Scraps, Facts and Fancies. ? A lawyer may be said to belong to the Fee-m&n brotherhood. ???he right man in the right place. A husband at home in the evening. ? He that can keep his temper is bet " ter than ho that can keep-a carriage. ? Never tronblo trouble till trouble troubles you. ? Tho man who can be flattered is not necessarily a fool, but you can always make one of him. -f ? It was the "bowldest" of Fenians who told his sweetheart that "it was him? self that couldn't slape for drameing of her." ? "When may a man be said to break? fast before he gets up? "When betakes a roll in bed. ? ? A Western editor, puffing an express company, says: "Anything intrnsted to its care will go through straight." How about cork-screws ? ? Tho human spirit is like an eagle? the higher it rises from the earth, the more awful is its solitude. ? Meditation on the dead is over salu? tary; there being no touch so purifying as that of a dead man's hand. ' ? From the flower-lips of a lovely wo? man sweet words fly like honey bees, penetrating the heart as with the shafts of love, and filing tho -puncture with honey. ? A young follow onco offered to kiss a Quakeress. "Friend," said she, "thee must not do it." "Oh! by Jove I but I must," said the youth, "Well friend, as thee hast sworn, thee may do it; but thee must not make a practice of it." ? An editor says his attention was first drawn to matrimony by the skillful man? ner in which a pretty girl handled a broom. A brother editor says that the manner in which his wifo handles a broom is not very pleasant. ? Prentice, of the Louisville Journal, makes a wicked lunge at the very under? pinning of society. He says "tilting hoops enable the common pooplo to see a great deal of good socioty than they over saw before." ? An old picture repr esents a king sit? ting in state, with a label, "Igovorn all? a bishop with a legend, "I pray for all"? a soldier with a motto, "I fight for all"? and a farmer, drawing forth reluctantly a purse, with the superscription, "I pay for all." ? In all things, preserve integrity; the consciousness of thy own uprightness will alleviate tho toil of business and soften the harshness of disappointments, and give thee a hum ble confidence before God, when the ingratitude of man or the ini? quity of the times may rob you of the other due reward. ? Neglect no opportunity to sot out an ornament, sbrub or flower about your house. Who over saw a man cross and fretful, when gazing upon a bed of beau? tiful flowers. In their presence, the hardest nature softens. They are great mimanizers?like the touch of the hand of an infant, they make one feel tender and kind. ? The Lawrence vi lie, Illinois, Globe is responsible for tho following: "About seven miles north of this city a couple of our citizens callod at a house for dinner. Just before they took their seats at the table the gontloman of the house and his wife got into a dispute, and to end tin matter he knockod her down with his first. In a moment she took a ehajr and in return knocked him down, and directly after tboy took their seats at the table and eat their dinners together as though nothing had happened." ? A decided impression was made upon the guests at a hotel table at Meridian, Miss., a few days since by a Union soldier, who rose from his seat and kindly waited upon a one-armed Confederate soldier, who could not help himBelf very well. The attention was naturally and deli? cately paid and gratcly roceived. The Meridian Messenger, which relates the in? cident, says: "The spirit of that gray haired Federal soldier would do moro to? wards reconciling Korth and South than any spirit which hag ever invaded the room where the committeo of fifteen uold their sessions and pump all sorts of stories out of all sorts of witnesses. ? A college professor, who had a class of hard fellows, one morning found a horse in the recitation room. Tho class had collected, and with solemn counte? nances awaited the entrance of the pro? fessor. He came in, looked around de? liberately, first upon the horse and then upon the class. Finally he remarked, in a quiet way. "I'm glad it's a horse; there wero jackasses enough before." ? Tom Kirkbain used to tell of a friend of his dropping in about dinnor time on an. old lady who invited him to draw up to the table. There was a huge pilo of the pot order for dinnor. The old lady helped him bountifully, and he being hungry, was doing justice to it. "Stran? ger" said the old lady, "you will find al? most every sort of meat in this pio."? "Yes madam," said he, "and fish too," and he drew from between his lips what he imagined was the back bone of a red h^A^Rsucker.

A Thrilling Adventure at Sea. j In April, 1829,whcn I was a boy of'fiftecn years, apprenticed on board tho Glasgow ship, a large- vessel for thoso days, (eight hundred and fifty tons,) I experienced the first horror of a very oventfiil life, and. its memory has never left mo. I will describe it briefly, but truly, for every word is a fact. We wero chartered by tho British gov? ernment to carry storos, etc., to her p?nal colony in New Zealand; and besides our cargo, had thirteen condemned Malay pi? rates, who had been sentenced to trans? portation for life. They wero in charge of an English naval officer named McFce. They were all ironed hand and foot; be? sides, chained to ringbolts in the deck; and so securely fastened that no one would deem it possible for them to get loose without outside help. Our crew, officors and all, numbered twenty-eight souls, and was nono too large to manage such a heavy craft. We had fine weathor whon wo left tho Clyde, and it stayed with us until we were a'good way South of Gibralter. One af? ternoon, when looking at tho prisoners under his charge, Lioutenant ' McFeo thought he saw something wrong about the irons of ono of them, and ho reported it to Captain Wilson, of our ship, and thought there had better be a close in? spection of thorn. But Captain Wilson was a very easy-going man at all times ; and supper being ready just then, ho re? marked that he guessed all was right, but he'd have a look at thorn in tho morning, for the satisfaction of McFce. Alas! for ; him there was no morning to como. It was*a clear, calm night; tho moon at a full; not enough wind to fill tho can? vass, or give the ship steerage way. An? other boy, of about my own age, and my? self wore aloft, sitting in tho slings of tho fore-yard, talking about homo, whon all at once we heard a rush of foot below us; and looking down on deck, we saw, to our terror, the wholo gang of Malays rushing up from below, free from their irons. They seized capstan-bars, tho cook's axo,iron belaying pins, everything whioh came handy, and rushed at tho men of the watch on dock, striking them down ./ithoat mercy, but making no out? cry. Mr. Bruce, the first mato, was the first victim, and in a few minutes?less time than it takes me tell it?ovory man except tho man at the wheel, lay dead upon the dock, with their brains dashed out, or stabbed to death with their own sheatho-knives. We two boys clambered up into tho top, where wo lay on our faces, as still as death, looking on the horrible scono go? ing on below. Anothor of tho crow, named White, was asleep thoro, but we did not dare to wake him, for fear wo should be discover od or overheard by tho j incarnate fiends below. Captain Wilson, at this time, came out of the cabin, hearing an unusual noise, but was killed in an instant. Tho wretch? es now rushed down into the forecastle, where the labored watch was sleoping, and soon finished thorn. By this time Lioutenant McFee and tho second mate, also the carpentor, who were in tho cabin, found out what was going on; and closing and barricading the cabin door, they got pistols from the arm-chest, and commoncod firing on eve-1 ry pirate they could sec through the cab? in sky-lights. At the first fire, threo of the pirates, being close to thom, foil dead;! and in a minute or two, several moro were badly wounded. The pirates had now killed overy man on deck except tho helmsman at the wheel; and making a gen oral rush at him, they knocked him down and throw him overboard. While they-were doing this, tho party in the cabin shot two moro of them dead, and wounded the chief so badly with a boarding-pike, as ho stood near a sky? light, that his bowels actually gushod out. But he did not give up, but raved terri? bly because ho could not got at thom. As tho ship was in sight of land, they now thought of escape. They hoistod out the pinnace, and put a keg of wator in; and into tho boat all of the survivors, six in number, got, and dropped astern, making for tho land as fast aS they could row. Finding the deck clear of all but tho dead, the party from the cabin camo out, and then we three in the maintop went down. Thoro wo stood, all alive, as we supposod, of twonty-nine souls. But on going into the forecastle, we found two men yet alive, though torribly wounded; and shortly after, a faint hail from for? ward Under tho bows was heard, and thoro wo found tho helmsman who had been thrown overboard, supposed by the pi? rates to bo dead. Ho had only been stunned, and had come to whon he fell into the water; and, swimming forward, had not been seen by tho pirates when they left the ship. We were terribly short-handed now; but we managed to get into Lisbon with the ship, and, while lying there, we had the satisfaction of seeing the pirates who had escaped, brought in by a British man of-war, which had been cruising close in j under the land, and had seen them before they got their convicts' clothes off, or the i iron belt to which their* waist-chains had been fastened. We soon afterward had tho pleasure of: ^^ig^tom all swing at tho yard arm, I for the double crime of murder and pira? cy; and I never enjoyed a sight more, though I have a horror of seeing death by violence, at any time. Many years since. Ovei* almost every known sea, commanded and commanding, have I sailed; but never have I met with an adventure which clings to my memo? ry like that which I have narrated. -*' - Incident at the White House. A friend, recently on a visit to Wash? ington, relates an incident which fell be? neath his notice at a Presidential recep? tion which he had the honor of attending, that is so illustrative of the prompt busi? ness habits and kindly feelings of Androw Johnson, that we are feign to publish it as nearly as ho rolated it as possible. He said: "After arriving in the ante-room of tho Presidential mansion, we had to wait un? til notified to enter the President's room. During the interval my friend and myself noticed a dapper little, sandy-complox ionod, intellectual-looking, nervous man, pacing backward and forward?ever and anon pausing and making notes on a bun? dle of documents?then, passing his hands through his hair, ho would rosumo his march. My friend whispered: "That gontloman soems peculiarly nervous ; somothing of a deep import rosts upon his mind." Just at this momont the ush or throw opon tho door, and wo entered. The President, after blandly receiving and passing tho compliments of tho morn? ing, said: "Gontlomon, pleaso excuse mo, two ladies aro approaching." "We stood back. An eldorly lady approached, ac ! companiod by one much youngor, who, from appearance, might bo her daughter, with an infant in her arms. Tho nervous gontleman approached the President and I said: "Mr. President, this lady's husband is undor sontenco for a crime, which I have hero tho documont to show was not fla? grant as was testified, and that one of the witnesses perjured himself?" "Stop, sir," said Mr. Johnson, "I ro ccivod thoso documents or their contents, two days ago, and have carefully exam inod thom. This lady's husband is par? doned." Tho lady, so ovcrcomo with the feelings whioh wolled up from her heart she was incapable of utterance, was likely to faint. "John," said the President, "seat that lady." Sho took a seat and attempted to speak her thanks, her emotions wero too overpowering for utterance, and the Pres? ident cut her short by saying: "No thanks, madamo?no thanks. I ' havo but dono my duty ; be composod j and retire, for I .have other duties quite as urgent and important as yours." i "As ho turned away," said our infor? mant, "wo observed a toar tricklo down his cheek. No matter what we thought." -<, Home and Mother.?Homo whore fath or and mother, brothers and sisters, havo a unity of interost, sympathy and affec? tion, becomes in mature life tho most sa? cred picturo "That hangs on memory's wall." In after years, when the Destroying An gol has crossed tho housohold, and si? lenced its familiar voioes in their death j when the hand of chafing time has torn down tho woodbines thYt climbed above its portals and its windows, and when its paths echo only to tho tread strangors' j feet, how often doos romembran ^o lead us back to its sacred precincts, and mako us realize that the home of childhood tho brightest spot, the fairest oasis on " the desert of . life. It is during these m'oraonts of retrospection that the religious instruc? tions of youth flow back upon tho soul. It is thon that wo kneol again by tho side of her "Whose breast with gentle billows Hocked to rest our infant woes," and list over the prayers she taught us. Pootry has encircled tho name of "moth? er" with haloes of beauty, but its lan? guage will never be adequate to measure hor influence. To her tho first years of our lives belong, and it is thon in her pow? er to plant seeds of virtue that will bud and blossom in tho soul when ago has plowed its deep furrows in our palo cheeks, or covered our locks with its snows. The prayers of a pious mother aro a price? less legacy: They are like tho dews of heaven, which first ascend from the earth to the skies, and thon descend again to bless and revive the unfolding plant. In? fidelity may array itself against the Bible, and its clamors may bo loud among the assemblies of men, but it has not the courage to onter tho sanctuary of a reli? gious home, and there listen to the oar nest prayers of a holy mother as she points hor children to tho throne of God. -o ? Hope writes the poetry of tho boy, but memory that of the man. Man looks forward with smiles, but backward with sighs. Such is tho wise providence of Heaven. The cup of life is sweeter at tho brim, tho flavor is impaired as we drink doepor, and tho dregs aro mado bitter that wo may not struggle when the cup is taken from our lips. ? Tho Supremo Court of the United States has decided that the trial of civili? ans by military commission is unconstitu? tional. Alas, exclaims tho Louisvillo Journal, tho decision cannot bring back to life tho civilians who havo been tried by such commissions and executod ! It is a sad and awful thought that they wero put to death illegally. An Opinion About Fighting.?"We clip the following from Genoral D. H. Hill's new Magazine, " The Land tee Love :" A general officer riding alone two days after tnc retreat of Burnside, stopped to warm at a fire where a group of Cobb's brigade, which had defended tho stone? wall, was lying down in all the listless nes? of the abandon after a fight. The I officer had on a common soldier's over? coat, and was welcomed as a cavalryman man to tho fireside. A country lad, a farmor boy at home, gave him a graphic description of the fierce assault and the terrible repulse, in his own simple style, ending his narrative with his ingenuous comments upon fighting in genoral. " I havo hearn men say that they were spilin for a fight, but I never did spile for a fight. Stranger, I've been in every fight with my rigiment, but I never did like fighting. But when we was killing them Yankees so purty4)ehind that are wall, and thoy wasn't hurting us, I was rale sorry to see 'om run. And I tell you, Mr. Stuart's man, that was the only time I ever did like fighting." Mr. Stuart's man thankod him for his narrative,mounted and rodo on, reflecting upon certain furious war speeches ho had heard from men whose warlike exploits in tho field had not yot become tho theme of poetry and of song. -o Hidden Treasure Brought to Light. ?Tho Dyersburg, Tennessee, Gazette, of the 26th ult., says : "A short time boforo our civil war throw its lurid light ovor tho land, an un? married man moved from Mississippi to this county and settled a placo a few miles from Dyersburg, and commenced the quiet but prosperous lite of a farmer. When a call was made for troops he abandoned his occupation and enlisted as a soldier in tho Confederate army, and was killed in one of the battles in Missis? sippi. Being almost an entfro stranger in the county, nothing was known of his family or ? affairs. At tho close of tho war, his place .was cultivated by a Mr. Wilson. A short time since, during the cold weather, a negro of Captain Hall's went on tho place to cut a " back log," which ho did. On placing it on the fire he remarked that it was tho heaviest log, for its sizo, ho ever lifted. The fire burn? ed brightly and merrily, and in a short time a stream of yellow lava commenced running on the hearth, which proved to bo melted gold. Wo learn that the gold, all of which was not melted, weighed twenty pounds, and is still in possession of the fortunate finder. It is supposed that tho Mississippian, on entering tho army, stowed his gold away in tho log for safe keeping. -!-o Husband and Wife.?Prosorvo the privacies of your house, your married state, and your hearts, from father, moth? er, brother, sister, and all the world. Bo tween you two let no third person come to share the secret joy or grief that be? longs to yourselves alone. Do you two, with God's help, build your own quiet world?not allowing the dearest earthly fnond to bo tho confident of aught that concorns your domestic peace. Let mo? ments of alienation, if they occur, bo healed and forgotten in after-moments and years of faithful, devoted love; but novcr lot tho wall of another's confidonce bo built up between you and your wife's or husband's heart. Promise this to your? selves, and to each othor. Eeview this vow at every temptation; you will find your account in it: your souls will grow as it wero together, and at last become as one. Ah, if many a young pair had on their wedding-day known this all impor? tant secret, how many marriages would have been happier than, alas, thoy are! -4? ?i A correspondent of tho Kew York Times, writing from Charleston, who seems greatly surprised that the South Carolinians do not love the United States Government, says very naively: "I have not yet found any section in the South where Confederato theories aro venerated more than here, and sometimes tho publicity of such veneration is posi? tively disgusting to^me, as a Northerner. Tho dead soldiors of the South reeeive great attention?not more than tho living, however, for they aro feted and toasted on all occasions. A large amount of charity is required to overlook such ex? cesses, and it is only when assurance is given that men and not principles are ad mirod that we can forgive them." ? Two Irishmen engaged in peddling packages of linen, bought an old mule to aid in carrying the burdens. One would rido awhile, thon the other, carrying the bales of linen on tho mule. One day the Irishman who was on foot got close up to the heels of his mule-ship, when he re? ceived a kick on one of his shins. To be revengod he picked up astoneand hurled it at the mule, but struck his companion on the back of the hoad. Seeing what ho had done, he stopped and began to groan and rub his shin. The one on tho mule turned and asked what was the matter. "The bloody crathur kicked mo," was the reply. "Bejabers he's did the same thing to mc on the back of the head," said tho other. ? The emigration to the West is in? creasing. Tho Fort Kearney Herald of 25th ultimo, says that in two days 162 wagons passed that place, bound for Utah and Oregon. CHARLESTON ADVERTISEMENTS.
