Who knows how all the china breaks That wasn't touched at all? How baby gets so black a bruise, Yet never gets a fall ? Who knows whence all the fashions come, And, when they dissappear, Why one brief month should make a fright Of what was "such a dear?" Who knows little bills can swell To such prodigious size? Who knows, indeed, what's going on Beneath his very eyes ? Who knows just where her husband goes When "business" keeps him out ? Who knows when best to wear a smile, And when to wear a pout ? Who knows the time to face the fact nmt sues no longer young 7 Who knows how best to speak her mind, And how to hold her tongue? Who knows the most convenient day To bring a friend to dine ? Who knows the half of what he spends On clubs, cigars and wine? Who knows one bonnet cannot last A woman half her life ? Who knows the woman is the same When sweetheart turns to wife? Who knows why all the pretty girls Are often last to go ?? How all the ugly women wed Who never nave a beau ? Why small men fancy wives so large, And large men fancy small ? Who knows, in fact, how half the world Was ever matched at all ? Who knows how far to trust a friend? How far to hate a foe ? Just when to speak a kindly "Yes," And when a sturdy "No ?" Who knows ?

One day, not long ago, an old chap fron the interior, accompained by his wife, enterei a Vicksburg dry goods store, and after look ing arouud for a moment he said to the clerk "Pile yer best kaliker down here afore me for Mirandy wants a dress." As the pieces were tumbling down he con tinued: "Mirandy's been purty good this summer and she can have her pick of the best kalike in the store." The old man felt of the different pieces an< his wife tossed them over, and finally thej settled on a particular piece and he said: "Cut her off nine yards o' that." "What! nine yards!" echoed the wife. "That's what I said, Mirandy." "I can't get a kaliker dress with a loop up behind to it out'n no nine yards!" she ex claimed, turning pale with dismay. "Who said anything about loops?" he in quired. "Haven't you always got a kalike] dress out'n nine yards!" ?v?a Knf fKo fucKinn hna nhflniypH. TV( got to have fourteen yards now."' "Have, eh? I'd like to see myself buying fourteen yards!" "Then you won't ?" "Not if I die for it." "You are an old miser!" she hotly ex claimed. "Don't fool with the alligator, Mirandy,' he warned. "Oh, I guess you'd better buy the dress,' put in the clerk, hoping to make peace. "Shan't do it!" growled the man. The woman walked down the store, looked into the back yard, turned and called out: "Come here a minute, William." "What yer want?" he inquired. "Come here, darling. I want to whisper tc you." she continued. He followed her among the boxes. Hei face wore a smile, and he suspected nothing, When he was clear of the door she turned and seized him by the windpipe, rushed him back ward and flopped him over a pile of boxes. "Mirandy, I'll pound blazes out'n you, foi this!" hoarsely whispered the man. i ?? 1-? 1 1_1 1> "\\ illiarn, it aon t lay in your oacaouue: she replied. "Take that," he grasped, trying to kick her He made a heavy struggle, but she clunj to his throat, and flopped him as often as h< partially rose. After realizing the fight wai foul, he faintly inquired : "Mirandy, what's your object?" "A kaliker dress," she promptly responded "Nine yards?" he asked. "Plump fourteen," she responded. "Say twelve, Mirandy." "Staight fourteen and no gouging," she an swered. He made a great effort to throw her off but she banged him down and landed a blov on his nose in addition. "Mirandy," he gasped. "Well, William." "Tell that young man to cut off that kali ker." "That's right, William ; that's purty," sh> said, loosening her grip and extending he hand. "You won't say anything, Mirandy?" "Not a whoop." He scrambled over the back fence, and sh> went in and had the full number of yard cut off When ready to go, the old man was a the door with the mub3, aud s "d: "Mirandy took me by surprise, but its al right; charge that kaliker to my account.' "Vox You Livics ox, Anyways."?A cit izens of Toledo, in the ordinary current o business, became possessor of the note of i Germau saloon-keeper. The note becoraiuj due, he took it to the party and presented i for payment. The man was not prepared ti iiquidate his obligation, aud asked for an ex tension of time. This beiug granted, and th conditions settled properly, he was turning t< leave, when the German said : "Shoost vai von leedle vhiles, unt I gifs you ein glass o goot pier."

Rice has been cultivated in South Carolina for about two hundred years. It was brought {to the State from Madagascar, shortly after j the State was first settled. As an article of food, there is no need that one word be said I about it. With a large proportion of the in| habitants of the State, rice has, from its first j introduction, formed a principal article of food, as well as a Btaple article of export. Notwithstanding this fact, there are multitudes of people in the up country who never saw a stalk of rice growing. Nearly every body in South Carolina eats rice, but only those in the southern section of the State are engaged in raising it. The reason of this is the mistaken notion with regard to the nature of rice. A MAnr. Itn nAiinfrtr nnnnlo rronorfl 11 ir the j iliuuug nit up UUU1I l?i J pwpiv 0WMV* f ? . notiou prevails that rice will grow only in a swamp. A lagoon, aud a rice field with them, means nearly the same thing. This is a mistaken notion. Rice, sufficient for home consumption, can be raised on any farm in the State. It will grow on spots of land that are not fit for scarcely any thing else. The rice, when raised, is said by dear lovers of the article,^ be better than what is kept for sale in the provision stores. Remember, we are not advocating the production of rice as a crop from thesale of which to make money. We advise its production for the sole purpose of saving money. If we can raise rice, we can raise it for home conB sumption cheaper than we can buy it. The Yankee theory is, make and sell every thing you can, and buy as little as possible! This - is orthodox doctrine. There is recuperation in it. The theory of South Carolina is, sell a nothing but cotton and buy every thing else! i This is heterodox doctrine. There is decay - and death in it. +. , Education among Farmers.?It is a fact shown before the British Parliament, that - while the rental of land in Ireland had doubled during the previous hundred years, and that of hmglana treDiea, tne rental or r Scotland had sextupled itself in the same time. Thi9 is attributed mainly to the vastly 1 superior school system which Scotland has j possessed, and the skill and enterprise it has fostered among the people. It is a fact that a truck farmer within a dozen miles of any of our large cities, will get a clean profit of two or three hundred dollars from an acre of land, - while the average old style farmer hardly gets - that amount of profit from his hundred acres or more. These facta are worth studying by - the still large class who do not see the use of agr ricultural papers and teachiug, etc., and think muscle is the main thing in successful farming. J The truck farmer studies his markets, knows what is wanted, learns how to raise it, when \ and where to sell it, believes in manure, buys it, believes in knowing all about his business, takes his paper, reads and thinks, don't kick at facts because they are printed, keeps his - eyes open, and drinks in knowledge from men and books. He keeps learning and succeeds " in his business. There is still a large class of our farming population completely stereo' typed. Many take no agricultural paper, atteud no faire, no farmers' clubs, try no experiments, have no faith in improved tools aud I stock, and are hardly able to tell at the end of the year whether they lose or gain in their business. Success in cultivating the soil is already, and is to "be more and more, dependeut > upou brains. Men who read and think most, plan most wisely, and execute most skilfully, ? will succeed best. We need all the help we . can get from the teachings of science, from I journals, from fairs aud clubs, as well as from . the daily experience of the fields.?American Agriculturist. Watering Horses After Meals.?A ' full drink of water immediately after being fed, should never be allowed to horses. When . water is drank by them, the bulk of it goes ; directly to the large intestines aud little of it J is retained in the stomach. In passing through 3 the stomach, however, the water carries considerable quantities of the contents to where it lodges in the intestines. If, then, the food of . the stomach is washed out before it is digested, no nourishment will be derived from the feed. In Edinburgh, some old horses were fed with split peas, and then given water im mediately before being killed. It was found that the water had carried the peas from fifty to sixty feet into the intestines, where no div gestion took place at all. Mr. Cassie is quite correct in the views set forth regardiug the injurious effects of large quantities of water swallowed immediately after eating. A small quantity of fluid swallowed along with, or immediately after dry food, beneficially softens e it and assists in its division and digestion. r An inordinate supply of water, or of watery fluid, on the other hand, proves injurious. It dilutes unduly the digestive secretions ; it mechanically carries onward the imperfectly die gested food, and thus interferes with the props er functious of the canal, and excites indigestion and diarrhoea. These untoward effects t are especially apt to occur where horses freely fed and too liberally watered, are shortly put 1 to tolerably quick work. There is no more " infallible method of producing colic, diarrhoea, and iuflammatiou of the bowels. The * horse is not peculiar in this effect; dogs, and eveu their roasters, similarly suffer from copift ous draughts of water immediately after eat? ing much solid food. t * Remedy tor Smut in Wheat.?A farmer in Ireland whose wheat was much affected ! by smut succeeded in remedying this evil by t j adopting a simple preventive, which he learnied had been practiced successfully in Flanders for many years The remedy is a steep composed of sixty pounds of quicklime and thirty pounds of salt, made into a solution sufficient to cover 600 pounds of wheat. In order to test this remedy, he procured - .*-J ...1 1 I ..1,1 | ine WOrsi siuuueu wnwn ne uuuiu nuu, auu f I after steeping for different periods, he sowed a i 112 pounds divided into four equal parts on equal portions of laud. t No. 1, merely steeped so as to cleanse it. No. 2, steeped in the solution 12 hours, j No. 3, steeped 24 hours. No. 4, steeped 48 hours, t At reaping the No. 1 was dreadfully black ; No. 2 had a good deal of black in it; No. 3 lf none at all; Nos. 3 and 4 swelled very much |. but did not burst; No. 2 swelled also, but not u so much. Seeing that No. 3, which was steeped for twenty-four hours, succeeded as ; well as No. 4, he has practiced steeping for e ! twenty-four hours, and has continued to do so 11 with perfect success for thirty-two years. He " : has not had the slightest appearance of smut e j in his wheat since he commenced using this i | remedy. After taking the wheat out of the ,t j steep he lets it lie in a heap to drain. In it | broken weather he has kept it for ten days it j after being steeped, turning it every day, I without any bad results. This remedy has also been tried by so many a j in this country, and found successful, that it Q ! is fair to consider it as an established antidote. l*' Live Stock Journal. r. j l-j r. i Kindling Wood.?Now is the time for a j housewives to see to it that there is in store a ! plentiful supply of kindling wood under covj er, so that the fall rains cannot reach it. d | Those who depend upon wood for fuel have ;e i little time enough, if they have not already is attended to the matter, to prepare for the ,; 1 winter's cold so fast coming to us.

ROBERT LATHAN. j [Original.] i BLESS THE LORD. When God blesses us, and we bless God, the j same word is used ; but its import is very dif-: ferent. When God blesses us, he bestows ' # j some good upon us. The blessing of God makes us rich?it makes us happy. When 1 ; God withholds his blessing, we are poor and | j miserable amidst a superabundance of all the j luxuries of the world. All the gold and ail- j I ver and preciourstones in the world can no ; more make us ftch and happy, than the filth ' that clings to our feet. The blessing of God i raiseth the poor out of the dust; the needy out: of the dunghill, and sets him with princes. The I j blessing of God makes the heart rejoice. The | : iiArlinirlnol mkn ronoi troa tllfl KWdintT nf (rOfl. ! | receives something which no words can even I : faintly describe. When God blesses us, he | makes us great and good and happy. The word bless has a very different meaning ! when it is said we bless God. We can neither I add to nor take away from the essential greatj ness of God. Nothing that we can do or say, I can, in the slightest degree, add to either the greatness, the goodness, or the happiness of God. Heis wholly, independent of any and all his creatures. Nothing that any creature can do, can thwart his purposes or disconcert his plans. We can neither detract from his glory by sinning, nor can we add to his empire by rendering homage to bis sovereignty. God reigns over the inhabitants of sin's dark domain, and there is then none that dare say to him why or what doest thou? God is the sovereign proprietor of the universe. His sway is over devils and wicked men, as well as over saints and angels. Hence, when we curse God, we take nothing from him; and when we bless him, we add nothing to him. No creature nor all the creatures in the universe can neither make God greater nor less than he is. The choirs of angels add nothing to the essential greatness or glory of God. When, therefore, we bless God, we only express a desire that God be acknowledged by ourselves and every other creature to be what he is. When the Psalmist said: "Bless the Lord, 0 ray soul," he only gave expression of the pious yearnings of his soul to adore, rev erence and extol God. We may bless God in a variety of ways, but all may be expressed in one siDgle sentence. We bless God by obeying his word, cheerfully and promptly, and by submissively yielding to the providential dealings of God with us. Our whole duty is discharged by obeying God's law. This is all that God asks us to do. "To obey is better than sacrifice, and to hearken than the fat of rams, for rebellion iB as the sin of witchcraft, and stubbornness is as iniquity and idolatry." 1 Sam. 15 : 23. The Bible, in a most minute way, specifies our duty, under all possible circumstances. It matters not where we are, nor what may be our surroundings, we have only prayerfully to consult the Bible, and we will be able to discover what God would have us do. It is plain. No great learning is required to understand its sacred pages. It is minute in all its specihcatious. We never lay it down disappointed. All we have to do to adore the Lord, is to obey the precepts of the Bible. [ The individual who, in his soul, would bless the Lord, says, "0, how I love thy law; thy testimonies have I taken as a heritage forever. [ The law of thy mouth is better to me than thousands of gold and silver. How sweet are thy words unto my taste; yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth." The 119th Psalm is full of the precious estimate which the individual who would blessthe Lord, places upon the Bible. The providential dealings of God with the humau family are often dark and mysterious, but are nevertheless holy, just and good. Disease and death take hold of the young and promising, change their countenances and send them away ; whilst the ungodly sinner I is spared to curse the world until his head is covered with gray hairs. Many a lovely bud is plucked before its rich leaves are unfolded. It dies before it blooms. The infant is snatched from its mother's bosom. This we cannot understand ; but will not the Judge of all the earth do right? This is uot all. The poet uttered a solemn truth when he said, "Man's inhumanity toman, makes countless thousands mourn." Many a wife has had her life made indescribably miserable by the profligate conduct of the man who solemnly pledged to love, cherish and defend her. The thoughts of the trials of such a being 611s the heart with sadness which i cannot be described. The circumstances unJ der which some of the human family are placed, are iuhnitely more distressing than death. In comparison with them, the grim monster loses all his frightful aspects. Under such circumstances, how are we to bless God? We answer, by patiently submitting to the dispensations of Providence. In the day of prosperity, rejoice; but | in the day of adversity, consider. These sore trials spring not from the ground. They , have a legitimate cause. Our duty is to cou; sider. The Psalmist admonishes us "to trust | in the Lord and do good." God is no more I mighty than he is merciful. In the midst of I these sore trials, through which we are called ; to pass, we occupy a very trying position for : poor, weak human nature; but a most favorable position to show the power of God's , right hand to sustain his people. Jacob was i a good man, but he showed his ignorance j when he said "all those thiuga are against " n.jtrift tea a a niiiiiQ mnn hnf. hppvhihi J ted the weakness of human nature when he I said, "I shall one day fall by the hand of | .Saul." With consequences we have nothing to do. It really was noue of David's business j j whether he fell by the hand of Saul or not. God chose hira to accomplish a certain work, and pointed out to him how that work was to j j be performed. David's whole duty consisted j in obeying orders. For this and this alone j he was accountable. i This is the case with us all. Do we desire j 1 to know how we may bless the Lord, we have the desired information when we are told to obey orders. To do this, may clothe us in j "sheep-skins and goat-skins," it may drive us : to "dens and caves in the earth." It may Men anhiect us to death : but we will ulti I mately, if we are faithful uutil the end, be crowned not with perishable laurels, but with a crown of righteousness. "Bless the Lord O I my soul * * bless the Lord ye his angels,! bless the Lord all his works in all places of his dominions, bless the Lord, 0 ray soul," j Psalm 103. B?, The true life begins only when self is : lost sight of?when we devote ourselves to others. This is the most difficult of reforms ; yet is it also the greatest, as it removes the I most formidable obstacle to the spread of, i Christianity. The bigot is a person who thinks for himself and allows you the liberty of agreeing I with him. YORKVILLE ENQUIRER, VOLUME 22.-1870. THE YORKVILLE ENQUIRER, which, on the 1st of January, 1870, will enter upon the Twenty-second volume, is a large, twenty-eight column paper, handsomely printed on clear, legible type, and devoted to the Political, Social, Agricultural and Commercial Interests of the South. In announcing the new volume, we are enabled to promise increased attractions in all the different departments of the paper, conspicuous j among them being the Serial Stories, written j expressly for the Enquirer. As a non-partisan, independent family newspa- j per, the future editorial conduct of the Enquirer , can be as well judged by the pastas by any promise which we might now feel disposed to make. An experience of thirty-five years in the newspaper business?of which time at least one-half has been unremittinglj' devoted to the management of the Enquirer?fully convinces the proprietor that the plan he adopted on assuming control of the paper, is the correct mode of journalism in the nrnwnnt iliiv TIir fruA missinn of the newsnaner i r*vwv V ?? ?? - I r is to place before the public facts as they may exist, unbiased by partisan feelings or sinister motives ; and the propriety of this course is fully attested, not only by tho success of the Enquirer, which can truthfully claim the largest circulation of any country newspaper in the South, but also by many other of the most popular and widely circulated papers of the day. The course thus indicated we shall continue to pursue, aiming to publish a LITERARY ANI) FAMILY NEWSPAPER, which shall be a welcome visitor to the Home Circle, and acceptable alike to all classes of readers. Hence, the news department of the Enquirer, whether of mattersat home or abroad?political or otherwise?will be conducted with the utmost care, and only facts as they seem to exist, will be presented, free from sectional or party bias. LITERARY DEPARTMENT. The original Skriai. Stories for the new volume will possess unusual interest?being from the pens of the most popular serial writers. With the tirst number will be commenced a highly excitingand thrilling storv of California and frontier life, by Mrs. Henry Dkas, entitled PICCIOLA, Which, as a vivid portrayal of life on the Pacific coast, with adventure, crime, temptation and triumph, is one of the most sensational, yet captivating and pleasing stories of Western life yet written. This story will be followed by others throughout the year, of which we can mention the following as now ready: "THE IRON CHEST," a story of domestic life, abounding in mystery and secresy; and a racy, spirited and romantic story entitled "LOST ANI) FOUND; Or, thk White Fawn of tiik Forest." Inaddition to these, other stories of unusual interest will be published during the volume. HISTORICAL SKETCHES. The Historical Sketches of the Early History of South Carolina will constitute an important feature of the volume. These Sketches are written by Rev. Robert Lathan, and commencing with the earliest settlement of the State in colonial times, gradually trace its rise and progress. To the writing and compilation of these Sketches the author has devoted much thought and extensive research. Besides the colonial history, they will contain the stirring scenes and important events, the anecdotes and incidents?legendary and authentic?which have never before been fully published, connected with the Revolutionary history of the State. Much of the material of these Sketches being traditional?many of the events portrayed having never been in print? and written in Mr. Latiian's easy, familiarstyle, they will be read with peculiar satisfaction, not only in our own State, but by every one having a just appreciation of the history of a noble ancestry in their struggle for liberty and independence. CHESTER CORRESPONDENCE. To meet the demands of our increasing circulation in Chester connlv, we have engaged the services of Brainerd McLure, Esq., who will conInlnit. .1 Inltnf r\f ixirrrpunfinfloiwa from C!|-f>stor regularly each week. These letters are devoted entirely to Chester affairs?to the interests of the town and county?and written in the racy and graphic style peculiar to Mr. McLure, they cannot fail to be of interest to our readers in Chester, as well as elsewhere in the State. THE OTHER DEPARTMENTS. In addition to tho above features, Rev. Mr. Lathan will continue his regular contributions to the "Sabbath Reading," and tho "Children's Department," which, under his management for the past six years, have been an important attraction ; and with the usual melange of Miscellaneous Reading adapted to all tastes; the Agricultural Department, containing practical and useful information for the farmorand house-wife; a col umn of Humorous Reading every week ; "Scraps and Facts," embracing light current topics; acompend of the News Abroad and at Home; Correspondence; Commercial and Market Reports; Editorial Articles upon appropriate subjects, intended to promote the prosperity and welfare of our people, we hope to make the Enquirer replete as an entertaining and instructive Family Journal.

In order to meet the requirements of a large class of readers who take no interest in much of the reading matter with which the inside pages of the ENQUIRER are necessarily filled, we have determined to commence the publication, on the first of January, 1876, of a new paper, to be called the FAMILY VISITOR, which, besides containing matter prepared expressly for it, will also be made up from the LITERARY AND MISCELLANEOUS DEPATMENTS OF TIIE ENQUIRER, thus affording a purely Literary and Miscellaneous publication, entirely devoid of local and other matter unadapted to the tastes of the general reader. To accomplish this object, therefore, the FAMILY VISITOR wili contain no matter of a local character, either of the affairs of this or adjoining counties, nor will there be any advertisements of a local nature admitted in its columns. Tt is the proprietor's purpose, by entirely excluolisaci of moiioK f/-v ronrlni* t lin P A MTT.V I uiu^ diJia i-iaaa ut uiabuvi, vu iouuui vuv & ? VISITOR an entertaining, instructive Home Companion in every family throughout the land. THE LITERARY FEATURES. J The same Serial Stories published in the EN"- j QUIRER will lie transferred to the columns of j the FAMILY VISITOR and among other origi- ] nal Stories will be published during the year, i "PICCIOLA," a tale of California and frontier ! life, by MRS. HENRY DEAS; "THE IRON ! CHEST;" "LOST AND FOUND; OR, THE ] WHITE FAWN OF THE FOREST"-stories of j unusual merit and replete with dramatic plot and 1 stirring incident. In addition to the Serial Sto- 1 ries, the FAMILY VISITOR will also contain ; short Talcs and Sketches, completo in the num- | hers containing them. j HISTOHTCALSKETCHESOF SOUTH CARQLIIA.! These admirable Historical Skethes will be published in the FAMILY VISITOR. They are ! written by Rkv. RonKRT Lathan, who has bestowed upon the task much thought and exten- , sive research. Tracing the rise and progress of the State from colonial times, the Sketches will also contain the stirring scenes and important ! events, the anecdotes and incidents?legendary , and authentic?connected with the early history J of the State, and which have never before been , fully published. Much of the material of the Sketches?especially that relative to the middle and upper portions of the State?being traditional, many of the events portrayed having never i been in print, and written in Mr. Lathan's easy, , familiar style, they will be read with peculiar interest by all classes; while no more entertaining or instructive history could be placed in the hands of the youth, or those who would inform them?1 nr?/l Rot'olnfinnarrr c*\?ar\tu lipiHl V>uiwuim auu ato?wiuviw.??.j v v..^* THE OTHER DEPARTMENTS. THE RELIGIOUS DEPARTMENT.?This Department of the FAMILY VISITOR will be conducted by Rev. Mr. Lathan, and in addition to choice selections, will also contain original articles, on appropriate subjects, from his pen ; and while a high moral and religious tone will pervade this Department, nothing shall be admitted of a . sectarian or controversial character. CHILDREN'S DEPARTMENT.?A due portion of tho FAMILY VISITOR will be appropriated for Children and Youth, and their Depart- j ment will be prepared with special care to furnish I innocent amusement, and to inculcate knowledge i and sound moral principles. AGRICULTURAL DEPARTMENT.?The j Farmer's Department will be prepared with spe- ( cial reference to the needs of Agriculture and Hor- ] ticulture in the South, containing only practical t articles on the subjects discussed. 1 HUMOROUS DEPARTMENT.?To this De- 1 partment will be admitted the Wit and Humor of . the day, including Anecdote, Repartee and Sentiment, free from coarseness or inelegancies.
