THE DAILY NEWS My Lady. Morocco soft that doth lacl?se Too waite whereon my lady goes, High heels that lift her lipe to mine, And eyelets with a B;lver shine Fall not. malicmant evening dews, Lest yon should wet my lady's shoe?. Oh, purple giape-leaf on her head, In silken benediction spread, With wreaths and ribbons, knotted, curled, The colors ol a magic world Oh weep not. summer rain, upon it, Lest you should soil my lady's bonnet. Oh, nameless art, that makee her slim, Laces in which her shoulders swim, Tho darius graces that coaooine The "Grecian Bend's" delirious line Leaves, shun her as you ne.-tie down, Lest you derange my lady's gown. Complexest wonder of the time, Inspirer of my farvid rhyme. What odds and ends make up the show, The gracious lady that I know ! Contusion bright of ' ex and dress To woo is sweet-but to possess ? "THE CHIVALROUS SOUTHRON'' A. few Kind Words About Him, lay J. W. De Forest, V. S. A., In Harper for January. L-MANHOOD. It seems to mo that the central Irait of the ^chivalrous Southron" is an intense respect for virility. He will forgive almost any vice in a man who is manly ; he will admire vices which are but exaggerations of the masculine. If yon will fight, ii you are strong and skilful enough to kill your antagonist, if yon can govern or influence the common herd, if yon can ride a dangerous hnrse over a rough conn try, if you are a good shot or an expert swordsman, if yom stand by your own opin? ions unflinchingly, if yon do your level best on whiskey, if yon are a devil of a fellow ?with women, if, in short, you show vigorous masculine attributes, he will grant you his re? spect. It may be taken for granted that a people which so highly prize virility looks upon man as the lord of creation, and has the old-fashioned ideas as to what is the proper sphere of woman, lt the high-toned gentleman ccniinuos to be influential at the South, it will bea long time before the "strong minded" ob? tain s .neb. of a footing there, a long tim.9 be? fore they will establish .'r malo suffrage. Next to our supposed passion fi r putting the negro on an equality with the white, there is nothing in Northern bfe so abhorrent to the Southern? ers, of both sexes, as the movement in favor of | woman's rights. D.-GENEROSITY. It was not that Ytnkee generosity whioh sends pundits to convert Hottentots, founds school systems, hospitals, military commis? sions, and endows colleges with millions. It , was the old fashioned sort, the generosity of the Arab and of the feudal noblo. fcediDg every beggar who came to the door, setting bounte? ous tables and keem'ng full wine cellars. It was ibo profusenessnot of philanthropy, but of good fellowship. Even before the war there were ?.ngle States in th ? North which gave molo to missionary, educational and charitaui.. organizations than the entire South. But the Southerner was more than lavish ; he was good natured and easy io bis business transactions ; be had such a contempt for small sums that he would not uso pennies ; be paid loosely at long credits, and was careless in bis collections. m.-oouaxEsr. I shall never forget the grace and kindaess of a man, who must yet be remembered in Charleston as one of its most finished, social ornaments. I was at a supper of tbe Literary Clnb; we were standing or sitting around a table which would have pleased Brill?t Savarin; ali the others were well-known citizens, rever? end and respectable; I was the youngest and only stranger. I hod dropped ont of tbe con? versation and withdrawn a little aside, when Colonel John Alston observed me and divined my stranded situation. He did not know mo; it waa tbe first time tbat weha<i ever met; but he instantly came toward mo and begged leave to wait on me. It was not the deed so much as the manner whioh was so exquisitely ingratiat? ing. There was an empressement in his ex pression which seemed to Bay: ''Sir. your mere appearance fills me with respect and io ter sst; you are obviously worthy of my atten tiona." I have sometimes thought that it would be a fine thing to bea handsome voting lady; and I felt at that moment as if I were one, Well, this hospitable act toward a perfect ?tranger, this courteous advance toward a wall flower, was characteristic of the man. and, in general, of his caste. TV.-HONQB. Notwithstanding his thoughtless lavishness there was a high sense of honor in tbe "chiv? alrous Southron." He did not mean to de? fraud any one. I have known an expensive, generous fMlow to cut his throat because he could not meet a note which was coming due. I; I nave known another bankrupt to put bis | ! wife and children into a buegy, and drive with them into the sea, drowning the''whole pa rty. 1 do not assert positively-I only give it as my strong impression-that such trage? dies of wounded honor were moro common in Dixie than in Yankee land. The honor of Southern students is not college honor as it is understood at th9 North, and perhaps in Europe; it comes mnch nearer to the honor of good ci?zens, and the honor of the gentleman of society. The pnpils are not leagued against I ] tho teachers for the purpose of passing fran- I ? dnlent examinations by the trickeries or steal? ing prepared lists of questions, carrying- fur? tive copies of lessons into the recitation rooms, mutual posting, and purohased compositions. A professor of tbe Charleston Medical Col? lege assures me that be has never detected such a cheat in thirty years of tuition A pro? fessor of the University at Columbia, S. C., told a friend ot mine that he had knoivn but one instance, and that, ia that case, the two cn mi- ] l sals were forced to leave by their classmates. The "chivalrous Southron" undergraduate, at least while surrounded by his native moral atmosphere, considers himself a gentleman first and a student afterward. When ono re? members the strength of college esprit de corps, these facts exhibit an individual self-respect and uprightness which is astonishing, and whioh must, I suspect, fill tho faculties of Yale and Harvard with envy. TOO HT ANT BEAUX. Btv ar?, of the Belles with Admirers Many. A lady contributor to a New York literary paper gets off the following eensible and truth? ful remarks: If by the term "prospects," as applied toa young lady, yon mean the probabilities of ber gettic.r a husband, then she whose admirers may bo called lesion has infinitely poorer prospects than one whose friends of tbe oppo? site sex may be counted on the fingers of a single hand. Now, it is true that everybody patronizes the church and store that everybody else sup Srts, for it is the easiest ani moat natural, ing in the world to "follow the crowd."' But this is not toBav that a young man wants for a wife the girl who counts her beaux by the score and her conquests by the dozen. It is true that every cbickei in a brood will leave a good dinner, and all go in pursuit of the same object if they see ono of thc:r num? ber running away with a large-sized oiumb, or after an imaginary angle-worm. But it is not tiue that a young m.in willforsako the modest, gentle girl, whose society ho can enjoy without rivalry, to complote witL a score of others tor tb9 company ol a young lady whoso suidos aie freo to all. There is, indeed, a class of men who pay as siduous court to the latter. Sbo generally possesses many attractions-this pet of socie? ty. She bas a fine instrument and plays tole? rably. Possibly she sings. Invariably Bhe dances. Pde is alway? surrounded by tue gay? est of the gay, a ad in consequence of all these advantages, whether she bo pretty or plain, her parlor is a very agreeable place in which to spend an evening; or, as our young; men -?ro wont to say.'"it is extremely pleasant to sub? mit one's self occasionally to be handsomely entertained; bur, unless strongly inclined t? flirt, would not upon any account have it sup? posed that he was looking in that direction ter a wife-by no means!'* Thus these gallants are wont to speak. And as a rule, tbey are not marrying men. Bat when one of them would take to himseU a wife, he goes east, or west, or north, or south - anywhere to And a girl unspoiled by sociel.. - one who has not in his presence played the agreeable ;o a score of others, and whom bo strongly suspects any one of them could have had her for the asking. The worst thing for a girl -unless she wants to live and die an old maid, though she might do woree-is to Lave too many beaux.? She may be pretty, stylish, accomplished, grace? ful- anything yon please, it matters little. The very fact tnat she has been the recipient of *' .entions from more men tbau she would I need to know ia the coarse of a lifetime, places her ou the level with & worn-out boot -desirable only to those who cannot get better. If girls would bat take the advice of their own sex as graciously as they take the caress? es of the other, some, at least, would cut loose a few of their worthless acquaintances, and, iu future, guard themselves against the atten? tions of too many beaux. AEEAIES IN THE STATE. Horry. Tbe Sentinel says : "A sample of shingles, made at the shiugle factory of Messrs H. L. Buck k Co., at Tip Top, on the Waccamaw, bas been presented us for inspection. They were sawed from cypress, are six inches in width, and remarkably smooth. We are in? formed that the factory turns out an average of ten thousand shingles per day, which are worth in Northern markets from $7 to $10 per thousand." Darlington. The amount of cotton bought by the mer? chants hero thia year will bo mire than three times as much as any previous year. A correspondent at Florence writes : "There is a grand movement on foot to have the coun? ty seat removed from Darlington Courthouse to this placo, which is supported by some of our best citizens. There is every reason why it should be here; the railroad connections bore are from every part of the county; tele? graph communication is complete; there is a tine hotel near at hand,and the location is per? fectly healthy. To judges, lawyers, and those who have business with the courts, the cbaDge would be most acceptable; and, again, th.-re is no courthouse and jail at Darlington at pres? ent. So tbe change could be made without any additional expense to the State. The site for a courthouse could be bad bere at no cost whatever." Edgefield. We find the following in the Augusta Press : "Within one mile of Gramtcville, S. C., on Sa? turday night last, a most disgraceful assault was made upon an assemblage of persons who were engaged in social festivities. For some unexplained cause, several unknown persons conceived the evil purpose of breaking up the party, the most direct manner of doing which they believed to be in shooting the musicians. This they accom, ,hed, severely wounding in the bowels a Ur. Dinkins, who was acting vio? linist for the occasion. Not content with this fiendish act, they commenced an indiscrimi? nate firing into the assemblage, during which they shot a lady iu the thigh, and inflicted a wound in the' shoulder ot a one-armed man named Prescott. One of the assailants is said to have received a wound in ope of bis legs, al? though not sufficient to result in his capture as yet." AFFUBS IN NSW YOKE.-The sailors of every nationality, to the number of twelve hundred or fifteenVrndred, have struck for thirty dol? lars a month, and resolved that no sailor should leave port under less pay than thirty dollars, and any doing so were promise 1 rough treatment. The men then marched down South-street, cheering ono firm who expressed a willingness to give the advance. An auction sale of tickets for thc opening night ot Booth's now theatre indicates receipts of ten thousand dollars. Five hundred per? sons were present, and competition was lively; one box sold for one hundred and forty dollars; another for one hundred and twenty-two dol? lars, and orchestra chairs ranged from eigbtocn dollars to twenty-five dollars. Th J scats sold average nine dollars each. The job printers struck on Monday foran ad? vance from fifty to Atty-tour cents per one thousand. A mass meeting was held, at which it was reported that all of the principal offices, except the New York Flinting Company, had assented to the arrangement. The printers regard the success of the strike as ali but certain. Gummern?l. Imports.
