It is a strong admonition to male youths, who part their hair in tho middle,-like a woman, to lot their beard ? grow, if t hoy have any, so that they may on all occasions be readily distinguished from the other sex: The ohX proverb that "circumstances alter cases/' had a spicy illustration tho other day at a Bostoi- hotel, ?nd two parties, one froip this city and the other ? of Bos'ton, participated therein. A young man, who is the least bit feminine in his appearance, parting his hair in the mid? dle, etc., went to Boston, and while in that city, was. taken with a severe fit of colic. Stopping at a hotel, he put himself to bed, and sent for a physician. The doctor came, felt of his patient's pulse., examined his stomach, and inquired sol? emnly if4his habits were "regular," to which the young man, somewhat sur? prised, answered in the affirmative. The doctor theH cautiously and politely in 'formed his patient that his symptoms manifested some probabilities of an in? crease of the census in a short time. The surprise of the colic-stricken young man at this singular announcement, was only equalled by that of the doctor when he discovered the true sex of his patient. ?:-*-? . The Abolitionists of Perry county, Tn diana, recently' held a meeting at Tell City, in that county, in which they passed a resolution opposing negro suffrage," and . declaring that negroes must not. come to that county to stay. For the Intelligencer. WHAT IS TO BECOME OF SOLOMON f A PLAIN TALK ON EDUCATION. During some conversation between neighbors A. and B., concerning tho state of affairs generally, and their prospects in particular, A. happened to remark that he would soon have to dispense with the services of his son, and try to get along in his work without the lad; whereupon tho conversation continued after the fol? lowing manner: B.?" And why's that neighbor?" A._" Because tho boy has to go back to school." B __?: "Why, I've just taken my Solomon away from school." A. ?Any fault to find with the teach? er?'; B. ?"No, but I can't spare the lad from work, and schooling is miglity oxpensive in these times." A. ?"So it is; but I should think yow could afford it rather easier than I; you're not so bad off in the world," B. ?"Well, the plain truth of the mat? ter is, money's the main chance in these times?one can't' be respectable without it) and I don't sec the use foi so much education. I've got on very well without it, and I reckon my father did, too, afore me." A. ?"You don't mean to say a person can't be respectable without ? money ? I'm sure you know peoplo in this very copimunity, whom everybody respects, and who are yet poor men; and as for saying- that* money itself makes a man respectable, why, just look at old Jones? he's pretty rich, and yet he's the laughing stock and butt of everybody. I doubt.if he-can hardly writo his own name." B. ?"0. but he's so dcrn'd ignorant." A. ?"Why, that's just it, neighbor. So you do think it's worth having some learn? ing, but it's only about the. amount of it you're doubtful." B. ?""Why, I don't mean to say educa? tion's a had thing, but I don't see no use in a good deal that's crammed into a Loy at school. If he can read, write and cy? pher, I don't see as he wants any moro." ' a.?"Well, neighbor, I'm ti plain man, and havon't had any very first rate edu? cation myself; but I have read and ob? served enough to see thai it is tho educa? ted peoplo who lead society, govern coun? tries, and form public opinion; and if 1 can't leave ?ny boy money, I'll givo^him ?"such an education as will put him oh a footing with any rich man's sons. If he has the education and tho sense, in a free country he may reach the top of the lad? der as well as the best of them. But le; mo ask you a question in a friendly way. What you think enough for your son, you'll, of course, think enough for any other man's. Now, what would be the conscquenco if you brought every man in tho Stato to yoar way of thinking ?" B.?"What do you mean ?" A. ?" I moan?if every man in tho State was to think that what can bo learned at any old-field school was quits enough for his children, and so was to let all Academics and Colloges die out of the land?" B. ?"I don't see but we'd get on very well. I and my father, and a good man y other people you know, have got on very well with mighty littlo learning." A.?5' Yes, but why ? Because you lived in an educated country. You had educatetl men to make laws and govern ; to cany on commerce, to givo you medi? cal and legal assistance, and so forth.. But if the whole Stato was made up of citizens such, as it soe'ms, you are going to make of your Solomon, ? I tell you, neighbor, that in course of a generation We'd not only have no doctors,, but no printers or newspapers, and a Legislature that couldn't write properly their own enactments. It's just bocauso everybody didn't think like you and your father, and those people yotf referred to, that the liko of you have been able to get along with? out education; but I think if you reflect upon it, your own good sense 'will tell you, that if everybody went on your no? tion, tho next generation would be so ig? norant that they could not hand down any education to their children., and so the-State would just keep sinking down to barbarism. No doubt, when our pop? ulation becomes ignorant enough, as there is no moro abolition to bo agitated, we shall have as the next things thrust upon us, negro suffrage 'and amalgamation. And why not?if the world sees that wc arc sinking down in ignorance?" B.?"0, but I woukhrt abolish educa? tion. I reckon there'll always bo people enough to keep up the character of the State." A.?"Not if people go upon tho princi? ple that what is everybody's business is nobody's business, and expect somebody to do what thoy themselves neglect. In this matter, I think everybody ought to put their shoulders to the wheel; and,for my part, I think I should be doing a >vrong to, and defrauding, not only the Stato, but my own flesh and blood, if I did not do all" in my power to givo my son. tho best education that I could. That can't be taken from him, and that's a per? manent capital, whatever may "become of his land or money. And .if, as you say, there'll always be people enough to keep up the' character of the State, I choose that my son shall be one of those people.. And, neighbor, don't take it amiss, if I say, that if you leave-Solomon with thoiamount of reading, writing and. cyphering he now has, as education enough for him, its a hundred chances to one that he 'don't forget half of it in a ?few years?'though there is no moro black shivery?the worst of all slaves, tho slave of ignorance, superstitution and semi-barbarism.

Attest: John T.Sloan, Clerk of Con? vention. Thero is good authority for denying the -statement that General Lee is en? gaged in writing a history of the war. He has had numerous offers from' publishers on both sides of the-Atlantic to do so, but has declined all of them. Correspondence. Columbia, S. C, Sept. 25,1865. Hon. James L. On?Sir : The Consti? tution of this State having been so amen? ded as to givo the election of Governor to the people, and an early day having been appointed for the election, it is desirable that the public attention should be turned to the consideration of a proper person to fill the office.

I have tho honor to be,gentlemen, very respectfully, your obedient servant, JAMES L. ORR. To Messrs. D. L. Wardlaw, T; N. Daw kins, C. W. Dudley, F. J. Moses and others". -+, Tue Influence of Newspapers.?A school teacher, who has been engaged for a long time in his profession, and witness? ed tho influence of a nowspaper upon the minds of a family of childreu, writes as follows: I have found it to be the universal fact without exception, that those scholars of both sexes and of all ages, who have ac? cess to newspapers at home, when com | pared to thoso who have not, are : 1. Better readers, excellent in pronun? ciation, and consequently read more uu derstandingly. . 2; They are better spellers, and define words with ease and accuracy 3. They obtain practical knowledge of geography in almost half tho time it re? quires others, as the newspapor has made them acquainted with the location-of the important places of nations, their govern? ments and doings on tho globe. 4. They are better grammarians, for having become so familiar with every va? riety of style in the newspapers, from the common-place advertisement to the fin? ished and classical oration of tho states? man; they more readily comprehend the meaning of the text, and consequently analyze its construction with accuracy. 5. They write bettor compositions, using better language, containing moro thoughts, moro clearly and moro connect? edly expressed. 6. Those young men who have for year been readers of newspapers, are atways taking the lead in debating societies, ex? hibiting a m?re extonsivo knowledge upon a greater variety of .subjects, and express? ing their views with greater fluency, clears noss and correctness, in the use of lan? guage.^ From, tlu\ Louisville Journal. ] The Duty of Patriots. , Independent support rendered the Pres- J ident will make him independent. This I is the grand reason why liberal men should J sustain him in his earnest efforts to educe j order from chaos, and lasting peace from j the wreck and debris of war. 'Fanatical t men will oppose him because lie is pursu- ? ing a course midway between the two ex- , tremes of violence. If, therefore, the j liberal masses of the conntry do not yield i him their confidence, if they do not cheer him and nerve his arm, he must nccessari- ] ly fall between the opposing factions that | are engaged in making war upon him. But have tho honest, conservative citizons of the United States considered what is involved in the overthrow of the present liberal policy which ho has inaugurated and is endeavoring to carry out? "We think not. It is admitted by almost eve? rybody that that policy is, under all the circumstances of khe case, just, fair and wise; and it is manifest that it is much more generous and magnanimous to the South than the great mass of Southern people expected* It is, we think, in the main satisfactory to tfiera, and such as they are generally willing to corform to. Upon Mr. John? son's platform^ the people of the South will rally and again becomo faithful and honest citizens, of the country. Every good man will readily admit that such a consummation is highly desirable under whatever aspect the subject may be con? templated. Every one wants pcaco and prosperity. The soldiers of. the Repub? lic who have just gone home want to at? tend to their private affairs. They waut no more fighting at presont. Their farms and merchandise, their wives and little ones, havo more charms for them now than tho waving of plumes, tho charge to battle, or tho .shouts of victory. In the South thero are tho wide spread desola? tions, poverty, and sufferings of tho dread? ful conflict. Tho. soldiers there want to repair the wastes and savo what they can from the general wreck. This is the thought uppermost in their minds. How best to do it engrosses their thoughts and. j occupies their time. "Wo arc speaking of the principal facts ami of the majority. In order to save something for themselves, to have rest and educate their children, the people will accept, wo think, in good faith tho free basis, provided they can have their rights in other respects. This, wc under? stand, is what they are willing to do, and this is what, if we do not misread the signs Of the times, tlio liberal majority in tho North are willing (hey should have tho opportunity to accomplish. This, it you please, is a compromise, and a fair one. It is best for the North and the South. It is for the interest of tho North that the South should be again rich and happy, and as speedily as possible. "Wes tern farms and Eastern workshops will soon pour forth as of old their exhaustless producta, and they want for thorn a good markot in the South?which they cannot have tn.crc without quiet, order and law, without civil government and a contented people. ... Artemus Ward on He-organization. ?Arteriitis Ward in a recent letter, gives an idea of re-organization: . ' I havo never attempted to re-organize my wifo but onco. I shall never attempt it again. I'd bin to a public dinner, and had allowed myself to bo betrayed in drinking several people's health, and to make 'em robuskas possible, I continued drinking theiV health until my "own be? came affected. The consequence was I pre , sonted myself at Betsey's bedside, lato at night, with considerable liker concealed about my person. I had somehow got possesshun of a hpsswhip on my way" home. Remembering some cranky obser? vations of Mrs. "Ward's in- tho morning, I snapt the whip pretty IiVely, anil in a loud voico said, "Betsey, you heed re-organiz? ing. I have come, Betsey," I continued ?crackin' tho whip o'erthe bed?" I have come to ro-organizo you V* That nite, I dreamed that somebody laid a hosswhip over mo sov'ril times?and when I woke up I found she had. I hain't drunk much of anything since,- and if I ever have any rc-orgauizen' job on hand, I will let it out. -?- . The Jackson (Miss.) News is favored with a fair correspondent, who begs him to " let that horrid negro suffrage question alone;" and, if he really has the interest of future generations'm view, to consider, rather, what she regards as the great question of the day: " How and whom to marry ?" Misg:: Susan " pertinently asks, " "What's the use of having a Government if there's nobody to govern T" and, rather inconsistently with her request to the edi? tor to abstain from politics, wishes him to take her word for it, that, " if the holy estate of matrimony is not more inti? mately cultivated in this country, we shall lose our balance of power"?which she ought to know is a great thing in political economy. " Do stir up tho Benedicts," she feelingly exclaims, " to a full conside? ration of the great matrimonial question. Not that 2" particularly wish to marry, but I think that this great country ought to go on, and if people won't marry, how can it?" ' ? It is said that tho ex-rebel Vice-Prcsi dent Stephens, now confined at Fort "War- - ren, is soon to be released. jratYBODY SHOULD HAVE A COPY. Internal Reyenue Guide.
