Trust thou, oh I trust in God." That truet shall hallow evor Thy tranquil place of rest. Though h?Rerlng sadness never Leave tho*? thy love has bloat. But oh I 'twill bo that sadness.

Forever bright remain. Then though our heart-strings quiver Beneath tho reaper's breath, Our free-born souls forever, ' Will triumph over death. Then rest, beloved and dearest. Where lingering shades lie deep, Tbough over thee, earth's fairest The pearly dew-drops weep ; We know thy spirit riven Has reached the crystal dome, And all the hosts ol Heaven Murmured thy welcome home. ' ----9 A "PATERNAL" GOVERNMENT. Vite New York Herald ttae Urgan ot* President Grant-A Brilliant Pro? gramme-Cakes and Ale for Every? body-Concerts, Theatre? and Trotting Horses* A Washington lotter to tho Baltimore Ga? zette, says : The Now York Herald is known hero to bo the veritable mouth-piece of General Grant. Tho managing editor, (Bennett, Junior) was hero a few days ugo, and bad long conferences ?with the President. The recent extraordinary articles which have appeared in that journal have, therefore, excited unusual attention. There can be no longer a doubt that the new administration intends, as noon aB Congress adjourns and the epoda aro all divided amor-g the faithful, to strike ont upon a bold and bril? liant programme to capture the populace. 1 he first tiring proposed by the Herald to be dono , is tb convert tho Morse telegraph into a purely national beneficence as an entering wedge; secondly, to improve tho public morals by seizing upon all theatres, concert halls and all otber places of nocturnal amuse? ment, and regulating by national orders not only tho character of tho perform? ances, but tho price of admission, which is to be merely nominal, enabling tbe most bumble (without regard to race or colot ) to become free actors or spectators, as thc case may be. A grand national amphitheatre at the national metropolis, built after tbe manner of the Ro? man, and supported by the public funds, as in France at thia day, may serve as a model for the provinces. The onslaught recently made by tbe special New York organ, and re-echoed by tbe independent proas generally, upon the immoralities of the "Can-can," will serve to drown all outcries about constitutional power. Thirdly. National held sports in open day must not languish for the want of the los toling care of a paternal government. The article in the special organ, in which National Horse Racing is recommended on government account, comes under this head. The suggestions upon ibis item aro so extravagant that I should scarcely be credited without literal quotation from the Herald itself. It says: "Tho establishment of a race course in tho vioinity of Washington, under tbe auspices of the government, and nuder the control of the Agricultural Department, would afford a ready means of restoring the thoroughbred horse to a such a degree of usefulness as would ren? der bim of the highest valuo to the country, . and inaugurate a new era of breeding through? out the land, and do away with all inferior horses as stallions. An appropriation by Con? gress of one hundred thousand dollars a year to the Agricultural Department for the pur? pose of distribution as prizes would be a groat inducement to breeders to outer into active ?ojiviAljtinn for such nrauiiums as might be . According to this plan, the government is to put up the stakes, and the Commissioner of Agricultura is to be the stakeholder, as follows "We might suggest that a prize of ten thous and dollars bo awarded to the winner of the fourmile heat running race, with six thousand to the second horse, three thousand to the third and one thousand to the fourth. The same premium should bo awarded to the trot . ting stallions. This would give two meetings a year-one in the spring, exclusively for the running horse, and the other in the autumn for the trotter." Tho particular mention made of the "trot? ting stallions" and of "the trotter" bas the ear? mark of authority, when we turn back to think of Dexter, and Bonner, and the General. But the public is not left to conjecture up JU SO im? portant a point. The Herald distinctly ?tates, as if empowered, that "an appropriation for the purposes mentioned above would undoubtedly receive the sanction of tho President." AEEAIR8 IN TME STATE. Fairfield. There will be a meeting of the planters of Fairfield District helli at the courthouse in Winnsboro', on Monday, 18th of April, for the purpose of organizing an association and ap? pointing delegates to meet a general conven? tion of planters in Colombia on the 28th inst., and for such other purposes as may have a tendenoy to promote the best interests of the people. YorK. York County will not be represented in the State Agricultural Convention, and the En? quirer deplores the fact. Tbe freight train on the C. and S. C. Rail? road ran over a man by the name of George MoGinnia, on Tuesday afternoon last, about a mile from Fort Mills. He was lying across the track, and the engineer did not discover him in time to stop the train. He lived but a short time after being ron over. Darlington. * A heavy frost occurred on Monday last, which, we think, injured the fruit prospect seriously, and tho early vegetables slightly. Hale-day in?Barlington drew out a small at tondanoe; bW little property sold by the sheriff, and that little bought in by parties holding hens against it. The Darlington Democrat says : "On Satur? day night last, a baud of negroes (Governor Scott's militia) boldly entered the house of " pf Timmons, a widow lady, living near Tim narine, rifled her trunk III her presenoe, st into her smoke-house, took every piece of moat therefrom, and then departed. How long aro thoso-things to be endured." Kemna vr. On the afternoon of the 6th instant, the citi "gena of Camden were startled by the alarm of fire. The flamed were discovered in full head? way among some old, dry wooden buildings in rear of the prinoipal bust naas part of the town. The fire companies and the citizens generally turned ont in tall force, and put forth tbe most Strenuous and well directed efforts to arrest the progress of the destructive element. For .ome time the teano nf the contest was doubt ' tal, the fire barning fier eely, close in the rear of several stores. But at the moat critical moment, tho wind sprang from a favorable quarter, blowing the flames front the buildings moat in danger, and enabled the firemen to get them ander their control. The fire is thought to have originated ina stable in the rear of the building owned by Mr. William Johnson. It is fortunate that the fire occurred when it old, ancVburnt np what has long been a source of apprehension to many. If if had broken out at night, when the wind was high, tho con? sequences might baye been ruinous. As it stroyed property of any f"re?fc value ww de Greenville. fciinSi?tndrt?0,rn,iuiE?

Jool Foster, proposes to try a fair experiment on tho new ramio plant. Ho has purchased a number of these plants, and we hopo is thus preparing a no w ape?les of labor aud profit for our people. This plant is entiroly now to ns, and perhana your read? ers may bo glad to have euch information as wo have been able to gather aa to its his? tory, lt belongs, like the hemp and the nettlo, to the Urticacoo, its botanical name being Boehmerla tenacessima. It waB brought from Java to Paris in 1814, and raised as a hot-house plant by tho Naturalist Blume. A. few years after Mr. Kozel, President of tba Horticultural Institute of Belgium, determined to iutroduoe it to some Southern congenial climate. Ho went to Java and spent a year to study its nature and cul? ture. While on his way to Mexico City with a supply of roots, he was robbed by Mexican banditti of his treasures. Several attompts wore made to replace thom boforo he succeeded in getting a new supply as far as England, whore tho roots were oared for in a hot house, to give them strength for a long .voyage. At last in 1859, he succeeded in Rotting a supply of roots, and within two years was the owner of a thriving plantation. He invented suitable machinery, by wbioh tho BfalkB were con? verted within twenty-four hours after cutting into long skeins of pure white and silk-like fibres, roady for spinning. He makes in Mexico five crops in ono year. The matured plant, which is perennial, attains, when well rootod, the height of twenty foot. Its fibre is said to bo stronger than hemp, aiul as fino and white, and twice as durable as linen, and more productivo than cotton. In 1865, Mr. RozeJ exported to England over 5000 pounds, which ho sold >?t double the price of tho best quality of cotton. A year ago bo visited Cuba with specimens which attracted great attention from tho planters thcre.who thought this now article might supplant tboir staples, susar and coffee. We understand the new spring goods for ladies' wear. Leno (?), is in part made from this now textile fabric, so that our ladies can judge of its cheapness, comfort and durability compar? ed with cotton. Cheaper food, oheapor lodg? ing, and cheaper clothing, aro threo pressing wants of our day. PorhapB tho third of those ha s been found iu ramie. Commercial. Charleston Cotton and lilee Market.
