Humorous apartment. - LEGAL ADTICE. A gentleman ordered a suit of clothes from a tailor, and specially enjoined him that they must be made by the next Tuesday, and must be made in the finest style, and that unless the tailor could have them ready to a certainty beyond a peradventure to the day, that he must not undertake them; but Snip promised faithfully that they woi'M be fiu'shea. Tuesday came and no clothes ; the enraged man flew to the cabbage man's house and said: "What's the reason my clothes are not ready as you promised? Here you have kept me in the city at a loss of time and business only to disappoint me; now, if we had you in our part of the country, I tell you what they would call you : they would say you were a perfect squirt." The- humble Jcnight of the goose explained that the only competent workman that he had, capable of making the suit, had a wife lying at death's door, and he could not possibly leave her. The outraged gentleman was not able to smother his disappointment, and berated the tailor pretty soundly for foiling in his Dositive Dromise. The ninth fraction of the "genus homo" could not stand this, and plainly told his customer to go to the caloric regions of Pandemonium. The customer, red with rage, rushed across the street to a lawyer, and in an excited and hurried manner, said: . "Do you know Snip, the tailor, across the wayf' "Yes, I know him," answered Brief. "Well, now, I want your advice," said the gentleman-: "I want to know what you would do in such a case. The old stitch louse has kept me here in the city on expense, to the great detriment of my business, and disappointed me in a suit of clothes; but when I went to remonstrate with the fellow about it, what do you suppose he said to me ? He told me to go to . With these words he laid down a ten dollar bill on the desk, and said, "Now sir, what would you do ?" "Do you mean this for a retainer ?" asked Brief. "I do," was the reply. "Then," said Brief, quietly folding up the ten and putting it into his pocket, "he told you to go to- .

After being courteously received the negrees pulled from her pocket a long pipe and commenced smoking soue very "Union" tobacco, to the indefnite disgust of her host. The man maintained his composure several minutes, but the fumes and smoke became too poweful for him, and rising from his chair he said: "Aunt Chloe, do you think you are a Christian!" . "Yes, brudder,.I specks I is.", "Do you~believe in the Bible, auu't?" , "Yes, brudder."

"The clerk aid so, announcing its weight, which did not amount to as much as the miser judged, it would from its size.- Thinking the clerk'had made a mistake, he said eager-. lj "I'll take it all." The piece was wrapped up, and the miser departed. Shortly afterward the purchaser re-entered the store. The attentive clerk immediately asked? "Any thing more I can do for you, Mr.? ?" "Yes, sir," replied the miser; "that cake of wax, I bought of you, on cutting it in twq* I found to be perfectly hollow, ana have come back to see whether you would make any allowance on that account." "Yes, sir," replied the clerk, "if you will just apprise me of the weight of the hole ! I will willingly knock it off the price." The-miser left, amidst a general titter, for the store happened to be full, and he has not since been seen in that locality. A Snake Story.?"During the late war," said one of a party of non-commissioned officers, "I was in the Union army. One day I shouldered my gun and went in search of game. In passing through a 'swamp I saw something a few met ahead of me lying upon the ground which had the appearance of a log, it being some forty feet in length and about a foot in diameter. So positive was I that it was nothing but a log that I paid no attention to it; the fact is, I would have sworn before a court of justice that it was a log and nothing else. You see, I never heard of snakes growing to such huge dimensions?and the fact is I never should have believed it if I \ had. We1*, between me and the log, as I took it to be, was a miry place, which it was necessary for me to avoid. I therefore placed the butt of my gun on the ground before me, and springing upon it, lit right on the top nf what ttu you. suuuiAic m "A boa-constilctor," said one.

So he crept softly out of bed, and with nothing on but his shirt, sneak. ed up stairs and got out on the roof. Mr. Hotchkiss dropped nineteen bricks down the' chimney, each one witn a vigorous siam, uui his wife never screamed a solitary time. So then Mr. Hotchkiss gave it up, and thought he would go down stairs; but he found that Mrs. Hotchkiss had had her head out of the trap-door watching him all the time, and when he had finished she had shut the trap and fastened in on the inside. It may be as well to state that Mr. Hotchkiss spent the rest of the night sitting on the sharp peak of the roof, with his trailing garments of the night fluttering in the evening breeze, singing "I m Lonely To-Night" Mrs. Hotchkiss intimated to her confidential friends that she thought she had him.?Newark Courier.

The first and main step toward obtaining a competency of ten, twenty, or fifty thousand dollars, is the securing of one thousand'; the chief difficulty in getting the one thousand is in obtaining the first hundred and keeping it < Hackneyed as this may appear, it is a fact that is eY&r new, and one that ever needs to be drrmnfed into the ears of the struggling millions who* Work hard and look with straining vision, bdt in vain, for the coming of plentiful (fays- And especially does this home- : ly philosophy of wealth need to be emphasized : at the present time, and impressed upon the ii young men of th;s generation, since the prevalent tendency, now more than ever before, is i for beginners in married or business life to i adopt such a scale of personal and family expenditure as must render thrift impossible. The youth of our time seem likely to forget that easy circumstances in middle or mature age are, as a rule, only to be purchased at the cost of rigid self-denial in earlier years. The son and daughter are ambitious to beg;n in life where tueii parents lefj. off?in other words they wish to reap where they have not .sown, or before they have sown, and the result is, lives of makeshift anxiety and failure. Most of those who are really industrious, and find themselves at the noon of life with only *?*?? /loilw oflfnrta hef.ween their families and want, coufd have been in more comfortable circumstances, had they early learned the lesson that the key to a competency lies in the practice of rigid "economy at the outset of He who doeCnot begin to save wfen be commences i:fw$b* himself will rarely* begro at all, for whei^not even the nuclei's of a modest fortune has been early acquired, family expenses will, aileron time, grow as fast as the income, end the two keep abreast ever afterward. Some of the ways in which even a sm^ll, sura, actually saved and put aside in early life, sei /es as a stepping stone to future competence, are these : The sav:ng gives the young man the reputation among his neighbors and business assq? ciates of being careful, frugal and prosperous. It gives him what is called a good business credit, it is accepted as an index of his business character, and instead of his'being forced to seek employment, opportunities seek him. Besides, h;s little ready capital enables him to take advantage of business openings which, if wholly empty-hended, he could not aspire to. It enables him soon to become his own employer?a most important consideration. Money begets money. Capital has a natural tendencv to increase itself and a very little capital -n the hands of a judicious person^ and combined with the' labor of strong and skillful hands, is a vast help. The d?y laborer or the mechanic who has a few hundred dollars :n the bank, or invested in a good interest-bearing security, is a capitah'st as well as a working-man/ and is prepared to reap the advantages of h;* double capacity. But ma<oly, the>sa\Ing and keeping of the first hundred or the first thousand dollars is the kev to future success, from the fact that it bui'ds up busmeesuoharacter; it compels the formation of halimfpf economy, and fixes them for life; it puts tfe young worker on the rigiiL roau; uixusiuma mw vu &pwmg v-v v. debt, drills him ;n the homely science of keeping h;s financial matters snng, and builds up a-granite determination to force expenses below income.?N. E. Homestead. Laid and Labor.?There are hundreds of thousands of acres of good land in South Carolina which have hardly a market value. The fences are rotting, the fields are choking up with weeds, scrub oaks or pines are taking the place of the fleecy cotton or golden coin. There is no demand for these lanaj^andthey cannot be worked because we havenOt the laborers, or, perhaps, the ready money'for wages and supplies. Land is the' one thing that we have in abundance. Labor is the * only thing that will make our land valuable. Land, then, of which we have too much, must be made to procure labor, of which we ti^e not enough. The value of land is in oportion to the population. A s population creases the land rises ;n price, and it is not too much to say that to double the white laboring population of South Carolina would be to trebble or quadruple the value of the 1 land. This will hapHy be denied, and the 1 whole proposition jfmteee itself foto this: A re the people wilgive away to actual 1 white settlers a porottrof their lands, hav'ng the certainty that the fenwpder will, in a year or two, be worth more :n actual money than the whole tract is worth now1? Charleston Daily Neiosjt Remedy for Rust in Wheats?A distinguished German agriculturist, publishes in < a Bremen paper the following reowdfor prevent'')g rust in wheat. Its value may be "Some hours, at the longest Six or eight, be- 1 fore sow'ng, prepare a steep of three nieas- , ures of powdered quick-l'*ne and ten measures of cattle ujiife Pour two quarts of this upon a peck wheat, stir with a spade until 1 1 !_ --j ; every Kernel is uuvorou nuw mm n. using wheat so prepared, rust of every kind will be avoided.

It is 8:mply a tarred rope, one and a half inches in diameter, and five or six feet long, the end " that it is intended to go down the throat is trimmed off and wound with a piece of cotton cloth and smeared with soft grease before 1 using.

He says: "Let any one who has an attack of lockjaw take a small quantity of turpentine, warm it and pour it on the wound, n?.tnatter where the wound is or what its nature, and relief will follow in less than one miuute. Nothing better can be applied to a severe cut or bru'se than cold turpentine. It will give certain relief almost instantly. Turpentine is also a 1 sovereign remedy for croup. Saturate a piece of flannel with it, and place the flannel on the throat and chest, and in a very severe case 3 to 5 drops may be taken mwardly." Beef Instead of Pork.?When the South sees its way clear to keeping large herds of cattle on every plantation, the hog may lose its nost of honor in Southern civilization. Bee? will be found as cheap and much more wholesome. Pork is too oily food for general 1 use in a warm climate, and assists in produc- 1 ing many of those fearful epidemic diseases 1 which so often decimate the population of; some districts. t&? As Dr. Dwight once passed through a region of very poor land, he said to a farmer : j "Sir, I perceive your land is not veir pro- i ductive." "No, sir," said the honest farmer, "our land is just like self-righteousness." "Ah, how is that f* "Why, the more a man j has of it, the poorer he is." ! 5 I?* Many English farmers feed no hay to their work horses; but keep them in high i working order with straw, roots, and shorts. 1 The equivalent of twelve tons of hay can be I produced on one acre in roots. j Reading Ux the fafebatb. ; CONDUCTED BT I REV.

It can never be too emphatically 0 proclaimed, that infidelity and superstition, 0 n their last analyses, are states of heart. ^ ? The plastic, power of life in the seed en a- ^ bles it to build up the plant out of common materials, imbuing them with its own peculiar ? nature. And of all seeds, the seed of sin in the soul has that gift in most terrific power. ^ He who begun, as a little child, to believe strongly, obstinately, passionately, in the sub- ^ stantial reality and value of earthly things, becomes by an inward law of growth, the 8 fool who hath said:in his heart. "No God"? sf or at least, "No Bible." This life-power of sin in the man gathers e its materials, I say, on every side. The mys- e teries of Providence provoke and stimulate it; that the wicked flourish while the righteous mourn; that crimes are successful and escape Eunishment, while men's good deeds often d aunt them with undeserved humiliations and I ?? ?

So also the discrepauc^flr P Scripture, the inevitable defects in ourr^-, 1 sonings upon, or statements of religious tnlW,' i' the divisions and dissensions of the churches, fa and the repulsiveness to the natural man of f some precious, doctrine: they all are seized a upon by the infidel heart and become its 1 choice and nourishing food. For as infidelity a is a negation, its support must be found in d those things which seem to disprove. 1 But after all; when an evil zeal has co^ec- ? ted all this material and wrought out of it a J great deal more than ever was in it; when a p thousand subtleties have done their worst, a there is.something lacking.

Yet in one y important point, it bears affinity taeveiyJflminous and well digested system of science. It t possesses certain distinctive principles?prin- p ciples peculiarly its own. These principles A may be compared to the pillars of a magnifi- j cent temple. They not only adorn the edifice, tl but are absolutely essential to its support..1 ? Take them away, and the building falls at * once. Nothing remains but a confused collection of fragments; a mass of unsightly v ruiift. p The principles to which we refer, are these: tl the deep and entire depravity df man?the proper divinity of our Saviour?atonement y by his blood, as the only ground of human si hone?renovation of heart by the Holy Spirit, g These principles have sometimes been com- b pared to chain shot. Such is their close and h intimate connection, that if one of them gain a fair admission to the mind, the rest will al- u most unfailingly follow. g For the earliest existence of Christianity, si these doctrines have been received and cher- & ished by the great mass of Christians, as the ta cardinal and distinguishing doctrines of revelation. The fact is obvious and indisputable. f< And hence it follows, by inevitable inference, 1< tha't if the doctrines in view are not the doc- e trines of the Bible, its Author has failed to 1< accomplish his aim. A book designed to re- h claim mankind from error, and establish the y truth, has been the grand instrument of propagating delusion and falsehood through the world. w We admit the fact, that in modern times, tl great numbers of the"professed.believers in the J Bible have entirely orcthyqlccd the doctrines a in question, and even strenuously denied their h existence in the sacred pages. But this tl fact is counterbalanced, and partly explained, o by another fact.- Infidels of various classes 1 have clearly perceived# these doctrines in the n Bible; and on this very account, have turned ti in disgust and hatred from the book itself. a The following anecdote is one among a mul- r titude, which prove that the very doctrines a which by many professed Christians are over- n looked, or denied, or even ridiculed, many c avowed infidels, especially the sagacious and li candid, confess to be clearly instamped on the ii sacrea pages. Lord Bolingbroke, the infidel friend of si Pope, and a man of genius and learning, was tl accustomed to peruse writings on almost all h kinds of subjects. Receiving a visit, one morning, in his study, from an English clergyman, he happened to be reading the works n of Calvin. "You find me rather si ngurlarly a employed," said he; and named the author he e was perusing. The clergyman replied in a h manner which intimated a total disbelief, with n some degree of contempt, of the writings in a question, "You surprise me very much," n said Bolingbroke. "If I believed the Bible, li I should certainly believe the writings of Cal- b vin; for Calvin speaks with the Bible." He b added; "I know I am accounted an infidel; but I confess there occurs to me, at this moment, one argument which Jialf convinces me tl that the Christian religion is true." "What d is that ?" said the clergyman. "Why," re- o: plied Bolingbroke, "that Christianity should fi have continued in the world so long when com- s< mitted to the care of such gentlemen as you." F tl Always the Same.?"I cannot understand tl it," said one friend speaking of another; Mrs. b L seems to live on Mount Pisgah, no matter what occurs, she is always the same." J The words came with a new force, and con- cl ected themselves with the "perfect peace^xgl ne whose mind is stayed on God, of one?:fffio|j dwelling in the secret place of th<jr Most ligh" "abided' under the shadow of -the Al"Ahvay the same!" what astrength of calm eliance lies in. those words. Our life experince teaches that variableness is written upon* 11 things. We tire with finding the fervor ' f friendly zeal to-day chilled by some selfish onsideration to-morrow; with the veering of pinions, shifting for time serving ends; with tie ups and downs in our soufe?the ebb and.1 low of our faith and hope. What a treasure, ana how rare a one, the,' riend to whom these simple yet pregnant rords can be applied. Always to be relied' pon, always ready with unwavering confience to lead us out of our despondencies, ancfi oubts, and questionings, to the rock of our> trength. Is not such steadfast faith worthJ triving for? It is within the reach of all, for ind Jiimuelf has said that "the work of ri?ht- ' ousness shall be peace, and the effect of right" ousness quietness and assurance for ever. 9 X PRIVILEGES OF THE SABBATH. -J The Sabbath is a day when yotrmay ait; own to the Bible without fear of disturbance^ t is the day when, with our sinless progen&j ore, you may make the tour of paradise, and isten to the anthems of a newly created world, t is the day when, according to your various lood, you may mourn with Abraham at Macelah, or meditate with Isaac in the fields of lamre, or go down to Egypt to view JosepS! a all his glory.

And t is the day for public worship, when the glad, >ella say, "Go ye unto the house of the Lord."' md the willing worshiper answers, "Thy face, Lord, will I seek." And it is the day for christian converse; when, coming from the louse of God in company, pious friends take; ounsel one with another; and when underhe quiet roof they read, or go over the ser-j aons, or commune together. And it is thelay for family instruction, when the hymns; re said, and the chapters read, and the truth n Jesus expounded; and when the father ectiouately strives to leave the lessons of hea-; renly wisdom imbedded in filial love; It'ishe day for the Sunday-school, the prayeraeeting, and the visit of- mercy.

In the evening she disked those about her how the trouble came 'about, and they told her that the Prince said -that Victor had given him a blow! "I went feu.. u:? j . ?r W ill? uvujr, ouc aaiu } iiuujicu ttiuiogiuvco, juid when I saw them unbroken, unstained and clean, and tightly fitting, buttoned as I had seen them in the morning, I knew the Prince had lied!" As she said this, she pointed her finger at the Prince, and looked him In the face, but he made no sign. w In a moment this little feminine outburst reminded me of an instance which an old Nevada Judge of the early times gave me as being what ne sparingly called "the most right and snappy ebullition of womanly spunk" that had ever fallen under his notice^^ was sitting here," said tluM^EflN| jfthis old pulpit, holding court^Hj^^^^H prying a big, wick^Mfflfl^HH^^^^H fcgapr killing the awfully lonS|^BHMHB^H| tedious. None tw trial except that nei^^^B^ devil of a Mexican woman?because you know how ?they love and how they hate, and this one had loved her husband with all her might, and now she had boi'ed it a11 down ;nto hate, and stood there spitting it at that Spaniard with her eyes; ana I tell you she would stir me up, too, with a little of her summer lightning occasionally. Well, I had my coat' off and heels up, lolling and sweating, and smoking one of those cabbage cigars the San Francisco people used to think were good enough for us in those times; and the lawyers they all had their coats off and were smoking and whittling, and the witnesses the same, and so was the prisoner. Well, the fact is, there warn't any interest in a murder trial then, because the prisoner was always brought in not guilty, IUO juijr CAUCVWUg U1CU1 bV UV (U 1UUUI Mil them some tame; and, although the evidence was straight and totiare against this Spaniard, we knew we could not convict him without i seeming to be rather-high handed and sort of reflecting on every gentleman in the community ; for there warn t anv carriages and liveries then, a ~d so +'ie omy 'style' there was, to keep your private graveyard. But that woman seemed to have her heart set on hanging that Spaniard; and you'd ought to have aeen how she would glare on him a minute, jpnd then look up at me in her pleading way, Snd then turn?and for the next Ave minutes ^search the jury's faces?and by and by drop her face in her hands for just a little while, *8 if she was most ready to give up; but out she'd come agan directly and be as live and anxious as ever. Eat when the jury announced the verdict, not guilty, and I told the prisoner he was acquitted and free to go, that woman rose up till she appeared to be as tall and grand as a seventy-four gun ship, and says she: ? "Judge, do I understand you to say that this man is not guilty, that murdered my husband without any cause, before my eyes and my little childrens', and that all has been done to him that ever justice and the law can ^smirking Spanish R^Xlike a wildcat.'and out with a *navy,' and Kkotbipi dead in bp<m court"' . ' "That was spirited, I am willing to admit" L ^Wasn't it though," said the Judge, admiringly. "1 wouldn t have missed it for anything. I adjourned court right on the spot and we put.on our coals, and went out and rtp6k up a collection for her and her cubs, and se^t them over the mountains to their friends. Ah, she'waa-a spirited wench!" rrrrTYi rmvarra An ittiht rw/lT i VT? I' 1 HXJ OlJO VI ilJClll LHQliAUlT) l&.If the taking of the censua of the New Engird States had been postponed for a few B/onths, (says the Quiney Herald,) the retorns Egmld not, as they now will, show a decrease ||Ktoopulation. The carpet-baggers of the Rtath ha\ing about ended their mission there, Iflnireparing to return to their homes in New 9K|ind. There is no longer office or politipcaEnfluence in prospect for the Radical carBHHbaggers of the South, who went there Mpubfly from the New England states to avail themselves of the facilities afforded by Fede ral bayonets and the votes of the negroes to achieve power and place and plunder, and ride rougn-shod over the rights of the Southern people. The day that the people of North Carolina voted Radicalism out of house and iioniteKwas a sorry old day for the Radical ^aaqpet-bageers of that State. The certainty that other Southern States will follow the example of North Carolina has thrown the carpetbaggers, scalawags-and robbers into the tnoet-pitiable consternation, and they are preparing by whole battalions to pack up tneir traps and plunder and return to their homes in.' New England, where they feel they will be .able to enjoy better political health for the future. On this subject, the St. Louis Republican says: : 'There is uneasiness in carpet-bag circles in the South. The North Carolina election has had the same effect that a premonitory snap, of cold weather has upon migratory fowls j they are preparing to migrate to more hospitable regions. They can steal and plunder ip North Carolina no longer, and they are alatupd lest they be called to account for the Jgjglijg they have already committed. To esthis responsibility, and to save the illjjbtten plunder they have accumulated through tneTosy reign of Radicaji&m, they are meditating a return tovtbeir distant Northern - Ev-eu- t j^PK them, and if reervatives used this fe'elfag^witBno little effect .to overthrow them. .The efforts of the successful jiarty were directed mainly against these unprincipled intruders, and the result is that while there are more colored members elected toHhe legislature than in 1868, there are fewer white Radicals. Georgia has been graciously accorded the privilege of holding an election this fall, and there is the same disquiet among the carpet-baggers of that State 1 as in North Carolina, for Georgia will do what North Carolina has done, but do it more thoroughly. There will be scarcely a carpet-bagger leu in office after* the election in that State, and the control of its government willbe again in the hands of its substantial citii zens. Virginia rid herself of the curse at the last election, and the condition of her domesI tic aflairs has beeif tranquil ever since. There hope for a similar deb^erance in Alabama, through the quarrels between the white and black wings of the governing party; and even : the case of Sotfth Carolina is not entirely i "hopeless, notwithstanding the silly desertion of i Mr. Orr to thecqwpt Radical party. In- j deed the electionfr-nSsdall promise to sweep this war-bom/pest frorit,a majority of the . Southern States, and release the people, both ' white and black, from the curse of a class of < men who are despised wherever their names are prouounced." ] CONDENSED HISTORY OF STEAM. I About 280 years B. C., Heir, of Alexandria, firmed a toy which exhibited some of the powers of bteam, and was moved by its power. A. D. 450, Athemius, an architect, arrang- . ed several caldrons of water, each covered with the wide bottom of a leather tube, which i rose to a narrow tdp, with pipes extending to the rafters of the adjoining building. A fire was kindled beneath the caldrons, and the house was shaken by the efforts of the steam ascending the tubes. This is the first notice of the power of steam recorded. In 1543, June 17th, Blasco B. Garoy tried a steamboat of 209 tons with tolerable success at Barcelona, Spain. It consisted of a caldron of boiling water, and a moveable wheel (?n each side of the ship. It was laid aside as impracticable. A present, however, was iriade to Garoy. In 1650; the first railroad was constructed at Newcastle-on-TYne. i The first idea of a steam engine in England J was in the Marquis of Winchester's "History i of Inventions," A. D., 1663. In 1710, N'ewcomen made the first steam engine in England. In 1718, patents were granted at Sa7ery for the first application of the steam engine. In 1764, James Watt made the first perfect \ steam engine in England. In 1736, Jonathan Hulls set forth the idea 1 of steam navigation. j In 1778. Thomas Paine DroDosed this ai> plication in America. >. In 1781, Marquis Joufrey constructed one 1 in Saone. In 1785, two Americans published a work on it In 1789, William Tymington made a voy- , age in one on the Fourth, on Clyde Canal. In 1802, this experiment was repeated. j In 1782, Ramsay propelled a boat by steam to New York. In 1783, John Fitch, of Philadelphia, navengine on the DelaH^HBHBpphon first began to ap- j a native of PhilaHB^Rnstructed a locomotive steam en- j ^?to travel on a turnpike road. The first steam vessel that craned the Atlantic was the Savannah, in the month of June, 1819, from Charleston to Liverpool.
