Bettor than Gold.
Better than grandeur, better than gold,
Than rank and titles a thousand fold,
Is a healthy body, a mind at ease,
And simple pleasures that alway? please;
A heart that can feel foranother's woe,
And share his joys with a genial glow,
With sympathies large enough to enfold
Al' men as brothers, is better than gold.
better than gold is a conscience clear,
Though toiling for broad in an bambie
sphere,
Doubly blest with content and health,
Untried by the lust or cares of wealth;
Lowly living and lofty thought
Adorn and ennoble a poor man's cot,
For mind and morah? in nature's plan
Aro tho genuine test of a gentleman.
bettor than gold is the sweet repose
Of thc sons of toil when their labors close:
Better than gold is the poor man's sleep
And the balm that drops on his slumbers
deep.
Bring sleeping draughts to the downy bed
Where luxury pillows his aching hoad,
His simple opiate labor deems
A shorter road to tho land of dreams.
Better than'gold is a thinking mind,
That in the realm of books can find
A treasure surpassing Australian ore,
And live with the great and good of yore
Tho sage's lore and tho poet s lay;
Thc glories of empire passed away,
The world's great drama will thus unfold
And yield a pleasure better than gold.
Better than gold is a peaceful home,
Where all the fireside charities come,
The shrine of love, the heaven of Ufo,
Hallowed by mother, or sister, or wife.
However humble tho home may be,
Oi tried with sorrow by Heaven's decree.
Th "> blessings that never were bought or
sold,
But centre there, are better than gold.

OF THE SOUTH.
THE undersigned, WHOLESALE DEAL?
ERS, advise yon of thc fact that
Charleston is again a market for the pur?
chase of goods; and in view of tho early
opening of the Spring Trade, wo beg to
solicit tho resumption of the patronage so
liberally extended to this market in the
past. Wo are aware that many old and
respected firms will bc missed from our
nuufcer, but many familiar names win" be
found in new associations, ready to supply
the wants of the trado as of yore, and other
old and new firms will be added to our
number at an early day.
The cash and short credit system having
been universally adopted in all the North?
ern markets, we are necessarily compelled
to adopt a like system as tho only Safe one
on which to conduct business, ami thc
heavy uer ccntage once necessary to cover
bad detits will now be avoided. Small pro?
fits and quick returns will be thc rule, and
under its working ive hope not only to
restore to our ancient city its former pros?
perity, but to extend her" trade to tho full
extent Of the capabilities her excellent
geographical position and natural ad*
tages afford. Our interest and ambition
combine to stimulate us in attaining this
result.
The South Carolina Railroad is now open
to Columbia, and its President has officially
informed u*s that the Augusta linc will bo
completed to Blackville this month, and
that on the first of February he will receive
through freight to Augusta. A line of
steamers to Savannah will afford facilities
for shipping in that direction. It is our
purpose to have in store, by the last of
February, a complete and varied assort?
ment of goods in our respective, lines
adapted to the Spring Trade, a rill every
exertion shall be made to promote your
interests.
We extend to you the hand of commer?
cial fellowship, and solicit your co-opera?
tion and patronage in our efforts to make
Charleston the centre of Southern trade.
Give us tho encouragement we ask, fine
you will enjoy all ibo advantages of a cheap
homo market.

THE ONLY RECOGNIZED DEMOCRATIC
NEWSPAPER PUBLISHED IN NEW
YORK, DAILY, SEMI-WEEK?
LY AND WEEKLY.
TO THE PUBLIC.
THE NEW YORK NEWS HAS BATTLED
against despotism for four years of j
blood and terror, in assertion of th" sane
tity of tho Constitution. A patriotism
sufficiently broad to embrace both sections
has been its onlv guide, and it refers now ]
with honest pride to ita record to show that
it nas not turned to tho right ur tho left
under all the violence of arbitrary power, j
True to its principles as THE N*EWS has
been through the reign of terror, it ebal
leng68 public confidence in its honesty and
independence for tho future.
Tho political transition of the present
day opens to THE NEWS a nev and wider j
field of usefulness. Standing now, as it :
always has, on the inviolability of the Con- |
stitntion, according to tho interpretation of
tho strict constructionists, it presents a !
rallying ground for all, in both sections, I
who are friends of a generous conservatism.
As a true and tried exponent of scctioiVal
amity, it occupies a position which makes it ;
tho titting mediator in holding up to tho !
party of order, in both sections, interests j
and principles that gave breadth and vi?
tality to their alliance. As an intersec- ;
Monal agent, devoted to freedom of elec- i
tion, to trial by jury, to the sanctity of thc |
habeas corpus, anil opposed now, as for ?
four years of terror it has been, to tho cen- i
tralization that dares to trample on the j
rights of States, North or South, THE !
NEWS places itself as a candidate for sup- i
port before the great body of this once free ;
people. ,
Tho circumstances of the moment maka i
the dissemination of the principles of THE |
NEWS a duty of individual patriotism. I
Every man who concurs ia its doctrine j
must, if he entertain a true sense of free- {
dom, do BO in no spirit of indifference, but i
rather with the earnestness of a high trust, j
Justified, nay bound, in his lovoof liberty,
to do so,the proprietor places the canvass lie j
makes herc Qt tho pnbl?fi g?;t?;7,"}|'.'" !P-H?fv
hands "of those men who give him the ap?
proval of their consciences as hi? individual I
agents. Every; reader of THE NEWS cannot I
avoid the conviction of dutv which is here ?
poin'ted out as the ground of the request,
that lie urges its claims for a wider support
upon all ot his friend? and neighbors who
i give their earnest sympathies to the cause
; of "strict construction. ' intersectional con?
ciliation, and all the rights of tho citizens
under the system set up hy our fathers of
; liberty regulated by law. " Thc proprietor
of Tun NEWS calls,' therefore, upon good
.and true Conservatives throughout tin
country, to diseharge. to their convictions
of political right at this great crisis in the
country's fortunes, the duty of giving to
the influence of bis paper, daily, semi?
weekly or weekly, the wider power for good
which it seeks herc through tho service of
its individual supporters.
