for good qualities, and
common grades have been heavy ana holders have
found them difficult to remove. The receipts at
this point begin to exhibit a marked increase, and
have been 34 bales of Sea Island and 5080 bales of
Upland, against 17 bales of Sea Island and 2886
bales pf Upland Cotton the week before, and 210
bales of Sea Island and 2458 bales of Upland Cotton
for the corresponding week last year.
We submit the following report of the transactions
in the staple at this port for the week just
closed:
On Friday, October 4, during the first part of
the day, there was a good demand from buyers,
who operated at about the rates prevailing during
the latter part of the previous day, say 17 cents
for Low Middling, 174 to 18 for Middling, and 181
to 181 cents per pound for Strict Middling; but the
cable having announced that Liverpool was 4d.
lower, say from 84 toSJd., the activity of the market
ceased, and the transactions afterward were,
quite light, at about i to 1 cent decline; but the
operations were not sufficiently extended and
prices too irregular to be quoted reliably?sales
350 bales. *
On Saturday, the demand was light and prices
irregular and lower, the decline in some cases amounting
to 1 cent per pound, the inouiry running
alnrost entirely for the better qualities, sales
265 Dales; Middling closing somewhat nominal at
17 cents, and Strict Middling at 174 to 18 cents por
pound.
On Monday, the demand was ligfit, and the market
dull and lower, the decline amounting from a
half to one cent por pound, the inquiry being restricted
to the better qualities, sales about 100
bales ; Low Middling boing quoted at 154, Middling
at 164 and Strict Middling at 17 cents per
pound.
On Tuesday, the inquiry was light, but the market
was quite firm, sales 170 bales, quotations unchanged,
but in some cases prices were better.
On Wednesday, there was an active demand.
prices being Jqnite firm early in the day, but intelligence
of a decline at Liverpool, caused rates
to become weaker, some transactions taking place
at a decline, sales 500 bales: Low Middling being
quoted at 15}, Middling at 161 and Strfct Middling
at 17 cents per pound.
Yesterday the market was about 1 cent per pound
lower; sales 240 bales, sav 22 at 15, 16 at 151, 20 at
15}, 33 at 16,8 at 16}, 150 at 161,94 at 17. We quote
Liverpool classification, Low Middling 15 to 151,
Middling 16, Strict Middling 17 cents.
Cobn.?There is still an absence of supplies, and
the stock is decreasing. The demand is very limited,
and is restricted mainly to retail sales to
supply the local demand. Small lots of Good to
Primp Corn are selling at $1.55 to $1.65 per bushel
weight, bags included.
Flour.?This article continues to stiffen and
prices of Southern have hardened about 50 cents
per barrel during the week. We note sales of
Southern Super at $12 to $12.50 per barrel ;
Southern Extra at $13 per barrel; and Southern
Family at $14 per barrel. With the advance in the
price of Southern Flour, dealers have imported
to a limited extent of new Northern and Western,
which is selling at $11.50 for Super, and $12.50 per
barrel for Extra.
Bacon.?The stock of meat is light, and with a
moderate demand, holders have generally obtained
full and firm prices. Thepnarket is supplied
with inferior meat, but it sells at rates too irregular
to be quoted. We quote Prime Shoulders at
15} to 16} cents per pound; prime Ribbed Sides
at 18} cents per pound, and prime Clear Ribbed
Sides at 19} to 20 cents per pound.
Salt.?The stock of the article is light and the
enquiry continues moderate. We renew our previous
rates for jobbing lots?say $2.50 to $2.75 per
sack.
India Bagging.?The market, by late arrivals,
continues to be fully supplied with thisarticlo, and
in consequence of tne limited extent to whicli purchasers
confine their operations, the business aone
is quite moderate. We quote sales in large lots at
25 to 25} cents per yard, and in a limited way at
25} to 26 cents per yard, as in quality and size of
lot.
Rope?In consequence of the use of Iron Ties,
the demand for Rope is very light and prices irregular,
and somewhat nominal at quotations.
We quote Hemp at 13 to 14, Greenleat 14 to 15,
and Jute at 12 cents per pound.
